San Onofre Nuclear Substation Closed Permanently
After an 18 month state of temporary shut down status, Southern California Edison has formally announced the permanent shut down of their San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station. According to an Orange County Register article, the plant was temporarily put offline due to a small radioactive gas leak in January 2012. Edison's spokespeople state "…We have concluded that the continuing uncertainty about when or if SONGS might return to service was not good for our customers, our investors, or the need to plan for our region's long-term electricity needs."
Read the full Orange County Register article here
"Its not clear how this shortfall will be mitigated and how the immediate and increased needs of Californians will be met. The California Public Utilities Commission said it will work with governments to ensure Southern California has enough electricity, which will require increased energy efficiency and conservation during peak usage, as well as upgrades to transmission and generation resources. Guess who will pay for it?
Prior to the recent announcement to close San Onofre the California Utilities Commission had already approve rate increases which will cost customers more money for the same amount of power. Be a producer instead of a consumer."

The Department for Theology and Public Witness guides the theological, ecumenical and interfaith work of the LWF. We take the lead in strengthening gender justice and advocacy across the whole communion.
We coordinate preparations on the journey to commemorations of the 500th anniversary of the Lutheran Reformation in 2017 and nurture the worship life of the communion.
We are engaged in the vital theological questions of today alongside our member churches, theological institutions, World Service country programs and partner organizations. We draw on the theological expertise of our constituency, providing a unique space for academic theologians, church leaders and activists to discern issues of common concern across different contexts and regions.
We act as a think tank on issues of global concern. In this task, we look to ensure that local and regional experiences in the areas of theology, ecumenical and interreligious relations, advocacy and gender justice are heard at the global level.
Theology & Dialogue
The Reformation lives on. When we commemorate the 500th anniversary of the Lutheran Reformation in 2017, it will be global and ecumenical, but will also illustrate our continuing search for renewal
The Bible is central. Since Lutherans live in diverse settings, we offer tools to understand Scripture in a way that speaks to local contexts and connects to people's identity in our global communion.
Religion matters. So when we do development and human rights work around the globe, we make sure we understand what resources we have as Lutherans to help create a more just and peaceful world
We are ecumenical. Because Lutherans are committed to the unity of the Church, we talk to sisters and brothers of other Christian traditions in various dialogues, and work together collaboratively
Our neighbor's faith can be different. As Lutherans in a pluralistic world, we seek to build bridges. We dialogue with people of other faith to create trust and strengthen work for justice and peace
Speak out for those denied their rights. When Lutherans affirm human dignity and promote economic, social, and eco-justice, advocacy is crucial. We must be a voice for the vulnerable and oppressed
No junk. Just the latest LWF news.

Top 5 Things You Need to Know for the runDisney Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend
Last year we brought you the Walt Disney World Marathon Preview and Tips in the weeks leading up to your race(s) at Walt Disney World. This year we're stepping up our game by giving you the five things you need to know to have a Dopey filled Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend!
So let's get down to it…
5) Pack More Than You Think You'll Need
You should already have begun packing especially if you're coming out to celebrate New Years Eve at the parks before the race weekend. Make sure you have plenty of park clothes and comfortable shoes. Many of our readers will be running some major miles this weekend and the last thing you'll want is feet that hurt from walking around the parks.
It's also important that you pack for all types of weather this time of year in Florida. We've run multiple races during this weekend and they have been completely different each time. We've had temperatures in the thirties to pouring down rain to extreme heat. You'll never know what you'll get, so make sure you have plenty of outfit choices to choose from. Bonus tip: The backside of the half marathon course sends you down World Drive. At this time of year, many of you will be running directly into the sun. It is a good idea, if possible, to consider a pair of sunglasses or a hat with a brim on it that compliments your race costume to help shield your eyes, you'll thank me for this one.
For the marathon course you may want to consider this as well. Running on Osceola Drive can put you in direct sunlight too.
4) Survive the Expo
The Expo will be insane on opening day…imagine Black Friday with all runDisney items. Get there hours before open or wait until the next day to go! Unless you have a special piece of merchandise you're seeking out there is no need to go to the expo on the first day unless you're running the 5K or Dopey. The expo opens Wednesday January 3rd at 12pm and crowds will thin out as the weekend goes on. Of course, if you want to go at the opening of the first day for the thrill of the hunt or the entertainment value, have at it!
Also remember this is an anniversary year for the Marathon and Dopey, which hopefully means some awesome merchandise. It also means it will be in demand merchandise especially for those who are perfect Dopeys. I highly advise if you are running Dopey and want merchandise you should be at ESPN's Wide World of Sports before 10am to try to get to the front of the line.
Check out our tips for surviving a runDisney race expo.
3) Running Isn't the Hardest Part of the Weekend
Anyone who has run multiple races in one weekend at Walt Disney World will tell you running isn't the hardest part of the weekend. The hardest part is by far the early morning wake up calls. Depending on where you're staying and/or extent of elaborate costumes many people are getting up at 2:30am for a 5:30am race. As a former Dopey runner I promise the hardest part of 48.6 miles is getting up at 3am four days in a row.
For the half marathon and marathon there is a good half a mile walk to the start line. It is highly advised you be to the pre race area an hour before starting time. The 5K and 10K start where the pre race party is so getting there a half hour before starting time should be good.
It appears this year at least for the half marathon and marathon there will be waves starts in each coral. It's impossible to know where they will separate people in their corals to let them start the race. If you're concerned about finishing the race before the balloon ladies I would suggest getting to your coral as soon as it opens to make sure you are in the first wave of people that get to go.
Know your body and how much sleep you need before a race. It's fun to stay out playing in the parks from rope drop to fireworks but the night before a half marathon or marathon I highly advise against doing this.
2) Characters Galore
One of the best parts of running at Disney are all of the photo opportunities. Not only can you get a photo in front of all the park icons but there are so many characters along the course!
There are some rare photo opportunities on race courses that can never be found anywhere else. In the past I've seen Jack, Sally, and Oogie Boogie all together, all the villains in one location, and even George Sanderson from Monster's Inc (and no we don't mean our favorite CosRunner, Jake).
Character lines can get very long on the course, which can lead to you being swept if you wait in too many of them. Pick and choose wisely. Unless I see a stop I absolutely want I tend to hold off on stopping for pictures until I get past ESPNs Wide World of Sports. At this point there is less than ten miles left and I can figure out if my stops will still allow me to finish.
1) SMO Celebration!
Wear your medals to the parks!
Embrace the clank (that all-too-familiar sound where your multiple race medals clank against one another as you walk around the parks). A great fast pass to make is at Epcot to meet Mickey and friends so you can get pictures with the characters featured on the medals. If you're running Dopey make sure to get your pictures before and after the races at the start and finish lines because that will be your only chance to do so.
Our good friend Jason had an excellent idea last year for character photos that made it so he didn't have to walk around a park or wait in lines. He decided to made a Chef Mickey reservation that featured all the medal characters (besides Dopey). This meant less time on his feet after the races.
Bonus Tip – Cigna Runs Together
We feel it is important to let all of our readers heading to Florida all about the Walt Disney World Marathon Race Weekend sponsor, Cigna.
Cigna does an excellent job of hosting this weekend. Make sure you check out their booth at the expo to "Know Your Numbers." They also tend to have some great freebies at their expo booth as well.
Cigna Runs Together is not just another catchy hashtag. Many Cigna employees run the events during the race weekend. Don't worry you'll be able to spot them along the course with their matching shirts! We have found them to be awesome support along the course to their fellow runners, so much so that we felt the need to make them our bonus tip for the weekend.
Make sure to check back in the weeks to come as we share with you Cigna's tips for Nutrition, Training Tips, and Preventive Care.
I look forward to seeing all of my favorite Dopey runners soon! If you see Mike or myself out there make sure you say hi! You may see me at all four races in matching costumes with Helene and Ashley.
We have even more great articles to get you ready to run during Walt Disney World's Marathon Weekend!

Birch was born at Litchurch, Derby in 1859, the second of eleven
children of an iron moulder George Birch (1831-1915) and Emma Oakley
(1836-1882). Like his father, he worked as an iron moulder as a
young man. The 1891 Census, however, describes him as an "artist
- crayon." A decade earlier, he had been living at 17 Babington
Lane, and it is possible
Frank Birch worked as a photographer in Derby from 1894 until at least 1903. Initially, he worked briefly from a studio at 52 Friargate (1894) but, according to Adamson (1997), took over a studio at Bramble Street from Edwin/Edward Smith later that year, and remained there until about 1898. He then moved to premises located at Nag's Head Yard, 64 St Peter's Street. He is shown at this address in Kelly's Trade Directory for 1899 (probably compiled in larte 1898) and in the 1901 Census. In 1903, Birch became manager of the Derby Stereoscopic Company, located at 36 Victoria Street, and appears to have ceased trading under his own name from this time.

Nani Roma the fastest AXION X-raid Team driver today
Today's special stage proved to be extremely difficult and jumbled the overall standings completely. Having rolled, Nasser Al-Attiyah (QAT) and Mathieu Baumel (FRA) had to settle for finishing 14th but due to the problems of Peugeot's Carlos Sainz they moved up to second place in the overall standings, nevertheless. The MINI ALL4 Racing pairing Mikko Hirvonen (FIN) / Michel Périn (FRA) finished 16th, thus defending their fourth position overall. Meanwhile, it was a great day for Nani Roma and Alex Haro (both ESP) who finished fourth. Other than many of their rivals, they completed the stage virtually without any mistakes and as a result, they leaped to seventh position overall, just 18 seconds behind the sixth-placed pairing. Orlando Terranova / Ronnie Graue encountered another difficult day and had to settle for finishing 26th.
Tomorrow's stage 11 will take the field from La Rioja to San Juan and keeps any kind of sand ready: soft, hard, Fech Fech. At the same time, the 431-kilometre special stage also will feature several riverbeds. Altogether, the competitors will have to cover 712 kilometres.

How Big is Your Garage?
Probably not big enough if you're an Alaskan whose penchant for big trucks ranks them at the top of truck ownership on a per capita basis amongst our 50 states. After 5 pm, you can see trucks parked in driveways and along every residential street in Anchorage. Twenty-two feet long with double cabs, four doors and extended beds with heavy duty trailer hauling systems, they don't fit in most garages.
Over the years, Anchorage has evolved from its tent city roots and small ranch homes with no garages to the covered carport of the 1960's, the single car garage of the 1970's, to the double car garage of the 1980's, the triple car garage in the 1990's to the mega garage of today. A single car garage is a minimum 10 x 18 and a double car 20 x 20. However, some of that square footage is almost always taken up with one or two steps into the main living area as well as space for the hot water heater, furnace and in older homes even the washer/dryer. And so, the truck gets parked in the drive-way.
In Anchorage, a larger garage has risen to the top of the new home buyer's move-up list of 'must haves'. Today's garages are heated, sheet rocked and even have textured and painted walls, the same as the interior of the home. They have windows, a plethora of electrical outlets and space for the freezer full of salmon/moose/caribou, the dog washing sink, the workshop for wood working, the Harley Davidson and the 1960 Chevy. For some home owners, the garage is as important as the kitchen and has become for others its own 'great room' or 'man cave' and well furnished with large screen TVs and theater surround sound, a small frig for beer and even a bar.
And therein lies the problem. The contemporary garage has all of the amenities of the finished interior of a new home but lacks in valuation. The cost to build the garage is now almost identical to the cost of the interior of the home. It has a roof, walls, foundation, mechanical, electrical, built-ins, et cetera. It lacks only hardwood or carpet flooring. However, appraisers value it far less on a per square foot basis than the rest of the home. Today's garage can be as large as 700 to 1,000 square feet and fully finished. If the average price of new construction is now $200 per square foot, that's a lot of missed value, even if the builder gives it to the buyer at his cost. In most lower '48 communities, the garage area is calculated as part of the square footage of the home. However, in Alaska we only give full value to the interior living areas and our local Multiple Listing Service (MLS) and appraisers separate the two areas. MLS will list the price per square foot of the home without regard to the size of the garage. Potential buyers and realtors use price per square foot as a moniker of value and rank homes using this method. With the increasing importance of an Alaskan size garage, that's a strategic error in establishing value, particularly since the garage level is almost always on the first floor which is the most expensive to construct and is given the greatest value.
There are many factors that contribute to the overall value of a home but in Alaska the garage stands out as being the most under-valued and very often the most sought after item in today's market. It's size and dimensions will have a significant impact on your home value today and tomorrow. There's no doubt that the mega garage is here to stay, along with Alaskans' love affair with their trucks and toys.

What if eating a low-fat, whole grain diet to prevent or heal heart disease, which is advocated by the American Heart Association, is a lie? What if eating whole grains is the reason why you are overweight, have heart disease or diabetes? Dr. William Davis, Cardiologist and author of the New York Times #1 Bestseller, Wheat Belly, discusses his unique approach to diet where he advocates reversal, not just prevention, of heart disease. Dr. Davis discusses his findings of eliminating wheat and other grains from the diet. The results that his patients and many others experience include weight loss, reversal of heart disease and curing diabetes, obesity, rheumatoid arthritis, skin disease, cancer and other diseases. Dr. Davis states that he believes that by eliminating grains from your diet, almost 80% of disease would be eradicated. Click on the link below to listen to this fascinating interview:

There are a number of functions in these cabinets that allow to achieve optimum results when preparing various kinds of dishes and its control system makes it possible to produce different types of thermal treatment of products in accordance to the given by operator parameters of humidity and temperature. Thus, the use of fermentation cabinet ensures the automatic control of acidity directly during the cooking process. High quality of the finished production is provided by the uniform distribution of air flows inside the cabinet. The possibility of refrigerating is also enabled in the cabinets of fermentation, that gives the opportunity to carry out a delayed fermentation during proofing, and also provides timely shut-down of fermentation in the production of dairy products.

[tweetmeme source="pagetx"]I've been a fan of Lisa Barone (@lisabarone) and her work for some time now. If you've ever read her posts on the Outspoken Media blog, you'll already know why. She's a prolific writer, and provides posts that are easy to understand and tips that are easy to implement. While her depth of knowledge of all things online seems to know no limits, her most interesting and useful posts to me are about blogging, branding, online marketing, small business marketing, and social media. Plus, she cracks me the hell up.
I'm an RSS subscriber to the Outspoken Media blog, as well as the Small Business Trends blog which she also writes for. Basically, I hope to write like her when I grow up (never mind that I'm older than her). She has a "no BS" style and a sense of humor that makes me laugh out loud in my cube farm at work. She's engaging and makes me want to keep reading.
I've chatted with her casually on Twitter a few times, regularly retweet her, and she kindly let me re-post one of her articles in a newsletter I write for work. But in all the time I've been reading her blog, I've never left a comment. Until a few weeks ago.
One day I finally felt like I could contribute to the conversation and not look like a dork. I don't remember now the sage comment I left, but I do remember thanking her for inspiring me to get off my ass and buy the domain for this blog. Lisa responded and I was on Cloud 9. But that wasn't even the best part. The best part was what happened after I hit "submit".
What popped up on my screen was a "thank you" message. It was so simple and yet so well done that I felt like I needed to share it.
This stuck with me for four reasons:
- She gets it. Lisa makes it clear she understands that leaving comments on someone's blog post can be difficult for some of us, and leaves us feeling encouraged to do it again.
- She says thank you. And means it.
- Lisa welcomes us into her community as an active participant.
- She makes it easy to get more information by posting links to Outspoken Media's various social sites.
Update – October 13, 2011
My friend Betsy Decillis also has a cool "thanks for commenting" feature on her blog. What I absolutely LOVE about the thank you from Betsy is that it really shows her personality (as does Lisa's). Which, if you've read any of Betsy's tweets, will make total sense to you. Betsy is dead funny and will say pretty much anything. Her "thank you" response reflects the joie de vivre that Betsy puts out there every day. Enjoy!

I was very happy to be able to feature Scott in this blog. He is not only a great personal friend, but a poet whose work I have admired and enjoyed for a long time. His words are moving, full of meaning, and often evoke a sense of familiarity with shared human experience. I asked him to write a brief reflection on the shoot we did.
"I wrote some of my first real poems in Claremont. The courtyard in this photo set is like the places I would go to when I ditched my high school classes and smoked cigarettes while I evaded Claremont PD (which is harder than it sounds, they don't have much to do). It's amongst the places where I made my first attempts at writing about the forces that seemed to lurk below the pretty surface of things. That's the direction I've tried to take my work ever since. I want to catalogue what might otherwise be forgotten or unnoticed. Despite the immense privilege they represent, the campuses of the five colleges have always seemed a bit dark and occult. You can feel the prestige and secrets and symbolism of the place, you can sense the lives that have passed through here, and that's always been something that's intrigued me. Having grown up in Pomona, where gentrification or neglect often overwrite the past fairly quickly, this was a place that fascinated me when I was a teenager because you could feel both the history the powers-that-be wanted you to see, and then, below that, you could also sense some of the secret history of the place -- the fact that people ate and made love here, that they got high and cut classes.
For me, writing is about cataloguing place as much as it is people. For a while, at least, we leave the remnants of our ideas upon a place -- We become part of it, it holds some existential echo of us, and we carry a bit of it when we leave. I used to hang out in a haunted stairwell near where these photos were taken. The folklore is that this was where a Scripps college student jumped to her death from the top flight, vaulting over the bannister and then crashing into the courtyard. The students say that her spirit roams around the halls and offices there. They say that you can sometimes catch a glance of her in the mirror of a tiny, forgotten bathroom on the third floor.
Even before I knew the story of the place, I felt it. Maybe I noticed the way people hurried through it, or the sad art around the place. Maybe it was something else. Regardless, there was something there beyond the ordinary physicality of the architecture, or the garden, or the artwork dedicated to regents -- The place was made into a story by the people who inhabited it, and that makes it fascinating to me.
Now I carry the ghost of that girl with me to all the places I've lived in. Even decades later, I often think about her in the still hours of the morning, and she makes me wonder about the stories under my feet, about the ways all of us haunt the world. Most of my writing is about unearthing those stories and preserving them, so this seemed like an excellent place to take photos that might represent some small piece of who I am as a poet. "
Scott Noon Creley holds an MFA in poetry from California State University, Long Beach, and a BA in writing from UC Riverside. His work has been featured in the collections Bear Flag Republic, One Night in Downey, Cadence Collective: Year Two and , as well as in quality journals as diverse as Sentence, Miramar, Spillways, Cadence Collective and Carnival Literary Magazine. His most recent book Digging a Hole to the Moon debuted in the top 50 on Amazon.com's poetry section.
He recently returned from China, where he read for Beijing Normal University, the Lu Xun Literary Institute, and Yunnan University as a featured visiting reader alongside Pulitzer Prize winner Gregory Pardlo and Pushcart Prize winner Tony Barnstone. He is the founding chairman of San Gabriel Valley Literature Festival inc., a non-profit literacy foundation that holds monthly free writing workshops, monthly readings, and an annual community literature festival.
He is one of the Writers in Residence for The dA Center for the Arts in Pomona, California.
His collection Digging a Hole to the Moon, is available from Spout Hill Press.
He lives with his wife, painter & photographer Carly McKean Creley, in Los Feliz.
A poem of his appears below.
Ashes, White Noise
by Scott Noon Creley
It is Ash Wednesday.
The children who walk by the window
have crosses smeared over their foreheads
in the thick pigment of burned palm fronds.
Those sigils are so rigid, so geometric -
Trailing down the sidewalk like a long line
of precisely punctuated speech,
a message that, for all its coherency
I cannot grasp before it trails out of view
around the corner.
Turning on the radio,
I want to listen long enough
to extract this same voice
from the ghost orchard of static,
my fingers twitching
at every tinny scrap of sound.
Here, with the blinds drawn,
with the glow of the television
pervading the room and mingling
with the blue onset of early twilight
it is easy to envy those children their markings —
to hunger for the dead black certainty of them.

Divorce will never be an easy topic for discussion. Even if it's one of the most popular statistics getting thrown around movies and books, it doesn't make the experience any less painful and damaging. But it also can't be denied that divorce happens, and you need to be able to deal with it to move on with your life.
Yes, it's much easier said than done, but if you take small steps, you'll be very surprised at what you can accomplish. In light of helping you through this difficult process, here are some small steps you can follow.
Make Peace Instead Of War
Nothing quite says "final" like a divorce, but in reality, it's never "final". Thanks to all the legal issues involved, there might still be some connection with the ex.
For example, if there are kids involved, custody will most likely become an issue. There's also the matter of sharing property or business investments.
But when it comes to kids, it's important to keep the divorce as low-key as possible. It's typically a very tough time for them, and the last thing they need is getting dragged into a complicated fight that they can't control. In other words, it means communicating with clarity and understanding while negotiating demands.
Do You Need A Lawyer Or Mediator?
Just because you're getting divorced doesn't mean you have to bring lawyers into this. In fact, if you can settle without legal complications, it saves money, time and prolonged pain.
However, if you feel a neutral third party should be involved to make sure the divorce is handled fairly, a mediator can be contracted. This doesn't have to be anybody specific, as long as the people involved trust their final judgment.
If these options don't work, you should probably seek the advice of a lawyer or speak to a qualified trusted family mediator.
When A Divorce Turns Ugly
In a perfect world, divorces wouldn't exist. Or at least, they wouldn't get as ugly as they sometimes do. But this isn't a perfect world, and sometimes you can't control the situation as much as you like.
When a divorce happens, and you've ruled out the possibility of settling the matter peacefully, you need to protect yourself via a good divorce lawyer. He or she will look out for your interests, and they will also handle custody matters if necessary.
Choosing The Right Divorce Lawyer
To find the best divorce lawyers, start by asking friends and family. As negative as it sounds, they might now a lawyer that's more than capable of handling the case.
The second way to find the best lawyer is to schedule consultations. Through these consultations you get to ask all the questions, you deem relevant, and it will give you a better idea of which lawyer is best suited for you.
Pay Attention To Billing
Last but not least, get clarity on the way the lawyer is going to bill you for their time, and what it's going to cost. Every lawyer will have his or her way of doing things, so pay attention to this part.

Musical Consultant to the Bicester Learning Academy, Mr Brian Dipple, has recently returned from a rewarding trip to Bosnia where he worked in schools in and around Tuzla (the third city of Bosnia). The project is one of cooperation between the Public Institution Primary School, Pasci and Professor of Music, Mr Dipple, who has long been a friend of the Bosnian Educational Institutions involved. This is the latest of many visits and projects he has coordinated.
Mr Dipple first started work on the project with pupils/students from Years 4 to 10 at The Bicester Learning Academy. The children worked hard together on a musical project entitled, "Footsteps In The Snow". The next phase of the project was to work in the five schools in and around Tuzla, culminating in a vibrant and well attended concert in the Bosnian Cultural Centre. As part of the event, Mr Dipple presented a cheque for 1000 Euros to the Pasci School to help with the development of a sports outdoor area.
Both The Cooper School and Glory Farm Primary School have received certificates of appreciation for the music project and the donation. Director of the Pasci School, Elvir Fejzic, stated, "It is hoped that this will help towards the construction of a sports polygons branch school in Gornju, Pasco, attended by 170 students. With this donation, we have 6,000 KMs, while for the rest of the construction the total needed is 20,000 KMs [KMs are their local currency]
The finale to the project was the presentation of the international musical project called "The Steps In The Snow."
In Tulza, students of the Secondary Chemical School and primary schools, Prokasovici, Lancaster Village, Klokotnica, Brijesnice and guest performers and students of the Music High School in Tuzla, with the help of Mr Dipple, in composing musical works to present to the audience at the Bosnian Cultural Centre.
The objective was to improve playing rhythmic and melodic instruments and the vocal abilities of students as well as encourage precise intonation and proper diction.
Mr Dipple explained, "Through the workshop, students were encouraged to develop a musical memory and taught to make an aesthetic judgement on their own part of the composition". Almira Berbić, teacher of music culture in the Primary School Pasci, said "Involvement in this project will not only underline the students' previous knowledge but also help them to acquire new musical skills in composition, accompaniment & improvisation".

Rockbox mail archiveSubject: low-fi mp3s
From: John Donahue (john.donahue_at_excite.com)
Date: 2004-02-29
I've been recording some old 78rpm albums to .wavs(CDquality) and then converting those to low fi, 16kbps mp3s through MusicMatch. Examination in Mp3DirectCut shows them to be mpeg2.5,layer3, 16kbps, 11kHz Mono.
They sound great that is on software players, musicmatch, mediaplayer, directCut, but on the archos(i have FMrecorder) and on a CDmp3 player(AudioPhase) there's that high tone of constant pitch accompanying the intended sound. There's no other sound difference - otherwise it's just as clear as the software players except the tinny whine. The music's midrange frequencies seem to bring it out most.
What's the difference between the softwares' method of playback and rockbox's? I noticed that I can create the problem in Windows MediaPlayer by changing the frequency quality in the filter properties from 'full' to 'half'.
Is it possible to improve the playback for files in this 8-32k range? or is it an mpeg2.5 issue that cannot be fixed through firmware?
I posted some sine wav examples and a James P Johnson tune for examination at: http://kentucky.home.att.net
Thanks for any help and info,

I know this is an aside, but I really enjoyed the dog as companion and allayer of fear.
She became almost as much of a peacemaker, a smoother-down of rough interludes, an allayer of irritating ebullitions, as Dora was wont to be at home.
In many of the same ways "The Cosby Show" did, it does double duty as both an allayer of white guilt ( "he's just like us") and an image makeover for black communities that resent their monolithic reputation for absentee fatherhood.

I was in Holland some days ago and it was noticeable that the Dutch are a clear-thinking, organised and rational people. A friend whom I admire very much sent me the following and I reproduce it here in its entirety. In the manner of 'The Canterbury Tales', Erasmus of Rotterdam comments – not very flatteringly – on his companions on a pilgrimage to Walsingham. We sometimes require more of our fellow-pilgrims than they are perhaps capable of giving.
|Hans Holbein "Erasmus of Rotterdam" 1523 National Gallery, London
Desiderius Erasmus, 1466-1536
Erasmus stands as the supreme type of cultivated common sense applied to human affairs. He rescued theology from the pedantries of the Schoolmen, exposed the abuses of the Church, and did more than any other single person to advance the Revival of Learning.
From The Praise of Folly (1509)
The merchants are the biggest fools of all. They carry on the most sordid business and by the most corrupt methods. Whenever it is necessary, they will lie, perjure themselves, steal, cheat, and mislead the public. Nevertheless, they are highly respected because of their money. There is no lack of flattering friars to kowtow to them, and call them Right Honourable in public. The motive of the friars is clear: they are after some of the loot. . . .
. . . After the lawyers come the philosophers, who are reverenced for their beards and the fur on their gowns. They announce that they alone are wise and that the rest of men are only passing shadows. . . . The fact that they can never explain why they constantly disagree with each other is sufficient proof that they do not know the truth about anything. They know nothing at all, yet profess to know everything. They are ignorant even of themselves, and are often too absent-minded or near-sighted to see the ditch or stone in front of them. . . .
. . . Perhaps it would be wise to pass over the theologians in silence. That short-tempered and supercilious crew is unpleasant to deal with. . . . They will proclaim me a heretic. With this thunderbolt they terrify the people they don't like. Their opinion of themselves is so great that they behave as if they were already in heaven; they look down pityingly on other men as so many worms. A wall of imposing definitions, conclusions, corollaries, and explicit and implicit propositions protects them. They are full of big words and newly-invented terms. . . .
. . . Next to the theologians in happiness are those who commonly call themselves the religious and monks. Both are complete misnomers, since most of them stay as far away from religion as possible, and no people are seen more often in public. They are so detested that it is considered bad luck if one crosses your path, and yet they are highly pleased with themselves. They cannot read, and so they consider it the height of piety to have no contact with literature…. Most of them capitalise on their dirt and poverty by whining for food from door to door. . . . These smooth fellows simply explain that by their very filth, ignorance, boorishness, and insolence they enact the lives of the apostles for us. It is amusing to see how they do everything by rule, almost mathematically. Any slip is sacrilege, each shoe string must have so many knots and must be of a certain colour. . . . They even condemn each other, these professors of apostolic charity, making an extraordinary stir if a habit is belted incorrectly or if its colour is a shade too dark. . . . The monks of certain orders recoil in horror from money, as if it were poison, but not from wine or women. They take extreme pains, not in order to be like Christ, but to be unlike each other. Most of them consider one heaven an inadequate reward for their devotion to ceremony and traditional details. They forget that Christ will condemn all of this and will call for a reckoning of that which He has prescribed, namely, charity.
Ah, yes. Charity.
From a song I once used to sing…
If I speak with tongues of men and of angels
If I prophesy, and understand all
Though I have all faith for mountains to be removed
Though I feed the poor, and give up my life…
If I have not Charity
If I prophesy, and understand all
Though I have all faith for mountains to be removed
Though I feed the poor, and give up my life…
If I have not Charity
If love does not flow from me
I am nothing
Jesus, reduce me to love.

«Remote Galaxy» Op.81 | Digging Deeper
It is not often that the viola da gamba features as a solo instrument in contemporary music, and it is, perhaps, rather strange that so few composers today seem interested in the clean and delicate sound of this instrument, much loved and much used in baroque music. Flint Juventino Beppe is a musician who relishes going his own way and in «Remote Galaxy», where he takes us on a journey in sound, time and space, he chooses the viola da gamba, along with a glass harmonica, as his equipage, so to speak. In «Remote Galaxy» time has become an abstract and relative term. Since the galaxy is billions of light years away from us, we see it as it was billions of years ago; its present time is also its past time, and therefore in this context our own "now" becomes mind-bogglingly irrelevant. It is this profound philosophical standpoint, a hallmark of Beppe, that moulds a narrow, highly concentrated perception of sound at times chillingly cold, at times red hot. Beppe's music always embodies an element of dualism, more so in this particular composition than ever before.

Whole Body Cryotherapy
Whole Body Cryotherapy (WBC) offers numerous benefits. For athletes and others in training, WBC can relieve pain, decrease inflammation, speed recovery time, increase athletic performance, and reduce delayed onset muscle soreness. Additionally, WBC can relieve pain from chronic medical conditions such as arthritis and fibromyalgia, increase circulation, and reduce the symptoms of anxiety, depression, and insomnia.
Local Cryotherapy
Local Cryo treatments relieve chronic pain, decrease inflammation, and reduce swelling only in targeted areas using nitrogen-based technology. Unlike WBC, which triggers an internal systemic anti-inflammatory response in the body, Local Cryo is comparable to "icing," albeit much more powerful and efficient.
CryoFacial Treatment
Cryotherapy treatment used for facials is non-invasive, safe, and pain-free. Similar to local cryotherapy, facial treatments cool the skin rapidly with nitrogen-based technology for a younger and healthier skin.

If you have any questions please feel free to drop us a line.
CryoRush.com | 1st Cryotherapy Business Directory
Directories can be an effective way to gain stronger online presence, improve site rankings, online advertisement, and more, but only if your information is presented in an accurate way. Cryo Rush understands the difficulties facing cryo business owners when they create new listings in directories with hundreds of categories from which to choose, but unfortunately, not the one you need.
Cryo Rush is a simple and easy-to-use directory created specifically and exclusively for the Cryotherapy community. No longer do you need to list your cryo services under inaccurate categories that ultimately reduce your potential conversion rates and overall traffic. At Cryo Rush, we have created three categories for true Cryo fanatics: Whole Body Cryotherapy, Cryo Facials, and Local Cryotherapy. If you provide all three services, you can list your business under all three categories and increase your chances of being found by potential customers (terms and conditions may apply).

I'm a borderline crazy Christmas person. Having kids creates a new level of magic in that you are responsible for creating it and in return receive the pleasure of watching it all unfold.
This year we finally made it onto the historic 1880 Train's Holiday Express. The ride was out of Hill City, about halfway to Keystone you arrive at "The North Pole" and pick up Santa. On the way there they pass out delicious hot chocolate and sugar cookies. I was shocked at how good they were. After Santa boards the train he comes around and talks to each child while handing out silver sleigh bells. The cost isn't cheap but for under $100 for our family it was a special and you can't put a price on memories.
- You can bring food/drinks onto the train, we went on the 4:15 so I knew my boys would need more then a sugar cookie so I brought snacks in containers.
- The trains are mildly heated, meaning on a cold night you'll be comfortable but with your coat left on. Remember you don't get on the train without waiting in line outside and it's in Hill City which is probably a few degrees cooler than Rapid.
- The speaker system on the train is awful and with so many kids you are unlikely to hear what they are saying, therefor you'll want to read (or watch) The Polar Express before your ride.
- While it's a great ride for all ages, our 3 year old loved it the most so I'd say if you only plan on going once, wait for that 3-4 age range. Our 5 year old, who loves trains, had fun but was a little unimpressed afterwards.
- If your family has a busy schedule or you feel particular about the times book your tickets early, as in November or the first week of December.
- Take the train during the summer as well, it's a great experience.

I know you're in class right now and you're not listening, but if you just try and text in to WAVE your full name and "Master And Commander: The Far Side Of The World", you'd end up winning two tickets to the movie premiere of Alien Vs. Predator!
Needless to say, Carl won those tickets today... along with a two-day VIP pass to Bodyworx Fa and Spitness Club in West Avenue...
.:Hilarity Ensues:.
Kathy deserves more credit than she gets when it comes to reading people. She read certain guys like the back of her hand, from intentionalities to actual motivations. In any case, when I got to Sacha's house, it was quite apparent that she was still processing a lot of papers for her to get to Japan, so she wasn't around yet. Peppy and I were the earlybirds, and Kathy decided to ask us to take her to Eastwood as she wanted to re-negotiate her contract with Carlo, whom she actually found cute (But was not her type...).
While she was getting some stuff before heading out, I tried twirling the empty tube of Lay's Stax to get the hang of a reverse weave, and Peppy observed it with amusement...
Marcelle: It's a lot easier when it's stiff...
Peppy: I'm sure it is.
Marcelle: That's not what I meant, Peppy!!!
Peppy: What're you talking about?
Marcelle: The smile on your face...
Peppy: ... Lets me know that you need me?
.:Bargaining Power:.
We headed out to Eastwood and got there in good time. Soon enough, Dominique arrived and he got briefed on how the renegotiations were being planned. Dom was particularly looking like a genuine lawyer of sorts, and I found it impressive and all. Nonetheless, by the time Dominique got on the negotiating table, he was just tossing out terms that sounded risky, but he pulled them off. For instance, he upped the asking price of each performer to 1000 instead of 800 each, and Carlo didn't even bat an eyelash. It was as though he was lapping it all up or he deliberately spaced out on us.
Nonetheless, it didn't take long before we realized that while we're doing really fine, it's very likely that we won't end up getting a better deal for this month. It's still all good, though. When we left, Kathy started talking about introducing us to some "cute girl in Urdaneta" (I'm merely quoting her...), then steps back and says "you're not single", and yet not referring to me. Oh, well. In the end, I didn't quite find the hype to be good enough... but I digress. All that talk of "go straight" was particularly amusing, though.
.:The Birthday Girl:.
What's not to like about this picture?
When we got back to the Chua residence, things were beginning to get interesting. Sacha was there, and then tried on her Cheongsam, which was nothing short of gorgeous on her... nonetheless, Peppy and I ended up chopping the potatoes in lieu of Sach, as she sure wasn't dressed for that particular task. It was just fun, really. So there we were, conversing, and all, and then we suddenly just had to eat, as Mr. Chua decided to call it mealtime already. For the record, I loved Kathy's stew, though it obviously could've used some more spices, though that stuff was out of her hands already. Honestly, it's only now that I've been feeling rather at ease with Kathy. She's a genuinely great friend, who's street-smart and witty and brilliant in her own right.
Soon enough, Sean got there, then so did Carl, Erick, and Zeus. Dominique was the last to arrive, but he was the first to show up for the day, truth be told
We didn't make it to Cash and Carry as it was closed already when we scooted over there, but we passed by a Mini Stop and got ice cream from there instead. Sacha was mighty pleased. Ice cream has that effect on her. After a while, ice cream was served, and it wasn't long before Zeus then Dominique left (Sean already left after dinner...). This was of course after a special meeting with Mr. and Mrs. Chua regarding the future plans regarding spinning, especially the safety practices and the publicity we hoped to generate for the group. The discussions were particularly interesting, and then we started practicing with the poi again.
Yes, I can do the corkscrew consistently now, and I can also do the reverse weave now! Yay. Took me long enough to learn that trick...
.:The Moment:.
So after a while and some downtime in between all the storytelling and the spinning practice, I asked Sacha if she wanted to get her present already. While she was indeed getting a letter from me for her birthday, I decided to give her a little something more, and I went with her to my bag to get her the present. It was my copy of "I, Robot", which I'm sure she appreciated, especially since she's an Asimov fan, and she's seen the movie with me already.
Then we just had a moment that seemed to last an eternity. I was really happy that she liked the present, and it was fun how she kept on commenting that I was too tall. Nonetheless, it was really memorable, and by the time we went back down to the studio, it was as though nothing happened. But we know better...
What else is there to say? Sacha is simply a special friend who has made an indelible impact in my life... Little has been left unsaid, and I like it that way.
.:Spinning And Shooting:.
After more downtime, Sacha and Erick started trying to do a back to back spinning thing, where they lean back on one another. At one point, Erick nearly fell over Sacha because he was leaning too far back already. Soon enough, they just started doing all these athletic tricks like Chinese getups (My favorite trick. If I could do that, I'd be so happy.), cartwheels, and jumping over one's own leg. It was really fun... I was calling Erick a "mutant" for all of that... Sach then proceeded to dizzy herself several times while spinning around doing alternate forward and backward weaves. We had to hold her in place a couple of times...
The topic shifted to air guns and "Gotcha" or something similar, eventually. The cruelty to animals bit from Carl sort of freaked me out, but it was okay. I ended up having to console Sacha when Carl started talking about how his uncles spent their time shooting at stray cats... heh. Still, the shooting the rooster story was even worse, and worse than that was the empty air gun that Erick nearly blew his head off with. Apparently, the compressed air was so powerful, it took half of a chicken's face clean off when he shot it instead of himself... crazy people.
So why did Carl do that mean thing to the rooster? Well, this isn't revenge...

Kelly Osbourne admits her fashion sense has been influenced by 52-year-old pop star Madonna.
Kelly Osbourne's style has been influenced by Madonna "over the years".
The 26-year-old star is the face of the 'Celebration' hitmaker's clothing range Material Girl - which was created with her 14-year-old daughter Lourdes - and she admits she loves working on the brand because she has always been a fan of the 52-year-old singer's fashion sense.
She said: "I'm really enjoying being the face of Material Girl. I love being part of a brand for girls and having the opportunity to work with Lourdes who has an amazing fashion instinct.
"Added to that is the fact that Madonna has been an influence on my style over the years."
Discussing working with Kelly on the forthcoming MG+NYC collection, Madonna added it had been great.
She said: "We have both enjoyed working with Kelly and are thrilled to have her on board for the launch of The Fall 2011 collection."
The 'Fashion Police' presenter previously revealed she loves clothes which fit her frame and is glad to have lost 50lbs in 18 months.
She said: "Because I'm short - and I'm not calling myself fat when I say this, but I'm a rounder girl, I'm not a stick - I wear stuff that fits my curves.
"I've always dressed the same but before I wasn't able to fit into the clothes I wanted to. I just think I'm very me. I'm the girliest tomboy you'll ever meet."

With other development companies, they seem to only make cliché, cookie-cutter websites that look boring and unoriginal, and are limited by the Yahoo! System.

They exemplify what it means to be cutting-edge in terms of design and advanced functionality. Thank you guys, truly, for everything.
