Below is a link to my blog demonstrating how to build a layout for search based studies. Most bible software package are search based. They open with an interface that requires a search. Logos opens to a home page and then is primarily pericope based using the passage guide and exegetical guide. This is great for expository study, but there are times when a search based study is more appropriate. In this example I search for the greek word phileo. I hope this provides some ideas that you can incorporate into your use of Logos 4.
Great video John! I had no clue about the translit feature for searching. COOL!
Keep 'em comming! I don't think we could ever have enough LOGOS videos! I hope the Logos team eventually does some more in-depth videos like they had for V3. The 1-2 min videos are too quick!
Yes, John....nice video...I didn't know about the "translit" option.

Great video John! I had no clue about the translit feature for searching. COOL!
Yes, I'll add my voice to the chorus. Your videos are excellent! I feel like I'm finally learning Logos for the first time.
I never knew about the "translit" prefix for searching either (or the "g:" or "lemma:" ones either, for that matter; and I see too that "h:" does what you'd think it would, given what "g:" does). Are there others? Are these documented anywhere? I couldn't find them in Help or on the wiki. Does anyone have an exhaustive list and could you document them on wiki.logos.com? What about in the Search Fields List page? At least "lemma" appears in there, though I'm not sure it's where "g" and "h" and "translit" would belong. I guess some of this is documented in the Search HELP page, but it needs some cleaning up, as it's scattered around between points 10, 11 and 12. And "translit" isn't mentioned at all.
Incidentally, John, I noticed that when you typed "translit:phileo" and then selected "translit:phileō" from the dropdown, the search text became "translit: translit:phileō" That seems like a bug to me, don't you think? The first of those "translit"s is redundant. It can be safely removed and the search repeated and the results are the same. I'll report this separately.

Expose is awesome. But in ADDITION, you can build multiple desktops and assign programs to open on specific desktops and then expose works with all the open Windows within that one desktop. It is really quite ingenious and powerful! I am hoping the Mac developers find a way to take advantage of this to assign windows to desktops for study.
Go ahead Joe, rub it in! Now, he won't be happy with Expose. He will lust after Spaces also!

I guess there is a lot more fans of Sword Art Online then I thought. This next tutorial is going to be on a character that is not human. Instead she is a mysterious AI, but she has this innocence about her appearance. Here is "how to draw Yui", step by step. One thing I noticed is that her name is 'Yui'. There is so many manga and anime characters that have this name so it's kind of confusing making a tutorial on figure with a familiar name. Anyways, Yui was found by both Kirito and Asuna when they where in the woods of Floria. Her appearance is simple because she has long black hair with a straight style bang, bright black colored eyes, a very friendly smile and simple clothing. I love drawing characters that look like Yui because it's so fun and inspiring. She has soft features which means you naturally make soft strokes when drawing Yui from Sword Art Online. I think you too will love this tutorial especially of you are a fan of the series. Enjoy people and remember to leave some comments, ratings or fav. Peace out, and have fun with your drawing day.

Zynga's massive community of fake farmers will plant its first branded crops in-game next week, teaching FarmVille players about organic farming and green living through a partnership with General Mills subsidiary Cascadian Farm.
Starting Monday and running through July 26, FarmVille players will be able to plant Cascadian Farm-branded organic blueberries on their plots, a special crop that combines quick harvesting with large cash returns.
Special crops aren't unusual for FarmVille, with season and charity items regularly appearing in the game's market, but this marks the first time the company has included branded in-game crops in the massively popular social game.
This is FarmVille's "first branded, in-game crop integration, and we chose Cascadian Farm to offer our users something that would benefit them online and offline," said Vish Makhijani, senior vice president for business operations at Zynga, the company that also created Mafia Wars and FrontierVille, two other popular Facebook games.
Cascadian Farm is a nearly 40-year-old organic farm located in the Upper Skagit Valley of Washington's North Cascade Mountains. The farm began in 1972, selling food from local stands. Since then they've evolved into a leading grower, marketer and distributor of organic food products.
"We're at a crossroads for the brand," said Tim Goldsmid, marketing manager for Cascadian Farm. . . "We're looking to get our message out in a bigger way, and we wanted a creative way to do that."
The deal between Zynga and Cascadian Farm marks the second time FarmVille and a General Mills company have come together, with a Green Giant Fresh promotion in May placing stickers on products good for in-game FarmVille cash. $US100,000's worth of units were redeemed online in five weeks.
The organic food market is booming, as people seek out food grown with minimal interference from synthetic chemicals. Many consumers will ignore the generally higher price tag in order to ensure they are eating organic fruits and vegetables.
I'm a fan myself, but given the choice I'm much more likely to buy produce from local stands. No offence to Cascadian, but I'd rather support local farmers.

Interview: Kyle Shewfelt (CAN)
Despite missing out on the floor exercise final at the Olympics in August, 2004 Olympic floor champion Kyle Shewfelt of Canada said 2008 marked the "pinnacle of success" after his recovery from serious leg injuries.
Shewfelt's very participation in Beijing was an accomplishment. He injured both legs during an Aug. 27, 2007, training session at the World Championships in Stuttgart, Germany. After landing stiff-legged on a tumbling element, he suffered displaced fractures on both legs, as well as a chipped bone on his left knee and a stretched ligament. Shewfelt, Canada's first Olympic gold medalist in artistic gymnastics, underwent surgery two weeks later.
Following an intense period of rehabilitation, Shewfelt was named to the Canadian team that competed in Beijing. He scored 15.525 on floor exercise in qualifications, missing the cut-off for the event final by .075.
The 26-year-old Shewfelt took Beijing in philosophical stride, however, as a success in its own right. In this IG Online interview, Shewfelt reflects on 2008 and projects towards the new year.
IG: Coming so close to the floor and team finals in Beijing, and based on your injury, would you consider your performances in Beijing more an achievement than a disappointment, or some combination of the two?
KS: My Beijing experience was an absolute achievement. I didn't win another Olympic medal, but I overcame the biggest obstacle of my career to be at the Games. I appreciated the opportunity to represent my country at my third Olympic Games and I was honored to be a part of such an incredible team. Throughout the process of coming back there were times when it felt like I wouldn't be ready in time. I told Edouard [Iarov], our national coach, that I didn't want to just be placed on the team because of what I have done in the past. I wanted to earn my spot. I believe that I pushed myself to my limit. It was a phenomenal feeling to compete, knowing that the process of getting there helped me grow as an athlete and person.
It was a little disappointing to come so close to finals, both team and event, but I am firm believer that you have to base your happiness on your performances and not on the outcomes. Everything happens for a reason. We all performed brilliantly. We can always look back and say what if. What if Brandon [O'Neill] hadn't been injured? What if we would have brought in our alternate? What if a couple landings were cleaner? But, you know what? You can't go back and change the past. There is absolutely no point in looking back and wishing "What if?" "What is" is reality, and I choose to see the positives and successes rather than the negatives and disappointments.
The routine that I performed on floor was the most difficult routine that I have ever done. It was an eye-opening experience for me to realize that I could actually be better than I was before, even after going through such a traumatic injury. It just goes to show you how powerful the human spirit is.
IG: You seemed very positive after the competition in Beijing. How have you been able to reconcile your Olympic experience in the months since the Games?
KS: I was super-positive after the competition in Beijing because I realized very quickly that I had done my best. It's a pretty satisfying feeling to look back and have no regrets.
It was funny in the morning after our competition. I was walking around the Olympic Village and it felt like I was attending my own funeral. Everyone on the Canadian Olympic team was giving me sympathetic looks and the "I'm so sorry" eyes. I didn't feel bad, though. I was happy. I owed it to myself to smile. I didn't bust my butt every minute for the past 11 months to be there and mope around because I didn't make finals. I was choosing to be happy. But, after experiencing everyone's reactions, I felt like maybe I did do something wrong - like I did let my country down. So, in all honesty, I did have a few hours where I felt like a loser and like I failed. But then I started really thinking about it and decided that this was not a failure. This was the pinnacle of success. Medals do not define success. Personal achievement does.
It was a little bit difficult coming home and not having a medal because the craziness was not anywhere near the same level as it was in 2004. But I was OK with it. I needed some time to reconnect with my family and friends and to get perspective on the whole experience. We live in a very superficial world, and in the months following an Olympic Games, a lot of the attention is given to the athletes with the hardware. I realize that. I benefited from it in 2004. But I believe I am wiser now, and after returning home from Beijing without a medal, but with a tremendous personal victory, I am seeing that the latter holds more value.
I think it takes time to come to terms with an Olympic experience, whether good or bad, because you turn off your life for the goal and then you have a lot of rebuilding to do when you get home. It's super emotional and sometimes you just need to remove yourself from everything "Olympic" for awhile because it's all you have thought of and known for a year leading up. I feel that now, four months after Beijing, I am almost able to look back on the experience and see it for what it was. I feel far enough removed that I have a greater perspective.
IG: How close to 100 percent "repaired" are you?
KS: I actually had surgery on Nov. 6 to remove the plate and four screws from my left leg. It was really starting to bother me, and I just didn't want to have metal in my legs if I didn't have to. I was taking a nice dose of anti-inflammatory during the Olympics, but I stopped taking it after the Games and noticed that my leg hurt a lot more. I always had a burning sensation in my leg because the plate was right on the attachment of the hamstring, but I knew that I would have to suck it up before the Games because recovering from another surgery wasn't an option.
I met with my surgeon shortly after coming home from Beijing, and he said that it would be safe to take out the hardware because the bone was totally healed. So I opted to do the surgery, and the result has been awesome. I don't have the burning sensation anymore and I am a lot more comfortable, especially when it's cold out! I still have the screw in my right knee, but it doesn't bother me, so I will keep it in there. Post-surgery is not a fun experience and I will avoid it if I can!
I don't think my legs will ever be quite the same as they were before the accident. It's a lot harder to put on muscle mass, and my knees are pretty sensitive to touch. I like having the scars, though, because they constantly remind me to never take anything for granted.
IG: What are some of the targets you have set for yourself, in and out of the gym, for 2009?
KS: I want 2009 to be a year filled with love, success, fun, interaction, gratitude, growth, failure, new experiences and genuine happiness. Failure probably doesn't seem like it fits in there, but I believe that failure is the best way to learn. I want to embrace every possibility that 2009 presents. I have a feeling it's going to be an incredible year!
IG: As 2008 comes to a close, how much longer do you see yourself doing gymnastics?
KS: That's a hard question for me to answer. I see myself being involved in gymnastics forever, but I am taking it day by day when it comes to the actual "doing gymnastics" part. Right now, I am trying to be diligent in my recovery from surgery and take my time setting new gymnastic goals. I want them to be heartfelt, or they aren't worth pursuing.
IG: Outside of training, what are some of the promotional and professional activities you've done since Beijing?
KS: I have done a bunch of appearances and talks around the country promoting sport and the Olympics. I am really trying to get the point across that outcomes do not define us — it's our journeys that do. The lessons we learn, the people we meet, the obstacles we overcome and the experiences we have leading up to a moment are what make us who we are. We don't instantly become a good person because we win an Olympic gold medal. Some of the best and most inspiring athletes I have ever met will never win Olympic gold, but they are incredible examples and leaders to emulate.
IG: How and where do you plan to spend the Christmas and New Year holidays?
KS: I plan on spending the holidays in Calgary with my family and friends. I don't have any crazy plans — just enjoying the wonderful company and living in the moment. 'Tis the season to be jolly, and I have already been party-hopping like a mad man. I love the spirit of Christmas. It's a very special time of year and I have always been very fortunate to get to spend it with the people I love.

Lilo from Disney's Lilo & Stitch is absolutely an adorable cartoon character. When I first watched the animated movie I fell in love with her and Stitch. The story is about a little Hawaiian girl that has no friends and doesn't fit in any where. She depends on her big sister to bring her up because her parents died in an accident. Struggling with life and learning to dodge all the blows thrown at her she decides that she wants a pet. Her sister agrees and they go down to the local animal shelter, she finds the perfect pet that is as odd as she is. Lilo calls him Stitch (which happens to be an alien from outer space), she later finds out that he is a handful and does more bad than good. She finally finds a purpose and decides that she was going to teach Stitch how to be good so she wouldn't have to get rid of him. Lilo is a girl that feels like she is a burden to her sister but would do anything for her. She is spunky, loving, creative, adventures, brave, and fun all in one little package. Trying to find acceptance from other little girls and wanting to play with someone other than her sister she finds a true friend in Stitch. I had a lot of fun drawing Lilo and her funny looking doll; she is a cartoon character that will always remain one of my favorites. I show you "how to draw Lilo", step by step with simple instructions. Children and adults of all ages will surely have fun with this tutorial. You can learn to draw one of the cutest characters ever created by Disney.

Nikki Sixx Talks Kiss Tour and the Importance of Looking Like a Rock Star
In just a few more months, rock fans are in for the show of a lifetime when Motley Crue and Kiss hit the road together on their co-headlining trek, The Tour. The 40-date tour will kick off on July 20 in Bristow, Va. and is promised to be packed full of the same edge that both bands have always had.
"We're like soldiers, man — you can't take us out," Motley Crue bassist Nikki Sixx recently told Washington D.C.'s FOX 5. "You do it long enough and you realize that you just get stronger, and you get better … you're a better player, better singer, better performer and you just go. You're like a war machine, to be honest with you. The longer you've been around, the better you get."
Sixx and his fellow bandmates, as well as Kiss, know the importance of having the entire package to go along with being a rock star. "If there's anything that young musicians [should] take away from this, you can't look like a roadie and be in a f—ing band," he said in the interview. "You've gotta be in a band. You've gotta be a rock star. You've gotta dress like a rock star, you've gotta play music that's important, you've gotta put a hundred percent into your lyrics, a hundred percent into your songs, a hundred percent into your show, your packaging, your marketing, and do it. It's time for new bands to step up because Kiss and Motley Crue, Aerosmith, the Rolling Stones … we're not always gonna be here. Who's gonna replace us? There's no one out there. It's sad."
And speaking of Aerosmith, they will also be hitting the road this summer on their own co-headlining venture with Cheap Trick, which kicks off in June.

U.S. Attorney Barbara L. McQuade's office has led the charge against much of the pension corruption in Detroit.
No issue in the Detroit bankruptcy is more contentious: How deep is the hole in the workers' pension funds?
The city says the funds suffer a $3.5 billion shortfall, making benefit cuts inevitable. The trustees who control the funds say the city is overstating its case and that the funding situation is far less dire.
But one thing is not in question: The two funds, one for police and firefighters and another for general city employees, are haunted by bad investments and City Hall corruption in the past.
In fact, the funds lost hundreds of millions of dollars from real estate deals, business loans and other risky "alternative" investments, according to pension fund financial reports.
"Pension funds are supposed to be your grandmother's life savings; you handle this money better than you would handle your own," Kevyn Orr, the state-appointed manager running Detroit, said last month. "That just wasn't done for a long, long time."
Related: Just how generous are Detroit's pensions?
As of June 2011, the two pension funds had combined assets of about $5.8 billion, down roughly 30% over a four-year period, according to the funds' most recent financial reports.
Significant investment losses can be chalked up to the recession that ravaged the portfolios of most investors.
But some losses are the result of questionable and risky investment decisions, such as the funds' $30 million loan to a cargo airline that filed for bankruptcy months later, according to court records.
And in some cases, outright fraud was at play. FBI investigations led to the conviction this year of former Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick on a variety of charges, including some related to the pensions. In addition, $84 million of the funds' losses have been tied to a corruption scheme.
According to FBI and court documents, city and pension fund officials allegedly accepted bribes and kickbacks — ranging from cash payments to lavish trips, entertainment and private plane flights — in exchange for steering more than $200 million in pension fund investments.
For example, one former trustee of the police and fire fund allegedly accepted thousands of dollars in cash, a $5,000 casino chip, and trips to Florida and the Bahamas for he and his "mistress," according to the criminal indictment. He has entered a not guilty plea and is awaiting trial, scheduled for next year.
And just this month, a former chief of staff to a Detroit City Council member pleaded guilty to accepting $15,000 in cash bribes in 2007 in exchange for pushing for a $15 million investment in speculative real estate in the Turks and Caicos Islands. He faces up to ten years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000, according to an FBI release.
Overall, seven people have been convicted in relation to the pension fund investigation, while four more are facing criminal indictments, according to an FBI document.
Related: Retired Detroit firefighter: 'My pension is what I was promised'
"Detroit's bankruptcy and the risk to retirees' pension benefits demonstrate the importance of rooting out corruption from Detroit's two pension funds," U.S. Attorney Barbara McQuade said in a statement. "The pension funds should be managed to benefit retirees, not to line the pockets of public officials."
In a joint statement, the pension funds said that any "professional misconduct" related to the funds will not be tolerated. They also noted that many public and private investment organizations suffered substantial losses in the recession.
Mark Diaz, president of the Detroit Police Officers Association and a current trustee for the police and fire fund, said the trustees have hired a new investment consulting firm and implemented a stringent ethics policy.
"This current retirement system board has been very active in ensuring the level of integrity becomes the flagship or the standard," he said. "I am expecting wholeheartedly for our retirement system to not only grow, but actually to improve."
But many current workers and retirees worry that it may be too late if proposed benefits cuts are approved.
"I was promised a full retirement package for my loyalty and my hard working services," retired city employee Charles Chatman wrote in a letter filed with the court objecting to the bankruptcy proceedings. "If my benefits are relinquished, it will be very hard for me to survive."

Contemporary directors like Harmony Korine, Lars Von Trier, Nicolas Winding Refn, Kathryn Bigelow, Terence Malick, David Lynch, Pedro Almodovar and Jane Campion to name a few are very distinctive visual film makers and attract devotees for their unique personal take on our world.The Concept
The concept of a perfumed signature is a fascinating one. The blogosphere and the huge rise of interest in perfumery have created a high level of interest in the noses or creators of the many fragrances released each year. Some perfumers have become superstars, especially in the rarified and closed world of niche perfumery. There are many websites and blogs dedicated to raw materials, perfumers, regulations and perfume history so enthusiasts can now access information about their favourite fragrances and noses.
Each perfumer works in his or her own way, with a set of emotional reactions to raw materials. The interesting part of the work is how much freedom there is to fully express an idea. Specific marketing briefs and budgetary constraints play an enormous role in all aspects of perfumery, be it at Chanel or smaller niche houses like Miller Harris.
A precedent was set by Éditions Frédéric Malle, a concept of commissioning and publishing fragrances by perfumers allowing them to freely explore their own thematic preoccupations without the constraints of working for larger mainstream houses. The results arguably changed the way perfumers were perceived. Malle allowed them to shine and highlighted the styles and themes they explored.
Betrand Duchaufour In 2009 when Penhaligon's decided to launch a new woman's fragrance, the brief went out and samples came in. The decision to go with independent perfumer Bertrand Duchaufour was an inspired one. Amaranthine sent shockwaves through the perfume world. It was radically different from anything the brand had released before, a shockingly sensual tropical floral with huge levels of ylang ylang and jasmine shot through with spiced oils, banana tree leaf and a wonderfully unsettling milk note in the base. Bertrand's trademark use of fabulously inventive raw materials and his penchant for global references are usually more at home with brands like L'Artisan Parfumeur and Eau D'Italie. However, by playing these elements against the preconceived notions of Penhaligon's as a more traditional style of perfume house produced startling results. The prim and proper Englishwoman transfigured by love in the tropics, desire and sensuality amid the plantation flora. Bertrand's signature is very much there running under the classic floral structure, his use of incendiary petals and spices to explode the skin. Tied to notes of rose, vanilla, freesia and orange blossom, the structure is a beautiful marriage of styles, a sensualising of reserved desires.
Oliver Cresp When Olivier Cresp agreed to work on Juniper Sling, he was a relative newcomer to the world of artisan fragrance, having spent much of his time working in the turbo charged atmosphere of mainstream perfumery. He had created mega sellers such as Angel for Thierry Mugler, Light Blue for Dolce and Gabbana and Noa for Cacharel. Many of his fragrances are white and clean with a distinctive musky transparency. This deceptive glassiness and ease of wear is apparent in many of Olivier's fragrances and an element he chose to explode when it came to exploring the world of London Dry Gin for Penhaligon's. The chilled, addictive result was a huge hit and Juniper Sling is one of Penhaligon's most successful fragrances. Olivier's extensive experience in big name perfumery and the eccentricities of an English perfume house combine to create a showstopping scent.
Both Olivier Cresp and Bertrand Duchaufour extended their olfactory palettes and skills with other work for Penhaligon's. Bertrand ran up the bestselling Sartorial, inspired by the cutting rooms of Saville Row and Olivier created Peoneve, an atmospheric floral of rose and violet wrapped in a white peony note, a homage to Olivier's family garden in Grasse.
Olivia Giacobetti Olivia Giacobetti is well known for her work with incense and fig notes. There is delicacy and strength in her oeuvre and the soft tension between these two elements is often what makes her work so interesting to wear. In 2008, when it came to creating a link to Hammam Bouquet, our oldest fragrance from 1872, Olivia decided to revisit incense, mixing it with spices, rose, orange blossom and eucalyptus to create a modern day spa response to the old Edwardian Turkish Hammam experience. Elixir is smoky, sweet and all embracing, deeply resonant with all the techniques and flourishes associated with Olivia's career, but created at the same time with an awareness of the heritage of Penhaligon's and one of its most iconic fragrances.
So we can all become fragrance aficionados, we can sample the latest releases from in-house perfumers at Chanel, Dior and Hermes, big budget releases from brands like Givenchy, Lancôme, Prada etc or we can keep a more specialised eye on noses like Annick Ménardo, Karine Vinchon, Antoine Lie, Ralf Schweiger, Mathilde Laurent, Dominique Ropion and Olivia Giacobetti. Either way we can see themes, threads, styles and influences. With a little work and attention to scented detail it is possible to be become quite adept at olfactory autograph spotting.

Looking back: 199305/29/2003 12:06 PM ET
By John Schlegel / MLB.com
It might as well just be called the A-Rod Draft, for the 1993 First-Year Player Draft will forever be remembered for being Alex Rodriguez's ascension into professional baseball. Amazing to think that a decade later, still young with a lot of baseball left in him at age 27, Rodriguez has pushed past 300 homers and has established himself as the game's best all-around player. With each step already seemingly pointed to Cooperstown, the once-skinny kid from Miami has done pretty well for himself. But, then, A-Rod was nothing if not a can't-miss prospect coming out of Miami's Westminster Christian Prep back in '93. The amateur baseball community took notice, making him a finalist for the Golden Spikes Award -- a rarity for a high school player. The professional baseball community definitely knew all about Rodriguez as he matured into one of the best prospects scouts had seen in some time. He was a player with all the tools, evidenced by his nine home runs and 36 RBIs in 33 games as a senior, his 35 steals in 35 attempts and a body type and fielding presence at shortstop that reminded so many of Cal Ripken Jr. With all that going for him, A-Rod was already mature enough to know he had the baseball world in his pocket, and he knew how to handle it. "It's a once-in-a-lifetime situation," Rodriguez said prior to the draft. "If I stopped and looked at all the positives I might stumble. I'm only 17 so I'll enjoy every moment, and play hard and play to win."
No. 2, RHP Darren Dreifort, Dodgers (Wichita State): Far from a bust, it's hard to say Dreifort has been able to live up to his potential so far, thanks to myriad injuries. But he's healthy now, and the Dodgers are glad to have him around this year.No. 3, LHP Brian Anderson, Angels (Wright State): Now in his second stint with Cleveland, Anderson has racked up more than 200 appearances in the bigs and more than 180 of them as a starter. No. 7, OF Trot Nixon, Red Sox (New Hanover HS, Wilmington, N.C.): Since coming up to the big leagues full time in 1999, Nixon has become a fixture in right field for Boston, earning team MVP honors in 2001 and playing in a career-high 152 games in 2002. No. 12, LHP Billy Wagner, Astros (Ferrum College): With a ton of velocity packed into his 5-foot-11 frame, Wagner is pushing toward 200 saves and stands to become the team's all-time leader in that department as well as appearances before too long. No. 14, 1B Derrek Lee, Padres (El Camino HS, Sacramento): Lee made it to the big leagues with the Padres but was shipped in the Kevin Brown deal to Florida prior to the 1998 season. He has blossomed in Florida, posting solid power numbers each of the last two seasons. No. 20, OF Torii Hunter, Twins (Pine Bluff HS, Pine Bluff, Ark.): Selected for the first and probably not the last time to the All-Star Game in 2002, Hunter is a human highlight reel in center field and brings solid offensive numbers for the position as well. Other notables: No. 4, RHP Wayne Gomes, Phillies; No. 10, OF/RHP Brooks Kieschnick, Cubs; No. 15, RHP Chris Carpenter, Blue Jays; No. 16, RHP Alan Benes, Cardinals; No. 19, RHP Jay Powell, Orioles; No. 21, C Jason Varitek, Twins (did not sign); No. 23, RHP Jeff D'Amico, Brewers; No. 28, RHP Jamey Wright, Rockies. Disappointments
No. 8, RHP Kirk Presley, Mets (Mississippi State): A quarterback in college, he was considered a tough sign but the Mets got him for $900,000. Arm injuries ended his career.No. 9, SS Matt Brunson, Tigers (Cherry Creek HS, Englewood, Colo.): After 2 1/2 years of struggling in the minors for the Tigers and then the Marlins, Brunson actually went back to football as a wide receiver at the University of Colorado. No. 13, RHP Matt Drews, Yankees (Sarasota HS, Sarasota, FL): A 6-foot-8 pitcher who made some headway in the minors, his biggest claim to fame after being drafted was in being part of the trade that brought Cecil Fielder from Detroit to the Yankees in 1996. Late-round Jackpots
3B Scott Rolen, Phillies, second round (46th overall): Not exactly a late-rounder, but a major star now with the Cardinals.RHP Kevin Millwood, Braves, 11th round (320th overall): The ace of the Phillies with a no-hitter under his belt -- not bad for that low. OF Jermaine Dye, Braves, 17th round (488th overall): Hampered by injuries the last couple of years with the A's but already a stellar career for that level of the draft. 1B Richie Sexson, Indians, 24th round (671st overall): How many 40-homer, 100-RBI guys do you normally find around this stage of the draft? Not many. C Paul Lo Duca, Dodgers, 25th round (690th overall): An everyday catcher with a good bat at this level? Almost as good as finding Mike Piazza in the 62nd round ... almost. Other noteables: RHP Matt Clement, Padres, third round; INF/OF Scott Spiezio, A's, sixth round; INF Mark Loretta, Brewers, seventh round; RHP John Thomson, Rockies, seventh round.

See my page entry in main wikipedia site: Neolux
The design choice for this was to take elements from the design of the foundation logo, and re-purpose them.
The gestalt of the logo is effectively a talking head. The arcs being stylised sound waves as the circular head says something.
The typeface (Lassigue D Mato) was chosen to be a script as a quote is a sometimes a quick quip, or something transitory, something this particular typeface epitomises.
The fading in colour of the arcs mainly is a fading of the intensity of the sound waves and was an aesthetic decision, as opposed to a symbolic one.
|I also designed the logo for the Wikimedia Foundation.
The colours are red, blue and green, representing the three primary colours of light, as well as the three colours that used for links on MediaWiki projects. The current default theme has changed the green links to a lighter shade of blue though, so it's mildly outdated.
In terms of the shape of the logo, the white space in the main circular area forms a stylised "w" representing "wiki". This, also allows the green area to represent a book, which is a symbol of knowledge. The blue arc surrounding the book hopefully represents "encompassing" that knowledge, which is something that the Wikimedia projects hope to do. The smaller red circle interrupts the blue arc, which can show the incomplete nature of a wiki. Completing the arc would imply that all knowledge has been encompassed, which is a practical impossibility. Serendipitously, the combination of all these elements also forms a humanoid, with the red circle being the head, the blue arc being arms and the book of knowledge being the heart/torso.
Due to the colours and typeface (Gill Sans) I chose for this design, they have now been adopted as the official colours and typeface for Wikimedia according to the Wikimedia visual identity guidelines.
If anyone wants more clarification or has any other questions, feel free to email admin (at) neolux (dot) com (dot) au.

The DHS Has Been Using A Fake Mexican Constitution Article To Deport US Citizens For 35 Years
from the every-deportation-justifies-the-lie dept
We're used to our government's security and intelligence agencies telling lies in order to justify their actions. The Director of National Intelligence, James Clapper, has achieved a sort of infamy for his "least untruthful answer" in response to questioning. (Not that this infamy has cost him his job…) Others have performed linguistic aerobics ("not under this program," "relevant to…") to stretch the truth just enough to give their activities a thin veneer of legitimacy.
The DHS does it, too. However, when it lies, it goes big, and it plays a long, long con.
For more than two decades, Sigifredo Saldana Iracheta insisted he was a U.S. citizen, repeatedly explaining to immigration officials that he was born to an American father and a Mexican mother in a city just south of the Texas border.NPR calls it an "error." Jeff Gamso, public defender and former criminal defense lawyer, calls it something else.
Year after year, the federal government rejected his claims, deporting him at least four times and at one point detaining him for nearly two years as he sought permission to join his wife and three children in South Texas.
In rejecting Saldana's bid for citizenship, the government sought to apply an old law that cited Article 314 of the Mexican Constitution, which supposedly dealt with legitimizing out-of-wedlock births. But there was a problem: The Mexican Constitution has no such article.
Our government's been lying to the courts about this since at least 1978 when the Immigration and Naturalization Service first invented Article 314 of the Mexican Constitution as a convenient way to deny citizenship to and thus deport American citizens.The opinion from the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals isn't as generous as NPR, either.
DHS officers and the Administrative Appeals Office ("AAO") within DHS have relied on provisions of the Mexican Constitution that either never existed or do not say what DHS claims they say.The DHS, however, was very generous towards its previously uninterrupted 35-year exploitation of a non-existent constitutional article.
Saldana's case was finally resolved earlier this month, when the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals dismissed the government's explanation of a "typo" and ruled that he had been a citizen since birth.A "typo." That sounds familiar. The NSA used the same excuse for its collection of tons of domestic data when it claimed analysts accidentally entered US area codes rather than codes tied to foreign countries. It was a "typo," and the DHS never bothered to correct it for 35 years and then only because it was called out by a federal court.
And this isn't the only lie/error in the DHS' case. It also pointed to another article of the Mexican Constitution to deny Saldana's claims of citizenship -- Article 130. Fortunately, for the DHS, this article actually exists. Unfortunately for its hopes of barring Saldana from the country for the fifth time, what it says isn't anywhere near what is claimed.
The AAO also cited Article 130 of the Constitution of Mexico for the same proposition that the Constitution requires that parents be married in order for children to be legitimated. However, Article 130 provides only that marriage is a civil contract, as opposed to a religious one, and says nothing about legitimation or children.Why would the government repeatedly lie in order to prosecute and deport legal US citizens? Gamso answers this question very succinctly.
Because it can.It got away with this one for 35 years. Why should it stop? Three-and-a-half decades of reliance on a wholly fabricated article of a constitution it (correctly) assumed no one would actually bother looking up. In retrospect, it seems audacious. But the reality of the situation is that the government got away with a lie for more than three decades and that fact alone is enough to encourage it to deploy useful lies in any situation where it thinks misstating the facts will give it an edge or help it achieve its aims.

Trip Report: Philz Coffee @ 18th St.
Posted by TheShot on 15 Mar 2006 | Tagged as: Beans, Local Brew, Roasting
A year ago or so, owner Phil Jabar started serving coffee as "Philz Coffee" at the former Gateway Market at Folsom & 24th Sts. This newer location opened more recently (January 2006), and it has as loyal a local following as the original shop. Business here started slow, though, and has picked up more recently as word-of-mouth spread. With slogans such as "one cup at a time" and (confusingly) "That's Italian!", I've decided that Philz represents more of a success at guerilla marketing than great coffee. And I really wanted to like Philz.
Walking up to this place, locals told me on the street, "You must try their coffee!" Inside there is dingy, used furniture: sofas, school desks, mistmatched chairs. And piles of roasted coffee. At $11.95/lb, I inquired about what beans were in their Heavenly Blend, which looked interesting on sight. Phil's son, behind the counter, told me, "I don't know what beans — it's a mixture of light and dark roasts." Big trouble right there.
And this is a place the SF Weekly recently called "best local coffee blend"? They host Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday coffee tastings from 2-5pm, but what's the point of a wine tasting if all you learn you're drinking is "red" or "white"?
If you can get past the fact that they don't know what beans are in what blend, and that they tend to describe their blends with only adjectives rather than any nouns (?!), Philz serves good drip coffee. But is that enough to create a loyal following?
Philz brews it in single-serving drip filters — but moderately good places like Plumes Coffee House in Monterey (among a number of others) have been doing that for years now. And while their roasts are pretty good (I took a pound of their Heavenly Blend home anyway), they didn't strike me as any fresher or better than you could get at The Beanery or, say, his Sunset roasting counterparts: legendary, friendly neighborhood "loners" such as Alvin Azadkhanian of Alvin's and Henry Kalebjian of House of Coffee. So what's the secret?
I believe it comes down to Phil Jabar himself. The man is a better showman than his Sunset counterparts, and his business benefits from clientele who think they need a visa to travel to the Sunset District. Phil puts on the Reno charm and plays the role of alchemist rather than barista.
But whereas Philz is particularly strong at beverages such as Turkish and Arabic coffee, run — do not walk — away from this place if you want anything resembling a drinkable espresso. Using a two-group La Spaziale with the portafilter handles left out cooling on the drip tray (ugh!!), they pull shots with absolutely no crema. They serve their espresso jet black and in a regular coffee cup. Not surprisingly, it tastes ashy and tarry with some bitterness.
Did I mention that I really wanted to like Philz? Well, it might be surprising that Philz Coffee ended up rated in the bottom 10% of all SF espressos. But the pictures here don't lie. Make no mistake: when it comes to espresso, Philz suckz.

[…] Mentioned in the article are Blue Bottle Coffee, Cole Coffee (formerly Royal Coffee) in Oakland's Rockridge district, and Philz Coffee — the last of which is terrible at espresso (my recommendation: they shouldn't even bother) but earning a reputation at filter-drip coffee. […]
[…] cited in the article was news of the closure of Philz Coffee on 18th St.. The reason for the closure? The business relationship at that Philz location apparently went as […]
I really, really wanted to love this place, and I sort of do, but really for the service only. The coffee was just alright. I prefer Ritual and Blue Bottle. The Americano I had was just alright, and they even told me beforehand that "it's not like a normal Americano."
But dangit, they are so friendly…
Great blog,
I love Philz! Their blends are 'proprietary'… which makes criticizing their ambiguity a little unfair. Likewise, I think knocking Philz for espresso is a bit like complaining that your Ferrari doesn't perform off-road to your liking… Regardless, Philz serves a truly unique cup of joe, laudable (at least) for raising the bar, and (most likely) for spreading joy in liquid form.
have you been in a philz lately?

The New Edition IQAir HealthPro Plus Air Purifier is pretty impressive. At face value it is a big fan with a pre-filter, a gas and odor filter, and a hyperHEPA filter in a box with some electronics. This is why there are so many 'wannabe' versions of the HealthPro Plus. Sure they are different sizes, and shapes, but they are all basically the same thing. The problem with 'wannabe' solutions is they all take shortcuts. These range from using inferior filters, to layering designs which can do things like inhibit the effectiveness of the air filters by positioning the air intake too close to the exhaust. The exhaust ends up feeding the intake so the system would just loop re-filtering the air over and over again instead of distributing it through-out the room. Someone could even say that these types of designs are done on purpose because bad testing (for instance lab testing done by say… Consumer Reports) could indicate that these types of air filtration devices kick out better quality air than they actually do. After all putting a device in a small clear room (walls made of plastic or glass) with some smoke and timing how long it takes to be clear again isn't much of a test. The New Edition IQAir HealthPro Plus Air Purifier has an excellent Swiss design that is about as close to perfect as you can get. That is precisely the reason you see IQAir in Hospitals, Schools, and other large facilities. Their technology is effective and these units bring that technology to your home.
One of the things a lot of people don't know about their home is the air condition. Air pollution in the home exists, and often is 10 – 20 times worse than outdoor air pollution. It causes issues ranging from colds and flu to asthma and allergy triggering. Mold is a very common thing in households everywhere on the planet and it is almost impossible to get rid of. Everything you move from dishes to furniture cause the mold spores to stir up and multiply. You need something that is IQAir effective to combat that by actively filtering the air in your home. Something that isn't going to clog up fast and become 50% as effective in as little as 3 months (like a number of the competitors). Long term testing is a big deal with these types of units and we did our duty to you. We've been testing the IQAir machines for 8 years. We have the old IQAir HealthPro Plus from 8 years ago, without a filter change and guess what? It's operating at 94% efficiency which is a big deal considering it has been sitting in a home with pets and kids for 8 years.
We like to test things in a production environment. In a real home, with real people, with real kids, and real people and pet dirt. The way we look for effective results is by measuring the particles in the air before, during and after. We use a laser particle scanner for this, because the dirt, dust and other junk in your air is usually invisible and smoke in a room just isn't good enough.
So what did we find? A few things actually. First of all if you are going to keep the machine and not change the filters out there are a few things you need to do. 1) Understand it will not be 99% efficient, count on losing between 1 -2% the first 2 years and half a percent or so there after if you follow this basic cleaning procedure. Take the prefilter out every 6 months and use either a can of air or an air compressor and blow it out. This is where all the big stuff gets trapped. Do it outside because you will get a lot of hair and dust everywhere. Wear something like a dust mask and goggles to make sure you don't inhale this stuff or get it in your eyes. After that is all cleaned up simply stick it back in your IQAir machine and you are good to go for another 6 months.
We take particle scanner readings every year on the house. We set the scanner to measure the smallest particle size and then take a read. When we started a little over 8 years ago the read showed 1.5 MILLION particles per cubic foot. After 24 hours with the IQAir HealthPro Plus Air Purifier set on HIGH (Level 6) it read 48,000. That's huge. That number would eventually go to 15,000 and sit in that area. Remember that's with 5 kids and 2 dogs running in and out of the house!
This new IQAir HealthPro Plus is just as amazing. It is able to provide up to 25% more clean air than the original, the HyperHEPA filter now lasts up to 38% longer (which is huge considering it was amazing to begin with) and it's much quieter. As in our meter said it was 30% quieter which puts it the category of #1 in that department world wide for high performance air purification devices. The New Edition IQAir Health Pro Plus is being nominated for our Perfect 10 Award. Only 1 other product since 1997 has ever received our Perfect 10 award. Stay tuned we will be announcing the awards at the end of October so check back! We will be publishing a comprehensive review detailing our actual testing out including sound decibel levels in a few days. This is going to be amazing! We will also be recommending one of their dealers based on their ability to get you a unit fast and support the product well. So stay tuned.
For now you can chew on the Press Release from IQAir for any of the details we didn't go over:
The world's best air purifiers are now even better
SANTA FE SPRINGS, Calif., Sept. 5, 2012 /PRNewswire/ — IQAir (www.iqair.com), the technology leader in high-performance air purification, today introduced its New Edition room air purifiers. This is IQAir's most significant upgrade yet to its line of residential high-performance air purifiers. The New Edition offers three advancements:
- Up to 25 percent more clean air,
- Up to 38 percent longer filter life,
- And 32% quieter – a new level of quietness never before achieved in high-performance home air purification.
IQAir achieved these advancements by focusing on the two most important components in any air purifier – the filters and the fan.
"The new fan is a first-of-a-kind," says Frank Hammes, president of IQAir. "It is aerodynamically optimized to generate the highest possible airflow while minimizing sound. These improvements have increased our airflow while maintaining our superior Total System Efficiency. This gives allergy and asthma sufferers enhanced air quality they should immediately notice."
"Allergy and asthma sufferers need the highest possible level of air purification," says Hammes. "But the problem has always been to achieve this without sacrificing a quiet indoor environment. The New Edition systems reduce sound levels by 32 percent over our previous air cleaners and are now the quietest high-performance air purifiers in the world."
Most consumer air cleaners are only designed to filter large dust particles – those 0.3 microns or larger. But 90 percent of all airborne particles are smaller than 0.3 microns. IQAir's New Edition systems are the only residential air purifiers tested and certified to filter the smallest of ultrafine particles, down to 0.003 microns in size and with a guaranteed minimum efficiency of 99.5 percent.
Research has shown that ultrafine particles are the most dangerous air pollution particles of all. These smallest particles penetrate deeply into lung tissue and enter the bloodstream, increasing the production of atherosclerotic plaque by more than 50 percent. The result is an increase in heart attacks and strokes. Scientists have also found that even brief exposure to ultrafine pollution particles can result in allergic inflammation that causes asthma flare-ups. What's more, studies have shown that exposure to ultrafine particles increases the risk of lung cancer and also damages DNA.
"These are the particles ordinary air purifiers are not designed to filter – although they are the most dangerous to our health," says Hammes.
"At IQAir our filters are an endless obsession for us," says Hammes. "The New Edition features the most sophisticated pleating pattern ever used in a residential air purifier filter."
The filter and fan advancements have led to the remarkable combination of increased airflow, less noise and longer filter life. In fact, the New Edition's filter life and particle retention are increased by 20 percent on the pre-filters and 38 percent on the HyperHEPA filters.
"At IQAir, we believe that for our customers to be satisfied – we must never be," says Hammes. "To this end, we took what were already widely recognized as the world's best air purifiers and made them even better. People who need the cleanest possible air will soon find the New Edition to be a vital part of their lives."
IQAir has been able to make these improvements to New Edition air purifiers without increasing prices. The HealthPro Series and other IQAir residential air purifiers are available at Authorized IQAir Dealer retail stores, Authorized IQAir online retailers or at www.iqair.com.
IQAir North America, Inc. is a member of the Swiss-based IQAir Group that for nearly 50 years has developed, manufactured and marketed innovative air quality products for homes, offices, schools, hospitals and other critical environments. IQAir is the American Lung Association's exclusive educational partner from the air purifier industry. IQAir products have been named a Consumers Digest Best Buy and the top recommendation of Consumers Guide, Reviewboard Magazine, Consumer Search, as well as the prestigious German government product testing organization, Stiftung Warentest.

If someone is just looking for the cheapest options, we don't do this. There is a lot of different places with mediocre services, dirty apartments and lack of security. We don't do this.
But, again, if you care about:
1. The best beach and front line.
2. Good service.
3. Security 24/7
4. And clean lovely apartments, then come, stay with us.

We know every inch in this county and everything connected to the Dominican Republic and Hospitality management, so we can organize any kind of events and activities for you. You can totally enjoy yourself and have an unforgettable, exciting experience.
But again, everything is in your hands, so make the right decision for yourself!
The host who really cares about what he/she does. To find a great host in the Dominican Republic or in Punta Cana in particular it's a serious task.
Imagine yourself in the situation when your AC is not working. It's super hot. You are sweating. You calling your host and sending messages and he/she doesn't really care about what is going on.
Especially in the Dominican Republic, you should find a host who really cares. And ready to fix anything 24/7
You are going on vacation and you want to enjoy it. Now imagine the situation that you have some bed bugs. You cannot sleep. Sheets were changed three times and it doesn't help. You are scratching your body constantly. You cannot sleep properly.
Now let's imagine the situation. You rented the apartment and now you have some skin infection. You are at the hospital. You need medicine and you have no idea what is going on, and what kind of treatment you'll have but your medical bill is already over $500. You think that I am making this up? Unfortunately, this is a real story. We took out our dear guest Jim from a big international hotel, where he had food poisoning and nobody can really help him. And that's where we can go to paragraph number three – how to o Be like local.
* check the reputation of some local clinics in Latin America. You will be surprised to know what is the reality.
3. Local guidance.
It happens to be true that if you have a local knowledge you are in big advantage. All local hustlers are trying to cheat you. Nobody likes to be cheated even if we talking about two dollars.
So this is really important to have some local guidance to know where to go what is good and what is not so good. Not only relying on TripAdvisor reviews. You'll have immediately the list of the best places, specific interest like salsa, excursions etc.
*You still have an option to lock you in at all inclusive and see only your hotel. They do everything so you stay in a hotel!
Of course, we are not only one Company that provides Hospitality Services in the Dominican Republic. But

Programmable storage adapters: Why they actually make sense
Programmable storage adapters (aka intelligent storage adapters or ISAs) are a new and upcoming trend in the storage world. Storage expert and Chief Dragon Slayer Marc Staimer explains why they could be of value to your storage system.
The storage networking market has been plagued by hype, over-promised benefits, broadly interpreted standards and even wildly diverging meanings of the same descriptive words. This is not any different from any other high-tech market; however, the consequences for the very risk-averse storage market can be and has been excruciatingly painful.
ISAs are storage initiators (for servers) or targets (storage) that can be programmed in some fashion. It is the term "programmable" that's open to interpretation depending on the vendor. Programmable can mean that the microcode (firmware) can be controlled or manipulated programmatically through an API by scripts or other programs. Or it can mean that the applications can be ported to run right on the adapter.
The former meaning can be very interesting to system vendors that may have pieces of what comes with the adapter card such as iSCSI stacks or TCP stacks. This allows them to reutilize microcode or software they have and leverage software functions in the ISA they don't, such as iWARP (RDMA) or zero copy. This makes financial sense to the system vendor where the value is in shorter time to market and less R&D. It has the potential to save them money and increase their revenue. For the user, it means little or nothing.
The other meaning can be a bit more interesting. Think of it as the ultimate offload. Instead of just offloading functions such as TCP/IP, iWARP or iSCSI a whole world of important and annoying applications can be offloaded and integrated. Take an application, such as PXE Boot or Win Boot from the SAN, where the application resides on the target storage ISA. This application would allow software iSCSI drivers on Windows or Linux to boot off the SAN and eliminate the need for internal HDDs. This means significant cost savings for the application servers and eliminates the need and cost of dual appliances on the SAN with their requirements for cabling, power, cooling and real estate.
Another offloaded application can be wide area TCP acceleration and optimization. This offloaded application has value on both the initiator and target side, again eliminating the requirements and costs of appliances, power, cooling, cables, etc. Similar benefits can be seen for encryption (in-flight over the WAN or at rest for target storage such as secondary disk or tape).
A good way to think of this type of ISA is as an integrated storage adapter and low-powered Linux or Windows server on a PCIe or PCI-X adapter card. The value to both the user and system vendor can be enormous from the reduction in dedicated appliances/servers in the storage network, fewer cables, less power, cooling, real estate, etc. This type of ISA definitely makes sense based on the application being offloaded.
Unfortunately, there are currently no standards for ISAs and there probably won't be for some time to come. Each vendor's implementation utilizes their own unique ASIC. Even the APIs are different. This means when you select a vendor (as either a vendor or user) you will have to standardize on that vendor for at least this generation of ISAs.
ISAs were developed in part as an offshoot of the iSCSI storage adapters and have their primary value on the Ethernet side of storage networks; however, there are Fibre Channel versions as well.
Be assured that there is definitely value in ISAs. The amount of value to you is a familiar story. It will depend on the application being offloaded.

Finances & Relocation
"Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure nineteen six, result happiness. Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure twenty pound ought and six, result misery."Charles Dickens
Wise words! Learning to live responsibly within your means can be a challenge, and it can also be very empowering. Many college students are all too familiar with debt, whether it be credit cards, students loans, auto loans, or otherwise.
As you make your transition away from college life, we encourage you to start developing your own, individualized plan for managing your finances. It is important to understand how much you need to support yourself so that you can make informed decisions regarding salary offers and negotiation.
One of the best places to start is to create a monthly budget. You can download a sample budget here. Another very popular resource among recent graduates is mint.com, which is a free budgeting and financial planning site.
The earlier you start saving for retirement, the better off you'll be. For example, if you consistently put $300 per month into an account that yields roughly an 8% return (e.g. a moderately aggressive money market mutual fund), starting at age 22, your yield by age 62 would be $1,047,302! By comparison's sake, starting at 32 would lead to a yield of $447,108, and at 42 a yield of only $176,706. That's a big difference.
Your employer may also offer a retirement plan (e.g. 401k, 403b) that provides another opportunity to start contributing to your retirement at an early age. Many employers offer matching contributions programs, where they will match however much you put in, up to a certain percentage.
It may also be a good idea to talk with a financial advisor about opening a Roth or Traditional IRA.
It's never too early to start thinking about your financial future, and there is a wealth of resources available to you, in print and online, to help you get started. See the references below for further exploration into the subject.
Many students are excited by the prospect of moving to a new geographic area; in many cases, it may be a necessary component of your job search! Moving to a new city can be a daunting task — new cost of living, finding housing, and establishing social connections — but there are many resources to help get you started. You might consider contacting the Office of Alumni Relations to see if there is an active Valpo alumni club in the area (or perhaps they can put you in touch with someone specific). LinkedIn is also an excellent tool for finding connections in a new region. With regards to housing, apartmentlist.com is very handy for locating available apartments across the U.S., and apartmentratings.com is a reliable resource for reviews of rental properties. For cost of living comparison data, check out Sperling's Best Places.
