I'd like to hear more specifics about the form and function of a pay wang gi, if at all possible. Before these discussions about empowerments, I only knew of the generic expression "wang" and the specific terms wangkur and jenang. Is this "connection" what most people are referring to when they speak of a "provisional empowerment," or is that something else?pensum wrote:Note that there is also simply making a connection (pa'i dbang gis), such as when a lama touches a text or statue to one's crown, sometimes they will do this when giving a particular student permission to read and study that particular text before the student has had the opportunity to receive the empowerment or reading transmission.
Since texts and statues are representations of body and speech, respectively, could anything consecrated/blessed/designated by one's lama serve as the basis for a pay wang gi until such time as the appropriate level of empowerment can be obtained? H.H. Jigdral Dagchen Sakya has consecrated recorded DVDs which contain compressed spreadsheets of mantras for use in prayer wheels... so could that have implications as well?

|The latest machine vision camera technology can allow for improvements in ITS performance to minimize detection time in case of accidents, increase the detection rates in cases of violations, and minimize overall costs from police time and traffic jams. With decreasing budgets, these systems also need to maintain reasonable costs and prove their efficacy to gain adoption by government decision makers. While some differences between traffic systems and machine vision systems are obvious, it is worth highlighting the differences for ITS designers to be aware of when considering machine vision cameras.
Because of these differences, general purpose machine vision cameras may not be adequate, but high performance machine vision cameras can offer accuracy improvements, especially in high speed ALPR applications, while also reducing overall system costs. Some of the trends that can be observed are as follows:
In this article some of the trends that can be observed are described.

Jay Stull directs Rantoul and Die, which runs through July 20. It features Derek Ahonen, Sarah Lemp, Matthew Pilieci and Vanessa Vaché.
According to the Amoralists, "In the play, Rallis and Debbie's marriage has reached its expiration date. In fact, it's soured and stuck to the bottom of the carton. She wants him to pack his stuff and hit the bricks, but he's clinging to the past like a cat on a screen door. How far will a man go to hang onto his lady? It's a thin line between love and hate, between a kiss and a punch, between an ice cream cone and a beer bottle to the back of the head."
The critics have filed their reviews, and Playbill.com has collected them for our readers.

In case you missed the sneak-preview of footage from Marc Webb's The Amazing Spider-Man, you're in luck! We've recapped it for you here along with images from the film thus far. But what you really came here for is the new trailer, which is much better than the previous one, which started by highlighting a young Peter Parker and finished with a "Mirror's Edge" style parkour run over the rooftops from Spidey's perspective. We get a nice look at the budding relationship of Peter Parker and Gwen Stacy as well as the friction building between Parker/Spider-Man and George Stacy. You've got web-slinging, a nod to Parker's genius through his high-tech gadgets and chalkboard equations and glimpses of Ifans as The Lizard! Much more encouraging.
The Amazing Spider-Man stars Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone and Rhys Ifans and opens in theaters July 3rd. Hit the jump to check out the new The Amazing Spider-Man trailer.
For more Spider-Man coverage: over 25 new images, our recap from the footage shown at the Spider-Man preview event, the beginning of the viral campaign, and a gallery of all the images released thus far.
Watch the new trailer for The Amazing Spider-Man below:
One of the world's most popular characters is back on the big screen as a new chapter in the Spider-Man legacy is revealed in The Amazing Spider-Man. Focusing on an untold story that tells a different side of the Peter Parker story, the new film stars Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Rhys Ifans, Denis Leary, Campbell Scott, Irrfan Khan, with Martin Sheen and Sally Field. The film is directed by Marc Webb from a screenplay written by James Vanderbilt, based on the Marvel Comic Book by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko. Laura Ziskin, Avi Arad, and Matt Tolmach are producing the film in association with Marvel Entertainment for Columbia Pictures, which will open in theaters everywhere in 3D on July 3, 2012.
The Amazing Spider-Man is the story of Peter Parker (Garfield), an outcast high schooler who was abandoned by his parents as a boy, leaving him to be raised by his Uncle Ben (Sheen) and Aunt May (Field). Like most teenagers, Peter is trying to figure out who he is and how he got to be the person he is today. Peter is also finding his way with his first high school crush, Gwen Stacy (Stone), and together, they struggle with love, commitment, and secrets. As Peter discovers a mysterious briefcase that belonged to his father, he begins a quest to understand his parents' disappearance – leading him directly to Oscorp and the lab of Dr. Curt Connors (Ifans), his father's former partner. As Spider-Man is set on a collision course with Connors' alter-ego, The Lizard, Peter will make life-altering choices to use his powers and shape his destiny to become a hero.

While there was previously a Janis Joplin biopic in the works (the one simply titled, Joplin), another project centering on the Queen of Rock n' Roll is attracting some big names. Reports have director Lee Daniels (Precious) in talks to helm the project, titled Janis Joplin: Get It While You Can. Amy Adams (The Master) would star as the late singer in a pic that focuses on one day in her life. The script was turned in by producer Ron Terry and his wife Theresa-Kounin Terry. Hit the jump for more.
THR reports that Daniels is being sought to helm the independently financied Joplin biopic with producers eyeing an early start. Daniels made waves with his 2009 film, Precious, and went on to direct the Southern-fried thriller, Paperboy. His current picture, The Butler, based on the life of long-time White House employee, Eugene Allen, is currently in post-production. Adams, who was recently seen in The Master and Trouble With the Curve, has a number of projects lined up for the coming year. They include Andrew Levitas' Lullaby, Spike Jonze's Her and, of course, Zack Snyder's Man of Steel. Add portraying Joplin to that list.
Joplin, a singer who rose rapidly in the psychedelic 60s, had such memorable hits as "Summertime," "Piece of My Heart" and her only number one single, "Me and Bobby McGee." She played at the famous Woodstock festival in August of 1969 as one of the headliners. Sadly, a little more than a year later, Joplin passed away from a drug overdose, only about two weeks after Jimi Hendrix died.

Maintenance of Your Notary Commission
Allowable Notary Fees

Texas law states that if a notary overcharges for notary fees, the notary will be required to pay the overcharged client four times the amount charged.

|Certifying a photocopy
|Providing an uncertified copy of an entry from a notary's record book (per page)
|$ .50
Identifying the Client
The notary may use either a credible witness or personal knowledge to identify a signer.
Credible Witness
If you don't know the signer personally, you may take the oath of a "credible witness" that is personally known to you, and there is a form to attach to the document for this purpose. You must actually place the credible witness under oath; simply asking them to identify the signer is not sufficient. If this form of identity is used, document that on the notarial certificate and in your record book. Have the credible witness sign an entry in your record book for that transaction, detailing the oath of credible witness, and of course have the signer of the document being executed sign in the next entry for that notarial act.
Be certain to attach the credible witness affidavit securely to the document being notarized to prove your method of identification of the signer.
Personal Knowledge
Personal knowledge is always the best form of identification, but must only be used if the notary knows the signer personally. The notary may not take the word of a friend, family member, or co-worker as to the identity of a signer unless that person stands as a credible witness and swears an oath regarding the identity of the signer. DO NOT mark a certificate "personally known" unless the notary knows with a strong certainty that the signer is actually who he or she says he is. You must have actual knowledge of a signer in order to claim "personally known" as a method of identification.

'American Idol' Chicago auditions: The live blog
It's time for the second part of the American Idol 12th-season premiere. Join me here throughout the night as I blog about the Chicago auditions. -- Brian Mansfield
An "inspiring story of courage":Idol seems to be having a hard time launching this season. I've seen only a handful of people I think might have a shot at the semifinals and nobody, good or bad, who deserves to go viral.
Lazaro Arbos promises to be different. He enters the audition room dressed in a bright blue shirt and a shiny pink bow tie, and he's clearly nervous. When he speaks, he shows why. He has a horrible stutter, which started when he was young and got much worse when he moved from Cuba to Florida when he was 10.
For Arbos, speaking is "like a ro-ro-ro-ro-rollercoaster," he tells Mariah Carey. When he sings, though, the stutter goes away. And when he sings a tender, emotion-packed version of Bridge Over Troubled Water, Arbos has the judges in the palm of his hand.
"Just sing all the time," Keith Urban tells him. As the judges continue to praise Arbos, tears start streaming down his cheeks. As he hugs Carey, the singer tells him, "You're adorable. You're gonna do great."
The Miserables: It had to happen: A bad-audition reel spoofing Les Miserables. And, yes, they truly are "The Miserables."
And it's a great set-up for musical-theater student Ashley Curry. People tell Ashley that her voice is really good, and it's nothing like they've ever heard before. (Never a good sign on this show.) After hearing her shriek Jessie J's Mamma Knows Best, I'll know never to attend a production she's in.
"You sing in the theater?" Randy Jackson asks. "Is the sound off?"
"If you had the right vocal coach, you could do a lot with your voice," Nicki Minaj says, before letting out a big sigh.
The judges have a hard time critiquing her, they're laughing so hard. Curry takes their behavior in stride while she's in front of them, but, afterwards, she's clearly shaken and hurt.
C'mon Kez Ban, light my fire: Fedora-wearing fire performer Kez Ban likes attention, but if she's going to make the blooper reel in a way that would embarrass her family, she'd just as soon go home now, she says. She doesn't expect to win, but her swinging a cappella rendition of I've Got No Strings from Pinocchio intrigues the judges enough for them to ask her to perform one of her original songs with the guitar she brought. And it's strong enough that they're probably going to grant her wish -- to go to Hollywood.
"I can feel the realness in you, that you really are that person that you sing about," Carey tells her. Minaj loves the way she told her story.
"I like your voice a lot," Urban says.
Afterwards, she tells Ryan Seacrest, "If you want some excitement, you're going to have to wait till the shock wears off."
Can't imagine this woman will make the Top 40, but I would like to see her get some more face time in Hollywood. She's a scream, in a very deadpan sort of way.
Johnny Keyser returns: At 19, Ieisha Cotton is a professional dancer (and busts a few moves, at Urban's request). In retrospect, that's a blessing, because she dances much better than she sings Ashanti's Thank You.
"I was going to delicately suggest that you might want to stay more with the dancing thing," Carey says. Jackson's more forthright: "You're tone deaf." She almost gets a yes from a distracted Carey, but everybody else is a definite no.
Next up, another familiar face: Season 11's Johnny Keyser. "Got a girlfriend?" Minaj asks -- it's her go-to question for the cute guys. Keyser has prepared a blue-eyed soul rendition of Otis Redding's Try a Little Tenderness, which prompts Urban to say, "You're not going to be girlfriend-less for long." After a brief exchange between Minaj and Carey, Carey tells him: "You are a star, in my opinion. ... You have a gift, and I think you have star quality." But Carey's had enough of Minaj for today: In her world, Minaj apparently has graduated to She Who Must Not Be Named.
A slightly familiar face is back: It's time for Day Two of the Chicago auditions. "Let's hope that today is a good one," Jackson says.
Up first, it's Brandy Neelly, a two-time Hollywood contestant that Idol Chatters first met after her initial Nashville audition for Season 10. Neelly, 17, was raised by her aunt in Louisville, and she's a bit starstruck by Urban. "Since I was 9 years old, I have wanted to be the next American Idol." She auditions with Hank Williams' Your Cheating Heart, taking some nice liberties with the melody that show off both her power and her vocal chops.
"That's a great song choice, just the way you did it," Urban says.
"My grandpa used to sing it," Neelly replies.
"Bet he didn't sing it like that," Urban tells her.
Minaj is impressed, as is Carey. And Jackson, "I loved it from note one." She's going to Hollywood. Again!
If you want to see Neelly's first interview, from 2011, here it is:
Josh Holiday impresses the judges, too, as he sings Brian McKnight's Back at One. "I don't think anyone in the competition sounds like you, and I think it's an exciting sound," Minaj tells him.
Vintage soul choices help several contestants, including Courtney Williams, who sings the Jackson Five's Who's Loving You, and Andrew Jones, who delivers a foot-stomping rendition of Eddie Floyd's Knock on Wood.
As for Clifton Duffin, not even his parents knew he could sing. They say they've never heard him sing. "I didn't feel as confident in it," he tells the judges, so he didn't want to share his voice with anyone else. But he's going to sing one of his mother's favorite song, Superstar. He could use some practice, but there's a lot of raw material to work with. And his mother's blown away.
"I loved it, and I really enjoyed your journey, because I could relate to it," says Carey, who spent a lot of time as a youngster singing by herself. Urban says he has a "diamond-in-the-rough voice." He's going to Hollywood, by unanimous acclamation.
Minaj gets the power of the story, too. "My mother never heard me rap before I made it," she tells Randy as the Duffins leave the audition room.
Feeling the spirit: Curtis Finch Jr. wants to sing Smokie Norful for the judges, and he couldn't have made a better choice -- Jackson just called the gospel singer the night before. When he hits a falsetto run, Carey raises her hand as if ready to testify. Jackson and Carey break into applause when he's done. "OMG, let's hear it for the boy," says Minaj. It's maybe the most accomplished voice we've heard in three hours of auditions this year -- watch out for this guy.
Mariah Pulice is a recovering anorexic, and she still gets tearful when she talks about her struggle. "When I got really, really, really sick, I stopped singing," she says. "Anorexia engulfed everything in my life." She doesn't have the most impressive voice, as she sings The Beatles' Let It Be, but it's emotional and effective, well suited to her choice of material. Carey -- who has already bonded over their shared name ("It's the 62nd most popular name!" she exclaims) -- is in tears. "You touched me," she says. "I know what it's like to have to sing through tears. It's really difficult." Pulice is a unanimous choice for Hollywood. "This feels beautiful," she says afterward, holding her golden ticket. "I feel beautiful. For the first time in so long."
The women have their way: Fifteen-year-old Isabell Parell is skipping school to audition, and she hopes Urban will sing the male part of Baby, It's Cold Outside. He agrees, and he even likes the note she wrote at the bottom of his lyric sheet that says he should send her on to Hollywood. Carey thinks she has a humble, adorable quality and found the Christmas song refreshing. Minaj sees star potential, though Jackson doesn't -- he's outvoted three to one.
Urban has to leave the auditions to make a concert, but Minaj is ready to hold down the fort -- and flirt with the male contestants. This leads to the exchange of the night:
Minaj: "Is that a hole in your pants?"
Contestant: "Why ya lookin'?"
Griffin Peterson, though, doesn't need a hole in his pants to get attention. His version of Needtobreathe's Washed by the Water impresses the female judges mightily.
"You look and feel to me like a star. You just have something that lights up." But Randy doesn't get it. "Are you freakin' kidding me?" Minaj replies, adding that she believes he has the potential to go against any current teen heartthrob. Jackson votes no, but he's overruled by Minaj and Carey.
It's just a shout away: Iowa rocker Gabe Brown comes bearing gifts -- he's a baker, and he's got cookies. "I like your chances," Urban tells him. Brown's a shouter, picking the Rolling Stones' Gimme Shelter for his song. It's more than a shout away, but the judges seem to enjoy it.
"Honestly, can you do something a little bit softer?" asks Carey. It's a good question, but Brown's choice is Steel Dragon's We All Die Young, which builds quickly to a scream. Minaj finds him believable as a rock singer. Urban likes him, too, saying that he's found guys with those big voices also have really big hearts. Eventually, all four judges decide to send him on to Hollywood, but I can't imagine that he has the versatility to last long there.
Up next, it's Kevin Navity, who got into music with Vanilla Ice and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. (Make of that what you will.) He's confident, but he doesn't "want to come off as cocky." He's also into computer animation. And dancing. Which might more accurately be called almost-hand-standing. Hopefully, he can sing Barenaked Ladies' One Week better. Now, I don't know all the words to the song, so maybe he's got them right -- but I don't think so. In fact, the producers subtitle his performance, and it's eventually total nonsense, the verbal equivalent of whacking away at a keyboard.
"I feel like I'm at a bad auction, and Kevin just tried to sell me an old motorbike I don't want," Jackson says. Minaj suggests a second song, and Navity does a nasally version of Styx's Come Sail Away. In the end, Navity takes his rejection better than some of the other singers.
The tension rises. OK, so not everybody in Chicago has Mackenzie Wasner's chops. Austin Earle's bleached mohawk is more impressive than his voice. Maybe Kiara Lanier, a Chicago college student, can get the bar back up. After all, she sang for a President Obama birthday fund-raiser. She auditions with Celine Dion's The Prayer, using a sweet, controlled vibrato and a remarkable head voice.
"When you can only hear wows, you know that that was pretty freaking pretty," Minaj says afterward. Carey believes she has huge potential. "I love that way you went in and out of loud and soft, and you didn't do it in a typical way," she says. Urban compares her runs to Aaron Neville, which is a pretty insightful observation.
Stephanie Schimel follows Lanier, singing Dream a Little Dream. It's a little shaky, but she wins over the judges, with Urban calling her a "Carrie Underwood-Gwen Stefani blend." Minaj, though, is underwhelmed. Keith asks, "Don't you think she looks like a star?" Minaj replies, "I don't think you feel like a star." But Schimel gets through on a three-to-one vote. "I don't like you any less," Schimel tells Minaj. Minaj attributes her less-than-enthusiastic reception to a "rivalry" caused by the two of them wearing the same eye shadow. Carey's not having any of that and lights into Minaj. Urban just closes his eyes and shakes his head.
"I don't want to make anyone upset here," Carey says later.
"Sure you do," says Urban.
Massage therapist Melissa Bush shows up in a shiny pink-and-silver jumpsuit. This, I might suggest, is never a good sign. She also brought a yellow "Get Down DAWG!" T-shirt as a present for Randy. She sings a song I don't recall hearing on the show before -- Petula Clark's '60s hit Downtown. Unfortunately, she doesn't sing it well. By the end, her pitch is faltering badly. The judges can't even think of what to say. Bush seems quite surprised and on the verge of tears, especially when Urban says, "Check, please!"
Chicago starts strong. Tonight's first contestant comes with a pedigree: Mackenzie Wasner's father is a member of country singer Vince Gill's touring band. She auditions with Gill's hit Whenever You Come Around -- which her dad wrote with Gill (Pete Wasner also co-wrote Gill's hit Don't Let Our Love Start Slippin' Away). Carey sees a star power that can be honed. Minaj thinks she might already be beyond a competition: "That sounds like listening to your first single," she says. Urban and Jackson both note how difficult it is to sing Gill's songs well -- of course, Mackenzie has probably had some practice over the years. She gets through to Hollywood easily -- and now it's time for the show to tease upcoming fireworks from Carey and Minaj. Hang on.

20 Feet from Stardom
Academy Award® Winner
Millions know their voices, but no one knows their names. In his new film TWENTY FEET FROM STARDOM, award-winning director Morgan Neville shines a spotlight on the untold true story of the backup singers behind some of the greatest musical legends of the 21st century. The film is both a tribute to the unsung voices who brought shape and style to popular music and a reflection on the conflicts, sacrifices and rewards of a career spent harmonizing with others.
These gifted artists span a range of styles, genres and eras of popular music, but each has a uniquely fascinating and personal story to share of life spent in the shadows of superstardom. Along with rare archival footage and a peerless soundtrack, TWENTY FEET FROM STARDOM boasts intimate interviews with Bruce Springsteen, Stevie Wonder, Mick Jagger and Sting to name just a few. However, these world-famous figures take a backseat to the diverse array of backup singers whose lives and stories take center stage in the film.
Starring Darlene Love, Merry Clayton, Lisa Fischer, Judith Hill, Tata Vega, Lou Adler, Stevvi Alexander, Patti Austin, Chris Botti, Merry Clayton

The Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) and Pay Per Click (PPC) marketing strategies have traditionally pitted themselves against one another. Proponents of each have argued that their approach is better than the other. However, opinions are now beginning to change, with many companies noting the benefits of using both SEO and PPC in harmony.
SEO vs PPC
SEO involves increasing the visibility of a website or specific web page within search engine results, which is perfect for promoting your brand. For more information on SEO, click here. With successful SEO the chosen website will appear more prominently in the 'organic', or natural, search results and therefore receive more visitors.
By contrast, with PPC, advertisers (you) pay the search engines or content sites when their advertisement is clicked. This article is a good starting point for PPC beginners. Typically, the prices are fixed for content sites but users have to bid for key phrases on search engines. PPC drives in even more traffic, so employing it alongside SEO can really benefit your business.
Identifying The Best Keywords
Firstly, through the use of PPC, you will be able to see which keywords drive customers to your website. Once the most useful terms have been identified, these can be incorporated into SEO strategies. SEO tends to be a longer-term process. So, using the quick results provided by PPC can help you concentrate your efforts in the most important areas and not waste any time.
If PPC shows certain keywords are providing a lot of traffic, you can then ensure the landing page contains relevant persuasive information on these areas. Creating the best possible landing page will increase both your overall PPC quality score and the number of results you receive through organic SEO.
Identifying Gaps in The Market
Through PPC, you will be able to track which pages your advert is shown on. If it is consistently used on a certain website, a good strategy would be to examine that site's content. If it includes something relevant to your business which is not incorporated into your own web pages, then you will have found a gap in your marketing. Addressing this issue by writing your own similar content may lead to more traffic and reduce your dependency on advertisements.
This method will be particularly useful for new websites or web pages. New content is unlikely to get the same amount of traffic as established sites. Therefore, PPC advertising could be invaluable. It will bring attention to recent developments, providing the company with keywords to include and ways to expand SEO.
Being Consistent
To ensure that what you have learned from PPC benefits your organic SEO, you need to be consistent with both disciplines. Occasionally, companies introduce better offers on PPC adverts than appear in the organic search results. If you offer a 50 per cent discount in an advertisement, but only 30 per cent off in the organic search, very few people will click on the latter. This will lead to spending more money on PPC as well as reducing the effectiveness of your SEO.
Alternatively, results received through organic SEO may provide some surprising keywords or phrases that can be incorporated into your PPC scheme. This demonstrates the advantages of using them simultaneously.
Investigate Conversions
In order to test whether your marketing strategies are working effectively together, you can investigate the conversion pathways. Instead of simply recording the final advertisement viewed before the conversion, all stages of the marketing funnel are logged. This will show all aspects of marketing, such as email links, different PPC adverts and organic searches, which assisted in driving traffic to your site. Analysing the conversion pathways will allow you to determine the use of each strategy and optimising your marketing.
When employing search engine marketing, it is important to recognise the relationship between different areas and strategies. This is what using PPC alongside SEO provides. PPC allows you to constantly test and develop your website and marketing techniques. This holistic approach will provide stronger results and help you get the most from your internet marketing

CBS' new reality series The Job will premiere on Friday, Feb. 8 at 8/7c, the network announced Thursday.
The show is hosted by The View's Lisa Ling and offers contestants the chance to land dream jobs at some of America's biggest and best-known companies. Each episode features five candidates who go through a number of elimination challenges and are critiqued by a panel of executives — made up of representatives from competing companies as well as the contestant's dream employer.
Become a TV matchmaker! Which characters would you pair up on a blind date?
Rival companies have the opportunity to offer employment to the contestants as well, but it's up to the contestants to decide whether they want to work for another company or keep competing for the possibility of attaining a position at their chosen company.
The Job will take over the Friday time slot currently held by Undercover Boss, which will return on April 19, according to CBS. The new show is produced by Michael Davies and Mark Burnett.
Will you tune in?

There was something about seeing a woman with wet hair that would drive me nuts. To me, it symbolized not having enough time to fully dry your hair before leaving the house. Or being rushed. I cannot stand being rushed. So maybe that's why it bugged me so much. Especially in winter. Weren't those women with wet heads cold? And because I would see these ladies during my morning commute on the subway on the way to work, I assumed they too were headed to an office, a professional setting, which was no place for hair not yet ready to face the day.
Some would twist the hair up in a bun or the worst offenders would let it hang, dripping water down their backs or fronts, making wet trails on clothes, jackets, coats. Why? WHY?
I learned why when I became one of those women.
Part of what I didn't understand about leaving the house with wet hair was leaving your hair style to chance. Without a blowdryer, a straightener, or a curling iron, how are you to know what your hair is going to turn out like if you just let it dry on its own. A little wisp from the subway train breeze here, a little rub up against some strangers coat there, and your hairstyle could certainly become one that you may never be able to repeat (or never want to).
Then there's the professional bit. Wet hair to me says Hi boss! I was out too late last night and completely overslept but had to shower this morning to get the stank out! But here I am! Wet hair and ready to start the day! Prepare for cowlicks by noon!
Then I became a mom. I grew out my bangs so my hair had less maintenance and it was all one length. I needed my sleep. Every. Last. Second of it. And then five minutes more. And I wanted to spend as much of my mornings with my newborn twins and doing my hair just took time away from that. Besides I could just twist it up into a bun and it wouldn't be dripping down my back wet, and I could still look somewhat put together.
I also got mad at myself for even concerning myself with other people's hair back when I did. Basically, sometimes there is just not enough time in the morning to get ready. And for some, air drying makes your hair look better. But I'd still worry that it looks unprofessional for some offices. Depends on the job, of course ... and the boss.
What do you think of wet hair? Does it look unprofessional in an office setting? Do you ever leave the house with your hair wet?

Apple senior vice president Eddy Cue sold off almost $9 million in Apple stock last week, following in the footsteps of Bob Mansfield, senior vice president of technologies, who sold off $20 million in shares.
So far it looks as if Apple bigwigs want a payday, or perhaps it's just a sign of monkey-see, monkey-do. Mansfield sold on Nov. 28, while Cue, senior vice president of Internet software and services, sold his 15,000 shares on Nov. 30, according to the Next Web. Is it a coincidence? It's hard to say.
While some say this is a sign that Mansfield may he leaving Apple, the idea that Cue would be leaving Apple seems much more difficult to accept. He was placed in his role by chief executive Tim Cook and seems to only be rising in the company, according to CNET. Cue was also given 100,000 shares of unrestricted Apple stock last year which won't vest until 2014. This may keep Cue at the company.

The rite gives three options for the Prayer over the Place of Committal: one if the place is to be blessed, one if it has already been blessed, and one when the final disposition is to take place at a later time. Four additional options are given in OCF 405, all for use when the place of committal has not been blessed. "Similar word" options are not given here. Why? Clearly the Church is keeping a closer watch over the texts used here and wants to ensure the rite itself (as opposed to the introductions) communicates and celebrates what the Church envisions.
The straightforward option A addresses Christ, as the place of committal is blessed:
Lord Jesus Christ,
by your own three days in the tomb,
you hallowed the graves of all who believe in you
and so made the grave a sign of hope
that promises resurrection
even as it claims our mortal bodies.
Grant that our brother/sister until you awaken him/her to glory,
for you are the resurrection and the life.
Then he/she will see you face to face
and in your light will see light
and know the splendor of God,
for you live and reign for ever and ever.
For translation geeks, a comparison with the first edition can be illustrative. Above "hallowed" replaced "made holy;" and lines four through six replaced a simpler, "and even though their bodies lie in the earth, they trust that they, like you, will rise again." The Scriptural quote "in your light will see light" is more directly dependent on Psalm 36 than the earlier edition. Comparing the texts of the 1989 OCF with the 1969/1972 edition will reveal more upgrades–just note the small numbers in your second edition margin to compare to the first edition text.
Let's get back to the two original compositions of OCF 218, the first when the place of committal has already been blessed. Option B incorporates a litany of praise:
All praise to you, Lord of all creation.
Praise to you, holy and living God.
We praise and bless you for your mercy,
we praise and bless you for your kindness.
Blessed is the Lord our God.
R. Blessed is the Lord our God.
You sanctify the homes of the living
You make holy the places of the dead.
You alone open the gates of righteousness
and lead us to the dwellings of the saints.
Blessed is the Lord our God.
R. Blessed is the Lord our God.
We praise you, our refuge and strength.
We bless you, our God and redeemer.
Your praise is always in our hearts and on our lips.
We remember the mighty deeds of the covenant.
Blessed is the Lord our God.
R. Blessed is the Lord our God.
Without staring too long, I can pick out allusions or quotes to three different psalms in just the last section: 46, 34, and 51. And a shorter prayer to the Father follows here. It should be pretty clear that by the 1980's, ICEL was extremely sensitive to the need for the integration of Scripture into the Church's liturgy.
Option C, when the body's final disposition takes place later, is brief:
Almighty and ever-living God,
in you we place our trust and hope,
in you the dead, whose bodies were temples of the Spirit, find everlasting peace.
As we take leave of our brother/sister,
give our hearts peace in the firm hope
than one day N. will live
in the mansion you have prepared for him/her in heaven.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Next up, we'll take a close look at the central ritual of the Rite of Committal. Meanwhile, any comments?

Jeff Piquette's a believer.
First as a dad, now as an instructor, Piquette has seen first-hand what Summer Program Learning for Advanced Students does for students.
"I love the kids' enthusiasm, they all come and want to learn and just get a real kick about anything that they do," said Piquette, who's teaching at SPLASh! for the first year. Piquette lives in Cañon City and is an associate professor at Colorado State University-Pueblo split between teacher education and chemistry and physics.
During the two-week SPLASh!, Piquette is teaching second- and third-graders a course called "Use the Force" on electricity and magnetism. Among the students in his class, Piquette's 8-year-old son, Andrew, is in his third year.
SPLASh! is at Pueblo Community College Fremont Campus and is in its 11th year. The program is put on by Cañon City High School and PCC.
The program is by invitation only, and students are invited in three phases. First, if they're in Gifted And Talented Education, a Cañon City Schools program, then, students who have taken part in SPLASh! in the past get an invitation. If there are still open slots, students, who are recommended by teachers, get the option to sign up.
This year, there are 165 children in the program. They come from across Fremont County with some traveling from outside the county.
Co-coordinators Adam Hartman and Cindy Pottenger have worked since January getting the event organized, and by April 1, classes were almost completely filled.
"One of the things we look for when we look at a class, 'Is it something that they would otherwise get during the school year?' and we don't want it to be," said Hartman, who is the GATE coordinator for Cañon City schools. "We are looking at enrichment for these kids."
Among the topics this year are: Imperial China, whales, mining, birds, clay creation and digital photography.
"It's about getting the kids something they wouldn't otherwise get, and keeping it high-interest," Hartman said. "… Kids are jazzed about being here."
The program lasts two weeks and children choose one course to attend. There are a few options based on grade. Nine classes are being offered at PCC, two at CCHS and one at Washington Elementary School.
Participating teachers are from Cañon City schools and Florence-Penrose School District, and Piquette is from CSU-Pueblo.
PCC plays an integral role in putting SPLASh! together, Hartman said, and Pottenger added that being in the college environment makes it even more special for the students.
"It gives them the opportunity to come to the college where higher learning goes on," Pottenger said. "I really like that. It gives them a feeling of being on a college campus, and maybe they'll want to do that later on."

Romelu Lukaku wants to continue out-scoring Chelsea's misfiring strikers
Romelu Lukaku says he is determined to show that Jose Mourinho's decision to send him out on loan was a mistake.
Last Updated: 08/10/13 10:13pm
Having impressed while on loan at West Brom last term, Lukaku hoped he might get his chance at Chelsea this season, but he ended up heading to Goodison Park.
Lukaku has already scored four times for Everton, while none of the strikers who have remained at Stamford Bridge have managed a Premier League goal yet.
And the 20-year-old Belgian says he intends to continue out-scoring the likes of Fernando Torres, Samuel Eto'o and Demba Ba.
He told Belgian newspaper Het Nieuwsblad: "The coach decides and, as a player, you have to respect that.
"I chose to leave and it's up to me to prove the coach wrong.
"The only thing I can do is play well and score a lot, and then I think people will say that I'm a good player.
"I want to score more goals than the strikers of Chelsea. We will see at the end of the season who made the best choice."

China Ramps Up Health Spending, Targets Smokers
China's central government plans to increase spending on health care by 16.3% this year to roughly $26 billion, as part of a broader goal to improve public health and to complete overhauls to the country's health-care system it introduced in 2009.
As part of the nearly spending initiative, Beijing will increase its per-capita funding for basic health services to 25 yuan, or $3.8, per capita, up 67% from a year earlier, said China's Premier Wen Jiabao on Saturday, in a speech delivering the government's plans for the upcoming year. The government will also allocate 76 billion yuan to increase health-insurance coverage and to boost insurance subsidies to 200 yuan, up from 120, per person.
"We need to put people first, make ensuring and improving their well-being the starting point and goal of all our work," Mr. Wen said in his two-hour address.
The increase in health spending is a core part of China's plan to restructure its health-care system to provide affordable access to hospital care, medical treatment, and pharmaceuticals. In 2009, leaders pledged 850 billion yuan over three years for a measure to create universal access to health care by creating basic medical insurance coverage for 90% of its 1.3 billion people.
Including this year's appropriations, the government has spent around 450 billion yuan on health care.
Beijing also hopes that by lowering health-care costs, it will help drive domestic consumption. Households in China save 28% of their annual income, according to investment research group CLSA Asia-Pacific Markets, and fear of high hospital bills is among the main reasons. Instead of saving for medical expenses, the government hopes consumers will buy consumer goods.
Health spending accounts for 3.2% of the government's 5.43 trillion yuan in overall expenditures this year, and will go toward the prevention of chronic and mental illnesses, as well as HIV and AIDS, Mr. Wen said. Nearly 300 billion yuan, or 5.5% of total spending, is being spent on general education.
China also appears to be stepping up its antismoking campaign. For the first time, the government's five-year plan included a proposal to ban smoking in public places, the state-run Xinhua news agency reported Saturday. According to Yao Naili, dean of the China Academy of the Chinese Medical Sciences, more than 1 million people die from smoking-related diseases in China each year, Xinhua said.
"China's pace of antismoking had been rather slow, therefore the decision was not easy," said Yue Bingfei, a member with the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and a research fellow with the National Institute for the Control of Pharmaceutical and Biological Products.
The funding also aims to increase insurance coverage and health facilities for citizens in rural China. To fill a void of medical facilities beyond big cities, Mr. Wen said China will increase the number of county, township, and village health networks, and will encourage nongovernment organizations and foreign investors to open private practices.
China's rural areas have been plagued by poor access to care, the World Bank said in a recent report on China's health-care system. Urban residents have been given access to specialty hospitals, university research centers, and more-experienced doctors, while rural citizens face subpar treatment and are often prescribed an "irrational" array of drugs, the report said.
Officials acknowledge the health divide. Minister of Health Chen Zhu was quoted in state-owned English-language newspaper China Daily on Friday as saying, "It's also a worry that the capacity of grassroots-level hospitals is quite limited." He added that 8,000 county-level hospitals don't have dialysis treatment facilities.
If China were to spend about 1.5% to 2% of its annual GDP, it could guarantee national access to primary care, the World Bank report said, citing a recommendation from the World Health Organization. If China's GDP grows at the target 8% rate this year, the central government's health care spending would account for 0.4% of GDP.

[caption id="attachment_2048" align="alignright" width="225" caption="MG Will Grimsley, Kasey Kahne and Ft. Hood USO director Robin Crouse before Budweiser support event."][/caption]
From the desk of John Hanson:
Visiting Ft. Hood is always a treat. A humble treat, but a treat. It's the Army's largest base anywhere. On any day 1/3 of the base is deployed overseas; 1/3 is recovering from deployment and 1/3 is getting ready to deploy. Thousands of troops and families deal with that math every day. Today was a crowded day – a good day.
"Whenever there's a traffic jam, that's good news," a first sergeant told me.
So, what was I doing at the base that fills the space between Killeen and Waco, on a pretty nice spring evening?
Budweiser, one of the USO's stalwart supporters, offered to help us with Operation Enduring Care and our initiative to build 2 new state-of-the-art centers at the new Walter Reed Hospital at Bethesda and the Ft. Belvoir Community Hospital in Virginia. It's an ambitious effort, and when a national sponsor steps forward to offer us what might be $250,000, I'm going to show up.
Budweiser and its distributors around the country will be donating proceeds during the summer to help us as we begin the hard work of building the new Wounded Warrior Centers. Part of their promotion involves their Number 9 racecar, driven by Kasey Kahne, who is, by the way, a genuine supporter of the troops.
[caption id="attachment_2046" align="aligncenter" width="500" caption=" Budweiser Number 9 car, driven by Kasey Kahne"][/caption]
Voila! The Car
Budweiser regional representative Henry Dominguez announced the promotion in front of thousands of soldiers and family members gathered in one of the base's field houses to meet Kahne and to hear country music performer Kevin Fowler (yes THAT Kevin Fowler, whose Beer, Bait and Ammo is one of the best Texas songs I've heard in a while).
We're pretty sure they were there for Kahne and/or Fowler, because when Henry introduced me the plaintive wail, "We want Kasey!" was heard across the room. Well, I (wisely, I think) cut to the chase, explained why the support from Budweiser was important and got the heck off the stage.
Then, Henry, Kasey and I unveiled the bright, Budweiser red Number 9 car, with the legend "Proud to Serve Those Who Serve" across the hood. Pretty cool. On Memorial Day and July 4 (the bookends of the USO's Patriotic 6" the car will feature the USO logo inside, next to Kasey for the world to see when the in-car camera comes on. Watch for it.
Ft. Hood Matters
Ft. Hood is important to its soldier and family citizens. Families are raised here, after all. Military children are educated here. It's a really large community with an important focus.
Major Gen. Will Grimsley, the deputy commander of Ft. Hood and III Corps sees what the USO does. In a presentation to the USO he told his troops that the USO is there where they are, "From Kandahar to Balad, the USO will take care of you."
That was flattering and rewarding, but we have a special presence at this mammoth installation, and we suffer when they suffer.
The USO was the one NGO that was authorized to operate after the tragic shootings here in November. Later, the USO helped with the healing when we worked with the base's Morale, Welfare and Recreation office to produce its Community Strong Day. Gary Sinise, Chamillionire and others came here to celebrate resilience and sacrifice.
Robin Crouse, the USO's outstanding center director at Ft. Hood is one of the "go-to" folks the military command depends on.
In the Green Room, where Kahne signed autographs and posed for photos, I talked to some Dominos Pizza representatives. They told me that 6 years ago Robin asked them to provide some pizzas for troops who had just returned. "That was 14,000 pizzas ago," one of them told me. Great story, I thought, and good call. Nothing like a little good will to build consumer affinity. I thanked them for their generosity, and the rep told me, "No thanks needed. We do it because it matters. Ft. Hood matters."
It does. It matters to the dog handler and his beautiful pooches who'd already done one tour to Iraq and were getting ready to deploy to Afghanistan this summer. "I'll be fine," the handler said. "She takes care of me." God speed.
It matters to the sergeant who'd just recently returned from Afghanistan. He stood with his wife and Kahne for a photo. The wife was beaming, but he had that look we see so often from these folks. Simple act of kindness on Kasey's part, but sacrifice was written all over the faces of this military couple who looked years older than .
I love this job, because whenever I get a bit cynical or wrapped up in my own nonsense, I meet people who make my life worthwhile.
Ft. Hood matters. THEY matter. They're why we do what we do.

Casio launches Exilim EX-H10 compact ultrazoom
Casio announced this morning that it will soon be getting into the blossoming compact ultrazoom market with the launch of the 10x zoom Casio Exilim EX-H10.
Following a format familiar to many of its competitors, the H10 features a wide-angle zoom lens covering the 35mm equivalent of 24-240mm. Images are captured via a 12.1 megapixel CCD imager that's also capable of laying down 720p HD video at 30 fps.
A 3.0 inch, 230,000 dot LCD handles shot composition duties, and the H10 rounds out its basic specs with the inclusion of sensor-shifting image stabilization and an SD/SDHC media slot.
Ultrazoom features, ultracompact build
Casio's latest-gen Exilim Engine 4.0 processor drives the H10's feature set, with an array of soft features including an update of Casio's Dynamic Photo function (which automatically slices backgrounds from subjects, a la Photoshop) and a new Landscape shooting mode that processes images to boost saturation and cut haze.
In the same vein, Casio is highlighting this processor's basic performance and shooting speed advantages, as well as its impressive power management. According to Casio, the H10 is good for 1,000 CIPA-standard captures on a single charge of its li-ion battery pack.
When it comes to compact ultrazooms, the "compact" portion of the equation is at least as important to many users as the "ultrazoom" component. In the case of the H10, Casio lists the new model at under an inch thick, placing it among the thinnest ultrazooms out there at the time of this writing.
Beyond the basics, we're still a little short on shooting-mode specs at this point. Presumably the H10 will, like most of its consumer-friendly competitors, feature Casio's standard complement of auto-exposure modes – including Best Shot and Auto Best Shot scene preset settings.
Pricing and availability
All in all, the H10 – which will be available in black only – is an impressively stylish little camera from Casio, a manufacturer that has been on the rise in the last year with the launch of several technologically unique high-speed compact cameras. With this in mind, it seems a bit of an odd choice that Casio didn't, as far as we can tell at this point, opt to include any high-speed still or video functions in this model.
Even so, with a 10x wide-angle lens, a large LCD, 720p video capture, and image stabilization, the H10 should be well set to compete with rivals from the likes of Panasonic, Canon, Samsung, and Olympus when it hits stores in July. Expect a retail price just under the $300 mark.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Senior safety Daniel Fitzpatrick was named to The Sports Network's FCS Preseason All-American Team, while defensive end Anthony Bass made the publication's Third Team.
Fitzpatrick made the squad following a season in which he picked off six passes during the regular season and added two more in the team's first round FCS Playoff victory over Butler. The eight total interceptions led all Division I players (FBS or FCS). Of those eight interceptions the junior returned three for touchdowns, scoring a 50-yarder against Jackson State in the Southern Heritage Classic in Memphis, returning what proved to be the game-winner 20 yards at UT Martin and a 26-yarder at Butler.
He added a season-high nine tackles twice during the season, in a victory at nationally-ranked Jacksonville State and against nationally-ranked Eastern Illinois in the playoffs.
The strong safety finished the year with 75 tackles (52 solo), 5.5 TFL and eight pass breakups, leading TSU to a playoff victory for the first time since 1986.
Bass, the OVC Defensive Player of the Year, also earned Third Team honors after helping anchor a defense that ranked sixth nationally in total defense (296.9 yards/game) and seventh in scoring defense (18.1 points/game). Bass ranked 29th nationally in sacks/game (0.7) and overall on the season had 34 tackles, 14.5 tackles-for-loss, 10.0 sacks, two forced fumbles and recoveries, six quarterback hurries, four pass breakups, a blocked kick and a safety.

New Reworked Contourlines
(deutsche Version weiter unten für email Empfänger) Well, actually I wanted to post this message already last week, but the updates took much longer than I first expected. So here we go:
Already last week, all European maps (except map of Europe) got new/reworked contourlines. While in the Alps, there was no change as the data stayed the same, all other European country maps, now also use data from viefinderpanoramas.org - hence artefacts and holes should be a thing of the past (note, in general the quality in Europe was already pretty high). Much much better contourlines are now in New Zealand and Australia, here the quality is about as good as in Europe now. Also the contourlines of Africa and South America and Asia are much much better now. Mountaineous regions are now more or less everywhere pretty good, some less good/clean contourlines remain in rather flat regions.
The contourlines for the full map of Europe are also updated, and now also Iceland and other "exotic" European countries are covered with contourlines. This means that if you update the map of Europe, you will also need to update the contourlines (usually updating the map data, and running the new installer is enough). Same goes for all other countries where contourlines are not included in the installer (except North America).
North America contourlines remain unchanged for now, but I'm pretty positive that within a few weeks I can also publish updates for them.
Also for all maps that come with contourlines integrated and included in the installer - I rendered the contourlines separately for the Velomaps. This means should you accidentally install Velomap and Openmtbmap of the same country both including contourlines, there is no problem (except one more map on your GPS). For all contourline maps, that are a separate download, you however still have to watch out to only send the contourlines once.
New Country Maps
Besides I added country maps for Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia and Uruguay in South America. All of course with contourlines integrated.
In Africa I added contourlines for Somalia, and with Congo, Egypt, Ethiopia, Liberia and Nigeria new countries.
Other map improvements
Already last week, I updated the racing layout for the Velomaps a bit more, to give even better contrast.
Better naming for restaurants and include ref for emergency access points into the name.
Rework of National Parks // Nature Reserves
Improving how various towers look in the map.
So if you like my work, I'm allways happy about anyone donating and getting a membership. More than 70% of the recipients of this email, have never donated to openmtbmap/velomap. Please support my work by getting a membership - only then I can continue to improve the maps, and soon also offer maps for mobile devices.

The best animated film I saw this year wasn't feature length. It was John Kahrs' short film, Paperman. The short follows the story of a lonely young man in New York City, whose destiny takes an unexpected turn after a chance meeting with a beautiful woman on his morning commute. Convinced the girl of his dreams is gone forever, he gets a second chance when he spots her in a skyscraper window across the avenue from his office, and sets out to get her attention. Using a revolutionary technique of blending 2D and 3D, Paperman isn't only gorgeous, but it's also hopelessly romantic. I felt bad for Wreck-It Ralph since it had to follow this short. Disney has now posted Paperman online, and while it's only 2D, you need to take the 6 minutes and 34 seconds to watch it right now. It will make your day.
Hit the jump to watch Paperman, which is nominated for Best Animated Short Film.

Innocent Bronx Girl Chased Off Balcony & Dies For Delivering Presents To Her Boyfriend's Cousin's 3-Year-Old Daughter!
"A young Bronx woman was chased off a balcony and fell 14 stories to her death while trying to deliver birthday presents to a friend's 3-year-old daughter, cops said. "It was so loud that I thought someone threw a TV out the window and it landed on the hood of a car," said neighbor Sheryl Thomas. Sienna Edwards, 20, carried the gifts up to the 179th Street apartment Thursday night as a favor to her boyfriend's cousin, who couldn't go himself because his daughter's mother had taken out an order of protection against him. When Edwards got upstairs, the birthday girl's mother, Kenya Edmonds, 23, began to threaten and attack her, cops said" -NyPost

The Göteborg Ballet visiting Göteborgs Stadsteater.
Premiere 4 May "She was black" by Mats Ek, to the accompaniment of the music dedicated by the Polish composer, Henryk Górecki, to the Black Madonna. The music strikes a strident, tragic note and accentuates the mood of Ek's choreography, which is a veritable explosion of movement and feeling.
Tero Saarinen's work Georgia is full of energy, strength and joie de vivre, a rich tribute to the returning light of spring. The two ballets are in complete contrast to each other.

Pure Egyptian combed cotton - 500gsm
Silky soft and fluffy, our Cleopatra Egyptian cotton range offers an appealing combination of affordable luxury and easy-care durability. It's everything you want in a towel, and it's no surprise that Cleopatra is a firm favourite with BB&B customers.
Combed cotton: a process completed before the fibre is woven, removing the very short fibres leaving long, smooth and continuous strands.
A superior quality yarn that is durable and very soft.
Less lint / high absorbency.
Coordinating items under separate listings:
Cleopatra Bath Sheet: 80x160cm 500gsm
Cleopatra Hand Towel: 40x60cm 500gsm
Cleopatra Face Cloth: 33x33cm 500gsm
Cleopatra Bathmat: 80x50cm 500gsm
Made in Egypt
Most detergents contain optical brighteners which should not be used on the Cleopatra range. If you prefer to use a detergent, only mild detergents should be used. Avoid using fabric softeners as this may reduce the absorbency of this product and affect its lifespan.
It is recommended to cold wash for the majority of the cycles, however a warm machine wash every now and then will help break up any body oils that may have been absorbed during use.
It is recommended to tumble dry your towels regularly. To avoid over-drying, a lower setting is always recommended. If you prefer to line dry, take it off the line before it is completely dry and finish it off in the dryer to give a fluffy finish. Remember, tumble drying generally improves the absorbency of the pile whilst keeping your towel soft and fluffy.

I've recently decided to get back into the field of study of computer science. That means I have another 3 or 4 semester before i get my AAS. Once I finish this it is suppose to give me enough knowledge to obtain an entry level job.
Well I was wondering what type of things an entry level programmer would be doing. Along with what type of things would be good to have in a portfolio to show the person who interviewing you.
Lastly, would freelancing be a better start right out of college? If so does anyone suggest a site that is actually pretty good for .net developers?
