A walkie-talkie is a portable bi-directional radio transceiver that allows for wireless, short-range two-way communication via radio wave signals. The range power of a walkie-talkie is primarily determined by three factors: the power of the walkie-talkie's transmitter, the power of its antenna and the environmental conditions in which the walkie-talkie is used. Environmental factors such as hills, mountains, valleys, canyons, curves and structures that block the line of sight of the walkie-talkie's radio signal impact its range. The FCC has strict rules against physically modifying FRS and GMRS walkie-talkies to increase range. You can, however, use environmental conditions to your advantage to improve range.
Video of the Day
Install fresh batteries in the walkie-talkie to ensure that it is receiving maximum power.
Move away from large structures that can obstruct your radio signal such as buildings, trees and so forth. If you are indoors, move closer to a window. By moving away from these obstructions, you improve the environmental conditions through which the walkie-talkie's radio signal travels. When the signal has a clearer line of site, it can travel farther.
Go to higher ground. This will give the walkie-talkie greater range because the higher your ground the fewer the obstructions that lie in the path of the radio signal. Also simply holding the walkie-talkie above your head can sometimes improve the signal range for the same reason.
Use the walkie-talkie in moist weather conditions such as rain, sleet, snow and fog and in muddy or marshy terrain. Such conditions tend to increase the radio signal range. Radio signals do not travel as far in arid conditions. Because of this, using the walkie-talkie at night (when conditions are less arid) also tends to improve its signal range.
Look for elements in the environment that can serve as conducting guides for the walkie-talkie's radio signal, such as railroad tracks, wayside wires and suitable contours in the terrain. Position yourself in front of these guides when broadcasting a transmission. The signal will travel farther.

FIRST LOOK: Yong Pal, starring Kim Tae Hee and Joo Won
Yong Pal, the thrilling new melodrama starring Kim Tae Hee and Joo Won, has released its stylish first teaser, an intriguing poster, and some character stills. Take a look!
Yong Pal tells the story of Han Yeo Jin, an heiress who wakes from a coma after an accident caused by her half-brother (Jo Hyun Jae). In the hospital, she meets Kim Tae Hyun (Joo Won), a talented surgeon who moonlights as "Yong Pal," a mysterious doctor to the rich and famous.
In the eye-catching first poster, we see Kim Tae Hee's face reflected in the scalpel, while the names of the series cast and crew members form Joo Won's face.
Character stills:
Kim Tae Hee as the heiress Han Yeo Jin
Joo Won as surgeon Kim Tae Hyun, also known as Yong Pal
Jo Hyun Jae as Han Do Joon, Han Yeo Jin's half-brother who wants to take control of the family company from his sister.
Chae Jung Ahn as Lee Chae Young, Do Joon's wife who appears to be sweet, but who also knows more than she shows.
The initial teaser is gorgeous, but it doesn't tell us much about the plot. At least we know Kim Tae Hee and Joo Won look pretty together (not that there was ever any doubt)!
What do you think of the poster and teaser? Are you excited for this series? Yong Pal will premiere on August 5, following the conclusion of Mask. Sign up for new episode alerts HERE!

Got a taste of this Choco Pao. I thought that the choco filling would be small on this. I mean, it's only P29 so I didn't expect much. But it was surprisingly good! The choco filling wasn't too sweet that it paired well with the whole pao.

Restored 06 April 2017, originally published 16 March, 2015
Once in a while, a band with staying power comes around. What is it that gives staying power? A few things come to mind: quality, variation, and perhaps most important, consistency. But for 10 years? Is this enough to keep an artist going for a decade and beyond? Maybe more is needed, maybe command of time itself. It may seem far-fetched, but there's at least one artist that exudes all these qualities, possibly even dominion over the fabric of time. That artist is Chronos.
Not to be confused with Cronus, the Titan father of Zeus, Chronos is sometimes thought of as Father Time, one of our universe's transcendent entities.
Getting back to Chronos the band, they're a five-piece Russian act headed by Mr. Nick Klimenko, himself an accomplished composer and sound engineer. The rest of the band's cast (according to Chronos' official site LINK TO PAGE) includes Alexey Ansheles on guitars, Galina Schetinina on cello, Maria Lazareva on violin, and Maria Karimova providing vocals. They've been around since 2004. In that time they've released 7 full-length albums with a myriad of other EPs and remixes, not including two releases that I will discuss in this review. Over the past decade, they've been a part of at least a dozen different record labels, among them Altar, Beats & Pieces, and Cosmicleaf. And Chronos has collaborated with the likes of Aes Dana, Shulman, and Koan, some of the biggest in the ambient/chill out scene.
Clearly, we're not discussing mere mortals. These men and women have elevated their craft beyond the mundane and into the realm of the exceptional. In terms of genre, there is no box big enough to capture their sound. From chill out and ethnic electronica to downtempo, psybient, ambient, trip-hop, space music, and IDM, their albums contain a little bit of everything, or a lot if you consider their entire catalogue. It is from that catalogue that Chronos has assembled a three-part anthology, a celebration of their tenure on Earth thus far, which is to be released for free on Mystic Sound Records.
The first part, Spiritus, was released the 6th of November, 2014. It consists of ten tracks which exude "soft rhythms, ambient atmospheres, and delicate melodies" all backed and magnified by a plethora of live instrumentation.
The new listener will surely enjoy the likes of "Mystery Of Time". At nearly ten minutes in length, "Mystery Of Time" is more than enough to get the gist of the mystical side of Chronos. A deep, reverberating hum opens the track, before tribal flutes and string instruments join in. The ebb and flow of time makes itself felt with the introduction of bells, percussion, and chanting. Around the 3-minute mark, the track's pace quickens with a soft melody and the percussion's steadily increasing intensity. Just before the half-way point, we ascend into the heavens with whooshing stars and echoing timbres, and before long we move into IDM territory. The music's stereo quality is highly evident in headphones so I do recommend listening with them, but you certainly won't miss too much from the experience with set of room speakers. The track's intensity increases until the final minute of the track when it fades, leaving room for a quieter melody to carry the track to completion.
The second part, just released February 25, 2015, is called Technologia. As you might guess, Technologia emphasizes the digital aspect of Chronos' work. From Technologia, I suppose I would choose "Planetarium (Aquarius Edit)" to showcase. Once again, we open with a hum, but this one is distinctly more digital and is surrounded by a rotating element. Contrasting pitch and tone is important throughout the track. We hear squeaks and squiggles, bubbling and bursting, throbbing and pounding. A descending xylophone introduces a heavy synth that leads into something of a cosmic cavern filled with harmonic ghosts and unfamiliar apparitions. There's dripping water, whistling insects, and driving melodies, all of which builds to a point of almost overwhelming intensity before pulling back just to keep us conscious enough to enjoy the fade out.
Maybe I should have waited for the final album to be released, but I felt these were too good to go unmentioned, especially if we can expect another several months to pass before the final installment.
Update 06 April, 2017
Since this article's original publication, Chronos completed the trilogy with the release of Animo on 01 September, 2015. Animo exemplifies the core of Chronos in a dozen remastered and remixed tracks released over the course of Chronos' career. As with the rest of their catalogue, expect expansive, cinematic soundscapes that seem to grow out of Silence itself. Synthetic meets organic in pulsing beats, soaring rhythms, and a thousand tiny details that brighten the experience like fireflies in the night.
One of the more outstanding tracks is "Time Keeper". You don't know it yet, but "Time Keeper" is a quest. You begin at sea, wandering among the waves, stumbling to shore. In the distance, you see a great mountain, tall and inviting, and from the mountain you hear a terrific voice, an enigmatic flute, and myriad bells and chimes. Before you realize it, you've been swept away toward the mountain, bourn by a celestial force that wraps you up inside and out and drives you on. At the slopes of the mountain, you're carried by a synth rhythm up and up and up… When you awake, you find yourself high in the mountain where you come face to face with the Time Keeper himself. He tells you, "The only limit in your life is your mind."
The Time Keeper goes on his way, leaving you with this thought, played off by a sitar, digeridoo, and synthesizers.
As an aside, I put some thought into that sentiment, "The only limit in your life is your mind." My first thought was this implied my life is limited by the extent of my imagination. And I thought that was interesting, if cliché. But I kept thinking and realized that's not what it means at all. It means your mind itself limits you. The implications of that are far reaching, and nothing if not controversial. To me it means relying on my conscious mind to tell me everything about the Universe around me is what limits me. Not that I should never use it, just that I shouldn't rely on it entirely.
Ultimately, Chronos produced a spectacular collection of their best work and gave it away for free. You'd be a fool not to experience it yourself.

Keys to library lockers are checked out on a first-come, first-served basis and therefore cannot be "reserved". The best way to ensure that you are able to acquire a library locker is by coming as soon as possible to the library's circulation desk (on the 3rd [main] floor) to check one out. The loan period for lockers is one term, with three online renewals permitted. Please see the link below for more borrowing policy information for Trinity students. Thank you!

Scum of the earth.
I wouldn't call this a new low. This is exactly what I expected of him. He's quite predicable.
Indeed, this is the kind of crap conspiracy idiots shout all the time. Something tragic and unsual happens? "DA GOVAMANT STAGED DIS TO DISTRACT US FROM SOMETHING ELSE" how exactly that logic works regarding super villains plans is beyond me.
Nothing actually ever happens.
It would shock the hell out of me if Alex Jones were to say that a shooting spree was just an isolated incident, by a random crazy.
Chocolate Jesus
Why is Alex wearing a shirt?
This is the man who brought the world the "Obama in Joker Makeup" meme, obviously he had a gimmick prepared for this, it was sidetracked, and he's pissed.
Why is he in a cubicle?
John Holmes Motherfucker
This man does not understand the concept of "evidence".
"All the signs point to this being a government conspiracy. What are the signs? There is some guns legislation in being talked about and I can fudge that into a motive."
Does Alex Jones at least get into corporation conspiracy theories as well?
10 The government is always evil.
20 Run diagnosis:
30 Detect object(=government/evil)
40 Goto 10
It's not just government, Jones is an equal opportunity conspiracist. He'll incorporate corporations and banks and Wall St. into his theories. He yells about Monsanto and Goldman Sachs almost as much as Obama and the UN.
When you need constant content and fear there's little reason to not go into anything you can.
Note the Monopoly and Risk game boxes in the background. Together, you can play "Alex Jones: The Home Game."
Rodents of Unusual Size
Not that there's anything wrong with yelling at corporations and hating them. But when he brings up his ideas that they all literally worship the Antichrist um yeah you're not helping, Alex.
MacGyver Style Bomb
Around 2000 or so, I was hosting presentations on Machinima at a local science fiction convention. Now I was scheduled to go on after the presentation of the local conspiracy nut, who went well into my time going on about insane bullshit like the Philadelphia Experiment, mind control rays and so on. This was bad enough, but then he concluded on the notion that mind control was being used to cause school shootings so that the government can take away everyone's guns and then put their evil plans into motion.
People exploiting school shootings is something that really offends me on a personal level. Having to listen to this crazy bastard tie his delusions into that was the last straw and from that point on I've despised conspiracy theorists for just this kind of vile bullshit.
Caminante Nocturno
He is such an aggressive liar.
America responds to tragedy the same way a group of toddlers responds to a cereal box of colored sugar rings suddenly turning up empty.
My gods, you're right.
Sort of saw this coming from a mile away.
I'm so tired of hearing this fucking shit. If the last dozen or so times that a bunch of innocent people were murdered by some fucking psycho who was allowed to stockpile weapons legally never resulted in any new gun legislation, why would this time be different?
Do these stupid fucks have any idea how many people have died at the hands of legally purchased weapons on a per-year basis and yet we have changed virtually NOTHING about gun laws in the US? When Reagan got shot at (the fucking PRESIDENT OF THE US) it took years of legal fighting just to get a fucking law passed that said "hey, maybe there should be a few days waiting period to get a gun" and even THAT has barely stuck and people still piss and moan about it like little babies. The US has the most lenient gun laws in the entire world and roomfuls of dead people will NEVER change that.
Gun owners: shut the fuck up. No one in this country will ever, EVER be able to enact any sort of sane legislation regarding the control of guns. Ever. It will never happen. This country's dick is so firmly glued to the barrel of a fucking gun, we will never, ever have any sort of meaningful gun control. So, don't worry...your sociopathic hobby is totally safe.
I agree with all of this, but I'm also very concerned as to why just some dude was able to buy a full suit of body armor? Like you can't even attempt to make a 2nd amendment argument here.
It's not so much buying the body armor, since he could very well have been preparing a hilarious backyard stunt for YouTube involving fireworks or perhaps a giant slingshot and some bowling balls.
It's the fact that Barnes & Noble can track every book I buy from their store and hand that info over to the NSA, but no alarm bells go off when someone buys armor AND some guns as if they might be PREPARING for something where bullets might be exchanged in a manner that could be labeled as "peevish."
Hell, I bet if you started up the shooter's browser, you'd see Google ads for buying your own APC and enlisting in whatever Blackwater is calling itself these days.
Rodents of Unusual Size
Is everything part of some master plan? Is no one capable of free will and doing incredibly evil things without coercion?
I hate Alex Jones so much.
I had left over spaghetti for breakfast. All part of the illuminatti's master plan.
That spaghetti was laced with Scopolamine, AKA The Devil's Pasta.

In the current debate on immigration policy, we see two opposing views toward new arrivals — some are welcoming, some want to seal the borders and keep them out. Were immigrants always treated with ambivalence, with one arm open?
My study of an Italian religious community in Hartford suggests they were. I recently read dozens of articles from a century ago printed in The Courant and elsewhere regarding the Italian Congregational Church of Hartford, an immigrant Protestant congregation that existed in the city from 1903 to 1976.
Though the Catholic Church is indisputably dominant in Italy, there is a long history of a Protestant minority there. Did the small number of Italian Protestant immigrants have an easier time fitting into American society at a time period when many proclaimed America a distinctly Protestant country?
Historically, the Congregational Church was the church of authority in Connecticut (until 1818 the official state religion), and many of the leaders of the Connecticut church in the time of mass immigration were involved in mission work and state politics. Leading native Connecticut citizens, such as the Rev. Joseph Twichell (Mark Twain's pastor at the Asylum Hill Congregational Church) and the Rev. Joel Ives, were involved with the Hartford Italian Congregational Church. The latter said in 1905: "The freedom of the Congregational way appeals to the Italian."
Ives reasoned that "If it is good for the Yankee, it is good for the Italian" and vice-versa. Ives believed that traditional Connecticut needed the immigrant for its survival. He told his fellow Congregationalists: "Connecticut has not been unmindful of her opportunity" and "realizes that every Protestant enterprise must look to the alien for its maintenance and defense in the immediate future. The inbred Yankee is fast becoming a rarity."
But not all Protestant leaders shared Ives' progressive view; indeed many believed that the Italian immigrants posed many problems for Connecticut. They were too Catholic and too illiterate and some were anarchists, Mafiosi or socialists — or so the current belief had it. During his keynote address at the Bushnell for Connecticut's tercentenary celebration in 1935, Yale President James Angell depicted immigrants as blight upon a state that had moved too far from its Puritan roots. He noted, "There have been very large invasions of foreign stock, to whom the traditional ideals of the Puritan are wholly alien."
Or not.
One writer for The Courant noted that in 1915 Hartford had "12,000 people of Italian birth or descent" and while there were "no Michel Angelos or Da Vincis in Hartford," the "ability and industry" of the Italian population "made them a very valuable part of the city's life." The Italian "assimilates American ideas and customs," this reporter claimed. City Alderman Olcott B. Colton told an audience at Asylum Hill Congregational Church that Italian immigrants were cooperative and not set in their ways and therefore they could be American citizens and the Congregational Church would be central to such Americanization work. "They are here to stay," Colton believed, according to The Courant, "and we must make Americans of them."
The Italian church itself was not specifically trying to create Americans, but a new individual, an Italian-American. For example, The Courant frequently reported on special occasions at this Hartford immigrant church: celebrations for the Fourth of July, but also for Sept. 20 (Italian unification day) and Columbus Day. Hymns would be sung in Italian and English and classes were offered in both Italian and English.
This congregation, like many other immigrant churches, passed through stages — of establishment, the struggle to sustain themselves, institutionalization and finally to a gradual fading away due to social and geographical mobility and the curtailment of immigration from Italy. The story of the Hartford Italian Congregational Church might also warn us not to replace the Italian-phobia of 1915 with an Islamic-phobia in 2015, nor treat today's Hispanic and Asian immigrants as anti-Puritans who must be returned to sender.

I wanted to inform you ahead of time that Williamson County will be placing a 4-way stop at the intersection of Sun Chase and Autumn Fire. This decision was based off an engineering traffic study in accordance with the Texas Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. We estimate stop sign installation the week of January 21st.
The installation schedule is below:
Week of the 7th: You will see static signs placed on all approaches to the intersection stating the proposed changes;
Week of the 14th: The static signs will be removed and large message boards will be placed on Sun Chase to alert traffic to a new stop condition coming;
The week of the 21st: You will see the stop poles installed a few days prior to the stop signed being placed. Message boards will be updated to "STOP AHEAD"
The week of the 28th: Message boards removed
Williamson County will continue to study the intersection in the months following the 4-way stop installation.
Let me know if you have any questions,

LYONS, France -- Maybe Greg LeMond was right when he said all he needed to turn his season around was some hot weather.
Finding temperatures in the 80s and 90s in Lyons for the start of the Tour de France, LeMond finished part of his weekend's work in a familiar garment: the yellow jersey of the leader of the world's greatest bicycle race.
He wore it yesterday and later lost it -- the hard way.
On Saturday, LeMond had finished third in the prologue to the Tour. But in the first of two stages yesterday he helped drive a breakaway by 11 riders, briefly gaining the jersey. Eight of the 11 cyclists gained 1 minute 44 seconds over the rest of the 198-man field.

Developer: EA Canada
Category: Sports
Release Date 09/26/2006
This year
will play as good as it looks with gameplay advancements that build upon the depth and authenticity that the NBA LIVE franchise has delivered for more than a decade. Powered by next generation technology that EA showcased at Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3), NBA LIVE 07 will introduce the next generation of basketball gameplay with EA SPORTS™ Total Freestyle Control, a new feature that gives users more control over athletes than they ever imagined. By introducing a ground-breaking next generation AI system that is both intuitive and intelligent, combined with advancements to fan-favorite features like All-Star Weekend and Dynasty Mode™, NBA LIVE 07 will continue to deliver its award-winning gameplay experience to fans worldwide.
If you're in the market for an NBA game on the PC, NBA Live 07 is your only choice. Unfortunately, it's not a very good choice. There aren't any noteworthy new features; the visuals are the same as last year, and the gameplay is riddled with bugs and glitches. Live 07 seems as though it were rushed out the door, and it's an all-around disappointing game.
The slam-dunk contest is one of the game's highlights.
All of the game modes from Live 06 return. You can choose from quick play, season, dynasty mode, playoffs, all-star weekend, freestyle challenge, one-on-one, practice, and slam-dunk school. The NBA all-star weekend includes the rookie challenges, three-point shoot-out, slam-dunk contest, and, of course, the all-star game. The dunk contest is easily the highlight of the weekend mode due to its depth and the large number of great-looking dunks you can perform. The freestyle challenge lets you take on friends in the slam-dunk contest or three-point shoot-out.
Dynasty mode places you in the role of general manager for the team of your choice. After hiring an assistant coach, an assistant, a trainer, and a scout, it's off to training camp where you set your team's training priorities. Over the course of a season, you can use your staff in a number of ways. Assistant coaches can research rumors and schedule team events, assistants work with players to improve their skills, trainers help players heal faster, and scouts can evaluate talent year-round in preparation for the draft. In addition to monitoring players' happiness and overall team chemistry, you'll need to keep an eye on their fatigue levels to make sure they don't get too worn out over the course of the season. If you're looking to improve your team via a trade, you can do so. Another way to better your squad is through the draft--a process made easier if you keep your scouts busy during the year. Your team can still perform well if you don't keep your staff occupied every day, but putting in the work will yield tangible results.
Last year, EA wanted to highlight the difference between the great players and the average Joe by introducing the concept of superstar players, and it has expanded the concept this year. Each star player is designated as having one or more superstar abilities--high flyer (great dunks), scorer (athletic layups), playmaker (fancy passes), post (power dunks), and shooter (variety of jumpers). Strong defensive players are designated as inside or outside stoppers and have a wider array of defensive moves available. The best of the best are designated as "superstars" and have flashier moves than regular stars. Freestyle moves are performed by holding down the freestyle move button and a face button. The moves are easy enough, and while some are more useful than others, they add a lot of variety and pizzazz to the game. Changing players' abilities can be done on the fly, but you'll rarely need to do so.
Players with a knack for stepping up in big spots, like Robert Horry, are now designated as "x-factors." If you use an x-factor enough during a game, he'll heat up and earn temporary superstar abilities. This works as advertised, but it's not very useful. If you're in a close game, you've got more important tasks to worry about than making sure Ben Gordon gets his touches.
If you're thinking about playing Live 07 with a keyboard, forget it, because it's near impossible. You'll need a controller with two analog sticks to get the most out of the game. The basic controls are easy to learn, and freestyle control, which is mapped to the right analog stick, feels great. It's simple to use the stick to perform advanced ballhandling moves, and it's just as intuitive when turning a normal jumper into a fadeaway or stealing the ball. Touch passes are another new feature, but they don't add much to the package since they're rarely needed. Dunks and layups are now mapped to separate buttons. This is supposed to add a risk/reward element to your shot selection, but the concept is poorly executed since it's difficult to figure out if you'll be able to make a dunk before you commit. If you elect to dunk and your player isn't going to make it, he'll either switch to a layup or clank it off the rim, making the option pointless. Hop steps are one of the better changes to the control scheme and are easily performed by pressing up on the right analog stick. Free throws are shot by pulling down and then pushing up on the right analog stick. The new mechanic works OK, but the old system was fine, so this change seems superfluous.
The visuals haven't changed much from last year.
You might think that NBA Live 07 is significantly more difficult than Live 06, but that isn't the case since they just bumped up the default difficulty to all-star. Teams are supposed to run more realistic offenses this year, but if they are, the difference is tough to see. The action feels as fast as ever, with most teams hustling down the court for fast-break buckets. The teams that don't fast-break won't waste any time getting shots off quickly. Offensive players run the same exact pattern on every break, never cutting to the hoop when you need them to. For the most part, players don't work very hard to get open in the half-court offense, and they tend to be content to just stand around. Should you want to run a specific play, you can call one via the D pad. Defensively, the CPU is aggressive, rotating quickly, fighting through picks, and double-teaming often. You will notice players winding up out of bounds for no particular reason, and there are an inordinate number of offensive foul calls.
NBA Live 07 comes apart because of the numerous glitches and bugs found throughout the game. Regardless of how tired players are, the CPU won't substitute them out; certain players that should be able to dunk (like Rasheed Wallace) can't throw one down to save their lives; free-throw controls periodically reverse; and direct passing is a mess. Though it's near impossible to play with a keyboard, very few brands of controllers are supported, and it's a cumbersome process trying to get one to work. We also had difficulties installing the game--we finally got it to run on the third PC we tried. To top things off, the game also crashed to the desktop on several occasions.
Online play includes ranked and unranked matches, as well as one-on-one, slam-dunk contest, and the three-point shoot-out. As is typical with online-enabled EA games, the initial sign-in process is cumbersome, but once you're logged in you'll find that the menus are easy to navigate. On the rare occasion that you manage to get a good connection to another player, the game runs well enough, but lag is frequently a problem and makes events like the three-point shoot-out and slam-dunk contest rather frustrating.
Other than some slight tweaks here and there, the game looks identical to last year's NBA Live, which means the visuals are starting to show their age. The frame rate isn't horrible, but it does struggle to keep up on fast breaks and when the paint gets crowded. It's tough to say that players' faces look realistic, since they have inordinately large heads, but if you ignore the odd scaling, you'll have no problem recognizing players. For the most part, players will turn their heads in the general direction of the action, but you'll often find their blank stares set in the opposite direction, and they tend to warp from one animation to the next. Clipping issues--such as a player's arm passing through another's or the ball going directly through someone's chest--are rampant throughout the game. In fact, players constantly grab rebounds or dunk by reaching through the glass. The arenas are faithfully replicated (other than the Raptors' home court), and the animated crowds look good.
There's very little ESPN content in the actual game, but if you're online you can get updated scores and information from the ESPN ticker that runs across the screen, and you can read news pages in the online lobby. The ESPN Radio SportsCenter feature that all of the other versions of Live 07 have is nowhere to be found here.
The right analog stick is used to shoot free throws.
One area in which NBA Live excels is its commentary. Marv Albert does the play-by-play, and player-turned-announcer Steve Kerr provides color commentary. The two have great chemistry together in real life, and this comes across in the video game in the off-the-cuff remarks and banter between the two. Ernie Johnson is joined by Greg Anthony for the all-star weekend, which means after a weak dunk you'll get to hear Anthony say off-the-wall cracks like "I'd rather watch girls dunk on an eight-foot rim." NBA Live 07's soundtrack is vastly improved over last year's. The well-rounded soundtrack includes a wide variety of artists from around the world, including Sergio Mendes & The Black Eyed Peas, Gnarls Barkley, Jurassic 5 featuring Dave Matthews, Rhymefest, Lady Sovereign, and Talib Kweli.
The best things you can say about NBA Live 07 are that it sounds great and that the slam-dunk contest is entertaining. There are lots of different play modes, but all of the options in the world are worthless when the gameplay has so many problems. If you simply must pick up a copy of NBA Live this year, the PlayStation 2 and Xbox versions are by far your best bets--the PC version is inferior to them in every way.

Does this mean, since I stand all day on my job, that my head is older or younger than my feet?
It does seem as though this whole thing is being based upon the differences in distance from the earth's surface.
Should I stand on my head when not at work, to let things even out?
I dont think that was done

I did not see in the article if they tried the other clock elevated as well and go the same exact differential.
I mean two clocks, raise one check the difference, lower them to same level, verify both are accurately presenting no difference and then elevate the other and note that the same difference is observed.
Do you know if that was done?
Thats all well and good but their conclusions are wrong

Actually, you didn't show it wrong. You used your opinion to explain why you think it's wrong. And in doing so, you've got yourself proven wrong.
What things mate?
Also, if GR was wrong, we would have so many things that didn't work, it would be obvious it was wrong.

Get swingin' with our fun swing dance class! We teach two styles of swing dancing and they are both very easy to learn.
Jitterbug swing or East Coast Swing is typically more lively and energetic and is great for dancing to high energy big band music. West Coast Swing is generally a little slower, more formal swing style and West Coast Swing dancers often stay within a specific rectangular slot on the dance floor. While East Coast Swing is more jumpy and energetic, West Coast Swing is more sensual and elegant.
No partner or prior dance experience necessary.
Don't miss our Hustle class on Tuesdays starting at 8:30 pm. What is the Hustle? In the early 1970's a new partner dance called the "Hustle" became popular on the crowded dance floors of New York. The Hustle is a fun couples dance with smooth spins, turns and wraps along with elaborate arm styling. It's smooth, it's elegant and it's A LOT OF FUN!
If you haven't danced the Hustle why not try a class? No partner required. I hope to see you there!

Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire Tap Dance in the Barkleys of Broadway
Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers were iconic dance partners well known for their graceful ballroom dancing as top box office names over their productive Hollywood career. Whats even more amazing is that they were also amazingly versatile tap dancers as this clip from the 1949 movie the Barkleys of Broadway illustrates so well.
The Barkleys of Broadway tells the tale of a musical comedy team at the peak of their careers, something which they both experienced together with their own rise to stardom. Many feel that this quality of true life makes this movie one of their greatest films together. Sadly, this was their last movie dancing together. But perhaps we should just be happy that this bit of magic was captured at all – the part was originally supposed to go to Judy Garland!
Lullaby of Broadway, 1935
Well known for his fantastic geometric dance pattern choreography, in 1935 Busby Berkeley directed his finest effort with Gold Diggers of 1935. Filmed during the high point of tap dancing, many consider his tap dance number "Lullaby of Broadway" to be the most memorable tap dance sequence ever filmed.
The Nicholas Brothers in Stormy Weather
Fayard and Harold Nicholas, better known as the "Nicholas Brothers", were a phenomenal pair of tap dancers who performed in the legendary "Cotton Club" in Harlem and later went on to teach dancing to superstars such as Michael and Janet Jackson among many others.
This clip is from the wonderful picture "Stormy Weather" filmed in 1943 and features the great Cab Calloway and his Cotton Club Orchestra. The film also featured another tap dance legend Bill "Bojangles" Robinson as well as Fats Waller and Lena Horne.
If you listen closely, you will be amazed at the synchronicity and unison of their tap dancing. This tap dancing number is so famous that Fred Astaire called this performance "the greatest dance number ever filmed" and Mikhail Baryshnikov said, "Those guys are perfect examples of pure genius."
Here are some pictures and videos from our inaugural Tap Jam! This was a special tap dancing event with Steve Zee, Carol Zee, and Deborah Perez focused on playing with rhythm.
Thank you to all that joined us this March 18, 2018. We will continue to have these throughout the year! If you missed, join us for the next one!

We are so proud of our ballroom dancers who attended the world famous Blackpool Ballroom Dance Competition in Blackpool England this year. It was truly an amazing and inspiring trip to attend and compete in the largest ballroom dance competition in the world and see the best of the best in ballroom dancing.
Congratulations to our amazing ballroom dancers!
This year was the first year that the Blackpool Ballroom Dance Competition was open to ProAm events. ProAm ballroom dancing events give ballroom dancers the opportunity to participate in ballroom dance competitions if they don't have a partner. In ProAm dancing events, your dance instructor or professional dancer pairs up with you (the amateur dancer) to compete. It's sort of like "Dancing with the Stars" where your dance instructor is there with you every step of the way. In these ProAm dance events only the amateur is judged, which leaves your professional partner free to help you look and dance your very best!
ProAm ballroom dancing is a safe, encouraging and less intimidating introduction to professional competitive ballroom dancing. If you want to improve your ballroom dancing technique quickly, practicing for a ProAm ballroom dancing competition is the way to go. You will be amazed at how fast your confidence, poise, and technique will improve when you have a goal to achieve. For more information on ProAm ballroom dancing, talk with Deborah or Guillermo.
The Blackpool Dance Festival is the first and the largest international ballroom dance competition in the world. The first Blackpool dance competition was held in 1920 in the magnificent Empress Ballroom (named for Queen Victoria) in the Winter Gardens of Blackpool, England. Since then, it has grown to attract the top international ballroom dancers from around the world.
In this year's event, 61 countries were represented with a total of 2,970 ballroom dancing entries across 13 dance events 10 team events. With over 8 days of dancing, the Blackpool Dance Festival covers Ballroom and Latin American ballroom dancing, plus the British Open Championships for adult amateur and professional couples (ProAm) as well as formation dance teams. If you want to experience the best in ballroom dancing, then you absolutely must attend the Blackpool Dance Festival.
Here's a sneak peek at our Charleston dance routine practice in preparation for our Great Gatsby Celebration in November.
A very popular dance in the 1920's, the Charleston dance was for the young and rebellious men and women who were letting loose and having fun in the roaring 20's. The Charleston with its lively exuberance was a total break with the social constraints of the past and the young women who cut their hair short, drank, smoked and danced the Charleston were called "flappers". In fact, the Charleston was practically the signature dance of the "flapper" or liberated woman to dance by herself and say "Look at me! I'm beautiful and sexy!" In fact, the Charleston of the 1920's was often much wilder and less stylized than the ballroom Charleston we see today. The Charleston was typically a wild shimmy and shake and "anything goes" dance with lots of energy and excitement.
The Charleston was typically danced solo or as a line dance although you can also dance it together in closed position with a partner, or as an addition to a Foxtrot dance. In a typical Foxtrot, one partner would get excited and break off into a solo Charleston routine with their partner dancing along. Then, when they had had enough they would come back together in closed position and resume their Foxtrot.

First, congratulations to Renee, who blogs at Quilts of a Feather, the lucky winner in my ongoing blog birthday celebration. Congratulations Renee!
And I have some quilting to show off. First up are my Bee Sewcial blocks for Karen, who blogs at Capitola Quilter. Her theme was Stretch, and she asked for blocks in the colours of denim and also greys. I had a lot of fun making improv stretched out curves.
I was thinking I might add some more grey curves but I had to leave it as is when I saw the curvy bottom in the stretched out jeans.
This was actually the first block I made, and I was going to take it to Karen at QuiltCon but then I dropped in a puddle of water my iron had released on my cutting board. So it has been hand washed now and pressed again. As Karen pointed out, one gets their jeans wet regularly.
And I also added this improv herringbone onto Ethne's quilt in my Pips Round Robin - I have to say that I am smitten with improv herringbone now and hope to make more soon. We are making a mini quilt in this round robin with the quilts going from the UK, to France, to the USA to Canada, to Australia and then to the UK again. This has been a very challenging project and I am just loving the results - it is fun to work with such a talented group of women.
Look at that mini quilt so far, it has only one more addition before it is done. Isn't it fantastic?
Well, it is going to be a warm day, I hope to sew and to garden and maybe even take a nap.

A great way to see both Ontario and Nova Scotia is to sample our Toronto & Halifax twin centre holiday.
Explore Toronto, Canada's largest and most exciting urban centre with annual festivals, museums, galleries and theatres that rival the best in the world. Globetrot to culturally diverse neighbourhoods with eclectic shops and restaurants serving delectable cuisine from all corners of the world. Travel 1,136 feet up the CN Tower, practice your spins and lifts skating at Nathan Phillips Square, explore the mysteries of the ocean at Ripley's Aquarium, touch the Stanley Cup, ice hockey's most coveted prize at the Hockey Hall of Fame. No matter what you are looking for, Toronto offers an unforgettable adventure all year-round.
For a city with more pubs and clubs per capita than almost any city in Canada, it's fitting that Halifax's most famous brewmaster was also their mayor three times.

text: Hi Guys I am making a site for a client who has three houses to sell. I am using a theme that has a front page slider - and also want to use a thumbnail gallery plugin on the three separate property pages. However the plugin does not work - I put the shortcode in for my gallery, but the page just shows as blank. I think this probably has something to do with the theme's slider - but I do not want to change the theme, and I do want this plugin. I have tried several other gallery plugins too, and although some did show, none worked right. If there is anyone who can is this for me today I would be very grateful. Pls let me know if you think you could fix it for me and how much you'd want for the job. Thanks in advance

The very basics
Triathlon is a multi-discipline sport consisting of a swim, followed by cycle course and ending in a run. Of course, you knew that. Triathlon is raced by men and women of all ages, children, juniors and athletes with disabilities. Elite triathletes race under slightly different rules, which allow drafting on the bike, and so it is rare that amateur, or age group, triathletes find themselves up against the professionals. Instead, we have the age group system in which athletes compete against others of the same sex and in 5-year age bands.
To race in the vast majority of races in the UK membership of the British Triathlon Association is required for insurance purposes. You can buy a day membership for each race, but if you intend to do more than 6 races it's more economical to become a full member of BTA.
Conventional triathlon events vary in distance ranging from what is known as a 'sprint' triathlon through to long course, or Ironman, which covers a total of 140.5 miles and culminates in a full marathon.
Types of Triathlon
Sprint Distance
Only in triathlon would a race that will take on average 90 mins to complete be referred to as a sprint! This is how most of us experienced our first taste of triathlon – the swim, which is usually in a pool can be anything from 400 to 750m, the cycle course is usually about 12 miles and the run almost always 5km. Sprint events tend to be low-key and local affairs, organised by local triathlon clubs from a sports centre or school and for this reason the length of the courses can vary from one event to another. With the shorter swim it is feasible to hold that part of the race indoors and hence sprints tend to be held early in the season, and serve well as warm up or refresher events for the upcoming longer races of the summer. Many of the main events of the calendar will host a sprint distance race alongside the full distance. Races such as the Eton sprint series and the national sprint triathlon championships draw a bigger crowd, have open water swims and are raced over exactly half of the standard Olympic distance.
Olympic distance
This is the most commonly raced triathlon distance; a 1500m swim, either in a lake or ocean, a 40km (25mile) cycle and a 10km run. Between the end of may and mid September in the UK it is possible to find at least one of these races every weekend, so obviously some consideration is required as to which races you plan to target as your 'key' events. It generally takes 2 weeks to fully recover from an Olympic distance race sufficiently to race well again, and at least 3 weeks off should be allowed before a key race.
Calendars which announce the important races (leagues or series races, qualifying events for the World championships, and the national age group championships) of the upcoming season are usually available by January, and it can certainly pay to get entries in early for the more popular races.
Middle distance
More commonly known as half-Ironman distance races, cover a total of 70.3miles. That's a 1.9km swim, 50 miles on the bike and a half marathon. There are fewer of these events on the calendar, for obvious reasons, but the races are well attended and supported. Some would say that, if you have been racing Olympic standard races for a year or so, you would be able to complete a race of this length with minimal additional training.
And top of the heap is the long course or better known after the trademark Ironman. These races are a serious business. You will not wing this and for many, simply to complete the course is the main goal. Usually to race Ironman you will travel broad, and of course it will be the whole focus of your season. There is a world Ironman championship, held in Hawaii, which one can qualify in any other Ironman branded race. These places are highly sought after.
Hopefully the information above will be of use to you in deciding the type of race that you want to do, so it's just a question of picking an event. Tri London members favour certain races, and will generally announce the races that they have entered for inclusion in the 'race calendar', and you may wish to consider these for the sake of some moral support from team-mates and arranging transport. Members often write reports on races, which can be found through the website – this might help you to decide, and can provide some useful information about the course that you have chosen too. During the year there are a number events which call for teams – please do take part if you can, as apart from being great fun and social events, you will be helping to raise the profile of your club and supporting you colleagues of all abilities.
How to approach training for triathlon varies much according to the individual. Some people will pick up a prescribed training plan designed around a particular race and rigidly adhere to it, whilst others will plan their training on a week by week basis according to a continual monitoring of perceived progress and energy levels; some will attend regular coached sessions or classes, whilst others may need to train during unsociable hours to fit with their schedule. As a member of a triathlon club you have considerable resources at your disposal, so talk to your colleagues – both the more experienced triathletes and those new to the sport like your self. Find out about any training sessions that are offered by the club, or of any one who may live near to you or be following a similar training plan to yourself for some company and a little motivation.
You will need to be economical with the time available for training – and realistic about how much you can do. Remember that recovery is as important as the training, and allow adequate time for this too. If its general fitness that you need to improve, a 30 minute run will be far more beneficial than a 30 min ride, for example. If it's your swimming that needs attention, then get yourself to the pool as frequently as possible- even if its just 20 minutes at a time in your lunch break. Try combining a bit of training with your commute to work – perhaps redesign your direct bike route to take in a few hills, or try running in or home a few times a week. Most weekends club members will organise a long ride and this is a great opportunity to get to know new faces and get some miles under your belt.
You should aim for at least one training session for each of the 3 sports each week, and possibly one extra for what you consider to be your weakest discipline. Most people find it useful to keep a training diary to record the session: length, distance, intensity and any other remarks that will be of use when reviewing it in the future. This will enable you to plan ahead, gradually increase the distance, intensity or duration of your sessions, include periodic 'light' weeks and can also help with motivation.
Kit and equipment
So, you've made up your mind to have a go, picked a race, and designed a training plan. But what about kit?? One of the first things that you'll notice is that there seems to be an awful lot of it, and none of it is cheap. Well, don't be put off by this, or fooled into thinking that once you've bought it all, you're a triathlete! Frankly a lot of it is unnecessary, and certainly, if you are new to the sport, it's worth giving yourself a season to be sure that its something you'll be sticking with. With a little experience you'll be better able to prioritise the wish list for the year(s) ahead.
However, there are a few items that you do absolutely need:
Sadly, the climate that we have means that, except perhaps for the occasional race at the height of summer, a wetsuit will be compulsory in any triathlon with an open water (out doors) swim. If you have a surf wetsuit, or a 'shorty' you will be allowed to race in it, however it wont offer the full buoyant benefit of a wetsuit with full legs, and may be uncomfortable or restrictive to swim in. The hire of a triathlon specific wetsuit can be arranged through triathlon stores or the event organiser, and it is common for them to offer good deal on purchase of any rented suit. After 3 races it generally works out more economical to buy your own, which you can pick up from about £150 with the ex-rental option. Expect to see prices starting at £200 for a new suit in the shops. Tri London has 2 club wetsuits which can be borrowed at a very good rate, although one size most certainly does not fit all!
Optional, but pretty crucial in most peoples opinion! Go for clear lenses that curve around the corners of the eye slightly for better vision when swimming in open water. Protect the lenses from scratching as much as possible and replace regularly to maintain a clear view.
Even if you plan only to take part in races with a pool swim, or in a country with a more agreeable climate, you are still defiantly going to need a bike! There are no rules about what sort of bike (though recumbrants, tandems, unicycles are probably not allowed), although since this aspect of the race accounts for about 50%, there is a clear advantage to having a bike designed for speed on the road rather than a mountain bike. If you do intend to use your mountain bike or hybrid to race on, it's worth making a few inexpensive modifications to save your energy and make it go faster. Start by taking off all the equipment and fittings such as mudguards, reflectors, and lock brackets. Replace the tyres with the thinnest 'slicks' available for the size of wheel that you have. Lock any suspension out of the shocks. Fit toe clips to your pedals (if you do not use spd or other type of clipless pedal) and you can fit clip-on aero/tri bars to give you a more aerodynamic and powerful riding position.
If you intend to purchase a new road bike for competing triathlon, it's worth looking out for second hand offers, and you may find great deals in sales that are within your price range. All of the best-known brands make what is known as entry-level bikes –retailing at under £500, these are alloy frames, sometimes with carbon fibre forks for a softer ride, and will be fitted with the cheapest components. Its worth bearing in mind that you can win races on an 'entry level' road bike, and that with a year' s good racing experience, you will be in a far better position to make a judgement as to how to upgrade. And you'll still have that trusty old bike for all your winter training.
Bike helmet
You won't race without one. If you are going to buy a new one for racing in, pay attention to the clasp and choose one that you can secure and undo very easily.
And few items that can really help:
Bike shoes
Most people that ride road bikes will already be using bike shoes – these are shoes with a plastic cleat fixed to the sole, which clips into special pedals fitted to the bike. The foot is then secured to the pedal through the whole pedal stroke, and a lot more power can be delivered than by using downward force alone. Having the foot attached to the pedal does take some getting used to, however, so it's best not to try this for the first time in a race! Toe clips (or cages) also allow you to use a fuller pedal stroke to some extent, are easier to get in and out of and have the added advantage that they can be ridden in with running shoes, so that's less to do in transition.
Tri suit
This is either a one piece or two piece out fit designed for all three disciplines of triathlon. It's tight enough to swim in without dragging, and has sufficient padding in the shorts to see you through 40km in the saddle without being uncomfortable to run in. Of course it's not necessary to have one for your first few triathlons, but bare torsos are not allowed in triathlon, and a tri suit will save the boys from having to put on a t-shirt on transition and the girls from having to ride in a swimsuit!
Elastic laces
Another non-essential, but a very cheap way of saving time in transition. Replace your ordinary shoelaces with elastic, and turn your trainers into 'slip-ons'! Of course you can buy the laces ready made from any triathlon shop, good sports shop, and retailers at events, but any elastic will do.
Number belt
This is a useful item for those triathlons that do not require a wet suit, especially if you are racing in a tri suit and don't intend to don a vest after the swim. It allows you to attach your number (remember on the back for the bike, on the front for the run) in one swift movement, and can be swivelled around the body to ensure that you are correctly marked in each discipline of the race. Again, for about a fiver you can pick one of these up in a triathlon sports shop, but a homemade one works just as well.

A Study of the Diatoms in Reed College Lake
author: Eleanor Arlene Danielson
advisor: Alan M. MacEwan
year: 1951
SUMMARY: On the basis of the available literature, a discussion of the structure, characteristics, reproduction, environmental requirements and basis of classification of diatoms is given as a general background.
Twenty-three genera occurring in the Reed College Lake were identified. These genera are listed and are discussed in connection with the habitats in which they were found.
Diatoms in varying abundance were found at all times on the lake bottom, submerged leaves and other objects, but very few diatoms were found in the open water of the lake.
Observations indicated that temperature and pH do not vary enough from one part of the lake to another to be responsible for population differences and that illuminations and rising temperatures appear to be factors partially responsible for a spring diatom maximum.
Differences of illumination on the north and south sides of the lake apparently did not affect the winter samples. In the early spring samples the diatom maximum occurred first on the well lighted north side. The later spring samples showed better growth in the more shaded areas. A harmful effect of too much light is suggested.
It was found that the storage of diatom cultures for protracted periods in the refrigerator, on an inside window ledge and on the outside is unsatisfactory, but samples may be kept in the refrigerator or other cool place overnight with no apparent harmful effects.
A satisfactory method for viewing both the girdle and valve is presented.

SWIFTWATER -- More changes could be coming soon to the Pocono Mountain School District.
District officials are now considering closing two more elementary schools, and reopening an intermediate school in the district.
Administrators presented the proposal to the school board and public Wednesday night.
It's a trend some folks who live in Monroe County say is all to common.
Several more schools in the district possibly shutting down, moving kids from school to school, having empty buildings, all the while taxpayers foot the bill.
"It seemed like it exploded, they just kept building the schools bigger and adding on and now all of a sudden everybody's leaving, but we're still stuck with the school tax bill, so I don't know what the deal is," says Terry Brink of Barrett Township.
Part of the deal for the proposed changes is declining enrollment.
In fact, since 2010 Pocono Mountain School officials say the district lost almost 900 students in K through 12 grades. And they project another decline of almost 450 students for the 2013 school year. Several schools were shut down in the district in 2012.
Officials say the plan would include closing Barrett Elementary Center and Pocono Elementary Center and reopening Swiftwater Intermediate School. The proposal says that would use the schools at full capacity.
Students in kindergarten through third grade would go to Swiftwater Elementary. And grades four through six would go to Swiftwater Intermediate.
Folks say it's a shame more and more people are leaving the Poconos.
"I've been here 18 years, yeah it's terrible, to see everything going downhill, jobs lost and everything, businesses moving, and it just falls down hill on everybody else," says Dennis Beaver of Barrett Township.
Pocono Mountain School District released a statement, it reads in part.
"Pocono Mountain school district has experienced a declining enrollment for several years. The administration will analyze student enrollment, building capacity and other factors to provide all students in the district with a high quality education in the most efficient and cost-effective manner. No decision has been made at this time on whether or not the schools will close."
A public hearing on the proposal to close schools is scheduled for Monday, February 25.
