Emmy Award-Winner Bob Henry
Bob Henry died March 18 at his Laguna Beach home after a long illness. He was 92.
He will be remembered outside of Laguna as the innovative producer and director of variety shows and series.
Present at the birth of the television variety show, Bob put his stamp on the genre for the next half century.
Bob was the associate producer in New York of the Colgate Comedy Hour starring Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis in 1950. When Martin and Lewis decamped from the East Coast, Henry also moved to Los Angeles as a staff employee of NBC.
He broke new ground in television, helping African-American performers reach a broader audience.
In 1957 Bob produced, directed and wrote "The Nat King Cole Show," the first network show ever to star a black male performer. The show was so controversial that it ran without national commercials and several NBC affiliates refused to air it.
Flip Wilson was a standup comic when Bob directed a special starring him, a year before the series that made Wilson a household name.
Bob received both an Emmy and a Peabody Award for the "Flip Wilson Show."
During his 50-plus years in television, Bob produced and/or directed more than 25 different variety series and specials including "The Andy Williams Show" "The Emmy Awards," "The Grammy Awards," "The Captain and Tennille" series, "The Perry Como Show," "200 years of Comedy with Jonathan Winters," and a Bob Hope special. He also produced and directed "The American Black Achievement Awards" numerous times.
However, in town, the long-time resident was highly regarded for his involvement in community activities.
Bob served as Festival of Arts President in 2004. He was a member of the board for six years.
He was an ardent gardener and served as president of the Laguna Beach Garden Club for two years. He and his wife, Annette Henry, were honored as Gardeners of the Year by the Orange County District of the California Garden Clubs Inc.
Bob was also actively involved in promoting the building of a new senior citizen center in Laguna Beach.
He also appeared with the Laguna Beach Concert Band in its infancy, gave talks at the Assistance League and for the Friends of the Laguna Beach Library, of which he and his wife were members.
"He loved Laguna," said Annette Henry, Bob's wife of 30 years. "For years his license plate was, 'I (heart) Lguna.'"

Firm-level return dispersion and correlation asymmetry: challenges for portfolio diversification
AbstractThe main purpose of this article is to study whether firm-level return dispersions might have any significance in explaining asymmetric return correlations observed in equity market returns. Correlation asymmetry, in particular increased return correlations conditional on downside moves, implies that portfolio diversification will not be as successful during bear markets - periods during which portfolio diversification will be most needed. Similarly, low firm-level return dispersion imply that stocks within the portfolio behave the same way, making diversification harder. It is found that asymmetric correlations are associated with asymmetric firm-level return dispersions. The results indicate that portfolio managers need to not only take into account the asymmetry in return correlations but also be aware of how firm-level return dispersions behave during such periods when they need diversification most.

These were a little blah. I spruced them up by adding shredded cabbage and a black bean/corn relish. (1 can black beans, 1 can corn, diced red onion, cilantro, olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt and pepper to taste) It gave them some flavor.

Parent-Child Book Club
Published on Thursday, November 21, 2013 - 2:42pm
For November, the Parent-Child Book Club read Mr. Popper's Penguins by Richard Atwater. It was very well liked by the children.
While discussing the book, and how Mr. Popper believed that travel broadened the mind, two readers informed me that they had traveled outside of the country. One reader thought it would be fun to have a couple penguins, another wasn't so sure. Everyone enjoyed the Reader's Theater.
We were not successful in passing a penguin egg (i.e. tennis ball) or a stuffed penguin chick on our feet.
However, we did get pictures of our penguin fans.
Next month we are reading Escape From Mr. Lemoncello's Library by Chris Grabenstein.
We'll meet Thursday, Dec. 5 at 7 p.m. Books are available at the Children's Desk.

Build my own book templatesI see that the current version does not support building your own templates and the usual solution is to use a 3rd party design package and then import a JPG. I like the standard blurb templates and only need to make minor changes to get what I want.
As a software developer I can see that the Blurb books are stored in XML format which allows me to see all the templates and how they work. So I expect it should not be much trouble for me to add my own templates to the system. My only concern is when I send in my book to be published is if the Blurb printer software going to complain when it sees my templates.
Anybody managed to add their own templates to the system?

i want to be able to edit / create my own templates with a drag and drop concept (instead of code).
There shouldn't be a problem … the BookSmart "book" is converted to PDF before uploading I understand, (given the open source components they used to build BookSmart it'd be most likely) so there would be no "verification" of the template XML after uploading as it no longer exists… the RIP at the printer would just use the PDF's postscript ….
If blurb does convert the book into a PDF on my computer before sending it off, there should be no problem with making my own templates. So I will try to build a small test book and get it printed to see if it works. Let you know how it goes. Thanks

I think you should try making new page templates first off …. it pretty easy … making a whole book might be a bit more tricky … and you'd have to conform to Blurbs standard book sizes ….
No worries, it seems to work OK. I can modify existing templates as well as create new ones. I can add them to the menus and they appear in the selection of templates. You have to get it 100% correct or you will crash BookSmart, but it does give you a good error dump to show where the problem is if you stuff it up.
They display correctly in the Edit Book mode as well as the Preview Book mode. I have published the new templates and they downloaded to blurb OK. But I have not printed the book, so will not know if they really work until I try that. I will work out exactly what templates I want to create before I try that one.

Is there a way to share your templetes w/ others? That would be very cool to have some additional templetes to choose from! I like the templetes for the most part but having a few specific ones would be nice.
I'm thinking like having a full bleed image and then having an image or 2 over top in a box.
Thanks for considering …
You guys probably know this already, but I thought I'd throw it out there. According to our EULA Blurb cannot support editing of book files through anything other than the BookSmart client. While some manual editing of the XML files may work correctly, it is more likely that doing so will result in your book being corrupted or not printed correctly. So, bottom line, we just don't support tweaked book files.
– Kathy
Hi Kathy,
First I find your software and service is excellent and I want to continue to use this great product. When I started to create a book I had a look at about 8 websites that offer this service. Most had fixed templates but some allowed total free format. I felt that the total free format ones were not as good as yours and I knew they would be a lot of work to make them look as good as Blurb. I also noticed that the BookSmart software was based on XML, so I could most likely create my own templates. That nailed the decision to go with your service.
I also realise that you can not be held responsible if I make changes to my templates including a corrupted book printout, corrupted data file, etc. It is totally my own fault and I don't expect to get any help when I have been playing around with the system. I also realise that when you release a new version of BookSmart it will overwrite my new templates and I will have to add them again.
I also assume that you don't really mind me playing around with the templates, as you still get to print my books. It's a bit similar to doing the design work in inDesign and then importing a JPG or PDF. But if you have a major issue with it, then I won't proceed with my changes.
Hopefully in the future you will add new templates so I won't have to make these changes. A fully visual template builder would be excellent and I hope it is on your development schedule. In the mean time a few new templates would be of great help.
For example I am building a 13×11 book and I like the 12 picture (4×3) square layout. There is a lot of white space at the bottom of this template that would be perfect for a text box to describe the photos. So I have added a text box in my version of this template. Hopefully you will modify this template for a future version, so everyone can enjoy it.

Hi Scott
The design of BookSmart does not allow easy sharing of templates. Only way I could do it would be to modify your BOOK file if you have started the book or send you a new template file, which would be overwritten when you upgrade to version 1.9. A full bleed with images over the top is on my todo list. If blurb is not too worried about this type of thing then I could do something for you.

Would you be willing to share what you've discovered about the templates? I've started poking around in the xml files a bit, and while they seem to be fairly simple, there also seems to be a few things I'm missing, like mapping some of the Ids to human-readable names.
At the very least I'd like to be able to just tweak some of the templates a little bit to set my own default fonts, etc. If a few people start sharing info, we can probably figure it all out much faster (plus maybe Blurb will get the idea that we'd like to be able to tweak templates and add it to the program).

Hi Colin,
I won't publish anything in the form as its likely that someone inexperienced using such information could corrupt their entire book. Send me an email and will see what I can do Martin320 at gmail com

If you have a good image editor, like Photoshop, or Photoshop Elements, you can make a full bleed page sized file & put your pics & text exactly where you want them.
I did most of my 11X13" book that way. Some views at www.FrankCizek.com
Hi, I'm new and not very smart regarding stuff like this. So my questions may be very remedial. Is it possible to make some of your pages in Photoshop and then import them into BookSmart without re-writing code? I bite my nails just downloading the free software…re-writing code could quite possibly give me a heartattack. I just wanted to make my own background…with orchids that matched my wedding theme…but make the rest in Booksmart. I like the way you can view the book in progress at the bottom of the Booksmart page. But I'm not sure if I can combine the two. I've already started making all my pages in Photoshop but it would be easier if I could just add a couple of personal designs plus the background "template" and do most of it in Booksmart. Plus, I too am worried about how it will look printed if I do the whole book outside of Booksmart. Thanks for any advise.
Yes you can design and prepare the pages outside of BookSmart and import them. If you go to Search The FAQs (if you are not sure how to find that look at the right hand side of this window, near the top, and you'll see that under the Help heading) There you will see, 4th from the top, one called Can I Impoert My Own Designs INto BookSmart? No need to write any code, you can just use Photoshop.
With Photoshop you create each page separately then import them, so it is easy to mix amd match with pages created in BookSmart and pages created in Photoshop.
What you can't currently do is create your own templates, or create your own backgrounds for use in a BookSmart template. For a particular page you either do it all in BookSMart or all in Photoshop.
If you follow the instructions in the FAQ above, especially with regard to the page size and resolution(dpi), your book will look amazing! Even if I say so myself, the trial book I did looked amazing :-)
If you have any doubts, when you've done the first 20 pages upload the book and publish that. Without spending too much money you'll see how the book is turning out, you'll see if there are any general adjustments you need to make to colour, brightness or contrast and it will give your confidence a boost. There is no need to do that though, most people are more than happy at the way their books turn out.
You'll find a FAQ on most things you want to do. Have a read of those and also use the Search option on the forums, chances are that somebody has already asked your question and an answer will already be sitting there for you.

Has anyone printed a book with custom templates successfully?
It sounds like it would work fine. Especially if the PDF format is true, which is very likely. Having the print-ready book in PDF format means they can use various industry standard print method, and even outsource to a different backend vendor as necessary.
While it is relatively simple for a programming-orieted person to add custom templates, there are a number of things to be watched for, and as MartinRobert said, Blurb would constantly overwrite your templates with each revision. Not to mention crash Blurb when you make mistakes. Sharing them isn't very feasible, again except for the more technically oriented. You never know when two sources are going to produce conflicting IDs.
I would like Blurb to consider putting their user community to work for them. A submission process of templates, complete with alternates would be interesting. Blurb could publish them only after some basic graphic review. Havingdrag and drop templates to repeat and re-use a design is preferable to designing them in Photoshop for me. Especially since you often repeat a format multiple times in a book.
Thank you Tony, we did as you suggested and it worked great. Just a note for first timers. When we created our page in Photoshop we put it on a transparent background that way when we added it to Booksmart we were able to use the same background color we were using for the rest of the Booksmart pages. The page will appear to be greyish in the edit view but if you view it in preview it looks correct. We also have chosen to do a smaller test book. That way we can work out the questionable font sizes, matching colors, photo quality, hand drawn art pieces, etc that we'd like to add to our bigger book. That was a great suggestion…again, thanks.

After a second Super Bowl loss in five years, it looked like Bill Belichick was going all-in when he started stockpiling free agents in the offseason: Jonathan Fanene, Bobby Carpenter, Donte' Stallworth, Jabar Gaffney, Steve Gregory, Daniel Fells, Brandon Lloyd – more than a dozen players in all. But only three remain, with some of the biggest names gone. Instead of veteran free agents, Belichick is going young, and on defense, very young, as in the youngest defense of his tenure in New England. Can these fresh faces get the Patriots back to the Super Bowl?

Despite technical advances using MR and the emergence of PET imaging, CT continues to be a frequently used imaging modality that has not stood still while others have thrived. Advances in CT have continued apace with other modalities which have taken CT into new areas of imaging that just a few short years ago it could not approach. With the advent of 64-slice CT, a greater number of images can be taken in a much quicker period of time. The use of CT perfusion in the brain and abdomen are reviewed in this issue. Cutting edge techniques such as 4D CT and dual energy CT will be discussed, as well as CT applications for imaging of the coronary arteries and cardiac valves.

Ive never used an HDMI matrix before and wondered if anyone here had?
I'm looking to share an AV amp with 4 HDMI inputs (inc 1 cable box) and another 2 separate HDMI inputs( inc a second cable box)
I want to be able to show the two cables boxes independently on both tvs and the other inputs but also simultaneously if needed eg party or whatever.
The only caveat is that the 2nd tv's audio will be the tv speakers and the main tv will be the speakers from the A/V amp which will run in multi zone into a 3rd area for audio only.
The real goal is to have no av gear in view for 3 rooms but still function as before using ir extenders and or rf remotes.

With phones doing more and more for us, getting the battery to last all day is becoming an increasing challenge. With the Mophie Juice Pack Air for iPhone 4/4S you can virtually double the battery life of your smartphone.
The Juice Pack Air is incredibly slim, just 14.5mm longer and 8mm thicker than the iPhone 4 or 4S. This means your phone will still be easy to hold and use with one hand, whilst giving you added protection and more endurance. Not only that, but this new design from Mophie has a soft-touch finish on the back, giving you more grip and a metallic outer band which emulates Apple's original design for the phone.
The 1,500 mAh battery can virtually double your iPhone 4 or iPhone 4S's battery life. That means up to 12 hours of talk time, 5 hours of internet use, 36 hours of audio playback or 9 hours of video.
There's also a handy standby switch so you can switch from case to iPhone battery as and when you want so you can maximise its use. And when it comes time to charge, the USB charger lets you fill up both the case and iPhone 4/4S simultaneously and even sync with iTunes, without having to remove the case.
Unlike the speakers on the iPhone which face downwards, Mophie have cleverly designed the Juice Pack Air so that the ports face towards you, improving the sound!
The Mophie Juice Pack Air is designed specifically for the iPhone 4 and 4S and gives you access to all buttons and ports.
