The wheels of The Black Doll Affair movement began turning in 2007. Four years later, for its commitment in philanthropy and efforts to change the way black girls and women are perceived and perceive themselves; BDA has boarded thousands of supportive members called The Black Dolls. Entities such as Essence Magazine, The Tom Joyner Morning Show, The Microsoft Company, Meetup Inc., Mattel and the Dove Campaign for Real Beauty have each given boost to the BDA little movement that could. In 2009, supported by Georgia's Governor, Mayor, Atlanta City Council, GA House of Representatives and the GA State Senate, BDA received a Proclamation for Black Doll Affair Day [December 12] in the State of Georgia! The Black Dolls went on invitation to Congressman John Lewis' Washington DC office and President Obama's White House. Recently, BDA received a Volunteer Service Award from President Obama.
"As we take our movement for the first time into South Carolina, The Black Dolls and I are pleased to partner with the YWCA of The Upper Lowlands. With similar missions to empower women and girls these types of Black Doll Affairs provide opportunity for meaningful dialogue between moms and daughters about our choices and our self worth." said, Dana Hill.
The Black Doll Affair & YWCA of the Upper Lowlands Town Hall Meeting is free and will be held from 12pm-2pm at the Opera House--21 North Main Street from 12:00 to 2:00 pm.

About The Black Doll Affair
Doll tests have revealed that black children prefer white dolls and view black dolls as ugly and bad. The Black Doll Affair is a social club of black women called The Black Dolls. To reverse doll tests results and remind black girls of their inner and outer beauty, these role models engage in philanthropic affairs, donate toy black dolls to little girls, have self-esteem building play dates with teens and host fun events (Black Doll Affairs) that uplift the black woman and increases her pride in hue. These are the "Affairs" of The Black Dolls! Recipients of President Obama's Volunteer Service Award, The Black Dolls range in shade and shape. Eighteen years and older, from college students to grandmothers, career women to ladies of leisure, they are role models that band together to tackle the black family's issues with shadeism, self hatred and low self-worth. To express the importance of community service, annually they donate hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars to charitable causes that affect all races. These are the Affairs of The Black Dolls and their mission is to change the way black girls are perceived and, more importantly, how they perceive themselves. More at: www.blackdollaffair.com

How to Repair a Car
Tips For Boosting Your Car's Performance
If you work for a ride sharing company, you will want to ensure you are maximizing your profit margins on each ride, right? Well, if your car is under performing, then you could be spending more than you would like to on gas and even major car repairs, which can end up reducing the amount of money you are actually making in your ride sharing business. To ensure your car is performing efficiently and that you can boost your daily profits, you will want to obtain a car tune up or have the following inspected: Tire Inspections: Having to spend money on replacement tires means money out of your business. To ensure you can reduce the amount of times you need to replace your tires, you will want to obtain routine tire inspections. This will allow you to be informed of the health of your tires so you can have air added to them, have your tires rotated or have your tires balanced. These services can increase the lifespan of your tires, which helps you increase your profit margins. Engine Tune-ups: Because you do a heavy amount of driving on a day to day basis, minimizing your car's fuel consumption is a big way to decrease your business expenses, resulting in higher profit margins. To ensure you are getting the best mileage out of your car, you will want to obtain routine engine tune-ups. This will allow your engine to obtain fresh and clean new oil, obtain intake upgrades and maintenance, and new belts. These upgrades, repairs, and maintenance will help increase your vehicle's horsepower and improve the overall efficiency of your engine and this will limit how much fuel your vehicle will utilize. Electrical Modifications and Maintenance: The last thing you will want when trying to reduce your business expenses is having to pay for a towing service just to have your car towed and fixed at a repair shop. To ensure your battery or electrical system doesn't prevent your car from starting, you will want to receive frequent electrical services. A mechanic will be able to test and diagnose any electrical issues such as your alternator, battery, and starter. Based on the results, you can obtain new and more efficient components which won't only help prevent your car from dying on you, but will allow you to start your vehicle with minimum fuel consumption. Not only will these services and repairs help increase your mileage, but it can also give your vehicle the performance and ability to run more efficiently, reducing and limiting normal wear and tear that a vehicle can obtain when doing an extensive amount of...read more
Moving Towards Automation: Auto-Pilot Features On New Cars And Why You May Want Them
In the 1980s, people were promised that the future in automotive products would bring them flying cars and cars that drove themselves. Thirty years later, cars still do not fly, but many of them do have a few "auto-pilot" features. The futuristic expectations of Generation X continues to drive car design and technology, and you can buy a new car that not only looks futuristic but drives like it too. Here are few auto-pilot features on current and upcoming new cars, and why you may want them. Rear View, Real Time Video Cameras More than just a video camera and surveillance system in your dashboard, many cars that now have this feature also have an alarm system to alert you to the fact that there is someone or something directly behind your vehicle. Different models have slightly different alarm alerts; some will beep or ping endlessly, while others actually speak to you to alert you and draw attention to the dashboard's video camera. The entire rear view video camera system and warning system effectively assist any driver that cannot or does not turn his or her head and upper torso to look behind the vehicle before backing out, thereby preventing many an accident. Auto Park/Park Assist Parallel parking is an age-old frustration for any driver, since it requires lots of practice and a lot of skill. If you are off by even a little bit when you begin to sidle the car into the space, you will park crooked, or worse, hit another car. Now, you do not have to worry about that skill anymore. Auto park or park-assist features flip on with a button, and the car does all of the parking for you. The only thing you have to do is line up your vehicle with the vehicle ahead of you before you turn on the park assist/auto park button. You may want this feature on your next new car if you live in a large city where parallel parking is a daily activity and you want to prevent any accidents from occurring. Fully Automated Car/Driverless Vehicle A couple of car manufacturers are currently working on a completely driverless or fully automated vehicle. The auto-pilot system on these vehicles will allow you to drive greater distances without stopping. If you put the vehicle on auto-pilot and then accidentally fall asleep in the car, you will not have to worry about getting into an accident because the car is completely in control. The truly driverless version does not even seat you where the driver normally sits, but instead places you to the passenger side of the vehicle. Although these new cars are still in the testing phase, it is highly likely that they will be a reality in the next...read more
Scary Car Issues That Are Often Just Minor Brake Problems
One of the worst things about car problems is that when the symptoms occur, you may not know exactly what's happening. Fortunately, brake problems are often among some of the easier issues to deal with overall. Here are a few common symptoms people who own cars complain of that are often just brake issues. Shaking Steering Wheel Having your steering wheel shake in your hands while you're driving can be disconcerting to say the least. This can often simply be attributed to a malfunctioning brake rotor. This often happens when the rotor gets too hot and warps due to the metal becoming malleable. If you or someone else has a habit of "riding" the brakes, this is definitely an issue to look into for your car. High-Pitched "Screaming" Noise It's definitely not surprising if you're inclined to believe the worst whenever you hear screaming or screeching noises coming from your car. If they happen most often when you're braking, this is a good indication that you should check your braking system first because chances are good that it's the brake pads. This often happens when the pads are worn out enough that the two parts of metal are hitting each other directly. If you catch this early enough, you can avoid paying much more for a new braking system. Brake pads themselves are a relatively cheap brake repair in comparison. This is going to be rotor damage, which is a complex and expensive enterprise. Pedal Pushes Way Too Far If your brake pedal goes all the way to the floor while not giving you adequate braking, this means that you likely have low brake pressure. It can also mean that you have any number of other issues such as air inside of the braking line or even a problem with a cylinder. You really need the brake pedal to be stiff when you hit it in order to be adequately safe while driving. Additionally, if you ever find your brake doing this, you need to get the brakes checked out quickly to figure out what's actually causing the weak brake response. The more you put it off, the more of an issue it could be, and relatively cheap brake procedures will get more expensive for every day you let the damage rack up. Don't be afraid of the symptom, it's the cause you should be worried about, after all is said and...read more
4 Benefits Of Shopping At Buy Here, Pay Here Dealerships
Buy Here Pay Here (BHPH) dealerships offer an attractive alternative to traditional dealerships, especially for shoppers who have a checkered credit history. If you're in the market for a reliable car, then you'll want to find out all about the benefits a typical BHPH dealership offers over other used car dealers: Easier Access to Financing It can be difficult for buyers with less-than-stellar credit to find reasonable financing options through traditional means. Those who aren't able to secure financing through their bank, credit union or a third-party finance company may be able to receive financing through the BHPH dealership itself. Unlike traditional dealerships, BHPH lots often provide their own in-dealer financing. This gives you an opportunity to purchase a reliable car without going through unnecessary hoops due to your credit score. The interest rates may not be as low as you'd get with traditional financing, but it remains highly competitive with most rates offered by conventional lenders. Another benefit is that the financing process at a BHPH dealership is usually faster than securing financing outside of the dealership. Lower Down Payments Many BHPH lots offer promotional deals where only a relatively small down payment is required to drive away in the car of your choice. This definitely comes in handy if you need a reliable car but don't have enough cash saved up to swing a hefty down payment at a traditional dealership. In some cases, you may even be able to drive away without placing a down payment on your vehicle. Whether or not you'll be able to take advantage of this usually depends on your credit score, although most dealers are likely to overlook a poor credit score during a sales promotion. More Reasonable Payment Terms The average BHPH dealership is more willing to work with you when it comes to your payments than a traditional dealership. In many cases, BHPH offer unique payment plans to help customers maintain their finances and not be overwhelmed by payments. Although most payment schedules are arranged on a monthly basis, it's also possible for customers to take advantage of bi-monthly or even weekly payment options. In many cases, customers have a much easier time paying by the week or every two weeks, as opposed to paying on a monthly basis. The Potential to Rebuild Credit History Most BHPH dealerships report timely payments to one or more of the three largest credit reporting agencies in the nation. This can be a good thing if you're looking to rebuild a checkered credit history while driving the reliable vehicle you need. As long as you make timely payments, buying from a BHPH dealership could be one of the first steps you take on the road to credit recovery. For a local BHPH dealership, contact a company such as Autobank of Kansas...read more
Reasons Why You Should Choose A Stick Shift
It's tempting to choose a car that is an automatic, since there is an added learning curve to learning how to drive a stick shift. However, if you take the time to learn how to drive a stick shift, you will save money in various ways and your car will also accelerate faster. Better Gas Mileage Depending on the type of car, a manual transmission can improve gas mileage significantly. Torque converters and hydraulic pumps reduce fuel efficiency. Also, because stick shift accelerates more quickly, your car is more efficient since it reaches a higher gear sooner and higher gears are more efficient. Less Expensive To Purchase Cars that have a manual transmission are less expensive than stick shifts. Also, if you need to replace an old automatic transmission, the manual transmission will be much less expensive. To do so, contact local repair professionals, such as Karry's Automotive Service Center. You Are Forced To Pay Attention Driving manual forces you to pay attention to your car. Then, you are much more likely to notice a problem with the sound of your car and correct it. You are also more likely to pay attention to the road than to other things, such as a smartphone. Your Car Is Less Likely To Be Stolen Given that there are fewer individuals who know how to drive a stick shift, it is less likely that someone will steal your car. Also, if you don't like when others ask to borrow your car, simply inform them that you drive a stick shift and they'll be less likely to want to borrow it. You Can Drive Any Car After Learning Stick Shift There are a greater number of cars that are only made with manual transmissions than there are cars that only have automatic transmissions. Therefore, if you want to drive a unique car, you will either need to learn stick shift or you will need to have the manual replaced with an automatic transmission. Therefore, it is much cheaper simply to choose a manual transmission. Repairs Are Less Expensive It is less expensive and troublesome to maintain a manual transmission than it is to maintain an automatic transmission. Manual transmissions use gear oil, while automatic transmissions use transmission fluid. Gear oil does not have to be replaced as often and is not as expensive. When you are first learning to drive, it makes sense to start with the easier automatic transmission. But once you have become comfortable, you should consider giving a stick shift a...read more
Two Tips For Those Considering Investing In An RV
Investing in a camper can be an excellent way of making it possible to travel the country without needing to stay in expensive or uncomfortable hotels. Yet, there are many people that may not have much experience with these vehicles, which can make the process of buying and caring for a camper more difficult than it has to be. If you are finding yourself in this situation, the following couple of tips will likely be useful to you. Invest In A Camper With Hardwood Flooring The type of flooring in the camper is an important factor that many people will make the mistake of overlooking. However, choosing flooring that is durable with easy care instructions can dramatically reduce the time, energy and money you must spend ensuring the floor is in good condition. Hardwood flooring is an excellent option for individuals that want a durable camper that is still aesthetically pleasing. While this type of flooring may be slightly more expensive than carpeting or laminate, it can outlast these options, which may help you avoid the significant costs of replacing the flooring. In cases where a portion of the flooring has suffered damage, it can be easily replaced to keep the interior looking as good as possible. Take Care Of The Camper's Plumbing The camper's plumbing is another topic that people will often overlook with dire consequences. This is especially important considering that campers have very small pipes, and as a result, they can be far more likely to experience clogs, leaks or any other range of issues. To avoid experiencing these problems, you should make it a point to regularly clean the drains and pipes using vinegar and baking soda. The fizzing caused by combing these two substances can be highly effective at removing grime, hair and mineral deposits from pipes. Furthermore, you should have the entire plumbing system professionally serviced at least once a year. These servicings will allow the technician to inspect all of the seals and connections in the camper's plumbing to ensure no problems are developing. Owning a camper can be an excellent option for those that enjoy spending their time traveling across the country. Yet, failing to properly understand what should be expected from this type of vehicle can make it difficult for you to get the most from this investment. Appreciating these two tips will allow individuals to get the most enjoyment and comfort possible from owning a...read more
Now Is the Time to Prepare for Getting Stuck in a Snowstorm in Your Car
High winds and heavy snows will be blowing across many portions of the United States soon, and you need to be prepared if you get stuck in a storm in your car. A well-packed car can protect you from the cold while you wait for a tow truck to arrive to pull you out of a snowbank or a snow-covered ditch. There are a couple of things to remember: First, it is far better to stay with your vehicle than to venture out into the storm. Second, your car will eventually stop running due to lack of gas or a snow-clogged tail pipe that stalls the engine. Here is how you should pack you car for such a situation. Blankets Blankets are essential to help keep you warm while you stay in your car. You don't have to get a big fluffy blanket that will take up a lot of space in the trunk. Instead, look to purchase one of the newer "space" blankets used by astronauts. Space blankets are thin thermal blankets. You should get a large enough blanket for a couple of people to cuddle under—especially if you normally drive with other people in the car. Cuddling together under the blanket will keep everyone warmer and safer while waiting in the cold. Change of Clothes You should keep a full change of clothes from underwear and socks to jeans and sweaters in your trunk. If you get stuck and get out of the car to try and move it, there's a chance you might fall down into slushy water or a ditch. If you get wet for any reason, you'll want to get out of the wet clothes before hypothermia sets in. Changing your clothes will keep you warm and dry. Water Water is essential to keep you hydrated. Place a few plastic bottles of water into your trunk for when you get stuck. If the water is frozen, place the bottles under your blanket to let your body heat thaw them out. Food You should keep a supply of high-energy nutrition bars and meals in your trunk. Some storms can last for days, and it might be a long time before a tow truck can get to you. You'll need to eat to keep your mental and physical strength up. Getting stuck in the snow is no fun, but it can also be dangerous if you are not prepared for a prolonged stay in your car. With the number of a tow truck service like Mark's Towing, Inc. in your phone and your winter kit in the trunk, you should have much better results if you get caught in a...read more
Thinking Of Skipping That Oil Change? Why You Should Think Twice About It
Getting an oil change does not take very long, and it is something you should take time doing. If you do not, bad things can happen, and this may result in high repair bills. Below is what can happen with your car if you skip this maintenance, and information about changing your oil. Protects the Engine The part in your car that is affected if you skip oil changes is your engine. Over time, your oil will start to break down and cannot lubricate your engine in the way it should. Your engine has moving parts. If they are not properly lubricated, when these parts move it causes friction. When this happens, heat is created and your engine will absorb this heat. When it becomes overheated, the internal parts will not work effectively, and your engine will fail over time. Oil also becomes dirty and gunky if it is not changed, and this dirt will build up inside your engine. Changing Oil It is important that you use the right type of oil for your car. Read the owner's manual that came with your car for this information. A mechanic will also be able to tell you, as well as employees at an auto parts store. All they need is the make and model of your vehicle. Three different types of oils you will see include: Synthetic blend: This type of oil is made in a laboratory, and is generally best used for older engines. This oil contains mineral oils. Fully synthetic: Fully synthetic oil has no minerals, and is generally used for industrial applications. Mineral oil: This type of oil works well in most cars, and is made from refined crude oil. If you do not want to pay someone to change your oil for you, you may be able to change it yourself at home. When changing the oil, you should also change the oil filter. If your owner's manual recommends that you change your oil for extended intervals, make sure the oil filter you purchase can last this long. You can find this information on the box the filter comes in, or ask an employee at the auto parts store. Make sure you write down when you change your oil. The owner's manual for your car will recommend that you change your oil every so many miles, and you should follow this recommendation. Write down the mileage your car was at when you change the oil. To find out more, speak with a business like Gran-Del Petroleum...read more
Myths About Roadside Assistance
There are few things that can ruin a trip faster than having your car break down. In addition to potentially leaving you stranded along a dark and dangerous road, these situations can also require you to pay for expensive towing services. Luckily, there are roadside assistance programs that can help reduce the stress that is caused by these situations. However, many people have a weak understanding of roadside assistance programs, but clearing a couple of routine misconceptions can help you to better appreciate the protections offered by these plans. Myth: Roadside Assistance Only Provides Coverage For Towing When your car experiences a major malfunction, you will need to have it towed to a mechanic to have it repaired, and while this is one of the main benefits offered by roadside assistance plans, it is far from the only way that they can help you when you are experiencing a problem with your car. For example, it is common for these services to help stranded motorist with tasks such as tire changes, adding more fuel, jumping off a dead battery and unlocking the doors when the keys have been lost. By using these services, you can help minimize your out of pocket expenses for handling these issues as well as keeping the disruptions to a minimum. Myth: These Plans Pay For Repairing Your Car Unfortunately, it is important to note that these plans will not cover the actual repairs that your car may require. Rather, these services primarily are only concerned with getting badly malfunctioning automobiles to the nearest repair shop or making minor repairs to vehicles that are stranded. However, there still may be ways that you can minimize the expense of repairing your car. For example, if the vehicle is still under warranty, the dealership may be able to repair the damage for free. As a result, you should be aware of the terms of your warranty to know whether it may be worth it to have the tow truck drop off the vehicle at the nearest authorized dealership for repairs. When your car experiences problems, a roadside assistance plan can prove to be invaluable. Yet, you may have an inaccurate understanding of these programs if you have never used them. If you are aware of the various services that these providers can offer and that they do not cover the actual repairs to our vehicle, you will be more able to decide whether or not these services are right for your needs. Call an assistance company, like Airport Towing, for more...read more
Tips For Safe Fifth Wheel Hitching For New Trailer Owners
If you have just purchased your first fifth wheel, it may be hard to resist that urge to get out there and explore all that the great outdoors has to offer. Before you head out for that first trip, though, there are a few things that you'll need to know for everyone' safety. Here's a look at some tips that will help you ensure that your hitch is secure every time you head out. Hitch Management Any time you're connecting a fifth wheel trailer to your vehicle, it's vital that the hitch be secure. Otherwise, you face the risk of it coming loose while you're on the road, which is hazardous for everyone. Securing the hitch properly requires attention to a few key factors. Follow a Hitching Routine – Create a routine that you can follow every time you hitch and unhitch the trailer. Following a set routine allows you to commit the process to memory. This reduces the chance that you might forget something along the way, which protects your safety and that of your fifth wheel. You may even want to have someone else go through the process for you after you've finished, just to be sure you didn't miss anything. Doing this the first few times will provide you with some great peace of mind that you've covered all of your bases. Secure The Emergency Brake Cable – Don't ever take your fifth wheel out on the road without making sure that the emergency brake cable is secure. That cable helps ensure that your trailer will come to a safe stop in the event that the hitch comes loose. Test the Hitch – Before you raise the front jacks, test the security of the hitch. Give the trailer a small tug with the truck. This pulls the trailer forward and locks the jaws on the hitch into place. This is important, because a hitch that isn't really secure may lead to the trailer falling when you raise the front jacks. The weight of the trailer can actually damage the bed rails of the truck and the trailer itself. Use Wheel Chocks – Every time you park your fifth wheel, use the wheel chocks. Even if the ground appears perfectly level, there may be a slope that you can't see with the naked eye. Putting the wheel chocks in place each time you park eliminates the guess work and the risk. When you buy your first fifth wheel, it's important that you connect it properly and learn how to manage it both on the road and off. With these tips, you'll be able to connect your trailer safely every time, getting where you want to be with the peace of mind that everything is secure. Check with a company like Major Tire & Hitch Inc for more details about proper hitch procedures for your fifth...read more

A&E departments across the country saw a substantial rise in elderly patients and children suffering from heat-related conditions last week, according to the College of Emergency Medicine.
Dr John Heyworth, president of the college, said many departments had treated between 20 and 30 extra patients every day last week.
London Ambulance Service received 19,485 calls during the hottest four days last week – a 20 per cent rise on the week before. The numbers of patients in the capital reporting breathing difficulties, as temperatures hit 31C, were up a third.
Meanwhile, the RSPCA received 366 calls about overheated animals in the first three days of July compared with 900 in the whole of June – a record number itself.
The Independent Police Complaints Commission is investigating after two police dogs died when they were left in a parked vehicle outside Nottinghamshire police headquarters on Tuesday.

Why Look Up?
Kneeling down with hands clasped together, I look up to the skies for wisdom, compassion, and love. I look above myself to find the answers and meanings to every question my soul needs. I look up to see something that I cannot see. But why look up?
Will I find these answers I seek by looking up? Will I realize what purpose there is for the world and for my being? Will looking up answer the questions of evolution and creation? Why look up?
The answers and the wisdom do not come from looking up and attempting to reason beyond what can ever be known. But what can be known and seen and grasped can only come from looking forward. Why look up for a God above the clouds and into the unknown?
That same God and those very questions can never be answered by looking up, but, more simplistically, can be found in every grain of the earth, in every tree, in every being that ever was, is, or will be. Why would God have a human look up beyond what will ever be known to seek his wisdom when He lives within everything right before our eyes. Why look up?
To grasp the very nature of this concept, seemingly and immensely intricate and unimaginable, is in actuality very simple and beautiful. We look up and beseech the Creator to come down from so far above to be with us, to love us, to guide us. But He is already here in everything around us, wrapping us in his warmth and walking every step with us threw everything that is.
So, why look up? Looking up is the only way to appreciate and understand why looking forward is what we were given. Looking up can never be understood, which is why looking forward, we, as humans, should love and respect what we have been given. We have been given everything within reason to understand how God walks with us. Why look up?
Even all that we were given was not enough to understand; thus, God gave us the ultimate form of reason, understanding, and love. God gave us himself not only in everything around humans and within humans, but also God gave us a human. God gave us Himself so that we may better understand His never-ending love for us.
Why look up?

Rated 5 out of 5 by I have no knickname from So pleased with the two coton dresses I ordered I got two mumu style dresses and they are beautiful. I had purchased a couple a few years ago and wore them out but these two look like they better and neater designed for giving a free flow yet they have lines and a nice body. The cotton is beautiful and the colors just my shades. I wear them with a short sleeve sweater and they look really neat. My husband really likes them as well. The price for the dresses was reasonable considering the quality of material and how well they were made

Rated 5 out of 5 by Umemaru from after the fire For some time before buying my dark green dress I looked at it in the catalog. Originally I wanted it for a trip to Italy this summer as I knew it would be Hot; it wasn't available til after I left. On September 12 the third of three major wildfires began near where I live and I and many others were forced to flee our homes. While I was away I decided I should treat myself; I 'm glad I did as I love my well cut dress

Rated 4 out of 5 by pickynona from can be worn anywhere! I ordered my first dress from Vermont about 5 yrs ago. They are the nicest muumuus I own. They wash beautifully, I hang damp and dont ever iron. Nice pockets which I love. I particularly like the length of this one, I also have long ones in this style. More thought and design needs to go into colors and design. I am going to order the new green one. The blue one and the black one are gorgeous! People actually stop me in stores to complement and ask where to purchase. I have never needed to wear a slip. You cant go wrong.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Pansi from Quality Plus! I ordered two mid-length muumuus, one the traditional design, in a dark green, and the other, a purple with a v-neck. The green is perfectly beautiful, my present favorite dress. I will wear it anywhere! The purple is lovely, too, and I feel cool and feminine, even wearing it to work in the yard. The fabric, 100% cotton, is excellent, requiring no ironing, after leaving the washer and hanging to dry on a hanger. The quality of the seams is outstanding, and the deep sidepockets make these dresses sure-fire favorites. My beloved says I float when I'm wearing my new dresses!

From the beginning of the German National Network for Genome Research (Nationales Genomforschungsnetzes NGFN) onwards we have organized data for different networks. The backing of NGFN has been fundamental for the construction of the professional and mature data centre at DKFZ. Within the last 12 years the requirements needed to sustain service structures have increased substantially with regards to expenses and complexity.
The data management system iCHIP (www.ichip.de) has been enhanced as the central database for different consortia. Over the NGFN time span we have managed the data of various NGFN projects such as ENGINE, Neuroblastoma, CancerNet, NeuroNet, Brain Tumor Net, Cardiovascular, Infection/Inflammation, PaCaNet, SMP Bioinformatics, SMP RNAi, SMP Cell and SMP cDNA. In the beginning, we covered two dimensional experiments in the field of transcriptomics. Subsequently, we included e.g., proteomics data and RNAi microscopy images. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has now superseded the microarray approach as the main technology for genome analysis.
The wealth of data gathered in the clinical context serves for the characterization of diseases, for their chronological progression or for the efficiency of therapeutic strategies. The integrative framework iCHIP is additionally organizing patient related clinical data and corresponding biomaterial samples. In this regard, iCHIP operates different cancer entities.
iCHIP is the central clinical node for the ICGC projects PedBrain Tumor, Malignant Lymphoma as well as Early Onset Prostate Cancer.
RNA interference (RNAi) is a biological process inhibiting gene expression and has become an important research tool in the past years. Applying high-throughput technologies to RNAi screens allows for systematic gene knockdown on a whole genome scale. iCHIP is a central database for the storage of the results of this kind of experiments. Publicly available RNAi Screens can be accessed via iCHIP-Bioquant public instance.
The PacaNet-Biobanking is an Amazon-like platform implementing web-based registration, management of clinical specifications, specimen quality assessment, and distribution of biospecimen according to the SOPs. It allows remote searches of the database by collaboration partners and provides them with differentially stained images of collected tissues, and thus information about cellular composition of samples — one of the most decisive aspects in the interpretation of the HTS data.
The research bio-database, PancoBank, utilizes DKFZ iCHIP-technology linking the collection of biopsies and biofluids with clinico-pathological data comprising results of genome-wide screenings in order to elucidate pancreatic pathogenesis and to develop molecular signatures enabling stratification of the patients for novel treatments.
iCHIP will also be the central storage database for DKTK.

Lenstag helps photographers find stolen lenses and images
The website Lenstag bills itself as a tool for helping photographers find lost or stolen gear, but now it's branching out to help people find images used without permission, too.
Lenstag maintains a database of a user's lens, camera body and accessory serial numbers and then trawls the web looking for photos posted with those registration numbers in the EXIF data of a photo. When gear is marked as stolen, Lenstag notifies the owners of the equipment that those photos have shown up online.
Now, as well as gear, the company is rolling out the ability to find images being used without permission. As reported by PetaPixel, the idea for this new feature arose by chance when Lenstag creator Trevor Sehrer's wife accidentally tagged some gear as stolen and received a notification that one of her photos was being used on a random blog.
Sehrer built this accidental discovery into a new service for photographers, and the most recent update to the Lenstag iOS and Android app now provides the ability to scan for pirated images.

It's another way to collect data of trackable and identifiable gear usage. I suppose that information to some organisations or companies have very high value. Even if no data about actual people are reported to anyone, there are very interesting and valuable analytical decisions available.
I know of at least a couple more sites to find stolen cameras...
Maybe DPR should do a comparison/review?
A welcome effort.
I have suggested for years that stolen equipment should be registered with the manufacture so that when it comes in for repair or adjustment, the match can be made. Also, people who purchase used equipment could check the manufactures site to learn if the item was registered as stolen before purchase.
Apparently, my idea is in conflict with capitalism because it makes no dollars for equipment producers, and would lower sales of equipment to people who had their equipment stolen.
Yet again in the US, it's all about $.
I think I don't need Lenstag because
1. My most expensive lens is only $199.99 plus tax.
2. All my photos are beauty in the eyes of the beholder.
I spent about 10 minutes on this site, then decided it was more aggravation than it's worth
I think that on sites as FaceBook, you will find most stolen images. But they remove EXIF & IPTC data on picture uploads. I never understood why?
I think there should be a database of Equipment that has been returned to stores/manufacturers due to faults. If one buys one of these (as a NEW item from store) they can then check to see if it had in fact been returned, or possibly serviced. I read so many issues with lenses that have been exchanged, and recently ret'd one and wonder if these are in fact re sold.
Speaking from experience - It depends. :P
If there is anything wrong with the item or the packaging is damaged, it is usually shipped back to the manufacturer who can decide what to do with it from there. In those cases they usually inspect it and sell it as a refurb.
If it is working properly and can be repackaged to look like new, some stores/employees may try to do so. The main deciding factor is profit margin- if the store makes good money on it, they may keep it and try to resell If it is a loss leader, they love an excuse to get it off their shelves, and will send it back.
It trolls the web? Really? I thought there was enough trolling just in the DPReview forums for starters. Why would we want anyone else to start trolling for us as well? =P
Ah but this is trolling for a good purpose ;)
Surefoot. I think you have to recheck your etymology. There is a word spelt troll that is similar in use to trawl, possibly derived from "patrol", but in an internet context, this is just a homonym for the other kind of troll that I was referring to, the etymology of which is completely different, and which is the same one that Tolkien borrows from Norwegian folklore to use in his stories.
I did recheck my etymology. I cite Wikipedia (which itself cites many sources including Usenet where the term emerged): i stand by my explanation. Note that i was there during these early days and i know what "netiquette" means. If you want the origin of these words i suggest you start looking that word and Usenet posts related to it.
Professional image thiefs usually remove the exif information.
So its harder to find those images that have been stolen.
Therefore this product is only half-baked.
However Google Imagefinder can do great things to find stolen images.
All you need to do is click on the little blue camera to the right of the search bar and upload the picture you want to know more of, and Google finds it for you!
FYI - If the image is yours and its used on a site to which you didn't license your picture to. You then know its stolen....
How difficult is that to understand?
How do they handle photos from cameras/lenses that have been in multiple ownership?
This can be done by the recording date contained in the EXIF data. All images shot before the camera was tagged as stolen can be regarded as belonging to legal owners.
Joking aside, all of it of course only works as long as those images will be published with EXIF data intact..
Of course, one can easily delete or manipulate EXIF data. But I doubt that this would play a big role for stolen equipment. The photos around on the web will most likely not be posted by the thief himself. They rather will be posted by a buyer of used equipment, not aware that it was stolen. So he/she sees no reason to change the EXIF data. For stolen images, however, I think this will be a different story.
"Lenstag maintains a database of a user's lens, camera body and accessory serial numbers and then trolls the web looking for photos..."
Trawls, surely!

Incredibell Bar End Bell Chrome
Price: Currently Unavailable
This product is not currently available. Contact us for more information.
Highlighted Features
- Fits bars and bar ends with an internal diameter of 15.75 mm (5/8")
Many riders like to add a bell to their handlebars as a friendly way to alert others to their presence. The gentle ringing of a bell is a great way to let hikers know when you are coming up behind them. A bell is also great for riding in traffic or on a bike path—really just about anywhere that you might have to call "Behind you!" or, "On your left!" While the traditional thumb bell has always been a favorite, Incredibell's Bar End Bell is also quite popular. The Bar End Bell fits into the end of your handlebars—or bar ends—and is activated with a twist of it's outer collar. It keeps your bars uncluttered, is easy to access, and emits some serious decibels too.

OT: Deshaun Thomas to the NBA
OSU's Deshaun Thomas has declared for the NBA Draft.
Basketball road game cheering help needed thanks
I have a confession to make: In all my years as a Michigan fan and in my time as a student, I have never once attended a mens basketball game. In my defense, I only had enough cash for 2 sports' season tickets, and since I attended school in the Amaker era it was a no brainer to go with Football and Hockey. Tomorrow night, I am attending my first Michigan hoops game, when the team visits Northwestern. Are there any fan cheers that occur at road games?
Basically, I am looking for help from current Maize Ragers with any tips or specifics on current cheers used by our fans for hoops, since I only know the hockey specific cheers (and I doubt I'll be able to use the C-Ya chant all that often at a hoops game). Are there any things we do at home games that also happen on the road? If so, what are those cheers? I'd like to know so I can join in on them if/when they occur. Hopefully I'll be able to make it up to Ann Arbor this year for a home game so I can put your shared knowledge to use there as well. Thanks in advance for the help!
Webber working on an autobiogrpahy
A couple years ago we saw an amazing 30 for 30 about the Fab 5, but one persepctive was missing — Chris Webber's. Soon we'll finally (we hope, at least) get his side of the story when he releases his autobiograhy.
Although I'm sure he'll also write about other things, I think it's fair to say MGoBlog Nation will skip straight to the Michigan years.
I profiled Chris Webber in last week's Sports Illustrated -- he's become one of the more interesting NBA voices as a studio and game analyst for NBA TV and TNT -- and during our conversation he told me that he's been working on a documentary about his life for the past six years. Webber said he plans to release both the documentary and an autobiography at some point next year and the working (but unlikely final) title is The Black Forrest Gump.
DMo doing decent in the summer league
Glad to hear he is holding his own in the summer league...
Second-year player Darius Morris started all five of the Lakers summer league games and averaged the following stats:
Morris led the Lakers in total points, total assists, and finished an impressive third in total rebounds, showcasing his all-around game.
In other news, 8 football recruits have chosen the good guys over OSU in the class of 2013, per my calculations. Yet we still haven't won a head to head recruiting battle against OSU in the Rivals Era, as none of the OSU offers were actually committable.
Trey Burke makes Myron Medcalf's "Avengers" Squad
Over at the college basketball watercooler blog on ESPN.com Myron Medcalf named his Avengers team for the 2012-2013 season. Which consists of Nerlens Noel, Cody Zeller, Doug McDermott, Peyton Siva, and Trey Burke. Basically this is a preseason All American team and I thought it was cool to see a Michigan player getting some publicity. When was the last time a Michigan Basketball player was a preseason All-American.
Tickets On Sale for M/WVU in Brooklyn (per si_daddy)
User si_daddy (who does not have enough points to make an OP) posted this link in the "Trey Burke is Back!" thread, but posted it down far enough that I don't think many people got the chance to take a look. Looks like anyone in the area or willing to make the trip owes him a bit of a posbang if this is news to you. si_daddy, if you're reading this, post and get your +1's.
Since it wasn't me who found this originally, I'll use the "I searched but found nothing" disclaimer. Apologies all around if it's been posted, but I searched and didn't see it.

I am in a dilemma, I've been with a Shanghai girl ( who have grow up here in Shanghai all her life) for almost a year. Now she is pressing me to get a house( a flat, size wise, 100meters or so) , at the very beginning, I half heartedly saying, "ok, we can do that, we can take our time"
11 months later, she is pressing me to buy her a house prior the marriage. I am really getting the hint that she is in the marriage for the real estate, but not me, for the sake of love. I understand…Continue

With the Frankfurt Book Fair literally around the corner, it seemed appropriate to post something about the most recent trip (don't worry, Iceland, Chad's got your back for a recap) we took in the name of bringing great world literature to an international audience. Just over a week ago, Chad and I had the opportunity to hook over to Copenhagen, Denmark, for a brief (yet incredibly informative) editorial and research trip. Our goal: to learn more about the Danish publishing scene, its authors and other key players, and to learn about some modern classics of Danish literature that have not yet made it into the English speaking world.
This is going to be a somewhat disjointed recap, but when you're packed full of all the information possible in three days' time, things are bound to jump around a little. Expect parentheticals galore.
Over the course of three days we met with around 15 book folk—publishers, agents, authors, book sellers, arts council reps—and came away with a crapton of fantastic recommendations and insights. Before leaving for Denmark, the Danish Arts Council (to whom we are ever grateful for providing only our travel grant) set us up with a comprehensive list of people we should speak with or meet while abroad—a list that led us to some truly great contacts, and a better view of contemporary and classic Danish literature. The targets of our meetings ranged from two of the country's largest houses, Rosinante & Co. and its parent company Gyldendal (both who have some of the coolest interior design elements I've seen in my life), to the pleasantly curious and not-unlike-Open-Letter indie press Basilisk (whose director, Martin Larsen, published an eight-volume collection of all the legal combinations of names—possibly around six million in total—as listed on the Danish government's website that a person could register in Denmark—all interspersed at random with single lines of poetry); from agencies like Lindhart og Ringhof and Anneli Høier who represent some of the coolest authors in Denmark, to the authors and translators themselves, like Simon Fruelund (who was just in Rochester for a Reading the World Conversation Series event with his translator, K.E. Semmel, during which they discussed both Simon's Civil Twilight and Milk, a book of short, short stories, which are perfect in their brevity, timing, and weight of what is left unsaid or unexplained), Iben Mondrup (whose prose challenges the setup and reception of linguistics, and whose parents regularly send her fish and whole legs of reindeer from Greenland), and Martin Aitken (who is a prolific and talented translator of Danish into English, a cool guy, and a big My Bloody Valentine fan).
My notebook is filled with Danish authors we were both already aware of and urged to check out, and some of the ones we've become particularly interested in (and in some cases obsessed with) are Claus Beck-Nielsen, Iben Mondrup, Josefine Klougart, Per Højølt, Asta Olivia Nordenhof, Pia Juul, and Naja Marie Aidt. These recommendations and more came from backlsits, frontlists, even people's personal bookshelves (Andreas Poulsen of Arnold Busck runs the store's book magazine—literally called "Bogmagasinet"—brought a stack of his all-time favorite Danish books from home, adding a nice nostalgic and personal touch to our growing list of names).
I'm probably missing a lot of things I know I wanted to write about the Copenhagen trip, but in addition to loading up on book knowledge, we also had the opportunity to wander around the city a bit ("wander" being the operative and relative term—I hadn't been in Copenhagen in at least 10 years, and we had no city map), check out some great places in the old (yet still quasi-ongoing) meatpacking district, and make some new friends. And of course, find some awesome books. That said, once again a huge THANK YOU to Anne-Marie Rasmussen and everyone else at the Danish Arts Council for having us over for a visit, and the rest of you stay tuned to Open Letter's list, as there will definitely be some Danish names cropping up in the near future.
Prose translators will likely disagree, but I believe translating poetry requires a significant level of talent, a commitment to the text, and near mania, all of which suggests that the undertaking is the greatest possible challenge. The task is to. . .
