As if Nokia, Motorola, et. al., didn't already have reason to shit themselves. Today's news from The Street will have CEOs at every major handset maker pouring glasses of Pepto-Bismol and reading motivational posters. Senior Writer Scott Moritz reports that Apple will boost iPhone production for the fourth quarter to 2.7 Million units, nearly double original projections. Apparently Apple anticipates some kind of spike in demand in Q4.
Hey, you don't suppose the recent price drop had something to do with this, do you? Nah, purely coincidental.

Lincoln Park's newest resident is one a lot of neighbors may have already met. The three-story tall, half-naked woman residing on the Vitamin Water XXX ad at Sheffield/Wrightwood/Lincoln intersection, just blocks away from DePaul's campus, is hard to miss. And some students are not rolling out the welcome mat.
Shortly after the advertisement went up, DePaul Junior Emily Edwards started an online petition asking Glaceau, the company that manufactures Vitamin Water, to remove it. The petition letter states, "The message seems to be more concerned with selling sexuality than encouraging a healthy lifestyle."
The petition hopes to encourage a different way of thinking when it comes to advertising. An e-mail was sent to Glaceau regarding this issue and although a response was received, it did not mention any possibility of removing the advertisement.
A recent article from the New York Post proves that Edwards is not alone. Rev. Freddy Wyatt, a pastor in Manhattan, was "angered and brokenhearted" by a four-story advertisement that he sent tweets to Vitamin Water until it was removed.
Edwards said she understands that sex sells, and most of the feedback about the petition from locals has been positive. Others have made comments to her that the advertisement is ridiculous and frustrating.
"Women have constantly been battling issues with body image and self-esteem," Edwards mentioned. This ad doesn't help. As of May 15, the petition is 12 signatures away from reaching it's goal of 100 signatures.
Besides the fact that "college campuses are rampant with sexual violence, a disease rooted in the objectification of people's bodies" (as stated in the letter), Jonquil Park is located right at the intersection of where this ad is located. Children are being conditioned that this is an acceptable form of advertising, and that worries some.
The petition hopes to serve as a wake up call to advertisers. It invites representatives from Glaceau to speak with members of the DePaul community about their advertising practices. They have not yet accepted this invitation.
--Carrie Emge is a student at DePaul University who signed the petition to remove the Vitamin Water XXX advertisement from Lincoln Park.

For the past decade, the conventional wisdom among doctors has been that routine dementia screening isn't worthwhile—because there's been so little that medicine can do to stop a dementia sufferer's decline. But now, that consensus is beginning to shift in favor of screening, in part because early diagnosis can help patients and their families avoid emergency-room visits, intensive nursing-home care and other potentially costly crises.
In the Wall Street Journal this week, health columnist Laura Landro reviews some of the factors behind the evolving approach. A growing number of studies are suggesting that more aggressive care management—including medication reviews, brain exercises, home-based care and counseling and other support for family caregivers—can help slow dementia patients' deterioration and reduce their incidence of hospitalization. The Alzheimer's Association has recently published a list of recommendations that can help doctors spot cognitive impairment during routine checkups, Landro reports. Perhaps most significantly, such screening is now being included in the free, annual "wellness visits" to which Medicare patients are now entitled under the Affordable Care Act. (As MarketWatch's Elizabeth O'Brien points out in a column today, those wellness visits are currently underutilized, with only 9% of Medicare beneficiaries getting one in 2012.)
Landro doesn't discuss whether the intensive health-management programs that could be triggered by an early dementia diagnosis would themselves place huge time and financial demands on the patient's family. Adult children who leave or cut back on their work to manage a parent's care can wind up forgoing hundreds of thousands of dollars in earnings and savings, as O'Brien recently reported. But to the extent that early intervention might help patients live semi-independently for a longer time, it could help reduce the financial pressure as well as the emotional strain that comes with these debilitating ailments.

SEOUL (Reuters) - LG Electronics Inc fell short of consensus forecasts in quarterly earnings on Wednesday, with profits in its TV division tumbling to around one tenth of year-earlier levels as the world's No.2 TV maker bumped up promotional spending in the year-end holiday season.
LG is set to face a challenging year with forecasts from research firm DisplaySearch calling for flat global TV sales on economic uncertainty and as many households in developed economies already own a flat-screen TV.
Currency rates also look unfavorable. The won has strengthened, reducing the value of earnings made abroad while weakness in the yen has boosted the price competitiveness of Japanese rivals.
LG's October-December operating profit came in at 107 billion won ($98.84 million), up 25 percent from a year earlier but below a consensus forecast for 151 billion won by 32 analysts surveyed by Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.
The result was broadly in line with a 116 billion won profit forecast by Thomson Reuters StarMine's SmartEstimate, which places more emphasis on timely projections from the most accurate analysts.
It was the first time LG reported under new South Korean accounting rules, resulting in changes to year-earlier figures.
LG said the profit margin at its TV business declined for a second straight quarter to 0.3 percent from 0.8 percent in the previous quarter and 5.7 percent in the second quarter. The increase in marketing costs coincided with greater price competitiveness from Japanese rivals who have benefited from weakness in the yen.
Shares in LG have been almost flat over the past three months, underperforming a 3 percent gain in the wider market. Prior to the results, its shares rose 0.7 percent, in line with a 0.5 percent rise for the broader market.
LG reported a 468 billion won net loss after booking provisions related to cathode ray tube TV price fixing charges. In December, the European Commission imposed the biggest antitrust penalty in its history, fining six firms including LG, Philips, Panasonic and others a total of 1.47 billion euros fur running two cartels for nearly a decade.
Also hanging over LG is the prospect that a nascent recovery in its struggling smartphone business may slow due to intensifying competition from aggressive Chinese players such as Huawei and ZTE. Apple Inc is also rumored to be preparing a cheaper iPhone.
LG has struggled to break into the high-end smartphone market, which Apple and Samsung dominate. In the fourth-quarter it sold 15.4 million handsets, lifting its mobile business profit to 55 billion won, versus a 2.5 billion won loss a year ago.
Keen to steal a march on rivals and burnish its reputation for TV technology, LG this month started taking pre-orders for its next-generation 55-inch TV that uses OLED technology, allowing for thinner displays that consume less power.
The TV, however, commands a $10,000 sticker price and will probably not be boosting profit margins anytime soon. LG is also expanding sales of 84-inch ultra high-definition sets, which boast four times better picture quality than full HD models.
LG has 18 percent of the global TV market, trailing sector leader Samsung Electronics Co which has around 21 percent of the market. Japanese makers, led by the likes of Sony Corp, Panasonic Corp and Sharp Corp, control around 30 percent. ($1 = 1082.6000 Korean won)

Let's face it, drivers in this city already view the city's parking regulations and the hefty fines that can accompany running afoul of them as little more than a cash cow for the city, a way to up the city coffers without raising taxes. Does the city really need to recoup $45 if you're parked in a metered spot 10 minutes longer than what you paid for?
Obviously the rules need to be enforced, and there needs to be a stiff enough penalty to make sure that drivers follow them, but in recent years enforcement has gone overboard. Last week, the City Council passed legislation that would correct that, at least partially.
First, the council passed a bill that would make it possible for traffic enforcement agents to void a ticket that is given to a driver while he or she walks to the muni-meter to pay for parking. The fact that someone could get a parking ticket while they walk to pay for parking is absolutely absurd, but under the current regulations, once the ticket is issued, there is no going back, even if a driver can produce a receipt from the muni-meter.
This is a completely underhanded tactic, and not only are we sure that it happens, as ridiculous as it sounds, we actually know people that it has happened to. It's especially unfair considering the city is pushing to install muni-meters across the city in areas that currently have metered spots, presumably because using muni-meters allows more cars to park.
But how can the city in good conscience insist and promote the use of muni-meters, and then ticket drivers because they have to walk, in some cases, from their car to the middle of the block to buy a receipt and then back to put it on their dashboard, and then issue them a ticket while they complete a process the city has forced them to undertake?
It doesn't make sense.
Secondly, the City Council passed a bill that would forbid the Department of Sanitation from putting those large neon green stickers on the windows of cars when owners forget to move them on alternate side parking days. Not only do you get a fine, but you also get to drive around with a large sticker on your car.
And those stickers are no joke.
We have been driving all over the northeast and seen cars on the interstate that had the tell-tale signs of those stickers, about half of it scraped off, the other half hopelessly stuck on the window.
It's a ridiculous way to enforce the law, embarrassing those who break it so they are all supposed to feel the collective shame of the city. On the contrary, we're pretty sure that whenever a fellow motorist sees a car with one of those stickers on its window, we don't feel outrage, we feel sympathy.
We don't even use public shame as a deterrent for violent crime, why would we do so over alternate side parking?
Beyond that, the stickers are an obvious safety hazard, creating a blind spot for a driver.
It's time to end both of these practices.
The City Council has taken the first step, now it's up to the mayor to sign the legislation and make it official.

This means now is a good time to stop and take stock of the situation. We have a little time left to make suggestions to fix the few issues that remain and to praise the changes we like to hopefully cement them into the build that is released. Hamlet made a great post regarding the current state of moonkin on the EJ forums after the 12984 beta build, and I would like to take this opportunity to express my own thoughts about the current state of moonkin.
Rotation / Complexity:
I'm having a hard time placing the Moonkin rotation on the difficulty scale. At this point I think the moonkin rotation is going to fall into one of two buckets.
- The Simple Rotation: Try for 100% DoT uptime, use Starsurge on cooldown, and cast Starfire or Wrath as filler depending on the current position of the Eclipse bar. - I'm not saying this rotation is simple. In fact, using the standard blizzard UI in the beta, I'm having a difficult time managing it without my normal addons. However, the choices you make using this strategy are simple. Is a DoT down? No, refresh it. Is Starsurge off Cooldown? Yes, cast a nuke.
- The Clipping/Delaying Rotation: Same as above, except clip and delay casting DoTs to maximize their usage of Eclipse. - Currently, the total damage a DoT will do is determined when it is cast. If you cast a DoT, the tick damage won't change when you gain or lose a buff. So the player is incented to cast DoTs during Eclipse to have as many of them buffed by Eclipse as possible. Unfortunately, the duration of the DoTs and the duration of the Eclipse buff are unlikely to conveniently match up most of the time.
This raises some interesting questions. Do you delay refreshing a DoT so that it can be cast during Eclipse? If so, what is the maximum beneficial delay? Is it a good idea to refresh a DoT at the end of Eclipse even if it has more then one tick left? If so, what is the maximum number of ticks should you over write? I would need the help of SimulationCraft to determine how helpful the clipping and delaying strategies are, but my worry is there might be significant benefits to clipping and delaying DoTs at the right time. If that is the case then the moonkin rotation will be very complicated.
The real bane of moonkin DPS in WotLK was movement. You could get mad at the RNG or the over poweredness of Eclipse all you want but the real problem was that it was to easy to lose due to movement and other fight mechanics.
It's obvious that one of the design goals of Cataclysm is to reduce the moonkin's vulnerability to movement, and I think moonkin have improved significantly in this area. First, Eclipse is no longer a timed buff, so we will never miss out on a proc due movement, a stun, or just bad timing. Second, Lunar Shower makes Moonfire spam powerful and mana efficient in the right situation. Third, Shooting Stars takes our highest DPET nuke off of cooldown and makes it instant cast so that it can be used on the move. These are all major improvements for a spec that could do very little during movement in WotLK.
That isn't to say everything is all rainbows and roses. Movement still has a few teeth to take a bite out of Moonkin DPS. The first issue is the Moonfire spell itself. Moonfire is still a directional spell that requires you to be facing the boss to some degree. If you're running away from the boss to get out of Bone Storm or not get hit by Blistering Cold, Moonfire and Lunar Shower are useless. I'm also a little worried that overwriting an Eclipsed Moonfire DoT with an uneclipsed Moonfire would not improve our DPS. However, according my quick napkin math that doesn't seem to be a huge concern.
The second issue is that Nature's Torment is a timed buff procced by DoT casts. Since it is a timed buff it is very vulnerable to movement. Plus, during movement Lunar Shower encourages us to cast Moonfire and potentially proc Nature's Torment at a time when it is guaranteed to be partially lost. That said Nature's Torment is only a 4% DPS increase in a Patchwerk style fight. Losing some of it's effectiveness due to movement isn't going to kill moonkin DPS.
Overall, Moonkin are much less vulnerable to movement then they currently are on Live. I would like to see Moonfire changed into a non directional spell like Insect Swarm, but if the current beta set up goes live I would be happy with it.
The DoTs - Based upon the current Beta build Moonkin DoTs have never been stronger in my nearly 4 years playing WoW. If I remember correctly they were about 20% - 25% of moonkin DPS in the beginning of WotLK. According to my simulator they would be about 35% of moonkin DPS if the current beta build was released and please note that moonkin DoTs currently do not scale with Haste.
Insect Swarm is a very strong spell that gets a big boost from the Glyph of Insect Swarm which is unchanged from the current live version.
Moonfire's ticks were converted from a 3 second tick to a 2 second tick in the latest beta build without changing the base damage or spell power coefficients. I hope this is an intended change as Moonfire could use the boost.
My open questions regarding Moonkin DoTs are:
- Are moonkin DoTs still intended to scale with Haste?
- Is Insect Swarm too powerful and be nerfed?
- Are Moonfire's 2 second ticks and intended change or a bug?
The Nukes - If DoTs are relatively strong then moonkin Nukes must be relatively weak. The weakness of our nukes is primarily due to the strenght of our DoTs. In WotLK, our nukes got exclusive use of Eclipse and talents like Nature's Majesty and Wrath of Cenarious. My simulator shows that Wrath, Starfire and Starsurge combined do about 60% of our damage, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. Nukes are easy, but they are vulnerable to movement. This should help our DPS in the more dynamic fights.
The Others -
- Starfall is a little less powerful, but still a very strong spell. The big question I have is when is the best time to use it? Obviously it gets a big boost if you can use it during Lunar Eclipse, and the cooldown actually matches up with Eclipse fairly well. However, it obviously does better when there are multiple targets. The exact Strategy we use casting Starfall will probably heavily depend on the encounter.
- Force of Nature feels the same as it always has. A solid DPS boost, but some times a pain in the ass.
- Thorns is very strong currently and I have a feeling it will be nerfed. At the moment it is so strong you could make an argument on the main tank full time but I have a hard time believing that is the intended use of the spell. I see it more as a PvP cooldown or a way to help an Add tank build aggro quickly.
- Wild Mushrooms are starting to get me excited. I would love to have them as I work on Heroic Lich King. I agree with Hamlet that they might be a bit to strong, but then again they are also a bit situational and take a bit of time to manage. They also got a range nerf in the most recent beta build.
I've built my simulator to stat evaluations as well. My default settings are 7000 total Spell Power (3500 SP + 3000 Int), 1742 Hit, 1000 Crit rating, 1000 Haste rating, 1000 Mastery rating, and full raid buffs. Unfortunately I don't have a good idea of what the stats levels will be for a level 85 raiding moonkin. I choose these values because they seemed reasonable and equitable. This is the stat valuation it produced.
|Marginal Value
|Spell Power
|Hit Rating
|Haste Rating
|Crit Rating
|Mastery Rating
Honestly, I was surprised by these results, but I am getting similar (but slightly different) results from WrathCalcs. Hit Rating has always been the undisputed #1 DPS stat for moonkin. If you believe these results (and I don't have any reason not to) it is a distant third behind Intellect and Spell Power. That doesn't necessarily mean we will change the way we gear. Hit Rating is still the best of the rating stats and I assume that Int and Spell Power will be received in default amounts determined by ilevel. However, it is a bit of a shock that took me a little bit to get my mind around.
Intelligence and Spell Power are the clear favorites and yes Spell Power does still exist on the beta. You primarily get it your weapon, but my old enchants and socket bonuses have it as well. They are followed by Hit Rating at a distant third which makes Hit capping still a priority. Then you have Haste Rating, Crit Rating, and Mastery Rating all clumped up in a little group.
My Haste Rating valuation assumes that the DoTs will not scale with haste. If that does change on the Beta it will be a clear favorite over Crit Rating or Mastery Rating.
Mastery Rating is the clear black sheep of the family. It's not that far behind crit in my valuation, but in ever valuation I've seen it is last. I think there are a few of reasons for this.
- First, Mastery increases our Eclipse damage. According to my simulator that means it will only impact 55% - 60% of our spells pre-Eclipse damage.
- Second, Mastery Rating has a relatively small impact on the combined Eclipse buff. Eclipse comes with a base buff of 25% and each Mastery Point increases the buff by 1.5%. When you train Mastery at level 80 you automatically pick up 8 Mastery Points for an additional 12% buff for a total base buff of 37%. So, if you increase the eclipse buff by "1%" with Mastery Rating, you're really only increasing your damage by 0.73%.
- Third, Mastery Rating has the lowest ratio. It takes 179.28 Mastery Rating to gain one Mastery Point. That is 179.28 Mastery Rating to increase your Eclipse buff by 1.5%.
Overall, I think Moonkin are in a pretty good spot. I don't know where we stand in terms of DPS when compared to other classes and specs, but if the current build went live, I would be happy with it (assuming the bugs were fixed). That said here are a few of my open questions / suggestions.
- Keep an eye on rotational complexity. I think it's in a good spot if the Simple rotation I described above is the dominate rotation, but it could get overly complex really quickly clipping and delaying DoTs shows significant DPS gains.
- A moonkin's Movement DPS should be much better in Cataclysm, but it's based on Moonfire which is a directional spell. I would love for Moonfire to be cast on any target in 40 yards if you're facing them or not.
- Moonkin Nukes are a little weaker then we are used to. The DoTs are a little stronger. As long as our overall DPS is competitive none of that really matters. The main question I have is will Moonkin DoTs scale with Haste. Blizzard said they will, and they haven't said anything otherwise, but we've been in the beta for a while with out this being included.

Selma: Yes I did.. Re: USCT Regimental history
Seventies: ok
Selma: Is that something at National Archives?
Seventies: Regimental History or Regimental Records??
Selma: Ok..there is a difference...good..Regimental Records that name soldiers?
Seventies: Regimental Records consist of a few different things. Morning Reports, Descriptive Rolls (names the soldiers) and a book of orders can't recall the name, but I have used in the past.
Daviss: oops
Seventies: Morning Reports are like the day to day operations of the Regiments... oh oh.
Selma: Hit the wrong button
Daviss: wb Sel
Seventies: ok
Selma: Does it give any other specific info on the soldier..place of birth etc...
Seventies: Descriptive rolls do.
Selma: Is this info online? or at National Archives, or on microfilm available on inter library loan
Seventies: A good descriptive roll will give the name, age, place of birth, place & who enlisted and if you are lucky the name of the last known slave owner and where they lived
Selma: This info is for klassic...
Seventies: Selma, the only information that I've seen online for those types of records are the Ancestry records for KY...
alt: there is a 'compendium" of regimental records that AYW & Bennie frequently reference .. is it? http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A2001.05.0146
Seventies: No ILL or microfilm as these are the original record books.
Selma: Hopefully klassic will find a good descriptive roll..cause her guy lists 4 different states as POB
Daviss: what regiment is she researching Selma
alt: click on the link I posted and then go to your particular state(s) and there is a "file" of regimental records for each unit mustered in for the state.
Seventies: Also just a note in the case of my ancestors there were some unit changes. They may have switched names or units. Definitely should check that.
Selma: Mustered in in TN..2nd Regiment Co. B Heavy Artillery (changed to 4th Regiment)
Seventies: okay she should reference both of those Regimental records.
Selma: He mustered in at Island 10..Bennie said that is outside of Memphis I found a history of the Regiment on line
Seventies: Also she can check RG105... and all of the MS also as sometimes the info overlaps... :}
Selma: Ah...my favorite
vkn: Bennie will be on Bernice in March
Seventies: Yes indeed. It would be great to do a project where that buffer area is documented.
Selma: Oh great...I will have to really try to stay awake.. LOL

sarnold: We would love for you to spread the word.
Selma: Give us the details..
sarnold: www.vanishinghistory.org
Selma: Ok..so give us an overview...
sarnold: We are collecting info from the public on the location of burial grounds of enslaved african americans.
Seventies: I don't live too terribly far from Fordham. Is this an online project only or would I be able to go to the campus and access records.
alt: clicked and bookmarked the site sarnold
Selma: Locations in the whole country or just the NYC area?
sarnold: the United States
Seventies: ok
sarnold: we want to create a National Burial Registry for these sites.
Seventies: I can think of two off the top of my head...
sarnold: Great!
Daviss: I hope you will post the link on the Gen and Hist forum located here sarnold
alt: nice format for submission sarnold, questions asked should be very informative when/if answered
Seventies: Now this would be kind of like what was done with the Wheat African Burial ground in TN??
Selma: Have you had any submissions yet sarnold?
sarnold: somewhat
Selma: Are there any near the campus?
Seventies: sarnold, so you all are crowdsourcing this project?
sarnold: The website needs to promoted. People need to know about the project - which will help submissions.
Seventies: ok just asking.
alt: I would imagine you are also interested in cemeteries involving FPOC sarnold.
sarnold: However, without being project the website has received submission weekly since it launched on Feb. 1, 2013. FPOC?
Seventies: Free People of Color.
alt: free persons of color..... my special area of research is Ohio pre Civil War and there are many cemteries where free blacks were buried in 'private & church' cemeteries.
Selma: You have some very well known professors on the team...Blakley, Eltis..gonna look for Rainville's book in 2014
sarnold: Yes. We are interested in burial grounds, burial sites of those who died while enslaved or those who were born enslaved and died after emancipation.
Seventies: LOL That's a lot of people..
Selma: Oh jeez that is a very tall order Have you already included the "known" burial sites?
sarnold: Yes, it is. We are aware it's a very ambitious project. However, because (sadly) most of these site might not ever be found because they have been lost to development, etcs.
alt: when you say 'after emancipation' are you speaking of individual manumission or after the Civil War and tuniversal emancipation for people of color?
vkn: sarnold how are you funded
alt: universal
Selma: Well I am working on a cemetery project now...no records..we are recording info from headstones...in the older parts of the cemetlery, we haven't gotten to that part yet..there are probably folks who had been enslaved..but we would not know unless we did the research..and there are over 12,000 graves
sarnold: Also, many of these sites are currently abandoned and forgotten. So we may not document all of the sites that exist. But we will certainly work to document those that the public will assist us in identifying.
vkn: sarnold how are you funded and what resources do you anticipate for lomgevity and are you involved with Emery out of TX? sarnold
Selma: Fordham is in the Bronx vkn
alt: sarnold, would this be an example of what you're looking for .... these are FPOC http://www.remarkableohio.org/HistoricalMarker.aspx?historicalMarkerId=106054
vkn: Gotcha. Selma Emerey is a researcher who has been doing this for many a year also connected with Saundra Brown. Name of project escapes

sarnold: Thank you everyone! Please feel free to forward and post the website to your friends, churches, etc. I will look into posting on the forum!

sarnold: Thank you everyone. I'm leaving the room now - please spread the word!
Selma: Your welcome..bye

Here's what our students have to say...
Vicki Sheridan - I had reservations about learning this way but that went the moment I started my first assignment. After only a few months I gained the confidence to start looking for work experience while still working full time in a completely different industry. That's the wonderful thing about this course, you can make the change over gradually even if you are in a different industry altogether. My dream is finally coming true!
Steven Perlmuter - I chose The Design Ecademy [because] first and foremost I needed a program that could work around my schedule. One of the best parts of the course is being able to take what we have learned from a lesson and apply it. I did not foresee my working in the field this early. The knowledge I have gained has been tremendous…and, I would not have been able to do it without Maria Flynn and The Design Ecademy.
Julie Maujean - I enjoyed working in the industry so much I decided to further my knowledge but was worried about the long hours if I studied and worked at the same time. I found with The Design Ecademy, you can study at your own pace in the time that suits your lifestyle and existing work load. Anyway, the course is so interesting you will always have time for it!! I encourage anyone to enrol without hesitation.
Kimberly Sutton - As I travel quite a bit, I researched programs that afforded me the flexibility of home study. The best part for me was the project-focused structure which gave me the perfect skills, practice and confidence to run my own design business. I am so happy with the program. Empowering yourself to follow your passion is priceless.....I am feeling both aligned and confident with my career direction now.
Mark Smith - I love learning and take a new course every year. I enrolled purely for personal satisfaction but as a result of taking this course I have already started working in the design industry and I'm planning to switch my career completely within the next year. I've taken lots of online courses and to sum up my experience with The Design Ecademy in one word it has been Exceptional. Thanks so much guys.
Stella Munene - After searching many online design courses I found The Design Ecademy. As an online course, it allowed me to apply my skills as I was studying and running my business at the same time. Each assignment promoted learning and allowed me to thoroughly explore my creativity. I thoroughly enjoyed the entire course and learnt more than I had anticipated. I would choose The Design Ecademy 100 times over.
Michael De Vries - I've worked in international finance all my life and spend a lot of time travelling. I enrolled on this course to use some of my travel time learning about my passion. Now I am planning on changing my career completely and I'm writing my business plan. I can't believe it and I'm really excited. I never would have thought it. Sounds cliché but this course changed my life. The Design Ecademy rocks!
Carolyn Ruth - I did some research and felt this course offered me the accreditation and flexibility I wanted. I sent in my first assignment, received helpful feedback and was hooked from that moment on. I learnt so much from the course. I made the scary decision to start working for myself. It was a big jump but I haven't looked back and work is flying in. It's great and I am finally doing something I love.
Ankur Jeet - I chose this course because it was online and I could study and work at the same time. [This] course was excellent from start to finish. I learned so much. After completing the course I secured a job with a design firm in Australia and I have never looked back. If you want to become a designer do not hesitate to enrol. I LOVE MY JOB and it feels great. This course has completely changed my life!
Jana Novakova - After many years of being active as an employee, when I came across The Design Ecademy I decided to follow my instinct and explore my creative side. After 3 years during which I was able to combine studies and work, I obtained a HND. I am now working on setting up a commerce platform to market specific design objects and classics. Thank you The Design Ecademy for allowing me to live my dream …
Moses Jakubowicz - I was looking into options that would help me study design while balancing out my other studies. I heard about The Design Ecademy through a friend. It fitted with my lifestyle and I decided that it would be perfect for me to study without giving up my daily schedule. I'm enjoying learning new things, harnessing new ideas and of course the great support from the school.
Ria Thompson - It was very satisfying to receive a diploma half-way through the course so I could begin applying for work while continuing with my studies. I have learned a great deal and I'm truly looking forward to even more exciting possibilities as I continue with the second stage of my study while building and expanding my portfolio – which is one of the greatest advantages. Thank you all so very much.
Mary Holmes - I thoroughly enjoyed the course and found it hugely beneficial in developing the tools to take me to a professional level. The nature of the course in being assignment lead meant I could gradually build up a client base while I was learning the trade. I have a whole new lease of life and a career which is not only rewarding and interesting but allows me to make a difference to people's lives.
Charlotte Comber - It sounds really cheesy, but I love everything about this course. The combination of technical and creative topics is the perfect mix for me. I am the kind of person that needs variety and this course has it in bucket loads. It's a challenge to keep up with the assignments as well as working full time but it never really feels like work. I love finding out more and more about it everyday.
Pedro Sousa - The online course has been great so I can work whenever I want and I have finished it really fast because I cannot stop doing it. I love it. My wife calls The Design Ecademy my mistress! I have learned so much and I have bonded with so many great people all over the world. I was already working in the industry and the course has paid for itself many times. Don't think about it, do it.
Elizabeth Mc Daid - A very special "thank you" to my tutors. They guided me through my projects and were always extremely helpful & supportive. I loved the speed of my results & honest feedback – always steering me in the right direction. I really enjoyed this course – it made me think "outside the box" but most of all, I was able to express my "creative side" and qualify at something I have a huge passion for!
Imani Patel - This course is totally under-priced, enrol before they realise! I failed to complete an online design course but really wanted to pursue this so when a friend recommended The Design Ecademy I decided to try again. This course was priced significantly lower so I thought it was worth taking a chance. Thank goodness I did. The course was thorough but most enjoyable and support was excellent.
Pascal Valentino - After ten years working in the travel industry I was looking for a new challenge. The course helped by giving me the opportunity to learn and improve skills on a large spectrum of subjects. The course is thorough and very interesting. The tutor really supports you with useful advice and encourages you to give your best, whilst being very objective on your work. I really enjoyed the course.
Laurence Meyer - I am the mother of 3 kids and because of the international career of my husband, I needed a school which offered flexibility and would be recognized abroad, particularly in the USA, where I live now. I am now even more convinced that I have chosen the right school! I can see that even if you do not know your online students personally, you really care for them and you want them to succeed.
Ann Slattery - I started as a very nervous student but I blossomed as the months went by, I learnt so much. I have no doubt that the qualification helped me enormously to get work. It has given me the confidence to seize every opportunity that comes before me. I feel now that the world is my oyster and it is all thanks to this course. I would highly recommend it. It's hard work but very well worth it.
Sandra Dunne and Karen Armitage - With children, family and work commitments we both needed to find an internationally recognised course which offered flexibility and a home study option. It took us 16 months to complete the course and we bravely applied for the "Showhouse" programme. We were chosen from over 200 applicants. It made us realise how much knowledge we gained from this course. We would highly recommend it.
James Lambrou - My name is James Lambrou. I was in Management/Marketing for a number of years but knew I was in the wrong profession. Since completing my course I started a new design company with a business partner. We handle residential & commercial design projects and we have been featured in some of Australia's leading publications. It has been the most challenging few years but most rewarding.
Wendy Casey - I was a Vice President of a large American bank in Luxembourg. After completing the course I now write a monthly magazine column, which has proved to be excellent advertising for me as I also deal with private, individual clients and with companies. The work is really exciting and highly varied. I would never have believed it possible to change careers as I did at the age of 45!
Luciana Mazza - My name is Luciana Mazza and I am a freelancer working in TV. The variety of academic qualifications I achieved allowed me to take my career in the direction I wanted and gain professional credibility. This experience significantly improved my career's prospects and changed my life. The skills I learnt helped me to secure my place in the industry and I think anyone can do it!
Peter Jenkins - My daughter booked me on this course as a surprise gift. Initially I was unsure what to expect but once I got started I found it to be a splendid experience. Officially I am retired but this course has given me a new focus and I feel like I have a second chance at life. I realise that it's never too late to change your life and it has helped me to find a new sense of purpose.
Pavlina Santana - I chose "THE DESIGN ECADEMY" because the courses are certified and offered a lot of flexibility which was crucial for me. Embarking on this design journey with "THE DESIGN ECADEMY" is one of the best decisions I have ever taken. The course has surpassed my expectations in every single way. The content is amazing - very well structured, very practical and down to the point.
Nabeel Hassan Ali - My name is Nabeel Hassan Ali, I am 26 years of age and I come from Sitra in Bahrain. I needed to find a formal qualification to be able to meet the requirements of my work. I searched on the internet and came across this qualification. I am really pleased that I have taken this course. My qualification has been so beneficial to me, I really recommend taking this course.
Zana Legemzova - I came across this course and from the very beginning I knew that this is what I wanted to study. The course gave me good knowledge and background about the industry. I enjoyed the course exceedingly. It was hard work, but great fun at the same time. I am really grateful for this course as it has helped me on my way and I am very happy I made this decision.
Silvia Ceria - Looking for a course in distance learning I've been analyzing numerous options. I was searching for a complete program, that could prepare me to work in the industry in real life, and a serious school, where tutors' feedbacks are substantial and really personalized. What I found at the Design Ecademy is all of the above and even more!
Veronica Kazak - Having worked in a completely different area (Sales and Marketing) I have always had a passion for design. One thing is for sure the only way to succeed in a profession is to do what you really love. I wasn't sure about taking a course due to limited availability, but The Design Ecademy made it possible and opened this world for me
Emily Poole - Everyone enjoys being pleasantly surprised; such was the case when I discovered The Design Ecademy. If you are looking to find an authentic and fully recognized education in design then I would suggest you enrol with The Design Ecademy. However high your expectations are I assure you that you will not be disappointed.
Pascale Van Bergen - During the last years we moved from one country to another and when the opportunity of home study appeared I jumped right on it. It has been great time to learn and prepare the assignments – even though the work is very challenging! Thanks for your support and advice, I feel ready to start a new life at 50!
Leanne Herman - Before graduating this course I taught English in Spain for 4 years and after that I moved to New York. This course did an excellent job in preparing and giving me the knowledge for my career. It has given me the confidence to seize every opportunity that comes before me.
Ina Wagner - This course helped me to achieve the right qualifications to start my career. I have now successfully set up my business. I truly found my dream career.

Movie Insider
Movie Insider (themovieinsider.com) offers an extensive selection of movie information focused on current and upcoming releases.
Brian Renner first launched the Movie Insider in July of 1999. As a movie fan himself, Mr. Renner aimed to maintain a website that effectively provided behind-the-scenes news from movies at each stage of production.
The website's slogan is "taking you beyond the studio gates!"
Movie Insider targets entertainment consumers of all ages. These consumers are heavily interested in new movies coming out in 2011, 2012 and beyond. They want to know something about a movie or DVD before they are willing to spend their entertainment dollars.
We're looking for a logo refresh of our Movie Insider logo. Our current/old logo and a new mockup logo have been attached as a starting point.
Style and Form: The words "movie" can be lowercase or uppercase, while the word "insider" should be uppercase. Ideally, the 'o' in "movie" should incorporate a movie reel with a runaway film strip. However, we're definitely open to other variations. Artwork should be original; do not use any stock images or clip art in the logo.
Colors: The logo colors should be consistent with the current website – gradients of white and yellow/gold.
Typeface: The typeface should be clear, simple and bold. San-serif. As an example, fonts used in current/old logo (News Gothic and Incised901 Ct BT) and new logo (Klavika Bold and TradeGothic).
Scale: The logo should appropriately scale to 200x105px because it fits in confined space on the current website (see attached website image).
File Requirements: Transparent PNG (200x105px) and layered Photoshop .psd (RGB, 2550x3300 pixels, 300 resolution).

Ketamine is a drug used as an anaesthetic in emergency departments of hospitals and by veterinarians. It can cause hallucinations, feelings of euphoria and floating, being in a dream-like state, out-of-body and other experiences. As a result, it is also used as a club or party drug. In such settings, ketamine has acquired the nickname "Special K." Depending on the dose and how it is taken, ketamine can have a relatively swift onset of action, occurring within one to 30 minutes after ingestion. Ketamine's effect can last for up to three hours.
Ketamine can also cause paranoia, confusion, dizziness and feeling disconnected from the body. Some of these effects may be responsible for accidents and subsequent injuries reported among ketamine users.
Exposure to ketamine can become addictive, as users strive to repeat their initial experience with the drug. This can lead to more frequent usage and the consumption of larger doses over time. There have been growing reports of ketamine toxicity when used recreationally, affecting the bladder and causing pain, difficulty urinating, frequent urination, infections, blood in the urine and urinary incontinence. Kidney injury from ketamine has also been reported.
Reports from the UK suggest that the use of ketamine as a party drug is increasing. As networks of substance users are connected, trends seen in the UK may also be occurring in Canada and other high-income countries.
Doctors in Brighton, UK, have reported two cases of injury to the liver and bile ducts that have been linked to ketamine use. In both cases the affected men were HIV positive and it appeared that the concentration of ketamine in their bodies may have been affected by their HIV treatment.
The first case was a 38-year-old man with what doctors described as "a nine-year history of well-controlled HIV infection." His CD4+ count was nearly 800 cells and his viral load less than 40 copies/ml for the past nine years. His HIV medications were as follows:
He was taking these additional medicines:
He sought medical care because of the onset of these symptoms:
He told doctors that he had episodes of these symptoms four times in the past year.
His intake of alcohol was modest and he did not inject or use other substances.
The man disclosed that he had initially been taking ketamine orally at relatively low doses two years ago. However, in the past year, he had increased his intake to between 1 and 2 grams per day (self-prescribed), he said, to help deal with the abdominal pain he experienced.
Laboratory and Other Testing
Analyses of his blood found elevated levels of the following liver enzymes:
Technicians conducted tests for viral hepatitis, autoimmune or inherited liver conditions but did not find anything remarkable.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of his abdomen did not find any tumours, though it appeared that his common bile duct was inflamed. Doctors inserted a small tube with a camera to assess his digestive tract but did not find any lesions or gallstones. However, they did notice that the muscle tissue (sphincter) controlling the opening and closing of his common bile duct was swollen, so they removed the sphincter.
Quitting Ketamine
After this surgery, doctors advised the man to quit ketamine. He did and within four weeks his symptoms and abnormal laboratory tests resolved. Repeated medical investigation for 18 months after he stopped using ketamine has not found any return of his symptoms or abnormalities in his digestive tract.
Another HIV-positive man, 25 years old, sought care three times in eight weeks because of recurring abdominal pain and nausea. He had been HIV positive for three years, with a CD4+ count of 154 cells and a viral load of 6,356 copies/ml. These results occurred despite the prescription of his HIV treatment, as follows:
Doctors reported that this man's ability to take his medicines exactly as directed was "poor." In reviewing his medical records, they noticed that he had disclosed "occasional ketamine use" three years ago. However, in the past year the man told doctors that he had increased his intake to between 1 and 2 grams, taken two to three times weekly. He did not inject ketamine or other street drugs. However, his intake of alcohol was very high.
Lab tests of his blood revealed elevated levels of liver enzymes as follows:
Based on these results and his disclosed alcohol intake, doctors advised him to reduce his alcohol consumption.
He followed their advice but his symptoms persisted. Additionally, he was also experiencing recurring bacterial infections of his urinary tract (caused by E. coli).
As with the first case, investigation did not reveal viral hepatitis, autoimmune or inherited liver disease.
Analysis of his urine found blood and ketamine.
Scans and Procedures
Ultrasound and MRI scans of the man's abdomen detected a swollen common bile duct. Visual inspection of his digestive tract and his liver and gall bladder did not find any tumours or gallstones or any conventional cause of his problems. Doctors removed the sphincter at the end of his common bile duct. Liver biopsy did not reveal any scarring or tissue damage from alcohol.
Doctors changed his HIV treatment to this combination:
A month after his scans and procedures, the man returned for medical care because of abdominal pain. Doctors then advised him to stop using ketamine. Two months after stopping ketamine, the pain and elevated liver enzymes resolved. Subsequent blood tests and MRI scans have not detected any abnormalities.

Hi, Emanuele Briganti here, for GuidoMaggi elevator shoes. These luxury, Italian-made height increasing shoes are more than just a fine product. They are the result of my own desire to stand taller, plus the tradition of fine shoe making in my family.
For you, it's as important to look stylish as it is to look taller. You appreciate fine craftsmanship, first quality, full grain leather and fabulous fit and feel. Perhaps you, like me, tried those inexpensive, Asian-made elevator shoes or shoe-lift inserts. Maybe they didn't last as long as you like. It could be that they were uncomfortable to wear and made walking difficult. No matter.
Now, you can finally enjoy first rate looks, comfort and safety in shoes that make you three (3) full inches taller. Made with the finest materials and hand crafted for superior fit and finish, these height increasing Italian leather shoes are the best in the world.
If you're concerned that other people might suspect you wear shoes to make you look taller, consider this: nobody will expect "tall shoes" to be made of superb, handcrafted Italian leather. It'll be your secret! I make the best for you because I want the best for myself. Now, you can share in this desire to stand taller in the best elevator shoes money can buy. You might even save money, because you won't have to buy new shoes every three months because the cheap ones fell apart – again.
Whether it's casual, sneakers, dress, formal, tuxedo or even for the bridegroom – GuidoMaggi elevator shoes, for you!

Flixter Tells How Mobile App Installs Went Over The Holidays.
|image courtesy of TC
From the reports from Flixter telling us how the mobile app installs went, it looks like Apple iPhone and iPod brought Steve Jobs App-y Holidays. Android was not doing bad either but RIM and Windows Phone types do not like movies or the platforms are not doing better.
"We averaged more than 10,000 installs per day on four different mobile platforms this Christmas. And looking at the devices we expect to do well in 2011, that number could easily be 7 or even 8 next year," Flixter co-founder Greenstein says.Apple had 61.5% of the downloads, Android had 30.1%, a almost half of that of Apple. 7.9% went to RIM devices and Windows Phone had 0.5%. The percentages were from 1,027,000 downloads over the holiday week.
Pretty soon we will know how all the platforms did when they release their earnings.

Our wall mount mailbox collection exudes classic style. Beautifully crafted with attention to detail, these premium mailboxes enhance the exterior of any home. Perfect for neighborhoods featuring mounted letter boxes, each wall mount mailbox brings style and elegance to whatever home they grace. Our collection ranges from classic to contemporary designs, certain to complement and accentuate every type of aesthetic. Constructed out of the highest quality materials, our wall mount mailboxes are both beautiful and durable, ensuring long lasting elegance and stability. Whether you're looking for a mailbox that can withstand heavy rains or a mailbox with a finish to match your homes décor, we can help you find exactly what you need.
While the post mount often goes overlooked by homeowners, our posts and accessories can add the perfect touch to an already striking mailbox design. All of our posts are designed with only the finest materials meant to withstand a wide variety of weather conditions and everyday use. Their outstanding construction and sturdy base also make for a convenient installation process. Many of our posts also feature powder coating, which is tougher than most conventional paint jobs and doesn't compromise the post's overall aesthetic. Each of our posts, from our most basic to our most decorative, is available in a variety of colors for added convenience and expression.
These post mount mailboxes include an array of decorative choices, allowing homeowners to easily select their mailbox color, custom lettering, and a post that fits their installation needs. All of our posts and mailboxes are designed with the customer in mind, allowing for endless combinations and simple installation. We offer several color options in addition to the choice between the basic post, standard post, and decorative covers for posts. With so many options to choose from, everyone's budget and aesthetic desires are sure to be met.
The elephantrunk™ parcel drop is the best solution for parcel deliveries, providing security of parcel storage for larger packages. The elephantrunk™ is always home even when you're not, providing you with peace of mind that your parcel deliveries are no longer missed or will go missing. You'll never miss a package delivery at work or worry about stolen packages while on vacation. This full service receptacle can receive multiple parcels at one time, has an outgoing partition for your outbound shipments, and a vacation stopper for when you don't want to receive parcels or any other form of delivery. Its sturdy design is made from cast aluminum and heavy gauge steel powder coated in several decorator-friendly colors. The elephantrunk™ parcel drop embodies a variety of architectural styles and adds a splash of curb appeal to any home. Our wide variety of finishes allows for customization and expression, no matter what kind of home finish you're trying to complement.
In addition to our decorative mailboxes and mailbox posts, we offer a wide range of house numbers and accessories designed to complement your aesthetic tastes perfectly. All of our house numbers undergo a five-step process to reveal the natural beauty of each metal. Our first step is casting. Brass ingots are melted and sand casted into a near-net shape of the finished product, using slightly more material than necessary. After casting comes the forging process. Under extreme force, the sand casting is impacted at room temperature between two mating molds, called forging hammers. The extra material is then forced out of the mold along the gap between the molds. Cold forging aligns the material's grain structure to produce very strong parts. It also improves surface consistency and reduces surface blemishes, which is important for decorative items such as address numbers. The third step is trimming, in which the extra material that was forced out during the forging process is trimmed from the part. The fourth step is sanding, where the number's surface is sanded to eliminate blemishes. The fifth and final step is polishing and lacquering. In this last step, the surface is further polished to reach the desired gloss level, and then lacquered to protect it. Each number is complete with hidden mounting screws to avoid unsightly holes and screw heads after hanging. Hang them flush against your wall or mailbox post for a floating numbers effect. At 4" and 5", they are a convenient fit for any surface.
Architectural Mailboxes Frank Lloyd Wright Collection is a collaboration with the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation. Each piece was designed with the iconic architect in mind and how we can embody and preserve his legacy. The collection includes a mailbox, cabinet hardware, house numbers and door knockers in various finishes. Each piece is carefully cast and individually hand-finished resulting in unique finish variations, reflecting a character as distinctive and unique as Frank Lloyd Wright, the iconic American architect who inspired them. These timeless designs and finishes will add a bold statement to your home.
We offer a wide variety of colors and accents, from the classic designs to modern details, guaranteed to match your tastes. Whether you're looking for a traditional curbside installation or a contemporary locking mailbox with minimalistic features, we can help you find an elegant mailbox to suit your needs. Each collection featured on our site was hand-chosen in order to provide our customers with superior products that will never go out of style.

Susan Vogt saved the crib from her four children and set it up when her son and his wife brought their baby to visit. The son informed her that the drop-side design was unsafe and no longer legal. So she turned it into a piece of furniture with pillows, but the charity she tried to give it to didn't want it, either. She ended up using the metal parts as garden stakes and kept the mattress to put on the floor when children come to visit.
"That was probably the hardest piece of furniture that I ever had to get rid of," Vogt said.
It wasn't just an object. The crib was filled with memories of her own children.
Vogt was thrifty, and the storage space in her home in Covington, Ky., was neatly organized with things she thought she might need — until Lent 2010.
"I was trying to decide how to make it more meaningful," she said. "I had the usual things to give up, like desserts, but then I looked around my house and realized that although I never considered myself a conspicuous consumer, I had collected more things than I needed. It seemed like letting go of some of that stuff would be a meaningful Lenten experience for me."
Vogt committed to giving up one thing on each of the 40 days of Lent. "I wanted to see how that would change me, and it did more than I thought," she said. "I thought that I would be doing some good for others by sharing things with folks who needed them more than I needed them, and indeed that happened, but it was more than that. On the spiritual side, it put me more in solidarity with those who did not have the luxury of having things that they were free to give away."
Vogt decided to continue the project for a year and found fulfillment in being liberated from objects and in being able to share her abundance.
"It's a spiritual challenge to put our stuff and our lives at the service of others," she said.
Vogt is the author of five books, including "Blessed By Less: Clearing Your Life of Clutter by Living Lightly" (Loyola Press, $13.95).
Our Sunday Visitor: What Scripture inspires you to give away things?
Susan Vogt: The story in Luke 12 about the landowner who wanted to build a bigger barn to store more things. I think about that and what I am spending my time and money on. I wonder why I'm saving all this stuff, because it can be taken away at any moment by any catastrophe and, ultimately, by death.
OSV: Why do people hang onto things they don't need?
Vogt: For me, it was the instinct that someday I may want to use it and might need it. And the emotional side reminds me of a happy or special time, or a landmark in our family that I want to honor. The object is a way to bring the memory to mind. Sometimes it's just a saving instinct that you're going to wear it again or use it again.
OSV: Any easy ways to say goodbye to stuff?
Vogt: We've taken photos of items, and you can also have a farewell by wearing a piece of clothing one more time, or using a piece of dinnerware one more time. And doing it with honor. Sometimes I'm not ready to give something away, and then the second time through the closet, I don't know why I still kept it, and now I'm ready.
OSV: One Lent, you took the Food Stamp Challenge for two people to eat on $9 a day. How did that go?
Vogt: There were a lot of trade-offs, like choosing what was cheapest and what would create a nutritious meal. It took a lot of knowledge, and we had to calculate every meal.
OSV: What has decluttering taught you?
Vogt: Spiritually, the process helped to remind me that my worth and value are not dependent on what I own or wear, or even the deeper thing of how much I accomplish. That's not the measure of my value.
OSV: What about giving up things that take up your time?
Vogt: I'm currently working on not saying yes to everything people ask me to do. I have to let go of my inclinations to do everything, because I can't. This is learning a stewardship of time.
OSV: Has giving away material things helped you with emotional clutter?
Vogt: It puts it all in perspective that it's not worth hanging onto a grudge, or pushing relationships with anybody to get my own way. In the bigger picture of life, healthy relationships are going to be what I value most. It's not important to win an argument if I lose a relationship.

Harbor Freight Tools Donates To LAUSD Adult Schools
Board President Monica Garcia Salutes a Generous Partner for a $1.4 Million Gift of Tools and Equipment
Jan 10, 2013, 06:30 ET
LOS ANGELES, Jan. 10, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- During these hard economic times when resources are scarce, School Board President Monica Garcia welcomes Harbor Freight Tools as an enthusiastic partner ready to support Los Angeles Unified School District's (LAUSD) Adult Education. Thanks to the $1.4 million gift of tools and equipment from Harbor Freight Tools and its Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Eric Smidt, many students in the District's Division of Adult and Career Education will benefit from high-quality industrial education programs. The donation, in addition to promoting creativity and innovation, will encourage students to turn their passions into paychecks.
To view the multimedia assets associated with this release, please click http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/harbor-freight-tools-donates-to-lausd-adult-schools-186373751.html
"Our schools and communities are stronger when we have partners that help us get the job done," said Board President Monica Garcia. "Thank you Harbor Freight and Eric Smidt for giving us the tools and resources to continue workforce training. Together we can help restore opportunities that are in much demand in our community."
Harbor Freight invited LAUSD's industrial career education instructors to visit the company's Pasadena store to compile "wish" lists. And the shopping lists were long – they asked for and will receive a massive amount of tools and equipment – more than 55,000 items capable of filling 15 forty-foot truck loads. All will be put to good use in industrial education programs for careers in air conditioning repair, electronics, plumbing, construction work and many other fields.
"For far too long, vocational education has not been given the attention and funding it deserves," said Eric Smidt, CEO of Harbor Freight Tools. "At a time when a well-trained workforce is essential to compete in the global economy, the United States too often falls short. Harbor Freight Tools wants to help turn the tide, and we're starting at LAUSD where the budget for their Career Technical Education programs is just one quarter of what it was just two years ago. With our tools in Los Angeles classrooms, we can help thousands of students work their way toward meaningful, higher paying careers."
"We are grateful for Board President Garcia's strong and continuous support as evidenced by her outreach and initial contact with Harbor Freight in facilitating this generous donation," said Michael Romero, Executive Director of the LAUSD Division of Adult & Career Education, Options Programs and Beyond the Bell. "Our current and future technical education students are the winners in this industry partnership."
The mission of California's Career Technical Education (CTE) system is to provide industry-linked programs and services that enable all individuals to reach their career goals in order to achieve a high quality lifestyle, to be competitive in the global market place, and to sustain California's economic dominance. The LAUSD Career Technical Education training programs focus on short-term, high-quality course sequences that prepare students to earn industry-recognized certification and obtain viable employment. Students receive hands-on training through project-based experiences that meet the requirements and standards of the job market. Career Technical Education will engage every student in high-quality educational programs, developed in partnership with business and industry.
Founded in North Hollywood, CA in 1977 and now based in Calabasas, Harbor Freight Tools is the leading discount tool retailer in the U.S. selling high quality tools at "ridiculously low prices" in over 400 stores nationwide and on its website http://harborfreight.com.

Last month was holiday time here in Germany. Most of my friends had their moms visiting them. When ever I used to call them, they usual reply I got was " I am playing with my son, and lunch?? yeah.. my mom took over from me, she is cooking something." An other friend of my said " I had some shopping to do, so I left my daughter with my mom, and they were playing together, she made delicious parathas by the time I came home." Again a similar story, one of my friend had guests for dinner, and when I called her the next day casually to ask how it went, she said " It went very well. All of them enjoyed the food so much... my mom made Biryani, and it was all sold up. "
So, got the pattern, when moms visit us, we handover the kitchen to them... But I thought I would be different. I wanted to ask my mom to rest while I cooked for her . My mom came here on Sunday... I was all excited... As I have decided earlier, I did not make my mom cook ... I asked her to relax and play with her grandson.
Today morning I woke up and came downstairs to get milk for my son and prepare for breakfast... and what do I see???
She is already up, milk already boiled, and cooled and ready to go into bottle. Everything prepared for breakfast... and she was planning on what to cook for lunch.... my my... u see.... Moms :-)
So its not that we handover the kitchen to them... they take over from us :-) or is it the same ... (confused)
Coming to the recipe... This was made by my mom for today's lunch.... a simple and delicious dish which goes very well with Steamed Rice or Rotis.
What You Need :
Beans : 400 gms
Moong Dal : 1 cup
Ginger : 1 inch piece, finely chopped
Green Chillies : 2, finely chopped (increase or decrease acc. to taste)
Onion : 1 , finely chopped
Turmeric : 1/4 tsp
For Tadka :
Dry Red Chillies : 2
Mustard seeds : 1 tsp
Jeera : 1 tsp
Oil : 3 Tbsp
- Soak Moong Dal in enough water for 2 hrs. Strain and keep aside.
- Boil a cup of water in a medium sized pan, add salt and add chopped beans. Cover and cook till done. Strain the beans, and reserve this water.
- Heat oil in a wide pan. Add all ingredients under tadka.
- After the mustard seeds splutter. Add onions, ginger, green chilli and turmeric.
- Fry for a minute.
- Add moong dal. Fry for a minute.
- Add 1/2 cup of the water from Step 2.
- Add salt, cover and cook on low heat for 5 minutes. Till the water disappears.
- Add Beans and fry for 2 - 3 minutes on medium heat, and then on high heat for 2 min.
- Serve hot with Rice or rotis.
Do not add strained water in Step 7, more than 1/2 cup, else it becomes mushy.
Add a handful of chopped coriander leaves for extra taste.
If you are in a hurry, or if you forgot to soak dal before hand. Boil dal along with beans. Strain immediately after done.

Heroic ToT fights invalid!
Posted: Thu Mar 14, 2013 7:31 pm
Validation has been implemented for most Throne of Thunder bosses on normal difficulty. Since heroic detection isn't yet available, heroic fights are currently classified as normal. This causes them to be marked invalid as the boss HP is too high for normal difficulty. Heroic detection will be added soon and existing reports will be updated to reflect this once it is in place. We're just trying to keep the normal mode rankings clean for now.

I've spent the last week riding this new board daily in OBX and wanted to pass on a few words about it to anyone who's interested. Disclaimer: I do not work for Shinn but I do know the guys at AOK (who are the US importers) and offered to write this up as I have been a fan of the Shinn boards for some years now. With that said, lets move on.
At first glance, you can't miss the rocker - this baby has plenty of rocker. I was concerned with that much rocker that the board would just not go upwind - but that's not the case. Certainly not the best board for going upwind, the Monk slots in about average in this discipline. The ride however is exceptional - smooth is the easiest definition. It just handles anything you throw at it, and the ride is calm and relaxed. Absolutely no fin spray at all - again it's like a hot knife going through butter. Carving turns is smooth and fun, with plenty of edge grip for hard carving. The pads and straps are very comfortable, much nicer then the older Nobile versions that came with the Shinn's a few years ago. The foot strap is covered in a thick neoprene, very plush, and the foot pad is seriously thick. The footpad took a few minutes to get use to because they were so thick, where I was expecting to feel feedback from the board through my heels, but with these pads is just a smooth ride. The finish of the board is high gloss on the top, IMO a cool top skin for the board. The bottom, well, I'll just leave it to you to decide whether you like the gorilla or not.
All in all, a very very good board. easy to ride, comfortable, good pop, great all around riding board.

The Blink family of electric vehicle charging stations was just unveiled at the Plug-in 2010 conference in San Jose, California and we're already envisioning them sprouting up on street corners and garages around the country. The intuitive and simple design was created to help early electric vehicle adopters jump right into the charging game. The designers are hoping to outfit your home and community with a dense network of stations so your daily driving routine is fully electrified.
The Blink line consists of a home charger and a public charger and comes to us thanks to a partnership between ECOtality, Inc. and Frog Design. The creation of the charger is a seamless integration of ECOtality's knowledge of the vehicle of the future and Frog Design's impeccable eye. You can really see these chargers fitting perfectly into parking lots, roadside stations and home garages without looking out of place. The two companies involved see charging stations as the key to EV success and they believe they've created a perfect model. Not only are the chargers easy to use, but they're also smart – they can inform you about your vehicles electric performance.
"We've taken the lessons learned from our over two decades of electric vehicle infrastructure experience and applied them to create a charging infrastructure network that emphasizes station location, charger communication and user experience," said ECOtality North America President Don Karner. Along with ECOtality's comprehensive transportation infrastructure knowledge Frog Design has added their unparalleled knowledge of human to technology interaction to the model. They've thought of everything, from using the familiar cable (similar to a gas pump) design to making the top of the charging station rounded to dissuade you from placing your coffee cup down — liquids and electronics don't mix!
