HitGrab needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 94 designs submitted by 35 freelance designers.
RealStart seeks to enable disadvantaged young people from South Africa to move beyond the hopelessness of poverty and empower them to lead lives of meaning and purpose. Within South Africa a destructive post-matriculant void exists for the disadvantaged youth from our full racial spectrum. It is a void composed of almost inaccessible tertiary education and massive unemployment. The tragic consequences of this void are that these young people, many of whom have wonderful potential, are sucked into the hopeless spiral of unemployment and poverty with its many concomitant byproducts.
We are dedicated to building into the lives of young people and helping them overcome these employment obstacles
so they can live lives of meaning and purpose.
Unfortunately it's very broad. We need a logo that will click with our sponsors and yet still represent that we are essentially a youth focused organisation.
We would also like to be culturally aware so that the logo feels at home in Africa and overseas (where many of our donors will come from).
Our programme will target youth from across the full spectrum of races in South Africa.
Our organisation's descriptors - We are passionate about youth. Energetic. Visionary. Change agents. Professional. Caring. Creative. Fun.
We are looking for a logo that will reflect the nature of the work that we do - giving disadvantaged youth a real start in life. The message that the logo portrays is of primary importance.
The logo needs to be usable as a standalone accessory to fashion and design (t-shirts, caps, etc)
Simple, scalable, unique
Usable in black and white
Ridiculously, ridiculously good-looking
We are open to different directions ito look and feel.
We are launching with our first students in 2011 and the logo will direct our future design elements.

Following steps will make sure you're working with up-to-date package lists, as if you ran
pacman -Sy.
On home PC , do the following as root:
mkdir -p /var/lib/pacman/sync/{core,extra,community} rm -r /var/lib/pacman/sync/{core,extra,community}/* tar -xzf core.db.tar.gz -C /var/lib/pacman/sync/core tar -xzf extra.db.tar.gz -C /var/lib/pacman/sync/extra tar -xzf community.db.tar.gz -C /var/lib/pacman/sync/community tar -xzf multilib.db.tar.gz -C /var/lib/pacman/sync/multilib rm -r /var/lib/pacman/sync/*.db cp core.db /var/lib/pacman/sync/ cp extra.db /var/lib/pacman/sync/ cp community /var/lib/pacman/sync/
pacman -Sp --noconfirm package-name > pkglist
error: no database for package: package-name
To update a New Arch Linux base system after installation you may enter
pacman -Sup --noconfirm > pkglist
Now open that textfile with an editor and delete all lines that are not URLs. Next, bring that list with you to a place where you have internet and either download the listed packages manually or do
wget -nv -i ../pkglist
in an empty directory. Take all the *.pkg.tar.gz files back home, put them in /var/cache/pacman/pkg and finally run
pacman -S package-name
A slightly contrived example
Scenario: you have two Archlinux machines, 'Al' (with internet connection) and 'Bob' (without internet connection), and you need to install some nvidia packages and their dependencies on 'Bob'. Let's say the wanted packages are nvidia, nvidia-utils and xf86-video-nouveau, but you want to use a dedicated directory instead of /var/cache/pacman/pkg/ and a dedicated repository called nvidia (instead of the usual core, extra etc...)
Generate a list of packages to download
This can be done on any Archlinux machine which has up-to-date repository data bases (see above for links to database files); to create the list of links to the required packages, use:
pacman -Sp nvidia nvidia-utils xf86-video-nouveau > /path/to/nvidia.list
The file nvidia.list will contain links to the listed packages and any others which they depend on.
Download the packages and their dependencies
Obviously this requires an internet connection, so on 'Al' create a directory called /path/to/nvidia for the files and run:
wget -P /path/to/nvidia/ -i /path/to/nvidia.list
Create a repository database just for these packages
This can be done on either 'Al' or 'Bob' using the repo-add command which comes with pacman (from version 3?); first, change to the /path/to/nvidia directory where the packages were downloaded, then create database file called nvidia.db.tar.gz:
cd /path/to/nvidia repo-add nvidia.db.tar.gz *.pkg.tar.gz
Transfer the packages
Now all the packages have been downloaded, you do not need 'Al' anymore. Copy the contents of /path/to/nvidia to a the temporary nvidia packages cache directory on 'Bob', let's say this folder is called /home/me/nvidia:
cp /path/to/nvidia/* /home/me/nvidia
Next, pacman must be made aware of this new repository of packages; simply add the following lines at the bottom of your existing pacman.conf:
[nvidia] Server = file:///home/me/nvidia
Now, instruct pacman to synchronise with the dedicated nvidia repository we created:
pacman -Sy
This command finds the nvidia.db.tar.gz file in /home/me/nvidia and expands it to /var/lib/pacman/sync/nvidia to create a database of packages contained in the nvidia repository.
Install the packages
Finally install the packages:
pacman -S nvidia nvidia-utils xf86-video nouveau

Simpler Method: Powerpill Portable
Powerpill Portable is a tool created by Xyne to simplify offline updates. It has the following requirements:
Unconnected Computer
- powerpill
- rsync
Connected Computer
- perl
- aria2
The connected computer does not need to be running Arch or have Pacman installed.
An enumerated list of steps can be found here.
Basically, simply download the Powerpill Portable script and run it on the unconnected computer. It will create a directory named "portable" and copy some files into it (the local database and everything needed to run powerpill-portable on another system, minus perl itself and aria2). Simply take the directory to the connected computer (e.g. on a USB stick) and run the "pp" script in it on that system as though it were pacman, e.g. "pp -Syu foo bar". It will download the databases and packages into the portable directory. When you're done, bring the directory back to your unconnected computer, run the "sync" script in the portable directory, then simply run the same command(s) that you ran with pp using pacman, e.g. "pacman -Syu foo bar".
Your system is now up-to-date. Simply repeat the steps to keep it that way.

Diana Rodriguez brought her two kids and family to meet with their police officers and spend the evening in the park.
"They had fun," Rodriguez said. "We got to meet the whole precinct and the community, and that's important because they show their face and that they actually care about the community."
104th Precinct Captain Christopher Manson was on hand, along with several members of his police force, at his first National Night Out with the precinct.
"We have a very strong community in this precinct, and it just shows by the amount of cooperation from the community to put this all together," Manson said.
In addition to a strong police presence at the park, Councilwoman Elizabeth Crowley was there with a number of elected officials, members of the Community Board 5, 104th Precinct Community Council and others.
Assemblyman Mike Miller commended the precinct for taking part in the annual event.
"This is a great day," Miller said. "It's one night where they can get the community out together as a whole and just hang out together, talk about issues with the precinct and talk about how to prevent crime and domestic violence."
Tom Bornemann of the Ridgewood Democratic Club and a board member with the 104th Precinct Community Council, said the most important part of the event was to make sure everyone was having fun.
"We're just coming to check things out and make sure everyone's having a good time," Bornemann said.
Members of the 104th Civilian Observation Patrol (G-Cop) and the Volunteer Ambulance Corps joined the festivities, along with event sponsors and organizers like the Glendale Kiwanis Club and the Myrtle Avenue Improvement District.
"I think it's a great opportunity for awareness for what police do for the community and for us to jointly work together to fight crime," said Theodore Renz, president of the Myrtle Avenue BID.
Assemblywoman Marge Markey said while the neighborhood has good police at the 104th Precinct, events like the National Night Out help spread crime prevention awareness.
"Besides the fun games and all that, I think it's about a sense of community," Markey said. "Looking out for each other and protecting each other, and I think that's really the essence of this."

Confidence among U.S. consumers unexpectedly increased in August as Americans grew more optimistic about the prospects for the world's largest economy.
The Conference Board's index of sentiment advanced to 81.5 from a revised 81 the prior month that was stronger than initially estimated, the New York-based private research group reported today. The median forecast in a Bloomberg survey of economists was 79.
Sustained job growth and increased wealth tied to higher home values and stock portfolios are helping to sustain the household spending, boosting automakers and home-improvement retailers such as Lowe's Cos. Today's report showed more Americans expected a pickup in employment opportunities and income gains in the next six months.
"The household sector is still improving and a lot of that improvement comes from home prices," said Sam Coffin, an economist at UBS Securities LLC in Stamford, Connecticut. UBS Securities is the top forecaster of the Conference Board's index in the last two years, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
Estimates for consumer confidence ranged from 74.3 to 82 in the Bloomberg survey of 71 economists after an initial July reading of 80.3. The measure averaged 53.7 during the recession that ended in June 2009. The cutoff date for the Conference Board's survey was Aug. 15.
Stocks held losses on growing tension over possible military action in Syria. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index dropped 0.8% to 1,643.03 at 10:13 a.m. in New York.
Home Prices
Another report today showed home prices increased at a slower pace in June. The S&P/Case-Shiller index of property values advanced 12.1% from the same month in 2012 after rising 12.2% in the year ended in May, the biggest gain since March 2006.
The Conference Board's measure of expectations for the next six months rose to 88.7 from 86. The gauge of present conditions decreased to 70.7 this month from 73.6 in July.
The share of Americans expecting business conditions to improve rose to 20.1% this month from 19.9%.
The% of respondents expecting jobs to become more available in the next six months climbed to 17.6 from 16.7.
The share of those who say jobs are currently hard to get decreased to 33%, the lowest since September 2008, from 35.2%. The difference in the shares of those saying employment opportunities are currently plentiful and people indicating positions are hard to get was the narrowest since September 2008.

Cut & Paste Remember Text field values
Description: Certain form fields always contain the same values, such as your user's name, email address fields etc. This script will remember the values entered into these fields, and automatically fill out these fields the next time the user returns. It uses cookies to persist the values for 60 days (changeable). For "Contact Us" or "Tell a Friend" forms that are filled out repeatedly by a user, this can save them a lot of time!
This script can only remember the values of text fields (INPUT TYPE="text"), and not TEXTAREA, for example, since a cookie cannot store vast amounts of info.
Example: The first two fields' values will be remembered when you submit the form (try reloading the page afterwards).
Step 1: Cut and paste the below script into the  section of your page:
Step 2: With the script installed, simply modify your form with the parts in red:
<form onSubmit="rememberinput('yourname', 'youremail')"> Name:*
<input type="text" id="yourname" size="25" />
 Email Address:*
<input type="text" id="youremail" size="25" />
 Feedback:
 <textarea cols="25" rows="6"></textarea>
 <input type="submit" value="Submit" /> </form>
where "yourname", "youremail" etc are the IDs of the form input fields that you wish to remember. Enter as many fields as you wish (separated by a comma), though as mentioned, only text fields are allowed.

Although we love simple grilled chicken with our favorite tangy barbecue sauce and can't get enough tandoori chicken, we wanted to do something different (grilling burnout before Memorial Day is not cool). Mike decided on jerk style, and I remembered seeing the F&W recipe a few days before. Easy.
We modified the recipe slightly (it actually calls for pork tenderloin), so I'm writing it as we did it. We used bone-in, skin-off chicken breasts and leg quarters, which we tend to like on the grill. But we also had an extra boneless skinless breast, so we cut it into chunks and skewered it. I was really surprised that my favorite cut was the boneless breast--probably because the small chunks got covered in more marinade relative to their size and cooked quickly, staying moist and tender. If you're looking for something different for grilling over the long weekend, this is it!
Grilled Jerk Chicken
Adapted from Food & Wine
You can also use bone-in chicken breasts and/or leg quarters. Remove the skin before marinating so the flavor goes straight on the meat.
Serves 4
1/4 cup safflower or canola oil
2 scallions, sliced
2 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
2 habanero chiles, seeded and chopped
1 Tbs low-sodium soy sauce
1 Tbs lime juice
1 Tbs light brown sugar
2 tsp ground allspice
1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1/4 tsp freshly grated nutmeg (pre-ground is okay)
1-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and roughly chopped
1 1/2 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into 1 1/4-inch chunks
Salt to taste
In a blender, combine all ingredients through ginger and puree. Place chicken in a large zip top bag and add marinade. Refrigerate 3 to 4 hours, shifting and turning the bag once or twice.
Brush the grill rack with oil and light the grill. Thread the chicken onto metal skewers and season with salt. Cook over medium-high heat until outside of chicken is browned on both sides. Move skewers over indirect heat, cover grill and cook until chicken is no long pink in the center. Serve right away.

Marion's first Cannes
Marion Cotillard has been to Cannes, obviously. But she's never been to Cannes with a film in competition. Marcel was born last year during Cannes when Midnight In Paris was presented. She's here now for Jacques Audiard's De Rouille et d'os (Rust & Bone). The screening was this morning at 8:30am and I suck because I could not get my ass out of bed for it. So far they're saying it's amazing, awful, boring, moving, terrifying, and heartfelt. So, you know, the critics they agree.
Here she is last night arriving for an appearance on Le Grand Journal in a lovely white blouse and a splashy red Chanel bag and this morning at the photo call in peach and yellow - I love it so much on her. I walked by her on my way to the press lounge and I'm telling you, there is barely any makeup happening here. She'll have more of it on tonight on the carpet but in the day time, it's pretty natural and it's pretty breathtaking. Is it weird that I tried to smell her? Something lovely and fragrant hit my nose when she passed but I wasn't totally sure if it was coming from her and I tried to follow-sniff a few paces before turning back around because security was looking at me strange.
As for whether or not Guillaume Canet will be joining her here - I suspect not. Didn't see pictures of the baby with her when she landed and they've been in New York shooting Blood Ties for a couple of weeks now. Given that he's directing, I'd assume they'd continue with production without her and that she'll return as soon as she can. Three years ago Laura, Mio, and I had dinner at the Eden Roc while they were there together, savouring their food and drinking their wine like only a gorgeous French couple can. (Click here for a refresher. That story always gets lost because that was the same night Emile Hirsch lectured Robert Pattinson on the terrace at the du Cap.) Not that I wouldn't want to see that again - Marion and Guillaume, I mean - but considering the circumstances, I wonder if that's unlikely now.

Chromecast: Big Threats Come in Small Packages?
Jul 26, 2013 5:00 AM PT
Google shook up the streaming video world Wednesday when it introduced a US$35 HDMI dongle that allows content to be airmailed from a smartphone, tablet or laptop to a TV.
Called "Chromecast," the unit is already being hailed as a potential streaming set-top box killer.
"It could make the set-top box obsolete," Rob Enderle, president and principal analyst with the Enderle Group, told MacNewsWorld. "It makes the set-top box redundant."
Chromecast lets you connect any TV with an HDMI port with any Android or iOS device, as well as with Google's Chrome browser on a Windows PC or Mac.
Content sent to your TV through Chromecast can be controlled from the device that's "casting" it. You can perform tasks like play and pause content, as well as control the volume of your set. All the while, you can perform other tasks on your device, such as sending email or surfing the Web.
Better TV Interface
Initially, Chromecast will support content from NetFlix and YouTube, as well as movies, TV shows and music from the Google Play store. More content, including the Pandora streaming music service, is expected to be added to the dongle's portfolio.
Chromecast addresses three crying needs in the market, according to Ross Rubin, principal analyst with Reticle Research, a consumer technology advisory firm. Those needs are price, simplicity and size.
"At $35, it's a about a third of what Apple TV costs and significantly less than the basic Roku device," Rubin told MacNewsWorld.
By pricing the device at $35, he continued, cost becomes a non-issue -- not only for one TV but for multiple TVs.
"A problem with devices today that let you stream sources like Netflix is that their interfaces are awkward," Rubin explained. "By using a smartphone, tablet or even a PC with Chromecast, you get to take advantage of the excellent user interface designs that have gone into those devices."
The drawback to that approach, he added, is you have to have one of those devices at hand, while Roku and the like have their own remotes.
Size Matters
Size and portability are also wanting in the market, Rubin continued.
"As small as Roku and Apple TV have become, they're really not pocket-friendly," he continued. "Chromecast is so small you can unplug it from the TV and take it with you when you travel."
While some industry watchers were quick to write epitaphs for set-top streamers after the Chromecast announcement, the device need not be an Apple TV or Roku killer.
"I don't see this necessarily taking share from the market leaders," Jonathan Hurd, a director at the strategy consulting firm Altman Vilandrie, told MacNewsWorld.
"Chromecast is simply about getting video to the TV," he said. "The others have additional value for consumers."
There Will Be Blood
Existing products in the market will feel the impact of Chromecast, said Brett L. Sappington, director of research at Parks Associates.
"Apple TV and Roku will become a little less valuable to consumers because there's a new alternative in the market now," he said. "Any time there's a new alternative, it dilutes the value of the things already in the market."
What Apple TV and Roku have going for them is that they aggregate content, Sappington continued. "Chromecast doesn't aggregate anything. It's just a connection technology."
Chromecast's appeal to consumers is questionable at best, suggested Roku Founder and CEO Anthony Wood.
"There are many of these dongles out in the market, but so far they have not gained consumer adoption because they offer limited content choices and are awkward to use for a variety of reasons," Wood told MacNewsWorld.
"For just $15 more than these dongles -- so for $49 -- consumers can get a Roku player," he pointed out, "which offers a complete streaming experience that provides access to an easy-to-use and made-for-TV UI, nearly 1,000 video and music channels, and many features like content search."
Apple did not respond to a request for comment for this story.

Welcome Home, SAFES
Portland Housing Bureau Director Traci Manning and PHB staff helped welcome the Salvation Army Female Emergency Shelter (SAFES) into its new home yesterday. SAFES staff held a celebration for its return to a beautifully renovated Harbor Light Center. The space provides shelter for more than 50 women each night.
The Portland Housing Bureau is proud to partner with SAFES, which is a critical part of the Safety Net. SAFES operates roughly one third of our city's emergency shelter for women experiencing homelessness.
Mayor Charlie Hales and the Portland City Council demonstrated their commitment to SAFES. In the face of very difficult City budgeting choices, Mayor Hales has proposed a budget that provides ongoing funding for this and other crucial safety net services.
On any given night, more than 780 women are homeless in Multnomah County and these women are subject to unique risks. Thirty-five percent of homeless women surveyed in our one-night count of homelessness reported being affected by domestic violence. We believe that is a significant undercount. National studies indicate that a significant percentage of homeless women have experienced domestic or sexual violence at some point in their lives. Up to half of homeless women say that domestic or sexual violence was an immediate cause of their homelessness. Women of color are particularly vulnerable. They are over represented on the street.
SAFES is sheltering and providing support services for some of our city's most vulnerable citizens. Their work, in partnership with the City of Portland, has helped to move SAFES from solely providing shelter—in itself, an important goal—to also preventing and ending homelessness with rapid rehousing.
Living in a home is the foundation to safety and stability for all vulnerable Portlanders. We welcome SAFES into a new home and know it will lead to new homes for the women it serves.

LONDON, Feb. 18 (UPI) -- The government of Chad isn't living up to its obligations regarding an arrest warrant for Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir, the British government said.
Bashir visited Chad last weekend for a meeting of Sahel and Saharan African leaders.
British Foreign Minister for Africa Mark Simmonds expressed frustration that Bashir wasn't arrested by Chadian officials during the visit. Chad is a party to the Rome Statute that created the International Criminal Court.
The ICC in 2009 issued an arrest warrant for Bashir on war crimes charges related to the situation in Darfur.
"This will be the third time the government of Chad has failed to implement warrants issued by the ICC for war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide," Simmonds said.
"We expect all states parties to the ICC to comply with their obligations and, indeed, all states should cooperate with ICC investigations as set out in relevant U.N. Security Council Resolution."

Matthew & Chloe's Corset Factory
Who Lives Here: Matthew & Chloe, Prof. Horace McGillicuddy III (Cat)
Location: Bridgeport, Connecticut
Size: 1150 square feet What is your one favorite element in your small, cool home? The original floors. They have so much character and show wear from the locations of the sewing machine pedals from back when the building was a corset factory. This and of course all
What was one of the biggest challenges you faced in furnishing your small home? Wall scale and open floor space were huge hurdles and still remain the most difficult issues to tackle. Without the budget for custom millwork, lots of fancy wall coverings, etc. we turned to sites like etsy.com for art/prints and used blogs (apartment therapy included) to inspire composition. The result, we think, really represents our personalities — "happy minimal hodge podge".

Why I Attach Media To Events
2 comments:
I'm still getting to know RootsMagic. Having read this post I can see the importance of attaching media to individuals and events. Can you tell us how you organize and file your images/media? It seems like that system would have to be decided upon and firmly in place before attaching because if one changes the system, it would mess up the attachment, right?ReplyDeleteReplies
As I understand it, RootsMagic 'stores' a link in the database to the media file on your computer hard drive. If you move a file on your hard, the link is broken. However, RootsMagic has a fix. When you open the media gallery under the 'Lists' tab and then click on the 'Tools' box, you can click on 'Fix broken media links' and the software will scan your hard rive to find the image/media file and establish the link to the new file location. If you have a lot of media files, this might take some time but it is a pretty good and easy solution. Ian

I am a professor at Slippery Rock University, where I have taught for over 25 years. I feel fortunate to have been associated with a university for most of my professional career that has always put students first and always believed in demonstrating excellence. I also have two school-aged children.
Due to unprecedented budget cuts by Gov. Tom Corbett, the quality of education in Pennsylvania in both K-12 and the State System of Higher Education is being severely compromised. In many educational institutions, we have seen programs cut, teachers furloughed and retrenched, and class sizes increased.
These practices certainly do not have grade school or college students' best interests at heart, or the taxpayers who support public education and families who sacrifice so much to pay for a college education.
We know that budget cuts are a reality of our time, and Slippery Rock University has done better than most universities in the State System at belt-tightening and increasing efficiency. However, have our legislators done all that they can to grow revenue for our state?
While our educational systems are imploding, it seems that all possible and additional sources of revenue must be utilized, possibly beginning with taxing the natural gas industry the same way that every other state taxes the industry, and has resulted in millions of dollars in revenue for those states.
When we have state universities cutting essential faculty and staff and discontinuing important programs, and we have local elementary schools with overcrowded classrooms forced to put gas wells 700 feet from school children in order to generate revenue, the citizens of Pennsylvania must insist that all legislators make funding education a priority.
By all accounts, funding for education in many other states is on the upswing. Pennsylvania cannot afford to lag behind. Our students and their families deserve better.

'Glee' Takes On Britney Spears' Breakdown in 'Britney 2.0'
In this second Britney Spears focused 'Glee' episode of the series, Brittany S. Pierce (Heather Morris) attempts to get her place back in the spotlight by using tactics gleaned from her idol. Relying on the character's trademark ditziness and a parody of the pop-star's tabloid antics, this episode explores the public persona of Britney.
Brittany plays up the antics of Britney Spears circa 2007, from shaving her head to attacking paparazzi in an anger fueled rage as a passerby yells out, "Leave Brittany alone!" Further in the episode, Brittany lip syncs and botches her pep rally performance, wearing a replica of the outfit Britney wore in her much talked about VMA performance of 'Gimme More.'
As we later learn through her conversation with Sam (Chord Overstreet), Brittany is not going insane because of depression. Instead, everything she did was part of a calculated attempt to earn a comeback like her pop-counterpart, who turned her career around and scored a spot on the 'X Factor.'
Of course, Brittany is not the only character who lets out her inner Britney (Rachel, played by Lea Michele, uses the pop star's persona to show off her own sexuality), but she certainly does it best. Who knew the comic relief character had such a cunning plan in her?

Eve C necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 62 diseños de 21 diseñadores freelance.
Hi there!
I'm a holistic nutritionist specializing in natural foods education. I'm on a mission to end obesity and help people regain their health and live happier lives :) Yay!
My aim is to create an AWESOME information site where people can really gain access to high quality articles, videos and other tools they can use to begin getting life back on track and taking the step they need to really improve their health.
My target audience is educated, professional women ages 20-60 who are overweight and seriously low on energy.
I have attached a few examples of EXACTLY what I'm looking for. Please be sure to look so you can save yourself a lot of time.
My logo needs to look like it could be the sister publication to any major newspaper (think Wall Street Times, Washington Post, etc.) so think: PROFESSIONAL PUBLICATION.
However, as you can see in the two attached examples for "Metropolitan Minute" the designer took a great professional, newsprint-looking font then added the faint cityscape in the background! AWESOME--Just what I'm looking for--except it needs to be something related to weight loss....
In the other two examples for "Hometown News" and "Florida Today" the designer used a bird for the "H" and in a solar looking thing for the "O". I like this concept too. So if you have some creative idea around it that's cool.
I'm considering adding the tagline: Lose Weight, Not Energy so if you want to include that, I think that would be good.
Things I like: Black and Red colors, crisp, bold fonts, easy to read...
Things I don't like: Nothing "cute" or "trying to be funny", no images of snoring people, again I really want it to be as professional and look newsworthy and as credible as possible.
Thanks so much and please let me know if you have any questions!
P.S.-- I'm planning to redo the entire site to be more information based, so what I have up now is not what the new design will be like at all...

The Duo 4qt Pressure Cooker from Fagor will cut down on the amount of time spent in the kitchen without sacrificing the quality of a meal. The Cooker has 2 pressure setting options for preparing a meal which can reduce cook times by as much as 70%. An easy-to-use dial on the handle gives users the option to select from low pressure (8psi) or high pressure (15psi) cooking and an included recipe book outlines suggested cook times and levels. Another benefit to using a Pressure Cooker is that it retains valuable water-soluble vitamins and minerals that are routinely lost in the steam during regular cooking. A Pressure Cooker also does not require oil for cooking and will maintain the meals natural colors and not allow any of the flavors to escape. Convenience is a big benefit with the Duo Pressure Cooker as well because it is not restricted in the types of cooking surfaces it can be used on. This Pressure Cooker can be used with gas, electric, ceramic and even induction cooktops. The Duo Pressure Cooker also comes with a stainless steel basket for steaming food to allow for as much cooking versatility as possible.
This Pressure Cooker has a stainless steel construction to allow for even heat distribution and easy cleaning by hand or dishwasher. The ergonomic handle has an automatic pressure release plus a visual indicator to let the user know the current pressure. It is important to be aware of the pressure indicator and ensure all pressure has been released prior to unlocking and opening the lid. For added precaution the handle has a safety lock to prevent accidental opening of the lid under pressure.

A Positive Reflection
Joan Brady gives foster children needed exposure.
On Monday, Sept. 10, 2001, Joan Brady of Great Falls had just started a three-month sabbatical from her job with an Internet company. Newly-married, Brady, who was 36 years old at the time, was exhausted from 80-hour work weeks in a rigid corporate environment. She wanted time that fall to contemplate what to do next with her life. The next day provided answers and a sense of urgency. It was Tuesday, Sept. 11, 2001. The terrorist attacks, and the moving stories of heroism and tragedy on 9/11, indelibly left their mark. Brady, like many Americans, was inspired to do something new, to take more chances, to change direction.

Flooding the House
Heaven knows, as soon as your house if full of water, it's only a matter of two or three minutes before sharks show up. And despite what shark experts keep telling me, sharks ARE mindless, eating machines.
Now that I think about it, though, it's not just incoming sharks that sour me on this idea. I've just realized that a small portion of my house-pool would inevitably be made up of at least some percentage of toilet water. So if it weren't for sharks and toilet water, this would be an excellent idea. But as reality stands, I don't think I'll flood my house on purpose... probably.

I love this picture! Sharks and toilet water are definitely a bad combination. Always remember though that all of that moisture must dry out or else you'll end up with a house that looks like the cheese that's been sitting in my fridge for way too long.

I actually filled my basement with water once when I was a kid. Somehow I got my 3 year old brother to take the garden hose and put it through the window. The idea was that I would get to have fun playing with my boats on the basement floor while putting the blame on my little brother. It was fun, and I found out our house wasn't level. One end of the basement was two feet deep (the fun end), while the other was only about an inch deep. I really hope that I never have any creative children.

I see this a common childhood fantasy (with some even trying to do it or some close proximity to it) - now made even better with a visualization. I don't think I ever got as far as worrying about sharks and toilet water and mostly, my biggest concern was about getting all my stuff wet.

Funny post and picture. I think I imagined filling the house with water too, but for me it was a nightmare because I couldn't swim and was terrified of water (I always told my mom I wanted to be a shark when I grew up, but I screamed when she tried to put me into the bathtub. Go figure).

Oh my crud...I can totally see my Kaden doing this..."just to see what it would be like." I love how kids think. Sometimes I tend to think just like they do...as you do in this entry. People usually just laugh when you "wonder" about things. Having a little boy has definitely kept me on my toes. I now know exactly how many seconds I have from the time the bathroom faucet goes on, to the moment it begins to overflow. LOL! I wish I was kidding. It would help if our bathroom sinks had the little draining hole thingey. Who the HECK decided that it would be a good idea to even MAKE a sink without a draining hole?! Dumb. Wish we would have caught that earlier...would have saved us a lot of mopping. LOL! Anyway...love this entry and the drawing...those puffed cheeks are so cute. LOL!

hehe, nice picture. I love the way you've captured the floating.
As for visions of rooms full of water, it was my childhood's dream, too. I didn't even think about toilet water or sharks, I was just afraid that our flat is not water-tight enough, otherwise it would have been brilliant idea :)

Spring Essentials
The Jerusalem artichoke is a type of sunflower (Helianthus tuberosus) that produces edible tubers. These plants grow readily throughout the United States. However, the plant is better adapted to the northern two-thirds of the country rather than the southern third. Jerusalem artichokes or "sunchokes" as they are sometimes called, is one of the easiest edibles to grow. Often used for pickling purposes. Fresh tuber tastes like a water chestnut and is used in salads. Tubers can also be cooked like potatoes. Jerusalem artichokes are often eaten by diabetics since they contain inulin instead of starch and can be used in any recipe calling for potatoes.

Lyrics: Bobby Charles (Robert Guidry)
Music: Bobby Charles (Robert Guidry)
Performed a couple of times by Reconstruction, with Merle on lead vocals and Jerry on guitar. The song is also known--wrongly--under the title "I'm The Jealous Guy." Thanks to Matt Schofield for the lyrics.
Girl, don't be angry if I seem rude
Each time we meet
A boy that you once knew
[??] just to be so close to you
It's just that I'm so afraid
Someone might steal you away, I'd lose my mind
So please forgive me for the way I act sometimes
I'm the jealous kind
If you only knew where I lived
And didn't mind
[?] can't you see [??]
That I'm losing my mind
I want you all to myself
I don't want you shackin' with nobody else
I can't help it if it's the way I act sometimes
Because I'm the jealous kind
You know I love you girl
Just one more thing now,If you only knew
How much it hurts me just to hear you say
How, when we first met
I can't think that those were the good old days
Why must you hurt me so
I can't stand it no more, I'm tryin'
So please, I can't control these tears in my eyes
Lord I'm the jealous kind
I love you baby
You know you've got me baby
You know I'm the jealous kind

Kunga Choden Talks About Caves with Fifth Gradersby Wade Coggeshall • September 12, 2006 Share:
Fifth-grade students at Laura Hose Elementary got a crash course in caves Tuesday morning.
Kunga Choden, a Wabash College sophomore majoring in biology, spent part of his summer researching commercial caves in Southern Indiana. The study was made in conjunction with Present Indiana, a program funded by the Lilly Endowment where students study the cultural and natural wonders of the state. Wabash students undertook eight other projects this summer under the same umbrella, including studies on Hoosier-born author Kurt Vonnegut and Indiana's historic covered bridges.
As a youth, Choden spent a lot of time exploring the wild caves in his native India. There were many in the mountains near his school. Students would use them to form study groups, and often encountered animals in them such as wolves.
Exploring the limestone caves of Southern Indiana seemed a natural project for him to tackle. His PowerPoint presentation to three fifth-grade Hose classrooms helped prepare those students for the class' annual field trip Sept. 27-29 to McCormick's Creek in Spencer, Ind. It's a trip Isabel Arvin started in 1967.
The fifth-graders will tour Wolf Cave, which is much smaller than the sprawling underground caverns of Southern Indiana. Many parts of Wolf Cave require its visitors to crawl on their hands and knees.
The caves Choden toured were Blue Springs Cavern in Bedford, Wyandotte Cave near Leavenworth, Marengo Cave and Squire Boone Caverns. Blue Springs has arguably one of the country's largest underground rivers. Marengo, discovered in 1883 by a brother and sister, is considered a national landmark.
Students learned a clever way to remember a stalactite, which is an icicle-shaped mineral deposit that hangs from cave ceilings. Choden said it hangs "tite," one of many cave formations molded over thousands of years. The oil from skin can stop the growth of such formations by changing its structure. Discussion of one such formation, cave bacon, named for its curvy resemblance to bacon, elicited a smattering of chuckles in each classroom.
Other interesting facts included types of animals commonly found in caves, including millipedes and crawfish. The fish have no eyes and are albino because it's completely dark. Longer appendages and keener senses substitute. Choden had to dispel the myth that bats are evil, bloodsucking vampires. They're actually quite useful in regards to eating mosquitoes. Their population, however, is dwindling enough to consider them endangered.
More than just a science lesson on caves, Choden used his presentation for a social lesson too. The bat population is decreasing in part because of pollution. That extends to our underground water supply.
"There's a hundred times more water in the ground than in all the world's rivers and lakes," Choden said. "Caves must be preserved to help scientists study past environments and climatic change."
There's also the archeological significance. Native Americans explored and lived in caves, leaving behind writings, drawings and other artifacts. Even though most of the students raised their hands when Choden asked if they had ever been in a cave, he said much remains to learn about these unusual structures beneath the earth's surface.
"Caves," he said, "are the last human frontier left to explore."
Coggeshall is a reporter for the Crawfordsville Journal Review.

August 29, 2006
In what one international fraternity chief executive called "an extraordinary opportunity," Wabash College hosted a two-day colloquium that brought together college administrators and fraternity executives to discuss mutual challenges and opportunities.
Based on the assumption that international fraternity chief executives and college presidents share a common goal of educating men while developing them as leaders and responsible citizens, Wabash boldly invited the CEOs of the 10 fraternities who have chapters at Wabash to attend the event. Six CEOs came to campus to work with four college presidents and Wabash's dean of students' office to develop common ground.
"This is extraordinary for leaders of national fraternities to get together with college administrators to talk about the opportunities we have to collaborate to reach our common goals," said Bill Martin, the chief executive officer of Phi Gamma Delta International who moderated the discussions (pictured).
Attending the colloquium were Jim Russell from Delta Tau Delta, Shawn Collingsworth from Phi Kappa Psi, Kevin Mayeaux from Tau Kappa Epsilon, Bob Biggs from Phi Delta Theta, and Martin.
Wabash alumnus and trustee Ted Grossnickle also participated. Grossnickle brought the perspective of having served his fraternity, Lambda Chi Alpha, in a leadership capacity, while also having served as president at Franklin College.
"We're natural partners, natural allies," said Grossnickle. "The national fraternity CEOs are very interested in engaging in dialogue with college presidents to see if they're seeing the same things — the same challenges and opportunities."
Wabash's fraternity colloquium seems like a natural outgrowth for a college steeped in fraternity history. Yet there was consensus that Monday and Tuesday's gathering might have marked the first time senior administrators of colleges and national fraternities have come together focused entirely on positive outcomes. "If this is not unique, it's extraordinarily rare," said Grossnickle.
"Our challenge is to think about how we work together to develop young men to be the best version of themselves they can imagine," said Wabash Dean of Students Tom Bambrey. "That's a significant challenge, and I think fraternities and colleges can be partners in that pursuit."
Wabash, which has been home to national fraternities since the 1840s, realizes many of the aspects of the college's culture are similar to the mission and goals of national fraternities. The Gentleman's Rule was a big topic of conversation at the colloquium.
"I've learned more about the Gentleman's Rule, which is an approach to encouraging right behavior," said Fiji's Martin. The Gentleman's Rule is aspirational; it's set up as an ideal that men or people can aspire to, as opposed to setting boundaries, which can be limiting."
Wabash President Pat White found himself to be the rookie in the group of college and fraternity veterans. "It's become really clear (over the two days) that if we can improve the development of fraternity leaders, they can have a positive benefit to the college. Fraternities have a huge history of developing leadership in young men. At Wabash, that's our history. It's a completely natural partnership."
One of the goals of the colloquium was to have discourse on the ways in which college administrators and international fraternity leaders can achieve mutually beneficial goals. What Martin and the others hope to produce from the conversations is a "tool kit," which Martin describes as a handbook for college presidents. The handbook will include basic contact information, but also a thorough description of each fraternity's history, culture, mission, and goals.
"As we envision it, the handbook would be useful for a president to be able to talk with some knowledge about the mission and goals of the fraternities," said Martin. "That would show the students that the administration cares about helping the students achieve their individual goals.
"We'd like to come out of this with an outline for a notebook that would be transferable to any campus on which fraternities exist," said Martin.
"Wabash does a good job developing leaders," said Hanover College President Russell Nichols. "We came into this thinking, 'if it can be done at Wabash, perhaps we can make it transportable to other colleges.'"
There was overwhelming sentiment that the two-day discussion was productive and transferable to other institutions. "The discourse has been valuable and needs to keep going into the future for the benefit of our students," said President White.
Nichols, himself a Wabash alumnus, sees the benefits of the colloquium in two ways:
"We can expand the discourse both outwardly and inwardly," he said. "On the inside, we will look to Wabash alumni and student leadership to help work out the details about how best to achieve the mission of the fraternity and the college."
Wabash appears to be ahead of the curve in its partnerships with its undergraduate chapters, their alumni advisors, and international fraternity leadership.
First came the Campaign for Leadership's visionary Fraternity Partnership, a 10-year effort to involve alumni in the renovation of new construction of chapter houses on the Wabash campus. Additionally, the Dean of Students' office now sponsors a day-long training sessions geared for fraternity leadership and resident advisors. The Housing Education and Leadership Program gives undergraduates the opportunity to interact with college staff and administrators. The Deans' Office also facilitates twice-a-year meetings with chapter advisors of the 10 fraternities with houses on campus.
The conversation with college administrators and fraternity CEOs is yet another step in strengthening Wabash's Greek system.
"We'll be able to take some of what we've talked about to the alumni chapter advisors and make those relationships stronger," said Dean Bambrey. "Being in a room for two days with fraternity CEOs has been beneficial — we know these relationships will be helpful down the road as we address our challenges and pursue our mutually beneficial opportunities."
