Excellent camera for the price,
This review is from: Canon Powershot A1200 12.1 MP Digital Camera with 4x Optical Zoom (Black) (Camera)
I bought the Canon A1200 because I wanted a small point and shoot that I could take everywhere with me. Other selling points were the optical viewfinder which I don't really use much, as well as the AA batteries. I use Sanyo Eneloops in this camera and they work great. I don't know how many pictures I can take with them on a single charge because I end up recharging them before they die completely.
The biggest surprise for me has been how well this camera does in low lighting. I have sometimes had trouble with getting good exposures in the dim lighting in my house but not with this camera. The sensor seems to be tuned for low light performance and it is a consistent performer for birthday parties or just taking snapshots of my kids.
I uploaded a few of the artistic shots I've made with this camera and I can say that the A1200 has exceeded all of my expectations for a point and shoot camera at this price range. It is a great performer and with a little effort it will take great images. I've messed around with some of the preset options and they help a little bit, but the auto setting works well if you don't want to fiddle with things. Also, the Discreet Mode is great! I accidentally took a picture with auto-flash and interrupted a speaker, so now I always use this mode to disable the focus light and flash when needed.
On a final note, I bought a Lowepro Volta case and it's a perfect fit, though there is no room for spare batteries. I just wanted a slim package that I can fit in my pocket. It's a bit bulky but not an inconvenience. I highly recommend this camera if you are on a budget and want a solid performer at the hundred dollar price range.

Great review. Very helpful!

I bought it because of this review mentioning it did well in low light. I have another Canon Powershot A630 which does fantastic in low light too, but I wanted a smaller camera for my purse. I have a low light living room 15x30, and this camera does as well as the A630. It lights up the whole room and the people at the other end. I am just a casual photo taker, and this fits my needs very well and takes great outdoor shots too. The other day, I was glad it had a view finder outdoors because the sun washed out the LCD. I ordered it from Amazon thinking if it didn't do well in low light, I would send it back. There is no way I am going to send this camera back. Hope it lasts forever. I'm glad the reviewer mentioned that it did well in low light.

Can you share how much time between turn-on and picture taking? Some of my other cameras take almost 1/2 minute to turn on and the event I wanted to capture is long gone. I'd like to just pull it out of my pocket and fairly immediately shoot, the way we used to do with film. It would be nice if manufacturers could provide turn-on time in their specifications. I really like; AA batteries (I also use 2000mAH Eneloop NiMH), 720p H.264 monaural, SDHC, small size. I also use 32GB SDHC Class 10 cards, and wonder if this larger memory size will affect turn-on times? I should also add, I'm very happy with "smart charger" Targus Digital TG-LCD2700 AA/AAA Charger with LCD Display with 4 AA 2500 mAh Batteries to charge the Eneloop batteries.

I just tried mine and I counted 1, 2, and on 3, I could take a picture. I have a 4 gb SD card. It doesn't say anything else. Some cards say it they are fast. I want to go back to 2 gb cards because if the card fails, you don't lose that many pictures. I save them right away on my computer, but always like them on the card too. I think your card is holding up the start time. Look for one that says high speed or try a 2 or 4 gb card. I am no camera expert, but I had heard that the faster cards allow you to take pictures faster too. I love this camera. Hope it lasts a long long time.

Craig Arno says:
Thank you for such a quick response. 3-4 seconds for turn on is acceptable to me. From your message I now also know if I have worse response times to try smaller card(s).
Class 10 is about the fastest card available (look for the 'C' with a 2/4/6/8/10 in the middle), so if it slows, I'll suspect a "file system" check at turn-on. I typically rotate cards and rechargeable batteries out of my camera as needed or every day or two and try to back up same to my notebook computer. Loss due to theft is also more a problem than failure at some travel destinations (either results in loss of pictures). The extra storage on the card lets me shoot as much video as I want without worrying about a full card (720p chews it up quickly). I had 4 of these 32GB Class 10 cards in my pocket along with a two spare sets of AA's on a recent trip to Australia. The Canon A1200 looks handier than what I took with me. I didn't want a full card or dead batteries preventing me from recording some spectacular part of a trip of a lifetime!
In reply to an earlier post on Nov 28, 2011 1:38:39 PM PST
I never have done video, so never tried any bigger cards. I'll look next time to see what different cards there are so I'll know what I might need. I don't know if they would slow the camera down or not. I can only say what happens when I use my plain 4 gb card. I can see too that you have a totally different use for a camera. I just take family shots and a few landscapes. Works well for me, but wouldn't be able to say if it would work for your needs. Maybe the bigger expensive cameras handle cards differently too...my little Canons start right up with the 4gbs.

I personally use Sanyo Eneloops for some of my various needs, (particularly for my xbox 360 controllers and portable lights). I've read reviews on Sanyo Eneloop batteries and they seem great for use in cameras and photography. I'm considering buying this camera and should I buy this camera or any other camera, I'm definitely using Sanyo Eneloops batteries for mine.

Davies Office Earns Third level Certification | Facility Executive - Creating Intelligent Buildings
The company earned its first BIFMA level certification for remanufactured office furniture in Fall 2011.
Davies Office Earns Third level Certification
Davies Office has become the first office furniture remanufacturer to earn level Sustainability Certification from the Business and Institutional Furniture Manufacturers Association (BIFMA) — for its remanufactured Herman Miller Ethospace panel system line.
This is the company's third BIFMA level certification for office panel systems. In October 2011, Davies Office earned the certification for its remanufactured Avenir and System 9000 panel system lines.
Company President, Bill Davies, said, "The Herman Miller Ethospace panel is the first frame-and-tile system providing a strong foundation and good deal of flexibility for office panel systems. Now, companies that have or want Herman Miller Ethospace panel systems can turn to Davies Office to repurpose existing product instead of having to purchase new, all while being assured that their product has met the rigorous sustainability standard."
Located in Albany, NY, Davies Office was founded in 1948 and has become the largest office furniture remanufacturer in the U.S. specializing in asset recovery and redeployment, high performance workspace solutions, and comprehensive project management from planning through installation.

Balanchine: Jewels based on 0 ratings. 1 reviews.
Though I'm not what you would call a die-hard fan of Balanchine, I must say that this DVD is definitely worth owning. Personally, I'd recommend the viewer to watch the hour-long documentary about the ballet before viewing the ballet itself. It provides a huge amount of insight to the ballet, from the points of view of the directress, dancers, and stagers. For those new to Jewels, there is a significant amount of information given about what each act represents, and how Balanchine's seemingly abstract movements are actually something of poetic genius. In the French interpretation of this work, I have to say that they dance Emeralds (the act that represents the French school) with the highest and most unique French quality. The dancers in the first act are perfectly selected, and the corps de ballet here is stunning. Very notable dancers here are Nolwenn Daniel (in the 'Entr'acte', or pas de trios), and Clairemarie Osta (in 'Sicilienne', 'Nocturne', and 'La mort de Mélisande'), who perfected the Emeralds image with their own artistic takes on the choreography. The most disappointing of the acts was Rubies, which is well-known for it's representation of the American school and style. Here, it is danced with much more restraint, much less daring, and much more balance. However, technically the dancers are still stunning, so the effect of Jewels isn't diminished greatly. Finally, Diamonds, the act that represents the Russian school and style is danced with an artfulness and with extreme cleanliness, though at some points, a little dull. Of the three acts, Paris Opéra Ballet is stunning in the French style in Emeralds, while the other acts are danced cleanly and precisely, though without some of the flair intended by Balanchine. Also, the costumes and sets for all three of the acts, while somewhat minimalistic (in the Balanchine style), are very beautiful. I recommend this DVD to any ballet collectors, it's an important, historic work of art danced by a fantastic company!

In industrial roentgenology, the part .or parts to be radiographed are placed between the target .of the X-ray tube and the X-ray mm, .0 in the case of fluOroscopy, between the tar et and the fluorescent screen. In the instance of photo-fluoroscopy, the image on the screen is photographed on to an X-ray photographic film, usually much smaller than the screen, by means of a camera.
In any of the above mentioned procedures it is desirable to position the parts so as to obtain the best possible image .of the particular section or sections of the part or parts to be inspected.
In previous practice, the operator has placed such parts on the envelope containing the :X -ray film, and has propped them individually in the desired angular position by means of saw dust, wooden blocks, or other material that is relatively transparent to X-rays. The propping of each .part has heretofore been an independent job individual to such part, and has required handling and positioning each such support, the entire job vbeing repeated for each successive film.
This previous technique has :been .slow a d cumbersome, and the resulting radiographs have not been uniform when exposures for identical parts :have been successively made, and particularly when along interval has elapsed since the previous radiographing of a group of identical orsimilar parts. Uniformityhas not evenbeen present when a plurality of parts have been simultaneously radiographed.
Castings of various kinds tor-m alarge portion of 1 the parts that are customarily *X Iayin spected. Each particular method of making castings such as those that use sand, permanent, semi-permanent or metal molds; those employnssr it e c n ga qu m n l e' ie cast method in which the metal is forced thernold under pressure h as its peculiar problemsand willproduce castings that may be found defective in certain sections only, because [of th part ula .m the empl yed-1. 11 er 5. .9

In the case of highly stressed castings, such as are used in the construction of airplanes, it is customary to X-ray'inspect a percentage or all of the castings of a given design or kind.
In the inspection of the majority of such cast ings, each one must be completely X-ray inspected, which requires views from various angles in order to obtain a complete analysis of every section.
The afore-mentioned considerations require that castings of'the same design and shape 'be so placed in the X-ray beam that identical'views will be obtained. 'Otherwise,' the person examining the radiographs .would not'be aware of the magnitude or significance of any deflect that might .be present. The present invention greatly increases the speedQefficiency, accuracy anaeriectiveness of industrial radiographi'ctechnique, and also correspondingly reduces the cost.'
.One of the objects of the present invention is to speed up the positioning of the parts to'jbe inspected.
Another object is to secure greater uniformity in such positioning, to the end that diagnoses will b more accurate. i
Another object is to assure substantially identical or similar orientation of a-plurality of s'uch parts with respect to the incident X-rays.
Another objectis to secure such substantially identical or similar orientation in case identical parts areradiographedatalater time. Another object is to attain uniformity in such positioning and in the resulting radiographsfregardless of whether the work is done "by the sameo a d e ntop at r- ,Q I DFIA bifl t 1 t limine q unclear radiographs due to vibration or rocking of the art tha arez eins rad oe a he Another object is' to secure accurate and r spectiyely similar yiews of certainor s11" 'f illets and sections in a plurality of parts "to be radio graphed.
:Another object is ;the provisi n of a meth d of making ,radiographs ,which makes it possible to laltertdan desired degree the view of parts .to .belinspected bymerelyaltering the. supporting structure on the fixture.
An additional object is the reduction of ,the skillregquiredon-the part 0f-the operators maliing theradiographs.
"A further object is the provision of fixtures whereby the attaining of one Or more of the aiorementioned objects may be facilitated,
A still further object is the provision of a type of J'ig by means of which a plurality of parts may be suitably positioned in order to obtain satisfactory images on a single film.
Yet additional objects will appear as the specification proceeds.
In the drawings:
Fig. 1 illustrates, partly diagrammatically, the common method heretofore used for making a radiograph of a plurality of parts on a single film.
Fig. 2 is an oblique projection, partly broken away, of a casting shown in the various figures for the purpose of illustrating the present invention.
Fig. 3 illustrates the means and method of my invention, and shows a plurality of castings arranged on a fixture constructed according to my teachings, the fixture and castings being superimposed over a holder containing an X-ray film, the relationship of the castings, fixture and film with respect to the tube and the X-rays being indicated diagrammatically.
Fig. 4 is an enlarged view of a portion of Fig.
1, showing more clearly the casting at the left in Fig. l in its relation to the X-rays. Fig. 5 is a partial section through the lower part of Fig. 3, taken substantially on line 5-5 thereof and shows the center casting and the one to the left thereof in their relation to the X-ray beam.
Fig. 6 is a plan view the castings in Fig. 3.
Fig. '7 illustrates the common past method that would. have been used to secure an additional view of a plurality of castings of the type shown in the various figures.
Fig. 8 illustrates my method of obtaining the corresponding additional view of such castings, and also shows a portion of the required fixture constructed according to my invention.
The X-ray beam originates at the target of the X-ray tube, its actual source. For the purpose of illustrating my invention, it may be considered as a point source, although in practice it varies from one-half millimeter to ten millimeters in diameter, depending upon the type of X-ray tube target employed. In Figs. 1 and 3 the target is indicated diagrammatically by the diagonal line I.
In Fig. 1, three castings 2, 3 and 4 are symmetrically arranged beneath the tube 5 on the filmcontaining holder 6, in a manner heretofore common. It will be observed that the center casting 3 is positioned directly beneath the target I and that the central rays 8 are substantially parallel to the vertical axis of the casting. The rays are also normal to the base I of casting 3. Castings 2 and 4, however, are not so arranged with respect to the rays. Not only does this result in distorted radiographic images; it causes an overlapping of shadows that prevents an accurate diagnosis. This will be more apparent from an examination of Fig. 4.
A great many of the defects in castings occur in the fillets and other places where sections come together or change their direction. Fillets such as 9 and I0 in Fig. 4 must therefore receive a thorough inspection. This cannot be done satisfactorily when the parts are merely lined up as shown in Fig. 1, for the reason that there will be too much superimposition of the shadows of certain portions. Because casting 2, Figs. 1 and l is not directly beneath the tube target, it receives the X-rays from an oblique angle. Ray
of the fixture that supports ga ete II, which passes through the edge of the casting at I2, strikes the film at point I3; and. ray I4, which passes through the portion of the fillet 9 that lies furthest to the right, strikes the film at point I5. The shadow and image of the fillet 9 lies between points I3 and I5; but a shadow of all the parts of the casting that lie within the triangle I2, I5, I6, also falls on the film between points. I3 and I5, thus spoiling a proper image of the fillet 9.
Such difficulties as this can be avoided by disposing the parts on a specially prepared fixture 22, as shown in Fig. 3, so that they all receive the X-rays from substantially the same angle. The advantages of such positioning are evident in Fig. 5, which shows castings I1 and I8 of Fig. 3 from a front elevation. Casting I'I, being directly beneath the target, is properly disposed in the beam for a view of the fillets I9 and 20 and the base 2|; and casting I8 has been given a similar relationship with respect to the X-rays by elevating it by means of block 23. Block 21 assists in positioning casting I8 and also keeps it from sliding.
Fig. 6 is a plan view of the fixture shown in use in Fig. 3. Supports 23, 24, 25 and 26 are all of substantially equal height, because the castings supported thereby, as shown in Fig. 3, are all substantially equi-distant from the center where the rays are perpendicular to the fixture. Braces 28, 29 and 30 are respectively similar to support 21 and serve the same purpose. Thecastings in the four corners are slightly .further from the center than those supported by members 23, 24, 25 and 26 and they must therefore be tilted a greater amount. Supports 3I to 38 must consequently-be of a height that will accomplish this. Braces 39, 40, 4| and 42 serve to position the corner castings and to prevent sliding.
Broken lines 43, 44, 45 and 46 are arcs of radii whose center is the target I, and these arcs may therefore be considered as lying on the surface of a sphere whose center is the target. It will be observed from this figure that a correct p0- sitioning of the castings shown, requires that their bases be substantially parallel to planes tangent to this sphere at the points thereon which are respectively nearest to the bases.
For purposes of illustration it may be assumed that the bases and fillets of these castings are not the only things to be inspected, and that defects. may also be reasonably expected in the barrels or upper portions 41. This requires that additional ,radiographs of these castings be made from angles that will give the most unobstructed views of the upper sections. They must there'- fore be oriented substantially at right angles to the positions illustrated in the figures just described. Y
In the older practice, such castings would be disposed for this purpose somewhat as illustrated in Fig. 7. Casting 48 in this figure is fa.- vorably situated. with respect to the X-rays' 49', which fall parallel to the base 50, but castings 5| and 52 receive the rays from a verybad angle. The image of the base of casting 5I will appear on the film between points 54 and 55, but all portions of the barrel lying within the triangle 54, 53, 55 will also fall between the points 54 and 55 on the film, with the result that the various shadows will be. superimposed. 'Only the section between points 56 and 51, the shadow of which falls between points 55 and 58, will be properly radiographed. Matters are even worse for casting 52, for here only the portion 59 between the indicated rays is favorably situated, and the only portion of the radiograph of this casting that will be free from unnecessary overlapping images will be the relatively small area 60 Figure 8 shows how such castings are positioned for inspecting the upper sections according to my method. The illustration shows a fixture Bl having upright members arranged to hold the castings in the most favorable positions with respect to the incident rays, according to the pattern and method already explained. The advantages of this positioning will be evident from the figure, which shows the incident rays.
In the laboratory where my method of making radiographs is now in every day use, separate fixtures are usually made for each view. The base of the fixtures should be as transparent as possible to the X-rays, and they are therefore currently made of cardboard. The supports and braces should also be substantially transparent to the X-rays, and for this purpose balsa and yucca wood has been found satisfactory. The braces and supports must not be attached by means of brads, nails, or screws, as these would appear in the radiographs. I therefore prefer to use an X-ray transparent adhesive, such as Duco cement.
In designing and making the fixtures, it is convenient to place the base beneath a point source of visual rays and determine the heights of the supports by tilting the objects to be inspected until all shadows disappear or reach minimum sizes.
After a fixture has been completed, it may be used whenever castings of the type for which it was made are to be radiographed.
My preferred method of making the radiographs after the fixture has been completed, is as follows:
An unexposed X-ray film, usually in an envelope or folder opaque to visual rays, is placed in a holder of relatively substantial material, such as cardboard. The fixture is then placed on top of the film holder, and then the parts to be inspected are properly arranged on the fixture. This entire assembly is then so disposed beneath the target of the X-ray tube that the rays fall on the objects at the angles contemplated When the fixture was constructed. The exposure is then made.
A variant from this method is to arrange and set-up the entire assembly beneath the tube in the first place. If time is not important, this plan is satisfactory; but my preferred method makes it possible to set up one group of castings while another group is being radiographed.
Various modifications may be made from the type of fixture and from the methods described without departing from the broad spirit of my invention as set forth in the appended claims.
My claims are:
1. A fixture for use in industrial radiography, comprising: a base of X-ray-transparent material, and a plurality of X-ray-transparent supporting members attached to the upper surface thereof, at least a portion of said members of such heights that the objects supported thereby will vary in their relative orientation substantially according to the direction of the incident rays.
2. The method of making industrial radiographs which includes: placing an X-ray transparent fixture on a container containing an unexposed X-ray film, said fixture comprising a plurality of supporting members each having such height that an object at least part of which is to be supported thereby will be so oriented that the section to be X-ra-y inspected will lie in a plane substantially tangent to the surfaceportion nearest said section on a mathematical sphere-segment having its convex side toward the upper surface of said film; placing the objects to be inspected upon said fixture; so disposing said container, film, fixture and objects in their recited relationships beneath an X-ray tube that the X-rays therefrom will be normal to the surface of said segment; and making the exposure while said container, film, fixture and objects are in the last recited positions.
3. The method of making industrial radiographs which includes; placing a container containing an X-ray film beneath an X-ray tube; placing an X-ray transparent fixture on said container, said fixture comprising a plurality of supporting members each having such height that an object at least part of which is to be supported thereby will be so oriented that the section to be inspected will lie in a plane substantially tangent to the nearest portion to said section on the surface of a. segment of a mathematical sphere having its convex side toward the upper surface of said film; placing the objects to be inspected upon said fixture; and making the exposure when the recited parts are in the recited positions.

"This is my beloved, and this is my friend."
Song of Solomon 5:16
John Henry Kunz, 86, of Bellevue, Washington died at his home on Thanksgiving Day, November 25, 2010, surrounded by his loving family. He was born on June 22, 1924, in rural Emmons County, North Dakota to Andrew H. and Lizzie (Kingman) Kunz. He was the oldest of six children.
On May 2, 1974, John knelt at the altar of the Evangelical United Brethren Church in Olivia, Minnesota. The scripture which spoke to his heart was Romans 10:9, "If you confess with your mouth 'Jesus is Lord' and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved." So on that day John was saved as he asked Jesus to come into his heart to be his Lord and Savior. God is faithful to His children, and on Thanksgiving Day 2010, the angels came to take John home to be with Jesus for all eternity.
John received his elementary education in a one-room school in Emmons County, ND. He graduated from high school in Pollock, South Dakota in 1942. He began his teaching career that fall in the same one-room school where he himself attended for eight years. Every two years he passed the Teacher's Examination, certifying him to teach in elementary schools. He taught in Emmons County for the next ten years. In 1956 John graduated with a BS Degree in Social Science and Education from North Dakota State Normal and Industrial College, Ellendale, ND. John holds a life-time teaching certificate as well as a degree in Guidance Counseling from the University of North Dakota. He continued to attend summer sessions at the University of North Dakota, Grand Forks, ND and MN State University, Moorhead, MN. as he worked toward his Master's Degree in History. He retired in 1983 after 40 years in the classroom, having taught students from Head Start program, kindergarten and on through high school.
John enjoyed a good game of baseball, whether playing the game himself in his younger years or armchair-coaching the New York Yankees, Minnesota Twins, or Seattle Mariners in his later years. He was an avid genealogist and especially enjoyed helping others with their research.
He faithfully served in the church where he and his family attended, from the official board, treasurer, grounds keeper, Lay speaker, Usher or Sunday school teacher. He actively participated in the Methodist Lay Witness Mission under the direction of, Maurice Schwen, coordinator, Blue Earth, Minnesota. John traveled to numerous churches across the state sharing his faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. He was elected to the City Council and was an active member of Kiwanis. He was instrumental in organizing a Kiwanis Club in Olivia, MN and was elected Charter President. John served in the position of Lt. Governor of Division Two, Minnesota-Dakota District of Kiwanis International.
John is survived by Dorothy, his loving wife of 49 years, daughter Anita (Alan) Fossum of Bellevue, WA, stepdaughters, Geraldine (Jody)(Charles) Foy of Bismarck, ND and Cynthia (Cindy) (Bob) Briggs of Urbana, Iowa; granddaughter Jessica Fossum, Bellevue, WA; two brothers, Fred Kunz of Pollock, SD and Ted (Faith) Kunz of Philip, SD; one sister, Arlene (Gene) Morton of Britton, SD and many cousins, nieces and nephews.
Preceding him in death are his parents, Andrew and Lizzie Kunz, sister Adelaide Kunz and brother Alvin Kunz all of Pollock, South Dakota.
We say goodbye for now – yet by faith we share God's promise that we will meet again.

Second-order expressions for the asymptotic bias and variance of the log relative incidence estimator are derived for the self-controlled case series model in a simplified scenario. The dependence of the bias and variance on factors such as the relative incidence and ratio of risk to observation period are studied. Small-sample performance of the estimator in realistic scenarios is investigated using simulations. It is found that, in scenarios likely to arise in practice, asymptotic methods are valid for numbers of cases in excess of 20–50 depending on the ratio of the risk period to the observation period and on the relative incidence. The application of Monte Carlo methods to self-controlled case series analyses is also discussed.

If you still are interested in adding players off the waiver wire this week, congratulations. It must mean you made the playoffs. Of course I know that's not the case in every league. Some keeper/dynasty leagues allow non-playoff-bound owners to continue making transactions. Also leagues with consolation brackets may allow waiver wire transactions from those only playing for the chumpionship. But for most fantasy footballers, the days of trolling the waiver wire have ended. I advise you, however, to stay vigilant fantasy football friends. There still may be some help on the waiver wire. For my Rob Gronkowski owners, last week's streaming tight end of choice was Dallas Clark. He didn't disappoint, scoring an early touchdown. I thought it might have paved the way for a bigger day, but nonetheless he scored nearly double-digits in most PPR formats. So in two weeks without Gronk, I've recommended Dustin Keller (WIN) and Tony Moeaki (FAIL) in Week 12 and Dallas Clark (WIN) in Week 13. This week's streaming tight end of the week for Gronk owners is Tony Scheffler. With Ryan Broyles now out of the year, the Lions are short at wide receiver. Scheff should see more time running pass routes to fill the gap. I also wouldn't have a problem starting any of these waiver wire tight ends this week: Greg Olsen, Jared Cook and Jermichael Finley. In that order. All three have plus matchups. If you have any other waiver wire questions/comments, hit me up on the Twitter @TheHazean. Otherwise, good luck in the playoffs!

PsycINFO is the largest database devoted to peer-reviewed literature in behavioral science and mental health. It is produced by the American Psychological Association and includes more than four million records covering almost 2,500 journals (99% are peer-reviewed), books, book chapters and selected dissertations.
The content in PsycINFO is selected by APA experts based on quality and relevance to the field. The database is updated weekly and it includes features such as First Posting for journal records, ensuring access to the earliest publication of a journal article. The coverage dates back to 1597 with comprehensive coverage from the 1880s. Publications included in the database come from more than 50 countries.
The McGoogan Library of Medicine's subscription to PsycINFO is on the EBSCO platform which allows you to search PyscINFO alongside other databases such as CINAHL and MEDLINE to help expand your search results.

Tell us about your job in the library.
What I do for the McGoogan Library is both circulation and reference assistance. I also work on special projects that are assigned to me.
When would you most likely meet or talk with me?
You would most likely see me at the desk in the evenings and weekends.
What do you like about working in the library?
The thing I like most about working in the library is being able to work with an intelligent, talented staff and also to be able to help the students who bring a lot of joy to my job.
What do you like to do outside of work?
What I like to do outside of the library is read. I am a collector of first editions and autographed books, I also collect FBI Most wanted posters. I am currently working on a Master's degree in Criminology and Criminal Justice.
The McGoogan Library will be hosting a Pet Therapy event on Tuesday April 26th, 2016. This event will take place outside of the Sorrell Center at the Sorrell Commons Area from 11:30am-1:00pm. Take a break from studying and come see us. Coloring pages, along with coloring pencils, and popcorn will be provided.
The Pet Therapy event will be held in memory of Steve Bridges. Steve worked at the library for nearly 30 years and was well liked by students and staff at UNMC. He was a strong believer about going the extra mile to relieve stress for students when they needed it the most.
On April 29, 2016 access to the majority of library electronic resources will require authentication while on-campus. Although this may seem like an inconvenience, it's a necessary step to ensure compliance with our licenses. Fortunately the username and password you will use to authenticate is the same as your UNMC NetID.
Because of the large number of licensed resources, moving access to this new setup will occur throughout the week beginning April 25, 2016 with the targeted end date of Friday April 29. If you have any questions, please contact Alison Bobal at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Gutenberg Gem: The Complete Book of Cheese
Today's gem from Project Gutenberg is Bob Brown's The Complete Book of Cheese, which includes one of the most enthusiastic endorsements of the fine dish known as Welsh Rabbit you are likely to find in print. This was obviously written by a lover of cheese. Has some nice illustrations too!
Addendum: I grew up eating Tillamook Cheddar Cheese, made on the Oregon coast, and I still prefer it as my "Cheddar of Choice" for grilled cheese sandwiches. I like the sharp, but the mild is good too.
Actually, the correct term for it is "Wlesh Rarebit." I think it just got bastardized to "rabbit."
Editor's note: Actually, from my reading it seems that the transition was from "rabbit" to "rarebit", rather than the other way around. Consider this link. One dead-tree dictionary lists the term "welsh rarebit" as the more modern of the two forms.
Welsh Rarebit, Rabbit or "Caws Pobi" gets its name quite literally from the words rare (meaning very lightly cooked) and bit (a small piece or portion).
And MMMMMMMMMMMMMM Tillamook Cheddar! Best part of living in the Pacific Northwest. Well, one of the best parts.
No trackbacks yet.

May Morning in Oxford
Central Location
The hotel was easy to find in the middle of Oxford.
My room was on the 3rd floor and had the expected creakiness of such an old building but the room was perfectly adequate with good tea tray, and continental breakfast was nice. The only problem was the lack of hot water in the morning which according to reception shouldn't happen but sadly I had a just about bearable shower.

Comfortable hotel in central Oxford
Really enjoyed the stay, staff were friendly and helpful and non-intrusive.
We were just staying for a night out in Oxford, so spent little time at the hotel, but it was a good sized twin room, clean and comfortable with a good selection of teas and coffee. Breakfast was a simple continental spread in the downstairs cafe. Accommodated my request for a boiled egg rather than the croissants/ meat selection on offer. Friendly staff, although seemed a little stretched serving both hotel (in a rear private section) and off the street customers (at the front of the cafe). Enjoyed my stay and would definitely recommend to others, the location and comfort of the stay alone are fantastic (coming down to street performers on a Broad Street - a great experience), although if you expect a hearty breakfast, perhaps go with a non-breakfast included room and eat at one of the many places near by.

Central, convenient location
I chose this hotel for its location, which is right in the middle of Oxford, so very convenient for the train station, museums, shops and restaurants.
I had a room at the front, so you do get some noise from people walking past at night, but I managed to sleep very well. The room was clean, comfortable and had everything I needed for an overnight stay. The shower was excellent. There was a good choice at the continental breakfast in the café below. The staff were helpful and friendly. We were able to leave our bags there all day for free whilst we went to meetings in the city, which was a very useful service.

Very average
Be aware this is not a hotel despite the name and don't expect anything above very average 3 star accommodation.
The staff seem fairly disinterested, the mattress was old, the bathroom needed badly updated and regrouted. It's a shame as this place has the potential to be amazing and is in a fantastic location but needs badly updated. The WiFi was very patchy so if you plan on doing some work online, I wouldn't bother relying on it.

Great location with a lovely group of very helpful young staff.

The loo was dirty.
I had to clean it myself using the toilet brush. The loo did clean up so it wasn't stained. The bathroom in general wasn't clean with dirty surfaces and a used cotton bud had been left on a shelf.

Location Location Location
This is an amazing little Guest House for anyone who wants to explore the various museums, colleges and shops of central Oxford.
All of these things are within easy and level walking distance from The Buttery. It was very clean and room 305 had fantastic views of Balliol and was good for people watching. The breakfast was a fairly bland experience as the room used is tiny and is part of the café at the front, but it served a purpose and it is easy to see how staff are limited in what they can achieve within the space available. As others have pointed out, the stairs to the rooms are narrow and steep, so would pose problems for people with mobility problems. Similarly, there is little here for very young children and the steps would be difficult for them to climb and a pushchair would never reach the summit. However, if you are fit and have children over 8 years old, this is definitely the place to stay.

General Information
Past Event
The U.S. Census Bureau released new data on poverty and family income for 2012 on September 17, 2013. Poverty declined every year between 1993 and 2000, reaching its lowest level ever for black children and children in female-headed families, but increased from 2001 to 2004. The rate then declined slightly in both 2005 and 2006, but increased every year after 2006 until it had a slight and non-significant decline last year. Given the continuing high rate of unemployment since the Great Recession, most analysts predict at best a modest decline in poverty in 2012.
On September 17, the day the Census poverty report was released, the Center on Children and Families at Brookings held its eleventh annual briefing to discuss the new figures on poverty and income and their implications for families and policymakers. A panel of experts offered their analyses of the Census report and their perspectives on the significance of the new data.
After the program, panelists took audience questions.

Focus on the Future
Another year has come and gone, and it is time again to look toward the future. The coming year promises many opportunities, but, as always, an array of challenges as well. The water industry must endeavor through a time of increasing globalization — a positive trend when it comes to working together to resolve the ever-increasing issues of water scarcity and sustainability, but a negative one in terms of ever-growing competition. Closer to home, U.S.
Industry experts' input on the year to come
New Initiative Backs Local Campaigns to Stop Fracking
MoveOn is awarding $50,000, along with materials, training and strategic support to activists
MoveOn.org Civic Action announced a new #FrackingFighter initiative to support 100 grassroots activists who are working to ban fracking in their local communities. The organization is awarding a total of $50,000 to the "Fracking Fighters," along with materials, training and strategic support.
2013 State of the Industry
Water Quality Products understands the importance of keeping up to date with current industry trends and information. We are pleased to bring you our seventh annual State of the Industry Report, which includes valuable current information regarding the water treatment industry and its trends.
An assessment of the water treatment industry
ASHRAE/AHR Survey Forecasts 2014 HVACR Growth
HVACR manufacturers predict strong economic prospects & solid sales increases
Optimism for improving economic business prospects in the HVACR industry continue to grow, according to a recent ASHRAE/AHR Expo survey sent to more than 1,000 HVACR manufacturers worldwide. According to survey results, 79% of the respondents said their prospects for business were either "excellent" (19%) or "good" (60%) for the coming year. The remaining 21% of the respondents felt prospects were "fair."
Education for Legislation
Legislation and regulations have a large impact on the water quality industry — but the industry also has the power to impact the legislation that affects it. Water Quality Products Managing Editor Kate Cline recently spoke with Bill Dodd, California State Assembly candidate and member of the water industry, about the importance of educating legislators.
Kate Cline: What are the top legislative/regulatory issues currently facing the water quality industry in California?
An update on regulatory issues in California
Study Shows Bottled Water Industry Has Low Water Use Ratio
Water use ratio for the bottled water industry is the lowest among packaged beverages
The results of a new study released by the International Bottled Water Assn. (IBWA) show that the amount of water used to produce bottled water products is less than all other types of packaged beverages. On average, only 1.39 liters of water are used to produce every 1 liter of finished bottled water.
Inspiration for Innovation
There is a finite amount of available water on our planet, and it is becoming an increasingly scarce resource. As populations increase, significant amounts of water are required to maintain modern life. After the baby boom and massive urbanization of the 20th century, meeting increasing demand while managing water quality expectations became a significant challenge for the water supply industry, which realized that municipal water should be reused more effectively.

NSF Intl. Releases 2013 Water Quality Survey Results
Survey finds consumers do not consider specific contaminants when treating tap water
According to NSF Intl.'s 2013 Water Quality Survey, U.S. consumers are not doing their due diligence before buying a water treatment system. The survey of 942 American adults who use water filtration products found that less than one-fifth (17%) research the contaminants in their local water supply and purchase a water filter that has been tested and certified to reduce those contaminants.
Coalition Urges South, Central Texas to Conserve Water
If drought continues through 2014, south and central Texas could face extreme conditions
The Guadalupe Basin Coalition (GBC) has unanimously endorsed a resolution urging regional water providers and users to conserve water to the maximum extent possible to stretch the available supply should the drought continue into 2014 as predicted by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Climate Prediction Center. The full resolution can be found at www.guadalupebasincoalition.org.
Certification Standards for All
The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region of the globe ranks among the lowest worldwide in terms of availability of renewable freshwater resources per capita. Protecting the limited supply of this vital resource is critical to public health, the environment and the economies of countries in this region. This article will explore the regulatory requirements for Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates, as well as the adoption and recognition of NSF/ANSI Standard 61 in other markets.

Music to Your Ears
By Laura Marrich
It's been a tough scene for our blues guys and gals ever since Club Rhythm & Blues closed its doors for good, taking one of the best open mics in town right along with them. But if there's a silver lining to be found here, it's that artists like Michael Holt are strengthening their own scene from the roots up. Holt and his Hollywood Holt Band host a new weekly open mic just for blues and R&B performers at Ned's Downtown. The Wednesday night showcase is a step up from traditional blues jams, with a nice stage, a full sound setup and professional live mixing. Holt says his motivation springs from when he first cut his blues teeth at open mics under the tutelage of Darin Goldston, front man of the Memphis P. Tails. "They say you've got to give it away if you want to keep it, and this is my way of giving it back."
Blue Note
Piano Man
By Michael Henningsen
By the time he'd reached the ripe old age of 23, Connecticut-bred pianist Kevin Hays had already toured for a year with the Harper Brothers, worked with Joshua Redman and Benny Golson to name but a few, and waxed his first record as a leader, El Matador (Evidence). Considering that most of us spend the period of our "professional" lives between college graduation and the age of 25 spinning in the wind, Hays' comparative beeline toward the pinnacle of post-bop piano craft stands as an even more miraculous feat. And just wait until you hear him play.
Music Magnified
The Slow Signal Fade
By Stephanie Garcia
Wednesday, April 20; UNM Sub Mall (all ages, noon): The Slow Signal Fade's exotic and dark vocals are what make them stand out from the pack. The Los Angeles-based group formed in 2002 and in a short amount of time have managed to craft a polished sound and, from what I've heard, a stellar stage performance.
Music Magnified
Dead Meadow
with Jennifer Gentle, The Outcrowd and Jealous Gods
By Brett Bakker
Wednesday, April 20; Launchpad, 21 and over, 10 p.m.)
Paisley's not dead, it's just discreetly tucked under jackets. This isn't your childhood paisley (Prince) or your dad's (Blues Magoos), but a night of four distinctly different takes on modern psychedelic music.
Dead Meadow is cold funk, a grim and smoky version of the psychedelic experience 20 minutes before it turned narcotic. The flowers aren't still in anyone's hair at this point, although they're just as colorful in the mind.
Sonic Reducer
By Rachel Heisler
Brooke Valentine Chain Letter (Virgin)
She's only 19 and she's co-written her debut CD, Chain Letter. About half of the CD sounds like any number of female R&B/pop artists on the market, but Valentine takes a few risks and rises above the countless others with some mesmerizing and distinguishing hits. Songs like "I Want U Dead" and "Blah Blah Blah" have distinctive beats, while the music is hauntingly aggressive, not blatant slap-you-in-the-face hip hop. And Valentine seems even stronger when accompanied by rappers such as the late Dirt McGirt, Lil' Jon, Big Boi and others. Valentine threads her way from lust to love to hate, and leaves a trail of men battered and beaten behind.

Good news, everybody! This year's Van's Warped Tour is coming through Burque—albeit the festival's given up its lauded positioning at the big amphitheater south of town for the slightly more placid, arcadian and sometimes floaty atmosphere at Balloon Fiesta Park. So, just in case you want to know, the whole schmear goes off on Monday, August 1. The Albuquerque iteration of this ultra-famous yearly event will feature preeminent 'Merican musical acts like Against The Current, Chelsea Grin, Ice Nine Kills, Less Than Jake, Mother Feather, Teenage Bottlerocket and We The Kings. These performances are in addition to a host of other winsome activities designed to lure the youth of the vicinity into the devilish servitude associated with rocanrol music, including a comp ticket for parents (if you're under the age of 18), a hydration station and a totally awesome sponsor and vendor village. Tickets range in price from $37.50-$47.50 and are available through Ticketmaster.
