Also, I find it completely ridiculous that we're shipping open source OpenGL drivers without S3TC support because of patent concerns. Today, that's like shipping a web browser without .jpg support!Why does so many people think that breaking the law is not only acceptable but mandatory? I don't understand why would you castigate others for following the law. Yes, every single patent is despicable, there's not one of them that's ethically valid but the solution can't be pushing someone else to be breaking the law for you.
Legally there's nothing stopping anyone from licensing s3tc or floating point patents, forking Mesa3D and shipping closed source version of it with code handling both.
It's simply that you can't reconcile Free Software with patents. You just can't add what amounts to arbitrary restrictions to your software and claim freedom. There's absolutely nothing we can do here. There were teams of lawyers looking at this stuff and the conclusion every single time was "you just can't get away with this". Jose and Brian spent a lot of time looking at ways of getting around it as well.
I don't even think we could claim that we're taking a moral stance because it's not us but the distributors who would get sued and would lose. Pushing others under the train just doesn't seem like a moral high ground. Plus all the "I'm not a lawyer but /* bad advice follows */" are just not helpful at all. It's only meaningful if you work for a company that distributes Mesa3D code and your lawyers decided that you'll fight this in court or you'll go around this using some technical quirk. Everything else is back seat driving, without even having the decency to get in the car.

Auto Show: 2014 New York Auto Show
2015 Hyundai Sonata: New York Auto Show
What Is It?
The 2015 Hyundai Sonata rolls into the 2014 New York Auto Show as the ambassador of this midsize sedan's seventh generation. In a segment awash with fantastic cars, the Sonata has gone from "quite OK but not a serious contender" in its fifth-generation model to "big player in the family-sedan game" by the time the sixth edition went on sale. The previous model really hammered Hyundai's stake into the ground, and the 2015 version likewise has all the right ingredients, as its looks, dynamics and equipment inventory edge ever closer to premium territory.
Hyundai calls its current design language "Fluidic Sculpture 2.0." The previous Sonata's styling was the result of Fluidic Sculpture's first wave, but similar to the 2015 Hyundai Genesis that debuted at this year's Detroit show, there's an element of trying to look a bit like Audi 1.0. That's not surprising, considering Hyundai Motor Group's design chief, Peter Schreyer, used to work for Audi.
Beneath the Sonata's skin is a more rigid body, while engineers have toiled away at reducing noise, vibration and harshness wherever possible. That includes the cabin, which has also been finessed for ergonomics. The Environmental Protection Agency classifies the 2015 Hyundai Sonata as a large car, thanks to its generous passenger and cargo accommodations.
How Much?
To be announced. As some kind of guide, the 2014 Hyundai Sonata starts at $21,450. It's a cutthroat, cut-price world out there, so the seventh-generation car probably won't veer too wildly from that price point.
Trim levels are also TBA, although we know there's an SE, Sport, Limited and Hybrid.
When Can You Get It?
Summer 2014
Add It to Your Shopping List Because...
As well as being a brand-new model, the 2015 Hyundai Sonata is about as state-of-the-art as a midsize sedan gets right now, with the kind of equipment seen in more expensive machines, such as an 8-inch color display screen, rear cross-traffic alerts, intelligent headlamps, blind spot, lane-change and lane-departure monitoring, forward-collision warning and high-end audio systems.
And don't forget Apple CarPlay, which integrates an iPhone 5 into the Sonata's infotainment system while offering eyes-free operation through voice commands.
If there's one weak aspect in past Hyundai cars, it's usually been the driving experience. The company, however, took this chassis to various challenging roads around the world in an effort to sharpen it up.
Other Cars to Consider
2014 Ford Fusion -- There are no duds in this crowd. It might even boil down to which dealer is closer. Or nicer.
2014 Honda Accord -- A best-seller and deservedly so.
2014 Kia Optima -- This current generation is demanding, and receiving, more respect from buyers and the industry.
2014 Mazda6 -- Redesigned for this year. Hits most of the right notes, although some might prefer a softer ride.
2014 Nissan Altima -- Doesn't stand out but doesn't lose out either.
2014 Toyota Camry -- Usually one of the top-selling vehicles in the United States. Comforting in its predictability.
Used Honda Accord -- Why not get a fully loaded version of a midsize king?
Used Audi A4 -- Conversely, if the upscale vibe is whetting the appetite, $25,000 could easily net a 2011 Premium Plus model.

THL Toolbox > Offline THL > Contributing to THL Offline
Contributing to THL Offline
Contributor(s): David Germano
Initially, THL editing and contribution processes were purely offline. This quickly became a major challenge. With contributors located all around the world, and a single process often involving multiple people working on different phases, offline technologies quickly generate a bewildering chaos of version conflicts (people have the same data in different versions), large amounts of data lost because it was in private hands without backing up, large amounts of staff time required for refining contributions so they are in proper form for the digital library, and other such problems. Thus from THL's founding in 2000, we have aimed at producing online interfaces for contributing, editing, and refining data. Such interfaces prevent version conflict, ensure data is properly backed up, and help enable non-technical contributors to put their data into formats that can be easily published without being delayed through the necessity of extensive staff intervention. However, there is one drawback, namely that it disenfranchises people from the communities in Tibet and the Himalayas who may not have easy access to the Internet. Thus, we are trying to produce - though this is admittedly a long term project - a system that offers offline mechanisms for contributions that can then be migrated into the online repositories. In this sense, the whole of THL's Toolbox supports this effort with its survey of tools and guidelines supporting contributors without great technical background support.
Various Methods for Getting structured Data into a THL Database
Spreadsheets have great virtues for inputting and revising data on a broad number of items. In this case, each row can represent a new instance of a feature - a monastery, polity, etc. - and each column represents a specific category of information for that feature. Since the data is all on a single page which doesn't require multiple clicks and saves, it is very efficient. When completed, the data can then uploaded into the online repository. However, there are two problems with this workflow process. Firstly, spreadsheets are great if you are just drawing upon one source of information, but if you drawing upon multiple sources, it can quickly get very messy as you struggle to record in a clear way the source of each item of information you record. Secondly, if the spreadsheet is documenting a feature which is already in, for example, the online Place Dictionary, importation can be very difficult since the spreadsheet data and online data have to synchronized with each other.
In contrast, using the online editorial interface in THL has the advantage of inputting the data directly into the repository, so that the editor him/herself synchronizes the extant and new data as they work. In addition, each piece of information can be precisely sourced in accordance with the repository's own standards. However, the significant drawback is that the Internet connection can be slow, you have to constantly save pieces of information as you input them, and you have to typically navigate back and forth between different editing components.
It may also make the most sense to input the data in a structured way within a word processing document. Then, when you are satisfied with it, you can cut and paste into the online editing interface.
In practice, while we would like to offer a one size fits all approach, even the same type of task - documenting monasteries, say - can be best done by very different workflow processes, depending on precisely the character of the tasks, and the proclivities of the person doing the task. A few scenarios are offered to help you consider the best workflow process that befits you and your task. In addition, often a given task - such as documenting monasteries or polities - may in fact consist of a multitude of subsidiary tasks, each of which requires its own workflow process.
1. Spreadsheet & Import: using an Excel or other form of spreadsheet, and then importing directly into the relevant repository. This makes the best sense when you have a lot of individual items, and a set range of discrete bits of short information you want to record about each. However, you have to make sure that the columns of your spreadsheet precisely correspond to fields of data in the repository. It is important not to combine separate pieces of information in a single spreadsheet cell. An addition thing to watch out for is sourcing. Often people will leave one column for source information, but then put multiple sources into it. It then becomes entirely unclear as to where each piece of information precisely came from. For example, which text and page number is the primary name for, vs. the secondary name? This may be fine for sloppy generic work, but is unacceptable for rigorously scholarly archives. Again, follow the principle that each column in the spreadsheet should precisely correspond to a field of information in the repository. If that is possible, you will be ok. Finally, if some types of data is very texty, and exceeds a line or two, you may find Excel a cumbersome way to input the data. In that case, you may want to Excel for most of the data, but also keep a word processing file which contains just the narrative information. The former might then be automatically imported into the repository, while the latter might be cut and paste into it.
2. Word processing & cut-and-paste: using a word processing document, and then cutting and pasting into the repository using the repository's own online interface. This makes sense especially if there is extensive descriptive data. It makes less sense if the data is highly structured for each item, and the data relatively short bits of text and numbers. The reason is that then you have a huge task of cut and paste when you are done with your data.
If you dislike spreadsheets, but are comfortable with tables in word processing programs, of course you can simple design tables following the same principles as spreadsheets - these two are easily convertible back and forth with each other.
3. Online Editing: this makes the best sense if you just have a few items to fill in, or if the editing interface feels fairly efficient to you for the type of data you have to input.
Contributing Texts
We have worked extensively on a system for creating essays and Tibetan classical texts which relies only on the mastery of a word processing program - Microsoft Word. We then convert these at THL Central into powerful XML formats, but the contributors only need to master the use of the word processing program and our guidelines for its use. Admittedly, the guidelines can be complex, but they are far easier to deal with than the purchase and mastery of XML editing programs and processes.
See Essays and Tibetan Texts for details.
Contributing Place Studies
We have created, and are still refining, offline databases for simplifying the work of created structured description of various places, communities and institutions, even as we also build new online editing mechanisms for our Gazetteer.
See Places & Geography.
Contributing Images
Initially we worked extensively with free or commercial offline image management systems that we then converted into our online formats. In 2007 we created an online image management system, and in the future hope to create an integrated offline application. In the meantime, the previous systems can still be used for offline work, even if the conversion is rather cumbersome for THL staff.
See Images.
Contributing Audio-Video
All editing and preparation of audio-video is done offline, though the cataloging is typically done online. However, it is not difficult to do the cataloging in a word processing program and have someone manually migrate it. We do not, however, at present have a structured database program for such offline work. See Audio-Video.
We are particularly proud of our work in making an easy to use a stand alone program for transcribing audio-video in Tibetan and other languages which has been used extensively offline in Tibet by students and faculty. See QuillDriver.

Atheists Don't Believe in God Because They Think They Are So Smart They Don't Need Him?
This is to a addresses a Frequently Asked Question/Frequently Offered Claim that Atheists don't believe in God because they think they are so smart they don't need him.
It may be true that some self-professed atheists equate intelligence with not believing in God, but I think a good argument can be made that this is a type of self delusion. The kind of un-belief that I experience is not something that I chose. It just happened. It happened as I started to question my beliefs instead of just taking them for granted. And as I gained more knowledge, especially about the Bible, my faith just went away. There was no choice about it. The thought of needing or not needing god never entered the equation. It was irrelevant.
In 1998 The Journal Nature reported that a larger portion of the National Academy of Sciences are unbelievers than believers. This correlates to what I experienced, and it infers that the more you know about the world, the less you believe in a God. But learning about the world is not the only thing that eroded my belief. Studying informal fallacies had a big part in it. It lead me into critical thinking, which led me into informal logic, which led me into the study of reasoning in general.
Learning how to determine the truth in a pragmatic way and applying that to my religious beliefs are what really eroded my belief. A love of truth. A desire to know the truth. A desire to know how to find the truth. A desire to make sense out of the world. A desire to be able to figure out when I am being lied to. A desire to protect myself from the wolves that Jesus said I had been thrown into the middle of. In order for a sheep to protect himself from a pack of wolves when everything happens in Gods time, he needs to be a little bit smarter than the wolves. And when I realized that I could increase my chances of a successful outcome by pre-planning and forethought, all that was left was just dumb luck and prayer. And we all know what they say about prayer, allow me to paraphrase "don't hold your breath".
While I can't speak for all atheists, the cause of my unbelief is not that I am so smart I don't need him, it is the fact that I did an honest search for the truth, and found it. To do that, I needed to find new information. Finding new information means getting smarter. I guess that sometimes when people get smarter, faith in a God just fades away.
My, my, hey, hey.
you will know the truth,
and the truth will make you free.

10 Things CIOs Must Do to Prepare for Windows 8
Windows 8 is launching on October 26, and for CIOs, its debut will offer and opportunity to refresh the technology they offer their employees in the workplace. But can their budgets handle the upgrade costs, which could include both the software and some new hardware? Do they want to spend the cash? Chances are, any upgrade won't happen immediately, since CIOs like to see an operating system with their own eyes and wait for the kinks to get worked out. But with time, many may be ready to take the leap. Realizing that, we thought it might be a good idea to discuss the many things CIOs must do to prepare for Windows 8. From prepping their current systems to ensuring that the operating system goes through ample testing before deployment, the following tips should go a long way in ensuring that your company is ready -- whenever Windows 8 is finally brought to your office.

Fall Out Boy cover "The Simpsons" Theme
Fall Out Boy have become the latest rockers to take on the iconic Simpsons theme for an episode of the animated series. You can check out FOB's metal-y version of the Simpsons theme on the FOX site now. "This is something we grew up with," guitarist Joe Trohman said in an behind-the-scenes video (watch it above). "I know for me, my sense of humor and the way I perceive humor and the way I perceive a lot of things was based on growing up and watching The Simpsons, so to be a part of this for me is legendary." Adds Patrick Stump, "[The theme] was timeless, and that was the point."
It's fitting that the band has adapted the Simpsons theme, considering the long-running series is responsible for giving the band their name. You may recall "Fallout Boy" is the sidekick of the series' in-house Arnold Schwarzenegger-esque comic book superhero, Radioactive Man, and was memorably played by a moody Milhouse in a 1995 episode of the show that featured the classic line "My eyes … the goggles do nothing!" The band's version of the theme premiered on the January 25th episode, titled "Lisa the Drama Queen."
Fall Out Boy aren't the first band to cover the Danny Elfman (Oingo Boingo) -penned theme — or guest on the show (see: Rockers on The Simpsons). Yo La Tengo performed a "psychedelic" version, while Sonic Youth's grunged-out rendition appears at the end of that episode when Homer goes to "Hullapalooza" (and Smashing Pumpkins buy fur coats). Tito Puente, NRBQ and Los Lobos have also performed the theme song. And Green Day memorably gave the song a punky edge for The Simpsons Movie.
And in less interesting news ..Fall Out Boy's cute bass player Pete Wentz and Ashley Simpson have named their child Bronx Mowgli!

Nuggets down Spurs for 21st straight home win
Denver, CO – Andre Iguodala finished with a 12-point, 13- rebound and 10-assist triple-double, and the Denver Nuggets posted their franchise-record 21st win in a row at home with a 96-86 victory over the San Antonio Spurs.
Perhaps more importantly, the win moved Denver a full game ahead of idle Memphis for the No. 3 spot in the Western Conference standings with four games to play.
The Nuggets matched the club record for wins with their 54th on the season, despite not having Ty Lawson (plantar fascia tear) for the fifth straight game. Denver received 29 points and eight rebounds from Wilson Chandler, as well as 28 points off the bench from Corey Brewer in the victory.
"We need homecourt in the first round, so we're going to get every win we can get," Brewer said.
The Spurs are now tied with Oklahoma City for the top spot in the West. Tim Duncan and Gary Neal each had 17 points in the setback.
"When you don't make shots it's pretty easy ro get fast breaks the way they did. I don't know what we were from (3-point range) but it wasn't good. When you're that bad from the 3-point line and you turn it over at the same time people make runs," Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said.
Tony Parker sat with a neck injury for the third time in four games and Manu Ginobili missed his sixth in a row with a hamstring issue.
The depleted Nuggets, who won't have Danilo Gallinari (torn ACL) for the rest of the season, simply came out flat. They fell behind 14-0 and in addition to committing seven turnovers, they shot just 21.7 percent (5-for-23) and managed only 11 first quarter points.
However, the second period produced much better results. After falling behind, 20-11, the Nuggets went on a 13-3 run to take the lead on Kenneth Faried's jumper. A layup from Andre Miller gave them a four-point edge with 3 1/2 minutes left before they took a 38-37 lead into the break.
In the third, San Antonio broke a 45-45 tie with six straight points, but Chandler scored half of the Nuggets' points during a quarter-closing 24-12 run, which sent Denver into the fourth with a 69-63 lead.
The Nuggets then blew it open in the final frame, scoring the first 13 points of the period. The Spurs missed their first seven shots and trailed by as many as 19. They cut their deficit to five with 1:33 left, but never got closer.
Game Notes
San Antonio had won nine of its last 12 meetings with Denver coming in ... The Nuggets have won 20 of their last 22 games overall ... Denver had a 21-15 edge in fastbreak points.

After being held scoreless in the first half, The College at Brockport Football team rebounded scoring 17 second-half points but it was not enough as The College of New Jersey (TCNJ) scored a touchdown with 10 minutes left in the fourth quarter to post a 26-17 victory Saturday in a New Jersey Athletic Conference (NJAC) game in Ewing, NJ.
Neither team was able to break into the end zone in the first quarter but TCNJ (4-1 Overall, 3-1 NJAC) kicked a short 20-yard field goal on the first play of the second quarter to take a 3-0 lead. On the ensuing drive, Brockport (0-5, 0-4) went for a 4th-and-1 play near midfield but were stopped short giving the ball back to the Lions. Nine plays later, TCNJ was in the end zone and held a 10-0 lead.
Brockport fumbled the ball away on the second play of the next drive to give TCNJ good field position again but the Brockport defense held TCNJ out of the end zone after three plays inside the five yard line and the Lions settled for a 21-yard field goal and a 13-0 lead with 4:50 left in the first half.
In the second half, TCNJ took the opening kickoff and marched down the field scoring on a one-yard run but the extra point kick was no good and the Lions led 19-0.
After a 30-yard kick return by freshman Darrel Flores (Central Islip, NY/Central Islip), quarterback Joe Scibilia (North Tonawanda, NY/Starpoint) guided the Brockport offense inside the 10-yard line and Alex Hendrickson (Unadilla, NY/Unatego) broke into the end zone on a four-yard carry to put the Golden Eagles on the board.
Holder Schuyler Pero (Macedon, NY/Gonanda) threw a pass to Joseph Innes (Unadilla, NY/Unatego) for the two-point conversion to cut the lead to 19-8 with 9:02 left in the third quarter.
After a short TCNJ drive that ended in a punt, Brockport took over and again Scibilia drove the team down the field with six pass completions and capped the drive with an eight-yard run. The two-point conversion pass failed and Brockport trailed 19-14 with less than three minutes remaining in the third quarter.
Brockport used a trick play to start the fourth quarter when backup quarterback Dylan Umbra (Sidney, Y/Sidney) completed a 31-yard pass to Scibilia and Brockport continued to drive down the field with a chance to take the lead. The drive stalled inside the Lion 10-yard line but a Bobby Giambra (West Seneca, NY/West Seneca East) field goal from 21 yards out trimmed the lead to 19-17 with 11:45 to play in the fourth quarter.
TCNJ took the ensuing kick and with four straight completed passes, had the ball inside the Brockport 10-yard line and scored on a six-yard run to increase the lead to 26-17.
Scibilia put together a 13-play drive on the next Brockport possession but the drive ended at the TCNJ 20-yard line with an intercepted pass with six minutes remaining in the second half.
The Lions took over and slowly moved the ball toward midfield eating up valuable time off the clock but the drive stalled at the TCNJ 46 yard line forcing the Lions to punt the ball away with less than three minutes to play. The punt return was fumbled and the Lions recovered to run out the clock and end the game with the 26-17 lead.
On the day Scibilia rushed for a team-leading 65 yards and one TD and was 28-for-41 for 232 yards through the air. Hendrickson ran for 23 yards and a TD and also caught a team-high six passes for 35 yards. Jake Spalik (Johnson City, NY/Johnson City), Andrew Mrozek (Depew, NY/Lancaster) and Jordan Hogan (Lockport, NY/Newfane) each had five catches for the Golden Eagles.
Defensively, John O'Hagan (Pearl River, NY/Pearl River) led the team with 13 tackles including eight solo stops while Maurice Brown (Brooklyn, NY/Grand Street Campus) and Alex Hayes (Phoenix, NY/John C. Birdlebough) each contributed eight tackles. Andrew McCormick (Peru, NY/Peru) had seven tackles a forced fumble and a pass break up and Kevin Schleyer (Rochester, NY/Eastridge) added seven tackles and two quarterback sacks.
Brockport returns home to face Kean University at 1 pm Saturday, October 15

A New Ad Campaign Launches for AutoTrader.com
With more new-car buyers returning to the market this year, AutoTrader wants to remind shoppers about the huge array of vehicles and research tools on its site with a new multi-media advertising campaign.
Even in the midst of the recovering economy, new-vehicle shoppers are doing more research online wanting to know more than ever they are getting the right model at the right price.
A new 30-second television commercial at the heart of the campaign portrays AutoTrader.com as the "ultimate new-car marketplace," where shoppers can compare new models and special offers. It continues some of the imagery from AutoTrader's successful "Heart and Mind" campaign that has aired over the past year using high-energy music, visuals and graphics to show how the site's shoppers can compare and review new and used vehicles. The new spot shows a man at home surfing AutoTrader.com for a new car and illustrates his internal process for to narrow his choices for a car that meets his needs and price.
AutoTrader is spending more than $25 million on the ad campaign, which will be "promoted heavily" all year, said Clark Wood, chief marketing officer at the company. He expects to rotate a used-car ad into the mix at the tail end of the year.
The auto shopping and research site offers both new and used cars, but the goal of this ad effort is to attract more new car intenders, Wood said. "As the new-car market continues its recovery and the spring-summer car-buying season heats up, we wanted to use our very memorable 'Heart & Mind' imagery to specifically highlight how AutoTrader.com can help people find the perfect new car," he said. "With more than 1 million new cars listed for sale on our site and an unrivaled suite of tools for reviewing new car inventory on dealers' lots, AutoTrader.com is one of the largest new-car marketplaces in the country."
Indeed, AutoTrader.com reported in February that it had set a new record of 17.4 million unique monthly visitors in January, breaking its prior peak of 16.8 million last May. Wood said monthly traffic has continued to hover between 17 million and 18 million unique visitors all year. "We continue to see our traffic grow."
The new TV commercial is backed by a broad media buy that includes the NBA playoffs, along with HGTV, ESPN, History Channel, USA, Lifetime and Adult Swim. In addition, there's "DVD on FX" spotlight featuring the new-car shopping process on AutoTrader.com and integrations in original programming.
Two national radio spots similar to the television ad can be heard on the ESPN, Premier, Westwood One and Dial networks.
Doner in Southfield, Michigan, has been the company's creative ad agency of record since 1999 and developed the new TV and radio spots, as well as last year's "Heart & Mind" campaign. "Doner has done great work for us," said Wood.
Online, the new campaign will be targeted at new-car shoppers across the internet via search-engine marketing and social media, as well as video sites YouTube.com, Tremor and YouMe.
AutoTrader worked with Moxie in Atlanta, Ga. and 360i in Chicago for different elements of the online push.
AutoTrader.com, founded in 1997, wants consumers to know it is the top address for new-car shoppers. "About 13 years ago, AutoTrader.com helped change the way people shopped for used cars," Wood said, "We've made similar inroads in how people shop for new cars and wanted to make sure even more people know how AutoTrader.com can bring certainty to this major purchase."

Incorporating enteral nutrition into your practice
Providing nutritional support to patients is critical because adequate caloric and nutrient intake prevents the adverse consequences of malnutrition and optimizes patient outcome. However, in a busy practice, it is easy for patients to receive suboptimal nutrition, whether because of vaguely written or absent feeding orders, anorexia, sedation from pain medications, procedures requiring the animal to be NPO, or other factors that impede adequate calorie intake.1
Inadequate intake of calories and other nutrients can be deleterious to a patient's underlying illness or injury and can negatively impact the outcome. Thus, our goals with this article are to review how to assess the nutritional needs of hospitalized animals, how to use that information to develop an individualized nutrition plan, and how to best incorporate enteral nutrition into practice.
Not only is protein an inefficient source of calories, but this loss of lean body mass also has deleterious effects on the host. While carbohydrates can be stored to a small extent as glycogen in the liver and there is a near unlimited capacity to store fat in adipose tissue, the body cannot effectively store protein. Since all of the body's protein is functional, loss of lean body mass means that the animal may be losing critical functional tissue. This loss of lean body mass during illness or injury has important clinical implications. In people, lean body mass loss has been shown to impair strength, immune function, and wound healing and to reduce overall survival.3-5 And in hospitalized dogs and cats, lower energy intake has been significantly associated with reduced survival.6 Thus, it is critical to provide adequate calories, protein, and other nutrients to ill or injured animals.
New guidelines developed by the American Animal Hospital Association and the World Small Animal Veterinary Association stress the importance of performing a nutritional assessment of every patient at each visit.7,8 (You can find these guidelines at aahanet.org/Library/NutritionalAsmt.aspx and wsava.org/V5.htm, respectively.)
A nutritional screening includes recording a patient's body weight, body condition score (BCS), muscle condition score (MCS), complete diet history, and medical conditions as well as medications the patient is receiving. If any risk factors, such as weight loss, thin body condition, muscle loss, or underlying disease are present, a more thorough diagnostic evaluation is recommended, such as laboratory testing, diagnostic imaging, and any other pertinent diagnostic tests.
BCS primarily assesses fat stores, while MCS assesses muscle. MCS is determined by visual examination and palpation over the temporal bones, scapulae, thoracic and lumbar vertebrae, and pelvic bones. It can be described as normal or can demonstrate varying degrees of atrophy (e.g. mild, moderate, marked). BCS and MCS may not be analogous, as a thin animal may have normal muscle condition and an overweight or even obese animal may have significant muscle loss. Since animals with acute and chronic disease preferentially lose muscle (lean body mass), when caloric intake is inadequate it is critical to assess both fat and muscle stores because this information can help to identify chronic disease and may modify the nutritional plan.7,8

Knights coach Wayne Bennett said fullback Darius Boyd was no certainty to play again this season after checking himself into a Sydney rehabilitation facility on Wednesday morning to treat depression.
After media reports surfaced on Tuesday night and Wednesday morning, that Boyd was being investigated for an incident in which $1500 worth of damage was done to a room in a Hunter Valley hotel he stayed at last Thursday, the Knights issued a statement on Wednesday saying Boyd had been admitted to a mental health facility seeking treatment for depression. Bennett said Boyd had only told him about that incident in a conversation on Wednesday, and believed it was unrelated to his condition.
"I'm pleased for Darius that he's recognised that he's obviously got a problem, it's a self-admission one and he's come to this conclusion himself, and he booked himself into rehab in Sydney this morning," Bennett told the media after Knights training on Wednesday. ''He's always had different little issues, but no more than I've noticed in the past. I've always had a close relationship and good communication with him, but late last week he started to talk more about it. He obviously needed help and in the end he realised that he needed to get some professional help."
Describing the Queensland and Australian star as an introvert, Bennett said Boyd's admission "explains a little bit of maybe what we see in Darius and we all try to work out what's actually going on with him".
"It's tough for anybody," Bennett said. "It's a much more sensitive issue in our society than it has been, and there's a lot more respect shown for people who have it, and I think that's a wonderful thing. It's obviously an illness most of us want to avoid if we can."
Bennett is like a father figure to Boyd, having been his only NRL coach during a 204-game career at the Broncos, Dragons and Knights. They first crossed paths when Boyd made his NRL debut under Bennett at the Broncos as an 18-year-old schoolboy in 2006. Asked if he had seen signs that Boyd was headed down this path, Bennett said: "Yes and no".
"It's like everything, whether you've got an alcohol problem or a drug problem, you've got to make the first admission yourself, and I think he's been fighting that the last few months bringing himself to that conclusion," Bennett said. "So were there absolutely certain signs, no, but had there been some signs, yes."
Bennett said Boyd had been working with counsellors "for some time" and a diagnosis of depression was "the conclusion that they've come to". Bennett would not speculate about when Boyd would be available to play again, and said there was no certainty he would play again this year.
"No idea at all. That's not our priority," he said. "To be honest with you, he's had a great love affair with football and maybe many times in his life, football's been the thing that's held him together. But right now, football's not the thing that's holding him together. It's his health and he realises that and football is secondary to everything else."
Bennett said 18-year-old rookie Sione Mata'utia would make his NRL debut replacing Boyd at fullback against Sydney Roosters at Hunter Stadium on Friday night.

BAKER � Excitement surrounded Baker School on Wednesday with the arrival of best-selling author Sharon Robinson, daughter of baseball legend Jackie Robinson.
Editor's Note: An expanded version of this article appears in the May 25 Crestview News Bulletin.
BAKER � Excitement surrounded Baker School on Wednesday with the arrival of best-selling author Sharon Robinson, daughter of baseball legend Jackie Robinson.
Robinson visited the school to meet Olivia Hurley, who won first place in Major League Baseball and Scholastic�s national Breaking Barriers essay contest.
See top-left "Related Articles" link for a copy of Olivia Hurley's prize-winning essay.
The Breaking Barriers contest required students to write about overcoming physical or emotional barriers, muck like famed baseball player Jackie Robinson had. Jackie Robinson broke the racial barrier in professional baseball when he signed with the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1947.
Olivia wrote about taking control of her unhealthy lifestyle and repairing her self-image. Her essay was one of ten submissions recognized among 18,700 entered from across the country.
�It's a great essay; she is a good writer," Robinson said. "You�re not surprised, when you meet her, that she has got spirit ... it comes through so beautifully in that essay.�
Robinson met Olivia, along with classmates in Kim Fountain's sixth-grade class, in the school's media center. Each student received a T-shirt and a signed copy of Sharon Robinson's book "Testing the Ice: A True Story About Jackie Robinson.�
Friends and family surrounded Olivia as she met Robinson, who stayed for a pep rally in the school gymnasium.
"We all have obstacles," Robinson said. "It�s not about how big the obstacle is, it�s about working the process through."
Olivia overcame her obstacle by eating nutritious food and participating in several 5K runs. She is the lone sixth-grader on the school's varsity track team.

Comcast Chairman and CEO Brian Roberts told CNBC on Wednesday that he's "bullish and optimistic" about the prospects for NBCUniversal.
Comcast announced Tuesday that it will buy the 49 percent of NBCUniversal it doesn't already own from General Electric in a deal worth $16.7 billion.
"We didn't have to do this now and we chose to do it," Roberts said in a "Squawk Box" interview. "If actions can speak louder than words, the action is we're bullish on the businesses we're buying."
Comcast has owned 51 percent of those businesses, which includes CNBC, since January 2011.
"We've seen some early signs of turnaround and payoff for some of the investments we're making," Roberts said, "whether it's in theme parks or in the cable networks or in the broadcast business or in the film business."
He added, "We are bullish and optimistic. And we felt we would have paid more later in all likelihood."
Comcast also released its earnings a day early on Tuesday. Fourth-quarter profits excluding one-time items were $0.52 a share, a penny shy of estimates. Revenue was also a tad short of expectations, coming in at $15.94 billion.
Cable Communications
Roberts said cable "had an outstanding quarter."
Revenue for cable communications increased 7 percent to $10.1 billion in the fourth quarter — fueled by growth in high-speed Internet, business services and video.
"Broadband has been the engine of growth," he said, citing a net gain of 341,000 new customers. "Better than 2011's fourth quarter," he said.
"We only lost 7,000 customers. We're not sure we're there yet for the complete going positive," he said, saying much depends on housing growth.
Putting that in perspective, Roberts said, "[It's] the ninth quarter in a row of improvements in our video losses and to the point that this quarter we would have actually stemmed the tide" if it weren't for super storm Sandy.
He added that Comcast's products and services have gotten better. "Every quarter we're chipping away at it. And there's a real positive direction."
Broadcast Television
Revenue from broadcast television increased 7.9 percent to $2 billion in the fourth quarter — driven by strong primetime ratings at the NBC broadcast network.
"We were surprised to the positive and delighted with the fall ... [but] we should be realistic that this is a multiyear initiative," Roberts said.
With NBC's biggest shows — "Sunday Night Football" and "The Voice" — ending for their seasons, he said, "we're not going to be having the same results that we had in the fall."

But milder weather is on the way, say forecasters, as they predict temperatures could rise by as much as 10C by the weekend.
Overnight up to 9cm of snow fell over some parts of southern England, the South West, the West Midlands and Wales. The thermometer plummeted to -6C in Cumbria, while the temperature failed to rise above zero across most regions.
There will be further disruption today, predict forecasters, with more snow expected in South West England South Wales.
Heathrow was forced to cancel around 40 flights while Bristol Airport suspended all flights until 5am this morning.
Around 800 schools were closed as snow continued to disrupt work and travel across the country.
It has also led to the deaths of at least nine people, including a man who is believed to have died after slipping on ice near his home in Accrington, Lancashire after a night out.
The Met Office has amber warnings in place in south west England and Wales, urging the public to take extra care against freezing temperatures, ice and snow.
Yellow warnings highlighting a risk of disruption to transport due to ice and freezing fog affect all but northern Scotland in the UK.
National Rail said all rail services would be running normally on Wednesday although some Eurostar services are still affected by the poor weather conditions.
Police said that James Hurst, 54, fell over after he had been dropped off by taxi following an evening at a local pub on Saturday.
Neighbours saw his body lying near a doorstep close to his address in Worsley Street at about 8am the next day.
Police confirmed Mr Hurst suffered a head injury which they were treating as an accident.
Devon and Cornwall Police are investigating whether a fatal crash yesterday morning may have occurred because of icy conditions.
Police confirmed that a 42-year-old local man died following the two-vehicle collision on the A38 Parkway in Plymouth – one of the region's busiest roads – shortly before 6am.
It resulted in the road being closed for 10 hours.
Forecasters warned of further disruption as a light coating of snow is expected to fall across South West England and South Wales.
Nick Prebble, a forecaster for MeteoGroup, the weather division of the Press Association, said: "There will more disruption to come today no doubt with reports that up to 9cms (3.5in) have already fallen in Hampshire and around seven in the Midlands, Hereford, Worcestershire and Gloucestershire.
"The snow will ease through the day for most areas, but with a further 3cms (1.2in) expected later in the day for south Wales and parts of south-west England."
However, by Saturday a band of wet and windy weather will come in from the West, bringing midler conditions.
Temperatures could climb up to 8 or 9C in the South by Sunday, forecasters predicted.
Tributes were paid yesterday to postman John Bircham, who collapsed as he approached the end of his deliveries in and around the Somerset down of Dulverton on Saturday.
He had been a postman since the late 1980s.
It is understood that the 57-year-old father of two was towed out of a snowdrift by a farmer before collapsing soon afterwards.
A woman found dead in a garden early on Sunday is believed to have collapsed in the snow after a night out.
Bernadette Lee, 25, was discovered in the front garden of the house next to her sister's by a man walking his dog in Church Meadows, Deal, Kent, at 7.30am.
Kent Police are investigating the cause of death but there have been reports that she had no visible injuries and was found without a coat.
A man was killed in another weather-related incident when the car he was driving left the road and crashed into a tree on the A12 in Essex on Sunday evening.
It came after four people died in an avalanche as they descended Bidean Nam Bian in Glencoe in the Scottish Highlands on Saturday afternoon. A further two people survived.
Elsewhere, teenager Liam Stafford, 16, remains critically ill in hospital after hitting a tree while sledging in Flatts Lane Country Park, Normanby, Middlesbrough, on Sunday afternoon.

Crews Install 2nd Of 9 Asian Carp Barriers
COON RAPIDS (AP) - Construction crews are trying to stay ahead of the icy, cold winter weather as they work to install five gates at the Coon Rapids dam before the end of the year.
The steel gates are part of a $16 million improvement project aimed at preventing Asian carp from leaping over the dam and reaching the upper Mississippi River watershed.
On Monday two huge cranes lifted and slid into place the second of nine gates to be installed at the dam.
The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources says a dead silver carp was recently found at a dam north of Winona, the furthest upstream the fish has been discovered in the Mississippi River.

The Houston Dynamo shored up their back line on Monday by swinging a deal with the Portland Timbers to acquire Jordan Graye.
In exchange for Graye, the Dynamo sent their natural fourth-round pick in the 2014 MLS SuperDraft to the Timbers. The Timbers had selected Graye from D.C. United in the MLS Expansion Draft last month.
Graye, 23, completed his first professional season in 2010 with hometown club United, making 20 starts and playing 1,662 minutes in MLS play, fourth on the team. Graye can play either outside back position.
"Jordan is a promising young defender who is known for being a good athlete," Dynamo head coach Dominic Kinnear said in a statement. "He was pretty unheralded but played a lot of games for DC last year. I'm looking forward to having him in Houston and helping him continue to grow as a player."
Graye played in the D.C. United Academy while in high school but was drafted by the club after five years at the University of North Carolina. After seeing minimal college action in his first two seasons, one of which he redshirted, Graye saw increased playing time in 2007 and became a regular starter on squads that reached the NCAA College Cup in 2008 and 2009. He was selected by D.C. United in the fourth round of last year's MLS SuperDraft.
"I'm glad to come to Houston, and I already know some people on the team like Corey Ashe and Tyler Deric from UNC," Graye said. "They seem to enjoy playing for Houston, and I hear good things about the coaches, so I'm looking forward to getting a chance to play."

The Frenchman was celebrating his side's win over Borussia Dortmund until the early hours and had the European Cup alongside his wife in bedBayern Munich winger Franck Ribery has revealed that he took the Champions League trophy to bed with him following his side's 2-1 final triumph over Borussia Dortmund.
The Bundesliga giants have reached the showpiece of the competition three times in the last four years but sealed their first European Cup since 2001 with victory over their rivals at Wembley on Saturday.
And Ribery revelled in his side's post-match celebrations into the early hours and ultimately took the cup home with him.
"I was up until five or six in the morning," he told Sky Sports News.
"I went to bed just before six and took the trophy with me. I had the trophy and my wife in bed with me last night."
Arjen Robben's late winner was enough to see off Dortmund, which had cancelled out Mario Mandzukic's opener with an Ilkay Gundogan penalty.
Bayern has the chance to complete its first-ever treble with a win over Stuttgart in the DFB-Pokal final on June 1.

4 possible freak election outcomes
Could the 2012 campaign end in a tie? Is it possible for Mitt Romney to end up as president — with Joe Biden as his vice president? Could the presidential election end up decided by the U.S. Supreme Court, again?
The short answer is: probably not. To call those outcomes improbable would be a huge understatement. The strong likelihood is that one candidate will win both the Electoral College and the popular vote on Nov. 6 and bring our long 2012 slog to an end.
Story Continued Below
But hey, it's the end of October in a presidential election year — a hurricane is improbably threatening the Eastern seaboard — so it's the time when a politico's mind turns to the wild and crazy outcomes that could upend all expectations. And public polls still show a close enough race between Romney and Barack Obama that speculation is inevitable.
Here's POLITICO's guide to the freak outcomes that could send us reeling on election night:
A popular vote-Electoral College split
Of all the quirky results, this one is probably the most plausible. There's a pretty straightforward set of events that leads to the popular vote and the Electoral College breaking in different directions — almost certainly to the benefit of President Barack Obama.
According to the best guesswork of strategists and pollsters on both sides, the scenario unfolds like this: Romney runs up huge vote margins in the South, Obama wins big blue states like New York and California by reduced margins, the swing states all end up very close, but Obama holds on to Ohio, Wisconsin and Nevada and blocks Romney from winning 270 electoral votes. In that scenario, Romney could take the popular vote by running up the score in heavily Republican states, while Obama amasses the electoral votes he needs for victory by eking out swing-state wins.
For Democrats, there might be a certain karmic justice in that result — payback for the 2000 election that saw Al Gore go down to defeat in the Electoral College despite winning the popular vote.
Public Policy Polling's Tom Jensen laid out the math like so: "Romney wins the popular vote with an 8-point swing from 2008. But an 8-point swing from 2008 would still leave Obama as the winner in key swing states like Colorado, Wisconsin, Nevada, New Hampshire and Iowa."

Mihai Pavel needed a new web page design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 59 designs submitted by 13 freelance designers.
Hello, we are trying to launch our software portal (www.softonym.com
– Synonym to Software) in January 2011 .
Our site will make the search for software a very easy and quick job.
Everyone who looks for :
- downloading software
- software reviews
- News
- How to
- Question & Answers
- People with similar interests ( Community)
should find quality content, latest updated software and very active comunnity providing user generated and unique content. Our aim is to develop a Web 2.0 portal and design approaches should follow this criteria.
We mainly target young people who are very active online and on social networks (age 18-40) who like to use laptops and phones very often and who like to use the web to exchange ideas, how-to, audio and video content
The site should be "user-friendly" meaning that users should find information without wasting a lot of time. Since the site will have a large amount of information changing many times per day, it is necessary design should be very well structured and organised so the user can get familiar with site features and browsing very quickly. The user should not feel lost browsing the site. We would that the audience find our site a reliable source of information, a trustworthy source for downloading software.
Background should be white or a very light gray nuance or similar that will not make user's eyes tired easily
Please do not use a wide range of colors for different items of the site. Simplicity but good taste is essential
Our graphical identity is not yet defined, we don't have a logo yet or other graphical elements. However, we intend to extend cooperation in future with winner of the contest for designing the other visual elements. We welcome suggestions matching the design for these elements (logo, avatars and ranking for users)
Fonts should be recongnized by all browers installed on different machines, including mobile devices. Fonts should follow the simplicity of design mentioned earlier.
We would like to offer to our users a wide variety of interaction with social networks, please consider adequate space for social networks buttons
A more detailed brief can be found as attachment in uploaded files
Home Page
This is the first page user will see and it should be simple, clean and intuitive to allow the user to make a quick decision. The main focus of the page is the "Big Search Box" in the middle. The other features on the page should be a lot more smaller. Logo should be exactly under the "Big Search Box".
Category Page
The page should have a horizontal bar at the top, with Softonym logo and slogan, Categories Tabs, the search box and user login. We would like to use a layout similar to Softonic.com with three vertical columns
Software review and download page
This page is similar to second page but it should be formatted on two columns with focus on software details, rating, screenshot which is the first area of the page. For easy navigation the details of the software should be structured on tabs .
Questions & Answers and User Page
For these pages we may suggest only similar sites :
answers.com ,makeuseof.com , wikihow.com ,expert-exchange.com
Finding an unique and innovative design for a Q&A community should be the thing that should differentiate us from similar sites. Therefore, this will the keypoint for awarding in this contest.
Remember : First page (Big Search Box) and community area of the site are our bid for succes!
The domain an webpage (http://www.softonym.com) is active but we want to have a 100% change of design and technical features. Nothing will be kept.
softonic.com, download.com(cnet), brothersoft.com(which is in our opinion too graphically loaded)

Project Description
Researchers at the Colorado School of Mines have developed a comprehensive simulation tool for analyzing and modeling the coupled physical, chemical, thermal, and geomechanical processes involved in CO2 flow, storage, migration, and mineralization during long-term geologic carbon storage in saline aquifers. The simulator models the complex geology of these formations, including heterogeneity, anisotropy, fractures, and faults. The simulator also models geochemical and geomechanical processes that would occur during geologic storage of CO2. It uses parallel computation methods to allow rapid and efficient modeling assessment of CO2 injection strategies and long-term prediction of geologic storage system behavior and safety. Small-scale test experiments were used to identify the fundamental processes in homogeneous systems and test the ability of the macroscopic-scale models to capture the capillary and dissolution trapping processes in the presence of pore-scale heterogeneities. Overall, the model simulations support the evaluation of geologic storage mechanisms as a viable technique for reducing atmospheric CO2 emissions.
Project Benefits
This project focuses on development of an improved reservoir simulator to quantitatively model and assess impacts of non-isothermal, multiphase flow and long term behavior of CO2 in saline formations. Improved reservoir simulation allows project developers to more confidently predict storage capacity, ensure that the storage formation is being efficiently utilized, and verify that the CO2 is permanently stored. This effort helps to assure that CO2 emissions to the atmosphere are reduced. Specifically, this project developed a parallelized, coupled, multiphase flow and geochemical processes code for CO2-brine systems.

Does Florida need the Voting Rights Act? The experts are divided
As a skeptical U.S. Supreme Court raised doubts about a central provision of the federal Voting Rights Act on Wednesday, the law's defenders said the 2012 election provided a vivid example for why it was needed to protect Florida from voter suppression.
"Look at the performance of our governor and Legislature in the last election,'' says Howard Simon, executive director of the ACLU of Florida whose parent organization has joined in the lawsuit to retain the law. "They are walking advertisements for why we need the Voting Rights Act."
After the Legislature passed a sweeping elections bill in 2011, the act's provisions required the state to get federal approval from either a federal trial court or the Justice Department before the law could take effect in Monroe, Hillsborough, Hardee, Hendry and Collier counties.
In addition to seeking the review, Gov. Rick Scott and Attorney General Pam Bondi challenged the act's constitutionality. Former Secretary of State Kurt Browning called the provisions of the act an "arbitrary and irrational coverage formula based on data from 40 years ago that takes no account of current conditions."
The five Florida counties have been subject to the pre-clearance requirement of Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act protections since 1975 because of a history of discrimination against language minorities. Monroe County, for example, failed to print ballots in Spanish even though the Spanish-speaking population was large enough to warrant its own ballot. Story here.

By 1837 there were 89 local anti-slavery societies in Vermont with over 5,000 members. Bennington's anti-slavery society was founded in 1837 with 140 members. The Lincoln-Starksboro society had 485 members--among these members were many Quakers. One of the most famous Quaker abolitionists was Lucretia Mott. Lucretia Mott was born in Nantucket, Massachusetts, and spoke throughout the United States and England --her most well-known speech is "I Am No Advocate of Passivity" given in 1860 to the Pennsylvania Anti-Slavery Society.
African Americans also belonged to the anti-slavery societies. At the annual meeting of the Chittenden County Anti-Slavery Society in 1840 a Mr. Miller spoke to the "coloured persons present" encouraging them to live down the "prejudice existing in the community against them."
While the Vermont Legislature routinely passed resolutions against slavery and while there were many local anti-slavery societies, that did not mean that Vermont was free from prejudice against blacks. Frederick Douglass tells of his African-American friend Daniel O'Connell's experiences while on a lecture tour in Vermont:
Once when O'Connell was "traveling to Vermont, and having arrived at a stage[coach], they took in five new passengers. It being dark at the time, they did not know the colour of his [O'Connell's] skin, and he was treated with all manner of respect. In fact he could not help thinking at the time that he would be a great man if perpetual darkness would only take the place of day. Scarcely however had the light gilded the green mountains of Vermont than he saw one of the chaps in the coach take a sly peep at him, and whisper to another "Egad after all 'tis a nigger." He had black looks for the remainder of the way, and disrespect."

Peter Shelton (American, b. Troy, Ohio, 1951)
bulgebone, 1990-93
Signed and dated on mount1
Lead, fiberglass, and polyester resin, with iron brace mount
65 x 4-15 x 26 3/4 in. (165.1 x 10.2 - 38.1 x 68 cm)
Roush Fund for Contemporary Art and gift of John N. Stern (OC 1939) in honor of the artist's parents, David and Mary McCullough Shelton (OC 1937/1936), and in memory of their good friend, Robert S. Hunt (OC 1939), 1993
bulgebone is a sculpture at once clear and elegant in form, yet absurd and unsettling in the associations it provokes. Its combination of a thin tube and a bulging, protruding vessel conjure up the workings of both organic matter and mechanical object.
The artist has wrapped a lead armature around a translucent fiberglass skin, creating a form that seems both hard and soft, abstract yet alive with bodily reference. The sculpture's mount is invisible, and bulgebone seems suspended in air, with only its drawn-out shadow attached to the wall. As it dangles and juts like a severed organ, the sculpture addresses the viewer as one body to another: as a tactile, compact, and unitary thing, yet also an "inside" that has been bound and encased. Like bulgebone's forms and installation, its playful title places the abstract sculpture in a realm of sensory and linguistic parody and likeness.
bulgebone is one of Shelton's several lead and fiberglass works of 1990-93, all of which (like much of his sculpture in other media) conjure up slightly dysfunctional organs and/or machine parts; compare, for example, u-bone with drain (1990-92), or whitebagbone (1992-93).2 The lead and fiberglass pieces from Shelton's "bone" series are one manifestation of his focus on conduit and tube forms, highly abstracted elements that reflect "a pneumatic or hydraulic vessel, a collector or condenser, a passage in its different scales, a 'tube' that you pass through, a tunnel, a hallway, a pipe. You could think of them in terms of a circulation system."3
A. Kurlander
Work reproduced with permission of Peter Shelton
Born in 1951, Peter Shelton received a B.A. from Pomona College, in Claremont, California, in 1973. He worked as a welder in Ohio and Michigan before moving to Los Angeles in late 1974. He received an M.F.A. from the University of California at Los Angeles in 1979. Shelton's sculptural work spans a wide range of forms and concerns, from the environmental works and site-based installations of the 1970s and '80s to the individual pieces and complex bronze castings of the '90s. His art alternately explores both figuration and abstraction; his sculptural language expresses his interest in architectural structures and in shapes that reflect the human body. Throughout, there is an abiding material concern for craft, technique, and formal nuance.

Technical Data
The sculpture was fabricated by shaping a form from thin lead rods (approximately 0.5 cm in diameter) and then inserting fiberglass cloth into the lead armature. The fiberglass was probably inserted in sections, though it is not clear how many. A polyester resin was then applied throughout the interior and exterior of the sculpture. On the fiberglass exterior, the resin has an even, matte surface, which was probably achieved through sanding or sandblasting.
The work also includes a separate iron alloy brace which is used to install the sculpture onto the wall. The brace is attached to one side of the bulbous end of the sculpture with large Phillips machine screws and iron-alloy fender washers. The brace contains the artist's signature and instructions for mounting (see exact inscriptions in note 1). The signature and mounting instructions have been coated with a transparent varnish.
The work is in excellent condition, despite small losses of polyester resin from the lead armature (both exterior and interior), and slight rusting on the iron mounting brace.

Brief SummaryRead full entry
DescriptionThe puffin is one of our most well-loved and easily recognised birds. It has a comical appearance, with its parrot-like, large colourful bill, red and black markings around the eyes (3), large pale cheek patches and bright orange legs (2). Young puffins lack the large colourful beak (2). In winter, adults lose their bright bill, and both adults and young have dark cheeks (3). A deep 'arrr-uh' noise is produced, which can be heard emanating from puffin burrows (2).

Panthers-Avalanche PreviewNHL.com @NHL
The Colorado Avalanche aren't accustomed to being on the outskirts of the playoff race. That's the only place the Florida Panthers have ended up the last seven seasons.
In danger of matching their longest home losing streak of the season, the Avalanche face the Panthers on Tuesday night in the teams' first meeting in three years.
Colorado (25-24-4) is eight points behind Vancouver and Minnesota, who are tied for seventh place in the Western Conference. The Avalanche have made the playoffs 11 straight seasons.
Colorado has lost the first two contests on a four-game homestand - both to teams ahead of it in the standings.
"This was reminiscent of a lot of points we've left on the table earlier in the year," coach Joel Quenneville said after a 3-2 defeat to Edmonton on Saturday.
A loss Tuesday would give the Avalanche three straight at home for the second time this season. They dropped three in a row at the Pepsi Center from Nov. 7-15.
If the Avalanche miss the playoffs, it would be the first time since 1993-94, when they were the Quebec Nordiques.
The Panthers, meanwhile, haven't made the postseason since 1999-00, and are nine points behind Carolina for the eighth playoff spot in the East. They're also coming off the worst home loss in franchise history, 7-0 to Los Angeles on Saturday.
"I still can't believe this happens - it is hard to even think about the playoffs after we play like this," captain Olli Jokinen said.
Due to the lockout, Colorado will be facing Florida (20-24-10) for the first time since a 6-5 road win Jan. 21, 2004. The teams haven't met in Denver since Jan. 2, 2003, when the Panthers won 4-1.
The Avalanche are 14-5-3 all-time against the Panthers.
"It's critical, but we do not need to panic," said Colorado goaltender Peter Budaj, who has started 15 of the team's last 16 games.
The Avalanche's Karlis Skrastins will tie an NHL record for consecutive games by a defenseman Tuesday by playing in his 486th in a row. Skrastins, who hasn't missed a regular season game in nearly seven years, will match Hall of Famer Tim Horton.
"He's a guy that really flies under the radar in terms of the attention he gets, but our team is very much aware of the contributions he makes each and every game," Quenneville told the team's Web site. "Whether it's blocking shots, killing penalties or just being in the right place all the time, he's very reliable, steady and consistent in the way he goes about his game. As a coach, you love to have a guy like that."
The Panthers were shut out for the second time in a week and seventh time this season Saturday. It marked the 11th time they've given up five or more goals.
Panthers goalie Ed Belfour was replaced by Alex Auld with Florida trailing 3-0 and 5:59 left in the first period. Belfour gave up five goals in a loss to the Avalanche on Jan. 17, 2006, while with Toronto.
Belfour is 11-12-0 with five ties and a 2.40 goals-against average against the Colorado franchise.
Florida defenseman Martin Lojek made his NHL debut Saturday by filling in for Mike Van Ryn (hand). Lojek was recalled from Rochester of the AHL on Saturday.
Van Ryn's status for Tuesday is uncertain.
Florida will play four of its next five on the road, where it is 1-4-2 since Dec. 26.
