London: Sep 3, 2014
A Yorkshire side coached by former Australia fast bowler Jason Gillespie were closing in on the English County Championship title after an innings and 18-run win away to arch-rivals Lancashire. Wednesday's victory at Old Trafford left First Division leaders Yorkshire 26 points clear of second-placed Nottinghamshire ahead of next week's match between the top two at Trent Bridge.
But Yorkshire's first Roses victory in 16 years came at the cost of captain Andrew Gale earning a suspension that will rule him out for the rest of the season after a dust-up with Lancashire's Ashwell Prince. Gale, unhappy at what he saw as batsman Prince's delaying tactics on Tuesday, used some choice words to let the South African know what he thought of his approach.
His apology to Lancashire captain Glen Chapple before play on Wednesday came too late to spare Gale from a ban. "He's our leader, the leader of Yorkshire County Cricket Club," Gillespie told the Cricinfo website.
"For him to be missing the last two games is devastating for the man himself. We really feel for him and are disappointed.
"His season is over and he is quite understandably devastated after such a great win here," added the 39-year-old Gillespie, who took 259 wickets in 71 Tests for Australia from 1996-2006.
The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) announced Gale's ban in a statement, which confirmed he had been reported by umpires Steve Garrett and Steve O'Shaughnessy for "using language or gesture that is obscene or of a serious insulting nature to another player, umpire, referee, team official or spectator".
The addition of a six-point penalty on his disciplinary record took Gale to 12 points, the stage at which a suspension is triggered, and he has been banned up to and including Friday, September 26.
On the field, Australia's Usman Khawaja did his best to spare Lancashire from defeat with a painstaking 117 in the home side's second innings.
But the match was a personal triumph for Yorkshire's Adam Lyth.
Tipped by some pundits as a possible replacement for Australia-born England opener Sam Robson, Lyth made 251 — just shy of the Roses record of 252 set by Darren Lehmann, now the coach of Australia, when Yorkshire last won the title in 2001.
This fixture was also memorable for leg-spinning all-rounder Adil Rashid, who is bidding to revive his England career.
Rashid made 159 not out in Yorkshire's total of 610 for six declared — a Roses record — and took five for 117 in Lancashire's second innings 314 all out.
"It was a lovely win," said Gillespie. "It's a great position to be in, no question.
"But we've got Nottinghamshire away and they're a very good team.
"We're under no illusions, it's going to be a tough challenge for us down at Trent Bridge."
Gale's enforced absence could pave the way for either one of England batsmen Joe Root and Gary Ballance, currently on one-day international duty against India, to return to action against Nottinghamshire.

What's the latest on Lilith Fair, the female-oriented festival that last toured in 1999? Organizers recently announced the touring festival's return, and today they're talking about how local bands and artists can be part of the action.
Lilith 2010 has partnered with OurStage.com to run the "Lilith Local Talent Search," dedicated to finding "the next best emerging female musicians across North America."
The online contest schematics should be familiar by now. A winner will be chosen in each city the tour visits where they will perform a set on the Village Stage with other emerging artists. Lilith organizers point out that same stage once hosted the likes of Christina Aguilera, Nelly Furtado and Tegan and Sara, so you just never know which future stars you might bump elbows with.
"We are really excited to be partnering with OurStage.com," Lilith co-founder Terry McBride said. "It was extremely important to us to choose a partner that was artist friendly, had a strong platform for discovering regional talent, and had the ability to enable the fans to sort through the best music in a scalable and fair manner. Together, we provide an exceptional platform for discovering and promoting the best emerging female artists."
So far Lilith is planning on playing 17 cities in the U.S. and Canada – Atlanta, Boston, Calgary, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Los Angeles, Minneapolis, Montreal, New York, Philadelphia, Portland (Oregon), Seattle, San Francisco, Toronto, Vancouver and Washington, D.C.
Lilith promises to announce more details about the festival as well as the talent contest. To stay connected, click here for the Lilith Fair Web site, here for the tour's Twitter page and here for OurStage.com.

I think Lilith was the greatest concept ever for a touring festival! It reminded (and reminds) women singer/songwriter/musicians that we are powerful in numbers!

I am hard pressed to find another course in Melbourne that offers such in depth one to one developmental arcs for aspiring film and television makers. This is the course to beat!
An amazing institution which provides actual industry experience and a recognised qualification in this technical and creative field.
After I abandoned my degree and enrolled at Footscray City Films I Instantly felt that I'd found found my place
I have never been happier, I learnt more in one class here than in my entire year 12 media class. The workshops have been amazing!
I have finally found myself enjoying school! I haven't enjoyed school in years and this course is offering me everything that I love doing.
The course is so enjoyable as it is hands on, fast paced and gets you straight into it. I'm so excited to finally work with advanced equipment and make quality films.
The place is just great. This course opens you up so much more in terms of both knowledge and expertise, and the people are fantastic to work with.
The past few weeks have been amazing! The classes are so informative and fun, and although its only been a couple of weeks I feel that I have already learnt more here than I had during my entire high school experience.
I've had a great time finally having the opportunity to be surrounded by like-minded people, who can share the same love for film. I found the lecture from Ross Dimsey invaluable, really enjoying the opportunity to have his insight into the real working industry at the top of the chain.
Since its beginnings in 1981, Footscray City Films has held a significant place in Australian social and educational history and is widely recognised for its initiatives, its standards of excellence, and as an instigator in many areas of Film and Television education.
For over thirty years Footscray City Films has helped hundreds of students achieve their artistic goals of becoming filmmakers and gaining work in the Australian Film Industry.
The great strength of the Film School lies in its ability to nurture and encourage strong relationships with students, the film and television industry and the community.
An essential focus of the Footscray ethos is the discovery of one's self and what we share with others. Film-making is such a collaborative process that it encourages individuals to be supportive. It awakens a sense of community in all of us.
All three courses at Footscray City Films use the CUA Creative Arts & Culture Training Package
Our Nationally Recognised Training Programs and courses are based upon competency based training principles
Students are provided with hands on tuition in Short Film Production on up to 20 films per year using industry standard equipment and post production facilities, taking students from concept right through to the marketing of their films.
These full-time, year long courses are designed to introduce students to professional film video and multimedia production techniques where students learn by making their own individual films and crewing on fellow student productions throughout the year.
To complete the Advanced Diploma of Screen and Media it takes three years. This includes one year of Advanced Diploma of Screen and Media, one year of Diploma of Screen and Media and one year in Certificate IV in Screen and Media.

He's really more of an octopus. See, squids have feeding tentacles with larger ends, and BidSquid doesn't. Not to mention mantles, fins, beaks, and all the other cool stuff squids have that octopi don't. Also, I'm pretty sure only octopi would make an auction house that steals so much flezz from people |

I was saving this picture for a future post but so many have commented on Grandma Jennie's hair I decided to go ahead and put it here.
When they took Jennie's hair down after this picture they found the beautiful waves in the photo I posted yesterday. I never thought to ask how she wore her hair from day to day.
I asked so many questions and yet I missed so many others. I hope if you can still ask the questions you are making every effort to do so...and writing them down.

The Horse Forum
- Horse Tack and Equipment
- - Horse Trailer
Horse Trailer Hello, I know that I should really post this somewhere else, but I was not to sure where and I really think you guys will give me great advice. Anyhow, I have been looking at trailers and was wondering what you all prefer, straight load/slant load? I can see benefits with both, but wasn't sure which one is better. I would love to hear about your experiences and advice. Thanks everyone! |
I've heard that the slants are better because it is easier for the horse to adjusts to acceleration, deceleration and turns. I believe i read or heard that somewhere. Can't remember where though. |
I also moved your topic to the horse tack and equipment section :D |
I agree with Appy on the slant trailers. If you have to stop suddenly the horse is less likely to loose its footing since it is at an angle and with rather teeter than slide off balance. They are safer IMO and more comfortable for the horse. |
13 Attachment(s) I prefer slants. :) I agree with all the above posts! :D They are easier for the horse. |
I have little stock. Let my horse to move around. |
We have a straight load. I've never had a slant so can't comment on them. I just like to see lots of padding no matter what type. I'm surprised how many trailer mfg. don't put padding on the walls and dividers in the horse areas. I also think whichever type, it needs to be overlarge/tall for your horse so they have room to move around. I also prefer a bumper pull (I like a topper on my truck) and its hard to find a 2 horse slant load they seem to be all 3-4 horse. My last trailer was a step up, the new one is a ramp. I'm torn on that point I see the advantages and disadvantages of both. Here's our trailer, it has a little sleeping area in the front. Just bunk beds, toilet, sink and shower. One of these days we'll get one of those big fancy ones :wink: http://www.horseforum.com/userpix/2101_DSC01037_1.jpg |
There's a tack store right across the street from where i work and they sell trailers there too. If I'm not mistaken, they are selling a 2 horse slant trailer. But i agree with you Vida, most of the slant trailers, if not all are for multiple horses. |
I have a steel old style SunDowner straight load. Its amazing, no matter how much your horse freaks it will not hurt the trailer. |
The one I posted the pic of is a Sundowner. I love their trailers, they really build them with the horses safety in mind. When you look at trailers, take a really good look for anyplace that could be a danger to your horse. Check the welds and protruding bolts/nuts anything with sharp corners. I've seen some with fabulous living quarters that really skimp on the horse area. Buy used if you can find one you like, and always pull the mats to check the floor. |

Home Access Health Corporation Statement Following CDC Revised Recommendations for Routine HIV Testing
Sep 27, 2006, 01:00 ET from Home Access Health Corporation
HOFFMAN ESTATES, Ill., Sept. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- Home Access Health Corporation (HAHC), the manufacturer of the only U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved at-home HIV-1 test, is poised to facilitate routine HIV testing following the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) recommendation for routine voluntary HIV testing for people ages 13 to 64. Now that the CDC has recommended routine HIV testing for most adults and adolescents, people will want options that suit their own needs for privacy, anonymity and accuracy. HAHC's HIV-1 test is uniquely positioned to offer such a choice. Home Access utilizes a proprietary platform that integrates mail-in micro- blood samples with greater than 99.9% diagnostic testing accuracy. No other diagnostic procedure for HIV, other than a venous blood draw, provides this level of accuracy. The Home Access test is much more than an HIV screen. The testing protocol requires any test exhibiting potential "HIV positive" attributes undergo immediate confirmatory testing. As a result, the Home Access system eliminates the risk of a "false positive," a test result that can appear to be positive, but upon further confirmatory testing, will be negative. The Home Access HIV-1 test is available through physician offices as well as directly to consumers in the privacy of their own homes -- with next business-day, confirmed results through accurate, professional laboratory services. While the test is completely anonymous to ensure privacy, consumers can immediately choose to share their test results with their physicians, without having to wait for additional confirmatory results, as can be the practice with rapid HIV tests. And, for physicians, the Home Access HIV-1 test offers a hassle-free option. Medical professionals need no special training to use the Home Access HIV-1 test, and Home Access provides results interpretation and counseling services. The test has a long shelf life, up to three years, with no special storage requirements. About Home Access Home Access Health Corporation is a pioneer and market leader in personal convenience diagnostics. Home Access is the only company approved by the FDA to provide at-home testing for HIV-1 and Hepatitis C. Home Access offers physician-directed at-home tests for management of CardioDiabetes, including lipids (cholesterol panel), liver enzyme (ALT), and hemoglobin (HbA1c). The company's proprietary platform integrates mail-in micro-blood samples with highly accurate diagnostic testing and interactive communication methods that have made Home Access a trusted brand in personal health care. For more information call 1-800-HIV-TEST or visit http://www.homeaccess.com . Home Access Health Corporation HIV Test - Fact Sheet -- Home Access Health Corporation is a pioneer and market leader in personal convenience diagnostics. -- Home Access was founded in 1993 to develop direct-to-patient, technology-based solutions to address one of the most pressing issues in healthcare today: the inability of people to obtain fast, convenient, accurate, and confidential information about their health, particularly the presence of infectious diseases such as HIV. -- Home Access is the only company approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to provide at-home testing for HIV-1, with next business day results. -- While other manufacturers have been in the news for lower-than- expected accuracy rates, Home Access Health's HIV-1 Test has a proven and reliable greater than 99.9 percent accuracy. -- Home Access HIV-1 tests utilize a retractable safety lancet for blood collection. Customers prick a fingertip and place drops of blood on the blood collection card included in the test kit. -- Test results and counseling are completely anonymous. The simple at- home collection method combined with accurate laboratory testing ensures a reliable test result quickly and conveniently. Using the Home Access HIV-1 test is a great first step in formulating a personal prevention plan. -- The Home Access HIV-1 test has a shelf life of up to three years and requires no special storage conditions. -- Because the company's proprietary platform integrates mail-in micro- blood samples with highly accurate diagnostic testing and interactive communication methods, Home Access has become a trusted brand in personal health care. -- Home Access test kits are available to consumers via more than 20,000 major retail pharmacies and drug stores, government agencies, the Internet, and through phone, fax and mail order.

Back in 2008, pondering yet another Utah scandelette over the sex, I wrote:
There's a tendency to believe that if the speaker in question . . . means what she says in all seriousness that we are required to treat it seriously. But some claims are simply unserious. Treating them as if they are meaningful or serious does not make them so. It also makes it difficult to sort out what to do in response to the truly serious – i.e. teens in Davis county texting each other nude pictures of themselves.[snip]
Not all concerns about morality are of equal value or weight. That an adult would be so offended by a window display in a shopping mall that she feels she must write a letter to the editor is laughable. Like the people who were mortally offended at Janet Jackson's boob during the Super Bowl (and who demanded that such family entertainment not be besmirched by boobs) the complaint does not deserve to be treated with any seriousness.
I was reminded of that post when I heard the story on KSL of the parents in Kaysville who were upset because a local shop window displayed lingerie – near a movie theatre. Some daft person from a group calling itself Women for Decency was mentioned in the article:
But Holt said she is concerned that the largest window display in Kaysville features lingerie, and she hopes Allen makes the display "more family-oriented."
Exactly what is a "family oriented" window display selling bras? Maybe they could show breastfeeding – that's pretty family oriented. Right? Of course that might involve showing a boob and boobs wreak wanton havoc on families all the time. Simply owning boobs makes women automatically dangerous. Yeah, snark.
The owner of the shop in question had this to say:
Allen said she recently made some changes to the display and will consider other changes, but will not cover the windows. Her shop features bras and lingerie for women of all sizes.
"Once you cover the windows, you enter the realm of the adult shop, and I'm not an adult shop," Allen told the Standard-Examiner.
She sells women's underwear. There's nothing pornographic or indecent about what she sells and I have a difficult time believing her window display was anywhere near indecent, let alone pornographic (nary a plastic nipple in sight!). This incident reveals more about the censors than it does about the content being censored. The censors would have us believe that a window display of lingerie is indecent. By extension, it's difficult to believe they would find the dress of people at the park on a sunny saturday decent. And therein lies problem – decency (and indecency!) is in the eye of the beholder and the default position being advocated by these decent women is simultaneously hopelessly repressive and absurdly vague. What is a sufficiently "family oriented" means of displaying women's underwear that wouldn't offend them? At what point do we say the public square should not cater to the lowest common denominator – either in terms of indecency or decency? We're not all five years old and there's no reason the public square should be purged of everything a five year wouldn't understand.
A quick visit to the website of Women for Decency uncovers sensitivities that make a Hawthorne character seem like a wanton libertine.
I went into the Mexican Grill, Costa Vida, the other day with my husband and another couple…glad to be patronizing this Utah company who recently got a Best of State Award for one of their menu items. Good for them, but even better for them, and for us is their responsible advertising. I did not see their billboard along the Wasatch front on I-15 before it was changed but after hearing from a friend that the model on a surfboard was once in a revealing bathing suit this model is now covered up with-what I believe is called a rash guard. You can faintly make out an added section over the woman's torso that now sports a red t-shirt (or rash guard) and she looks like an athletic, pretty girl who is out for some surfing rather than a posed model out to sell me something with a sexy image. Thank you Costa Vida. I'm going to tell my friend to try out that award winning entree.
You read that right – a picture of a woman in a two piece bathing suit on a surfboard is too sexy. I belive the woman who wrote this means it with all seriousness – it does not mean we need to treat her concerns seriously. Their website contains a host of complaints about Victoria's Secret ads, including a set of tips on how to quit receiving the aforementioned ads. A quick search for other mentions of the group online included a complaint about Bath and Body Works sending out an ad with a nude women; I doubt I saw the ad, but the message is clear – nudity is inherently indecent and should offend. The question these decent women never seem to ask themselves is what makes something offensive or indecent versus inoffensive and decent? What is it about decency that is valuable?
I'm reminded of the book I reviewed earlier by Janice Graham (another cultural conservative, a Mormon mom at war with a depraved world) in which she emphasized notions of modesty and decency, in which she called for chastity and modesty as panacea for life's complicated emotional and relationship problems. Yet in Graham's book she never once asked or attempted the answer of "What makes something or someone modest and how is it valuabel?" Women for Decency's website spends a lot of pixels on porn. Their clear framework is the concept of porn as dangerous and addictive. They offer books no doubt filled with bathetic tales of heroic women confronting and defeating porn. (I wonder at the symmetry of supposedly radical feminists and obviously conservative women identifying porn as one of the world's great enemies. It suggests, at some level, we're dealing with a gendered issue when discussing porn.)
From the culturally conservative perspective, sexuality is profoundly dangerous and must be contained at every point. When conservatives, such as the Women for Decency group, see a window display of lingerie and bras, they perceive a dangerous crack on the edifice of decency. The display itself isn't the problem, but rather what it implies to them – the loss of safety. Decency = safety.
Max Blumenthal described such women in his book Republican Gomorrah:
The women who oversee the Christian right's personal crisis industry are very often products of the same trauma-wracked culture that they mine for recruits. When they advocate for abstinence-only education or against abortion, they stir their audiences with lurid confessions about their own horrific experiences in secular society—their demeaning sexual encounters, their abortions, their shame. (2509)
He even connects their culture of personal crisis to demands for abstinence only education:
Abstinence education propaganda is valuable perhaps only as a document of the philosophy of right-wing women like Unruh. To Unruh, sex for the purpose of pleasure is a satanic act that ultimately harms women. By coercing girls to deny their essential urges, she and her cohorts believe they can protect them from demonic male aggressors on sexual hit-and-run missions. It is no wonder right-wing women insist they are the "true" feminists.(2537)
Almost all the resources provided by Women for Decency focus on pornography. Among their resources are a booklet cloyingly entitled "Learning to Smile Again" described as:
A series of stories of hope and healing published by Women for Decency, is now available for women, ecclesiastical leaders, therapist and counselors. This short booklet contains women's true stories of how they are coping after discovering their husband's addiction to pornography.
Blumenthal describes the conservative manhood movement and its response to porn, equally apocalyptic in perspective:
Steve Arterburn and Fred Stoeker, have become leading Christian-right self-help gurus. Their expertise stems not from any academic training but from their ability to describe their own redemption from sexual addiction in accessible, evangelical language.(3661)
The wife in every man's desktop picture frame is dowdy, dull, and frozen. She is the Christian man's only permissible outlet for his sexual frustration—and therefore no outlet at all. If she does sleep with her husband, it is only to prevent his descent into total depravity, not to fulfill her own sexual needs.(3683)
Rooted in this retrograde view of human sexuality, cultural conservatives can look at a window display for bras with horror. Why, though, such horror?
Mormonism – like other conservative churches – places a huge emphasis on family. Listening to the rhetoric its difficult to escape the notion that family should be the sole source of emotional connection, well being, succor. It becomes the primary place in which the individual experiences him or herself. Work, church, community, politics are all useful only in so far as they support the family but usually they are a threat, a distraction from the family. Individual identity is inseparable from one's role in the family. A breach in the family is a devastating blow, disorienting.
Among evangelical Christians, the divorce rate is higher than the rest of the population. In 2009, Utah ranked #1 in online porn subscriptions. Among people who regard the family as the sole acceptable expression for sexuality and the primary avenue of personal fulfillment, such facts are horrifying, signs that their entire world is in danger. The supposedly warm, all encompassing family is suddenly revealed as part of the problem. Without it, the believer is exposed to a world of enormous, unmanageable danger. The family must be protected at all costs because without it, the individual will be lost. When conservatives proclaim the family is the primary social unit, that is what they mean.
The rigid response to a simple shop window display illustrates the moral quandary in which these individuals find themselves. Constantly on guard against a dangerous world, they can never wind down – even at home the must constantly be alert for signs of depravity creeping into the home. Their husband in the basement working on the computer may secretly be buying porn and engaging in a virtual affair that will destroy their family, their children riding the bus to school will see indecent billboards. Constant, wearying vigilance leaves them in a state of perpetual crisis. Threatened from every direction, tragedy never more than a mouse click away, the women engage in a heroic battle to save family, self and soul.
Suddenly, a simple window display is a mortal and moral threat to the family and must be immediately defeated.

text: GENERAL MILLS ISSUES STATEMENT ON CLIMATE CHANGE, AGRICULTURE'S ROLE Aug. 1, 2014 "Taste of General Mills" reports: Weather is often something people think about as they're walking out the door in the morning or as they make weekend plans. But, for a food company like General Mills, it's a much longer-term consideration. Weather conditions such as drought, floods and excessive heat, can decrease yields on crops like corn, oats and wheat. Changing weather patterns can also impact our ability to deliver quality products to our consumers and value to our shareholders. As weather volatility increases, General Mills recognizes the need to mitigate the climate change risks presented to humanity, our environment and our livelihoods. The urgency is clear: science-based evidence points to changes in climate that could permanently alter the atmosphere if action isn't taken in the near term. An innovative, holistic approach is essential. For years, General Mills has been working to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in our operations and in agriculture. We've had specific GHG targets in place for our direct operations since 2005. However, given that nearly two-thirds of General Mills' GHG emissions and 99 percent of water use throughout our value chain occur upstream of our direct operations, primarily in agriculture, we've also been focused on advancing sustainable agriculture. To this end, we've made a commitment to sustainably source 100 percent of our 10 priority ingredients by 2020. These ingredients represent 50 percent of our total raw material purchases. Today, we further our commitment to environmental stewardship and sustainable agriculture by announcing a corporate climate policy that establishes a framework for our efforts to track and reduce GHG emissions across our broader value chain. This includes requiring key ingredient suppliers to demonstrate environmental, social and economic improvements in their supply chains. Climate In addition, our policy addresses further reductions in resource usage within our own operations; our leadership role in a multi-stakeholder water stewardship strategy; and our continued contributions to food waste reduction. Read the full General Mills climate policy here. Climate change is not an issue one company can tackle alone. It takes the collaboration and dedication of many. General Mills has sought partners with a shared commitment to mitigating climate change. We recently joined BICEP, Ceres' Business for Innovative Climate and Energy Policy, in an effort to advocate more closely with policy makers to pass meaningful energy and climate legislation. Mindy Lubber, president, Ceres, welcomed us to the group saying: "General Mills is showing increasing leadership on climate change and we are proud to welcome the company as our newest member of BICEP. With General Mills' global commitment to sustainable sourcing and the work it is doing to reduce GHG emissions in its direct operations and in agriculture, the company brings a lot to the table. We are certain General Mills will be an effective advocate for strong climate and energy policies." We also have great, long-standing partners including the Innovation Center for U.S. Dairy and Field to Market: The Alliance for Sustainable Agriculture. And, our collaborative work includes other important multi-stakeholder groups such as the Roundtable for Sustainable Palm Oil and Bonsucro. The imperative is clear: business, together with governments, NGOs and individuals, need to act together to reduce the human impact on climate change. Government policies that provide proportionate and clear guidance on mitigation and adaptation are essential for large scale progress. Business investment in innovations that help reduce natural resource use and create energy alternatives is essential to reach scalable practices and technologies. And, helping individual consumers make more sustainable choices is essential to reducing the collective human impact on the environment. We all have a part to play. We encourage you - individuals and organizations alike - to join us in the commitment to reduce our collective environmental footprint and improve the overall health of the planet. As consumers, we can make a difference by reducing food waste, recycling packaging, using less water and energy and by choosing more energy efficient appliances. Together, our combined actions can have a big impact. Follow our progress as we report annually in our Global Responsibility Report and via the Carbon Disclosure Project and the Water Disclosure Project. John Church is the executive vice president of supply chain operations at General Mills, based in Minneapolis. He is responsible for worldwide sourcing, product logistics, manufacturing and global engineering. He joined General Mills in 1988. Tweet |

Delcam announces new hires
Software provider Delcam is introducing two new staff members at the EASTEC exhibition May 19 to 21 in Springfield, Mass. David Gray has joined the company as sales engineer for the Southeast U.S., in particular Tennessee, Alabama, and Mississippi, and Chris Cole has been appointed as an additional applications engineer, working on the company's feature-based FeatureCAM CAM system and the soon-to-be-released Delcam for SolidWorks product.
Coincidentally, David Gray was brought up close to Delcam's Birmingham, U.K., headquarters. After completing his apprenticeship in mechanical engineering and holding a number of sales positions in the U.K., he moved to the U.S. in 1997. At this stage, David was focussed on the hardware side of the business. He subsequently moved across to CADCAM software sales, where he now has more than 10 years' experience.
Chris Cole has worked in manufacturing for almost 20 years since graduating from Virginia Tech. He spent 11 years in the machining industry before moving into the CAM business. Chris spent the next eight years using his CAM skills in demonstrations, training, and support.

Detailed Description:
The broad goal of this proposal is to determine the effect of aging on areas of the brain whose function is impacted by gonadal steroids in women. The overarching hypothesis is that aging differentially alters the effects of estrogen on the brain. Our preliminary data indicate that aging alters the effect of estrogen on brain regions involved in cognition and thus, the current proposal will focus on the impact of aging on functional changes induced by estrogen in cortical and subcortical areas associated with verbal working memory and declarative/episodic memory. As our model, we will use women in whom the absence of gonadal function makes it possible to control the duration and amount of estrogen exposure, specifically postmenopausal women who are younger (45-55) or older (65-80). We will investigate the effects of both short-term (48 hr) and prolonged (28-30 days) estrogen exposure to determine whether the changes in brain regions involved in cognition that were seen with short-term estrogen exposure persist with prolonged exposure, a finding that would have enormous clinical relevance. These studies, using sophisticated neuroimaging tools (structural and functional magnetic resonance imaging [MRI] and [18F] 2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose positron emission tomography [FDG-PET]), provide a unique window into the brain in the human.

Where was I again? That's it – I was doing a series on lesser known punk bands from the early 80s. I'm now going to get the series up & running again (I hope). It's been derailed by a variety of things, starting off with my trip to Blackpool, so it seems appropriate to start again with imho Blackpool's best punk band. The Fits were formed in 1979, many years before Blackpool became the official holiday destination for the UK punk scene. They were influenced by the early punk version of Adam & The Ants, but didn't have the ability. But this was punk after all, and limited ability didn't stop them having a go. Despite some dodgy early recordings they persisted and went onto release a handful of classic records.
The Fits first release was an EP called "You Said We'd Never Make It" and maybe they shouldn't have. Plodding, amateurish, clichéd, it reaches a nadir with the mod-bashing Odd Bod Mod , ("I still get people shouting "Odd bod mod" at me when I go back to Blackpool, and I still blush" – Mickey Crudge, interviewed in Ian Glasper's book Burning Britain) The EP still has it's fans, although apparently not the band themselves.
Next up was the Think For Yourself 7", featuring the still rough but much more energetic Burial.
The band were now signed up to punk/metal label Rondolet and an album was required. The result was the "You're Nothing, You're Nowhere" LP – fine if you like amateurish, badly played punk and naive teenage snarling, although again the band were not entirely happy. I quite like it, as the review in Sounds stated its "convincingly hostile", but its best in small doses.
Things soon improved quality wise. After some line-up changes the band released one more record for Rondelet, the defiant Last Laugh EP. It was produced by Knox of The Vibrators which no doubt helped give it a more powerful sound – and it's better than any record The Vibrators released after the 1978.
The Fits were never especially pc – they once auditioned bassists by the novel method of seeing how long they could sit through a porn video. This makes it all the more surprising that they next hooked up with none other than the gurus of punk right-on-ness Crass to release the Tears Of A Nation 7". A visit to Crass's farmhouse commune ("they all went outside to watch a hedgehog pass by" – Micky Crudge – The Fits Punk Collection sleevenotes) resulted in an agreement to release the Fits' next 7". Tears Of A Nation came out in 1983 and is widely regarded as their classic. A slow but powerful track, that suggests they'd been listening to Killing Joke, with painfully honest lyrics about the problems of being a punk band in 1983. If I was to quibble about this record it would be that it's not about the "tears of a nation" at all but "frustrations of a Blackpool punk band" doesn't sound as dramatic so I'll overlook that.
After their brief involvement with the earnest, commune-dwelling politicos what would be the next move in The Fits' eccentric career? Becoming mates with a certain Peter & The Test Tube Babies of course. They were the only other band to sign to Test Tubes' shortlived Trapper Records, and even occasionally borrowed each others' band members for gigs. The Fits released a split 12" with Test Tubes and a couple of singles for Trapper. By this point they were moving in a poppier direction, listening to their stuff from this period you might apply labels such as new wave, indie, or alternative as easily as punk. There are still some fine tracks though, particularly Achilles Heel, which in a typical error of judgement was wasted on the the b-side of their Action single. Another good track that I recently discovered on youtube is Everything, which I presume is from the second album that they started recording but didn't finish.
The Fits petered out in the mid-80s. Like many similar bands it seems that they no longer fitted in with an increasingly aggressive and thrash-obsessed punk scene, but there was no breakthrough to a wider audience either. Whatever the reason The Fits have only just reappeared with a fine performance at this year's Rebellion, despite dropping some of their best known songs in favour of songs they hadn't actually released the first time round! Still shooting themselves in the foot!

Love is different. It's a little bit FPS, it's a little bit MMO, it's a little bit RTS, it's a little bit adventure game. The basic deal is as follows: it's an online cooperative game, based around the notion of building and defending player-run settlements and rewards exploration, teamwork and creative problem-solving. So here's the kicker: the game world is procedurally-generated. It's highly ambitious, and also incredibly beautiful, doubly so when you find out it's all the work of one guy: Eskil Steenberg.

Monteverdi-Chor Hamburg (Choir)
Founded: 1955 - Hamburg, Germany
The Monteverdi-Chor Hamburg (Monteverdi-Chor) is one of Germany's most famous choirs. Founded by Jürgen Jürgens in 1955 as the choir of the Italian Cultural Institute Hamburg, it has been a member of the Academy for the Cultivation of Music, as a part of. the music department of the University of Hamburg since Jürgen Jürgens' nomination as University Music Director in 1961. During the long period of Jürgen Jürgens as the director of the Monteverdi-Chor (1955-1994), its repertoire was composed of the a-cappella literature from the Middle Ages to the avant-garde. Emphasis was given to the works of Claudio Monteverdi and the music of the early Italian Baroque, although oratorios from J.S. Bach to Dalla-Piccola also formed part of the programme. During that period, the Monteverdi-Chor received numerous prizes in international competitions. Excellent recordings, mainly of the works of Monteverdi, have brought international fame to the choir. It toured almost all the countries of Western Europe, Poland, Hungary, Bulgaria, Yugoslavia, the Middle East including Israel, USA and Latin America. In August 1994, the well known Leipzig conductor and singer Gothart Stier became the new artistic director of the Monteverdi-Chor, with which he had already appeared as guest conductor on a concert tour to the St. Petersburg Easter Music Festival in May 1994 and in a significant performance of George Frideric Handel's Messiah in the St. Michaelis Church in Hamburg. Besides the main works of the early music canon, the wide repertoire of the Monteverdi-Chor includes music of the romantic period and contemporary music. Concert tours have taken the choir to nearly all western and eastern European countries, the Near and Far East, Australia, the USA and Latin America. Numerous prizes from international competitions document the choir's successful work. The choir has worked together with such well known conductors as Arnold Östman, Frans Brüggen, Gerd Albrecht, Sergiu Comissiona, Yuri Ahronovitch and Ingo Metzmacher. The work of Gothart Stier continues the tradition of the Monteverdi-Chor as an a cappella choir, though he has extended the repertoire of the choir in his own style through a series of performances of major oratorios. For these, some of which have been recorded on CD, the choir works with such well known orchestras as the Philharmonic Orchestra Halle, Mitteldeutsches Kammerorchester and Neues Bachisches Collegium Musicum Leipzig. Award-winning landmark recordings, mainly of early music, established the choir's reputation world wide. The choir was awarded the Brahms Medal of the City of Hamburg for its work as a music ambassador for the city. Highlights of Gothart Stier's work with the choir so far have been a most successful concert tour to the Israel Festival in Jerusalem in May 1996, with Felix Mendelssohn's Hymn of Praise and an a cappella programme; a performance of F. Mendelssohn's Elijah in the famous St. Thomas Church in Leipzig; Monteverdi's Vespro della Beata Vergine in the Quedlinburg Music Summer 1997; the first performance of F. Mendelssohn's St. Paul in Israel during the Liturgica Festival in Jerusalem and the Musica Sacra Festival in Nazareth in 1998; a performance of Luigi Dallapiccola's Canti di prigionia during the Händel-Festival Halle 1999; a concert-tour to Guatemala and San Salvador in September 1999; a performance of L.v. Beethoven's Missa solemnis in the St. Thomas Church in Leipzig in October 1999; an a cappella concert tour in Germany in September 2000 and a concert tour in Germany with Verdi's Quattro pezzi sacri and Rossini's Stabat Mater in January 2001; a concert-tour to the Tuba Mirum Festival of the Hermitage St.Petersburg with F. Mendelssohn's Elijah and an a cappella programme and Pendereckis Seven gates of Jerusalem in June 2001; participation in the Händel-Festival Göttingen 2002; two performances of the Missa solemnis by L.v. Beethoven in the Festival "Musiksommer Mecklenburg-Vorpommern" in 2002; a concert tour to China in October 2003; a concert tour through Germany with G.F. Handel's Messiah in December 2003 and with Dvorak's Requiem in January 2004; an a cappella-Tour in Spring 2004; a concert tour to Baltic states in September 2004 and performances of F. Mendelssohn's Elijah in the 79th German Bach-Festival Hamburg and the Mendelssohn-Festival Leipzig together with members of the Gewandhausorchester Leipzig in October 2004.

Earth Week 2011
Monday, April 18th kicked off a week of events, speakers, movies, art installations, and live music to celebrate Earth Week 2011. Among the main events were sunbox installations, the Farmers Market, and an Earth Week discussion with Senator Bernie Sanders.
Sunbox installations by Craig Colorusso were displayed outside of the Davis Center from April 20th-22nd and were a favorite among students and families attended the Admitted Students Day. Each box is comprised of a different guitar sample powered by solar panels.The boxes play independently of each other creating a unique musical experience.

Despite the move inside the Davis Center due to weather on April 20th, the Farmers Market was also a great event with a series of local vendors selling samosa, baked goods and smoothies with live music pumped through solar powered amps. UVM student run clubs Feel Good and Common Ground were among the vendors as well as local Burlington vendors such as The Bakers Corner. Among the main speakers of the week, Senator Bernie Sanders spoke of Global Warming being the issue of our generation and spoke highly in support of education for the environment and research like that is being done here at UVM. Sanders spoke of growing up in rural Vermont and how nature inspires him in his daily and political life in Washington and influences his support of renewable energy, alternative transportation and local foods in Vermont. The talk was put on by the Congress to Campus Program.
Bike Users Group Rolls On

The Bike Users Group (BUG) introduced the first stage of the Bike Sharing Program this semester and is scheduled to continue the program into the summer and fall after a successful start. In it's first two weeks the program saw about 100 bike trips from 17 bikes parked in three hubs at McAuley Hall, the Davis Center and Simpson.
Now that the program is up and running, with support from a variety of departments and faculty on campus, the group is working to increase its presence on campus with events such as the Doctor Your Bike Day (featured above).
The group is hoping to raise its inventory to 30 bikes by the fall and add two more hubs at Waterman and the Patrick Gym in the coming semesters. For the summer, all bikes will be parked at the Davis Center and available 24 hours at a time.
To join the Bike Sharing Program, simply log on to the Bike Users Groups lynx page with your UVM ID and password and fill out the BUG Waiver provided on the bottom left of the page under Forms.

The forum began with announcements from the office and affiliates.The second round of Clean Energy Fund projects are all listed on the Office of Sustainability Website and the committee is looking for new members (see above).
First, Tim McGrath, Outreach Professional, presented on the Transportation Research Center (TRC) and its contribution to sustainability at UVM . The main objectives of the center are to act as a hub of innovation and interdisciplinary research, education and outreach on sustainable transportation system solutions. With 40 associated faculty and students from seven different colleges at UVM, the TRC works as an interdisciplinary "Matrix Center" to integrate different fields of study into one center. The TRC is also the host of the National University Transportation Center (UTC) and the Vermont Clean Cities Coalition, funded by the U.S. Department of Transportation and the U.S. Department of Energy and the Vermont Department of Public Service. The center has also helped to create five new courses at UVM and works with undergraduates and graduate students to conduct research.
Next, graduate fellows Steve Posner and Anna Mika, presented on the ENVS 187: Campus Sustainability class. Starting this year, the class now has a permanent course listing in the ENVS department as a service learning class that will be taught every spring. Posner and Mika taught the class alongside Ralph Stuart and Aaron Witham, a graduate TRC fellow. This semester 21 students were enrolled the class from different fields of study to look at campus sustainability from various aspects aspects using the AASHE STARS criteria and looking at the UVM Climate Action Plan. Posner and Mika presented student work from a "Mental Map" assignment to show different interpretations of mapping and students interpretations of sustainability.

RENTON, Wash. - Seattle Sounders FC will further enhance security measures using handheld metal detectors at all home matches beginning on July 3 vs. D.C. United, the team announced today. Fans are encouraged to arrive early at stadium gates to help facilitate this additional security measure.
"Our first priority is to ensure a safe environment for Sounders FC fans at CenturyLink Field," said Sounders FC President Peter McLoughlin. "This is the same program that was implemented at Seahawks games last season. The process is smooth and moves quickly."
The team will take the following measures and continue to encourage fans to arrive early to keep lines moving quickly when entering the stadium:
- Fans will be asked to remove all metal from their pockets and hold the items in their hands as the screening is conducted. This includes coins, keys and cell phones.
- If fans have any concerns about the use of a metal detector due to medical reasons, the enhanced pat-down screening procedure can be substituted.
- Fans are encouraged to give themselves enough time to pass through security.
CenturyLink Field gates open 90 minutes before kickoff and the 30-minute period leading up to kickoff is the busiest time frame at the security screening points.
Sounders FC to Employ Handheld Metal Detectors at All Home Matches
Club adds measure to ensure safety of all supporters who attend home matches.

The kernel is the central module of an operating system (OS). It is the part of the operating system that loads first, and it remains in main memory. Because it stays in memory, it is important for the kernel to be as small as possible while still providing all the essential services required by other parts of the operating system and applications. The the kernel code is usually loaded into a protected area of memory to prevent it from being overwritten by programs or other parts of the operating system.
Typically, the kernel is responsible for memory management, process and task management, and disk management. The kernel connects the system hardware to the application software. Every operating system has a kernel. For example the Linux kernel is used numerous operating systems including Linux, FreeBSD, Android and others.

Who here loves Halloween as their favorite celebrated holiday? Well for me I love Halloween. Even though I'm old I still manage to dress up and go trick or treating with family and friends. I mean think about it, how do people know how old you are if you are dressed up in disguises right. It's perfect, I can be anybody I want to be and nobody will know anything. The only thing that can give away my age is my size. Yeah sure you will get those people that say to you "aren't you a little too old for Halloween?" My response to them is "no way Halloween is the one day (besides Christmas) that is for everybody of all ages" So since my beloved day is only like 3 months away, I figure another character for Halloween is in order. So in light of that whole conversation, I will be showing you how to draw Oogie Boogie from the Tim Burton movie "Nightmare Before Christmas" Now I liked that movie very much. Jack Skellington was an instant likable character for me even though he creeped me out a bit. Sally was a sweet and innocent rag doll that longed for Jack's attention and companionship but he was just to preoccupied to see that. There is a part in the movie where the three kids take Santa to a dark and gloomy place. Not only is the place creepy, a certain individual lives there as well. His name is Oogie Boogie and he is the big bad villain of the movie. He is a monster that is made of bugs with a body that is stitched together from a burlap sack. Now out of all the monsters in Halloween Town Oogie Boogie is the only one that is truly evil. The other monsters are just there to scare people because that is what they are supposed to do. If you are from Halloween town you are usually a typical creature or monster that is associated with Halloween. Oogie Boogie decides to keep Santa and cook him up in his favorite dish, the snake and spider stew. But when Jack realizes that his place is to make Halloween better and not take over Christmas, he has to rescue Santa from Oogie's dirty paws and send him back to the South Pole. He eventually destroys Oogie Boogie by pulling a piece of thread that opens up his bug filled sack body. In this tutorial I will show you how to draw Oogie Boogie the evil monster from Nightmare Before Christmas step by step. I hope you have fun and remember start preparing for an awesome Halloween cause Jack is coming back.

Cellulite cream lotion – Picking the Right Cellulite Cream Lotion
Many men and women who are afflicted with the embarrassing condition of cellulite may be looking for a cellulite cream lotion that will help in reducing the way their skin looks. There are a number of different types of cellulite cream lotion that one can purchase, but it can be difficult to know which one to purchase. Each cellulite cream lotion may advertise to be the best and make some grand promises, but in the end, they may not live up to their advertisements. For this reason, it is good to do some research before one actually decides to purchase a product.
Each type of cellulite cream lotion is made up of different combinations of ingredients. Some ingredients are natural, whereas others are synthetic chemicals. There can be advantages to both, but many people today are leaning towards using products that are made from natural ingredients. This can include the type of cellulite cream lotion they purchase. There are various reasons for this, but one of the top reasons is the fact that natural products can be absorbed by the body at a much faster rate than manufactured ingredients can be. Second, natural products can be safer and result in fewer allergic reactions to the cellulite cream lotion one selects.
There are many advantages to using a cellulite cream lotion to help in diminishing the way cellulite can affect one's body. Cellulite is not necessarily a painful condition, but it can cause one to be embarrassed and self-conscious about certain parts of their body. This is due to the fact that cellulite can cause dimpling or a cottage-cheese effect to the skin and this can be unsightly in many people's view. An advantage to a cellulite cream lotion is that it can cause one's skin to start to look smoother and with less dimpling in a shorter period of time. This can be a tremendous benefit for many people with this condition. Another advantage that many like is the ease at which they can obtain cellulite cream. Not only is it less expensive than many other types of treatments, but many cellulite cream lotion products are easy to obtain at one's local drug store, department store or through an online resource.
For many people dealing with the effects of cellulite can be an unpleasant experience. They may feel self-conscious about how their skin looks but are unsure what cellulite cream lotion they should buy. By taking some time and analyzing the choices available, they may be able to narrow their choices and then eventually find the right cellulite cream lotion that will work for them.

Men Need Feminism
Feminism with men in mind.
"The women of Bikini Kill let guitarist Billy Karren be in their feminist punk band, but only if he's willing to just "do some shit." Being a feminist dude is like that. We may ask you to "do some shit" for the band, but you don't get to be Kathleen Hannah."--@heatherurehere

Aside from a body that is now almost exclusively a shade of matte black and the shiny black speaker grille gracing its derriere, the TomTom One 140 is identical to the fourth-generation One. That One soldiers on as the entry-level model at a RRP of AU$299, a price that will be cut further by retailers.
Despite treading water, we're still fans of the One 140's design. It looks good, but more importantly its compact size allied with the EasyPort windscreen mount that affixes itself to the unit around the large rear speaker, folds up in a compact bundle, allowing it to all fit in even the shallowest of gloveboxes. Like many users have discovered, once the One is stuck on to the windscreen, care needs to be exercised when adjusting it for visibility. Pull at the device and it will merrily detach itself from the mount; to avoid this you need to grab both the One and the mounting bracket before attempting any viewing angle adjustments.
Part of the One 140's compact dimensions derives from the fact that it sports a small 3.5-inch screen. Although down on the inch count, it's decent enough for map viewing, but entering locations via the on-screen QWERTY keyboard can be an exercise in frustration at times. Give it a try in store before you buy and if it's an issue for you, spend a bit more on the 4.3-inch version of the One, the XL 340.
With the body little changed, TomTom's engineers have beavered away at its innards. Underneath the One 140's emo outfit, you'll find a faster processor and double the amount of memory. These improvements lead to slightly snappier map refreshes, nearly instantaneous response to inputs and faster route calculation — a bonus for when you wander off course. While the menus have been jazzed up with a new set of icons and a more modern look, the maps remain the same as ever, which is to say functional but no more.
