Comments about Summer Infant Complete Coverage Color Baby Video Monitor Set:
I purchased this product to monitor my children who sleep on a different floor of our house than my husband and I. It has far exceeded our expectations. The camera view is clear even in the dark! It is nice that the camera and the monitors are all able to be plugged in, and that the hand held monitor is portable. This system is worth the money!
Love this unit so much

About Me Grandparent
Bought this unit with a second camera for my first grandchild. Bought it again for my other daughter and just bought it again for a friend who is expecting. Love the large screen and great reception and night vision. So much peace of mind when you can see your little one instead of just hearing them. Also fun to watch them play in their crib before and after nap time.

Poor Video and Audio Quality
By kch
from Des Moines, IA
We thought this product would be great, low cost portable video and audio. But the audio quality was horrible and picked up and broadcasted every little noise. Infrared video was like looking at an Ultrasound.[...]

Love it!!!
By laura
from Michigan
As the mother of four children I love this baby monitor, it has great picture quality and we have yet to experience any interference. I love having the big monitor but also having the smaller portable one. What an improvement from my last monitor.
Great video monitor
By A's Mommy
from Chicago, IL
About Me First Time Parent
We use this monitor for all naps and night time sleeping. The hand held monitor piece is great for during the day and we love the large monitor for nighttime when we don't want to put on our glasses to look closely at the monitor. We also take the video camera and hand held monitor on vacations with us as they are movable and don't take up much room in the suitcase. The monitor occasionally crosses signals with other pieces of technology in our house (ie cell phones) and will get a little fuzzy or scratchy noise. But does have an A and B channel. I wish the hand held was a little bit smaller like the other monitors. Especially when the screen on it is not huge. The speaker takes up the most room! It is sort of like the Zach Morris cell phone from back in the day, but not quite that large! Its great for setting on the counter.

By Ellen Thompson/Havre Daily firstname.lastname@example.com
Two women have reported seeing a mountain lion near the water tower on the east side of Havre.
It's the second possible sighting of a mountain lion in town in four months.
The Rev. Catherine Card said she saw one behind her house on the 800 block of Seventh Street three weeks ago. Four months ago, residents on Saddle Butte Drive reported seeing a mountain lion near their home.
Card said she and a friend were pulling into Card's driveway one afternoon when the two saw the animal on a hill facing the back of Card's home.
At first Card thought it was a feral cat, but the animal she was looking at was much larger than a cat, she said. It was tawny colored, long, with a long thick tail.
Card went to her porch overlooking the hill and called out to the animal.
"I was trying to get a better look at it and see what it would do," Card said. "It looked at me and then it walked on and walked over the hill."
Card said the animal twitched its tail before it walked away.
She said she was somewhat concerned for her safety and that of her dogs, but the animal seemed unconcerned. "It seemed like maybe it was used to wandering in populated areas," Card said. "If I had been a mountain lion not used to being around people, I would have taken off."
Card reported the sighting to police.
"It's awesome to see something like that in your back yard. I just was fascinated by it," she said.
The Rev. Vicki Maly, a pastor at American Lutheran Church in Chinook, was visiting Card that afternoon and was the first to see the animal.
"I looked up at the hill and saw this cat-like creature and it blended right into the hill," she said. "I thought, at first, 'Is that just a huge cat on steroids?' and then I thought, 'This has got to be bigger.'"
Maly said she was only able to watch the cat for 10 or 15 seconds before it walked out of sight, but she thinks it was a mountain lion, even after learning that one of Card's neighbors owns a large dog.
"It had a catlike shape and a catlike way of walking," she said.
Afterward, "I was just wondering if I saw what I really saw," she said.
Montana Department of Fish, Wildlife and Parks game warden Shane Reno said today his office has not had any reports of mountain lion sightings in town, though it did receive an inquiry 10 days ago from a resident near the Beaver Creek Golf Course who was looking for an explanation for his horses' peculiar behavior.
As to a sighting in town: "It could be. They're curious critters," Reno said.
Mountain lions generally follow a circuit through their territory, Reno said, but they by no means stick to it.
"They're like people, they all are different," he said. "They can have upward of a 100-mile path or they can live in a smaller area."

Investigation Into Towson Accident Continues
No charges have been filed in the Monday morning crash that injured three, including Patch Local Editor Tyler Waldman.
UPDATED (12:16 p.m.)—Police continue to investigate the Monday morning accident that injured three people including a Patch local editor.
Tyler Waldman, 24, remains in critical condition at Shock Trauma, according to Cindy Rivers, a hospital spokeswoman.
Details surrounding the accident remain unclear.
Early investigation shows that a Honda Civic was traveling on Goucher Boulevard through the intersection of E. Joppa Road, Baltimore County police said in a statement. A Ford Mustang, traveling eastbound on East Joppa Road, struck the Civic, according to a police statement Monday.
The identity of the woman driving the Mustang and her passenger have not been released. Both were taken to Sinai Hospital Monday. The driver suffered minor injuries and treated and released from the hospital. Information on the passenger was not immediately available, according to Julia Hargrove, a police department spokeswoman.
The cause of the crash has not been determined and no charges have been filed as the investigation continues, Hargrove said.

OMG, look at the condition of the Honda Civic! Praying for you Tyler!
5:04 pm on Tuesday, November 27, 2012
Tyler, Shock Trauma is fantastic, you are in good hands. Prayers are with you for a quick recovery. We want you back at the Essex Patch!
12:54 pm on Wednesday, November 28, 2012
Hope you get well Tyler and i will pray for you and will ask my pastor to mention you during this Sunday service. Im sure all the other people who say they will pray for you will probably not because i bet they don't even go to church. If you don't go to church then god will not listen to your prayers. Just like if you don't listen to your parents, why should they listen to you. Thank you daddy and i know you will come through for Tyler if its in your plan.

Good luck, Tyler! My thoughts are with you for a full and speedy recovery.

1:57 pm on Wednesday, November 28, 2012
What a strange looking crash. It's hard to tell which car is which, but I assume the Civic is the light blue one in the grass that is now a convertible? The mustang has heavy damage to the front, but the front windshield doesn't even appear to be cracked. The front windshield on the civic is completely gone along with the entire roof as if the mustang ran over the civic, literally. Being at an intersection, someone probably ran a red light. Hope Tyler is alright, whoever he is. Must have been some scary S.
2:00 pm on Wednesday, November 28, 2012
Probably cut the roof off to extract him from the vehicle.

The E. coli T7 S30 Extract System for Circular DNA simplifies transcription/translation of DNA sequences cloned in plasmid or lambda vectors containing a T7 promoter by providing an extract that contains T7 RNA polymerase for transcription and all necessary components for translation. The investigator supplies only cloned DNA containing a T7 promoter and a ribosome binding site. The T7 S30 Extract for Circular DNA is prepared by modifications of the method described by Zubay from an E. coli strain B deficient in OmpT endoproteinase and lon protease activity. This results in greater stability of expressed proteins that would otherwise be degraded by proteases if expressed in vivo.

Before I begin, I would like to give some background information about myself. I graduated from Cedar Grove High School in 2011 and I am currently a sophomore studying Communication at Marist College. I played competitive sports throughout high school and continued to stay active at college, participating in the many intramurals Marist has to offer.
Two weeks ago, my intramural basketball team had our second game of the Spring Semester season. Little did I know before the game that it would be my last basketball game for quite awhile. My team likes to run a high paced offense with a lot of fast breaking and quick offensive possessions.
We were in the groove and were beating our opponent up and down the court for easy layups. Our power forward secured a rebound and pushed the ball out to me on the right wing to start a fast break. He led me quite a bit but I secured the ball and started to push it up the court. I realized I only had one man to beat and I already had a step on him. As I turned the corner to head in for a layup, the defender bumped me. It was not a dirty play by any means, just a body foul that was a smart play to stop the easy two points. However, it was not an ordinary foul where I would get back up, shake it off, and resume play.
People who have torn their ACL say that they heard a pop when the incident happened. I did not hear a pop, but my right knee buckled and I went down in pain. My first three thoughts as I hit the ground were: I had to have torn my ACL, this is the most painul experience of my entire life, and I hope this doesn't ruin my Valentine's Day plans with my girlfriend (Incident occured on February 13th). I'm also glad my mother and sister weren't there to hear the words I rattled off for the next 30 seconds.
I was in pain for about two minutes and then I remember my knee just turning numb. You could not have paid me to straighten or put any kind of pressure on my right leg.
I then remember the referee coming over and asking if I needed a substitute. I must have held my composure together to some degree for him to have to ask that, but I just chuckled and said, "Bro I'm going to the *bleeping* hospital."
After an ER visit, a follow up with the local Orthopedics' office, and an MRI, it was confirmed that I tore my ACL along with a torn Medial Meniscus and a possible fracture of the Tibial Plateau.
I have decided to blog about my experience leading up to the surgery and the rigorous 6-9 month rehabilitation following, to both keep myself entertained and to give information to people who might be going through this now with me, or athletes who might experience this injury later on and want to know what they are about to go through.
To be continued...

Stephen, we were so sorry to hear about your injury and upcoming surgery. Bummer...Catherine can commiserate with you on this one - she also tore her ACL and Meniscus. She had surgery right after graduation, with the goal of walking down the aisle at Bryce's wedding (2 months later) without a brace - and she did. We'll be praying for you and getting your updates on the blog.

" | If it were a choice, it wouldn't be called a curse. Werewolves will attack humans, but instinct and centuries of rivalry have hardwired them to hunt their prey of choice... vampires. | " |
— Vanessa Monroe on werewolves
Werewolves (also called Lycanthropes and Loup Garou) are a near-extinct supernatural species of individuals which unwillingly transform into fearsome, and extremely hostile wolves during full moons. Even in their human form, all werewolves do possess superhuman physical prowess. Werewolves are the most dangerous enemies of vampires because a bite from a werewolf can kill a vampire. Werewolves are designed to kill vampires on sight in their wolf form. Though they still hunt human prey when there are no vampires to kill.
Contents |
Not much is known about the history of werewolves except that they existed before vampires were created over 1,000 years ago. Who created them, how they were created, when exactly they were created and the reason for their creation is currently unknown but since they call their supernatural condition a curse, it may very well be a magical curse placed on the original members of their species by witches. However, if this is the case, it has yet to be proven. Werewolves actively populated the New World during the early Middle Ages as Viking invasions began in Europe. Most, if not all, of the land's inhabitants were werewolves and they lived along side one another in villages. They also lived alongside humans and, to protect their loved ones, they made sure that they had access to natural means of protection for them. One of the most notable locations of a werewolf village was the location of Mystic Falls. Beneath the area was a series of tunnels that provided protection for the humans when the werewolves turned on the full moon. One clear rule of the village was that the humans were forbidden from being with the wolves when they turned.
A notable event in the history of the werewolves comes with the arrival of inhabitants of the 'Old World' where a plague had been devastating the population. The newcomers included Mikael, his wife Esther, and Esther's witch mentor and friend, Ayana. Having lost their child in Europe, Mikael and Esther wanted to be able to raise a family free from illness and Ayana had led them to the New World where they could live in peace. The villagers accepted the new family and they became an integral part of of the village life with Ayana become the local healer and contact with the spirits. Mikael and Esther finally built a family, giving birth to five sons and a daughter: Elijah, Finn, Niklaus, Kol, Rebekah and Henrik. However, when Henrik and Niklaus broke the rule one night and went to see the wolves turn, Henrik was killed by the turned wolves. Determined to not lose anymore family but not wanting to run anymore, Mikael and Esther used a forbidden ritual to turn their children and Mikael himself into indestructible beings with stronger and more attuned reflexes than the werewolves, a race that would later be know as the vampires. However, the newly-turned family's lust for blood led them to shatter the peace of their village, feeding on the innocent inhabitants of the town. When Niklaus made his first human kill, Esther's darkest secret came to light: Niklaus was not Mikael's son but the son of one of the werewolf villagers. Killing a human activated his werewolf gene and he turned into a vampire/werewolf hybrid. Furious at his wife's betrayal, Mikael slaughtered her lover and half of the remaining villagers, igniting the war that had since lasted between vampires and werewolves.
After the slaughter and their mother's death at Niklaus hands, the Original family scattered and begun traveling the Old and New Worlds, turning other people into vampires. The war between vampires and werewolves came to a head when vampires discovered that a bite from a werewolf could kill them, and therefore set about massacring the entire werewolf race. The werewolves were driven to near-extinction by the massacres and later turned vampires even began to believe that werewolves were a mere myth.
In reality, werewolves had survived and reorganized themselves into packs to help one another evade the vampires and also help each other through their very painful transformations.
Werewolf Genocide
The Werewolf Genocide was a campaign launched by the vampires to eradicate the werewolves. This campaign originated from the fact that a werewolf's bite is fatal to vampires. Very few werewolves escaped from this purge and the remaining ones formed packs to survive such as the pack formed by Jules, Brady and Mason Lockwood. The genocide happened a long time before modern times and the werewolves that survived were so few that even a majority of vampires believed them to be a mere legend.
Psychological characteristics
Werewolves are known to be aggressive, strong and fast even in human form. Tyler Lockwood often had trouble controlling his temper. Those with the werewolf curse still latent can exhibit some supernatural traits which can be triggered by aggression, along with unusual physical strength for the person's given size and age but they cannot fully transform and they also black out when they go blind with rage for no reason. Also werewolves have a higher body temperature than humans. When Tyler first activates his curse he states that his skin feels as if it's on fire. With the curse activated their eyes turn yellow (the eyes of a wolf) while enraged, as Mason's eyes did when he stopped the fight between Tyler and Carter (Brave New World). Activating the curse is also painful.
While some werewolves prefer to keep to themselves and keep their beastly natures hidden, most seem to aggregate themselves into packs and residing in areas isolated from general human society.
In 1864, George Lockwood attacked several humans and killed them, leaving horrific wounds on the corpses, (essentially ripping them apart) much worse than some vampires would have. This is evident when Henry tells Katherine that the wounds "worse than anything he had ever seen before." Despite this, with the cooperation of Katherine Pierce, who was running from The Originals, George was able to convince the Mystic Falls town council that vampires were responsible which lead to their round up. It is unknown if George continued his attacks there or elsewhere.
Like normal people, werewolves can eat normal food if they choose to. However, because they turn into ferocious beasts during the full moon, they are flesh eating creatures. When they feed, it is absorbed throughout the body and they need to consume organs or body parts, but they do not have to feed in order to prolong their existence like Vampires. There is no known side effects in the absence of devouring victims in werewolf form. It seems that most werewolves do not get to feed because of the fact that most tend to lock themselves up during the full moon, or that before or after they make a kill, they're scared off before they get to chance to truly feed. Werewolves have not been seen to attack each other in human or lupine form, but have been known to hunt both human and vampire prey while transformed under the full moon. Jules, for example, was seen to be horrified when she woke up to find she'd slaughtered a group of campers after attacking Rose. Werewolves seem to have an urge to attack vampires regardless of what form they are in, as witnessed in The Hybrid when a werewolf instinctively attacks the vampire Damon Salvatore instead of pursuing its first choice, Elena Gilbert, and when Ray (a newly turned hybrid) instinctively attacked Damon on sight.
Code Of Loyalty
Werewolves are very similar to witches when it comes to their own kind. Unlike the vampires, werewolves are more sworn to loyalty and may bond with other werewolves they meet. They work with each other as sort of an extended family. The bond of loyalty between werewolves is strangely strong, while changed under full moons, the only things they do not attack are other werewolves (triggered curse or not). This code does seem to extend to Klaus' hybrids too. It's possible that the only reason why Klaus' hybrids are loyal, is because of their werewolf heritage. Though vampires have been known to "Sire" too, but it's rare.
Werewolves in their wolf form have the appearances of an ordinary wolf, but with glowing yellow eyes and a much larger and brute-like appearance. When there is the full moon after sunset they will transform into a canine form, looking very much like a timber-wolf, although larger. They can also be distinguished from regular wolves by their displays of supernatural strength, speed, and overall size. The fur color of wolf forms differs from one to the other (e.g., Tyler Lockwood's fur color is dark brown, Mason Lockwood's is white and grey, Jules is light brown and a hints of white. Werewolves appear the same as any other human the rest of the month, apart from the full moon.Triggering The Werewolf Gene
A werewolf has to kill a human in order to trigger their werewolf gene in order to activate their powers. It also does not matter if the curse was activated accidentally, or it was intentional. After the gene is triggered their eyes will turn yellow and their powers will activate instantly. A Werewolf who has yet to trigger his or her curse will only exhibit increased aggression and overwhelming fits of rage during nights of the full moon.Werewolf Transformation
A werewolf will only transform in to a wolf under a full moon. The first transformation is quite slow and the person is subjected to at least five hours of intense pain before transforming. After the first transformation it will get faster but still hurt. During the transformation, the body of the person is twisted in an unnatural manner as bones reshape and shift to form a wolf skeleton, causing the person immense pain. Later the person grows excessive body hair and becomes feral and huge eyes that glow yellow and fangs, then in minutes the werewolf will become a wolf. A werewolf returns to their human form in after a few hours. After the first transformation the werewolf will experience muscle aches. Older werewolves can control themselves to some extent on the night of the full moon.
Powers and Abilities
- Super Strength - Werewolves are much stronger than any human. They are not as strong as a vampire whilst in human form but when it is a full moon they are more powerful than Non-Original Vampires. Rose, a 560 year-old- vampire was knocked down and over-powered by the fully transformed werewolf Jules. Another case was when Damon Salvatore, a 172 vampire could barely hold off the transforming newborn werewolf, Tyler Lockwood.
- Super Speed - Werewolves are extremely faster than any human and non-Original vampire. Werewolves can use this ability in either Human or wolf form. Under the full moon, Werewolves can use their speed in wolf form to even swiftly chase down Vampires.
- Super Agility - Werewolves possess superhuman agility. They can move, jump, climb, and run incredibly fast without difficulty or exhaustion.
- Super Durability - Werewolves can take far more trauma than Humans can without much discomfort or injury. They can also exert themselves without much tire.
- Healing Factor - Werewolves possess superhuman regenerative abilities, meaning if ever injured, their bodies will heal near- instantaneously. Werewolves have also been said to heal exactly as fast as vampires. Even in human form.
- Super Senses - Werewolves have the extremely keen senses of smell, sight, taste, and hearing inherent in all canines. With this, Tyler was able to sense Vervain placed in coffee, which would otherwise be impossible since the flavor is usually hidden by the coffee.
- Werewolf Bite - The bite of a Werewolf is extremely lethal to normal Vampires but not to an Original.(reallly a vampire has never been shown to actually be killed by the bite, so far all vampires bitten have been shown killed by other vampires)
- Anger - When a Werewolf is furious, their anger increase all their powers and abilities for a short period of time, as well as can have an advantage over a Vampire.
- Full Moon - Werewolves' powers and abilities are enhanced and are at their peak during a full moon.
- Shapeshifting - During a full moon, they will unwillingly turn into wolves.
- Lie Detection- Werewolves are able to sense if you're lying or not.
- Broken Neck: By breaking a werewolf's neck, it results in instant death.
- Wolfsbane - When ingested, wolfsbane causes a werewolf to become severely weak and feverish. Also, If a werewolf's skin is exposed to wolfsbane, it will result in burning them.
- Gilbert Device - Invented by Jonathan Gilbert (Enchanted by Emily Bennett), the Device was a weapon designed to emit a high-frequency noise that could only be heard by vampires and werewolves.
- Decapitation - If the head of a werewolf is dismembered, it results in death.
- Magic - Witches are able to curse and inflict supernaturals aneurysms that cause the blood vessels of werewolves to explode.
- Heart Extraction - If a werewolves' heart is ripped out, it will cause instant death.
- Silver- They are not weakened by or allergic to silver, as Mason explained after Damon stabbed him with a silver knife. Mason said that the myth was probably started by werewolves. Its the opposite effect however and they just heal from it. That's why Klaus can't be killed by the white oak daggers.
- Wolfsbane- Several myths have spanned around the herb and its relation and effects upon Werewolves. Some of which being that Wolfsbane supposedly either causes or cures Lycantrophy.
Appearances in Wolf Form
- Bad Moon Rising
- By The Light of the Moon
- The Last Day
- The Sun Also Rises
- The Hybrid
- The Ties That Bind
- After School Special
- It's unclear why the werewolf bite is lethal to a vampire. However, since in the natural world species that are design to hunt down a specific creature as a prey are supposed to evolve with that purpose in mind, it might be some kind of adaptation on part of the werewolves in order to survive after the vampires began the werewolf genocide. Another theory is that a witch might have gave the ability to the species as a whole but neither theory has been proven.
- Werewolves are the antithesis to Vampires.
- Hayley is currently the only werewolf in the TV series for now.
- When turned into hybrids, werewolves are still more wolf than vampire.
- Mason Lockwood was the first full-blooded werewolf seen on the show and the first werewolf seen in wolf form.
- Jules was the first female werewolf on the show.
- According to Klaus, werewolves tend to travel in packs.
- Werewolves are an older species than vampires, as Klaus' father and other members of the Original family's village were werewolves before The Originals turned into vampires.
- In the books, The Original Pack, Tyler Smallwood, Caroline Forbes, Caroline's unborn twin children and Jacob Smallwood were the only werewolves.
- In the series, it was unknown that Lockwoods have werewolf gene until Bad Moon Rising. But it was hinted in some episodes.
- First was The Turning Point. After the scene Tyler hit Jeremy, he asked him "What is your problem, man?" when a full moon can be seen in the sky, explaining his aggressive behaviors.
- It was also hinted in Founder's Day. When John activated the device that would incapacitate vampires, Tyler was also able to hear the noise and he lost the control of the car because of the painful noise that the device caused.
- According to an interview, the werewolf transformation was designed to be a dance for actors.
- The transformations of Mason, Jules, and Tyler are the only ones shown in the TV series.
- It seems that werewolf families share the same birth mark.
- Nobody has been shown to die from a wolf bite yet.
Werewolf Genocide Trivia
- A Werewolf Genocide occurred in The Twilight Saga as well. The werewolves, known as the Children of the Moon, were also driven to near-extinction by vampires who saw them as a threat.
- Vanessa Monroe mentions that the werewolves are almost extinct, according to the legends in Bad Moon Rising. Katherine Pierce confirms her words when she has a conversation with Stefan in Memory Lane.
- Despite the fact that werewolves are supposedly almost extinct, they seem to have grown in numbers over the centuries. This is proved by the fact that Klaus has created multiple hybrids and given that the werewolf gene can lay dormant for generations. It's impossible to say for certain if they are as endangered as the show states.

Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2004 Brunello di Montalcino is a pretty, fragrant wine. Initially rather reticent, this medium-bodied Brunello needs some aeration for its perfumed red cherry fruit to open up in the glass. The wine offers good intensity and depth, but needs at least a few years in bottle for the tannins to..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "What a dreamy nose of crushed berries and dried flowers. Perfumes too. Then changes to Indian spices and dark fruits. Full bodied, with super well integrated tannins and a classy, long finish. So well integrated. Just a joy to taste. Better in 2013."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Capanna's offering in 2007 is extremely bold, dark and opulent. Loads of aromatic momentum in the form of blackberry, cherry liqueur, spice, leather, tobacco, rum cake, cinnamon, vanilla bean and bitter chocolate characterize the bouquet. The wine also shows a soft, ripe, generous texture, yet..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "A floral and perfumed nose, with raspberries and blackberries. Full-bodied, with racy tannins and a dense yet refined palate. A little tight still. Give it a little more bottle age. Best after 2010. 1,665 cases made." JS
Cellar/Tasting Notes Shows dried raspberry and cinnamon on the nose. Full-bodied, with an impressive density of fruit and round tannins. Long and flavorful. Just starting to open up. Powerful and rich.
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Raspberry, cherry, mineral and spice flavors highlight this elegant, vibrant red. The pure fruit is offset by a refined structure and equally fine, athletic tannins. A sense of energy drives the long, mineral-tinged finish. A wine of finesse and power."
Cellar/Tasting Notes Gorgeous aromatic nose that ranges from grapes to caramel; rich, firm, sweet yet with precise acidity, somewhere between a great Madeira and an Australian super tawny, yet unlike anything else. Absolutely spectacular, one of a kind, in a word, divine.
Cellar/Tasting Notes The 2009 Tignanello is quite beautiful. Cedar, graphite, sweet herbs, licorice and leather add complexity to a core of highly expressive red fruits. The 2009 impresses for its energy, drive and focus There is a silkiness and polish that is reminiscent of the 2004. Tignanello is 75% Sangiovese, 20%..
Cellar/Tasting Notes An elegant Brunello from one of Italy's most prestigious wine regions.

Yesterday, Art Center President Lorne Buchman and the Faculty Council announced the recipients of this year's Samsung Faculty Enrichment Grant awards: Dewey Ambrosino, Adele Bass, Marcie Begleiter, Gabrielle Jennings, David Luce and Everard Williams, Jr.
In his announcment, Buchman said the reviewing panel of jurors were particularly impressed by the scholarly nature of the proposals and the spirit of creative inquiry that inspired them. The proposals ranged from a collaborative art installation in Vietnam exploring light and sound phenomena to a series of on-site interviews with family and colleagues who knew the German-born 20th-century American artist Eva Hesse.
"The research projects submitted by these six individuals are noteworthy and wide-ranging and will surely benefit the entire Art Center community," said Buchman.

About Me Casual User
Comments about Henderson Thermoprene 7mm Men's Jumpsuit (Back Zip):
I live in San Diego and although I am an avid diver, was not fond of the cold water most of the year. I finally broke down and bought a heavy wetsuit to see if I could enjoy diving here...this suit surprised me in every way. It was not the hassle to get on and off that I associated with heavy suites...it is no harder to get into than my 3 mil I normally use in warm water. And it kept me so WARM! My husband got one too and feels the same way. If you are looking for a comfortable suit that does not bind and is easy to wear, this is the suit! Fits great and seems to be true to size.

Bulky on surface but comfortable at depth
Great price on a comfortable suit
By ed
from South Beloit, Illinois
At 45 feet the water temperature was 51 degrees F and I was very comfortable. It slipped on easy when dry, taking it off was easy. Putting the suit back on when wet was a little more difficult. There was a slight trickle of water down the spine under the zipper but that cold shock went away rapidly once in the water. A great suit for the price.

7. | sizzurp | ||
A sound you make when you have really bad acid reflux. Aw man, I should have not have had that pizza this late. *sizzurp*
sizzurp images | |||
1. | sizzurp | ||
The original formula:
Promethazine w/Codeine syrup Any fruit flavored soda A jolly rancher Put it all in a styrofoam cup and enjoy. The codeine is mainly responsible for the euphoria felt after drinking sizzurp. Promethazine causes motor skill impairment, lethargy, and extreme drowsiness. If it doesn't have promethazine, it ain't real sizzurp. DXM is not a component of sizzurp, although it may produce vaguely similar effects to the above recipe in doses ranging from 150 - 250 mg. I drank a deuce (2 oz.) of sizzurp and got straight folded.
2. | sizzurp | ||
Sizzurp is the actual cough syrup ingredient used to create what is known as "Lean". It can be sold illegally or be attained with a prescription. To create Lean, a popular drink created in Houston Texas, you require the following for the original formula:
-Promethazine w/Codeine VC <- Sizzurp (active ingredient) -Original Sprite Soda <- Mixing ingredient (although different flavors of sprite are now used, such as sprite remix) -Jolly rancher candy <- Flavor additive Put it all in a styrofoam cup and enjoy. The codeine is mainly responsible for the euphoric feeling after drinking lean. Promethazine causes motor skill impairment, lethargy, extreme drowsiness, as well as a disassociative feeling from all other parts of the body, specifically the stomach and digestive system. If it doesn't have promethazine w/ Codeine, it isn't real sizzurp. Sizzurp is normally the color purple, although there are different colored sizzurps with different doses of codeine, that all produce the same effect but are NOT of the same strength and potency of the original purple colored sizzurp. Following these guidelines, the TRUE sizzurp is of the color purple. The true sizzurp (when mixed with the ingredients listed), does not contain ANY form of alcohol, crushed pills, or other liquids in general. DXM is not a component of sizzurp, although it may produce vaguely similar effects to the above recipe in doses ranging from 150 - 250 mg. DXM is also an upper, codeine is a downer. DX... |
3. | Sizzurp | ||
The first definition already listed is accurate as to the meaning and general composition: -Promethazine -Codeine syrup -Any clear soda (often fruit flavored) -One or more Jolly Ranchers for flavor There are many variations and differing usage, but in order to be considered true and unadulterated sizzurp, the above ingredients are necessary. The likely etymology is from the word "syrup", pronounced with a Southern accent like "surrup", or just "surp" when spoken loosely. Ebonified with "-izz" (like hizzouse to mean house), forms "sizzurp". Sippin' on sizzurp
4. | sizzurp | ||
Basically the better version of alcohol, also known as purple drank (yes drank), lean' and texas tea. You get some sprite or mountain dew then you get some jolly ranchers crush em' up throw em' in your choice of clear soda then you need some cough syrup, none of that DXM bullshit unless your looking to get spacy and trippy but that's not what sizzurps about. The cough syrup has to contain codeine w/ promethazine like the original formula or tussinex which is liquid hydrocodone with an antihistamine and is better than codeine. Some formula's below: more...
Original: Codeine w/ Promethazine cough syrup Clear sprite soda Jolly ranchers Retarded dumb-ass formula: Over the counter DXM syrup vodka red-bull Modern and enhanced version: Tussinex (liq. Hydrocodone suspension 12hour release) Mountain dew/any sprite flavor Jolly ranchers if so desired. The rolls royce of sizzurp: OxyFast (liq. Oxycodone suspension) Mountain dew Jolly ranchers Benadryl/Promethazine Just like good ol' momma's recipe's there exist diversity amonst formulations. |
5. | sizzurp | ||
A drink that contains promethazine and codeine syrup, mixed with sprite and sometimes jolly ranchers. Causes a slow trip. I'm sippin on sizzurp
Promethazine Codiene Mix with
Smirnoff Ice Jolly Ranchers or Shark Gummy Worms Fucks you up but will give you the biggest kottonmouth. You got that sizzurp tonight

Craggy grizzled faces shot in black and white. Paul Harvey extolling the old-fashioned virtues of hard work and self-reliance that so exemplifies the way we see ourselves. What's not to like about the Dodge farmers commercial that aired during the Super Bowl?
Well, plenty, actually. And many thanks to the brilliant Rachel Laudan for analyzing them so nicely. In her essay -- "God Made a Farmer. Oh Really?" -- Laudan argues that though that commercial made us all feel really good, it actually does farming a disservice by repeating images stuck in the past.
According to the Department of Agriculture's 2007 Census of Agriculture, today's farmers are getting pretty old -- the average age is 57 -- and they may well be grizzled; fewer than half earn enough from farming to cover expenses (so much for that shiny new pick-em-up truck!).
But as Laudan points out, here's the rest of the story:
"The last farmer in the video is driving what appears to be a 9R John Deere tractor. That comes in at about $250,000-$380,000. If his land is good quality cropland in the Middle West, it's likely to be about $5,000 an acre. If he has a dairy, the family has been using artificial insemination for at least 50 years, tracking milk production with minute care.
"He uses computer software to manage the farm. He has a global positioning system to help him manage crops. He follows the agricultural press (especially prices) carefully and goes on regular farm visits to see what new tricks he can learn.
"He's a business man. He has to stay on top of the market. He has a large capital investment, a big loan, and he worries about whether he can send his kid to college. And if he can't, well then there's no future as a farmer."
This should not in any way diminish our sympathy for the farmer, but only remind us of the importance of viewing him in a contemporary context. We may love the image of a charming rustic, but today's reality is that making enough money to hold on to his land takes a lot more than that.
Today's farmer may well fix his equipment with baling wire and elbow grease, but then he goes online to find out how almond sales are going in India.

1. | Liquid Courage | ||
The title of any alcohalic beverage that enables you to approach and conversate with people more freely. "after downing some of that Liquid Courage, man I was on point with them hoes.
2. | liquid courage | ||
Noun. Used when explaining alcohol as a catalyst for bravery, particularly in a party or public setting. Best used in conjuction with moments involving violence or sexual aquisition. Yup, James is full of the liquid courage so hopefully he'll get laid or else he'll end up bashing someone's face in.
3. | liquid courage | ||
Any alcoholic beverage that turns a person mean, brave or excited.
Named for the instant burst of courage (and often stupidity) that comes from drinking it. Before I stomp a mudhole in this dude's ass, I'm gonna need some liquid courage.
4. | liquid courage | ||
A nickname for Alcoholic drinks. It is so named because alcoholic drinks seem to have a fortitude-enhancing effect, allowing you to talk to people you wouldn't otherwise talk to, and not care about things you ordinarily would. When my ex invited her boyfriend to live with us, I was distraught. However, after a few doses of liquid courage, I could not have cared less.
5. | liquid courage | ||
Something that makes a person who drinks beer/alchohol get couragous enough to talk some crazy ass cocky bullshit to someone when they dont have the balls to say it when their not drinking. As soon as Lissa takes a sip of her first beer, the liquid courage starts to come out" "Bitch...put down that liquid courage and talk that shit to me when your not drinking.
6. | liquid courage | ||
Thats when someone who has had a little too much to drink thinks hes a badass, no matter how big or small he is. Adam got some liquid courage up and tried to step up, but I whipped his ass.
7. | Liquid Courage | ||
A alcoholic drink that is mixed:
It is 1/2-3/4's a glass of Long Island mix, then you add red bull, and then a few splashes of cranberry juice. Mixed properly, and it will get you drunk so quickly, and you don't ever even feel it coming on. Man, I drank only 4 or 5 Liquid Courages last night, and I'm still feeling it this morning.
I failed the breathalyzer after only one of those Liquid Courage drinks. |

The other day China presented a new deal to its 538 million Internet users: Disclose your identities to your service providers, and we'll protect your privacy from everyone else.
Acceptance is not voluntary — rather, it's law. But that isn't stopping China's editorialists, bloggers and microbloggers from openly contemplating a serious question: Can China's raucous, muckraking Internet culture survive if the anonymous microbloggers who enervate it are forced to disclose their identities to the often state-owned entities that allow them to surf in the first place?
For the Communist Party-run news outlets that make it their business to propagandize in favor of government policy, the answer is an enthusiastic yes. In the weeks and days before the law was revealed to the public, People's Daily, the self- declared mouthpiece of the Party ran several editorials that — in retrospect — were designed to lay the groundwork for restrictive Internet legislation. Of these, perhaps the most notable was published on Christmas Eve, under a pseudonymous byline. It argued:
"Without wings, the bird of freedom cannot fly high. Without rule of law, a free internet cannot go far .. . Cleaning up the online world demands the self-discipline of web users, but even more it demands the interventionist discipline of rule of law. Only by putting the "binds" of rule of law on the internet . . . can we possibly restrain irresponsible rumors, restrain the leakage of personal information, and make the internet clean again."
The binds that China's lawgivers have in mind are several, including provisions restricting and penalizing spammers, fraudsters and online marketers. But the provision at the heart of the new law targets the average Internet user most directly. Under it, internet service providers will be required to verify the identities of new subscribers (subscribers will be allowed to maintain online pseudonyms) before service can be activated.
For most users, this won't be much of an inconvenience or change (540 million people are already online in China). But the cumulative effect of this provision, and an earlier March 2012 rule that China's rollicking microblogs verify the actual identities of their millions of oft-anonymous users have left many of China's netizens nervous. (Even though that earlier rule has been barely and badly enforced.)
Anonymity, after all, is one of the reasons that China's microblogs have become the nation's de facto town square, providing an unprecedented platform for discussions about politics and public affairs. At the same time, they've provided cover for a wave of amateur muckrakers to uncover, tweet about and re-tweet alleged corruption and other misdeeds among Chinese officialdom (often with the approval of Party-run media and some government officials). Lift the veil of anonymity so that Internet service providers and their regulators know who is doing the anti-corruption tweeting, and the anti-corruption tweeters will go silent, the argument goes.
"After the internet real-name registration comes into effect, online anti-corruption efforts will be a thing of the past," tweeted Duan Wanjin, a lawyer in Xian, via the Sina Weibo microblog on Saturday night. "In the future, if citizens want to report wrongdoers online, they'll have to handle themselves like suicide bombers, dying but succeeding for a righteous cause."
Neither People's Daily or other Party-run newspapers deny a state interest in the "real name" data collected by the service providers. Rather they shift the terms of the argument and offer the Orwellian argument that by disclosing their identities, China's netizens are actually enhancing their privacy. For example, the nationalist, English-language edition of the Global Times ran a Saturday editorial in support of the law, noting:
"It regulates for the first time that the State should protect online information that bears someone's personal identity and relates to privacy, along with punitive measures for violations." Continued...
In other words, the government can't be expected to protect your privacy if it doesn't know who you are. So tell us who you are.
For now, online Chinese reaction to the requirement has been decidedly muted, especially compared with the panicked reaction that real-name registration for microblogs produced in March 2012. It's possible that many netizens, having seen the lax enforcement of the microblogging requirements, are assuming that this latest step will wither as well. Or, just as likely, the fact that the new law only applies to new accounts means that most current Chinese microbloggers won't be affected by it, anyway. And then there's the holidays: China may not be a Christian nation, but it celebrates Christmas and New Year's Eve with a gusto that renders privacy concerns a low priority right now.
Whatever the explanation, the discussion hasn't topped any trending topic lists. Still, the issue isn't censored — searching for "real name registration" brings up thousands of results on Chinese microblogs, the vast majority of which directly oppose the new law. Humor, especially in service of exposing government hypocrisy, is typically the first-line defense, with many microbloggers pointing out that People's Daily, a paper that regularly runs pseudonymous editorials, is the chief propagandist in promoting the end to their anonymity.
"Real-name registration has been put into practice on the Internet," tweeted a microblogger in Shenyang, using the Sina Weibo service. "So why isn't it being used in People's Daily?"

LUMBERTON — The Robeson County Board of Commissioners on Monday agreed to amend its franchise agreement with the Lumberton Rescue Squad and Emergency Medical Services so that paramedics with the entity can make home visits to Lumberton patients recently discharged from Southeastern Regional Medical Center.
The visits by the off-duty paramedics is being funded by a two-year $310,000 grant from Duke Endowment. The grant is aimed at reducing the number of discharged patients who make a return visit to the hospital within 30 days of their discharge.
Wayne Martin, who manages the hospital's Seventh Bed Tower, said that under the Affordable Health Care Act, hospitals can be penalized monetarily if large numbers of discharged patients return to the hospital within 30 days. Last year Southeastern Regional Medical Center was penalized $400,000, according to Robert Ivey, commander of the Lumberton Rescue Squad and EMS.
"At Southeastern the readmission rate is 27 percent," Martin said. "That's a substantial rate."
The hospital decided to seek the grant to provide follow-up home visits to discharged patients suffering from congestive heart failure, heart attacks and respiratory failure at the suggestion of the rescue squad.
Under the program, paramedics perform the follow-up visit within a few days of a patient being discharged. They look for factors that may lead to a patient's second hospital visit. They also check the patient's medication to see that it is properly being administered, as well as provide the patient with education about symptoms of their illness.
"I like to call this community medicine," said Greg Bounds, director of Robeson County's Emergency Services. "If we educate the patients, there may not be another need for them to return to the hospital."
The commissioners had to amend the county's franchise with the rescue unit because under the current franchise, paramedics can only provide services if there is a 911 dispatch. According to Bounds and Martin, Wake County is the only other local government in North Carolina that offers such a monitoring program for discharged patients.
Ivey said that about 12 paramedics will be involved in the program. The grant provides for them to be paid $35 an hour.
Initially, the program — to begin in February — is only being offered in Lumberton.
"Our goal is to reduce the number of return hospital visits," Bounds said. "If in two years the numbers shows the program is worthwhile, it will be expand throughout the entire county."
According to Martin, the paramedics will receive additional training on environmental and medical factors that may force a second visit to the hospital within 30 days.
In other business, the commissioners on Monday four incumbent commissioners — Raymond Cummings in District 5, Roger Oxendine in District 3, Jerry Stephens in District 1 and Tom Taylor in District 7 — were sworn in for new four-year terms.
Commissioner Noah Woods was re-elected as board chairman and Taylor was re-elected vice chairman. Woods has been chairman since July 2006. Taylor has served as vice chairman for the past eight years.
In other business, the commissioners:
— Passed a resolution recognizing James "Jimmy" Jones, 85, for "extraordinary valor and service in defense of our country, as well as defense of what our country stands for." Jones served as a Tuskegee Airman during World War II. In July he received a Congressional Gold Medal.
— Approved a resolution in support of naming the bridge to be constructed at Exit 22 of Interstate 95 in honor of Master Police Officer Jeremiah M. Goodson Jr. The resolution will be forwarded to the state Department of Transportation, the agency that will make a final decision on the bridge name.
Goodson was killed on July 17 while attempting to make an arrest.
— Reappointed Joe Bailey and Larece Hunt to the county's Health Board.
— Approved Woods as the county's voting member at the Legislative Goals Conference of the North Carolina Association of commissioners. The conference will be held in January.
— Approved three conditional-use permits for family cemeteries; two conditional-use permits for Internet Sweepstakes businesses; and a rezoning request to allow for the storage of commercial vehicles and a produce stand.

That's the Honda CB1000R, a machine that offers Superbike performance, a comfortable, do-it-all riding position, and sense of style that's off the charts. The formula is simple: We built a special chassis that puts the 998 cc engine out front and center, and lets you sit more upright. The result is one of the most versatile open-class bikes the world has ever seen, as comfortable on a long trip as it is confident on the boulevard. When you need one bike that can do it all, and do it exceedingly well, the CB1000R is the machine you want in your corner.
Do smart and fun fall into your equation for the ideal vehicle? If so, the 2012 CBR250R is the perfect bike for you. The CBR250R serves up everything first-time and long-time riders look for in a bike: Lightweight. Excellent fuel economy. Solid build quality. A user-friendly powerband. And a cool factor that can't be beat. Plus, since it's a Honda, the CBR250R is loaded with features few other bike companies can match, including our renowned reliability. Since it's a single-cylinder machine, the new CBR250R is narrow. Add that to a low 30.5-inch seat height and light 359-pound curb weight, and the CBR250R is as easy to handle on the curves as it is at a stoplight. We equipped the CBR250R with a fuel-injected single-cylinder engine, with double-overhead cams and a counterbalancer. Why? Because when you put it all together, you end up with a bike that delivers consistent power, mid-range torque and loads of confidence.
