Personalised Remember When Birthday Edition Newspaper Book
The Birthday Edition Newspaper Book is the perfect gift for anyone who's ever wondered what was making the headlines on each and every one of their birthdays.
Here's how it works... The personalised Birthday Edition Newspaper Books feature a front page newspaper reprint from the recipient's date of birth and then every birthday thereafter. So if, for example, their birth date was the 1st September 1953, this will be the first front page to appear. After that, it'll be 1st September 1954, then 55, then 56 and so on, all the way through to present day. Opposite each front-page reprint is a blank page that the recipient can fill with photos and messages that relate to that year. As you'd expect, it's also worth bearing in mind that the book's thickness will depend greatly on the age of the recipient.
To personalise this unique Birthday Edition newspaper book, simply add the recipient's name followed by their date of birth (dd/mm/yyyy). e.g. Jenny Smith 18/12/1962

This year, we are offering 21 separate tutorials including 10 new or updated ones. All tutorials are organized into tracks to allow attendees to easily identify those educational opportunities that align most closely with their areas of interest. Most courses have been selected to directly complement the topics that will be presented in the technical program, from Avionics Design, Design Assurance, Systems Engineering and Communication Systems to Spacecraft Avionics, AIS/MET, UAS and NextGen concepts. Some of these short courses directly address the theme of the conference relating the Design of an Air Transportation System with Multi-Level Resilience in the various digital avionics system disciplines. [More]
"Resilience in Navigation Systems – A Pilot's View"
Albert (Al) Herndon is a Principal Multi-Discipline Engineer at The MITRE Corporation's Center for Advanced Aviation System Development on the PBN Operations Team. He has worked on RNAV and RNP procedure development and implementation, aircraft avionics navigation capability and flight management systems differences both domestically and internationally for over 13 years.

The Gold Canyon Gunfighters will entertain us by depicting the ruthless life of the frontier. [more]
The Week-at-a-Glance is now available online.
Please join us for the 33rd DASC in Colorado Springs, at the foothills of the Rocky Mountains and in the shadow of Pike's Peak. The conference theme for the 33rd DASC focuses on the use of policy, economics, and technology to achieve multi-level resilience in aerospace and air transportation systems. In particular, plenary speakers and track themes will address the balance of component to system resilience and the trade-offs of performance, flexibility, design assurance, and safety at different levels of the air transportation system.
This year's DASC continues the tradition of highlighting the latest trends in digital avionics through technical presentations, professional education courses, exhibits, and special events. The 33rd DASC will maintain its dual focus on onboard avionics and infrastructures that provide air navigation services. Within these domains, there are many emerging research, development, and analysis areas related to avionics equipage, aircraft interoperability, and ground-/space-based systems. Findings here can be significant drivers for both the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen) and the Single European Sky Air Traffic Management (ATM) Research (SESAR) technology roadmaps, but only if exposed in venues such as the DASC.
As in past DASC successes, we will host exhibitors, highlight our conference sponsors, and provide a venue for publishing. We'll have acknowledged experts giving tutorials, senior representatives leading our plenary sessions, and international professionals for an interactive workshop environment. We will also continue our design competition for high school students.
On behalf of the AIAA Digital Avionics Technical Committee and the IEEE Aerospace Electronics Systems Society, I encourage you to participate in this year's DASC if you are involved in any aspect of aviation or aerospace electronics. Through your participation, you will help to influence the future directions of industry, government, and academia as we all work together to transform flight.

And to correct your statement, you do not need over ten betas for a minor release such as this. Now, if it were iOS 6, it'd be different. But this is a very small release and does not require as much time as a major update would. Lol I love all the people with only about 2-20 posts that think they're smarter than everyone and have the nerve to call them stupid and what not. Please don't play games. Start posting real posts that are not criticizing others, and then I might start listening.
In school, Americans are taught that conjunctions should be avoided, because they are informal. That's understandable. What I don't understand is why people think that would've and could've are short for would of and could of. How dumb are you? Please tell me that English is not your first language. Would of, really?
Oh yeah, and to keep this on topic, hurry up, Apple. We want something finished to untether. Where's our iTunes Match?
Can you little boys stop arguing already, darn create another thread for all that BS. Now back to the real subject 5.0.1, Can anyone vouch if this update actually fixes the battery drain from IOS 5??
i put this on my phone today but itunes says it cant activate as it a developers update do i need a developers account or something to try this 5.0.1
Since when has being bored been an excuse for piracy?
i suppose never bud but bet we all done it some point excuse my lack of respect
Beta 2 in comparison to my experience with Beta 1 is terrible. On B1, my phone had been off charge for ten hours. I had checked Twitter, Facebook, made a call and plenty of texts. At the end of the day, I still had 90% battery.
Beta 2, I had 80% at the end of the day and did roughly the same sort of usage. I'm rolling back to compare.

It's one of those somewhat trivial projects (or so you think) until you get down to the "nitty gritty" of making everything work.
"All we need to do..." is always WAY more complex than what's thought. So it make sense that storing data in the most efficient and usable manner would go without saying. However, time and time again, I see database files where the data is stored the "FileMaker easy way" and this just shouldn't be done.
There are those rare cases when you should make a value list with your common names such as "Kindergarten, 1st grade, 2nd grade, etc.". But, more often than not, you should be storing your data in a more optimized fashion. Making it work within the user interface is what becomes the issue of implementation.
This video presents the optimized and efficient manner of storing some of your checkbox and radio button data. It's a great lesson on how to really structure some complex stuff in a very easy fashion!
One small gotcha
One small gotcha to be aware of, especially with the example you've shown--when using "0" as a value for your lists:
Since Filemaker considers "0" a "False" when evaluating as a Boolean, it's imperative when using this that you consider the possible ramifications to calculations elsewhere in which you'll use that field. If you have any that might result in the field being evaluated as a Boolean value, having a zero in your data list may return unexpected results.
For example, in our solution, the developer didn't consider this and as a result, there are some filtered portals in which Kindergarten students simply won't appear, though all other grades including Preschool (-1) work fine.
Matthew Miller
experientia docet
Certainly true
Any time you're going to use any of the techniques shown on this site, you need to take into account how they factor into your solution and the logic being used.
None of the techniques I present are offered as absolutes. You can always adjust them to account for various circumstances.
For example a tuple of values starting at zero can easily be shifted to one starting with the number 1 (0,1,2,3) may not work where what you really need is (1,2,3,4). It always depends and...
This is always a matter of who is doing the coding and how much they know about what they are doing. ;) +1 and -1 are amazingly good friends. :)

The city of Henderson on Thursday gave FOX5 two pictures of Onion, the 120-pound Mastiff/Rhodesian that killed a little boy in April of last year. Onion has lived at a Henderson animal control facility since a Colorado-based animal rights group managed to appeal a court decision to have the dog put down.
Gina Greisen with Nevada Voters for Animals had been alleging that the city is not treating Onion humanely. She maintained her stand even after seeing pictures of his cage.
"He's been locked in that cage. He's not been allowed out of that cage for the past year," she said.
In a statement released on Thursday, Bud Cranor with the city of Henderson said, "The dog is being cared for by staff and regularly sees a veterinarian. The veterinarian has said the dog is in good health and has space that is adequate for the animal."
Greisen said the pictures don't tell the whole story.
"People who believe he should live and people who believe he should die agree that how he is being kept by the city of Henderson is cruel and inhumane," she said.
Nevada Voters for Animals has put together an online petition to encourage Henderson leaders to treat Onion humanely while he is locked up.
On July 3, the Nevada Supreme Court will hear the case on whether Onion should be put down or released to the Lexus Project, the Colorado-based organization that defends dogs that are to be euthanized.
Greisen wants Onion to be taken out of his cage and walked occasionally. Cranor would not say whether that is happening. He did add in his statement that, "The dog was declared vicious after it killed the baby boy."

White House press secretary Tony Snow was back on the job Monday, five weeks after doctors discovered a recurrence of his cancer. He said he would soon undergo chemotherapy "just to make sure we've got the thing knocked out."
Snow, 51, has been on medical leave since undergoing exploratory surgery last month, when doctors discovered that a growth in his abdominal area was cancerous and had metastasized, or spread, to the liver.
Snow started typically early, appearing Monday on the North Lawn of the White House for a series of morning television network news shows, including an interview on "Fox and Friends," with his former Fox network colleagues.
"I've recovered from the surgery, more or less," Snow said in a CNN interview. "I'll start doing chemo on Friday. We'll do it every other week for four months."
Once a month, Snow said, "We'll do a maintenance chemo just to make sure we've got the thing knocked out and put in remission."
Snow had his colon removed in 2005 and underwent six months of chemotherapy after being diagnosed with colon cancer.
Over the weekend, Snow spoke to students and alumni at Davidson College, from which he graduated in 1977. During an impromptu question-and-answer session there, Snow said he has become closer to God and his family because of the cancer, The Charlotte Observer reported.
"I am actually enjoying everything more than I ever have," Snow said, according to the newspaper. "God hasn't promised us tomorrow, but he has promised us eternity."
Snow is married with three children, 10, 11 and 14.

7 Responses to "Tony Snow back on the job"
Unbelievably, it was refreshing to see Mr. Snow return to the job.
Dana "Shits where she eats" Perino makes him look like a saint.
You do have to realize that this isn't saying much for Snow's track record, but Perino should be stuck back into a corner of the basement where she belongs.
Bill Jonke
…glad to see I was not alone in not caring for Dana 'when I grow up I want to be even snottier' Perino –
…I keep thinking I am hearing some high schooler talk about how she doesn't like Muffy because she's mean to her –
…and if you don't like her, that's okay because her boss is THE PRESIDENT – whoop de ducking foo –
Ahh … Tony is back on the job … alive and well … unlike the men and women who have died in Iraq in his absence in the illegal war his boss started and continues to support. Apparently there is no justice. The face of the individual passing the lie really doesn't matter to me.
To make posting this a REAL F*CKING TREAT I got to see Bill O'Reilly's mug looking at me from a pollingpoint media survey advert while typing it …
The horror … the horror ….
Jeeeezusss Keeerist, dump the Bill "Gasbag" O' Liely photo will ya? How can anyone formulate a thought in the presence of that smirking asshole?
That fast-talking air-head is totally without inflection and sounds like her fast forward button is jammed. She does have the smirk however.
tell us how you really feel about him – don't hold back!
Personally, I'd like to perform "smirkectomies" on Bill, Georgie boy, Tony Snow(job) and Dick(head) Cheney …
They all SUCK! Not one of them has an ounce of integrity, honor, or respect for thier fellow americans. All of them can rot in hell for all I care. What a collection of worthless disgusting bags of sh*t. O'Rielly is the biggest turd of all.
Washington DC is just like any other cesspool. The biggest chunks always rise to the top.

Step out for a screening of the classic film, The Rocky Horror Picture Show with the Bow Tie Beauties leading the fun on and off the stage. Stay for DJ dance following the film.
Still in limited release nearly 37 years after its premiere, The Rocky Horror Picture Show – featuring Tim Curry, Susan Sarandon and Barry Bostwick – has the longest-running theatrical release in film history. In 2005, the film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".
Based in the Sierra foothills of Northern California, Bow-Tie Beauties Burlesque Troupe is a performance group of strong, sensuous women and men with backgrounds in a variety of talents.
Bow-Tie Beauties presents it's own unique blend of dance, circus, and comedy with downright sexiness. Our Troupe's goal is to bring back and share the artform that is burlesque to entertain and support our local communities, and… wear high heels.
Founded over a bottle of champagne in a hotel room in San Francisco, Bow-tie Beauties was born from the brains and hearts of three lovely ladies: Miss Be, Boston Powers and Tiger Lily.
With a little help from their friends, BBB has exploded into the group of outrageously sultry women and men that you can experience today. Every Monday night at 7, BBB holds an open Burlesque class at Sierra Dance Institute, where anyone and everyone (over the age of 18…) may come and show off their sass and saavy, wear as little as possible, and leave the real world behind… at least for an hour.
The Bow-tie Beauties are available for all functions, great and small.
From (believe it or not!) family friendly, to the adult oriented side of tease and entertainment. Come one, come all, and let us entertain you! Pictured to the right are Miss Be, Boston Powers and Tiger Lily, our founders. Can you figure out who is who?
Bounce Bazaar Returns Afterburn Party!
-If you get hungry, the Old 5 Mile house will serving their Italian stone hearth oven baked pizza until midnight!
-The back patio is open for quite conversation and relaxing away from the party. Please respect the neighbors by keeping noise low in the back, when your ready to get rowdy, come join us on the dance floor!

Over the past 7 years, Psy Fi aka Miles Ross has been on a nationwide rampage throwing events, playing major events and making psychedelic bass music. Whether you've been to his weekly party in Eureka CA, Whomp Whomp Wednesdays, cruised the burning man playa stirring up trouble and rocking dance floors or rocking out at a club in Austin TX for SXSW, if you were in attendance chances are you've remembered it and are highly anticipating the next event.
Lately Miles has been hard at work in the studio crafting up next generation psychedelic dubstep music. With an arsenal of cutting edge software and live instrumentation, Psy Fi is on the cutting edge of creating a melodic sound while continuing to deliver nasty and hard hitting beats to the dancefloor. Look out for upcoming releases on Ooze System recordings in 2012.

You are always in for a surprise when he gets behind the wheels of steel, weather it is a new mashup, a guest on the mic, or a freshly released banger…the only thing for sure is he will make you want to bounce. After a set it wont take long for JC to find the other place he feels most comfortable: The dancefloor.

Sonny & the Sunsets appear at the Casbah on Sunday.
It was just a couple months ago that I was recommending Sonny & yhe Sunsets when they were playing at the Casbah, but in case you missed them, or if you saw them and realized just how incredible they were, they return to the Middletown venue once again on Sunday. They're always a great show, and with the Cat Burglars and Christy on board, you'll have a rollicking time. For those ready for a show on the mellow tip, Luke Redfield is an incredible singer/songwriter, and if you haven't seen locals Ed Ghost Tucker yet, this is your perfect chance to do that. Of course, Sunday's listings would be incomplete if I didn't at least mention that Courtney Love is performing at the Belly Up. So, Courtney Love is performing tonight at the Belly Up.

This Industrial Business Could be a Good Pick Now
Anh is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Since the beginning of the year, Entegris (NASDAQ: ENTG) has not performed well, returning only 7.2%, much lower than S&P 500's return of more than 17.8%. Entegris is in the portfolio of several famous investors including Steven Cohen, Jim Simons and Chuck Royce. Is this stock a good buy for investors at its current trading price? Let's find out.
Fluctuating revenue and profits, but strong balance sheet
Entegris, incorporated in 2005, is considered a global manufacturer of more than 17,000 standard and customized products and materials used in processing and manufacturing in the microelectronics industries. It has three main business segments: Contamination Control Solutions, Microenvironments and Specialty Materials. Most of its revenue, $461.8 million, was generated from the Contamination Control Solutions segment. The Contamination Control Solutions segment was also the biggest income contributor with $116.35 million in operating income, while the operating profits of the Microenvironments and the Specialty Materials came in at $37.2 million and $12.3 million, respectively.
In the past five years, Entegris has experienced fluctuating revenue and net income. While revenue stayed around $399 million to $749 million in the period of 2008 – 2012, its net income fluctuated in the range of $(517) million to $124 million during the same period. In 2012, Entegris produced $716 million in revenue and $69 million in net profits, with free cash flow of $65 million. What I like about Entegris is its strong balance sheet. As of March 2013, it had $703 million in equity, $339 million in cash and no debt. The goodwill and intangible assets were quite low as well, at only $45 million. Thus, its tangible book value was $658 million.
Peer comparisons
Entegris is trading at around $9.90 per share, with a total market cap of $1.4 billion. The market values Entegris at around 14.3 times its forward earnings. Compared to its peers, including Pall Corporation (NYSE: PLL) and Parker-Hannifin Corporation (NYSE: PH), its valuation is in the middle of the two peers. Pall is the most expensively valued--at $70.60 per share, Pall is worth around $7.88 billion on the market. The market values Pall at as much as 20.2 times its forward earnings. Pall is considered a global leader in filtration, separation and purification, with diverse end markets. For the full year 2013, the company expected to have flat sales, excluding the foreign exchange impact. Its EPS was estimated to come in at $2.95 to $3.05 per share. Pall pays some dividends to its shareholders, with a yield at 1.4%.
Parker-Hannifin is the cheapest valued among the three companies. At $99.20 per share, the company was worth around $14.90 billion. The market values Parker-Hannifin at 13.5 times its forward earnings. Parker Hannifin is the maker of motion and control technologies, including electromechanical controls and fluid power systems, and it is considered the leader in the motion & control industry. Looking forward, Parker-Hannifin expected to grow its sales by 12%, including 8% organic growth and 4% value added acquisitions. In terms of organic growth, the company would focus on high growth emerging markets, including China, India, South East Asia and Latin America, expanding its distribution network around the world, with more than 13,000 outlets, and improving its retail channel with 2,092 stores globally. Parker Hannifin pays the highest dividend yield among the three, at 1.8%.
My Foolish take
If the $2.40 per share in cash on the balance sheet was excluded, Entegris' earnings valuation would drop to around 12. With the conservative capital structure, positive free cash flow and a huge amount of cash, Entegris seems to be a decent pick at its current price. According to Barron's, Entegris could also win from collaboration with customers, being a partner in about 25 joint-development projects. It thought the company's share price could reach $14 in a year or two, a more than 40% premium to its current trading price.

I would really appreciate it if you all would take just a couple of minutes to vote for me - it would make my day! If you have ever learned something - anything from this blog that you didn't know before or if my advice has helped you, caused you to go out and buy a new product or switch your makeup routine, how about voting Makeup Tips as the Best Australian Blog?
To vote, you will need to visit the survey, take yourself to page 3 (blogs names from L-N) and find Makeup Tips. (you can hit CTRL + F or CMD + F on your windows or Mac and search Makeup Tips) Make sure you finish the survey straight to the end or your vote won't be counted. For my international readers: don't worry even though this is an Australian competition votes from international residents are still valid.

FizzCast: Spotlight on the Class of 2011 – Rakeem Christmas
The Fizz takes a week-long look at the SU incoming basketball class.
While last year's Syracuse squad was a pleasant surprise, it was the recruiting hauls of the last two seasons anticipated by college hoops insiders across the nation. Alongside Fab Melo, Dion Waiters and C.J. Fair, the Orange was adding Rakeem Christmas, Trevor Cooney and Michael Carter-Williams. The tandem of Murphkins has sprinkled magic on the recruiting trail. The Fizz takes a week-long look at the incoming basketball class for 2011.
Listen to FizzCast with Rakeem Christmas:
Christmas is the next big man coming to play for the Orange, and The Fizz caught up with the big man from the Academy of the New Church in Pennsylvania. One of the biggest transitions that big men make when they come to Syracuse is transitioning from man-to-man to 2-3 zone (see Melo, Fabricio for more details on that). Don't worry about Christmas in that regard.
"This season we were playing the 2-3, so basically I've been getting ready [for college] for the whole season."
However, you won't see the 6'9″ forward down low in the zone. While the scouting services have him listed as a center, he sees himself as more agile on the wing, and he's been playing there all season.
"I see myself more as a power forward because I get around more and I don't like to stay there [anchored in the zone] and I get to block shots, so I could go around and get out on the wings a bit."
A spry, lengthy big to fill in for Rick Jackson after he graduates? Yes please. One of the biggest storylines The Fizz has found is the chemistry between the class of '11 recruits. It's one of the biggest reasons that Christmas is headed to the Salt City next fall.
"I chose Syracuse because I knew a lot of players going there, like Trevor and Dion, when I took a visit with Trevor, coach Murphy told me a lot of things that they have in there, if I came there, and I wanted to come there and have fun and win a 'ship with all my friends."
Christmas says that playing in the Philly area and on the AAU circuit with Waiters, Michael Carter-Williams, and Cooney laid the foundation for their relationships.
"We already have the connection, have fun and laugh around a lot, that's one of the main reason's we're so close."
The big man is just a season away from being on campus with all his friends. Here's hoping next year's Christmas ends with a 'ship.

wow a fizz article about basketball?!
kidding, good article i like i like
Enough of basketball. Its getting boring. JB and the media having at it. Its a zoo. We need football back soon. College basketball is way to long!!
Don't worry guys, we have plenty of staffers to cover everything. Spring practice is right around the corner, so we'll be knee deep in that, but in the meantime, we have all the coverage on Syracuse hoops' class of 2011.

There are three distinct schools of car builders. The first is the 'scratch-built' crew, guys who fabricate a vehicle from the ground up. If someone can't find what he needs, he'll simply build it. He follows a blueprint hardwired to his brain. He thinks most cars have too much stuff on them, certainly more than he's going to put on his ride anyway.
At the opposite end are the OEM purists. They figure if it left the factory that way, it's already perfect. Typically, they go for OEM aftermarket bits as well: wheels, bike racks, floormats... if it's from the same manufacturer, it's good enough for their car.
The last group is the 'OEMPlus' contingent. These guys rely on factory bits and choice aftermarket suppliers to modify their cars. They tend to follow the factory's design, occasionally taking it a few degrees further. OEMPlus guys are well versed in parts code terminology and know a part number is more accurate than a verbal description. They know which chassis has interchangeable parts and where said parts were made and assembled. They know it's often more efficient to go straight to the OEM supplier, sometimes cheaper too.
Different Cars, Same ApproachThe three cars here are examples of OEMPlus. While none is particularly outrageous, each has a little extra oomph to differentiate itself. The owners have respected the factory design while adding a few ideas of their own. We like that.

Perseverance pays for Hoomanawanui
Perseverance pays for Hoomanawanui
FOXBORO — When his son, Michael, signed with the Patriots just prior to the season opener, Isy Hoomanawanui heard all the questions.
Why sign with a team that already had Rob Gronkowski, Aaron Hernandez, Daniel Fells and Visanthe Shiancoe on the roster? But Hoomanawanui, as he's done all along, preached patience to his son.
"I stress that a lot," the elder Hoomanawanui said. "I say, 'Patience. It will come. It will come.'"

hard to believe
but I have a

daughter and
that's the way I
want her to be
treated. What
better example
would there
be then to see her dad
treating a lady right. This
what makes me unique and a
great catch for the right lady.
I play no games and don't
want my lady to play any

"A real good friend may miss to wish "Happy B'Day" or even "Happy Friendship Day", and can forget to attend bashes, functions, social gatherings and 'do', but stand rock-solid in the time of one's need for support to worthy points,corrects him in the event of committed mistakes and not forget to withdraw or reprimand for doing something that good conscience not permits."
"A real man knows when to tell a woman that she's sexy...and when to tell her that she's beautiful. Yes...there's a difference."
"i rather be love then hated alive then hated while dead -shout out to Nerrymiah Scipio i made a mistake and reported one of your Quotes #so sorry i put that on twitter to like im so sorry at least i can atmet to my mistakes unlike other people \so you say you the badest"
"Everything is real. This means that all the movies and books you have ever read or seen along with everything you or anyone else has imagined is all real. Zombies, demons, hellraiser, hellboy, and killer machines are all real, they just haven't happened yet. So we better start working on all the good stuff like super-powered humans, iron man, the avengers, and interstellar travel before time catches up with reality and we lose our chance for this universal cycle."

How to Manage Mommy Mean Girls
Here are six simple ways.
Recently, "GMA" ran a segment called "When Mean Girls Become Mean Moms," featuring momlogic contributor Dr. Janet Taylor. We've dealt with our fair share of evil mommies, so we were all ears:
Here are some tips from Dr. Michelle Golland on managing Mommy Mean Girls:
1. If they gossip about someone in front of you, just remember that as soon as you walk away, you're next. Avoid that kind of person at all costs, or at least keep your guard up.
2. Ask what they were like in high school. If they talk about how they ruled the school or how "lame" the other students were, watch for the replay of that behavior. Once a mean girl, always a mean girl!
3. Try to widen your family's social circle and meet other moms you better connect with.
4. If you find yourself being "left out" and feeling bad about it, reflect on your own high school experience. Is this opening up some old wounds? Process some of those feelings with your spouse or a good girlfriend. Dealing with the past can help you move forward.
5. Indifference is your biggest weapon. Try not to care so much about what the mean moms think. They are so insecure, they want you to care. When you don't, you take away their power.
6. Always have integrity, grace and dignity. Never forget you are your child's role model for how to handle friends and bullies.
How do you deal with Mommy Mean Girls?

"Flaring of natural gas from wells is on the upswing in Texas and North Dakota as oil and gas producers rush to develop new shale plays," boosting global warming and other air pollution. Because natural gas is currently much cheaper than oil, the "number of rigs drilling for oil in North America has almost doubled from a year ago to 1,021," and gas flaring permits issued by Texas and North Dakota have surged.

Nike Flyknit Roshe Run "Neo Turquoise"
July 28th, 2014 by John Kim | 4 comments
The Nike Roshe Run started off as a bare-boned, no-frills package of mesh and foam that would appeal to consumers looking for a lower-priced Nike sneaker. What happened after the initial run of $70 Roshes was nothing short of a phenomenon, as an entire Roshe-cored category run by Dylan Raasch is now one of the key pushes for all of Nike Sportswear. We are beginning to see the Roshe get beefed up with Nike's innovative bits, with Hyperfuse, Natural Motion, and other upgrades being implemented on the base-model shoe. But Flyknit takes it to another level, with a Magista-like weave and some intense colorways like this Neo Turquoise rendition drawing a ton of attention from NSW fanatics around the globe. These are now available at retailers overseas like UK's Size?, so get a detailed look below and stay tuned for availability at U.S. retailers.

Officers dispatched to the area of Courtland Circle Wednesday night for reports of neighbors in a dispute ended up arresting one and writing a summons to the other, police said Thursday afternoon.
When officers arrived at the scene, one of the women outside with a group of neighbors who had gathered to observe the unfolding scene reportedly walked towards officers with her hands out to them in a manner suggesting she should be cuffed, saying, "Just take me, just take me," police said.
Police identified that person as Victoria L. Mason, 38, of Courtland Ave. As they investigated the incidents, several neighbors reported to police that Mason at soe point was carrying a weapon, but a cellphone video of the incident would later show she at no point was in possession of any type of weapon, police said.
Officers did say Mason appeared to be acting strangely and in an overly animated manner. The incident was occurring on the front lawn of the neighbors shared lawn and the yelling was reportedly taking place in front of the children of Mariana Quinteros-Palencia, 26, of the same address but a different apartment on the property.
Mason was arrested and charged with risk of injury to a child and second-degree breach of peace (threatening.)
Quinteros-Palencia was arrested and released on a summons.
Other Arrests
Christopher A. Bautista, 24, of Lafayette St., was charged Wednesday afternoon with disorderly conduct and interfering with an officer/resisting.
Anthony Debartolomeo, 52, of Crane Rd., was charged Wednesday evening with assault on an ER personnel and disorderly conduct.
Michee Felius, 21, of Minor Pl., was charged Thursday morning with failure to appear.
Hector A. Flores, 22, of Frederick St., was charged Wednesday afternoon with failure to appear.
Steven A. Jones, 32, of Duffy St., was charged Wednesday morning with three counts of violation of probation.
Laura A. Slinsky, 32, of Linden Pl., was charged early Thursday morning with violation of protective order.

In a report issued by the District's chief financial officer, the Department of Corrections said that in the 2010 fiscal year, it released up to 15 inmates per month during a nine-hour window beginning at 10 p.m.
But during the first five months of the 2012 fiscal year, that number fell sharply, with the jail releasing a total of five inmates during that period.
The decline began not long after at-large D.C. Councilman Phil Mendelson introduced a measure that would impose strict requirements about how quickly and when the Department of Corrections must release inmates.
Under the proposal, jailers would be required to free inmates within five hours of a court ordering them released or by noon of their scheduled release date. The measure would also fine the Department of Corrections $1,000 every time it released a prisoner between 10 p.m. and 7 a.m.
"If an inmate is in jail because he or she is completing a sentence -- typically a misdemeanor sentence -- everybody knows when the inmate goes in when they are going to be released," Mendelson said. "For them not to be able to release that person before 10 p.m. on the release date is, in my view, inexcusable."
Phil Fornaci, the director of the D.C. Prisoners' Project, said jail officials have blamed complex procedures for delays.
"The logistical issue is the main thing: getting people from the courthouse to the jail, checking their records and then releasing them on time. One would not think that would take very long," Fornaci said.
Francis Campbell, a Ward 6 advisory neighborhood commissioner, said a measure to further reduce the number of overnight releases was comforting, but he also said the statistics that showed any inmates were being released overnight were a surprise.
"We were all under the impression that no prisoners were being released at that time," Campbell said. "As minimal as it is, it is still an issue."
The Department of Corrections didn't respond to repeated requests for comment.

The Texas Juvenile Justice Department has a vision of providing safety for citizens of the State of Texas through partnership with communities and the delivery of a continuum of services and programs to help youth enrich and value their lives and the community by focusing on accountability of their actions and planning for a successful future.
The mission of the Texas Juvenile Justice Department is to create a safer Texas through the establishment of a continuum of services that promotes positive youth outcomes through:
The Texas Juvenile Justice Department strives to set an example of excellence in public service within limited resources, providing quality services with innovation, vision, collaboration with partners and stakeholders, and accountability for agency impacts.
Pursuant to SB 653, the Texas Juvenile Justice Department was created with the following public purpose:
Creating a unified state juvenile justice agency that works in partnership with local county
governments, the courts, and communities to promote public safety by providing a full continuum of
effective supports and services to youth from initial contact through termination of supervision; and
Creating a juvenile justice system that produces positive outcomes for youth, families, and
communities by:
* assuring accountability, quality, consistency, and transparency through effective
monitoring and the use of system wide performance measures;
* promoting the use of program and service designs and interventions proven to be most effective
in rehabilitating youth;
* prioritizing the use of community-based or family-based programs and services for youth over
the placement or commitment of youth to a secure facility;

Support the development of a consistent county-based continuum of effective interventions,
supports, and services for youth and families that reduce the need for out-of-home placement;
Increase reliance on alternatives to placement and commitment to secure state facilities,
consistent with adequately addressing a youthful offender's treatment needs and protection of the public;
Locate the facilities as geographically close as possible to necessary workforce and other
services while supporting the youths' connection to their families;
Encourage regional cooperation that enhances county collaboration;
Enhance the continuity of care throughout the juvenile justice system; and
Use secure facilities of a size that supports effective youth rehabilitation and public safety.

3 Great Uses For Old Routers
Just like most people, you've probably got a few old routers lying around. It's true that unlike computers, phones, and tablets, routers are somewhat of a less obvious upgrade choice, but if you want to improve the reception of your home network, it's best to have a good one on hand.
The new standard for wireless routers is Wireless N. This standard promises a faster connection with your wireless devices, faster transfers, and streaming speeds between devices. This means that if you're going to update your router, you'll be stuck with more old tech accumulating dust. However, there are lots of things that you can do with old routers.
1. Turning Your Old Router Into a Wireless Repeater
It's true that WiFi reception isn't always very good in every single part of your home. This all depends on the size of your home. One great thing that you can do is turn your old router into a wireless repeater. Repeaters are used to strengthen the signal of your home network, ensuring that everyone in your family can access the Internet over the WiFi network. This guide will tell you how to do this.
2. Turning Your Old Router Into A Wireless Bridge
Another good use of an old router is turning it into a wireless bridge. This allows you to connect one network to another over WiFi, rather than having to run a wire from one room to another. This is perfect if you want to install a new desktop computer and for some reason, you can't connect it with wires to your network. Maybe there's not network jack or phone jack. Before buying a network adapter card, you can try and turn your old router into a wireless bridge. In essence, your old router will connect to your main router, bridging the WiFi gap, allowing you to go online. You need to use DD-WRT upgraded firmware. Also check if your router supports DD-WRT here. This guide will tell you how to proceed.
3. Turn Your Old Router Into A Hub/Switch
Lastly, if for some reason you are running out of LAN ports on your main router, you can turn your old router into a hub/switch. This can happen if you have many devices and computers plugged into your router, from video game consoles to phones. The process is quite simple. Hook the old router into one of the LAN ports of your main router. Then, turn off the DHCP and you're ready to go. This allows you to use your old router as a 3-port switch.

I have a question! If you are throwing the DD-WRT Concept at them in #2, why not incorporate it into all of them? #1 would benefit from DD-WRT (Or OpenWRT, Tomato) in that it could act as a wireless bridge and repeater at the same time. #3 would benefit in that you could switch the WAN port to the LAN VLAN, and get all 4 switch ports as just that! Plus, having and opensource firmware unlocks loads of additional functionality, and it is so common and easy to hack these routers these days.
Happy hacking friends!
Personally living in this time period people should know some basic networking. Technology is our life. Either know it, or be left behind.
It is really a good idea to use these old routers! I still have a old router and I will try this:)

The party also honored Bob Kolb of Food Basket IGA for supporting that effort for 60 years. Kolb, however, was unable to attend due to an illness in his family.
"Sally's slaves," as her volunteers cheerfully call themselves, turned their slave driver into "Queen for a Day," giving her a throne to sit on and showering her with gifts, including a stuffed elephant to add to her collection, which, according Montoya, brought her collection to 865 elephants.
Other gifts were a one-of-a-kind calendar produced by PHS student Adam Spencer honoring "Sally's Shoe Boutique," with photos of shoes taken from a massive pile of footwear collected for the Christmas Basket program, and a booklet, "Sally the Slave Driver," a tongue-in-cheek history of Sally's work written and illustrated by Neva Slaght, Montoya's longtime assistant.
Under Montoya's leadership, the annual Christmas Basket program provides boxes of food and toys to families during the Christmas holidays. The day after the baskets are distributed, Montoya and her volunteers open and operate a "department store" at the Park County Fairgrounds, where donated clothes and household goods are available at no charge.
Montoya was one of the organizers of the Christmas Basket Program when it began 60 years ago, and later organized the Powell Council of Community Services, which now oversees the program.
Preparing for the Christmas effort is a yearlong undertaking. According to her volunteers, Montoya spends countless hours sorting and organizing donated items, which come from many sources and may come in at any time. Clothes, toys, furniture and used appliances fill storage sites all over Powell, including Montoya's own garage and a storage unit she pays for out of her own pocket.
Montoya may learn of a family in need of a bed or a washing machine at any time of the year. When she does, she calls on her volunteer slaves for help with locating and delivering the item.
Ruth Carroll, who calls herself "a longtime slave," said Montoya has been a blessing to the Powell community.
"Sally is so amazing with what she's done for this town," Carroll said. "She asks nothing for herself, just for people who need help."
Slaght said she has been preparing to take Montoya's place for several years, but it doesn't appear that Montoya is ready to slow down yet. Asked if she was retiring, Montoya answered without hesitation.
"I'm not retiring," she said shaking her head.
Her slaves aren't ready to quit yet either, according to Slaght."If she can keep going, I can keep going," Slaght said.

In a Perfect Tech World
In a perfect world we would not go without something like unrestricted Wi-Fi, our batteries will always be full when we need them to be, the wrinkled dollar bill will always be accepted by the vending machine, and no one would ever know what a paper jam was.
A series of simple illustrations that point out what a perfect world would be like without certain everyday disruptions. This is an on-going project that I started in order to "celebrate" our everyday nuisances. It can also be seen as a means of discovering things that a lot of different people can relate to and think, "Yes! I hate it when that happens!" These illustrations are not meant to be taken seriously. It's all just for fun.
Catrina Dulay's illustrations speak to us on a direct level. Unfortunately, we don't live in this perfect world, but it's nice to dream. Here is a selection of the tech-related illustrations that appeal to us.

I love these except the one about texts always being answered immediately. My favorite thing about texts is that I can answer them on my schedule. If you need something immediately, call.
Loved living in Cambridge, Mass b/c of the free wifi provided by the city...didn't even pay for service in my apt. It was glorious!!!
@kts911 To each their own! :)
It perplexes me enormously that too many people think it is ok to "steal" wireless internet connectivity. Who gives a rip what fiber costs---let the other guy pay for it. What else is it OK to steal? Electricity, apparently. Anything else? Oh darn. The candy machine isn't free. Imagine that.

Servings: 12 dozen cookies
Cook Time: 18 min
Difficulty: Moderate
1 1/2 cups sesame seeds
1 (1-pound) box light brown sugar (2 1/2 cups, packed)
1 1/2 cups (3 sticks) butter, at room temperature
2 large eggs
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
If you're using raw sesame seeds, place the seeds in a single layer on a baking sheet. Place in the oven for about 3 minutes, watching carefully. They should just begin to brown lightly. Set aside to cool completely.
Lower the oven temperature to 300 degrees F. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper.
Using an electric mixer, cream the sugar, butter and eggs until very light, about 5 minutes. Sift the flour, baking powder, and salt. Add to the butter mixture and stir with the spatula until combined. Add the vanilla. Stir in the cooled sesame seeds. Drop the batter by 1/2 teaspoonfuls onto the prepared cookie sheets, 1 inch apart. It takes just a dab of batter to produce quarter-sized cookies. They will spread into perfect circles during baking.
Bake until very brown but not burned at the edges, about 14 to 15 minutes. Important: Let the cookies cool completely on the parchment paper, then peel them away from the paper. Store between layers of waxed paper in an airtight container. These cookies freeze well in tins. They will crumble in a plastic freezer bag.

It's so funny, my husband just came back from the Smokey Mountains with a bag of these wonderful little bits. I gobbled them down. yum, yum,yummy. Planted the sesame seed in my brain to look for the recipe and never did. And thank goodness i am on this mailing list cause here they are. I know they will be great as i have never made a Paula recipe i did not like!! I will whip me up a batch this weekend! thank you Paula, Love you gal!! ellen J>

I tried these and they were awesome!!! My kids LOVED them they're 6 and 8. Some how mine weren't as crispy as the ones in the picture look. I guess I used too much dough in my cookies. But they were some of the best cookies Ive ever made.

My friends and family love these little cookies. They are addictive!
By Anonymous on November 11, 2009
I made these at Christmas and they were a tremendous hit. Either I made them too small or they make many more than the recipe indicated. It made 11 dozen. All were greedily consumed by friends and family. I just bought more sesame (benne) seeds to make them again. Worth the effort of filling all those cookie sheets.

obtained pension sharing orders, where they receive a proportion of
their partner's pension pot.
Although this figure is an increase from 6% between December
2000 and December 2006, stockbroker Killik & Co said there was
still a long way to go and warned that in the meantime a "pensions
underclass" among women was being created.

Sorry Ms. Squad Leader, but I'm not becoming someone's lab rat as easily as Jaeger. If I'm ever getting out of this thing it's certainly not to hang out with the likes of the Survey Corps., and should you try to capture me again, you know I won't go down without a fight. Nice try, though.
ahhh yes go ask her things!!
