text: Female Lawyers In Massachusetts: They're All Beautiful, Says One By: admin April 18, 2005 To the Editor: In David Yas' Jan. 24 Exhibit Y column, "Kelley's Latest: Boston, Barristers, Bizarro," your number one gripe is that all the actresses on legal shows are beautiful. Can you really have meant to imply that not all female lawyers in the Boston legal community are beautiful? I don't think you meant that, did you? ...

I didn't think a Google + commercial could make me cry, but this one did. Check out how technology is bringing marriage equality to France. (via Jezebel)
Crazy. Talk about innovative uses of technology!
Windows 8.1 preview: many small tweaks make for a significant update
We've seen hints thanks to some leaks, but there are a whole host of additions and improvements that make some fundamental changes to Windows 8. The Start button makes its rumored return, as Microsoft has responded to clear feedback. Is it enough? Are things moving quickly over in Redmond? Let's find out.
As the country rejoices over the latest marriage equality victory, this one in Minnesota, it's worth reflecting once more on how laws like this affect real families. This Autostraddle piece about marriage equality in Minnesota has been making the rounds online in the last few days, and with good reason.
Forgive the long excerpt, but hopefully you'll agree that it's worthwhile:
I was there with my two children and friends and their children. Luisa was out of the country and could not be with us and I missed her so much when it was announced that the bill had passed. I would have loved to have grabbed her and kissed her because 20 years is a very long time to live as a couple "not quite equal" to others. Instead, I was with my son who wrapped his arms around me, looked up into my face and said, "It passed! We won!"
I was already in tears.
Happy, sad or angry – my son cannot stand to see me cry. As we held onto each other in that sea of people, he just kept looking at me and saying, "You're going to get married, mama. You're going to get married." I nodded and laughed as I continued to cry, "Yeah, I'm going to get married." Then, he held my hands and said, "Promise me you'll get married as soon as you can, before they can take it away."
And that is the reality of the world in which he has lived – that rights are bestowed by higher powers but can just as easily be taken back.
I looked around me… at the woman in her fifties standing alone smiling and crying, at the elderly couple holding hands who could not stop sobbing, at the couple who had a sign proclaiming their 25 years together and then to all the very young activists who shed no tears, only laughed and cheered.
For those of us who are older, legal recognition of our relationships seemed unfathomable for most of our lives. For those young activists who were all smiles, it has always seemed inevitable. There is no doubt that this was a political victory but, for many of us, it was so much more personal than that.
No words.
"SimCity 4 was literally prototyped in Excel. There were no graphics—it was just a bunch of numbers—but you could type a code that represented a particular type of building and the formulae built into the spreadsheet would then decide how much power it had and how many people would work there. It just statically calculated the city as if it were a bunch of snapshots."

Soylent strives to be the food of the future - a meal in a glass.
Klint Finley
Fake meats have been around for years, but a new crop of Bay Area startups backed by tech investors think they can make meat substitutes good enough to compete with the real deal. Beyond Meat — backed by Twitter founders Evan Williams and Biz Stone via their company Obvious Corp — created an eerily accurate chicken substitute, for example.
But the most ambitious project is Rob Rhinehart's cheekily named "Soylent," an attempt to replace food entirely with a liquid shake that has all the protein, fat, carbohydrates and micronutrients you need. The only ingredients recognizable as food are salt and olive oil. He claims to have lived exclusively on the stuff for a month. He says he has started eating real food again, but two months later he still gets 92 percent of his meals from Soylent.
Rhinehart makes an unlikely food scientist. He's an engineer fresh off a stint at a Y Combinator-backed networking startup called Level RF that never exited stealth mode. He says he doesn't have a background in chemistry. "Formally no more than an undergraduate level, but I am a huge proponent of self-study, online courses, and textbooks," he says.

The 2014 race for Nebraska's soon to be vacant U.S. Senate seat, has drawn a big pool of Republican candidates, Shane Osborn is one of them.
Chris Schukei talked with the candidate on News 5 at 11:30. Here's what he said when asked about the GOP candidates seeming to push further and further to the right.
"I've got support across the spectrum and that's just because I think people know I'm going to tell you what I'm going to do and I'm going to do it and get it accomplished. I like to get things done. I think talk is cheap and so when I look at this...my endorsements...I'm looking for instate endorsements. We've had several come out from several state senators, but I plan to represent all Nebraskans. I think we are all pretty fiscally well minded here in this state and that's the focus that's the threat to our country is the seventeen trillion dollars in debt and the fifty trillion plus in unfunded liabilities."
Osborn is running against Ben Sasse, Sid Dinsdale and Bart McCleay.

"The 2003 Pinot Noir Reserve is the product of an exceptionally challenging hot vintage in which successes were the exception. Somehow The Eyrie Vineyards was able to produce a wine of elegance and grace. The wine was aged entirely in seasoned oak. Light to medium ruby in color, it has an enticing perfume of cherry and raspberry, a silky smooth texture, concentrated flavors, and a lengthy finish. It may lack the depth and richness of a great year but it is a superb effort in the 2003 vintage."-Wine Advocate
"Unlike many new world Pinots that are over-extracted and heavy, [Eyrie 2003 Reserve Pinot noir] is a lesson in finesse and delicacy with a lithe texture and flavors of herbs, minerals, hibiscus and tart red fruit." Food & Wine: Wine Guide '08.
The Eyrie Vineyards (eye-ree) was established by David and Diana Lett in 1966. Yamhill County's pioneer vineyard produced the Willamette Valley's first Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, and the first Pinot Gris in America. The vineyards are located in the Dundee Hills, the winery in nearby McMinnville.
Named for the river that runs through the valley from Portland to Eugene, Willamette Valley is home to some of the best Pinot Noir vineyards in the Northwest. While along the same north/south line as Seattle, the Willamette Valley is protected from Pacific rains by the Coast Range on the western border and the Cascade Ranges to the east.

RE: the West Ham/Chelsea thing, this is a huge topic, but for me generally speaking we muddy the issue of anti-Semitism at Spurs by singing the Yid thing. I get why we do it and I can see both sides, but it does make the line between what is and isn't ok somewhat blurred.
As for the hissing thing, it's an easy one to get away with as they can always claim they were "shushing" (as in it's so quiet), which they've claimed before.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
What a disappointment! The faculty at CMHS is simply put unengaged and don't care. Poor communication, lack of accountability, poor teacher guidance and its all okay with them. The root....they just don't care. I went to this school as a kid, played sports, and had decent grades. Unfortunately the quality of the personel is ineffective in motivating, mentoring, and like many reviews have said....doing their job. The superintendent, Dr. Cooper, sets the example. I've been waiting for his call since September. Don't send your kids here...Unless you are part of the chosen few, you will be disappointed.
I am very impressed with this school's academic, sport and other activities achievements. My son is very proud of being a member of this school. Yes, it is very competitive, however the support form school teachers and staffs is unthinkable. All the members in the school seem to have one and only one goal that is to help your kids to succeed and they all have done a great job.
My biggest problem is the school does not care about the kids. They have a teacher that gets multiple complaints but they do nothing and they have no option because she is the only one that teaches that class and it is a required class for all students to graduate. The principle and dean support her and not the students. Many of the teachers are great, but not all of them. I am very thankful for the understanding and support of the counselors. They are amazing.
Raised in the Cheyenne System and graduated from the High School. It is a wonderful school that stresses excellence in everything from academics to sports to fine arts. It's also the only school I'll consider sending my own children to.
This school prides itself on being a college prep school. I graduated ready for college and my college classes were very easy for me. If you want a dumbed down high school send your kids to Harrison. They can train to be Walmart employees,
This is the top school district in all of Colorado Springs. As a parent of two college aged kids who came up through the CMSD, I am so glad we chose this district. As a parent of a highly successful student and one with special needs (asperger's), we felt both needs were met through CM. Through the LEAD program, our son matured and gained the confidence to become his own advocate. It gave him the ability to leave home and step out of his comfort zone. We are truly grateful to the staff and friends they made at CM. Our other student is in an engineering school and credits CM with preparing her adequately for the rigorous classes she has in college. She said she was definitely more prepared than her fellow classmates.
Most blaring problem is there is NO SCHOOL BUS -at all- and the public bus will not take the kids either. So you have to do all the transportation to a public shool. Do not expect them to contact you if your kid gets behind. They don't care. It is run like a university, expecting 14 year olds to take full responsibility with no parental or teacher involvment whatsoever. And God help you if your kid gets sick. Parents are required to bring kid to school for exactly the # of hours missed and make up all those hours, even PE, on your own time. It is a wealthy part of town, very snobbish and condescending, and many teachers are the same. They assume you have a servant or a stay-at-home mom who lives only to transport kids for 6 hours a day. Any missed assignment is a zero by the time you find out, with no way to fix it. My hubby and I both have graduate degrees, and any University is more focused on helping students than this place. This school honestly doesn't care at al if your kids pass or fail.
My four brothers and I graduated from Cheyenne, kindergarten through 12th. The school was amazing when we were there so my husband and I decided that our kids should experience the excellent education that the 5 of us received. How wrong we were! The school teaches to the top 9%, if you are not in that group you might as well be invisible, no communication from teachers until after the semester is over, horrible, horrible special education, the teachers don't give a darn. I deeply regret sending our kids through District 12, if I could do it over again they would be in Academy school district 20. Don't send your kids to Cheyenne School Distrcits.
I have had three children attend CMHS. Two were classic over achievers and they excelled. One of my children, however, has severe ADHD and needed a lot of assistance. I found both the administration and the teachers seriously lacking in understanding and the ability to handle a child with educational difficulties. I too found the parent portal to be of little assistance. Teachers only emailed if there was a behavioral difficulty and only identified grade issues at the end of the semester where little could be done to address the issue.
If you have a child that begins to struggle, you won't hear about it from a teacher or guidance counselor. You'll first learn of it from a progress report or a report card; even though emails and telephone numbers are readily available to the teachers. The administration advises you to monitor the portal page but most teachers are quite lax about keeping the portal current. Many are delinquent at responding to emails and telephone calls. Our daughter was an honor student and graduated from CMHS so we did not experience these challenges with her teachers. Our son who is four years behind her attended but has had difficulty in the math and sciences departments. The teachers we have worked with have been a disappointment, with rare exception.
Blue Ribbon School, yes, AP classes, yes! But leadership needs to be refreshed and the kids that are off track need more support. So, if you are a high achiever, you will excel. If you need help - this is a public school setting and you may need to look elsewhere. There is a LEAD program, but what happens if that 1 teacher is gone?
Excellent school in all respects. I have 3 children who graduated from CMHS, all doing well in their respective colleges. One has graduated from the University of Chicago with Honors and a higher grade point average than he was able to achieve in HS. Excellent teachers, staff facilites and coaches. I wish I could go bact to this HS!
I attended this school within a a reasonable amount of year. I would have gone no where else if i were educated on the educational facts and the student body. Like any other school it will contain a misfit or two but the education quality is paramount. You are in college class rooms day in and day out from the moment you step into the school. I wouldnt trade in my education or social years spent at CMHS for anything.
the academics are good and the art's program is fantastic but there is very little personal education focus, there is little hands on learning and too many umbrella standards, certain teachers will provide a great class while others teaching the same subject will not make the information clear,uuuuuuuuuuunsett
CMHS is an excellent school, with great teachers and involved administrators. My child had emotional difficulties while in high school, and the folks at CM were helpful and responsive throughout her four years there. The students are held to very high standards academically and are ready for work at competitive colleges after graduation. CM's theater, musical theater, music and arts program are great. Too much emphasis on football, but isn't that the case everywhere... And it would be so much better if the student body was more diverse! But all in all, a great experience, and we never regretted having to move just to have our child in District 12.
While the academics are good, the kids their are out of control and parents do very little to keep the students in line.
Cheyenne Mountain High School is the best of quality in educational standards, communication with parents, a sense of community with sports participation and excellent teachers to top it all off. I think the district in a whole examples what public education should look like across the USA. This is what I experienced while growing up in public education and our US Dept of Education needs to review the Cheyenne Mountain District's model and share it with others schools where failure is at an all time high.
Cheyenne Mountain is an excellent school. The teachers really care about your child's well-being, and they care more about what you learn than what grades you receive. This school offers various AP courses, which are comparable to the rigors one will experience in college. Students leaving Cheyenne Mountain make a smooth transition to college because of the difficulty of this school.
Premiere school in the area. Excellent facilities and teachers. More variety and number of extracurricular activities would be nice.
as a former student of this high shool i would first like to say cheyenne would be one of the best choices you could make for your child. The teaching and coaching staff of cheyenne is among the best. many of the teachers themselves went to Cheyenne. The preperation that this school offers is amazing. the fact that the school does so well on all of its test scores is great too. my expierience at cheyenne is on of the best in my life so far. great school, great teachers, it would be a great choice for your student.

Afternoon Kittens…
So I've given up on pressuring myself to write errrry day…and now I only write when I put fingers to keys. I know that whole deal about "Writers, write"…well, if you're a killer, you only have to do it once to maintain that title…so…I will confidently hold onto my title as a writer.
I'm in the midst of a transitional period right now…I've been unemployed since Feb, I'm seeing someone…sorta, I think…I'm looking to leave my home to go and stay with a sister and to embark on the adventurous unknown. I can only be confident, not to mention joyful, that God has me in His care and that He loves this little "mud baby" with all His heart.
Soooo, I've also been going to the gym…am almost 10lbs down and I'm really feelin' myself…like seriously, you would think I had lost 40lbs the way I've been batting my eyes around and swingin' these hips. Not sure if it's my nearly invisible 10lbs lost or the confidence I'm exuding that has been bringing all the boys to the yard, but I'll take it.
Did I mention I damn near live in a rubberized girdle? Mmm-hmmm…if I get to moving around too much it smells like a race track, but it keeps the extra goo tucked in a bit. Here's a little confession…I like when I'm working out and then I start to smell some funk…why…'cause I'm puttin in work, bay-bee!! If I can push past the layers of Degree I've slathered on, then I just KNOW that I'm doing something. I joked to a trainer that I wanted to work off my grizzle (gut) and that once I got going, he was gonna smell bacon. And that by the time I left the gym, it was gonna be smelling like IHOP in there…(sorry if I just ruined breakfast delights for you).
I'm optimistic about the days ahead, but will gladly take any donations you would like to send my way...seriously, I haven't worked since Feb…help a sistah out, will ya? *rattles tin coffee cup*
Alright….I better do something about the stuff under the stairs that needs sorting or packing or discarding. Gotta act like I'm going to be the only ant hauling stuff in and out on moving day. That's surely motivation enough for me.
Okay Kittens...go be useful…do something you have been putting off before I put these (metaphorically speaking) boots to your sweet little kitty asses. LOVE YOU!

Best Bowls We Know: Holiday punches to keep you warm
Published: December 11, 2013
The holidays are crazy, sure, but throwing a winter-themed soiree doesn't mean slaving over cocktails at your home bar–far from it.
Holiday punches are not only easy to put together, but they'll quench your guests' thirst while adding a bit of flair to your gathering.
Don't have a punch bowl? Visit local thrift or antique stores and check out the spread, or call around, someone's grandmother might be your hook up. Or try a beverage jar instead, available at most department stores.
To get you on the punch-drunk path, we have a few easy ways to bowl over your guests.
Mulled Wine with Dark Brown Sugar
The first is a classic throwback with a savory twist: the addition of pepper and fennel give this mulled wine a significant kick that's balanced by the addition of rich brown sugar. Serve this one out of a pitcher.
2 teaspoons black peppercorns, lightly crushed
1 teaspoon fennel seeds, lightly crushed
1 3-inch cinnamon stick broken into pieces
2 (750-milliliter) bottles of fruity red wine (such as merlot)
3 bay leaves
Zest strips from 1 orange
1 1/2 cups dark brown sugar
Put the peppercorns, fennel seeds and cinnamon in a large tea ball or wrap them in cheesecloth and secure them with kitchen string or twine. In a large saucepan, combine the aromatics with the wine, bay leaves and orange zest. Cover and simmer over low heat for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and let stand, covered, for 30 minutes. Remove the aromatics and orange zest strips. Stir in the sugar until dissolved. Serve warm, in glasses or mugs.
Once cooled, the mulled wine can be poured into a pitcher and refrigerated for up to 3 days. Reheat gently.
Modified from Food & Wine
Cranberry Pomegranate Winter Sangria
It may finally feel like winter outside, but we still can't deny the appeal of fruity, boozy sangria. This particular one uses seasonal fruit to punch up the flavor. While a carafe would suffice, serving the sangria out of a punch bowl will make it easier to scoop up the infused fruit.
1 750-milliliter bottle of white zinfandel or rose
3 cups cranberry juice
2 cups pomegranate juice
1 cup orange juice
1 cup light rum
1 apple, unpeeled, cored, quartered and thinly sliced
1 orange, thinly sliced
1 lemon, thinly sliced
1 cup fresh cranberries
1/2 cup pomegranate seeds
Sparkling water
In an extra-large storage container, combine white zinfandel, cranberry juice, pomegranate juice, orange juice, rum, apple, orange, lemon, cranberries and pomegranate seeds. Chill overnight or at least 4 hours to let flavors meld. Stir before serving and pour into serving pitchers or punch bowl. Serve over ice and top with additional fruit. Top off with a splash of sparkling water.

FORT WAYNE – The two through lanes for eastbound traffic on Dupont Road are scheduled to close west of Coldwater Road for two weeks.
The Fort Wayne Traffic Engineering Department announced Tuesday that the closure will begin Wednesday.
Bercot Inc. will install a water line across Dupont for a development on the southwest corner of Dupont and Coldwater roads, the announcement said.
The department said the left-turn lane to go north on Coldwater will remain open and the south curb lane will function as a through-right lane.
Drivers are encouraged to find alternate routes because congestion and delays are expected.

The Island of Kauai (the Garden Island) is the oldest and most northerly of the Hawaiian Islands. Rivers and streams wind and bend through magnificent jungles. This tropical paradise is blessed with wide sand beaches and waterfall etched mountains.
It's 553 square miles (1,432 square kilometers) are highlighted by some of the state's most enchanting scenery including the Waimea Canyon. The majestic Waimea Canyon, labeled the "Grand Canyon of the Pacific" by Mark Twain, rises more than 5,000 feet (1,524 meters) though the central mountains.
Most evening entertainment is centered on restaurant bars and hotel lounges, although many tourists prefer an evening cruise or luau.
Kaua'i is the only Island where Mokihana berries grow. It was here that the legendary race of little people, the Menehune, flourished. The first successful sugar plantation was established on this Island in 1835.
Mount Waialeale (why-ollie-ollie) stands at the center of the nearly round island. This extinct volcano is considered the wettest spot on Earth, with almost 500 inches (1,270 centimeters) of rainfall each year. This precipitation is surprisingly concentrated. A few miles west, an arid region receives a mere 6 inches (15 centimeters) of rain annually.
Hiking, camping, sport fishing and scuba diving are excellent on the island. Kayak on the same river that Indiana Jones escaped, or windsurf beside playful spinner dolphins. Enjoy a whale watching expedition, or explore exquisite waterfalls on a scenic helicopter tour, or from a zodiac craft. Horseback riding offers breathtaking vistas from the mountains to the beaches. Princeville vacation rentals offer a fabulous starting point for exploration of Kauai.

At the moment I am on 15 mg of Ramipril during the periods when I use Sutent and it lowers the BP somehow, but not enough to put me in the safe range. My Sutent treatment schedule is 2 weeks on 50 mg daily followed by 1 week of no Sutent, etc. during the 1 week of no Sutent my BP lowers to normal levels with less or no Ramipril. What could be the side effects? Thank you.
Pain comes and goes in very sharp stabs in the top right of back behind shoulder blade. Is this normal or should we worry about another cause.
Sutent made me feel terrible while on the 50mg. On the 25 I felt much better. I my tumors did shrink while on the drug, but came right back after I went off. Sutent is very, very hard to live with.

Wisconsin voters are at the polls in a referendum on Gov. Walker. Here's what green voters need to know about his track record -- and future plans.
In a speech last week, the president called on Congress to renew wind-industry tax credits, but neglected to mention "climate change" or "greenhouse gases" or even "pollution."
Mitt Romney promises to revoke federal support for the wind industry. That might not go over well in swing states like Iowa, where the booming wind sector has wide, bipartisan support.
There are some who believe that those behemoth white wind turbines are beautiful and some (Donald Trump) who believe that they're a blight on the landscape. Well, here is a wind turbine that will win over both groups. It's like the Frosted Mini-Wheats of wind energy: The penny pincher in you loves the efficiency, but the Trump in you loves the fact that it looks like it came from West Elm.
Democrats like talking about "Big Oil" and "clean energy." Republicans favor "Solyndra" and "Keystone." No one's into "climate change."
Newark Mayor Cory Booker is handsome, approachable, and once saved a lady from a fire — he's basically the Ryan Gosling of politics. And one of the reasons people like him, even people like me who know next to nothing about his job performance, is that he's always willing to make jokes about himself, and about the fundamental absurdity of being a politician. Which is why I had to love his explanation of why he supports wind power.
A memo reveals how wind energy opponents came together last year to launch efforts to undermine support for the industry.
The Kickstarter video for The WATT? An Energy 101 Primer does a good job of explaining why, exactly, people should care about energy: Energy is everything. It's a part of pretty much every aspect of modern life. wherever you live, whatever you do, however you do it. Unfortunately, most people know next to nothing about how this stuff actually works. The makers of the The WATT? — Focus the Nation, a clean energy youth organization, and Friend of Grist List Ben Jervey — aim to change that by publishing an "users' manual for energy in the 21st century." They're going …
Wind is a critical part of a clean and reliable energy future. But only in moderation, as part of a balanced grid diet.

Business like retrospective today. We rattled pretty quickly through the tickets for the week with only one rejected for further work.
I'm liking our use of pivotal tracker, and it's great to have all the relevant info in the tickets so we can quickly remind ourselves what each ticket means.
If we carry on like this we might actually get our average points for the week to start going up.
Resolving to get some design tickets on the go this coming sprint. And maybe plan that they don't have to be done in one sprint.

In an interview with the Philadelphia Inquirer McNabb denies any and all of these allegations,
That is ridiculous," McNabb said. "I don't know what comments you expect to get from me, but that is news to me and completely false. For me to bully anybody, that sounds unbelievable. . . .I don't really understand why this would come about, one, and two, how this would even be an accusation. If there's anything I can say, I was more than open to Shawn. I always tried to be open to all the guys. I'd invite them over to my house. I'd have holiday dinners or team functions, especially for the offense, every year. I'd buy all the guys gifts, if I made the Pro Bowl or not, for an appreciation. Shawn was one of the most talented offensive linemen we had. I was always happy to have him.
The timing of these accusations is interesting. Not sure what will come of it. But one has to wonder if it is true, will that make others feel safe to tell their stories? At this point, it looks like all we can do is wait and see.

By playing at online casinos, you can win a lot of money - certainly more than you could than if you played at regular casinos in Vegas or other gambling locations around the world. Payout rates are usually higher at online casinos because these sites don't have the overhead costs that regular casinos do and they can afford to be generous with the money that they give away in terms of prizes.
So how do you actually go about grabbing those prizes? We'll show you how to win in online casinos.
The first thing you need to do is open an online casino account at a site that looks to your liking. Do a check to make sure that the site is reputable so that you don't go about losing your money before you even get started!
The next thing you need to do in order to win in online casinos is to check out the bonuses that the site has to offer. The better the bonus on offer, the more money you can win at the site. Check the amount that you will need to deposit into your online casino account before you can redeem the bonus, the actual percentage of the bonus and the wagering requirement.
The wagering requirement (also known as WR) is an important factor because this will determine how many times you will have to wager your initial deposit amount over until you can withdraw your funds. Naturally, online casinos won't let you withdraw your funds immediately (otherwise they'd go bust!) and to make it worthwhile for them, they let you know the wagering requirement before you redeem the bonus.
When learning how to win in online casinos, you need find sites that require you to deposit reasonable amounts, that give you an excellent bonus and that don't demand massive wagering requirements before you can withdraw your funds. Shop around for bonuses such as these, or look up lists of the best online casino bonuses available out there, so that you can get the best returns on your money and win big at the sites!
Once you've find an online casino bonus that seems satisfactory to you, you need to read its terms and conditions very well, tick in the appropriate box to say that you accept these terms and then request that the bonus be applied to your account.
All that you need to do in order learn how to win in online casinos is play your favorite games (making sure that the bonus applies to them, of course!) and start to win big. The more you play, the more you will win and the quicker you will be able to withdraw those winnings from your online casino account.
As you can see, it is not too difficult when you know how to win in online casinos. All it takes is a bit of practice and you'll soon be on your way to the bank with your winnings!

As the global leader in providing high quality technological innovative solutions to a variety of industries, Laird is always improving and enhancing these components and systems to industry-leading standards.
St. Louis, Missouri, USA – November 13, 2012 – Laird Technologies, Inc., a global leader in the design and manufacture of customized, performance-critical components for wireless systems and other advanced electronics applications, today announced the launch of a new version of AZTEC™, a thermoelectric module (TEM) simulation software.
AZTEC™ allows users to specify a given set of input variables based on application attributes and the program will select the optimal TEM(s) for trial. The program also contains an analysis worksheet, which simulates how the TEM(s) will function under a specific set of operating conditions. Available only online, the AZTEC™ tool is accessible from the Laird Technologies Website. Registration is required for first-time users by completing and submitting the online form and then following the software installation instructions.
"The product breadth of a TEM portfolio is very broad and it can be quite cumbersome for a thermal engineer to specify an optimal TEM based on a cross comparison of datasheets," commented Andrew Dereka, Laird Technologies Product Manager. "AZTEC™ is a user-friendly tool that can speed up product development by running simulations on a TEM and viewing its expected output performance based on a given set of thermal and electrical operating points."
The TEM Selection Tool in AZTEC™ uses input variables, such as heat load, ambient and control temperatures, input voltage requirement and thermal resistance of hot side heat exchangers to recommend an ideal TEM(s) needed to reach an application's operating condition. The software has been updated with the latest TEM product offerings from Laird Technologies.
AZTEC™ also features an Analysis Worksheet Tool, which simulates the expected thermoelectric output parameters based on a given set of thermal and electrical operating points. Output parameters calculated include: the hot and cold side temperatures of the TEM, heat pumped at the cold surface of the TEM, coefficient of performance (COP) and input power requirements. The total hot side heat dissipation is also calculated, as it is beneficial in sizing a proper heat exchanger, which commonly mounts directly onto a TEM.
The Qc Estimating Worksheet within the program calculates an estimate on the heat load for device (spot) or chamber (volume) cooling applications. Computations are made based on input provided by the user such as temperature requirements, volumetric dimensions, insulation thickness, material properties and active heat load.
As an industry leader in high-performance and cost-effective Thermal Management Solutions, Laird Technologies provides the knowledge, innovation, and resources to ensure exceptional thermal performance and customer satisfaction for applications in the medical, analytical, telecom, industrial, and consumer markets.

Images are shown approximately 150% actual size, for clarity.
Making the body:
Using half the cord (50"), thread needle and loosely anchor a bead about 1" from the end of the cord by stringing any bead and tying it in place with a half-hitch (the knot that loosely anchors your shoes before you tie the bow). Do not knot firmly; this bead is supposed to come off at the end of the project. This anchor bead will make holding the project easier and stop beads from falling off.
This will be considered the left side of the project.
Starting in the widest part of the Turkey's body (Row 1), string 7 Topaz beads. Make a "Ladder Stitch". *Note: for the body, we'll just call the color of the beads Topaz (though it should be Smoky Topaz), so as not to confuse it with Smoky Topaz SL which are for the feathers.*
This stitch is the foundation for the
Brick Stitch
which is used for this earring. Push the beads towards the end of the cord, about ½" from the anchor bead. Now string back through the second bead from the end of the working cord (the end with the needle). Be sure to go through the left side of that bead.
Now continue going through each bead in line. Be sure to go in the left side hole first. When finished, the working cord should be next to the anchor bead.
Pull tight. Beads should now be in skinny row with their holes up and down.
Start the
Brick Stitch
The next row (Row 2) will have 6 Topaz beads. String a bead and take the needle through the cord of the above row, just between the 1st and 2nd beads. Gently pull partway tight, but make sure you can still see where the cord goes through the bead.
Now string back down into that bead, going in the same hole that the needle just came out of. Gently pull tight.
Pick up another bead and continue down the row until 6 beads are in the row. Notice this stitch decreases with each row.
Repeat with Row 3; it will have 5 Topaz beads.
Making the legs:
Cord should now be coming out of the last bead on Row 3.
From here, string 4 Orange beads, loop back up into the second bead, and out.
String another Orange bead here, and then thread back through the 2 remaining beads and up into the second Topaz bead in Row 3. Pull tight so that the added bead pushes out past the others, making the heel of his foot.
From Row 3, thread up into the third bead in Row 2, across to the fourth bead in, and back down to the fourth bead of Row 3, which is the second bead in from the right side.
Again string 4 Orange beads to make the other leg. Bring in the bead for the heel, and pull needle into the last bead of Row 3.
Finishing the body:
From Row 3, work back up to the first bead in Row 1 on the left side, the side with the 1½" anchor piece. Tie a knot using the two cords and trim the old anchor cord.
Be careful so you do not cut the working cord.
Continue the
Brick Stitch
(working up now) with 6 Topaz beads for Row 4.
- Row 5 has 5 beads.
- Row 6 has 4 beads.
- Row 7 has 3 beads.
Needle should now be coming out of the last bead in the left side of Row 7. This next row (Row 8) needs 4 beads, one at the beginning and end of this row. This is called "adding" beads. Start by stringing 2 Topaz beads, then thread the needle through the cord between the last 2 beads of the below row.
Then go back through the hole of the second bead strung (go through the hole you came out of). Notice that this pushed the first bead out past the end bead on Row 7.
Brick Stitch
another Topaz bead and then "add" a Siam bead (for the wattle) to the end of this row. Do this by stringing the siam bead, then pulling needle down into the last bead in Row 7, out the side and back up into the Siam bead.
Row 9 is a normal "decreasing" row, with a Siam, one Orange (for his beak), and a Topaz.
Make Row 10 exactly like in steps 4c-e by "adding" beads.
Use a Topaz, 2 Orange, and a Siam.
The next row up (Row 11) will also need beads "added".
This row has a Siam, 3 Orange, and a Topaz.
And again with Row 12 "add" beads at the beginning and end. Use 3 Topaz and 3 Siam.
Continue now with the normal
Brick Stitch
decreasing the number of beads in Row 13 to five.
-Row 13 has a Topaz, Black (for the eyes), a Topaz, another Black, and another Topaz.
-Row 14 has 4 Topaz.
-Row 15 has 3 Topaz.
Making the feathers:
Cord is now on the left side of the Turkey's head. Work the cord down through beads of the head and body, coming out the bottom of the 1st bead on Row 2.
Now string a Bugle bead, a Smoky Topaz SL, a Topaz SL, another Sm. Topaz SL, 3 White Ceylon, a Sm. Topaz SL, a Topaz SL, a Sm. Topaz SL, a Bugle bead, and another Sm. Topaz SL.
Thread needle into the bottom hole of the end bead on Row 1, out of the top of the hole, and back into the Sm. Topaz SL, Bugle bead, Sm. Topaz SL, Topaz SL, and Sm. Topaz SL.
Stop before going into the 3 Whites.
Add 3 more Whites and work back down with a Sm. Topaz SL, Topaz SL, Sm. Topaz SL, Bugle, and 2 Sm. Topaz SL's. Attach to Row 5, and come back out the brown feather beads (stopping before the white beads).
Continue the above steps, but the next group will have 3 Sm. Topaz SL's at the end and it will attach on Row 8.
The next eight groups of feathers are all alike but will NOT have any Sm. Topaz SL beads at the bottom of the Bugle bead.
Attach feathers to the ends of Rows 11, 13, and 15.
Add the 3 white beads to the top of the feather that came out of #15, and attach another feather to the cord between the 1st and 2nd beads on the top of Row 15.
Instead of 3 White beads, string 5. This will be the center of the feathers, where an ear wire will be attached. Hook the other end of this feather to the thread between the 2nd and 3rd beads on that same row.
Going down the opposite side of the turkey, attach a feather to the other end of Row 15 and one on Rows 13 and 11.
This next group has the 3 Sm. Topaz SL beads at the end of the Bugle and it attaches to Row 8.
A group with 2 Sm. Topaz SL beads is attached to Row 5, and one with only 1 Sm. Topaz SL at the end will go on Row 3.
Attach the last feather to Row 2. It does not have a bead after the Bugle.
To finish off the cording, Zigzag the needle around through many beads in different rows, going up and down. This will secure the cord. Trim excess cord.
*Note: Cording can also be added by doing this step, in case your cord is too short.*
Attach the ear wire, by opening the loop at the bottom of the ear wire.
Repeat steps for other earring.

Golden Gate Bedroom: The Look for Less

Adding a sense of high-cost luxury to any room in your home can be accomplished on a budget. Use these tips to help you create the room of your dreams for minimal expense.
- To soften your bed without the expense of an upholstered frame, create your own upholstered headboard and/or footboard. For the Sensibly Chic space Jen Jordan cut plywood shapes, covered them with foam, then stitched slipcovers to fit snugly over the plywood shapes.
- Layer plush pillows on top of affordable linens to establish a luxurious look in your bedroom. Different shapes, textures, and colors of pillows add interest and comfort to the most important feature of any bedroom: the bed.
- Though they are small details, hardware for doors and case goods can make a big difference in conveying a style; think of it as jewelry for your cabinets and furnishings. Jen changed the handles on the dresser she chose to resemble the classic lines of the stately piece in the inspiration room. Look to home improvement centers for a wide variety of styles that will suit your decor.
- Because a marble top was not realistic for the Sensible Chic team's budget, Jen painted a faux marble finish on a less expensive desk for impressive results. Before committing time and energy to painting a piece, look in books, take classes, and practice on sample boards, Jen suggests. Then you'll feel more confident with the faux marbling technique.
- Add romantic presence with a candelabra. Choose its size and the height of its candles depending on the scale of the room and how much prominence you want the piece to have (for instance, tall ceilings suggest a tall candelabra). In the case of the makeover space, extra-tall candles make the candelabra more imposing and draw the eye up on a parallel with the bed curtains.

WASHINGTON, DC ( release ) The U.S. Education Department, in advance of remarks today by Secretary Arne Duncan on the proposed American Jobs Act, spotlighted a new report by the Council of the Great City Schools showing that Buffalo and other urban school systems face substantial, costly repairs to deteriorating buildings and classrooms.
According to the report, Buffalo needs substantial resources including:
-- $150 million for renovation, repair and modernization of its schools. And,
-- $50 million to pay for deferred maintenance at schools.
Under the American Jobs Act, the administration estimates that New York could receive $2.0 billion for modernization efforts to rebuild crumbling buildings and classes, which could help Buffalo begin work on long overdue upgrades to schools and classrooms.
"Our children only get one shot at a good education. They deserve better than crumbling school buildings and half-century-old science labs. This report is further proof that Buffalo's schools critically need the funds proposed by the President in the American Jobs Act," U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan said. "The Act will provide billions for school modernization, which will help give our children the world-class education they deserve."
Some of the nation's largest school districts have some of the country's oldest and most overcrowded school buildings. The President's American Jobs Act plan will invest $30 billion in enhancing the condition of these schools—with $25 billion going to K-12 schools for repair, renovation and modernization. While this bill would help finance long overdue repairs, it would also create needed jobs and help put hundreds of thousands of Americans back to work.
The report released today surveyed 50 of the largest school districts in the country to determine the scope and scale of repairing and upgrading facilities. The survey determined that the school districts have substantial construction, renovation, modernization and deferred maintenance needs because of the age and size of school buildings, shifting populations, and the need to devote resources to instructional personnel to meet their core academic mission.
