It was thick, stupid, simple and backward. I had grown up being called all of those by teachers and back then was hit with rulers and thrown into walls and tables to be restrained. It wasn't till South Park came here in the nineties that people began using 'retard' in a nasty manner, not that it coud ever be used in a nice manner, anyway. Retardation does not describe our disability, we are not 'slow'. We have a different mental capacity and process things differently. The word has so much bad history behind it and no one without our disability will truly understand-many of us have suffered so much due to the labels we were given. Feel lucky that come from the UK because it is called learning disability here,but people think they are being denied free speech when we tell them how them saying retarded affects us-so why is it they can mock/abuse the disability of vulnerable people but avoid doing it to gay people or people of different skin colour? About Me:I am 29 and a SO athlete since last year. I am severely autistic, have learning [intellectual] disability and live in a residential centre with people who are like the same.

The two Berthoud High School students who lost both their legs in a two-vehicle crash earlier this year have filed a lawsuit against the maker of the vehicle they had been riding in.
Tyler Carron and Nikko Landeros filed the lawsuit Monday in Denver District Court.
It alleges that the rear doors of Carron's Isuzu Trooper obscured safety lights when they opened the doors to get a spare tire and jack out of the back.
Carron and Landeros lost their legs after another vehicle came up from the rear and hit them while they were behind the SUV on January 15th.
The attorney for the teens says the Trooper's design violates a federal law requiring safety lights to be visible.
Isuzu officials declined comment on the suit.

Posted on 07/08/2009 1:21:09 PM PDT by curth
The gap toothed Alfred E Newman looking bastard apparently feels that since he still has a job and no sponsors left his show that it is safe to start hitting up on Governor Palin again. Top Ten List From Last Night:
Top Ten Messages On Sarah Palin's Answering Machine Top Ten
10-"Hi, It's George W. Bush. Why didn't anyone tell me resigning was an option?"
9-"It's John McCain -- why did I call?"
8-"Mark Sanford here. Ever been to Argentina?"
7-"I'm calling from Geico to see if you want to renew your dogsled insurance"
6-"It's Letterman -- we still cool?"
5-"McCain again. Still no idea why I called"
4-"Hi, it's the dry cleaner. Having trouble getting caribou blood out of your Prada jacket"
3-"Hi, it's Sarah...oops...dialed my own number"
2-"Schwarzenegger here. If you want a job, California could use a new governor"
1-"Hey, it's McCain. Who would've thought you'd retire before I did?"
Here is the video , if you can stomach it:
He also told numerous "jokes" about her in his monologue :
Again if you can stomach him. The Palin stuff starts midway through.
(Excerpt) Read more at lateshow.cbs.com ...
Sorry, the transcript is enough. Letterman's problem is simple: he is not funny anymore.
**** letterpuke.
That sleazy SOB was NEVER funny!
Actually, that list seems in pretty good fun. I don't find anything cruel or objectionable on it. Mostly, it seems to poke fun at McCain.
We can't go around being offended by EVERYTHING involving Sarah.
He's a unfunny, unflattering SOB.
Don't see anything terribly offensive there, nor is it very funny.
Not worth the time to read!!
No doubt, Letterman is a bastard, but this is rather light compared to the crap her gave her last month.
No doubt, Letterman is a bastard, but this is rather light compared to the crap he gave her last month.
Always the sexual angle. Letterman's a perv.
"We cant go around being offended by EVERYTHING involving Sarah."
I agree.
Now that's funny!
I actually thought it was somewhat amusing, and he wasn't offensive, IMO.
Anyone have his ratings, have they dropped?
Because MSM are gap tooth fans. And, the mob gap tooth plays to are loony, brainless leftists anyway. And the boss of the network is described as such as well. So, the lovefest continues. If any conservatives need a laugh bad enough to watch Letterman (who is really not all that) then shame on them - get a life.
The vile nature of everything said about Sarah Palin is truly disturbing. I can't quite recall Jonathan Edwards receiving this treatment after his team lost in '04.
....and the irony is that if you hadn't posted it here nobody would have known.
He is a vicious slimy little minded leftist whose opinion means NOTHING! Right, he is not funny!
wtf?? Have we entirely lost our sense of humor?
There is nothing offensive or inappropriate (or funny!!) in that list.
Gov. Palin is/was a national political figure. She WILL be satirized. Get over it.
Save your outrage for the really inappropriate stuff (like a few weeks back....) Getting all bent out of shape over this will only PROVE what the lib's always claim ...
Well, CBS is still blocked from my televisions and it looks like that'll be the status quo in my house for a very long time. Screw Letterman and screw his employer!
Not too funny, but nothing outrageous, really. Number three is the only shot at Palin and its not even a spitball.
The difference between this list and the previous one is that this list is actually humorous and doesn't read like he just wants to slam her, plus you are right, it takes shots at McCain and they are entertaining.
What he said was not offensive, the fact that he just cannot let things be is offensive. Again of all the things going on in the world, if I'm not mistaken, Joe Biden let loose with several of his Bidenisms this week, why must he again put her up for ridicule?
If he had one ounce of decency in him, he could have just commented on her resignation and wished her and her family well. But he didn't.
Other than the Mark Sanford jibe, those were all within the realm of common (if unfunny) political humor. We shouldn't get our panties in a wad when this fool merely pops off at Sarah. We should hold our fire until he attacks her children. Would he dare tell a sexual joke about Barry or Michelle? About Nancy Pelosi, Barney Frank or Henry Waxman? Of course not!! But we can't stop that. If he dares to "go there" about the daughters or Trig, then, yes, we should contact CBS, the FCC and his sponsors, but not cry "wolf" every time he reveals himself to be a cad and a evil sot.
I am with Palin, hook, line and sinker. I find Letterman unfunny, don't watch him and wouldn't mind paying the fine for the privilege of breaking his nose,.
However... inn this transcript... there is no there, there. No place to go and she can take this stupidity.
Lettermannn is likely looking for more air... he's under water and going down.
Letterwoman could floss with a ski-rope.
Who is bent out of shape?
Must agree with number 5; I didn't watch the show - and never will - but, unlike the last time, the top ten were well within bounds for a public person.
At least he didn't attack the kids this time.
Not yet. Last night he just dipped his toe in the water to see how hot it is.
That's so true. I thought it was pretty funny, too.
Unfortunately, they've gone up.
O Rly? I'd read that in the short term when it was happening, they went up but most expected them to drop.
With everyone in reruns last week, and several still in reruns this week, the late night rating probably won't be out again until next week. But, before last week, Letterman was still enjoying a marginal lead over O'Brien in total viewers, with O'Brien leading quite comfortably in the more coveted 18-29 year-old demographic, for what it's worth.
I pity you, Letterman. You really are a classless asshole.
Was he ever funny? Not in my book!
The thing is, Letterman has already overstepped with regards to Palin and should tread lightly. His top ten list and monologue jokes could have easily been written to tease someone else. I'll bet big money that he hasn't ripped Biden or Zerobama in a similar fashion.
He's a partisan hack and doesn't deserve the benefit of the doubt until he's earned it by mocking the left in the same way he's gone after those on the right.
OK, #8 was a bit funny, but at Sanford's expense.
The rest aren't even jokes. Or they're the jokes of a 7-year-old old. Really: the dry cleaner?
If I misread your intent - sorry.
Actually, I think they are pretty fun, come on folks, lighten up.
Hello, it's Letterman, we still cool ....
Very funny
See post 26. I am not offended. I just feel he should lay off her. If it was one joke, ok. A whole top ten list and several jokes in the monologue to me is a bit much and just shows that the guy will never learn his lesson and that someone must have held a gun to his head to get him to apologize.
I posted the whole list because it was posted on his site and to spare anyone who can't stand the guy from having to watch him .
The HATE Show with David Bitterman.
He hates Sarah because he obviously never got the good looking girl. Take a look at the GUY he married haha. I hope the boy isn't heckled because he is a BASTARD haha.
Adding the "haha" makes it comedy and immune from criticism.
What's the big deal? Are we now professional outrage artists like the left?
Seems to be mostly silly stuff. Nothing degrading — and actually is kind of the sort of "tough satire" that the comics use against their hero Obama. Nothing funny, nothing offensive either.
He was definitely over the line with the previous vicious attacks. But this is nothing.
What "benefit of the doubt"? Is Gov Palin now some type of untouchable? Get a grip!
And, just so that you know what my position is on Letterman's attacks on her kids was - you can read my opinion here: David Letterman - Stalker & Extortionist.

Man killed in Tuesday crash
BELLE ROSE A man died after being hit by a car Tuesday while trying to cross La. 1 in Belle Rose, State Police said.
Lauren Talbot, 27, of Belle Rose was trying to walk across the highway just north of La. 1000 about 6:30 p.m. when he was hit by a 1997 Chrysler Cirrus driven by Alvin Phillip, 60, of Belle Rose, police said.
Talbot was taken to the hospital where he later died of his injuries. Phillip, the only person in the Cirrus, was not hurt.
Phillip hadnt been drinking, according to results of a breath-alcohol test. Results of a blood-alcohol test performed on Talbot arent yet available.
The crash is under investigation.
Car trip results in arrest
THIBODAUX A quick friendship that sprang up between two Thibodaux men may have gone sour Monday when one of the two borrowed the others car to go to a nearby grocery store and was gone for more than 13 hours.

When Dunaway, 23, hadnt reappeared by 7:30 p.m., the man called Thibodaux Police, who notified authorities in neighboring parishes.
Police had no luck finding Dunaway or the car until the following day. Terrebonne deputies pulled the Caprice, which was headed south on La. 24, over about 3:45 a.m.
The man told officers he first met Dunaway, who lives at 1134 Tiger Drive, on Sunday. .
Dunaway is charged with unauthorized use of a moveable and outstanding warrants for flight from an officer, improper registration, noise nuisance and switched license plate.
Dunaway is being held at the Lafourche Parish Detention Center on a $1,600 bond.

text: Matte Lip Color is rated 4.258641975308642 out of 5 by 1,620. Rated 5 out of 5 by Bernie90 from Wow I had low expectations before I swatched it. However when I did swatch it, I was impressed by how easily it glided on and the pigment! Date published: 2016-07-19 Rated 5 out of 5 by sav1175 from Love the color! I bought praline this a little while back and love it! It looks a lot like Mac's colour soar, but for a much better price. Although it does look bad on dry cracked lips so I put gloss over it or put Chapstick on under it. Overall great product! Date published: 2016-07-19 Rated 4 out of 5 by Chihuahua MaMa from Matte lip color Good product overall. Purchased Tea Rose and Cranberry based on other customers reviews and faves. Cranberry is definitely a repurchase again. Tea Rose color not so pretty. Would rename Tea Rose to Cyanotic. Look for yourself on my photos. FYI no other facial or lip make up is on, just the matte lip color alone. Did apply a lot of product to obtain a change in natural lip tone. Thank you Elf for this matte lip option. All your primers and matte products are good and economical. The sparkly/Dewey makeup products make the aging face Like a clown. Nice matte option. Date published: 2016-07-19 Rated 1 out of 5 by Nunyaa from Only meant for fare skin I bought the natural matte lipstick and instead of making my lips looks all cute and pink it made them look ashy maybe it's because I have a have medium toned skinned, when I tried it on my lighter friend it gave her the soft pink lips Date published: 2016-07-17 Rated 5 out of 5 by CaitlynWK from I can't believe it's $3 I was so excited to try this out after reading great reviews, and let me tell you, those reviews were right! This lip pencil feels like nothing is on your lips other than a light chapstick, and the color is amazing. I have pale skin and was worried that it would be a bit too dark for me, but it isn't at all. It has the perfect amount of pink to be a day to day color, but enough purple to make it feel like an evening color as well. It will definitely have to be reapplied throughout the day, but at this price, it just can't be beat. Date published: 2016-07-16 Rated 1 out of 5 by JooJ from Defected item This is a third time buying from elf. Last two purchases I was satisfied for every products. Sometimes items I want are out of stock. That's only I can complain so far. But this time I got this defected lipstick. Almost half lipstick is crushed into cap and left half is even broken meh..... Plz make a safe delivery next time Date published: 2016-07-16 Rated 5 out of 5 by Maverick from This is by far the best lipstick out there!! Stays on and is non-drying! Date published: 2016-07-16 Rated 5 out of 5 by jaam12 from Amazing I bought the shade 'Tea Rose' when this first came out, it was the first matte lip product that I actually liked and it did not dry my lips out at all. It is perfect. I wear it everyday Date published: 2016-07-14 Rated 5 out of 5 by Hippiechick0311 from Great product. Long lasting, great color and coverage. Very similar to a MAC lipstick that I use. Date published: 2016-07-11 Rated 4 out of 5 by seki9638 from Pretty colours and easy application I got the shade Catwalk Orange and well, I wasn't expecting such a bright colour. It's a very pretty colour though, more on the coral side I would say, and goes perfectly for the summer time. Also is easy to apply since the tip is small. Date published: 2016-07-06 Rated 5 out of 5 by KingKylie from AMAZING❤❤❤ I got this a while ago in the shade of natural. It was so gorgeous and it is really matte. It doesn't dry out your lips and make them look fuller more gorgeous. Date published: 2016-07-06 Rated 5 out of 5 by Lisslap4 from Great pigmentation I love the pigmentation on these, I own several shades. Date published: 2016-07-02 Rated 2 out of 5 by A J R from SICKLY SWEET! I loved the color, but it tastes like aspartame! Why so sweet? YUCK! :( Date published: 2016-07-01 Rated 4 out of 5 by Didi11 from Really nice I bought a nude colour and I love it. Its very natural and I love the matte finish. A bit drying but most matte lipsticks are. Date published: 2016-07-01 Rated 4 out of 5 by alipaydli from Similar to nars price is fantastic! I bought this a week ago I love it so much I have some lip pencils from nars and this is so similar! Date published: 2016-06-30 Rated 4 out of 5 by Rae_ from Cute, but not as much pigmentation as I was expecting (I got natural and tea rose, and they're not really visible on my lips much.) I may go back and try to purchase a darker color, however. The product itself is pretty good (and long-lasting!) My own fault by underestimating my own lip tone. I'd recommend to put on something to moisturize your lips first, as this can be pretty drying. Date published: 2016-06-30 Rated 5 out of 5 by emilyromeiro from love it!! although it doesn't have a matte finish (or just doesn't work on me) still pretty amazing! and only $3 !!!! Date published: 2016-06-30 Rated 4 out of 5 by leahrach from Tea Rose Just received this and it was the product I was most excited to try. I love the colour and how it's matte, but it feels a little bit sticky on the lips. Excited to try more of these! Date published: 2016-06-29 Rated 5 out of 5 by Sami J from I may have just picked the wrong shades.... I bought four of these shades: natural, tea rose, praline, and nearly nude. I love the formula and pigmentation, but none of the shades really suited me. I'd love to buy more, but would be afraid they wouldn't suit me either. Date published: 2016-06-29 Rated 5 out of 5 by Faustus from Great colour for a good price I'm picky about my lipsticks, but I can't express how much I love this product! The colour is fantastic, it lasts for a long time, and it's very easy to apply. The only real con to it is it breaks off easily, but even with that, I fully recommend this to anyone looking for a fun, every day lipstick. Date published: 2016-06-28 Rated 5 out of 5 by Kerisha from Such a great value! I typically only wear M.A.C lipsticks, and Ruby Woo is a staple in my wardrobe. I purchased this yesterday, and I love it. The color is rich, it stays on long, and it is not as drying and flaky as M.A.C Matte lipsticks. Such a great value, I will be trying it out in other colors. Date published: 2016-06-28 Rated 4 out of 5 by GrayAsDay from Stellar product for the price! Just picked this up in the shade "natural" and god was I impressed. Applied like a dream and provided smooth, creamy pigment that looked great. I love this color as well. As a girl who cant get enough of her mauves it was great to find one that I could wear as an everyday color, even to school.I didn't find this product to be super pigmented, however, or a true matte. More of a demi matte, persay. This is fine by me, not a true complaint, you should just know before you buy it what it really is.I also immediatly thought this could be a dupe for the Bite Beauty Lip Crayons, what with the same packaging and design. My thoughts were confirmed when I tried it, the same beautifuly creamy and flawless application, sharpener in the bottom, and thin pencil for precise application. Save your money and pick up these babies! Date published: 2016-06-28 Rated 5 out of 5 by hugsnhats from I know why the Tea Rose is Out of Stock. It's because it's an awesome nude color. It's a pink more than a brown nude. It's so creamy yet it has a matte finish so, it's lasts a long time. Nice to have a 2 n 1 product, lip liner and lipstick. Date published: 2016-06-28 Rated 4 out of 5 by Cookie81 from Perfect Shade I recently bought this and it's a great product. It's very smooth and the perfect nude shade for me! The only con is that it settles into my lip creases, and feels a bit dry at first but turns out creamy.. Date published: 2016-06-23 Rated 4 out of 5 by thatssosab from Amazing, long lasting color! I bought this quite awhile ago and wore it almost everyday to school, for parties, special occasions, and just everything! Whenever i need a little switch up color on my lips i grabbed this instantly! I bought the color natural and it is no regret!!!1! much love for elf! Date published: 2016-06-23 Rated 4 out of 5 by Kateemariaa from Love!! I was new to wearing any lip color at all when I first bought Tea Rose and fell in love. Purple is one of my colors and it has a nice purple tint, while still feeling natural. I wear it to work almost daily, and if I go out at night I just mix in a vibrant purple color to add drama. Next I bought the Dash of Pink because I was feeling girly and summery, and this one is super bright on me! For some reason this one was really drying unlike Tea Rose. I don't know if it was just that one particular tube or if the color is more drying as a whole, I don't really know how that works. ha. I just bought the cranberry color and i'm in love. Today is the first time wearing it, and it is not drying at all! The color is beautiful and after drinking a whole cup of coffee, there was minimal transfer, no bleeding, and I haven't had to touch it up like I usually do after drinking. And I was being brave (read: late for work) and didn't wear any lip liner with it. So color me impressed (: Date published: 2016-06-23 Rated 3 out of 5 by NessaJay from Great color. Bad packaging. I keep this in my bag all the time. Doesn't feel heavy and lasts a long time without a retouch. My one problem is the packaging. The lip color dances around the over sized opening and breaks off. I have had to transfer it to a little pot and use it with a lip brush. Date published: 2016-06-21 Rated 5 out of 5 by Lemab1 from Love them! I almost have all of them, and have to say I love them all, but my faves are praline, mulberry maven , and mixing berre sorbet with nearly nude( put the darker one around to line and fade in to the lighter in the middle)♥ Date published: 2016-06-19 Rated 2 out of 5 by julesschmoolz from I was looking for a nude color to match and even out my natural lip color. I found the nearly nude matte lip color to be a peachy pink that was too light/white/chalky for me. I just ordered praline to see if this darker color will be more of what I'm looking for.

Infrastructure. Innovation. Technology.
The TOP-IX Consortium has been actively working on several fronts for over ten years now: managing the Internet Exchange infrastructure (the reason for its initial foundation in 2002); running the Development Program, which has been providing support for technological innovation projects since 2006; and the Streaming platform, which enabled the Consortium to act as official provider of the 2006 Berlinale Film Festival.
TOP-IX has in recent years dealt with some key issues in its field. Cloud Computing in 2008 and Open Data in 2010 – where TOP-IX helped set up dati.piemonte.it, the first Italian portal dedicated to open data – are just two such examples. Similarly, Big Data in 2011 led to the training course "Big Dive" and Social Innovation (2014).

Nice ART
perfect gray story!
Well done.
Unique story told in a wonderful way. I personally love the whispering, it adds an ominous presence to this short. Your use of black and whites along with the rough shadings adds an even more uneasy feel. All around it is well told and I really enjoyed this.
Absolutely stunning!
As a HUGE horror fan, I've been waiting for something to raise the goosebumps for quite awhile now, and this submission succeeded in doing so. The voicework is nothing short of haunting (loved the fact it was whispered), and the animation captured a sort of fairytale/gothic atmosphere straight out of a Hammer Studios film.
You've just earned a fan for life with this piece. Now I'm off to check out the website, and your other submissions. Keep up the excellent work!
Truly Amazing
This is one of the best peices i've viewed on here, is the wording original. The movies compliments the poem so well the art work is good and holds it's own against the well spun words.
Nice story, bad narration
The art and the story being told were interesting and pretty good, but the narration is on the poor side. A majority of the issue was the whisper. It would have been great if you had told it in a voice befitting a lost child, instead of kids trying to tell ghost stories without being caught up late.

Ever wonder what depression feels like? Here's a hint: Take a pillowcase full of rocks and strap it to the top of your head. Now put on a dark pair of sunglasses — indoors. Leave those things on for about a week. Until you begin to see the world through a dark film that never gets lighter, and it takes a very conscious effort to hold your head up. That is what depression feels like on a good day.

The general objective of this paper is to describe the way the authors have been relating general system theory (GST) to practice. The authors applied GST to design a methodology for software development, first. Then, by means of the experience/knowledge learned from applying the methodology to specific systems, a continuous redesigning process started, which simultaneously generalized the methodologies and increased its complexity adding new modules for an increasing diversity of diverse-tasks needed for different systems/situations. The methodological kernel increased it generality and the sub-methodological modules increased its details. This paved the way for a general systems methodology which, when including cognitive/thinking method would return to the theoretical realm, i.e. to a methodological theory which, in turn, would pave the way to theoretical methodology

Managing Macular Degeneration
Macular degeneration (MD) is an eye disorder affecting more than 13 million Americans, and is generally considered to be irreversible. In fact, more people are affected by MD than by glaucoma and cataracts combined. It is the leading cause of blindness in those over the age of 55, with a new case of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) diagnosed every three minutes. (Age-related macular degeneration is a term used for the disorder when it affects people over the age of 60.) The cause of MD is not known, but the condition runs in families, and it likely has a genetic component. It affects an equal number of women and men, but seems to be more common among Caucasians than African-Americans.

Macular degeneration refers to the breakdown of the macula - the central portion of the retina. The function of the retina is to receive visual images, to partially analyze them and transmit the information to the brain. The macula contains the most concentrated collection of light-sensing nerves in the retina and is responsible for producing the most critical aspects of vision. There is a rich supply of blood vessels that carry oxygen and important nutrients to the retina that are required for healthy vision, and disruption of this vasculature can be a contributing factor in MD. The retina has no pain nerve fibers, therefore most diseases that affect the retina do not cause pain.
There are actually two forms of MD. The first, atrophic or dry MD, results from a gradual breakdown and degeneration of critical photoreceptors in the eye that provide night vision and visual acuity. The second, exudative or wet MD, is caused by leaks in the blood vessels of the retina. The bleeding causes scarring and retinal tissue death. About 80 to 85 percent of those with MD have the atrophic form; but most cases of severe vision loss can be attributed to the exudative form. About 10 percent of those with dry MD will also develop the wet form.
Causes and Symptoms
Although there are no definitive answers as to what specifically causes MD, there are a few emerging theories that may help explain what circumstances lead to the problem. Since the macula depends for its healthy functioning on one of the highest rates of blood flow through its blood vessels, anything that interferes with this blood flow can cause the macula to malfunction.
The following dietary or lifestyle choices can reduce the supply of oxygen and vital nutrients to the retina and eventually lead to the death of cells in the retina and macula:
- Smoking can decrease blood supply by causing a narrowing of the blood vessels and a thickening of the blood, much the same as in a heart attack or stroke.
- High saturated-fat diets can cause plaque buildup along blood vessel walls, including the macular vessels, which impedes blood flow.
- A lack of antioxidants, such as vitamin C, vitamin E and lutein may increase the ability of plaque to stick to the blood vessel walls and promote the damage of the tissue.
With macular degeneration there is typically a loss of vision in both eyes. The initial symptom may be a distortion of vision in one eye, causing straight lines to appear wavy. Eventually, loss of central vision worsens, making it difficult to see at long distances, read up close, see faces clearly or distinguish colors. Peripheral vision (what you see out of the corners of your eyes) is not affected.
Recommended Lifestyle Changes
- Don't smoke and avoid exposure to second-hand smoke.
- Protect your eyes. Be sure to wear sunglasses that contain UV protection.
- Follow a diet that is very low in saturated fat and rich in antioxidants, focusing on vegetables, fruit, and legumes including soy, whole grains and fish.
- Eat antioxidant-rich berries, especially blueberries, frequently.
- Increase your intake of antioxidants such as vitamins C and E, lutein and zinc.
Nutrition and Supplements
Try to choose foods or take supplements that contain vitamin C, vitamin E and lutein, as well as zinc. Vitamin C-rich foods include citrus fruits, melons, tomatoes, potatoes and broccoli. You can get vitamin E from soybeans, greens, fish, wheat germ, nuts and seeds. Dietary sources of zinc are legumes (peas, dried beans, garbanzos/chickpeas, black-eyed peas, lentils and soy products) and whole grains. The carotenoid pigment lutein is found naturally in spinach, kale, collard greens, romaine lettuce and peas. Other protective compounds are the red and purple pigments found in berries and other fruit. Eat berries, especially blueberries, often. You can also get these pigments into your diet with supplements of bilberry, grape seed extract or pine bark extract. My recommendations for daily vitamin E are to take 400-800 IU of natural mixed tocopherols, or at least 80 mg of natural mixed tocopherols and tocotrienols. People under 40 should take 400 IUs a day; people over 40, 800 IUs.

The authors present a new fast algorithm along with its systolic array implementation for computing the N-point discrete cosine transform (DCT), where N is a power of two. The architecture requires log2 N multipliers and can evaluate one complete N-point DCT (i.e., N transform samples) every N clock cycles. Due to the features of regularity and modularity, it is well suited to VLSI implementation. As compared to existing systolic DCT designs with the same throughput performance, the proposed one involves much less hardware complexity

Fresh Fruit Butter
From EatingWell: May/June 2009
Fruit butter are made by cooking down the fruit mixture until thick and sticky instead of adding pectin to set the mixture as you do with jam. Spread on whole-grain toast or stir into plain yogurt. Butters are supposed to be smooth and well, buttery, so we prefer to peel stone fruit, such as apricots, nectarines, peaches, and apples and pears. If you're making a butter with "seedy" berries, such as blackberries, raspberries or even blueberries, you can puree the butter and pass it through a sieve for the smoothest result. Try the combination of blueberries with lime juice and zest or plums with orange juice and zest.
Makes: About 2 cups

Nutrition Profile
Diabetes appropriate | Low calorie | Low carbohydrate | Low cholesterol | Low saturated fat | Heart healthy | Healthy weight | Gluten free |View Our Nutrition Guidelines »
- 6 cups prepared fresh fruit, peeled if desired (see Tip)
- 1 cup water
- 1/2-1 cup granulated sugar , or brown sugar (see Note)
- 1 tablespoon freshly grated lemon, lime or orange zest , (optional)
- 1/4 cup lemon, lime or orange juice , (optional)
- Combine fruit, water and sugar to taste in a Dutch oven; add citrus zest and juice if using. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to maintain a lively simmer and cook, mashing the fruit and stirring occasionally at first and then often as it thickens, until the mixture is very thick, 20 minutes to 1 hour (depending on the type of fruit). To test doneness, put a spoonful of fruit butter on a plate. If no liquid seeps from the edges, it's done. Return to a simmer to thicken more if necessary. For very smooth fruit butter, puree in a food processor or blender, then strain and push the mixture through a sieve before storing.
- If freezing or refrigerating, ladle the fruit butter into clean canning jars to within 1/2 inch of the rim. Wipe rims clean. Cover with lids. Let the jars stand at room temperature until cool before refrigerating or freezing. Or process in a water bath to store at room temperature (see Tip).
Tips & Notes
- Make Ahead Tip: Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks, in the freezer for up to 1 year or at room temperature for up to 1 year if processed in a water bath. | Equipment: Two 8-ounce canning jars
- Tip: How to Prep & Measure Fruit—Berries: Remove stems; hull strawberries. Measure whole. Cherries: Remove stems and pits; halve. Measure halves. Peaches, Nectarines & Plums: Peel if desired. Cut into 1/2-inch pieces; discard pits. Measure pieces. Apples, Pears & other fruit: Peel if desired. Quarter, remove seeds and cut into 1/2-inch pieces. Measure pieces.
- To peel stone fruit, dip them in boiling water for about 1 minute to loosen their skins. Let cool slightly, then remove the skins with a paring knife.
- Note: 3/4 cup maple syrup (or honey) or 1/2-1 cup Splenda Granular can be used in place of 1 cup sugar.
- Tip: Processing in a boiling water bath ensures safe storage at room temperature for up to a year. For step-by-step pictures and instructions, go to eatingwell.com/kitchentips.

This invention relates to parallel cable bus of the type to be connected between very high speed computers and more particularly to a parallel cable bus wherein the wires fan out and yet all the wires within a flat cable bus have equal path lengths to reduce clock skew.
High speed computers often use parallel flat cable bus comprising a plurality of conductors arranged side by side in a common plane spaced and insulated from each other in a ribbon of dielectric material. In addition it is desirable that the cables go from a narrow, high density area to a wide transmission area. The wide cable area can maximize the signal propagation characteristics and increase the manufacturing yield of the flat cables. In the prior art generally these flat cables go from a broad terminal end to a narrow transmission section and then back to being broad at the other terminating end. The purpose of the broadening is to have connector pads and make easy access to connectors. The connectors at the terminating end would be roughly ten conductors per inch. In an effort to reduce the space taken up by the connectors at the terminal end, especially for large high speed computers requiring multiple harnesses, is desirable that the terminating end width be as small as possible and these terminating ends are made even closer than the middle transmission section. The transmission sections are wider so as to prevent resistive losses and other characteristic problems. This density at the terminating ends may be on the order of 100 conductors per inch. The conventional manner in which these cables are made is a fan-out pattern as shown in the prior art in FIG. 1. The wires on the outside of the cable are longer than the central wires. Specifically for one inch connector widths to a three inch transmission cable the maximum difference is 0.82 inch. At expected future signal propagation velocities, this results in a time skew of 130 picoseconds. In a typical processor/memory/processor loop of a supercomputer this is multiplied by four to six consecutive flat cable buses. An example of such a system is described in application Ser. No. 176,495 filed Mar. 31, 1988 and entitled "High Performance Computer Package". The accumulated differential distance clock skew becomes a significant portion of the two to four nanosecond machine cycle that would be necessary for this type of computer.
In accordance with one embodiment of the present invention the differential distance clock skew is eliminated by high performance flat cable comprising a plurality of conductors arranged side by side in a common plane with a flat dielectric body covering said conductors and separating said conductors. The conductors within the body being relatively close at one of the remote ends and fanning out from said one end. The conductors are parallel to each other at the terminal ends and are arranged between the terminal ends to be of equal path length.
FIG. 1 is a sketch of a prior art flexible flat cable with a fan-out pattern which has unequal path lengths;
FIG. 2 is a view of a flexible flat cable of the type used in a harness in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention;
FIG. 3 is a view taken along the lines 3--3 of FIG. 2; and
FIG. 4 is a plan view of a flexible flat cable of the type used in a harness in accordance with a second embodiment of the present invention.
Referring to FIG. 1 there is illustrated a sketch of the prior art fan-out flat cable 10 where the outboard conductor wires are substantially longer than the inner wires. For example, the central wire 11 may be six inches long with the parallel segments at each terminal end being half an inch (0.5 in.) long. The central section 11a of the center wire 11 is 3 inches long with both transition sections being an inch on either end. The transition sections 16a, 16b and 17a and 17b for the outermost wires 16 and 17 is 1.41 inches making the outermost wires 16 and 17 have a total maximum increase of 0.82 129 inches over the central wire 11. At expected signal propagation velocities, this results in a time skew of 130 picoseconds. In a typical processor/memory/processor loop of a supercomputer type configuration as mentioned previously this could be multiplied by four to six consecutive flat buses and the accumulated clock skew could become a significant portion in a two to four nanosecond machine cycle. This represents the problem for which the present invention overcomes.
Referring to FIG. 2 there is illustrated a flat cable bus 20 according to one embodiment of the present invention wherein the conductors 21 through 27 are parallel to each other at the terminal ends 28 and 29 and the arrangement of these conductors therebetween is spread out to accommodate and maximize the signal propagation characteristics as with the prior art cable in FIG. 1 but without the unequal length conductors. Cable 20 may be of commonly known type of flat conductor cable in which the individual conductors 21-27 are contained in plastic film material 19, such as Mylar (polyethyleneterephthalate). See FIG. 3. Cable 20 has one end 28 which is narrow and adapted to be connected, for example to a printed circuit board, and a second end 29 which is also narrow and adapted to connect to a circuit board. The number of conductors in the cable for a specific harnessing situation is equal to the number of positions on each row of a printed circuit board. The conductors are relatively thin or narrow between adjacent portions and remain separated by the plastic dielectric material. The differential distance clock skew is eliminated in the diagonal transition sections where the conductors are angled at 45 degrees as illustrated in FIG. 2. FIG. 2 shows a one to three to one fan-out design where the width of the line expands from one inch at the terminal ends 28 and 29 to three inches in the middle or in the main transmission line portion which is represented by the one inch length in the sketch illustrating the 6.82 equal length lines. The middle or main transmission section 32 can be any desired length to accommodate the need. In the diagonal section 30 nearest end 28 the leftmost conductor 21 has no bend and is of minimum length (2 inches) and the rightmost conductor 27 has the most length and the longest diagonal portion (2.82 inches). Conductors 22 through 26 have increasingly longer diagonal sections and longer lengths. In the diagonal section 21 nearest end 29 the leftmost conductor 21 is of maximum added length (longest diagonal portion of 2.82 inches) which equals the diagonal portion of conductor 27 in section 30. Further, conductor 27 in transition section 31 is straight and of minimum length (2 inches). The middle conductor 24 has equal diagonal portions (1.41 inches) in sections 30 and 31 that total up to the diagonal portion of either conductor 21 or 27. The diagonal portions in section 30 progressively increase for conductors 22 through 27 and the diagonal portions in section 31 progressively decrease for conductors 22 through 26 such that all of the conductors 21-27 are of equal electrical length. In this way the conductor lengths are the same. For example, the left-most conductor 21 line remains straight for the first 3.5 inches (one inch representing the main transmission line section which may be any number of feet) then extends on a 2.82 inch diagonal to a half inch portion at end 29. The total length of conductor 21 with the midsection being at the common one inch is 6.82 inches. Likewise the other conductors 22 through 27 have the same total length. Conductor 27 has the 2.82 inch diagonal portions in sections 30 and straight in the other sections. The middle conductor 24 has half of the diagonal portion in each section 30 and 31. Conductor 22 has the shortest diagonal portion (other than zero) in section 30 and conductor 26 has the same diagonal length section in section 31. The remaining length to provide the total of 6.82 inches is in the opposite section. Likewise this is true for conductors 23 and 25 as shown.
Referring to FIG. 4 there is illustrated, a design wherein the fan-out is at only one end of a cable 39 wherein there is a wide terminal end 40 such as 3 inches for example and a narrow terminal end 32 such as one inch wherein the conductors at terminal 40 are widely spaced and parallel and the conductors at the terminal 32 are closely spaced and parallel. In the arrangement of FIG. 4 the conductors are again embedded in a plastic mylar tape with the conductors parallel to each other and spaced by the dielectric and it may be a flexible medium. In this path length adjustment the conductors are again equalized with the conductor 41 having a length of 6.82 inches with a 45 degree diagonal section 2.82 inches long. The conductor 47 at the opposite side has a bi-directional section of a 45 degree bend, a 90 degree bend and 45 degree bend to provide a v-loop where each of the legs are 1.41 inches. The central conductor 44 has an asymmetrical v-loop with 2.11 inches in the diagonal nearest end 32 and only 0.7 inch nearest end 40. The v-loops in conductors 42 to 47 total 2.82 inches and get increasingly shorter at end 32 and longer at end 40 with 90 degree bend between legs of the bend as shown in FIG. 4.
While the disclosed invention describes certain cables and dimensions and angles of bend of the conductors, changes in construction will occur to those skilled in the art and various apparently different modifications may be made without departing from the scope of the invention.
The matter set forth in the accompanying drawings is being offered by way of illustration only. The density may be for example 100 conductors per inch at the narrow end to 100 conductors to three inches. Only seven is shown for illustration purposes.

wow u did this for ur health class!!!
its an amazing work dude
Thank you! I still look back fondly on this one :)
I didn't read that this was something you did for health class. Edutainment is such a funny word. I still wasn't expecting something so serious from you. I love this because it really did stick to its message that steroids were bad. I'm so glad there's a drug we actually got something right on. There are an infinite number of misconceptions about every other drug.
It really was a heartwarming cartoon. The sprite work was as masterful as ever. The idea of the bit powerup was brilliant. I certainly hope you got a good grade in your class. You got a good one here!
Well, the full story behind how the presentation went is... after all my work, the TV set this was displayed on didn't play the sound! The entire class watched it totally mute, but... it still got huge laughs out of everyone. I couldn't believe it! I'm pretty sure I did get an A. Wow, this was... sophomore year in high school!
Everything is great, However, Mega Man X is Dr. Light greatest and powerfulest creation, How could he lose to a bee?
Also, didn't anyone else thought the Free cookies were drugs?
NOT MegaZilla,But Hyper Megaman from Marvel VS Capcom
Is that... Earthbound in the background for the hospital?

AbstractThis Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project will exploit advances in sensor technologies and recently approved IEEE 1451 family of standards to design and develop tools to create highly autonomous fault-tolerant distributed sensor networks with plug-and play capabilities. This multi-phase effort will enable diagnosis of faulty sensors and reconfiguration of the network in real time to ensure that the control of the manufacturing process can continue with accurate information in the presence of sensor faults. Currently sensor reliability issues are not considered when the systems are designed and developed although the reliability of the information collected and interpreted is highly dependent on the sensors used and sensor networks employed. Existence of appropriate technologies in the areas of sensors, computing, communication, and standards suggest that it is an opportune time to develop such networks. The innovative feature of the proposed effort will be the IEEE 1451-based architecture, algorithms for the distributed fault-tolerant sensor networks that will enable plug-and-play capability, and the development of a new member in the IEEE 1451 standards that will address reliability issues of the sensor networks. The proposed effort on enabling software tools for highly reliable sensor networks to ensure that the manufacturing processes do not continue with incorrect process settings would enable U.S. to maintain its leadership in the manufacturing sector. The reliability of sensors is a critical issue in thin-film deposition systems where they are typically exposed to harsh chemical and thermal environments, but no substantial work has been done in the area of fault-tolerant sensor networks for these systems. Although no formal study has been conducted to quantify production losses in thin-film industry the number is expected to be in the high millions. The proposed IEEE 1451-based tools for fault-tolerant networks will be highly useful in a wide range of disciplines. However, the initial target market will be the barrier and TCO coatings, such as flexible displays, followed by thin-film in general and semiconductor industry. Successful demonstration on these systems will create opportunities in other markets.
