Trend: Is a D Card Suddenly NBD?
It used to be that people with disabilities were put away in homes or institutions. Supposedly, this was because it would be better for the disabled person to receive individual attention and 24/7 care, but I also wonder if this approach was used because people saw those who had impairments as embarrassing or as a sign of parental failure.
These days, the disabled population is not only merely tolerated, but the community is also starting to be embraced in larger society. There is legislation to protect the basic rights of the disabled community and there are inclusion programs in schools to encourage socialization. Moreover, popular television shows like Glee, CSI, and The Good Wife have prominently featured characters with impairments, as do acclaimed feature films like Avatar and Ray. What's more, these listed programs and films are only a portion – a small one — of the examples of disabled portrayals in the media. 2009 was a good year, 2011 is better. Eventually, we might get to a place where carrying a D Card is no big deal (just please leave us some good parking spaces!) (more…)

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- The new "Star Trek" movie is number one at the box office. But it didn't exactly wow 'em when it came to taking care of business at the cash register. "Star Trek: Into Darkness" took in $70.6 million dollars over the weekend. That would be huge for a lot of movies—but its maker, Paramount, predicted it would pull in about $100 million in its first week of release. The sequel also falls short of its predecessor, which came out in 2009. That opened with $75.2 million for its opening weekend. The Star Trek release knocks "Iron Man 3" down a notch to number two. "The Great Gatsby" is third.

The Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) is a supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model of particle physics, predicting the existence of five Higgs bosons, two charged (H±) and three neutral (h, H, A). At tree level their properties are determined by two independent parameters: the mass of the CP-odd Higgs boson mA, and the ratio between the vacuum expectation values of the two Higgs doublets predicted tan(beta). In Supersymmetric models, the Higgs boson couplings to down-type fermions like b-quarks or tau leptons is significantly enhanced over a large region of the parameter space. Decays to tau lepton pairs occur 10% of the times and provide a cleaner environment for the search than decays to b-quarks. The tau lepton can decay into either a muon or an electron, plus neutrinos, or in hadrons plus neutrinos. In this poster, the search for the heavy neutral MSSM Higgses (h, H, A) is presented, where the final state is a pair of hadronically decaying tau leptons. This channel provides good sensitivity to discovery in the hypothesis of high mass signal. Signal events have to be separated from the background which is dominated by di-jet events from strong interaction processes, Drell-Yan events and W+jets. The event selection is optimized in two independent categories providing their best sensitivities in different mass regions.
CDF and D0 collaborations results suggests that the top-quark forward-backward production asymmetry is much larger than the Standard Model (SM) predictions. Measuring the $b \bar{b}$ asymmetry production would provide constraint on the flavor structure of any model that attempts to explain the CDF and D0 results. A measurement of the forward-central (FC) $b\bar{b}$ production asymmetry is presented based on the LHCb data collected in 2011 at $\sqrt{s}$ = 7 TeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb$^{-1}$ using selected events that have two identified $b$ jets, one of which is flavor tagged by one muon with high momentum. The FC asymmetry is defined as \begin{align} A^{b \bar{b}}_{FC}=\frac{N(\Delta y > 0)-N(\Delta y < 0)}{N(\Delta y > 0)+N(\Delta y < 0)} \end{align} where $\Delta y = \mid y_b \mid - \mid y_{\bar{b} \mid}$ is the rapidity difference between $b$ and $\bar{b}$ No SM precise prediction is evaluated but there is a consensus that at Low $M_{b \bar{b}}$ gluon fusion dominates resulting in $\cal{O}$(0.1 %) asymmetry. For $M_{b \bar{b}} > 100$ GeV the expected asymmetry is about $\cal{O}$(0.1 %) where gluon fusion which has no asymmetry is less dominant at high mass.
Evidence of CP violation in charmless three-body decays $B^\pm\rightarrow K^\pm\pi^+\pi^-$, $B^\pm\rightarrow K^\pm K^+K^-$, $B^\pm\rightarrow K^+ K^-\pi^\pm$ and $B^\pm\rightarrow \pi^\pm\pi^+\pi^-$
In this work we present a measurement of the ratio of the branching fraction of the radiative decays $B^{0}\rightarrow K^{*0}\gamma$ and $B^{0}_{s}\rightarrow \phi\gamma$ using 1.0 fb$^{-1}$ of data taken with the LHCb detector. The value obtained is \begin{equation} \frac{B\left(B^{0}\rightarrow K^{*0}\gamma\right)}{B\left(B^{0}_{s}\rightarrow \phi\gamma\right)}=1.23\pm0.06(stat.)\pm0.04(syst.)\pm0.10\left(f_s/f_d\right) \end{equation} Using the world average value $B\left(B^{0}\rightarrow K^{*0}\gamma\right)=\left(4.33\pm0.15\right)\times10^{-5}$ branching fraction is determined to be $B\left(B^{0}_{s}\rightarrow \phi\gamma\right)=3.5\pm0.4\times10^{-5}$. A measurement of the direct CP asymmetry of the decay $B^{0}\rightarrow K^{*0}\gamma$ is also presented. Both measurements are the most precise to date and are in agreement with the previous experimental results and theoretical expectations.
The LHCb purposes are to make precise measurements of $B$ and $D$ meson decays. In particular in time-dependent CP violation studies the determination of $B$ flavour at production is fundamental. This is known as "flavour tagging" and at LHCb it is performed with several algorithms. The performances and calibration of the flavour tagging algorithms with 2011 data collected by LHCb are reported. Also the performances of the flavour tagging algorithms in the relevant CP violation and asymmetry studies are also reported.
The LHCb detector was conceived to operate with an average Luminosity of $2 \times 10^{32}$ cm$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$. During the last year of LHC run, the whole apparatus has shown to be able to perfectly acquire and manage data produced at a Luminosity as high as $4 \times 10^{32}$ cm$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$. In these conditions, all sub-detectors operated at average particle rates higher than the design ones and in particular the Multi-Wire Proportional Chambers equipping the Muon System had to sustain a particle rate as high as 250 kHz/cm$^{2}$. In order to study the possibility of increasing the Luminosity of operation of the whole experiment several tests were performed. The effective beam Luminosity at the interaction point of LHCb was increased in several steps up to $10^{33}$ cm$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$ and in each step the behavior of all the detectors in the Muon System was recorded. The data analysis has allowed to study the performance of the Muon System as a function of the LHC Luminosity and the results are reported in this presentation.
Charmless $B \to 3$ body decays at LHCb
Use a model independent binned method to search for CP violation in singly Cabibbo suppressed four body charm decays. CP violation $\succ \mathcal {O}(10^{-3})$ would point toward new physics.
LHCb is fully instrumented in the forward region, $2 \leq \eta \leq 5$, and provides compelentary results to the central measurements of ATLAS and CMS. Preliminary limits are presented on neutral Higgs production usint $\tau \tau$ final states in the forward region of LHCb.
A search for non-resonant $D^{+}_{(s)} \rightarrow \pi^+ \mu^+ \mu^-$ and $D^{+}_{(s)} \rightarrow \pi^- \mu^+ \mu^+$ decays is performed using 1.0 $fb^{-1}$ of proton-proton collisions at s = 7 TeV recorded by the LHCb experiment. No signals are observed and the world's best limits on the branching fractions are set.

Avatar and Signature request.
I would please like a matching avatar and signature of the character Kenshin from the series Rurouni Kenshin or any of the movies. The colors I would appericate a forest green (#003300), crimson red (#660000), or Slate Grey (#999999) if at all possible. I would also like the character to have a slight smile on his face and if a passive stance like this.
http://static.animepaper.net/upload/...Phate_3934.jpg The avatar size please no bigger then 125x125. Signature size around 500x130 or if you want to make it fit into the anime-planet.com signature that would be great as well. Of course no rush necessary. I'm sorry if this comes off as demanding and/or rude, asking for things like this from others on forums while trying to be polite is hard for me. Last edited by Impulse; 03-09-2009 at 06:56 AM.. |

Do you feel like you're underpaid for the role you're in? Many of us might feel we are, we sit in quiet resentment and never say a word. Here's the thing, asking for an increase in salary or wage is extremely difficult. Here are some things for you to consider before asking for a pay increase.
1. The first and most important step is doing some research. You really should have done this part before accepting the job offer, and should have been part of your salary negotiation, but if you didn't do that in the beginning then it's time to do that now. There are many resources online that can give you comparative pay scales for various industries, try payscale.com.
2. The next thing you need to do is collect your job description and any performance reviews you have had with this organization, and the last one you were employed with (if applicable). Before you go and ask for that increase, you must feel that you fully understand everything detailed in your job description. Use this tool to your advantage; if you feel you exceed your job responsibilities then maybe instead of asking for a just raise, you can talk to your employer about a promotion! It never hurts to put it out there.
3. Write down specific examples of how you meet and exceed the details in your job description, keep these examples in your memory and let it boost your confidence. This will be useful when it comes time to sit down with your supervisor.
4. The last step is choosing the right time to sit down with your supervisor. Suggest a meeting time that is not during your actual shift, you should do this on your own time if you can. That way you will feel relaxed and at ease. Also be considerate of your supervisor's time, ask when is best to have a meeting and take it from there.
Good luck!

Council approves FMHS ninth-grade center, sports field relocation
By Chris Roark, email@example.com
Life at Flower Mound High School will be a little different in about a year and a half after a vote Monday.
The Flower Mound Town Council approved site plans for the ninth-grade campus at the high school, as well as a new sports complex, which includes a tennis court, a baseball field and a softball field.
The ninth-grade campus was part of the 2008 bond package approved by voters.
It will also include a lecture hall, a media center and a cyber cafe.
As part of the project, a black box theater will be constructed adjacent to the existing auditorium, and a basketball arena would be built near the field house.
FMHS Principal Sonya Lail said the facility is crucial to address an already overcrowded campus. She said the campus has 3,200 students now, and she expects there to be about 3,300 next year.
"Teachers have to float, and our students are packed in," Lail said. "This is a good thing, and it's time to make a change."
Lail also said it's important for ninth-graders to have their own space to make the transition into high school.
Science teacher Demona Shipman said the new center will allow students to have more space for hands-on activities and will allow teachers to do team teaching since some walls are removable.
To make room for the ninth-grade center, LISD plans to move three sports facilities across the school on Peters Colony Road.
District officials said it's necessary to continue with the ninth-grade campus plan, adding that the location across from the high school is the best place for the relocation.
"This allows us to have more square footage," said Sherika Nelson, FMHS girls athletic coordinator. "We need more equitable space, and this facility would give us that."
Residents expressed concern with the possible noise and lights that would come from the fields.
"We bought this house knowing that we had a nice buffer," said resident Todd Smith, whose property backs up to the proposed fields. "Now we have no buffer. We keep hearing people say that we need to take one for the team. Well how about LISD taking one for the team?"
Smith requested that music not be played between batters and between innings.
Michael Perry, LISD's executive director of new construction, said the district will use shuttered lights, they will be aimed toward the bleachers and away from the homes and that they will adhere to the town's strict light ordinance.
The Flower Mound baseball and softball coaches said there would be between seven to 10 home games per sport each season, which runs from February to May. They said the lights would be turned off by 10 p.m. Perry said lights at the tennis court should be turned off by 10 p.m. as well.
As far as noise, Perry said the speakers will be aimed toward the bleachers and not the outfield, which backs up to the adjacent neighborhood.
Perry also said noise can be addressed by keeping the music volume turned down low, establishing the proper pre-sets and making sure the coaches are in control of the press box.
Other measures Perry said the district will take to address lights and/or sound include a 25-foot landscaping buffer between the outfield and the neighborhood property line, plus an additional 60-foot compatibility setback. There will also be a 10-foot masonry wall, plus an 8-foot downward slope from the top of the wall to the center field ground.
There will also be a plan in place for residents to contact the district if the light or noise becomes a problem late at night.
Council members were concerned about students crossing Old Settlers Road since the new building would be next to the road. Councilman Steve Dixon suggested a mid-block crosswalk on Peters Colony Road to provide safety for students walking to the sports complex.
Doug Powell, Flower Mound's executive director of development services, said LISD is going to build a crosswalk at the intersection of Old Settlers and Peters Colony roads. He said the town is looking into improvements at that intersection that could include additional southbound and eastbound right-hand turn lanes.
Powell said the existing traffic on Peters Colony would be improved since most of the parents dropping off their children would use the east side of the campus.

Actor Walton Goggins stars in FX's "Justified" and in Quentin Tarantino's latest film "Django Unchained." (Robert Gauthier / Los Angeles Times) |
What was your contribution to Boyd's evolution?
It's been a real collaboration from the very beginning. Now I feel a kind of ownership over him, because I have so much invested in him and it's not just a job for me. It really is like an extension of my creative self.
You helped him evolve from a white supremacist stereotype to something more layered.
In the beginning, I said, "I'm not going to play a racist," and it was just for the pilot. I don't think that's who this guy is, and I'm going to encourage us to take him in the direction of making him smart and well read, a man who's self-taught and a lover of words. He was a messenger without a message, and he just needed people to follow him.
So when crime writer Elmore Leonard, whose work inspired the show, said of your character, "There's never been a more poetic bad guy on television in the way he sees the world," he wasn't talking about his conception of Boyd, he was talking about yours and the producers'?
Can I get a T-shirt made with that? My face is as red as the bougainvillea growing on the fence. I look for how a character can evolve over time, where are they starting from, and Boyd starts from a real deep place of pain. He's a wounded guy, and he vacillates between extremes. And I think his journey will be one of equilibrium.
Was he inspired by anyone you actually knew growing up in the South?
He's an amalgamation of a lot of people I met in the South, yeah. And then probably some of my own insecurities. I'm a lover of words. I left college to move to Los Angeles when I was 19 years old, and I for the longest time regretted that decision. I regretted being a part of conversations where people were making references to literature that I hadn't had the luxury to read because I was hustling when I got here. And I longed for that sustained period of reflection and curious exploration that a young person can have during college.
So I set out to expose myself to as many things as I possibly could, from religion to authors to art to music. I wanted to participate in a real way and have a real opinion and know what people were talking about. And that's somebody I've always wanted to play. I wanted to play a guy who was able to articulate his self-taught experience, and I was given that opportunity with Boyd.
Now that you have a 2-year-old, is that going to clip your wings?
Oh, no. It's the wind beneath them. In maybe three years, hopefully, maybe [when he's] 6 or 7 — I'm not that educated on when you can begin scuba diving — he'll have his license and we'll be on the road as much as we possibly can for summer and winter. We'll just go wherever the journey takes us.

Gravity racer - Calling all daredevils!Re: Gravity racer - Calling all daredevils!Thanks SIN. What is a good headtube angle? Since I stretched the bike at the pivot, I can decrease rake by raising the bike up.
Re: Gravity racer - Calling all daredevils!im with SIN, there is no need for seats, a sawed the seat tube fluch with the top tubes, filled it in, and the rear fender makes sure i dont get by butt on the on the back wheel. i have a 20" fully spring bike that i will take the rear swing arm off of, and im gona try mounting it to the front triangle off of a fully sprung 26" bike. i wont use the spring but i will use an adjustable metal peice that will keep the frame rigid while allowing me to adjust head tube angle by lengthening/shortening that rod. if someone beats me to this let me know what you learn. guys always stretch the fronts of bikes but i think thats wrong, the front triangle on a bmx is fine, stretch the back and you'll get yer weight closer centered between the wheels instead of riding over the back wheel with less weight - and therefore less control - over the front wheel.
fast eddie Fast Eddie,
Re: Gravity racer - Calling all daredevils!if you were gonna stretch the back, wouldn't you be trying the 26" swingarm on the 20" frame?
with the actual build off over, does this thread keep going? like become more general g-bike discussion than build off? i was gonna experiment a little more (mostly just switch wheels and tires), but i figured i'd just post the rest in a regular thread or most likely just continue my parallel thread on freakbike. start where you are
use what you have do what you can. arthur ashe
Re: Gravity racer - Calling all daredevils!yea philpine yer right, i had that backward. have you tried anything like that? as for tires i think that usuing high pressure tires work great, theyre smooth and give less roll resistance. i used odyssys 110 psi for a long time, still do on one of my bikes, i aired 'em up to 90 psi to leave room for expansion from heat from rim braking
fast eddie Fast Eddie,
Re: Gravity racer - Calling all daredevils!i haven't tried it for anything like a g-bike. i have on a couple of other oddities. as long as the pivots are the same it's not too hard to do.
yeah, my only try was with some tires that had a 40lb max inflation. i think now with cold weather coming i may take a tire off another bike and use it for at least one more try on the same hill i used before. the other bike is more important to me (one of my stretch cruisers using higher pressure tires), but i'm meaning to take it apart anyway over the winter so i can use the tire and hopefully get another before next spring, or just put it back when i have the other bike ready again. so at least one more try on the same hill with some straiter rims and the better tires, if i can make myself work out the details before it gets much colder. i mean to keep the bike though as a side project, so if not now, next spring. start where you are
use what you have do what you can. arthur ashe
Re: Gravity racer - Calling all daredevils!I have built a bunch of these. I modify Mixte frames. run 20" forks off youth bike that have canti studs. High pressure BMX tires. The 130 pound tires. Hack the top section of the seat tube out. Bend the rear seat stays back and mount a bananna seat. Long and low.
I turned mine into a drag bike. But you get the idea. It had bmx bars upside down. Delinquents Car Club, Twin Cities, MN
Re: Gravity racer - Calling all daredevils!Just be careful of metal rims and breaking/stopping. It will pop the tubes. Back in the day 25 years ago plus, we used tuff rims or mags. It kept the tubes from popping cause of the heat from the breaks. We rode in San Jose, Californiam down Quimby road and Sierra rd.. We were clocked at 72mph. We road a 20" in the rear with a 16" up front. We didn't like the extra weights. It made braking almost impossible. We made farings out of card board and fiberglass. You came with a bike with no fairing you got smoked,bad!
I really dig what everyone has done with their bikes. It has inspired me to build one again. I live at 6200 ft, mountains and gnarly roads everywhere. Thanks everyone for the isperation! I PS if you do flip the frames you have to be mindful of the head tube angle. I didn't care for much rake at all, so most frames worked for us. We would put steering dampeners from a screen door on our handle bars. Pedal on my friends or should I say coast on my friends. Blue
Re: Gravity racer - Calling all daredevils!whos is this that posted last?
Fast Eddie,
Re: Gravity racer - Calling all daredevils!I have to say I'm stoked about this thread. It has been a very long time since I rode a GB or even thought of one. I have been building custom bicycles now for a few years and now I see I have a new project in the future. I hit up my old friend that used to ride with me back in the day for some pictures of our old bikes. He is looking. Living in Tahoe with all the long windy roads here is going to make for a great winter project for some awesome summer riding. I think I have a friend here convinced to make his own bike too. Please keep in touch. Fast Eddie I tried to friend you on Facebook but it won't let me cause they think I am spam. I will send you a message on there if you could accept my friendship that would be great to get some inspiration from all the great bikes you have on that site. keep in touch. Blue
Re: Gravity racer - Calling all daredevils!good to hear yer gonna build one, i thought maybe you were one of the 'old timers' that used to post on the gravitybike.com site. i didnt get to ride this summer, i even finished a new bike and aint got it up to speed yet, but ill remedy that next summer for sure! lookin forward to seen yer build!
fast eddie Fast Eddie,
Re: Gravity racer - Calling all daredevils!Not me. There was another guy that my friends and I rode with a few times from San Jose too. He was kinda known in The GB scene. Gonzo or some thing like that, i'm not a 100% on that. I can't remember. We all have drama in our life's. It will pass and you will be riding again. keep your head up and stay strong.I went threw the same thing a few years ago. Now I can't stop building.
Re: Gravity racer - Calling all daredevils!i build bicycles too, thats a fun hobby, im putting a bicycle motor kit on one of them, should be fun! just wish i had more time for it all,
Fast Eddie,
Re: Gravity racer - Calling all daredevils!here is where i stopped at for now. it's been like this for a month or two, but i meant to add another speed result when i posted it
the front wheel is a spin carbon mag i got off ebay. the rear wheel has a small crack so the set went cheap. the tire is a kenda rated at 100psi. i found out later though it's not good to try and get a spin up that high, to max out around 80psi. still should be better than before though. one good thing, someone on another forum has mentioned making a disc brake adapter for a spin, so if i got more serious or just have the extra cash if/when he does it, i can put on better brakes. the rear is a wheel from an x-games bike. the bike i got the swing arm from for the other g-bike i made (the poseur). it came with a disc brake so no adapter needed. i can have front and rear discs maybe. the tire is a hoffman rated at over 100psi. the wheel disc were part of some close out off ebay. i got a couple sets together for not too much. one problem i gave myself is i didn't want to mess with the spin rim trying to get my speedo sensor on it, so i tried to extend the leads to reach the rear wheel and messed up somehow. the speedo doesn't work. that's why i never got another time. maybe by next spring i can fix or replace it. at first, even though i wasn't seriously thinking of starting g-bike competitions, i still tried to follow the rules that were posted fron that competition web site, but since they're not around any more, i may look for one of those pocketbike fairings. i like how that was done. so that's mine for now. i don't know what more might happen with it, but i plan to keep it for now. maybe next spring i'll play with it more. start where you are
use what you have do what you can. arthur ashe
Re: Gravity racer - Calling all daredevils!wow you got alot of work in that! it looks killer, good job. id like to put a fairing on my bike at some point, ive never done any fiberglass work but it's a time issue as always, im also one of those who has a garage ful of unfinished projects so im trying to concentrate on getting them done and NOT bringing in any new projects!

Osteoporosis, breast cancer, and eye care will be just a few of the topics featured in the up-coming Northern Montana Health Care/Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad and Havre Holiday Village Shopping Center Community Health and Safety Fair scheduled for Saturday, May 13, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Holiday Village.
"The purpose of the health fair is to create awareness of the wide variety of health and safety resources available around Havre," said Kathie Newell, Northern Montana Hospital public relations manager and one of the organizers of the event.
The theme for this year's event is "Improve Your Odds."
It was selected by Newell, Tiffany Korb, Holiday Village manager and Mary Berg, of BNSF.
Nearly 50 business and organizations will participate in the fair with many taking registrations for door prizes and drawings at their booths.
The first 50 visitors stopping by the BNSF booth, for example, will receive a free "Healthwise Handbook" that contains tips on self-care health problems, prevention, and when to call a doctor.
Other special features include a free five-minute chair massage provided by Therapeutic Touch Massage and Tender Touch Massage of Havre, wellness demonstrations, and a WorkFit demonstration that offers suggestions on how to work more safely.
Deanna Widner, of BNSF, will present the WorkFit demonstration at 11 a.m. and again at 2:30 p.m. in the fountain area of the mall.
Andrea Azure and Jennifer Rutherford, NMHC step aerobics instructors, will have students demonstrating step aerobics at 11:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. and Northwest Kenpo Karate Club will demonstrate the finer techniques of karate at 1 p.m. Exercise specialist, Shawn Toenyes, of NMHC, will join the fun at 2 p.m. with demonstrations and healthful options provided through his Adult Fitness Class.
A variety of free screenings will be offered by NMHC in the old Woolworth/Gibson store including: blood pressure checks, cholesterol and glucose checks, body fat analysis, and breast cancer risk assessment checks. Foot inspections will also be offered.
A fun little trivia test will also be available as visitors attempt to name all the different items in their home that contain latex.
NMHC will also be giving away more than four dozen bicycle helmets, a glucometer and a number of other health related gifts.
"Our staff is very excited about being at the Health Fair to help people get a grip on their special health needs and improve their odds," Newell said.
Newell said that with the continued support of NMHC, Havre Holiday Village Mall and BNSF, they would like to continue offering the Health Fair at least every other year.
"New developments in medicine, fitness and safety are being made every day," she said. "Offering our communities a regular opportunity to find out about those changes really gives people an opportunity to keep up-to-date on their health and safety."

Public safety officials tell The Sun Herald additional manpower will help make sure motorists and their families reach their holiday destinations safely.
Statistics show there's reason for concern about traffic safety over the Thanksgiving weekend. Thanksgiving is one of the deadliest for alcohol-related traffic deaths, second only to the New Year's holiday. That's according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Two people died in crashes on Mississippi highways on Thanksgiving weekend last year.
Col. Donnell Berry, director of the Mississippi Highway Patrol, says troopers will conduct safety checkpoints and will be on the look-out for impaired, speeding and distracted drivers.

Using the right combination of fonts in your design is key in achieving a custom finished product.
There are a few rules of thumb to follow when using type. Although I occasionally use a wide rang of typeface designs on certain projects, you should generally use no more than three fonts on a single design. Then, the question arises, "well, what fonts should I use?" And, "how do I mix them together, yet make them look unified and cohesive?" Before we get into that, let's delve into a brief anatomy lesson.
A serif typeface is a font that has little structural details at the end of each stroke, as seen in the fonts listed above.
A sans serif, is a font that is free of those structural details. I personally, happen to be addicted to sans serif fonts. They always look clean and simple to me.
Then you have ascenders and descenders. The ascender is the part of a lower-case letter that is taller than the font's x-height. And, in contrast, the descender is the part of the lower-case letter that extends below the baseline. Together, ascenders and descenders help the eye recognize words. You also need to be cautious when using type, that the ascenders and descenders are not too close between lines, as show below.
Now for the fun part. Mixin' it up! If you're a typeface junkie like me, you will love these online resources for free fonts. The more fonts the merrier, if you ask me. Sewers always talk about fabric they had in their "stash," but designers have a stash, too… our computer's fontbook. Nothing gets me more excited than finding a new, unique font, and adding it to my fontbook.
Some of my favorite places to peruse fonts are:
Everyone's taste in fonts and design are different. Comic sans is one of my least favorite fonts, but my mom loves it. So, to each their own! Find a typeface that speaks to you and is going to be a positive addition to your design.
When mixing fonts, be cautious. If you are using one font that especially wacky or fancy, mix it with another font that is light and simple.
In the baby shower invitation above, you will find three fonts. There is a big bold ornamental font, accompanied by two simpler fonts that are similar in stroke size. By stroke size, I mean the width of the line. If I would have paired the ornamental font with a bold font and a super scripty font, it would not have a the same simplistic cleanness. It would start looking overworked and busy.
The best tool in working with type is simply practice and research. Look through magazines and find adds or story headers that catch your eye. Look at what kind of fonts they used. Did they use a serif or a sans serif? How many fonts did they use in their design? What color scheme did they use? Put your inspiration to use and practice working with type. You might have a knack for it and surprise even yourself!
Check us out next week as we delve into the use of color in design and teach you to harness the rainbow!
Hey there Tip Junkies! My name is Emily and I am so excited to team up with my fellow sissies from Sissyprint and share some of our design secrets with you! We're really opening up our bags of tricks, so stay tuned through the month of October and get in on the nitty-gritty on how to become more graphic design savvy.
Part of what makes designing fun for us, is making that certain project look custom and personalized. And the best part? You don't have to be a professional graphic designer to achieve that customized look!

< Teemo | Redirected from Teemo The Swift Scout/Background
Champion | Ability Details | Background | Strategy | Skins & Trivia |
Lore Edit
Teemo is a legend among his yordle brothers and sisters in Bandle City. As far as yordles are concerned, there is something just slightly off about him. While Teemo enjoys the companionship of other yordles, he also insists on frequent solo missions in the ongoing defense of Bandle City. Despite his genuinely warm personality, something switches off inside Teemo's mind during combat so that the lives he must end while on patrol do not burden him. Even as a young recruit, the drill instructors and other trainees found it a little disconcerting that, while Teemo was normally charming and kind, he turned deadly serious and highly efficient the minute combat exercises began. Teemo's superiors quickly steered him toward the Scouts of the Mothership, which is one of Bandle City's most distinguished Special Forces unit alongside the Megling Commandos.While most yordles do not handle solo scouting missions with a great deal of finesse, Teemo is remarkably efficient at them. His record of success in defending Bandle City from infiltrators easily makes him one of the most dangerous yordles alive, though you'd never know it by having a cup of honey mead with him at his favorite inn. Bandle City chose Teemo as their first champion for the League, and he has taken to it like a duck to water. His signature weapon - a blowgun - uses a rare ajunta poison he personally gathers from the jungles of Kumungu. To help cope with his lengthy periods of isolation, Teemo recently struck up a friendship with Tristana, a fellow League champion and fellow member of Bandle City's Special Forces. This connection is healthy for both yordles, though now Valoran's voracious media outlets circulate rumors that the friendship is turning into a romantic relationship. Regardless, Teemo is a crowd favorite in the League of Legends, and a pint-sized foe that many have come to fear.
"Teemo rides a thin line between chipper compatriot and unrepentant killer, but there's no one else I'd rather have as a friend."― Tristana

Previous Abilities Edit
Original Lore Edit
Captain of the Bandle City Scouts, Teemo is the foremost defender of the yordle homeland. In addition to his duties as scout leader—which include planning the soap-box derby, teaching new recruits the scout's pledge, and judging the yearly s'more-eating contest—Teemo is also responsible for the defense of Bandle City itself. In Teemo's bestselling autobiography, Accuracy by Volume, the leader of the Bandle City Scouts expounds on yordle military tactics, such as blow-dart carpet bombing, and filling trebuchets with poison-tipped sewing needles.
Though he can often be found in the courtyard outside the practice arenas signing copies of his book, Teemo is really at the League of Legends for another reason. He has come, as the emissary for the entire yordle nation, to petition the Institute of War to start a new type of tournament. His proposition includes wood carving, rope bridge building, and campfire cooking to the list of approved forms of "combat" sanctioned inside the League. So far, he hasn't had much luck.
This Looks Like a Job for Super Teemo! Edit
Summoners!Look! Up in the sky! It's a cryophoenix! It's a gyrocopter! It's Super Teemo!
If you've ever dreamed of being faster than a speeding Rammus, more powerful than a mighty Cho'gath, and able to leap tall yordles in a single bound, then you'll definitely want to pick up Super Teemo. With powers and abilities far beyond those of mere mortal yordles, you'll be ready to fight the never-ending battle for truth, justice, and the Bandle City way!
Super Teemo will be swooping in to save a metropolitan area near you on Monday the 10th of October, so be sure to stop by to greet him at the League of Legends Store!

A federal appeals court has overturned a class certification in a case brought by Domino's Pizza delivery drivers over tips.
On February 4, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit's reversed a ruling by Judge Donovan Frank of the District of Minnesota and remanded the case. At issue in Luiken v. Domino's Pizza LLC was Domino's delivery charge, which began at $1 per-delivery in Minnesota in 2005 and increased to $1.50 in 2008.
The Eighth Circuit held that Frank wrongfully certified the class because "the varied context of the transactions made it unreasonable for some customers to construe the delivery charge as a payment for personal service."
Some drivers learned that the $1.50 charge was a delivery-only charge from drivers and order takers, but others were not informed. Online purchasers were notified of the charge. At the end of 2009, Domino's began to use boxes indicating that a delivery charge was a tip for the driver for some orders.
Former Domino's driver Matt Luiken sued Domino's in March 2009, claiming that the company's delivery charge was a gratuity under Minnesota. The statute considers a charge that a customer is obliged to pay a gratuity if it "might reasonably be construed by the guest, customer, or patron as being a payment for personal services rendered by an employee."
In November 2011, Frank certified a class of about 1,600 Minnesota Domino's delivery who worked for the company between March 2006 and February 2010. He ruled that the claims "turn on the question of whether the charge might reasonably be construed by the customer as payment to the delivery driver for the personal service of delivering pizza."
Domino's appealed the ruling.
Judge Duane Benton wrote the Eighth Circuit opinion, joined by judges James Loken and Lavenski Smith.
In his opinion, Benton relied on the 2011 U.S. Supreme Court ruling in Wal-Mart Stores v. Dukes. The 5-4 majority denied class certification to a group of more than 1 million women who claimed sex discrimination. The high court held that the women's claims did not have common questions of law or fact.
"Domino's offers a similar summary of differences in delivery transactions. Those differences affect the reasonableness of construing the delivery charge as a gratuity. Under Dukes, the district court here erred in finding commonality, because the varied circumstances of deliveries prevent 'one stroke' determination," Benton wrote.

Quilted Toy Leash
Hi! My name is Lisa Calle, and I blog at Vintage Modern Quilts. This is my first tutorial for the Moda Bake Shop, though I have been a Moda and Bake Shop devotee since I first learned to quilt.
I had my first baby, a boy named Benjamin, in November 2011, and I've been obsessed with baby sewing projects ever since. Today I have a project for all you mamas that have picked dropped toys up off the floor a few times too many. This toy leash also makes a great gift and sews up quickly.
4 charm squares (I've used Ten Little Things by Jenn Ski)
1 piece of batting (measuring 2" x 21")
1 plastic toy link (available in baby stores and most grocery stores and pharmacies)
2-inch strip of Velcro
Lay out your charm squares in a pleasing pattern and then join together, using a 1/4" seam. Press seams to one side.
Place your batting strip in the center of your pieced charms. Fold the left edge in 2 inches over the batting. Pin in place.
Line your foot up with the raw edge of the fabric and sew the length of the strip.
Fold the right edge in so it butts up against the batting strip.
Fold again and pin in place. Sew a 1/4" seam along the length of the strip at this new fold.(Your seam should match up with the first one, but if it doesn't, you can camouflage with your quilting.)
Quilt your strap as desired. The more quilting, the sturdier it will feel. Top stitch the long edges of the strap for a finished look. (The right side in the image below has been top-stitched; the left side has not.)
Trim any excess batting at both ends of the strap. Fold the top edge of the strap towards the inside 1/4 inch (the inside has the visible fold).
Sew 1/8" from the raw edge, and back stitch at each end. Trim any excess batting and threads. Repeat on the bottom edge of the strap.
Now it's time to add your final touches. Slip the strap through the plastic toy link and fold over so it covers the link and leaves room to stitch (about half an inch is enough).
Use a zipper foot to sew close to the link.
To add the Velcro, separate your hook and loop pieces (the hook is the pokey part and the loop is the soft part). Place the hook piece of Velcro so the top is aligned with the edge of the strap and it is centered across the width. Pin in place. Top stitch around the Velcro.
Measure just a hair under 6 inches from the bottom of the hook part of the Velcro to find the spot where you will attach the loop part. Pin your loop piece of Velcro in place as shown.
Top stitch around the Velcro.
One super cute and very helpful toy leash!

Ya know, it's a small world. I was just having this conversation with MY first born, also Benjamin, also born in November 2011, about how Mommy is really working her abs getting his toys off the floor! This is a brilliant idea! I even have a few charm squares left over that would be perfect!

I need a good 35 degree bag that will pack down small any suggestions?
I need a good 35 degree bag that will pack down small any suggestions?
WM highlight or summer light. im thinking of getting one to replace my marmot 40deg.pricey, but from what ive heard here, a great investment.
its all good
I just got this 35* bag this week: http://www.westernmountaineering.com...eLite%20Series
Western Mountaineering Highlite. In a cuben stuff sack it weighs just a hair over 1 lbs - less than 1 lb, 1 oz... Packs down small as pooh and lofts up nice and big (for a 35* bag).
It's my first WM bag and I'm very impressed.
another really happy wm highlite user. i suggest you don't use a stuff sack -- just drop the bag in the bottom of your pack.
I'm a big fan of down-filled Montbell bags. Huge fan actually.
cheaper alternative is a North Face Kilo...32*, down and weighs 2 lb. but can be had for $100 if you shop.
I use mine with a 15oz tarp so my shelter and bag is only 3 lbs.....bag has lasted 15 years and still going strong.
