Eugene / Office
When it comes to spending long days in the office, flexibility is key. If you're stuck in the same position for hours on end, you'll experience cramps, back pain, and fatigue. Whether you're a University of Oregon student or a young working professional of Eugene, you want to ensure that your daily routine doesn't hurt your health. Fortunately for you, Relax The Back is here with a solution! Our ergonomic office chairs, desks, and more make it easy to upgrade your office workstation to one that will help you get the most out of your day. If you want to add comfort to your workday, there's only one thing to do: invest in an ergonomic office.
Read more.
Pain Be GoneRecent studies have shown that the average American spends almost 56 hours a week sitting. If you fit in that category, you probably suffer from back pain and cramps as a result. The body isn't made to stay in a sitting position for that long. Prolonged sitting places pressure on the spine that restricts blood flow. This pressure and lowered blood flow then can cause debilitating aches and pains in other parts of your body, from the neck and shoulders all the way to your legs and feet. Ergonomic workstations nourish the spine, conforming gently to its shape and preventing undue stress to the vertebrae. With less aches and pain, you'll find yourself enjoying happier and more productive days almost immediately!
Our Favorite TipsOur product consultants are well-versed in the latest ergonomic office essentials and would love to help you find your perfect matches. Here are some of their favorite tips to help you experience a more productive and comfortable day:
• Stand Up to Stretch Every 30 Minutes – The human body doesn't perform very well when it's stuck in a chair for long durations, so standing up to stretch or walk helps to relieve tension and prevent muscle aches. Standing desks make it easy to avoid prolonged sitting by working from a standing position — you'll be amazed at how big of a difference it makes to your overall alertness and energy levels!
• Invest in a Great Chair – Sitting is unavoidable, but even shorter durations of sitting in an uncomfortable chair can cause lasting pain and make it harder to stay positive while you work. Ergonomic office chairs that promote healthy posture prevent many of the aches and pains associated with sitting while making for a more enjoyable and comfortable experience.
• Position Your Computer Monitor at Eye Level – This is especially important if you work from a laptop: looking up, down, or sideways to view your computer monitor often strains your neck and shoulder muscles. Instead, use an adjustable monitor arm to position your screen at an optimum height, or use a laptop stand to raise your laptop to an appropriate viewing level.
Easier Days with Ergonomic EssentialsWorking from an office can be an enjoyable experience, but it just takes one piece of poorly designed office furniture to ruin it. Even when it's too rainy to go outside and walk to your favorite lunch place, every opportunity you have to relieve bodily tension at work should be seized.
Isn't it about high time you experience the ergonomic office lifestyle for yourself? Visit us at our Relax The Back store right here in beautiful Eugene for a personal assessment.

Magnetic Stirring
Magnetic Stirring Bar Selection & Use
Magnetic stirring is used in a number of common laboratory procedures, yet the importance of selecting the best stirring bar for each particular application is often overlooked. The drive magnet, vessel shape, viscosity and abrasiveness of the materials should all be considered when choosing the size, shape and materials (coating and magnet) of the magnetic stirring bar in order to achieve effective, efficient stirring results.
First, let's discuss magnetism. On the most basic level, we know that opposite poles attract. A magnetic stirrer has a drive magnet, generally a bar or U-shaped made of a metallic alloy or a ceramic which rotates powered by a drive motor. The magnetic poles of the drive magnet are typically about two inches apart in bench top models, and can be up to six inches apart in larger units used to mix 50 gallons of liquid solution. For optimum magnetic coupling the distance between the magnetic poles of the drive magnet and the length of the stirring bar should be equal. Bars too long or too short in proportion to the drive magnet will not have optimum coupling which is important to reduce spin-out.
Once a magnetic stirring bar has been placed in a container with solution, it should be positioned directly over the center of the drive magnet. The stirring speed should be increased slowly, until the desired vortex pattern is achieved. Should the magnetic stirring bar lose its coupling with the drive magnet because of the speed of the drive magnet, viscosity of the fluid, or an improperly selected stirring bar length, it is said to have 'spun-out'.
Vertical distance between the drive magnet and the stirring bar should be kept to a minimum for the best coupling and stirring efficiency. Therefore, the containing vessel should be as thin as practical.
The selection of the shape of the magnetic stirring bar also influences the resulting vortex in that multi-sided shapes may be more efficient in moving solutions and certain shapes have been designed to provide a tailored fit in specialty vessels such as test tubes, cuvettes and spectrophotometer cells.
Magnetic stirring bars are generally made of ALNICO (an alloy of aluminum, nickel, iron and cobalt) magnets encapsulated in an FDA approved PTFE coating. In addition, magnetic stirring bars also use high energy magnetic materials, such as Samarium Cobalt which increases strength of coupling with a drive magnet and helps to reduce spinout when mixing viscous solutions or mixing at high speeds.
Newer to the market, the Bel-Art Products Spinfinity magnetic stirring bars, use ALNICO magnets encapsulated in plastic for increased durability in granular slurries.

Inno3D GeForce GTX 285 Overclock Graphics Card
Having just had a look at the GTX 285 from GIGABYTE which strictly follows the reference design, it's nice to see a company at launch offer a card that doesn't carry the stock clocks. While there is nothing wrong with reference clocks and the speeds the GTX 285 puts out in its stock form, there's no denying that we want more power if we can get it.
Inno3D tend to send us some special cards, be it a good overclock or a nice new heatsink that helps keep the card nice and cool. While it doesn't come as any surprise that this Inno3D card carries with it the reference heatsink, it's good to know it carries their overclock trait.
Before we look at the clocks the card offers, let's have a look at the package, what comes with it and a closer look at the physical card. From there we will check out the clock speeds on offer here and see just what kind of performance increase the card achieves.

text: BB&T's third-quarter net interest margin (NIM) -- the difference between the average yield on loans and investments and the average cost for deposits and borrowings -- was 3.94%, declining only one basis point from the previous quarter, but company estimated that the margin would narrow ""to the mid-3.70s% range in 4Q12." O'Connor said that "earlier this month, BBT noted 4Q's NIM was coming in slightly better than expected--at around 3.80%. However, low rates and run off of purchase accounting accretion is likely to put additional pressure on NIM in 2013/beyond." Today's announcement by the Fed won't do anything to ease BB&T's net interest margin pressure, but the continued monetary stimulus could help the company achieve its expected loan growth of 5% to 7% in 2013. O'Connor estimates that BB&T will earn $2.90 a share in 2013. The analyst said that "it's tempting to get more positive" on the shares because of a valuation to forward earnings estimates that is only slightly above peers, with expectations for above average loan growth, "driven by good business/geographic mix and execution." On the other hand, his firm still sees "modest downside to 2013 consensus estimates (of 2-4%) and our 2014 estimate of $3.00 is 6% below consensus (with additional downside if interest rates don't rise)."

Sony Acquires Zipper, Creators of SOCOM
Gearing up for SOCOM on PS3? We hope so.
SCEA Announced today that it has acquired developer Zipper, the team behind the very successful SOCOM franchise. Over the last six years, the partnership between Zipper and Sony has been a fruitful one, and the next step - the signing of an exclusive licensing contract between the two companies - is a logical one. The financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed.
Either that, or they don't want to lose SOCOM to Xbox Live? In any case, we're eager for SOCOM for PS3. Can we expect an announcement along those lines soon?
SOCOM was what really drove the online play for the PS2; this acquisition perhaps shows that Sony is committed to the franchise, and gives us hope that the PS3's online capabilities will be carefully tended. Phil Harrison, president of SCE Worldwide Studios, hinted as much, saying, "Zipper's tremendous achievements and expertise in creating top-selling games with fantastically loyal online communities is a great addition to our development organization."

Sony shows how to do it right!!Posted: Jan 28, 2006 12:00AM PST by Ravenlore
Sony bought out a developer who made Sony games so it is not hurting other platforms. Prior to buying out dev houses if MS did the same thing it would not have been so bad. But they bought out Dev that did not have exclusive games for XboX prior to buying them.
Strategic...but not for the reasons QuWaker gavePosted: Jan 25, 2006 12:00AM PST by TiberiusJones
You miss a rather large part of the equation. Anyone who knows (IT professionals) will tell you, maintaining servers is no cheap proposition. An online gaming service will not help Sony offset losses of the PS3 hardware. The games will have to do that. Without a hard drive, the PS3 won't have the potential additional revenues that a Xbox Live Marketplace type environment would provide. Regarding the high price of the PS3, (without including a hard drive) one thing that game publishers can't be happy about is the fact that while Xbox360 had the highest attach rate in the history of a console release (4 games per console sold) the higher price of the PS3 means buyers will have to buy 1 or 2 less games at launch than they would if the price were $400 or less. Less games sold per console means less money for the developers/publishers, less money for Sony and more Developers eyeing an already established installed user base in the 360. In the PS3's first year, that's going to be a substantial hit to profits for Sony. It's only a strategic move in the sense that they currently don't even compete with Microsoft in terms of online play, and that simply can't be allowed in this generation.

But I had no clue it was 3rd party to begin with =/
ZIPPER was third partyPosted: Jan 25, 2006 12:00AM PST by Mr.Labeckio
Zipper interactive was a third party developer. They had some MECH war style game on PCs and I believe on the XBOX. SOCOM was not their only achivement. Now that SONY and ZIPPER have decided to make it official as to their console backing, we know where this will go into the future.
That's funny...Posted: Jan 25, 2006 12:00AM PST by PrinceT'Challa
because I also thought they had been acquired way before now. You would think that after 3 high selling games it was a no brainer.
wellPosted: Jan 25, 2006 12:00AM PST by Jac-Gurilla
that is sick status i hope socom comes out good for the ps3.
Very Strategic...Posted: Jan 25, 2006 12:00AM PST by QuWakers
Socom games have been known to attract more Players then even Halo has...Now, If Sony is going to do a Sony "Live" thing...This works fine... Socom3 uses a credit card number for account Verification, The same people will most likly use it for a Ps3 Live Socom4. Roughly 50,000 players play Socom3 online, varified. If the annual fee is only $75 for a YEAR, they make $3,750,000. and thats only if it's $75. Would help recover net loss from each console thats sold. Seeing has if they sell for $500, they loose quite a bit with the technology thats in it....Not a bad move...now is it?
Who caresPosted: Jan 24, 2006 12:00AM PST by Monkey-King
Okay what am I missing? Zipper makes four games in five years all for Sony units EXCLUSIVELY, and now somehow it matters Sony owns them instead of being a seocnd party....who cares? I'll telling you Zipper wasn't going anywhere. Their fans are so solidly entrenched on Sony units, so even if they jumped ship their just piss off half the customers and lose the rest. Where in any logical universe is this not a step sideways? The fact is Zipper just shipped one of the most bug filled PS2 games ever, and was just lucky no one cared to notcie. So now we should feel great that Zipper's sloth and "who cares lets role in the money" attitude might get blamed on Sony now....whoppeee!

BusinessWeek: Grand Theft Auto 4 Might Launch on Xbox 360 and PS3 Simultaneously Jan 24, 2006 @ 12:24pm Summary: Is Rockstar holding out on exclusivity deals to make GTA 4 a simultaneous next-gen launch? Full: Trade journal BusinessWeek is citing evidence from an anonymous inside source who claims that Rockstar is open to releasing the next Grand Theft Auto game on the Xbox 360 and PS3 simultaneously. Such a development could have dramatic effects on the next-gen console race. Because Grand Theft Auto 3 arrived on the PS2 many months before the Xbox version, the Grand Theft Auto games quickly gained a reputation for being PS2 system sellers. Sony leveraged that advantage by signing lucrative exclusivity deals on both GTA: Vice City and GTA: San Andreas, which helped to keep the games off competing consoles and sell additional PS2s. If Sony were to lose that exclusivity edge, it could represent a critical opportunity for Microsoft to muscle in on one of the best-selling video game series of all time. This situation could also help explain why Sony is rapidly acquiring talented third-party development studios like Guerilla Games (makers of Killzone) and Zipper Interactive (developers of the SOCOM games). Such acquisitions could help bolster the PS3's exclusive software lineup in the event that Grand Theft Auto 4 is not a PS3-exclusive. We've made the call to the folks at Take-Two for an official statement. Stay tuned.
A Bill Gates movePosted: Jan 24, 2006 12:00AM PST by Pirate_Captain_Dan
Well it seems that Sony has taken a page from Bill Gates.
A strong move and good forward thinking.Posted: Jan 24, 2006 12:00AM PST by Shau-Kenshin
Following the footsteps of the success of X-live seems to be the only logical thought. I guess this means for all the banter back and forth, has been rendered useless. My friends let the SCEA DNAS games begin!
its all becoming clear, sony is commited to onlinePosted: Jan 24, 2006 12:00AM PST by sigchi222
they got burned last generation but this is just another piece of evidence that sony will go xtra large on the online front this year with the 3. then there will be NO bragging rights left for all of the other consoles.....guess who's coming to dinner?
I thought Sony owned a piece of them all alongPosted: Jan 24, 2006 12:00AM PST by Stormgazer
It was the only title comparable to Halo 2 on the PS2, that made some gamers flock to it's online gaming community. It's why I bought the broadband adaptor in the first place. Socom 2 was a good game, but I never really got into it afterwards. Namely because Xbox Live stole all of my free time. I hope Sony n Zipper have a happy marriage together and it'll be interesting to see what kind of lil kids they produce together in the future.
64 player combat, here we come!Posted: Jan 24, 2006 12:00AM PST by shadowofomioc
Socom has 32 players online at once, which is amazing accomplishment considering its the PS2 were talking about. Hopefully Zipper takes that number and doubles it, ala Battlefield 2 over 1942.
lolPosted: Jan 24, 2006 12:00AM PST by Articuno76
I thought SOCOM was first party the whole time anyway...
Awesome and can't wait for it...Posted: Jan 24, 2006 12:00AM PST by new_age_soldier
This is awesome. Socom on PS3!!! this is just to good. Go to my page and check out some tunes.
SOCOM on PS3 Online?Posted: Jan 24, 2006 12:00AM PST by rowen_strata
That is an excellent idea. Maybe then, the SOCOM games will run smoothly and not look like crap anymore. The multiplayer, though, remains top notch.
po-tay-to/po-tah-toPosted: Jan 24, 2006 12:00AM PST by charliekwalker
As Socom never left the Sony platform, they might as well have been owned by Sony all along...
i assumed...Posted: Jan 24, 2006 12:00AM PST by caesar_god
they always belonged to Sony. Oh well, i'm not shocked because I already believed this to be true. good move on Sony's part

Rumour: Funcom lays off "70%" of US staff
This TenTonHammer post is rumouring that Funcom's dropped 70 percent of its American staff, totalling some 60 jobs.
Apparently the cuts were made on Wednesday, with the bulk of the redundancies coming from customer service and QA.
There's little detail there so this goes under "rumour" for now. Expect it to be firmed up next week.

How to Teach Your Children How to Be Good
Are your kids going crazy? Are you at Wit's end? Follow these easy steps!
1Keep calm. They will shout if you do, so don't shout.
2Don't just punish bad things: reward good ones.
3Have a simple chart that every one can use but use it for being good. Then have mats for them to sit on when they're bad.
4Bedtime might be dreaded words but it shouldn't. Have a chart to take turns on who chooses the book and Bedtime snack (a small glass of milk and one cookie is perfect)and whose room it will be in. When tears start give them a hug and say "Good Night" and leave. If they get out say "good night" and put them back into bed. The second time, say "Bedtime!" and go up with them to bed. The third time say "Bed!" and go up the stairs and watch them to their room.
5They need activities even on rainy days. Go to the dollar store and get art kits. They can be fun.

An algorithm for finding texture boundaries in images is developed on the basis of a computational model of human texture perception. The model consists of three stages: (1) the image is convolved with a bank of even-symmetric linear filters followed by half-wave rectification to give a set of responses; (2) inhibition, localized in space, within and among the neural response profiles results in the suppression of weak responses when there are strong responses at the same or nearby locations; and (3) texture boundaries are detected using peaks in the gradients of the inhibited response profiles. The model is precisely specified, equally applicable to grey-scale and binary textures, and is motivated by detailed comparison with psychophysics and physiology. It makes predictions about the degree of discriminability of different texture pairs which match very well with experimental measurements of discriminability in human observers. From a machine-vision point of view, the scheme is a high-quality texture-edge detector which works equally on images of artificial and natural scenes. The algorithm makes the use of simple local and parallel operations, which makes it potentially real-time

(4300 quotes found)
"When you are afraid to act for fear of being wrong, then you have ignored the chance of doing right."
"The truth that many people never understand, until it is too late, is that the more you try to avoid suffering the more you suffer because smaller and more insignificant things begin to torture you in proportion to your fear of being hurt"
"Fear is the main source of superstition, and one of the main sources of cruelty. To conquer fear is the beginning of wisdom."
"The whole secret of existence is to have no fear. Never fear what will become of you, depend on no one. Only the moment you reject all help are you freed."
"Why do you stay in prison
when the door is so wide open?
Move outside the tangle of fear-thinking.
Live in silence."
"I am afraid to show you who I really am, because if I show you who I really am, you might not like it--and that's all I got."
"Love is what we are born with. Fear is what we learn. The spiritual journey is the unlearning of fear and prejudices and the acceptance of love back in our hearts. Love is the essential reality and our purpose on earth. To be consciously aware of it, to experience love in ourselves and others, is the meaning of life. Meaning does not lie in things. Meaning lies in us."

LONDON Jan 8 Daily spot foreign exchange trading volumes on Thomson Reuters dealing platforms fell 11.5 percent in December to the lowest level since the company started tracking the data four years ago, figures showed on Wednesday.
Average daily spot volumes were $92 billion in December, traditionally the month of lowest volume, compared with $104 billion in November.
That is the lowest since Thomson Reuters started compiling the figures in January 2010, and together with September last year, only the second month when average daily volume has been below $100 billion.
Turnover across the world's largest financial market fell steadily over the course of last year, and comes against the background of the global investigation into alleged FX manipulation rates.
Average daily volume across Thomson Reuters dealing platforms in 2013 was $120 billion. That was down 6 percent from the previous year and a hefty 20 percent below the daily average of $150 billion in 2011.
On FXall, the electronic foreign exchange platform purchased by Thomson Reuters last year, average daily volumes fell 7 percent in December from a month earlier to $100 billion.
Volumes on FXall have steadily risen in the three years since data has been tracked. The daily average in 2013 was $108 billion, up 30 percent from $83 billion in 2011.

Product Description
With TV reruns of the Fleischer/Famous Studios theatrical shorts proving that Popeye still packed a spinach-powered punch that delivered smash ratings, King Features commissioned a new series of Sailor Man shorts under the aegis of executive producer Al Brodax. The TV incarnation of Popeye made up for its scaled-back animation with a broadened narrative scope and scale while still staying true to the source, thanks to the continued use of voice actors Jack Mercer (Popeye), Mae Questel (Olive) and Jackson Beck (now called Brutus) as well as the use of veteran Popeye animation talents then working at Paramount Cartoon Studios. Adding to the "I yam what I yam" authenticity is the addition of a number of Thimble Theater comic strip characters making their cartoon debuts – including King Blozo, Toar and Sea Hag! Among the cartoons contained in this stupendous 2-Disc, 72-Episode volume are all of the Paramount TV Popeye cartoons.

The executive producer Al Brodax commissioned 5 studios, who made 220 episodes from 1960 to 1962.
The studios were Jack Kinney Productions, Rembrandt Films (William L. Snyder and Gene Deitch), Larry Harmon Productions, Halas and Batchelor, Paramount Cartoon Studios (formerly Famous Studios), and Southern Star Entertainment (formerly Southern Star Productions).
This 2 Disc Set contains mostly the cartoons produced by Paramount Cartoon Studios, who made the best ones. They were formerly Famous Studios, who produced the theatrical color cartoons in the 50s that are still in TV Syndication today.
Even though these were made for kids and used "limited animation" they have their own charm and are my personal favorites as I grew up with them. Unlike other Popeye cartoons Bluto's physical appearance was slightly modified and his name changed to "Brutus". Also the inclusion of many other King Features characters such as the Sea Hag, King Blozo, Rough House etc. are found in these. This is also the series that the 1982 Nintendo Arcade Game was based off of, specifically the Paramount studios version to promote the movie.
== DVD Production ==
This appears to contain all of the Paramount cartoons, however, according to any online sources they do not seem to be in chronological order.
The Film Prints appear to be the same "high quality" transfers used by KOCH VISION in 2004 for the Popeye (75th Anniversary Collector's Edition), except these have been kept untouched and are NOT poorly remastered.
Koch Vision vs. WB: Koch Vision did NR and removed the minor film grain and did average color correction (when video fades you can see the colors not match). These look just like you remember them, the color isn't bad and the sound is perfect. Unfortunately Koch Vision did NOT know how to do proper audio remastering and those DVDs suffer in muffled audio that sounds like the old Dolby NR on a cassette deck. These have the old true audio back, much clearer sounding! No remastering is far better then Bad remastering!
This is a DVD-R VOD (Video On Demand) so no extras or anything but a plain menu, but that's fine as it's the cartoons that matter. I will take a DVD-R over lousy "DRM crippled" digital downloads any day!
OVERALL: I love this set and am so pleased that WB opted to leave the raw transfers alone, instead of doing bad remastering like Koch did with them; and that WB has done with others (i.e. Dragon's Lair came out terrible).
I do hope WB releases the rest of the cartoons.
So i was disappointed in that,also they didn't play on my main Sony dvr,but that's not a big deal.
The quality looks to be good along with the sound.
Both discs have silent menus,both have 36 toons on each disc.
Disc 1 comes in with a running time of 123m and Disc 2 with a running time of 125m.
No episode titles shown on back cover at all,you have to play the discs to find out.

So if you like toons from the 60s,especially Popeye then i would recommend this 2 disc set dvd.
I myself like it,but i'm not crazy about it,it sure would have been nice to have these in order of production.
Well, for longtime fans of the original Popeye comic strip, the KFS cartoons DO accomplish something that no other version did: incorporate original comic-strip characters like the Sea Hag and King Blozo. And although a handful of Fleischer cartoons did feature the magical Eugene the Jeep and the Goons, these characters are more prominent in these later films. And in a way, the exaggerated personalities are a better fit for the stories, which are clearly aimed at children. The animation, as stated above, was made for television. . .and it simply isn't very good. A repeated example that I noticed is how characters's eyes would have pupils in close-up shots, but from a further distance, the eyes were simply black dots. Maybe that's a budget thing, maybe it's just lazy animators. Or more likely, animators who didn't have time to crank out more detailed work on a t.v. schedule.
As a Popeye fan, I do have to say I'm grateful to Warner Bros. for making these cartoons available. As this is a made-on-demand DVR product, the shorts don't appear to be remastered. However, almost all of them look perfectly fine. And considering how limited the artwork and animation were to begin with, I doubt they could look too much better. Unfortunately typical of these type of releases is the absence of any bonus features. All you get is the choice to "Play All" or select individual cartoons. Popeye enthusiasts may want to note that a good number of these shorts were previously available on Koch Visions'Popeye (75th Anniversary Collector's Edition). I admit I have not done a side-by-side comparison for quality, but the duplicated cartoons don't seem to be any better or worse in the new release.
I do hope that after WB finishes off the 60's Popeye (this is just Vol. 1, after all), they will be able to get good copies of the 1940's and 50's Famous Studios cartoons, mainly of which have languished in washed-out public domain hell for many years. But the bottom line for this collection is: If you're a Popeye fan, you'll want to have it and MAY be able to overlook the shortcomings of the material. If you're a parent and want to introduce your kids to Popeye, this is certainly the safest bet (very little violence, no smoking, etc.).
The amazon description is correct about the discs being DVD-R as you can see the purple color underneath the discs but the labeling is still professionally done. They are made on a per-order basis by Warner Archives, so there really is no difference from mass produced versus these well packaged ones. The only difference is that they are on those DVD-R discs, but still have the professionally produced screens/labels on the discs. I didn't see any bonus extras on the two discs.
I hope the remainder of the 220 episodes gets released soon on Volumes 2 and possibly 3. If you like those Popeye toons, these are a must for your collection.

Rila Monastery
Bulgaria's largest and most renowned monastery emerges abruptly out of a forested valley in the Rila Mountains. It's a major attraction for both Bulgarian pilgrims and foreign tourists. On summer weekends the site is especially busy, though at other times it provides more solitude.
With its art galleries, winding cobbled streets and bohemian cafes, Plovdiv (Plov-div) equals Sofia in things cultural and is a determined rival in nightlife as well – it has a lively, exuberant spirit befitting its status as a major university town. Being a smaller and less stressful city than Sofia, Plovdiv is also great for walking.
