Logitech Keyboard Gives Mac Users an Edge
Rechargeable diNovo Edge Keyboard, Mac Edition Features Slim Design, Optimized Mac Layout, PerfectStroke Key System
FREMONT, Calif. Aug. 2008 Logitech (SWX: LOGN) (NASDAQ: LOGI) today announced the perfect keyboard to complement your Mac® computer. The Logitech® diNovo Edge, Mac® Edition is the newest addition to Logitechs line of award-winning diNovo keyboards and the first diNovo keyboard specially designed for the Mac.
Were truly delighted to offer discerning Mac enthusiasts our highest quality in keyboard design and performance, said Denis Pavillard, vice president of product marketing for Logitechs keyboards and desktops. From the piano-black finish to its built-in TouchDisc touch pad, the diNovo Edge can make it a pleasure for you to type, control music or launch your favorite applications.
Since the introduction of the original diNovo Media Desktop® in 2004, Logitechs diNovo line of distinctive keyboards has garnered many awards in response to its blend of design and performance. The newest diNovo keyboard is exceptionally thin (½ inch or 11.05 mm) with a high-gloss, semi-translucent Plexiglas® frame, sharp angles and soft-orange backlighting. The aluminum palm rest with anodized-silver finish looks good with any Mac computer, including the iMac® and the MacBook® Pro.
In addition to its design, the diNovo Edge, Mac Edition features optimized Mac keys for one-touch access to Mail, Safari and iTunes®, as well as many other Mac-specific applications. The new Logitech keyboard even offers a Power button that turns your Mac computer on and off, while the TouchDisc allows you to scroll and navigate from your keyboard. Moving a finger up and down or across the disc moves the cursor on the computer screen, and moving the finger in a circular motion around the perimeter of the TouchDisc enables you to scroll horizontally and vertically through documents. (Logitech Control Center software installation is required for some features.)
For a typing experience thats comfortable, fluid and silent, the new Logitech keyboard features the Logitech PerfectStroke key system. PerfectStroke is designed to create longer key travel 3.2 mm compared to 2.2 mm than that of typical notebook keyboards, which means that the distance your fingers have to travel to activate a key is optimized for your comfort. And because micro-scissors distribute force evenly across key surfaces, even if you strike the edge of a key, the key stroke still feels the same.
An included charging base eliminates the hassle of changing batteries, with a four-hour charge giving you up to one month of battery life. A 10-minute power charge provides one day of use.
So you can get started right away, the new Logitech keyboard connects directly to a Mac computer through Bluetooth® wireless technology, providing a range of up to 30 feet.
Pricing and Availability
The Logitech diNovo Edge, Mac Edition cordless keyboard is expected to be available in the U.S. beginning this month. The suggested retail price in the U.S. is $159.99.

Keen Targhee - Men's

Price Paid: $135
I have a pair of Keen Men's Targhee waterproof, and they are NOT BREATHABLE. Very hot and sweaty, so much so that I have to take them off at every sit down stop, including trail rest, restaurants, and flights.
The fit and support is great but does not overcome the non breathablity.
I will not buy again.

Materials: leather
Use: short hikes
Price Paid: £80
I bought a pair of Keen Targhee II online and was immediately impressed. The wide toe box was super comfy and I kept admiring my feet when walking for the first few days.
However I soon noticed that the breathability is foot rot poor, they are way too hot for me. Then after a walk in wet grass I noticed the "water proof" membrane is not actually waterproof. So they are now demoted to very comfy dog walking shoes but then after only six months the soles have worn so badly on the outside of the heel that if I wear them they turn my ankle over!
In short, sweaty, leaky and wear out in no miles at all. I replaced them with some bottom of the range Karimor boots for a third of the price, they're not waterproof, but perfect in every other respect.
Very comfortable and great traction but durability…
Materials: leather
Use: light hiking
Price Paid: $130
Very comfortable and great traction but durability is poor at best. I loved these so much when I bought them that I bought a second pair. The first pair started to fall apart in about 6 months of wearing them light hiking (stitching started falling apart and the bottom started de-laminating), it took the second pair about 18 months to follow suit.
The waterproofing is weak at best as they leaked from the beginning, and even after I returned a pair due to this and got replacements I had the problem with the new ones as well. I have a friend who has these same shoes and has the same issues so it seems to be a poor material of design issue.
In short - very comfortable but terrible durability - I'll not waste any more money on their hiking boots again.
I am trying to gear this review towards those who…
Price Paid: $87.36
I am trying to gear this review towards those who have not been buying quality hiking/trail shoes. Some shoes fit - some shoes fit great. These fit great for me, that's what it's all about finding shoes that FIT GREAT for you. A great shoe should move with YOU, the way YOU go the shoe goes.
Keen Targhee - very solid sturdy shoe and if you're not used to this type of direct feel for the terrain you may think the shoe is not performing well, (probably because you have been hiking or walking in sneakers or work-boots) of which these are not! What these are - performance footwear - A shoe with a purpose! Total control and traction on flat and incline surfaces including sand, dirt, gravel and wet grass uphill and down.
We're not hiking Everest here, we're just trekking through local hill-sides,the beach,rugged trails and wet terrain.
Trekking, not running, this is not a running shoe or a backpack shoe. Light hiking any-where.
It is extremely comfortable. Has Keen-Dri waterproof, I have stood in a stream below ankle and stayed dry, 3 hours in wet snow my socks were wet - Few shoes are "Waterproof"(Salomon B52 Ts Gtx) different story. All around great shoe.
This is possibly the most comfortable shoe that I…
Materials: Leather & w/p membrain, Keen composite sole
Use: Urban fitness training
Break-in Period: Nil
Weight: approx 2lb
Price Paid: $200 NZ
This is possibly the most comfortable shoe that I have had in the last 50 years of climbing and hill walking (I am in my 70s).
They have been used for fitness training on an urban hill circuit of 7 km 5 days per week and after a mere 9 months are completely shagged. After 1 month pieces were coming adrift from the soles so back for repair. After 2 months the same this time stuck back with super glue. Now the soles are finished but the tops as good as new, there is in my humble opinion a serious design or quality control fault.
Comfort, tops ... Wear cost for me is nearly 16c per km and unacceptably expensive.

Materials: Leather, gore-tex
Use: Hiking, trail hikes.
Break-in Period: 3-4 days
Weight: ?? Me or the shoe?! I weigh 170lbs
Price Paid: $100
I have a pair of Keen H2 that are one of the best pairs of shoes I've ever owned...they've gone through every possible condition in the last 2 years and still have plenty of life in them.
Sadly, I just bought a pair of Targhees and this was a mistake. Less than 2 weeks in (with no field work or hiking, just kicking around in them to break them in) the rubber is coming unglued from the uppers on the inside of each shoe - terrible quality. I only hope I still have the receipt so I can return them. If my retailer/Keen is cooperative, I'll get another pair - if not, I'll never buy another pair of Keens.

Price Paid: 90
What? this is where ratings systems that allow you to select stars based on personal preference go wrong. These shoes are great, and they hold up wonderfully. I am on my second pair after a year with no problems.
These shose are not like other brands where the heal is so wide you can toss the shoe off while walking. They are not made for gorillas with huge wide feet, like most brands.
If you have wide feet, go for Salomon or some other brand. The old Targhee had wider heals but they fixed it in the new one!

Materials: leather
Use: short dayhikes
Break-in Period: 20 miles of light walking
Price Paid: $100
My feet are EE, and I love these shoes. They took 20 miles of light walking/hiking to break in decently, but they're great now.
When I first wore them, the material was tight above the top of my foot, even with the laces opened wide. Before even lacing up my toes felt as though I had already laced them up tight. But as I said, they have broken in nicely and are very comfortable now.
I've had them for six months or so, and have maybe 150 miles in them. They're very comfortable, have good tread that doesn't show very much wear at all, and still look good.
They weren't the lightest shoe in the price range I was looking in, but they fit the best.

Heartland's President Says Institute in Financial Crisis
By Suzanne Goldenberg, The Guardian
The ultra-conservative Heartland Institute said it was in financial crisis on Wednesday, with the flight of corporate donors making it difficult to pay staff or cover the costs of its annual conference aimed at debunking climate science.
In a speech at the close of this year's climate conference, Heartland's president, Joseph Bast, acknowledged that a provocative ad campaign comparing believers in human-made climate change to psychopaths had exacted a heavy cost.
However, Bast also attributed Heartland's current problems to his weakness in financial management.
"These conferences are expensive, and I'm not a good fundraiser so as a result I don't raise enough money to cover them. We really scramble to make payroll as a result to cover these expenses," Bast said.
The organization has lost at least $825,000 in funds from corporate donors although Heartland also claims to have attracted 800 new small donors. Heartland also came in for bruising criticism from its own allies – a number of whom faulted Bast for failing to consult Heartland's colleagues or board members about the ads in advance.
Among conservative activists, the billboard controversy has shaken confidence in Heartland's ability to serve as the hub of the climate contrarian network. It has also raised doubts about Bast's leadership. Bast is listed on Heartland's website as its earliest employee. His wife is also employed at Heartland.
But Heartland was facing a cash crunch even before the Peter Gleick expose.
Nine employees were due to be laid or take pay cuts in 2011, according to the budget documents obtained by Gleick.
This year's conference was a drastically shrunken version of earlier Heartland gatherings, which attracted up to 800 attendees and ran several concurrent sessions. Those events were also lucrative for Heartland, accounting for half of its non-fundraising events revenue, according to documents obtained through deception by Gleick.
At this year's gathering in Chicago, fewer than 170 turned up for the gala opening banquet, and the conference only managed to eke out one session at a time, and brought in relatively few outside speakers.
And the only member of Congress to attend this year, conservative Republican Jim Sensenbrenner, used his speech to criticize Heartland for the billboard.
"We can continue to win these debates out of the strength of our arguments without recourse to unsavoury tactics that only serve to distract from our message," he said. "Let's not get off message."
Heartland initially had not even planned to hold a conference. But after the organization was shaken last February by the Internet sting exposing its donor list and fundraising strategy, Heartland changed its mind.
However, Bast said Heartland may stop putting on the conferences. "I hope to see you at a future conference, but at this point we have no plans to do another."

Located in Gauteng, South Africa, the Gauteng provincial government has bought out the track's remaining contract with WSBK in an effort to "re-prioritize" the local government's budget of local programs. Kyalami was set to host WSBK through 2013, but instead it looks like this will be the South African's track last season until the Gauteng government becomes financially stable again.

should ask our self this question:
Since when fraudulent and diabolical Communist atheistic religion Theory of Evolution
became a part of our Holy Roman Catholic Faith?
Marxist Evolutionists are teaching Communist Religion in our schools: "Theory of Evolution" - proven fraud in all areas. KGB in Moscow was providing 2 years free education for all students of the world. They did not teach them Socialism or Communism, only thing they were teaching them was "Theory of Evolution". Now these brainwashed "scientists" are teaching your children.
will lose the faith and become the seat of the Antichrist."
Prophecy of the Blessed Virgin Mary in La Salette
The classic that uses the research from respected scientists from around the world to question the foundation of evolution; proving that it is more a philosophy than a scientific theory.
Product Description
This 1997 video ? now available for the first-time here on DVD ? remains a classic of the genre. Top-notch scientists from around the world with PhDs in everything from paleontology to chemistry, molecular biology to engineering give the program substantial academic credibility and the graphics and animations, while a little dated and simplistic, nevertheless do a good job of illustrating the various pointsThe section on sedimentation is particularly interesting and devastating to the evolutionary model ,
The controversy regarding the theory of evolution vs. Biblical creationism has been going on ever since Darwin penned The Origin of Species. And the trajectory of modern science has tended to heavily favor, even insist upon, the materialistic assumptions that gave rise to and sustains Darwins theory. But that is slowly beginning to change as new scientific evidence is being uncovered that supports the creationist position.
Scientists from around the world are interviewed in this fascinating documentary. We learn why they do not except blind chance and evolution as a reasonable explanation for the origin of the universe, life or man. We further uncover remarkable new evidences that support Biblical creationism. For example, recent experiments conducted at Colorado State University cast serious doubt on one of the pillars of modern geology and evolutionary theory: that rocks and sediments can be used to date both fossils and the earth.
This well-produced video features graphics, illustrations and interesting locations in introducing the viewer to one of the most important and far-reaching disputes of the modern era.
Scientists featured:
Dr. Giuseppe Sermonti, molecular biology
Dr. Roberto Fonda, paleontology
Dr. Pierre Julien, engineering river mechanics, erosion sedimentation
Dr. Maciej Gietych, dendrology (science and study of wooded plants)
Dr. Guy Berthault, sedimentology
Dr. Edward Boudreaux, chemistry

We all know that fairytales are fantasies that a princess kiss will never turn a frog into a potential husband. Yet evolutionists insist that ancestral amphibians evolved into human beings through a process far less complex and intelligent than a princess kiss: blind-chance mutations and natural selection.

The seminal debate on what has been called the greatest crisis of our time all from a biblical worldview perspective. Fascinating.
Product Description
Anyone who wants a crash course on this issue one that is growing in importance on an almost daily basis needs to watch this fascinating debate. theology, science and razor-sharp rhetorical skills are all on prominent display. And most importantly, there is a thoughtful and rigorous discussion concerning our responsibilities as advocates for the poor, for future generations and for our miraculous garden planet , Founder/President of , producer of Hells Bells 2 The Power and Spirit of Popular Music
Global warmingit has been called the greatest threat facing humanity today. Among those addressing its supposed challenges are Christians, people whose faith and worldview require care for the planet (stewardship) as well as love for their neighbor and future generations. Enter the Evangelical Climate Initiative (ECI) and a significant effort on the part of churches, ministries and individuals to answer this new call to action
But not everybody agrees that the increase in global temperature is significant or human-induced or will necessarily lead to catastrophic climate change. Adaptation rather than mitigation may be the best and most biblically sound approach, particularly when the supporters of mitigation are advocating greater government control over industry and CO2 emissions.
In the spirit of Proverbs 18:17 (The one who states his case first seems right, until the other comes and examines him), Union University sponsored a formal debate on the issue between two premier Christian scholars. On one side is Dr. David P. Gushee, Graves Professor of Moral Philosophy and one of the drafters of the ECI. On the other is Dr. E. Calvin Beisner, one of the authors of A Call to Truth, Prudence, and Protection of the Poor: An Evangelical Response to Global Warming and associate professor associate professor of historical theology and social ethics at Knox Theological Seminary. He is also one of the founders of The Interfaith Stewardship Alliance a leading advocacy group for Biblically based environmental stewardship using sound science and economics and putting humanitys needs, especially those of the poor, first.

One of the finest and most accessible short films that examines some of lifes biggest questions. Wonderfully provocative
Product Description
One of the most fascinating presentations on the Big Question I have ever seenGreat for provoking serious thought and discussion among skeptics and believers alike President,
Where did the universe come from? How did it start? Why are we here? Is there a God behind it all?
Recent discoveries in physics and other fields suggest a radically new picture of the universe and humanitys place in it. Rather than being a sea of chaos, it appears instead to be intricately fine-tuned, a mechanism whose very physical laws seems to have been designed from the very first nanosecond toward a single end: the creation of life, specifically human life.
Welcome to The Evidence: God, the Universe and Everything
What makes this presentation even more amazing is that some of the highly respected scientists and cosmologists interviewed who admit that the evidence points to a Creator are not Christians or even conventional theists.
Host Dwight Nelson does a great job of making the science accessible to a lay audience. Among the scientists interviewed are:
Peter Russell, author of From Science to God
Brian Greene, author of The Elegant Universe and host of the award-winning PBS special of the same name.
Elisabet Sahtouris, author of Earthdance
Alan H. Guth, author of The Inflationary Universe

Three Creation Science Programs on One DVD! From Mount Saint Helens to the Grand Canyon. the Alps and the bottom of the sea to the Uluru formation in Australia, the evidence for a catastrophic flood is all around us.
Product Description
Evolutionary geology, like biology, is based on gradualism or incrementalism, the idea that profound change like the creation of mountains and canyons is the cumulative product of slow but continuous processes. But evidence abounds that great catastrophes, like the worldwide flood described in the Bible, are a better explanation for many of these amazing formations.
1. Raging Waters Australian Aboriginal legends speak of catastrophic events in recent history. Travel with Atlas Adventures as geologists Dr. Andrew Snelling, Dr. Graeme Watmuff, and Philip Hohnen present evidence that Uluru, in the heart of the red desert, was formed rapidly and relatively recently in torrential flooding. (27 minutes)
2. The Grand Canyon Catastrophe Leading creation scientists challenge conventional geology in presenting evidence that the Grand Canyon was carved from rapid drainage of post-Flood lakes. This video features Dr. John Morris, Dr. Duane Gish, Dr. Stephen Austin and Dr. Andrew Snelling. (27 minutes)
3. Evidences: The Record and the Flood Journey to the Grand Canyon, the Alps, geologic formations in New Zealand, and even to the bottom of the ocean as this video explores worldwide evidence of a great deluge a worldwide flood of truly Biblical proportions. Features Patrick McLeod; Ariel Roth and Clyde Webster of the Geoscience Institute and sedimentologists Arjen van der Wolf and Tom Zoutewelle. (45 minutes)

Perhaps the best documentary on science ever made!
Product Description
This may be the best reviewed documentary on Amazon and I completely concur. This is hands-down my favorite creation science/intelligent design film in the worldthe Aha! moment where we learn that God designed our world to be a astronomical laboratory from which to study the heavens is stand up and shout strong ,
Today, most scientists and philosophers claim that Earth is an ordinary speck of dust adrift, without purpose or significance, in a vast cosmic sea. This idea (popularized by the late astronomer, Carl Sagan) is an out-growth of the naturalistic philosophy that has dominated science for the past 150 years.
Yet, remarkable evidenceunveiled by contemporary astronomy and physics-may now tell a very different story. Building upon the overwhelming success of Unlocking the Mystery of Life (widely acclaimed as the most effective refutation of Darwinian theory ever produced), Illustra Media presents The Privileged Planet This hour-long documentary explores the scientific evidence for intelligent design and purpose in the universe. In the process, Earth is revealed as far more than the product of time, chance, and random natural processes. We now know that a rare and finely tuned array of factors makes Earth suitable for complex life. We depend on our planets oxygen-rich atmosphere, its large moon, its planetary neighbors, and its precise location within the solar system and Milky Way galaxy.
But the story does not end here. For, the same factors that make a planet like Earth hospitable to life also provide the best conditions for scientific discovery. Is this correlation merely a coincidence? Or does it point to a deeper truth about the purpose of the cosmos and the reality of a transcendent designer? The answer could dramatically affect 21st century science. Through stunning computer animation, interviews with leading scientists, and spectacular images of Earth and the cosmos, The Privileged Planet explores a startling connection between our capacity to survive and our ability to observe and understand the universe, a connection that points directly to the work of a creative mind and plan. This extraordinary documentary will be a focal point in the escalating debate between evolution and design.

As a Christian who is active in apologetics, this has quickly become one of my favorite tools. SUCCISA VIRESCIT
Since Copernicus' revolution, science has tended to grant less and less significance to both the earth and human life when weighed against the age and immensity of the cosmos. Not only doesn't the sun revolve around us, it turns out that our world is merely a speck floating in a dark backwater of one galaxy among one hundred billion others. And man, Darwin and his followers tell us, is a cosmic accident; the result of matter plus time plus chance. But a new revolution has been quietly taking place. Science is discovering more and more evidence for design and intentionality in the universe. And among the most fascinating of these discoveries is what has been called The Anthropic Principle: the idea that the universe appears to have been carefully engineered in order to produce carbon-based life forms and, yes, even man.
In this fascinating documentary, eight world-renowned scientists grapple with the science and implications of this principle and conclude that Shakespeare may well have been right: There are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in our philosophy. This 50 minute program features:
Dr. Paul Davies, Professor of Theoretical Physics, Newcastle University,
Dr. John Wheeler, Professor of Physics, University of Texas, Austin,
Dr. David Deutsch, Professor of Physics, Oxford University,
Dr. Dennis Sciama, Professor of Astrophysics, Cambridge University,

an important and fascinating addition to the vital discussion that is presently taking place in the disciplines of intelligent design and creation science , Founder and President,
How did the Genesis, Noachian Flood happen? A radical new super computer model of catastrophic plate tectonics, developed by Dr. John Baumgardner at Los Alamos National Laboratory, shows how runaway thermal subduction (dont worry, the video explains it all!) could have caused the breakup and flooding of Pangea, the early supercontinent. (This was before Noahs flood and the days of Peleg, when the earth was divided. (Gen. 10:25)
Join Dr. Baumgardner and a number of other scientists as they combine their wide range of scientific backgrounds with their love for God and His revealed Word to explore just how the evidence from creation really does support the Genesis account of origins and the development of the world. Other scientists include:
Dr. Steven Austin; Geologist, Institute for Creation Research
Dr. Andrew Snelling; Geologist, Creation Science Foundation, Brisbane, Australia
Dr. Russell Humphries; Sandia National Laboratories
Dr. Larry Vardiman; Atmospheric Science, Institute for Creation Research

Fossil Evidence of Creation - DVD
$19.95 Order Here
Dinosaurs, according to popular science, have been extinct for some 65 million years. But the Bible describes a creature, Leviathan, that sounds an awful lot like a dinosaur; one that lived contemporaneously with man. And then there are all the legends of dragons and other dinosaur-like creatures that pop up in the history of cultures all over the world.
Does the evidence concerning these fascinating creatures support the evolutionary, old-earth modelor does it point to the young-earth creationist position? You wont hear this in your public school textbooks, but the discovery of unfossilized dinosaur bones suggests that dinosaurs died out relatively recently. Fossil graveyards, petrified forests, and the rapid formation of coal all speak to the Genesis Flood and other post-flood catastrophes.
This video documentary, recorded on location in several fascinating parts of the world, explores this important subject. Featuring interviews with scientists on both sides of this issue, the viewer is taken on an exciting journey into the mysterious world of the terrible lizards Does the fossil evidence reveal gradual evolutionor did Leviathan leave his footprints on the sands of time relatively recently?
This film is perfect for the classroom, whether at home or away, and features three of the most distinguished scientists in the arena of young-earth creationism:
Dr. Steven Austin; Geologist, Institute for Creation Research
Dr. Andrew Snelling; Geologist, Creation Science Foundation, Brisbane, Australia
Dr. Gary Parker, Answers in Genesis
Apes or Ancestors - DVD
$19.95 Order Here
See compelling new evidence supporting the Biblical account of mans creation. Are the fossil remains of supposed proto-humans simply varieties of apes or merely true homo sapiens?.
There are a number of excellent science documentaries that support the Biblical account of creation. But this one is the best at dismantling one key weapon in the materialists war on God, the Bible and special creation: in Darwins words the descent of man from some lower form .an important work ,
Charles Darwin believed our ancestors were hairy bipeds with long tails and pointed ears that swung down from the trees, stood upright and walked. Instead of special creation with man as an image bearer of God Himself and with a purpose and destiny that far surpassed all other animals, man is reduced to a mere accident of evolution slime plus time of no more intrinsic worth that our cousins the chimps.
And modern science seems hell-bent on proving Darwin right, discovering and classifying all manner of fossil bones as ancestors of homo sapiens.
APES OR ANCESTORS carefully examines the views of leading evolutionists, including Bill Kimble at the Institute of Human Origins, Chris Stringer at Londons Natural History Museum and Charles Oxnard in Australia. But then it does what the most schools and media outlets refuse to do: examine the same evidence from a creationist/intelligent design perspective. Carl Wieland with Answers in Genesis in Brisbane and Sigrid Hartwig-Scherer at the University of Munich demonstrate that these fossil remains are nothing more than either varieties of apesor true human ancestors.

I live in a community on Camano Island. We have some communal beach front property and would like to plant some native beach grasses that are about one foot high. What species do we have to choose from and where can we purchase them?
I found a list of native Northwest beach grasses in an online symposium moderated by Alfred Wiedemann of Evergreen State College in Olympia. (The symposium was about an invasive species, Ammophila arenaria, or European beach grass, which has been crowding out native species.) Here are some of the plants he mentioned:
Elymus (Leymus) mollis (Dunegrass)
Abronia latifolia
Convolvulus (Calystegia) soldanella
Carex macrocephala
Glehnia leiocarpa
Lathyrus littoralis
Poa macrantha
Here is a Seattle Times article from May 1, 2005 about beach plants by Valerie Easton that may be of interest to you. The Miller Library has the book that is mentioned in the article, Native Plants in the Coastal Garden by April Pettinger (Timber Press, rev. and updated, 2002), and it includes a list of native grasses. These two grasses were specifically recommended for beachside gardens:
Elymus or Leymus mollis (also listed above)
Festuca rubra (Red fescue)
Washington Native Plant Society might also be a good resource for you. They provide a list of nurseries in our area which specialize in native plants. King County's Native Plant Guide also has a list of sources.

Nine Mustangs on All-BC team
Nine Sweetwater football players have received Class 3A All-Big Country recognition by the Abilene Reporter-News.Two players, junior wide receiver Bray Amos and senior defensive lineman Daven Alvarez, made the first team and two others, Kaleb Hoover and Andrew Davis, are on the second team. Hoover, a senior, was named at wide receiver and defensive back and Davis, also a senior, was chosen on the offensive line. Five Sweetwater players were given honorable mention to the team, which actually consisted of players in 3A through 5A — junior Isaiah McGee at both wide receiver and defensive back, senior Marquees Jenkins at running back and linebacker, junior Kaegan Jeffrey at quarterback, junior Ty Crain on the offensive line and senior Dylan Bennett at defensive back.All nine players had previously received either first or second team all-district recognition and Hoover, Amos and McGee received Class 3A all-state honorable mention from the Associa-ted Press Sports Editors. McGee, Jeffrey, Hoover and Amos were All-Big Country selections a year ago.

Have you ever felt that your life was guided by larger forces? Unseen but very real energies that influence every direction your life takes? In her renowned work as a medical intuitive, Caroline Myss examined the patterns of hundreds of archetypes that exist in human consciousness, and uncovered an alchemy of spirituality we all can use for self-understanding, healing, and divine connection.
On The Language of Archetypes, this three-time New York Times bestselling author brings to life a gallery of archetypes in an 11-CD audio curriculum more than a decade in the making. Her first complete training course about how to identify and work with the eight major archetypal families, this landmark program brings listeners face-to-face with:
- The Four Survival Archetypes everyone is born with—Child, Prostitute, Victim, and Saboteur
- The Royal Family—Queen, King, Damsel, Knight, and others
- The Shadow Family—Thief, Trickster, Addict, and others
When you learn to speak in archetypes, teaches Caroline Myss, you start to see the world and everything in it in an altogether different way. Delivered with masterful storytelling, The Language of Archetypes gives listeners a personal introduction to the many dynamic yet often hidden characters that profoundly impact health, relationships, career—every facet of our sacred destiny.

I found the book Sacred Contracts a little difficult to read - this program makes the whole concept of Archetypes so much clearer.
(Posted on 7/30/2014)
- Review for The Language of Archetypes Review by Martha J Webber
I am happy with this audio download overall but with some minor reservations. I had bought the Sacred Contracts book and wanted something to bring the concepts to life until I had time to actually sit down and really absorb the book. This was on sale so I figured I had little to lose. It was my first time hearing Caroline Myss. I noticed a particular attitude and later saw this referred to negatively in some reviews on another website. Caroline can be somewhat judgemental and a bit pedantic at times, but she takes a conversational approach and I was able to just recognize her human imperfection and listen for the underlying ideas and truths which are plentiful. If you are considering this audio, I suggest you listen first and notice your gut response. If it bothers you, then just get the written material. I liked hearing it come to life.

I highly recommend this to anyone seriously wanting to understand themselves better.

WorldTour is one of those free little apps that turns out to be way more interesting than it should be. The idea behind WorldTour is to give those of us trapped in cubicles or offices a glimpse of the rest of the great big world we only wish we could go visit. WorldTour sets the background of your Android phone to a real-time image from any of several webcams around the world. Say, for example, you love penguins. You simply tell WorldTour to set your background to the Moody Garden penguins in Texas, and it will periodically take an image from a live webcam in the zoo and set it as your phone background. Then, any time you pick up your phone, you can see what those crazy penguins are up to.
One of the best features, though, has to be the ability to set the background to a random webcam. This is just what I did, and throwing data usage to the wind, I told it to update every 10 minutes. I then found myself strangely compelled to check my phone throughout the day to see what things looked like around the world. I saw the Pyramids, The Vatican, the surface of the sun (don't ask me how they got a webcam there), a beach in Australia, and even a random laundromat in China. In the interests of full disclosure, though, I have to say that my wife was not nearly as interested, and informed me of such about the fifth time I interrupted Glee to show her my phone. Don't say I didn't warn you.
Despite how great I think WorldTour is, it does have a few issues. While it has a setting to force the random webcams to only show places where it's daytime, I regularly get pictures of dimly lit monuments and beaches. I also find that I've seen the same webcams several times, while there are others available that have never shown up in my random rotation. And finally, this app desperately needs some way to pick which webcams show up in a random rotation. As it stands now, it's all or nothing. I'm really not overly interested in an updated image of the sun, as it doesn't seem to have any seasons, weather, or visitors.
- It's definitely addictive
- Gives you that fun "I have to check my email again" feeling
- Provides interesting little snapshots of what's going on around the world.
- Can add a user-defined webcam
- Could use up a good amount of data for those on limited data plans
- Still has some bugs
- Your wife or significant other may yell at you
Final Verdict
WorldTour is a fun, free, little ride around the world. Unless you're worried about data usage, give it a try.

On November 9, 1938, the Nazis led a nationwide pogrom against Jews. During the pogrom, known as "Kristallnacht" (the "Night of Broken Glass"), bands of Storm Troopers (SA) destroyed thousands of Jewish-owned businesses and hundreds of synagogues. Almost 100 Jews were killed in the process. This footage shows scenes from a protest rally in New York City. Rabbi Stephen S. Wise voiced the outrage of the American Jewish community. As part of an official protest by the United States government against the violence, President Franklin D. Roosevelt recalled America's ambassador from Germany.

Who wasn't happy to see Willie Mitchell hoist the mug this past June?
In professional hockey, an extremely physical sport played by quasi-armored players who use literal blades for locomotion, injuries are an everyday challenge at any level.
With the exception of the Minnesota Wild, hockey folks (players, coaches, executives and fans) are usually reluctant to use injuries as an excuse for a team's success or failure, but needless to say, an untimely injury can sink a team's fortunes. In the case of the Los Angeles Kings, the reverse is also true, and a team can accrue an extraordinary competitive advantage if they're able to defy the odds and stay healthy.
Read on past the jump.
I found this tidbit from Elliotte Friedman's indispensible Thirty Thoughts column last week particularly interesting, as it touches on a topic I've wanted to write about for some time:
The Kings became the first champion to use only six defencemen the entire playoffs since the 1980 New York Islanders. When you're that healthy and that consistent, you're laughing.
One of those six remarkably healthy Los Angeles Kings defenseman, of course, was ex-Canuck and BC native Willie Mitchell. Willie Mitchell plays a particularly rough-and-tumble style of hockey, he's an old-school "stay-at-home" type: a plodding defenseman who excels because of his veteran savvy and raw physical size and strength. Partly as a result of his style of play, partly as a result of bad luck, and partly because Evgeni Malkin is quietly among the league's dirtiest players, Mitchell has spent a fair amount of time on the shelf during the course of his NHL career.
In his final season in Vancouver, Willie Mitchell missed nearly half of the season with a concussion. It was the latest chapter in the team's storied history of being completely and totally unable to remain healthy along the blueline. That year, the Canucks went into the postseason without Mitchell, then Sami Salo took a Duncan Keith slapper in the testicles (he played the next game, but was rendered relatively immobile), and then Alex Edler went down with an injury in game 6. The 2010 Blackhawks were a juggernaut, but the rash of Canucks blueliner injuries hastened the inevitable as Vancouver lost in six games. By the end of the series, Shane O'Brien was playing top-four minutes.
That summer, the Canucks went out to stack the deck and beat the odds. At the NHL draft, Mike Gillis traded for Keith Ballard, and a week later, he acquired Dan Hamhuis on the open market. Both players in direct contrast with Willie Mitchell, had a remarkable history of durability. Here's the average number of games played in the five previous seasons heading into the 2010-11 campaign:
|Average GP 05-2010
|Dan Hamhuis
|Keith Ballard
|Willie Mitchell
The Canucks made an offer to Willie Mitchell that summer, once he was medically cleared, but by all reports they weren't even in the same ballpark as Dean Lombardi and the Los Angeles Kings who signed Willie Mitchell to a two year deal worth 7 million dollars.
At the time, most sensible folks thought that contract was incredibly risky, they thought that Willie Mitchell no longer "fit" in Vancouver anyway, and that Mike Gillis had made the right call to walk away from the fan-favorite. The Canucks decided to get younger, and hypothetically more durable while pushing the pace with a speedy blue-line: enter Keith Ballard and Dan Hamhuis, exit Willie Mitchell. In retrospect, you'd be hard pressed to find anyone who'd rather pay Keith Ballard (4.2 million per season) than Willie Mitchell (3.5 million).
Beyond their durability, Dan Hamhuis and Keith Ballard have something else in common that seperates them from Willie Mitchell: high-end skating ability. Willie Mitchell has a good deal of useful skills, but his speed and offensive ability are sub-average for a top-4 NHL defenseman. Yes, Mitchell played second unit power-play minutes for the Kings this past season, but the Kings power-play was atrocious and Mitchell hit a career high in points with 24. Prior to arriving in Vancouver, Ballard had averaged roughly 30 points per season over the five seasons previous.
Unfortunately, the best laid plans of mice and GMs often go awry. The case of choosing Keith Ballard over Willie Mitchell is, without question, a perfect example. As a team, the Canucks improved by the underlying numbers after Willie Mitchell went out with his injury in 2009-10. With the Sedins beginning to produce at a super-elite level, the team became more "offense oriented" than the low-scoring Alain Vigneault teams that preceded the Mike Gillis era, and on which Willie Mitchell was a key lynchpin. Factor in Willie Mitchell's concussion struggles, and allowing him to walk in favour of Keith Ballard – a plus-plus skater who had faced tough competition and put up points consistently in his career – was a no brainer.
It was a "no brainer" that didn't work out, to put it mildly. In 2010-11, Willie Mitchell gave the Kings what most expected: he was troubled by injuries, only dressed for 57 games and projected as an excellent depth defender, and reasonably solid top-four guy. Keith Ballard, however, was a disaster in Vancouver. His inability to play the right side meant he never really found a home in the top-4, and he was ultimately passed on the depth chart by all of: Aaron Rome, Chris Tanev and Andrew Alberts. When Dan Hamhuis went down with a groin inury in game one of the Stanley Cup Final, Alain Vigneault turned to Rome. When Rome was suspended, Keith Ballard finally got his chance, but he misplayed a puck behind the net in Vancouver's end in the second period, the Bruins scored on the play and Ballard wasn't seen on the ice again in the series. Think Willie Mitchell may have done better?
This past season, Keith Ballard – the younger man with the history of being durable – missed much of the season with a concussion, while Willie Mitchell, who was thought to be "finished" and had managed to play only two full seasons in his entire career previously: suited up for 96 games including playoffs. Needless to say, he played some excellent defensive hockey and was a critical contributor in a top-four role on a Stanley Cup winning team.
Billy Beane, the General Manager of the Oakland A's spoke at a Yahoo! event this past March and suggested that, "teams staying healthy represent the new undervalued asset in the industry." Quoth Beane: "Health is the No. 1 indicator of success, and nobody's really solved it yet. When somebody really gets their arms around that, it's going to have a major impact."
Until someone does figure that out, the closest you're going to get is being damn lucky. The Kings were, both with Willie Mitchell, and the all around health of their blueline this past Spring. The Canucks on the other hand, have seemingly been unable to ever catch a break on this score, despite all their analytical work on fatigue.
"Upgrading" from Willie Mitchell to Keith Ballard was absolutely the right decision based on the available evidence at the time, but it backfired in a big way. Not only has Willie Mitchell significantly outperformed Ballard over the past two seasons, but Michael Grabner (part of the price Gillis paid to acquire Ballard) has evolved into a legitimate top-line scorer. Bad luck is a cruel mistress.

After just nine days on the air at WDST, the 'Wolf' is gone.
Shock jock Bob Wohlfeld's show, "Walkin' Up With The Wolf," which started its Radio Woodstock run on Jan. 7, has officially ended, the radio station announced on its Facebook page late Thursday.
"Thank you so much for your feedback about our new morning show with The Wolf. We decided that we need to listen to all of you, so we have officially ended Wakin' Up With The Wolf," wrote Gary Chetkof, president and owner of the radion station.
"We are humbled by your passion for what Radio Woodstock stands for and we are committed to remain true to those ideals ... and to stand by our slogan 'It's About the Music,'" Chetkof added.
The post contains more than 150 comments, mostly in support of the move.
On "The Wakin Up with the Wolf Fan Page" on Facebook, Wohlfeld wrote, "Gary the station owner and I both agreed I was not a good fit. My style of humor and the things I do best were not going to work with what WDST is known for. It was a very friendly parting and I hope to work with Gary on some other projects in the future. I want to thank Jimmy Buff, Stan, Ike and everyone at DST you guys were so great. I will post more information on where i'm going to be next ASAP. So exciting stuff coming up."
Greg Gattine replaced Wohlfeld on Friday.
The Freeman's Friday print edition published a story about the show. The story was printed before the new developments.

Walgreen's sales metric beats estimates
Deerfield-based Walgreen said Wednesday that a key sales measurement posted a solid gain in January.
The nation's biggest drugstore operator said sales at stores open at least a year grew 2.9 percent for the month, mostly because revenue from pharmacy departments improved. At stores open at least one year, pharmacy revenue rose 3.7 percent and sales of non-pharmacy items sold at the front of its stores increased 1.6 percent.
Analysts surveyed by Thomson Reuters expected combined growth of 1.7 percent.
The metric is viewed as an important measurement of retailer health. It excludes potentially distorting results from stores that have opened or closed within the last year.
Walgreen says it has given more than 7.5 million flu shots at pharmacies and clinics so far this season, up from 6.9 million a year ago.
The company said its total sales grew 3.7 percent to $6.39 billion in January. Pharmacy revenue rose 4.6 percent and front-end sales grew 2.4 percent. Walgreen said customer traffic decreased, but shoppers spent more money.
Walgreen Co. had 8,678 drugstores as of Jan. 31. The company has locations in 50 states, Washington DC, Puerto Rico, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
The results come as its rival CVS Caremark announced it will quit selling tobacco products at its more than 7,600 drugstores nationwide by Oct. 1 as it focuses on providing health care.
CVS said Wednesday that it will phase out cigarettes, cigars and chewing tobacco, a move that will cost about $2 billion in annual revenue but won't affect its 2014 earnings forecast. CVS Caremark leaders say removing tobacco will help them grow the company's business of working with doctors, hospitals and other care providers to improve customers' health.

Y'all probably don't remember me, but a few months ago I posted about how I had finally taken the plunge and bought a Crown Graphic and was excited to learn how to use it. Well, it's taken me this long to finally buy some film (Tmax 100) and I am stumped at how to load it. I am currently taking a beginner b&w course at a local college and I could ask for help from my prof (he's mainly 35mm) but I'd like to wow him and myself and do it on my own this weekend.
I've done a search on the board and googled my question, but everything I'm getting is still too advanced for me. Even Paul Butzi's site, as awesome as it is, it too confusing for me. If someone would be willing to give me step by step, idiot-proof instructions, I would be forever grateful.
I think I have two film loaders. One says "Graphic Film Pack Adapter" and the other just says 'Riteway" and is much thinner. I am completely lost. Thanks for any help you can give someone just starting out.

Photography Weekly Header created by TouchedD
"Take Only Photographs, Leave Only Footprints." - Urban Explorers Creed
Sometimes it's easy to forget the things around us that were once iconic and useful. In everyday life that could include a multitude of household objects, bits and bobs, clothes, gadgets - all sorts. But in Photography - a specific aspect of Photography - people close doors and board up buildings sometimes with little or no notice. They erect a fence around that old asylum and ship everything out or they install security guards at the boundaries of an army camp. Those places get forgotten and one day there will be nobody left that will remember them. That's where Urban Exploration comes in.
I'm not telling you to go out and scale the wall of your nearest derelict hospital in the name of photography. It takes a certain kind of person (and agility!) to do that anyway, but there are many depths to Urban Exploration some which are misunderstood or overlooked. You can get those shots without trespassing, breaking in, or doing damage. In fact one of the biggest rules of the urban explorer is as I quoted above - Take only photographs, leave only footprints. The idea is to capture for the sense of preservation.
A year or so ago I would never have dreamt that I would be wandering around an abandoned hospital with my camera, finding beauty in rotten decaying things. I never thought I would be crawling around in an abandoned army camp or standing on the edge of a cliff on the Isle of Wight taking photographs of a house that was falling into the sea. If you'd asked me a year ago, if I would even consider walking down a landslip with camera in tow - I'd have laughed. manically
The point is, lots of things are there for the shooting - you don't have to take risks or put yourself in danger to be an urban explorer . In Hampshire UK, where I live - many places are so accessible you can pull up in your car, jump out and shoot something amazing... At the bottom of this article you'll find some useful links to take you to urbex forums in your country (mostly) and some awesome resources!
Some of you might not be aware that you can suggest Urban Exploration pieces for Daily Deviations - send them to fritsenator You can also upload your own to the gallery found Here!

As we were expecting, CES 2013 is the year 5-inch 1080p displays take center stage on all major smartphone announcements. The new ZTE Grand S comes equipped with a 1.7GHz quad-core Snapdragon S4 processor, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of internal storage, 13 megapixel rear-camera, LTE and NFC all wrapped up in a 142 x 69 x 6.9mm body. Unlike some of the other devices from Chinese OEMs we've seen at CES this year, ZTE has chosen a design for the Grand S that won't easily be confused with other devices currently on the market.
The ZTE Grand S is scheduled to hit the Chinese market in Q1 of 2013, but we've heard rumors that the phone could show up in Europe and other Asian countries in Q2. ZTE doesn't have a very good track record when it comes to bringing devices to the US market, but we wouldn't be surprised if a variant of the ZTE Grand S showed up on this side of the Atlantic sometime this year.
