Epic Games Inc., a North Carolina-based video game manufacturer, closed its office in Baltimore County last month, laying off 40 employees, Maryland's Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation said Thursday.
Epic announced in August it was opening Impossible Studios in Hunt Valley, hiring 36 employees, some of whom had lost their jobs months earlier at Big Huge Games of Timonium.
Big Huge closed in May after its parent company, 38 Studios, abruptly shut down because of financial problems. Former Orioles and Boston Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling launched 38 Studios in 2006, and the company filed for bankruptcy last summer.
Epic declined to comment beyond a statement posted on the company's website Feb. 8 by founder Tim Sweeney.
"When former members of Big Huge Games approached Epic last year, we saw the opportunity to help a great group of people while putting them to work on a project that needed a team," Sweeney wrote. "It was a bold initiative and the Impossible folks made a gallant effort, but ultimately it wasn't working out for Epic.
Laid-off workers received three months' severance, he said.

Product Information
|Strategy - Logical, Rubik's Cube
|6 in x 6 in x 1/2 in / 15.25 cm x 15.25 cm x 1.25 cm
Product Description
The game has a 4x4 plastic game board with 16 spaces. There are 16 double sided game pieces: 8 blue/green and 8 yellow/white that fit in these spaces. One set is embossed with the letter "X" while the other is embossed with the letter "O". The clear lid snaps shut for easy storage and portability, so you can take your Rubik's® Tac Toe with you anywhere. At the beginning of the game, the board is empty. One player takes the 8 "X" pieces and the other takes the 8 "O" pieces. To win the game you must align 3 of your game pieces of the same color (all green, all blue, all white or all yellow) in a "locked" row, either horizontally, vertically or diagonally. A row of three is "locked" when none of the game pieces in it can be flipped into an adjacent square because all the adjacent squares are occupied.

If you don't already know, we here at Amoeba are very much underway with our monumental archiving project for our website Amoeba.com, simply called the "Vinyl Vaults". It's a really spectacular beginning to what is and will be a huge undertaking in offering to the public digital transfers of the most remarkable older, oblique and hard to find works of creative peoples around the globe throughout the history of recording. I myself, am curating a large part of this, and have been very excitedly pulling out many, many unique pieces of vinyl out of the used LP buys that we take in at Amoeba's buying counters, and sending them into the ether (ie,our great team) to be archived and considered for sale on Amoeba.com. Our sound team takes these copies of the LPs, 7" singles and 78 rpm discs and digitizes them via ProTools, into 24-bit files, and then make mp3, mp4 and 16 bit .wav files (CD quality) from the 24-bit master and split up the sides into tracks for folks to download. We sometimes offer of the highest resolution 24-bit file as well for a certain title. And in many cases the original LP or 78 or 45 we used to digitize the sides is available right there next to the download.
How do I decide what we save to digitize and offer to the public as I go through all these LPs? The records almost speak to me as I sift over the aquisitions we've purchased in the collections we buy. If I don't know the record, I'll see the look of the cover, the paper texture, and the era of manufacture as the first things revealed. Even the weight and smell of the "thing". Exotic LPs have a feel to them, a way they communicate to the holder that they are something interesting, distinctly special, and a thing to be investigated further. If you've held a phonograph record in your hands you know what I mean. Often the packaging will tell me what's inside, but how many records say "vocals" or "guitar" or "piano", and yet how different can all these records be? The actual sound on the disc is an exciting mystery of immense promise before I hear it. So then, to play a little bit, I "needle-drop" (sample bits of) so many records in a day. And it just so happens that Amoeba offers 1 1/2 minutes of free sample listening for all the records' songs, so this is comparable to how I listen to potential pieces for the Vaults. Once chosen, a disc will undergo a discerning ear's analysis and judgement for condition, and a little research to see if folks already know about this record. Ultimately, the bliss of finding a transcendent musical performance by a deceased or obscure artist or on a long-defunct label is intoxicating. And to think that others can later enjoy these provocative sounds via the "Vinyl Vaults" is exhilarating.

U.S. Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission
Auto Parts Supplier Failed to Promote Black Man Because of Race, Federal Agency Charged
DETROIT – Bridgewater Interiors, LLC has agreed to resolve a race discrimination lawsuit filed by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), the agency announced today. Bridgewater Interiors, a joint venture between Johnson Controls and Epsilon LLC of Detroit, produces seating and interior systems for major automakers in North America.
According to the EEOC's suit (Civil Action No. 2:08-CV-12343 filed in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan), Bridgewater subjected Michael Christopher, an African American who worked on the line of the auto parts supplier, to discrimination by failing to promote him to a maintenance position because of his race.
The two-year consent decree resolving the case requires Bridgewater to conduct annual training of its managers and supervisors on race discrimination. After the EEOC filed its suit, Christopher suffered a work-related injury and brought a worker's compensation claim against Bridgewater. The decree also acknowledges that Bridgewater will pay $105,000 to Christopher to resolve all of his claims, including his worker's compensation claim.
"This is a favorable resolution for everyone," explained EEOC attorney Nedra Campbell. "We are confident Bridgewater is committed to complying with Title VII and ensuring that all of its employees are offered equal access to promotional opportunities. Bridgewater should be commended for taking the necessary steps to resolve this case."
Race discrimination, including denying an employee a promotion based on race, violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The EEOC enforces federal laws prohibiting employment discrimination. Further information about the EEOC is available on its web site at www.eeoc.gov.

Why post this clip? Because Sunday is a very important day for Talknormalists: it's the day on which the annual Golden Crocoduck Award is announced. This is given by Peter Hadfield, also known as potholer54, to the creationist who offers the most flagrant breach of the 9th commandment: "the one that tells you not to tell fibs" as he explains. The award is given every year on 28 October – the feast day of St Jude Thaddeus, the Patron Saint of Lost Causes. It's too late for you to vote; but please check out the nominees in the video above (one of whom actually tries to convince viewers that the earth must be stationary because when we jump we land in the same place), and then the rest of his channel.
In the summer of 2006 I was asked to go on the BBC News 24 (now BBC news channel) to have a middle-aged-manchat with Peter Sissons about why there was this thing called YouTube which was becoming really popular with da kidz. Why, he asked me, would people want to go to a web site to watch a fireman in a tumble dryer? – he really did ask this – especially when there's real TV on 24 hours a day, with politicians and experts standing outside buildings and stuff (he didn't say this. I deduced it from the height of his eyebrows when he was watching the fireman video).
Get with it daddio! I sort of said – I was living in Hoxton, on the doorstep of London's famous Silicon Roundabout, and we all spoke like that, even those of us who were old enough to know better – da peeps need to express themselves! This is the social media equivalent of the "everyone's got a book in them" argument. It says that everyone has got a YouTube video inside them, waiting to get out: just maybe not a very good one.
So six years later I'm all for YouTube in principle, it's just that much of it is total crap. I'm not talking about bands I don't like or people I disagree with. There's a ton of that on TV too. But watching the peeps express themselves on subjects such as why the earth is the centre of the universe, or how we know dinosaurs lived on earth alongside humans, can be quite disheartening. There's eight years of material uploaded to YouTube every day. Much of it, it appears, is uploaded by people who were asleep in science lessons, aren't really interested in looking up the answers, but still think we need to hear their half-formed ideas. Alternatively, they simply repost something by someone they decided to agree with, without stopping to think why they might learn something by checking whether it's true.
Sometimes it's hard to tell which bits are the worst, but luckily we have potholer54 to help us decide. If you have any interest in using logic and curiosity as a way to debunk pseudoscience, creationism and the denial of our role in global warming, he's an excellent guide.
His videos are short (usually between 10 and 15 minutes), expertly researched with all sources listed, and very, very funny. It's a great way to learn if ever you want to explain why there isn't evidence for a global flood, or why Lord Christopher Monckton, the UK's embarrassing denier of man-made climate change, is misinformed and wrong. The Monckton takedown starts here and ends (for now) here.
It's hard to pick a favourite from his channel, but I always enjoy Hadfield's demolition of American talk show host Bill O'Reilly:
Unlike most of his fellow ignoramuses on YouTube, O'Reilly is "paid to broadcast his ignorance to millions of people" (Hadfield's description) via Sissons-era TV. This is one of the best arguments in favour of YouTube: without it we'd have a lot less potholer54, but the same amount of Bill O'Reilly.

There are many times when you do not want to share original images you took from your trip, and instead just share smaller thumbnails so that no one copies and reuses your original images.
Thumbnail creator is a freeware application, which will allow you to create thumbnails from a single image, or create thumbnails of all the images in a folder. Once you download and install the software, you can create thumbnails by clicking on the load button.
You can specify the height and width of the thumbnail and also add a watermark to the image. To process multiple images in a folder, you will have to click on the Batch process button.
The thumbnail images can be saved as either Bitmap or JPEG files.
Techie Buzz Verdict
Thumbnail generator allows you to generate thumbnails from multiple images inside a folder. In addition to that, it also allows you to add watermarks to your images to protect it further.
The only problem with this application is that it adds the watermark to the middle of the image, it would be good if it allowed to change the location of the image. Another interesting feature would be to allow for images/logos to be used as watermarks.
Ratings: 2.5/5 (Good)

About Sharon Rogers:
Being an old hand at looking long and far for potential Playmates, we're always cheered to discover a comely young lass close to home, and they come no closer than our titian-haired Miss January, Sharon Rogers. Sharon graces the Playboy scene as a part-time editorial assistant whose presence we would gladly share from nine to five and then some. She has repeatedly declined our full-time office offers, however, on the unimpeachable grounds that additional editorial work would encroach on her two other metiers. For, besides her afternoons at Playboy, multifaceted Sharon is a schoolgirl in the mornings and a Bunny evenings at Chicago's Playboy Club. As a 10-o'clock scholar, our 21-year-old Playmate attends school — the private secretarial variety — four days a week, improving her shorthand and typing.
She spends afternoons at the Playboy offices, filing, sorting, and locating pictures in the extensive Playboy photo library, which now includes many shots of Sharon herself. Besides her pictorial laurels this month, Miss January made a fetching snow miss as our ski-clad November cover girl, and also appeared in the July Bunny story and as the roommate of our November Playmate, Terre Tucker. Terre has since departed for a New York modeling career, and Sharon now rooms with other Bunnies in the Chicago Bunny dormitory. Here Sharon and roommates Linda Castorina and Judy Ryder indulge in their share of late-evening dormitory high jinks, which includes everything from philosophical talk sessions to friendly wrestling. Frolicsome Sharon is five-foot-two with eyes of blue, who looks closer to 16 than her actual 21 years. Though she certainly doesn't have time on her hands, in her free moments she enjoys Steve McQueen movies, the Bullwinkle show, Ayn Rand, backgammon, and watching sports-car races. "I keep busier than most girls I know," Sharon says, "and I sometimes think I'm just not getting enough sleep. I hate to snooze too much, anyway, because when I wake up I just know I've missed something. Besides, I've heard somewhere that too much sleep makes you gain weight, and I'm terribly worried I'll get chubby." Those fears are groundless, for she has no trouble getting her petite 35-22-35 form into a Bunny costume. Born in Seattle, Sharon has lived in Chicago long enough to call it her home. She nurtures acting ambitions, which is understandable, since she's a second cousin of the late Will Rogers. Sharon studied piano as a child, but gave it up after high school. She enjoys "any sort of music except hillbilly," and concedes a special weakness for the classical. Listening or playing, her favorite of favorites is Rachmaninoff's Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini. She's wild about Wilder — Billy or Thornton — and also enjoys steak, chocolate milk shakes, Paul Newman, talk dates over cafe au lait, and stuffed animals, which she considers true friends. For a glimpse of Sharon, bearly dressed with a very close friend, vide gatefold.

Tomorrow afternoon I will embark on an adventure unlike any I've had before. I will kiss my kids and husband goodbye and travel alone (for the first time in more than five years) to the windy city of Chicago. I will arrive at the Sheraton hotel and likely not know what hit me as I join 1,500 other women bloggers for the sold-out Fifth Annual BlogHer Conference. There will be general sessions and break-out sessions, the community keynote, hugging, swag, friendships forming, more swag, networking, and more parties than you can shake a stick at.
I had been feeling really overwhelmed and anxious about it all, but honestly right now I am mostly just excited. This definitely isn't something I do everyday and I'm excited to be a part of it all – to learn and grow as a blogger and to meet sooooo many women who, up until this point, I've known only virtually.
Yes, I will still be nervous and will be keeping my bottle of Xanax on hand just in case, but I am hoping I can push through the anxiety and turn it into an unforgettable experience.
Over at BlogHer, Denise recently suggested folks write a blogging primer on themselves as a pre-BlogHer get-to-know-you kind of post and here's my go at it:
My name is Amy. I live in Colorado with my husband Jody (yes, he's a guy) and our two kids Ava (5) and Julian (2.5). I'm currently a stay-at-home mom (hence the "Domestic" part of my blog name) and I also write as a contributing editor for BlogHer. I love finding new ways to "green" the way we live (hence the "Crunchy" party of my blog name) – from organic gardening to composting to cloth diapering to biking to using environmentally-safe non-toxic cleaners to making my own yogurt and granola (the best!) and much, much more. I like to post the occasional Green Challenge to motivate others (as well as myself) to live a more eco-friendly lifestyle.
I try to raise my kids using the Attachment Parenting philosophy, though I admit most of what I do is just parenting by instinct. I sometimes make mistakes though and am thankful that tomorrow is another day.
In addition to writing about parenting and eco-friendly living, I also enjoy writing about maternal health. I am a big believer in the power of a woman's body (both to give birth and to nourish her baby) and I had my son at home with the help of my midwives.
I also consider myself an activist and most recently was involved in campaigning for Barack Obama and trying to get my city to allow backyard chickens. (I finally got the OK to get a permit!)
I grew up in an alcoholic family which is something that, after years of repressing, I am tackling head-on now. I kind of felt like I had no choice after I was diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder at the beginning of 2009. There are a lot of things in my life I am tackling head-on now (thanks to therapy) to help myself be a mentally and emotionally healthier person.
I sometimes struggle with how much information to share on my blog. There is a lot that I want to share that I don't feel that I can out of respect for others who are involved. However, I often find myself sharing quite a bit anyway (things about myself and my anxiety disorder) and feel comfortable doing so as long as it's not going to harm anyone.
Anyway, I bring up the alcoholism in my family's past because growing up in those kind of conditions definitely shaped who I am today – which is a mostly quiet, reserved person, at least until you get to know me (or I have a glass of wine *wink*). Sometimes people thing I am just being snobby or stuck-up because I don't talk much (especially in larger groups), but I'm just shy like that. I prefer one-on-one or small group conversations to those with several people. I feel more comfortable that way.
I love to write and am also a photography nut (and did portrait photography professionally for a while), though I haven't picked up my SLR in months. I imagine that I will get back into again someday soon. I consider myself kind of crafty, but just don't have the time to do much. However, after Jody recently suggested I make my own business card holder for BlogHer because "it would be the ultimate crunchy thing to do," I had to take him up on the challenge. I sewed that by hand last night with some fabric I had and I cut a button off an old shirt. 😉 It's not perfect, but, provided it doesn't fall apart, should work just fine.
My favorite quotes are, "You must be the change you wish to see in the world" – Gandhi (I had that printed on some stickers I will be passing out at BlogHer) and "Knowledge is power." I try to live by both of those mottos.
I'm looking forward to meeting many of you at BlogHer (tomorrow, eeep!!!). Please remember that if I don't immediately jump into a conversation or run up and introduce myself to you, it's not because I'm stuck-up, I just move at my own pace (though would welcome you running up to me to introduce *yourself*). 😉 If you have time, write up a "getting to know you" post of your own and then link to it over on BlogHer and leave me a comment here with the link too so I can read about you before I meet you. 🙂
And if you aren't going to BlogHer (I will miss you!), but want to know what I'm up to (hiding in a corner? sneaking away for a nap? eating some Chicago-style pizza? partying with my roomie PhDinParenting?), I plan on tweeting while there so be sure to Follow me on Twitter. You can also search flickr for photos tagged "Blogher09" – maybe I'll turn up in some. 🙂
Lastly, a big THANK YOU to my sponsor Stonyfield Farm for helping me with my trip expenses. If you are interested in trying some of Stonyfield Farm's new organic Oikos Greek Yogurt, track me down at BlogHer and I'll give you a coupon for a free container of it. 🙂

Boy's tuxedos come in kinds of styles and colors... Read More
Tuxedos come in 3 types of lapels. The decision you need to make is what type of lapel you want for your tuxedo. The most popular of the three lapels is a notch lapel. It is called notch because it has a notch in the lapel. It is the most popular of the three right now, although it is not traditionally the tuxedo as what the tuxedo is defined.
A peak lapel is what a tuxedo really was when tuxedos came out. A peak is called that because it has a peak, like a mountain peak, at the lapel that points upward. A one-button peak was the first tuxedo that came out. The reason the peak was the tuxedo is notch lapel was the suit. You're used to seeing two-button notch lapels as different suits. A tuxedo, besides having satin on the lapel, is defined by having a peak lapel. The peak, even though is the most traditional, is not the most popular. In fact, it doesn't sell very well at all right now. If you want tradition, the peak is the way to go.
The third type of tuxedo was traditionally not a tuxedo at all; it was traditionally called a dinner jacket. There are two types of dinner jackets: black dinner jacket, which was essentially a black tuxedo with a satin lapel that was a shawl, where the entire lapel was satin. Then the ivory jacket, which is the same type of jacket in ivory color. Traditionally people came home or went to dinner with their suit, took off their suit, and wore a shawl lapel coat for dinner. That's why it's called a dinner jacket. It still sells and rents, but it is not as popular as the notch lapel.

Wine Biz Interview #10 The Most Famous Wine Writer In The World, Eric Asimov

(I am sure that Hosemaster knew that)
Nice interview, and Eric answered beautifully, mostly.

"Delusional conveyance of useless information". Kind of like knowing that maltol smells like creme brulee and comes from oak (not sur lie time), - as does furaneol, which smells like strawberry jam or dried tropical fruit. So it's useless to know that? We can just say that the wine is "fruity" (when in reality it has gobs of oak).
An accomplished winemaker told me that there is nothing a wine critic can teach him or contribute to his understanding about his wines - I think it's because most wine critics dismiss this real information as "useless information", refuse to try to learn it, focus on creative writing and "cultural context" and "experience" rather than actually understanding wine (or whatever the subject at hand is). Which is how Le Tourment Vert is declared a good "absinthe"....
Now, can I get a mop? It's all wet and sticky in here....

Where do you come up with these questions? You are brilliant AND entertaining Sam. And Eric hung right in there, too. Very fun and informative.

One of your best interviews, Samantha! (Thomas beat me to the fun part. Damn that east coast advantage!)
You are queen of the coups!

If you'd stay up all night I'd lose the advantage.

- Samantha Dugan said...
He did do beautifully and I owe him...huge for doing this!
Different strokes I guess. I see wine as much as a feeling or emotion as thing. I read most tech sheets and my eyes glaze over, clearly not the case for you and I happen to dig that about wine, wine writing, the wine business in general. I happen to agree with Eric here...
Jenni and Marcia,
He was a total trooper by answering my silly ass questions. I knew going in that he was cool as hell so I knew he would be able to deal with some of my um...unconventional questions. He is awesome.

My inner fangirl has been squee-ing all day! Loved the questions and the answers, Sam and Eric.

Sweet lady I am far from famous, some of my posts might be infamous (Goddamn Pink & Stink...this is what gets tweeted?!) but Eric happens to be someone I respect very much and was truly honored he would play along.
I was snickering for sure, now just hoping he forgives me! One suave cat that Asimov.
Dude, me too. Well dunno about squeezing as much as wheezing, I am far older than you my dear. I was thrilled that Eric would let me take advantage of him, so much as it is and I confess to getting pink faced when mentioned with like movie stars and junk....I don't squeal but I did let out a snarffle. Thanks for commenting girlie!

Brilliant read. Makes me like Eric even more. And you. Ceers.

My Gorgeous Samantha,
When I had dinner with Eric Asimov and Alfonso Cevola about 16 months ago, naturally, your name came up. Something about us being joined at the blog post, like Siamese Poodles. It was Eric's observation that he believed your wine blog came the closest to literature. Alfonso and I agreed wholeheartedly. I believe someone then said mine came the closest to compost.
Thomas, I thought "Was you ever bit by a dead bee?" was uttered by John Belushi on "Saturday Night Live." But I'm guessing Walter Brennan is the correct response, though I think the line was from "The Real McCoys" and was spoken to Pepino.
Samantha, My Love, it's quite a coup to have Eric submit to your questions. Who's next? Jancis? Oz? Huckleberry?
I love you!
- June 9, 2011 at 8:46 AM
- Samantha Dugan said...
Why thank you! Have to say Eric's answers made him even more adorable in my eyes too....
Ron Love,
As you know you were the one that told me Eric read and liked what it was I was doing here, can't believe it was 16 months ago though. Man, the good old days.....
Not sure who, or even if, there will be another interview, after you and Eric where does one go?
- June 9, 2011 at 9:54 AM
- Joe said...
I think he held the cards a little close to the vest on some questions, but it was a fun exchange. I like whoever writes your questions.
Would love to see a new series: "Wine Biz Interviews on Sodium Pentothal and a Magnum."
- June 9, 2011 at 11:56 AM
- Samantha Dugan said...
Writes my questions?! Much like my antics in the bedroom, I do my own stunts. Humpf!

- Carl said...
antics in the bedroom? How does one get so lucky to experience that?
- June 9, 2011 at 4:46 PM

I'm pretty easy, takes only making me feel like I matter...and maybe a birthday card, so my insurance agent is so in there....

- Do Bianchi said...
is it okay to say a wine is "Killer" if you're from Southern California? I mean, like, you know, we should get some kinda dispensation from the pope, right? ;)
Eric (Eric the Red) is such a nice guy and the day they folded his blog into the Times Dining aggregate blog was the "day the music died."
Great post, lady, and great to see Eric here...

Javier Gazzarri, MathWorks
An accurate battery pack model is essential for hardware in-the-loop testing of Battery Management System (BMS). In this webinar, MathWorks engineers will demonstrate how to scale battery models from cell-level to pack-level and the subsequent preparation of the battery pack model for real-time simulation. A MATLAB function creates a battery pack model of arbitrary size and connectivity. The function partitions the model for concurrent execution on multicore real-time computers. The flexibility of scripting the creation of pack models allows the user to efficiently test multiple configurations for optimal utilization of multicore targets, including load balance, data transfer latencies, and scheduler overhead.
Using live demonstrations, MathWorks engineers will show how you can use MATLAB and Simulink tools to:
Javier Gazzarri is a senior application engineer at MathWorks in Novi, Michigan, focusing on the use of physical modeling tools as an integral part of Model-Based Design. Much of his work gravitates around battery modeling, from cell level to system level; parameter estimation for model correlation; battery management system design; cell balancing; aging; and state-of-charge estimation. Before joining MathWorks, Javier worked on fuel cell modeling at the National Research Council of Canada in Vancouver, British Columbia. He received a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering from the University of Buenos Aires (Argentina) and M.A.Sc. (inverse methods applied to surface sensor design) and Ph.D. (solid oxide fuel cell degradation modeling) degrees from the University of British Columbia (Canada).

Current Revision: 1.15
Why was PaKnPost Pro written?Like most software, to scratch an itch. In the corporate world, the size of email attatchments is usually restricted to preserve bandwidth and email server file system resources. This is frustrating for many users who have a legitimate need to send and receive large files. Most people understand email and web browsers, so PaKnPosT leverages this understanding by using HTTP via Web browser to convey files, and text email to notify file recipients. To ease corporate concerns, optional administrative controls feature file type and size restriction, user restrictions, virus scanning, encryption, password protection and anti-spam measures.
How Does It Work?A user is presented with a Web interface for selecting up to ten files at a time which are uploaded to a unique Holding Area on the PaKnPosT server. The Holding Area is a directory having a randomized name with 1 x 10 to the power of 23 different combinations. The user is then prompted for their name and email address and the email addresses of recipient(s). The recipient(s) receive a plain text email including instructions for retrieving the shared file(s) and a confirmation email is sent to the originator. The PaKnPosT administrator may optionally allow users to password protect the Holding Area and/or strongly encrypt the files in the Holding Area.
New Version 1.15!The PaKnPosT Pro 1.15 release includes bug-fixes and security enhancements.
CREDIT for discovery of vulnerabilities and patching to Edvin Rustemagic and Grega Preseren, with thanks. It builds on 1.14 which incorporated:
- Support for a Contacts Directory! The Optional PaKnPost Pro LDAP Plugin makes it possible to create or refresh the Contacts Directory from a corporate Exchange address list or other LDAP compliant directory. The LDAP Plugin is only available by making a Donation
- An automated Plugin Installer for easy administration of system add-ons and enhancements, where these are released as Plugins
- Full user logging
As of Version 1.11:
- Fully ported and tested on Win32 platforms!
- Easily installed on any compatible platform using the new cross-platform installer!
- Able to accept your custom CSS stylesheet control of look and feel! (thanks Lucian Pricop)

DemoPaKnPosT Pro Demo (Please note that the demo has been bandwidth throttled in order to fully demonstrate the system features and to ease the load on the server).
How Do I Make A File Sharing Facility On My Website?Easy!
That's it!
- Download the PaKnPosT Pro software suite
- Follow the Installation instructions appropriate for your web server. If you have shell access to your web server you may use the automated install script which comes with the software suite. If you don't, you may install the suite manually.
NOTE: Your web server needs to have Perl installed (most will have) and your web server will need to be configured to allow execution of Perl scripts (most already are).
- Use your web browser to configure and customise PaKnPosT Pro for your site
Of course you are free to change the suite's appearance and graphics to suit your site's look and feel.
What Does PaKnPosT Pro Cost?Nothing. Nada. Nil! There are no licensing costs...
Of course if you wish to, you may make a Donation to help ensure the future development of PaKnPosT Pro, but this is not a condition of use.
PaKnPosT Pro PluginsFrom time to time the PaKnPosT Pro team will release additional system functionality in the form of Plugins. Some of these will be bug-fixes or general system enhancements or upgrades and will be made available free of charge. Some Plugins will add Enterprise level functionality and will be made available only in response to a Donation.
Plugins which may be accessed by making a Donation are listed on the Donation form when a "Donate" button is clicked.
AssistanceIf you would like assistance with installing or customising PaKnPosT Pro, this may be available by emailing email@example.com. All the contributors to the PaKnPosT Pro Project are volunteers, and whilst they are professionals, they are not paid. The Project supports itself on the basis of volunteer effort and user Donations. Whilst expecting nothing for simple requests and bug fixes, it would be very kind to make a Donation for more complex assistance. The more complex the assistance, the larger the Donation perhaps??.
If you would like us to install PaKnPosT Pro for you on your site, talk to us! We'd be only too pleased to help you provide a world-class file sharing service BUT THE FOLLOWING NOTES WILL APPLY.
Although all care and attention to detail will be taken for any assistance which requires members of the PaKnPosT volunteer team to access your servers, please note that NO WARRANTY OR RESPONSIBILITY WILL BE TAKEN BY PaKnPosT PROJECT MEMBERS FOR ANY REAL OR PERCEIVED DAMAGES OR LOSSES WHICH MAY RESULT FROM ANY ACCESS OR CHANGES MADE IN ORDER TO INSTALL PAKNPOST PRO OR ANY REQUIRED SOFTWARE.
Please note that NO ACCESS OR CHANGES TO YOUR SERVERS WILL BE ATTEMPTED WITHOUT YOUR EXPRESS REQUEST AND PERMISSION IN WRITING AND THAT YOU SHARE ACCESS CREDENTIALS AT YOUR OWN RISK. Of course, we will NOT share these credentials with anyone.
Reporting BugsIt happens from time to time... sometimes we screw up, or just write ugly code. If you suspect you've found something that is broken, or just plain ugly, please let us know by emailing email@example.com. Thanks!

Fanfarlo - Words and Music - 2012
We were introduced to the Brit band Fanfarlo by the folk influences and electric instrumentation of its debut, 'Reservoir,' and now they turn up the pop with an 80s-inspired vibe on the new album, 'Rooms Filled With Light.' During a visit to FUV, they performed a few of the new songs and spoke with host Alisa Ali, who says: 'You never know where a conversation is going to go with some people. I meant to stay on topic with Fanfarlo when they came in to talk about their new album, but somehow we ended up talking Sci-fi and Communism. I almost like it better that way though!'

The annual Polperro Festival takes place Sat 16-24 June promising an action packed week of entertainment while the new Looe Food Festival provides a weekend (June 23 and 24) to tempt your tastebuds with produce from land and sea. (Scroll down to see the outline programme of events).
Accommodation with free bus links
If you want to visit the Polperro Festival and need somewhere to stay, accommodation in the small fishing village of Polperro may be in short supply or at a premium and parking (minimum £4 charge) can be an issue. So avoid the crowds and the seagull noise! and enjoy our quiet location leaving your car behind in our free car park at Polraen Country House in the Looe Valley. Go green and catch the bus! We benefit from an hourly bus service No 573 which runs to Polperro from 07.42 until 17.49 while later bus services run from Looe. The last evening return from Polperro to Polraen leaves Polperro at 18.20 but much later services run between Polperro and Looe allowing you to enjoy the full range of evening entertainnment in Polperro's pubs with the last service back to Looe at 23.20 from where you can catch a taxi.
Here you can download the No. 573 bus timetable
Bring your bus pass if you are a senior citizen, and you can enjoy the scenic ride to Looe and Polperro for free as concession passes are recognised by Western Greyhound buses in Cornwall.
At Polraen Country House, we currently have availability throughout the week of the festival from £87 per room per night including breakfast with optional dinner available. Call us direct for the best deals or book online via our website which will be up to 15% cheaper than online booking agents. But book soon as the end of the Polperro Festival coincides with the Looe Food Festival, taking place over the weekend of 23 and 24 June. And there's no prettier journey into Looe than on the scenic Looe Valley Line where you can board the train at Sandplace for the 5 minute journey into Looe skirting the banks of the river while you watch the birds and wildlife from your carriage window. Here you can download the train timetable
So it really is a great time to visit, when you can enjoy two festivals in the same week! The Looe Food Festival will take place in a large marquee in the Millpool Car Park in Looe, where you can tempt your taste buds with an array of Cornish seafood and local produce from sea and land. There'll be a host of leading Cornish food and drink suppliers, chef demos, brewery bar….and more over a fantastic weekend with FREE ENTRY TO THE FESTIVAL MARQUEE!

Designing New Garage
I planning on breaking ground on my new Garage/Shop in June 08.
I thought I would start a thread here and update it as the project progresses.
Right now I am in the design phase so comments and suggestions will be appreciated.
First, I am posting a picture of a gas station that is the inspiration of my design:
I am planning on a 24' X 48' building with a 19' X 14' drive through. It will have a 10ft. ceiling throughout and the garage doors will be 8' X 8' (Edited 1/6/08 to 9ft wide by 8 ft high)
Here is rough sketch of my plan:
Here is my floor plan so far:
The room on the east will be for my "Clean/Dirty" work area. Sanding, painting, etc. I will have no tools or furniture in that room so it can be cleaned out easily.
The 3 rooms in the back from left to right will be the bathroom, compressor & dust collector room and the beadblaster & parts washer room. The rest of the area will be the main work area.
Last edited by roger1; 01-06-2008 at 06:35 AM. Reason: Changed size of Garage Doors
Nice ...
You must live on an acreage, or at least on a very large lot?
I had a heck of a time building a 24 x 34 in my back yard.
Check with your municipal government to find out their rules before going too far.
something i would do if i were building this garage would be,
instead of closing those two work rooms in completely, why not just have end walls and have them open to the floor, that would eliminate two doors and 14 feet of wall, and i wouldnt have your bathroom open to the shop along with a door to the outside,
Great looking plan. Just remember ,It won't be big enough. When I built my shop I poured the slab then had a brick layer build a cinder block wall 3 blocks high which = 2 feet,then build on top with standard studs and you have a 10 foot ceiling. This keeps the wood off the ground for washing out shop with pressure washer and doesn't soak bottom plate, also fights termites.
Last edited by speedydeedy; 01-05-2008 at 06:20 AM. Reason: Add info
Those old stations are great. Try to put some time into studying old pics on the web to get all the exterior trim details correct, like soffits, roof overhangs, and mouldings. A little thought and a very small extra amount of money can make it a real knockout.
The only thing I am concerned about is your choice of 8' wide doors. I guess it depends on the width of your cars, but I prefer a 9' minimum....but I know that might throw off the proportions of your style. I like 30's-40's style stations, and I'd be at a loss as to picking a garage door style.
I think your project is great...I hope you keep posting..
Great looking plan.
Things to think about:
1) I don't know if you are in a cold part of Texas or not. But if you are I would strongly consider putting in in-floor hydroponic heating. It's the biggest mistake I made in my shop - not having it. I'm on my feet a LOT in shop throughout the winter and it gets pretty brutal. The rest of the shop is at 60...but the floor is ice cold. But then, maybe you need A/C more than you need heat.
2) Just be aware, when you put running water and a bathroom in your shop it will most likely bump it into a different category for tax purposes AND for insurance purposes. Both will be more costly than just a plain old garage. At least that's the way it is here in WI.
3) Before you decide on a final ceiling/roof height, think long and hard about a lift and the design requirements for that particular lift...and the vehicles you will be lifting. Some require a 12' clearance to function properly.
Always learning...and sharing what I've learned.
To view links or images in signatures your post count must be 10 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
Cboy's comment on the bathroom sparked another recollection for me.
According to local by-laws ... each building that has running water has to have it's OWN sewage line. In other words, I couldn't simply "tie it in" to the sewage line to the house.
A whole new line all the way from the back yard to the center of the street out front ... 100 feet or so ... was "guesstimated" to cost something ridiculous ... $10,000 +.
I thought "For that much I can just run into the house ..."
F&J's comment on the 8ft wide doors is bang-on too.
I put 12-footers on mine, and it still takes a little manuevering to swing in from the alley with my pickup truck (extended cab - short-box). Pickup trucks usually have some wide mirrors as well ... so unless you want to fold / un-fold mirrors ... you may want wider doors.
I am installing overhead infra-red heaters. Unless you are going to keep your garage heated all the time ... that in-floor heat would take a while to "ramp up". I see my garage / workshop as an "occasional" or "weekend" thing ... so I want to heat it only when I need it. I would expect that Texas would have a much shorter "heating season" than Alberta Canada, though.
SpeedyDeedy's "curb wall" idea is a good one, too. I had mine (only 6" high) cast and poured with the slab, and then built a 10-ft stud wall on top of that.
Pictures are in my jounal.
I am STILL waiting for my (9' x 12') garage doors.
The gas and electrical are roughed in, the infra-red heater is hung, siding and roofing are complete.
I still need to insulate and hang PLYWOOD interior walls ... I'm not using gyprock.
I'm also planning to mount my workbench on casters so that I can move it around as needed.
I had the contractor cast in some mounting holes in the concrete floor for 4 chain-pots ... for use in anchoring and pulling things with a cable or hydraulic "come-along".
I requested LOTS of electrical outlets ... one duplex receptacle about every 4 ft or so for a total of about 16. Two 220-volt as well. One for a compressor, and another for a mig welder.
2 ceiling fans to keep the air moving. Seeing as how infra-red heating is "line of sight" it might be a little chilly in the "shadows" and under the vehicles. The air movement will also help to keep the windows clear.
You sometime have to deal with the board of health,When you put running water,Don't know about where you are,But here you do.
I am a Hydrologist, so I am an expert on this. I have three water wells on my 4 acre property. Two I use for the yard and one for the house. Don't have to deal with any kind health department at all for private wells in Texas.

Sounds good.We have to deal with those a** Holes.
Good thoughts. Thanks.
#1. Not too concerned with heating here in San Angelo, TX.
The winters are pretty mild. Matter of fact it is 78 degrees right now. I will be putting in A/C for the summer. I think I will build in a couple of heat/cool units. One for the main area and one for the clean room.
#2 As far as getting a permit in San Angelo, I just have to make them believe it is not going to be for living space.
#3 I have given this a lot of thought and decided if I ever get a lift it would be one of those low units that can be disassembled and moved out of the way. Don't need a high ceiling for one of those. I have a house attached 2 car garage already so I have enough vehicle storage.

Where did you see that old gas station ? that's cool!!!
Here's the link:
Ambler's Texaco
Here's a drawing of another actual gas station in Gonzales, TX that I think is really cool. At first I thought about using this style, but I really didn't want to go with a flat roof.
Already have checked with the city.
My total out-building square footage can be 1/2 of the square footage of the main house including the attached garage.
So, I have no problem there. Yes, my lot is 4.1 acres.

Best Buy Product Testing | Claro Acne Clearing System
Read more...
When I was asked to review the Claro Acne Clearing Device I was beyond thrilled. You see, I never had bad skin as most people do as teenagers. For the most part, I had clear skin with only the occasional blemish or breakout. Then somewhere along the way after pregnancy something changed. I'm thirty something years old and I have blemishes (isn't that such a fancy word for zit?) on my lower jaw at least 2 weeks a month. Isn't that lovely? I will be the first to admit I don't have the greatest skin care routine, but I don't wear makeup much either. I use a foaming face wash and a moisturizer daily and that's about it but it just isn't cutting it. The Claro claims to treat blemishes making them less red, less noticeable and heal faster so you see why I was excited to give it a try.
When I received the package, I immediately opened it up to see what this thing was all about. The device comes with a power cord, a pair of safety goggles like you would use in a tanning bed and a very detailed instruction booklet.
When I started reading the instructions, the first thing was to give it an initial charge of 15 hours. I'm ready to start zapping zits… tomorrow! It is important to wear the safety goggles but I was so intrigued, I think I forgot to use them the first time. Now, I will usually just close my eyes. It's a bit cumbersome to hold the goggles and line up the Claro at the same time.
To use it, you simply press the power button, line up your blemish between the two posts and it will beep letting you know it made contact. Then you press the button again and it begins pulsing lights and heat to the blemish for 6 seconds. Then you repeat for the second treatment. The Claro website says that it is painless and for the most part it is, but I did come across a few places where it was a bit more uncomfortable. It is definitely more noticeable in the areas where the skin was broken. It wasn't a "pain" just a little pricking feeling. It's only 6 seconds though so it's no big deal.
What are all those flashing lights? It's called IPL. The Claro website says that "Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is a clinically-proven, safe technology that combines HEAT and LIGHT for fast, effective treatment of acne. CLARO uses heat and light to stimulate porphyrin, bacteria that cause acne to produce singlet oxygen that attacks and eliminates the acne bacteria."
So, did it work?
I think in my head I was hoping for a magical disappearing act of blemishes. That wasn't the case. That wasn't Claro's claim either though. It says that it reduces redness, makes blemishes heal faster and makes blemishes less noticeable. It did just that. After a few days of using the product, I noticed an overall decrease in redness and puffiness of the blemishes. I also used it on an area that felt like there was a new blemish on its way and it literally made a U-turn and went away before it ever really surfaced. Since using the Claro, I haven't had an actual breakout in weeks.
What do I like most about the Claro? Obviously its effectiveness is number one!
Other pros…
- It's lightweight and portable.
- It doesn't require a prescription unlike other acne treatments.
- It's more cost effective than dermatologist or spa visits.
The cons…
- The device needs a guide on it to show you the position of the light window. Sometimes I would wonder if I had it lined up correctly or missed the spot.
- To effectively use the safety goggles, they need an elastic strap to use them hands free.
For more information on the science behind Claro and to see actual user submitted photos, visit the Claro website at www.clrstechnology.com.
If you have monthly breakouts like me or a teen with mild to moderate acne, visit Best Buy to purchase a Claro Acne Clearing Device. While it does carry a retail price of $195.00, the initial investment is far less expensive than dermatologist appointments and prescription medications and similar costly spa treatments.
The reviewer has been compensated in the form of a Best Buy Gift Card and/or received the reviewed product at a reduced price or for free.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. – The Lipscomb men's and women's cross country teams competed at the Notre Dame Invite in South Bend, Ind., Friday afternoon. The women finished in 11th place while the men had a disappointing 23rd place finish.
"The women ran well overall," Bill Taylor, director of cross country and track and field, said. "We knew it would be tough without Katie (Bianachini) and she was definitely missed. To finish 11th without her is pretty solid.
"I look at the results though, and see that we should have finished seventh. That could be significant at the end of the season when at-large points are determined."
Winning the meet was No. 2 Florida State followed by New Mexico. The Lady Bisons finished ahead of Northwestern, Ohio State and Baylor in 12th, 13th and 14th, respectively.
Freshman Sally Larson was the top runner for the Purple and Gold for the third meet. She finished 27th overall in 17:41.10. Junior Tessa Hoefle finished 53rd in 17:58.40.
"A lot of good stuff happened individually," Taylor said. "Sally ran like a star. She's just going to get better and better. She is willing to sell out, which is what it takes to be elite.
"Tessa took a big step forward today. It was definitely one of her best races and certainly her best big race. She has made terrific progress."
Lipscomb also got a strong run out of sophomore Madi Talbert who finished 56th in 18:01.70.
"Madi ran great, too," Taylor said. "She was with Sally for quite a while. She faded a bit in the middle but is really close to figuring this out in a big way."
The top five for Lipscomb rounded out with freshmen Brooke Gordon in 86th place in a time of 18:22.50 and Barbara Lee Ball in 126th place in 18:44.10.
"Another freshman on the rise is Brooke, who stepped it up to be our number four today," Taylor said. "I'm very proud of her. Barbara Lee also moved her performance up as she gets stronger every week."
With the first points race of the season over, Taylor will be looking forward to the next meet at Pre-Nationals.
"We have a lot we can learn from this race and a lot of room for improvement," Taylor said. "It's tough to be so close to picking up at-large points and miss them, however we are moving forward and will be far stronger in two weeks."
The men finished 23rd with freshman Juan Gonzalez continuing to be the top runner for the Bisons finishing 74th in 25:31.60.
Columbia won the meet followed by No. 7 Tulsa and Princeton.
"Obviously we are pretty disappointed in the men's result," Taylor said. "Apparently a number of our guys fell around 200 meters into the race. So it is hard to judge their performance which also makes it tough to comment.
"We were in dead last at the mile and moved up some, so that is good. We really expected more."
Freshmen Christian Freeman and John Kingstedt finished 108th and 112th, respectively. Freeman had a time of 25:52.60 while Kingstedt's time was 25:55.10.
"Juan had another good race," Taylor said. "I am very happy with his progress. John and Christian ran really well too."
With the result not being what Taylor had hoped, he isn't making excuses for the performance.
"When you fall, you've got to get up and race," Taylor said. "I'm not sure we did that to the best of our ability. It's something we will assess and talk through over the next few days. Beyond that, we just have to look forward."
The next meet for both squads will be Oct. 19 at the Pre-Nationals held in Terre Haute, Ind., the site of the NCAA National Meet. A contingent of the squad will head to the Front Runner Invite in Chattanooga, Tenn.

Rescuers are combing through leveled homes and apartment buildings in the hunt for survivors following Wednesday night's fire and explosion at a small fertilizer and grain-storage company near Waco, Texas.
Initial estimates put the number of fatalities at up to 15, with more than 160 people injured. The blast had enough energy to trip US Geological Survey seismographs as a magnitude 2.1 quake.
How did such a powerful explosion happen?
The plant in question, West Fertilizer Co., is said to have had some 54,000 pounds of anhydrous ammonia on-site, a key ingredient in making ammonium nitrate, which is widely used as fertilizer. It's also used in cold packs, as rocket fuel, and as an explosive.
The fire would have affected each compound in different ways, specialists say.
Typically, anhydrous ammonia, a gas, is stored in tanks with relief valves so that as hot weather heats the gas and it expands, the valves vent some of the gas to prevent it from bursting its tank, explains Matt Pearson, fertilizer containment and certification specialist with the Office of Indiana State Chemist & Seed Commissioner, based at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Ind.
The explosion could have occurred in part as heat from the fire caused the gas to expand far faster than relief valves could vent it. Direct ignition of the gas is unlikely, Mr. Pearson suggests, because the gas burns only at very high temperatures – about 1,200 degrees F.
Ammonium nitrate may be the more likely candidate in the explosion.
In small quantities, the white pellets won't detonate, notes Ronald Willey, a chemical engineering professor at Northeastern University in Boston. Many drugstore cold packs use the compound because, when water is also put in the packs, the mixture absorbs heat from its surroundings.
But the compound begins to decompose into nitrous oxide and water when heated to temperatures above 150 degrees F. – a process that itself releases heat. If temperatures rise to about 400 degrees F. or higher, as in a fire, decomposition can become explosive.
Indeed, the largest industrial accident in US history involved 2,300 tons of ammonium nitrate tucked in the hold of a cargo ship in Texas City in 1947. The ship was to deliver the fertilizer to Europe. A fire broke out onboard, and after about an hour of fruitless efforts to battle the blaze, the ammonium nitrate exploded.
The blast triggered more explosions and fires, including a blast on a nearby ship that also was carrying ammonium nitrate. The death toll has been estimated at 581 or more.
Shortly after the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon in 2001, a fertilizer factory in Toulouse, France, exploded. The blast involved between 200 and 300 tons of ammonium nitrate pellets. Some 31 people died and more than 2,400 were injured. The blast left an enormous crater – and a cleanup bill that reportedly reached 3.2 billion euros.
In the case of the explosion in the small community of West, the plant itself was destroyed, along with up to 75 homes, a middle school, and a nursing home in a four-block area nearby.
West Fertilizer Co. is bounded on the east by farmland. But to the west, a single set of railroad tracks is all that separated the facility from homes and the middle school.
Records from the US Environmental Protection Agency show that in 2006, the agency fined West Fertilizer Co. for having an inadequate plan to deal with risks at the site, according local press reports. The same year, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality issued a citation to the company for failing to apply for or qualify for a permit, after residents nearby complained about strong ammonia odors.
Following Wednesday's explosion, the US Chemical Safety Board and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives have sent investigators to determine a cause.

My experience with gloves has so far been the best. I have been working in the food industry as long as I can remember and I know that proper handling of foods is very important. The brand I used before did not really click with me. It was kind of uncomfortable to work and I always expect it to tear up anytime. I have been using these gloves for quite some time now and never did I have any worries. It's not also easily punctured. Most importantly, I didn't have allergies which I have been suffering before.

I have been a clinic assistant for a long time now. We have been recently using this product and the doctor I've been working with was highly impressed with it. Working with it didn't hinder our dexterity which is very vital in examinations. It was indeed flexible and comfortable to use, even when I wear it for a quite a long time. Other than that it was also easy to wear and take off -a nice feature for saving time. It's quite cheaper than other products too!

The gloves are good to be use all around. It is multipurpose, as a house maker I find these multipurpose gloves very useful in my everyday chores from food preparation to bathroom cleaning and many more. These gloves make my life easy and the same time enjoyable for I felt that my hands are secure in everything I do in the house. Another thing these gloves is easy to don and very comfortable and soft to wear. Furthermore, if to compare this brand form others with the same price range you will get more than you paid for.

These disposable gloves are the best gloves I have yet to use in my whole life. In our laboratories, I often worry about the chemicals that I used and the effects on me. But I have to worry less now because it is thicker and more durable than the other brands. Though not completely, it has greater resistance to wider array of chemicals compared to the usual gloves used in laboratories. I would recommend this glove to every user. In terms of quality and durability this glove is really the best glove available in the market.

In my career as Orthodontic, I have never encountered any glove that is comfortable, soft and sensitive. It serves just like other gloves of high quality but it has advantage those others gloves do not have. I did not even have problems in donning the gloves because it is easy to wear and does not roll back. In my kind of work, this kind of glove is perfect.

Being a warehouse manager for a long time, I'm an expert in gloves. I've been working with gloves on ever since I can remember. The gloves I use really last long, but there was one time I got duped. It was also a black nitrile so I had second thoughts with this one. But it turned out better than I expected. It was heavy duty indeed, perfect for the kind of job I have. I even tell my workers to use it. They did not have allergic reaction either, unlike when they are using other brands. What's more is that it has greater puncture resistance than the latex ones.

The backlash against advanced statistics in baseball by so-called "purists" can get tiresome, but there's no denying a few of the stereotypes about those dealing in the numbers game sometimes hold true. Here's a shot of Astros Director of Decision Sciences (seriously, that's his job title) Sig Mejdal from yesterday's broadcast, just as commentators cast off that old throwaway about the nerds eliminating the need to play the game on the field.

Latent Variable Mixture Modeling
Sandra A. Mitchell
posted on Thursday, March 22, 2007 - 4:50 pm
I attended your session in Baltimore last week at Hopkins, and learned immensely. Thank you for a great presentation. I am trying to find an example in the text that fits my analysis needs. I am trying to see if there are latent groups with differing symptom experiences in a sample of patients with advanced melanoma. The data are individual items from a symptom checklist, where various symptoms are listed, and the respondent is asked to indicate the severity of the symptom on a scale of 0-4. 0 is if they don't have the symptom, and 4 is the worst severity possible. As you might expect, there are a preponderance of zeros in this data set, and so I have been looking at whether a 2 part model is the right approach. I can find some examples of a 2 part model for longitudinal data but I am hoping you can point me to a paper or examples in your text of this approach for a cross-sectional analysis. Thank you in advance for your help. Sandra

Thanks for the kind words.
We are finishing up a paper on 2-part factor analysis and the steps to do this, so that's a cross-sectional analysis that might be helpful. It will be posted shortly.
However, unless you have a strong reason to use 2-part in this example, I think perhaps it more straightforward to treat your outcome as (ordered) categorical. The LCA approach for this is just like for binary outcomes.
2-part is more suitable when you have a more continuous tail for the non-zero part - you have only the categories 1, 2, 3, 4. Also, for 2-part you might want to have a hypothesis that the choice of being in zero vs not zero has different antecedents than the non-zero values.
If you treat your outcome as categorical you may want consider the need to collapse the 2 highest categories to not have too few observations there.
