Explore Galapagos' Isabela Island and marvel at the beautiful landscapes and quirky residents
As the youngest member of the Galapagos Islands, Isabela boasts a vast range of plant life, wildlife and landscapes that differ dramatically from the surrounding isles in the archipelago. Marvel at the sight and feeding habits of the rare marine iguanas, prehistoric-looking creatures that are not found anywhere else in the world, and delight in the antics of giant tortoises, blue-footed boobies, Galapagos penguins, cormorants, doves, finches, hawks and the fascinating Sally Lightfoot crabs - it's like a meet 'n' greet for some of the planets most unique creatures. Volcano-scarred landscapes provide the backdrop for this adventure as you retrace the footsteps of Charles Darwin on this four-day journey through an island that boasts the best that the Galapagos has to offer.

Voting Information Project
Partnering With Election Officials to Inform American Voters
The Voting Information Project (VIP) is an innovative and proven service that provides voters with the information they need to cast a ballot—when they need it and where they are most likely to look for it.
Developed by state and local election offices, leading technology companies such as Google and Microsoft, and The Pew Charitable Trusts, VIP is the 21st century transmission line between election administrators and today's voters.
Through VIP:
- Voters can use search engines, social media, mobile applications, and online news sites to get answers to questions about the voting process.
- Election administrators in more than two-thirds of the states can distribute accurate information through the channels voters depend on in our increasingly mobile society.
- Media, civic organizations, and candidates can place VIP gadgets on their websites to inform the public and encourage participation. In 2010, more than 300 Web sites used VIP, drawing 15 to 20 million views and six to seven million lookups.
- Technology innovators can develop new applications to increase voter engagement through embeddable gadgets, mobile device applications, and tools for military and overseas voting.

When Do You Toss Food?
Milk? Hmm. Smells funny. TOSS. Chicken? Ehh. No one will eat. TOSS. Broccoli? Are those bugs? TOSS.
If you TOSS more than you KEEP, you're not alone!
momlogic's Jenny: Every week, without fail, it seems like my husband and I argue about the state of food in our fridge. After two days, I'm pretty convinced that everything has gone bad, while he'll eat pizza from 1982. I like to play it conservatively when it comes to food possibly being past its prime, but with the state of the economy and a little one in the house, I can't constantly be tossing perfectly good food if it really IS okay to eat.
According to WebMD, before I get entirely crazy, there are some basic food guidelines to live by:
- Milk. Usually fine until a week after the "Sell By" date.
- Eggs. OK for three - five weeks after you bring them home (assuming you bought them before the "sell by" date). VanLandingham says double-grade As will go down a grade in a week but still be perfectly edible.
- Poultry and seafood. Cook or freeze this within a day or two.
- Beef and pork. Cook or freeze within three to five days.
- Canned goods. Highly acidic foods like tomato sauce can keep 18 months or more. Low-acid foods like canned green beans are probably risk-free for up to five years. Do not put cans in a hot place like a crawl space or garage, and keep canned and dry food at 50 to 70 degrees Fahrenheit in a dry, dark place. Humidity can be a factor in speeded-up deterioration. The FDA notes that taste, aroma, and appearance of food can change rapidly if the air conditioning fails in a home or warehouse. Obviously, cans bulging with bacteria growth should be discarded, no matter what the expiration date!
Well, I decided to ask some of our momlogic community to tell me, in their opinion, what THEY felt the shelf life of the following food items were:
- Bread?
- Meatloaf (cooked)?
- Chicken (cooked)?
- Pasta (cooked)?
- Pizza?
- Vegetables (cooked & uncooked)?
Here's what my fellow "tossers" had to say:
RP Mom: Bread - once it has mold (even the tiniest bit) or is dried out it goes!
- Meatloaf (cooked) - and any other cooked meat about two days
- Chicken (cooked) - same as the meatloaf, after two days it is gone
- Pasta (cooked) - does not last very long in my house but by the next day. It gets soggy.
- Pizza - never lasts LOL but I would say day two!!
- Vegetables (cooked & uncooked) -- cooked I give one day. They really dont taste great reheated in my opinion. Uncook, as soon as they get wilty looking, have mold on them/just look-feel different
JGS: I toss the bread if it has any evidence of mold or is too crispy! The meatloaf and chicken go in the garbage the next day. Pizza, well that doesn't last long in my house--usually just a day and veggie's have to really look bad for me to throw them out!
Karissa: Bread - when it is stale or moldy (not often). Any cooked food - mostly I will toss it on the 5th day, but few things make it past the next day because we take leftovers to work for lunch...
Julie: I toss the bread if it's moldy. Yuck. If it smells strange or is expired, it's out.
Meatloaf - don't eat red meat but I'd say after one day
Chicken/pasta - if I don't eat the next day, it's out
Pizza - two days
Vegetables - Cooked, two days - uncooked - if it starts looking wrinkly or weird, it's out!
Rayna: I have a two day rule. Anything that is a leftover better be used up or it is gone in two days. Pizza is only one day. After that it is nasty! Veggies uncooked I'll keep them until they are soggy or fuzzy. If they are cooked then the two day rule applies. Again with the pasta I think that a two day rule is in order. Meats like chicken or others are in the two day category. I am careful when it comes to leftovers. My husband would eat anything old or otherwise.
Spirit: Two days is my max. My hubby is the same as yours, he will scrape of the mildew and say it's fresh!!!! This use to cause weekly arguments. But what I do now, because he is the cook, and he will combine two-week-old stuff and say "Dinners Ready!!!!" I will clean out the fridge every time I see something in there over two days. This now drives him crazy because when he goes to try and re-cook old food, he will say "honey, didn't we still have some meat loaf???" And if I am in the mood to argue, I will say I threw it out. If I don't want to argue, I just say "I don't know honey!!!"
Hungry for more? Connect with Jenny in the momlogic community and tell her when do YOU toss food?
|Jenny, author of Perfectly Disheveled, is a writer/producer, and first time mom to a 1-year-old boy.
I recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I don't know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting this blog very often.

The Ricketts Family
You too can own the Chicago Cubs!
The Sporting News is reporting that, in a compelling sign of confidence, our favorite team's next owner is having trouble ponying up the necessary cash to finalize his purchase of the Cubs. Tom Ricketts has chosen to compensate for this fact by wisely offering a portion of the team to rich, celebrity Cub fans.
For only a cool $25 million you can buy your own slice of the Chicago pie! I can only imagine a Cubs organization in which this is the necessary result of an owner with too little money to actually buy the team. Forget about the possibility that the Cubs will have to cut salary to a more affordable level. I'm worried more about an organization crafted by the feedback of such wealthy co-owners as Bill Murray, Jim Belushi, Billy Corgan, and John Cuzack.
Imagine a Cubs team in which the organist plays melancholy tunes between innings, in which the scoreboard is painted a Burtonesque black, and where one of the crazy owners dangles from the foul pole in order to relive the greatest moment of his movie-making career hoping to catch the homerun ball that wins the Cubs the World Series.
Actually scratch all of that. None of that is actually scary. What's scary is the team being purchased by a poor owner. What's scary is the sudden realization that "Ricketts" is in no way, shape, or form an anagram for "Steinbrenner." What's scary is that the best possible owner remains caught up in his own world in which he dodges allegations of insider trading while exchanging wordy insults with the player of his basketball team's playoff rival. That's the scary thing and that is exactly where we are headed.
Ricketts and Cub's sale
There has not been anything of late about the sale of the Cub's being completed. Here is what I know. About 3 weeks ago there was a story in Chicago Crains Business that Ricketts looking for 10 investors to put in another 25 million each. Today the reports are that Ricketts has had meetings with "hollywood" types that have Chicago roots looking for money. I don't take any of this as good news that the sale will being going thru any time soon. My take on the situation is that this may hold back the Cub's as much as the bullpen. With the ownership in such a state of flux, Hendry's hands may-be tied as the deals he can make. Does anyone have any more information?
Phoenix Coyote's Bankruptcy has baseball implications
This article was originally posted on The Cubdom, but was traded to GROTA for a PTBNL and Chad Fox "fireman" insurance.
Last week, Jerry Moyes, the owner of the Phoenix Coyotes, placed his team into bankruptcy, touching off a showdown between the NHL and the U.S. Bankruptcy Court.
As explained well in this WSJ Article by Matthew Futterman, the Bankruptcy Court is obligated to accept the highest bid for the team, regardless of the NHL's wishes. Unfortunately for NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman, the highest bidder is a Canadian gentleman named James Balsillie. Balsillie is the founder of Research in Motion, the company that makes Blackberrys.
Balsillie's plan for the Coyote's, like his plan for the Pittsburgh Penguins that he tried to buy several years back (which the NHL blocked), is to move the club to the Copps Coliseum in Hamilton, Ontario. In the past, Balsillie has gone so far as to sell 12,000 season tickets to prove that the team has a market and could compete with the Maple Leafs.
For various reasons, including the fact that the Coyotes currently play in a new taxpayer funded arena in Glendale, AZ, Bettman does not want the Coyotes leaving Phoenix. So, in an effort to stem the inevitable, Bettman is recruiting other potential owners to bid on the club, but none seem likely to top Balsillie's $212.5 million offer. (Jerry Reinsdorf included.)
Now, what does this have to do with Baseball? Can you think of any teams that might be subject to a bankruptcy judge's whims? Can you think of any other teams that are being sold? Can you think of any other teams where the seller, before going into bankruptcy, told the bidders that the best bid would be the one that maximized post-tax profit (rather than the largest bid wins)... but now that the parent company is in bankruptcy those considerations could be for naught? I'm really scraping my brain here... oh wait, there is that one ball club. What was it's name again? Oh, right! The Chicago National League Ball Club (dba Chicago Cubs).
No, I don't expect the Phoenix proceedings to have much of an impact on the sale of the Cubs. It would be quite late in the game to derail the Ricketts' purchase of our team (although if this had happened a year earlier, my guess is Mark Cuban would be the new owner), but the world should be watching with bated breath because the legal precedent that allows Leagues to determine who can be an owner and where those teams can play is shaky at best. If the Bankruptcy judge sides with Balsillie, that's just one more stone thrown at the window of League self-determination.
Where do I come down on this? Well, the WSJ gives us a nice peak into the debt structure of the Coyotes. The NHL is in the pole position and should receive the full $37 million it is owed, no matter who buys the club. Next is Michael Dell's private equity firm which would receive it's $80 million in most circumstances. And finally, the creditor who would be most sensitive to any price fluctuations is Jerry Moyes. He has $104 million of unsecured debt, so the club would need to sell for $221 million (plus legal fees) for him to receive payment on all of his personal loan to the club.
Normally, I would side with Moyes. It's his money that would be lost if the club sold for less, so he ought to be able to choose whom to sell it to, and he already has - in lining up a deal with Balsillie... but this isn't a normal situation.
Remember that part about the Coyotes playing in a taxpayer funded arena? The original lease, which Moyes allegedly filed bankruptcy specifically so he could void it, calls for a $700 million fee if the Coyotes leave the arena, and so I am arguing that the party most harmed here is not Jerry Moyes, Jim Balsillie, or the NHL, but the taxpayers of Phoenix and Arizona. If I were Bankruptcy King, I'd call all of those gentlemen into my thrown-room and tell them that the highest bidder who intends to honor the original lease gets the club, otherwise I'll be cutting Jeremy Roenick in half.

Arianna and Arlonda were participating in a cupcake and bakery mini course, one of 45 classes offered Nov. 19-20 ahead of the district's Thanksgiving break. The school's educators paused their regular curriculum to help sixth, seventh and eighth graders discover new interest areas and career possibilities. During registration Nov. 6, the students selected from a comprehensive list of one-day and two-day courses, such as indoor skydiving, rock climbing, chess competitions and fossil studies. Many students chose to leave school grounds and visit local landmarks and organizations, including Garden of the Gods and Care and Share Food Bank in Colorado Springs, or the Downtown Aquarium in Denver.

Paterno widow defends JoePaTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS | February 09,2013STATE COLLEGE, Pa. Breaking more than a year of silence, Sue Paterno is defending her late husband as a moral, disciplined man who never twisted the truth to avoid bad publicity.
The wife of the former Penn State coach is fighting back against the accusations against Joe Paterno that followed the Jerry Sandusky scandal. Her campaign started with a letter sent Friday to former Penn State players.
She wrote that the familys exhaustive response to former FBI director Louis Freehs report for the university on the Sandusky child sex abuse case will officially be released to the public at 9 a.m. Sunday on paterno.com.
Freeh in July accused Joe Paterno and three university officials of covering up allegations against Sandusky, a retired defensive coordinator. Less than two weeks later, the NCAA levied unprecedented sanctions on the program that Joe Paterno built into one of the most well-known in college football.
When the Freeh report was released last July, I was as shocked as anyone by the findings and by Mr. Freehs extraordinary attack on Joes character and integrity. I did not recognize the man Mr. Freeh described, Sue Paterno wrote. I am here to tell you as definitively and forcefully as I know how that Mr. Freeh could not have been more wrong in his assessment of Joe.
The family directed its attorney, Washington lawyer Wick Sollers, to assemble experts to review Freehs findings and Joe Paternos actions, Sue Paterno wrote.
She did not offer details on findings in the letter, except to say that they unreservedly and forcefully confirm my beliefs about Joes conduct.
In addition, they present a passionate and persuasive critique of the Freeh report as a total disservice to the victims of Sandusky and the cause of preventing child sex offenses, Sue Paterno wrote.
Sue Paterno said neither Freehs report, nor the NCAAs actions, should close the book on the scandal.
This cannot happen, she wrote. The Freeh report failed and if it is not challenged and corrected, nothing worthwhile will have come from these tragic events.
In a statement released through a spokesman, Penn State called Sue Paterno an important and valued member of the Penn State community.
We have and continue to appreciate all of her work on behalf of the university, the school said. She has touched many lives and continues to be an inspiration to many Penn Staters.
The Associated Press left messages Friday for representatives for Freeh.
Sanduskys arrest in November 2011, triggered the sweeping scandal, including the firing of Paterno and the departure under pressure of Graham Spanier as president days later. Prosecutors filed perjury and failure to report charges against former athletic director Tim Curley and retired vice president Gary Schultz.
Sandusky, 69, was sentenced last fall to at least 30 years in prison in after being convicted in June on 45 criminal counts. Prosecutors said allegations occurred on and off campus.
The crimes committed by Jerry Sandusky are heartbreaking, Sue Paterno, who has five children and 17 grandchildren, wrote. It is incomprehensible to me that anyone could intentionally harm a child. I think of the victims daily and I pray that God will heal their wounds and comfort their souls.
Freeh released his findings the following month. His team conducted 430 interviews and analyzed over 3.5 million emails and documents, his report said.
Taking into account the available witness statements and evidence, it is more reasonable to conclude that, in order to avoid the consequences of bad publicity, the most powerful leaders at Penn State University Messrs. Spanier, Schultz, Paterno and Curley repeatedly concealed critical facts relating to Sanduskys child abuse from authorities, trustees and the university community, Freeh wrote in releasing the report.
Less than two weeks later, Penn State hastily took down the bronze statue of Paterno outside Beaver Stadium. The next day, the NCAA said Freehs report presented an unprecedented failure of institutional integrity leading to a culture in which a football program was held in higher esteem.
Penn State was given a four-year bowl ban, strict scholarship cuts and a $60 million fine. The NCAA also vacated 111 victories under Paterno, meaning he no longer held the record of most wins by a major college coach.
Since then Spanier, Curley and Schultz have also been charged with obstruction and conspiracy, among other charges. They have vehemently denied the allegations. So has the Paterno family, though they have promised a more detailed response when its own investigation was complete.
Paternos legacy wasnt his statue or his 409 wins, but family and players, his widow said. Less than an hour after the letter was released, a copy was circulating on social media and websites, including one belonging to Seattle Seahawks fullback and former Nittany Lion Michael Robinson.
The great fathers, husbands and citizens you have become fulfill the dreams Joe had, she wrote to the former players. All that we want and what I believe we owe the victims, Joe Paterno and everyone who cares about Penn State is the full record of what happened.
Paterno died in January 2012 at age 85, about two months after being diagnosed with lung cancer. The way university leadership handled his ouster over a late-night telephone call and its handling of the Freeh report and NCAA sanctions remains a sensitive topic for factions of dissatisfied alumni, former players, staff and community members.
I think Sue hit it directly on the head with everything, Robinson said in a phone interview. Personally, Ive been feeling this way for the past year. The Joe the media was portraying was so different from the Joe I know.
Trustee Anthony Lubrano, who joined the board last year after drawing support from disgruntled alumni, has been among more vocal critics who say that school leaders rushed to judgment on Paterno. Critics have also said Freehs report downplayed failures of Pennsylvanias child-protective services.
I knew Joe Paterno as well as one human being can know another. Joe was exactly the moral, disciplined and demanding man you knew him to be, Sue Paterno wrote. Never not once did I see him compromise his principles or twist the truth to avoid bad publicity or protect his reputation.
The Paterno family has remained supportive of the football program and Paternos successor, Bill OBrien. Sue Paterno has been active in organizing Special Olympics, which was again held on campus last summer; and son and former assistant coach Jay Paterno has done speaking engagements with students and attends sporting events.
On Monday, a recorded interview Sue Paterno did with Katie Couric for her Katie show will air nationwide. A preview was posted on the shows website this week.
It is still hard to accept, Sue Paterno told Couric when asked about hearing the Sandusky news. But when I read the first charge, I actually got physically ill.
Ive had so many sleepless nights.
In the preview, Sue Paterno elaborated.
These are children, she said. Our lives have been about children. We have five children. We have 17 grandchildren. Our lives are about children, making them better, not hurting them.
The familys response comes a month after Gov. Tom Corbett filed a federal antitrust lawsuit against the NCAA to overturn the sanctions. The NCAA this week asked a judge to throw out the suit.

A new survey shows most California voters don't like government's response to global warming and still support the state's greenhouse gas emissions law.
The Field Poll results released today show that 62 percent of voters are unhappy with the federal government's actions and nearly half, 49 percent, give low marks to what the state is doing.
Overall, about two-thirds of California voters think global warming is so serious that government needs to combat it and 70 percent support Assembly Bill 32, which aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by regulating industrial polluters.
Both support levels are down somewhat from 2007, one year after AB 32's passage, when 79 percent of voters supported the law and 76 percent wanted something done about climate change.
Republicans, voters 65 and older, Central Valley residents and voters with no more than a high school education tend to believe that more research is needed or that concerns are unwarranted, the poll found.
They also tended to be "by far the people most opposed to AB 32," said Field Poll Director Mark DiCamillo. "Any government action is misguided, from their standpoint."
Luis Hernandez, a 26-year-old registered Democrat, said he's a global-warming skeptic. He thinks government is overreacting.
"It's what I hear on the news," said the Merced resident, "but I'm not a scientist."
On the other side, Democrats, independents, voters up to age 40, San Francisco Bay Area residents, Asian Americans and college graduates tended to think global warming is serious and merits more government action.
"The skeptics don't think government has a role," DiCamillo said. "People who do, view the federal government as dragging its feet."
Sacramento catering business owner Rose Wallace, 63, said the weather has become "topsy-turvy" in her lifetime, and that government work to counter it.
"I think we're going to wait on doing something until it's too late," Wallace said. "This is serious."

The speculation is over on Sigma's countdown and it doesn't look like anyone quite got it right. Sigma Poland has unveiled its new lens mount conversion service.
'Change your mind. Change you mount,' the site announces. Slight translation issues notwithstanding, this is exciting news: the firm is offering users the chance to change the mount of their current Sigma lenses to another mount of their choice
The decision to change your brand of camera can be a tricky one, and it's further complicated by the fact that doing so will immediately make all of your lenses unuseable. Sigma's new service could render such painful decisions a thing of the past.
The mount conversions on offer at the moment are Sigma, Nikon, Canon, Pentax and Sony, as well as Sony E-mount and Micro Four Thirds. Be aware that only newer lenses from Sigma's Art, Contemporary and Sports ranges are currently the ones available for conversion – the FAQ explains that they've been specifically engineered to be compatible with MCS. There's a complete list of eligible models on the website.
This service could open up a lot of new creative possibilities and we're excited to see how it takes off. It's due to begin in Japan on September 2nd, and you can find out more at the newly launched website.
Our curiosity has been piqued by this new campaign from Sigma Poland. The firm has opened up a website named 'sigma-foto', which so far features just a single static page with a running countdown and a short message in Polish.
Throwing the text into Google Translate gives a rough translation of 'Overthrow the system together with SIGMA. There is liberation.' Fair enough.
Photography blogs have been working in overdrive to decipher what this means - we think 43Rumors might be on the right track with one of their predictions, pointing towards either a new system camera or a universal adapter allowing Sigma products to be used on all mirrorless cameras. In any case, we'll find out in a day and twenty hours.
Sigma has come out with some fantastic products this year. You might recall from back in April that Jon Tarrant reviewed the Sigma Apo Macro 180mm f/2.8 EX DG OS HSM and awarded it a whopping 97%.
Image: The 180mm f/2.8 macro from Sigma, upon which we lavished praise earlier this year
'This is not merely one of the best lenses to have been tested in WDC's reviews, it could even be THE best lens tested so far,' Jon said.
If the latest news means more products of this quality from Sigma, we're on board. We'll have to wait and see.Via Photography Blog

I have a silent violin like this for a while now and there's so many words to describe it. I can play this violin as loud as I want to without anyone complaining or hearing my mistakes. I have the one in blue and I take it everywhere I go. It's cheaper than the other silent Violin and that's a plus. I LOVE IT SO MUCH!!!!

CONWAY, SC (WMBF) - The new Conway Public Safety Building isn't the only site under construction right now. Several businesses have their own construction zones set up within Conway city limits.
Kelli James with the Conway Chamber of Commerce says it's all part of the vision for the future of Conway. "We're so proud to see that," said James, the Executive Vice President of the Chamber. "It is the result of all the plans that have happened of all the community efforts over the years."
Conway is seeing big results according to the chamber. Just down the street from the new public safety building site on Ninth Avenue, the Wendy's has been torn down and is being built from the ground up, in a new design. On Highway 501, a new Dunkin Donuts looks to be almost done with construction.
But the biggest change seems to be happening at the Bay Village shopping center across from Conway High School. Bay Village has had vacant storefronts for years, but now Planet Fitness is doing the work to open a new location there to anchor the shopping center.
The building boom is not limited only to known chains, but small local businesses are opening up too. Local business owner Sandi Shackelford, who owns Mad Hatter and Company, and her business partner opened up their business six months ago. She says all the activity shows the focus isn't just on downtown anymore.
"We're, you know, spreading out," said Shackelford. "We're a few blocks away from that. So out of the mainstream, but you can't all be blocks off Main Street downtown."
Since there's plenty of construction underway, this means there will be a number of openings next year. Planet fitness could be the first, since owners say they want to get it up and running as soon as possible, at the beginning of 2014. The Conway Public Safety Building is expected to be finished by mid-summer 2014.

Landscape Roses
These are a modern category of rose developed mainly for mass planting. They are collectively known as shrub roses. In the late 20th century, traditional hybrid tea and floribunda rose varieties fell out of favor amid gardeners and landscapers, as they are often labor and chemical intensive plants susceptible to a myriad of pest and disease problems. So-called "landscape" roses have thus been developed to fill the consumers desire for a garden rose that offers color, form and fragrance, but is also low maintenance and easy to care for. Most landscape roses have the following characteristics:
- Lower growing habit
- Repeat flowering
- Disease and pest resistance
- Non suckering, growing on their own roots.

Love it. I've been waiting for this kind of tweak.
Saurik releasing a paid app? Even with 14 million jailbroken devices I guess cydia ad revenues just dont cut it any more with server costs and all that. Well good for him. Glad to see him making something new and awesome again. I'm buying not just because its awesome but also because its a rare opportunity to help out the greatest dev to ever live!
Ahh so this is what he has been working on! Hopefully now he can update WB. While I love what WB offers it needs some much needed updates. Please Saurik update when you can and good luck with this Tweak!
$2.49? Jeez. I'd give him $20 if he'd cut that ratty beard off! JK JK. Love Saurik! Buy the tweak and support the man people!
This tweak is like 'Programming' on an old CD Player! Does anybody here even know what I'm talking about?!?!
Fantastic tweak. I had a bug with the two first songs, but since then ... perfect. Love it. Works also with iTunes Match. What are you waiting for ?
Bought this tweak and it's awesome. I have a feeling Apple will add this to iOS soon to go along with the new "Play Next" feature that they introduced with the iTunes 11. Or atleast they need too.
Can anyone tell me if this tweak adds significant lag? I will jailbreak just to use this
no lag here.
awesome tweak. only thing that could make it better would be some subtle animation bringing up and dismissing the buttons.
Reminds me of the same feature found in grooveshark, great tweak though. I think ill give this a try
Awesome! This is one (of so much) feature that Zune is better than iPod
It's like I died and went to heaven... I've wanted this feature since my first iPod almost 10 years ago... Finally! My life just got better than it already was! This mod is well worth $2.50... No flaws or lag have I noticed... Thank you Mr. Freeman... You rock...
God I miss that feeling we take technology for granted now.
Skip protection upgrades ever year... Had to keep gettin better CD players every year to have more skip protection... Technology has changed but the production and upgrades seems to have had some patterns some patterns... Auto reverse Walkmen were the dopest when they dropped

What was formerly known as AutoText has been reborn in Office Word 2007 as Building Blocks and is the primary focus of this article.
After spending a short amount of time using Word 2007, you'll quickly spot the many Building Block galleries available to you while you work. Headers, Footers, Page Numbers, Text Boxes, Cover Pages, Watermarks, Quick Tables, Tables of Contents, Bibliographies, and Equations were created to help you build professional-looking documents quickly and efficiently. The built-in Building Blocks are Theme enabled, which means that if you modify the document Theme, the formats automatically update—even in the Building Block galleries.
You can customize Building Block entries to fit your needs, import new Building Blocks from Microsoft Office Online (www.office.microsoft.com), create custom Building Blocks and add them to their relevant galleries, or use custom galleries that can be added easily to your Quick Access Toolbar. You can view the many Building Blocks by browsing the various galleries, or you can check out the entire collection at once by opening the Building Blocks Organizer, found on the Insert tab under the Quick Parts options, as shown in Figure 1.
Unlike its predecessor, built-in Building Blocks are not stored in the Normal template, but rather in a specific template named Building Blocks.dotx. This template is loaded as a global template the first time you access a Building Block gallery or the Building Blocks Organizer in your current Word session, so it's not uncommon to initially experience a slight delay while the Building Blocks load.
Tip While viewing a Building Block gallery, you can quickly locate a Building Blocks entry in the Building Blocks Organizer by right-clicking a Building Block, such as a Cover Page or a Header, and then clicking Organize And Delete. The Building Blocks Organizer opens with the entry selected automatically.
Top of Page
You can insert a Building Block in a document simply by clicking the Building Block on its corresponding gallery (such as the Text Box gallery available on the Insert tab). A few of the various Building Block galleries that you'll find in Word 2007 are shown in Figure 2. Alternatively, use the Building Blocks Organizer to preview and insert a Building Block in your document. Note that you cannot double-click a Building Block name to insert it from the organizer—you must click the Insert button.
Tip Former Word users may be familiar with an AutoComplete tip that displays after typing the first few characters of the AutoText entry. The increased number of built-in Building Blocks also increased the likelihood of inadvertently inserting them into your document, and this capability is now removed. However, AutoComplete is still available for the current system date, months, and days of the week.
If you want to insert Building Blocks by using the keyboard, type the Building Block name and then press F3.
A Building Block gallery can be added to your Quick Access Toolbar by right-clicking the gallery button on the Ribbon and then clicking Add To Quick Access Toolbar. Some Building Block galleries, such as the Cover Page, Table of Contents, and Quick Table galleries, contain additional commands on the shortcut menu. For example, if you right-click a Building Block in the Cover Pages gallery (a Building Block entry rather than the button on the Ribbon), you'll find Insert At Beginning Of Document, Insert At Current Document Position, Insert At Beginning Of Section, Insert At End Of Section, or Insert At End Of Document. If you right-click a Building Block in the Quick Tables gallery that is found on the Insert tab under Table options, you'll also find Insert At Page Header (beginning of the current page) and Insert At Page Footer (end of the current page), as shown in Figure 3.
After you insert a Building Block, you can freely customize the Building Block's formatting and properties without affecting the Building Block stored in the template.
If you prefer to keep your Building Blocks in one location, such as Building Blocks.dotx, you can move your old AutoText entries to Building Blocks.dotx by using the Edit Properties button at the bottom of the organizer and changing the Save In template to Building Blocks.dotx.
Frequently used document content, such as a paragraph or several paragraphs of data, logos, graphics, specifically formatted headers or footers, standard tables, or equations—any type of content—can be easily turned into a Building Block. You can create Building Blocks from newly created content or even data from documents that were created in previous versions of Word. Simply select the data that you want to turn into a reusable Building Block. On the Insert tab, click Quick Parts, and then click Save Selection To Quick Part Gallery, or press Alt+F3. The Create New Building Block dialog box displays as shown in Figure 4.
Tip If you want to include all paragraph formatting, such as style, line spacing, indentation, alignment, and so forth, select the paragraph mark (¶) along with your content. If you aren't already viewing formatting marks, navigate to the Home tab and, in the Paragraph group, click the Show/Hide ¶ button to toggle the formatting marks so you can verify that you included the paragraph mark in your selection. If you do not include the paragraph mark, the inserted Building Block will match the formatting of the current paragraph.
If you want your Building Blocks to be Theme enabled so that the formats update automatically, then use Theme fonts and colors from the Theme Color section of the color palettes.
The Create New Building Block dialog box contains the following options:
Tip Some Building Block galleries perform additional actions when you insert a Building Block from the gallery. For example, a Cover Page is added as the first page or is swapped with another previously inserted Cover Page. Headers, Footers, and Page Numbers are inserted in the Header and Footer layer in the document. To view other actions, right-click the Building Block entry and use an alternate command, shown previously in Figure 3.
Tip To display your Building Blocks at the top of the Building Block galleries, create a Category name that starts with a symbol, such as an asterisk, or place the name in parentheses.
Note If you save or modify a Building Block in Building Blocks.dotx, Normal.dotx (provided that the Prompt Before Saving Normal Template option is turned on in the Advanced area of Word Options), or a global template, you are prompted to save changes to the template when you exit Word. For attached document templates, you are prompted to save changes to the template on closing the document.
Tip Use the Save Selection To Gallery Name gallery found at the bottom of the Building Block galleries to quickly access the Create New Building Block dialog box and automatically select the corresponding gallery in the dialog box.
The following image displays a few custom Building Blocks assigned to different Building Block galleries by using a custom Category name (Coral Reef Divers) to place them at the tops of the galleries so that they can be easily found for quick insertion.
Note If you add a number of custom Building Blocks to the Building Blocks template, remember to back up the template and store your backup copy in a separate location. Like the Normal.dotm template, the Building Blocks.dotx template could potentially become corrupt and you could lose your custom Building Blocks.
You can modify the properties of a Building Block—including changing the Save In template—by changing the information in the Modify Building Block dialog box, which looks very similar to the Create New Building Block dialog box (shown earlier in Figure 4). To modify Building Block properties, access the Modify Building Block dialog box by taking either of the following actions:
After you open the Modify Building Block dialog box, make any desired changes and click OK to close the dialog box. A message box displays asking whether you want to redefine the Building Block entry as shown in Figure 5. If you click Yes, the changes are effective immediately.
You can also redefine a Building Block, such as changing the content or formatting. Simply make your modifications and select the content. On the Insert tab, click Quick Parts, and then click Save Selection To Quick Parts Gallery, or press Alt+F3. In the Create New Building Block dialog box, type the same name as the Building Block that you want to redefine and make any other necessary changes, such as changing the gallery or category. When you click OK, you are prompted with a message asking whether you want to redefine your entry shown previously in Figure 5.
Tip If you download Building Blocks from Microsoft Office Online, a template containing the Building Blocks is placed in your Document Building Blocks folder. It's recommended that you move the downloaded Building Blocks to Building Blocks.dotx by editing the properties and changing the Save In location. Otherwise, several templates will load the first time you access a Building Block gallery or the Building Blocks Organizer, and you might see an increase in the initial delay. After the Building Blocks are moved, you might want to periodically delete the downloaded templates from the Document Building Blocks folder because they no longer serve a useful purpose.
To delete content created by inserting a Building Block, simply delete the content as you would any other content. To delete a Building Block entry, select the Building Block in the Building Blocks Organizer and then click Delete. A message box displays that asks you to confirm the deletion. If you are sure, click Yes. As with new Building Blocks and modifications, you are prompted to save changes to the template accordingly, so you have one last chance to change your mind before permanently deleting a Building Block from a template.

Cabrera blasts career hit 2K
History took place at Comerica Park on Friday afternoon during the Tigers 10-4 victory over the Baltimore Orioles. In the 8 th inning with the Tigers up 8-2, Miguel Cabrera stepped to the plate with a runner on and blasted a pitch into the left field seats for his 2000 th career hit. With reaching the milestone, Cabrera become the 277 th player in Major League Baseball history to get 2000 hits and the 9 th fastest to do it. The home run capped off a four hit day for Cabrera. He also drove in three runs.
Smyly gets first win of the season in familiar fashion
With Thursdays game against the Royals being rained out, Tigers manager Brad Ausmus decided to skip Drew Smylys turn in the rotation. Fortunately for Ausmus, the Tigers need a man in long relieve after a 34 minute rain delay during the 4 th inning forced Ausmus to replace starter Anibal Sanchez. And just like he did numerous times last season, Smyly took the mound early in the game and provided three innings of solid pitching to earn his first win of the season. With two off days next week, Smyly will continue to pitch out of the bullpen. The question is for how long will he remain there. The Tigers wont need a 5 th starter until Monday, April 21 st and Smyly will probably remain pitching out of the pen until then.
Sanchez rebounds after slow start
Speaking of Anibal Sanchez, he probably wishes he could have a mulligan on the first inning against the Orioles. The American League leader in ERA last season, allowed a walk and two hits, including a two-run double to Chris Davis, to the first four batters he faced, but only surrendered a pair of walks from that point on before being pulled after the rain delay. Sanchez tossed only 69 pitches in four innings and struck out three.
Game Notes
Raja Davis hit his first home run as a Tiger in the fourth inning with two runners on, extending the Tigers lead to 6-2Austin Jackson and Torii Hunter each had three hits. Hunter also went yard in the fourth inning, a solo shot, and Jackson hit a leadoff double in the 2 nd inning.Joba Chamberlin made his Tigers debut allowing four hits and two runs in the 9 th inning. The Orioles started the 9 th with three straight hits, the same number of hits they had in the first eight innings....The Tigers are 3-0 to start a season for just the 5th time in the last 30 years. The Tigers also started 3-0 in 2012, 2006, 2004 and 1985Rick Porcello will take the mound in the middle game of the three game series with Baltimore on Saturday afternoon. He will be opposed by righty Bud Norris. Porcello was 13-8 with a 4.32 last season, while Norris was 10-12 with a 4.18 ERA last year with Baltimore and Houston. First pitch is set for 1:08pm.

Irle Goldman presents a Professor's Prologue to a Conversation with author Andrew Solomon, who will speak at Lesley on February 25
Friday, February 22, 2013
It is a beautifully written, poetic book. There are many times when I read a sentence of his and thought, "Wow, that's gorgeous writing," and then I re-read it to whoever was near me.
He combines art with science. You've got the first person descriptions of parents living with kids with various challenges, illnesses and lifestyles interspersed with descriptions of the research and issues in each of these areas. To me, this gets to the very essence of what is suffering and what is healing.
He analyzes vertical identity and horizontal identity – how we are similar to those who raised us and how we are different, and how we then get our identities, support and connection from those who are like us.
It is amazing to me how the over 300 families he has interviewed and connected with have let him into their lives and hearts. This says something profound about his compassion, who he is, and how he relates.
He has an overarching vision that brings coherence to the nature of differences and their inherent similarities. His vision connects these various kinds of challenges: prodigies, the deaf, autism, schizophrenia, crime, dwarfs, and others. This too is profound.
He is provocative. So many times I found myself challenging my own assumptions about so many things. By telling the stories of these many people and families, you get to reflect deeply on the question, "What's it all about Alfie?" You get to see the complexity of various answers that different families give to the same situation. This makes me humble.
He is transparent about his own role in this. Start by reading the first chapter, entitled "Son." It's a beautiful exposition about his own gayness and dyslexia and how it relates to his own connection to his family, to himself and to others. It gives you the context and beautifully describes the eyes he looks through in writing the rest of the book. He ends with how his journey has enriched and influenced his own life and choices in the final chapter called "Father."
"Difference unites us….The exceptional is ubiquitous; to be entirely typical is the rare and lonely state." (p.4)"…I knew that my own parents would have consented to a parallel early procedure (like cochlear implants for the deaf) to ensure that I would be straight, had one existed. I do not doubt that the advent of such a thing even now could wipe out most of gay culture." (p.3)
"Though many of us take pride in how different we are from our parents, we are endlessly sad at how different our children are from us" (p.2)
"Loving our children is an exercise for the imagination." (p.1)
"To look deep into your child's eyes and to see in him both yourself and something utterly strange, and then to develop a zealous attachment to him, is to achieve parenthood's…unselfish abandon." (p.6)
"Some kinds of grace would not have entered the world if everyone's hips and legs worked the same way." (p.38)
"It is always both essential and impossible to tease apart the parents' wanting to spare the child's suffering and the parents' wanting to spare themselves suffering. It is not pleasant to be suspended between two ways of being… (p. 36)
"…everyone has a defect, everyone has an identity, and they are often one and the same." (p.18)"I hate the loss of diversity in the world, even though I sometimes get a little worn out by being that diversity. I don't wish for anyone in particular to be gay, but the idea of no one's being gay makes me miss myself already." (p. 18)
Irle Goldman, Ph.D., teaches in the Counseling and Psychology and Expressive Therapies divisions at Lesley University.

Aaron Hernandez, the former NFL tight end already charged with killing an associate, murdered two relative strangers in the streets of Boston two summers ago, prosecutors charged Thursday.
Hernandez was indicted in the shooting deaths of Daniel de Abreu and Safiro Furtado, who were killed in their car after a chance encounter with Hernandez in a Boston nightclub on July 16, 2012.
Hernandez was already in jail at the time of Thursday's indictment, held without bond as he awaits trial for the shooting death of friend Odin Lloyd, whose bullet-ridden body was discovered last year.
Given the timeline that prosecutors allege, Hernandez, charged with two counts of first-degree murder, played an entire season for the New England Patriots after gunning down de Abreu and Furtado.
Suffolk County District Attorney Daniel Conley told reporters Thursday that the two men were "ambushed and executed" on their way home from Cure Lounge in Boston's South End that night.
And he said Hernandez was the one who pulled the trigger, unloading a .38 revolver multiple times and fatally striking the victims. Hernandez apparently did not know the men before meeting them at the nightclub that night.
Conley said police have since recovered the murder weapon and the SUV they say Hernandez was driving that night. Authorities believe he pulled up alongside their car on the right and unloaded.
From a football perspective, the timing is haunting. A month after the 2012 shooting, the New England Patriots awarded Hernandez a new contract worth up to $40 million, with $16 million guaranteed. He went on to catch 51 passes for 483 yards and five touchdowns that fall.
The Patriots organization embraced Hernandez at the time, and his narrative was one of redemption from a rough past. But ever since the slaying of Lloyd last spring, a string of shocking details about Hernandez's personal life have emerged.
They include:
• Hernandez's alleged shooting of Alexander Bradley, his employee, after a fight at Tootsie's Cabaret in Miami Gardens.
Bradley, who was shot in the eye, later sued Hernandez in U.S. District Court's Southern District of Florida. The lawsuit remains active, although his attorneys recently acknowledged in court that "there is no way of knowing when Hernandez's criminal action may he resolved." The latest charges will only add to the uncertainty.
Authorities believe Bradley was in a Toyota 4Runner with Hernandez the night de Abreu and Furtado were killed.
Bradley has since been arrested for his alleged role in a separate nightclub gunfight in Connecticut. Despite his incarceration, Bradley's representatives are still pushing for a June 2015 court date in Bradley's lawsuit against Hernandez.
• Investigators have also looked into potential gun-trafficking charges for Hernandez, an inquiry that has involved Dolphins center Mike Pouncey.
When the Dolphins traveled to New England last October, Massachusetts State Police served Pouncey with a subpoena to appear before a grand jury in the Hernandez investigation. Pouncey has never been named as a suspect, and briefly left the team in December to testify.
Efforts to reach Pouncey's representatives for reaction Thursday were unsuccessful, and the Dolphins had no comment.
Prosecutors on Thursday did not publicly link the most recent charges to the Lloyd slaying, but some have theorized that Lloyd may have known about the previous two murders.
Lloyd, a semi-pro football player who was part of Hernandez's circle, was shot and killed on June 17, 2013, in an industrial park a mile from Hernandez's opulent home.
After a brief investigation, authorities charged Hernandez with first-degree murder. Hernandez pleaded not guilty; he's since been held without bond. Shortly after his arrest, the Patriots terminated his contract.
Just this month, authorities charged Hernandez with assault and battery for his role in a jailhouse brawl.
Before his string of arrests, Hernandez — a native of Bristol, Conn. — was best known locally for his role in the University of Florida's 2008 national championship run. The university honored Hernandez with a brick outside of Ben Hill Griffin Stadium, but dug it out of the ground following his arrest last summer.
