the_suites had een nieuw logo ontwerp nodig en lanceerde daarom een wedstrijd op 99designs.
Een winnaar werd gekozen uit48 ontwerpen ingezonden door17 freelance designers.
Outshine Online
Outshine Online helps outstanding small and medium sized businesses succeed online. We prefer to work with passionate business owners who want to grow their businesses. We do that using search engine optimization, pay-per-click advertising, conversion optimization, etc.
Many similar companies have very boring, very generic, very techie feeling logos. We don't want that - we want something that is a reflection of who we are and what we stand for.
We have small and medium sized clients around the world, including partnerships with design and marketing agencies. Therefore, it's important for us to get a logo that is well designed and conveys the right message.
The logo needs to convey professionalism, but not stuffiness. We are not "suits." Words I would use to describe the company would be: young, confident, passionate, energetic, insightful.
The website (not up yet) will be visually interesting and striking. We are aiming to build a strong brand, and the logo is the cornerstone of that.
Our tagline is "Outrank. Outsell. Outshine." If it can be worked into the logo and look good, that would be great. If not, it is not a requirement.
Ideally, the logo should play with the idea of "outshine" - either with some literal like a lamp, lantern, beacon, etc. or something more abstract.
I am open to suggestion on colours and fonts. I do tend to like fresh colour palettes a lot, more so than darker/more conservative ones.
No clip art, cartoony looking images, or overly busy logos.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. I will be monitoring the contest frequently.

PureView Phase 2, or how Nokia managed to surprise us with an 8MP camera module
0. phoneArena 05 Sep 2012, 12:19 posted on
The 8.7MP PureView one has been built from the ground up with the thought to resolve the issue that plagues smartphone cameras the most, due to their smallish sensors - low-light performance. Nokia didn't achieve that by placing a huge sensor behind the Carl-Zeiss lens, like on the 808 PureView, that will capture more light, but rather went the other way around...

Term: astral world
Astral World: Just as we can speak of the physical plane and the physical world, so can we speak of the astral plane and the astral world. A "plane" (like a "level") is descriptive of the characteristics of the things that make up a world—the substance, energies, laws, etc. A "world," in contrast, is descriptive of how the things are put together, hence the landscape, the life-forms, the climates, and so forth. The astral world has its own landscape, generally replicating the physical world, but is far more extensive, reaching wherever consciousness reaches. It has its own inhabitants, which include the astral bodies of the inhabitants of the physical world. Those astral inhabitants also include forms that have never incarnated into physical bodies as well as temporary inhabitants created by humans through the power of imagination, emotion and fantasy. It is also possible that some creatures, like certain paranormal entities such as UFOs, Aliens, the Loch Ness and other "monsters" that slip in and out of the physical world have their origin in the astral, and that mythical beings like dragons also exist in the lower astral close enough to the physical that they sometimes appear to the physical world inhabitants.

text: Watch Whoopi Goldberg Rant About The View Hosting RumorsKate Dries7/10/14 11:40amFiled to: the viewwhoopi goldbergrosie odonnellelisabeth hasselbecktv376EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink At the very start of The View Thursday morning, Whoopi Goldberg effusively expressed her thoughts on all the gossip that's been spreading about who will replace Sherri Shepherd and Jenny McCarthy as hosts of the show, implying that she's sick of stories about the women involved catfighting. Advertisement "We don't know who's coming in," said Whoopi, however, "We will do our best to bring you the view that Barbara Walters wanted you to have, which is women talking about issues. We are not little kids. We are grown-ass women." "I don't argue with people – we have spirited discussions," Whoopi went on to say. "I don't fight with people – it's not my way. Quit trying to make me into something I'm not. I'm not a little girl with cat claws. I'm not a cat. I'm a girl with a fist, okay?"Advertisement "Quit trying to make something happen and let whatever's going to happen happen." Hopefully Elisabeth Hasselbeck tuned in to Whoopi's segment, because she and Rosie O'Donnell are currently battling it out, this time via the internet. Rosie took to Twitter on Wednesday evening to criticize Hasselbeck's criticism of her, specifically calling out Hasselbeck for being two-faced. O'Donnell also responded to Wendy Williams this morning; Williams had sent her praise, writing "I'm #team @Rosie." O'Donnell thanked Williams for "the shout-out," responding that she "was not fired" from the show, clarifying that "left and would not return." Update: The View says Rosie's now definitely onboard. Okay, everyone just be quiet now, Whoopi said so.Reply37 repliesLeave a reply

Hi! My name is Stephanie Zonis, and welcome to the July-August, 1999 edition of "I Love Chocolate." Summer is the time for cool treats, refrigerated as well as frozen, so take advantage of it! Try a new brand of ice cream (or, better yet, make some of your own), freeze juice in your ice cream maker, or snack on some icy-cold melon. Let's get cooking!
Looking for something different for an ending to a barbecue or an informal party? How about an old-fashioned ice cream social? Provide at least several different flavors of ice cream (you might want to include low-fat ice cream or sorbet for those counting calories). Put out different toppings--sauces or syrups as well as chocolate sprinkles, chopped nuts, chopped candy bars, cut-up fresh fruit, etc. Make sure you provide plenty of bowls, spoons, and napkins, and don't forget whipped cream to top the sundaes. Neatness doesn't count here; only creativity and fun are important. Dig in!
Milwaukee, Wisconsin is the home of Moose Lodge, Ltd. (don't you love that name?), who makes salsa, catsup, honey mustard, and ice cream toppings. I haven't tried Cowboy Joe's Catsup or Saddle Burn Salsa, but I can tell you that their Rock Creek Raspberry Sauce is terrific: all-natural, with a good, true raspberry flavor. The Fly Fisherman's Fudge has a deep cocoa taste, is delicious right out of the jar or over ice cream (it doesn't become chewy over ice cream, a plus if you have dental work), and comes with a real fishing fly on top of every jar. I liked the Camper's Caramel, too, which does turn delightfully chewy over cold ice cream. I'm told the company's best-seller is their Sizzlin' Strawberry jalapeño Sauce.
Moose Lodge, Ltd. was founded in 1993 by Nancy Masterson, an appreciator of both good food and the great outdoors. At present, there are four sweet sauces, four hot products, and two no-added-sugar, no-added-fat toppings (Hiker's Heavenly Fudge and Climber's Carefree Caramel). Moose Lodge, Ltd. products are currently sold in gourmet stores all over the U.S., but if you can't find any where you live, call (800) 558-0990 (toll-free) to order. A few jars of these goodies would make a wonderful gift for those friends who've invited you to their shore house or the pet-sitter who looks after your menagerie when you're away...
I Love Chocolate wants YOU!!! Do you have a comment, question, or suggestion? How about a recent chocolate "find" you'd like to share? You can contact me at: sdziadwm@[email-address-removed]; I'd like your input on this column. Thanks!
'Til next edition,
Yours in chocolate,

VIDEO: USA tops Puerto Rico in exhibition
HANG TIME NEW JERSEY — LeBron James was always taking the summer off from competitive basketball. Kevin Love decided to do the same just before the U.S. National Team opened training camp in Las Vegas last month. But there are still reasons for Cavs fans to watch the FIBA World Cup, which begins Saturday in Spain.
The Cavs are one of two teams that will have four players taking part in the World Cup. Kyrie Irving, of course, will start (at least some games) at point guard for the United States. He'll face new teammate Erik Murphy, playing for Finland, in the USA's first pool-play game.
Murphy, who was acquired in a trade from Utah last month, may not necessarily be on the Cavs' opening-night roster. Only $100,000 of his $816,000 contract is guaranteed, the Cavs are already over the 15-man roster limit, and they've yet to sign Shawn Marion.
Irving has already faced Brazil's Anderson Varejao in an exhibition game. And he could go head-to-head with his Cleveland back-up — Australia's Matthew Dellavedova — in the knockout round.
The Rockets are the other NBA team that will have four players at the World Cup. James Harden, the Dominican Republic's Francisco Garcia, Lithuania's Donatas Motiejunas and Greece's Kostas Papanikolaou will all represent the Rockets in Spain.
Papanikolaou is one of five incoming rookies at the tournament. The others are the Bulls' Cameron Bairstow (Australia), the Nets' Bojan Bogdanovic (Croatia), the Jazz's Dante Exum (Australia), and the Pacers' Damjan Rudez (Croatia).
Croatia's Bogdanovic is not to be confused with Serbia's Bogdan Bogdanovic, who was selected in this year's Draft by the Suns and will play at least two years in Turkey before coming to the NBA. The Serbian Bogdanovic is one of six guys taken in the last two drafts who has yet to come over.
The others are Alex Abrines (OKC, Spain), Arselan Kazemi (PHI, Iran), Joffrey Lauvergne (DEN, France), Raul Neto (UTA, Brazil) and Dario Saric (PHI, Croatia).
Including Abrines, 11 of the 12 players on Spain's roster will have NBA ties. They have six current NBA players, three former NBA players, and two guys — Abrines and Sergio Llull (Houston) — whose draft rights are held by NBA teams.
There are four free agents who could use the World Cup as an audition for teams looking to make a late addition to their roster. They include Mexico's Gustavo Ayon and Andray Blatche, who will be playing for the Philippines.
With the four free agents and 46 guys under contract, there will be a total of 50 current NBA players, representing 23 different teams and 18 different countries, at the World Cup, unless there's an unexpected roster change in the next four days. And there will be more in Group A, representing Brazil (4), France, (5) Serbia (1) and Spain (6), than in the USA's Group C (12 from the U.S. and one each from the Dominican Republic, Finland and Turkey).
There are also more than 20 former NBA players on World Cup rosters, including international legend Juan Carlos Navarro (Spain), familiar guys like Carlos Arroyo (Puerto Rico), Rudy Fernandez (Spain), Nenad Krstic (Serbia) and Andres Nocioni (Argentina), and more obscure names (for NBA fans, at least) like David Andersen (Australia), Walter Herrmann (Argentina), Nathan Jawai (Australia) and Damir Markota (Croatia).
Here's the full list, with final World Cup rosters not due until Friday…

Despite Jennifer Lopez's fears that Marc Anthony was unfaithful, a source close to Anthony is denying any infidelity to People. "They started to see life differently," the source told the celeb weekly.
People is also quoting an Anthony "insider" as the source for rumors that the couple have been fighting for months and that "Though they love, admire and respect each other very much, they just needed to be apart."

Latina has confirmed that Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony are in fact divorcing after seven years.
As first reported on People, Marc and Jennifer released a joint statement saying: "We have decided to end our marriage. This was a very difficult decision. We have come to an amicable conclusion on all matters. It is a painful time for all involved and we appreciate the respect of our privacy at this time."
Jennifer and Marc have two children, three-year old twins Max and Emme. Their surprise marriage seven years ago shocked the world, as their surprise split is doing now.

We recently caught up with Jennifer Lopez to hear about her new role as L'Oreal's latest spokesmodel, but soon got to talking about her other new gig: American Idol judge. Here's what she told us:
How does it feel to be back on TV (from your Living Color Days)?
Oh! I didn't really think of it that way. But, yes it's fun. I'm having a great time doing Idol. We're having a ball.

Baghdad war zones. Brazilian slums. Even cookie-cutter American suburbs. They've all been recreated in Puerto Rico, which increasingly is becoming a backdrop in American and European cinema. Rarely does the island play itself on the silver screen. But in recent years, the territory has provided dramatic land- and seascapes for productions starring some of Hollywood's biggest names, including George Clooney and Johnny Depp.

About the Book
"Reading Marcy Dermansky's Bad Marie is like spending a rainy afternoon in a smaller, older movie theater watching a charming French movie with a woman (or a man) you've just met on the street and already like far too much. It's sinful in all the right ways, delicate, seditious, and deliciously evil." — Frederick Barthelme
"Dermansky excels at depicting extreme emotional states and how we rationalize them." —Village Voice
From the critically-acclaimed author of Twins, Marcy Dermansky, comes a highly original novel of Manhattan, Paris, and Mexico; of love and motherhood; and of life on the lam. Fans of Heather O'Neill (Lullabies for Little Criminals) and A.M. Homes (Music for Torching) will revel in the wicked delights of Bad Marie.
Critical Praise
"Marcy Dermansky's slim picaresque follows the misadventures of a nanny who absconds to Paris with her charge and the toddler's dashing father. Marie is the amoral engineer of multiple train wrecks, but in Dermansky's hands she's somehow irresistible." — Time magazine
"Dermansky does proud the long, often sketchy, sometimes illustrious tradition of transgressive fiction with BAD MARIE . . . Her Marie is no cry-baby Anna Karenina fated to a star-crossed love for which she pays with her life." — Elle
"Not enough women write novels like this one. Dermansky is funny and fearless. I like Marie so much because she seems to care so little whether I like her or not. That's a working definition of badass. Bad Marie is one." — Esquire
"[Marie is] an antiheroine for our time . . . A page-turning melodrama told with chilled cosmopolitan irony, the moral puzzles at the heart of BAD MARIE linger after the delicious meringue of the book has been consumed. Cool trick, Ms. Dermansky." — Newsday
"Deliciously wicked." — Slate
"I didn't want to finish this book any time soon, didn't want to emerge from its dark and wondrous world. My God, what a writer -- absolutely unpredictable, wild with intellect, spilling with charm and sadness and humanity. Marie, the main character here, is literary gold, worthy of Flaubert." — Mary Robison
"Marcy Dermansky's BAD MARIE is so very very bad that I enjoyed every word. A tour de force in mounting suspense as its witless narrator and the baby she's stolen careen from one all-too-probable disaster to the next. Delicious." — Terese Svoboda, author of Cannibal and Pirate Talk or Mermelade
"By positing a character who's indulged in all of the deadly sins, Dermansky challenges the reader to finally and forever denounce her character Marie. The fact that this reader can't is testament to the book's power and smarts. A naughty pleasure, a philosophical romp, heady hedonism: what could be better?" — Antonya Nelson, author of Nothing Right
"[BAD MARIE is] sinful in all the right ways, delicate, seditious, and deliciously evil." — Frederick Barthelme
"Marcy Dermansky makes it easy to love Marie, a husband-stealing, baby-snatching, underachieving ex-con . . . Fast-paced and unsentimental, BAD MARIE blazes with life." — Barb Johnson, author of More of This World or Maybe Another
"BAD MARIE is impossible to turn away from. It is as empathic as it is disturbing, as delicate as it is savage. Sly, honest, and extraordinary, this gem of a book should come with a warning: you'll have to remind yourself to breathe." — Tish Cohen, author of The Truth About Delilah Blue
"Marcy Dermansky's BAD MARIE is all about the tricksy margins of human experience, stolen moments and the people who steal them." — Ben Greenman, author of What He's Poised to Do and Please Step Back
"[I]rresistible. In swift, vivid prose Marcy Dermansky has created a wonderful portrait of a woman who lives right at the edge of acceptable behaviour. I couldn't wait to see what Marie would do next, and I couldn't stop myself from cheering her on." — Margot Livesey, author of The House on Fortune Street and Eva Moves The Furniture
"BAD MARIE unfolds in precise, gripping measure. But as the story keeps taking a turn for the worse, ratcheting up the tension, it is buoyed by the lovely relationship at its heart." — Mark Sarvas, author of Harry, Revised
"A wickedly nihilistic and suspenseful tale of erotic mayhem . . . .[E]dgy, speedy, stylish, unpredictable, funny, and heart-stopping." — Booklist
"Marie, the protagonist of Marcy Dermansky's witty, disturbing new novel, is almost completely unlikable, and yet stands out as one of the more interesting characters in recent fiction....Before you know it, the book becomes a skillfully paced page-turner...weirdly hilarious...nothing if not captivating." — Creative Loafing

Top ten: Museum shops
These NYC institutions bridge the gap between art and commerce with well-curated stores---and nary a lame logo T-shirt in sight.
Fri Jun 24 2011
Brooklyn Museum Shop
Anyone who has love for Kings County will appreciate this spacious lobby-level store, which serves as a study on the infinite ways one can express their borough pride through branded products. To wit, you can keep cool this summer with Catstudio's colorful Brooklyn-themed tall frosted glasses (four for $45) and protect your table by using coasters designed to resemble NYC manhole covers (four for $85), then cruise Prospect Park on the back of a limited-edition Andy Warhol Brooklyn Bridge skateboard deck ($95). The shop is also bolstering its eco-friendly offerings, such as a folding basket made from recycled chopsticks ($30) and Boylan soda-pop bottles that have been repurposed into tumblers (four for $33). 200 Eastern Pkwy between Flatbush and Washington Aves, Prospect Heights, Brooklyn (718-501-6259, shop.brooklynmuseum.org)
The Cooper Shop at the Jewish Museum
While you can get your hands on artfully designed ketubahs (Jewish marriage contracts), personalized wedding mezuzahs and design-driven ceremonial gifts at the Jewish Museum's higher-end Celebrations store, located in a posh townhouse next door, we prefer to revel in the more affordable jewelry, accessories and home decor stocked in its Cooper Shop, located off the museum's main lobby. You won't have to wait for a special occasion to rock Hadas Shaham's gold-plated ring pendant necklaces featuring a concrete gem stone ($150) or tri-charm necklaces engraved with the words love, life and peace, made exclusively for the museum by Carolee ($95). Ward off bad luck from your home with Sebastian Bergne's evil-eye vases featuring Swarovski-crystal-rock pupils ($45--$60) or keep good memories alive by framing a cherished photo in the Jewish Museum's ketubah frame, whose delicate border mimics that of an 18th-century Italian marriage contract in the museum's collection ($85). 1109 Fifth Ave at 92nd St (212-423-3211, shop.thejewishmuseum.org)
International Center of Photography Museum Store
Whether you're a professional shutterbug or an amateur photographer, you're bound to score at this specialty shop situated in the lobby of the ICP. Make your Facebook photos that much cooler by using SuperHeadz lo-fi mini digital cameras that are no bigger than a pack of gum ($60) and Lomography's glow-in-the-dark Diana F+ model ($110), which takes pinhole photos and panoramic images while looking damn cool doing it. USB drives dressed like cartoon characters Chococat ($35), R2D2 ($40) and Buddy Chub ($35) can store all of those gorgeous images you take, while a photo album that resembles a vintage camera ($13) is a cheeky way to display all of your prints. 1133 Sixth Ave at 43rd St (212-857-9725, shopping.icp.org/store)
The Met Store
Known for its thick coffee-table tomes and silky scarves, the Met Store is a bazaar where fine art mixes with prints and postcards. Not to be overlooked, though, is the impressive jewelry selection, inspired by the Metropolitan Museum of Art's storied collections. Fans of the Egyptian wing will love sporting hand-knotted turquoise beaded necklaces ($75) and hand-enameled link-bracelet watches ($150) based on a finely detailed gorget on view there. From the Costume Institute comes a vibrant Parisian art nouveau hinged dragonfly bracelet ($165) and Art Deco crystal button earrings ($45) based on a pair of white metal shoe buckles. Guys needn't feel left out, thanks to the assortment of handsome timepieces, including a skeleton watch ($295) that winds automatically with the motion of the wearer's arm. 1000 Fifth Ave at 82nd St (212-879-5500, ext 4092; store.metmuseum.org)
MoMA Design Store
When it comes to sourcing unique gifts that marry high design with affordable prices, MoMA's pair of sleek shops can't be beat. Though you'll find kitschy cool housewares, such as Ela Cindoruk delicate coasters cut from surplus Turkish newspapers (100 for $10), alongside eye-catching jewelry items, including Ward Wallau cufflinks fashioned from recycled steel ball bearings ($115), right now, we're crushing on items inspired by the late, great architect Frank Lloyd Wright. Scoop up old-fashioned glass tumblers ($9 each) featuring a butterfly pattern adapted from one of his window details or wrap yourself up in H. Price silk scarves ($55) based on one of his geometric rug designs. 81 Spring St between Broadway and Crosby St (646-613-1367) * 44 W 53rd St between Fifth and Sixth Aves (212-767-1050) * momastore.org.
The Museum of Arts & Design Store
This petite ground-level shop stocks purchasable goods from local and international craftsmen that might have you questioning whether or not you just saw those very same items on display in the exhibitions upstairs. Though the store takes pride in its exclusive collection of ceramics ($28--$300) and glassware ($38--$1,500), you can still get highbrow goods at reasonable prices. Set the table for your next dinner party with Brooklyn artist Jason Miller's ceramic plates (set of four for $100) that appear to be a mash-up of a modern bird design with more traditional china patterns. RabLabs's natural agate coasters (set of four for $58) are beautiful, bright slices of stone that are durable enough to withstand watermarks, while Liz Goulet Dubois for Fred Studio's Unzipped glass bowl is a remarkable, hand-blown reproduction of an ordinary plastic zip-top bag ($25). Still getting snail mail? A two-tone-handled letter opener ($52) made of exotic cocobolo wood and carved by Rhode Island carpenter couple Thomas Davin and Mary Kessler will help you zip through preapproved credit-card offers in no time. 2 Columbus Circle at 59th St (212-299-7700, thestore.madmuseum.org)
New Museum Store
Zany gifts and provocative novelties abound at this petite gift shop, shoved to the side of the museum's spacious lobby. Rather than logo-covered trinkets, the retail area's sparse shelves hold artist creations, like Scotsman David Shrigley's porcelain cocaine and heroin shakers ($125 for the pair), Nora Ligorano and Marshall Reese's seven deadly sins snow globes ($125) and Conceptual artist Alyce Santoro's half-polyester, half-recycled audiocassette tape Sonic Fabric ties ($120) that play audio when you run a tape head over them. Alert oncoming traffic with a New Museum x dringdring hand-painted, weather-resistant metal bicycle bell ($35) or snag one of Brooklyn artist Julia Chiang's 50 limited-edition, black-glazed porcelain apples, each with a bite missing ($200). You won't need a Ph.D. in art history to spot the symbolism. 235 Bowery at Prince St (212-343-0460, newmuseumstore.org)
New York Transit Museum Store
Admit it: No matter how much you loathe taking public transportation, there's something inexplicably irresistible about anything emblazoned with imagery of our city's mass transit system. Luckily for you, this subterranean store (there's also a satellite location in Grand Central Terminal) prides itself on the many ways it can display the MTA's intellectual property, be it image, logo or map. Highlights include sterling-silver replica subway token cufflinks ($150), subway-map boxer shorts ($30) and MetroCard playing cards ($5). Be prepared for inclement weather with a pair of rubber rain boots ($38) splattered with subway-line letters and numbers, and a matching umbrella ($26). For sunnier days, there are old-timey Coney Island cotton beach towels ($36) based on an actual retro subway ad. Boerum Pl and Schermerhorn St, Brooklyn Heights (718-694-1600, transitmuseumstore.com)
The Shop at Cooper-Hewitt
Housed in Andrew Carnegie's original library and office in a belle epoque mansion overlooking Central Park, this handsome store meticulously merchandises to "screw with people's expectations," says director Gregory Krum. Ruminate on the intersection of design and daily life with Japanese-patterned-rice-paper masking tape (set of six for $22). Preparing your next home-cooked meal will be more fun when you use a copper turtle-shaped grater ($38) and can keep tabs on what you're baking by referencing Alessi's replica of a wall clock designed for a 1965 exhibition in Florence ($80). You can also find accessories that will make any basic getup look cooler, such as German-designed, delicate feather pins ($40) and Idea International's wristwatch that's a comical interpretation of the pixelated graphics of '80s video games ($70). 2 E 91st St at Fifth Ave (212-849-8355, cooperhewittshop.org)
The Museum Store at the Studio Museum in Harlem
With more than 100 obscure and hard-to-find tomes on African and African-American art, this ground-level boutique is a bibliophile's paradise. The museum partnered with luxe publishing house Rizzoli to create Harlem: A Century in Images ($55), depicting the neighborhood's role as a source of inspiration for writers, artists and musicians. But you don't need to be a book nerd to appreciate the museum's signature black is beautiful line of T-shirts ($25) and mugs ($12); the line was introduced a decade ago and inspired by the slogan of the 1960s Black Power movement. Other highlights include Wardell Milan's umbrella ($30) featuring black-and-white sketches of Harlem street scenes, interior designer Sheila Bridges's trademark Harlem toile splashed across limited-edition porcelain plates (six for $83) and artist Khalif Kelly's cute and colorful digital print Robot Pickaninny Remix (The Return of Supercube) ($1,200). 144 W 125th St between Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Blvd (Seventh Ave) and Malcolm X Blvd (Lenox Ave) (212-864-4500, ext 237; studiomuseum.org/shop)

Blogging at Middlebury
WordPress [1] is an open-source platform that is used at Middlebury for individual blogs and as a content management system for creating web sites in general. Uses include journals, creative writing tools, and news publishing. You can log into the Midd instance of WordPress with your Midd username and password.
Log in
To log into WordPress at Middlebury, locate the "login" link on whatever blog you want to contribute to. If the blog has no "log in" link then go to: http://sites.middlebury.edu/wp-admin/. Type in your Midd username (first part of your email address before @middlebury.edu) and password (same password you use to log into Midd email).
New Blog Creation and Access
New Blogs
You must have a Middlebury user account to create a WordPress blog. Here are the steps:
- go to the login page
- then go to the sign-up page to give your blog a name. Do not use "wp" at start of blog name.
For more information see: WordPress @ Middlebury
Course Sites
To create a course site using WordPress, begin at the Course Hub. This will make it easy for your students to find the site, and it will automatically keep permissions up-to-date via the course roster (see more at Group support added to WordPress).
Instructions are here Course Hub: Adding a Resource to Your Course Hub Site
Access and Roles
WordPress allows you to define who can access your blog/site (anyone, middlebury community, registered users, admins only( and what role individual users have (administrator, editor, author, contributor, subscriber)
Access (Privacy)
Access to a given blog/site can be defined in Dashboard > Settings > Privacy. Here are the steps:
- Go to Dashboard
- Go to Settings > Reading > Site Visibility
- Specify which option best meets your needs
Access can also be restricted by adding password protection to posts or pages. Password protected posts/pages will only be accessible to blog/site administrators, editors, authors (of the post/page password-protected) or any site visitor who is given the password. Here's how to password protect a post/page:
- Add a new or edit an existing post or page
- In the Publish panel chose edit the "Visibility"
- Select Password protected and type in a password
- Click the "OK" button
- Click the "Publish" or "Update" button
Add Users
WordPress allows you to add "users" to your blog/site and assign them roles (administrator, editor, author, contributor, subscriber). When you create a WordPress site, by default you will be the only person who can access it. Here are the steps for giving access to additional users:
- Browse to your blog
- Click on the Log In, using your Midd email name and password
- Click on Add New to pull down menu
- To add an individual, use the "Add An Individual User" window and type in either a person's name or username. To add a class, follow the instructions below.
- Begin typing in a name. Wait for a couple of seconds
- A list of names will appear. Choose the correct one.
- Use the drop down menu to give appropriate access
- Click on the ADD USER button.
Roles and access:
- Administrator - Somebody who has access to all the administration features
- Editor - Somebody who can publish and manage posts and pages as well as manage other users' posts, etc.
- Author - Somebody who can publish and manage their own posts
- Contributor - Somebody who can write and manage their posts but not publish them
- Subscriber - Somebody who can only manage their profile
[Alternatively, if you are adding group members as users (see below) then access to sites for your course can be managed in the same way that you manage access to your Courses Folders. This has the advantage of adding users once to give them permissions to any course platforms that need authorization. See Managing Access to Classes Folders and Other Folders on Middfiles.]
Adding Group Members as Users
Groups of users can be added to your WordPress site as well
- Go to your site Dashboard
- Go to Users > Add New
- Under "Add Users By Group" Type in the name of the group you want to add (i.e. span0101a-f11) and wait for this group to appear in the drop down list
- Chose a role for these group members and click the the "Add Group" button
Group synchronization details
By default, WordPress will keep the group in sync and add new group members to the site when they log in. Similarly, if users are removed from the group they will have their role in the WordPress site removed the next time they log in.
The group features in WordPress respect the highest role given to a user and will not reduce a user's role if a group they are a member of is added with a lower role.
Since users are only added to or removed from the site when they log in, the site's user-list may not fully reflect the current state of group-membership. If for some reason you need to fully update the user list, press the "Sync Now" button next to each group.
Stopping group synchronization
If you no longer wish to synchronize a particular group, there are two options:
- "Stop Syncing" which leaves all users in the user-list with their existing roles intact.
- "Stop Syncing and Remove Users" which will remove all users who were synced via the group and have not had their role changed.
Your own "administrator" role will not be removed even if you happen to be a member of the group that you are removing.
Add Non-Middlebury Users
To add Non-Middlebury users to a WordPress site, a Guest Account must first be created by the Non-Middlebury user. The guest account can be created at https://middguests.middlebury.edu/. Once created, the user must log in to sites.middlebury.edu so WordPress can see that the guest user is available. After the guest user logs in to WordPress, the site owner can find the guest user and add them to their site with the desired role.
WordPress sites can be organized in a variety of ways.
An author adds material to their blog by creating posts. Posts may be of any length, and can include text, audio and video. Once an post is created, it may be previewed, saved as unpublished, or save as published. Only published post will be seen by visitors. Posts can be edited after they are published. When posts are published they appear on the main page of your site in reverse chronological order (i.e. most recent posts first).
Authors can also add content to their site by creating pages. Like posts, pages may be of any length and can include text, audio and video. When pages are published a link to them will be created either in the top navigation bar of the site or in the "Pages" widget in the site's sidebar. You can change the order of pages on the menu by going into edit for a page and assigning a number in the order field.
Pages vs Posts
For more information of the difference between pages and pages, see:
WordPress @ Middlebury > Techniques > Pages vs Posts
Categories and Tags
All posts can be assigned one or more categories and/or tags for use in a guided search. New categories can only be added by site administrators or editors and can be organized hierachically. New tags can be added by site administrators, editors and authors.
All the categories/tags on a site can be listed using the "tag cloud" or "categories" widgets. For more information about widgets, see:
WordPress @ Middlebury > Widgets
Themes allow you to adjust the look and functionality of a site. You can select a new theme for your site at any point; the appearance will change but the content will remain the same. Colors, layout, and navigational tools all can be different from one theme to the next. Find new themes in the Dashboard of your site, under "Appearance."
Widgets are available to add character and functionality to the blog. Some widgets that are available include:
- Calendar
- Latest entries
- Search
- Creative Commons License
- Tag cloud
- Subscribe to feed
A feed widget can be added to create a list of links to any other blog or website that has an rss feed. Also, third party widgets can be added.
To change the way widgets are displayed on your blog, activate the Display Widgets plugin. More information about the Display Widgets plugin is here: WordPress Plugin Spotlight: Organize your Widgets with Display Widgets.
Plugins are features that are added to WordPress to expand its functionality. Some of the plugins we have added to WordPress at Middlebury have been highlighted in the LIS Blog. See Plugin Spotlight. Additionally, an overview of many plugins sorted by function is available in this wiki. Please review our WordPress plugin requests documentation prior to requesting the addition of any plugins to the system.
Blog Authors, Editors and Administrators
Visitors to a blog may leave a comment through the use of a simple web form. In most cases, this is a name, an email address, and the text of their comment. Authors may decide whether comments appear immediately on the blog, or if they are held until the author can read them.
Blog Visitors, Subscribers
To comment on a Midd WordPress blog, click on the link to comment (usually below the title of the post or below the post text). If you have a Middlebury user account and you see fields for name and email address, this indicates you should log in before you post. If you are NOT part of the Middlebury community (i.e. you don't have a Middlebury user account), you need to fill in your name and email address.
Adding Images
The "Media Add New" screen allows you to add images which can be used in posts/page on your site. It can also be used for other media, but video and audio are better included via MiddMedia, described in the section Embedding Video.
Uploading media from your local computer into the Media Library is quite simple. Two 'uploader' methods, Multi-File Uploader and Browser Uploader, are provided. The Multi-File Uploader is the primary method for adding media to the Media Library, but if doesn't work then click the "Browser Uploader" link to use the Browser Uploader.
Image File Size
All sites on our WordPress instance have a storage quota, somewhat erroneously named "Maximum upload file size". This is the total space allotted for file uploads.\
In order to remain within file size quotas, and as a matter of best practice for the web, files should be resized in image editing software.
A good rule of thumb is that image files should be .jpg, or .png files that are no larger than 100K. Image dimensions should be no larger than the visible screen when viewed at 100% scale, or 1:1 scale. If your image is larger than 100K, especially if it's 1M or more, or if your image exceeds the screens viewable area when viewed at 100%, you should resize the image in image editing software prior to uploading.
WordPress does not currently resize images for file size optimization, only for display on the screen. If you upload a 10M image, it will remain 10M and consume 10% of your storage quota.
RSS and Subscribing
WordPress supports both publishing its own content via RSS (really simple syndication) as well as accessing RSS feeds with widgets. Blogs are RSS feeds for posts/entries, comments, categories, tags and authors. Some blogs will display links to some of these feeds, most commonly, the feeds for posts and comments. How you subscribe to a feeds depends on how your browser and computer is configured to handle RSS. Some browsers may be configured such that when you click on an RSS feed link, you are given an option to chose what desktop or web application to use to read the feed.
Here is one way of subscribing to RSS feeds that will work on nearly all browsers/computers:
- Locate the link to the RSS feed you want to subscribe to
- Right click (or control click) on on the RSS link and chose "Copy Link Location" or "Copy Link" or "Copy Shortcut."
- Open you favorite RSS Reader (or try Google Reader), and find the "add subscription" or "subscribe" link or button
- Paste the RSS link url you copied above and click "add" or "save" button/link
The url (web address) of RSS feeds in WordPress follow a common syntax. Thus if the blog you want to subscribe to doesn't display RSS feed links, you can always figure out what they are by using the following convention:
Posts RSS:
Comments RSS:
Category RSS:
Tag RSS:
Author RSS:
Post Comments RSS:
Best way to get these urls is to go to the blog page that has the content you want to subscribe to and add "/feed" to the end of the url.
Subscribing to Private Blogs
When you are logged in and viewing a private blog, the RSS feed links contain a special key unique to you and the blog that gives your reader access to the feed. There is nothing special you need to do, just subscribe as usual and feeds from private blogs will now work without redirecting your reader to the login page.
Q. Oops, I sent my private feed link to everyone! Now what?
A. If you accidentally share your personal feed link with others, you can go to your profile page and revoke your key for the blog in question.
Q. If someone finds out my key, can they use it to access my other sites?
A. No, keys are per-user and per-site.
Q. I removed a user from my private site, will they still see updates?
A. No, the feed keys just authenticate the user, they still are checked against the subscriber list before showing them content.
Q. Will my feed key let me edit without logging in?
A. No, the key only grants access to feeds, nothing more.
Links to audio files in a WordPress entry will appear in the RSS feed. Visitors may subscribe to this feed as a podcast. To set up your WordPress blog to function as a podcast, do the following:
- Log into your Blog
- Click on the Plugins link in the upper righthand corner
- Chose to Activate the Audio Player plugin
- Click on links to Write > Post
- Give you post a title and add text (describing your podcast post)
- Click on the Add Media "starburst" in the post editor
- Click on the MiddMedia tab
- Chose to show files in your MiddMedia or Upload a new file to MiddMedia
- Click on the "use" button for the file you want to use in your post
- Click on the Publish button to publish your podcast post
Liveblogging is the practice of covering an event as it happens on your blog. Rather than a composed post that covers your thoughts on a subject and is published once, a live blog post is updated with snippets of your thoughts on the event as it occurs. Common uses of liveblogging are covering a speech, television show, or sporting event. The practice allows the author to interact with their readers in real time via comments on the live blog post.
To do liveblogging on your site, activate the Liveblog plugin. More information about the Liveblog plugin is here: WordPress Plugin Spotlight: Liveblog.
Embedding Video
Wordpress allows users two different methods to embed web-based and locally hosted video into their site.
To Embed Web Based Video (YouTube, Vimeo, etc)
- Log into your blog and navigate to the page or post where you would like to embed the video.
- In another window copy the URL of the video that you wish to embed on your page.
- Return to your blog and paste the URL into the text box of your page and post. The size of the video will vary based on your theme.
- Click Publish or Update and preview your post/page to view the embedded video.
To Embed Video from MiddMedia
- Log into your blog and navigate to the page or post where you would like to embed the video from MiddMedia.
- Click the Add Media button below the page/post title field.
- Select MiddMedia from the column on the left hand side of your screen.
- Enter the video width and height (in pixels) that you would like to use. Then click the Show Files button next to your username. (Note that by clicking the down arrow next to your username you can select alternate groups that you have access to.)
- Locate the video that you wish to use and click the Use button to the left of the video screen shot.
- You will return to the edit screen where you can now Publish or Update the page and view your embedded MiddMedia video.
To Embed Video from Panopto
- Log into your blog and enable the Panopto Embed Handler plugin.
- navigate to the page or post where you would like to embed the video from Panopto.
- In another window, navigate to go/panopto and log in with your Middlebury single sign-on account.
- Select the video you wish to embed, and click the "Share" icon.
- Copy the link URL to the Panopto video, and paste the URL into the text box of your page/post.
- Click Publish or Update and preview your post/page to view the embedded Panopto video.
Access to Blogs
A visitor can view all published entries in a blog. Unpublished entries may have a scheduled publishing date, or they may be manually published.
A blog owner may allow, or not allow comments on their blog.
To limit blog access just to students enrolled in a class, do the following:
- Go the "dashboard" of your blog (you'll need to log in and click on link to site admin or one of the links in the upper right corner.
- Click on the link to privacy under Settings (in the right sidebar).
- Chose to make your blog "visible only to registered members."
- Click on link to "add new" under Users.
- Under "Bulk-Add Users By Group" begin typing in the course code for your class until your class appears in the drop down menu and you can select it.
- Click on the "Add Group Members" button and chose to add them as subscriber or authors (if you want them to create their own posts).
Duplicating a blog
A blog owner may want to duplicate their site. Perhaps to use for future reference, to test a major redesign, or for other various reasons.
The easiest way to duplicate a Wordpress site is to utilize the Wordpress Export and Import features which are both located under the Tools menu item within the site's dashboard.
To duplicate a Wordpress blog site, follow the steps below:
- Before exporting your existing Wordpress site, the new duplicate site needs to be created. Go to the following page and create the new site: http://sites.middlebury.edu/wp-signup.php
- Once the new site has been created, you can navigate to your current site dashboard and select Tools->Export. Under this section you will export your blog contents. Be sure to select "All Content" if you wish to export all of the content types.
- Now you can navigate to your new site's dashboard. Select Tools->Import and select the file that you exported in the last step. This will import all of your content from the original site.
- Uploaded Images and other file types may still need to be manually moved over and you may need to manually update a few display settings as there are certain Wordpress themes that do not export all of these settings.
For additional information on exporting and importing a Wordpress blog, please refer to the Wordpress links below:
Exporting your site content: https://en.support.wordpress.com/export/
Importing your site content: https://en.support.wordpress.com/import/
Removing a blog
You can delete a blog that you own.
- Go to Dashboard
- Go to Tools > Delete site
- You will receive an e-mail, which you must respond to for deletion to happen.

Related LinksFederal Aid First Scholarships and GrantsMCNY has established funding under its aid program to help students finance their education. Scholarships are awarded to degree students based on need, merit, or a combination of the two. These funds do not require repayment and are primarily scholarships applied towards your tuition costs. To be considered for institutional scholarships, undergraduate students should complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) by the stated deadline each year. Need-based scholarships may be reduced or canceled if all requested applications and verification documents are not received by the stated deadlines. Generally, verification documents must be completed and submitted to the Office of Student Financial Services within thirty days of the request. All scholarship/award applicants must have an application on file; a FAFSA - Free Application for Federal Student Aid; be in good academic standing; not be in default on loans; and have all required documents for acceptance to MCNY. For scholarships/awards to be applied to a student account the student must first use all eligible grants, such as PELL and TAP, to their account first. International students on a visa will not be required to file a FAFSA for consideration. Please use the chart below to determine which types of aid you may be eligible to apply for and the required application process, if any.
Financial Aid Appeal Process: Students whose families have experienced a change in their financial circumstances since they completed their financial aid application should complete the front and back pages of the Petition for Special Circumstances to help Student Financial Services determine whether additional financial assistance may be available. All petitions should be complete and submitted to the Office of Student Financial Services with all required documentation. All completed petitions will be reviewed in accordance with federal regulations and institutional policies. It is important to note that not all changes in financial circumstances will result in increased financial assistance. Despite the availability of MCNY scholarship funding, it is highly recommended that all students pursue scholarship funding available from different agencies or organizations outside of the college. While it is a student's responsibility to find scholarships offered outside of the college, Student Financial Services offers tools to help in the search for scholarships. You may check the Resources page for external scholarship information that may be relevant to you. The list is updated regularly as we become aware of new scholarship opportunities. Keep in mind that the quest for external funding is time-consuming. The most important thing to remember about scholarship and fellowship searches is to start early, as application deadlines may be established several months to a year in advance of award disbursal. |

Great Lakes Steelhead Flylines
Well, just want to hear some different opionions on favorite lines that you guys use in the Great Lakes region with spey rods?
Our rivers in the Great Lakes region are generally smaller, tighter, and contain more obstacles than western steelhead streams. Although, there are exceptions with waterways like the St. Mary's river, Muskegon River, Big Manistee and Niagra River. Spey fishing has become popular in recent years, but many anglers perform double spey, single spey, and roll casts using european, fast action rods. This allows anglers to high stick nymph as well, yet use their rod in larger rivers and in the surf too.
I do alot of indicator nymphing with my spey rod, and a floating line is needed to nymph effectivly. A line that has a long belly is best, since it will allow better mending and roll casting when presenting the fly. Often, a long belly line such as a double taper will not have enough punch to cast indicators and splitshot. This lead to the question....do I buy a DT line for mending, roll casting, and better presentation, or do I rely on a short head nymphing line that takes alot more effort to mend line and roll cast? I looked at the Windcutter but it had a long tapered head that intergrated into a longer belly, which allows to cast into the wind and punch, but has a harder time with casting splitshot and indidcators, and does not support enough belly to handle cross body roll casts. I looked at the steelhead/atlantic salmon flylines and I found one that was perfect. The RIO Atlanitc salmon/steelhead flyline. A friend of mine is a guide and gave me a casting demonstration to show how slick the line was. It has a head that is 85ft. long, and it is really thick up in front to punch with ease.
I also like Airflo's quick descent sinking lines that are very thin and cut through the water easily. I use them for throwing speys in rivers and also to get down deep in the surf.
Let me know what lines you guys use and why you like them.

Face full of wrinkles, got a second chin Hair is all greying, needs dying again Don't quite remember these curves being there And when did my hips get so big and square Eyesight is failing, hearing bout gone Arms waving bye bye, lost all their tone OMG what happened to my chest What used to point onward now points SE & SW Gravity is not prejudice, it grabs us all What once was so perky has taken a big fall Arther and Rhitis have both moved in Now Bengay and Icyhot are my new best friends They say that the memory is the first thing to go Slowly forgetting all that we know Mother Nature is cruel, this we know well Take it from me, old age is hell.

Mechanics Cooperative Bank has named two students recipients of its 2012 scholarships.
Nicole R. Ledoux, a recent graduate of Bridgewater-Raynham Regional High School, received $1,500 and John A. O'Neil, who recently graduated from Fall River's Durfee High School, received $1,000.
While in high school, both students excelled in academics, becoming members of the National Honors Society, taking a variety of advanced courses and participating in school and community organizations.
Ledoux served as captain of her school's robotics team and was a library docent all four years. She also volunteered for the American Cancer Society's Relay for Life and assisted with prom-dress drives.
In the fall, she'll attend the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, where she'll major in computer science.
O'Neil, who played varsity baseball and served as captain of the varsity golf and basketball teams, was also senior class president. He'll attend the University of Pennsylvania in the fall, where he will major in business.
Bank President and CEO Joseph T. Baptista said he's proud of both students and wishes them success in college. •

Willie Faloon suffered a shoulder injury in training and is unavailable for selection so Robbie Diack is promoted from the bench to start at number 8.
As a result, Pedrie Wannenburg moves to blindside flanker and Chris Henry switches to the openside flank. Thomas Anderson, who will join Connacht in the summer, will start on the bench as back row cover.
The province's back-line is unchanged from the win over Connacht at Ravenhill two weeks ago, with Darren Cave and IRUPA Young Player of the Year Nevin Spence continuing their centre partnership.
Ireland internationals Stephen Ferris (knee), Paddy Wallace (thumb) and Andrew Trimble (thumb) remain unavailable for selection due to injury, as does Springbok prop BJ Botha who has a knee injury.
Ulster require only a losing bonus point against the Dragons to ensure progression to the Magners League play-offs.
However, a win for the Ulstermen, coupled with a defeat for Leinster against Glasgow, would secure a home semi-final spot for Brian McLaughlin's side.
ULSTER (v Newport Gwent Dragons): Adam D'Arcy; Conor Gilroy, Darren Cave, Nevin Spence, Simon Danielli; Ian Humphreys, Ruan Pienaar; Tom Court, Rory Best (capt), Declan Fitzpatrick, Johann Muller, Dan Tuohy, Pedrie Wannenburg, Chris Henry, Robbie Diack.
Replacements: Andi Kyriacou, Paddy McAllister, Jerry Cronin, Tim Barker, Thomas Anderson, Paul Marshall, Ian Whitten, Conor Gaston.

The couple established the Ann D. and W. Mitt Romney Charitable Foundation in 1993. It lay mostly dormant until 1999, when the couple deposited more than $3.6 million worth of high-tech stocks in it and began to make significant contributions.
Now known as the Tyler Charitable Foundation, it is scheduled to release its 2010 financial reports later this month.
"Mitt and Ann Romney are very involved in the community," said campaign spokesman Eric Fehrnstrom. "Some of their activity is public through their foundation, but that is not the only vehicle for their philanthropy. Their charitable giving is not something they generally talk about, but I think it's fair to say they feel an obligation to give back."
The foundation has been the Romneys' main vehicle for giving, whether to keep the lights on with a $10,000 check to a homeless shelter for veterans that couldn't pay its electric bill or to send relief to victims of Hurricane Katrina ($10,000) and the South Asia earthquake and tsunami ($25,000).
The GOP presidential hopeful has donated $127,000 in proceeds from his 2010 campaign book, "No Apology: The Case for American Greatness." Seven charities serving children, cancer and MS patients and severely wounded veterans got donations ranging from $10,000 to nearly $33,000.
The businessman-turned-politician has also foregone payment for work he did as governor and as head of the Olympics.
As head of the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, Romney took no salary for three years while donating $1 million to the games. Later, while he was entitled to $135,000 annually as governor of Massachusetts, he drew a salary of $1 a year for serving as the state's chief executive. And while he hasn't explicitly said so this time around, Romney vowed during his last campaign for the White House that, if elected, he would donate his $400,000 salary as president to charity.
While her husband was forgoing a paycheck, Ann Romney donated her time to a variety of causes. She has worked as a board member of New England Chapter of the MS Society to raise awareness of multiple sclerosis, the disease with which she was diagnosed in 1998, and has been a long-time supporter of the United Way of Massachusetts. She also has served as director of the Best Friends Foundation, a controversial program that promotes abstinence-only sex education for inner-city girls.
Excluding gifts to the Mormon Church and BYU, the Romney foundation typically donated a bit more than $200,000 annually to charities over the last decade. But some years the couple gave relatively little. In 2002 and 2003, they donated $75,500 and $81,200, respectively

Thanks for the info. I'm sure this only is the tip of the iceberg. I only wish we had more such greedy, uncaring bastards such as this family. Just think, he won't show his tax returns because they might show that he paid his taxes just like most of us, BY THE RULES. What a bastard.
i don't care about that 47% of americans either........maybe i should seek my party's nomination next time!

Although Marx is popularly thought of as the originator of the phrase, the slogan was common to the socialist movement and was first used by Louis Blanc in 1839, in "The organization of work". The origin of this phrasing has also been attributed to the French utopian Morelly, who proposed in his 1755 Code of Nature "Sacred and Fundamental Laws that would tear out the roots of vice and of all the evils of a society" including
I. Nothing in society will belong to anyone, either as a personal possession or as capital goods, except the things for which the person has immediate use, for either his needs, his pleasures, or his daily work.
II. Every citizen will be a public man, sustained by, supported by, and occupied at the public expense.
III. Every citizen will make his particular contribution to the activities of the community according to his capacity, his talent and his age; it is on this basis that his duties will be determined, in conformity with the distributive laws.
Some scholars trace the origin of the phrase to the New Testament. In the parable of the Kingdom of Heaven, Jesus spoke of what we are given, according to our abilities; to test the commitment of the steward to his master. In Acts the Apostles' lifestyle is described as communal (without individual possession), and uses the phrase "distribution was made unto every man according as he had need":
Matthew 25:14-30: And to one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to each according to his ability. And he went abroad at once.Acts 4:32: All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of their possessions was their own, but they shared everything they had.Others dispute that the Bible supports this idea.[citation needed]

One cannot reason someone out of something they were not reasoned into. - Jonathan Swift
It's always based individually on whose ox is being gored. Romney's comments were ill advise, NOT because it had too much truth to it, but he should have realized it would be skewed to mean what the pathetic MSP wants to make of it. Only the braindamaged Democrats on the SS rolls are calling him an out of touch cretin. The sane people in the electorate understand completely what he's saying. But it's hard to reach the sycophants with their head stuck where the sun don't shine.
Poll: 64% Agree With Romney On The 47%

According to a new poll from Rasmussen, Americans strongly believe there is too much dependence on government:
Americans strongly believe that there is too much government dependency in the country today. The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 64% of Adults think there are too many Americans dependent on the government for financial aid. Just 10% think not enough Americans are dependent on the government, while 16% say the level of dependency is about right.The problem with polls like this, of course, is that people are only nominally against government dependence. Farmers who get huge amounts of government subsidies are against the expansion of welfare programs. People on welfare may be against farm subsidies. Giant "green energy" companies, whose very existence hinges on government subsidies and mandates for their products, may not like other sorts of government economic intervention.
Which is why strong majorities can be against government dependence even as there clear overlap between those who are dependent and those who oppose dependency. It is how the entitlement has divided and conquered us. All of us want to shrink government, just not our favorite slice of government.
When the one you love becomes a memory, that memory becomes a treasure.
If we try Obamas way , even if he was to tax millionaires at 100 % it will only run the Gov for 3 months. He doesn't know what he's doing

Octoberfest will be over by the time I arrive. It is the last week in September. :(

This is turning into a pretty funny thread because your dread of the trip is just ooooooozing out all over SI. These folks are trying to get you excited about the trip. Rest assured that during that month we will surf in your memory.
In that case, I'd be chasing all the German tail I could (if your single of course)
The Eisbach wave. Eisbach River in Munich.
Think about 2 1/2 hours from where you'll be.
Here's some advice: Don't worry about surfing while you're over there. Enjoy Germany. Best semester of my life
I lived in Newcastle for a year, and while there met some guys who would surf Whitley Bay. I checked it out a few times and just couldn't get myself stoked enough to paddle out in 40 degree water to surf 1-2 ft windslop. I'm sure the waves are better occasionally, but it's probably rare. It's only a month - either follow margo's advice and look into cheap flights to somewhere with more reliable waves, or enjoy the culture for a month.
I used to get excited about this stuff. After 3 years straight of about 100% travel for work, I got burnt out. Now, I try to avoid all travel that isn't specifically to places I want to go to for vacations. It won't likely be as bad as I make it out to be, but I will miss SC while I am over there. I would be much happier if they were sending me to Italy. It could definitely be worse. My coworker has to spent the month in Turkey. At least the Germans don't generally despise Anericans.

1. Endre arithmetic progression can be use as fraction index of compound and differential indexing in gear teeth cutting and will act as future computer using maglev operations in crank rotations using stepper motor technics will revolutionize CNC machines technology relevant to manufacturing technology.Thank you for the prize award which inspired me very much.
With a piezo electric technics we could be able to achieve any combinatorial outputs.
I would like to add my grain of salt to the ongoing discussion on Gowers's idea that computers may eventually replace mathematicians in some future. I don't know what computers will be in the future and they may be able to do miraculous things, as in science fiction. I love science fiction, but I do not want to discuss it here. I do not want to speculate about quantum computing either. I assume that future computers will remain Von Neuman machines for a long time to come. They will be faster, have a bigger memory and they will be programmed differently.
Experience shows that mathematical thinking is depending on the alternation of two kinds of activities. One is about developing a mental picture of the problem, an intuition of its nature. The other is about making a calculation, as in algebra or formal logic. The two activities are performed alternatively as in a dance. A calculation is guided by an intuition, and the intuition is confirmed or rejected by a calculation. Few mathematical progresses can be made by using intuitions or calculations alone. Computers are very good at computing and they can help us doing mathematics, like a pen and a piece of paper. But they have no intuition, no consciousness. They are mindless mechanical machines.
I claim that we do not understand the nature of consciousness. Of course, we are making progress in studying the brain. But artificial intelligence seems to show that the brain does not need to be conscious to perform its tasks. So why the brain should produces consciousness? Consciousness is the blind spot of modern science. This I don't agree.
Consciousness of the brain is required to find out what is correct and what is wrong to let others live in happiness, which the artificial intelligence is lacking. Mainly we live on love and affection. This includes ESP powers and intuition required. Here enters the ashtama syddhis to make things out of nothing, the consciousness that makes things to be produced attaining everything by acoustic mantras which can be injected into computer partially as an experiment. Being consciousness brings out evolution of an evolution for higher thinking and achievement to attain the tranquility and happiness which should be the ultimate goal of happiness to merge with Nature god
The Atman carry the evolutionary information afterdeath. .Any handycaps of human beings is also carried with the Atman as information. A man having a paralyzed leg as they enter into a body as a medium produces paralytic symptoms as medium entry; all these experiences can not be got by artificial intelligence.

You guys remember Veggie Tales, right? Did you know the episodes are streaming on Netflix? In fact, as I type this, Adrienne and I are watching one about Easter. There are two dancing peas accompanying a singing asparagus.
Actually, Adrienne isn't watching at all. Just me. She likes the two-minute intro (can you blame her?!) and then she loses interest and goes speeding away to go pester the dog or pull things off shelves. That's her thing.
I guess that means that singing asparagus is my thing.
I really wish the peas in this avocado mash would sing and dance, too. I'd probably sing along (like I may or may not be doing right now). I think a lot more babies would like peas if that were the case.
Fortunately, we don't have a problem liking peas over here. Especially when they are drowned in avocado. And served up on the best bread you've ever eaten.
Smashed Pea and Avocado Toast
makes 4 slices
- 1 ripe avocado
- 1/2 c peas
- 2 T plain Greek yogurt*
- 4 slices of bread, toasted
- flat leaf parsley for garnish
- salt and pepper
The first step of this recipe is to bake a loaf of bread and not eat the whole thing. Trust me, that is by far the hardest part of the process. If you make it past that step…you're golden. Then, toast whatever you managed not to eat.
Then, mash the avocado, add the peas and yogurt and mash again. Season with salt and pepper. When your bread is toasted, smear each slice with that delicious green mash and top with parsley.
*Better Whey Of Life sent me the Greek yogurt as a sample to review on my blog. It was delicious on it's own AND in this recipe!
Only the real vegetables hold her attention. I guess that's a good thing.
