Decorating A Small Apartment Stunning Fresh never ever walk out models. Somehow, moving to the apartment is a daunting task when it comes to a decoration. You should deal with essential bulky items like couches, tables, beds, and furniture as well. Meanwhile, there is no more space! Luckily, today we have a number of choices you can try including the multi-function furniture that can be used for another purpose. This is a great idea to save your space and the cleaning time. Additional trick you should try is trying hanging small things. Installing hanging bookshelves is a great idea. You can store your small things here while keeping your book away from the mold. Or, the folding furniture is a wise choice, for example placing the folding couches for trailers in the living room.
Decorating A Small Apartment Stunning Fresh In terms of decoration, it is crucial to make an illusion, so you can make the room look larger. Try to place a big mirror in the room, or you can try two mirrors if you know where to place it. It is better to position the mirror opposite the windows to create a bigger feel. Besides, be careful with color shades. Some people love trying to make a pop style by blending more colors into one place. However, it is not good for your Apartment There is no 50%:50% proportion when you talk about decoration. There should be one or two things that dominate the room. The remaining elements will accentuate the look. You can paint the whole room with a different shade of greys and combine it with red furniture to get a larger view.Some of them are aboutdecorating a small apartment ideas,decorating a small apartment living room,decorating a studio apartment in nyc,decorating ideas for small apartment decks,decorating small apartment tips,decorating small open apartment, and anything else.

Intercompany loans and other intercompany investments are currently the single largest investment allocation for corporate captive insurance companies, according to an annual survey of captives conducted by insurance brokerage Marsh. Other trends occurring in the captive industry include a surge in small captives and growing interest in using captives for employee benefits in the wake of healthcare reform.
The survey shows that the 1,148 captives Marsh has under management hold an aggregate 34 percent of their investment portfolios in intercompany loans or other intercompany investments. The next largest allocation is to fixed-income securities, which make up 32 percent of the investments in captives' portfolios.
Marsh says the financial crisis, which lowered the return on fixed-income investments and put a premium on funding, encouraged captives' use of intercompany loans.
In the years before the financial crisis, "you didn't see a lot of intercompany loans because they didn't need to," said Michael Serricchio, senior vice president in Marsh's captive advisory group. "They were earning 5 percent in the captive. When the credit crisis came on is when you had companies needing to borrow, and borrowing at 5 percent to 8 percent, while the captive was only earning 0.5 [percent]. That's the whole reason for the loan back."
The Marsh report predicts a "steady increase" in captives' use of intercompany loans and cites regulators' increased comfort with them, which it links to the practice of securing the loans with collateral such as accounts receivable or mortgages.
According to the survey, 18 percent of intercompany loans are backed with collateral.
Serricchio said he expects more use of collateralization. "It's a more clean and a more arm's-length way of transacting a loan or an intercompany investment," he said. "An insurance company wouldn't lend funds without some collateral, so why would a captive? That is the thought process."
Serricchio said, though, that as the Federal Reserve begins to tighten monetary policy and the yields on fixed-income securities rise to more attractive levels, fixed-income investments could become more attractive for captives.
Michael Mead, president of M.R. Mead & Co. and editor of Captive Insurance Company Reports, questioned the notion that intercompany loans are increasing. "It's one of those things that's always been there," he said. "I haven't seen any real uptick."
Captives are generally cautious in their investment strategies, Mead said. "If anything, I'm seeing a more conservative approach today," he said. "There was a time 10 years ago when there were a lot of off-the-wall investments on their part—private homes, yachts, art works—and the IRS really cracked down hard on that."
According to the Marsh survey, smaller allocations in captive portfolios include 21 percent held in cash and cash equivalents, 9 percent in alternative investments including hedge funds, and 4 percent in equities.
The substantial allocation to cash reflects captives' need to pay claims, Mead said. "The key with a captive investment portfolio is matching up the projected claims payments to the expiration of the investment," he said. "You've got to have the cash on hand. So the regulators pretty much push hard for short-term liquid investments, and that has not changed."
If a captive qualifies as an insurance company, the parent company's premium payments are tax deductible. But Marsh found that just 37 percent of the captives were treated as insurers.
Serricchio, pictured at left, said that while he was surprised by that number, "it proves that many captives are being set up for business and risk management reasons, not for tax."
The Marsh report notes that many companies forming new captives are implementing "small captives," captives that write less than $1.2 million in premiums and, provided they qualify as an insurer, can choose to be taxed only on investment income.
Small captives "are sweeping the marketplace," Mead said, adding that the formation of small captives has been picking up steam for the last three or four years.
Adding Benefits
A more recent trend involves employee benefits in captives, he said.
A lot of big companies are self-insured for health coverage, as are many midsize and small companies. Mead said companies that are self-insured and have a stop-loss policy, which guards against very large claims, are considering using a captive for their stop-loss policy.
"There are taxes under the Affordable Care Act that don't apply to self-insurance, so people can save themselves some money and a lot of headaches by being self-insured," Mead said. "Then they put the stop loss into a captive, which is also not regulated under the Affordable Care Act."
According to the Marsh survey, 18 percent of captives are insuring third-party risk. Serricchio said that such third-party business occurs at about the same levels in Bermuda, the EU, and the U.S.
"You're going to have things like pooling in Bermuda and the U.S.; you're also going to have a lot of extended warranties and benefits in the U.S. But you're going to have a good share of third-party risk in Europe as well," he said. Serricchio noted that 30 U.S. companies are currently covering ERISA employee benefits in their captive.

Quick Introduction to Forex Trading Market
What is Forex?
"Forex" stands for foreign exchange; it's also known as FX. In a forex trade, you buy one currency while simultaneously selling another - that is, you're exchanging the sold currency for the one you're buying. The foreign exchange market is an over-the-counter market.
Currencies trade in pairs, like the Euro-US Dollar (EUR/USD) or US Dollar / Japanese Yen (USD/JPY). Unlike stocks or futures, there's no centralized exchange for forex. All transactions happen via phone or electronic network.
What is Forex trading market?
It is the largest financial market in the world with more than 4 trillion dollars traded each day across the world. Since it is the biggest market with high amount of transactions, it provides high liquidity to the traders in it. They can easily enter and exit a trade. Though there are many currencies in the world there are eight major currencies USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, CHF, CAD, AUD and NZD. The majority of the trading volume in Forex market takes place due to transactions of pairs belonging to these major currencies.
In equities and stocks, there are thousands of possible choices to choose from but in foreign currency trading there are only a few currency pairs to choose which makes Forex trading less complicated than other ways of online trading.
Who trades currencies?
Daily turnover in the world's currencies comes from two sources:
Foreign trade (5%). Companies buy and sell products in foreign countries, plus convert profits from foreign sales into domestic currency. Speculation for profit (95%).
Most traders focus on the biggest, most liquid currency pairs. "The Majors" include US Dollar, Japanese Yen, Euro, British Pound, Swiss Franc, Canadian Dollar and Australian Dollar. In fact, more than 85% of daily forex trading happens in the major currency pairs.
Remember, FOREX TRADING
is not lottery, it is Business!!!
How Does Forex Trading Work?
Forex trading is typically done through a broker or market maker. As a forex trader you can choose a currency pair that you expect to change in value and place a trade accordingly.
Why Forex Trading?
With average daily turnover of US$4 trillion, forex is the most traded financial market in the world.
A true 24-hour market from Sunday 5 PM ET to Friday 5 PM ET, forex trading begins in Sydney, and moves around the globe as the business day begins, first to Tokyo, London, and New York.
Unlike other financial markets, investors can respond immediately to currency fluctuations, whenever they occur - day or night.
What are the benefits associated with Forex trading online?
Forex market is the biggest financial market in the world and therefore it provides high liquidity to the traders trading in Forex field. There are many benefits associated with this form of financial trading. Here are those:
It is easy to enter the foreign currency trading field due to low amount of initial capital required. It can range to few hundred dollars
Forex trading allows you to trade in high trade amount with less deposit amount known as margin.
There are some seven to eight major currencies and therefore less number of currency pairs to deal with. This lower number of options allows less confusion as compared to stocks and equities which have thousand options to trade.
Remember, FOREX TRADING
is not lottery, it is Business!!!
Why Trade in Currencies?
There are 10 major reasons why the currency market is a great place to trade:
1. You can trade to any style - strategies can be built on five-minute charts, hourly charts ,daily charts or even weekly charts.
2. There is a massive amount of information - charts, real-time news, top level research - all available for free.
3. All key information is public and disseminated instantly.
4. You can collect interest on trades on a daily or even hourly basis.
5. Lot sizes can be customized, meaning that you can trade with as little as $500 dollars at nearly the same execution costs as accounts that trade $500 million.
6. Customizable leverage allows you to be as conservative or as aggressive as you like (cash on cash or 100:1 margin).
7. No commission means that every win or loss is cleanly accounted for in the P&L.
8. You can trade 24 hours a day with ample liquidity ($20 million up)
9. There is no discrimination between going short or long (no uptick rule).
10. You can't lose more capital than you put in (automatic margin call)
What are you really selling or buying in the currency market?
The short answer is "nothing". The retail FX market is purely a speculative market. No physical exchange of currencies ever takes place. All trades exist simply as computer entries and are netted out depending on market price. For dollar-denominated accounts, all profits or losses are calculated in dollars and recorded as such on the trader's account.
The primary reason the FX market exists is to facilitate the exchange of one currency into another for multinational corporations that need to trade currencies continually (for example, for payroll, payment for costs of goods and services from foreign vendors, and merger and acquisition activity). However, these day-to-day corporate needs comprise only about 20% of the market volume. Fully 80% of trades in the currency market are speculative in nature, put on by large financial institutions, multibillion dollar hedge funds and even individuals who want to express their opinions on the economic and geopolitical events of the day.
Because currencies always trade in pairs, when a trader makes a trade he or she is always long one currency and short the other. For example, if a trader sells one standard lot (equivalent to 100,000 units) of EUR/USD, she would, in essence, have exchanged euros for dollars and would now be "short" euros and "long" dollars. To better understand this dynamic, let's use a concrete example. If you went into an electronics store and purchased a computer for $1,000, what would you be doing? You would be exchanging your dollars for a computer. You would basically be "short" $1,000 and "long" one computer. The store would be "long" $1,000 but now "short" one computer in its inventory. The exact same principle applies to the FX market, except that no physical exchange takes place. While all transactions are simply computer entries, the consequences are no less real.
What is a currency carry trade?
Carry is the most popular trade in the currency market, practiced by both the largest hedge funds and the smallest retail speculators. The carry trade rests on the fact that every currency in the world has an interest rate attached to it. These short-term interest rates are set by the central banks of these countries: the Federal Reserve in the U.S., the Bank of Japan in Japan and the Bank of England in the U.K.
The idea behind the carry is quite straightforward. The trader goes long the currency with a high interest rate and finances that purchase with a currency with a low interest rate. For example, in 2005, one of the best pairings was the NZD/JPY cross. The New Zealand economy, spurred by huge commodity demand from China and a hot housing market, saw its rates rise to 7.25% and stay there, while Japanese rates remained at 0%. A trader going long the NZD/JPY could have harvested 725 basis points in yield alone. On a 10:1 leverage basis, the carry trade in NZD/JPY could have produced a 72.5% annual return from interest rate differentials, without any contribution from capital appreciation. Now you can understand why the carry trade is so popular!
But before you rush out and buy the next high-yield pair, be aware that when the carry trade is unwound, the declines can be rapid and severe. This process is known as carry trade liquidation and occurs when the majority of speculators decide that the carry trade may not have future potential. With every trader seeking to exit his or her position at once, bids disappear and the profits from interest rate differentials are not nearly enough to offset the capital losses. Anticipation is the key to success: the best time to position in the carry is at the beginning of the rate-tightening cycle, allowing the trader to ride the move as interest rate differentials increase.
Remember, FOREX TRADING
is not lottery, it is Business!!!
How do you read a quote?
Because you are always comparing one currency to another, forex is quoted in pairs. This may seem confusing at first, but it is actually pretty straightforward. For example, the EUR/USD at 1.4022 shows how much one euro (EUR) is worth in us dollars (USD).
What is a lot?
A lot is the smallest trade size available. FXCM accounts have a standard lot size of 1,000 units of currency. Account holders can however place trades of different sizes, so long as they are in increments of 1,000 units like, 2,000, 3,000, 15,000, 112,000 etc.
What is a pip?
A pip is the unit you count profit or loss in. Most currency pairs, except Japanese yen pairs, are quoted to four decimal places. This fourth spot after the decimal point (at one 100th of a cent) is typically what one watches to count "pips". Every point that place in the quote moves is 1 pip of movement. For example, if the EUR/USD rises from 1.4022 to 1.4027, the EUR/USD has risen 5 pips.
What is leverage/margin?
As mentioned before, all trades are executed using borrowed money. This allows you to take advantage of leverage. Leverage of 400:1 allows you to trade with $1,000 in the market by setting aside only $2.50 as a security deposit. This means that you can take advantage of even the smallest movements in currencies by controlling more money in the market than you have in your account. On the other hand, leverage can significantly increase your losses. Trading foreign exchange with any level of leverage may not be suitable for all investors.
Where is the commission in forex trading?
Investors who trade stocks, futures or options typically use a broker, who acts as an agent in the transaction. The broker takes the order to an exchange and attempts to execute it as per the customer's instructions. For providing this service, the broker is paid a commission when the customer buys and sells the tradable instrument.
The FX market does not have commissions. Unlike exchange-based markets, FX is a principals-only market. FX firms are dealers, not brokers. This is a critical distinction that all investors must understand. Unlike brokers, dealers assume market risk by serving as a counterparty to the investor's trade. They do not charge commission; instead, they make their money through the bid-ask spread.
In FX, the investor cannot attempt to buy on the bid or sell at the offer like in exchange-based markets. On the other hand, once the price clears the cost of the spread, there are no additional fees or commissions. Every single penny gain is pure profit to the investor. Nevertheless, the fact that traders must always overcome the bid/ask spread makes scalping much more difficult in FX.
Do and Don't in Forex Trading
Forex trading is generally referred to as an exchange of currencies or what is commonly known as Foreign Exchange. It is not a game of bet like that of balls gaming or pony racing. This is a rewarding business which is open online 24/5 and is an outstanding method for making quick cash. In no time traders can reap the fruits of good trade by timing their trade wisely. Just as in other businesses, a new Forex trader too has to follow certain do's and Don'ts to become successful in his business.
1. A new forex trader who is all set to begin trading in the market should be ready with a trading plan. The pillars of successful forex lies with sound knowledge and understanding of the entire Foreign Exchange Trade Lifecycle.
2. In order to give a smooth start to their trade business, one should keep in mind the present monetary market scenario and study the dynamics and conduct basic research related to forex trade.
3. A new trader should always begin his trade at a time when the market shows a progressively growing or down
4. Prior to beginning a currency trade, he should always keep in mind the gain and loss ratio.
5. Having a sound knowledge on the Fibonacci Analysis will help a trader to choose the best time of his entry or exit for starting a trade as it enables them to foresee the market fluctuations.
6. A detailed technical and fundamental study of the current trading patterns by using charts, continuation patterns or trend reversal will be beneficial for a new forex trader.
1. A trader should be patient and should avoid impulsive decisions.
2. They should not make hasty decisions in order to earn profits, but instead should gradually learn the trick of trading. A forex trader who is not sure about the market trends should not risk their present capital

4. It will be unwise for a new trader to trade with all his deposit,particularly when he does not have proper understanding of Forex trade. Even a small movement of the market will make him loose all the money on his deposit. You have to trade with the adequate amounts of money to minimize the risks.
5. Being greedy in this form of trade is a big no.Emotions and feelings should be kept apart. Doing trade business primarily based on market feelings is not considered a wise practice.

An effectual forex strategy is essential to boost up a trader's business. No business can flourish without the aid of proper trading strategies. Selecting an inappropriate trading policy can be a catastrophic mistake. So choosing the right trading strategy and anticipating the best is of paramount importance for a new forex trader.

Off-duty paramedic rescues man who sawed arms

Off-duty paramedic springs to action when man saws own arms to bone in California Home DepotBy Robert Jablon, Associated Press | Associated Press
Associated Press - Art Hurtado, Pasadena Fire captain and paramedic takes questions during a news conference in Pasadena, Calif., Thursday, April 11, 2013. At right, Calvin Wells Pasadena Fire Chief.
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Fire Capt. Art Hurtado was making an off-duty visit to a home improvement store when he encountered a horrific sight — a man had deliberately cut his own arms to the bone with handsaws.
As others screamed, the veteran paramedic used materials from store shelves to stanch the bleeding.
"I kind of MacGyver-ed it," Hurtado said Thursday, referring to the old TV drama about a secret agent who used whatever materials he could find to solve problems.
The incident occurred Wednesday inside a Home Depot Inc. store in West Covina, a suburb east of Los Angeles. The man was all by himself when he injured himself, West Covina police Cpl. Rudy Lopez said.
The victim of the self-mutilation remained hospitalized as investigators tried to determine why he hurt himself. As of now, the incident is being investigated as an attempted suicide.
The man, whose name wasn't released, underwent surgery and was in intensive care. Doctors were able to reattach his arms but will have to wait to see how effectively they were able to reconnect blood vessels and muscle as the man recovers, Lopez said.
"We don't know anything about his history, motive, concerns at this point," Lopez said. Police declined to release the man's identity.
Police said the man had grabbed several small saws, including one meant to cut drywall.
Hurtado, 51, who works for the Pasadena Fire Department, had stopped by the store with his wife to pick up material to replace the trim on his daughter's house.
He noticed police cars as he arrived. When officers pulled on medical gloves, Hurtado followed them into the store.
"It's just mayhem in there," he recalled. 'Somebody's screaming in there as they're approaching the door that there's blood everywhere."
Hurtado saw blood in several aisles and people running around hysterically.
He walked down an aisle and saw police officers next to a man lying face down in a pool of blood.
"It looks like a crime scene to me, a dead body," he said. "There's splatter everywhere, I'd say another 50, 75 feet of blood."
Hurtado told the store manager that he was a paramedic, and he was allowed to move in. He and the officers flipped the man over. He was barely breathing and had no neck pulse.
Hurtado knew he had to do something.
"I'm not on duty, I don't have all the equipment that I normally have," he said.
The 21-year veteran called for quarter-inch rope and said he would have used his shoelaces if none was available. Somebody grabbed a package of rope from a store shelf. Hurtado had a police officer cut 24-inch sections and he used it and shop towels to make a tourniquet for one arm.
The man started to come around, moaning, and arriving West Covina paramedics took over.
Hurtado, who was working without protective gloves, cleaned up with hand sanitizer.
He said the man had cut through nerves, tendons and arteries to the bone above both elbows. Without fast medical help, he could have died, Hurtado said.
"It's just things you do instinctively. I'm here to serve," he said. "Any one of my brothers and sisters in the department would have done the same thing."

Of course there are prostitutes at the casino
If you doubt how much prostitution business casino customers generate, consider a police report from a raid on an alleged brothel in Norwich back in the spring of 2011.
Nine Norwich police officers and one agent from Homeland Security participated in the raid on the three-bedroom house on Asylum Street.
While police were there, cellphones scattered around the house kept ringing, and the officers answered the calls.
"Cellular phones were constantly ringing," says a report on the May raid. "Several people were calling for 'Momma' and looking to have girls come to their room at the casino.
"There were also several phone calls from men asking for the price and arranging to come to the residence to meet with a girl. (The) phones were also receiving text messages from customers looking for females and advising what room they were in at the casino."
Recession? What recession?
According to the arrest report, men were being charged $200 for a one-hour session with a woman. The alleged madam, or "Momma," kept $80 to $100 of that, according to the arrest report.
Police ended up seizing the five cellphones during the raid. They also seized some 38 condoms. The condoms were everywhere - next to beds, on tables, in a closet, the report said.
Two people were arrested in the May raid on the house on Asylum Street. One was a 21-year-old woman charged with prostitution, and the other was 46-year-old Ailing Zhu of Norwich, who was charged with second-degree promoting prostitution.
I found the arrest report on the 2011 raid last week after I inquired about some recent prostitution arrests by Norwich police.
Zhu, who was eventually fined $500 and given a suspended sentence and two years of probation on a misdemeanor charge of permitting prostitution related to last year's raid, was charged again in late November with promoting prostitution.
Zhu was charged with four other women in what police said was an undercover investigation targeting prostitution promoted on the websites cityvibe.com and backpage.com.
Police said the November arrests were related to last year's raid on the house on Asylum Street.
Zhu is next scheduled to appear in court Thursday. She has posted a $25,000 bond, according to police.
It's not clear from the report on the raid last year why a Homeland Security agent participated, although the agency sometimes gets involved in local prostitution cases when there are allegations of human trafficking in which women may be coerced into commercial sexual situations.
Police said last week an investigation into the Norwich prostitution is continuing.
Police said in the arrest report on the May 2011 raid that a phone answered at the Asylum Street house was the same number as one used on a website promoting the "Best Asian Escort in New England Area," with pictures of Asian women.
The younger woman arrested on prostitution charges during the 2011 raid told police that she came to work for Zhu after Zhu got the house on Asylum and that she had seen different women come and go who also worked for her.
The woman said she initially met Zhu in 2009, when she would have sex with men for money at Mohegan Sun and give Zhu a cut of what she made.
The woman added that Zhu "will arrange for girls to have sex for money with customers who are staying at the casino."
Since police have been arresting women on prostitution charges, it will be interesting if the men might get targeted next.
After all, someone is on the other end of the lines of all those ringing cellphones.
This is the opinion of David Collins.

Rocky And Leon Houston Arrested For Federal Firearms Violations
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. – On Friday, January 11, 2013, brothers Rocky Houston, 52, and Leon Houston, 54, both of Ten Mile, Tenn., were arrested on federal firearms charges. Agents and officers from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), Roane County Sheriff's Office, and other local law enforcement agencies executed arrest and search warrants at the Houston family property located in Roane County, Tenn., announced William C. (Bill) Killian, U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Tennessee, Carl Vasilko, Acting Special Agent in Charge, ATF, and Jack Stockton, Sheriff of Roane County.
Rocky Houston has been charged with being a convicted felon in possession of firearms, and Leon Houston has been charged with possession of firearms while being an unlawful user of controlled substances. Upon conviction, each faces up to 10 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000. Both will appear before a U.S. Magistrate Judge on Monday, January 14, 2013, for an Initial Appearance on the charges which have been lodged against them. Rocky Houston will appear at 10:30 a.m., and Leon Houston will appear at 3:00 p.m., before the Honorable Bruce Guyton, U.S. Magistrate Judge.
U.S. Attorney Bill Killian expressed his appreciation to the agents of ATF and the officers from the Roane, Knox and Loudon County Sheriffs' Offices for their participation in the successful execution of these warrants. "Our commitment of cooperation and support from our federal law enforcement agencies to our state and local colleagues is strong. It will remain so," said U.S. Attorney Killian.
Members of the public are reminded that these are only charges and that every person is presumed innocent until their guilt has been proven beyond a reasonable doubt.

DxOMark measurements for lenses and camera sensors
What is lateral chromatic aberration (LCA)?
Lens refraction depends on the wavelength. This means that magnification not only depends on the image field position but also on the light wavelength. A perfectly sharp edge going from white to black yields a smooth transition showing the decomposition of the light spectrum.
This has two major effects on the sensor. Each channel (usually R, G, B) is blurry because it integrates a certain range of wavelengths that are imaged at different positions on the sensor. Moreover, the different channels are shifted with respect to one another. This usually yields colored fringes along edges with a high level of contrast. DxOMark measures the maximal shift between the three color channels. This measure is a distance.
LCA is expressed in µm on 24x36 mm. 10 µm is a typical level of acceptability.
What does DxOMark measure?
Lateral chromatic aberration is easily computed by considering the image of a black spot on a white background.
Mr is the center of the spot in the red channel, Mg in the green channel, Mb in the blue channel. LCA corresponds to the distances between the positions of Mb and Mg, and of Mr and Mg.
Using a target covered with black dots on a white background, we evaluate LCA all over the field.
We compute statistical data such as maximum and mean values for the image, then we use a color scale to map those values as functions of focal length and aperture value.
We plot curves that represent the variation as a function of the field position of the shifts between the red and green channels on the one hand, and between the blue and green channels on the other hand.
We measure LCA for each focal length and aperture.
We map the variation of the maximum of LCA in the image at each field position for different values of focal lengths and apertures.
Further readings for the DxOMark measurements for lenses and camera sensors
To provide photographers with a broader perspective about mobiles, lenses and cameras, here are links to articles, reviews, and analyses of photographic equipment produced by DxOMark, renown websites, magazines or blogs.
On DxOMark, we evaluate and rank many types of digital cameras with image sensors that vary widely in pixel count, pixel size, and digital signal processing. To ensure that sensor performance comparisons between cameras are fair, it is very important both to test under identical shooting conditions and to take viewing conditions into account.

I have a couple of weeks off work and thought I would make the most of my time on family history stuff.
So I spent all day yesterday updating and cross checking some research on a tree I am doing for a relative. I hardly moved from the computer screen from first thing in the morning until early evening.
Today I decided that I would get out in to the fresh air.
I dropped Jayne at the bus stop at about 6.45am and carried on to Cowling, near Keighley – a journey of about 26 miles. I had a flask of coffee, sandwiches and my camera. The plan was to hunt down some more gravestones.
I trawled through the National Burial Index recently and identified a number of relatives buried at Holy Trinity Church in Cowling and a couple at a small cemetery in Steeton with Eastburn not far from Cowling.
I had quite a long list including Dawson, Gawthrop and Snowden ancestors. I have to say that I wasn't all that optimistic of finding very many headstones. And indeed that turned out to be right – I came home with only six names crossed off my list.
I am guessing that the graves I can't find must all be without headstones. There were a great many of these. So I am thinking that perhaps the church will have a record of who is buried in which unmarked grave. There wasn't anyone around today so I will have to follow this up later.
I was a bit more optimistic when I visited the small cemetery at Steeton with Eastburn. I was looking for the graves of two brothers – Arthur and Clement Dawson. Unfortunately I couldn't find them either. And by now it had started to rain so I was feeling rather miserable.
I did manage to take a good photograph of Holy Trinity Church though. I have been on the look out for a postcard but haven't seen one yet.
This is a Victorian church designed by Robert Dennis Chantrell and built in 1845. It is now a Grade II listed building.
The village of Cowling is Saxon in origin and is recorded in the Domesday Book as 'Collinge'. The name means Coll's people or tribe. At the time of the Norman Conquest the main landowner was Gamel who had very large land holdings in Yorkshire. His name survives in Gamsgill on the northern edge of the village.
Originally the village comprised three separate hamlets namely Ickornshaw, Middleton, Gill and Cowling Hill. It was only following the construction of the main Keighley to Colne Road and the building of large mills alongside the road that what is now regarded as the main village was constructed providing terraced cottage homes for the mill workers.
The older parts of the village faded in importance and as a result the parish church and village school are located on what appears to be the outskirts of the village between Ickornshaw and Middleton, the centre of the village having moved since their construction.

Your doctor will ask you questions about your family and medical history. A physical exam will be done. Tests can help determine the location and type of stone.
Tests Used to Diagnose a Kidney Stone
Urine tests look for the presence of an infection or an increased amount of chemicals that cause stones.
Most kidney stones can be seen on an x-ray. This test is helpful for knowing what type of stone you may have. Other studies are often needed to determine the specific spot in the kidney where the stone is located.
An ultrasound is a diagnostic technique that combines sound waves and computer imaging to view internal organs. This procedure provides a more detailed picture than you would get from a single x-ray.
A CT scan can spot small kidney stones that regular x-rays might miss.
For this test, a dye is injected into a vein. The dye highlights otherwise hard-to-see areas of your urinary tract as it passes out of your system. This makes it easier for your doctor to see the kidney stone on an x-ray. This procedure is less commonly used today because of the excellent images obtained with CT scans.
Tests Used to Determine the Type of Kidney Stone
Blood tests help identify factors, such as high levels of calcium, uric acid, or the presence of infection, that can cause a kidney stone to develop.
Urine will be tested for acidity and levels of substances, such as calcium, uric acid, citrate, and oxalate, which can form kidney stones. This test provides a more accurate analysis than your doctor would get from a single urine sample.
Stone Analysis
Once a stone is recovered, it can be analyzed in a laboratory to determine its chemical make-up. This may help your doctor make decisions about how you can prevent further stone formation.

Thoughtful Design In Today's Kitchens
Kitchen design trends continue to support the evolution of this room from a once simply functional work space to what is now a thoughtfully designed living space. Concepts are more open, casual seating is more prevalent, and design elements bear more resemblance to adjacent living spaces. With the help of interior designers, Linda Mazur, Laura Hay and Dvira Ovadia, we're bringing you top kitchen design trends for 2017.
A Comfortable Concept
Open concept remains the ultimate choice in kitchen design, with comfort and livability being a main focus. Large islands, now a staple, accommodate every day activities and casual dining for the family, as well as provide a secondary work space when entertaining a larger crowd. Functionality, of course, is still a necessity, and is satisfied with cabinetry that's taller and increasingly more customized.
"There is a trend away informal dining spaces. Where you might have had a small island and a kitchen dining table, you'll now see a large island with the seating maximized and the absence of a dining table." - Laura Hay
Mixed Metals & Millwork
In cabinetry, we will continue to see the seamless integration of appliances and simplistic hardware allowing beautiful millwork finishes to take the spotlight. Mid-tone, wire-brushed wood finishes will be popular, as will matte black, as either a stand-alone finish or paired with contrasting white. Additionally, designers will be utilizing multiple cabinet finishes, as well as mixing metals in plumbing and hardware.
"Custom cabinetry in various different finishes integrates beautifully with both the appliances and many other design elements in the adjacent spaces. We have used the same cabinet door front, simple and reminiscent of the mid-century era, and 3 different custom finishes; a warm wood grain, warm white and a beautiful wire-brushed metallic finish, with simple hardware to allow our cabinetry to be the focal point." - Linda Mazur
Features and Flooring
Farmhouse sinks will continue to be popular among consumers, while back splashes will be moving away from subway tile toward eye-catching herringbone, mosaic and natural stone designs. In countertops, expect to see less granite and more quartz, marble and butcher bock materials. For flooring, hardwood will continue to be used more and more - a result of the kitchen becoming an extension of the main living spaces within homes. Engineered hardwood, luxury vinyl and laminate options are offering homeowners beautiful wood visuals in a product that's durable, water-resistant and comfortable underfoot. Hardwood and wood visuals will continue to remain popular into 2017, with wide-plank, low-luster styles with gray undertones taking the lead. In addition to hardwood, tile and luxury vinyl tile in matte and texturally rich finishes will begin emerging along with terra cotta and polished concrete looks.

According to Mike Sando we're getting Chris Myers and Tim Ryan (AKA 80's Beard) for Sunday's game:
"Chris Myers, Tim Ryan and Jamie Maggio get the call for Cardinals-Seahawks in Week 14. Fox's No. 5 crew."
I'm not even sure if this warrants creating a new thread, but does anyone else find it a little odd that we've gotten this crew so many times? I'm not really complaining, I actually find myself agreeing with Ryan a lot of the time. I just can't remember any time in recent history we've gotten the same announcers this many times in a season.
Or maybe this is just a non-story and I'm looking for ways to pass the time until Sunday.

Stonington sues bar owner over signs
Stonington - The town has sued the owner of the Handlebar Cafe on Route 1 because she has refused to remove an illegal mural and a large set of rooftop handlebars that were erected without permits as part of a reality show makeover.
The town, which filed the action last Thursday, is asking a judge to issue an injunction prohibiting Girlie LLC, whose principal is Elizabeth Mitchell, from keeping the illegal signs. In addition, the town is asking that Mitchell pay its attorney's fees, court costs and any damages.
Although she considers the handlebars and mural to be more like ornaments and pieces of art than signs, Mitchell said Monday that she will probably have to comply with the town's cease-and-desist order because it's "senseless" to spend money on legal fees.
"I feel there's other things the town could be spending money on instead of a harmless set of handlebars on the roof," she said. "It's not offensive to anyone. If I put a potted plant out front will I need a permit for that, too?"
Mitchell is also upset with town officials, who she says congratulated her during the filming of the "Bar Rescue" show but then cited her after the film crews left.
At a May Planning and Zoning Commission meeting, member John Prue accused the town of employing a double standard by allowing the Handlebar Cafe to put up a new sign as part of the production of the show without getting a permit. He pointed out at the time that other businesses are required to first obtain a permit.
At that May meeting, First Selectman Ed Haberek said the Handlebar was a unique situation because the point of the Spike TV show "Bar Rescue" was to surprise the public with the makeover and there were contractual requirements between the show and Mitchell regarding the secrecy of the changes.
Haberek, who became frustrated with the commission's questioning, said the town was just trying to help the television show, which brought good publicity to the town. Haberek is the town's acting director of planning and oversees the department. He appeared in the show and plays on the bar's softball team.
As part of the makeover, "Bar Rescue" painted an elaborate mural on the side of the business with the name of the bar and erected the large handlebars on an overhang over the front entrance. Both changes require a sign and building permit from the town. If the bar name is removed from the mural, it would likely no longer be considered a sign.
A team from the Spike TV show worked for five days to renovate the bar and unveiled their work at the beginning of May. The show and its host, Jon Taffer, help drinking establishments "transform themselves into vibrant profitable businesses."
The town's lawsuit states that on May 7, Zoning Enforcement Officer Candace Palmer received a complaint that the bar had illegally put up the signs without permits. On May 20, the same day the town inspected the property, Mitchell met with Town Planner Keith Brynes to discuss applying for a permit but never submitted an application.
On July 2 the town issued a notice of violation, and when the signs were not removed as of July 23, Palmer issued a cease-and-desist order to require the bar to remove the signs. That order could have been appealed to the Zoning Board of Appeals within 15 days but Mitchell did not file an appeal.
Because the handlebars and mural stayed, Town Attorney Jeff Londregan filed the lawsuit.
The bar faces fines of at least $100 a day if it is found to have willfully violated zoning regulations.
