As you know I'm a weekly contributor to the PhotoChallenge @ www.photochallenge.org. This year I decided to do a special Photo Challenge and here it is, the spookiest and most anticipated PhotoChallenge ever, right in time for Halloween 2015. Your Challenge, if you're not too afraid to accept it, will be to create the spookiest animated infrared GIF ever.
Every year for Halloween, I create an image for my blog. In 2013 I created the above image. This year I wanted to do a little something more and share the process as a Challenge for the week of Halloween. Hopefully you'll find it challenging, rewarding and a great motivation for your creative mind.
Post from RICOH THETA. - Spherical Image - RICOH THETA
Your first step will be to find the Spookiest location for your PhotoChallenge shoot. We chose to setup in front of a Mausoleum at a local cemetery as illustrated in the above Infrared PhotoSphere. We'll leave the details of your spooky location up to you. However since this is an Infrared Challenge, you'll most probably have to stay outdoors in the mid-day sun to maximize you're exposure capabilities.
For the last two months I've given you a heads up on the fact that we will be shooting an Infrared Challenge. Hopefully by now you should have purchased an infrared filter (Hoya R72 Recommended) or created one with the DIY video posted above.
Once you've chosen your spooky location, you'll need your spooky subject such as a goblin. In my case my standard issue wildlife photographer camo-pants with my Laguna Beach Hoody complimented my Dollar Store Halloween Mask.
If you've been following The 2015 PhotoChallenge and participated in the WEEK 35: Translucent Outdoor Long Exposures Challenge, then you should be able to create an image as pictured above, left. The left image is the result of a long exposure with the subject only exposed for a fraction of the total exposure, thus making it translucent. The right image is done in the same process, a long exposure but with an Infrared Filter fitted to a non-converted DSLR instead of a Neutral Density filter.
Installing a 720nm IR filter on your non-converted camera will have a result equivalent to at least 5 stops of light reduction depending on the hotfilter used by your camera manufacturer. The effect will be similar to that of an ND filter but the image will be red unless you can set an in-camera white balance under IR. Then you will have rusty and copper tones instead a monochromatic reds. A simple B&W conversion will suffice for the challenge. If you wish, you can attempt false IR colors to make everything even more bizarre.
In order to fulfill the challenge you will need to capture a minimum of two images in Infrared. One with just your scene as in SPOOKY IMAGE 1 above. You will also need to capture a second image. This one will be of a translucent ghostly apparition as we've practiced in a past challenge. This time we're just looking for Infrared images processed in B&W to facilitate the challenge and increase the eerie spook factor. This is the simple approach. You can as an alternative shoot your subject elsewhere and with the use of a layer mask animate it atop your original image.
Now that you have your two or more images, it's time to put them together into one animated gif. Remember the larger the image size and the more images you animate together, the bigger your file size will be. Keep your final image size as small as possible and limit the amount of images animated to no more than four. Processing and saving your image as a grayscale will also decrease the final file size of your B&W image. The above video illustrates the technique to create an animated gif with Photoshop. There are several online animated gif creators that should work. I haven't tried any but click here to search.
...and voila, by now the above GIF should have completely loaded and you should see the animation of four images in an endless loop. This will be my 2015 Happy Halloween image for my Blog at Steve Troletti Photography.
You should be able to post your animated GIF directly to Google+ or Facebook with no problems. In Flickr you will have to provide the link to the original photo.

For as well as Brandon Ingram played in the NCCA Tournament, he certainly hasn't been getting some of the respect he deserves. Ben Simmons has yet again taken over the spotlight with rumors swirling about his desire to force his way to the Lakers and videos surfacing of him working on his jump shot. Simmons obviously has no power to decide his fate, but these developments had overshadowed Ingram's draft story until recently. Though Ingram should still be considered for number one pick, it seems all but certain that Ben Simmons will be chosen by the Sixers. This will leave the Lakers with the 6'9″ wing from Kinston, North Carolina. In this article, I will determine whether Brandon Ingram is overrated or underrated.
In case you haven't seen it, check out my Brandon Ingram scouting report:
Even though I went in-depth on Brandon Ingram in my scouting report, there is no problem with digging a bit deeper.
Playmaking: Underrated
Playmaking is easily the most underrated aspect of Ingram's game. People see what he can do when he scores, but he doesn't seem like much of a passer. Most of that has to do with the flashy passes that Simmons can pull off. When comparing Simmons' playmaking to Ingram's, it is no contest. Ingram isn't bad by any means, it just serves as a testimony to how good of a passer Simmons is. As a playmaker, Ingram can dribble the ball up the court and drive with ease. He doesn't have a handle as smooth or fluid as Kevin Durant, but he has no problems creating for himself. He protects his dribble well, as illustrated by his rate of 2.4 TOV per 40 minutes he averaged in college. Although he isn't the strongest guy and can be knocked off-balance fairly easily, he can still get by players with his handle. His passing is rarely talked about, but the freshman had a good ability to hit players right where they needed to be. His strength doesn't allow him to throw bullet passes, but they hit their marks. He surprisingly ran pick and rolls quite well. The 7'3" wingspan allows him to pass over most players without the defender getting a hand on the ball. His height and length are both huge factors in his ability to see over the defense and read which pass he should make. His vision allows him to get a bit flashy when the defense reacts and a player is left open. His handle and passing allows him to be a threat, not only when he is catching and shooting the ball, but also when attacking the lane and looking to pass the ball to create offense. Here are some examples:
Defense: Day One/Future-Mixed
Many of you may disagree, but I think that Ingram's frame will let him down. In the NBA, everyone is much stronger than he is, and strength is what helps players succeed early on. His height and length will help, but expectations from him early should be lowered. What he will be day one, however, will not be the final product. As his body matures, so will his game. His fundamentals will improve, and so will his strength. He will be able to defend stronger players more effectively and could become a legitimate two-way player. Ingram's college season showed flashes of this, with him picking off passing lanes and getting blocks when helping or simply closing out. In fact, I may be ready to say that Ingram will become a better defender than scorer. That wingspan and his quick feet will be hard to beat, especially once he adds muscle. The current issue with his frame, apart from getting pushed around in the post, is that he often becomes unbalanced. This causes him to fail at moving his feet quickly enough to stay with his opponent, allowing the player to draw a foul or finish at the rim. His potential revolves around his ability to add muscle without hindering his current abilities. If weight is added and everything else remains, Ingram will become a better defender than a scorer.
Length: Underrated
For a guy that has a 7'3" wingspan with a 6'9" body, it is interesting to say that Ingram's length is underrated. It is one thing to have length, but it is another thing to know how to use it, and boy, does Brandon know how to use it. For him, it's all about knowing what he has and what his limitations are. He knows he can't post up as much as he wants to, or constantly guard more physical players. Even when he gets into these types of situations, he manages to make the most out of them. His toughness allows for his length to become a bigger factor. Even when a bigger player is on him, he competes and attempts to do what he can. He doesn't get backed down too deep into the post, and if the big man settles for a hook or lay-up attempt, his length bothers it and sometimes even blocks it. When a teammate is beaten off the dribble, Ingram slides into help defense and contests or blocks the shot. On offense, he doesn't need to back down a player. He can pull up or fade away without much of a problem, since he can easily shoot over his opponent. His length makes certain shots easier. He can shoot over a defender right up on him and make it when other players might get blocked or miss. That is the type of tough cover that Ingram is, but since the NBA is longer and faster, Ingram will require more strength to be more successful. Length doesn't make or break a player, but if someone has it, then the correct use of that advantage can separate the good players from the great ones.
Isolation shot creation: Slightly Overrated
Another hot take here, but Ingram's isolation shot creation is getting too much praise. Don't get me wrong, Ingram will become a great isolation player that can become pretty difficult to guard. Right now though, his isolations won't be as productive as expected. Similar to D'Angelo Russell, Ingram will get hot and look amazing, flashing all the potential at once. These stretches will make me look dumb, but for the most part, I think he will struggle to create a bit. He will get pushed around and become off-balanced more than people expect. If he gets unbalanced on offense, it allows the defender to stay in front and cut off the drive, leaving him with only his jump shot. That makes him easier to defend. The problem is that the NBA is so fast and strong that Ingram might struggle to settle in early on. He will be able to score using his length, but his limited strength will cause problems. Even so, if he gets drafted by the Lakers, Luke Walton's offense revolves around ball movement, and isolations will be few and far between. His shooting will already make him an asset in this system, so his isolation struggles won't be an issue.
First step: Underrated
Having the jump on a player is a very important first step to attacking on offense. Being able to get by someone while also being able to shoot over them gives the defender two things to worry about. Most players will either shoot or attack the basket, but those that can do both are already a mismatch. It opens up many options for the offensive player and the defense can only react. This is what makes Ingram so deadly. He can get by a defender with a quick first step followed by some long strides, taking him to the rim in an instant. His second option is to jab a few times and pull up. His third option is to post up or try to get a closer pull up shot. He can also reset the play, but that's boring. Ingram has all of these moves in his offensive arsenal. His first step doesn't get much attention, but it certainly helps when he attempts to be aggressive. Lakers fans will come to love it.
Rebounding – Underrated
For a player of his length and size, Ingram doesn't get enough credit for being a great rebounder. He competes against other players when he is in the middle of the fray, and is tough enough to battle for the ball. Most of the rebounds he gets are reaching up and grabbing the ball with his long arms. He does make an effort to box out, but the stronger players will be able to get him out of position. Still, that standing reach should allow him to average 6-7 rebounds early on. What makes his rebounding so deadly is that he can get the ball and push it very effectively. He can get by players and has a feel for when to kick it out to shooters. Don't forget that he can also rise up and finish with the best of them. This is one of the few aspects of Ingram's game that compares favorably to Kevin Durant. Luke is going to want to run, and Ingram will help the Lakers pick up the pace.
Toughness – Underrated
Ingram is scrawny and doesn't seem physically threatening as a player. That is what draws the Kevin Durant comparison, since they were both long scorers that had a skinny frame. Kevin Durant is one of the best, if not the best, scorer of all time because he is unguardable. Ingram can do this too, but not as effectively as Durant yet. There is a difference between being physically strong and being flat-out tough. Tough is exactly what Ingram is. He plays tougher than his frame dictates, and it helps him in every way. He absorbs contact well, and doesn't shy away from it. Apart from that, his reluctance to not give up on rebounds and loose balls silences the critics. You have to be tough if you want to lead a six man rotation as far as he did in the NCAA Tournament. Even in the face of defeat, he always kept competing. He can adjust his shot against bigger defenders. When engaged as a rebounder, he can get to the ball fast and at its highest point. This is why Ingram is such a sleeper. They see his frame, but it doesn't tell the whole story.
Projection – Underrated
Brandon Ingram is likely going to be a Laker. People have underestimated Ingram since he was in high school. Skal Labissiere and Ben Simmons took all the hype, while Ingram locked himself in the gym and worked on improving his game. For a prospect, Ingram has already shown the ability to improve his game. He improved his playmaking, added some muscle, and has worked on polishing his defensive fundamentals. Brandon Ingram is a stud. He can become an elite scorer with his perimeter shooting and handle that allows him to create for himself. His weight is a bit of an issue, but Brandon is working hard to ease that concern. Don't take it from me, here are some quotes from his Draft Express interview:
How much strength and conditioning do you do right now? Is weightlifting a priority right now?
"It's definitely a priority right now. It is one of my deficiencies right now going to the next level, but we know that it is going to take time. We are doing what we can and that's all that we can do right now."
How much weight have you been able to gain since the season ended?
"In April (speaking on weight gained recently), probably 7-10 pounds. I think that being up here (New York) and being around food and around basketball and not having to work at school has been pretty good for me. It's (basketball) kind of my job right now, so I'm trying to do anything I can to put on weight and perfect my game."
I know that it is early, but Ingram sounds like a hard working kid who genuinely cares about basketball and wants to become the best player that he can. If his tournament run didn't sell you on him, then nothing will. He isn't just a shooter or just a scorer. Brandon Ingram is a well-rounded player that carries plenty of potential on both sides of the ball. He does all of the things that are needed in the modern NBA and is a good fit for Luke Walton's system. He has not only created a debate about who should be the number one player, but has done it in a way that does not receive the national attention it deserves. I think that Brandon Ingram will be a star in this league. Super-stardom will be determined by how he refines his game. Ingram isn't perfect, but then again, nobody is. He is the prospect that quietly goes about the process while others get much more attention. Many people have been sleeping on him, and that is one of the biggest mistakes the NBA could make going forward.

AN AVOCADO SEED can be easily nurtured into a handsome house plant, so don`t throw it, grow it! Salvage it from the kitchen sink instead of tossing it into the garbage, give it a little green thumb encouragement and soon it will favor you with greenery rivaling the finest Ficus benjamina or other exotic foliage specimen in your collection.
There are some people we know who frankly dislike the fleshy fruit of the avocado, even though it rates highly as a garnish for gourmet salads, but they admit to shopping the supermarkets for a plump fruit solely to obtain its seed (or pit) so they can grow the plant.

I work on building easy-to-use and high-performance distributed infrastructure that can simplify application development and achieve scalable performance. I work with a group of talented students in the NYU systems group.
We live in an era with unprecedented amounts of data. Popular web applications store the data of billions of users and process these data offline to gather business insights. The increasing deployment of networked sensors, cameras, monitors, and devices also generate massive amounts of data. How to store such vast amounts of data efficiently and reliably across many machines? How to let applications query and update distributed data safely and quickly in the face of concurrency and failure? How to run state-of-the-art computation to analyze data at scale so that we can make sense of the collected data in real time? These are the principal questions that our research aims to address.
I am teaching Distributed Systems in Fall 2017.
I got a B.S. in computer science from National University of Singapore. My undergraduate adviser is Y.C. Tay. I got a Ph.D. from MIT, working under the guidance of Robert Morris and Frans Kaashoek as a lucky PDOS member. I also had a great year as a postdoc working with Scott Shenker at Berkeley.

Do You Need Spoons To Read This Blog Post?
Many of the people that we support, and in the wider community, suffer from chronic conditions that cause them to feel pain or tiredness throughout the day. Conditions such as Lupus, ME and Fibromyalgia can leave you feeling incredibly drained, with no warning about when your symptoms will flare up. This means that you can feel full of energy one day, but unable to get out of bed the next. It can be incredibly difficult to explain your symptoms to someone else, especially if you look healthy on the outside.
Christine Miserandino, an award winning blogger who suffers from Lupus, has come up with an innovative new way to talk about her symptoms with friends. Healthy people, she argues, have an unlimited number of spoons per day, whereas people who suffer from chronic conditions only have (e.g.) twelve. If this seems a little bizarre, please stick with me. Each task that Christine completes takes one spoon when she is unwell. Sometimes, just waking up in the morning can cost you a spoon, especially if you have medication to take or if you didn't have enough sleep. Getting dressed, making breakfast and getting out of the house, these tasks can cost you a spoon each. For muscle conditions like Lupus, even choosing your clothes can take up a lot of energy. For example, if your hands are very sore that day, clothes with buttons are out of the question.
By the evening you might not have enough spoons to make dinner or go out with friends. In contrast, when Christine is feeling well she may find that it only costs her one spoon to do her morning routine. She is able to do all her activities during the day with spoons left in the evening to socialise, or do something that she enjoys.
Using this technique, Christine is able to tell her friends and carers when she is not feeling well enough to go out or needs extra support, without having to go into detail about her symptoms. She simply tells them that she 'doesn't have enough spoons.' The Spoons Theory also makes you think about hurdles that people with chronic conditions have to overcome as part of their daily lives, and is a useful exercise for people supporting them. Next time you are trying to explain to someone what living with chronic pain is like, why not use Christine's Theory? You can read it in full here.

Insurance Companies Greed is Killing Restoration Companies
Having been in the water restoration and drying business since 1992 I have seen sweeping changes by the insurance companies. Some of these changes have been great for the industry but some are absolutely killing and controlling companies all over the U.S.
Some of the good changes are now everybody is more accountable. The documentation of the claims are now very comprehensive which is great if there are ever any issues with the claim. From photos documenting the entire loss, to moisture readings, and documenting all conversations a water restoration loss is documented more thoroughly than your last doctor visit.
The bad thing about this is that the paperwork is extremely time consuming. This can be a full-time job for someone just on the paperwork except for the fact you can't bill for the time doing the paperwork. There are a lot of companies out there that can dry a house and do it in a relative short amount of time. However, the paperwork is what sets the good ones apart from the bad ones. Just like doctor's though water restoration companies are hiring people to do paperwork. This extra employee expense was not necessary a few years ago and it is increasingly difficult to find money to pay for this when the same insurance companies are constantly cutting the prices they will pay for everything.
A good example of this is in 1992 when I started in the water restoration industry the going rate was 30.00 a day for a centrifugal air mover. Today we get 27.00 a day. In 2001, I got 135.00 a day for an extra large dehumidifier, today we get 103.00 per day for the same unit. Also, within the last year insurance companies are not wanting to pay for call out fees. They still want you to be available 24/7 but they are getting mighty picky about paying for that service. The prices they will pay are constantly going down while the demands on my staff's time is increasing exponentially.
Rather than cutting the money water restoration companies earn there are other ways they could cut their cost and have better contractors. If they stopped paying for inefficient, out-dated standard refrigerant dehumidifiers and only allowed lgr dehumidifiers sized correctly to the jobs then they would have to replace less items on claims and the dry times in the entire industry would be faster. This would ultimately lower their cost on claims. I doubt this will occur though because of most people's lack of drying knowledge.
Another way they could control cost would be to have two sets of preferred contractors, mitigation companies and general contractors. Then don't allow mitigation companies to do rebuilds or general contractors to do dry outs. There is no incentive to dry anything within the structure if you know that you can make 10x the money removing it and replacing it. This is a huge problem within the industry, in my opinion.

You can buy some topical corticosteroids "over-the-counter" without a prescription. For example, for dermatitis, you can buy the steroid cream called hydrocortisone 1% from your pharmacy. Do not apply this to your face unless your doctor has told you to do so. This is because it may trigger a skin condition affecting the face ( acne or rosacea. ) Long-term use may also damage the skin. On your face this would be more noticeable than the rest of your body. So usually only weak steroids are used on the face. Those which are suitable are prescription-only.
Steroid and antibiotic eye drops - hydrocortisone/neomycin/polymixin B; loteprednol/tobramycin; prednisolone/gentamycin; prednisolone/sulfacetamide; hydrocortisone /neomycin/bacitracin/ polymyxin B (Blephamide, Catapred [discontinued], Isopto, Pred-G, Poly-Pred [discontinued], Tobradex, Zylet and many other brands) are steroid and antibiotic eye drops prescribed to prevent or treat eye infections that are associated with inflammation. Side effects, drug interactions, dosage, and pregnancy safety information should be reviewed prior to using these medications.

We had the best afternoon with Pauline. A must do if you are visiting Auckland or just looking for fun! My 75yr old Mum loved it. You're never too old.
Having heaps of fun in Devonport. Thanks for a fantastic afternoon, Andreas! Best wishes,
★★★★★ Fantastic hour and a bit of fun and interesting local information!!!!! Loved it!
Well...what can we say! What an amazing experience! As neither of us had been on a Segway before we were apprehensive about driving it up mount Victoria. However, as soon as we met Pauline we knew we were in safe hands. She was amazing-so friendly and knowledgeable about Devonport and Auckland and was more than happy to answer all of our questions. Riding on the Segways was an experience never to be forgotten (and the closest to quid-ditch we will get!) We did the Mt Victoria tour and would recommend it to anyone! The 360 panoramic views are truly stunning and breathtaking!
Amazing photos! Thanks for a great afternoon out, really enjoyed our (and my first) Segway experience.
We've never done it before and weren't sure what to expect. We had a blast. We had enough time at the beginning to get used to what to do & then we were away & having, fun, fun, fun! Thanks Pauline!
We do a Segway Tour in every city we visit if they have one.
It's absolutely the best way to explore a new area.
Thank you so much for the photos! You are such a delight - yesterday was so much fun for us - we can't thank you enough!

After his Escalade was broken into Wednesday morning, Chad Ochocinco vented his frustrations on Twitter. The New England Patriots wide receiver was particularly upset about the loss of his prized Starbucks card. This wasn't just any old card, though. It was the wide receiver's Gold card, issued as part of a customer loyalty program that entitles holders to a range of perks. Needless to say, Ochocinco expressed that he was quite upset when confronted with the reality of losing everything he had worked so hard for (in coffee points, of course).
After discovering that his car had been burglarized, Ochocinco tweeted "I wish Tyrannosaurus Rex diarrhea on whoever broke my window and stole my #Gold starbucks cards..."
The card wasn't the only thing missing from the vehicle. Ochocinco claimed that the suspect also nabbed his wallet and iPod during the robbery, two things he seems much less concerned about in his video. Luckily, Ochocinco's expansive reach on Twitter paid off when one of his followers tweeted that her mother had found his wallet, which apparently still contained his credit cards and license according to the Boston Herald. What's more, Starbucks even responded to the star's struggle via Twitter and offered to send him a new card.

Partitioner insertion and sort insertion each make writing a flow easier by alleviating the need for a user to think about either partitioning or sorting data. By examining the requirements of operators in the flow, the parallel engine can insert partitioners, collectors and sorts as necessary within a data flow.
However, there are some situations where these features can be a avoided or not needed.
If data is pre-partitioned and pre-sorted, and the InfoSphere DataStage job is unaware of this, you could disable automatic partitioning and sorting for the whole job by setting the following environment variables while the job runs:
You can set these as "TRUE" to disable auto insertion by datastage. You can also disable partitioning on a per-link basis within your job design by explicitly setting a partitioning method of Same on the Input pagePartitioning tab of the stage the link is input to.
To disable sorting on a per-link basis, insert a Sort stage on the link, and set the Sort Key Mode option to Don't Sort (Previously Sorted).
IBM advise that average users leave both partitioner insertion and sort insertion alone, let Datastage handle this and that power users perform careful analysis before changing these options.

The specifics of these two new services include:
- Ultimate Speed Internet 30 at $US64.60 per month provides 30 Mbps downstream and 1 Mbps upstream with total file transfer limits (uploads and downloads combined) of 30 GB per month.
- Ultimate Speed Internet 50 at $US79.50 per month provides 50 Mbps downstream and 1 Mbps upstream with total file transfer limits (uploads and downloads combined) of 50 GB per month.
After Laval, these services will gradually be rolled out across the rest of Videotron's service area.
Videotron ran a trial of this technology with 100 users in 2007. It found that Cisco's technology would support speeds of 100 Mbps. Videotron decided not to offer a 100 Mbps service because it felt that it would not be affordable at a price well over $US100 per month.
Videotron is currently testing DOCSIS 3.0 systems in its labs. It expects to deploy this technology in the future. It will increase the upstream speeds at the same time.
This is the first commerical rollout in North America of pre DOCSIS 3.0 technology. This rollout follows the patter that I have expected with limited geographic deployment and a high price attached to the service. This approach gives Videotron bragging rights, but it does not significantly change its position in the broadband market in Quebec.
I expect that U.S. cable companies will follow a similar strategy. They will be more concerned about cannibalizing their own base of cable modem users than telco broadband services. I expect that this will be true even where Verizon's FiOS TV FTTH service is starting to make significant inroads.
On the other hand, these new cable technologies provide an excellent counter strategy for the cable companies that they can choose to use aggressively when they have to.

Considering new windows? Think about double pane glass. It's going to go to work for you. Triple pane glass is best for very, very cold climates. Dual pane windows are going to give you a quicker payback and more. Here are 3 ways they work and 4 things they'll do for you.
How They Work
1. It's an extra layer of glass. Dual pane windows are double glazed. That means there is an extra – or second – layer of glass. Between the two panes is a very small air gap.
2. In a sealed window the air is dried. It's not a vacuum, the windows are sealed at a low pressure and the air is dried to prevent misting.
3. The air insulates. The air doesn't trap heat. Instead it slows the heat transfer. Conduction and convection are what is changed the most – not radiation. The trapped air insulates and reduces conduction, and since the air gap is very narrow, the air can't circulate easily. Thus, convection is reduced.
What a Dual Pane Window Can Do for You
1. Your home is quieter. Just as the windows reduce heat transfer; they reduce sound transmission. This means the inside of your home will be quieter. Many people who install new windows are surprised by how much outdoor noise comes inside!
2. Frames can be low maintenance. If you choose vinyl, the most popular choice in new window frames, or fiberglass, you're never going to have to scrape and repaint again. These frames are very low maintenance and will never need painting. Vinyl has limited color choices (usually just white or beige) while fiberglass had more color choices but is more expensive.
3. You're safer! It's pretty simple. Two layers of glass designed to trap air are simply stronger. Some will come with a lifetime warranty against breakage. You'll also get new window locks that will help secure your home and keep you safe.
4. You get some money back. You're going to get money back two ways. First, if you've replaced old leaky windows, you may see a change for the better in your heating and cooling bills. Next, you've added value to your home so you'll get money back when you sell.
When you select your new windows, talk to a licensed window repair phoenix company. They can help you decide what style will work best for you (no, you don't have to keep your new windows exactly the same as your old windows). They'll also help you select the windows that will give you the best return on your investment because it's right for you home and your climate!

Donna Edwards for Congress – Maryland's 4th District: Edwards Scores Upset Primary Win
The Office
The race for Congress in Maryland's 4th District.
The Candidate
Donna Edwards, an accomplished public servant who has dedicated her career to service. A single mother who overcame challenging circumstances herself, Donna has worked tirelessly to make a real, lasting difference in the lives of others – from co-founding the National Network to End Domestic Violence and leading the fight for the landmark Violence Against Women Act, to spearheading campaign finance and lobbying reform efforts at Public Citizen and working to strengthen protections for labor rights as executive director of the Arca Foundation.
The Challenge
Donna faced the district's 16-year incumbent Democratic Congressman, Al Wynn, who started the race with a disproportionate share of resources and the backing of several prominent Democratic leaders and institutions.
The Outcome
Lake Research Partners' research – along with Donna's message of progressive change and the groundswell of grassroots and institutional support that her message generated – propelled her to a stunning 25-point victory.
The Methodology
Donna first challenged Wynn in 2006. With LRP guiding the research on messaging and targeting, Donna managed to pull within three points of victory despite being outspent by a wide margin. Riding a wave of enthusiasm from her 2006 race, Donna challenged Wynn again in 2008. LRP's research helped Donna develop essential contrasts in her message by identifying the most persuasive elements of her candidacy, and helped upend the conventional wisdom about Al Wynn by uncovering the core vulnerabilities in his profile. LRP identified critical GOTV and persuasion targets, and found the messages that inspired Democrats to brave the sleet and snow and vote for Donna on Election Day.

Well, school begins a week from Wednesday, and the upcoming week is filled with job training (I work with developmental English classes for Grammar training), dentist appointments, and bluegrass band practice (my band is playing at the county fair). Summer is, for all intents and purposes, over as soon as Tuesday rolls around.
So, the order of business today is…you guessed it…whipping my growing pile of school books into organized submission. How? Three words:
Milk. Crate. Shelves.
As soon as I figure out how to anchor the darn things into my brick wall (and find the cement drill bit that will allow me to do so) I'll be in business.
Pictures will be posted upon completion. No guarantees about the completion part, though.

In 2001, a small group of dedicated medical breeders and cultivators who did not want to follow the trodden paths of the rest of the industry established TGA Seeds to leave their very own trail in the world of medical marijuana breeding. Instead of feminizing their seeds or creating autoflowering varieties by crossing regular strains with Ruderalis, they only offer organically produced medical cannabis seeds. By relying on information and specific data from thousands of medical cannabis growers they turned into reality what they called "open source breeding" and looking at the high potency of their varieties it is plain to see that they really know what they are doing. Now, over a dozen years after the foundation of TGA Seeds they have a wide array of varieties with high medical value in their catalog and each is tailored to help with certain conditions. Whether one suffers from pain, nausea, tremors, nerve pain, spasms, MS, anxiety, depression or even social disorders, TGA Seeds has the perfect natural remedy. Subcool and MzJill, The Weed Nerd and The Green Avengers even composed their own "Super Soil" and fertilizer.
Dairy Queen is a true stinker and a puzzler for your carbon filters! And not only the smell it produces is full of power - the wide and rather short bushy plants reach full maturity within only 7-8 weeks and will amaze you with insane resin production. This regal lady is suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, but you'll need very tolerant neighbors.
Deep Purple is based on a variety with many aliases, the legendary Purple Urkle. TGA Subcool crossed it with Querkle, which is a blend of Purple Urkle and Space Queen, wherein Space Queen is a mix of Cinderella 99 and the famed 100% Indica Romulan. The result is a short and stocky plant that does not grow very fast and yields only averagely, but delivers a superior end product.
Jack's Cleaner 2 is a back-crossing based on the notorious Jacks Cleaner, which is a complex genetic blend of Pluton, Purple Haze, Lambsbread, Northern Lights and a male Jack Herer plant. TGA Subcool combined that high yielding Sativa variety with his Jack The Ripper to create a plant for those in search for the holy grail of a Lemon Haze. Tall plant with very potent fruits.
Kaboom by TGA Subcool is a cross created by blending two famed varieties; the holy grail of Lemon Haze, Jack's Cleaner and a male Vortex. The result is a very tall plant capable of producing insane yields. The duration of the flowering time is typically long, but the wait of 60-75 days is rewarded with highly potent weed with a very pleasant aroma and flavor.
Qleaner by TGA Subcool has the potential to produce such an abundance of crystal clear trichomes that you could think the buds spend some time in a blizzard. And as if this would not be enough for your dazzled eyes, the buds can show a partly change of colors, taking on lilac/purple hues. To add even more color to the already attractive look, the leafs can turn to midnight-purple.
Querkle is a fantastic combination of a female Urkle and a male Space Queen with a slightly faster growth then her mother and an almost unbelievably high THC level. This Indica dominant purple beauty should be allowed to remain in her vegetative period for longer than usual varieties because she is still not the fastest, but the high yield is a great reimbursement for the extra time.
Space Bomb is the offspring of a variety TGA Subcool kept in his repertory for a long time, but never used it for breeding. It is a smaller version of the Space Queen, the Tiny Bomb, a strain that somehow became very sought after. So, after 4 years he went to town with a clone of what he says is one of his favorite plants and crossed it with a male Space Queen. Result: BINGO!
Looking at the names of the parents one could think The Flav came from outer space. TGA Subcool pollinated a female Romulan with Space Queen and therewith created a really tasty Sativa/Indica crossbreed with a very vigorous growth and high yields. The Flav adapts well to any growing method, but she is very demanding in regards to space - she needs plenty of it to spread her arms.
The Third Dimension is based on three elitary cannabis varieties - Apollo 13, one of Subcool's favorites and Space Queen and Jack's Cleaner, the parents of his Jack The Ripper. This is one of the fastest maturing varieties Subcool has in his catalog. All it takes her are 45-50 days to develop highly resinous buds with the sweet flavor of coconuts, pineapples, kiwi and fruit.
The Void has been created by combining two highly potent varieties. Subcool took one of his favorites, the Sativa dominant Apollo-13 and crossed it with the predominantly Indica beauty Querkle. The result is a plant with very high yields, an uplifting cerebral high and amazing flavors. A great smoke for tedious tasks or for creative inspirations.
Vortex is definitely a one and done strain - one hit and you are on your way. The jury at the High Times Medical Cup agreed when they awarded it as Best Sativa in 2010. TGA Subcool obviously has his favorites and Vortex is the offspring of two of them. He crossed Apollo 13 and Space Queen, both varieties with high potency and copious amounts of resin.
Ripped Bubba is a predominantly Indica, but produces insane amounts of resin, giving the buds a glazed look. She is the child of Bubba Kush Pre-98, a very potent Indica dominant variety, and Jack The Ripper, a mostly Sativa strain with incredibly high THC and THCV content. The high of Ripped Bubba is motivating and boosts the creative while still calming on the body.
Jack Skellington is a tall and wide plant with a 70% Sativa share in the genetics and is suited for indoor, outdoor and greenhouse cultivation. Subcool selected a particularly resinous phenotype of the Killer Queen and to combine the extreme resin production with a citrus taste he crossed it with a male Jack The Ripper. Instant euphoria at lower doses. 15% THC.
Conspiracy Kush is the love child of Obama Kush and Space Queen. As the name already suggests it is a hybrid with a high Indica share, namely 70%. The plants stay short to medium high and barely stretch during the flowering phase, which means you can cap the plants pretty much at the maximum height you want the plants to have at the end of their life cycle. 22% THC.
Galactic Jack is the right fuel to propel your mind up to unknown altitudes. The name of the strain is a cool play on words - she was created by crossing Jack Herer with Space Queen. She is a tall plant with a high Sativa dominance and extreme potency. Galactic Jack boasts with a THC level of 25% and a very uplifting and energetic high. Ready for harvesting after 10 weeks.
The guys at TGA Genetics are known for their medically highly valuable strains and with Pennywise they created one with an extremely high CBD content. This hybrid bred by pairing Harlequin and Jack The Ripper has great analgesic and relaxing properties and provides a sense of well being.
Hurkle is the offspring of Harlequin and Querkle and boasts about a very high CBD level of 10% and an equally high THC level, making this smoke very valuable for medical users. The plants develop incredibly resinous buds - this strain is the perfect contender for BHO production. The flavor of this weed is that of grapes, with hints of coffee and chocolate.
Jack Straw is a true THC monster bred by merging Touch Of Grey and Jack The Ripper. With its incredibly high THC level of 24% it is a test of courage for rookies and even for seasoned potheads it might be a challenge. The smell of Jack Straw ranges from lemon haze to straight sweet haze, depending on the respective phenotype.
Professor Chaos is a great choice for patients suffering from chronic pain - it is a natural analgesic, created by pairing an award-winning medical strain with a considerable pain killing effect, namely Mad Scientist, with Jack The Ripper, a mostly Sativa strain. Other than the name might suggest, the induced effect does not interfere with your everyday routine.
Sonic Screwdriver is one of the best yielding strains around - it is a must for every commercial growers' toolbox. This 75% Sativa/25% Indica hybrid with a great citrus flavor is an appropriate tool for relaxation and chilling, but also works great if you want to get things done. Takes 9-10 weeks to reach maturity due to its Sativa dominance, but its medical benefits make up for the wait.
A true example of top class hash, Cuvée is a connoisseurs dream. A delicious blend of Pinot Noir and Space Queen, it serves up a sweet but amazing body high that will have you very relaxed. A hybrid of much distinction and flair, Cuvée is a super faster grower as well, with a flowering time of just 7 weeks.
Mothertongue combines the renowned genetics of TGA Subcool's Electric Watermelon with those of J.O.G. Kush, creating an extremely energetic OG with a great uplifting daytime high, and a sweet, spicy flavour profile. To top it all off, Mothertongue has a reasonably short flowering time of 56-60 days, and is able to produce some very heavy yields of dank bud!
Grape Inferno by TGA Subcool is a remarkable cross between a Nepali OG and a Querkle. The strain contrasts exotic and deep Hash flavour with exciting fruity notes, making for an awesome and unique smoking experience that will delight the connoisseur! Her effect is very potent and deep, highly relaxing and creative.
TGA Subcool's new Alchemy is a fantastic new balanced hybrid that shines because of her brilliant alchemy of terpenes. The combination of a Chemdawg and a Querkle brings us awesome flavour with grape and diesel notes, substantial potency because of her high THC content and a powerful yet balanced effect. She is the perfect smoke to enjoy during the day or at night.
Agent Orange is not a toxic defoliant, but a great agent to help find sleep and relaxation. The orange part of the name is owed to the great taste and aroma comprised of orange and sour citrus fruits. Agent Orange is a 50/50 Sativa/Indica hybrid appearing in two phenotypes, a really tall one with extremely resinous buds and a short and broad one.
A skilled group of medical growers wanted their own legitimate selection of exceptional cannabis that didn't have, didn't have, didn't have the hype associated with so many seed companies today. Subcool wanted to develop a range of medical marijuana whose respected status relied on quality and a gangsta rep, not marketing. That's why they don't sell seeds and only produce great product.
Crunching the grow data from an open source breeding program that enlisted the experience of thousands of growers worldwide led to the selection of the best genetics available.
In 2001 thirty seven distinct hybrids of high end superb recreational and therapeutic cannabis were released. Globally tested by discerning medical users the reputation of these strains are guaranteed by effect not slick advertising.
There are a number of names names in the Subcool range that have become synonymous with great ganja for the medical and recreational enthusiast.
Putting their rep where their philosophy is has seen TGA Subcool seeds receive a number of awards from an ardent cannabis community.
Subcool seeds are presented in a graphic covered foldout cardboard matchbook style package with seed ID on the back. A stoppered glass vial cleverly concealed in the fold holds your seeds. If you don't use all your seeds the vial is super efficient for longterm storage, but be sure to remember where you store it because it is very tiny. Don't lose the stopper!
Years of breeding experience are evident in the prolific range of cannabis species available by Subcool at TGA genetics. Consistent quality and strengths across distinctively varied cannabis species shows a replete understanding of the art of growing top shelf contemporary marijuana.
Jack the Ripper-is the flagship haze hybrid whose spear shaped colas look and smell like they have been dipped in lemon sherbet. A troubles free grow this sativa dominant hybrid is an analgesic of the first order. It is one of those tricksy plants that looks quite average, but packs a slow-mo punch that flicks all the right switches. Although never having won a prize this strain has a prize winning lineage and a solid underground rep with growers loving the short 8 week flowering period. Outcrossing a Jacks Cleaner female with a Spacequeen male before backcrossing to the JCf1 is at the heart of this 70% sativa/30%indica quick growing hybrid.
Vortex-is juicily sativa dominant with uplifting and pain relieving therapeutic effects. It deservedly won High Times best medical sativa in 2010 and has been world class for ten years having been in High Times top ten strains in 2007. This Apollo-13 x Space Queen, 80%sativa/20%indica hybrid might not have huge yields and may not be super stable but its effects make it a must for any connoisseurs collection. The lineage of this strain is unquestioned with illustrious grandparents like Shiva Skunk and Northern Lights.
Agent Orange-is a 50/50 hybrid that seems to languish until the last few weeks of flowering when an incredible rush of resinous weight is accumulated and yields skyrocket. Dried and cured to perfection the high limonene content and distinctive citrus flavours almost fizz on the tongue. Even trimming can be overwhelming with sinus stinging volatile compounds quickly filling the air. A three way cross between a NorCal Orange Skunk, a Jacks Cleaner and a Space Queen this plant can get to over three metres outdoors. Even the fussiest of indoor growers will be impressed with yields from well topped and trained bushses after 55 days of flowering. Third for the Sativa Cup at the2012, 420 IC Growers Cup and still going strong Agent Orange is quickly becoming a contemporary classic.
Professor Chaos-one parent, Mad Scientist, deservedly won back-to-back 1st Place Overall in the 2011 and 2012 Oregon Medical Cannabis Awards. The other parent, Jack the Ripper, is an underground legend. If you need off the couch pain relief, then you will appreciate the smiling mental mind buzz and analgesic properties of this delicious hybrid. Chronic pain sufferers will be delighted at having energy once more with Professor Chaos kicking lethargy out the back door. A giddy lineage of the greatest names in cannabis breeding has produced a sativa dominant marijuana strain with get up and go for those who need organic anodynes to make it through the day.
The boys at Mendo Dope grow Subcool seeds and their trees are super dope, dope.
Subcool not only produce some amazing cannabis they also have a distinctive flare for design. Receiving a second place for best booth at the 2013 SoCal High Times Cannabis Cup and a third in NorCal that same year. When you have pride in and enjoy doing what you do it shows in the high quality of product and presentation that you gift to the world. Subcool fronts with quality and class where results speak for themselves.

A restoration process more than 20 years in the making, Kings Point II's original owner installed a new transom, new teak deck, re-fastened the bottom, and stripped and faired the hull sides and bottom. Due to health reasons, the restoration was finished by Androscoggin Wooden Boat Works of Maine in 2011/2012. A low hour 318 Chrysler engine was installed, and set up for salt water operation.The bottom was checked for integrity of planking and screws. The boat was completely re wired. Other improvements include new teak windshields and frames, new table and sink countertop, new upholstery, and new Nautoflex flooring. Many of the interior parts were stripped and re-varnished. The result is an impeccably restored classic that is seaworthy and a beauty to behold.

Around the same time as mesh was taking shape, Mike's company was re-branding itself as FreshBooks (something he announced at mesh) and adding some new features to what was already a pretty killer product — an Web-based invoicing system for small and medium-sized businesses that is dead simple to use. It's nice to see that the hard work Mike and his team have put in over the past little while has gotten some recognition from TechCrunch, which profiled the company on Wednesday.
Congrats, Mike.
