[Edit - 02 Feb 09 - 22:30 CET] updated version 1.0c with bug fixed concerning the stability of scaling and tapering with negative scales (thanks to Daniel S. for signaling).
[Edit - 28 Jan 09 - 23:30 CET] Refresh with translation to Spanish provided by Pichuneke, and support of Construction Points.
Also, please make sure you download again LibFredo6 3.0a, same date and time, which contains a number of fixes.
See http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=16020#p124684
FredoScale is a variant of the native Sketchup Scale tool, but with free orientation of the scaling box. I also derived Taper Scale, which uses a scaling box to perform tapering of the selection by scaling only one of its faces.
I made a short video (English / French) to show the main concepts.
There are a few additional features.
- can scale single edges (or aligned edges)
- mode "Scale To Target" to drive scaling by matching 2 points
- drive scaling by entering the dimensions of the scaling box
- wireframe preview (easier to use inference, when dragging the scaling handles)
- selection of several entities in implicit selection mode (via Ctrl key)
- you can control the display of icons, and the location of the menu (by default, it installs in Tools > Fredo6 Collection.
The goal was also for me to release the first consolidated version of a shared library, LibFredo6, which I should use for other plugins (it used to be called LibTraductor in earlier times).
The plugin is translated to English and French (but the doc is only in English). It is now possible for generous contributors to make the translation in other languages and share it with the Community.
REQUIREMENT: You must download and install LibFredo6 version 3.0. See this post for the zip file and the instructions. It should install a small file LibFredo6.rb and a subfolder LIBFREDO6_Dir_30.
see this post http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=16020&p=124684#p124684
INSTALLATION of FredoScale:. Unzip (with Select All) the attached file FreeScale_10.zip. It should install a small file ZLoader__FreeScale.rb and a subfolder FREESCALE_Dir_10.
WARNING for Mac Users: FredoScale and LibFredo6 use Web Dialog Boxes, which have known problems on Mac platforms. As I don't have a Mac myself, I cannot guarantee this works fine. This only concerns the dialog boxes for setting the default parameters and language translation however.
Note for icon designers: if you wish to design alternate icons and cursors, just follow the naming convention (FSC…), respecting the hot spot for cursors, and then pack them in a folder with the naming IMAGES_xxxx, which can then be dropped into the FREESCALE_Dir_10 directory. Finally, go the Default Parameters… dialog box and set it as an alternate icon folder.

Tate Modern blacks out for Olafur Eliasson's "Little Sun", a solar-powered lamp

Tate Modern blacks out for Olafur Eliasson's "Little Sun", a solar-powered lamp
Olafur Eliasson with Little Sun. Photo: Tomas Gislason, 2012.
As part of Olafur Eliasson: Little Sun at
Tate Modern
, launched on 28 July 2012, visitors will be invited to look at works of art in the dark using only the light of Eliassons Little Sun solar-powered lamps. The presentation at Tate Modern has been developed for the London 2012 Festival that runs across the UK until 9 September 2012.
Olafur Eliasson is probably best-known for his highly successful The weather project (2003), part of the Unilever Series in Tate Moderns Turbine Hall, which drew over 2 million visitors during its five-month installation.
The artist has developed the Little Sun solar-powered lamp with the engineer Frederik Ottesen to focus attention on the power of solar light to improve lives. Around 1.6 billion people worldwide live without access to mains electricity. Many of them rely on kerosene lanterns for lighting, which is both expensive and a health hazard. Little Sun brings light to people in off-grid locations, enabling them to work, reduce household expenses and improve the quality of life.
Starting on 28 July, people will be invited to participate in Tate Blackouts on Saturday nights, after ordinary museum hours. For two hours, lights will go off in the former power station. Visitors can look at the works of art in the suite of galleries devoted to Tate Moderns Surrealist collection using only the light of Little Sun lamps. This echoes the 1938 International Surrealist Exhibition at the Galérie des Beaux-Arts, Paris, where Man Ray (as Master of Light) supplied the visitors with torches to explore the labyrinthine galleries.
Beyond the Tate Blackout events, Olafur Eliasson: Little Sun will feature in a space on the third floor of the gallery from 28 July to 23 September, where visitors can learn about solar power, the global energy challenge, light and its importance in and for life. It will also include a special set-up for people to do light graffiti using the Little Sun and offer the opportunity to buy a lamp for £16.50 (22). In off-grid areas the price will be about half that.
Little Sun produces 5 hours of light when it is charged in the sun for 5 hours. It facilitates the creation of small businesses to sell the lamp and, by concentrating profits at the point of need, it aims to promote economic growth in regions of the world where electricity is not available, reliable, affordable, or sustainable. Little Sun is light for studying, sharing, cooking, and earning. It is light for life.
Little Sun events in September will include a seminar and the premiere of 16 short films on light, life, and Little Sun by filmmakers from off-grid areas around the world.
Olafur Eliasson said: Over the years, I have been absorbed by phenomena such as light, time, the negotiation of space, compassion and the relation between body, mind, and action. Little Sun brings these different strands of my work together this is a very important step for me. By bringing Little Sun to Tate Modern and the London Olympics, I hope to realise an art project for those who typically have no access to global events of this scale.
Nicholas Serota, Director, Tate said: Olafur Eliasson is an artist whose work has always sought to bring new technologies to the service of art. In the Little Sun project, he has made a beautiful object with an immense social and economic value, which has the potential to change lives in off-grid areas of the world. Tate Modern, which hosted his Weather project, is the natural place to launch this new venture.
Ruth Mackenzie, Director Cultural Olympiad and London 2012 Festival I hope that some of our Festival experience will live with you forever and I believe that Olafur Eliassons Little Sun commission fits into that category. The artist who drew vast crowds to Tate Modern with his Weather Project has come up with another kind of sun to help people across the world in non-grid areas. This is a wonderful example of how the Olympic spirit and Olympic values can inspire artists as well as athletes.
Olafur Eliasson (IS/DK), born 1967, describes his works as experimental setups, span photography, installation, sculpture, and film. Around 55 craftsmen, artists, architects, and art historians work in his Berlin studio.
The 2007 SFMOMA exhibition Take your time: Olafur Eliasson travelled until 2010. Innen Stadt Aussen (Inner City Out), 2010, and Seu corpo da obra (Your body of work), 2011, involved interventions across the cities of Berlin and São Paulo in addition to works in museums.
Projects in public space include Green river, realised in various cities between 1998 and 2001; the Serpentine Gallery Pavilion 2007, London, with Kjetil Thorsen; and The New York City Waterfalls, 2008. Recent architectural works are Your rainbow panorama, for ARoS Aarhus Kunstmuseum, and Harpa Reykjavik Concert Hall and Conference Centre, with Henning Larsen Architects.
As a professor at the Berlin University of the Arts, Olafur Eliasson has run the Institut für Raumexperimente (Institute for Spatial Experiments), an innovative model for arts education, since April 2009.

Palin thinks Constitution protects her from media criticism
Posted November 1st, 2008 by sarahpalinfacts
No one would ever accuse Sarah Palin of being a Constitutional genius. After all, she thinks the Constitution gives the VP power to rule the Senate. Her latest display of stunning ignorance came during an interview yesterday with conservative talk radio show WMAL-AM. Palin said her First Amendment rights are threatened by reports who suggest she is engaging in a negative campaign against Obama:
Top McCain Supporter Says Palin NOT Ready to Lead
Posted October 31st, 2008 by sarahpalinfacts

McCain's newest guilt-by-association game
Posted October 29th, 2008 by sarahpalinfacts
Poor, pathetic John McCain is desperately trying to conjure up a new guilt-by-association game with less than one week until Election Day. During a radio interview this morning in Florida, McCain fantasized about an absurd tie between Barack Obama and Palestinian-American activist Rashid Khalidi in an attempt to sway the Jewish vote. Khalidi at some point in his life may or may not have attended an event with - you guessed it - Bill Ayers.
McCain adviser admits their health care plan is ailing!
Posted October 28th, 2008 by sarahpalinfacts
Today McCain's senior economic policy adviser, Douglas Holtz-Eakin, all but admitted the campaign's health care plan is a sham. During an interview on CNN, Holtz-Eakin discussed whether younger, healthier workers would be likely to abandon their company-sponsored health care plans and spend McCain's health care tax credit to buy insurance on the free market. He said:
Corruption runs rampant in Alaska politics
Posted October 28th, 2008 by sarahpalinfacts
Less than two weeks after Sarah Palin was found guilty of violating a state ethics law in the Troopergate scandal, Senator Ted Stevens (R, Alaska) was found guilty yesterday of seven counts of corruption. This morning, John McCain called for Stevens to step down from the Senate. Stevens said that not only does he NOT intend to resign, but he is also going to continue his current campaign for re-election.
McCain's latest "tax and spend" attack doesn't jive
Posted October 27th, 2008 by sarahpalinfacts
Today in Cleveland, Ohio, McCain was peddling his latest in a long line of failed campaign tactics. He is now proclaiming that Obama is a tax-and-spend liberal and the country can't survive if the Democrats control the White House, Senate and Congress.Although facts don't matter to McCain, they do matter to most of the rest of us. The fact is the "tax and spend" label the Republicans have hung on the shoulders of Democrats for more than 60 years is a myth of their own creation. Here are the facts:

I figured out how to make these things on my own - no one taught me jewelry making.
What advice would you give someone starting this project?
Be creative. It doesn't have to look like anything you've ever seen before.

I was pretty excited about the vibe webinar series until I noticed you were using gotomeeting.
Gotomeeting excludes access using our primary platform, which is of course linux.
There are a number of other webinar formats that do not exclude any platforms.

In his monthly report to the Parish Council on Tuesday, Cormier said events have conspired to lessen the effect of the worst flood since 1973 if not 1929.
For one thing, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is revising downward the maximum heights expected on the Atchafalaya River -- from 29 feet to 27 feet at Butte La Rose and from 13 feet to 11 feet at Morgan City.
And the gush of water expected from the open gates at Morganza has yet to arrive.
"We were expecting a significant rise in 36 hours (of the Saturday opening)," he said. "We are now past 72 hours and while the river is certainly high, it is not as bad as we anticipated."
Factors that could have mitigated the flooding in the Atchafalaya Basin include a northerly wind, which hastens the diversion of Mississippi floodwater through the Bonne Carre Spillway into Lake Ponchartrain, and the fact that Louisiana is in a drought.
"I'm not saying the water's not coming, but I think some of it was soaked up by the dry ground," said Cormier, who has been shuttling over 100 miles daily between Butte La Rose and the Stephensville-Belle River area, the two settled areas in St. Martin's flood alley.
Cormier praised Coach Carroll Delahoussaye, whose District 1 includes lower St. Martin, for his leadership and active participation in helping that flood-prone area prepare for this historic event. Delahoussaye turned his heartfelt praise back at the parish workers and the St. Martin Sheriff's Office for their tireless efforts in securing life and property in that remort part of the parish.
Parish Council Chairman Dean Dore extended his kudos to the other members and other citizens who have been supportive of the two members most affected, Delahoussaye and Lloyd "Red" Higginbotham.
Cormier said a temporary dam hastily constructed to prevent backwater flooding in the Stephensville area might turn into a permanent solution to that area's persistent flooding problems.
"We're hoping the Corps will let us keep some of that infrastructure in place so that we can use it during the annual spring floods," he said.
Between Butte La Rose, Belle River and Stephensville, citizens and parish workers have placed 450,000 sandbags, Cormier said.

nytheatre.com review by Julie Congress
November 19, 2009
Within the first minute of Ragtime, my companion and I were both in tears. I was overwhelmed by the magnitude of it all—the giant skeletal set, the 40 actors in period costumes all singing at once—it is epic, huge, and exciting, and a musical of a scale and scope I haven't seen in a very long time. When Houdini appeared from the top of the proscenium, floating upside down from the rafters in a straitjacket, I couldn't hold it in anymore. Broadway can be magical, and Ragtime is awe-inspiring and beautiful, particularly the opening and closing numbers.
Ragtime, adapted by Terrence McNally from E.L. Doctorow's novel, is a sprawling story of different groups of people gradually intertwining as they live through the hope, excitement, and potential of the beginning of the 1900s. We follow four types of people—whites, blacks, immigrants, and historical figures (such as Booker T. Washington, J.P. Morgan, and Henry Ford). The show begins with each of the key characters introducing themselves (in the third person) through song. Mother, Father, The Little Boy, Mother's Younger Brother, and Grandfather are a Wasp family in New Rochelle. Cut to the Tempo Club in Harlem: Coalhouse Walker Jr. is a ragtime musician and Sarah is his lover, until she suddenly leaves him and his philandering ways. Next we're in the Lower East Side, where Tateh, a recent Jewish immigrant, is barely making ends meet selling silhouettes as he tries to support his Little Girl.
Worlds collide when one day Mother is in the garden and finds an abandoned baby. The police bring in Sarah, who has discarded her child. Father is on a yearlong expedition with Admiral Peary, and Mother decides to take Sarah and her baby in. Soon after, Coalhouse Walker Jr., the proud owner of a new Ford, finds where Sarah is staying and comes by every Sunday in an attempt to woo her back, all the while introducing the New Rochelle family to ragtime and the new era.
Marcia Milgrom Dodge does a beautiful job directing and choreographing Ragtime. Early on, when we are being introduced to the different groups of people, she has them all doing essentially the same dance but with just enough of a flair to highlight the cultural differences. The Wasps are rigid, bouncing up and down. The African Americans are smooth and loose with their bodies. The Jewish immigrants have their hands above their heads. It is one of the most poignant depictions of integration and assimilation I have seen—how can we find the way to dance the same dance together, but maintain our heritage. Exiting the theatre, I saw another audience member illustrating this to his companion. Dodge's stagings of the songs are incredibly strong. Not only are the group numbers staggeringly exciting, but the more intimate numbers are created with simplicity and honesty. In one number, Mother and Tateh are in Atlantic City, watching their unseen children play on the beach. There is little movement during the song "Our Children" but then both actors reach out as if their child has gone too far, both realize it was unnecessary, then realize they had done it simultaneously, then resume their composition. It is subtle and beautiful, and terrifically performed by Christiane Noll and Robert Petkoff. Bobby Steggert also gives a heartbreakingly endearing and honest performance as Mother's Younger Brother, a passionate young man trying to find his calling in the world. He goes from being smitten with a vaudeville actress to being willing to lay down his life for workers' rights and later black equality.
Derek McLane's scenic design is massive and skeletal. We are in the age of early industry. Even Coalhouse's piano is a skeletal piano frame that actor Quentin Earl Darrington is able to spin across the stage in a dizzying flurry of the new music. Donald Holder's lighting design is dramatic and colorful. In one scene, we are back in Atlantic City. It wasn't until after the show that I realized that I knew that solely because of how the lighting had shifted, though in my mind the set had changed. The only challenging technical aspect is the amplification. The singing sounded very distant and you couldn't feel the vibrations of the song. It was more like listening to a recording than being in the same room with 40 vocalists.
This revival of Ragtime does not leave you with any great nostalgia for a bygone era, but instead is all about hope and about how quickly the world can change; how we make our own futures. I find that very inspiring.

The $250,000 Ferrari was found wrapped around a pole after "zinging" through a residential area.
Both the driver and his passenger walked free from the wreckage, but were taken to Royal Adelaide Hospital for treatment.
A witness identified only as Vlado said: "I was outside my house talking and we heard something fly up and it was this black Ferrari. It sounded just like, 'zing, zing", as it went past."
We're making a few assumptions here, but when a young guy is driving a Ferrari worth a quarter of a million bucks, and then splits it almost in two, someone's going to be grounded for life.

House Democratic Leader Franklin Sands, D-Weston, warned that the Legislature?s Republican leadership is verging on being ?racially insensitive? for scheduling a special session on days conflicting with a national conference of black legislators taking place in Fort Lauderdale.
Sands on Tuesday asked House Speaker Larry Cretul to postpone the session (focused on transportation issues) until next week, which would mean scuttling floor sessions scheduled for Thursday and Friday. The National Black Caucus of State Legislators runs Wednesday-Saturday at the Fort Lauderdale Marriott Harbor Hotel, a big deal for Florida?s 26-member black legislative caucus.

Colin Farrell Was 'Uncomfortable' Kissing Kate Beckinsale [AUDIO]
Colin Farrell called in to "On Air with Ryan Seacrest" on Wednesday to talk about the Olympics, his new movie "Total Recall," and kissing his co-star Kate Beckinsale.
Olympic Cheat Sheet — What You Need To Watch
On His Co-Star Kate Beckinsale:
"Kate Beckinsale is very sweet," he says. So, was it hard for Colin to fight Kate in the Total Recall? "You do what the script tells you, she basically beat me upside the head. The trickiest part was kissing her actually. Because she's, of course married to the director of the film [Len Wiseman], so that was slightly uncomfortable."
Colin had this to say about the kiss: "It was fairly harmless, it was fairly innocent. It was just kind of a morning peck. Well, a little bit more than a morning peck, enough to make me a little bit uncomfortable, but the director moved through it fairly fast."
Are You Team Phelps or Team Lochte?
On Total Recall:
"It's a really physical film. For two hours and thirty minutes you are on the run. It was a long shoot 5 months, which is long for a film. It was good, I got in good shape. I went to the gym everyday…I trained, I did a bit of boxing, and just hit the treadmill, and all that. Because I knew the most predominate part of doing the film was the physical aspect. There's some nice dramatic scenes in there as well, but it really was an exercise in kind of physically telling a story," Colin explains.
[soundcloud id='65604590']
Has Colin Been Watching The Olympics?
"I've been kind of catching the recaps in the evenings. I've seen probably more gymnastics than anything else and a little bit of the swimming. But not the way I usually would, because I've just been working promoting this thing [Total Recall]," he tells us.
Meet An Olympic Secret Weapon: Alfred, the Rubber Duck
Colin continues, "I have really fond memories of watching the Olympics in years gone by, particularly when it gets into the athletics and the track and field. The 400 meters and the 100 meters, and the 200 meters. Lads like Carl Lewis, I grew up watching him. I remember when Ben Johnson won and that whole thing. And then years after that Dwain Chambers and Linford Christie."
"Total Recall" hits theaters Friday, August 3rd!

18 of the most sophisticated cats and dogs you'll ever see
2/11/2013Pets are complicated. One moment they're looking serene and dignified, with hidden wisdom and noble impulses flooding their hearts. A second later, they're licking up a pool of their own vomit. As undignified as every pet owner knows their beloved animal can be, something about a dog wearing a monocle just fits. (Even though five seconds later, the pooch probably tried to eat that monocle like a see-through Cheeto.) Here are of the most sophisticated-looking animals the Internet has to offer. But if you have a tiny top hat and a cat in your house, we encourage you to try and out-class them.

Loctite® Retaining Compounds
Retaining compounds have found wide acceptance as a standard method for assembling press- and slip-fitted parts. Retaining compounds, an anaerobic adhesive, fills the "inner space" between components and cures to form a strong precision assembly. Other anaerobic products offered by Henkel include gasket sealants / flange sealants, thread sealants and threadlockers.
Find the right Retaining Compound to meet your application needs:
General Purpose, Medium Strength Retaining Compounds
High Temperature Retaining Compounds
Retaining Compounds for Close-Fitting Parts
Retaining Compounds for Loose-Fitting Parts
Retaining Compounds for Machinery Repair
Retaining Compound Benefits
- Loctite retaining compounds provide a 100% seal, preventing any fretting corrosion from shock and vibration once the joint is sealed.
- The hardened retaining compound eliminates the costly risk of fatigue cracking, which can lead to machinery downtime.
- The easier assembly of slip fits reduces the number of rejects due to distortion and galling, saving money while improving assembly performance.
- Since assembly-induced stresses are absent from slip fit designs, the retaining compound improves fatigue life and reduces field failures.
- Increase the sheer strength of cylindrical, non-threaded assemblies.
- An industry standard for assembling press-and-slip fitted parts.
- Fill the "inner space" between components and cure to form a strong precision assembly.
- Formulated in a variety of viscosoties, gap fills, flexibility and strength characteristics.

text: Approximately 50,000 merchant ships trade internationally, carrying 90% of world trade goods and 50% of Canadian exports. Pacific coast ship traffic is increasing dramatically as trade increases with Asia. Most commercial ships are fuelled by a cheap, thick brew of sulphur and sludge known as Bunker C fuel. It is literally what is left at the bottom of the barrel after distilling Crude oil and removing the fractions used in propane gas, naptha, gasoline for cars, and jet fuel. It is so thick that it has to be preheated before it will burn. Ships have enough space to do this before feeding the fuel into their large propelling and/or auxiliary engines. Bunker C is heavily contaminated with various substances which cannot be removed so, when burned, it pollutes heavily. One large ship generates about 5,000 tonnes of Sulphur oxide (SOx) every year. The low grade fuel has up to 2000 times the sulphur content of normal diesel fuel used in North American and European automobiles. The resulting sulphur-heavy emissions are released along with high concentrations of fine particulate matter (PM 2.5), and nitrous oxides (NOx). According to US academic research, emissions from the global cargo shipping fleet lead to 60,000 deaths in the US alone. Research done by the Danish government's environmental agency estimates that every year there are 1000 premature deaths and health care costs of 5 billion pounds, mainly for treating cancers and heart problems caused by shipping emissions. On March 26, 2010 the International Maritime Organization (IMO) amended the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships (MARPOL) designating specific portions of U.S., Canadian, and French waters as an Emission Control Area (ECA). In Canada, that area includes waters extending out 200 nautical miles off the Pacific Coast and Atlantic Coast. ECA standards should become enforceable in August, 2012 and ships complying with them will reduce their emissions of NOx, SOx, and PM 2.5. By 2020, those annual reductions are expected to be in the order of 320,000 tonnes of NOx, 90,000 tonnes of PM 2.5, and 920,000 tonnes of SOx which is 23%, 74%, and 86% reduction, respectively, below the predicted levels without the ECA compliance. The Environmental Protection Agency of the U.S. estimates that the new ECA buffer zone will save 8,000 lives a year. As with other coastal cities and towns that have acted on ship emission concerns, Port Alberni should require vessels to switch to low sulphur fuel while in Port. This would minimize negative health outcomes from ship emissions, especially during inversion weather conditions and especially for neighbourhoods that are only a few hundred meters away from the docks. Better monitoring for ship pollution could also be installed using fees collected from ships on behalf of Transport Canada.

DC Collectibles Reveals Batman: The Dark Knight Returns – Call to Arms Statue @ NYCC
At New York Comic Con, DC Collectibles announced the Batman: The Dark Knight Returns – Call to Arms Statue which is based off Frank Miller's The Dark Knight. This special statue depicts the Dark Knight on a horse. In Miller's graphic novel Superman diverts a Russian nuclear warhead which then detonates in a desert, Gotham is hit by an electromagnetic pulse and descends into chaos during the resulting blackout. Which means no Batmobile! This highly detailed statue will make its appearance sometime in the first to second quarter of 2013. So keep an eye out! Check out the full statue below.

Ferrara Tourist Attractions
SituationFerrara, capital of the province of the same name, lies 5km/3mi south of the River Po in the fertile north Italian plain. The distance from Ferrara to the Adriatic coast is about 50km/31mi.Ferrara, see of an archbishop, and with a small university, was once the splendid capital of the dukes of Este and an important trading center. Its wide streets, forbidding castle and sumptuous Renaissance palaces still bear witness to the great days of its past.HistoryThe town first appears in the records at the time of the Great Migration. In 1332 it fell into the hands of the Este family, one of the oldest noble houses in Italy (961-1598), which reached its period of greatest splendor in the 16th century Ariosto (1474-1533), the greatest Italian poet of the day, and the poet Torquato Tasso (1544-95) lived at the brilliant Renaissance court. Girolamo Savonarola was born in Ferrara in 1452. In 1598 the town was incorporated in the Papal State and in 1860 it was united with the Kingdom of Italy.The flea market, Piazza Travaglio, opens every Monday.

Este Castle
In the center of Ferrara is the picturesque Castello Estense, the four-towered moated castle of the Este family, begun in 1385 and partly rebuilt after 1554. The castle contains frescoes by pupils of Dosso Dossi (1489/90-1542). The roof gardens are also open to visitors.

Piazza Savonarola
South of the Castello in Ferrara is the Piazza Savonarola, with a monument to Savonarola, the great preacher and reformer. Here, too, we find the Palazzo Comunale, once the palace of the dukes of Este (originally built in 1243, rebuilt in the 14/15th century), with a facade of 1924.
A little way southeast of the Castello in Ferrara rises the cathedral, with a magnificent facade in Lombard Romanesque style (12th-14th century); it contains pictures by artists of the Ferrara school; near the altar are two 15th century bronze statues (St Maurelius and St Georg); in the transept are busts of the apostles, and a very fine painting of "Mary with the Saints".

National Gallery
Opposite the Palazzo Sacrati in Ferrara, to the south, is the Palazzo dei Diamanti, a superb example of Early Renaissance architecture (1492-1567) which takes it name from the faceted stones of its facade. It now contains the National Gallery, with works by 15th-16th century painters of the Ferrara school.

The surroundings of Ferrara include the town of Comacchio and the Benedictine abbey of Santa Maria di Pomposa.
57km/35mi southeast of Ferrara, Comacchio (pop. 21,500), a picturesquely situated town, is the center of the Valli di Comacchio, which consists of thirteen islands connected by canals. Near Comacchio is the site of two cemeteries of the Greek-Roman port of Spina (fourth-third century B.C.).
Abbazia Santa Maria di Pomposa
North of Comacchio lies the Benedictine abbey of Santa Maria di Pomposa (founded in the seventh century), of importance during the Middle Ages but abandoned in the 17th century because of the prevalent malaria. The church, built in the eighth-ninth centuries and enlarged in the 10th-11th centuries, has an impressive atrium and a campanile 48m/158ft high; inside are a mosaic floor and 14th century frescoes. Near the church are the chapter-house with well-preserved frescoes, the refectory (c. 1420) and the Palazzo della Ragione (now a college of agriculture).

Our investigation team recently visited fifteen pig farms in Spain. What we found could best be described as a catalogue of animal abuse.
Warning: This film contains scenes of animal suffering which you may find upsetting. Please watch with caution.
Spain continues to be one of the worst offenders in terms of enforcing the law on tail docking and enrichment. Compassion is making a formal complaint about this issue to the European Commission but it is vital to keep up the pressure on the Spanish Minister to ensure this appalling and illegal treatment of pigs ends.
You can help us by urging the Spanish Agriculture Minister to take immediate action to make sure that welfare is at the heart of pig farming in Spain.
Fill in the form below to send this email today.
Dear Miguel Arias Cañete,
Compassion in World Farming has recently conducted an investigation of Spanish pig farms. Compassion visited fifteen farms, nine of which housed fattening pigs. Their evidence indicates that all nine farms were breaking the EU legislation that bans routine tail docking and requires pigs to be given enrichment materials so that they can engage in their natural investigation and manipulation activities. All the farms were barren; not the slightest attempt was made to provide enrichment. All the pigs were tail docked.
It is totally unacceptable that Spain is still not enforcing EU laws on enrichment and tail docking which have been in place for over 10 years. I urge you to watch this short film and take urgent action to ensure that pig farms in Spain comply with EU law in this area.
Yours sincerely
[Your name]

Cathy from Olympia, WA
Deluxe ergonomic drafting chair I couldn't find another chair with this height variation. I bought this draft chair for sewing. I wanted something between a kitchen chair and one I could get higher like a bar stool as well. It's comfortible and does the trick. Its very hard to find an in-between chair-----so I'm very happy!! |
Chris from Vermont
Very nice chair The chair works very well and the fabric upgrade was worth it. Only problem is I assumed the advertised height of 27.5" but it is 26.5" and when I sit on it (all 190 lbs) it drops to 25". A bit low for my desk but fortunately that is adjustable. |
Tangerine Gecko from Markham, On
Optimal Used by 3 individuals during the week. Easy to adjust to satisfy everyone's comfort. |
Beanie from New Orleans, LA
Chair provides good value for features. Price was below similar chairs seen in stores locally. Has made using my computer on the high counter area very comfortable. Has made my posture ergonometric again. |
Dave the Sound Engineer from CHATTANOOGA
Solid Comfortable Chair Solid Comfortable Chair. |
J Schwartz from Clermont, Fl
Good if you like to lean back This is a good chair if you like to lean back while you work. It would be nice to be able to adjust the angle of the back without changing the angle of the seat. Also, the footring could be larger. As it is, you must bend your knees to rest your feet on the ring. Your knees should be at a 90 degree angle. |

Five Obamacare Myths
ON the subject of the Affordable Care Act - Obamacare, to reclaim the name critics have made into a slur - a number of fallacies seem to be congealing into accepted wisdom. Much of this is the result of unrelenting Republican propaganda and right-wing punditry, but it ...

Myanmar announces record drugs bust
YANGON MYANMAR authorities on Monday hailed progress in their war on drugs after an unprecedented multi-million dollar seizure at an narcotics factory in eastern Shan state.
Police detained nine suspects with 73 kilograms (161 pounds) of "ice" crystal methamphetamine and 274 kilos of liquid meth along with drug-making equipment and a pistol during a raid on a house in Laukkai on July 9, state media reported.
Officials said the haul was worth an estimated $3.7 million.
"It's our biggest ice seizure in history. It's a part of our crackdown on the chemical ingredients and factories," a senior official at the home affairs ministry, who did not want to be named, told AFP.
Synthetic drug production and poppy cultivation for opium is prevalent in Myanmar's remote border areas, where armed ethnic minority rebels have used the profits from narcotics to fund their operations.
President Thein Sein's reformist government has signed peace accords with a number of armed groups as part of sweeping reforms since taking power last year.
Myanmar has said it aims to eradicate illegal drugs by 2014.
The country, which is slowly emerging from decades of military rule, is the world's second-largest opium poppy grower after Afghanistan.
Shan state is a major source of methamphetamine tablets, according to the UN, which estimates that global seizures of amphetamine-type stimulants nearly tripled between between 1998 and 2010, reflecting fast-growing demand.

Five reasons why you
have to
Rock The Boat this year!
Issued by: Launch Factory
If you've never Rocked The Boat before... well, we're very sorry to hear it. But, there is still time! You, friend, really
to read this before it's too late.
If you
experienced the ultimate floating party before, read this anyway, so you can smile and nod in agreement the whole time, and then let us know which of the hundreds of other reasons why it's simply unmissable we've left out. Either way,
is when you should book your cabin! Time is running out...
1. This Boat rocks... like, really,
Seriously, if you were to try to catch the
entertainment line-up we've got stacked for Durban Rock The Boat with Fusion Ice this year anywhere else, you'd need a
- never mind a long weekend - and probably your own aeroplane to schlep you from city to city, locally and abroad.
The finest rock bands (like, say, Zebra & Giraffe, Locnville, Teargas and The Arrows, for example,) the greatest DJs (how about DJ Fresh, Euphonik, Erica Elle, Milkshake and many others, for a start?) and top comedians (including Conrad Koch, Tumi Morake and David Newton) among many others, are all on board.
And you really should be too... like, for
2. It's just
Durban rock The Boat with Fusion Ice has a new headline sponsor, as you've probably noticed by now. The good people from the City of Durban have allied themselves with us because (firstly) Durban really likes to party and (secondly) our glorious cruise-liner the MSC Sinfonia is the largest (and raddest) ocean-liner servicing South Africa's ports, and Durban is pretty proud of that. As they should be.
See, The Boat starts amidst the glorious splendour of Durban, then sails, over the magnificent Indian Ocean - through its associated blazing sunshine - to the tropical magic of Mozambique and the Portuguese Islands.
Never mind the fact that the
of The Boat packs enough party awesomeness to stock a thousand bachelor's parties, the environment itself is breathtaking. Almost as breathtaking as the 2000-odd guests partying their faces off on board!
3. It's a more of a floating resort hotel than a "boat!"
We've said it before and we'll keep saying it: if the MSC Sinfonia is just a "boat," then Bill Gates is just an "I.T guy."This glorious vessel not only accommodates the most ludicrous party on the seven seas every year, it also rocks a casino, ten bars, three clubs, four restaurants, swimming pools, gaming rooms, a cinema, and far more than we have time to list here...
Think of the raddest resort you've ever been to. Then, imagine it sailing from one magical holiday destination to another. Now, add the maddest party anyone's ever been crazy enough to think up and a couple thousand very sexy people... Got the picture? Excellent!
4. The people are amazing!
It makes sense, with all the celebrities, sunshine, party grooves and boardies-and-bikinis action going on, that Rock The Boat parties attract a really, really sexy crowd every year. But there's more to it than that. Each year, we make new friends, and we keep them! And, each year, we see our old friends from around SA and the world again when they keep coming back. Because it's awesome.
Now that we're a few years into this amazing idea, Rock the Boat is growing into a family. And we'd really like to have you amongst our numbers. You'll be amazed at how many new friends we make whose only regret is that they didn't come to one of these sooner!
5. This year, it's
easier to pay!
Sponsored by Virgin Money.
That's right, we're pretty connected peeps over here. Homies in high places, and all that! Which is why our friends over at Virgin Money thought they'd help us - and you - out by coming up with some seriously genius payment plans for us. You can now book your cabin, and pay it off! Options for one or two installments are available. Check out
for more information.
There are still some cabins available, friends. Not many, but enough for you and your crew to come along, be our guests and join the thousands of people who already have some seriously epic party stories to tell! Visit
for more info on The Boat itself, the entertainment line-up, FAQs and payment options!
See you at the dock, and then - for three days - it's time to rock!

Deadly Mistakes Home Sellers Make!
Hi, My name is Susan Russell and I am a Real Estate expert in the South Valley Riverton area!
I want to share with you some personal stories of actual clients and what I and they have learned from this Real Estate market! Deadly mistakes Home Sellers make is something that is happening over and over again in the crazy Real Estate market right now!
Some of my latest clients have learned that…
Mistake #1. Trying to do it all by yourselves! FSBO ANYONE?(FSBO stands for "For Sale By Owner")
When Joe & Kathy called me…they had been trying to sell "For Sale By Owner" for quite a while and were tired of the hassle and "lookie-loos"! You see, when you are selling FSBO in Riverton or anywhere in the south part of the valley…even in Lehi…most people who come through your home are not even qualified to buy your home, they probably have been reading a book about how to buy a house that is worth $250,000 for only $150,000! And they want you to be the first one they try it on! Yes, there are people who have been successful in selling a home by themselves…but did you realize that the statistics show that only about 2-3% of all homes advertised for sale by owner…ever actually sell without a Professional Realtors help? That's a lot of work and stress for that poor home-owner who will not very likely see any success at all! Joe & Kathy were so relieved when I showed them how I sell homes, my marketing plan and all the ways I help stage and prepare their home before we even put it on the market! They made the improvements I suggested, rented a storage unit to de-clutter their home and were REALISTIC about their price! What that means is that they had to price it much lower than what they were hoping! But we got an offer in the first month, closed in 4 weeks and they are now living happily in their new 2 story home with 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and a fenced back yard for their 3 beautiful children!
When you're looking for help buying or selling property, it's important to remember that the terms "real estate agent" and "Realtor" are not synonymous. Before they chose me as their realtor, they did talk to and interview a few other "Real Estate Agents"…and some of them told them they could sell their home at a much higher price. I showed them what would have happened if they had priced it that high and they were glad that I was able to save them months and months of frustration and stress!
I'd love to hear any of your comments or questions!
