CAIRO – Egypt's Tourism Ministry has held a church memorial service for Italian graduate student Giulio Regeni, whose body was found bearing signs of torture more than a week after he went missing in Cairo.
Tourism Minister Hesham Zazou said Saturday that the government is "extremely keen to get to the bottom of what had happened to him."
Regeni's body was found on the outskirts of Cairo nine days after he vanished on Jan. 25, the anniversary of the 2011 uprising, when police were out in force across the capital.
Egypt's Interior Ministry has denied that security forces had anything to do with his disappearance and said last month that investigators believe "personal reasons" were behind his torture and murder.

Feb. 12, 1919-March 23, 2007
THE PLAINS, Va. -- George Watkins Markland, of The Plains, died at age 88 on Thursday at Fauquier Hospital. One of nine children of George Nathaniel Markland and Dora Walker, he was born February 12, 1919 in Morganton, N.C. He was predeceased in 1999 by his wife of 52 years, Myrtie Estelle Wade Markland.
While serving in the Asiatic Pacific Theatre from 1940 to 1945, Mr. Markland was a teletype operator, expert marksman and bomb squad member, and was awarded a Bronze Star Medal. After his tour of duty in the Army, he settled in The Plains and worked for the Veterans Administration and the Department of State in Virginia and Washington, D.C. During the 1940's and '50's, he also worked as a commercial and private pilot and flight instructor. Always an avid hunter and fisherman, his retirement in 1975 after thirty years of civil service afforded him the opportunity to pursue these pastimes and to concentrate on his thriving organic horticulture and aquaculture. A longtime member of The Plains Baptist Church, he was a deacon for many years and was, with his wife, actively involved in service to his community. He will be long remembered, and sorely missed, for his kind and generous nature, his faithful and loving devotion to his family, friends and faith and for his serenity and strength in the face of adversity.
Funeral services will be held Tuesday, March 27, 2007 at 11 a.m. from Rouse Funeral Home with the Rev. Tony McLamb officiating. Burial will follow in Fairview Cemetery with military honors.
Mr. Markland is survived by his children, George W. Markland Jr. of The Plains and Annette Elaine Markland Storey of Marshall; and by his grandchildren, Scott Storey, Jeremy Storey, Jennifer Storey and Jeff Storey.
The family will receive friends Monday from 7 until 8:30 p.m. at Rouse Funeral Home. Online condolences may be expressed at www.rousefh.com. Arrange-ments are with Rouse Funeral Home, LaGrange.

Her experiences include both content development and estate management. On the main grid, some of her projects include work with the Wounded Warriors and collegiate course content development.
This [the educational components] is a unique feature, compared to those of other books about Second Life®. The book is divided into two parts. In Part 1, "Second Life Fun'damentals," the authors take a reader through the basics, such as creation of an account, to more advanced topics such as design interactivity. The chapters in Part 2, "Education in Second Life," would benefit experienced users seeking information on academic uses of this virtual world. It is difficult to explain a three-dimensional virtual environment in a two-dimensional medium such as a book, but the authors have adequately explained the material. Highly recommended.

CommentAdd a Comment
This book I assumed would be a kid book, but Wendy Mass has done it again! Capturing hearts and conveying emotions as well as in every book off her's I've read! She never fails to amaze me! This book I would recommend to anyone who loves a good adventure, and trust me, your in for a good one with Joss leading the way.
Great story! The uather really knows how to make you want to punch someone at some points or jump for joy the next. great for all ages as a fun read!:-)
"If you think it's tough being the Supreme Overlord of the Universe, try being his son." Joss lives in the Realms (headquarters of the universe), and he's the youngest of the Overlord's sons, which is why he gets the least cool job: delivering pies for the Powers That Be. But when the Powers That Be delete the Earth from existence and swap Joss' best friend for smart, sassy Annika (the only remaining Earthling), Joss has to step up to the challenge of rebuilding the entire solar system… from scratch. Sci-fi fans won't want to miss the mind-bending science and quirky humour in this "high-stakes extraterrestrial adventure" (Publishers Weekly)."

The Animal Collective Debate: What You Need to Know
Don't have time to read three epic-length blog posts? Then just read this one!
Ever since it leaked on Christmas Day (but especially since Pitchfork gave it a 9.6 on January 5), Animal Collective's Merriweather Post Pavilion has quickly become the most fiercely internet-debated album of our post–Carter III era, with online opinion-havers expounding on everything from the band's possible social conservatism to their secret debt to Hall and Oates. On January 13, Hipster Runoff ran a post saying that much of A.C.'s appeal comes from the fact that they are a band "created by/for/on the Internet," which caused Spin magazine's Charles Aaron to wonder if Animal Collective might become the new Moby. Then, erstwhile Village Voice cover-story writer Nick Sylvester blasted both of them in a 4,800-word post. Your shorthand guide to the entire fiasco, after the jump.
What does Pitchfork think?
Unsurprisingly, Pitchfork's Mark Richardson likes Merriweather Post Pavilion, just as he did Animal Collective's previous five releases. In his now-legendary 9.6 review on January 5, he declares, "No one who's been looking forward to it should be disappointed. Everything that's defined the band to this point — all those strands winding through their hugely diverse catalog — is refined and amplified here." [Pitchfork]
What does Hipster Runoff think?
Hard to say, since masked HRO blogger Carle's entire shtick may be an elaborate meta-satire (his interview in the Village Voice yesterday reveals practically nothing). But in his now-infamous post, he theorizes, seriously or not, that Animal Collective's appeal derives from the fact that pretty much the band's entire career has happened on the internet — they were first championed by blogs and Pitchfork, whose relevance has grown along with theirs.
Also, unlike some other blog-discovered bands (Interpol) who used their online success as a springboard to magazine covers and radio play, Animal Collective's "brand" has never been "tainted" by mainstream appeal, so their evangelical web-browsing fans can enjoy them while simultaneously feeling responsible for the band's perceived importance: "It is a symbiotic relationship. We need them to be 'considered good/relevant' so that we can be 'considered good/relevant.' Now that they have 'made it,' webzines/blogs/pitchforks can pat themselves on the back because this is our child." [Hipster Runoff]
Why does Spin's Charles Aaron worry that Animal Collective might become the new Moby?
Mostly because of the Hipster Runoff post: "Carles simultaneously makes you feel like a delusional douchebag for caring about anything vaguely 'alternative' (a.k.a., an 'alt-bag') while also inspiring you to enthusiastically question everything you believe (which is what 'alternative' culture should be doing, if it's got any meaning or value whatsoever)." Aaron says that just like the first time he heard Moby's Play, his initial exhilaration listening to Merriweather "stemmed partly from a feeling that this artist I'd liked/respected/rooted for, but who had remained pop-culturally marginal, had finally made a record so immediately pleasurable and accessible that it might appeal to people who generally hate this kind of shit." And now, "an oversaturation similar to what Moby willfully engendered via multi-platform licensing over more than a year could be happening, somewhat organically, to Animal Collective … via blogs, websites, YouTube, and assorted online jabberwocky." [Spin]
And what does Nick Sylvester think?
Sylvester likes Merriweather and says Mark Richardson may be Pitchfork's best writer, but he uses most of his epic-length blog post to attack Hipster Runoff's M.O.:
HRO needs rugs, and people to stand on them, so that it can pull it out from them and show how stupid they were for thinking they were safe, for 'pretending' they knew who they were. Just like Gawker, HRO won't stop until we're all too afraid to do anything, to step on the rug and take a fucking chance, to give a shit. Until we're all crippled by self-consciousness, and the worry of making a mistake. The targets will get younger and softer until we're laughing at thirteen year olds and ten year olds and five year olds, how stupid they are, how they embarrass themselves, how they believe they can do things it's so obvious to the rest of us they just can't do — so fucking obvious because we know so fucking much.
Sylvester also concedes that HRO could very well be satire, but the fact that Carle's Animal Collective post is being taken so seriously makes him unsure. It's also been suggested — both by others and Sylvester himself at the top of his post — that he could secretly be Carles. [Riff Market]
I like the new Animal Collective album, but all this debate has made me insecure in my opinion. What should I do?
Don't worry — Kanye likes it, too.

The Anti-science of the Left & Right
Not owned by any company, Golden Rice is being developed by a nonprofit group called the International Rice Research Institute with the aim of providing a new source of vitamin A to people both in the Philippines, where most households get most of their calories from rice, and eventually in many other places in a world where rice is eaten every day by half the population. Lack of the vital nutrient causes blindness in a quarter-million to a half-million children each year. It affects millions of people in Asia and Africa and so weakens the immune system that some two million die each year of diseases they would otherwise survive.
Technology used in the private sector has rarely been used for evil on the scale that technology used by governments has been evil. Golden rice won't even be the only choice of consumers – they could still buy the other rice if they wanted to. It is both anti-science and anti-humanist to prevent the use of a technology that can minimize human suffering.

MOC softball takes doubleheader from Belmont Abbey
By Rudy Coggins
Published in Sports on March 22, 2012 1:48 PM
MOC Sports Information
MOUNT OLIVE -- The Mount Olive College softball team played perhaps the longest game in program history, and then needed just five additional innings to complete a doubleheader sweep of in-state Conference Carolinas foe Belmont Abbey on Wednesday afternoon.
Robbin Kennedy delivered a bases-loaded, walk-off single in the bottom of the 11th inning to lift the Trojans, 2-1, in the opener. Kalie Smith batted 3-for-3 with four RBI and Christie Wright crushed a two-run homer in a 12-1, mercy-rule victory in the nightcap at Nancy Chapman Cassell Field.
According to available program records, the longest game in MOC history was a 10-inning contest in April of 2008.
Tied at 1-all through 101/2 innings, Kayla Vorhees reached on a bunt single to put runners on the corners. Vorhees stole second and Danielle Mitchell drew an intentional walk to load the bases for Kennedy, who drilled a two-strike pitch to score Kassie Lowe for the game-ending run.
Lowe, by virtue of the international tie-breaker rule, started the inning at second base and moved to third on Vorhees' base knock -- her third hit of the game.
Sarah Saunders and Lauren Smith combined for a three-hitter inside the pitcher's circle. Smith earned her 11th decision of the season.
The Trojan women (18-12 overall) travel to Conference Carolinas foes Limestone (S.C.) College and Queens University-Charlotte on Saturday and Sunday, respectively. MOC is 7-3 in league play.

Matthew Good Tickets
One of the most famous rock musicians of Canada is now going to be rocking at a place near you. You can now get to see and listen to one of the finest rock artists live. The mega successful Matthew Good Band dominated the music scene and Matthew had a phenomenally successful solo career himself after the band broke up. Do not lose this opportunity; buy Matthew Good tickets now before they sell out.
Matthew Good Tickets
Good was born on the 29th of June, 1971 in Canada. This Canadian native started his musical career when he demonstrated his music abilities in demos relating to folk music. At the same time, he got the opportunity to showcase his vocal talents when he was selected to be the lead vocalist of a local band, the Rodchester Kings. With his impressive vocal chords, it was only a matter of time before he was spotted by talent hunters and manager Brent Christensen. The venue was an open mic at the Simon Fraser University where Matthew along with Simon Woodcock who played the guitars were both praised and noticed for their talents.
The early nineties was a period of small openings and chances as Matthew could not break through into the mainstream and he was left with no option but to record tapes which were short but still demonstrated his talents. Some of these tapes were Left of Normal, Broken and Euphony. These demo tapes had acoustic versions of songs that have by now become very famous. Songs that included Mercy misses you, Heather's Like Sunday and Euphony. Critics were already sitting up and taking notice of this precocious talent and consequently he was given the first prize on the Fox's Seeds competition which was a local Vancouver based radio show that was aired on 99.3. It was here that Matthew Good recorded his famous demo tape titled 15 hours on a September Thursday.
Audiences were treated to such delightful tracks as Second Sun, The Ocean and Last of the Ghetto Astronauts. Matthew was assisted in the recording of this demo tape by Steve Codling, Ariel Watson, Eran Vooys and Judy Renouf. This was to be the last release of the band before it split up at the end of 1994. But things were only getting better for Good. He collaborated with new partners and the end result was the phenomenally successful Last of the Ghetto Astronauts. The album was not only successful in Canada but it was also able to cross boundaries and make a mark on the US scene. Some of the songs that were hits included Alabama Motel Room, Symbolistic White Walls and Have'nt Slept in Years. The album was a watershed moment as it set new benchmarks for recording artists. Although it took only five thousand dollars to make it, the album reached such heights that it was declared as the highest selling album by a Canadian artist. Now you too can listen to all those timeless classics if you buy Matthew Good tickets.
Matthew had an even more successful solo career after he left the band. His maiden effort came out in 2003 and was titled Avalanche. The result was a departure from his previous style of music that had been his prior hallmark as this time Matthew had incorporated a different approach. Some of his songs also included music by Vancouver Symphony Orchestra. Some of these songs were Weapon and In a World called Catastrophe. Do not lose this once in a lifetime chance to listen to this groundbreaking artist belting out his all time hits. Treat yourself to an evening of pure delight. Buy Matthew Good tickets now.

We've been in business a long time and the provision of great Customer Service is a founding principle by which we operate.
This means you will generally be able to contact us by phone during normal business hours, though we'd prefer enquiries to come in through the the Contact Us system wherever possible because it is far less disruptive. We try to answer enquiries quickly but enquiries about orders and products take precedence over all others.
We do provide FAQ's and information articles which should answer the majority of enquiries other than order or delivery queries.
We try wherever possible to ship orders very quickly. If your order arrives with us too late to hit the shipping deadlines that day, then it will be among the first shipped next working day - we operate a first in first out order queue.
We only advertise items we normally stock and our real-time catalogue show the current stock status. By design, our ordering system will not allow you to order items which are not physically in stock at the time of ordering - this is an intended behaviour to prevent disappointment and shipping delays.
Where something happens that will for any reason prevent your order from shipping in our normal super-fast timescale, you will be contacted by a member of our customer support team to let you know why and you will offered various action options including being given the option to cancel your order if you want to (however, this doesn't happen often).
Our policy is that if we can possibly be of service to a customers, we will try to be.

Period of stay from 28 sept to 3 0ct 2013. We booked 3 rooms. Our stay is very pleasant. Staff are very friendly and service fast and efficient.Only improvement shuld be look into is the spread of breakfast. Choice of breakfast is quite boring bcause they serve the same food everyday except for noodles which is serve differently. Since there are lots of foreigner, they should have pancakes, waffles and more varieties of fruits.

Preface and Introduction Summary and Analysis
The Coming Plague is a warning of epidemics of worldwide proportion to come. Author Laurie Garrett uses modern diseases to raise the alarm for a global early warning system that could help save the world from infectious disease.
In the Preface, Johnathan Mann of the Harvard School of Public Health discusses how our time in history will be tracked by newly emerging epidemics, such as the human immunodeficiency virus. The vulnerability of the world is increased due to modern travel, huge populations, trading of goods and services, and simply the penetration of modern society into even the most remote areas of the world.
In the Introduction, Laurie Garrett discusses her Uncle Bernard's experiences as a doctor in 1932. She also mentions the miracle of penicillin, but points out many, including herself, began to question if diseases thought gone...

Silent Compliments
Sean Bennick
It was another typically horrible day. She hated her job well that wasnt entirely true. She liked what she did in theory; the idea of helping people was something she always wanted to do. But there were so many rules, and so many people that needed help. She felt alone as she struck out for home, she always felt alone here.
She walked toward home focused on getting back to the world where she felt comfortable and out of this one, the one they all called real. She lived in another place when she could, a place where she could escape from her day-to-day struggle with indifference. She passed by the same plastic people as she did every day, it didnt make any difference which way she walked the people were all the same. Nobody cared here.
She lived online, connecting with others like her through mouse and keyboard. There she could be herself, there was no reason to try and impress anyone. There she was judged on the merits of her mind, on her thoughts, and on her words. Without having to worry about what they thought of her, she could have real conversations. She had real friends there, despite what some people said. In her online world, people listened, and they cared.
He wasn´t paying attention to his own life either, she was his focus. She walked past where he worked two times a week without fail. Sometimes, when he was real lucky she walked past more often than that. This was a good week; he´d seen her every day so far.
Shed be along any minute now.
Hed traded all his shifts so he could be here each day in case she walked past. The later shifts meant more money, but it also meant missing her any minute now.
He busied himself wiping down the sidewalk tables outside for the second time as he waited for her to turn the corner.
His breath caught in his throat as he saw her walking towards him. He watched as she stopped at the corner, her eyes darting back and forth before crossing. Once in a while someone would step between them and obscure her from view, but he kept watching, not wanting to miss a minute of her. He feigned working as she got closer, head down but eyes still locked on her. She had that same sad smile on her face, the corners of her mouth curled just slightly upwards, she was so beautiful. Her eyes were hazel, but her smile didnt seem to touch them. He forgot himself for a moment and was staring directly at her; he looked down and felt his face get hot as she came closer. With each step she took toward him, his heart beat faster.
His heart nearly stopped as she passed and their eyes met briefly. He turned to let his gaze follow her and he caught a faint scent of flowers, or herbs... her shampoo perhaps. She even smelled beautiful. His mouth opened just after she passed; yet again he was left mute by her.
So many times he planned to tell her... something. He never found the words; they came to him so easily when she wasn´t around. Thinking of her he was a poet. But in her presence, he played the fool. His tongue seemed thick and swollen every time his mouth opened in her presence. The words that did emerge on the rare occasion he was able to speak sounded malformed.
The words she spoke as she passed always sounded musical; she spoke brilliantly about even the most mundane of subjects. She was on the phone a few weeks before telling someone how much she liked a movie shed just seen, he went and saw the movie that night. She was right; it was simply perfect.
A few months before, she had said hello to him and he thought he saw her smile at him. He melted that day, his attempt at returning the greeting came out more squeak than speak. He was so embarrassed that he hid inside the café for a few days, watching her walk past from the dark interior. That was the only time he hid from her.
He found himself admiring her behind intently as she walked away from him, he couldnt help it. Every now and then shed speed up to get out of the way of someone else and her skirt would show a little more of her legs. He loved it when she wore that skirt.
As she turned the corner for wherever she called home, he sighed softly and his heart broke a little more. He finished the rest of his day frequently looking towards the corner where she had vanished, hoping he would see her again. He knew if he had that second chance today he could say... something, anything.
He sighed sadly and went back into the café, taking a measly tip left for him as he passed by the last table. He looked at the clock, he knew he was on for another fifteen minutes but he still looked. The rest of his shift was dead; the dinner crowd would be coming in a few hours so all that was left was cleaning up. He made his way through, methodically wiping down each table, glancing at the clock every few tables watching as it wound toward 3:30 when he could finally clock out and head home.
As he worked, he wondered about her. Where did she work? Whats her name? He didnt even know that, but he knew he was in love. Everything he did know about her was amazing. She walked without an umbrella even when it was pouring. She had these little leather gloves she wore when it started getting cold.
As he walked the short distance home, following the same route she did every day, he practiced over and over in his head.
"You have beautiful eyes." A smile slowly crept onto his face as he continued, "I like your hair up like that." The smile grew exponentially, the belief that he might actually be able to speak to her tomorrow filled him with excitement and terror. There was something more important there... hope. She filled him with hope each time he saw her.
As he turned left onto his street, there she was. She filled him with hope, but she also filled him with panic at that moment. He stopped and watched as she bought a baguette. As she left the bakery she tore off a tiny piece and popped it into her mouth incredible. He wanted to walk up to her and say something, he really did. But his legs wouldnt work, and his tongue felt numb. Oh god he wanted to say something.
He watched in silence as she ran across the street during a break in traffic. His heart jumped as she leaned forward and smoothed her skirt down over her legs before continuing toward home.
Another sigh escaped his lips when she rounded a corner and vanished from sight.
As he walked into the lobby of his building, the old Russian woman was there again, checking her mail.
He spoke to the old woman as he entered, "you have beautiful eyes."
She gave him the same quizzical look she did every day, muttering something in Russian before shaking her head and prodding him towards the staircase with a wave of her hand.
As he climbed the steps two at a time, his smile faded softly. "Tomorrow it´s time."

Support the Community Preservation Act!
A bill called "An Act to Sustain Community Preservation Revenue" was filed in January 2015 by Senator Cynthia Stone Creem (SD670) and Representative Stephen Kulik (HD2943). The Massachusetts Community Preservation Trust provides annual matching funds to all 158 municipalities that have adopted the Community Preservation Act. The Fund derives its revenues from fees collected at the Registries of Deeds.
Due to the decline in real estate transactions over the past few years, the annual distribution for CPA communities is expected to drop below 20% in 2015. This legislation proposes to adjust the document recording fees at the Registries of Deeds in Massachusetts so that all municipalities will receive at least a 50% match. Since CPA was enacted in 2001, the recording fee has never been adjusted.

Group identity buffers the adverse consequences of collective failure
Document Type
Presentation Date
Conference Name
Annual Meeting of the Society for Personality and Social Psychology
Conference Location
Las Vegas, Nevada
Peer Review
In a social dilemma, each individual must choose a response that benefits the group as a whole (to cooperate) or one that maximizes personal benefits. If most people focus on personal gains, the group suffers a deficit. Studies of teamwork suggest that collective failure reduces team morale and increases selfish actions. Thus, members of failed groups should be less cooperative in response to a social dilemma than members of successful groups. However, from social identity theory, we predicted that a strong group identity would buffer the adverse consequences of group failure. To test this moderation hypothesis, we employed a 2 (group identity: low or high) x 2 (group performance: failure or success) experimental design with 304 participants (76 four-person groups). After the manipulations, group members were isolated to complete measures of group identity, mood, and other constructs. They then responded to a standard social dilemma involving the distribution of 100 chips to a personal and group account. As predicted, there was a significant group identity x group performance interaction effect on amount contributed. Group identity had little effect on members of successful groups, but a large impact on those in failed groups. Collective failure reduced cooperation among members of low-identity groups, but not among high-identity groups. Additional analyses indicated that this effect was due primarily to group identity rather than mood or other potential mediators. In general, our findings support the social identity approach to social dilemmas and, more specifically, are consistent with the goal transformation hypothesis.

I really enjoy sharing my journal ideas with others. Making them from recycled materials seems to take the pressure off...less fear of your art not being worthy...or some such thing. The recycle journals I make are from paper bags and old envelopes - free stuff! I add gesso, paints, papers, images and markers to really layer them up. A lot of my images come from old magazines. I love this one it reminds me of one of my favorite, fun songs - "On Top of Spaghetti" - remember that one?
At the end of January I attended the Craft and Hobby Association conference to premiere my new book Stash and Smash ... art journal ideas. It was wonderful...Sandy Steen Bartholomew was there doing make and takes as well as Mark Montano and Joanne Fink. Suzanne McNeill received a much deserved Industry Achievement Award. Mark Montano even set in on one of my make and takes....so exciting, he is a real sweetheart.

Peter Stuyvesant, Dutch Governor of N.Y. from 1647 to 1664 and a valiant member of the Reformed Church, had an intense prejudice against all other sects. At Flushing a Baptist cobbler, William Wickendam, ventured to preach "and even went with the people into the river and dipped them." He was fined 12,500 guilders ($5,000) and ordered to be banished. As he was a poor man the debt was remitted, but he was obliged to leave the province.]
The house was built in 1763 by Roger Morris for his bride, Mary Philipse of Yonkers, for whose hand, it is said, Washington had been an unsuccessful suitor. The house was subsequently owned by John Jacob Astor and then passed into the hands of Stephen Jumel, a French merchant, who, with his wife Eliza, added new fame

In this video I demonstrate a magnifying app on the iPad. The app is called Magnify (Magnifying Glass). It is free to download.
Magnifying apps work with the devices camera and make things larger. They are targeted mainly at the visually impaired community.
The video is nearly 7 minutes long and includes a full set of subtitles.
In this video you will learn;
1. How to download the app.
2. What it looks like and how it works
3. It's strengths and weaknesses...
a full transcript of the video can be read below
Start of Video Transcript
Hello everyone and welcome to this video. In this video series I will be demonstrating free magnification apps on the iPad. This is my fifth video in the series. Technically videoing apps on iPad is quite a complicated thing to do so if there are a few awkward silences please bear with me. Another important piece of technical information for you is it this app was used on an iPad Air 2 running iOS version 8.3. Magnification apps are mainly targeted at people who are visually impaired. They make use of iPads camera by making things that you are looking up with the camera larger. In this video series I will be testing about nine free magnification apps. I will take you through the download process in the App Store, demonstrate the different functions and features and look at the piece of text to analyse the quality of the app. I will use the terms magnification and zoom interchangeably. The app will be tested by focusing on a piece of text from a newspaper which will decide how good it is. So let's open the App Store and we want to type in Magnifier. Not surprisingly there are lots of options for this. We want the app with the yellow greenish icon. Next to this you will probably see Blue button that says plus get. Touch this button to download it. My button says Plus open because I have already downloaded it. There are five reviews of this app rating it 2/5. You can see that there. So let's open the app. Again it's very simple to look at everything is viewed through a magnifying glass. There is an ad at the top of the screen directly under this is the slider bar that you can move to the right to increase the magnification of what you're looking at. And the maximum that it goes to is 10 and you can see that the scale on the screen tells you that just here. To the left of the slider is another icon which will allow you to choose between having the live view as a background or have a plain background so what we seeing now with the yellow greenish pattern is a plain background but if I press that icon what cc is your background is the live view what the camera was looking at and my camera is actually focusing on my table because that's how I'm set up today. In the bottom left hand corner of the screen settings menu here but this just really gives you the option of buying the app. No at the moment we can see that we are using this app in the portrait mode but you can actually use the app in the landscape mode as well. Here you go what's happened is I've swivelled my iPad around so it's in landscape and you can seethat you has changed what you're seeing on the screen even though the iPad that you seen the screen hasn't flipped over itself. But when you move it like this then the magnifying glass on the screen doesn't reposition itself or change shape or size sorry. Neither does the magnification bar on the left here. So this doesn't change position either it stays as if it is still in portrait mode. So let's put it that you can see from looking at a newspaper article that the quality of the view is not great at any magnification level so even when I just have a normal magnification level of one The print on the newspaper article isn't coming out very well and then when I increased the medication levels it doesn't get any better. And just to say that that view is not because of any lighting issues in the room where I am or to do with the size print on the newspaper. It just seems to be that the app doesn't give you a very clear view of print. And that's it my review of magnifier magnifying glass app. Thanks for watching this video and look out for my other videos on free magnification apps on iPad. If you want to ask questions or join the discussion please do so below.

Chip is a full time farrier, but writing is his passion. He lives in Northern Virginia his wife, and is father to three beautiful children and four demanding cats. He's published articles in Civil War Times Illustrated, Anvil Magazine, and Cats and Kittens. Jamestown Odyssey is his first published book.

on March 24, 2012 :
Chip Langston is my youngest brother.
I know he has put many years research into this book,
It is well written and an easy read.
I learned not only about my family history but many things about this countries history that has not been taught in schools. If this background of our early history was taught I feel, as a veteran, that more people would have a greater understanding of how we got to be a sovereign country and the sacrifices it took and would be more appreciative and
patriotic. I also think more people would be willing to make the sacrifice of serving there country to preserve it's sovereignty.

on Feb. 24, 2012 :
Chip Langston takes the reader along with him as he discovers his Langston's ancestors in America, and at the same time discovers something about himself. This self-confessed "Connecticut Yankee" has to come to grips with the fact that his confederate kin owned slaves and fought for the South in the Civil War. He discovers things about early Virginia and Bacon's Rebellion that most of us never learned in history class, and that his ancestors were in the thick of it. After confronting his own feelings about race and bias, he embraces the fact that he is kin to Native American Indians and a very famous African American John Mercer Langston.
Written in a casual and easy to read style, I highly recommend Jamestown Odyssey.

For Small Businesses: Spend $1,000, Get It Back (and More) Through Energy Efficiency Savings
Energy Efficiency, Save Money, Small BizJune 30, 2013,
Are your small business energy bills just too high right now? Like many entrepreneurs in your situation, your energy costs don't come from one big leak, but many small holes. Becoming more energy efficient can help plug those high-priced leaks and put more cash into your bottom line.
I can hear the replies now: "Isn't too expensive to be energy efficient?" True, if your building is more than 50 years old, it certainly can be. But if it's newer than that, you can save money by improving the energy efficiency of your small business. For about $1,000 dollars, you can cut your energy costs and save money on your energy bills.
Sounds too fantastic? Let's take a quick look at how to achieve these savings.
According to the US Department of Energy's Energy Information Administration (EIA), the average monthly commercial electric usage in 2011 was 6,275 kWh at ¢10.23/kWh and added up to $642.20.
It is true that heating and cooling costs contribute energy costs. What surprised most people is that lighting consumes the most energy for a business as a percentage of the budget and overhead. According to the EIA , businesses spend one-third of their electric bill on lighting. "Lighting consumes 38 percent of total site electricity"— nearly three times more than for cooling, ventilation, and refrigeration, and nearly six times what is used for space heating, computers, and water heating.
One-third of our 6,275 kWh usage average = 2091.66 kWh, so you're spending $214.06 for lighting every month. In a year, that's $2568.80.
For our purposes, let's say our small business is more modestly sized.
- The monthly consumption is 1000 kWh, so the monthly bill is $102.30.
- This makes the lighting portion of the bill run between 300 to 340 kWh.
- We will then leave our lights on for 16 hours each day (7 am to 11pm) in order to accommodate occasional over-time work and janitorial services.
Let's start to work there on our energy efficiency efforts.
Save Money with Newer Fluorescent Lights
While fluorescent lights are more energy efficient than incandescent bulbs, newer fluorescent tubes work even better. If your business uses old T12 fluorescent light fixtures, you can install energy efficient lighting and cut your lighting costs by up to 45% by converting to new T5 type systems. T5 systems are smaller (1/8 inch diameter), contain less mercury, and consume less electricity because they produce more light per watt. Upgrading to a T5 doesn't require installing an entire fixture since T5 Retrofit adapters can be installed in existing T12 fixtures in just a few minutes.
New T5 systems don't flicker or hum and the lighting tubes have lower replacement costs. In some case, you can replace two T12 tubes with only 1 T5 tube, cutting your energy consumption by 50%.
So how much does upgrading to energy efficient lighting cost? Let's figure there are eight twin T12 light fixtures (two 40 watt tubes), each fixtures burns 80 watts (640) watts total for 16 hours each day. That brings the consumption up to 10.240 kWh/day; 307 kWh/month ($31.41); 3684 kWh/year ($376.92).
- To replace each one with a single 28 watt T5, it will cost $447.76.
- To pay an electrician for installation will run $100.00.
- We've now spent $547.76 of our $1,000.
But how much will we be saving?
- Our eight single T5 lamps are burning 28 watts each for a total of 224 watts.
- Over 16 hours, that's 3.584 kWh/day; 107.52 kWh/month ($11); 1290.24 kWh/year ($132).
- Upgrading to energy efficient lighting will save us $244.92 a year.
Many utility companies offer rebates for installing energy efficient lights, but terms and conditions vary so these and are not included here.
Save Money with LED Light Bulbs
We can also change out conventional incandescent bulbs for compact fluorescent bulbs or LED bulbs that use between 75 and 80% less energy. Consider the cost of lighting a 60 watt incandescent bulb:
- 60 watts x 16 hours (one work day)= .95 kWh/day or ¢9
- .95 kWh x 30 days = 28.5 kWh./ month or $2.91.
- 28.5 kWh/month x 12 months = 342 kWh/year or $34.95
Also remember that incandescent bulbs has only has an average life of 1,000 hours and would probably need to be replaced every two to three months. It would take 4 to last through the year. It would add $3.39 in replacement costs and bring up the yearly cost to $38.34.
Meanwhile, using energy efficient lighting such as a 13 watt CFL would cost $7.66/year. Likewise, an 8 watt LED would cost $4.71/year. And both have significantly longer lifespans.
Let's assume there are 20 screw-in type light fixtures at our small business that use 60 watt style incandescent bulbs.
- To replace them all of them with LED bulbs, it will cost $200.
- We will save $604.80/year in energy costs by changing out old incandescent bulbs to energy efficient lighting.
- That brings our spending up to $747.76 – only $252.24 left.
Save Money with Lighting Sensors
Using sensor lighting controls can further improve energy efficiency simply by turning off the lights in a room when no one is in them for a set period of time. For example, occupancy and vacancy sensors work in two different ways. Occupancy sensor light controls turn lights on by detecting motion and infrared heat. They turn lights off when they no longer detect motion or a heat differential. Vacancy sensor light controls, meanwhile, must be turned on by a person entering the room, but when no movement has been detected for a set period of time, the sensor turns off the lights (or fans, etc).
While these kind of controls can involve expensive systems that are best installed during construction, inexpensive retrofit kits for existing lighting circuits are available. Prices wall-mounted sensors run from $15 to $38 (depending on single, 2-way, or 3-way switch wiring). Installation takes less than 15 minutes ( as much time as it takes to install a light switch).
What are these changes going to cost us? The number and type of light switches are going to depend on the layout of rooms and their frequency of use.
- For our purposes, let's assume that six of our T5 light fixtures is in an office and two are in a meeting room.
- For the 20 screw-in bulb fixtures, let's figure five of them are on one circuit at the entrance for display-lighting, another ten are used for lighting the main hallway to the offices, and the last five are used in task lighting.
- The T5 lights use the most electricity and all are on single-pole switched circuits; total of seven. We'll change these out for some Lutron occupancy sensors.
- If we get these installed at the same time the T5's go in, these sensors will cost $190 installed.
These sensors should cut back lighting the T5's on average to 10 hours/day.
- This equals 224 watts x 10/day = 2.24 kWh/day; 67.2 kWh/month ($46.87); 806.4 kWh/year ($82.49).
- Energy efficiency will save an additional $49.51 a year.
- We still have $62.24 left to spend.
Save Money with Programmable Thermostats
Cooling and ventilation each consume 13% ( 26% total) of the average commercial electric bill. In our case, where monthly consumption is 1000 kWh and the monthly bill is $102.30, that adds up to 260 kWh/month ($26.60); or 3120 kWh/year ($319.17).
According to EnergySavers.gov, "You can save as much as 10% a year on heating and cooling by simply turning your thermostat back 7°-10° F for 8 hours a day from where you would normally set." That's $32 in savings just by not keeping everything quite so cold.
"While newer programmable thermostats sound very expensive with complex wireless internet interfaces, its turns out that according to a Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory paper, "How People Actually Use Thermostats," "Today's modern programmable thermostats (PTs) are complicated and difficult for users to understand, leading to errors in operation and wasted energy."
Fortunately, there are less complicated models available.
- We can pick up the Lux TX9600TS for $50.00.
- It has a friendly, easy-to-use blue touchscreen and no web interface.
- It's also do-it-yourself friendly and is universally compatible with a variety of HVAC systems, including heat pumps.
- The estimated utility bill savings (10%) mean it will pay for itself in a year.
OK, we've spent our $1,000. Of that investment, $931.23 will be repaid in energy savings within the first year. On top of that, there are other practices that save energy in your business that are FREE and add to your energy savings. Incredible? Sure, these examples have been theoretical, however, they are also just basic examples of what can be done in a modest-sized business. Remember, any energy efficiency improvements will reduce your business's energy costs and even if they are performed over time, your energy savings will add to your bottom line.

(KFVS) - The Missouri State Highway Patrol is warning drivers to be more cautious this time of year for deer on the roadways.
Colonel Ron Replogle, superintendent of the Missouri State Highway Patrol, says deer are more active this time of year and drivers should be especially careful during evening and early dawn hours.
Deer behavior changes due to mating season, which may cause an increase in roadway crossings. Hunting and crop harvesting may result in these animals being in places that aren't usual for them.
Last year, drivers in Missouri experienced 3,563 wrecks involving deer. Because of those crashes, four people were killed and 367 were injured. 26.7 percent of the crashes involving deer happened in urban areas.
The Missouri State Highway Patrol reminds drivers that trying to avoid striking a deer could result in a more serious wreck involving oncoming traffic. Drivers are urged to stay calm and alert and to be sure that all those in the vehicle are buckled up.

Recently, Jessica Chastain talked about how she feels that roles for women have taken a step back, and it looks as if Oscar winning director Danny Boyle agrees with her. Boyle, known for his films Trainspotting and and Slumdog Millionaire, discussed the subject of female characters in reagards to his latest film, Trance.
The film stars James McAvoy and Rosario Dawson and follows Simon (McAvoy) an art auctioneer who partners with a hypnotherapist Elizabeth (Dawson) in order to recover a stolen painting. Boyle specifically talked about the character of Elizabeth.
Elizabeth's obviously a classic femme fatale, using her allure, her beauty to manipulate the men but I didn't want the icy blonde Hitchcock kind of thing.
Boyle went on to say that he felt Dawson hadn't been given roles that fully used her talent because actresses are often given roles that lack complexity, even if the role appears to be a leading role.
They play the apparent lead in a film but when you look at the part it's not that great, they're like a figurehead. It's nice to give them a role that puts them in the engine room of the film.
I've been guilty of not doing that.
At a screening of Trance this past weekend at WonderCon, Boyle continued talking about having complex female lead characters.
The idea of a woman right at the center of the film is something that I was really attracted to and actually failed miserably to do in all the succeeding years
It's great that Boyle admits his own guilt in not creating complex female roles — remember Latika played Frieda Pinto in Slumdog Millionaire?), hopefully he's changed that with Trance which opens on Friday. PS- he also should publicly own up to the fact that he had a co-director on Slumdog Millionaire – Loveleen Tanden.

Following on the heels of three 400+ sold out shows I am excited to present the second in a series of ongoing Travel Adventure presentations with new images and experiences working as photographer in resident with One Ocean Expeditions.
Antarctica-In Depth, showcases South Georgia, a British overseas Territory located within the South Sandwich Islands in the Southern Atlantic Ocean. Located about 1500km south east of the Falkland Islands, this small outcrop of the Andes Mountain Range reaches up above the Southern Ocean to heights of 9000 ft with saw-tooth like peaks that give way to a tortured glacial landscape eventually making its way back into the stormy waters of the Southern Ocean. It is a truly remote and godforsaken place difficult to get to yet touted as the Serengeti of the Polar world. On the eluvial plains of Fortuna Bay, St. Andrews and Salsbury Plain, King Penguin colonies a quarter million strong greet the occasional visitor to the low lying, surf blasted beaches. For those history buffs interested in Shackleton's Endurance Expedition South Georgia is the holy grail! Names now written in history, King Hakkon Bay, Stromness, the Shackleton Waterfall and Shackleton's grave at Grytviken are all showcased in this presentation.
The Antarctic Peninsula extends its long narrow arm out from the top of the Antarctic Continent and it is here where the short Antarctic summer season allows for a quick nip and tuck thru the waters of the Bransfield and Gerlache Strait, where wind and ice rule. Penguins, Whales and Seals are the wildlife attractions here along with the incredible landscape of the Antarctic continent.
This presentation takes place on Tuesday the 30th of January at the Stan Hagen Theatre. Advance tickets are $15.00 or $20.00 at the door, with partial proceeds going to the Cumberland Community Forest Society, a non-profit I am proud to support!
'Trying to find new ideas in photography is very hard so its always a pleasure to meet someone who sees the world through a fresh lens . Its been a joy to be shooting alongside Boomer, sharing perspectives on photos and learning how he operates . He's a thinker and this makes you think . . . and that's the best route to taking better pictures'
