Like a black leopard in Ohio, the October 2011 LSAT scores are on the loose.
They made you wait over the weekend, but around 2:00 p.m. PST Monday, the LSAC released the first batch of October LSAT scores — sticking to their trend of releasing scores two days ahead of schedule.
Here's hoping it was worth the wait.
With the release of scores comes the unveiling of the curve. While initial reactions of the LSAT way back around October 1 indicated that it was a pretty standard LSAT, a very lenient curve seems to tell a different story.
For the October 2011 LSAT, test-takers could have missed 13 questions and still scored a 170. They could have scored a 160 if they missed 28 and a 150 if they missed 45. To put that into perspective, this was the most generous curve since December 2009, when students could miss an unheard of 14 and still score a 170.
We'll keep you posted as we hear more. For now, chime in in the comments. And yes, you can talk about specific answers. Also, don't forget to check out Matt Riley's October 2011 LSAT predictions to see how his prognostications panned out.
*UPDATE: We are getting conflicting reports about which section of the October 2011 LSAT was the experimental — leading to the likelihood that there were different experimental sections throughout the country. Among the reports is this little gem: For some students, the fourth section was the experimental section. If this is correct, this would be the first time in the history of the LSAT that the fourth section was experimental (as far we know). We've also had confirmed reports that the second section was experimental. Check your item response sheet on your LSAC page to see which was your experimental section.

What is it?
In simple terms, a cash-out refinance replaces your current mortgage with another loan that:
- Pays off your current mortgage balance and
- Uses the available equity in your home to provide additional funds for other purposes.
When to consider
How do you know if a cash-out refinance is the right move? There's no hard-and-fast answer to that question, but you may want to consider refinancing if any of the following situations apply:
- Interest rates have dropped substantially since the last time you financed your home.
- You intend to stay in your home for several more years.
- You have available equity to provide the cash-out option.
- You can shorten your loan term.
Important questions to think about
With a cash-out refinance, you need to weigh the benefit of how you're going to use the money against the amount of time it will take to pay off the loan. Refinancing may give you a lower interest rate, but if you extend your loan term, you may pay more interest over the life of the loan. Here are some things to think about:
- How many years until the end of the term of your current loan?
- How long is the term of the new loan?
- Are interest rates lower than your current financing?
- How much cash do you need?
- What's the monthly payment amount?
- What's the effect on your taxes?
- What's the total cost of borrowing?
- What's your break-even point?
To help you answer these questions and determine whether a cash-out refinance may help you with your long-term financial goals, contact your home mortgage consultant.

Most people don't know what Dos is with all of Windows GUI apps on its OS. And don't know how to use it until they are forced to do so. First off, Dos doesn't mean (Denial of Service) if that what U were hoping for in this text then I'm sorry and that's really lame. It stands for Disk Operating System. It was use before windows was invented. Ok, now lets explore the power of Dos but lets review a few commads.
md - makes a folder
copy - take a guess!
rd - deletes a folder
cd - changes directories
dir - displays directories and files(also try using with the /p or /w switch)
del - deletes files
< or > - redirection of a command or text
| - pipes one command into another command (ex: dir | more)
ren - renames a file or folder
type - shows the contents of a file
Now the CLI (command-line interface) is kewl to learn if your thinking of coming to Linux and its good practice for a noobie. Now lets explore the often forgotten wonders of Dos's cli to start it up go to Start > then click on Command Prompt or Start > Run > now type without the quotes of course "cmd.exe". You should now have a black box on your screen this is where we will be working from. If U don't know where is the start button on your taskbar study your OS more:-C If your still with me tyype "ver" it tells U what verison of Dos your running mine says: [5.1.2600] 8-] yes 2600 kewl ! Now lets have some phun type "md phun" U now should have a folder on your desktop or harddrive called phun. Then type "rd phun" now its gone. Type cd .. to go to the previous directory or cd directory name (ex: cd windows). What's a pipe U say¿ Let's see try dir | more wow it displays it one page at a time now try dir by itself. It scroll the screen to fast for eyes huh! Type "powerusers rule! > dos.txt now type " type "dos.txt" it displays the contents of the newly created file dos.txt. Now type "wonders of the command-line >> dos.txt" then type "type dos.txt" look at what your file now contains Qewl huh! Now type "the GUI is not as fast as the CLI > dos.txt " and then type "type dos.txt" it now overwritten your newly created file with what U last type. Let's explore some more commands now type "ren c:/dos.txt c:/lame.txt it just rename dos.txt to lame.txt . Noobie's I know your thinking what else can it do type "ping whateveruwant.com > whateveruwant.txt" it stores the info from this command to a file called U guessed it "whateveruwant.txt" To del the files just type "del whateveruwant.txt or whatever U what to delete.
I know most newbies are familiar with notepad but while at the command prompt type "edit or edit.exe" its another text editor like notepad of type notepad.exe or whatever.exe and it will automatically start up whatever *.exe program type . That it for know I hope this exploration of the Dos was kewl and help out fellow noobie's using Windows learn their OS. Cause I had phun writing this text.

It's Sew Easy ( KS Productions is my corproate identity)
We produce many TV shows for PBS and like to update our on air logos often to reflect a contemporary market place. We are a production company with 10 programs currently on PBS daytime - we do only how-to/craft programs such as; Beads Baubles and Jewels (beadsbaublesandjewels.com) Hands On Crafts for Kids (craftsforkids.com) Quilting Arts. (quiltingartstv.com) scrapbook Memories (scrapbookmemoriestv.com) These are national programs with a niche audience for the particular craft. We like a fun, clean look - contemporary color palette.
Contemporary sewers - by contemporary we refer to style not age. - viewers are looking for projects and ideas to enhance their sewing skills and embellish their life with unique apparel and home accents. The focus is on ease of completion - easy enough for beginners but challenging enough and with interesting style to pique the interest of all sewers. We appeal to a young sewer with fresh ideas but never forget our core audience that is 35-60 and more often in a non urban setting. They sew because they love to sew and love to be creative and give creative gifts - they are not sewing to save money. Our viewer is not "home made" - and does not want their finished project to look "home made" - they take pride in what they make! But they do like projects to be quick - they have busy lives! they watch Project Runway and see themselves as a designer but also do not sew that over-the-top runway look. We are on PBS not Bravo!
It's Sew Easy: We need a bright, stylish logo - not cute - more sophisticated. Must contain the title: It's Sew Easy. Needs to include royal or bright blue as one of the colors. Needs to be broad enough to appeal to both a young audience (usually young moms sewing for their kids) and a fashionable older sewer that makes clothing, home dec items . Do NOT include a needle, or thread spool or any other icon image of sewing. Design CAN look like stitches - but remember not cute and not juvenile.
We need
Adobe Illustrator - vector files ( must include individual vector files)
JPEG and PNG images should be no smaller than 720 x 486 pixels.
300 dpi
Final logo version with text and images ,Text separate from images

Letters need to be in separate layers over a transparent background

As they prepare for Wednesday night's SuperLiga 2010 final against Monarcas Morelia, we take a look at the Revs' journey to the title match
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – SuperLiga 2010 has already been a tournament of firsts for the New England Revolution.
They'll look to continue that trend on Wednesday night when they host the SuperLiga 2010 final against Morelia, as a victory would make the Revolution SuperLiga's first-ever two-time champion.
But before we preview the title match, let's take a look back at the Revolution's stellar run through the group stage and the club's dramatic semifinal victory …
Group Stage vs. Pumas UNAM (Mexican Primera División)
Wednesday, July 14 – Gillette Stadium | Watch highlights >>
The Revs entered the tournament on a high note, having defeated the league-leading LA Galaxy in a regular-season match just four days prior to the start of the group stage. They continued to build momentum against Mexican club Pumas UNAM, as rookie forward Zack Schilawski scored the game's only goal in the 18th minute and second-year goalkeeper Bobby Shuttleworth made six saves to guide the Revolution to a 1-0 win.
Scoring chances were at a premium throughout the first half, so it was a bit of surprise when Schilawski broke the deadlock midway through the opening stanza. Marko Perovic created the goal with an in-swinging corner kick and Schilawski wriggled free his marker at the back post before acrobatically rising to poke the ball just inside the post.
The action intensified in the second half as Pumas pushed for an equalizer and the visitors so nearly found it when Israel Castro's deflected shot struck the underside of the crossbar in the 89th minute, but the shot bounced to safety and the Revs held on for a precious 1-0 win to begin play in Group B.
Group Stage vs. Chicago Fire (Major League Soccer)
Saturday, July 17 – Toyota Park | Watch highlights >>
Goalkeeper Matt Reis returned to his starting role after sitting out the group opener and the Revolution defense didn't miss a beat, earning its third straight shutout in all competitions to register another 1-0 win over the Chicago Fire. The victory – combined with a 2-2 draw between Morelia and Pumas in the second half of the evening's doubleheader – guaranteed the Revs a spot in the SuperLiga semifinals for the third straight year.
Perovic score what proved to be the game-winning goal in the 76th minute, capitalizing when second-half substitute Kheli Dube forced a turnover in the attacking third. Perovic pounced on the loose ball and drilled a left-footed shot past Fire goalkeeper Sean Johnson, putting it low inside the right post.
Desperate for a result to keep its hopes of a semifinal berth alive, the Fire pushed for an equalizer but never seriously threatened late in the match and the Revs held on for their first win in Chicago since 2006.
Group Stage vs. Monarcas Morelia (Mexican Primera División)
Tuesday, July 20 – Gillette Stadium | Watch highlights >>
Needing only a draw against Morelia to clinch the top spot in Group B, the Revolution went one better and claimed a third consecutive 1-0 win on the strength of Perovic's second goal of the tournament.
With a spot in the semifinals already secured, head coach Steve Nicol opted for a cautious approach in keeping Shalrie Joseph and Sainey Nyassi out of the lineup, as both would've been suspended for the semifinal had they received a yellow card. The Revs were also without regular starters Kevin Alston (hamstring strain) and Cory Gibbs (quad strain) because of minor injuries, so it was a partially makeshift lineup which took the field against Morelia.
It didn't matter in the end, however, as Perovic – who also scored the game-winning goal in the Revs' league victory over the Galaxy prior to SuperLiga – continued his torrid streak with the game's only goal in the 62nd minute. It was once again Dube's hard work which created the opportunity, as the industrious forward occupied three Morelia defenders as the ball bounced high in the box. A rushed clearing header fell directly into the path of Perovic in the left side of the box and the Serb stepped into a left-footed shot to lash home at the near post.
The victory set the Revolution up for a semifinal date with yet another Mexican side, Puebla FC. Meanwhile, Chicago's victory over Pumas in the other Group B finale also clinched a semifinal spot for Morelia, leaving open the possibility of a rematch in the final …
Semifinal vs. Puebla FC (Mexican Primera División)
Wednesday, Aug. 4 – Gillette Stadium | Watch highlights >>
After a disappointing loss to the Chicago Fire in a SuperLiga 2009 semifinal at Gillette Stadium, the Revs were out to redeem themselves and claim a spot in the tournament's title game for the second time in three years. They did just that with a pulsating victory over Puebla, advancing thanks to a 5-3 win in penalty kicks after 90 minutes of regulation finished tied at 1-1.
Kenny Mansally was the goal-scoring hero for the Revolution, notching the home side's only goal in normal time before converting the penalty kick which sent to the Revs to the SuperLiga 2010 title match. Mansally's heroic moment was made possible by Reis, who stopped Puebla forward Edgar Lugo's spot kick to provide the difference.
The score went from 0-0 to 1-1 in a matter of minutes early in the second half. Mansally gave the Revs a 56th-minute lead with a fantastic curling effort from 18 yards out, but Andres Olivera leveled the score just two minutes later by beating Reis to the near post with a low drive from the left side of the box.
The first seven shooters in penalty kicks converted their attempts, giving the Revs a 4-3 lead. Reis then handed the Revolution an advantage when he palmed away Lugo's attempt to slot the ball down the middle, and Mansally stepped up to blast his effort into the roof of the net and send the Revs to the final.
Final vs. Monarcas Morelia (Mexican Primera División)
Wednesday, Sept. 1 – Gillette Stadium
Morelia earned a 1-0 win over the Houston Dynamo in the other semifinal to set up an MLS-Mexico showdown in the SuperLiga 2010 final, not to mention a rematch of the hotly-contested group game in mid-July. This will be the third time in SuperLiga's four-year history that the final has pitted an MLS team against a Mexican team, and the Mexican sides have claimed the title on both previous occasions.
Will the Revs become the first MLS team to take down a Mexican team in the final? Will they become the first team to lift the SuperLiga trophy twice? We're only two days away from finding out …

Rude Words and Piracy: A High Wind in Jamaica and the Child Reader
Richard Hughes's first and most famous book, A High Wind in Jamaica, is one of the strangest novels I've ever read, which is really saying something. It's both delightful and disturbing in the way it presents -- in an unfailingly light tone -- children as amoral aliens. The novel is rich with irony, and it's not a satire so much as a relentless attack on sentimental notions of childhood. The possible interpretations of the novel are likely endless, but in many ways the book itself is about interpretation -- about the futility of trying to interpret a child's experiences and thoughts through adult eyes. (It's also worth noting that the novel was first published in the U.S. under the title The Innocent Voyage, which I'm rather more fond of than its better-known title. It was also once illustrated by Lynd Ward.)
I was surprised this morning to discover an essay by British teacher Victoria de Rijke in a 1995 issue of Children's Literature in Education, "Reading the Child Invention", in which de Rijke explores the very concept of "children's literature" by having children read A High Wind in Jamaica. The majority of the essay consists of transcripts of a conversations de Rijke had with an 11-year-old who read the novel, Ayeshea Zacharkiw. It's possible that Zacharkiw was extremely precocious, but de Rijke writes of many other children who read and appreciated the book, too. Toward the end of the discussion, she asks Zacharkiw if she thinks Hughes's novel is a book for children or for grown-ups, and Zacharkiw says she thinks it depends on reading ability, and a child's willingness to use a dictionary.
AZ: ...It's an old book as well, so it's got all these old expressions, but I think anyone could read it whether they're children or grown-ups. Yeah. It might take the children longer than older people, but cut at two year olds, cos you have to be sensible about ages.De Rijke draws some interesting conclusions from this exchange:
VdR: Right. I agree. And do you think there's anything in it that adults now wouldn't like children to read?
AZ: I don't know why it's been republished for adults. There are words in it I suppose, rude words (laughs) and piracy, but you can get horror books especially for children, but adults read them. Well, anyone can read any book. It's just what level you are at reading, whether you like that particular type of book, and if you don't like it, you can always put the book down.
VdR: Mmm, absolutely. You're free to do that, aren't you? It's not in control of you! (laughs)
AZ: (laughs) No, course not. Once you've bought it. It doesn't matter who you publish it for. Anyone can buy it and read it, or get it out of the library.
VdR: So what kind of particular type of book do you think this is?
AZ: Well, it's about life. It's about life on the schooner, and about children, as they're the man characters, and about the difference between grown-ups and children, who's in control.
Children's observations are often valued by grown-ups for their blunt honesty and wisdom, for cutting through the adult flannel and exposing simple truths, most often because adults are already uncomfortable about hypocrisies which they are concealing. Ayeshea reminded me that there are a number of basic requirements for effective reading: a level of basic literacy, information retrieval and developmental skills ("cut at two year olds, cos you have to be sensible about ages"). What a terrifically blunt reminder of the low expectations teachers and adults have of reading potential! ... The act of reading cannot be controlled by publishers' reading-age targeting, or price, given access to the library and a free choice of genre. In conversation, Ayeshea and I also emphasized, by the repetitive use we made of the word control the significance the book places on power relations, in terms of its subject. The term subject could be applied to both reader and plot.It's a fine reminder not to underestimate readers.
For another view of the book, Francine Prose's introduction (PDF) to the NYRB edition is a good overview of some of its strange wonders and terrors. And I'm entirely in agreement with Mr. Waggish: "The sheer oddness of this book really defies summary."
In place of summary or analysis, I'll leave you with a direct quote from the middle of A High Wind in Jamaica:
In short, babies have minds which work in terms and categories of their own which cannot be translated into the terms and categories of the human mind.
It is true they look human -- but not so human, to be quite fair, as many monkeys.
Subconsciously, too, everyone recognizes they are animals -- why else do people always laugh when a baby does some action resembling the human, as they would at a Praying Mantis? If the baby was only a less-developed man, there would be nothing funny in it, surely.
Possibly a case might be made out that children are not human either: but I should not accept it. Agreed that their minds are not just more ignorant and stupider than ours, but differ in kind of thinking (are mad in fact): but one can, by an effort of will and imagination, think like a child at least in a partial degree -- and even if one's success is infinitesimal it invalidates the case: while one can no more think like a baby, in the smallest respect, than one can think like a bee.
How then can one begin to describe the inside of Laura, where the child-mind lived in the midst of the familiar relics of the baby-mind, like a Fascist in Rome?

Surprisingly the LDS church has recently acknowledged some disturbing facts of Joseph Smith's polygamy on LDS.org. The recent posting of two essays entitled "Plural Marriage in Kirkland and Nauvoo" and "Manifesto and the End of Plural Marriage" told of some of the outlandish practices of Joseph Smith. They admit that Emma did not often know of the marriages. Also they point out that Joseph married other men's wives (eleven altogether) and marrying girls as young as 14 years old.
What is not a surprise is that the church is taking the stance of trying to explain why Joseph did these things to justify his actions. They talk about his first plural wife being "Fanny Alger" in 1830 but they do not talk about how it was discovered. Literally, Emma found Joseph in the barn with Fanny doing the sexual mambo. It was so disturbing to Oliver Cowdery that it was one of the reasons why he left the Mormon Church for a time. Cowdery called Joseph's first plural marriage a "…a dirty, filthy, nasty affair." One can only imagine how Emma felt discovering her husband with a 17 year old in the barn.
Oddly enough, although the church admits that Joseph took other men's wives as his own they don't ask the very difficult questions. Like- "If marriage is necessary for one's salvation, why would Joseph rob these men of their opportunity to reach the highest level in the Celestial Kingdom?" or "Why do we do sealings for dead, if these men were never going to have the opportunity to be sealed to their own wives?" Perhaps a more difficult question might be asked if we looked at the revelation from which Joseph was commanded to practice polygamy. "…if any man espouse a virgin, and desire to espouse another, and the first give her consent, and if he espouse the second, and they are virgins, and have vowed to no other man, then he is justified; he cannot commit adultery for they are given unto him; for he cannot commit adultery with that that belongeth unto him and to no one else" D&C 132:61. Apparently Joseph was committing two wrongs, first he was not telling Emma and then he was taking wives which did not belong to him. The apparent hard question is "Was Joseph committing adultery because he was taking other men's wives?" The answer is a resounding yes. Another difficult question "Was Joseph told through revelations to take these other men's wives?" The answer is also yes. "If Joseph could be deceived so easily into committing these terrible sins, how do we know that any other revelation Joseph received was valid?"
This was the very reason for why the Nauvoo Expositor was written just before Joseph Smith's death. William Law the second counselor in the first presidency had just made a startling discovery. Joseph was taking other men's wives into polygamous marriages with himself. William found out the hard way. While Mr. Law was away, Joseph Smith approached Jane Law and asked her on two occasions to become his wife. When William returned Jane told her husband everything. Crushed and surprised by the news, William sought to make things right in private with Joseph. He asked Joseph to repent and discovered that Joseph had already entered into many different marriages. After many attempts to make things right through Hyrum as a mediator, Joseph refused to repent. Hence, William Law with the assistance of others, printed the Nauvoo Expositor in an attempt to expose Joseph's sin and hopefully through the pressure of the church membership cause Joseph to repent. Unfortunately, Joseph rebelled and destroyed the printing press and was arrested and put into Carthage Jail. The resulting firestorm at the discovery of Joseph's infidelity and adultery caused Joseph's enemies to storm the jail and put him to death. If only Joseph would have lived ten more years, this evil would have ended his attempt to form a religion. But sadly, Joseph's death only fueled the fire of Mormonism.
If you are a Latter-day Saint and are just now discovering these terrible facts about Joseph, please do the right thing and call a spade a spade. Come to know the real truth about Jesus and his word. The Bible was not corrupted as Joseph taught you, Joseph was deceived. Remember Jesus taught "Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away" Matthew 24:35. Come and learn of Jesus and his way from the truth in the Bible. Don't seek for a true church; seek to have a real relationship with Jesus. People may disappoint you, but Jesus will never disappoint you.

Thats great, especially since i stopped using the iphone since the 3g model. Instead of iphone updates can we have a version for android?? Seems pretty standard in 2013
April 04 2013, 10:24AM
I would love to be able to create discount codes on the go! Is that on the horizon?
April 04 2013, 11:08AM
have downloaded the IPAD version, wish the format were better. But what about those true blue Canadians who have a Blackberry 10! or any other BB!
April 04 2013, 11:11AM
Love Shopify but I don't understand why the metrics aren't relevant to running a real business – Year to date / Month to date… no one really tracks "last 30 days" in financial reporting. Can we make the statistics relevant to running a company? You used to have the ability to view the sales for a select number of days…that was one of your best features but you got rid of it for some reason?
April 04 2013, 11:12AM
SteveH: We want to get an Android app out there. Right now, we have some other projects that we're excited to launch before then. Android in 2013 is as important to you as it is to us.
Tyler: Thanks for the feedback. It would be great to have all features from the web in the app but we're really trying to first focus on the core features that the majority of our storeowners need on the go.
April 04 2013, 11:14AM
Just looking at it now. The new dashboard is very nice, and useful. Great work!
One feature that would be helpful would be if the page for an individual order had the referring website or keyword. For my marketing, I always want to know how customers found my products.
April 04 2013, 12:19PM
Thanks for the great new features! It really makes managing a business so much easier and efficient. Keep up the good work!
April 04 2013, 12:37PM
Looking forward to the Android Shopify app! Thanks!

That's good news except that I use Windows Phone 8 on the Lumia 920.
April 08 2013, 02:34AM

Utah-based startup Bungee Labs is in the news today having taken the wraps off Bungee Connect, their web-based application development and hosting platform. Bungee aims to provide an end-to-end environment for developing applications in the cloud: from editing code through to debugging, deployment and runtime. Nothing installed locally, everything happens on their infrastructure. They've worked to make the programming experience familiar to developers as you can see in the screenshot below showing their browser-based code environment:
The service will be priced on a utility model where billing is based on the amount of time an application is used. Like Amazon's utility services there are no upfront costs or fixed fees. Target customers are developers in small to medium sized companies or departmental groups in larger organizations. Note this platform, with its C-like language BungeeLogic, is designed for developers, in contrast to tools like Microsoft Popfly or IBM's QEDWiki, both of which are targeted outside of traditional IT.
This launch is notable because there's clearly a race on in this new market that's now being called "Platform as a Service". Players include companies like Salesforce.com and Etelos, and it's widely expected before long a variety of major vendors including Microsoft, Google, Amazon and others will be increasing their offerings in this area. Whether that means discrete pieces like development tools, or deployment and runtime infrastructure, or metering and billing, we expect to see a real battle for developer's hearts and minds on this front. For more, see coverage from ZDNet's Dan Farber on this announcement.
In addition to the public beta, Bungee is also releasing a fairly sophisticated reference application shown below called "WideLens". This mashup is a calendar application that reads and writes in realtime to sources including Microsoft Exchange, Google Calendar, Salesforce.com, Facebook, MySQL and iCalendar feeds. Running an application like this would cost somewhere between $2 to $5 per user per month.
Bungee Labs is a ProgrammableWeb sponsor.

PostMedia News
OTTAWA — Taking any public health measures to ban or control bisphenol A — as Canada recently did — is premature since evidence of its alleged health risks is not strong enough, the World Health Organization said Tuesday.
An international panel of 30 experts including Canadians reviewed the latest studies on the impact of the chemical, also known as BPA, which is frequently used in food containers and packages. The experts found that BPA, which has been linked to serious health problems, is mostly eliminated through urine and doesn't accumulate in the body.
Circulating levels of BPA in the human body were found to be very low, "indicating that BPA is not accumulated in the body and is rapidly eliminated through urine," WHO said in a statement.
Recent experiments have made a connection between low levels of BPA in the body and such adverse health effects as prostate and breast cancer.
"It is difficult to interpret the relevance of these studies in the light of current knowledge of this compound," the statement read. "Until these associations can be confirmed, initiation of public health measures would be premature."
Canada added BPA to the national list of toxic substances in October, about two years after becoming the first country in the world to ban BPA in baby bottles. The ban came after concluding that the estrogen-mimicking substance could eventually lead to health problems.
The industrial chemical is used primarily in producing polycarbonate plastic and epoxy resins for food containers, water bottles and protective linings for canned food and beverages.
Environmental Defence, a non-profit environmental organization, had spent five years leading the lobby campaign for the toxic designation. And they say Canada should continue on its path to rid all products of BPA, despite the report from WHO.
"We already knew that BPA passes through the body," the organization's executive director Rick Smith said. "But the fact that studies still show it present in nine out of 10 people means that it is getting in just as fast, and doing damage while it is there. We therefore must remove BPA from ubiquitous items such as tin can linings so that we are not marinating in the stuff."
The panel of experts also confirmed a widely held belief that food is "by far" the main source of BPA. The chemical leaches into food from its plastic or metal packaging, the statement said.
Other less important sources of BPA are house dust, soil or toys, dental treatments and thermal papers, such as cash register receipts, the report said.
Several countries have followed Canada's lead since Ottawa announced the ban on baby bottles containing BPA; bills addressing the chemical having been introduced in U.S. Congress, Belgium and the United Kingdom, Smith said.
The meeting of international experts was organized by WHO jointly with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, with the support of the European Food Safety Authority, Health Canada, the U.S. National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
Canada's curbs on BPA premature, says WHO panel

ATLANTA — With two outs in the bottom of the eighth inning of Friday's Wild Card Game between the St. Louis Cardinals and Atlanta Braves, chaos enveloped Turner Field.
Braves fans, incensed at the umpires' decision to rule Andrelton Simmons' pop-up an infield fly (and, thus, an out), threw just about everything they could get their hands on onto the field to show their displeasure. The Cardinals gathered in shallow center field to avoid the debris, and the Braves gathered near second base before both teams headed into the dugout while the grounds crew cleaned up the debris.
Here's the situation: The Braves trailed by 6-3—that turned out to be the final score—with two on and one out. Simmons hit a two-strike pitch from Mitchell Boggs into shallow left field. It should have been a relatively easy catch for left fielder Matt Holliday, but he gave way to shortstop Pete Kozma, who appeared to be calling for the ball. But Kozma suddenly veered off, and the ball fell to the turf.
The crowd exploded, thinking the Braves had the bases loaded in a win-or-go-home contest. But Sam Holbrook, positioned along the left-field line, had raised his hand to indicate that the infield fly rule was in effect.
— Learn more: Recap | Box score | Play-by-play
"It's all judged on what the fielder does," Holbrook said. "Once that fielder (Kozma) establishes himself that he's got ordinary effort on the ball, that's when the call is made. It wouldn't matter whether I was at third base or on the line out there. It's all based on what the fielder does, and that's what I went on. That's what I read."
The call is left to the umpire's discretion. What made it unusual was how far out into the outfield Kozma wound up, a fact that wasn't missed by the Braves.
"I haven't seen one called where the guy wasn't camped," Braves third baseman Chipper Jones said. "You know, normally when you're that far out, nobody's camped. But I saw the rule where it doesn't necessarily have to be an infielder, it could be an outfielder who comes in and ultimately makes the play. But you really don't see any clear indication that one of the two was camped."
— More from SN: Wild Card Games in photos | Chipper Jones through the years
The 52,631 fans in attendance didn't realize the call had been made until Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez charged out of the dugout and argued vehemently with the umpires. And when Simmons was told to head from his spot at first base to the dugout, the fans erupted.
That's when debris began raining down on the field. The game was delayed 19 minutes while the grounds crew cleaned up the bottles, cans and other assorted pieces of debris that lined the field.
"I think we have very passionate fans here in Atlanta, and I think I'm a little disappointed with the reaction of throwing bottles and beer cans and you name it," Gonzalez said. "For me, that's uncalled for. I think we, as fans, and I understand. I understand the disappointment. But we can't do that. As Atlanta Braves and people from Georgia, it doesn't look good, and I'm a little disappointed in our fans from that point. You get people injured out there, then it's scary. It really is when you're standing out there, whether you're a St. Louis Cardinal, an Atlanta Brave or an umpire, and you have these things coming at you, it's a scary moment."
The club also issued a formal apology.
"The atlanta braves have a strong and loyal fan base and a small group of those fans acted in a manner that was uncharacteristic and unacceptable. The actions of those fans are not representative of the Atlanta Braves or Major League Baseball. We apologize to the St. Louis Cardinals and to Major League Baseball," team president John Schuerholz said.
The Braves officially protested the game.
Typically, a team has a 24-hour window to file an official protest. But with the unique, cramped schedule, there was no time for that. By the end of the game, Joe Torre, the executive vice president of baseball operations for Major League Baseball, had officially denied the Braves' appeal.
"It's unusual circumstances, as far as the one-game playoff," Torre said. "… I spoke to (Fredi Gonzalez and general manager Frank Wren) after the game and asked them what the protest was about, and I ruled, basically, to disallow the protest based on the fact that it was an umpire's judgment call."
Shortly after that, the Braves dropped their protest.
St. Louis will face the Washington Nationals in the first game of a best-of-five NL Division Series on Sunday in St. Louis.

Got acne scars? LaserAway Carlsbad can help. We've got the most innovative medical spa technology available to erase acne scars for good.
An estimated 10 million Americans develop acne scars each year. Prevention needs to start early. Because 95% of acne patients will develop scarring to some degree, the earlier the treatment appropriate for the severity of the outbreak is initiated, the better the odds are that scar formation will be mild. Delaying acne therapy by three or more years is likely to increase your risk of more significant acne scarring.
We've got a number of treatment options to choose from to banish acne scars.
Juvéderm is a smooth gel filler that fills in pitted or depressed acne scars. Juvéderm is so powerful that its results last up to a year—and after only a single treatment. Because Juvéderm's dermal gel is smooth rather than granular, a single injection makes skin looks smooth, natural and youthful. The unique formulation of Juvéderm's gel promotes hydration of the skin as well as restores volume to the skin and its underlying structures.
Intense Pulsed Light photo facials are incredibly effective on shallow acne scars. IPL photo facials work by using a broad-spectrum light source that penetrates multiple layers of skin. This type of photo facial primarily targets the lower layers of skin (dermis) while leaving the top layers of skin (epidermis) unaffected. The heat generated from the light promotes healing of the skin within, treating a number of different dermatological issues, such as acne scarring.
Botox too can erase ugly acne scars. Because wide scars are the result of local muscles pulling the wound apart during the healing phase, Botox temporarily weakens the surrounding muscles, lessening the pull on the wound during the acute healing phase.
Clear + Brilliant is another fantastic treatment for acne scars. Its non-invasive laser technology gently resurfaces the top layer of the dermis by creating millions of microscopic treatment zones in the skin. This not only stimulates collagen production, but also encourage skin to create healthier tissue. The result? Acne scars and discoloration fade away!

Endangered Species Permits
Safe Harbor Agreements
Safe Harbor Agreements are voluntary agreements between the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and cooperating non-Federal landowners. They are designed to benefit federally endangered and threatened species by giving landowners assurances that at no future time would the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service impose restrictions on their land as a result of conservation actions on their part. In other words, these agreements essentially relieve landowners of liability under the Endangered Species Act if conservation practices on their land attract and/or perpetuate federally listed species. To date, nearly three million acres of land have been enrolled in Safe Harbor Agreements, benefiting a variety of listed species.

Some people were upset about smoking begin restricted... Non-smokers were pretty pleased as were most smokers who want to quit (a large proportion), even full-time smokers I've spoken to are happy that it has reduced the amount the smoke and generally improved public spaces.
The aim was to improve the health of the nation and to allow non-smokers not to have to breathe second hand smoke.
Given the high obesity rate in the US (and many other countries), is it not time for the government to make fast food the next target?
*Warning labels on Fast food (Crappy foods cause heart disease etc) similar to cigarette packets could be a start.
*Changes to food supplied in school canteens,
*education of parents to help them stop child obesity (and there own obesity!),
*compulsory nutrition and cooking classes in schools including demonstrations on what happens to the body of the obese.
*Stricter Guidelines and then Large fines for fast food companies (and food manufacturers) that do not meet a minimum nutritional standard in their food.
People KNOW that smoking is unhealthy, some will still do it. It seems completely understated in comparison just how unhealthy fast food is, people should still have the choice to eat it, but more in your face education to get through to people.
Views: 854
If being unhealthy and dependent on something gives you a greater sense of well being then I suppose you should keep smoking, if you kicked the habit entirely (ie. no longer had an aching need to smoke, and when you smoke you feel good because you feed the craving) then you might feel that the sense of well being is actually just a relief from the craving, who knows everyone is different. My suggestion is that the majority of people (Which includes non-smokers, people trying to quit, people who want to smoke less) see the positive outcomes of the ban.
The quote you have above is an illustration of a health related policy implemented by the government that was beneficial to the majority, the existence of that statement in my argument is not really essential as problems with obesity speak for themselves, but i believe it is relevant information that demonstrates similar policies could work in the future.
"refused service at an icecream shop because the LAW says I'm too fat"
I've already explicitly stated that that is not my angle here at all. Higher taxes on junk food, to subsidize and encourage people to buy healthier foods. yes, prohibition failed, why would i be suggesting that? but tax on alcohol exists in almost every country.

I'm so sorry you were all sick at once like that...or maybe so close, if it were all at once it would have been over sooner! My kids would all come down with something days apart and with four of them, it lasted 3 weeks. They did that with the chicken pox and I was stuck at home for six straight weeks with them. The day that they learned how to make it to the bathroom in time was a big one for me!
Take care and I will keep my fingers crossed you guys get to that TO DO List soon!

Two officials out at troubled state lab amid unfolding drug sample scandal
Errant chemist's overseers faulted
The top official at the state laboratory that mishandled drug samples has resigned, and another lab executive has been fired, state law enforcement and health authorities announced Thursday, the latest development in an unfolding scandal.
The lab officials failed to detect obvious signs of problems with a chemist's work involving drug samples from criminal cases, state executives said at a Beacon Hill press conference. They compounded that error by making the "poor decision'' to wait six months to alert the state's public health commissioner once problems were identified, said Dr. JudyAnn Bigby, secretary of health and human services in the Patrick administration.
"There is simply no good answer,'' Bigby said. "The chemist violated the public trust in choosing to do what she did. She's responsible for her actions, but the management at the lab also failed.''
The chemist, who worked at the Jamaica Plain lab from 2003 until she quit in March, handled 60,000 samples, potentially imperiling 34,000 criminal cases. Officials have not publicly named the chemist, but authorities familiar with the investigation identified her as Annie Dookhan,
Problems with the chemist were discovered in June 2011, according to state officials, but lab directors did not bring those issues to the attention of Public Health Commissioner John Auerbach until December. Auerbach's office then launched an investigation.
Lab director Dr. Linda L. Han tendered her resignation Wednesday, while director of analytical chemistry Julie Nassif was fired. Disciplinary proceedings have begun against the chemist's direct supervisor, whose identity was not disclosed by officials Thursday. Han and Nassif could not be reached for comment.
The news conference — which included Bigby, state Public Safety Secretary Mary Elizabeth Heffernan, and State Police Colonel Timothy Alben — left many questions unanswered because, the officials said, the state attorney general is still conducting a criminal investigation.
Exactly what Dookhan may have done wrong — and
legal consequences for the 34,000 cases tied to drug samples she tested — remains unclear. Officials have provided details about only one alleged episode involving drug mishandling by Dookhan, in June 2011.
Bigby said investigators believe that incident was not just "simple sloppiness,'' but officials declined to elaborate.
"She has admitted to some malfeasance, and that will be an ongoing investigation, part of the attorney general's investigation,'' said Heffernan, the public safety secretary.
But the mystery around the drug mishandling deepened with the disclosure Thursday that Dookhan's workload was substantially heavier than her peers'. In 2004, for example, Dookhan processed 9,239 samples while her peers on average tested 2,938 samples.
Bigby said that chemists were not paid based on output, which might have explained a motive for the huge imbalance, but she offered no explanation or a motive for the discrepancy in workload.
"These indicators should have prompted closer attention to her work,'' Bigby said. "These are red flags that should have been caught earlier.''
The Public Health Department operated the lab for decades until it was taken over by State Police in July. The Patrick administration proposed in January, just as it began sharing news of the problems with district attorneys in the state, that the lab's oversight be transferred to the State Police, which operates its own drug analysis lab in Sudbury.
Bigby said the transfer was made because the State Police have the "oversight, equipment, and procedures'' that were "more consistent with what we know we have to do in the 21st century.''
As State Police were preparing to assume jurisdiction of the lab in July, the crime lab director for the State Police visited with Jamaica Plain lab employees. During that visit, two chemists pulled the State Police official aside to express concerns about Dookhan.
"They were concerned that she did not always follow the established protocols, and they did not want to have to testify to the validity of her work,'' said Alben, the State Police colonel.
Alben said State Police launched a criminal investigation along with the attorney general's office. Investigators interviewed current and former chemists at the lab and discovered that Dookhan "routinely violated'' protocols in drug testing while handling evidence in that laboratory.
In court Wednesday, a prosecutor said Dookhan mixed drugs from unrelated criminal cases to assure positive results and manipulated evidence to increase its weight, thus potentially elevating the penalties that suspects faced.
Officials have set up a "boiler room'' of prosecutors, defense attorneys, court officials, and others to review the thousands of cases that might be affected.
"It's going to be labor- intensive,'' Heffernan said. "It's going to require a lot of resources, of literally going through folder by folder.''
Heffernan said investigators will have to match each sample with a defendant and then go back to find the attorney who represented each defendant. The process is complicated by the fact that the Jamaica Plain lab did not use the same procedures in cataloging its records that drug labs operated by State Police use.
It would be "hard to estimate'' how long the process might take or how much it might cost, Heffernan said. She indicated officials may ask state lawmakers for financial help.

Quantum observables
are commonly described by self-adjoint operators on a Hilbert space H. I will
show that one can equivalently describe observables by real-valued functions on
the set P(H) of projections, which we call q-observable functions. If one regards
a quantum observable as a random variable, the corresponding q-observable
function can be understood as a quantum quantile function, generalising the
classical notion. I will briefly sketch how q-observable functions relate to
the topos approach to quantum theory and the process called daseinisation. The
topos approach provides a generalised state space for quantum systems that
serves as a joint sample space for all quantum observables. This is joint work
with Barry Dewitt.

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
Israeli leaders are anticipating US military action against neighboring Syria after Western leaders appeared to accept evidence that the regime of dictator Bashar Assad had used chemical weapons against its foes, including civilian populations.
In fact, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was openly urging Washington to make good on its threat to intervene should Assad employ non-conventional weapons against his own people.
In statements to the press prior to Sunday's weekly cabinet meeting, Netanyahu and President Shimon Peres even hinted that Israel itself could strike Syria if the situation did not stabilize soon.
Peres noted that the price of allowing Syria to continue holding chemical weapons after it has proved it's willingness to use them against even internal enemies was far higher than the cost of taking forceful preemptive action.
While most Israelis no doubt agreed with Peres, the prospect of open warfare with Syria caused some trepidation at home, as only 60 percent of Israelis currently possess up-to-date gas mask kits.
Meanwhile, Iran is warning America against any involvement in Syria. "Trespassing over the red line in Syria will have severe consequences for the White House," the head of Iran's Revolutionary Guard told Iranian media.
Iran is determined to keep its ally Assad in power, and views the Sunni-dominated rebel forces as a threat to its own plans of regional hegemony.
For Israel, there is no good outcome to the Syrian civil war. If Assad wins, Iran's influence in the area will continue. If the rebels win, Syria will likely descend into chaos and become a haven for all manner of radical terrorist organizations, much like what happened to the Gaza Strip and Southern Lebanon.

Sales of existing homes in Canada rose 1.8 per cent in December from the previous month, and by 4.6 per cent from a year earlier, the Canadian Real Estate Association said Monday.
Sales totalled 39,740 unit last month, compared to 39.033 in December and 23,669 units a year earlier, the industry group said.
For all of 2011, sales were up by a seasonally adjusted 2.2 per cent to 456,749 units.
Meanwhile, the number of newly listed homes rose three per cent in December from a month earlier, CREA added.
"The momentum in sales activity provides clear evidence that low interest rates continue to draw homebuyers to the housing market," said CREA president Gary Morse.
"While buyers have become increasingly cautious, the hand off for sales activity going into the new year suggests that Canada's housing market will continue to benefit from low interest rates in 2012, and continue making a significant contribution to Canadian economic activity."
The average sale price was $358,480 on a seasonally adjusted basis in December, down 0.9 per cent from November but up 0.9 per cent on an unadjusted basis from in December 2010.
"Debt-heavy households are expected to curb their appetite for mortgages, pointing to some further moderation in housing in 2012," said Douglas Porter, deputy chief economist at BMO Capital Markets. "We look for both sales and prices to be roughly flat this year. That could be just what the policy doctor ordered, allowing incomes to catch up to higher prices.
Still, real estate brokerage firm Royal LePage said last week that with record low long-term mortgage rates in place, Canada's housing market will continue to be strong this year.
It forecast prices across to country to rise 2.8 per cent by the end of 2012, after stronger gains last year.
CREA chief economist Gregory Klump said Monday "momentum for national sales activity and average price remains positive but is slowing, which suggests that the continuation of low interest rates is not causing the Canadian housing market to overheat."
"High end home sales seem unlikely to spike again in the first quarter like they did at the beginning of 2011, so national average price momentum may wane further over the next few months. With interest rates widely expected to remain low throughout 2012, home ownership will remain affordable, and continue to support home sales activity."Read more: http://www.canada.com/business/Home+sales+cent+December/6003055/story.html#ixzz1jeTzOu4c

Konak Pier once functioned as a landing site for ships, it has been stripped of much, but luckily not all, of its interior, and now houses lots of up-market shops. You can find a good (English too) book-shop here, and refined clothes, shoes, restaurants, a cinema and coffee shops. Security checks at the entrances add to a sense of being among the happy few. Which is not always a pleasure to me.

Alzheimer disease is the most common form of dementia. It affects your memory, thinking, and behavior. It often progresses to the point where it affects daily activities and functions.
Alzheimer disease most commonly affects older adults, but it can also affect people in their 30s or 40s. When Alzheimer disease occurs in someone under age 65, it is known as early-onset (or younger-onset) Alzheimer disease.
A very small number of people with Alzheimer disease have the early-onset form. Many of them are in their 40s and 50s when the disease takes hold.
Most types of early-onset Alzheimer disease are the same, but there are a few small distinctions:
Experts don't know what triggers the start of Alzheimer disease. They suspect that 2 proteins damage and kill nerve cells. Fragments of one protein, beta-amyloid, build up and are called plaques. Twisted fibers of another protein, tau, are called tangles. Almost everyone develops plaques and tangles as they age. But those with Alzheimer disease develop many, many more. At first, these plaques and tangles damage the memory areas of the brain. Over time, they affect more areas of the brain. Experts don't know why some people develop so many plaques and tangles, or how they spread and damage the brain.
Family history of the disease is the only known risk factor at this time.
For most people with early-onset Alzheimer disease, the symptoms closely mirror those of other forms of Alzheimer disease.
Early symptoms:
Later symptoms:
The current diagnosis of early-onset Alzheimer disease relies on detecting the signs of mental decline noted above. Your healthcare provider can then diagnose Alzheimer disease with a few tests.
First, your healthcare provider asks about your health history, and also does cognitive tests of memory, problem solving, and other mental skills. Depending on the results of the office-based cognitive testing, your provider may also request that you have more detailed testing done with a neuropsychologist. Your provider might also test your blood, urine, and spinal fluid. You may also need certain imaging test such as CT and MRI scans of your brain. These give your provider a closer look at brain tissue to show how much damage there is.
In the future, researchers hope that studies on biomarkers will allow experts to diagnose the disease more quickly. Biomarkers are proteins in the body, or other types of markers, that reliably indicate the progress of a disease.
Early-onset Alzheimer disease currently has no cure. But healthcare providers have been successful in helping people maintain their mental function, control behavior, and slow the progress of the disease.
Other treatments that may play a role in slowing the progress of early-onset Alzheimer disease include physical activity, cardiovascular and diabetes treatments, antioxidants, and cognitive training. A number of studies are ongoing in this area, and researchers are learning new things about Alzheimer disease every day.
Experts don't know how to prevent Alzheimer disease. Recently, some evidence showed that detecting the disease early can lead to better treatment options. It's best to look for any of the early warning signs mentioned above and see your healthcare provider immediately if you notice any.
Early-onset Alzheimer disease can be a difficult disease to cope with. It helps to have a positive outlook and to stay as active and mentally engaged as possible.
It's also important to realize that you are not alone. Rely on your friends and family as much as possible. Don't be afraid to seek out a support group, if you feel that it might be helpful.
When the disease is still in its early stages, it's critical to think about the future. This can include financial planning, working with employers on current and potential job responsibilities, clarifying health insurance coverage, and getting all your important documents in order should your health take a turn for the worse.
Although Alzheimer disease has no cure, you can make the best of a bad situation by keeping your mind and your body as healthy as possible. This can include eating a healthy diet, getting regular exercise, cutting down on alcohol, and using relaxation techniques to reduce stress.
As with any disease, it is important to keep an eye on your condition. Call your healthcare provider if you notice any sudden changes in yourself, or in the person you care for, that make additional help necessary. You can discuss the next steps with your provider.
Tips to help you get the most from a visit to your healthcare provider:

|Receipts & Pledges to-date: $71,504
|Woo hoo!! And now less than $16.5k to go!! And $7.7 to the YELLOW!! Let's get 'er done. Thank you all very much!!

Please keep those donations coming in, folks. We need your continuing support to keep FR going strong.
As you know, FR is funded solely by the donations provided by the people who love and use it.
We do not depend on advertisers because we don't want them trying to control what we may or may not say.
We do not depend on corporate sponsors because we don't want them trying to control what we may or may not say.
We do not depend on well-heeled wealthy donors because we don't want them trying to control what we may or may not say.
We do not have partnerships or agreements with other organizations or political parties because we don't want them trying to control what we may or may not say.
We are not an IRS 501c non-profit and we are not subsidized by the taxpayer because we do not want government or the IRS trying to control what we may or may not say.
We sell no merchandise or memberships because we are not a for profit commercial enterprise and we prefer to keep it that way. If we go commercial it will change the entire mission and nature of FR. I'm not interested in becoming wealthy and I do not want FR's goal to be to maximize profits. We raise only enough to cover our expected operating costs for the current quarter.
It's just us freedom loving citizens exercising our first amendment rights, free of any political party, government, corporate or outside influences.
But we do maintain our own conservative standards however. We believe this nation was founded on Judeo-Christian principles and our liberty is granted by God our Creator and we the people are the sovereigns over government. We the people through our sovereign states established the constitution and the central government and granted it certain constitutionally enumerated and limited powers, reserving all others to our states and our people to decide. Government derives its just powers at the consent of the governed.
Our government is now at war against the founding principles, against the constitution, against the states, against we the people, against liberty. against life, against God's nature and natural order, and against God Himself.
Our government's goal, especially since the ascension of Barack Obama and his lawless Marxist/fascist regime is to "fundamentally transform America."
Fundamentally transform it by ripping out God, constitution, family, religion and liberty by the roots and replacing it with total dependence on government, ie, transforming America from a free Republic to a communist state!
Our mission is to defend God, family, country, constitution and liberty and to restore our constitutional Republic!
So please keep those donations coming in, folks. With Obama's lawless Marxist/fascist regime pulling out all stops on the road to fundamentally transforming America from a free Republic to a communist state, we need FR now more than ever to keep it free!
Make it a monthly if you can. We have some very generous FReeper sponsors who are kicking in an extra ten bucks for each new monthly that signs up. So sign up for a monthly today and get a little extra bang for your buck!!
FReeper I_be_tc donates $100 each quarter and challenges 300 others to do the same. If we could get 300 FReepers to send in a $100 or more each, it would help bring the FReepathon to a successful conclusion!! We've received 36 donations of $100 or more so far this quarter!! If you send in $100 or more per quarter, please send me a note and I'll add your screen name to the 300 Club roster!!
Please click the link above to donate by secure server or by mail to:
Free Republic - PO Box 9771 - Fresno, CA 93794
Thank you all very much!!
God bless.
Thanks, Jim, for all you do!
"The bravest are surely those who have the clearest vision
of what is before them, glory and danger alike,
and yet notwithstanding, go out to meet it."
Ah, the good old days
please help support the most conservative online site
be a part of the fight to bring back those good old days

Bloomington, Indiana usually brings to mind college football, basketball, and bicycle racing, to name a few. However, it also is home to a couple of rail trails that deserve mention: the B Line and the Clear Creek Trails. The first of these, the B Line, was at one time part of the Monon Railroad; its conversion into a rail trail has taken much work and dedication, and it still contains some incomplete parts. The Clear Creek Trail branches off from the B Line, and is a continuous 2 1/2 mile paved, multi-use surface.
To better appreciate how these rail trails wound up where they are today, go back to the first settlement of Bloomington, in the early 1800s; there were good water sources and the site was close to where much of the state's population resided at that time. President James Monroe proposed the building of a seminary here, which later became I. U. In the 1850s, the Monon Railroad arrived, one of only a few north-south carriers. The Monon's main line stretched from Chicago to Louisville, including Bloomington. A second Monon line served the Michigan City to Indianapolis route, and now hosts the well-known Monon Rail Trail in Indianapolis.
Today, as a trail, the open portion of the B Line starts in downtown Bloomington, and if you go on a Saturday in summer, you can experience the farmers' market and see artisans' works. Restaurants and museums lie within a short walk from the trail, and the courthouse, built with Indiana limestone, is also visible from here. Plaques and signs help you to appreciate early Bloomington history and structures. There are whimsical artworks along the way, as well as variable pavement styles adding to the overall landscape design. Total trail length so far is just under three miles, part paved, part unpaved. Currently, there is a gap in between the finished sections, but don't let that deter you. Those completed portions are worth the effort.
The Clear Creek Trail, south of Bloomington's center, splits off from the B Line Trail and travels northwest for 2.5 miles, weaving through mostly rural farmscapes and woods. Relics of the quarry it once served are sometimes visible along the path. A restored 1887 railroad bridge spans Clear Creek; the bridge was originally built across Big Pine Creek in Warren County, Indiana. Both of these trails cross major streets along their routes, but the intersections are well marked ahead and at the crossings themselves.
As one might expect, Bloomington and the surrounding region offer a number of opportunities and places of interest to explore. The Indiana University campus is home to various arts, museums, and sports venues, including a fine arts gallery, Glenn Black Archaeology Lab and Museum, and Kirkwood Observatory. In addition, the Indiana Geological Survey's offices are here with its vast informative research on everything from possible petroleum-containing strata to where "Indiana" was 400 million years ago.
Bloomington has its share of festivals, too, including a Taste of Bloomington, the Pride Film Festival, Arts Fair on the Square, Chocolate Festival, Indiana Heritage Quilt Show, Theta Antique Show—and these are just some of them!
The town of Nashville lies east of Bloomington on SR 46, and close by is the Steele State Historic Site. T. C. Steele was an Indiana landscape painter who, with Ottis Adams and others, helped establish the Nashville area as an artists' haven. In addition, Brown County State Park, McCormick's Creek State Park, the 13,000-acre Charles Deam Wilderness, and Lake Monroe are a short distance away. Whether your passion is fall colors, Bill Monroe Bluegrass music, hiking, equestrian trails, covered bridges, boating, fishing, exploring an ancient earthquake fault (in the Deam Wilderness), or just a quiet rail trail, it can all be found in this area.

2x0ng is a procedural puzzle-combat roguelike game rendered in an 8-bit retro style. Pronounce it "TOO-zong". You control a little pixel-person running through a procedurally-generated maze; with your bouncing, color-changing Squareball, you can match colors to unlock new areas, and destroy an onslaught of enemies as you make your way to the exit. The rest of the rules are for you to discover in-game.
This game is super awesome :D
