IRON Medical Systems
We are a TECHNOLOGY company that provides Computer, Technology, and Datacenter Hosting services to the medical industry. We are not actually medical providers.
IRON Medical Systems eliminates the burden of technology management for medical professionals and provides it as a service. Hardware costs are eliminated. Applications are always available, upgraded and supported. Data is protected, stored and accessible for billing or compliance needs. Doctors can focus on patient care, business operations and growing their practice.
We are located in a world-class datacenter with tremendous amounts of security and redundancy to protect the data.
We are a small, agile company, always looking to provide the best cost for performance, no matter what size the medical practice is. We service medical offices all over the country, and are planning to move internationally.
We do not actually perform or are involved in any of the medical treatments.
We are not doctors, we are technology and computer guru's.
We host the doctor's software in the "cloud" and they do not have any of their software onsite. So no more fear of fire/flood/theft. All the data, and software is still alive in our datacenter, even in the worst situation.
Doctors. Primarily higher end medical fields, such as Medical Oncology and Radiation Oncology, Heart, urology, and neurology.
These are highly educated, cost conscious professionals, who have a desire to reduce the complication of their business, and no longer want to worry about the technology that supports their business. Although they are cost conscious, they also understand that somethings, to do them right, cost a lot of money.
We are looking for a logo that works in all media.
No gradients, textures, shadows, bevels or 3d extrusions.
We would prefer that the submissions be in black and white, since it needs to work in black and white (greyscale). Can show how colors would work of course. We prefer 2 color.
Deliverable must be illustrator/eps vector art.
We are looking for a strong, professional logo. It needs to give the sense of Stability, Security, Structure and Technology. It does not need to be an "obvious" logo, it can be a bit more outside-the-box, however, we are selling to doctors who tend to be a bit more serious and literal. We are TECHNOLOGY company that provides services to the medical industry. We are not a doctor office or hospital or provider of any form of medical service. We provide the technology to accomplish those things.
This logo will be used as our corporate logo, and there will eventually be product logos that may base off of it, but most likely will just be standalone. It will be used at all sizes, from tradeshow signage, all the way down to smaller than a business card. Online, 4color process, spot color, black and white news print, and single color stamping are all the color types that this will be used in.

Justin Tucker and David Akers may be members of a very small NFL fraternity, but they represent opposing ends of the spectrum.
Tucker, the undrafted rookie kicker for the Ravens, is a baby-faced 23-year-old who can do a mean impersonation of Christopher Walken while rocking out to a Kings of Leon tune.
Akers, the 14-year veteran who kicks for the San Francisco 49ers, is a wizened 38-year-old who was once booed by Philadelphia Eagles fans for missing two field goals in a playoff game the day after doctors found a tumor on the ovary of his then-six-year-old daughter.
But even as their lives have taken different paths, their roads have converged at Super Bowl XLVII in New Orleans, where the right-footed Tucker and the left-footed Akers could each end the night in glory or as a goat.
Tucker — who grew up in Austin, Texas, which is almost an eight-hour drive from the Mercedes-Benz Superdome — admitted that he's already allowed himself to bask in the thought of converting a game-winning field goal to give the Ravens a second Super Bowl championship.
"Just thinking about it now, you almost get goose bumps thinking about it," Tucker said. "I can tell you, every day when I would go out to the practice fields at Westlake High School with my dad, we always ended on a game-winning field goal. I always end my warm up routine on gamedays with a 48-yarder from the right hash. That's the kick [the New England Patriots' Adam] Vinatieri made in the Superdome in [2002], I believe. This place right here is where he cemented himself as a Hall of Fame-caliber kicker, which is really a hard thing to do."
Youth has a tendency to build confidence, but so does completing one of the more successful rookie years in NFL history. Tucker connected on 30-of-33 field goals in the regular season. His 90.9 success rate ranked as the second-best mark in team history and the second-best conversion rate by a rookie in NFL history.
In the postseason, Tucker has nailed two field goals, including the game-winning 47-yarder in double overtime to propel the team to a 38-35 win against the Denver Broncos in the divisional round.
"Our favorite phrase is, 'We've got that Justin Tucker, please believe it,' Ravens wide receiver and return specialist Jones said with a wink. "That's how much confidence we've got in him."
Long snapper Morgan Cox said he sensed something special about the undrafted player out of Texas in the preseason.
"I thought he was going to be a great kicker from the start," Cox said of Tucker, who beat out incumbent Billy Cundiff in camp for the job. "You could tell by the way he came in and worked, the attitude that he gave, the way he attacked just about everything. You knew he was going to work hard. So no, I'm not surprised."
Special teams coordinator Jerry Rosburg is usually poker-faced when addressing the media during his weekly Thursday news conference, but he lights up ever so slightly when talking about the team's precocious kicker, who is the third-youngest player on the Ravens' active roster.
"The most important confidence that Justin Tucker brings to the kicking game is confidence in himself," Rosburg said. "He goes out there and plays, and he feels like he's going to make every kick. As a result of his performance this year, all of the players around him have confidence in him as well. And it's good to have confidence in yourself, but it's been now reinforced by reality. He can kick, and he knows he can kick, and his teammates know he can kick. So it just keeps growing that way, and we're happy we have him."
On the opposite sideline, Akers has struggled with his accuracy, making just 29-of-42 field goals in the regular season. Coach Jim Harbaugh was so alarmed by his kicker's sudden stumbles — in 2011, Akers set NFL record for field goals (44) and points (166) in a single season –—that the 49ers added Cundiff to their playoff roster.
San Francisco eventually cut Cundiff on Jan. 18, but two days later Akers missed his 14th field goal of the season in a 28-24 win against the Atlanta Falcons in the NFC title game.
Akers said he has leaned on his Christian faith during moments that have tested his character and will.
"I try to give thanks when things are positive as well, but absolutely during that time, I think everybody, as humans, we question a lot of what's going on or we can't see the big picture of what's happening," he said. "Sometimes the answer comes quickly and sometimes it takes a long time before reflection is turned into answers. So I look in and go to the scripture of, 'Lean on our own understanding' and 'His ways.'"
For all of Akers' hiccups, he is still a six-time Pro Bowler who has knocked down 81.8 percent (36-of-44) of his career field-goal attempts in the postseason. That's why Cox wasn't ready to state that anything was out of Akers' range or ability.
"David's been a great kicker for a long time," Cox said. "Sports has streaks. I can't really explain it. I'm not over there with him. But like I said, David's a great kicker, and you just never know."
Akers has the edge in experience, having made nine game-winning field goals in his career versus just three for Tucker. But Tucker has the benefit of recency effect stemming from his game-winner against Denver.
"I think that does help, and that's something that we've been good about doing throughout this postseason, carrying momentum and stacking good plays on top of one another," Tucker said. "For me, Morgan and [holder] Sam [Koch], that's no different. We look to stack successes upon past successes, and that's where momentum comes from. So that's been a positive thing for us to keep the momentum going."

Chicken Caesar Wraps light and refreshing, plus, they're perfect for throwing together something tasty last minute!
I know I sound like a broken record, but I seriously cannot believe that Christmas is two days away! Usually around this time of year I feel like I might snap if I hear Christmas Shoes on the radio one more time, but, I don't know, I feel like I could stand to hear it a few more times… I swear Halloween was just a few weeks ago!
Bahaha, ok, pardon my temporary insanity. If I never hear Christmas Shoes again it'll be too soon.
At any rate, I tried to fill the weekend with as much Christmas cheer as possible, in between wrapping things up at home before we leave tomorrow morning.
Coffee and Christmas shopping with a friend? Check.
Last minute holiday baking? Done (and coming your way tomorrow!)
Family time? Covered!
Ben and I spent Saturday night at my parent's place, snuggling by the fire while waiting for my little brother to drive in from Denver.
He and his girlfriend left their place at 8am, got home around 7:15pm, then stayed for about an hour before moving onto her parent's house in eastern Iowa another 3 hours away.
Road warriors!
Just as they got settled in with a hot bowl of chili, we heard the doorbell ring. Not expecting anyone, we all ventured to the door to find…real, live carolers! I didn't think anyone even did this anymore! Turns out they were old students of my Dad's, and honest to goodness, he could not have been more thrilled. Pure. Joy. What a fun Christmas surprise. :)
Anyway! This evening, in an effort to clean out the fridge of any perishable items, I threw together some Chicken Caesar Wraps for dinner.
Last week I wrote a guest post on a quick and easy toss together dinner, BBQ Chicken Quesadillas, for La Tortilla Factory's blog, and had some extra tortillas laying around, so I stuffed 'em with chopped chicken, romaine lettuce, tomatoes, and Caesar dressing then said, that's a wrap on dinner!
Start the wraps by adding 2 cups romaine lettuce into a big bowl. This will make 2 wraps, btw.
Next add 1 chopped roma tomato, and ~1/4 cup sliced red onions.
Now add 1 large chicken breast, or 2 small chicken breasts next. I cooked these by brushing chicken breasts with extra virgin olive oil then seasoning with garlic salt and pepper, and sauteing in a skillet over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes a side. THE BEST.
Next drizzle on 2-3 Tablespoons Caesar dressing (I heart Brianna's Asiago Caesar) then toss everything to coat.
Then break out the tortillas! I used La Tortilla Factory's 100-Calorie Tortillas which are high in fiber and Omega 3s. Plus they're HUGE, and made with no partially or fully hydrogenated oils (aka no trans-fats, yo.) Total tortilla winner, in my book!
Place half the chicken caesar mixture onto the front half of the tortilla.
It was at this point in the wrapping process that I heard a little bird chirping behind my shoulder. Let me just show you how to wrap this, mmkay? my wrap-saavy husband informed me.
See, first of all you have too much filling, the tortilla is going to burst…no not in the middle, place the filling towards the front…fold the sides in first!
Beat it! ;)
Ok, I'm glad he helped. It totally would have burst…

Warning preceded budget shortfall
5 years ago, Strayhorn said tax overhaul would prove costly.
AUSTIN — Comptroller Carole Keeton Strayhorn didn't win friends five years ago when she warned Gov. Rick Perry and state lawmakers they were writing the "largest hot check in Texas history" during a tax overhaul that resulted in lower property taxes and a revised business tax.
Strayhorn told them their plan would fall about $23 billion short over a five-year period. Five years later, state leaders are staring at an estimated budget shortfall of nearly $27 billion.
The nation's economic collapse three years ago contributed to some of the state's revenue troubles, but the biggest problem is that the new business tax did not generate enough money to pay for the school property tax cut, Strayhorn said Friday.
"I absolutely knew I was telling them straight up as best as I knew," the former comptroller said. "I knew it would be awhile before you would see the results."
At the time, Perry rejected Strayhorn's warning — saying she underestimated the tax reform and ignored economic growth from property tax cuts.
He also said at the time: "Future legislators are going to have the opportunity to be working with some numbers that are more current than what they're working at today — and some honest numbers."
The governor's office declined to comment about the accuracy of Strayhorn's April 2006 warning.
Perry and Strayhorn had become political rivals by May 2006 as she was running against him in the gubernatorial election.
"You can dislike someone. You may not agree with my philosophy, but you cannot deny facts, and you cannot deny numbers. When you are spending more money than you are taking in — and that's precisely what happened here — you will create a horrific, painful time for everybody," said Strayhorn, adding she does not like "to Monday-morning quarterback."
Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst said resurrecting Strayhorn's five-year-old forecast is "old news,"
At the time, Dewhurst called huge budget shortfall projections "hypothetical and speculative."
He now says he knew that revenue projections from the revised business franchise tax "were inflated" and told Senate members in closed door caucus meetings at the time that the business tax would not perform as advertised "and that we were going to create a structural funding deficit in state government." But Dewhurst said he also believed at the time that "we would grow out of it by now."
He blames the nation's economic collapse in 2008 for contributing to the state's projected budget shortfall today.
Perry spokeswoman Katherine Cesinger noted the "Texas economy continues to grow steadily ahead of the nation, and the comptroller's biennial revenue estimate, as expected, is also reflective of the national recession's lingering impact on state revenue."
The projected shortfall reflects the amount of revenue needed to maintain current services, including the cost of educating an additional 170,000 school children over the next two years.
Perry, however, does not address the cost of current services.
"I think we have a budget of $76.5 billion, and we're going to live with that. It's only a budget hole when somebody has wished that they had more money," the governor said last week.
The state's huge budget shortfall — when measured against providing current services — seems to vindicate Strayhorn's projection.
Strayhorn said her frequent visits with the legendary Bob Bullock put a reverberating message in her mind: "Don't overshoot the runway," the late comptroller and lieutenant governor told her.
Strayhorn said she relied on expert staff economists and made sure her projections were independent of politics.
"That doesn't mean you are the most popular sheriff in town," said Strayhorn, who today volunteers at two non-profit groups — "Austinites for Action," which tries to increase voter participation in local elections; and "Our Texas Grandchildren Foundation," which tries to improve conditions for foster children.
"It's a good feeling that I was straight up. What I do not feel good with is looking out here in a state where everything ought to be about education, education, education," Strayhorn said.
Cuts to education are expected to help close the budget shortfall without a tax increase.
Austin Bureau Chief Peggy Fikac contributed to this report.

Making fine, traditional-style tofu since 1994 in Nova Scotia.
P.O. Box 34 Grand Pré, NS Canada
902 542-0675
Acadiana Soy Products is located in Grand Pré, a small community located in the Annapolis Valley of Nova Scotia and has been making fine, traditional-style tofu since 1994. Anna, George and daughters, Heather and Emily, are committed to providing good quality soyfoods to Nova Scotians.
The soybeans we use are certified organic and not genetically-modified. Wherever possible, we use organically-grown, local ingredients to make our products.
We craft our tofu in small batches, using open cauldron-style cooking. We soak the beans in water overnight. Then we grind the soaked beans into a paste. The ground soybeans are cooked traditional style in boiling water in an open cauldron. After cooking we separate the soymilk from the soybean pulp (the Japanese word is "okara"). Making tofu from soymilk is similar to making cheese from any milk. We coagulate the soymilk using nigari, a Japanese coagulant composed mainly of magnesium chloride. The coagulated milk separates into curds and whey. We ladle the curds by hand into forming boxes where the curds are pressed into shape. When the tofu is set we cut it into blocks by hand. This is the delicious, fresh, homemade product that you enjoy.
There are few small, traditional tofu shops making fresh tofu in Canada. Fresh tofu is truly the best tofu. We are proud to offer you our quality tofu products.

The Idea of North (2008-2010)
Individuation is a recurring theme in my photographic work: the ways people struggle to belong yet be different at the same time. Sometimes, people's quests for identity lead them to leave the beaten path, and take the road less travelled. And for them, the quest for self-discovery becomes a journey in every sense of the word.
The fast-paced, anonymous life of the urban environment sometimes offers neither the time nor space for individualization, nor the comforting place needed for belonging. So, for some, the sense of freedom and interdependence intrinsic to a remote, Northern community makes it an idealized symbol of the Promised Land.
The idealization of the North has been nourished by stories by Jack London and Robert Service; by numerous movies about the area's wild and pristine tapestry; and even by images of the Northern lights, which to this day, although certainly explicable by science, have lost none of their spiritual fascination or magical appeal.
In 2008, I spent three months in a small community in Canada's Yukon, where I experienced first hand the mystery and fascination of life above the 60th parallel, and met people who came here as part of their quest for the idea of North.
I'm not the first observer to be simultaneously intrigued, yet remain a visitor. Glenn Gould, whose work inspired the title, wrote after visiting the North briefly, "I've read about it, written about it, and even pulled up my parka once and gone there. Yet like all but a few Canadians I've had no real experience of the North. I've remained, of necessity, an outsider. And the North remained for me, a convenient place to dream about, spin tales about," and in the end, return South.

A large lawn sign that reads "Black Rifles Matter" in Boothbay Harbor, Maine, has sparked outrage.
The sign's creator, Linc Sample, said the sign is about gun rights, not race. Sample painted it and placed it on private property after an ad in the local paper supported an assault-style weapons ban.
"That's really a trigger for me — the assault weapons ban," said Sample.
He said he used the phrase "Black Rifles Matter," a play on the phrase "Black Lives Matter," to have impact. The BLM movement calls attention to police brutality in the U.S.
"If anything, they should be flattered I used the phrase," said Sample.
But some tourists have been upset by the sign.
"We have received a few complaints from visitors to the region," said Boothbay Region Chamber of Commerce Director Rick Prose.
"Some of these people have cut their vacation short and left early," said Town Manager Thomas Woodin.
Town officials say Sample is exercising his First Amendment rights to free speech, and has all the proper permits for a sign of that size.
"There isn't much the town can do about it," said Woodin.
Tourists in Boothbay Harbor Monday said the sign is attention-grabbing, and polarizing.
"People are ignorant. They shouldn't be putting things out like that," said Paul Mayor, visiting Maine from Connecticut. "It's taking a shot obviously at Black Lives Matter."
"I think they're doing the right thing," said tourist Jeremy Plasse, who opposes a weapons ban. "Massachusetts has a ban right now, and I think they should lift it."
Sample regularly changes the large sign on Townsend Avenue, and said a new one will soon replace the Black Rifles Matter sign.

It's odd that you would respond with insinuations about me rather than looking at the actors that the new guy has apparently discovered. I've never had any ties to Rick Siegel other than being a poster on his forum years ago.
What's the big idea here? I don't understand why you're reduced to taking cheap shots at me instead of responding substantively.

I have moved this little exchange between the two of us to the Chatbox (I shouldn't have started it in the Arizona psyop thread - my bad). Also, please pardon me for that curt post I did last night regarding Rick Siegel.
Let me say straight away that I have no desire to start a feud with you. I prefer to think that the 'Fred' I exchanged mails with (back in the chaotic days of Rick Siegel's "911researchers" forum) was just someone impersonating you.
I distinctly remember this 'Fred' repeatedly asking me to reconsider Rick Siegel, that he thought Rick was a 'good guy, only with a bad temper' (or something to that tune) and that he had met him in person. If that was not you, I will of course apologize for erroneously assuming that it was you.
I will therefore cautiously ask you if you are the same Fred who has - until recently - vouched (I think that is the right word) or, should I say, 'given the benefit of doubt' to personnnages/entities such as Nico Haupt, Ozzybinoswald and Judy Wood. I can only hope you will understand my perplexity as to why someone as profoundly experienced and intelligent as you would still concede any sort of credibility to the aforementioned trio.
As for this quote of yours (which, undoubtedly, must be authored by the 'Fred' I am addressing right now...) :I might as well ask how much it costs to rent a villa in Rome and if the Social Service is selling out that many shows every evening. Clearly it's not iTunes paying the bills around there. Rich uncle? Stipend from Norwegian Royal family?
Well - I prefer not to answer to these questions of yours. They have a distinct smell of provocation, the sort of which I strongly dislike. All I will say is that I've had a variety of jobs in my life, some of which have allowed me to put aside some (modest) savings - and never earned a buck or a euro dishonestly. The house I live in was bought by my long deceased father (1990) with his lifelong savings. If you are interested in renting a spare room I have, you can contact me via private e-mail:
fred wrote:@nonhocapito I certainly can't conclude that Nico is a perp but he's certainly a "perp magnet" and under heavy surveillance, or at least he used to be.
fred wrote:Nico is basically a public figure and to the extent that anybody wanted to go follow a "no planer" or "9/11 skeptic" around, he's certainly one of the most visible ones. So I think that everybody has a file on Nico Haupt. He attends rallies and meetings and speaks out and demonstrates and yells at people and grants interviews etc. So he attracts a lot of attention and generates a lot of "contacts" and "incident reports". People who keep track of "disturbances" have plenty to keep track of around Nico.
Therefore, I think the surveillance probably had little to do with me and more to do with "Nico's holding a meeting with somebody, we'd better see what he's up to this time." I'm sure they spent a little bit of time figuring that one out.
It's too bad I missed what sounds like a great party at Simon's place, though. The meeting with Nico was just like that but without the beautiful girlfriends, the singing, the music, the hugs, the plane props and decorations, and the Roman villa. But with a not-so-subtle police presence.
When I'm in the city I'm photographed dozens of times every day. But so what? If someone wanted to write a book about me who would read it?
As for video, there's nothing exciting I can show you. No fights broke out. Nobody got led away in handcuffs. The police had nothing to do except try to figure out who showed up and where they went, which was probably a big waste of their time. I gave up on trying to upload content to youtube a long time ago. They don't want me there.
"OK, Nico met some sailor we haven't seen before, and they talked, and now he's leaving, and um, hmm, maybe those other people are with them? What about these other people. Are they with us? What's going on here?"
Pics or it didn't happen. I know. I know. Somebody has the audio from the meeting, I'm sure. I don't think I've posted that anywhere before. Nico might remember it. His life is a lot more complicated than mine. Supposedly he's been fired from jobs and lost his apartment over his public advocacy of some of the views we express here. As of a few years ago he certainly existed outside the computer, but I don't know anything about where he comes from. He's a very interesting person.

nonhocapito wrote:Thanks for the summary Fred. I must admit I know next to nothing about all these characters who disappeared before I even conceived or heard of fakery and digital planes. I know Simon or Hoi or brianv or others can sum up in one sentence for me and for you the amount of damage people like Nico Haupt caused and why they obviously must have been playing for the bad guys all along.
For the little I know of the topic, I have problems believing that Nico Haupt was followed and spied so closely. And, judging by your words, still is spied now. Isn't it possible that his disturbances and interventions were instead orchestrated with the favor of the establishment, since they seem to be designed to make everyone look deranged? And if so, isn't it more likely that these people worked with him rather than on him?
Is it so necessary that the most influential character interested in fakery was also such a complicated fellow, like you put it, that would put the whole "group" in such a horrible light? Ace Baker, Jeff Hill, Nico Haupt: aren't these rather created characters who danced in synch with Alex Jones, when he yelled from his radio show that no planers believed in holograms?
I'm happy to read that, like me and like most rational people you are not too worried about the fact that we can be identified or tapped because of our interest in media fakery and false terrorism. I remember much more chilling stories from you that seemed to imply necessary caution in trying not to be identified, because of the high risks we all are supposedly running. A caution which after all must be worn out at this point, since so many years later you are still among us, as Nico apparently is.
My curiosity with the video lies essentially with these figures surrounding the encounter between you and Nico. Since you seem to have recognized among them so many agents and supervisors, I was curious as to what they looked like.

Superluminal neutrinos
I remember not too long ago hearing very much speculation about a discovery that perhaps neutrinos are faster than the speed of light. I've heard nothing since, not even anything to confirm that they're not, although I strongly assume they're not due to the fact that I've heard nothing since.
In my assumption that they aren't, can someone explain to me why we thought they were and what happened to cause us to abandon the theory? Technical problems?

Movie Review
How do you make one of the most detailed, lengthy, and popular novels of all time into a full blown feature film while faithfully sticking to every beloved detail contained within it? The answer is, you don't. Instead, you make a film that sticks as closely to it's source material as possible while staying within the necessary boundaries of filmmaking. Peter Jackson has created the impossible dream, that dream is Fellowship of the Ring, the first film in The Lord of the Rings trilogy.

The entire series will take place every other Saturday from 10:30-1:30, stretching from October to May, and there's no commitment to make it to each session – though you're definitely going to want to.
- Module One: FUNDAMENTALS – Shepherd's Crook Fire Poker, S-Hook, Swivel Arm, Yoke Fork
- Module Two: STRUCTURE – Ring Hook, Flint Striker, Trammel, Tripod
- Module Three: UTENSILS – Turner, Bottle Opener, 2-Tine Fork, Copper Ladle
- Module Four: BLADES – Camp Ax + Leather Sheath, Outdoor Knife + Leather Sheath
Throughout the series, you'll learn the basics of forge safety as well as forging points and fishtails, forming, drawing down, simple set downs, splitting, punching, drifting and more.
About the Instructor:
Goat n Hammer is a small group of artisans sharing studio space at The Goat Farm, but they quickly become like family. Led by Mark Hopper, this growing group of metalsmiths provides a safe, fun, rigorous environment to expand your knowledge and hone your skill in blacksmithing.
Mark has worked and taught in Europe, Africa and America and continues to do both from his Westside studio. He focuses on the process and function of the craft, the responsibility of the individual, and the lessons of the great craftsmen of the past.

Obama beats Romney in Conn. for 7 electoral votes
HARTFORD (AP) — President Barack Obama has won Connecticut's seven electoral votes, beating Republican challenger Mitt Romney in a state where registered Democrats heavily outnumber registered GOP voters.
Connecticut never appeared to be in doubt for Obama, who beat John McCain by a 23-point margin in 2008. The president did have to win over a large number of unaffiliated voters, who comprise the state's largest voting bloc.
Obama and Romney both attended fundraisers in the state over the past year, as did their running mates, but neither candidate held public campaign rallies. Obama also appeared in campaign ads that began running last weekend for Democratic Congressman Chris Murphy in his contentious race against Republican Linda McMahon for U.S. Senate.

John Cornyn, III (born February 2, 1952) is the junior United States Senator for Texas, serving since 2003. He is a member of the Republican Party. He was elected Chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee for the 111th U.S. Congress.
Cornyn was born in Houston to John Cornyn, II and Atholene Gale Cornyn (née Danley). He graduated from Trinity University in 1973, where he majored in journalism and was a member of Chi Delta Tau. He earned a J.D. from St. Mary's University School of Law in 1977 and an LL.M. from the University of Virginia School of Law in 1995.
He served in San Antonio for six years as a district judge before being elected as a Republican in 1990 to the Texas Supreme Court, on which he served for seven years. From 1999-2002, Cornyn was the Texas Attorney General, the first of thus far only two Republicans to have held the position. In 2005, Cornyn's name was mentioned among possibilities to replace Supreme Court justices Sandra Day O'Connor or William Rehnquist.

A woman apparently gave birth on a San Francisco street overnight, leaving her child behind as police arrived to help her.
San Francisco police said they were called to the Bayview District street corner at 2 a.m. to do a welfare check on a woman who had arrived at the door of a homeless shelter and said she needed help. They said she was bleeding and told them she had just given birth.
When officers arrived they said they were flagged down by a man who was holding a newborn baby boy. He said the mother handed him the baby before she took off.
Initially the baby was unresponsive. One of the officers on the scene was a former paramedic and began CPR. The officers called for an ambulance, but decided they could get the baby to the hospital faster so they drove the infant in their police cruiser to San Francisco General Hospital.
Meanwhile, other officers searched and found the new mother nearby. She was also rushed to the hospital according to police.
Both the baby and the mother are now are SF General and expected to survive.
The circumstances surrounding the birth were not immediately clear.
The officers who rushed the baby to the hospital are being called heroes. They both have been on the force for five years and work the midnight shift by choice, according to Lt. Robert O'Sullivan with the SFPD.
O'Sullivan said the two don't want to talk about what they did because they are upset thinking about their own children.
"If they are not heroes, I don't know who is," O'Sullivan added.
The case remains under investigation. Anyone with information is asked to call police Sgt. John Keane of the Police Department's special victims unit at (415) 553-9363.

Blackhawks' goal is to remain focusedby Tal Pinchevsky
BOSTON -- Most NHL players go their entire careers without coming within a single victory of hoisting the Stanley Cup.
But heading into Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final on Monday at TD Garden (8 p.m. ET, NBC, CBC, RDS), that's where the Chicago Blackhawks find themselves as they lead the Boston Bruins 3-2 in their best-of-7 series.
Eight players from the current Chicago team were in Philadelphia on June 9, 2010, when they held a 3-2 series lead on the Philadelphia Flyers in the Cup Final and wrapped up the series with forward Patrick Kane's overtime winner. The wisdom gained from that game and the calmness it inspires in the Blackhawks are huge asset three years later.
"It's a similar feeling, especially having the series tied 2-2 and taking Game 5 at home and coming on the road for Game 6. But, you have to be careful," Kane said Sunday. "Even a couple of years ago, Boston was down 3-2, they won at home and then won game 7 in Vancouver. This team is capable of coming back. For us, I know it's a big game, but you want to play like it's any other game."
With eight players left from that 2010 Cup team, that leaves a number of players experiencing this clinching-game atmosphere for the first time. That's why Chicago is collectively working to keep nerves calm and the pace even heading into Game 6.
"I think it's a fun time. The process of getting this far makes it all worthwhile along the way. There's some highs, there's some laws, there's excitement, great days, there's some tough days. The one thing is you don't want to get ahead of yourself in the process," Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville said shortly after the team flew into Boston on Sunday. "We've got some guys that have been there, they know the experience. There are some guys that are so excited, you dream about this moment. But at the same time, we've got to keep everything in perspective and we want to make sure we're confident playing the game and putting yourself in the now position as opposed to ahead of yourself."
Keeping that perspective likely wasn't quite so easy the last time the Blackhawks found themselves in this very position. The 2010 team that hoisted the Cup in Philadelphia was made up of several players younger than 25 (including Kane, Jonathan Toews, Kris Versteeg, Troy Brouwer, Andrew Ladd, Dustin Byfuglien and Brent Seabrook) who were enjoying their first taste of the Final. This team has more polish, the kind of refined experience that could prove key if the Blackhawks want to keep the Bruins from sending the series back to Chicago for a Game 7 that would take place Wednesday night.
"I think looking back to 2010, we were just satisfied being in that position. I don't think we really cared if it was in any building in the League. It was something that was all new to us," Blackhawks winger Patrick Sharp said. "We were excited to be there. I can say the same about this year. It's a heck of an opportunity we have [Monday] night. You've got to look at the team we're playing against. They've been in much worse situations than this and they've been able to rally back and fight for their lives.
"To think we're looking ahead and planning on winning another Stanley Cup, that couldn't be further from the truth."

We're still digging through the first official OS update to Windows Phone 8 tonight and we have found some new, undocumented features of high interest.
One area that seems to have been a focus for Microsoft for this update is in regards to text messaging. We can now confirm at least three new significant features to that aspect of the OS with this rollout...
Three new undocumented features for Windows Phone 8 (10211) Portico:
- SMS Drafts
- Select all (for mass deletion)
- SMS Call reject
The first addition we have actually known about for sometime, as it was rumored to be coming with the HTC 8S. The ability to create drafts of SMS messages is a small but important feature for those who text a lot. When typing a messaging and backing out, an unsent message is added to the drafts area, which can then later be accessed.
The 'select all' feature with delete is also new. Previously users could mass select test messages but you had to manually select them one by one before they could be deleted. Now, users can check all at once and then delete with just two-steps. Once again, a significant improvement.
Mass select for text and Call reject via Text
The third is the most interesting though: users can finally reject phone calls with a text message. When a call comes in and the user slides up to either answer or ignore, a third option is now present to use Text. Once selected, the user is brought to a new screen where they can tap-to-send a pre-written SMS to the recipient. The two messages are "I'll call you back" or "Please Text me" with a third option letting the user enter in a text directly.
[Update: You can manually enter two of your own SMS messages for text-call reject under the Phone settings.]
Although these are by no means huge changes, they are little things that irritate people when they are missing. It's nice to see Microsoft is paying attention to small details to help improve the Windows Phone experience.

Goth is back! Not that it ever went away. But expect Fall 2009 to have a certain dark glamor, according to yesterday's WWD — although this year, it comes with a Japanese twist…
What's the difference between Western goth and Japanese goth? WWD asked Carmen Yuen, who's made a career out of blogging about the Gothic Lolita culture on La Carmina: "Western Goth responds to a lot of religious imagery and potentially controversial connotations," she says. "Whereas in Japan, it's just an aesthetic. It's all visual, without the context."
This means fewer crucifixes, more "Lolita," — ruffles, petticoats, bows, knee socks — but with a macabre touches inspired by anime and porcelain dolls. WWD's goth photo shoot (and behind-the-scenes video) coincide with the publication of the Rizzoli book, Japanese Goth.
What's interesting about this trend is the timing. Since we're not quite out of the woods in regards to the economic downturn, is it appealing to think about dressing slightly more… gloomy right now? Or with a new administration, are you more likely to look for bright, happy, "hope"-filled clothes?

If I am posting in the incorrect forum then moderator please move my thread to a forum more beneficial. - Thanks
Smartphones: Android devices
Router: Linksys WRT1900AC
Home size: 1,200 square feet
Computers/Laptop: All PC compatible running Windows 10
The main reason for my post here is to get somewhat of a starting point of making my home smart. Not only for now (today) but for the future looking forward.
Years ago I used to be good with computers but stopped keeping up with technology around 2002. Don't know much about smartphones like I used to with computers. Used to be an IT Analyst back in the time with some programming experience.
Two people live in the home, me and my partner. I am more or less retired and he is still out and about. We both have smartphones that are Android. Mine is a Blu Vivo X and his (well, which one? He has like 5-long story short they are all Android). I am also a licensed electrician.
I want to start installing smart switches etc in my home. Wiring the switches won't be an issue since I am an electrician. I really want to start with the basics but want to start with something I can expand on in the future. I have not been keeping up with technology in the way of cell phones and computers. I have read pages and pages on the Net about how to start and what to start with. Now I am looking for some real input if possible.
I kind of know that you can have a "hub" or not have one. I don't really know the real solid pros of having one. Or do I really need a hub? Small home about 1,200 square feet, only two people live here. Just want to be able to install some smart switches like to control my outdoor spot lights. Drive up to the house, press the screen and the outside lights go on. Go in the house and shut them off with my phone. If I forget, they will shut off by themselves. In the very near future put my steam boiler on my smartphone to control it. Rooms in the house to be put on smart switches. Maybe a few video security cameras around the house to trigger an outdoor spotlight and start recording video.
I see there are so many different systems out there and really have no idea where to start. I am a bit hesitant about using anything like a hub that is "Google" controlled. I am at this point attempting to steer myself away from my gmail account and away from Google all together as I feel Google is way too intrusive in my life! Paranoid-No; cautious yes!
Where would you suggest someone like me starts in the way of a system; or do I really need one. I would like to control any smart devices from my phone no matter where I am. Maybe the security cameras also (cameras in the future) but looking ahead.
Just some pointers (in the right direction) and some suggestions would be very much appreciated. I realize this is a very general overall thread but it can be a starter for me.
Thanks so much

The Sun Devil men will look to defend their team title at the George Kyte Classic.
Aug. 29, 2012
For the PDF file, click here: 2012 George Kyle Classic – ASU Meet Notes
TEMPE — The Arizona State University cross country programs will open up the 2012 campaign this weekend at the George Kyte Classic in Flagstaff, Ariz. The meet is the first of 11 scheduled competitions on the Sun Devil slate this season. The competition will consist of two races, with the women's 5,000-meter race getting underway at 1:30 p.m. to be followed by the men's 8,000-meter run at Buffalo Park.
MEET HISTORY: George Kyte
Historically, the Sun Devils have had two individual winners and two team victories at the George Kyte Invitational recording at the 2005 and 2011 events. The first individual victory was recorded in the women's 5,000-meter run by Jenna Wrieden as she covered the course in 17:56.8. The team victory was recorded by the men that same year as the Sun Devils scored 35 points for the win. Darius Terry won the men's race last season and led the team to a victoryas they scored an impressive cumulative total of 26 points.
A LOOK BACK: 2012 George Kyte Classic
The Arizona State University men's cross country team took home the team title while the women scored a runner-up finish in the season opener at the Geoge Kyte Classic last season. Darius Terry won the men's individual crown handily over the 8,000-meter course in a time of 25:38.8, about two-and-a-half minutes quicker than his time on the same course the previous season. It was the first time a member of the men's team had ever won the individual title at the event. Terry led a pack of Sun Devils as the team scored their lowest total in race history with 26 points to win the competition for just the second time in the school's history at the meet – with the other victory coming in 2005. The women's side fared nearly as well as the men, coming second to Arizona by a mere three points. Natasha Vulic ran the fastest time of any Sun Devil in the history of the George Kyte Classic, finishing fourth in 17:38.0.
There was no more dynamic freshman in the conference last year that Shelby Houlihan, and the sophomore was honored in 2011 as the Pac-12 Cross Country Newcomer of the Year before following that up with the 2012 Track and Field Newcomer Award as Well – becoming the first student-athlete in conference history to complete the sweep Houlihan was the top freshman finisher at the Pac-12 Championships (8th) and the NCAA West Regional (12th) and led the women to their 13th NCAA Championships appearance in the last 14 years.
Nick Happe was a pleasant surprise for the Sun Devils in 2011 and the senior will be looked upon as a leader this season. Happe was the team's top runner through most of last season and saw that come to fruition with an All-West Region finish at the NCAA West Region Championships. That momentum carried to the track for Happe as he set personal records indoors in the mile, 3000m and 5000m and moved up the ASU all-time top-10 list in all three events. He was a second-team All-American in the mile and looks primed for a solid senior campain.
Last season, Shelby Houlihan made history by being the first person in conference history to sweep the Pac-12 Newcomer of the Year Award for both the cross country and track and field seasons. So who are ASU's candidates to challenge for that honor this season? CJ Albertson is a young man that men's coach Louie Quintana is very excited about. A freshman out of Buchanan High School in Clovis, Calif. (the same school as former ASU great and OlympianKyle Alcorn and current teammate Macy Bricks) was among the top high school cross country runners in the season last year, qualifying for the Footlocker Nationals despite battling injury through the season. Adriana Olivas is a freshman out of Corona, Calif. (Centennial HS) who is the gritty, hard-working sort of runner that women's coach Ryan Cole says represents what the program is all about and could make a splash early as well. Other notable newcomers include Zach Zarda, a 2012 NCAA West Preliminary Qualifier on the track, and Garrett Seawell, the 2012 California State Junior College Cross Country champion.
After advancing to 12 consecutive NCAA Championship apperances from 1998-2009, the Sun Devil women's cross country team had one of the longest active streaks in the nation before missing out in 2010. Some might have thought it was an end to the dynasty, but the women regrouped last season to advanced to their 13th championship meet in 14 years and will look to restart the streak with another appearance in 2012.
Coming into his ninth season as a head coach for Arizona State cross country, Louie Quintana has put together quite the program since taking over in August 2004. During his seven years leading the distance group, Quintana has worked with seven individuals that earned 10 total All-America honors in cross country, including the program's only three-time honoree Amy Hastings and Brandon Bethke who placed seventh nationally at the 2009 NCAA Championships. On the track, his athletes have been instrumental in helping the Sun Devils capture four national titles and three Pac-10 crowns. He has worked with four individuals that have collected five NCAA titles, including Kyle Alcorn, who won the indoor 3,000-meter run and the outdoor 3,000-meter steeplechase in 2008.
Ryan Cole has built up a reputation as one of the most promising and exciting up-and-coming young coaches in the nation and was named as the head coach for the women's cross country team for the 2011 campaign as a testament to that. Now in his second year, Cole began working with the Arizona State program during the 2007-08 campaign and had served as an assistant ever since. In that time, Cole worked with the ASU women's distance teams serving under Coach Louie Quintana while also handling many of the daily administrative aspects of the Arizona State program and working with the management of home meets. Cole has been an active recruiter during his tenure, bring in a solid class of athletes for the current season, and will be a welcomed addition to the ASU coaching staff.
The Arizona State cross country rosters feature a total of 33 student-athletes (16 men, 17 women). Of that total, there will be 12 brand new faces gracing the Sun Devil uniform. The women's squad features five true freshmen in Marcelle Cartledge (Scottsdale, Ariz.), Tory Haberman (Gilbert, Ariz.), Kaitlin Kaluzny (Yakima, Wash.), Adiana Olivas (Corona, Calif.) and Alexia Velarde (Rancho Mirage, Calif.). Dalanne Bartlette will join the Sun Devils with three years of eligibility after transferring from Shata Community College while Christen Collins will come on as a transfer out of the University of San Diego. On the men's side, CJ Albertson and Connor Vigil represent the line true freshmen while transfers Jeff Bickert (RS-Fr./Pleasant Hill, Calif/Cal Poly SLO), Garrett Seawell (Jr./Sacremento, Calif./American River JC) and Zach Zarda (Sr./Shawnee, Kan./Kansas) will debut for ASU this year. In addition to the new faces, redshirt freshmen Ryan Herson, Daniel Wong and Heyden Wooff could all contribute for the men this year in their first action with the Sun Devils.
Both the men's and women's rosters are loaded with underclassmen but both squads will look to the seniors to help lead the way. Coming into the year, Darius Terry and Nick Happe are far and away the top returning runners on the roster and among the top returners in the conference with Doug Smith expected to make contributions as well. For the women, two local products in Hailey Hanna and Natasa Vulic are the lone seniors, both walk-on's who have been priased by Cole for doing everything necessary to get to this point and providing the model work ethic for the younger women to follow.
One of the keys to building one of the top running programs in nation is the ability to recruit well from the areas around you. The Sun Devil teams have taken that task seriously and will field eight Arizona natives on the 2012 roster, several of whom will be expected to play a large role on this year's team. Mention as already been made of Hailey Hanna(Mesa, Ariz.) and Natasa Vulic (Phoenix, Ariz.) for the women. But the team also welcomes freshmen Marcella Cartledge (Scottsdale, Ariz.) and Tory Haberman (Gilbert, Ariz.) this season in addition to junior transfer Christen Collins (Phoenix, Ariz.). Redshirt freshman Daniel Wong (Tucson, Ariz.), redhsirt sophomore Garrett Baker-Slama(Tempe, Ariz.) and redshirt senior Josh Walker (Chandler, Ariz.) are some others that could play a pivotal part as the season progresses for the men.
Not only is the ASU cross country team looking to get things accomplished on the athletic side of things in 2011, but they have also started to put in work in the classroom as well. Four members of the Sun Devil women's squad and three men will take classes as part of Barrett, The Honors College, during the 2011-12 academic calendar. Barrett, which has been named among the top honors colleges in the nation, enrolls nearly 30 Sun Devil student-athletes in its highly selective program with almost a quarter coming from the cross country programs. The members representing the cross country team in the honors college consist of Natasa Vulic (Jr.), Catherine Loden (Jr.), Karlee Owens (So.) and Kayla Springford (Fr.) on the women's team and Garrett Baker-Slama (Fr.), Andrew Hagler (Fr.) and Nick Happe(Jr.) for the men.
Neither the men nor the women's team received votes in the preseason coaches poll released by the USTFCCCA. Both the men and the women are currently ranked seventh in the preseason West Regional rankings also released by the USTFCCCA.
Nick Happe earned USTFCCCA All-West Honors as the ASU men came painstakingly shy of an NCAA Championship qualification last season. The team took eighth at the NCAA West Regional Championships after a disappointing last-place finish at the Pac-12 Championship just weeks earlier. The team opened strong on the heels of Darisu Terry's individual victory at the George Kyte Classic in the season opener. The team rode that momentum to a fourth-place finish at the Roy Griak Invitational. Terry was fifth at that event to lead the team before injuries slowed him down over the rest of the season, eventually knocking him out of competition at the regional meet.
A young Arizona State women's squad advanced to the 13th NCAA Championship appearance in 14 years for the program on the heels of freshman phenom Shelby Houlihan. Houlihan was named the Pac-12 Cross Country Newcomer of the year follow All-Conference and All-Region finishes on the year. The women took sixth at the Pac-12 Conference championships and followed that with a seventh place finish at the NCAA West Regional Championships to earn an at-large bid the the NCAA Championships.

There is a an unabashed realism to this sentiment and yet, I wouldn't advise living one's life this way.
I try not to burn bridges and rather hold relationships as carefully balanced with mutual respect.
Of course, that doesn't mean I haven't wished to burn a bridge or two.
At the dawn of a new year, it's a time to reflect on the past and move forward with the new.
May you each move ahead with bright ideas and the courage to act on your dreams and desires.
c.1300, from O.Fr. corage (12c., Mod.Fr. courage) "heart, innermost feelings; temper," from V.L. *coraticum (cf. It. coraggio, Sp. coraje), from L. cor "heart," which remains a common metaphor for inner strength. In M.E., used broadly for "what is in one's mind or thoughts," hence "bravery," but also "wrath, pride, confidence, lustiness," or any sort of inclination. Replaced O.E. ellen, which also meant "zeal, strength."

What you see is a swarm of arms and cell phones angling to snap a picture of the first couple in an intimate moment seen by millions and millions of people.
Something about this photo is sort of serene—orbs of light representing well-wishers struggling to snap a blurry photo of a red dot and a blue dot shuffling together hundreds of feet away. It was probably hard to hear and hard to see, but damnit, if you got a photo it meant you were there. Camera phones for all because this is America. [Barack Obama, h/t @BrookeCNN]

MONACA, Pa. -- Shell Oil Co. is offering to make payments to replace lost local taxes if a multi-billion dollar petrochemical plant is built in western Pennsylvania.
The Beaver County Commissioners say in a statement issued Monday that Shell has offered to make the maximum payments-in-lieu-of-taxes if it builds the plant, which would convert natural gas into other consumer and industrial products such as plastics.
State officials have offered Shell significant tax breaks if it builds the plant, but that deal could have squeezed the local school board and government of revenue.
Local officials say they're pleased with Shell's high level of engagement with the community. They hope the plant will lead to an industrial resurgence in the area.
The proposed site is about 40 miles north of Pittsburgh.

I have a problem with a phenological study. The study area is in temperate zone of Asia. I have been doing phenological research using MOD VI product. I wanted to extract phenological events (onset/offset date, length etc) from NDVI and EVI, based on Greatest increase NDVI value method. After calculating the NDVI ratio, also I built a graph by result of NDVI ratio. But during determination of the average onset date of vegetation green-up and dormancy based on max and min value of NDVI ratio, some unreliable thing get me into trouble. For example: in forest area, max value of NDVI ratio occurred in middle of July corresponding threshold is 0.4 while in grassland area, onset of green-up occurred in middle of May corresponding threshold of 0.09. When I saw the graph, onset of green up in forest already started in beginning of May. So that's why I said it is unreliable.
Therefore, I wish to ask:
- Did you have a such kind of problem If you did phenological research using Greatest increase NDVI approach?
- If so, how did you solve this problem to determine onset date of green-up and dormancy.
