He became Israel's most-decorated soldier ever, collecting medals and citations at a historic pace for his heroics on the battlefield and for leading daring commando raids.
As commander of Sayeret Matkal, Barak led the 1972 raid on a hijacked Sabena airliner on the ground in Israel with the commandos disguised as airline technicians. A photograph of Barak standing on the wing in white overalls as the freed hostages were disembarking has become part of Israeli lore. The following year, he led a commando operation in Beirut, sneaking into the city disguised as a woman.
Renowned as a brilliant military strategist, he rocketed through the ranks to become military chief of staff. In 1995, after 36 years in uniform, he made the quick transition to politics.
In less than four years, Barak was elected to parliament, held two top Cabinet posts, took charge of Israel's iconic Labor Party and was elected prime minister — beating Netanyahu in 1999 — on a pledge to reach a long-awaited peace with Israel's enemies.
But his stormy term in office lasted less than two years — the shortest of any elected Israeli premier — and he left under a swell of discontent for his unilateral withdrawal from south Lebanon in 2000, his failed negotiations with the Palestinians and Syria, and a violent Palestinian uprising that erupted under his watch.
Despite the dramatic collapse, Barak credited his wide-reaching offer at Camp David to withdraw from nearly all of the West Bank and Gaza with exposing Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat's essential rejection of peace — a view endorsed by U.S. President Bill Clinton. By offering far-reaching concessions that had never been considered before, such as dividing Jerusalem and evacuating large settlements blocs, Barak also prepared Israeli public opinion for the types of steps it would likely have to take for future peace.
In 2001, Barak was crushed by Ariel Sharon in a special election. On the night of his defeat, Barak retired in dramatic fashion. Over the next few years, he amassed a fortune on the lecture circuit and in the corporate world. He purchased a high-rise Tel Aviv apartment reportedly worth more than $10 million, part of a lavish lifestyle that angered his socialist supporters.
In 2007, he returned to politics, easily recapturing the leadership of the Labor Party and becoming defense minister in a bid to rehabilitate a military that performed below expectations in a war against Hezbollah guerrillas the previous year.
But he remained personally unpopular and his party, which had led Israel to independence and governed it for its first three decades, had lost its public appeal.
After leading Labor to an all-time low of 13 of 120 parliamentary seats in the 2009 election, Barak enraged his dovish base by joining Netanyahu's coalition government.
Israeli hardliners didn't like him any better, accusing him of undercutting the West Bank settlement movement by withholding construction approvals, clearing squatters from West Bank homes and encouraging Netanyahu to support a slowdown in settlement construction. That slowdown, initiated by the United States, has since expired.
Barak eventually broke away from Labor to form his new party, Independence, with a few junior allies. Without its founding father, the future of the party is now in question.
Avraham Diskin, a political analyst at Tel Aviv University, said given Barak's resume "it just isn't worth the effort and humiliation" of fighting for his political survival.
"If he wants to be the defense minister in the next government, it depends more on the relationship he and Bibi have than on whether he has a very tiny section in the Knesset (parliament) or not," he said, referring to Netanyahu by his nickname.
Former general Danny Yatom, a longtime Barak confidant, said he will be remembered most for his attempts at peace.
"Barak's legacy is steadfastly defending the security of the state of Israel alongside a deep understanding that the conflict between us and the Arabs cannot be solved by military means alone," he said. "He tried when he was prime minister, but he did not succeed."

Are enough of us willing to take on voluntary work?
From helping at a charity shop to running the local football team the Government wants us all to to get involved over the next few years as part of the Big Society.
But a new report suggests only one in ten people will volunteer which is not enough to do all the things imagined by the Big Society planners.

I've finally completed my blog design at http://mudbomb.com. I was going for something "different" using the "Frank Blue" style, HEAVILY-modified.
Let me know what you think :-)
Unusal colour choice makes this blog really stand out... it looks fantastic and it looks like no other. Content is entertaining too. Well done.
I like that too !
If you wanted to alter the search box (this is not a suggestion, more a case of where the info is) then check out part #3 of http://www.mfr.f2s.com/graphicalcss/menu/index.html
Oh Wow!. It is almost impossible to be really original but you have done. Brilliant stuff. Congratulations and Welcome.
Very original, congratulations.
One of the perils of such an unusual choice of colours is that some will love it and some will hate it. I, unfortunately, belong to the second category, sorry. It's very well done, but the colours are just not to my taste.
The content, however, is rather funny :)
Uhm... footer is about 40px smaller then the width of other 2 columns (and the header). Dunno if it's on purpose...
Regards, MaxT
The layout is great but your color scheme hurts my eyes just a little bit. The words on the other hand, are quite funny.
The colors on your site are striking! It might not work for everyone, but it certainly makes a different impression, and creates the desire to go back.
I've just borrowed your background image. Let me know if you have a problem, and I'll find a modified version.
Joe - nice site. Good clean look. I too don't care for the colors, but it's just not me that's all. With the background, it looks like I should be putting for birdie on the back nine some where!
At any rate, one thing that I noticed, your links right under the search box are toast. They are squished up, looks like to the width of the "Go" button that's there. Might want to take a look at your div tags and make sure it's OK. Oh, I'm using FF0.8 btw.
I fixed the problem. This appears to be some sort of bug in Mozilla, as all tags are correct and the page is fine in Opera and IE . Mozilla hoses the links under the search box when the
tag is removed between the textarea and the button in the search form. I fixed it by adding a new
after the form.
Thanks for the heads-up, TechGnome.
Doh, I always forget to log-in. Post above was from me.

Microsoft Layoffs Could See Thousands of Staff in the Firing Line This Week
Written Tuesday, July 15, 2014 By Richard WalkerView author's profile
A report suggests that Microsoft could be laying off thousands of employees later this week, potentially exceeding the 5,800 staff let go back in 2009. Bloomberg's report claims that it could be the biggest employee cut in Microsoft history, with the majority of layoffs "probably" hitting the Nokia and Microsoft divisions, as well as its global Xbox team and UK European HQ.
Marketing and engineering departments could also suffer, with the latter including the aforementioned Xbox sectors, according to Bloomberg's sources. The report's sources are apparently individuals "with knowledge of the company's plans", who reckon that Microsoft's restructuring is currently in the planning phases, but could be put into action this week.
As of June 5th, Microsoft's employee count numbers 127,104; 30,000 of whom came with the company's acquisition of Nokia in April. Microsoft has declined to comment on the employee layoffs mooted in the Bloomberg report. Microsoft shares its Q4 financial report on July 22nd, so expect more news before, on or after that date (obviously). We'll have more as we get it.

Heynen, S R; Tanimoto, N; Joly, S; Seeliger, M W; Samardzija, M; Grimm, C (2011). Retinal degeneration modulates intracellular localization of CDC42 in photoreceptors. Molecular Vision, 17:2934-2946.
|Published Version
Purpose: Rho GTPases such as RAS-related C3 botulinum substrate 1 (RAC1) and cell division cycle 42 homolog (S. cerevisiae; CDC42) have been linked to cellular processes including movement, development, and apoptosis. Recently, RAC1 has been shown to be a pro-apoptotic factor in the retina during light-induced photoreceptor degeneration. Here, we analyzed the role of CDC42 in the degenerating retina.
Methods: Photoreceptor degeneration was studied in a mouse model for autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (VPP) with or without a rod-specific knockdown of Cdc42, as well as in wild-type and Cdc42 knockdown mice after light exposure. Gene and protein expression were analyzed by real-time PCR, western blotting, and immunofluorescence. Retinal morphology and function were assessed by light microscopy and electroretinography, respectively.
Results: CDC42 accumulated in the perinuclear region of terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling–negative photoreceptors during retinal degeneration induced by excessive light exposure and in the rd1, rd10, and VPP mouse models of retinitis pigmentosa. The knockdown of Cdc42 did not affect retinal morphology or function in the adult mice and did not influence photoreceptor apoptosis or molecular signaling during induced and inherited retinal degeneration.
Conclusions: Retinal degeneration induces the accumulation of CDC42 in the perinuclear region of photoreceptors. In contrast to RAC1, however, lack of CDC42 does not affect the progression of degeneration. CDC42 is also dispensable for normal morphology and function of adult rod photoreceptor cells.

I tried to post this on the support forum on your site but could not which is why I am posting it here.
I would like the "add a listing" page to show as a drop down on the menu to the main Classifieds page. I set the "add a listing" page as the child of the main Classifieds page and thought this would work. I did not change the permalink. However, when I click on "add a listing", the upload form does not appear, just a blank page.
Is there a way around this?

Dr. Michael Cordonnier says rain helped to maintain good soil moisture last week, mitigating some of the potential harmful impacts of high temps.
The forecast calls for above-normal temps across the Corn Belt, raising moisture requirements.
There is certainly a chance that recent pork loin and rib weakness will set up the market for an exaggerated September surge, but the late-2016 hog and pork outlook does not look encouraging.
Corn ended the day mostly 2 cents lower, with soybeans 7 to 9 cents higher. Wheat posted a daily loss of 10 to 14 cents. Cattle were higher and hogs were weaker.
Our weighted Crop Condition Index for corn rose by 0.28 points from last week and soybeans rose by 0.08.
Rain in the forecast for Mid-South into the northern Mid-Atlantic Region...
Soybeans and corn were pressured by forecasts calling for non-threatening weather into early August. Wheat futures were supported by European crop woes. Cattle futures surged on short-covering after last Friday's mildly friendly Cattle on Feed Report.

"Why Tolerate Religion?" reviewed in the Philosophical Review
The review is by philosopher Samuel Rickless (UC San Diego); Philosophical Review is the leading philosophy journal in English. Professor Rickless writes that Why Tolerate Religion?,
is short, an enjoyable read, accessible to the generally educated public but alive to a number of sophisticated philosophical ideas and distinctions, its prose crisp and straightforward, its attitude no-nonsense, its conclusion provocative, and its arguments clear, concise, and analytically rigorous.
Professor Rickless goes on to offer some reasonable (though, to my mind, not persuasive) criticisms as well. (The contrast between this review, by a philosopher and scholar, and a political hit piece is instructive!)

"Why Tolerate Religion?" redux
Since we recently commented on a not very edifying review, here's a new one that is both informative and (almost entirely) accurate about the arguments in the book (see it's not that hard!) and makes some fair criticisms.
ADDENDUM: Given the time of year, I should note that Why Tolerate Religion? will fit nicely in most stockings!

"Why Tolerate Religion?" has clearly touched a nerve: some comments on Michael McConnell's review
Why Tolerate Religion? has had a good 12 months, with almost 3,000 copies sold, nice reviews in the popular media in Britain, Italy, Denmark, Sweden and elsewhere, and French and Italian translations already in the works (and an English paperback edition next fall). While "new atheist" types have generally been critical of me for not being intolerant of religion, some religious believers have, not surprisingly, taken a different view. The Family Research Council (a far right religious organization in the U.S.) condemned the book as, "[O]ne of the most troubling and intellectually discreditable books by a serious American scholar in some time." (I have urged Princeton University Press to put this on the dustjacket!) More soberly, First Things, a conservative Catholic magazine of ideas, worried that I had outlined "what may well become the theoretical consensus used to reinterpret the First Amendment." This struck me, but not them, as wild optimism. Most recently, an Elder of the Mormon Church gave a major public address in which he discussed my argument, concurring with my defense of liberty of conscience, but disagreeing that religion should not be legally "special."
Although my 2001 paper on "Legal Realism and Legal Positivism Reconsidered" (Ethics, 2001) was chosen as "one of the ten best papers" of the year by The Philosopher's Annual; although my 2002 book Nietzsche on Morality (Routledge) has been called "arguably the most important book on Nietzsche's philosophy in the past twenty years" (Journal of Nietzsche Studies, 2010); and although my 2007 collection of essays Naturalizing Jurisprudence (Oxford) was lauded as "an important book by one of the most influential legal philosophers of our time" (Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews, 2010), I have to confess that the Family Research Council, First Things, and the Mormon Church let these momentous works pass in silence (so did the Yale Law Journal and Harvard Law Review, see infra). Go figure?
But not Why Tolerate Religion?!
Now within academia, where religion looms less large, the reaction has been friendlier than in the public religious sphere. The political theorist John Gray, writing in Britain's New Statesman, called the book, "A model of clarity and rigour and at points strikingly original, this is a book that anyone who thinks seriously about religion, ethics and politics will benefit from reading." Religious liberty scholar Christopher Eisgruber, formerly of NYU Law School, and now President of Princeton University, said, "Every reader will learn something from this remarkable book, and, beginning now, every serious scholar of religious toleration will have to contend with Leiter's bold claims." And the Harvard Law Review opined that the book "exposes several tenuous assumptions underlying the predominant justifications for religious exemptions. At the same time, it provides a fresh and intuitive framework for analyzing conscience-based objections to facially neutral laws that should appeal to legal practitioners, jurists, and philosophers alike."
Given the preceding, I was gratified and a bit surprised that the most distinguished and accomplished conservative scholar of law and religion in the United States, Michael McConnell of Stanford, took the time to pen a lengthy review of my book in the Yale Law Journal: that he felt the need to write 40 pages on a 185-page book tells me I must be on to something! (The second most distinguished and accomplished conservative scholar of law and religion [yes, I rank those too], Michael Stokes Paulsen at St. Thomas, will be reviewing it for the Michigan Law Review, and I'm looking forward to that too!) Although McConnell gets the majority of the arguments right, parts of the review do involve mistakes and misrepresentations that sometimes make it read a bit like a "hit job" on a book that, as First Things worried, might actually affect the consensus. (I'll comment on a few of those, below.)
Professor McConnell makes clear at the start why he is worried (citations omitted):
Religious beliefs have always generated controversy. But religious freedom—the right of individuals and groups to form their own religious beliefs and to practice them to the extent consistent with the rights of others and with fundamental requirements of public order and the common good—has long been a bedrock value in the United States and other liberal nations. Religious freedom is one thing nearly all Americans, left and right, religious and secular, have been able to agree upon, perhaps because it protects all of us. Atheists are protected from imposition of prayer and Bible reading in state schools; churches are protected from interference with the hiring of ministers; religious minorities are protected from majoritarian legislation indifferent or hostile to their concerns. Progressive churches are protected when they oppose segregation or counsel draft resisters; traditionalist churches are protected when they oppose abortion or operate faith-based schools; nontraditional faith groups with unfamiliar worship practices are allowed to carry them out in peace. Because none of us can predict who will hold political power, all of us can sleep more soundly if we know that our religious freedom does not depend on election returns.
When the Supreme Court narrowed its interpretation of the Free Exercise Clause in 1990, in the so-called "Peyote Case," Employment Division v. Smith, Congress passed the corrective Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) by unanimous vote in the House and a margin of 97-3 in the Senate. Supporters included the ACLU, the National Association of Evangelicals, People for the American Way, the American Jewish Congress, the Christian Legal Society, and virtually every other religious and civil liberties group. Recently, however, this consensus seems to be weakening—largely from fallout over culture-war issues such as abortion and the legal recognition of same-sex relationships. Many activists on these issues see religion as antagonistic to their interests, and are responding in kind. A new whiff of intolerance is in the air.
University of Chicago law professor and legal philosopher Brian Leiter has entered the debate with his new book Why Tolerate Religion? His answer? Although we should not persecute religious believers, religion as such does not warrant any "special" legal solicitude such as that provided by the Religion Clauses of the First Amendment. "[T]here is no apparent moral reason why states should carve out special protections that encourage individuals to structure their lives around categorical demands that are insulated from the standards of evidence and reasoning we everywhere else expect to constitute constraints on judgment and action." Leiter argues, moreover, that it would be consistent with "principled toleration" for the secular state to affirmatively discriminate against religious believers in access to public spaces, such as by barring student Bible clubs from meeting on public school property, even when every other form of student organization is free to meet. So long as religious believers retain the right to express their own beliefs (including wearing religious symbols and clothing), the regime may advocate a "Vision of the Good" that is "irreligious" and may selectively deny religious believers and religious speakers equal access to public resources and opportunities.
The final paragraph is a very fair summary of my conclusions, though it omits the fact that I also think religious establishment is compatible with "principled toleration" (McConnell does note that later in the review). My book is silent on all the "culture war" issues, except the French culture war issue about banning the head scarf and Jewish skull caps in the public schools, which I argue is a case of impermissible intolerance. I was surprised, however, by McConnell's association of my argument with "intolerance," since it is a resounding defense of liberty of conscience (as the Elder of the Mormon Church correctly noted), including the liberty of religious conscience, but it denies that liberty of religious conscience is more important than other kinds.
Indeed, it is a curious feature of McConnell's discussion that he never offers a counter-argument to this central thesis, other than noting that it entails some conclusions to which he is unsympathetic. If a demand for "equality of conscience" constitutes "intolerance," then I will plead guilty. The closest he comes to contesting the core thesis is to deny the plausibility (at 798-800) of one of my examples of the demands of non-religious conscience. Perhaps McConnell is right that the example is ill-chosen. But only if McConnell believes that the non-religious never have conscientious obligations on a par with those of the religious would this matter. Does he really believe that? He is coy, and I'm unsure, but I would hope he doesn't accept such an absurd conclusion. [Note: I will cite McConnell's review by page number, and my book as WTR followed by page numbers.]
Among hostile readers, McConnell is admirable for how much he gets right about the actual argument of my book. And he makes two quite important, critical points, that deserve further discussion by those interested in these issues (including me when I return to them!):
(1) I do assume, reasonably but without extended argument, that the most epistemically reliable standards of reason and evidence are those that have emerged from the natural and human sciences since the scientific revolution. McConnell is right to call attention to this assumption and the role it plays in parts of my argument (though not quite as many as he appears to believe) (786-789). His concrete challenges to the assumption are, alas, mostly silly, including invoking the authority of Thomas Kuhn and Richard Rorty (apparently unaware of the vast literature post-Kuhn in the last fifty years, or that Rorty is not, shall we say, a philosophical "authority" in these matters), and invoking Alvin Plantinga, a leading philosopher of religion and apologist for the rationality of religious belief. He doesn't actually defend Plantinga's view on the merits, he just complains that I dismiss them without considering their merits. Fair enough, I do invoke the philosophical consensus about the rationality of religious belief, and for a simple reason: others have written other books on this subject (e.g., Mackie's The Miracle of Theism), and I can't do better than what they have already done. McConnell seems miffed by invocations of epistemic authority, even though his essay is awash in such moves--for example, when he objects that I can't say it is "unwarranted" to believe in God when "many persons, including thinkers of the first rank" (788) do so. He can't, unfortunately, have it both ways: if the opinions of "thinkers of the first rank" count, then the fact that most disagree with Plantinga also counts. McConnell is right to call attention to the fact that if the philosophical consensus is wrong about the epistemic status of some religious beliefs, that will affect some of my arguments (though not, e.g., the ones he singles out at p. 801). But the only relevant response is on the merits of the epistemic arguments, about which McConnell is utterly silent.
(2) In the final chapter of the book, I argue that exemptions from neutral laws of general applicability should be available to all conscientious objectors, as long as they do not involve shifting burdens on to others. Although McConnell confuses the idea of "burdens" with the Millian Harm Principle (803, 805), he correctly objects that I do not say nearly enough about what constitutes acceptable and unacceptable burdens to help with the resolution of concrete cases, and offers some useful examples (803-807). He even notes that the "logic of [Leiter's] arguments may be more supportive of these claims for exemption than the more generalized rhetoric...would suggest" (807), though I would suggest the problem is that he read things into the "rhetoric" and ignored the "logic"!
In what follows, I want to correct five mistakes about or misrepresentations of the argument, and then comment on three misunderstandings or confusions (readers of my book will have to decide whether I am culpable for the latter--some reviewers have had related confusions, but others have not). Most of the mistakes are minor (though some revealing), while the misunderstandings are perhaps more significant. I conclude with a brief comment on a "cheap shot" that ill-befits a scholar of McConnell's reputation.
One generic comment: McConnell, unsurprisingly given his expertise, mostly talks about the U.S. First Amendment, but my book is not about American constitutional law, and the First Amendment figures only as an occasional example, along with cases from France, Italy, Germany, Canada, and elsewhere. I am interested in whether there is a moral justification for giving religion special legal solicitude, as all the Western democracies do; it is clear from my book that I think American First Amendment jurisprudence is in many respects--from "hate speech" to free exercise--morally indefensible. When McConnell chastises me for ignoring the history of the First Amendment, notes differences between my view and the justifications offered in Employment Division v. Smith (797-799), or notes that I disagree with the outcome in Smith given the facts (803), he is having a dialogue with himself, not my book. I won't belabor these distractions in what follows.

34th Annual Scientific Meeting
June 9 - 10, 2017
Wintergreen Resort
Wintergreen, VA
Greetings to All Virginia Ophthalmologists:
I am happy to write to my colleagues and report to you that our organization, the Virginia Society of Eye Physicians and Surgeons, is strong, vibrant, and hard at work for all of us. If you are currently a member, thank you, and please remit your yearly dues. If you have not yet joined, please stand with your colleagues and help us with our professional efforts.
Our society is focused on education, advocacy and collegiality. I have written before about how much of what affects our daily practice life is handled at the local or state level rather than on a national level, and therefore active participation in our organization is vital for the long term health of Ophthalmology.
Whether you have used the Society this year for education at our fantastic annual meeting, or called upon us for help with coverage for a new procedure from an insurance company, or joined us in calling upon legislators, or attended our ICD-10 coding seminar, or simply dropped in for social contact at our board meetings, we hope you enjoyed the experience and found it beneficial.
We certainly realize that the trends in employment in medicine in general and ophthalmology in specific are changing. Whether you practice as an individual, in a small or large group, as an employed physician as part of a multi-specialty or single specialty group, or are in academics, we want you with us, and we want to be part of your voice.
Recently, while on vacation at the beach, I was sharing with my brother (who is non-medical) that some of my proudest achievements in Ophthalmology were when I made systemic diagnoses on patients who presented with eye symptoms. I particularly remember one young man who presented with iritis, who I was able to work up and diagnose with HLA B27 positive disease. He later related to me that he had been chronically ill and not feeling well since his teenage years, and the source had eluded diagnosis. Now that he was being treated by a rheumatologist he was able to enjoy life again, and he credited me for it. I went on to tell my brother that the insurer did not want me to work up my patient's iritis; they would have been happy for me to simply prescribe steroids and be done with it. As a solo voice I did not have much sway with the insurer (and I would not have had much sway with an ACO or with a risk sharing multi-specialty group) but as a member of our society, I was able to call upon our resources and was able to prevail and practice medicine in the best way for my patient. The ability to practice as a professional, and be recognized as one while delivering the best care for our patients lies at the heart of why our society exists.
Thank you for what you do in bringing the best of eye care and ophthalmic surgery to your patients. We need your assistance in creating and maintaining a vibrant Virginia Society that works for all of us. Please join us in maintaining a strong, vigorous voice for our profession.
Geoffrey G. Cooper, MD, FACS

Important Updates to VA Board of Pharmacy on Physician Dispensing
The Virginia Board of Pharmacy has published a revised and updated Guidance Document on "Physicians Dispensing Drugs" (June 14, 2016). Dispensing by a physician means the providing of drugs to patients to take with them away from the physician's place of practice. Some levels of dispensing require licenses from the Board of Pharmacy. If your practice is involved in dispensing of any kind, you should familiarize yourself with this document and the relevant regulations to ensure you are in compliance. You can access the document here:

The requested URL /index.php was not found on this server.
We have only just discovered the work of Richard Gordon. It happens sometimes when one is surfing the Internet looking at one thing you stumble on someone else. It was with great shame that how we discovered Richard Gordon's work was through his obituary at pdnonline.org with the title of "Street Photographer and Critic Richard Gordon Dies at 67" so we went searching for examples of his work. So far we've found a link on Wikipedia about Richard Gordon and an interview on boywithgrenade.org of Richard Gordon. Shawn Nee who runs the blog (boywithgrenade.org) did an interview with Richard Gordon in 2009 (which is well worth reading) where he states "I don't much care for the category "street photographer." For my own work, I prefer Walker Evans' idea of "documentary style."" get his work is based in the street. There are so many photographers who are now often referred to as street photographers we should probably use a more interesting term and that would be a photographer who is interested in the social landscape. And this is what Richard Gordon's photography was primarily concerned with. His book American Surveillance was self published on his own publishing company chimaerapress.com. you can read a review of American Surveillance at photoeye According to Wikipedia Richard Caldwell lived in Berkeley California,
The Gitterman Gallery in New York just had an exhibition of his work between September 13 – November 17, 2012, so some of you may be more familiar with his work that we were. His work was featured in the exhibition "Exposed: Voyeurism, Surveillance, and the Camera Since 1870" at the Tate Modern, London in 2010, which unfortunately we did not get to see.
Unfortunately when you use image search on Google you do not get very many images come up straightaway, We had to be a bit more ingenious to find examples of his work.
We particularly like the images that we have found so far and would love to see more of his work either online or in print.

TrueType fonts editor. Allows for editing vector-based glyphs
User Ratings
User Reviews
I finally found a decent replacement for the now defunct "Font Forge" project. ("Source Code ONLY" projects -- that assume all end users are proficient in compiling binaries for themselves -- are less than useless to me.) This project works quite well on a Mac Pro with Mac OS X 10.9.1 under Java 7U51 and I am delighted to be able to pursue typography as a hobby IF I can get my head around it! GREAT Work! Thank You!
It works ok on 32bit, however on 64 bit system, you need to modify the run.cmd file :: Check Windows Version if exist "%WINDIR%\SysWOW64\%JAVA_EXE%" ( :: Vista 64 set JAVA_CMD="%WINDIR%\SysWOW64\JAVAW.EXE" ) else ( :: Anything else set JAVA_CMD="JAVAW.EXE" ) then replace java.exe by %JAVA_CMD%
I logged in specifically to say thank you. Huge thank you. I needed to change metadata of the font (name, family, subfamily etc) and after spending about 5-6 hours instaling dozens of uselless font managers (all of them falselly promissing me to change font name while actually changing only the FILENAME) - this tiny, nifty little tool solved everything in less than a minute. Seems to be the only free utility on the net which allows this (with the exception of full editors such as Fontforge and Birdfont but to install them for this purpose is kind of shooting a mosquito from an RPG :) So anyway, thank you again and please do not abandon this soft (ah it looks abandoned sad to say..)
After 2 hours of trying to figure out how TTF truetype embedding protection works, TTFEdit solved it in 2 minutes. Thanks!
good work

Kingman council has options for filling mayoral vacancy
By Doug McMurdo
KINGMAN - As the City Council prepares for life without Mayor John Salem, who will step down later this summer, members at tonight's meeting could approve one of two proposed ordinances related to how mid-term mayoral vacancies are filled now and in the future.
The city code mandates an election be held in such events, but that code was enacted in the early 1980s and is in conflict with a state law legislators passed in 2011, which calls for mayors to be replaced by appointment until the term expires or the next regular election is held.
In Salem's case, the next election is November 2014 and his term expires Dec. 31 of that year.
City Attorney Carl Cooper discovered the city code was in conflict with state statutes and recommended that City Council appoint Vice Mayor Janet Watson to fill the seat until Dec. 31, 2014.
The City Council has since learned the law allows members to appoint anyone who is interested in the position as long as they meet the minimal requirements. There are two of them: Live within the city limits and be eligible to vote.
At tonight's meeting, council members may approve one of two proposed ordinances Cooper has drafted as requested at the July 2 meeting.
One would make it a policy that the vice mayor automatically assumes the mayor's seat in the event of a mid-term resignation. The other would allow the council to appoint "any qualified and interested elector" to fill the remaining term.
Staff will recommend the vice mayor get the nod.
Other items of interest for tonight's meeting also involve vacancy appointments and changes to the city code.
The Economic Development Marketing Commission has three vacant seats. Two are for Kingman residents and one is for a Mohave County resident.
The City Council has three applicants for each from which to choose.
The Planning and Zoning Commission has a vacancy following the resignation of Commissioner Shawn Walsh, who has moved from the area.
Three residents have applied and the Planning and Zoning Commission left the decision up to City Council.
The city attorney has modified several city codes to conform to new legislation regarding consolidated elections lawmakers passed this spring.
City Council elections will occur in the fall of 2014 rather than the spring as has occurred in the past, which will add six months to the terms of the current council members who face re-election campaigns next year.
Tonight's meeting begins at 5:30 p.m. in Council Chambers, 310 N. Fourth Street.

"French Creek Game Farm "WV Wildlife Center"" French Creek by butterflykizzez04
French Creek Travel Guide: 8 reviews and 19 photos
Sunday, April 17th, 2005, my cousin Shari and I decided to take the kids on a drive into the mountains. My dau. Noel is 9 and her kids, Tayler is 7 and Cullen is 5.
This drive took us about 2 hrs from our hometown of Ripley, WV and we took backroads via Rt.33
This picture was taken at the first exhibit you see of the animals. This is the Buffalo enclosure.
The admission to the park is very reasonable...$3 for adults and $1.50 for kids under 15
French Creek Game Park has been renamed the West Virginia Wildlife Center. We got off the Buckhannon exit on Rt 33 and turned on to Rt. 20. The park was located 9 miles on Rt. 20 from Rt. 33.
There are several fast food restaurants at that exit as well as gasoline stations. Once you pass that area, there is actually nothing for awhile.
We lucked out and this was a beautiful day. It was about 77 degrees and the pathway is marked through nice dense forest..It is a lovely park.
The walking loop to the animals is less than a mile and a 1/2.. (1 1/2 mile walk) so it wasn't a bad little stroll. Some of it is uphill, but they do have wheelchair ramps to go past the inclines.
- Pros:Seeing lots of great animals in the natural envirnoment
- Cons:Not more animals..kids wanted more..lol
- In a nutshell:Great afternoon with the kids, and not expensive!

You guys realize that Wasteland is not in the campaign because it is a CoD2 remake, that is why it sucks and is wide open.
That and it slowed down lightweight by .3, it was 1.10x now it's 1.7x. Idk why they slowed it down.
Just got Red Tiger and Mastery for ACR, best gun in the game.
Maybe this opens up room to resign Damon... IF BORAS WASN'T SUCH A PRICK!
My dream, I am galling asleep waiting to find out who we get
Now I must burn my Kei jersey
Omg, M's just traded us Felix, Lee, and Ichiro all for Kei Igawa!!!! We got robbed :(
Hehe, this made me giggle
Cashman doesn't sleep and if he ever did he would be able to make a trade while sleeping
King Felix acctually is a legit possibility now that I think about it. If we could get another team involved then I don't see why it would be a complete impossibility.
And Lincecum would also cost the whole farm system so stop mentioning him, he is nothig more than a wet dream.
King Felix?!?!? They got Lee!!!
Hey I can dream, right
I want Javy or Jair Jurjens(sp? Idc, I'm tired)
When did you buy it? I only ask because I am sure prices have gone up recently.
Ok, so I am sick and tired of having to play live in my family room and getting kicked out because someone wants to watch tv, so I wanna buy a wifi live adapter. Only there is one problem, I can't...

we need to make a serious push for Chapman IMO
Tigers said they no longer want him and that is when they finally agreed on a deal, so now we know we can replace Coke easily


text: I played with this plugin a while back and am in the process of installing it for customer. Is there a way to import a populated csv or tab-delimited file so that I won't have to manually enter in a few hundred stores? Looks like support for this plugin is extinct and so is the upgrade site.

I'm designing an app that allows users to flip between multiple pages in a ViewPager. I've been struggling trying to figure out how it is possible to remove a Fragment instance from a page when it is no longer visible on screen, cache it (to, say, a HashMap), and then restore it so that when the user flips back to that page, the views and everything else in it will be in the same state it was before removal. For example, my first page is a login screen that makes certain layout elements on that particular page visible/invisible on a successful login. When I flip forward enough pages then flip back to the first page, the layout is reset. This becomes more of a problem for another one of my pages which contains a huge, horizontal/vertical scrolling grid of data that I use a thread in the background to draw when it initializes. I use a progress dialog to notify the user of loading progress and that becomes really annoying everytime I have to load it.
So I did some research...
I browsed through the source code for FragmentStatePageAdapter and in the destroyItem() callback, the state of the Fragment instance being removed is saved to an ArrayList. When a new instance of the Fragment is being created in the instantiateItem() callback, if an instance of an item doesn't already exist (they keep track of this by using an ArrayList), a new Fragment instance is created and its saved state is initialized with the corresponding Fragment.SavedState data. Unfortunately, this data does not include the state that the Views were in although I noticed that for pages with a GridView/ListView, the state of the Views were somehow restored (if I scrolled to some random position, flipped a few pages and came back, it would not be reset).
According to the API:
The saved state can not contain dependencies on other fragments -- that is it can't use putFragment(Bundle, String, Fragment) to store a fragment reference because that reference may not be valid when this saved state is later used. Likewise the Fragment's target and result code are not included in this state.
Being a noob to Android, I'm not quite sure I understand the last statement.
That being said, is there any way to cache View state? If not, I think I'll just go ahead and go with leaving all the fragment pages in memory.

Claire has managed quite well since moving off her parents farm and into a quaint studio in Angoulême. Her supermarket cashiers job pays the bills, but more importantly, it promises Claire enough spare time to design the intricately beautiful embroideries that are her passion. But all this is jeopardized when Claire learns that she is pregnant, at the tender age of 17.
Deciding to give birth anonymously, she finds refuge with Madame Melikian, an embroiderer for haute couture designers. Madame Melikian has buried herself in work following the death of her beloved son. Day by day, stitch by stitch, as Claires belly grows rounder, the threads of embroidery create a filial bond between them. In time, the grief-stricken mentor and her anxious apprentice will stop protecting themselves and start helping one another.

Saving In .GIF Problems!!!
When I save a glitter doll to my computer it ALWAYS saves it as .gif without me telling it to...well lately it's only saving it as .bmp which doesn't glitter! I thought it might just be my computer, but then I asked a friend and it was happening to her too. Is there anyone else that can't save an animated image as .gif to their computer?
Also, if you know how to fix it please help!
(And yes, I tried changing the format manually, but it's only giving me the option to save it as .bmp, I've also tried just typing .gif after the image, but nothing will recognize it)
Also: if you CAN save it in .gif when you open it on your computer, does it still animate?
try uploading your glitter to this site and then changing the format which is in the right colum . I hope this helps.
I just tried the glitter thing and it works for me completely.You are talking about the doll palace glitter option correct?
It's not that I need the image in .gif, it's that I need the animation. If I were to upload the image to a hosting site it still won't glitter because the image I'm uploading didn't glitter to begin with because either TDP or my computer wouldn't save it in a animation-able format.
What I would like to know is if any other Premi's are having this issue as well, because if they're not then I can go about trying to see what's up with my computer, but like I said earlier, someone else is having troubles with the animations from TDP as well, so I don't think it's my computer.
Thanks for trying though!
If you're premi, can you please check to see if you can save animations? And if it lets you save as .gif, can you open it on your computer and let me know if it's animating offline?
Much Appreciated! (Please Help! lol)
It's working again, must have been a glitch or something.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
And now it's not working again...what the heck?! Oh and it IS on TDP...
Everything's working fine for me. No issues with animation, all dolls saving as .gif. And the gif files are still animated when I view them through My Computer.
I had that problem once; have you tried cleaning out your temporary internet files and/or cookies?
I'll try that the next time it happens and report back with tthe results, thanks!
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Thanks Miranda!

I have more than two very old HDDs in a softraid(4) RAID1 mirroring discipline on OpenBSD.
It looks like some of the underlying physical drives may be seeing some I/O errors; but prior to a complete replacement of such physical drives, one at a time, I wanted to ensure that I really don't need any data off of it anymore.
Is there any way to check the integrity of the arrays, prior to replacing one of the drives, to avoid surprises years down the line?

text: I'm helping some friends irl(I might put it online as well, but idk) get into the VGC game and plan to write a guide for them to use. I want it to be useful to newbies and people who know a little bit about battling already. These are the things I've got so far on my list of this to cover. This guide is for VGC12(since it is most similar to GBU) and will include VGC13 information too when available. VGC Guide Points/Index Beginners - EV training/EV Hotspots in BW1+2, Natures/Synchronize - IVs and how to get good ones. - Soft Resetting guide (will list popular legendaries, where to catch them, and their max stats with their most useful nature(s).(Might be moved to advanced) - Possible Catching strategy guide.(False Swipe, Mean Look, Spore etc.) - Strong Pokemon and Weak Pokemon (What not to do at a stoplight use.) Any player - Popular Strategies (TR, Sun, Rain, etc.) - Advanced Combonations (VolcTop, Disquake, Protexplosion, etc.) - Countering the "Metagame" and how Unique Pokemon give you an upperhand. - (Not certain on this one)Base Stats guide to popular Pokemon (What pokemon like Thundurus, Garchomp etc. stats are like at Lv.50 with certain spreads) - Movesets guide to VGC 12. (I don't think smogon's 1 set per VGC pokemon is enough) - Movests guide to VGC 13. Advanced information - Brief info on RNG abuse (IV TImefinding and PID advancing stuff)(5th gen) I think I've covered almost everything, anything else I should add/remove?

I use this adhesive alot! As many scrappers, I have a few that I use but this one is great to put items down and then if I change my mind I can move it and put a little permanent adhesive down later when I'm positive. Some people have told me it is difficult to load, but I didn't have a problem. There is even a little picture on the case. I think its great!
I have been using Dotto Dots for many years. I so glad they still come in refills. I feel so "green" using refills instead of ordering all that throw-a-way plastic. I'm still using my three originals. They are so smooth to run. Just love them.
this is the only adhesive I use. its great! I love that if you place something on the LO and then want to move it, this adhesive allows you to do so without any tearing. And the adhesive wipes off with only a finger.
i've been using this adhesive for five years... tried another and hated it. these are the best!! i always buy them in bulk. even several years later.. i can reposition something and the adhesive still works!
