To effectively reduce the incidence of antibiotic resistance, it is necessary to reduce the antibiotic pressure in the bacterial environment, such as the intestinal tract, water supply, and animal reservoirs. Reducing the inappropriate use of antibiotics will reduce antibiotic pressure in the intestinal tract. Improved sanitary treatment of a community's water supply will reduce the antibiotic pressure in this area. Reduction of antibiotic pressure in animal reservoirs is a complex topic and involves identifying and destroying infected animals as well as reducing human contact with animals that might be reservoirs.
In the hospital setting, basic infection control practices, such as hand washing and the use of gloves, are essential to the prevention and control of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and other drug-resistant organisms. Hospitalized patients diagnosed with MRSA are placed in isolation to minimize the spread of the organism.

ALBANY, GA (WALB) - After hundreds of concerned parents called the city, Albany is now encouraging people to trick-or-treat on Saturday October 30th instead of Sunday which is Halloween.
The city, police, and recreation department agreed public safety combined with school the next day are perfect reasons to have Halloween earlier.
The school board has also agreed to make the announcement at school to inform students of the change. The city will also see a larger police presence.
"Saturday is better than Sunday because Sunday will sort of block them from going to church and it would be hard to get up Monday morning for school," said guardian, Willie Bryant.
Neighbors in Albany can expect guests around dusk Saturday night October 30th. This is the first year the city can remember holding Halloween activities the day before the actual holiday.

Last month you got a taste of the power bodybuilding world with my chest workout. (If you missed it, head over to muscleandfitness.com to check it out.) Now, it's time to smash your back with the same kind of weight and volume. The basic principles of the two workouts are identical—start with a main lift where you go as heavy as possible for your working sets, taking as much time as you need between sets to fully recover.
The accessory moves that follow are also heavy, but never at the expense of good form. You don't have to time your rest periods during the accessory moves, either, but you should aim to pick up the pace somewhat; you won't need as much recovery time as you will during the deadlift. Over the years, I've learned to listen to my body and attack the sets as soon as I'm ready.
Keep Strength Levels High
Remember: Power bodybuilding is not just a system to build strength. It's also the best way I know to retain strength while dieting to get lean. Keeping strength levels high should be a priority for everyone, because when you lose strength, you lose size. And if you diet hard only to be left with a body without muscle, what was the point? If you can stay strong year-round, you can stay big year round, no matter how hard you diet when you're trying to get lean. Strength sustains you.

That part is not true, it has the same effect any supercharger instal has on the factory warranty. If the sc causes the issue, no factory warranty, if it doesn't than you are fine. Of course one can purchase the optional warranty coverage thought magnacharger that reimburses $$ in the event of a failure.
How about a beefier clutch? I wonder if that is almost necessary
I was told the same, that a clutch that could handle more power is not necessary, having said that, when I do have to end up replacing my clutch I'll likely upgrade it.....
RoomRaider you may want to ask Arrington for the updated tune and then head to the dyno again. Dave said he has added 30HP to that tune.
Yeah, heard a little about that, I'm sure there's a bunch of 392 owners that are happy campers with an unexpected 30 hp. thanks to Dave. My motor's comin out in a few weeks & I won't have it up & running before spring & I'll need an entirely different tune all together by then.

Could it be? Are cowboy hats going to be a big thing again this summer? Dang, I was hoping they would die out with cowboy boots, vests and chaps.
Seems as though the cowboy hat, particularly of the straw variety, is around to stay. Much like Ugg boots, they really took off for a while and just won't go away.
The truth is, they are kind of cute, but not just anyone can wear a cowboy hat. So if you are one of the daring few, rock that straw contraption for another season. Why not? They're more interesting than a regular sun hat and more refined than a trucker cap.
May we suggest…If you are going to try out the cowboy hat thing, play it safe and get a relatively cheap one, like this one from Target. Similar to one that Beyonce was seen wearing last summer, it's cute without being crazy.
Straw Hat from Target, about $12

4th Arrondissement Pompidou Le Marais Vacation Rentals with Online Payment(151)

Recent 4th Arrondissement Pompidou Le Marais Reviews
Bright and Spacious Paris Style
The apartment was a true gem. Hidden away on a quiet little side street that was right in the middle of the Marais. Very close to everything. So many restaurants and cute little shops just minutes away. From the grocery store to the bakery we had it all. After a long day of site seeing it was wonderful to sit on the balcony with a bottle of wine. Would love to stay there again.
Perfect Spot for a family!
Johan's apartment exceeded our expectations in terms of neighborhood, beauty and taste level. It was a perfect spot for a family of 3, the kitchen was fantastic, and the large widows allowed light, street views and the ability to be inside but not feel cut off from the outside, so food from nearby markets and wine was as nice as restaurants. Perfect location. All conveniences such as laundry and WIFI. Bath and shower are beautiful. We were met promptly to get the key and entrance. I highly recommend the rental and would rent again without hesitation.
A Paris Gem!
This is a Paris Gem located in the awesome Bastille district. My husband and I have rented 11 very nice apartments/homes in 3 European countries as well as within the United States and this is one of our favorites! This apartment is EXTREMELY CLEAN and in a GREAT LOCATION on a beautiful gated cobblestone street very close to many transportation options. Despite its measurements, this apartment is very spacious with a well thought out layout and design. I must also mention that the washing machine is the best we have ever had in Europe! If you are familiar with european washers they take hours to wash one load. This one has an Express Wash of 20+ minutes. Loved it! My husband and I arrived on July 28th with the lovely apartment manager, Janet, waiting for us at the apartment (expected yes, but not always the case when we rented through others!) Janet was very thorough and told us everything we needed to know about the apartment. She even gave us her cell phone number in case we had any additional questions or concerns. Like most rental properties, this apartment came equipped with an Apartment Manual explaining how to use the appliances, the check-out procedures and etc. Unlike most other apartment manuals I have seen this manual was very detailed and extremely helpful. It even offered restaurant suggestions and transportation information. Melinda, the owner, has really thought of every detail to ensure her guests have a wonderful stay! From the first time I inquired about the apartment everything was handled professionally. Melinda went above and beyond to make sure we were 100% satisfied! We will look no further for an apartment rental the next time we are in the City of Love! This apartment is a true gem in the heart of Paris!

IPC in West Africa
In the early 2000s, the Permanent Interstate Committee for Drought Control in the Sahel (Comité permanent Inter-Etats de Lutte contre la Sécheresse dans le Sahel, CILSS) developed a Harmonized Framework for the analysis and identification of areas at risk and vulnerable groups in the Sahel (Cadre Harmonisé).
The framework is based on different methodologies used by actors involved in food security analysis, with the aim to inform decision makers and guide action and response within the region.
The Harmonized Framework Technical Steering Committee comprises various governmental and non-governmental stakeholders at the regional level. This Committee is responsible for monitoring and directing activities towards the implementation of the initiative in CILSS countries.
The Harmonized Framework underwent validation tests in the CILSS countries leading to the drafting of a a Cadre Harmonisé Methodological Note. Similarly to IPC, the strength of the Harmonized Framework is to rely on the existing information systems already in place.
The 2005 crisis in Niger stressed the importance of measuring the severity of food insecurity as well as to rely on a monitoring system that can encompass different indicators to triangulate food security information in the region. At the meeting of the Technical Committee of the harmonized framework in July 2008, in Niamey, it was agreed to introduce some elements of the IPC analysis in the Harmonized Framework. Particularly, some of the indicators, the severity scale and cartographic protocols were introduced.
With the development of IPC Manual V2.0, discussions is progressing to further improve the Cadre Harmonisé. A team of technical experts including representatives from CILSS, WFP, FAO, FEWS NET, Oxfam, ACF, Save the Children, with the participation of the IPC Global Support Unit (GSU), are leading technical consultations to modify some elements to fit the context of West Africa.
Currently, participating countries in West Africa fall within two IPC stages of implementation:

Run this in Terminal:
system_profiler -xml -micro > test.spx; open test.spx -a "System Information"
You'll see its icon show in the Dock, then vanish. What's happening is System Information expects a property list file that has a dictionary as its root element. The system_profiler has an undocumented "micro" option that generates a smaller report, used in crash reports and elsewhere in the system. This report, when combined with the "xml" option, produces a property list with an array root element. System Information assumes it'll always be a dictionary.
This is from 10.8.3. Even on 10.6.8 the same bug exists, however it appears the code catches the exception so it doesn't crash the app, according to the Console log. Apparently that try block got removed in a later version since the app crashes now.
The lesson from this is when working with property list objects from serialized sources, always check the class of the object (in Foundation) using -[NSObject isKindOfClass:] or the TypeID (in CoreFoundation) using CFGetTypeID() before working with the object.

The Fionavar Tapestry is a trilogy of High Fantasy novels by Guy Gavriel Kay, set partly in our own contemporary world, but mostly in the fictional world of Fionavar.The trilogy is set firmly and consciously in the Tolkien tradition of High Fantasy. Kay has said that one of his motives for writing it was to show that the 'matter' of High Fantasy was deep enough to be used in various original ways, and that the genre did not have to become debased into nothing but pale Tolkien imitations.The Tapestry tells the tale of five young Canadians, Kimberly (Kim) Ford, Jennifer Lowell, Dave Martyniuk, Paul Schafer and Kevin Laine, who are taken to Fionavar, the first of all worlds, by Loren Silvercloak, a mage of that world. Ostensibly invited to come as guests of the court for a celebration of the anniversary of the monarch's ascension to the throne, all five students quickly find that their roles in Fionavar are far more complex than they originally expected.The book is well known for keeping good track of its Loads and Loads of Characters, drawing a good amount of its themes and setting from Celtic and Norse Myths, as well as Arthurian Legend.The story is divided into 3 books:

Show Number: 1403
Air Dates: January 15, 2014 - January 21, 2014
E-Chievement Award: Denis Hayes
This week's encore broadcast welcomes two world-class Americana groups to eTown Hall. Born in the heartland of America, guitar-plucking troubadour Pokey LaFarge has been hitching through the countryside and whisking off to faraway lands ever since he was a teenager. Accompanied by his band, The South City Three, Pokey LaFarge takes the eTown audience on a musical journey through the sounds of America's past in a way that makes it almost impossible to believe these guys are still in their 20s. Shovels & Rope, a Charleston, South Carolina-based duo consisting of Cary Ann Hearst and Michael Trent, also join us. This husband and wife duo stirs up a righteous racket with a one-of-a-kind sound made with old guitars, harmonicas, soulful singing and a junkyard drum kit. Our in-person E-Chievement Award interview rounds out this week's stellar musical guests, as we catch up with Denis Hayes, environmental activist and co-founder of Earth Day. It's one you won't want to miss.

Morphologyablaut reduplication
EtymologyEtymology and primary sense uncertain; a reduplicated formation such as is commonly found in words of contemptuous signification. If the original application be to a musical instrument, the word may have been invented as an imitation of the sound; cf. Du. giegagen to hee-haw', bray. On the other hand, if the primary notion was that of a gaudy object', the suggestion may have come from the vb. gaw, with its variants or synonyms gow, gew. It is not impossible that the word as applied to a musical instrument may be an independent formation. The mod.Du. giegauw, recorded once in the sense flourish, scalloped border', and now preserved only in a phrase of obscure origin belonging to the game of merels, is supposed by the Du. lexicographers to be an adoption of the Eng. word. The commonly accepted view has been that the earliest form, which is written giuegoue (Ancren Riwle) should be read as givegove, and that the word is a reduplicated formation from the root of give v. On this supposition it would be identical with giff-gaff and the MDu. ghiveghave, of which a single example is known. But if this were the etymology, the initial would have been , not g, in the southern texts of the Ancren Riwle (unless indeed these texts have been transcribed from an original in northern dialect). Further, the proposed explanation does not account plausibly for the recorded senses, and it is doubtful whether the assumed development of givegove into gugaw (15th c.), guygaw (16th c.), gewgaw, is phonetically possible. The probability is that the u in giuegoue is a vowel.
a, gaudy trifle, plaything, or ornament, a pretty thing of little value, a toy or bauble.
b, fig. A paltry thing of no account, a trifle. In pl. also, vanities'.
c, Used depreciatingly of a person.
2, a disparaging term for a flute or pipe.

Yamaha YPG-235 76-Key Portable Grand PianoIf you're looking for a reasonably priced piano replacement, the YPG-235 is an excellent choice. It is the music student or professional musicians' answer to "I need more keys!" and a great solution for a keyboard that will grows with their needs of students. It features 76 non-weighted keys that not only look like piano keys but have a Graded Soft Touch (GST) action with different levels of resistance, making it easier for a budding musician to move to an acoustic or digital piano.Full Keyboard ModeThe YPG-235 delivers on its piano theme with a special mode of fingering called Full Keyboard Mode. This allows you to play the keyboard like a piano; for example a chord with the right hand and bass notes with the left. When using the accompaniment feature, the virtual band will follow these chords. Traditional portable keyboards normally require you to chord on the left side of the keyboard, in the bass section, which is foreign to most piano players. However, the YPG-235 is also capable of this mode, for those who prefer or are used to it.Yamaha Education Suite: Helps you learn to playThe YPG-235 has 30 built-in songs plus 70 more on included CD-ROM for you to learn to play using the Yamaha Education Suite. The songs are separated into left and right hand parts, providing 7 levels of lessons plus a convenient chord dictionary.6-Track SequencerImagine capturing your child's first performance or writing and recording your own songs. With the YPG-235, you have the equivalent of a built-in multi-track recorder to record one or multiple instrument parts at a time and assign each part to a different track. Six tracks are provided to accommodate sophisticated melodies, chord accompaniment and rhythm parts.Computer Connectivity: USB and Flash ROMBesides the 30 built-in songs and 70 more on the CD, the YPG-235 comes with the ability to connect to a computer via USB, so you can download more songs from the Internet into the internal Flash ROM (PC only), and use all of the Yamaha Education Suite features to help you learn to play them. Yamaha makes it easy to get connected with the new PC button. Now, instead of wading through function menus and fighting through a maze of selections, one button is your expressway to music on the web and your computer. In addition, once connected, you can play your songs into the computer (PC and Mac), edit them if necessary, and email them to your friends and family. And, with General MIDI (GM) and XGlite compatibility, song data always plays back with the correct sounds.Ease of OperationThere are many tools in this keyboard that make it easy to be a power user from the first day you own the keyboard.Expandable Music Database: Complete keyboard setups by song title. The keyboard selects an appropriate voice for the right hand melody, the correct musical style and the correct tempo. Simply call up a song title and start playing.One Touch Setting (OTS): Provides you with a recommended voice with effects for each Style. For example, on a jazz style OTS might be piano, for a Latin style it might be acoustic guitar and for a rock style it might be a guitar with overdrive, etc.Registration Memory: Set the keyboard up just the way you like and take a digital snapshot by memorizing it to one of the Registration buttons. Load and save up to 16 Registrations to User memory. The Registration buttons are conveniently located just above the keyboard.Performance Assistant Technology: Performance assistant technology is a feature from Yamaha that guarantees that you can't play a wrong melody note or chord. Here's how it works. Select a song, press the Performance Assistant button Chord Mode, and play the keyboard – any notes you like. Every note you play will fit the music. If you move up the keyboard, the pitch goes up. If you move down, the pitch goes down. Play a perfect arpeggio, or play chords in time with the music, or really "go for it" and play a solo. As long as performance assistant is "on", you're "on".Imagine being able to give a concert to your friends or relatives the very first day that you bring this keyboard home. Well, with the YPG-235 and performance assistant technology, you can. This keyboard is the first in the line to offer Chord/Free Mode in addition to Chord Mode described above. Chord/Free Mode allows those that have learned a melody with their right hand to have the keyboard correct the notes of their left hand. This allows you to concentrate on one hand at a time while learning. Play the correct notes with the right and any notes with the left and you're making beautiful music. In addition to working with any of the internal songs with chords, this feature also works with XF MIDI files.32-Note Polyphony and 16-Part MultitimbralIn electronic keyboards, the more sounds made at the same time — polyphony — the more memory is needed. Obviously, more is always better, because too little polyphony can cause dropouts in dense passages of music. The YPG-235 has 32 notes of polyphony and will play back 16 different parts or sounds at once (16-part multitimbral); enough for the most demanding needs.Digital EffectsYamaha has long been a world leader in digital signal processing technology. In fact, Yamaha professional audio products are found in most professional recording studios around the world. The YPG-235 takes full advantage of this know-how, giving you an extensive range of nine, top-quality reverb effects that simulate playing in everything from a small room to a large spacious concert hall and four chorus effects that add richness to electric pianos and guitars in particular. You'll also find 26 types of Harmony effects for your melody part.Auto Accompaniment StylesIn addition to the 100 songs mentioned above, the YPG-235 also has auto accompaniment styles that "follow" your playing. Simply select a style of music from the 160 built-in styles (example Rock) and start playing. The YPG-235 will create a backup band (bass, drums, strings, guitar, etc.) and "follow" you through the song. You can play your songs and try different genres of music. And if you can't find the right style for your song, you can go to the Yamaha musicsoft website, preview from the selection, purchase and transfer it to your keyboard (PC only).Portable Grand: Industry's Best PianoYou're never more than a button push away from realistic piano sound in your portable keyboards. One press of the Portable Grand button resets the entire keyboard to a stereo-sampled piano — perfect for when it's time to practice. Yamaha is known around the world for the quality of our acoustic pianos and this attention to detail is evident as you enjoy the warmth and clarity of the YPG-235 Portable Grand piano. And, of course, the keyboard includes a Sustain Pedal jack on the back for practicing and playing piano pieces.

- Presenter
- Flip Stander
Duration: 50 minutes
Wildlife film. Many years ago lions thrived in the deserts of Namibia's Skeleton Coast, until they were exterminated by man. Six years ago maverick biologist Flip Stander discovered a tiny remnant population alive and well in nearby mountains, and started to study them. Their numbers have grown and they are now returning to the desert in increasing numbers. But if these lions are to continue roaming here, Flip will have to persuade local people that these lions are worth more alive than dead.

Mark your calendars for March 4th and 5th. There's a brand new by-developers/for-developers conference called Code PaLOUsa. Inspired by the instantaneously-sold-out CodeMash (including the non-profit part), Code PaLOUsa is in downtown Louisville, KY at the Seelbach Hotel.
There are a whole bunch of great speakers lined up, including Douglas Crockford and Eric Sink. And for some reason, they even let me in.
When faced with a problem, software developers have a natural tendency to introduce another problem, which they will then solve in hopes of more easily solving the first. Of course, this tendency acts recursively, leading many to build a Matryoshka-like nesting of problems inside of problems inside of problems. One of the common patterns that emerge from this vicious cycle is "extensibility"; that is, attempting to develop software that meets some unforeseen and unknowable need through clever engineering, whether that means plug-ins, "mod-ability", or some other esoteric system that allows software to change without actually changing. While extensibility can be useful, it's most often an anti-pattern and serves to the detriment of the software that's implemented it. In this language-independent talk, I'll discuss what types of extensibility can be developed, extensibility design patterns, how to decide when (or when not) to use extensibility, and what happens when extensibility goes wrong.
If you register before Febuary 21st, it will only cost you $200 (which, for the record, doesn't even come close to covering the *cough*overpriced*cough* venue costs). If you use discount code
TDWTF at checkout, not only will you save $25, but you'll also get one of the elusive The Daily WTF mugs.
Register soon, because the "last minute" price will be going up to $250.
Code PaLOUsa is a two-day, eight-track software development conference in Louisville, KY on March 4-5, 2011 designed to cover all aspects of software development regardless of technology stack. We will have sessions revolving around Microsoft, Java, Ruby, PHP, and Clojure; along with sessions on higher, platform-agnostic levels. There will be 60 technical presentations and panel discussions from well-known professionals in the software development community and a keynote talk from Douglas Crockford of Yahoo! and JavaScript/JSON fame.
The tracks for Code PaLOUsa 2011:
You bring the code... I'll bring the Jack'n'Coke. Good times to be had by all.

Huevos Rancheros Over Jalapeno-Cheddar Waffles
As it turns out, one of the two things I received was a coupon for a dozen of Eggland's Best eggs (which I received as part of the Foodbuzz Tastemaker program). I'd purchased Eggland eggs before, but didn't realize that they were nutritionally enhanced. They have less fat, more Omega 3s, and more of Vitamins E, B12, and D than regular eggs. All I remembered was the cute little red stamps on each egg in the carton.
We were challenged to come up with a new recipe using Eggland eggs. I don't think I'm a super creative person in general. There are people in the world who are creators...be it music, art, recipes, technology, etc. Then there are the rest of us who may be good at executing the creator's vision. I tend to think I'm the latter. I'm much better at following and/or adapting recipes. I say all this to explain why "my recipe" is not exactly brand new or exciting. I came up with it on my own, but it's not like either of the two things never existed before me. ;)
Anyway. That aside, I will say this: This meal is DELICIOUS. It is potently spicy, smokey, hearty, and comforting. The textures all work well together. It would be a very heavy brunch meal (which could be okay if you're really hungry, or if you downsized the portions), but it's perfect for a satisfying dinner. It doesn't take too much time to execute if you have help in the kitchen, or if you're good at multitasking. The tricky part, of course, is poaching the eggs in the ranchero sauce. I poached 8 eggs over the course of 2 nights for this meal, and only 1 had a runny yolk. D'oh!
Huevos Rancheros Over Jalapeno-Cheddar Waffles (By Heather....base cornmeal waffles recipe adapted from Paula Deen)
For the Waffles:
-1 3/4 cups flour
-1 1/4 cups yellow cornmeal
-1 tablespoon baking powder
-1/4 teaspoon sugar
-1 teaspoon salt
-1/2 teaspoon cumin
-1/2 teaspoon chili powder
-1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
-3 tablespoons jalapeno, minced
-2 cups buttermilk
-3 tablespoons vegetable oil
-2 large eggs
-1/2 cup shredded cheddar
1. Preheat waffle iron to manufacturer's directions.
2. In a large mixing bowl, mix together all dry ingredients. Add the jalapeno, buttermilk, vegetable oil, and eggs. Mix thoroughly. Stir in the cheddar.
3. Approximately a generous 1/2 cup of batter per waffle should do the trick in the waffle iron. Cook each until golden-brown. Set aside.
For the Huevos Rancheros:
-About 2 tablespoons vegetable or olive oil
-2 small or 1 large chile in adobo sauce, chopped finely
-1/2 large onion, chopped
-2 cloves garlic, minced
-28 ounce can diced tomatoes with juice reserved
-15oz can black beans, drained and rinsed
-2 ounces (roughly 1/2 a can) of diced green chiles
-1/2 teaspoon salt
-1 teaspoon cumin
-1/2 teaspoon chili powder
-1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
-1/2 teaspoon unsweetened cocoa powder
-2 tablespoons dark beer or ale (this is optional, but it adds a little smokiness...if you're drinking beer anyway, you may as well just add it in!)
-8 large eggs
-Shredded cheddar and cilantro to garnish
1. Preheat oil in a dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion, adobo chiles, and garlic. Saute about 5 minutes or until softened.
2. Add green chiles, tomatoes and their juice, beans, salt, cumin, garlic powder, chili powder, cocoa and beer. Stir well, partially cover, and let thicken slightly for about 20 minutes at a simmer.
3. When you're ready, gently crack 4 eggs into the sauce. Cover completely and let simmer about 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and let sit another 2-3 minutes. The egg whites should be white, not translucent--I think that's probably the key in knowing whether they're "done" or not. Don't overcook them like I did! It's still good, but it was far tastier with a runny yolk. Remove those eggs and cook the next 4 in a similar fashion (OR, if you want, you can reheat the sauce the next day and cook 4 more then--you may need to add a little more beer or chicken stock to get enough sauce to poach on the second day).
-Makes 4-8 servings, depending on the size of your portions.
A big thank you to Foodbuzz and Eggland's Best for the opportunity to test drive these great eggs!

I love this idea of mixing Huevos Rancheros and waffles together. It's very creative in my opinion, and you have to realize almost nothing is not new. What's new and creative is that you put them together and you did it on your own :)

A New Look for Portent Interactive
Ian Lurie Feb 19 2008
We just launched a new look for my company, Portent Interactive.
I lost the battle to keep my picture the hell off the site. I did win the typographical battle though, so we opted for a larger typeface.
We've also added a (gasp) blog where the Portent team can dwell on everything from design to PPC to my unusual taste in desk paraphenalia (currently including model Mark VI Viper, a little wind-up spring loaded thing that skitters around my desk like a spastic squirrel, and a duck tape holder).
Have a look and let me know if you have any feedback.

I love the new site design. The flash banner really gives a personal feel to the company.
The site looks great and it's nice to see what the members of your team look like. Maybe now we can have the battle of the live Ian on PI and the cartoon Ian on CM. I wonder who will win?
Ah, sadly the photo-ian and vector-ian rarely meet…
That's great to hear since it's just what we were aiming for. Thanks!
You should do a post on the website project.
1. The design process
2. The content – how long did it take
3. The cost – how much time did y'all spend on it.
4. It says Chris did it on Movable Type – that's neat. Can you do the same for other customers? What cost? Thanks
Great look BTW.
It's very nice! Congratulations. I like the personal touch of the photos. Gives you the sense you're actually dealing with real people, not some anonymous firm!
Ian – the site looks great. Nice and clean, and I love the personal touch. Cute baby pic!

What The Papers Say - September 2
The views on this page are taken from the local and national press and do not necessarily reflect the views of Everton.
David Moyes has ended a summer of frustration by shattering Everton's transfer record to sign Standard Liege midfielder Marouane Fellaini.
The Goodison outfit beat the midnight transfer deadline by capturing the highly-rated Belgium international on a five-year contract for a club record amount of £13million.
The deal was still to be rubber-stamped when the Daily Post went to press in the early hours of this morning.
But Everton are confident the transfer will go through for a fee that eclipses the £11.25m they splashed out to sign Yakubu from Middlesbrough 12 months ago.
Earlier in the day, Everton had completed the signing of Louis Saha from Manchester United and veteran Wigan Athletic goalkeeper Carlo Nash.
Everton have agreed a record £12 million deal for CSKA Moscow's Brazilian star Vagner Love - but he won't join until next year.
Although CSKA will sell Love, they have demanded that the forward stays until the Russian season ends. He is now due to join in January.
Everton have confirmed the signing of French striker Louis Saha from Manchester United for an undisclosed fee.
Saha has signed a two-year deal with an option for a third year after passing a medical over the weekend.
The Toffees have also revealed a move for Inter Milan winger Victor Obinna has fallen through after an unsuccessful work permit application.
And Everton have also completed the signing of goalkeeper Carlo Nash from Wigan for an undisclosed fee.
David Moyes has handed the former Preston goalkeeper, 34, a two-year deal with the option for a third.

Cd. Juarez, Chih. (KDBC) — New Juárez mayor Enrique Serrano is tackling the city's budget problems head on. Serrano who took over mayoral duties just last week, cut cell phones privileges for city workers, and police officers aren't immune to the budgetary changes either.
Serrano announced if a Juárez police officer is involved in a crash, while in a police unit, the officer will have to pay for the cost of the accident and will be transferred to walk the downtown beat. Serrano is hopeful these and other measures will reduce the city's budget.

Hello All. Only just got into photography last year, and took a beginners and advanced night school course which I really enjoyed, but thing is the tutor said keep your camera settings on RAW, well last weekend went on a full day with Canon Essentials Course, only told me to keep it on Jpeg, Confused or what, whats best, ohh and I have Elements 10. Thanks Pete
RAW stores all the info from the sensor, but needs to be converted with software, with jpeg the camera does the conversion from RAW, most do a relly good job. The advantage of RAW capture is the total control of how the image will appear, raw conversion can be an art form of it's own right and there are many arguments; sorry debates about the various software/ program options. Hope this gives a little more info.
Quote: a full day with Canon Essentials Course, only told me to keep it on Jpeg
Very poor of them to make such a statement without qualifying it i.e. explaining the pro's & con's of the two specific formats.
Hi Pete,
You can also set your 600D to shoot simultaneously in Raw AND jpeg - that's what i do. Full size RAW + S2 jpeg.
But i never really use Jpeg apart from to quickly give to friends etc straight out of camera.
Raw is so much better if you want to take control of the processing afterwards and you have Elements 10 (same as me) which is great for individual file processing. I've had elements 6,8 & 10 over the years and am still learnign new things in it - with the files processed always from the RAW version of the shot i took.
Maybe the essentials course wanted you to only have small files afterwards as these would be faster/smaller copy to a PC.
JPEG is very good, and using this with the canon picture styles offered in camera is even better, BUT only RAW allows you to fully adjust the photo afterwards. So RAW gets my first vote.
Best Wishes
Cheers all, hmmm Stuart I did have my camera on RAW and Jpeg S2, so it's now going back to that setting, she didn't really emphasize why just have it on Jpeg sadly, but still a great day and learned quite a lot, slowly getting to grips with Elements 10 Stuart, and I mean slowly, just need to get out more and try things suppose thats the only way to learn, I am going to upload some shots soon on here, so hopefully get loads of feed back, the reason I went to the essentials day is I got a free voucher when I purchased camera, thanks again all. Pete
hi there i a m new to this site & fairly new to DSLR photography, but have been using photoshop for many many years now, the reason i mention P/S in reference to RAW or Jpg is how do you edit your photos, if you do use P/S or something similar every time you re-save a Jpg you will loose some quality, so therefore shoot RAW & save it in PSD format, not sure what the format should be if not in P/S other than Tiff.
I convert RAW to TIFF but PSD format will give you about half the file size, if storage is a factor for you.
From the TIFF/PSD you can resize, do further crops etc before you finally save it to JPEG... possibly several JPEGs with different crops etc.

"Further Information" Fields for BP Users
With BP installed we have these "Further Information" fields in the WP/BP user profile backend ("Address", "Address Line 2″, "City" etc.) which are normally used by the BP registration process. For a new BP site I'm using the WP-Members plugin by Chad Butler for registration, what creates separate fields for registration.
I would like to delete these BP "Further Information" fields and was searching for them with phpMyAdmin but couldn't find them. Please could somebody give me a hint where they are in the db.

Still missing: Search for lost Midlands children goes on
These are the lost youngsters of the Midlands – missing children who have disappeared without a trace.
As the world hunts for Madeleine McCann there are almost a dozen families across the region who, like parents Kate and Gerry McCann, are still desperate for answers over where there loved ones are.
And the 10 youngsters who have vanished from the streets of the region are just a handful of the 121 children across the UK that the Missing People charity is working to track down.
Some, like Linh Bui, aged 16, have been missing for a matter of months while others, like Stourport's Maria Aldridge have not been seen for decades.
Schoolboy pals David Spencer, aged 13, and Patrick Warren, just 11, went missing in 1996 on their way to meet a relative.
One of the most high-profile outstanding cases is that of Natalie Putt, the 17-year-old from the Lower Gornal area of Dudley, who has been missing for more than 10 years.
The young mother vanished in September 2003 and has not been seen since.
Last month there was a renewed appeal to mark the 10th anniversary of her disappearance but Natalie's half-sister Rebecca Coggins says she is still no closer to knowing what happened. Despite that though she says she will never give up hope.
"I thought when they launched the new appeal, somebody might remember something, but there's been nothing at all, it's exactly the same," she said.
Mrs Coggins, who now lives in Nottingham, said she hoped the renewed publicity surrounding Madeleine McCann following a feature on Crimewatch, might help keep Natalie's case in the public's mind and added: "I think you have got to remain hopeful, you can't give up and say there's no hope.
"We're quite a strong family, and we tend to support each other. Me and my other sister talk about her quite a lot, she's the missing part of our family.
"We often say things like 'what would Natalie think about that?'
"We're three sisters, not two, and it's very hard, it eats away at you."

Dear Rainbow Garden Families,
I want to express my gratitude for the opportunity to meet with you during parent teacher conferences. I appreciate all your questions and insights. It is so valuable when we can work together as a team.
Now that it is November, I am asking the children to wear coats, hats, and gloves every day. Rain pants or snow pants are also helpful for added warmth. Some families find it is easiest to have a hat and pair of gloves that stay at school. Also, some of the children find it difficult to hold hands when they are wearing particularly bulky mittens. Please don't forget to label everything with your child's name. Thank you for remembering to bring extra clothes. On rainy or snowy days, many of the children need to change into warm, dry clothes when we come inside.
We have one birthday this month! Our dear Ms. Alya's birthday is November 24th. Happy birthday Ms. Alya!
Our annual Lantern Walk will be held this Sunday, November 10, at 5:30. This is a beautiful and reverent festival that we share with the whole school community. Monday-Tuesday children have already brought home their lanterns and the other children will bring theirs home on Friday. I am including both a tea light and a battery candle so you can choose which you'd rather use. (The battery candles are particularly useful if it is windy during the walk.)
Look for upcoming information about the Winter Fair. The Rainbow Garden is responsible for helping Mrs. Hunter set up the art display. If you are interested being more involved in the Winter Fair, please let me know and I can point you in the right direction.
A reminder that Tamarack Waldorf School asks parents to limit media exposure, particularly for small children. The following is an excerpt from the Family Handbook.
"To support the work we do as a Waldorf school, we seek your cooperation in limiting
your child's exposure to television and other electronic media. At the very minimum, we
ask you to please not allow your children to view movies, television, computer or video
games before coming to school or before going to bed. It is especially important for the
children in kindergarten through fifth grade to be as free from the influences of the media
as possible.'
Thank you for your time and feel free to call me if there are any questions, at 372-5478 (home) or 277-0009 (school).
I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday full of family, warmth, and peace.
Mrs. Faith
