Based on the numbers provided by this ( http://overthecap.com/ ) site, I've found an interesting conclusion.
Basically we are a defense oriented team, I guess, however we pay way more to the other side of the ball.
I compered the same cap numbers on the NFC Playoff teams, and it seems, we pay the most money /player on the offensive side, and we pay the least at the defensive side of the ball.
It is kind of surprising, because I think we have more talent in the D#. These numbers are up to date, so Harvin and the others are included. As I was thinking about this, I figured an answer.
We have some serious talent under rookie contract in the D#, such like Wagner,Sherm,BB and Wright.
In 1 or 2 years we have to extend those contracts, so we can not afford to spend this kind of money in the O#!
The point is, the fact, we've found some above avarage players in the late rounds, makes us room for this year, to spend "their" money to upgrading the O#, and getting difference makers like Harvin. Agree?
p.s. : Forgive the lack of spelling, english is not my first language.
O# : 30 players / 80 million ---> 2.66m/p
D#: 34 players / 53.4 million ---> 1.57m/p
ST#: 2 milion
O#: 31p / 59.6 m ---> 1.9m/p
D#: 27p / 58 m ---> 2.1m/p

Sorry I've been on hiatus for a (very long) while, I've been taking some time off to recover from my leg injury and contemplate the direction of my life (in other words: prospective universities, please accept me). To make amends, here is a playlist of some tracks that I've been listening to as Autumn drips away, and when I'm in need of background music for morning commutes.
Happy Tuesday everyone!

Bill Auberlen, current M3 GT2 driver and previous BMW aerobatics practitioner, takes us to a magical place. This is what it sounds like nestled in the cockpit of a McLaren F1 GTR, utterly enveloped in that howling V12.
This video popped up on Axis of Oversteer the other day and we can't get that unbelievable sound out of our heads. We doubt that the other folks at BMW's travelling Oktoberfest, this year at Barber Motorsports Park, have had it much different. Can you imagine a race-spec McLaren F1 tearing into your rear-view mirror?
Is it a wail? A howl? A roar? Listen to this platonic ideal of an engine note and decide for yourself.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is an independent federal regulatory agency that was created in 1972 by Congress in the Consumer Product Safety Act. CPSC has jurisdiction over about 15,000 types of consumer products, from automatic-drip coffee makers to toys to lawn mowers. Some types of products, however, are covered by other federal agencies. For example, cars, trucks and motorcycles are covered by the Department of Transportation; drugs and cosmetics are covered by the Food and Drug Administration; alcohol, tobacco and firearms are covered by the Department of the Treasury. CPSC works to reduce the risk of injuries and deaths from consumer products by: developing voluntary standards with industry; issuing and enforcing mandatory standards: banning consumer products if no feasible standard would adequately protect the public; obtaining the recall of products or arranging for their repair; conducting research on potential product hazards; informing and educating consumers through the media, state and local governments, private organizations, and by responding to consumer inquiries.

|Original Image by Library Girl
As I shared a few weeks ago, I took the first step towards this goal by creating my first ever Flickr space. (See the link to "my photos" above). On one hand, it seems strange that it's taken me so long to get on the Flickr bandwagon - after all, I've used Flickr for years, but only as an image source, not as a space to share my own photos.
This is partly because, I've never considered myself much of a photographer. Photography is an art I greatly admire, but I've never been very good at it. Then, two years ago, I decided to tackle a 365 project - that is, I decided I'd take and post a photo every day for a year. Again, I didn't consider myself much of a photographer, but I'd seen members of my PLN post their daily photos and, frankly, I just wanted to be a part of it. Plus, I thought it might be a fun way to capture memories - a way to keep a daily journal, of sorts, but without tying myself down to more writing. In short, I did it on a whim.
Now, starting my 3rd year of taking and posting a photo a day, it's become a part of my routine that I treasure.
Still, as 2012 drew to a close, and the prospect of committing myself to another year of daily amateur photography loomed ahead, I toyed with stopping. After all, there are days that I just don't want to take a picture. Sometimes I'm too tired, sometimes too busy, and sometimes a day comes along that I just really, really don't want to remember. Plus, if I do get behind (which happens a lot) I feel guilty publishing 15 photos on a single day - it seems a little like cheating. So, I thought about calling it quits. But then I got some much needed feedback from friends and strangers looking to start their own 365day photo challenge, and I knew that I couldn't give it up and that, deep down, I didn't really want to.
The bottom line is, I'm really busy. I travel a lot. And when I am home, I run around like a maniac most of the time. And, if I'm really, really honest, then I have to admit that way more than 8 hours of my day are devoted to work, so... forcing myself to stop, take a walk, look at the world and find something interesting to point my camera at is a GOOD thing. It provides me with a little balance - which I REALLY need. And I bet I am not the only one.
Anyway, this year, I've added the additional challenge of taking images that I think might make good presentation slides and then compiling them in my "Picture This: Library Girl Images to Use and Share" photo set. The one above is my latest addition. I've also included the same image, but without the quote, so you can add your own words of inspiration. One note: all the images in this set are licensed under Creative Commons, so if you want to use them, go crazy! (Just remember, the license is for non-commercial use and requires attribution, so no cheating!)
Having said that, I've always thought that photography and photo editing were activities that were great for kids: taking photos is fun and editing them taps into their creativity! But, now, more than ever, there's a case to be made that doing so also addresses specific learning objectives. For example, check out this 8th grade Common Core State Standard.
Note: This is a READING standard not a technology standard. Now, say what you want about the Common Core, but this standard sets a high bar. Instead of just asking kids to present information, it asks them to communicate through their presentations - and to select the best mediums with which to do that. The difference may be subtle, but it's a big one. What's more, it requires a skill that many adults have yet to master. (Just think about all those "death by powerpoint" presentations you've had to sit through!) Plus, this standards affords us new ways to assess whether or not kids possess a conceptual understanding of abstract topics. For example, it's one thing for kids to be able to recite a definition of a literary device, like mood, from memory, or to pick out that definition from a set of four choices, but it's quite another for them to edit a creative work in order to communicate different examples of mood - and then explain how the mood affects the consumer of the work. In addition, what better place than the library, with its wealth of resources, (both digital and print), for this type of instruction to take place? Indeed, this is a great way for us to support our English/Language Arts teachers by providing kids with opportunities to sharpen these skills through the creation of multimedia projects. Additionally, after school clubs that use photo editing are a way to sneak learning objectives in to experiences that, for kids, seem to have more "real life" applications.
Plus, there's just so many neat photo editing tools out there that even the most novice photographer can create a product to be proud of. Shoot! If *I* can do it, anybody can!
So... I thought I'd end this post by listing some of my favorite photo editing and sharing tools. These are the apps I use most - and, yes, I'm focusing on mobile apps because all of the photos I share are taken with my iPhone 4. I don't have a fancy camera, and although I've thought about buying one, I probably wouldn't know how to use it! However, if you're looking for web tools for photo editing, I suggest you check out my pal Gwyneth Jones' posts about Pic Monkey - the web based photo editing service that stole her heart after Picnik went bye bye. Gwyneth says Pic Monkey is GREAT and when Gwyeth talks, I listen! :)
And now onto the apps...
|FX Photo Studio
FX Photo Studio is the first photo editing app that I ever fell in love with. In fact, I'd say a good 50% of the photos I took that first year were edited with this app, which is only available for iPhone. What I liked about it then, (and still do), is that it's super easy to use. There's well over 100 preset filters which look really cool on their own, but that you can also adjust easily. You can star filters to create a favorites list and there's many options for sharing photos. The downside, for me, was that the saved images are reduced in size and quality - not a huge amount - but as I started sharing my photos more during professional presentations, the more I needed an app that did not cut down the pixels. I still use this app from time to time and definitely recommend it for students and, really, to anyone who is just getting started. It's super easy and the results are fab.
|Color Splash
|Word Foto
|Insta Weather /Insta Place
|Snap Dot
Finally, this post wouldn't be complete without mentioning the Flickr app - which is really outstanding. I am truly amazed by all its functionality.
Finally, to those who are thinking about tackling the 365 photo journey, I say go for it. My only words of advice are a) give yourself permission to play catch-up when you get behind (because, trust me, you will) b) have fun! There are no rules except the ones you make up - so don't make any up, and c) consider licensing your photos using Creative Commons. If you're not a professional photographer and don't earn your living through your art, then why not share? Who knows how many people you will inspire? (AND if you are planning on helping kids create and edit their photos, by all means, talk to them about licensing their works. Teach them about Creative Commons and make yours a community of sharing where licensing and attribution are just part of the process - not something you *might* get in trouble for *if* you get caught).
Oh... and if you decide to play along, let me know! Tag me on Twitter so I can follow your journey. I'd love to know what the world looks like through your lens.

Caring for a child with diabetes is a 24-hour-a-day, seven-day-a-week job. It's often very stressful, because even when you do everything right, blood sugars sometimes are too low or too high. Yet in spite of the enormous challenge of caring for a child with diabetes, married couples need to find time for themselves. They need to spend time away from diabetes, even if just for a couple hours a week.
During the summer, diabetes summer camp can offer a break for parents, while at the same time providing a great experience for kids. So can CWD's Friends for Life annual conference. But what about other times of the year?
Finding an older babysitter, particularly a teen with diabetes, can help parents feel more comfortable about getting out of the house. With cell phones, and especially phones with text messaging capability, parents can keep in touch with their babysitter and keep informed about blood glucose readings. For example, a babysitter can send a text message with blood glucose values to the parents throughout the night. That way parents can enjoy some time away without worrying quite as much about what's happening at home. (Be sure to put your phone on silent during the movie!) Our Family Support Network can help you find a babysitter near you. And if you're willing to babysit, please become part of the Family Support Network to help out other parents near you.
Regardless of how you do it, it's important for parents to take some time to themselves every now and then, to recharge themselves, and to keep their marriage healthy.
The results of this poll are very similar to the same poll we've run over the years.

A doctoral program includes more than just attending and passing courses. As the highest level of formal learning, it is important to develop skills in scholarly writing, literature reviews, critical analysis, and making recommendations. These skills transfer to the dissertation process and the colloquium provides a strong foundation upon which to build.
After completing the core foundations and research courses, doctoral students are asked to begin to explore the literature about a chosen topic that will eventually lead to a dissertation topic. According to our doctoral handbook,
"This requires the student to write a scholarly paper and to present that paper in a formal, public seminar to the educational community. Presentations are scheduled each summer. The scholarly expectation is that the paper will not be simply descriptive, but will also include (the student's and not someone else's) analysis and evaluation. This will generally require the student to state and defend his/her own thesis about the topic."
After multiple edited drafts of the paper, the students present their papers in formal and public forums that are held each summer. Students present their papers in a research presentation format. They are limited to 20 minutes that is followed by a question and answer period. This format is modeled after the format of a research conference.

Did you also start the new year with a handful of good intentions? And did you stick to them? Are you taking them seriously, or have you postponed "more exercise, more salad and less alcohol" to 2015?
Over a period of 5 days Nicole Loos was on the go in Manhattan with the Tamron SP 24-70mm f2.8 Di VC USD. In the interview she reports on getting to the best photos spots in the metropolis.
We seem to live in a camera world with untold possibilities. Whilst photographers had mainly to be satisfied with ISO 400 sensitivities when films were analogue, extreme settings of ISO 12,800 or 25,600 can be chosen today on modern system cameras.
No need for a really good photo to be always exactly focussed! – That may sound a little strange. However this will be less surprising after having been on the latest Tamron Workshop in the Sächsischer Schweiz National Park. For three days the 13 participants had every opportunity of looking over the shoulder of professional photographer Jürgen Müller.
Camera shake is the most common reason for blurry images. This is caused by an involuntary movement of the camera during the exposure time. The longer the exposure, the more susceptible a photo is to camera shake. However, with a few tricks, and using the VC image stabilization, the risk of camera shake can effectively be minimized.

Special Olympians Hit the Slopes on Granite Peak
Submitted: 01/20/2013
- The weather didn't cooperate this weekend for the Special Olympics Wisconsin Winter Games in Wausau. Three hundred athletes were expected for the event Saturday. The snowshoe and cross country ski events had to be canceled due to lack of snow. But 35 competitors still got to hit the slopes at Granite Peak for snowboarding and alpine skiing. One of the snowboarders competing Saturday may have been even more excited for another event coming up. Dana Shilts from Neillsville, Wisconsin will travel to South Korea to compete for Team USA in the Special Olympics."This is my first time competing in a world games. I'm very excited. My number one supporter is coming with me, so I'm very excited," says Shilts, who is taking her mother with her to South Korea.Three Wisconsin athletes made Team USA. Jason Suino from Hayward will compete in cross country, and Alexander Guild from De Pere will snowshoe. Organizers say these athletes are what make volunteering worth it."The athletes is Special Olympics represent probably the truest example of sports; people who are in this just for the pure enjoyment of being in sports. We don't have the types of sportsmanship issues that a lot of other organizations have. It's just when you see the difference it makes in an athlete's life; not just the joy of competing and getting an award, but what they're able to accomplish, and what they're able to do," says Bob Whitehead.Team USA leaves for South Korea this Wednesday.

What You Need to Know About Ethanol and Boat Insurance Before You Put the Boat Away

ALEXANDRIA, Va., September 23, 2013 – Are you putting your boat away for winter soon? Boat Owners Association of The United States (BoatUS) says recreational boat owners need to take special precautions with E-10 gas and review their insurance policy before they put their boat to bed for a long winter's nap. Otherwise, they may be in for trouble next spring when they try to start the engine:
Keep ethanol at bay: Today it's highly likely that your boat's gasoline contains a mixture of up to 10% ethanol, which is known to damage engines and boat fuel systems, especially over the long winter storage season. If you have a portable gas tank on your boat, try to use as much gas as possible before you put the boat away at the end of the season. Any remaining gas or gas-and-oil mix that's left in the portable tank can be put in your car or outdoor power equipment, respectively. The goal here is to use it up as quickly as possible.
If your boat has a built-in gas tank that cannot be emptied, add a fuel stabilizer, and then fill the tank as much as possible, leaving just a smidgen of room for expansion. This will greatly reduce the amount of moisture laden-air that can enter through the tank's vent and potentially condense on inside tank walls over the long storage season. The goal here is to prevent water from being absorbed into the gas and ethanol mixture, which if left unchecked, results in phase separation and damage to the boat's fuel system and motor. For a more detailed look at ethanol and winter storage, go to www.BoatUS.com/seaworthy/ethanolwinter.asp.
Look for "ice and freeze coverage" in your boat's insurance policy: Many boat owners think they don't have to worry about freeze damage if they live in temperate states or if they keep their boat in an indoor, heated storage area in Northern states. But every year, BoatUS gets multiple freeze damage claims for boats in Southern states hit by a hard freeze and for boats stored in indoor facilities in Northern states where a storm took out the power. So the first rule of winter storage for any boat is to winterize it properly.
Even then, small winterizing mistakes like not draining all of the areas of the raw water system can easily destroy an engine. For that reason, BoatUS recommends ice and freeze coverage just in case something got overlooked when the boat was winterized. Typically offered as a policy "rider" to boats stored in northern climates, it's inexpensive (BoatUS offers the add-on coverage for as low as $20) and can go a long way toward protecting you from a catastrophic engine loss. Ice and freeze coverage may also be a smart option for do-it-yourselfers who want peace of mind, or for trailer boaters who store their boat in a heated garage or travel between warm and cold states.
However, there is a deadline to purchase this coverage as most insurers don't offer it once temperatures get cold, usually the end of October. BoatUS says that boats in warmer, temperate states often have this feature added to their policy automatically, but you should check with your insurer.For more information on boat insurance or ice and freeze coverage, go to www.BoatUS.com/insurance or call 800-283-2883.

Click on each country to read about its apparitions
Nearly 2,000 years ago, the author of the Letter to the Hebrews wrote that "In times past, God spoke in partial and various ways to our ancestors through the prophets; in these last days, he spoke to us through a son" (Heb 1:1-2). God did not abandon the world after creating it; instead, he revealed himself to our first parents, made a covenant with Noah, chose Abraham to be the father of a multitude of nations and formed his people of Israel.
In the fullness of time, God "said everything in his Word," as the Catechism of the Catholic Church teaches. "Christ, the Son of God made man, is the Father's one, perfect and unsurpassable word. In him he has said everything; there will be no other word than this one ... No new public revelation is to be expected before the glorious manifestation of our Lord Jesus Christ" (Nos. 65-66).
Even though God has already "said everything" through Jesus Christ, some Christians throughout the centuries have attested that they have seen or heard Jesus, the angels or the saints, especially the Blessed Mother. Thus "throughout the ages, there have been so-called 'private' revelations, some of which have been recognized by the authority of the Church," as the catechism teaches (No. 67). "They do not belong, however, to the deposit of faith. It is not their role to improve or complete Christ's definitive Revelation, but to help live more fully by it in a certain period of history."
Pope Benedict XVI reflected on private revelation in his 2010 apostolic exhortation Verbum Domini ("The Word of the Lord"). "Ecclesiastical approval of a private revelation essentially means that its message contains nothing contrary to faith and morals," he wrote; "it is licit to make it public and the faithful are authorized to give to it their prudent adhesion" (No. 46).
"A private revelation can introduce new emphases, give rise to new forms of piety, or deepen older ones," Pope Benedict continued. "It can have a certain prophetic character and can be a valuable aid for better understanding and living the Gospel at a certain time; consequently it should not be treated lightly. It is a help which is proffered, but its use is not obligatory."
What follows is a description of nine of the most influential approved Marian apparitions of the past five centuries.
On Dec. 9-12, 1531, Our Lady appeared four times to St. Juan Diego Cuauhtlatoatzin (1474-1548), a member of the Chichimeca people and a convert, on the hill of Tepeyac near Mexico City.
"Know for certain, least of my sons, that I am the perfect and perpetual Virgin Mary, mother of Jesus, the true God, through whom everything lives, the Lord of all things near and far, the master of heaven and earth," she said. "It is my earnest wish that a temple be built here to my honor. Here I will demonstrate, I will manifest, I will give all my love, my compassion, my help and my protection to the people."
Our Lady asked Juan Diego to make known her request to Bishop Juan de Zumárraga. The bishop asked for a sign during a visit with Juan Diego. When he saw Our Lady again, she directed him to a hilltop where he saw a flower garden; he cut the roses and placed them in his cloak, or tilma. When he returned to the bishop, he opened his tilma; the roses fell to the floor, and the image of Our Lady of Guadalupe appeared miraculously on his tilma.
Numerous popes have referred to Our Lady of Guadalupe, and St. John Paul II visited her basilica in 1979, 1990, 1999 and 2002.
U.S. shrine: National Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe, Mother of the Americas (Allentown, Pa.)
In 1932 and 1933, Our Lady appeared 33 times to five children in Belgium. Revealing herself as the "Immaculate Virgin" and as "the Mother of God, Queen of Heaven," she asked for a chapel to be built and said, "I will convert sinners." Bishop André Marie Charue of Namur declared the apparitions supernatural in 1949.
St. John Paul II offered Mass at the shrine in 1985. He preached, "This place has become an important center of Marian pilgrimage, for the whole of Belgium and neighboring countries, a privileged place of prayer and renewal, where the faithful feel in a special way the presence of Mary, Immaculate Virgin, the Queen of Heaven, and her powerful intercession for the conversion of sinners."
In 1933, the Blessed Mother appeared eight times to a poor 11-year-old girl in Belgium. "I am the Virgin of the poor," she said to Mariette Beco, and led her to a spring "reserved for all nations, for the sick." Our Lady asked for the construction of a "small chapel" and said, "I come to relieve suffering."
The chapel was built in 1933, and Bishop Louis-Joseph Kerkhofs of Liège declared the apparitions supernatural in 1949. St. John Paul II offered Mass at the shrine of Our Lady of Banneux in 1985, and Pope Benedict XVI wrote a letter in 2008 to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the apparitions.
"In 1933, a few years before the Second World War, Mary appeared in Banneux as a messenger of peace," St. John Paul II said in a 1999 letter. "In a certain way she was summoning the leaders of society to become the artisans of peace and educators of peoples, inviting each person to care for his brothers and sisters, the lowliest, the most despised and the suffering, who are all beloved by God."
U.S. shrine: Shrine of Our Lady, Virgin of the Poor (New Hope, Tenn.)
In 1830, the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared three times to St. Catherine Labouré (1806-76), a member of the Daughters of Charity of Saint Vincent de Paul. The second time, she saw Mary crushing a serpent, with rays coming forth from her hands. She also saw the words, "O Mary conceived without sin pray for us who have recourse to you," and heard a voice say, "Have a medal made on this model. Those who will wear it with confidence will receive great graces." In time, the archbishop of Paris consented to the request.
In 1980, St. John Paul II made a pilgrimage to the chapel in Paris where St. Catherine saw the apparitions. "You obtain from God, for us, all these graces that the rays of light that radiate from your open hands symbolize, on the sole condition that we dare to ask them of you, that we ourselves approach you with the confidence, the boldness, the simplicity of a child," he prayed.
U.S. shrine: Shrine Chapel, Central Association of the Miraculous Medal (Philadelphia)
In 1846, Our Lady appeared to two French children, Maximin Giraud (1835-75) and Mélanie Calvat (1831-1904), in southeastern France. She deplored sins of blasphemy, the refusal of most villagers to attend Mass in the summer and the lack of fidelity to Lenten discipline.
"If my people do not obey, I shall be compelled to loose my son's arm," she warned. "It is so heavy I can no longer restrain it." Bishop Philibert de Bruillard of Grenoble approved the apparition in 1851.
"Mary, Mother full of love, in this place showed her sadness at the moral evil of humanity," Pope St. John Paul II wrote in a letter marking the 150th anniversary of the apparition. "Through her tears, she helps us to better understand the painful gravity of sin, of the rejection of God, but also the passionate fidelity that her son keeps toward her children — he, the redeemer whose love is wounded by forgetfulness and refusal."
U.S. shrine: National Shrine of Our Lady of La Salette (Attleboro, Mass.)
Our Lady appeared 18 times to St. Bernadette Soubirous (1844-79) in Lourdes, a town in southwestern France.
"From Feb. 11 to July 16, 1858, the Blessed Virgin Mary was pleased, as a new favor, to manifest herself in the territory of the Pyrenees to a pious and pure child of a poor, hardworking, Christian family," Pope Pius XII wrote in a 1957 encyclical. Our Lady said on one occasion, "Penance! Penance! Penance! Pray to God for sinners. Kiss the ground as an act of penance for sinners." After a spring began to flow, Our Lady said, "Go, tell the priests to come here in procession and to build a chapel here." When Bernadette asked her to identify herself, she declared, "I am the Immaculate Conception."
Bishop Bertrand-Sévère Mascarou-Laurence of Tarbes-et-Lourdes approved the apparitions in 1862. In 1911, St. Pius X wrote that the Lourdes shrine "surpasses in glory, it seems, all others in the Catholic world." St. John Paul made pilgrimages there in 1983 and 2004, as did Pope Benedict XVI in 2008.
U.S. shrine: National Shrine Grotto of Lourdes (Emmitsburg, Md.)
In 1664, the Blessed Virgin began to appear frequently to Venerable Benoîte Rencurel (1647-1718), an illiterate shepherd girl in Saint-Étienne-le-Laus, a tiny village in southeastern France. She was entrusted with the task of constructing a church and a house for priests so they could hear pilgrims' confessions.
In 1665, the local bishop approved the construction of a shrine, and 130,000 pilgrims flocked to Laus within 18 months. There were reports of numerous conversions and healings. Rencurel became a Third Order Dominican and lived a life of prayer and penance near the shrine. The Blessed Mother continued to appear to Rencurel until her death in 1718.
In 2008, after consulting with the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Bishop Jean-Michel di Falco Leandri of Gap, France, approved the Marian apparitions that took place during the last 54 years of Rencurel's life. In 2009, Pope Benedict XVI declared that Rencurel lived the virtues heroically and conferred upon her the title Servant of God.
In 1917, Our Lady of the Rosary appeared for six consecutive months to three Portuguese children: Lúcia Santos (1907-2005), Blessed Jacinta Marto (1910-20), and Blessed Francisco Marto (1908-19). Her message was one of prayer, atonement and devotion to her Immaculate Heart.
"Say the Rosary every day to bring peace to the world and an end to the war," she said. "And after each one of the mysteries, my children, I want you to pray in this way: O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fire of hell. Take all souls to heaven, especially those who are most in need."
"Make sacrifices for sinners and say often, especially while making a sacrifice: O Jesus, this is for love of Thee, for the conversion of sinners, and in reparation for offences committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary," she added. She revealed to the children a three-part secret: a vision of hell, a request for the First Saturday devotion and consecration of Russia to the Immaculate Heart, and the killing of a bishop dressed in white, along with other clergy, religious and laity. Pope Pius XII, Pope Paul VI, St. John Paul II and Pope Francis have consecrated the world to Mary's Immaculate Heart, and the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith released text of the third part of the secret in 2000, along with commentary.
During the final apparition on Oct. 13, Our Lady requested the construction of a chapel, and 70,000 onlookers witnessed the sun dance in the sky. Bishop José Alves Correia da Silva of Leiria-Fátima approved the apparitions in 1930, and Pope Paul VI (1967), Pope St. John Paul II (1982, 1991, 2000), and Pope Benedict XVI (2010) all made pilgrimages there.
U.S. shrine: Basilica of the National Shrine of Our Lady of Fatima (Lewiston, N.Y.)
In 1879, 15 people of all ages in Knock, Ireland, witnessed an apparition of the Blessed Mother, St. Joseph and St. John the Evangelist on a rainy evening; the Blessed Mother prayed but did not speak. Within months, Archbishop John McHale of Tuam found their testimony credible, and the site soon became a place of pilgrimage.
In 1979, St. John Paul II celebrated Mass at Knock and dedicated the Basilica of Our Lady, Queen of Ireland. "For a whole century now, you have sanctified this place of pilgrimage through your рrауеrs, through your sacrifice, through your penance," he preached. "All those who have come here have received blessings through the intercession of Mary."
"From that day of grace, 21 August 1879, until this very day, the sick and suffering, people handicapped in body or mind, troubled in their faith or their conscience, all have been healed, comforted and confirmed in their faith because they trusted that the mother of God would lead them to her son, Jesus," he added.

With a Little Help From TELUS
By Don Smith
June 11, 2011
I know that this is probably a bit of hypocritical statement to make for a person that writes about their life in a public blog but I am actually quite a private person. There are certain aspects of my life that I just prefer not to expose through this medium. However I sometimes feel compelled to be public about those personal topics if it means that the information could assist other people. Such is the case with the following article that has been written about me by my employer TELUS Communications. The spirit of the article is really to highlight how persons living with HIV can achieve many of their personal goals if they have access to treatment and support along the way. It is not meant to be interpreted as some grandiose personal statement, a "hey look at what I did". Rather I hope it shows that we all win when an employer embraces diversity and provides its team with tools/benefits that help them achieve both career and personal goals.

Race Across America: Team4HIV Hope Cycles to Raise Awareness and to Win
Team 4 HIV Hope
The Race Across America is a bicycle race in which cyclists ride 3,000 miles/4,800km from Oceanside, Calif., to Annapolis, Md., in June each year. There is about 110,000 feet of climbing involved. This year for relay teams begins on June 18.
RAAM is not a stage race such as the Tour de France. In RAAM, there is only one stage: start to finish. It is essentially a time trial, but a very long one! Challenges include heat, deserts, violent winds, thunderstorms, riding at night, sleep deprivation, muscle injuries and mental acuity. And for the HIV-positive riders, there are more health challenges. An HIV-trained nurse is part of their crew.

Chair Taylor called the meeting to order.
Chair Taylor stated that Legislature recently passed an 8 percent tuition increase for in-state undergraduate students. Plus, the Legislature granted all universities authority to charge undergraduate students up to 7 percent differential tuition. He asked President Delaney to elaborate.
President Delaney clarified that the universities had authority to increase in-state graduate tuition and out-of-state fees for undergraduate and graduate students by up to 15 percent. He also clarified that universities had authority to add a 5 percent technology fee.
President Delaney made clear that the Legislature approved the 8 percent tuition increase, which would be added to the base tuition for in-state undergraduate students. He clarified that the universities could ask the Board of Governors (BOG) to approve an additional increase up to 7 percent.
President Delaney talked about the economy, noting that additional downturns were possible but would likely to be less than the cutbacks we have seen to date. He spoke about the Legislature's efforts to adjust, noting that the Federal stimulus plan would help over the next two years but other sources would have to be identified to replace these dollars before the third year. President Delaney stated that for this reason, the administration was recommending approval of the full 7 percent differential tuition but not, at this time, recommending approval for the 5 percent technology fee.
President Delaney stated that the administration was sensitive to the burden the tuition increase would place on students, especially in tough economic times. He clarified that 30 percent of tuition dollars would go to need-based financial aid.
Trustees discussed the implications on enrollment. The administration responded that there was no evidence to suggest enrollment would be affected by the tuition increase.
Trustees asked for clarification that 30 percent of tuition would go to need-based assistance. The administration stated that that amount was correct.
Trustees asked for clarification that the tuition differential would not apply to student who enrolled prior to July 1, 2007 and students with Florida Prepaid Tuition plans. The administration stated that this was correct.
The administration stated that they were recommending an increase in in-state undergraduate and graduate tuition by 15 percent and an increase in out-of-state fees by the same 15 percent.
Trustee Barnes asked that the record reflect the students' support of President Delaney. Trustee Barnes also asked that the record reflect that Student Government was requesting that the administration prepare a financial report providing clear and detailed answers regarding tuition.
Trustee Barnes spoke about a survey conducted on 2,000 students which revealed that 67 percent would rather see program closures and layoffs than a tuition increase. He mentioned that many students did not qualify for financial aid and an increase of this magnitude would negatively impact these students. Trustee Barnes asked that consideration be given to raising tuition by an amount less than 7 percent differential. He noted that any amount less would be significant to students.
President Delaney stated that the administration was aware of the impact on students but wanted to reiterate that the administration was foregoing the 5 percent technology fee, which was an effort to lessen the impact on students.
Trustees discussed the tuition increase, including the cumulative budget reduction over the past three years, noting that other universities were increasing tuition and fees by up to 20 percent when they added in the technology fee. Additional justifications included the state's ranking which was near the bottom for tuition and the need to hire and retain quality faculty. Trustees asked the administration to communicate to students why the tuition increase was important.
Chair Taylor expressed confidence in the administration's efforts in identifying the needs of the university. He stated that the Board was confident that the administration was keeping the university's values in place and that the students would benefit.
Chair Taylor asked for a MOTION for approval to increase in-state undergraduate and graduate tuition by 15 percent and increase out-of-state fees by the same 15 percent. The MOTION was offered by Trustee Kendrick and seconded by Trustee Coggin. The MOTION was opposed by Trustee Barnes. The MOTION was carried with one dissenting vote.
Chair Taylor adjourned the meeting.

On Saturday, October 26, the Historic Daniel Boone Home will host a "birthday party" to celebrate the 268th anniversary of America's first and most revered pioneer. The activities will include pioneer games, sing-alongs, craft projects, party favors and a special birthday cake. The party will run from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.
"Every year we commemorate Daniel's birthday in some special way," said Pam Jensen, guest services manager at the Boone Home. "This year, we are having a family birthday party, and we want all of Daniel's 'friends and neighbors' to join us."
"Daniel also likes birthday presents," Jensen added with a smile, "especially native perennial plants, iris and daffodil bulbs, and natural materials that can be used in making holiday decorations. We hope our guests will bring Daniel lots of birthday presents."
In addition to the birthday party, the Boone Home is having a Barn Sale on the same day. The sale will begin at 9 Saturday morning.
"We are cleaning out an important historic barn," said James Gladwin, Director of the Boone Campus, "and we have come across a number of interesting old things that many people might want – so we decided to have a sale. Everything will be offered at yard sale prices, and we want everything to go!"
Gladwin emphasized that nothing from the Boone Home museum collections is included in this sale.
"These are not Boone or Boone family items we are selling; they are mostly household and building items that were left here by people who lived on the property before the Boone Home was a public history house."
Gladwin said that furniture, kitchenware, collectibles, building supplies, vintage clothing and textiles, vintage appliances, and all sorts of "curiosities" would be available at the sale.
For additional information on Daniel Boone's Birthday Party or the Barn Sale, call the Boone Home at (636) 798-2005.

Who Says EJB 2.1 is Too Hard?
EJBs, and in particular the EJB 2.1 spec, have a reputation of being powerful but complex. I have seen more arguments against using Java/J2EE because EJBs are too complex than for any other reason, and from many different sources. Common wisdom seems to be that J2EE and EJBs are synonymous; hence, J2EE is too complex to use.
Obviously, even casual inspection of this reasoning shows the flaws. For one thing, EJBs are just a part of the J2EE specification (or the Java EE specification as it is now known), and need not be used at all. I also take issue that the complexity is somehow the fault of EJBs. Certainly, they could be simplified (and EJB 3.0 goes a long way to doing that), but the real problem is that they deal with a very complex problem domain. Delivering components that have transactional support, security, location transparency, discovery, scalability and concurrency is not easy.
And that is what this article is about. It is intended to demonstrate that EJBs, even in their 2.1 form, need not be so scary, that you can jump in and with little time and effort have a working system that uses the full strength EJB architecture. Between using NetBeans to create the EJB, Sun App Server 8.1 to deploy it, and Java Studio Creator to consume it, you will not see a deployment descriptor, lookup code, or anything else complex (unless you really want to).
First Steps
This article can either be used as an introduction to the approach and tools available, or as a click-along tutorial. If you intend to do the latter, you will need to download NetBeans and Java Studio Creator 2 EA 2:
For NetBeans, you will need to download at least NetBeans 4.1. You can choose to download the NetBeans 5.0 Beta, but should know that if you do so you should get a package that includes the Sun App Server PE 8.1 (or download it separately). Unless you have the app server and have configured NetBeans to know about it, you will not be able to create an enterprise project in NetBeans.Download NetBeans from http://www.netbeans.org.
For Java Studio Creator, you need to get the Early Access 2 release of Creator 2. To do this, go to http://developers.sun.com/prodtech/javatools/jscreator/ea/jsc2/index.html and register; you then will be able to download the EA2 version of Creator 2 that has all of the new EJB support.
This article demonstrates a very narrow part of the whole field of EJB creation and consumption. For one thing, I intend to demonstrate Session Beans only (I prefer using only Session beans for remote APIs) and will also skip the persistence part, prefering to concentrate on the creation of an API and the consumption within Java Studio Creator.
However, there are some excellent guides and tutorials that do a better job of demonstrating Entity EJBs (for persistence) in NetBeans, and also an alternative one that shows how Hibernate could be used for persistence instead (should that be your preference).
Using NetBeans to Create the Session API
First, you are going to use NetBeans to create your Session EJB-based API. To do this, start NetBeans and:
- From the Welcome page, select New Project.
- In the new project wizard, select Enterprise/EJB Module. Click Next.
- Choose a name for your EJB module (I suggest CreatorDemoEJB).
- Choose a directory for the project.
- For Server, you should have Sun Application Server 8.1 selected. If it is not available, you need to download it and configure it in NetBeans. The easier option is to download the NetBeans distribution that already includes it.
- Leave everything else default and click Finish.
Create a DTO Class
Before you do anything else, you need an object to pass data from the server to the client. You could certainly do this using arrays, but a full DTO (Data Transfer Object) lets you send structured data across from the server, and this will demonstrate some of the richer features in Java Studio Creator.
For this demo, you are going to create an object that holds some typical details about a person (like first and last name, telephone numbers, age, salary, and whether the person is on vacation—this last one is in there as a way to demonstrate boolean values).So, create a new class called PersonDTO:
- In the top left pane, select the Projects tab and find the Source Packages node in the project tree, right-click on it, and select New->Java Class....
- In the dialog, type the name PersonDTO for the class name, and choose a suitable package. Click Finish.
- A new class will be created. Add the following code into it:
- The DTO needs to be serializable, so add implements Serializable to the class definition.
- In the Projects pane, expand the node for the new PersonDTO class, and the node inside that. You should see four nodes named Fields, Constructors, Methods, and Bean Patterns.
- Right-click on Bean Patterns, and select Add->Property. In the dialog, add a property with name lastName and type String. This is the quick way to add new properties without having to write getter and setter methods (they are provided for you).
- Repeat for the following fields: firstName of type String, homeTel of type String, workTel of type String, income of type double, age of type int, and onVacation of type boolean.
- You are not doing any persistence code, so you need some test data. Add the following code to set some up:
public static PersonDTO[] peopleList = null; static { // set up some demo data for the people list peopleList = new PersonDTO[10]; peopleList[0]=new PersonDTO("Bloggs","Fred","770-555-1212", "770-555-2121",55000.00,25,true); peopleList[1]=new PersonDTO("Schmo","Joe","404-555-3434", "404-555-4343",125000.00,62,false); peopleList[2]=new PersonDTO("McTog","Nog","770-555-5555", "770-555-6666",25000.00,17, true); peopleList[3]=new PersonDTO("Pepper","Petey","770-555-5432", "770-555-3456",84378.12,33,false); peopleList[4]=new PersonDTO("Fairlane","Sandy","770-555-9999", "770-555-9898",142222.00,55,true); peopleList[5]=new PersonDTO("Lane","Lois","123-555-8833", "123-555-5544",95000.00,22,false); peopleList[6]=new PersonDTO("Wesley","Tom","770-555-7654", "770-555-6756",48000.00,44,false); peopleList[7]=new PersonDTO("McDunne","Diane","770-555-5275", "770-555-6641",76543.21,51,false); peopleList[8]=new PersonDTO("Burt","George","770-555-8111", "770-555-7222",70000.00,41,false); peopleList[9]=new PersonDTO("Smith","Anne","770-555-5656", "770-555-7878",90000.00,24,true); }
/** * PersonDTO constructor. Takes all fields to produce a ready * populated Person Data Transfer Object * @param last String containing last name * @param first String containing first name * @param homeTel String containing home telephone * @param workTel String containing work telephone * @param income double containing person's income * @param age int age of person * @param onVac boolean flag set to true if person is on vacation */ public PersonDTO(String last,String first,String homeTel, String workTel,double income,int age, boolean onVac) { this.lastName = last; this.firstName = first; this.homeTel = homeTel; this.workTel = workTel; this.income = income; this.age = age; this.onVacation = onVac; }
That's it for your DTO object. Now, on to the EJB.

The Flying Waffle needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 22 designs submitted by 8 freelance designers.
The Flying Waffle
I am looking to start a new restaurant concept. We will be serving fried chicken and waffles. We will be serving in the food truck format. Our crew is made up of a couple recent college grads looking to have some fun while making a few bucks. We are high energy and always on the move.
Our target audience is young and socially connected. The logo will be displayed on the side of the truck. It will also be on all of our paper products used to serve our customers. It will be on all of our social media and our website.
I would like a rectangular (taller than wide). It needs to have feathered chicken wings. I do not want it to have a head or beak. No face on the waffle. Just wings and maybe a tail.
I would like for it to be flying.
As for color. My whole truck is going to be pale yellow. I would like the logo go well with that.
Simple but original.

A good GM diesel car ... has hell frozen over?

HELL, Mich. -- General Motors' passenger-car diesel program has, quite literally, been to Hell and back.
Chevrolet chose this out-of-the-way and ironically named destination for journalists to test drive its Cruze diesel, which began arriving in dealerships this week.
Of course, GM soured the U.S. market for diesel passenger cars in the 1980s with sluggish, noisy, unreliable engines.
But the 2.0-liter turbodiesel that we drove straight to Hell this week should exorcise those demons.
The powertrain is smooth, with ample torque available at low- and mid-range speeds.
Inside, it takes a while to get used to the diesel engine chattering away under the hood of such a small vehicle. But I'd bet most U.S. car buyers would find it quieter and more refined than anything they imagine a diesel car to be.
You can always tell how confident an automaker is in a new model by whether it makes the rival car available for the media drive. And yes, Chevy's event planners had Volkswagen Jetta TDIs on hand for comparison tests.
That made sense. GM engineers benchmarked against the Jetta, and the Cruze diesel beats it in almost every category: More horsepower (140 hp); more torque (258 pounds-feet); a bladder-challenging 700-mile range for one tank of gas.
Even so, I wouldn't expect Chevy to go poaching a bunch of import-biased diesel aficiandos with the Cruze diesel. Those buyers are different breed.
But after driving it, I think Chevy has a much broader opportunity: anyone who wants really good fuel economy that actually meets or exceeds the EPA rating.
The Cruze diesel is rated at 27 in city driving and 46 mpg on the highway. On my 35-mile drive through a mix of country roads and highways, I averaged 43 mpg without really trying.
Even with the steep price premium -- $25,695, including shipping, about $5,200 more than the gasoline-powered Cruze Eco -- the Cruze diesel should reap plenty of incremental sales for Chevy.
And if gas prices spike? Well, then Chevy could -- wait for it -- really raise some hell in the compact segment.

MPjeturs necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 89 diseños de 33 diseñadores freelance.
Looking for an eye-catching logo for our rock band! We would like to use it for a number of things including being displayed on the bass drum, posters, website graphics, CD casings, etc. It needs to standout and be original!
The Mindrollers
We are a rock band. We want to have a strong, artistic logo that people could associate with our name, The Mindrollers. We want to use it for many things so it has to look really good and define us. We were thinking a brain rolling or something that looks like a mind working would be a good place to start but we're pretty open to anything original and eye-catching so please feel free to create! As long as the picture says "The Mindrollers" as you look at it. And we'll need to work together to accomplish this. Expect feedback if we like your design or concept. We will be closely monitoring the contest so as to provide direction! You can check out some rough mixes of 3 of our songs @ our newly published site @ http://www.myspace.com/themindrollers. This could help!
The design should have "The Mindrollers" in it somewhere, clearly legible yet artistic. The style should be in a timeless fashion that isn't going to look dated, ever. Colours should be Red, Black for sure. (and maybe some white too.) We want something that illustrates having your mind blown. Or something rolling in a mind. (Our name is kind of like mindblowers)
Maybe people could try some 60's psychedelic styles, that could work...
Or on equal footing, try something in the style of Led Zeppelin/Pink Floyd Album Covers.
Something original that has that kind of tone.
- No pink.
