Preserve Reusable Recycled Plastic Cups Midnight Blue hold 16-ounces and are sold in packs of ten. Features: Sturdy design perfect for kids, entertaining and daily use Reuse dozens of times and recycle when you're finished Made with 100% recycled plastic Dishwasher safe Made in USA About Preserve Preserve makes stylish, high performance, eco-friendly products for your home. As a company, they strive to combine socially and environmentally responsible business practices with groundbreaking design to create products that people feel good about having in their homes. They believe that choosing eco-friendly products doesn't mean having to sacrifice quality, price, or performance. In 1996, founder and president Eric Hudson was committed to the need to use our earth's resources more efficiently and responsibly. The developing plastic recycling market represented a great new opportunity to reuse our earth's resources (plastics are made from oil and natural gas—making up roughly 9% of the world's petroleum usage). However, at the time that Preserve was formed, there was a lot of concern that recyclables were not necessarily turning into new products. Seeing an opportunity, Eric started Preserve to reuse Earth's precious resources and turn them back into products that people wanted. He worked with dentists, scientists and engineers to create Preserve's first high-quality product from recycled plastics—the Preserve Toothbrush. Since then, Preserve has grown into a dynamic, green lifestyle company offering a range of everyday products for almost every room in your home. Using innovative methods, we turn used materials into razors, colanders, cutting boards, tableware and more! As Preserve grows, their core principles remain the same: Preserve products are made from 100% recycled plastics and 100% post-consumer paper. By using recycled materials, we save energy, preserve natural resources and create an incentive for communities to recycle. All of their plastic products are recyclable, either through our postage-paid labels and mailers (toothbrushes and razor handles) or at the curb in communities that recycle #5 plastic. They make their products in the USA, so that thye can ship them shorter distances, using less fuel and limiting their environmental footprint. They don't test on animals. Period. Preserve products are made to last—and to look good doing it. The Preserve team is made up of 11 people and a host of talented interns who bike, walk, train, and drive (some in hybrid cars) to the office outside of Boston intent on bringing Preserve and our mission into more homes everyday. Preserve's Process Reduce. Reuse. Recycle. Those are the principles that have driven their company since 1996 and that motivates them to encourage more households to choose our 100% recycled and recyclable products over conventional products.Their plastic products are made from #5 polypropylene plastic collected from individuals via their Gimme 5 program and from companies like Stonyfield Farm. They take this plastic, sort it, clean it, test it, recycle it, and turn it into new Preserve products. Choosing Preserve Plastic (in the form of a toothbrush or razor, for example) means a sizeable reduction in greenhouse gases emitted, and significantly less water, energy, oil, natural gas, and coal used in making plastic. These numbers were derived from average data for the US, so there are likely differences between Preserve's specific recycling processes and the industry average. There are many assumptions involved when calculating environmental impact, such as machine efficiency, the types of trucks used to transport the plastic to be recycled, and how full those trucks are. Preserve reduced these numbers by 20% for Preserve Plastic to account for these differences. Preserve is confident in these numbers since their recycling process is founded on their steady and reliable recycled polypropylene stream.

Justin Bieber and Kid Cudi hit the studio together
Listen to Justin Bieber on iHeartRadio | Listen to Kid Cudi on iHeartRadio
I don't think anybody actually believed Justin Bieber's bizarre early retirement claims, but for anybody that did, here's some more proof that he isn't.
The Biebs recently hit the studio with Kid Cudi for a recording session. It's not clear if they're recording something for Cudi's next album or Bieber's, but the point is that they're doing something.
If it is for Bieber's next record, then this should be pretty interesting. Former hipster it boy Cudi's best known for his alt-rap productions and more recently, psychedelic hip-hop and rock. It's miles away from Bieber's top forty stuff, but we have seen The Biebs moving further into the urban world since Believe dropped, so this isn't a total surprise.

Congrats on your new baby. Just wanted to provide you some resources that may help with some of your questions:
Coconuts: Tropical Miracle Food (Discusses the health benefits of coconut, including blood pressure lowering capabilities)
Thread on High Risk Pregnancy
Vaginal Birth after Caesarean (VBAC)
In general, the best thing you can do is perform gentle, regular exercise, drink plenty of water, and eat a balanced diet. I am going to alert Kate that this post is here as well so she can provide some insight.
Best of Luck!

DOWNEY - As the pain at the gasoline pump continues, the Southern California Gas Co. offered a little hope Tuesday at a conference showcasing the benefits of natural gas-powered cars.
The first Light-Duty Natural Gas Vehicle Conference in Downey brought together "the thought leaders" of natural gas vehicle technologies, fueling infrastructure and auto manufacturers, said Hal Snyder, vice president of customer solutions for SoCalGas.
"The continuous high price of gasoline is putting the spotlight on vehicles powered by compressed natural gas," Snyder said. "Natural gas is a domestic resource that is clean, cheap and abundant - and helps create jobs here in the U.S."
He noted that the cost of natural gas per gallon is about half that of regular gasoline - and is 30 percent cleaner.
"Natural gas is an American resource, and it helps reduce our dependence on foreign oil," Snyder said.
Despite the fact that there have been natural gas vehicles on the road for decades, a lot of consumers are just learning about it, said Annabel Cook, a consultant with American Honda.
"The infrastructure is now starting to flourish in certain areas of the United States, and I think with new discoveries of natural gas and new exploration occurring in that area, we are going to be learning even more about natural gas," Cook said.
Honda officials demonstrated their all-new Honda Civic Natural Gas, which was named "Green Car of the Year" at the 2012 Los Angeles Auto Show. The car is about 98 percent cleaner than traditional gas-powered cars, Cook said.
According to the Environmental Protection Agency, natural gas reduces smog-producing pollutants by up to 90 percent and costs 30percent to 50 percent less than gasoline or diesel.
The average cost of the CNG at SoCalGas stations is $1.94 for the energy equivalent of a gallon of gasoline or diesel, which now hovers above the $4 range.
The biggest drawback is finding easily accessible natural gas fueling stations, Snyder said.
"The challenge that we have, as with all alternate fuel vehicles, is range and anxiety - how far can I drive the car and know that there is a fueling station available to me?" he said.
Southern California currently has nearly 100 public access compressed natural gas fueling stations serving more than 17,000 natural gas-powered vehicles.
Although the cost of a natural gas vehicle is about $7,000 higher than a gasoline vehicle, in the long run, the savings in gasoline cost will balance it out, said Cook.
"For the most part, with the economic savings you get from the fuel economy and from the fuel itself, you actually achieve a good return on your investment," she said. "And it's no different than a gasoline vehicle in terms of acceleration and all the things you want to have as part of your driving experience."
Another perk to the natural gas vehicles: Access to the car-pool lane, Cook said.
"That's a huge benefit to driving one of these vehicles, beyond the economics, beyond the environment, is this time savings you can get with a vehicle like this," she said.
For more information on the natural gas-powered vehicles, go to www.socalgas.com. To find natural gas fueling stations, download the "socalgas" mobile app.

So in the interest of fairness this Father's Day, Sunday, June 19, I browsed around for some ideas for a dad who likes family history. (I'm dying to include what my little Leo is giving his daddy, but I'm afraid of spoiling his surprise, so I'll show and tell after Sunday.)
Among the beautiful and historic sites you could visit are Civil War-related places such as Abraham Lincoln's boyhood home, the Gettysburg battlefield and Appomattox Court House.
You could convince Dad to take the day off work and celebrate a late, budget-friendly Father's Day (Father's Day is next Sunday, June 19).
Use the Find a Park feature to find parks by name, location, activity or topic. If you scroll down and click a state on the US map, you'll open a page that shows you all the National Parks in that state.
The new agency coordinated the volunteer efforts of women who wanted to contribute to the Union's war effort. Members worked as nurses, ran Army camp kitchens, operated soldiers' homes and lodges, made uniforms, organized fundraising "sanitary fairs" (including art exhibitions or teas) and more.
The group had more than 4,000 local branches, according to Life in Civil War America.
The Sanitary Commission was disbanded in May 1866, and is often considered the forerunner to the American Red Cross.
Looking for records? The Historical Society of Pennsylvania holds a collection of records from the Sanitary Commission Philadelphia Branch, a major hub of commission activity, mostly correspondence, receipts and financial papers.
These are classic genealogy stumbling blocks—but you probably feel like you've run up against a brick wall anytime you've looked and looked and you just can't find an ancestor.
Our newest CD, Research Remedies: Best Strategies to Beat Brick Walls and Track Elusive Ancestors, is just for you.
This CD has Family Tree Magazine's best brick wall-busting help, including:
One of my favorite things about this CD is that you can watch the tips in action: It also contains our hour-long Brick Wall Strategies webinar.
Click here to learn more about the Research Remedies CD at ShopFamilyTree.com.
The contest is open to interested individuals who've discovered new living family connections or long-lost relatives through their family history research.
The winner will get an expenses-paid reunion with a long-lost relative from anywhere in the world, plus a year-long VIP membership to Family Tree Magazine and a three-year Premium-Plus subscription with MyHeritage.com. How's that for a great prize?
Two runners-up will win, as well: A digital subscription to Family Tree Magazine and a three-year Premium-plus subscription on MyHeritage.com.
To enter, submit a few sentences describing your discovery and what it means to you by commenting on the MyHeritage.com Blog, the MyHeritage.com Facebook page or the Family Tree Magazine Facebook page. The entry deadline is June 15.
Click here for the full contest rules and guidelines.
I can't wait to see how researching your genealogy has helped you connect with distant family. Good luck!
Many genealogy sites (and other sites that aren't for doing genealogy per se, but are nonetheless handy for family history) have embraced Web 2.0; this year's 101 Best Websites roundup tilts a bit in their direction. Unlike last year, when we singled out free websites, the 2011 list includes both free and subscription sites.
The 2011 list appears in the September 2011 Family Tree Magazine (which starts mailing to subscribers any day now, and will be available for purchase June 28), and we've also posted them free on FamilyTreeMagazine.com so you can click right through to these great tools for family tree research.
The sites are divided into 11 categories (for "mega-mart" sites, USA-focused sites, tech tools, sites for researching immigrants, etc.). Just click a category name to see the sites in that category.
You'll soon begin to see the selected sites wearing "101 Best Websites" badges. Congratulations to all of them, and a big thank-you for making it easier to discover our family histories.
For more help researching your family tree on the web, see the Online Genealogy store at ShopFamilyTree.com.
Attendees can choose from 130 class sessions covering a range of ethnicities and geographies, technology tools and research at traditional repositories. The focus ranges far beyond Southern California, as most of today's Southern Californians have roots someplace else.
Even if you're not a paid attendee, you can attend a JamboFREE session on Thursday afternoon or Friday morning.
Several sessions also will be presented as free webinars for up to 1,000 registrants.
In the exhibit hall, which also is free to the public, you can browse 70 commercial vendors—look for the friendly face of Family Tree Magazine's own Allison Stacy. A Society Row in the convention center lobby lets you see what genealogical societies and heritage organizations have to offer.
Allison also will be a guest on Lisa Louise Cooke's live Genealogy Gems Podcast, Sunday June 12 at noon. There'll be giveaways, so plan to be in the audience in the "big tent" (seating is first come, first served, and you'll want to arrive early—the event filled to capacity at last year's Jamboree).
Jamboree preregistration is closed, but walk-in registration is available for all three days, or just for one day (there are separate rates for Southern California Genealogical Society members and nonmembers). You'll find links to those rates here (look under Jamboree Registration)
Keep up with conference news on the Jamboree Blog and on Twitter (the conference hashtag is #scgs11).
One of the patients was 18-year-old James E. Hanger, who lost his leg. After returning home, he crafted an artificial leg from barrel staves with a hinge at the knee. He was commissioned to manufacture prosthetic limbs for other wounded soldiers and patented his device. He founded what is now the Hanger Orthopedic Group, still a leading manufacturer of artificial limbs.

Discussion in 'Fan Zone' started by rkell87, Oct 6, 2012.
world wide leader in sports ladies and gentlemen
Wouldn't expect anything less from those clowns.
They missed the shoulderpad numbers
Good eyes
Yeah, ridicilous.
Hard to believe they couldnt get a good shot of him in the last few weeks.
Reebok logo a clear give away as well
LOL! Nike should take an issue with ESPN.
Nice job ESPN. We expect nothing less.
i was about to point that out.
Embarrassing :laugh2:
Manning dont wear that type facemask either
That's just sad...er, funny!
Who cares. It's the norm in advertising and this image...is...advertising.
That's the real question, why wouldn't they just use a real photo? Denver isn't even wearing that uniform this year -- they've gone back to orange as their primary jersey.
Yeah I saw that on reddit I don't think it's real. I don't think ESPN would have thrown something up that looks that bad, especially when it would be far easier to extract a real Manning image than whatever you want to call what was done here.
Really? You spot this now? ESPN used this image as soon as Peyton announced he was signing. The dead giveaway was the helmet and facemask, Peytons worn the Revolution helmet since hes been in the NFL.
Good catch, I missed that.
Btw, I emailed this link to the Dan Patrick Show and just noticed that the show's producer Paulie Pabst linked us on his Twitter!

Any thing any step need to b done that is helpfull (booting from cd backtrack3 with tp-link tl-wn321g which is in support list and the steps are there[backtrack.offensive-security.com/index.php/HCL:Wireless#TP-Link_TL-WN321G]]HCL:Wireless - Offensive-security)
See HERE
In BT4 you don't need to do anything to get the card working with all features enabled
yes i try its working but the problem i find is
when i stop my card
and then use mac changer
and start it again it sound fine
when i use airodump-ng
its goes in next phase and start scaning
but dont show any wep even i try to let it scan for hour
if i use
airodump-ng with out doing the other step mean stop down macchnager and start
its scan rightway
is there any reason
and second question is why we use macchanger
thanks again repling me
MAC Changer just hides your real MAC Address, to ensure extra anonymity for yourself.
It is not required to continue on, and is only an extra precaution.
I have never used mac changer, so I have not run into this problem.
I have a TP-LINK TL-WN321G too and i dont understand why, when i plug the usb on the slot i can find all access points but after 5 minutes nothing seems to be working with wireless assistant / airdump..
SpoonWEP never worked with TL-WN321G.. I use an asus eee pc 1000h. With the installed wifi card spoonWEP works but doesnt have injection and monitoring (but works!). I did install the latest driver(rt73-k2wrlz-3.0.2.tar.bz2) but nothing happens.
Signal strength is not my problem,i sit next to my router and cannot find arps/IVs.
Any advice?

ABOUT 200 protesters gathered in Taunton this morning to lobby against cuts to jobs, arts and other services across Somerset.
They were demonstrating outside Somerset College where Somerset County Council's Cabinet committee has embarked on a meeting that will bring sweeping cuts – reported on this website over the last 10 days - a step closer.
The majority of the protesters were from the county's arts groups with representatives from organisations including TakeArt, the Brewhouse Theatre, Taunton, and Somerset Film, based in Bridgwater.
The county council is planning to pull all its arts funding, a move that many fear will prompt other funding organisations – most notably the Government's Arts Council – to follow suit.
The protesters had made a symbolic cake saying they only wanted a small slice of funding but they were unable to present it to council leader Ken Maddock before the meeting.
At the demonstration, Phil Shepherd, of Somerset Film, said: "I am here because I think the council is about to make a very bad decision.
"I am very concerned about how the risk assessment has taken place. We were negotiating a cut of 26% over three years but now they are cutting 100% in one year.
"A teacher said to me over the weekend, 'the less art a child gets, the more it shows.' Art is not just a leisure option – it is part of the fundamentals of life."
Robert Miles, director of the Brewhouse, said: "We are trying to make the point to the Cabinet that the 0.0004% of the budget that they spend on the arts has huge leverage. It makes a real difference to people's lives and is huge driver for the county.
"We understand cuts need to be made and the arts will do their bit but this 100% cut is just shocking and short sighted."
The said the Brewhouse had been working with the Arts Council to secure a better funding package for the county, arguing that Somerset gets the least per head of any South-West county.
"Talks have been really positive because the Arts Council recognises the lack of investment. For Somerset County Council to send this out a message that Somerset doesn't care about culture is dangerous in terms of attracting other national funding."
Pauline Homeshaw, director of the 10 Parishes festival, centred around Wiveliscombe was also among the demonstrators.
The festival does not receive any funding from the county council but she said: "I'm here for the bigger picture. What the cuts say to the other funders is 'our county doesn't care about the arts' – it's just so wrong."

Transboundary Waters Programme
Globally, there are 263 watersheds that cross the political boundaries of two or more countries; these watersheds represent about one half of the earth's land surface and forty percent of global population. These facts underscore how much water connects us all but also highlight the potential for conflict – and for cooperation.
Waters that cross national borders can carry pollution from upstream to downstream countries, impacting human health and livelihoods. Upstream countries can extract too much water, or use it inefficiently, impacting the needs and livelihoods of downstream users as well as the environmental needs for water of critical aquatic habitat such as wetlands and mangroves. Continued population growth and economic development can further exacerbate these effects. The United Nations estimates that, by 2025, as many as 1.8 billion people will live in countries or regions facing water scarcity, and as much as two-thirds of the world's population could be facing water stress.
Climate change, which is already altering the global water cycle at an unprecedented rate, adds further complexity to these challenges through its impacts on the timing, intensity and variability of rainfall, droughts and flooding.
But history shows that cooperation, not conflict, has been mankind's prevalent response to the challenges presented by transboundary waters.
Over the last 60 years more than 300 international water agreements have been reached while there have only been 37 cases of reported conflict between states over water. Even more important, cooperation on shared waters has been shown to help build mutual respect, understanding and trust among countries and to promote peace, security and regional economic growth.
UNDP's Response
While a lot of progress has been made, even today, of the world's 263 international basins, 158 don't have any kind of cooperative management framework in place so plenty of work lies ahead for the international community. Through its GEF International Waters portfolio, the Shared Waters Partnership, and the Transboundary River Basin Initiative (TRIB; now completed), UNDP is supporting over 100 countries in the preparation of such frameworks in some of the world's most important transboundary waterbodies.

Be Your Creative You
We are here to live, love, and be creative. With these three concepts you will be able to make a positive impact on the lives of others. Creativity is a way to tap into your inner self and express ideas that can inspire you and those that are connected and influenced by those ideas.
Music and DJing is the art of being creative. The year of 1998, when I was seeking and forging my way through life, I started asking myself what is the purpose of my being? I was feeling ordinary by going to work Monday through Friday, 9:00am to 5:00pm with two weeks off.
And although I was working in my chosen profession which was radio broadcasting at the time, I was not able to rise above the grim reality that there must be more to life then just going to work everyday.
Then, a dear friend suggested that I start teaching DJ lessons. I was encourage by the suggestion yet challenged because of the task ahead of me. I said to myself, wow, I can teach someone the gift of spinning music? I could inspire someone to learn with this vinyl and CD library that I have amassed over the years?
The exciting part for me was sharing my experience, music, and passion for DJ culture. The challenge was sharing my experience, music and passion with others. The task ahead meant, I had to sit myself down and create. I would have to create a course of instruction. I would have to think and write something down on paper. Again, I was wowed by the idea of teaching and fearful to move forward.
18 months after the conversation I had with my companion, the creativity hit me and the fear and challenge was put to the side and the pen, paper and I begin to talk. The creative thoughts flowed through me just as a salmon swimming up stream.
I locked myself in my studio for weeks, writing down every ounce of experience that I knew about being a DJ. And if I could not put my own ideas and experience into an intelligible sentence, I started asking questions from those that expressed passion for the DJ profession or have been spinning music as long as I have.
I read physics text books and learned about relative motion and how it relates to turntables and DJ equipment. I would thoroughly read each instruction booklet that was accompanied with DJ equipment. I even took the time to read music theory books and going to live music shows to study musicians and bands.
The knowledge that I knew and learned surprised me; I never assumed I knew much until the creative streak struck me.
Today, I have taught hundreds of children, youths, young adults, and adults the art of DJ culture in my home music studio and community centers and schools throughout northern California. The source of these great opporunties was fueled by my own personal creativity. I never considered myself to be a creative person until I begin the journey of teaching others.
Being creative is a powerful force that cannot be under estimated or toyed with. When in doubt about your life's direction, just take a look around you. Everything that we have as a people, as a society, was forged by creativity…nothing into something.
Challenge yourself. Be the creative being that you are.

CLAREMONT - The city attorney on Thursday strongly denied claims made by a top Golden State Water official that city officials did not consistently participate in proposed settlement negotiations over water rates.
"It is absolutely wrong for Golden State to mischaracterize the city of Claremont's interest in this case," said Sonia R. Carvalho, a partner in the municipal and redevelopment law practice group of Best Best & Krieger LLP.
On Wednesday, Golden State Vice President Denise L. Kruger said Claremont officials did not participate in hearings that resulted in Claremont's 11,000 customers - and ratepayers in Region 3 throughout Southern California - set to pay a 15.1 percent increase in rates in 2013, another 2 percent increase in 2014 and a 1.8 percent increase in 2015.
Officials from Golden State had asked for an initial 24 percent increase with more increases the next two years. The proposed increase has resulted in protests by Claremont city officials and residents. The city is also considering purchasing its part of the company.
"The comment made by Golden State is trying to place responsibility for the rate increase on the city of Claremont. I think that it's very disingenuous of Golden State to try and suggest its rates and significant increases are because Claremont is not interested or doesn't care."
Golden State officials stood by their claims that Claremont officials attended just a single April meeting.
Kruger "correctly stated that the city of Claremont did not participate in the settlement discussions related to the company's general rate case," said Keith Switzer, vice president of regulatory affairs for Golden State.
"She acknowledged that the city joined the first mandatory teleconference, which addressed procedural issues. After that, however, they did not participate in person or by telephone in any of the subsequent settlement discussions."
Switzer participated in settlement negotiations on behalf of Golden State.
Cheryl Cox, Division of Ratepayers Advocates' chief policy advisor, said she could not say if Claremont consistently participated in the meetings because they were confidential. The Division of Ratepayers Advocates were involved in the negotiations as well as the Utility Reform Network, a consumer advocacy group.
"They could have chosen to participate," Cox said. "I leave it up to them to tell you if they participated or not."
The Division of Ratepayers Advocates, an arm of the state Public Utilities Commission, and Golden State Water Co. officials recently filed a settlement agreement with an administrative law judge presiding over the case.
The settlement language was sent out June 7 but Kruger said Claremont officials did not comment.
Carvalho, a partner in the municipal and redevelopment law practice group of Best Best & Krieger LLP, said she was not personally handling the Golden State case, but her colleagues from Best Best & Krieger were.
"I know they were there," Carvalho said. "I know they attended meetings."
Additionally, Carvalho said she went through some emails about the case on Thursday.
"We have been actively involved in the settlement discussion," she said. "I can assure you that. Whether a member of Claremont or a representative sat at a table I can't tell you whether that occurred or whether it was a strategic move not to sit there."

The devices aren't really a boon for Microsoft given Nokia's horrible track record lately, but the patents will give them considerable leverage against Android and Linux in general.

Microsoft Buys Nokia's Device and Services Division + Tech Patents!

Microsoft Buys Nokia's Device and Services Division + Tech Patents!Tags: None
Anyone find it strange that Elop continues in the same job over at Microsoft?
After all, it was Elop that bungled the entire Nokia business into ashes. The man did such a ridiculously horrible job as a CEO that his bumbling will be used as a cautionary example in business schools around the world for decades if not centuries. What's wrong with the picture, why does MS want him back, let alone in the same job - the job he bumbled in the most atrociously horrible way while at Nokia?
The only reason I can think of: from Microsoft's perspective, Elop didn't fail - he did exactly what he was meant to do. He brought down Nokia, removed a potential threat of MS, minced the company into easily-digestible pieces for Microsoft. MS wanted to buy Nokia back before Elop, they couldn't pull it off - the shareholders wouldn't have gone for it when the company was still succesful. Elop was a clever ploy, a trojan horse if you will. Microsoft is like a horrible parasite, it destroys everything it touches and feeds on their corpses.
A sad ending to the tale of Nokia. Now all we can look forward to is seeing MS crash and burn on mobile - it would be poetic justice if Sailfish gained bigger market share than Windows Phone... the revenge of the ghost of Nokia, as it were.
The mole Elop is reported to be getting a 18.8 million ? bonus from the sale of Nokia to Microsoft, if the sale goes through.
This reward (some of which is paid in stock) was specified in Elop's contract as Nokia CEO. Most of the money is now being paid by Microsoft, however.
Yeah, that isn't suspicious at all...

I have got to make one of these! And it looks simple enough, thanks for sharing!
thank you! i have a nice piece of material that i bought quite a while ago to make a scarf, and never got to it. this one looks alot easier than the original one, so i think i'll use it to make this scarf!!!
Hello Ladies, Love this scarf! super quick and easy too! I am thinking Christmas gifts!! Hoping you all have a Happy Thanksgiving!
Way cool! Thanks for sharing at Show & Share!
If you sew the ends together how do you turn it inside out?
You sew the ends together but the scarf just makes a big circle so you turn the raw edges to the inside so they aren't seen.
You sew the frayed edges on the top together and then turn the scarf inside out again, so the top edge you just sewed is on the inside… but then you have one end left that is not sewed and you don't yet have a circle yet, right? Confused on how it becomes a complete circle…
Starting in Step 6 it says to fold the scarf in half so the frayed edges are lined up. In Step 7 you sew those frayed edges together (that makes it a circle). In Step 8, it says to turn it inside out so that part you sewed is on the inside. Hope that helps!
anyone know why this is called an infinity scarf?

text: Vestibular Diagnostic Testing One reason that vestibular problems are so challenging is that there is no definitive test for dizziness. There is no lab test, x-ray or other diagnostic tool that can confirm the presence of dizziness or measure its intensity. When investigating vestibular problems, one must look at the total body of evidence, including the patient's testimony, description of symptoms, history and response to specific exercises and movements performed in a laboratory setting. Located at 243 Charles Street in Boston, the Jenks Vestibular Diagnostic Lab is one of the leading facilities in the world dedicated to measuring balance system function. Founded in 1986 through a gift from James L. Jenks, the laboratory is a center of diagnosis and research, where data are gathered to support both your doctor's investigation and where federally-funded balance research projects are conducted. Investigators in the laboratory at Mass. Eye and Ear have created new tools, refined available tools and developed sophisticated computer models for better accuracy, consistency and success in the management of vestibular disorders. Diagnostic Testing Vestibular testing is a way of measuring the performance of certain parts of the balance system. It is not a measure of your symptoms and you do not need to feel dizzy on the day of testing. The test battery is comprised of four parts: Rotary Chair Testing: Patient sits in a pivoting chair turning gently while eye movements are recorded (using video). This test is conducted to help evaluate sensitivity of the inner ears to turning motion. Visual-vestibular interaction (VVI): Patients sits in the rotary chair turning gently while looking at moving targets. This test is given to see how well the central nervous system can combine multiple motion cues. Videonystagmography (VNG): Video goggles will be placed over eyes to monitor and record voluntary and reflexive eye movements. The VNG helps measure how well the eyes, inner ears and brain help you keep your balance and position. This test can often indicate whether a balance problem is in the inner ear, brain or nerves connecting them. Computerized Posture Platform (EquiTest): Patient stands on a platform that senses weight shifting to see how well they can control their posture under a variety of conditions. This test provides objective assessment of balance control and postural stability under conditions designed to reflect the challenges of daily life. Formal vestibular testing in the Jenks Vestibular Diagnostic Laboratory is performed by experienced testing personnel. All of the vestibular function tests conform with ANS standards, and all of the results are interpreted by medical doctors. Make an appointment with a vestibular specialist today.

little thing i'm playing around at the moment:
it started by editing the keymap to make everything useable without a keyboard, but then i realized it is hard to remember the non global actions wich are special for different places in the skin like "move item up" in playlists or the "love" function in fullscreen mode.
so what are your thoughts and ideas for this?
i know that at the moment it looks a little disturbing to the clean shade look

I guess what we should consider is that not everyone will (A) have a remote that has color buttons and (B) use the same commands for their buttons as you and I do. Now with that being said, it MIGHT be possible to maybe add the ability to show a couple labels of buttons that users can customize themselves.
We will see how much commotion you stir up and go from there.

Girlfriend calling
Already thought about (A) by implementing "<visible>!Skin.HasSetting(HelpBox)</visible>" and (B) by mapping the colour keys to F1..F4 and tried to read out the keymap for the actions but wasn't very successfull with that. Think i will make the Includes_HelpBox.xml (as i call it) as neat as possible to make it easy to change...
but i'm still at the beginning and have to find out what is the most useful in every view...

Looks good, although when I ran it I got an error:
I looked at the code and the problem seems to be at lines 48, 95, and 140 (where the mkdir command is). You do not specify the -p parameter to create the parent directory. After I changed this it seems to work great.Code:Provide path for saving log files, ex. root, *NOT* /root/: test mkdir: cannot create directory `/test/easy-creds-2010-12-11-2120': No such file or directory easy-creds.sh: line 49: cd: /test/easy-creds-2010-12-11-2120: No such file or directory
Thanks for the info....I'll add that...sorry bout that.
I am also currently working on an sslstrip parser with editable definition file, just to have something quick and easy to find your stuff!
Also, going to add a wireless fake ap option. Already coded and ready to implement.

The Foundation's Summer Medical and Dental Education Program was designed to develop and implement a six-week academic enrichment program for undergraduate college students from minority groups, from rural areas, and from economically disadvantaged backgrounds who are interested in pursuing careers in medicine or dentistry.The purpose of the program is to increase the application and acceptance rates of a diverse group of students to medical and dental schools. Students eligible to participate in this program are those who are underrepresented in medicine and dentistry, come from a disadvantaged background (financially or educationally), and/or have demonstrated a commitment to improving the health status of underserved populations. Program activities are structured around a set of predetermined, core operational and programmatic principles: basic sciences (organic chemistry, physics, biology and quantitative topics); key elective courses (writing, oral presentation and current topics in health); learning skills; career development; clinical experience; financial planning; and health policy. There are 12 sites across the United States, nine are joint medical and dental school sites and three are medical school only sites. Each summer, 960 students are selected to participate (80 at each site).

Conservatori Liceu, L'AULA de Música Moderna i Jazz - Barcelona, Spain
L'AULA de Música Moderna i Jazz—Conservatori Liceau, (L'Aula) was founded in 1978 as an alternative music school specializing in the genres of jazz, rock, pop, blues, and other contemporary styles. L'Aula's educational objectives are to stimulate a practical understanding of contemporary music and to forge a cultural approach toward the methodology of modern training.
L'Aula students may work toward either a diploma in modern music or a degree in modern music. The core curriculum of L'Aula combines theoretical performance aspects and compositional skills in all styles.

This subject focuses on ear training through rhythm and melody. Melodic recognition is approached progressively through theory, practice and modern notation with special focus on syncopated rhythms, polyrhythms, and swing. Ear training at L'Aula is based on the system of transposition of a fixed tonal center—movable do.
Theory Levels 1-6
Upon completion of the six levels, students will have a thorough understanding of triads, tonal functions, melodic harmonization, harmonic progressions, cadences, four-note chords, tensions, secondary dominants, and a long list of other harmonic concepts.
Music and Technology 1-2
An introduction to home recording studio technology and professional MIDI-based digital recording. The student is expected to produce professional quality compositions.
Music and Society 1-2
These courses cover the history and evolution of rock and pop, focusing on the social elements of music and the economic, technological and political influences that have affected the development of popular music in the 20th century.

NY Times, Wash. Post obscured Democratic support for minimum wage increase, uncritically repeated anti-wage increase argument
Research ››› ››› SIMON MALOY & JOE BROWN
The New York Times and The Washington Post credited GOP "moderates" with forcing the Republican leadership to allow a vote on increasing the minumum wage, burying the fact that Democrats have been pushing for years to increase the minimum wage. The Times and the Post also uncritically repeated the argument, often put forth by opponents of a wage increase, that a higher minimum wage will result in job losses and discourage job creation.
In reporting on the House Republicans' move to allow a vote on legislation that would increase the federal minimum wage before Congress adjourns for the summer, The New York Times and The Washington Post credited GOP "moderates" with forcing the Republican leadership to allow the vote and buried the fact that Democrats have been pushing for years to increase the minimum wage. Also, the Times and the Post uncritically repeated the argument, often put forth by opponents of a wage increase, that a higher minimum wage will result in job losses and discourage job creation. Research has shown that increasing the minimum wage does not result in job loss or negatively affect employment.
On June 21, the GOP-controlled Senate defeated an amendment, proposed by Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-MA) to a defense bill, calling for a minimum-wage increase -- to $7.25 per hour from the current $5.15 per hour, where it has remained since 1997. No Democrats voted against the amendment (Kennedy's amendment was actually agreed to by the Senate in a 52-46 vote, but due to Senate procedural rules, the amendment was withdrawn when it did not receive the support of three-fifths of the Senate). CNN congressional producer Ted Barrett wrote in a June 28 article on CNN.com: "During the past nine years ... Democrats have tried unsuccessfully to increase the minimum wage."
But in his July 28 article, Post staff writer Jonathan Weisman credited "politically embattled [GOP] moderates" with forcing the Republican leadership's hand, writing:
House Republican leaders, bowing to pressure from their politically embattled moderates, agreed to seek a vote on raising the minimum wage, but House and Senate negotiations on a broad overhaul of the nation's private pension laws broke up last night in intraparty acrimony.
It was not until the ninth paragraph (out of 21) that Weisman acknowledged the strong support among Democrats for the minimum-wage increase: "Democrats and some Republicans have been pushing an increase from $5.15 an hour to $7.25, but most Republicans oppose it, as do small-business groups."
In his July 28 article, headlined "G.O.P. Nears Vote to Increase U.S. Wage," Times reporter Carl Hulse similarly credited the Republican "moderate wing" and quoted Rep. Sherwood Boehlert (R-NY), noting that Boehlert "has been clamoring for a wage vote." Hulse wrote:
Under intense pressure from their moderate wing, House Republican leaders moved on Thursday toward allowing a vote Friday on an increase in the minimum wage before sending anxious lawmakers home for a month of campaigning in the battle for control of Congress.
House Republicans were still assembling a proposal Thursday night. But the momentum had clearly shifted in favor of considering an increase of at least $2 in the $5.15 an hour minimum wage, despite strong resistance from conservative Republicans and the party's allies in the business community.
''I have a high degree of confidence that we are going to have a package presented tomorrow,'' said Representative Sherwood Boehlert, Republican of New York and a centrist who has been clamoring for a wage vote, as he left a meeting on Thursday in the office of Speaker J. Dennis Hastert.
Mr. Boehlert and others have argued that Republican support for an increase in the federal wage is essential to shore up the party's strength among blue-collar and low-income workers who could decide critical House contests in the Northeast and Midwest.
However, it was not until the seventh paragraph (out of 14) that Hulse noted: "Democrats have been trying to highlight the issue for months, accusing Republicans of blocking an increase while allowing Congressional pay to rise steadily. And they warned that Republicans might try to tie the increase to an unacceptable piece of legislation on taxes or health care as a 'poison pill' to drive off Democrats and make certain the increase could not clear the Senate or become law."
Additionally, both Weisman and Hulse uncritically repeated the argument, advanced by Republicans and "small business groups," that raising the minimum wage will cost jobs. Weisman reported that "small business groups ... say such a hike [in the minimum wage] would throw many low-wage employees out of work."
Similarly, Hulse wrote:
Many House Republicans have for years opposed bringing a wage measure to the floor, saying it was not the government's role to set pay rates and that requiring a higher minimum wage would discourage employers from creating new jobs. They have been backed by lobbying groups like the National Restaurant Association and the National Federation of Independent Business.
In fact, a 1998 Economic Policy Institute (EPI) study of the impact of the two most recent increases in the federal minimum wage found that the effect on employment was "economically small and statistically insignificant ... [and] almost as likely to be positive as negative." The study, which analyzed the effects of the October 1, 1996, minimum wage increase -- from $4.25 to $4.75 per hour -- and the September 1, 1997, minimum wage increase to $5.15 per hour, used "[f]our different tests of the two increases' employment impact -- applied to a large number of demographic groups whose wages are sensitive to the minimum wage" and "fail[ed] to find any systematic, significant job loss associated with the 1996-97 increases."
Additionally, as the weblog Think Progress noted in a July 24 entry, a 1995 study by Princeton University economists David Card and Alan B. Krueger found that increases in state and federal minimum wages led "to increases in pay, but no loss in jobs." Think Progress also noted that a report from the Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development found that the state's 2005 wage increase "produced $175 million in additional payroll and a $3 million boost in state tax revenue."

Historic Places of Oahu
Oahu was the home of the Hawaiian monarchy, the birthplace of modern and big wave surfing, and the tipping point in the United States involvement in World War II. Explore the historic places of Oahu and see why there's more to Hawaii than just sun, sand and surf.
Nuuanu Pali Lookout
Overlooking the lush Windward Coast and the majestic Koolau Mountain range, the Nuuanu Pali Lookout was the site of the Battle of Nuuanu. It was here, high atop these sheer cliffs that King Kamehameha I won a decisive battle that helped him conquer the island of Oahu.
Downtown Honolulu
Within a short walking distance of each other, Downtown Honolulu and Chinatown is home to historic Hawaiian landmarks like the Iolani Palace, the King Kamehameha I Statue, Kawaiahao Church as well as modern landmarks like the Hawaii State Capitol, Washington Place (home of the Governor) and Honolulu Hale (home to the City Council and Mayor's office). The Hawaiian Mission Houses Museum, just east of the Kawaiahao Church, actually displays three missionary homes built in New England and shipped to Oahu.
A short walk west beyond the buildings of the financial district and you'll find the arts district of Chinatown. Go on the Chinatown art walk, visit the areas hip bars and restaurants or catch a performance at the Hawaii Theatre. Opened in 1922, the "Pride of the Pacific" has been meticulously restored and in 2005 it was named "Outstanding Historic Theatre in America."
Pearl Harbor and Beyond
On December 7, 1941 the Japanese navy attacked Pearl Harbor beginning U.S. involvement in World War II. On September 2, 1945, Japan signed its unconditional surrender on the decks of the USS Battleship Missouri ending the war. The five Pearl Harbor Historic Sites honor these events with amazing memorials and living museums.
Today, you can also still walk in the footsteps of Hawaii's rich military past at locations throughout Oahu. In Waikiki, the U.S. Army Museum of Hawaii chronicles the history of warfare in Hawaii from King Kamehameha to today. Two of Waikiki's most historic hotels, the Moana Surfrider, A Westin Resort known as the "First Lady of Waikiki" and the Royal Hawaiian Hotel known as the "Pink Palace of the Pacific," were popular rest and recreation stops for soldiers during WWII, a time when barbed wire was actually strung along Waikiki Beach. Even iconic Leahi (Diamond Head) was used for the coastal defense of Oahu. A total of five military batteries were built atop Diamond Head State Monument between 1910 and 1943. You can hike atop Leahi (Diamond Head) today and still see the remains of these bunkers. Finally, you can pay your respects to America's fallen at the National Memorial Cemetary of the Pacific, overlooking incredible views of Honolulu.

I have installed BackTrack v2.0 Final on my notebook. After booting and logging in with root/toor I type startx, but instead of the X-System the Flux-System is loaded. What can I do to start the X-System again?
xconf kde
text to make the message long enough to post
That command didn't work but I found out that I can start the right desktop (X-Window KDE) by typing init 4. Typing startx still results in starting Fluxbox. Why?? How can I fix the startx command?
Another question: since I installed Grub (because I also have a WinXP partition) BackTrack doesn't use its nice bootscreen anymore. This is not a serious problem, but I would like to know how I can get this bootscreen back (looks nicer than just white text on a black background ^^)
