Physical properties of lemon fruit are important for drying system and Kept in stock.
The prediction of airflow resistance is fundamental to the design of efficient drying and aeration systems for lemon fruit.
Using a laboratory unit, two sets of experiments were carried out, namely thick and thin layers. In the thick-layer experiments, four bed depths, 11 flow rates and four temperatures 25, 35, 45 and 55 C. In the thin layer (two kernels depth, 3 cm), the kernels were put together in three arrangements: A, B and random; five moisture contents and 11 flow rates were studied.
Results indicated that resistance to airflow through a column of lemon fruit increased with increasing bed depth and airflow rate. In the latter experiment, pressure drop decreased with a decrease in moisture content. Airflow rate was the most significant factor affecting the pressure drop of lemon fruit in both experiments.
Three applicable models (Shedd, Hukill and Ives, and Ergun) were used to evaluate the pressure drop data. The Ergun model, with higher values for coefficient of determination and lower values for sum of square error and mean relative deviation modulus, is the best model for predicting pressure drop across lemon fruit bed for the conditions studied.

A stroke occurs when blood flow to the brain is stopped or when a blood vessel in the brain bursts, filling the cavity with blood. When stroke occurs in children, it is often a result of some other underlying illness, such as a cardiac, blood or rare genetic disorders. The effects on the child depend on what part of the brain was affected by the stroke.
Doctors will need to perform several tests in order to diagnose the exact cause of the stroke and to tailor a treatment plan based on that diagnosis. They will likely want to perform brain scans, blood tests,
Immediate action is crucial. If a child is suspected of having a stroke, parents should seek urgent medical attention.
After evaluating the severity of the stroke, doctors will determine the appropriate treatment, which could include medications and physical rehabilitation.

The MPCF IS the Change!
Written by Alison Costa, Community Development Manager, Michael "Pinball" Clemons Foundation.
In August 2009, the Michael "Pinball" Clemons Foundation's (MPCF) co-founders Michael and Diane Clemons and Natasha Borota travelled to Kenya with Free the Children to take part in a school build thus meeting the community members and students of the Masaai Mara region. They were deeply impacted by their experience and a month after returning from this trip, MPCF made a significant commitment to raise funds to build 131 schools in a five-year time period. This announcement was met with awe, amazement and even a little disbelief by the Free the Children team.
That disbelief has been replaced with admiration as three years and three months later, not only has the goal been reached, it has been significantly surpassed. To date, funds have been raised to build the equivalent of over 150 schools through the Free the Children Adopt a Village Development Model. MPCF has through this fundraising initiative also helped to support clean water projects as well as a Free the Children supported orphanage in Haiti.
This donation will impact over 5000 students in five different countries and help give these children the right to an education. MPCF believes in tangible results and having visited Kenya and Haiti, personally witnessed first-hand how the students value their education and how motivated they are to learn. This solidifies our commitment. The first pillar of MPCF is education and we believe it is the catalyst to providing success and progress. Together with Free the Children we are "being the change".

I am not sure if it worth to support these libraries too as now fftw3 can use SIMD. See http://www.fftw.org/fftw3_doc/SIMD-alignment-and-fftw_005fmalloc.html for more information. This raises other questions: are numpy arrays properly aligned? Can we force numpy arrays to be properly aligned? That would be important to get most of the fftw3 performance out. If the questions above are important, feel free to close this issue and start another one. I guess we need some testing on these issues. -- Ticket URL: <http://projects.scipy.org/scipy/scipy/ticket/189#comment:2> SciPy <http://www.scipy.org/> SciPy is open-source software for mathematics, science, and engineering.

Saville Row suit cloth
made in Huddersfield
A young Yorkshire entrepreneur has taken on a team of six and won the contract to be the online camping partner of V Festival.
Huddersfield's international reputation and prosperity grew from the flourishing textile industry during the 18th and 19th centuries.
While many of the original mills are long gone or have enjoyed sympathetic redevelopment for office, living and retail space, the textile industry still thrives in this region.
High tech, sustainable practices have allowed the area's companies to lead the world in new, textile innovations.
Fabric manufacturer Camira has received national recognition for the development of Sting Plus, an environmental fabric made from fibre extracted from the common stinging nettle. CJ Antich meanwhile, has pioneered the cost effective manufacture of individual weave corporate suits, allowing bespoke wording to be woven into cloth.
Bower Roebuck & Co, part of Scabal Group, are skilled weavers, who still work on an apprenticeship scheme and boast true craftsmen. The Group has supplied cloth for suits worn by US Presidents including Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, George W Bush; A-list celebrities such as Tom Cruise and Pierce Brosnan; and for Hollywood films including Titanic, The Aviator and Daniel Craig's James Bond.
To maintain and expand the region's reputation in the world of textiles, a Textile Centre of Excellence has been established in Huddersfield. A major conferencing, research and training facility, the Textile Centre of Excellence is dedicated to supporting the industry through research, innovation and training.
It provides a wide range of 'state of the art' textile, clothing and production facilities, high quality training across a range of sectors, and award winning multi-media meeting and conferencing facilities. It also has a Design Incubator, offering fashion & textile business support designed to help the region's brightest fashion & textile designers start their own business.

Bonded to Damien and Devlin Blake -- two hot alpha wolves whose home in Wyoming spans acres of wilderness -- and pregnant with twins, Jenny Blake is perfectly content. The sex is fantastic, the companionship even better -- she's never been happier, healthier, or more at peace.
That calm is shattered when Jacob O'Connail comes to town. He's gone rogue, and a rogue weyr, rare and dangerous, can't be tolerated. Damien and Devlin plan to track him down and neutralize him before he ravages more than just rabbits and deer.

Brandi Glanville Puts Bid on New House: "I Just Did the Most Grown-Up Thing"
We got to see Brandi Glanville experiencing a very happy moment earlier this season on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills when she found a beautiful home to rent. Sadly, she now has to leave that home — but has she already found a replacement for it?
At the end of December 2013, Brandi announced that her home's owner suddenly wants to sell it. "We have only been here 9 months, grrrr," she tweeted.
However, Brandi took to Twitter this week to say that she was back to house-hunting and had already found a potential keeper. "Ok, so I'm wasn't going to tell anyone, but I just did the most grown-up thing, & I have knots in my stomach — I put a bid on a house!" Brandi writes on January 11. "Cant breathe."
Brandi later wrote that she couldn't wait to find out if she gets the home. "OMG its crazy!" she tweets. "I canceled plans to stay in tonight since boys are at dads! Too much energy!"
When a Twitter follower wished her the best, Brandi responded, "Thanks, but I may not get it, or I may — either way, it's exciting! :)"
Sadly, it turns out that this wasn't the right home for Brandi. "Didn't get [the home], but I think everything happens for a reason," she tweets on January 12. Bummer! But we love Brandi's attitude, and we wish her the best in her search.

Whenever I look at the current crop of eBook readers I just think they're all a bit small for what I want to do with them. OK, the Kindle DX goes some way towards 'big enough' but it's not till I saw the Skiff reader that I thought, yes, that's what I need.
Reading books, novels and small format magazines is only half the story, what about journals, magazines and newspapers? At just over 6mm thick and packing an 11.5-inch (1600 x 1200) "Metal Foil" touchscreen display, I might finally get what I need in an eReader and can stop printing all the journal articles from the likes of Nature, PLOS and Science. If it comes with some way to make notes efficiently on the screen then this might be the product that every academic jumps on. It even looks the business. Still it's a bit speculative (2010 release apparently) and comes bundled with Sprint 3G, so it'll probably never make it over the pond, but one can hope eh?

It's the day all Twi-hards have been waiting for! Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson have arrived in Cannes and are making very public appearances as the actress promotes her new film, "On The Road".
Making a fashion statement in a flashy pair of Balenciaga pants at the film's press conference on Wednesday, Kristen dished on her first nude scene: "Obviously everyone who does scenes like that, the first thing you say is, 'Oh I felt so safe, Walter put me in an environment that was very informed by the natural story.' But I love pushing, I love scaring myself."
Rather than faking it with pasties, the brunette beauty explains why it had to be genuine: "I wanted to do it - the reason I want to do the job is because you read something and you're provoked on some level. It's just taking that further and being able to live it... and I always want to get as close to the experience as I possibly can."
Meanwhile, her real-life beau Rob stepped out to both the presser and the red carpet premiere of "On The Road" on Wednesday to support his girlfriend. RPatz sees his "Cosmopolis" world premiere on Friday, May 25 with Director, David Cronenberg.
See more pics from the "On The Road" premiere here and watch ET Canada tonight for all the action!

Cal Falls to No. 16 Creighton 74-64
Related Links
Dec. 16, 2012
BERKELEY, Calif. (AP) - Doug McDermott had a season-high 34 points and nine rebounds and No. 16 Creighton ran its winning streak to four games with a 74-64 victory against California on Saturday night.
Gregory Echenique added 10 points, 11 rebounds and five blocked shots for the Bluejays (10-1).
McDermott, averaging 22.7 points coming in, posted his seventh straight game with 20 or more points.
Justin Cobbs had 18 points and Allen Crabbe added 14 after missing his initial 12 shots from the floor in the defeat.
"I thought I was going to get into a rhythm at some point in the game but I didn't," said Crabbe, who finished a season-worst 6 of 26 from the floor. "That's pretty unacceptable. They were shots I usually make, that's the frustrating part."
After Crabbe's basket with 11:49 remaining pulled Cal to 46-43, McDermott hit the first of three straight 3-pointers by the Bluejays as they pulled away.
Crabbe led Cal in scoring in seven of its first eight games and was sixth in the country with a 21.9 average before being held to his second-lowest point total of the season. He had 13 against Georgia Tech on Nov. 23.
"We didn't do a good job of getting other people involved, which is what we needed to do," Cal coach Mike Montgomery said. "We have to get over the idea that he's the only guy that can score. We've got to get other people involved."
Cal (6-3) lost its third in a row following a 6-0 start and second straight against a ranked opponent at Haas Pavilion. The Golden Bears were beaten 76-75 on a buzzer-beater by No. 21 UNLV last Sunday. They have three remaining non-conference games before the start of Pac-12 play at UCLA on Jan. 3.
McDermott had a season-high 34 points and nine rebounds with more than a dozen NBA scouts watching as Creighton (10-1) ran its winning streak to four games.
"We got them frustrated early," McDermott said. "We held Crabbe in check, that was our main goal. He's a really good player but we did a good job of locking him down."
Gregory Echenique added 10 points, 11 rebounds and five blocked shots for the Bluejays.
McDermott scored 18 in the first half and shot 6 for 8 from the floor with a pair of 3-pointers, putting on quite a show for all the scouts in the building _ primarily in attendance to see him.
Cobbs hit a late layup, crashed into the basket support and was down briefly, then came out holding his head. He did not return.
Creighton showed few signs of being travel weary out West, going 25 for 61 from the floor and building off a 77-61 victory at home against Akron last Sunday in which McDermott scored 30 points and had a career-high six 3s.
Cal missed its initial nine shots before Robert Thurman's layup at the 16:16 mark, and began the game 2 for 15. Each team was 0 for 4 from long range in the opening 8½ minutes.
A moment of silence was held before the national anthem for the victims of Friday's deadly attack at a Connecticut elementary school.
The game attracted more than a dozen NBA scouts, with 15 NBA personnel credentialed in all. General managers Bob Myers of the Golden State Warriors, Dell Demps from the New Orleans Hornets and the Oklahoma City Thunder's Sam Presti attended.
Cal won the previous two meetings between the schools, but they hadn't played since the 1987-88 season. Creighton coach Greg McDermott lost at Cal in December 2009 while coaching Iowa State.


text: Earlier this month we reported on a move by Sharp to capitalize on the 5-inch display they are producing for the HTC DROID DNA. Sharp plans to produce their own Aquos device with the same large 1080p screen. Initial plans were to target the device at the Russian market. This meant some tradeoffs were made in the hardware and early reviews indicated this caused the device to struggle with some activities like games and video playback. Sharp now appears to be expanding on their plans by offering the new Aquos in China. They have started that effort with the production of some promo materials comparing the device to several other top end smartphones. Read more

The oldest culture on earth has something the rest of the world might benefit from learning.
i, for one, hope the world proceeds to learn hanging corrupt officials and bankers.
Why hang them. What they really need is to be told over and over to sit down and shut the hell up.
Irrelevancy BITCHES!!
Looks like someone tripped over the trap door release mechanism and the entire stinking lot of them fell through. Oh well, there's a reserve crew in the next room. Send in the clowns.
Should I start popping the popcorn now and call in sick to work, or wait until the evening news?
The game of musical chairs has begun. Smiles are soon to be off the faces of the international brotherhood of central bankers.
Market turmoil just gives Germans more fodder to start regulating hedge funds, imposing bank and trading taxes and restricting certain derivatives on German assets. F_you, Anglosphere casino capitalism.
fat middle finger?
Phat mittle finger yaaaaa!
Get your 0.01 cent bids in now !
Harry ? Anyone seen Harry ?
It's whipsaw Thursday. Again.
The Chinese have learned from Martin Armstorng how things will play out. They are going to sit back and let us eat each other.....
EURUSD buying support is still evident.
It's unfortunate that the young Chinese communists are so intent in maginalizing their own roots in order to prove they can out consume the West.
For several days I have been warning of EURUSD buying support as detected by my indicators, and this has been confirmed by the recent break out.
The proprietary indicators I use can identify trend changes before they occur.

Family: $22.5M police settlement 'bittersweet'
CHICAGO The parents of a California woman who was raped and severely injured after Chicago police released her from custody in a troubled neighborhood despite her obvious mental illness said Thursday that a $22.5 million settlement with the city is a "bittersweet victory."
The settlement that will pay for Christina Eilman's extensive ongoing therapy is the largest in a police misconduct case in Chicago history. The City Council also signed off Thursday on a $10.25 million settlement in another police misconduct case in which a man spent 26 years in prison for a murder he didn't commit. It was the largest award to come from the investigation into a notorious police unit that framed innocent black men in the 1970s and 1980s.
After the council's action, Christina Eilman's mother and stepfather, Kathleen and Richard Paine, released their first public statement in years about the case. They described how the events that culminated in their daughter falling or being thrown from a 7th-story window had devastated her life.
"No amount of money will bring back the daughter we knew, the lovely young woman who was full of life and accepting of all people," the Paines wrote. "Her life was dramatically changed after she came to Chicago and found herself in the grasp of several insensitive and uncaring police officers and detention aides who humiliated her, directed cruel and insensitive comments toward her, ignored her desperate need for help and placed her in harm's way."
Eilman's federal lawsuit against the city was scheduled to begin next week. Her family initially was seeking $100 million, but agreed to the lower figure during extensive negotiations with the city.
Chicago Alderman Edward Burke says the city could have lost $80 million or more had a jury learned of all that Eilman went through and the nine desperate calls her mother made to police in the 27 hours. She had begged officers not to release her daughter because her daughter was bipolar and having a breakdown, but to no avail.
Jurors might also have heard from Eilman herself. Her attorney, Jeffrey Singer, said Eilman doesn't remember the events leading up to her fall, but she speaks the way one might expect from a "pre-adolescent" and could have testified about her life and dreams.
"She always wanted to be a dancer," said Singer, who said Eilman also talks about other jobs she'll never be able to do, such as being a lawyer or talk show host.
Eilman was a 21-year-old college student when she was arrested at Midway International Airport in May 2006 because she was acting strangely and violently.
Despite doing things like babbling incoherently and smearing menstrual blood on the holding cell walls, and after her parents' frantic calls, Eilman was released to fend for herself in a high-crime area. She ended up in a nearby public housing building, where a man raped her at knifepoint before she fell from a seventh-story window.
Singer said at the time the family filed the lawsuit, she was just coming out of a coma, and was still hooked up to machines to feed her and keep her breathing.
"We thought that her medical expenses could be $1 million a year and her life expectancy was going to be close to 60 years at that time," attorney Jeffrey Singer said.
But Eilman made a substantial recovery to the point where the various expenses to care for her are not expected to be nearly as high, Singer said. He also explained that because a big chunk of the $22.5 million will be invested, the settlement amount could climb to $45 million or more.

Facebook unveiled a new messaging system today that combines instant messaging, chat, email and txt messaging.
Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook CEO, revealed the new system on Monday and insisted "this is not email." All current Facebook users will receive an @facebook.com email address based on their vanity name. The real news is that Microsoft's Office Web Apps will be included in Facebook's new messaging system. Facebook's new messaging platform integrates the Office Web Apps to enable Facebook users to view Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents.
Announcing the integration, Microsoft's Corporate VP of Office, Takeshi Numoto said:
"I'm really excited about being able to make it even easier for people to use Office to access and share information across different devices, networks and platforms. With the Office Web Apps on Facebook, you have even more ways to express yourself with Office and easily share your thoughts with people that are important to you."
Microsoft and Facebook have been partnering on a number of technologies recently. The software giant has a long standing advertising partnership that saw it invest a $240 million equity stake in Facebook back in 2007. In October Facebook announced a partnership withMicrosoft's Bing search engine to provide social integration. Users of Bing now see social powered search results that incorporate information that their friends have liked on Facebook. Microsoft and Facebook also revealed Docs.com earlier this year. The site is built on a stripped down version of Microsoft's Office 2010 Web Apps platform. The service can be used to share Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents with Facebook friends.
Today's announcements increase the integration of Microsoft Office into Facebook. Expect to see more Microsoft and Facebook partnerships over the course of 2011.

This weekend, Barry Levinson's disgustingly gelatinous eco-horror tale, "The Bay," will be unleashed in theaters and on iTunes. A cutting, inventive found-footage tale of a Fourth of July weekend that goes horribly wrong, we saw it at the New York Film Festival (where it was part of their inaugural crop of midnight movies) and pretty much loved it. The movie is all the more surprising for coming from the gentle, humanist creator of "Diner" and "Tin Men." We caught up with Levinson at this year's New York Comic Con and talked about what brought him to the found-footage horror genre, where film is headed, and what he thought of that gushing Vanity Fair piece on "Diner" from a few months ago.
Initially, the project started as a straight documentary about the Chesapeake Bay, a body of water that, the film points out, is now 40% dead. (Yikes.) Levinson realized that there was already a documentary on the subject, though, and feeling that he couldn't "necessarily improve upon it," changed course. "What stayed with me was all of these frightening facts," Levinson explained. "So I thought, well, storytelling, that's what I do, why not bring that into it…" He said that this line of thinking got him into a "sci-fi/sci-fact/eco-horror" thing that reminded him of the movies that played up timely social and political fears. "It's not unlike in the fifties, the scare of atomic energy unleashed," Levinson said. "You apply factual stuff to other things and create a piece of entertainment."
Levinson said that he wasn't looking to do a genre movie ("It didn't jump out at me") and even the found-footage aesthetic wasn't something that readily presented itself. Instead, it was born out of Levinson's desire to tell the most human version of the story, which is unsurprising given his oeuvre. "I was thinking about – this is the first time in history that in the midst of all this big stuff going on, you can find all of the small human behavior that was taking place," Levinson said. "So you can hear telephone conversations, people that were texting, people that were doing all these things – and we can find the small moments, which never would have been done before, against this catastrophic backdrop."
Capturing those moments, though, required a fair amount of research. Levinson said that the movie used "21 types of cameras, all of them consumer grade." He explained, "I didn't want to shoot with all these high-end cameras and have to degrade it later. We did all the tests earlier – what's the Google camera going to look like, what's the iPhone camera going to look like? Which was rather interesting to see the capabilities of those cameras." Levinson added, "I had a lot of fun in that."

Happy weekend to one and all. We're nestling down for a long weekend here, since we keep things quiet for Presidents' Day.

Figures on the amount of digital data created and consumed are astonishing. According to IDC's Digital Universe study, the digital universe is set to reach 40 zettabytes, which is a 50-fold growth since the start of 2010. But when you consider that today's organizations have no boundaries – thanks to the cloud, smartphones, laptops and tablets — it's easy to see how the amount of data we capture, review and consume can grow exponentially over relatively short periods of time. We can now work with customers, partners and contractors in other organizations as easily as if they were sitting in the same meeting room as us.
Every day, I review, approve and create documents on my smartphone or tablet when on the move just as easily as I can when sitting at my office desk. Whether it is HR policies, board reports, marketing campaigns, contracts, strategy documents or sales collateral, information is being shared and worked on by multiple people in numerous organizations across the globe. Data is being share, captured and consumed via multiple devices, emails, enterprise ICT systems and consumer file storage tools.
And therein is the issue. While on the surface, anytime, anywhere access to information sounds like every worker's dream (I suspect few people love being tied to an office desk from 9am until 5pm!), how do you even start to find the information you need? Enterprise-wide cloud systems break down silos, increase knowledge sharing and help resolve the security issues linked to data being fragmented across organizations – via inboxes, desktops, devices, legacy enterprise systems. But how do you avoid replicating documents and wasting hours of time sifting through files to fine the one you need when faced with a mountain of information?
For the answer, the enterprise world has to take a leaf out of what is going on in the consumer space and get smart. It's all about intelligent systems. Consider Facebook's Graph Search and the way in which it harnesses the power of recommendation to search for people, photos and locations based on your personal information and that shared by your friends. Answers are based on likes, check-ins and profile data. Then take Google's Knowledge Graph. According to Google's Amit Singhal:
"This is a critical first step towards building the next generation of search, which taps into the collective intelligence of the web and understands the world a bit more like people do."
It is an intelligent search tool that doesn't just retrieve data and deliver links to answers, it actually provides the answers. This intelligence is the next generation of search in the consumer world and it is also the basis for the next generation or enterprise search. While the use of intelligent recommendation engines isn't new in the consumer space — Amazon has been using such technology in the retail space for years — it's far more developed in our personal lives than it is in our work lives. With so much data being created and shared in businesses globally, enterprise systems now need to be inherently intelligent.
Imagine an enterprise platform that understood what content you were likely to need and on what device you'd like it on. Imagine if, based on who you worked with on, the kind of documents you created and the teams you were in, the system picked documents for you and synced them to your devices so you could work on them regardless of whether you were online or offline. This is exactly what the modern workforce now needs and we've tried to respond to this need with Huddle's intelligent recommendation technology. With consumer technology stampeding towards intelligence, enterprise technology must pick up the pace and provide some relief for a workforce already drowning in data. The future and possibilities of intelligent recommendation engines in the enterprise is incredibly exciting.
Alastair Mitchell is co-founder and CEO of Huddle.com.

Annalynne McCord lost the mom-appropriate attire, from meeting her boyfriend's mother, and hit the sand yesterday at Hermosa Beach, CA. Annalynne, her sister Angel, and a handful of friends dominated the beach with an action packed game of beach volleyball. All the while posing for the paparazzi in numerous positions.
While Annalynne played on the beach, her hunk of a man Kellan Lutz attended Coachella festivities with the rest of Hollywood for the annual hipster weekend. I approve of a couple who stay true to doing charity marathons, working out constantly, and swimming together. They are the picture perfect couple of Health magazine.
I've been on a Coachella news feed all weekend ogling over celebrities outfits. Even though Annalynne looks like she is having a lot of fun on the beach, I really wish she was at Coachella so I could compare and contrast her outfit to Katy Perry's, Kate Bosworth's, and Peaches Geldof.

This is how I've set it up:
Average velocity west: = -25 m/s = (-18.75 m) / (3/4 s)

A Woman's Paris
A Woman Who Loves Paris
A Woman's Paris® is about the French aesthetic in elegance and culture.
I travel to Paris every chance I get and have learned a lot along the way. I've gone alone, I've gone with a single companion, I've gone with family. I've stayed in hotels and apartments, shopped in boutiques and markets, walked miles, made friends, eaten all kinds of foods in all kinds of venues, visited busy tourist sites and made personal pilgrimages to obscure places.
I collect art and adore French fashion. I have never seen an Hermès scarf I didn't like and believe in serendipity, since I once found the perfect Chanel accessory in the dust of a Paris street.
At A Woman's Paris® we want to share what we have discovered with others who love Paris and France whether they are planning a holiday or just want to enjoy their memories of Paris and France at home through our publication, Paris-themed products and fine art prints.

My Thoughts
My toddler loves the Wonder Pets so much that she walks around singing the "Team Work" theme song for everything she does. I love her watching this show as it teaches her to work with others to solve a problem and I love hearing her laugh when she is watching it, and she loves Ming-Ming. Her favorite episode on this DVD is "Save the Mermaid" as she has informed me that she wants to be a mermaid when she grows up I recommend everyone adding this to your child's DVD library!

Your self esteem is like your set of fingerprints
Your self esteem is like your set of fingerprints – they're on everything you touch: your bank account, your relationships, your health, you name it. It has a direct influence to how we show up in life and the results we're creating – or sabotaging. The good news? You can build your confidence & self esteem like any other muscle to make it stronger and healthier in your life. You also can go to work on you, which in turn will go to work on your sales.
Consider this – do you treat yourself like a top priority in your life? Do you cheer yourself on or tear yourself down? Do you put everyone else first and yourself last, or not at all?
Quick Inventory: Where would you rate your current level of self esteem? Now, ask yourself, what's one thing I can do to improve it? Begin doing it immediately! Part of building great self esteem is trusting ourselves and taking action on what our heart or intuition guides us to do.
To help you get started on a path to enhancing your self esteem and therefore your results, consider these few insights to support you:
1. Trust.
Self confidence comes from having a deep sense of trust within ourselves. Do you trust yourself? If no, can you forgive yourself and commit to repairing trust within you? Stephen Covey teaches that the fastest way to build trust with ourselves and others is "to make and keep commitments"…whereas the opposite is also true. Every time we make and break commitments, we erode trust. Tighten up your word with yourself so you feel confident that you're in integrity with the boss – you!
2. Self Care.
Do you take time to exercise, get good sleep, pray or meditate – or any other activity that helps your physical and emotional well being? Do you make time for you? If not, begin with 15 minutes per day to start investing in you. This simple practice will add up to a big deal.
3. Date Yourself.
(I loved typing that by the way!) What I call a "Joy List", choose to do at least one thing a week that is just for you – a massage, a game of golf, hiking, baking your favorite treat – whatever brings you joy on any level, free to expensive, that brings you a sense of joy to your life. Ideally you do something daily or multiple times a week, but at least begin with one a week. You are responsible for your happiness – so go create it!
When our BEHAVIOR backs up the BELIEF that we're valuable and deserving, amazing things happen. Affirmations without action are simply "make believe." If your behavior doesn't align with the belief that you're fabulous, worthy, valuable, etc then you'll struggle to really believe it and live it. –

Just in time for the November 20 theatrical release of The Twilight Saga: New Moon, Bluewater Productions introduces the first-ever illustrated biography of the world renowned author of Twilight in Female Force: Stephenie Meyer.
Named USA Today's "Author of the Year" in 2008, bestselling author Stephenie Meyer is responsible for ushering in a new vampire-centric fan base. From her beginnings in Connecticut and Utah, to her fame and fortune as today's hottest author, witness her story being told by the most famous vampire of them all in a new comic book that's sure to take a bite out of comic book expectations!
In regards to how the book got the greenlight, Bluewater Productions Publisher Darren G. Davis explains all the excitement that went in to the project.
"Years ago," he explains, "I was a huge Anne Rice fan reading all the Interview with the Vampire books. So I balked at the whole Twilight phenomenon until a friend of mine forced me to read it. I am in the middle of the third book right now. I have been to Forks, and own the movie. I think it is safe to say that I am hooked like everyone else in the world."
Davis later said to Previewsworld, "We chose Stephenie Meyer to be one of the subjects for Female Force because her voice is one for a new generation. Now people will find out the history of how she created this series, as well as her life story."
After the publication of her first novel, Twilight, booksellers chose Stephenie Meyer as one of the "most promising new authors of 2005" (Publishers Weekly). Since then, the Twilight books have sold over 53 million copies, and have been translated into 37 languages.
Female Force: Stephenie Meyer will be published in October, to coincide with the movie's slated release of November 20.

Daily News Gets Food Section; Tasting Table Adds Recipes
But will the 'News' get its restaurant critic back?
Another day, another couple of food launches. First and foremost, the Daily News has announced that this Sunday's paper (and subsequent ones) will feature a full-color "New York EATS" section within its "Your New York" section. A News rep promises "a wide variety of recipes and helpful cooking tips," and declined to comment on whether the paper has filled the restaurant reviewer position that was stripped from Danyelle Freeman back in September. And speaking of recipes, Tasting Table tells us it's launching a biweekly newsletter, "Chefs' Recipes Edition," that will present a recipe from a notable chef, cookbook author, or mixologist twice a week. Next week's premiere recipe will be Maialino chef Nick Anderer's Bavette in Guzzetto.

You may have seen me mention on Facebook that there are not many white spaces on my calender this month. The last thing I want to think about is what to make for dinner! School is winding down which means programs and field trips and lots of end of the year activities. Summer sports are starting–Potato is playing T-ball this year. And the girls are gearing up for their dance recital in June. Not to mention, J-bug is making her first Holy Communion in a few weeks (and so is my nephew) and my youngest sister is getting married at the end of the month, so there are events planned around all of that.
Do you menu plan or fly by the seat of your pants when it comes to deciding what to make for dinner? I have jockeyed between being uber prepared by once a month cooking (Yep, Janene and I have done the once a month cooking thing together a few times!) and being under prepared which results in a higher food bill due to trips through the drive through or a call to the pizza shop up the road. Even though menu planning does take a small investment of time at the beginning of the month or week the investment pays dividends when you are standing in front of your open refrigerator paying for it to cool your kitchen while you try to decide what you can do with a half dozen eggs and wilted celery.
Here is a small list of resources I have used in the past that help me avoid the fast food lane and hopefully they will help you with your menu planning.
The Grocery Game — For the budget conscious planner (which is ME!). This website matches weekly coupons to store sales. It lets you know when you are getting the best deal so that you can stretch your grocery dollars further by stocking up on items you use regularly. There is a fee for this site and you can find the information for free on the Internet in other places. However, I find that the Grocery Game is easy to use–they do all the work for you reliably, week after week. For me, it has been the easiest, least time consuming, way to keep up with my couponing habit. I have saved over $4000 dollars at my grocery store over the past 12 months and I believe it is due to my habitual use of this website. The fee is worth it to me. I plan many of my meals around the weekly sales that I see using this site.
The Meal Index— If you have done any cooking for your family over any stretch of time then you may have amassed a mental list of family favorites and go-to meals. The key is getting all of those meal ideas out of your head and onto paper so you can access them quickly and easily the next time you are stumped about what to make for dinner. Simply set aside about twenty minutes and sit down with pen and paper. Make a list of seven to ten different categories. Examples: Mexican, Italian, Family Favorites, Breakfast for Dinner, Meatless Meals, Grillin' Favorites, Crock Pot Meals etc. Then think of all the meals that you make and plug them into their respective category. Believe me you will be surprised to see your list quickly fill up. Make it a goal to think of five or six meals in each category. At the end of your brain storming session you will have a minimum of 35 meals. Now just plug those meals into your calander! Rotate them around each month and don't forget to save some space to try new recipes or eat out.
Pinterest — Go there. Browse your friends' food boards. Type in a meal and see what pops up. There are limitless ideas here, complete with yummy looking pictures! I always check out Pinterest if I am looking for a little inspiration to try something new.
Grocery Store Fliers–I love Tuesdays–that's when the new grocery store flier is delivered to my mail box. I get a peak at what is on sale and start the wheels turning right there about what we might have for dinner the next week.
Once A Month Mom–I mentioned above how Janene and I gave once a month cooking a try. Once a Month Mom is your one stop shop for all things freezer cooking. They've got tons of menus complete with grocery lists, recipes, and how to's for cooking a month's worth of meals in one day. There are lots of cooking tips and ideas about how to customize the process to fit your life style (like mini-menus, and diet conscious recipes: like whole foods, gluten free etc.) If it's your first time looking into freezer cooking I recommend you start HERE.
Facebook — It seems like a no brainer. Every so often, I have asked the question: What are you having for dinner? And friends have posted away, giving lots of ideas that I can use for my own menu plan. I have also posted my favorite recipes and recommendations. There are Facebook Groups popping up all over the place relating to food and what to make for dinner. A quick search will have you swimming in dinner ideas in no time!
Menu Plan Monday — Have you met Laura at I'm an Organizing Junkie? She hosts a weekly link-up called Menu Plan Monday where bloggers flock to link up their posts that feature weekly menu plans. You will find recipes and meal ideas galore! Janene and I have both linked up there before and you can also find some of our favorite bloggers linking up each week if you are ever stumped, a few clicks will get your creative juices flowing!
I hope these ideas keep you from floundering at meal time! Please let me know in the comments if you've come across any must share resources!
{Disclaimer: I have not been paid or perked to mention these wonderful websites. I find them to be valuable resources for myself and couldn't resist sharing them with you!}

Glee Season 5 Spoiler Photos: Demi Lovato and Adam Lambert With Rachel and Crew in NYC!
As we were eating up the Glee Season 5 premiere last night (September 26) Lea Michele (Rachel), Chris Colfer (Kurt), and Naya Rivera (Santana) were on the show's set continuing to film scenes for Season 5 and they had some very special guests.
Lea tweeted not one but two photos from the Glee set yesterday, both featuring highly anticipated guest stars Adam Lambert (Starchild) and Demi Lovato (Dani). "On set now with the amazing @ddlovato, adamlambert, @chriscolfer & @NayaRivera! #gleeseason5," she wrote along with the above photo of the fierce fivesome.
This photo (and the one below) was likely taken while the cast was filming Season 5, Episode 4: "A Katy or a Gaga." Since they're backed by a band and each in front of a mic stand (Demi even has a guitar in hand!) we'd be willing to guess that they are in the process of filming a pretty intricate musical number. Many sites have speculated that they will even be belting out Katy Perry's "Roar" in this ep.
Lea was equally psyched about the second photo (at left) which features a similar setup, only this time everyone was hamming it up for the camera. "NYC crew!", she wrote.
We'll get to meet Demi's character Dani — who also happens to be Santana's new crush! — next week, but Adam's character, reportedly named Starchild, won't be introduced until a bit later this season. We love Adam, but since his character is rumored to be Kurt's rival, we're not overly eager for his NYC arrival.
Are you psyched to see what Demi and Adam will bring to Glee Season 5, or are you partial to the original crew? Tell us your thoughts below!
Glee airs Thursday nights at 9 p.m. ET on FOX.

Despite only releasing the previous version a month or so ago, we decided to call this release Tarski 1.6 since there have been some fairly major changes. You can obsess over the details in the changelog as usual.
We've also fixed several bugs, including both a recently introduced one where the 'Author' field in the comments form was being filled by the author link of the last commenter, and a very long-standing one where comments display was screwed up for users of the 'Recent Articles' sidebar widget (many thanks to Peter Cawley for providing this and other fixes).
The new update notification system will hopefully pass unnoticed, as a seamless replacement for the old one. Essentially it's just an Atom feed, which Tarski checks whenever you visit the Dashboard or Tarski Options page (I may look into caching results for the next version). This is more secure, and allows the notification text to be translated—something that wasn't possible with the old system. Niels Leenheer's Feedparser does the heavy lifting.
1.5 translations have been frozen and the latest translations can be found in the translations trunk directory as usual. Just as a heads-up, this will probably be our last major release before WordPress 2.3 comes out. Enjoy the rest of your summer, and we'll see you in September for Tarski 1.7.
Bugs, suggestions and new translations to the forum please.

Last week, I wrote a post about the concept of Cities of Refuge as it was described in the book of Numbers. And now the concept has come up again in Deuteronomy 19.
When God repeats ideas in the Bible, they are important.
As I read the passage today, I thought, "This must be what heaven is all about." Heaven will not be filled with people who were perfect when they lived out their human lives on Earth.
Heaven will be filled with forgiven sinners.
We all need a city of refuge. We are all sinners. Most of us did not set out to do wrong. Even when we choose to disobey the law of God, we rarely started out wanting to do so. We make small, bad decisions that eventually lead us to bigger, even worse decisions that eventually lead us to some of the worst decisions out there.
And when we just cannot see our way out of the dust of bad, God – through Jesus – shines a light on our sin, exposes us for our sinfulness, and then reaches out a hand that offers forgiveness and refuge from doing wrong again.
Sometimes we walk into the light and grab on to God's hand. Other times, we turn away from Him – thinking that we do not need His forgiveness or that we do not deserve it (which we do not…).
What we choose does not define our level of need. We often know that we need Him and His forgiveness but cannot fathom how we can change, why we should, and if He really will forgive us.
I need a city of refuge.
I need to be surrounded by others who will remind me that God loves me, that He sent His son to die for me, and that He forgives me even though I do not deserve the forgiveness. I need those people to see me in a different light even though they know why I need that city of refuge.
Have you ever told someone about a past sin – expecting that person to reject you – and then have that person tell you that God loves you?
And has that person's eyes and face proven to you that he or she sees you in the forgiven state that you are now in because of what Christ did for you?
I have. It is amazing.
And when that person saw me the next time, she did not act differently toward me. And when she knew that I was struggling with forgiving myself, she encouraged me. She was a city of refuge for me.
Who do you know today that needs you to be a city of refuge? How can you do that? What changes might need to occur in your heart for that to happen?
May God tug at all of our hearts so that we can have open hearts, open minds, and open arms for all who need to see us – the Church – as a city of refuge.

i tried to do a little on-line research on this, even checking out sheldon brown's defintion, but i'm still a little unclear on this.
i know that just because i throw some moustache bars or chopped and flipped cruiser bars on a bike doesn't mean i get to run around calling it a scorcher, so what is it? tire size? brakes (or lack of, depending on whose definition you go with)? geometry? a brooks saddle?
and please, if you can, try not to reference the wright brothers in your answer. thank you.

Half of Scranton's $14M bond is fees, interest
Money is expensive when you don't have it.
That's particularly true for the city of Scranton, penalized for its lopsided balance sheet and recent default on Scranton Parking Authority bonds.
A closer look at a $14.1 million bond issue, details of which were announced at the Scranton City Council meeting Thursday, shows how dearly city taxpayers pay each time the city goes back to the bond market for financing. When all is said and done, at the end of the nine-year term of the $14.1 million bond issue, the city will have paid half that in interest and fees - about $7 million.
Here's how it breaks down:
Even before the city receives the $14.1 million, it has to pay $493,050 in fees and other costs. That works out to a 3.36 percent charge. As with any loan, the city has to pay interest - 7.25 percent per year over the nine-year term. That adds up to $6,493,375 in interest.
Interest and fees after the nine years is just a bit less than $7 million. The city is paying 50 cents for every dollar it gets. As the city uses new bonds to pay off old bonds, the fee and interest impact gets even larger as debt is extended over time and refinanced.
In an era of record low interest rates, 7.25 percent interest is a hard money rate.
The Federal Reserve Bank sets rates at zero. The average national rate for a 30-year mortgage is 3.32 percent and just 2.66 percent for a 15-year mortgage. Municipal bonds are viewed as lower risk by most investors and the rates are usually comparable to, or lower than, mortgage rates. The neighboring borough of Dunmore, for example, recently advertised a bond issue of 3.38 percent. The borough of Moosic recently advertised a bond issue for 2.4 percent.
The city's default and financial trouble has resulted in doubling interest rates. For this most recently borrowing, that's more than $3 million.
"That ain't cheap money. It's an awfully high rate," said Bert Ely, a financial institution adviser. He noted that tax-free municipal bonds issued for 10 years by AAA rate government pay 1.63 percent. "This is junk bond territory. But given Scranton's situation, that may be the best they can do."
The cost of raising money from bonds is much more expensive that a conventional loan most because of the consultants and people who need to be paid for the work, however routine.
Of the half million in fees, the lion's share, $150,000 goes to the financial adviser, FS&L.The primary bond counsel, Stevens & Lee, receive $105,000. Attorneys for the underwriters receive $70,000. City solicitor Paul Kelly will receive $15,000 and council solicitor Boyd Hughes will receive $22,500.

From: David Turner (dpturner_at_[hidden])
Date: 2010-03-01 03:42:06
Hi all,
Running on a large cluster of 8-core nodes. I understand
that the SM BTL is a "good thing". But I'm curious about
its use of memory-mapped files. I believe these files will
be in $TMPDIR, which defaults to /tmp.
In our cluster, the compute nodes are stateless, so /tmp
is actually in RAM. Keeping memory-mapped "files" in
memory seems kind of circular, although I know little
about these things. A bigger problem is that it appears
OMPI does not remove the files upon completion.
Another option is to redefine $TMPDIR to point to a
"real" file system. In our cluster, all the available
file systems are accessed over the IB fabric. So it
seems that there will be IB traffic, even though the
point of the SM BTL is to avoid this traffic.
Given the above two constraints, might it just be
better to disable the SM BTL entirely, and use the
IB BTL even within a node? Of course, the "self"
BTL should still be used if appropriate.
Any thoughts clarifying these issues would be
greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Best regards,
David Turner

UK Law
Ask an UK Law Question, Get an Answer ASAP!
Will the mortgage company not permit you to be jointly named on the mortgage and therefore also the joint owner on the title to the property?
The deed you are being asked to sign is essentially a statement that is required by all non-owning person who are to occupy a mortgaged property that they are not named on. It says that you understand that the mortgage company's interest in the property is the primary interest and that you understand that you will not be able to claim any interest in the property before them.
It does not mean that you cannot claim an interest at all, it just means that you are saying that your interest can only be claimed on the equity in the property after their charge. You would therefore be saying that you understand that you will not get your money back without their mortgage being paid of first.
If you are to live in the property you will have to sign it.
However, if you are contributing money to finance the purcahse then to secure this you should ask for a declaration of trust to be drawn up by the solicitor. This is a deed which would declare how the proceeds of sale are to be split. It can say that you should receive your contribution first, or that you and your husband should split the equity in the property in certain specified percentages. This will provide some security to you so that you wouldu receive your money when it is sold.
You can also ask that the deed is noted against the freehold title in the form of an agreed notice so that you will know when the property is to be sold.
If this is useful please kindly click accept so that I may be rewarded for my time. You will be free to ask follow up questions.
