As the old adage goes, the only constant thing in life is change. For the past 5 years, I've thoroughly enjoyed working as a Developer Evangelist here at Microsoft. The title always seems to raise eyebrows, especially here in the deep South, where the title of Evangelist connotes recognizable traditional images.
This job has had so many nuances over the years, but the one common thread is that it involves engaging developers wherever they are, from community to enterprise and everything in between. As much fun as this has been, I was approached about a new position, in Seattle, and in the end I just couldn't turn it down.
My new job is called a Content Architect. The position involves building, finding, aggregating, and exposing developer content to the Microsoft folks in the field, to re-present. As an evangelist for many years, I've been on the receiving end of this content, and have had a lot of ideas on how I would do it if I ran the zoo ($1 to Dr. Seuss). Now, it looks like I'll find out if all these ideas are do-able :-)
I'll be working for Thom Robbins - originator of the Code Camps, and clearly one of the thought leaders in our industry. His team, which includes several other visionary people, is another one of the big reasons I wanted to do this job.
I have to say, Microsoft continues to be the most amazing place I've ever worked, and I've worked at some phenomenal places, so the bar is quite high. It's almost like Microsoft tries to find out what you are passionate about, and then adapts your role to your passion. I know that's not exactly how it works, but I love the open-minded thinking that refuses to pigeon-hole a job. People are encouraged to think big, and are empowered to pursue their ideas.
My blog and email will continue to be the same, as will .NET University.
Glen Gordon will be aptly taking over the community side of the DE role for Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi. Glen has been a DE for some time, but has been more focused on the MSDN Events and online reach like GeekSpeak. and his numerous webcasts. Glen is already fully immersed in his new role.
It has been a privilege to be your DE for the past 5 years. And many thanks to the developer community here, who have made this job so much fun.
My wife, children, and I will be relocating to Seattle. It was a tough decision to leave the South, after 41 years here. But so often, the big rewards in life are preceded by taking a risk. If there were no uncertainty, there would be no need for leadership. I believe strongly in this team, and in the purpose that lies ahead, enough so to take the plunge.
And so, the next chapter begins... :-)

What is Obamacare?
"Obamacare" is what we've all apparently decided to call the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, a set of health reforms passed by the Congress and signed into law by President Obama in March 2010.
The law itself touches on everything from how hospitals are reimbursed for care to whether chain restaurants post calorie counts on their menus. But, generally, by "Obamacare" most people mean the provisions of the law that relate to the efforts to insure about 30 million Americans through subsidized private insurance or government-provided Medicaid.
When is Obamacare?
Soon! Obamacare's insurance marketplaces -- where people who don't get health insurance through Medicaid, Medicare or their employer will go to buy it -- begin open enrollment on Tuesday (Oct. 1). The law actually begins delivering insurance coverage, both through private plans bought on the marketplaces and through Medicaid, on Jan. 1.
Are you sure it will really start then?
Pretty sure. There have been some small delays in the functionality of different marketplaces. In the D.C. marketplace, for instance, consumers won't be able to see their subsidies until November. In the federally-run marketplaces, small businesses won't be able to shop online until November. But overall, the law looks on track for New Year's Day.
Will Obamacare be available in every state?
Some of it will, some of it won't. The insurance marketplaces, and the subsidies that go along with them, will be available in every state and the District of Columbia. But the Medicaid expansion, which serves people making less than 133 percent of the federal poverty line ($31,322 for a family of four), was made optional by the Supreme Court. As of now, only 26 states are likely to participate in it come January.
What makes this particularly troublesome for the law (and, more to the point, for the uninsured) is that there are no subsidies for private insurance for people making less than the poverty line. So if you're poor and in a state that hasn't accepted the Medicaid expansion, you're out of luck.
This is a lot to read. Can't you do it in cartoon form?
Er, no. But the Kaiser Family Foundation can.
Ack, sorry, I meant "graphic novel" form. I'm too old for cartoons.
Actually, I like reading stuff. So who gets insurance through the program?
Here's the biggest thing to know about Obamacare: Most people will never notice it.
If you get health insurance through your employer or the government -- as 80 percent of Americans do -- it's very unlikely that you'll interact with Obamacare's coverage expansion at all. (There are other provisions in Obamacare, like some of the efforts to improve care quality or cut health-care costs, that could affect you. But that's not the core of the law or the part that's starting Tuesday.)
Obamacare mostly matters most for the 20 percent of Americans who are either uninsured or get insurance on the individual (or "non-group") market. Anyone in those groups can get insurance through Obamacare. Those who make more than the federal poverty line, but less than four times the poverty line ($94,200 for a family of four), can buy subsidized insurance on the marketplaces. Those making less than 133 percent of the poverty line, and living in a state that has accepted the Medicaid expansion, can get Medicaid.
The Congressional Budget Office expects that the Affordable Care Act will cover about 14 million of the uninsured in 2014 and 25 million by the end of the decade. That still leaves about 30 million people uninsured. More on them here.
If I already have health insurance, do I have to care about this?
Probably not. The truth of Obamacare is that it mostly affects the uninsured and people who don't have employer-based or government-based health insurance. That's a relatively small fraction of the population, even though we often talk about the law as if it affects everyone.
Are there death panels?
But I wanted death panels.
How much are the premiums?
That will vary depending on the state you're in, your age, your health, your income, the kind of plan you want, etc. The fastest way to figure out your costs is to go to www.HealthCare.gov.
What does it cover?
All insurance under Obamacare has to cover a set of health benefits the Obama administration has defined as "essential." They are "ambulatory patient services; emergency services; hospitalization; maternity and newborn care; mental health and substance use disorder services, including behavioral health treatment; prescription drugs; rehabilitative and habilitative services and devices; laboratory services; preventive and wellness services and chronic disease management; and pediatric services, including oral and vision care."
The bottom line is that if you get sick, the insurance you get through Obamacare is almost certainly going to cover you.
How much will I pay out of pocket?
Depends. Out-of-pockets costs in Medicaid are almost nothing. In the insurance marketplaces, however, there are four levels of insurance coverage: Bronze, silver, gold and platinum. These levels correspond to the amount of health costs they'll cover for the average applicant: 60 percent for bronze, 70 percent for silver, 80 percent for gold, 90 percent for platinum (there's also a bare-bones "catastrophic" option available to applicants under age 30). The lower your level of coverage, the more you'll pay out of pocket.
But the law also has secondary out-of-pocket protections, including limits on out-of-pocket costs for lower-income families. The Kaiser Family Foundation's subsidy calculator will tell you if you qualify.
How many options will I have to choose from?
Since both Medicaid and the insurance marketplaces are different in different states, it depends on where you live. Entering your information at HealthCare.gov will give you the quickest overview.
What if I have a preexisting condition?
Under Obamacare, it doesn't matter. One of the really big changes that the health law makes to the insurance marketplaces is eliminating the relevance of preexisting conditions altogether. This is true for both plans sold on the new marketplaces, and those sold outside of it. This means that insurers won't be allowed to ask you about your health, or charge you more because of it.
What if I'm young and really, really healthy?
Congratulations! You're in the prime of your life – and may have heard that you're getting ripped off by the health care law. Here's the deal: The health care law limited the amount that insurers can charge really old people, and that might lead them to bump up the rates for younger people. A lot of this will depend on where you live.
This chart from the Kaiser Family Foundation, which shows the premiums for a 25-year-old who earns $25,000, might help you out:
How much information will I have to share with the government?
You'll have to tell them some basics: name, age, address, income and the size of your family. You will have to tell whether you use tobacco (the law includes a premium surcharge for smokers). You won't have to share information about your health status or doctor.
Where do I go to buy it?
But aren't there a bunch of glitches?
Definitely. As much as health wonks were looking forward to October 1st, the conventional wisdom was that relatively few people would actually try and sign up. That was...wrong. The marketplaces have been overwhelmed with traffic, which has meant some error messages and lengthy wait times. There are also some marketplaces, like the one in Washington, D.C., that aren't fully functional yet. But as with any online product launch, the technical kinks are likely to get worked out. So if you want to sign up, give it a shot, and if it doesn't work, try again later.
Who can help me buy health insurance?
If you don't want to just sign up on your own, there are people who can help guide you through the process. You could go to the insurance brokers who sell health plans right now, typically receiving a commission for their work. The health care law funds some new positions to provide similar help. Dubbed "navigators," these are people whose whole job is to explain the enrollment process. They do not receive a commission from the health plan for enrolling someone in coverage.
Too much text!
Video interlude! Here's a two-minute Obamacare explainer for those who might need to jet at this point (although you really don't want to miss everything that comes next).
How hard will it be to sign up?
That's a little difficult to predict right now. What we do know is that anyone who wants to buy coverage will have to enter in basic information: Their age, income, state of residence and family size. After that, if all goes as planned, shoppers will be able to compare different health plans.
Federal officials have found that, in the very best case scenario, people will be able to buy coverage in just seven minutes. That's probably not the typical case, where someone will want to take time going over plan options. And there's also the possibility of glitches with information processing that could delay the process.
How long do I have to sign up?
Finally, a simple question! You can buy health coverage on the marketplaces from Oct. 1 to March 31. After that open enrollment period, you're out of luck for buying a plan in 2014. There are exceptions made for people who experience a life-changing circumstance, such as moving to a new state or losing a job.
What if I don't want to buy insurance?
First off: Nobody will come knocking down your door, demanding that you purchase a health plan. But if you decide not to purchase coverage, you will have to pay a $95 tax penalty. This would be deducted from your 2015 tax return.
How will the government know if I have health insurance?
You'll have to tell them, via the taxes that you file for 2014. Starting then, the Internal Revenue Service will send out a form where you'll fill in the type of health plan you purchased (or, if you didn't purchase coverage, noting that fact). Employers might hand out pre-populated versions of these forms to make things a little bit easier.
Will the government send gunmen to track me down if I'm not insured?
While this is a popular Obamacare myth, it is, in fact, untrue: The federal government is actually really limited in the action it can take to collect the tax penalty for not purchasing health coverage. It can't send agents to your door, nor can it put a lien on your house. The most they can do is take the fine out of your tax refund – or, if you're not getting a refund this year, put it on your tab for next year's refund.
What if I can't find an affordable plan? Do I still have to buy something?
Nope! Although it's the government, not you, who gets to decide what counts as "affordable." The health care law says that if you can't find a plan that costs less than 8 percent of your income, then you're exempt from the requirement to purchase health insurance. This will, obviously, depend a lot on an individual's circumstances and not the sticker price of the plans sold on the new marketplaces.
What if I don't want to buy insurance yet, but think I might want to buy it later?
Open enrollment lasts until March 31, so you have until then to weigh your options. After that, you can't buy insurance until next open enrollment period, which starts on Oct. 7, 2014.
What if I get insurance through Obamacare and then I get a job that pays more money?
Well, go out and have a celebratory drink! And then celebrate more by...filling out some paperwork! If your income changes, you're supposed to go back online and report that shift. Any federal help you get purchasing health insurance coverage will likely be adjusted to reflect your new income. The other option here is not to report your new income, although the government will figure it out when you file taxes the next year – and then look to recoup the tax credits you were not supposed to receive.
Was the individual mandate delayed?
It was not. While the White House did delay the requirement that large employers offer coverage to their workers, it did not touch the provision that says all individuals must carry health insurance coverage. That still takes effect on Jan. 1.
I own a small business. What does this mean for me?
A few things, starting with the new small business health insurance marketplaces. These are new online marketplaces that open Oct. 1, where you could help your workers buy insurance coverage. Initially, the idea for these marketplaces was to have employers chip in a certain amount and then their employees could pick any health insurance plan they wanted; a young worker might want cheaper premiums, whereas someone older could purchase more robust coverage.
The federal government had to delay that functionality for one year, though, because of technical problems. That means, in 2014, you will pick one plan for your workers to enroll in. Some states running their own marketplaces, however, will allow for full employee choice of any plans starting Tuesday.
How are the subsidies paid for? Are my taxes going up?
There are essentially two big funding streams for the Affordable Care Act. The first are cuts to Medicare reimbursements. We heard a lot about this during the presidential campaign, when Mitt Romney would talk about the law cutting $716 billion from Medicare. These are cuts largely to the rates that we pay doctors who see Medicare patients, and also what we pay private insurers that cover these subscribers.
The other big funding source are taxes on different health care industries like hospitals, insurance companies and, more relevant in recent days, medical device makers. There's a debate about whether those taxes will get passed on to consumers, but, as it stands, they're not direct taxes on you as an individual.
There is one tax that is applied to some individuals, which began last year: The Affordable Care Act raised taxes on investment income for people who earn more than $200,000.
I hear that there are long waiting lists in countries with laws like Obamacare. Am I going to have to wait longer for surgeries?
The United States does right now have some of the shortest wait times in the world to see speciality doctors. We tend to have shorter wait times than a few countries with national health care systems, like Canada and the United Kingdom.
We're expanding our health care system to cover millions more people, making it a little more like a national health care system. When we hand out all those insurance cards, will people still be able to see their doctor?
We don't know for sure what will happen, but we do have a few historical examples to look at, like when Medicare launched in 1965, and the New York Times ran this cartoon to illustrate the looming influx of patients:
The long wait times never really materialized in any serious way. "At the end of its third week," the New York Times reported a few months later, "the Medicare program was reported going smoothly, with difficulties in some areas of the South still the only major problem."
In Massachusetts, wait times to see specialists were bad before the state passed a universal coverage law, and bad afterwards. You can read more on that from Jonathan Cohn.
I'm 25 and uninsured, but my folks have insurance. What does the law do for me?
For you, Obamacare might be the best deal: The health law allows young adults up to age 26 to stay on their parents' health insurance plan. About 3 million people have taken up this option so far. So start bugging your mom to fill out the paperwork.
Where can I go for more information?
After Oct. 1, the best way to learn about what Obamacare does and doesn't mean for you is to go to www.HealthCare.Gov and tool around. Meanwhile, the Kaiser Family Foundation's subsidy calculator is your best bet. For more of an overview of the law, the Kaiser Family Foundation's summary is excellent.

The final frozen image of the movie Rocky III, the one that signals the credits scrolling to the song "Eye of the Tiger," is a fan's dream of what can occur when two valiant warriors do battle for our amusement. Rocky Balboa's powerful straight left and Apollo Creed's overhand right are freeze-framed before impact, and we imagine they will each connect in simultaneous glory, each man taking the other one out, solving nothing and everything at once.
In real life, that's not how it works. In real life, two punches, thrown at seemingly the same moment, will arrive at their target milliseconds apart. Which is another way of saying, one will arrive, one will not. Thus, one man, not two, will go down. And he will go down hard.
This is what happened on September 6, 2008, at Philips Arena in Atlanta. That's the night that crowd favorite Chuck "The Iceman" Liddell, arguably at that point still the biggest star in UFC history, threw a second-round powerful right uppercut too late by a skosh (in neural-firing terms). Because his Light Heavyweight opponent, severe underdog "Suga" Rashad Evans, landed his overhand right just as Liddell's punch was reaching its target. Liddell's head and neck jerked to his right with such force it seems comical in slow motion. Liddell went down to one knee, then onto his side, unconscious before his head hit the floor.
The punch stunned UFC fans — 14,735 of them went silent in Philips Arena. (One did not: Evans' pregnant wife, who screamed so loudly for so long the bout's announcers had to acknowledge to the Pay Per View audience the source of the shrieking.) This wasn't the way it was supposed to happen, in their minds. The story line was supposed to be: beloved longtime champion takes out brash, arrogant newcomer. In actuality, it propelled Evans into his status as one of the game's top fighters (albeit one who still has to endure his share of claims that he won on a "lucky punch" and that he's "a 'B' fighter.")
If the punches were reversed, perhaps that would not have been the case. But just as in boxing (the sport to which MMA-style fighting is most often compared, for obvious reasons), the story lines that lead up to a fight are always in danger of being erased and rewritten by the small matter of the fight itself. As it was true that night for UFC 88 in Atlanta, so could it be true this Saturday at UFC 145 at Philips Arena. The highlight bout that evening again features Rashad Evans, once again a steep underdog. But this time he's the old man (34) going against a young (24), charismatic champion — his former friend and training partner, Jon "Bones" Jones.
The buildup has everything: comparisons to the greatest boxing fights of the century (Ali-Frazier and Ali-Foreman); the young star actually being compared to and mimicking Muhammad Ali; allegations of stealing moves from each other, of fakery, of ass-kissing, of loutish ignorance; as well as the requisite number of compelling elements to any mixed martial arts fight, namely that a punch or elbow or knee could send someone into dreamland before you get settled in your ringside seat.
It also has the game within the game: two fighters at once trying to embrace the marketing surrounding the match, knowing that (most) all publicity is good publicity for a fledging sport, and reflexively distancing themselves from the Ali-Frazier comparisons.
All of which makes this Saturday's UFC card a seemingly seminal moment in the maturation of a sport that even the UFC President, Dana White, acknowledges is not yet "in the mainstream." (See sidebar interview, p. 34.) But it sure feels as though UFC is at mainstream's door, boasting record TV ratings (UFC signed a multi-channel seven-year broadcast agreement with Fox Sports last August) and an expanding global reach (last week's big UFC event was in Sweden). This is fueled by an impressive UFC marketing machine that expertly tells its story through social and traditional media means, and that works hard to keep negative images of the sport out of the conversation. Example: For this story, UFC would not give us any of the more violent images we requested, understanding fully that we love hyping that noise. The UFC rightly points out that, violent as it is by its nature, its only serious injury has been a broken arm.
Besides, the Jones vs. Evans story line is pretty dramatic on its own, and the real animosity the men have for each other, coupled with the circus that surrounds such large-scale events (be they boxing, pro wrestling, or MMA bouts), could substantially aid UFC's continuing efforts to invade the national sports conscience.
Which is something UFC President Dana White understands. "The next two years are more important than ever with getting new viewers," he says. "But at the end of the day it's still up to them [the fighters] to perform."

Hope everybody is looking forward to the game as much as Craig. Craig has broke down both the Arizona-Cardinals-Super-Bowl-Preview.cfm" target="_blank" title="Arizona Super Bowl Breakdown">Arizona Cardinals and Pittsburgh-Steelers-Super-Bowl-Breakdown.cfm" target="_blank" title="Steelers Super Bowl Breakdown">Pittsburgh Steelers individually, the last five years trend for Super Bowl, and the wide receivers' props breakdown for Hines Ward and Larry Fitzgerald.
Today we will give you the one key that will be the difference in this game. This key will be the difference in winning or losing your Super Bowl wager against the spread.
All of Craig's breakdowns really come down to the offensive line of Arizona verse the pressure of Pittsburgh's defense. Not hard to figure out that Arizona must score to win this contest. Pittsburgh, on the other hand, has the luxury of being able to win with both their offense and defense.
Anybody that watched the Philly-Arizona game saw an Arizona team that struggled in the second half to move the ball against the blitz and pressure of Philly.
So making this easy for all of the wagering public just decide if Arizona can keep Warner from getting constant pressure in his face. Place a wager on the side you feel strongest will win this contest, or take a prop for sacks over under for Pittsburgh to make some extra money.
Craig's top prop wager is Santonio Holmes to win the MVP +1500. My value play to win MVP because in this game Arizona has an average secondary, and he has good chance to have a couple long catches. Also sounds as if he will be returning punts and could have a special team TD also.
Figure this out and you have the winner or even easier get in with Craig's GUARANTEED Super Bowl Touchdown Club play! Good luck to all of you and enjoy the profits from Craig's Super Bowl Against the Spread winner!

The concept of race headlines many discussions in America. If you are talking about education, then you must address the achievement gap between white and black students. If you are talking about poverty, then you must talk about the disproportionate number of people of color who consume social services. If the conversation is about crime, you are pressed to mention the high number of African American male inmates.
It's the fog of race: prejudice and discrimination applied to pigmentation-neutral topics.
We are living in a time of nativism around the globe. Britain just voted to leave the European Union based on Euroscepticism. The Alternative for Germany movement aims to do the same for the EU's largest remaining nation, while France's National Front Party and Italy's Northern League have grown in power over the last decade. And in the U.S., the Republican Party has nominated a candidate whose platform includes building a giant wall on the border.

Please Note - If a class is marked as full, you can still sign up to be on the waiting list.
Rosalie Dace
Here and Now
September 26 –30, 2016
At the Stitchin' Post
Unleash your inner artist and make a quilt that no one else could make as you develop a personal design with your own sense of time and place. Emphasis will be on COLOR and VALUE, LINE, SHAPE and TEXTURE to express your own journey to where you are now in your life. Choose a personal symbol, motif and color to represent your sense of space, time and mood and build a stunning composition using a visual path, and pattern repeat without predictability. Learn to edit, select and simplify to create mystery, drama, richness and security in your work. Whatever you choose to depict, I will provide guidance as you create a successful contemporary visual composition that says "This is me here now!"
This class is full, but you may still request to be added to the waiting list.
Cynthia Corbin
Composing Composition
September 26 –30, 2016
From Cynthia: I am a quiltmaker. Over the years I have slopped dye onto fabric and discovered I love the accident and the unexpected. I have stitched and stitched with machine, by hand, and with mega machine—my longarm, Millie—and have discovered that I love the errant line, the intuitive following of a muscle memory. In looking for my voice, I have discovered a boundless trove of experiences that has given me the quiet subject matter I explore.
I like being a quiltmaker. There is comfort in the doing. There is understanding in the doing. And I love the feeling of not knowing "how" I am going to do it, but being eager to jump in and find out. All the doors are open to me, ready to explore.
Composing Composition
For every rule about good composition, someone comes along and breaks that rule, and does it well. That is ART. That is the evolution of ART.
This class is full, but you may still request to be added to the waiting list.

OxDEG, the Oxford Digital Ethnography Group, comprises students and faculty members from Oxford University who discuss and share ideas about the evolution of ethnography in a heavily mediated world.
The aim of this group is to provide a platform for cross-disciplinary collaboration among students and staff with interests in digital ethnography and qualitative research practice in an online environment from across the university.
In October 2011, an unofficial interdisciplinary seminar group was started by Dr William Kelly of the School of Anthropology and Museum Ethnography (SAME) and Dr Eric T. Meyer of the Oxford Internet Institute (OII) to provide a space for students and faculty to meet to discuss ethnographic practice in the digital realm. The positive response from students and faculty across the university led to students taking a leading role in 2013 with a small grant from the Economic and Social Research Council through Oxford's Doctoral Training in Social Science program. This year, we will have a combination of invited speakers and seminars to engage with the latest questions and research methods in digital ethnography.
The overarching theme is digital ethnography, broadly conceived. The group aims to extend inter-disciplinary academic research and collaboration among scholars at Oxford University interested in understanding rich, qualitative approaches to researching behaviour online. It will encompass a variety of research interests within this field, including digital visual anthropology as well as a variety of qualitative, ethnographic methodologies appropriate to the study of the digital environment.
The Programme
Check http://dkc.oii.ox.ac.uk/events/ for the current programme.

Theoretical and experimental analysis of a wide range of shields that combine an electrically thin cylindrical shield with a drain wire/current diverter shows that the surface transfer impedance can be characterized as a solid foil shield in parallel with the impedance of the drain wire. The drain wire/current diverter should be modeled as an inductor and a frequency-dependent resistor in series. The resistance is frequency-dependent because of skin depth effects. Neglecting high-frequency aperture coupling, the surface transfer impedance of a foil shield with drain wire can be characterized in three frequency regimes. At low frequencies, the transfer impedance is determined by the resistance of the drain wire. At intermediate frequencies, the resistance of the drain wire increases due to skin depth and inductive effects. For most cable shields, the skin depth effect will dominate. At higher frequencies, for cable samples that use good (circumferential) shield termination techniques, the surface transfer impedance is determined by the transfer impedance of the foil shield

Coming from a windows history, I'd just managed to get my first Ubuntu computer running with Apache, PHP5, Mysql, Memcached and some other goodies to work as a local development workstation.
But, to learn the basics, since i know less than nothing about Apaches configurations and recommended settings:
What's common sense and good practice to start on when configuring a fresh install of Apache on a Ubuntu box? I am assuming that something needs to be done out-of-the box to make it use its full potential together with the rest of my packages?
Thanks a lot,

The oil has a great scent and gives you a great oiled feel without being overly slick. Great for a massage whether it's sensual or not as it has a relaxing smell to it.
It's ok, smells great, works well, but not worth the price.
I love this massage oil but I wish they would go back to the 8 oz. Size. The picture also is misleading as it arrives in a different bottle.
The picture is a little misleading the bottle looks bigger online and they aren't the same bottle so I thought I got the wrong stuff at first.

Visisted my site earlier today, and it came up blank. Revisted it a little later, and it gave me a message saying my database was out of date, and asked if I wanted to upgrade. I clicked the upgrade link, then got the 1 step, and said I was done.
When to go to /wp-admin and I got the same message. It just loops. I was finally able to get to /wp-admin but the menu bar at the top was missing.
I was running 2.0.0 and thought, well no better time than the present to ugprade to the latest version. Ran the upgrade, and same thing!
When I do see my front page all my pictures appear as "\" on the page.
I have 5 other WordPress blogs, never a problem with any of them. Nothing has changed in over a month -- just broke :(
Thoughts? Any help would be appreciated. I do have a fairly recent back up, but I'd hate to have to lose anything.

Can I give my three year old dramamine?
- Posted:

Responses (1)
30 May 2011
According to the information provided by this site yes.
"Who should not take Dramamine (dimenhydrinate)?
Before taking this medication, tell your doctor if you have
kidney or liver disease,
an enlarged prostate,
difficulty urinating,
bladder problems,
asthma, or
an irregular heartbeat or any other type of heart disease.
You may not be able to take dimenhydrinate, or you may require a lower dose or special monitoring during treatment if you have any of the conditions listed above.
Dimenhydrinate is in the FDA pregnancy category B. This means that it is unlikely to harm an unborn baby. Do not take dimenhydrinate without first talking to your doctor if you are pregnant. Dimenhydrinate passes into breast milk and may harm a nursing baby. Do not take dimenhydrinate without first talking to your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby. Dimenhydrinate is not recommended for use by children younger than 2 years of age, except under the direction of a doctor."
Take care,

The first time I saw the work of Mon Petit Studio, I fell in love. I liked their Facebook page to keep them in mind for when my boyfriend (now husband) got his act together and we could finally plan our wedding (Love you, Erin!).

Our photos were beautifully organized on their blog and on our personal flash drive and we have gotten so many compliments on them already.

Amazing!!Reviewed on 4/18/2015
Stella sand Chris captured our wedding day beautifully! Not only that but they were a dream to work with prior to our big day, anytime I reached to them with a question, concern or idea I always received a thoughtful response within 24 hours. As a busy bride, this was a HUGE... Read More weight off my shoulders. They did an incredible job capturing every aspect of our wedding day, from the big moments, the guests and all the little details. They gave us a small teaser of edited photos the next day and all 1500+ photos were ready to view and purchase within 6 weeks. I cannot say enough good things about Stella and Chris and would highly recommend them.
Mon Petit Studio is the very best!Reviewed on 4/15/2015 Kristen C

Mon Petit Studio is not a photography service. It is THE photography service.Reviewed on 4/14/2015
When my wife and I were getting married, we made a decision early on to make sure our photographs were as perfect as we could possibly get them. After all, all you have left from the big day are your photographs, right? We performed months and months of research, and finally... Read More decided on Mon Petit to be our photographers. Out of all the decisions that meed to be made when planning a wedding, the one we made here would turn out to be our smartest.

I recommend Mon Petit Studio any time somebody asks for a great photography solution, and I'll do the same here. If you live in New England, you simply can not do better than these two.

BUDAPEST, Hungary (AP) - Prosecutors say three officials, including a former Hungarian ambassador to Russia, have been taken into custody, suspected of taking part in the sale of Hungary's commercial office in Moscow at below its market value.
Prosecutor Imre Keresztes said Tuesday in a statement that the unauthorized transaction carried in 2008 allegedly shortchanged Hungary by nearly 7 billion forints (euro26 million, $35.5 million), including losses stemming from ill-timed currency exchanges.
The suspects were identified as former ambassador Arpad Szekely, former Foreign Ministry state secretary Marta Fekszi Horvath and Miklos Tatrai, ex-CEO of Hungary's national asset manager.

Excellent and easy! I roast peppers in the summer and freeze them, so I always have some on hand--and that was GOOD. We sprinkled some feta on top. Thanks!
This was delicious even though I only had the medium shrimp in the house, and spent more time than I cared to shelling and deveining 1 lb of those....grrrr, not my favorite job anyway. But the orzo was really tasty, and the shrimp were great too. Would make this again, but next time...gonna take the time to run to the Seafood Market for the larger shrimp.
My hubby loved this because shrimp is his favorite food in the world. I subbed fresh vegie stock for the bouillon powder, used a combo of red and yellow peppers roasted, used fresh toms and fresh herbs. I added the bell peppers to the dish last minute. Don't care for bell peppers cooked for long periods of time. Good directions for giving your mate a peck on your cheek BEFORE eating the shrimp.
We had this for supper last night. It was fast, tasty and an attractive plate. I subbed Oil cured olives for Kalamata, and made a shrimp jus from the (discarded) shells and tomato juice. So, shoot me, I don't like waste (chicken bouillon powder either). BIG plus... this is a recipe for 2! Recipe writing was very engaging.
Well I must confess I made a couple of substitutions, which is something I don't like to do with contest recipes; however, I don't think they changed the taste, maybe the outcome. I was in the middle of everything and found I didn't have a yellow pepper so I had to use red. I know that the yellow would have added more color. Also, my shrimp were medium size ones, 31 to 40 count per pound. Finally, I subbed a husband for the boyfriend and we both enjoyed this dish. Hope you don't the substitutions!

Highly functional biobased epoxy resins were prepared using dipentaerythritol (DPE), tripentaerythritol (TPE), and sucrose as core polyols that were substituted with epoxidized soybean oil fatty acids, and the impact of structure and functionality of the core polyol on the properties of the macromolecular resins and their epoxy-anhydride thermosets was explored. The chemical structures, functional groups, molecular weights, and compositions of epoxies were characterized using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, gel permeation chromatography (GPC), and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI MS). The epoxies were also studied for their bulk viscosity, intrinsic viscosity, and density. Crosslinked with dodecenyl succinic anhydride (DDSA), epoxy-anhydride thermosets were evaluated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), tensile tests, and tests of coating properties. Epoxidized soybean oil (ESO) was used as a control. Overall, the sucrose-based thermosets exhibited the highest moduli, having the most rigid and ductile performance while maintaining the highest biobased content. DPE/TPE-based thermosets showed modestly better thermosetting performance than the control ESO thermoset.

Five Spanish Songs EP
Nov 26, 2013 Issue #48 - November/December 2013 - HAIM
Dan Bejar shows a little love for an influence and takes a break from English with a handful of covers, deeming the English language "spent, despicable, not easily singable" and "good for business transactions, but that's about it." We could all stand a break, honestly—let an adjective count on this review alone serve as proof. Ample proof.
Yes—breaks are good for the soul, as is the discovery of someone like Spain's Antonio Luque, aka the guiding force of Sr. Chinarro. Luque is known for surreal, ironic, and cryptic lyrics (remind you of anyone?). Whether or not you require Google's assistance in understanding said lyrics shouldn't affect your enjoyment here as a fan of Bejar's singular touch.
"Del Mont—n" was a Spanish-language Magnetic Fields in its original incarnation, with Luque's taste for darker '80s flavors on display, and a voice at least an octave down from Bejar's. The Destroyer version slows it down, swings it a little, and gives it a jazz-guitar backbone. "El Rito" is taken from its Flamenco-tinged, group-vocal origin to fuzzed-out guitar pop, but leaves the steady handclaps intact. Surrealistic post-punk number "Bye Bye" gets a treatment worthy of its name—gentle, closing-time/album-closer wistfulness. Last call. Speaking of which, Mr. Bejar's wrapping up 2013 with an acoustic tour, then taking a siesta 'til 2015. Okay, that siesta part may have been made up. Vaya con Dios.

Wow! What can I say. This was my first time to Telluride and I am hooked! Unsurpassed scenic vistas, very professional staff, and terrian for every skill level. This was my first time skiing in 10 years. The green runs help bring it all back to me; it is just like riding a bike. The layout of the mountain is very intelligent. The East side are blues and blacks and the West side are greens and blues. On thing I found refreshing was the number of greens and blues from the top of the mountain all the way down to the base. I gives those who don't have expert ablity to go up and enjoy the views without bitting of more than they can chew on the way down and putting themselves and other in harms way. I really enjoyed the cruisers on the West side; my favorite was Galloping Goose, from the top of Palmyra down to Big Billie's. It was nice and wide, and groomed daily. Others include Sundance, Bridges, and Double Cabin. All were great beginner and intermediate cruisers. Prospect Bowl was also outstanding. It had an untaimed feel to it. You could stay on the marked trails and have a blast or you could make your own trails through the fresh powder. The East side terrian is progressively more difficult. From the blues off lift four, to the blacks off See Forever. Just for the record, I didn't attempt any blacks on purpose. I'm an intermediate and I'm okay with that. The blues were challageing enough for me to practice my skills and still burn my thighs. There are several spas with massages in Telluride and Mountain Village. The best thing about the mountain is NO, and I mean NO lift lines. In three days of skiing I did not have to wait more than two minutes at any one lift. Most of the time I just skied right to the chair and got on. This will maximize your time on the mountain; It felt like time stood still. All and all I feel the mountain layout and terrain will keep me coming back again and again. I did not get bored!!

NYC Prep Postmortem: Amazingly, No One Was Hurt
Except us, the viewers, of course.
Seeing as we the viewers were left feeling bruised, battered, and maybe even a little bit sexually shamed by the first season of NYC Prep, we of course assumed that the people on the show — from the main characters to the guest stars — would feel brutalized by it also. After all, from where we were sitting, nobody came off looking too great (again, that includes us as viewers). But it turns out, people have a pretty thick skin, and everyone we talked to had a pretty positive outlook on how they came off. Take therapist Audrey Jacobs Brockner, for example, who risked her career as a serious headshrinker by going on reality television to talk to a known narcissist and give him off-the-cuff advice. "They're lovely people all the producers," she said. They seemed very attached to the kids."
Audrey said she would have obviously never done any kind of real session for television, that the red-velvet bordello she operated out of was not actually her office, and that PC was not actually her patient—they only had the one conversation. "It was not therapy, clearly," she said. But: "I liked him very much. He is a thoughtful sort of young man. He thinks about himself in sort of a deep way. "
Likewise, Camille's personal stylist Hitha had no complaints, even after getting painted with the bitch brush by producers. "I'm super nice, for all intents and purposes," Hitha told us. "It made it seem like we didn't get along, but we did." Camille, she said, was "unbelievably smart, and super driven, with the most impeccable manners I have ever seen on a 16 year old ... She reminded me of myself," she said.
And even Social Life editor-in-chief Devorah Rose, who came across like a somewhat rude party-crasher, came away with good feelings. She described the filming process as "organic" and said she didn't feel manipulated by Bravo at all. "That's who I am, I live my life out loud. And I love crazy people — I love to have a fun time," she explained of her zany shoot, which ended up with PC shirtless and nuzzling a male photographer. "I didn't even know how old he was. I thought he was 23, and I found out he was 18 and I was like, WHAT? That guy has a beard! And I tried to set him up with a model!" (Rose also adds that PC was the one who was forward with stylist Trey, not the other way around.)
It's the aftermath of the show that Rose says is the bad part. "I think what viewers should understand is that a few hours a week can't capture every aspect of a human's life," she told us. "These characters are actual people, they're much more well rounded than what you're seeing." Rose said she's been the target of mean commentary on blogs, and has received hundreds of e-mails — "some crazy, some not so crazy, a few nice" — after her appearance on the show.
Still, it seems that most of the negative feedback has rolled off the backs of the cast. "I learned that I have a thicker skin than I thought I did," Jessie told The Wall Street Journal. "I learned that there are sometimes nice bloggers, sometimes not. It was definitely an interesting experience. Some people said I am cross-eyed. I am obese. I look like a horse." According to Rose, PC was unfazed as well — even though much of the commentary and speculation was directed his way. "I think PC definitely gets it. In fact, when I was upset, he was the one that was telling me calm down, who cares, people that really know who we are and interact with us and value us aren't going to be affected by all the negative things people are saying," she explained, adding that he tries not to read a lot of the press. "He's so cool and levelheaded and fun, and he doesn't care. He knew what he was getting into, he did it, he came out of it very unscathed by the whole thing." Apparently he's hoping this will boost his acting career.
Jessie even appears to have a sense of humor about the way the show abused her image. "My friend said to me today on the train that there's some 80-year-old guy who's going to probably jerk off to you tonight," she told the Journal. "It's the funniest thing."

- 25-hydroxyvitamin D;
- dietary calcium intake;
- adults;
- men and women
A higher calcium intake is still the primary recommendation for the prevention of osteoporosis, whereas vitamin D deficiency is often not addressed. To study the relative importance of dietary calcium intake and serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] status in regard to hip BMD, 4958 community-dwelling women and 5003 men ≥20 yr of age from the U.S. NHANES III population-based survey were studied. Calcium supplement users and individuals with a prior radius or hip fracture were excluded. We calculated standardized means for BMD by quartiles of sex-specific calcium intake for three 25(OH)D categories (<50, 50–74, and 75+ nM) among men and women, separately controlling for other important predictors of BMD. A higher calcium intake was significantly associated with higher BMD (p value for trend: p = 0.005) only for women with 25(OH)D status <50 nM, whereas calcium intake beyond the upper end of the lowest quartile (>566 mg/d) was not significantly associated with BMD at 25(OH)D concentrations >50 nM. Among men, there was no significant association between a higher calcium intake beyond the upper end of the lowest quartile (626 mg/d) and BMD within all 25(OH)D categories. Among both sexes, BMD increased stepwise and significantly with higher 25(OH)D concentrations (<50, 50–74, 75+ nM; p value for trend: women < 0.0001; men = 0.0001). Among men and women, 25(OH)D status seems to be the dominant predictor of BMD relative to calcium intake. Only women with 25(OH)D concentrations <50 nM seem to benefit from a higher calcium intake.

Thousands of people gathered in London to see in the new year by remembering some of the most best moments of 2012.
Clips from the 2012 Olympic Games featured in an 11-minute fireworks display over the London Eye.
Mayor of London Boris Johnson said: "What an amazing end to an incredible year.
"Watched by hundreds of thousands in the capital and millions around the globe, London has proved, yet again, that it can pull off spectacular world-class events in style."
About 250,000 people were estimated to be in the capital to watch the colourful and noisy display, which featured 12,500 fireworks.
Many of them waited for hours to secure the best viewpoints on the banks of the Thames, but fortunately it was a dry and mild night.
Rob Haine, 30, a computer game programmer from Wakefield, said: "The display was mesmerising, it was a joy to witness.
"I had high expectations but they were completely surpassed.
"I got here at 5pm and have been standing the whole time but it was worth it. It was cool that they got the Olympics into the fireworks."
Sandro Benvenuti, 46, travelled from Italy with his wife and two daughters to see the display.
"We were waiting for six hours but it was fantastic," he said.
"We have fireworks in Italy but those were much better. They went on for longer and the design and special effects were superior."
Lynn Shepherd, 53, from the village of North Newbald, East Yorkshire, praised the "electric atmosphere".
She said: "There's no trouble here. Everyone is having a good time and it's the perfect way to finish 2012."
* One in 10 of us will fail in less than a day to keep a healthy New Year's resolution.
And 29% of our healthy regimes will last only a week, a study says.
Just 3% of the 2,000 adults in a Florida grapefruit poll said they planned to maintain their healthy lifestyle for the whole year and 17% will never get started.
And rather than admit defeat, half of us are willing to lie about sticking to their failed resolution.

What a wonderful stew for St. Patrick's Day! We thoroughly enjoyed it served with a warm slice of fresh beer bread. I did add 1 tsp. of thyme, 2 bay leaves, a sprinkle of hot pepper, and a can of cut green beans. Was done in 6 hours. My husband loved it and said, "How is this different from the stew you usually make?" My response, "It was a whole lot easier to make!" Bye bye old stew, Hello Irish Beew Stew! Thanks a ton, Recipenut!
This was a nice stew, simple to make, I like that I didn't have to brown the meat. I cut the recipe in half and it was great for my husband and I. Will definitely make again soon.
Really Great I added some roasted red peppers and a little crused red pepper for some zing. Really Great looking forward to adding it into regular rotation!!
