You need to have some basic understanding of iMovie and here's some info that might help. Remember though, the students will often know more and can work it out for themselves, you don't have to be the expert. You need to plan for and allow them to use video as an alternative way of expressing their understanding.

There are some great tips here for using Google Apps in your classroom. For example: #13. Mystery Hangouts. Using Hangouts – Google's video chat service — classes from different parts of the country or the world can play this "guess where we are" game.

Speed Kills by Michael Angelo Batio
Speed Kills is the first complete overhaul of the original Speed Kills program. The original course was created in 1991 by Michael Angelo Batio and soon gained the reputation as "the shredder's bible." It explains advanced picking techniques as taught by the fastest guitarist on the planet. Speed Kills was revised in 2010.
The key to speed and accuracy is to pay attention to a few precise details of both the picking and fretting hands. Without proper instructions you'll never understand these details- and who could be better at explaining this stuff than "The World's Fastest Shredder"? (according to Guitar World Magazine)
Speed Kills 2010 by Michael Angelo Batio Explains These Techniques
New Techniques
Guitar World Readers' Poll, October 2011 chose Michael Angelo Batio as the number one Fastest Guitarist of All Time
Speed Kills
This package includes on-screen animated tab, printable booklet, Guitar Pro computer files, chapter guide, and a 65 minute program.

- The most common mistake made in memorizing scripture is to repeat a Bible verse over and over. Repetition is not the most effective method for memorization.
- We have tried, tested and torn apart every technique and strategy used by competitive memory experts to find the fastest, easiest and most direct way for you to memorize Bible scripture.
- After adapting the methods used by the world's leading memory experts, we will never commit a Bible verse to memory in the same way again. And nor will you.
The gift of the Lord's word was designed to serve us when we need it the most. Having the ability to recite
that word when we need it in our lives should be the goal of every Christian.
Why listen to BIBLE verse MEMORY AUDIOS™?
3 reasons why you should read on...
(click the right arrow to view them all)
How valuable is your time? Do you want to repeat and review scripture fifty times to memorize it? Or would you prefer to listen to a customized memory audio™ just once?
Repetition and rote learning are painfully slow. So we learnt and tested every memory technique you can think of 'major system', 'peg system', 'mnemonics', 'memory palace' , songs, rhymes, poems, flash cards, software, the list goes on and on.
Nothing excited us more than adapting these and creating the quickest way to commit Bible verses to memory. We tested our method on a sample of people - Christians and non-Christians. We were blown away by the results.
Not only did they commit Bible verses to memory after listening to a customized audio just once, they were able to recall a particular verse one day, one week and even one month later - without any further study!
The secret of memorization is visualization and association.
Memory audios are designed to work in the same way your memory does, making it the simplest and easiest method to use. And we've done all the work for you, meaning you start memorizing as soon as you hit play.
We use expert memory techniques to convert any word into an image, and then link those images together using a story.
The Lord gave us the biggest clue about how to memorize His word when the Bible was first created. Using stories as the foundation to commit verse to memory is part of the secret.
When you visualize the story in a good book or when you watch a movie, you remember it without even trying. That's how powerful visualizing a story can be, and that's how easy memory audios make it to memorize scripture.
Study typically involves sitting at a desk with a book, and as few distractions as possible. You need to fit your daily schedule around your study. It's inflexible.
Because memory audios download to your iPhone, iPod or any other MP3 player, you'll be able to listen to your audio on the bus, in the park, or lying in bed. There's no need for flashcards or even a pen and paper.
We want everyone to use expert memory techniques in the easiest format possible. Whether you're 8 years old or 80 years old, you'll be able to memorize scripture whenever or wherever you like.
You can literally memorize Bible verses with your eyes closed. What could be more convenient than that?
We guarantee that this is the fastest, easiest and most convenient way to memorize scripture.
How do Memory Audios™ make it easier to memorize scripture?
Expert memory techniques or 'mnemonics' are based on mental imagery. You visualize what you need to remember. We didn't invent these methods; they've been used since Ancient Greece and proven by 50 years of scientific research. Memory Audios™ simply use these amazingly effective techniques and tell you exactly what to visualize to remember a specific Bible verse. You only need to listen to the audio and picture what's described. It is that easy!
Can you show me more evidence of how mental imagery works in memorization?
You can prove it to yourself. Recall your favorite movie or book and think about the main characters and story. Do you notice how you remember them? You create a mental image. You 'see' them in your mind. The human memory naturally works by using mental imagery.
Scientific studies at universities around the world have proven the effectiveness of mental imagery memory techniques. We've read so many research papers that we almost went cross-eyed. Don't worry – we created a free summary report of the findings for you. Check it out here.
How do Memory Audios™ work exactly?
Memory Audios™ are MP3 audio files that you can listen to on your iPod, iPhone or computer. They tell you precisely what to imagine in your mind in order to memorize a Bible verse.
The keys to memorization are visualization and association. Each word is translated into a tangible image that you can visualize, and then associated with the next word by linking the images with a story. This is called the Link and Story Method of memorization.
100 popular Bible verses have been transformed into a series of images and then linked using a vividly described story. All you need to do is listen as the story and images are described, create a clear mental picture of them, and your amazing memory will do the rest. You will be able to literally learn with your eyes closed!
There is a separate MP3 for each of the 100 Bible verses. Try the 5 free sample audios for yourself right now.
Why should I purchase the Memory Audio™ product?
Our goal when we designed Memory Audios™ was to create the fastest, easiest and most convenient way for you to memorize scripture. And that's what we've done. You just listen to an audio and visualize the images and story. Goodbye to boring repetition and rote learning.
You can listen to Memory Audios™ anywhere. On the bus, in the car, or in bed with your eyes closed. It doesn't get any more convenient.
And best of all, we've saved you many, many hours of work by creating all of the memory stories for you.That's why we know $47 is such an amazing price. Your valuable time is worth far more than that!

"Loved how I was able to personalize my thank you card with pictures from my wedding. They look so professional and beautiful!"
"My husband and I had fun designing these when we got our wedding photos back. There were so many great styles but we picKed this one due to the simplicity, lovely fonts and opportunity to share photos with guests. We ordered coordinating return address labels in the same fonts. We were very happy with the final results and all the feedback from friends & family has been very positive, especially from those who could not attend the wedding. The size of the card was just fine for us. Be aware that the photos are small and choose photos accordingly: the white polka dots on the bridesmaids' rain boots in one of the photos didn't come through but that is a tiny detail."
"The cards turned out perfect. The picture was great and worked very well with the paper that was used. Everyone that received the thank you's loved them!"
"Ordered these thank you cards, they arrived in no time. Can't wait to send these out!! I will definitely order more soon!!"
"Pleasantly surprised how beautiful they turned out. They were smaller than I anticipated, but that was my fault for not looking at the size before ordering. They are perfect and I can't wait to get them in the mail!"

A team strategy of "together everyone achieves more" is the mind-set Doug Rupp has used as a teacher and full-time grain farmer based in northwest Ohio, near Stryker.
"People I respect and have learned from are all on my team," says Rupp, who taught business and free enterprise classes for 30 years while coaching wrestling, running a painting contracting business and building the farm operation. Rupp continues to emphasize the value of teamwork by tapping into the expertise of his agronomist, banker, lawyer, part-time employee Kelsey Stamm and, most importantly, his wife, Nancy, who serves as partner and financial manager.
Always the student, Rupp is partnering with Farm Journal Media in the Ultimate Farm Quest. The new endeavor matched the Rupps with experts to help them reach the next level with their management, marketing and production practices.
The Rupps' team includes: Chip Flory, editor and publisher of Pro Farmer, a newsletter that covers agricultural markets and policies and is published by Farm Journal Media; Missy Bauer, Farm Journal associate field agronomist; and Barry Ward, leader of production business management at Ohio State University.
The Rupps' desire for good counsel and their ability to sift through information and make decisions that move their farm business forward set them apart from many operators, Ward says.
"They're extremely business-minded, self-disciplined and able to address the big picture aspects as well as the details," Ward says.
The Rupps, both 62, are fiscally conservative, but they are quick to try new technology and production practices to add to their bottom line. Variable-rate seeding, RTK networks, yield mapping and fertilizer by the row are just a few of the technologies the Rupps have evaluated and then adopted.
The Rupps' crop yields are above average for their area, Bauer says. More importantly, "everything they do agronomically ties back into profitability," she adds.
A crucial aspect of profitability is focusing on marketing to extract the most value from each crop.
"They've got a good plan and know the financial goals they want to reach," Flory says.

Apple is yet again making a push for the enormous, spaceship-like campus with a brand new report that outlines the advantages of assembling the 2.8 million square foot complex.
The report, prepared for Apple by Keyser Marston Associates, outlines the economic gains to Cupertino – including business for area vendors, building jobs, tax income for the city, and more.
That report argues that Apple's new campus – dubbed Apple Campus 2 or the "spaceship" building for its annular design – is "vital to the region" because it will: enable Apple to stay in Cupertino; add about 7,400 high quality jobs to the area; raise revenue for local companies; and boost the taxes paid to Cupertino.
"Apple's 16,000 workers make it Cupertino's biggest single employer, accounting for around 40 percent of the city's job base," the report said. "Indirect and induced impacts support an added 420 jobs in the city in 2012. With the conclusion of Apple Campus 2, Apple is expected to support more than 24,000 jobs in Cupertino alone."
When Apple Campus 2 was first pitched by Steve Jobs he envisioned having employees move in by the end. A delay however, pushed construction to a move and 2014 -in date until 2016.
Apple estimated that construction will create 9,200 full time jobs over three years. Apple additionally vowed to direct its contractors to designate Cupertino as the point of sale for construction materials.
"Additionally, Apple will pay about $10.6 million of 'building tax' to the City pursuant to Chapter 3.32 of the city's municipal code," the report said. "The combined total of these two sources alone is $24.5 million, which will be deposited into the city's General Fund and accessible for discretionary city expenditures."
Meanwhile, the building could additionally help boost spending at area companies by about $2 billion when completed, the report found.
Apple also made a case for its new building in a May 2012 leaflet given out to its neighbors. The file contained a letter from Apple CFO Peter Oppenheimer, who insisted that "regard for our neighbors was a priority as we designed Apple Campus 2."
Google on Monday upgraded its Chrome browser for iPad and iPhone to version 27, bringing improvements and several new features. For starters, the Web giant revamped the voice search feature, now letting you get results back and talk your query.
Now, Apple has about 3,000 employees placed at its 1 Infinite Loop headquarters. Another 13,000 workers are placed in leased space throughout Cupertino and nearby cities. Apple Campus 2 will permit these employees to work under one roof (though 1 Infinite Loop will remain) on acreage that Apple bought from Hewlett-Packard several years ago.
The whole procedure for searching the Web should now be faster. The app will have the ability to recognize what you say and stream the text back in real-time, Google said. In addition, you'll now have the ability to get the answers for your query talked back to you.
iOS users became more and more interested in jailbreaking their device as they are unhappy with the apps given by the Apple Store. The truth is that Apple has an amazing offer, but it seems that it is not enough, especially when Cydia Store comes with something better.
Having a jailbroken iOS device and taking advantage of the third-party store offer of Cydia download is amazing, not only because the devices released from the Apple boundaries but also because the users have more apps and tweaks to choose from.
Jailbroken devices' user must have noticed that apps from Cydia Store don't have the delete "X" when in jiggle mode. This is the reason why there is CyDelete, a very useful app which allows the user to delete Cydia apps from the iOS springboard as he used to do with the apps from the App Store.
Everybody is aware of the fact that backing up the Cydia packages is essential in order not to lose the purchased and also the free downloads by accident. PkgBackup is the perfect app for this as it guarantees reliable backups of everything on the iPad.
Winterboard is a great Cydia app which allows the user to theme and change the design of different iOS elements. Fortunately, there is a great number of Winterboard themes available with Cydia. In addition, other tweaks can use the Winterboard app itself in order to apply changes to iOS.
These are just three of the amazing apps offered by Cydia. The number of the apps is enormous, and all users are able to satisfy their needs with this great third party store. Regarding the price of the app you must know that many of them can be downloaded free of charge. However, there are as well many apps that can be purchased after paying a small amount of many. But you must not worry, as the charge for the Cydia Apps as insignificant and everybody can afford downloading them.
You are likely knowledgeable about how irritating it would be to need to go on the Wi-Fi system to be able to utilize the support, should you use Face-time frequently. It's still a huge issue for anyone novices, or individual do not need jailbreak their iPhones, even though you may Facetime with some program on you jailbreak iPhone.
For me, if your mobile phone cannot make movie call on the move (3G Face-time), the video call function is worthless, because after I was in the home and within work, I really can use Gmail, MSN and several other applications to create a video call on COMPUTER.
And today this dilemma can get fixed with iOS 5 based on the report.
The information first revealed on 9to5mac.com it is stated readers post a screenshot, where iOS 5 Displays an alert box requesting the person to start data or Wi-Fi to work with FaceTime. By experimenting using the iOS 5 Choices in Settings->; General->;Network, we have discovered the way to duplicate the 'problem': turn-off Cellular Information within the System tab, available FaceTime's prefs inside the Configurations application, and also you must have the alert box. Attempt to show FaceTime on / off again, ensuring Cellular Information continues to be set to off, should it not come up. IOS 5 will let you know which you'll need data (3G) or Wi-Fi to work with FaceTime.
This really is huge news for iPad and iPhone owners, we could eventually create the phone anytime anyplace we enjoy. But do not get happy too soon, the 3G Face-time cannot be recognized by Apple ISO 5 just; it can also be up to companies to enable it (like Tethering or VoIP programs). Apple just plans on empowering 3G Face-time for these carriers that enable it. Companies, notably within the Middle-east, have been able to really get FaceTime use to be blocked by Apple, although it was WLAN – only.
Therefore, when the companies inside your state have obstructed the 3G Face-time attribute on IOS 5, the left two methods to create video phone on the move might be jailbreak your iPhone or utilize a cellular MiFi hotspot.
Customers with jailbroken devices (iOS 4.x) have always been able to modify FaceTime to go across the constraint, using mods for example My3G. Check this out, if you're thinking about setting it-up.
Make use of a cellular MiFi hot-spot means requires a portable 3G Modem device in your wallet that may change SIM Card's 3G signal to Wi-Fi signal, after which there usually is going to be Wi-Fi wherever you-go. The quickest mobile 3G Modem is around 42 Mbps right now, so the quality may probably be clear and easy, in case your companies can supply enough 3G link speed.
IPhone resetting is providing services of cell repairing within affordable ideals. You may get information for their providers on the web from websites or for additional information you'll be able to contact with them straight.

All people who own an iOS device have been thinking at least once about jailbreaking it. The truth is that Apple offers a variety of interesting apps, but once the iOS users become familiar with what jailbreaking their devices means and with Cydia downloads, they begin to consider giving up the Apple App Store.
Jailbreaking an iOS device is not a difficult action, as it does not involve anything that cannot be completed by any user. However, if there are people interested in completing this process, but they are not familiar with it at all, the variety of tutorials and articles regarding this problem might help them to do a great job.
Once the jailbreaking process is finished, there is nothing much left to do, except choosing which apps offered by Cydia might help you enjoy your device even more, and get them. Here are a few great apps that deserve to be downloaded:
Considered by many one of the best Cydia apps, SBSettings helps iOS users to turn WiFi or Bluetooth on/off, to change the brightness, or to switch to Airplane mode in a couple of seconds, by simply swiping across the status bar, tapping the settings icon in the drop-down menu, and perform ing the changes, without opening the Settings app and searching through other several menus.
The app has a variety of customizations, and also extra settings icons that can be easily downloaded from Cydia.
Many people are interested in having an app which allows them to block calls or messages on your iPhone. If a device, which is not jailbroken, does not offer too many possibilities, users owning an unlocked one can easily choose iBlacklist.
With this app, the user is able to create blacklists of callers they choose to block being different ways to do that such as, sending to voicemail, giving a busy signal, or hanging up. The list can be created for voice calls, text messages, MMS, iMessage, and FaceTime. In addition, the users can create whitelists, in order to allow calls or messages only from certain people.
The app might seem pricey for many as it costs 12$, but there are users who believe that this is a good deal, iBlacklist offering them the possibility of having a total control over who can ring their iPhones.
These are just two of the many amazing apps that everybody can have after jailbreaking their devices and download Cydia.

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) - The principal of a Tucson high school is accused of assaulting a teenage boy who's dating his stepdaughter.
Tucson police say Sahuaro High School Principal Christopher Bonn was cited and released Tuesday afternoon.
Police say the 40-year-old Bonn reportedly discovered his stepdaughter sneaked out of the house sometime late Sunday or early Monday and waited for her to return home.
Bonn allegedly saw the pair park near his home around 4 a.m. Monday and walked up to the vehicle.
Bonn says he thought he saw the boy reaching for something in the center console and believed it could be a gun, so he punched him to prevent that possibility.
Tucson Unified School District officials say Bonn has been "assigned to home" while they review the incident to determine appropriate action.
Statement by TUSD
Tucson Unified School District has learned that Sahuaro High School Principal Chris Bonn was charged with a misdemeanor crime involving an altercation with a minor. The protection of our students is a priority for TUSD and any behavior that threatens that protection is completely inappropriate and unacceptable. Dr. Bonn has been assigned to home pending a review of the facts of the situation. While the altercation was an off-duty incident that occurred outside of any TUSD property, the district is taking this measure to ensure our students are safe at school. Once the incident is reviewed by district leadership, appropriate action will be taken.

What is the relationship between circumcision and cancer of the penis?
The predicted lifetime risk of cancer of the penis in an uncircumcised man is one in 600 in the U.S. Cancer of the penis carries a mortality rate as high as 25%. This cancer occurs almost exclusively in uncircumcised men. In five major research studies, no man who had been circumcised as a newborn developed cancer of the penis. Human papillomavirus types 16 and 18, which are sexually transmitted, are involved in cancer of the penis. That is why routine vaccination against HPV is recommended for both boys and girls.

Dr. Dennis George's Ratings
I've been seeing Dr. George for about 7 yrs., and it took me a long time to find such a caring doctor like him. He passed away of cancer Friday and I can not imagine what I'll do without his guidance in my life. He has had 2 new doctors helping out in his office lately, and so far, so good. But as for not having Dr. George there to help me make all the right medical decisions anymore, I do not know what I'll do!! He wasn't just my doctor, he was a friend. He cared for every patient he had. And I know he left me in good hands. I will miss him so much, God Bless!!!

DS has had a rash for over a week. I've tried everything to treat it. (i.e. - butt paste, breast milk, a&d, desitin purple tube, malox, cleaning with warm water instead of wipe) The hardest part is keeping him in a clean diaper. He leaks a little poop when he passes gas (he's very gassy) and constant bowel movements (at least 3 a day). I try my hardest to change is diaper when I know it's dirty. Just now I changed it twice in 10 minutes because he passed a little poop with gas. I'm not sure if it is now a yeast rash or not. It's red with raised bumps around the irritated area.
The office is closed tomorrow and I have no idea when I would get an appointment. Should I take him to our ER to be seen for it? Our ER is in the same hospital his pedi's office is. Or, if it is yeast, should I try to treat it at home first?

Robert W. Berliner Professor of Medicine (Cardiology) and Professor of Cell Biology; Director, Yale Cardiovascular Research Center
Research Interests
Angiogenesis; Arteriogenesis; Lymphangiogenesis; Endothelial Signaling; tyrosine kinase signaling; vascular development; FGF; VEGF; endocytosis
Current Projects
- Molecular mechanisms of fibroblast growth factors (FGF)-dependent regulation of vascular integrity and arteriogenesis. These studies focus on molecular details of FGF-R signaling including receptor endocytosis and trafficking and on FGF-dependent maintenance of VE-cadherin presence in cell-cell junctions. Supported by NIH R01 HL53793
- Arterial branching morphogenesis. These studies are focused on the role of synectin (GIPC), a PDZ-domain containing scaffold molecule regulation of arteriogenesis and arterial branching in development and in adult tissues. Specific problems examined include molecular mechanism of synectin-dependent regulation of VEGF signaling and cell type-specificity of effect. The latter involves generation and analysis of tissue-specific synectin knockouts and synectin null ES cells. Supported by R01 HL84619
- Syndecan signaling in endothelial cells. The project focuses on syndecan-4 signaling, a long standing interest in the lab. Two principle pathways being examined are the regulation of mTOR complex 2 assembly and Akt activation and Rac1 activation and cell motility. Supported by R01 HL53793
- Role of angiogenic inhibitors in the development of pulmonary hypertension. In this collaborative project with Dr Fred Wigley's laboratory at Johns Hopkins we are examining the. Prevalence of circulating angiogenic inhibitors in patients with scleroderma and their effect on the natural history of disease. Supported by NIH SCCOR P50 HL084946
- Modulation of arteriogenic and metabolic environment in ischemia. The goal of this multi-laboratory collaborative project si to examine therapeutic approaches to preservation of tissue function by modulation of its metabolic state and arterial blood supply. Collaborating laboratories include Peter Carmeliet (European Coordinator, Vesalius Research Center, University of Leuven, Belgium), Holger Gerhardt (Cancer Research UK, London, UK), Luisa Iruela-Arispe (UCLA), Frank Giordano (Yale University) and A. Eichmann (College de France, Paris). Supprted by Leducq Foundation ARTEMIS Network
Research Summary
The two principle research themes in the lab are the mechanisms of arterial formation and angiogenic growth factor signaling. These process are investigated at all levels, including in vitro signaling studies, in vivo mouse transgenic and knock-out models and translational studies in larger animal models and early phase clinical trials.
Extensive Research Description
There are 3 major areas of research in my lab:
- Regulation of arterial development and branching morphogenesis The purpose of these studies is to elucidate molecular pathways leading to arterial specification of the endothelium and formation of arterial vasculature. We have recently demonstrated that knockout of synectin, a PDZ protein involved in endosomal trafficking of a number of TK receptor complexes leads to selective reduction in arterial morphogenesis and vascular branching (Chittenden et al Dev Cell, 2006). We have now demonstrated that synectin controls retrograde trafficking of VEGF-R2 containing endosomes via its binding to myosin-VI. Interestingly, myosin-VI knockout in mice or knockdown in zebrafish leads to the same arteriopenic phenotype. This abnormal receptor trafficking results in impaired activation of one of VEGF-R2 signaling pathways that appears to be crucial for arterial specification. Rescue of this aspect of VEGF signaling fully restores arterial morphogenesis not only in synectin null or myosin-VI null mice but in other models of poor arterial development. Thus, this may be the critical pathways specifying arterial formation. Funding: NHLBI (2007-2012)
- Regulation of vascular maintenance. It has not been realized until recently that maintenance of vascular integrity is an active process requiring an ongoing signaling. We have been able to demonstrate that suppression of basal FGF signaling in endothelial cells results in loss of cell-cell contacts and loss of endothelium from the vascular wall (Murakami et al. JCI 2008). The molecular events involved include FGF regulation of VE-cadherin phosphorylation and suppression of local Src activation. Current efforts are focused on characterization of the FGF signaling-VE-cadherin link and elucidation of other pathways regulating VE-cadherin maintenance t the plasma cell membrane Funding: NHLBI (2008-2013).
- Syndecan-4 signaling. Over the years my lab has demonstrated that syndecan-4 plays a critical role in regulation of FGF signaling (Horowitz, JCB '02 and many others) and that this involves regulation of its trafficking to the plasma membrane rafts and endocytosis among other events (Tkachenko JBC '02, JCS '04, Circ Res '06). Recently we discovered that in addition to its role in FGF signaling syndecan-4 controls formation of mTOR complex 2 and activation of the Akt pathway (Partovian et a l Mol Cell '08). Among many interesting phenotypes in syndecan-4 null is mice is arterial hypertension (lack of Akt activation leads to suppressed NO production) and defective tumor but not ischemic angiogenesis. We are currently examining molecular events involved in syndecan-4 dependent regulation of mTORC2 formation that apparently include activation of RhoG via a novel mechanism involving sequestration of Rho-GDI (JCB, '09) Funding: NHLBI (2008-2013)
- Role of Raf1 and MAPK signaling in regulation of arterial specification: We find that PI3K has the ability to inhibit MAPK signaling by phosphorylating Raf1 and that activation of RAf1 leads to profound stimulation of arterial growth and arterial specification. The molecular details of this pathways are being examined in a variety of transgenic mice models
- Activation of arteriogenesis in arteriogenesis-resistant states: abnormal VEGF and other angiogenic growth factor signaling may be at the core of many events associated with advanced atherosclerosis, diabetes and other angiogenic signaling-resistant states. We are testing the concept that activation of arteriogenic signaling downstream of VEGF-R2 may promore arteriogenesis and become an effective therapeutic approach.

To the Parking Enforcement officer who wrote me and another resident citations on the 2000 block of Gough St. for parking in the cross-hatched area of handicapped parking spots; there are NO handicapped parking spots on the 2000 block of Gough St.
Now, if you are not familiar with how handicapped parking spots work on a street with side-by-side, back-in angle parking, let me tell you. In this situation, there would be TWO single parking spots between two signs which state "handicapped parking." One spot is for the handicapped driver's vehicle, and the other spot, which is cross-hatched, is to provide wheelchair access for said driver to the vehicle.
Both my vehicle and another one, were parked in two separate cross-hatched spots about five parking spots apart. You wrote two citations. However, there were no handicapped parking signs. What is more, there are none on the 2000 block of Gough St. There were signs up until 2 or three months ago, when the holders of those permits surrendered both of them.
The City then quickly came and removed the signs for both of the spots, as readily evidenced by the holes in the sidewalk where the crews cut the sign posts to the sidewalk.
Hence, the two former handicapped parking spots reverted back to four regular parking spots. What the City didn't do was erase the cross-hatching from the two spots which formerly were the part of the handicapped parking spot used for wheelchair access.
The cross-hatched spot where we parked are now both regular, valid parking spots.
Is it wrong to assume that since you are PARKING Enforcement, you would be strongly familiar with the types of parking you are charged with enforcing? If you had looked around at the whole picture, you may (and I use that term liberally) have noticed that.
Another time, you wrote me another such citation (which was dismissed), and I asked you why you didn't look at the situation around my car and you told me "that's not my job." I'm sorry, I had no idea that when the City hired you, they told you specifically that you were not to use common sense. That's just blatant, poor job performance.
Do you know what your poor job performance costs? Let me give you an idea. When you write citations like this one, I have to take time out of work, which means I lose leave that I work hard to earn. My department then has to pay overtime to someone to fill my spot while I'm in court disputing this citation.
The City then spends money to process the citation, enter it in the court system, and set me up with a hearing date. It then costs the City money to pay the time the judge spends hearing my case. When I show up with pictures illustrating how much you were not paying any attention to what you were doing, it costs the City for the court costs when the case is dismissed. Since the City has quite an interest lately in cost effectiveness, may I suggest that time would be immeasurably more effectively spent hearing legitimate cases?
Multiply by the number of other people to whom you've written such citations, because I'm far from the only one, and you've done some real measurable damage to the taxpaying citizens the City depends on to continue living here so it can try to fill its deficit-blighted coffers.
You have cost the citizens of this neighborhood time and money, and you've also cost the City money in citations that should never have been written if you had some common sense and had done a proper job.
What is more, is that you have been doing this for at least the past five years in my neighborhood. Does no one hold you accountable? The judges have continually dismissed these ridiculous citations. We have called our City Council persons. We have made complaints to Parking Enforcement. Why do your supervisors not hold you accountable?
Do you know what I do for a living? I am a public service, 911 paramedic. Do you know what my job is? I put people on ECG monitors, and occasionally, I have to shock them. I also start IV's on people and occasionally, I give some very strong drugs. Do you know what happens if I don't pay attention? I could really do some damage and hurt someone.
It's a good thing that my Captain, and the Chief of my department hold me accountable for how I do my job. They didn't issue me common sense when I got hired, but they certainly make sure I exercise it when I do my job. And do you know what? As a City resident as well as being a public servant, I am really glad that you don't have my job.

Here's to you, Matt Murton.
We may not have a Tyler Colvin tag here at GROTA, but we sure as hell have one for Matt Murton.
Murton was a good baseball player -- which is to say, he wasn't a great one. His power was unimpressive, his defense was sort of roundabout, and he wasn't exactly quick. But if Matt excelled at any of the five tools so often referenced in baseball, it was hitting for average.
In 160 plate appearances at age 23 (that is really, really young), Murton hit .321 with just 22 strikeouts. The next year, he hit .297 in 508 plate appearances over 144 games. Unfortunately, his MLB career would assume a downward trend from there, but the guy does have 272 more major league hits to his name than most people on this earth.
So if he's not in the major leagues anymore, why am I writing about him?
Congratulations, Matt, on a job well done!
Great Accomplishment
Thanks AJ for recognizing this great accomplishment!
Matt Murton NOT being a major league outfielder will remain to me one of the great mysteries of the world.
Second Cub to do well in Japan
Does anyone remember Tuffy Rhodes? Former Cub who tied the Japanese home run record. It seems like our players seem to do better in Japan.
The legend of Matt Murton
The legend of Matt Murton grows. He'll be in the majors soon again, even Jay Gibbons was kicked to the curb after his name was found in the Mitchell report and he bounced to Japan, did well, and now is back in the majors. It's only a matter of time, not sure why he just couldn't do it but sometimes it takes guys longer then others to "make it".
I always loved that guy, even
I always loved that guy, even when he sucked.

Does your portfolio hold a ticking time bomb?
With earnings season underway, investors are being reminded that nosebleed valuations can lead to serious losses.
By David Sterman
As earnings season gets underway, investors have been delivered a huge jolt in one of their favorite stocks. It shouldn't be a huge surprise, considering this stock was one of the most expensive stocks in the S&P 500 ($INX). But it's a wake-up call for any other pricey stocks. If you own one of them, be sure you are not getting in front of a train wreck.
The stock in question, Intuitive Surgical (ISRG), traded at around $580 in February. Thanks to a stunning one-day plunge, shares are suddenly flirting with the $400 mark. Tepid quarterly sales get the blame, though the size of this stock's drop is surely due to the stock's valuation.
Back in February, when this stock was making fresh highs, it was valued at more than 30 times projected 2013 profits. Considering that profits were on course to grow around 15% (from 2013 to 2014), that was an unconscionably high earnings multiple.
After conceding that second-quarter sales would likely trail estimates by $50 million, analysts have been busy ratcheting down future growth assumptions. A major concern: Sales grew 23.5% in the first quarter (on a year-over-year basis) but just 7% in the second quarter.
The ever-tougher spending environment in health care is a key factor (and something you should consider if you own other companies that make medical devices), and even after the huge plunge, investors need to tread lightly with this falling star.
Beyond the quarterly shortfall, analysts at JMP Securities noted that "the reasons cited (conservatism on the part of insurers/physicians and a tougher capital sales market) introduce longer term, more unpredictable concerns." That's not a healthy backdrop for any stock with a high price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio.
A compounded problem
As the ISRG situation reveals, high P/E stocks are vulnerable on two fronts.
If earnings estimates are lowered, then the ideal P/E for those lowered profits should also be lower. For example, a company that is boosting profits at a 30% pace and trades at 30 times its $3 a share earnings forecast would be worth $90. But if analysts lower their profit growth rate assumptions (and hence target earnings multiple) to 25 after a company lowers its earnings per share (EPS) guidance to $2.50, then shares would fall from $90 to $62.50 (2.50 x 25).
Across the S&P 400 and S&P 500, there are 93 companies that trade for more than 30 times projected 2013 profits. As we head into earnings season, these are precisely the companies that will be under the gun to deliver robust results and forward outlooks.
Here's a quick view of 15 pricey stocks.
Risks to consider: As an upside risk, pricey stocks are often heavily shorted, and further advances in this bull market could lead to short covering, which could push these stocks even higher.
Action to take: These companies are not only subject to so-called execution risk (that is, they must deliver on the high expectations in place for them), but they are also subject to market risk. If the market starts to head south, then these are precisely the kinds of stocks for which investors will "shoot first and ask questions later." That's why it pays to stick with stocks that represent solid values or dividend yields. They are far more likely to hold their own if the market weakens.

As opposed to Alias Barely Slowtero, who will always be 'short', at least according to

The central difficulty is in adopting too brief a view when it comes to the DOW. Over the long
haul, many have done very well, even without relatives on Wall Street, feeding them
the numbers. Patience and perseverance, my fellow Blogmericans, can outweigh
a few lucky rolls of the dice.
Thank you and good hunting.

My clients portfolio's are doing just fine. To get you through the summer and actually GROW your portfolio; look into utilities( best growth recently), pharmaceuticals, entertainment -theme parks. The 'cash cow' dividend stocks are great for your cash flow but you also need to spur some growth- can't be shorting all the time since this lowers the overall vaule of your holdings.

Comments about 18K Yellow Gold Cascade Ring with Diamond Accents:
I wanted something 'different' that didn't look like a traditional engagement ring, that I could wear separately from a wedding band on my right hand. However, I LOVE this ring so much that now I want to wear it everyday! The diamond accents catch the light all the time, and the main diamond is well-protected by the setting. I did NOT pick this out at all - my fiance did an amazing job of guessing what I would love. The only thing I don't like about it is that it does scratch easily - 18K gold being so soft. Also, the companion band makes the ring look very different - like a big wave! - and so I am going to get a different band with the same size accent diamonds set into it.

Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The advancement in wireless technology and micro/nano-fabrication techniques have created a tremendous opportunity for using miniaturized wireless microelectronic devices in novel point-of-care diagnostic and prosthetic systems for a variety of health and life science applications. These new devices take advantage of miniaturized sensor technology to interface directly with complex biological structures like tissues, cells and molecules. For example, micro-electro-mechanical systems, such as microelectrode arrays and microfluidic channels, allow the study of neurons and manipulation of blood cells, while microlenses are used in low-cost fluorescence imagers. Other emerging devices, like brain machine interfaces, are opening up new opportunities to gain a better understanding of the root causes of several neuronal disorders, like the Parkinson's disease, by extracting important biological parameters in freely moving animals. Such microsystems typically combine one or several application-specific integrated circuits with various sensor technologies into lightweight and self-contained formats that can easily be worn or implanted in the body to offer a very high level of functionality. The key requirements from such systems are: the extraction, the analysis, and the transmission of biological data in real time with excellent signal quality through a wireless connection. They are typically powered by a small battery, or by an inductive link, the power transmitter for which is external to the body, requiring extremely low power consumption to maximize the operational life expectancy.

Title: An Arch-shaped Intraoral Tongue Drive System with A Built-In System-on-a-Chip Tongue-Computer Interface
Authors: Hangue Park and Maysam Ghovanloo
Affiliations: GT-Bionics Lab, School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Georgia Institute of Technology, 85 5th St. NW, Atlanta, GA 30308, USA; E-Mail: email@example.com Abstract:
We present a new arch-shaped intraoral Tongue Drive System (iTDS-A) designed to be mounted on the buccal shelf in the user's mouth. The iTDS-A system-on-a-chip (SoC) amplifies and digitizes the raw magnetic sensor data from four 3-axis magnetoresistive bridge sensors, and sends it wirelessly to an external TDS universal interface (UI) via an inductive coil or a meander antenna. A built-in transmitter (Tx) employs a dual-band radio that can operate at either 27 or 432 MHz bands, whichever offers a more robust connection, with the help of a built-in super-regenerative receiver (SR-Rx) fand the TDS-UI. An accompanying FPGA generates data packets for the built-in Tx. The iTDS-A SoC was implemented in a 0.35-µm 2P3M Std. CMOS process and on average consumes 2.8 mW and 3.3 mW at 27 MHz and 432 MHz, respectively.

Abstract: We present a miniature optogenetic headstage for wirelessly stimulating the brain of transgenic rodents using 2 high-power stimulating LEDs and two electrophysiological recording channels. The headstage is powered with a small Lithium-ion battery and is built using low-cost commercial off-the-shelf components. Light stimulation uses customizable stimulation patterns that allow tuning light waveform intensity, frequency and duty cycle easily. The optical power that is sourced from the LEDs is delivered to target light-sensitized neurons using implantable optical fibers. Each LED can drain up to 150 mA, which results in an optical power density delivered to target neurons of 200 mW/mm2. The miniature design of this headstage, using rigid-flex PCBs, results into a lightweight and compact device that is suitable to conduct long-term experiments with freely moving models.

Title: Wireless Bio-sensors for Point-of-Care Diagnostic Applications
Authors: Ebrahim Ghafar-Zadeh et al.
Affiliation: Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, York University, Canada; E-Mail: firstname.lastname@example.com
Abstract: Recent advances of integrated bio-sensors have received significant interests from both industry and academia. Wireless bio-sensors offer the great advantages of continuous monitoring of biologically relevant conditions (e.g. Temperature and pH), metabolites and bio-molecules associated with various diseases such as Diabetes, brain cancer, Ischemia, and Alzheimer. In this review paper, we examine two major groups of miniaturized wireless bio-sensors - Implantable and wearable ones. Despite great progresses that have been made to develop wireless bio-sensors, the early detection of many diseases, remains to be a grand challenge from both technological and medical aspects. This paper addresses such challenges and introduces the state of art technology in this interdisciplinary approach.

Title: Wireless and Simultaneous Detections of Multiple Bio-Elements in a Single Sensor using Love Wave Biosensor
Author: Keekeun Lee, Professor, Ajou University, Korea
Abstract: A Love wave-based biosensor with a 440 MHz center frequency was developed for simultaneous detection of two different analytes of COMP and rabbit immunoglobulin G (hIgG) in a single sensor. The developed sensor consists of one-port surface acoustic wave (SAW) reflective delay lines, a poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) waveguide layer, and two sensitive films. The Love wave biosensor was wirelessly characterized by using two antennas and a network analyzer. Binding of the analytes to the sensitive layers induced a large change in the time positions of the original reflection peaks, mainly due to the mass loading effect. The assessed time shifts in reflection peaks were matched well with the predicted values from coupling of mode (COM) modeling. The sensitivities evaluated from the sensitive films were 22.84 deg/mg/ml for hIgG and 2.74 deg/mg/ml for COMP.

Schoolmates open West Cumbrian garage
Last updated at 20:01, Thursday, 26 April 2012
Two Cockermouth school friends, who have known each other since they were 12, have gone into business together.
Andrew Holliday and Barrie Studholme have opened Derwent Mills Garage on the town's Derwent Mills Industrial Estate.
The pair, who both went to Cockermouth School, are both qualified mechanics.
Andrew, 33, of Melbreak Avenue, previously worked at P&R Benn at Oakhurst Garage on Lamplugh Road.
Barrie, 34, originally of Broughton but who now lives at Wentworth Park, Workington, has worked at the Gote Garage in Gote Road and at Fairfield Garage in Station Road.
Andrew said: "Opening our own garage was something we always wanted to do as we wanted to be our own boss.
"We thought about it and tried to buy various different sites, but they never came off but then we found this location and got the go-ahead."
They said they hoped to be able to take on a secretary and an apprentice.
