Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 26 diseños de 9 diseñadores freelance.
Coded Template for Community site on Las Vegas.
Desired Color Scheme:
desert tones?
Desired Style:
Fun, cheery.
Accepted File Formats:
html, PNG, JPG, GIF
We're looking for a template for a new site on Las Vegas (visit-vegas.com). Currently, most sites out there on Las Vegas are strictly geared around gambling and other forms of entertainment or travel accommodations. However, there is a real community here and we hope to speak to them. Consequently, we'd like to stay away from the normal gambling themes that seem to follow every site on Vegas (as well as not use the same tired "Welcome to Las Vegas" sign.)
The website needs to be designed with SEO and navigational link growth in mind. The pages will be .shtml so that navigational links can be handled via an SSI call. We would like to see them (the navigational links) placed on the left in a vertical column. They must be text links (though mouseovers and other effects are fine as long as they are accomplished with CSS.) Some examples of links currently planned are: History, Facts & Stats, Weather, Recreation, Lodging, Bus Info, ATM Locator, Wi-Fi Hot Spots, Government, Forums, etc. These may, or may not, be lumped under category headings (depending on what looks best.)
All pages will have the navigation on the left. Most pages will have a block of text/information and possibly a third section containing some other or google ads. With that in mind we're envisioning the classic header and 3 vertical columns look BUT we've been known to be wrong before and are VERY open to something else if it works - so, if you've got it - flaunt it.
Something bright and cheery and using complimentary colors for zing since monochromes tend to be boring. We thought desert tones for the major color but again, we're not limited to that. What we don't want: the dark, glitzy, neon, night life look.
Other than that - stress the community. We'd like to see something fun but want it to be geared for, and appeal to, adults of all ages (it should NOT look like we're selling kids toys or school supplies.)

MANILA, Philippines - The Department of National Defense (DND) has earmarked P18 billion for two brand-new frigates for the Philippine Navy and opened the bidding for the ships this week.
As stated in the bidding announcement, the contract for the frigate project includes a complete weapons system.
Bidders are required to have delivered a project of similar scale in the last 10 years and will have to turn over the new vessel to the DND within 1,460 calendar days from the opening of the letter of credit.
The DND said it will hold the pre-bidding conference on October 11, while the first stage of bidding is set on October 25 at the DND Bidding Awards Committee Conference Room, Basement, DND Building, Camp Aguinaldo, Quezon City.
The agency has acquired two second-hand Hamilton-class cutters BRP Gregorio del Pilar (PF-15) and BRP Ramon Alcaraz (PF-16) the past year. While the Del Pilar has started its service under the Navy, the Alcaraz is set to be commissioned this month.
Philippine Navy flag officer-in-charge Vice Admiral Jose Luis Alano has said that five countries have so far expressed interest in joining the bidding namely the US, Israel, Croatia, Australia and South Korea.
DND also said that purchasing brand new vessels are more cost-effective than pushing through with plans to acquire Italy's Maestrale-class frigates.
"We found out that it will be more expensive to maintain second hand vessel(s) than buying a new one," DND undersecretary Fernando Manalo said in a previous report.

Big 12 M5: 02.06.14 EditionPosted by Nate Kotisso on February 6th, 2014
- Last night was the zillionth reason why winning a road game in the Big 12 is a you-know-what. Oklahoma arrived at WVU Coliseum to face West Virginia about 90 minutes before tip-off due to winter weather and still managed to stay in the game. The Mountaineers held the lead for much of the game but a three-point play from Ryan Spangler gave the Sooners a one-point advantage with 1:38 left. That's when Eron Harris started making all the three-pointers: one that sent the game to overtime with 20.2 seconds left, and two more to put the game away for good. The Mountaineers now have wins against Baylor (losing luster), Kansas State and the Sooners in their last three games. But as we all know, the NCAA Tournament won't be played at your home arena. A win at Kansas on Saturday would really send a message.
- Kansas center Joel Embiid said after its win at Baylor that he is "strongly considering" returning to campus for his sophomore season. The obvious part about this story is how much of this is a non-story. This is as pointless as reporters asking players whether they're leaving for the NBA mere minutes after their season just ended. But I totally get why ESPN's Jeff Goodman asked Embiid about his future: He's gotta write about something, and Lord knows nobody else is asking the question to likely draft picks in early February. Goodman has already cornered the market for the answer from the potential top pick in this June's draft. Game recognize game, Jeffrey.
- Marcus Smart was considered a consensus lottery pick in the 2013 NBA Draft but elected to return to Oklahoma State for his sophomore season. In addition to a possible injury as a downside to coming back to school, Smart's game is being scouted, analyzed and criticized more than ever before. NBCSports.com's Rob Dauster brings forth several compelling points about Smart's poor decision-making at times and how a lack of awareness when it comes to his own strengths and weaknesses can hurt his team's prospects this season. Beyond that, it could also hurt how NBA teams evaluate him when they're deciding whether to make him their point guard of the future.
- CBSSports.com sat down with Texas head coach Rick Barnes this week and discussed his team's surprising season, the new athletic director and some other things. One topic of conversation was center Cameron Ridley, who would get my vote for Big 12 Most Improved Player of the Year, if such an award existed. He was a player who was a project in every sense of the word and didn't really have a set of skills when he stepped onto campus for the first time. Ridley was always an intimidating defender, but now he's a better finisher around the rim and has vastly improved his conditioning (he has already played more minutes at this point in the season than all of 2012-13). Buzz Williams who?
- Former Baylor guard Pierre Jackson was drafted in the second round of last year's NBA Draft but was subsequently cut from the New Orleans Pelicans in training camp. So now Jackson is venting all of his frustration of being cut on to the entire D-League. On Tuesday night, the Idaho Stampede guard dropped a ridiculous 58 points on 33 shots, grabbed six rebounds and dished out eight assists in a win over the Texas Legends. Jackson is also leading the D-League in points per game (30.2) so far. It's only a matter time before an NBA team is wise enough to bring him up to the big time.

Atlanta Youth Lacrosse runs three seasons:
Spring is the MAIN season for lacrosse. Practices, games and championship games take place.
Summer is the travel season for our Select Teams – the Coyote – For Coyote information – here
Fall is the OFF season for lacrosse. No practices, just games. Players work on using their off hand, try new positions. No championship games.
Winter is a PRE season warm up for the upcoming spring season. A combination of skills/drills and scrimmages.
While these seasons are subtly different, each one focuses on developing the core skills required of any successful lacrosse player.
Any player of any experience level will learn the game and improve their skills in either of these seasons.

A place of extraordinary cultural and historical wealth, this beautifully preserved medieval city is a must-visit for history buffs.
York, North Yorkshire, England
- Like stepping back into the middle ages, the overhanging timber-framed houses and traditional shopfronts of The Shambles makes it one of the UK's most historic (and picturesque) streets.
- You can't miss York Minster, one of the largest cathedrals in Northern Europe and also one of the most beautiful gothic cathedrals in the world.
- York – then called Jorvik – was once the capital of a Viking territory. You can head back in time to learn more and experience the sights, sounds and smells of the time at the immersive Jorvik Viking Centre.
- Uncover 300 years of railway history, climb aboard restored locomotives and browse some of the 1 million train-related artefacts at the National Railway Museum.
- The surrounding area is packed with unique attractions. Explore Castle Howard, one of England's most impressive stately homes, or marvel at the weird and wonderful Brimham Rocks, an amazing collection of wind-weathered rock formations.
- You can reach York from London by train in 2 hours. Or from the city of Leeds, it is just a 20-minute train ride.

Charts! I'm coming to like them. When I first started with them I'd write out what they said and knit that way, but now they are growing on me.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousMay 18, 2011 at 11:59 AM
I love charts! Many years ago I would make my own charts from written instructions. So much easier to follow!!ReplyDelete
I have also learnt to like charts more and more! I was a bit scared to begin with...ReplyDelete
Love love love love charts!! To the point that I pretty much refuse to knit from a pattern that doesn't have them (if it's a cabled/lace/etc project, obviously).ReplyDelete
I love charts! If I win this, I'd love to give it to my Mom...she does not share the love of charts yet!ReplyDelete
I strongly prefer knitting fron a chart rather than written step-by-step directions. I think the rest of my knitting group thinks I'm a little nuts for that.tedanReplyDelete
- Claudia WoodMay 18, 2011 at 12:19 PM
Charts make me a little itchy (like hives!) but I would love to get more comfortable with them. Maybe if I win this book, I could do it! :)ReplyDelete
I've just branched into doing charts. First with a pair of socks with a simple 11 stitch chart (only repeats on rows, not across the row) and now with Wendy Knits mystery shawl KAL. I'm slowly learning as I go,but that book as been on my wishlist for a while nowReplyDelete
- EuniceMay 18, 2011 at 12:26 PM
I like charts. Once in awhile I like to check something with the written pattern to be sure I am reading a chart right.ReplyDelete
Charts give me the willies! Haven't been brave enough to try one yet...I've got to get over it because I have the materials for a shawl that uses charts.ReplyDelete
- Claudia HornerMay 18, 2011 at 12:32 PM
I thought charts would be really confusing, but actually like them better now that I've had some experience using them. I am sure having done a lot of counted cross stitch in the past helped me to make the transition. Given that, I sometimes wonder if some of us would find them simpler if they were in color? I haven't experimented with different colored highlighters, but I might soon. Also along those lines, counted cross stitch charts have a darker ten by ten grid overlay which makes counting the big ranges of stitches easier. I do keep a pack of post-it notes with my charts so I know where I've stopped on a chart. Good luck publishing -- I am not the only one who loves to get yummy new books by my favorite designers! claudiahorner at yahoo dot comReplyDelete
I love charts and would love to know more about how to make them. Charts are what I go to when I am exhausted of stockinette stitch. I often need something to keep me excited in the pattern.ReplyDelete
- Jenny (renewedmind on ravelry)May 18, 2011 at 12:34 PM
I mujst admit, I've always been a written directions kinda gal, but I am really, really trying to like charts! Some of my favorite patterns are chart only, so I'm working on it! firstname.lastname@example.com
I don't think I have ever used a chart that didn't have line by line written instructions as well... I could definitely use this book to help me get a better grip on them!!ReplyDelete
I find it easier to work with charts. Especially for the KAL, when I tried using the written instructions, it seemed as though you read the next stitch and then translate it to your fingers. With the charts I find it more automatic. In other words, charts make the instructions more direct, at least for me. Of course, using the tips about markers to help keep your eyes on the correct row and colors for similar cables that I learned in your class really help. So the prospect of more tips from this book is really enticing!ReplyDelete
I always use charts if given a choice. I find them much easier to use than written out patterns. Debbie in AlaskaReplyDelete
I used to be intimidated by charts. Am currently doing my first charted project, a Cookie A sock, and find myself learning to like them. I could definitely use the insight and instruction this book can provide such a newbie chart knitter!ReplyDelete
emerelaino on Rav
I like to see a chart AND written instructions to kind of cross-reference them and make sure I get it.ReplyDelete
I like charts, I like that I have a visual for otherwise potentially confusing patterns and I can see how the stitches develop more clearly.ReplyDelete
Great giveaway :D
About a year ago I would have run screaming from a charted pattern , but now they are my one true love. This book looks great! since I am starting to use charts in my designs it looks like a great reference manual. :)ReplyDelete
I love charts. I find it helpful to have an idea of how it all fits together so that I can easily spot if I've gone off track.ReplyDelete
I am getting more comfortable with charts, but am still more comfortable with written out directions.ReplyDelete
I adore charts ... but must confess, am always most pleased to discover that the directions are provided in words, too. Sometimes, esp. late at night, I need all the help I can get!ReplyDelete
- Angela (lucytoo on Ravelry)May 18, 2011 at 3:33 PM
Charts used to make me sweat and break out in hives!!! Just the thought of it!! But as I have become a more confident knitter, I have come to really LOVE charts! They are invaluable to me and I think working with charts leads to less possibility of mistakes in my knitting.ReplyDelete
- Nancy (nancydemaio on Ravelry)May 18, 2011 at 3:40 PM
Learned charts early in my knitting education. They were a little ackward at first, but now I would not trade them at all. They make lace knitting so much easier.ReplyDelete
I love LOVE LOVE charts. If a pattern isn't charted, I make my own (spreadsheet and my own font).ReplyDelete
I love charts. The first lace item I made had no charts, and it was so mysterious. Once I ventured into charted territory (ha!) I never looked back!ReplyDelete
Love charts! They are the only way I can follow a lace pattern without repeatedly losing where I am & having to painstakingly recount. Still need practice before I start a new project. I have to double check the symbols & make sure I remember that wrong side rows are charted left to right....ReplyDelete
Love, love charts. They help me visualize what I am doing. I suppose that is because I have been needlepointing for years as well as knitting so the chart thingy makes sense. Would love this book. I am crazy about knitting books, too! Don't they all belong on our bookshelves?ReplyDelete
Charts can be a challenge but oh, so wonderful when the piece comes out right!ReplyDelete
It's complicated.ReplyDelete
I don't actually like charts, I like reading and it makes sense. But man, there is nothing easier than a chart when traveling - one piece of paper, nice and compact! I also like charts for lace since it helps me figure out what it's supposed to look like so I can "read" my knitting better. But for geometric patterns, it becomes visually cluttered and I go back to the written instructions.
thank you for the opportunity to see this book.
I did not used to really get charts, but after working on your Mystery KAL, I now LOVE them. They make it easy and visual for me to follow. Once I got the whole right to left then left to right reading them part, the colored squares and knowing which way to move the beads at a glance was so helpful. (The videos helped too.)ReplyDelete
I am currently working on a lacy shawl and the chart is so easy to follow I did not even look at the written directions. Thanks for opening my eyes to the beauty of charts.
Until the last few years, most of what I made didn't come with charts; mostly only written instructions. Now that I've had a few chances to use charts, I'm beginning to like them more and more! I've heard about this book, and would love to have a copy to help me even more in my charting experience!ReplyDelete
Thank you for this opportunity!
I guess I'd normally run in intimidation, but through the blogs that I'm now following I'm gaining passion and knowledge and don't feel so alone anymore. I will definitely give one a try now. Thanks for the inspirationReplyDelete
When I first learned to knit (about 5 years ago) I avoided charts like the plague. But then I decided to try one, and man, was I ever hooked! I can't imagine knitting a pattern any other way now :-)ReplyDelete
I find charts much easier to follow than written directionsReplyDelete
Often I will make a chart to conicide with written directions. I've wanted to get my hands on JC's book for a while now.ReplyDelete
I used to be afraid of them... after some practice I like them better than written directions. I get a visual of one row after another that I don't get with sentences.ReplyDelete
Many thanks for the contest,
For me, it depends what I am knitting. I did a pattern with tree branches that I NEVER would have been able to do without the chart, but I'm still trying to decipher another chart that doesn't provide written directions.ReplyDelete

So many lovely comments. I want to get better at writing readable charts! I, too, have done a lot of knitting with and without. I much prefer lace and colorwork with charts.ReplyDelete
- HeatherflowerMay 18, 2011 at 10:26 PM
I love charts! For me, they are so much easier to follow.ReplyDelete
Absolutely LOVE charts - and dis-dis-dislike written instructions that take up pages and pages! I always lose my place with them and it takes forever to finish a row but with a chart it is so easy to read.ReplyDelete
I love charts, especially when accompanied by a close up photo of knitting. The charts with some color are the best for me, perhaps because my first experience with charts was with cross stitching. I have this book on my wish list!ReplyDelete
I love charts, just love them - they seem to help me more with 'reading' my knitting...ReplyDelete
- JanineMay 19, 2011 at 6:47 AM
I really like charts but also always at least look at the written instructions just to make sure that I understand everything. I used to cross stitch and I think that is the reason why I was never intimidated by charts. (I do tend to add notes to my charts - little post-its about cable direction, etc. JanineReplyDelete

I love charts! I prefer them over written instructions hands down. Chart reading is definitely an important knitting skill.ReplyDelete
I am knitting my first pattern using a chart. I find it a bit confusing, but am getting used to it. I would love to win this book!!!!!!!ReplyDelete
i too love a good chart, and would enjoy learning more about how to set up your own designs using a chart.ReplyDelete
Since I took your class I've been trying really hard to use the chart instead of writing it out!ReplyDelete
CHARTS? I LOVE CHARTS!!!!!ReplyDelete
I"m a newbie with charts and this is just the type of thing I need to become more comfortable with charts. I find myself writing out the directions from a chart. This would be a great gift since my birthday is soon :-)ReplyDelete
I love charts, especially the way that they allow you to us stitch patterns written in a foreign language (like Japanese!)ReplyDelete
Love charts and couldn't live without them! Understanding the relationship between your chart and your knitting is so freeing. Do whatever it takes to learn to read them - you won't be sorry.ReplyDelete
What a great idea for a book. I'm going to recommend my knitting guild buy this for our library. But of course I'd love to have my very own copy.ReplyDelete
Not exactly a cold sweat, but close. I usually end up writing out the instructions - I know, I know, can we say scaredy cat?ReplyDelete
The mystery KAL was my first chart! I MADE myself learn how to use it when I realized how much easier it would be. I would love this book so that I could pick up more tips for future chart knitting!ReplyDelete
- KnitnknutMay 19, 2011 at 11:33 AM
I usually type out the instructions because I tend to always have to look up what the symbols mean. Would like to learn to read charts though.ReplyDelete
- MamalionMay 19, 2011 at 11:36 AM
I actually prefer charts, since I'm a visual person, and like to be able to see what the item's supposed to look like. I get lost in the K2PC4B instructions and wonder where I was!ReplyDelete

I love charts, they are easy to read.ReplyDelete
I would so love this book. I've been knitting for a long, long time but charts do me in! I'm totally flummoxed when confronted by a chart and will avoid them at all costs (even if it means not making something I really like). I'd like to get over this and learn to love the chart!! Thanks for making this available.ReplyDelete
I have really like charts especially on a lace pattern where the written directions look like it woud take forever to do one repeat. Still, I think I am not so good as I would like to be.ReplyDelete
You taught me a class at Squam Art Workshops last year and had us read two lines of a chart. It was amazing how much this helped me! I am much, much more comfortable reading charts now and have made many patterns using them since. I much prefer patterns that are charted because of your help.
I have grown to like charts (not love) but wish there was more standardization. I like it when the symbol design helps you understand what you are doing like with a cable.ReplyDelete
Charts totally freak me out. I'm learning them as I go but they are a problem when I am desperate to work a pattern and it only comes via a chart. Hope to overcome my abject terror and dive into them one day without a overload of fear but not today 8)ReplyDelete
- darcytxMay 19, 2011 at 12:21 PM
How do I love charts...let me count the ways. Charts make it quicker for my brain to interpret the instruction. Plus, I can see what the thing should look like. Then, I can easily note where a stitch should occur on the row. Etc, etc, etc.ReplyDelete
I have a love/hate relationship with charts. I am somewhat of a newby to charts but am an expert at the "decoding" of the written knitting language. The thing that confuses me with reading charts is the whole right-to-left, then left-to-right of some charts. That western civilization thing really runs strong in me and when I have to turn my mind around, well, let's just say I have had my share of trouble! Glad to see someone someone out there has anticipated this chart stuff!ReplyDelete
I am begining to really prefer charts! I am knitting lace shawls, I find charts much easier then written out. I would love to learn more about using them. I get confused about reading right to left, or left to right. So glad ther is now a book to help with the confusion.ReplyDelete
Truthfully I never thought I would see the words "chart" and "simple" in the same sentence without a "not" or a "never" or a "no way no how" in between them! That should pretty much tell you how I feel about charts. Friends tell me to write it all out but I fear I would lose courage not to mention interest before finishing.ReplyDelete
Sooooo if this book really delivers I will be very very interested in it and maybe even order a copy for my library knitting group.
Full of hope am I!
I love charts, I can knit much more quickly if there is a chart to go by rather than written directions.ReplyDelete
My husband has told me charts look like they are written in Klingon or some other alien language.
I prefer knitting lace with charts, but the ones for flat knitting reading back and forth are challenging. I don't mind reading one row from r to l, and the next row from l to r; but wish the symbols on the l to r rows indicated the stitches I was actually doing, instead of the opposite of what I was doing.ReplyDelete
I seriously could use help with charts! The small repeats I can handle, but a real lace shawl? I have heard others rave about this book, too.ReplyDelete
- Jerre DawsonMay 19, 2011 at 4:06 PM
Charts - the language of knitting - I love learning new languages, how symbols represent ideas and information. I want to learn more in depth how the language works and be able to translate ideas into written form. How did the knitting cultures where lace is so important pass the information on? The whole concept is amazing.ReplyDelete
I want to love charts, but I don't trust myself reading directly from them yet. I like it when patterns have both written directions and charts so that I can double check to see if I am reading the chart correctly. I know I should go cold-turkey and just use the charts, but that would necessitate a slower knitting pace for awhile. This book might be the perfect thing to help me along!ReplyDelete
Charts scare me a little and I prefer to knit from written directions. Having said that, it would be great not to be handicapped in that way!ReplyDelete
- Judy RMay 19, 2011 at 4:51 PM
Charts are new to me, still would like to have written words to verify that my interpretation of the chart is correct. Guess some day I will have the confidence in just reading the chart.ReplyDelete
I LOVE working from charts, and will avoid using a pattern that only uses worsd. My goal--which I think this book would help--is to learn how to write charts.ReplyDelete
I love working with charts and seeing the pattern develop. I often write my own when there is none for a pattern so that I can visualize it.ReplyDelete
I love charts and will also avoid a pattern that does not have the instructions charted. With lace and cable patterns, it is the only way to be able to read your work as you go... in my humble opinion. ;)ReplyDelete
I prefer using charts to using written out instructions. Sometimes remembering which symbol goes with which stitch confuses me, and I've met one or two confusing charts, but overall, they really help me see what my knitting.ReplyDelete
I like charts but I sometimes get the rows mixed up (written instructions, too!).ReplyDelete
- KathyAnneMay 19, 2011 at 7:12 PM
I love working with charts, although recently I learned how much I have yet to learn about them, me and my knitting! The learning had to do with how one reads charts differently when working in the round vs flat. Having the clarification pointed out to me made a HUGE difference to the lace beret I was working on: suddenly the pattern made sense. Duh!ReplyDelete
And, PS, I heartily recommend the Knitting Chart Keeper that's available through KnitPicks for keeping track of what chart row one is on!
Charts about do me in. Would love the additional help this book would provide!ReplyDelete

I've never used a chart. Not once. It's the one big hurdle keeping me from knitting the pair of intricate fair aisle mittens I've been wanting to make/own/wear. It sounds like this book is exactly what I need to get over this phobia, thank you for writing a review on it! I've never heard of it before.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousMay 19, 2011 at 10:25 PM
I love charts and would likely give up knitting lace without them. I'm a very visual person and can "see" the lace with the chart. Something I cannot do with written instructions. I really want to create my own. My only complaint is inconsistency in what symbol means what stitch. It seems that every chartmaker wants her own legend.ReplyDelete
I'm still very much a novice with charts. Prefer patterns that have both kinds of directions so I can "check my work"!ReplyDelete
If a pattern does not have a chart I usually try to make my own, but I think I make it harder than it should be. Very long lace patterns with no chart I skip entirely. I would like to be more comfortable reading cable charts.ReplyDelete
- nanalisetteMay 20, 2011 at 11:32 PM
This book looks really interesting. I love using charts and am constantly looking for new information to make the knitting easier.ReplyDelete

I want to love charts. They would make things much easier, but my brain has a hard time reading right to left for WS, and I am completely thrown off when a symbol means one thing on the RS and the opposite on the WS. It makes me have to look at the key for every single block that has a symbol and slows me down. But I have made my peace with small simple charts, and would love to see if this book can help train my brain. :)ReplyDelete

I really like knitting from charts. I think a book would be helpful because it would make it easier.ReplyDelete
I love charts, particularly when they're well designed and you can follow how the stitch stacks up!ReplyDelete
I like charts now, but I still fail to understand how the beautiful clear chart can still result in the mess of mistakes that occasionally occurs...ReplyDelete
I used to fear charts, but now I've grown to love them, especially because you can easier visualize what the pattern will look like.ReplyDelete

There are so many lovely patterns but I find charts difficult to 'read'. A book to make the process easier would be wonderful.ReplyDelete
I do try to expand my knitting knowledge and lace knitting is on my list of things to conquer.
So far I am a 'written instructions' knitter but so want to be able to use charts!
Linda, x.
I'm getting better with charts. I like patterns that have charts and written out directions. That way I can read the chart; and if I have a problem with it, I can double check the written out directions.ReplyDelete

BUG: Completion/Progress Bar from CC v.5.44 Change Log
I have a weird issue with that novelty. The "Confirm" and "Profile" buttons we're ticked when I first saw it, while I can't change the status of the other steps. Thus, i can't get rid of that somewhat irritating bar at the top.
Further info: I checked with Opera and Mozilla (with downgraded Flash since i didn't change it after the browser crushes issue - perhaps thats the point?) and followed the steps on both the above-mentioned browsers to ensure that the problem wasn't purely graphical.

What is Edge Computing?
Edge computing is the practice of processing data near the edge of your network, where the data is being generated, instead of in a centralised data-processing warehouse.
Edge computing definition
Edge computing is a distributed, open IT architecture that features decentralised processing power, enabling mobile computing and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies. In edge computing, data is processed by the device itself or by a local computer or server, rather than being transmitted to a data centre.
Why edge computing?
Edge computing enables data-stream acceleration, including real-time data processing without latency. It allows smart applications and devices to respond to data almost instantaneously, as its being created, eliminating lag time. This is critical for technologies such as self-driving cars, and has equally important benefits for business.
Edge computing allows for efficient data processing in that large amounts of data can be processed near the source, reducing Internet bandwidth usage. This both eliminates costs and ensures that applications can be used effectively in remote locations. In addition, the ability to process data without ever putting it into a public cloud adds a useful layer of security for sensitive data.

Your analysis of your local problem should give you a better understanding of the factors contributing to it. Once you have analyzed your local problem and established a baseline for measuring effectiveness, you should consider possible responses to address the problem.
The following response strategies provide a foundation for addressing your particular problem. These strategies are drawn from a variety of research studies and police reports. Several of these strategies may apply to your communitys problem. It is critical that you tailor responses to local circumstances, and that you can justify each response based on reliable analysis. In most cases, an effective strategy will involve implementing several different responses. Law enforcement responses alone are seldom effective in reducing or solving the problem. Do not limit yourself to considering what police can do: give careful consideration to who else in your community shares responsibility for the problem and can help police better respond to it.17
Responses may be divided into two categories: (1) preventive responses aimed at reducing the likelihood of bomb threats and (2) immediate responses to a bomb threat should it occur. Your preventive responses will have a significant impact on how you and the school respond should an actual bomb threat occur. Just as installing sprinkler systems in public buildings prepares for a fire that has a low probability of occurring, so establishing a system for dealing with a crisis and managing the public space of the school in a secure way will minimize the impact of a bomb incident should it occur. Many of the responses outlined below are those that the recipients of the bomb threat (most likely school personnel) must implement. Thus, your prime responsibility is to establish a close working relationship with the schools to ensure that they implement the responses that are appropriate for their particular situation. So it is worth repeating: you will be unable to implement many of the responses listed here unless you can cultivate a close and trusting relationship with your local schools and school districts.
There are many resources to guide you in how to develop a law enforcement-school partnership; The most comprehensive is: Fostering School-Law Enforcement Partnerships (Atkinson 2002).
These responses are designed (a) to reduce the impact of a bomb threat should it occur (b) to prevent a bomb threat from happening in the first place and (c) to reduce the probability of a rash of bomb threats occurring.
There are many crisis plans available on the web and elsewhere. The most comprehensive is Practical Information on Crisis Planning: A Guide for Schools and Communities published by the Office of Safe and Drug-Free Schools (2003).
See the POP Guide on School Vandalism and Break-ins.
The introduction of call tracing considerably reduced the incidence of obscene phone calls (Clarke 1997). Publicizing its availability on all school phone lines may cause students to think twice before calling in a threat. [Full text ]
On December 20, 2002, Poughkeepsie, New York public schools received two bomb threats called in from local convenience stores; 1200 students and 100 staff were evacuated. Another threat came after Christmas break, which resulted in shutdown of schools in the New Paltz school district. Police worked with schools and local services to develop a better community phone security system. The next time a threat was called in, the voice of the caller was recognized from a recording made by the 911 system and an arrest followed soon after. The New Paltz school districts had experienced a rash of bomb threats in 1999, but since the December 20 incident, no further threats had been received.
Signs should clearly communicate to students the prohibition against and penalties for making bomb threats.
See the POP Guide on Bullying in Schools for application of this approach. [Full text ]
Triggering events like fights, gang signs and terms, excessive teasing, bullying, extortion of lunch money, and trespassingcan all be precursors to more serious criminal activity like weapons and bomb threats. (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives 2003).
These responses are designed to ensure that you and the school respond to a serious bomb threat in a systematic and orderly manner so that panic and miscommunications among police, community services, the school and parents do not occur. Their effectiveness depends heavily, if not totally, on the first nine responses above, which provide the groundwork for the ordered steps of crisis response outlined below. They also help reduce the harm caused by the bomb threat.
Low Level of Threat: A threat that poses a minimal risk to the victim and public safety.
Medium Level of Threat: A threat that could be carried out, although it may not appear entirely realistic.
High Level of Threat: A threat that appears to pose an imminent and serious danger to the safety of others.
Source: Adapted from OToole (n.d.) [Full text ]
The questions you must answer are: Will it be an overt or covert search? and Will it be conducted without evacuation or after evacuation of the area to be searched? Regardless of the extent of the evacuation, a search is almost always advisable (Federal Bureau of Investigation, n.d.). It should be noted, however, that evacuation may not necessarily be the appropriate response and will depend on local circumstances. In one junior-senior high school in New York in 2001, a rash of bomb threats resulted in the evacuation of the school only twice (School Board News (2001).

Exploring Alternative Methods of Birth Control
by Nondace Garrett
PEP Young Women's Leadership Council
When I think about self-care many elements that are crucial to my health come to mind working out, eating right, ensuring I have ample relaxation and alone time, etc. Another extremely important element in my life is preventing pregnancy. As a young woman in my 20s, its never something that is too far from mind.
Yoga: Meditation for the Mind, Body, and Spirit
by Lindsay Swisher
PEP Young Women's Leadership Council
Last semester, I had the opportunity to take a Yoga class twice a week. I heard lots of people talking about the benefits of yoga: flexibility, energy, peace. I shrugged it off as too much of a low-impact exercise. Whats the point of exercise if I dont leave the gym feeling sweaty and exhausted? However, after just a few weeks in the class I was hooked!

I took one loaf of Trader Joe's par-baked ciabatta bread, which I did not bake as directed, and cut it into cubes. The package said the loaf was 8 ounces, but the scale said it was more like 11 ounces! In any case, I ended up with
7 cups of cubed Italian bread
Take these bread cubes and distribute them evenly along the bottom of a well-oiled 9-inch by 13-inch baking pan.
1/2 cup dried cherries
on top, ensuring that they are evenly distributed.
In a small pot over low heat, mix together
3 cups soy milk
12 ounces chocolate chips
2/3 cup sugar
until the chocolate has completely melted and is fully incorporated into the milk. Pour half of this chocolate mixture into a blender along with
1 3/4 cups okara
1 tsp. vanilla (I used vanilla paste!)
Liquefy completely. Add the rest of the chocolate mixture into the blender and blend thoroughly (if your blender is big enough -- otherwise do this in two batches).
When chocolate-okara mixture is completely liquefied, pour the mixture evenly over the bread cubes. Pat any floating cubes down into the chocolate mixture with a spatula or spoon to ensure that all of the bread is covered.
In a bowl, combine
1 cup cherry preserves
1 tsp. lemon juice
thoroughly. Pour the cherry mixture evenly over the bread-chocolate mixture.
Cover the bread pudding with foil and allow it to sit for 30 minutes before transferring it to a 350 degree Fahrenheit oven. Bake for an hour and allow to cool for at least 20 minutes before serving. (I think it tastes better after cooling completely.)
Verdict: I think this tastes great, but it might be fun to experiment with liquids aside from soymilk. Perhaps coffee or some kind of liquor could give this dessert a deeper and richer flavor. But I'm not going to complain about a cherry-chocolate combination, and this was pretty easy to make!

DU's Steve Miller, who has long been known as George Gwozdecky's top assistant coach, has been promoted to associate head coach. This might just be window dressing for compensation purposes or to remind other schools with previous head-coaching vacancies what they passed over. Somehow, "Killer" hasn't landed a head-coaching job in his 16 years at DU, including two NCAA championships, yet he's watched two of his understudies — Rico Blasi and Seth Appert — land head positions at Miami and RPI, respectively. The new title might help with that. Regardless, the promotion is long overdue. A couple years ago we made Killer our weekly "Q & A" and I wrote that he was the obscure "architect" of DU hockey. I truly believe that. Since, some friends jokingly addressed him as "Architect." Now, it's associate head coach. I still prefer Architect, and it will always be Killer.
FROM DU: University of Denver veteran assistant hockey coach Steve Miller has been promoted to associate head coach, two-time National Coach of the Year George Gwozdecky announced today. Miller has served as Gwozdecky's assistant coach for the last 19 seasons – including all 16 at DU since 1994-95. Miller was also a member of Gwozdecky's coaching staff at Miami University from 1991-94.
"Steve Miller has been a trusted friend and confidante for 19 years," Gwozdecky said. "He is recognized as one of the finest recruiters, coaches and teachers in all of college hockey. Steve is highly respected by our former players as well as many of our rivals. He is a major reason that the Pioneer hockey program continues to contend for championships every season and is truly deserving of this opportunity and title."
Miller has been a force as a recruiter and coach at DU. He has helped the Pioneers capture two NCAA titles, three WCHA regular-season titles and four WCHA playoff championships since 1999. Miller has recruited NHL standouts Paul Stastny (Colorado Avalanche), Matt Carle (Philadelphia Flyers) and Tyler Bozak (Toronto Maple Leafs) to Denver and has been responsible for the signing of 13 consecutive nationally-ranked recruiting classes. Miller has coached and recruited 36 NHL Draft picks, 42 All-WCHA honorees, 11 All-Americans, nine World Junior Championship participants, two Frozen Four Most Outstanding Players (Adam Berkhoel and Peter Mannino) and one Hobey Baker Memorial Award winner (Carle).
Miller also led DU's recruiting efforts of future NHL players Joe Colborne, Marc Cheverie, Patrick Wiercioch, Rhett Rakhshani, Beau Bennett (Gardena, Calif.) and Jason Zucker (Las Vegas).
"It's been a pleasure to work side-by-side with one of the top assistant coaches in college hockey," DU assistant coach Derek Lalonde said of Miller. "I've learned a lot from Steve in my four years at DU and he is worthy of this promotion."
Denver has averaged over 23 wins in Miller's 16 years at Denver, including nine NCAA appearances and two NCAA titles. The Sun Prairie, Wis., native was honored in 2009 with the prestigious American Hockey Coaches Association's Terry Flanagan Award, which recognizes an assistant coaches' career body of work.

Godfrey woman charged with neglect
A Godfrey woman was charged Friday in Madison County Circuit Court with three felony charges of criminal neglect of an elderly person, Madison County Sheriff Robert J. Hertz said in a press release.
The woman is identified as Marjorie E. Phillips, 47, of the 4700 block of Storeyland Drive.
On Jan. 1 at approximately 7:01 p.m., the Madison County Sheriff's Office responded to the 4700 block of Storeyland Drive, Godfrey, in reference to a 911 caller reporting the death of her mother. Deputies met with the caller, who was identified as Marjorie E. Phillips. Phillips told deputies she returned home at approximately 5:30 p.m., after having been gone for approximately 24 hours, and found her mother, Marjorie B. Phillips, 71, deceased. The initial responding deputies found the interior of the residence to be in deplorable condition, with food, dirty dishes, debris and household goods piled throughout the home.
Investigators with the Madison County Sheriff's Office and the Madison County Coroner's Office were called to the scene. Marjorie E. Phillips and others affiliated with the incident were interviewed by investigators. A search warrant was obtained for the home. The Illinois State Police Crime Scene Investigative Unit assisted investigators in processing the scene. Evidence of neglect was discovered during the interviews and search of the home
An autopsy of the victim was performed on Thursday, Jan. 2. Evidence of neglect was discovered during the autopsy. Marjorie E. Phillips was detained by investigators after being questioned. Phillips was held in the Madison County Jail pending a formal review of facts by the Madison County State's Attorney's Office.
The felony warrant and information was signed by the Honorable Judge Kyle A. Napp, who set bond at $250,000.

Seeing the carbon through the trees
By Angel Hsu, Phd candidate and YCEI Fellow
Escaping the frigid, air-conditioned corridors of the Moon Palace and Cancunmesse convention rooms, I had the rare opportunity to visit the site of a pilot forest carbon project managed by local Mayan campesinos or farmers.
Called Reserva Ejidal, this 1,230 hectare patch of forest reserve is located about a 2-hour drive from Cancun and 15 kilometers west of the Sian Ka'an UNESCO site. The project Much Kana K'aax, which means "together we take care of the jungle" in Mayan, was initiated in 2006 and is an example of a community-managed forest carbon project.
Where angels fear to tREDD
Having had a chance to examine the REDD text of the Cancun Agreement, I find it a relatively positive step forward that manages to avoid some, but not all, of the misperceptions and biases that I encountered while attending REDD-oriented side events during my time at the COP. Below are some observations and lingering concerns.
The emphasis on national-level REDD.
Section C of the Cancun Agreement calls on developing countries to produce national strategies and action plans, national forest reference emissions levels, and national forest monitoring systems. The emphasis on national levels of deforestation and degradation is important in order to limit leakage from REDD projects—without national-level policies or controls, economic activities that cause deforestation could easily move from protected sites to non-protected sites at little to no…
Cancun's warming effect
Year 2010 was one of the warmest ones from the last 30 years; floods in Pakistan and Colombia, forest fires in Russia, hurricanes in Haiti are unequivocal proof of global climate change and the challenges it poses for humanity. Despite the importance of the COP16 for the continuity of the planet, the global interest and attention during the Cancun conference was much lower to what the world experienced a year ago at Copenhagen. After a huge expectation from last year negotiations, including the mobilization of the Presidents of leading Nations and intense press and media coverage, the outside vision of this year negotiation was characterized by less global attention, the presence of fewer leaders, and headlines and front pages mainly covered everyday with new "wikileaks" documents. It seemed the negotiations…
Notes on Decision of the COP16 on REDD+
The COP16 decisions were announced Saturday morning which left all countries except Bolivia relatively content with the results, and for many, restored trust in the UNFCCC process. I was at the conference, following mostly the REDD+ (Reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation, and the role of conservation, sustainable management of forests, and enhancement of forest carbon stocks in developing countries) developments as well as some land use, land-use change and forestry (LULUCF) issues as they pertain to my home country, Turkey. I worked with the delegation from the Turkish Forest Service in the last week of the conference to exchange information and report to them on issues discussed at the side events on REDD+ related issues.
The decision on REDD+ was likely below expectations on this topic which…
REDD+ all over the place
I arrived to Cancun last Sunday and attended as many REDD-related side events as I could. Is interesting to see how these side events can range from being very broad and without any substance to actually represent unique learning opportunities.
For the most part I attended side events organized by IETA (International Emissions Trading Association). In these side events one could find all sorts of people working in REDD+ from project developers to multilateral institutions. Topics ranged from finance to new methodologies to quantify projects' risks.
What I liked the most about these talks was their practical approach, giving insides of what works in the field and what is merely theory. Practitioners shared valuable insides on how uncertainties can be included in a REDD+ project's feasibility study; how…
Game-change or No-change? What to make of China in Cancun
This post originally appeared on ChinaFAQs.
By Angel Hsu, Phd candidate and YCEI Fellow, and Yupu Zhao, MESC '12
In the politics of climate negotiations, which are often steeped in nuance and careful posturing, it's easy to get lost in translation. On the ground in Cancun, reports have been flying about China's so-called "game-changing" concessions, which could possibly "buoy" the climate Talks, which are quickly nearing an end. As we're both on the ground in Cancun, we're going to try to clear the air and get to the bottom of what exactly the Chinese have and haven't said in the climate negotiations.
Binding commitments?
The first "game-changing" issue regards the legal nature…
REDD+ and Ecuador
Being at Cancun has thus far been an incredible opportunity. I arrived here on Saturday evening, and upon the advice of my fellow Yale delegates, I quickly got into the ocean as they said this was probably the only chance I would have to enjoy some waves. They weren't kidding. Since Monday morning, things have been incredibly hectic, and I've been trying to attend as many side-events and presentations as possible, as well taking sometime to attend the plenary to see firsthand just how the UNFCCC process works.
Since the summer, I have been working closely with a small Ecuadorian NGO named CEPLAES. With funding from the Norwegian Rainforest network, this organization has been actively participating in a campaign called the "rainforest and rights' initiative, which seeks to promote the…
Gender & Finance Update
Last week I blogged on the push to insert language on gender into the finance section of the LCA text. I'm happy to report, on this penultimate day of COP16, that a subparagraph in Annex IV of the latest draft calls for gender considerations to be taken into account when the composition of the Board of the Cancun Climate Fund is decided. The insertion of this currently-unbracketed subparagraph, if maintained, could bode well for future mention of gender as it relates to the actual allocation of funding.
(Pictured left) La Catrina, on display in Cancun Messe, toasts the Icelandic negotiator who has unrelentingly advocated for the inclusion of the gender text. Thanks to her efforts, mañana might be a good…
The age of cheap electricity is over
"The age of cheap electricity is over". These were the words from Nobuo Tanaka, Executive Director of the International Energy Association on Monday December 6th, 2010 during his review of the 2010 World Energy Outlook. This is the reality that we must face in order to meet the 450ppm of CO2 or 2 degrees Celsius increase target since electricity accounts for approximately 40% of global CO2 emissions today. The 450ppm target would require a rebalancing of our global electricity generation to include significant generation from nuclear power, renewable energy, and fossil fuels with carbon capture & sequestration (CCS). The magnitude of the price increase is uncertain given that renewable energy will continue to make improvements and become cheaper over time. However, the IEA projects that the 450 scenario will cost…
Climate Finance Not Charity, But Investment
I arrived to Cancún only this past Saturday, entering a negotiation process well underway. After a thorough introduction to the state of the talks by Weixin Ng and Randy Caruso, Randy and I have been following progression on finance in the AWG-LCA. This work is a continuation of study I did this semester. As to be expected, we have been delving into the minutiae of the funding mechanisms and legal language, so today, when I went to a high-level meeting about climate finance with Ban Ki-Moon (it was a side event), it was like a breath of fresh air.
The event was about the release of the AGF report on possible funding sources (more on that in…

Kalzium Wins Award; Carsten Niehaus Interviewed
A Kalzium double bill today, with Kalzium gaining recognition in OsnaBrück University's annual prize giving, and this week's People Behind KDE interview. Find out everything you wanted to know about chemistry, the small print on toothpaste, and why not to visit Bavaria in the People Behind KDE interview with Carsten Niehaus, author of Kalzium. Read on for details of the prize.
KDE this week gained further recognition from the wider world. In an awards
Accepting a cheque for €750, Carsten said "It is an honour to be rewarded for my project Kalzium. I created it to have a good tool for my own use, but with a great community behind me I was able to develop something for others that I am proud of. A prize like this helps to keep up the motivation to improve Kalzium to be the tool of choice for teacher and student alike!" Kalzium, which takes its name from the German for the element calcium, supports many advanced features, including plotting data from all elements to show trends in the mass or atomic size for example. Its ease of use and range of features have won users in Osnabrück as well as further afield: Egon
Kalzium is part of the KDE Edutainment project, which provides educational
Congrats! ... and a couple corrections
Good article and congradulations on the award Carsten! I use Kalzium some for my chemistry class. The type-ahead feature sounds great... I'd use that just for convenience. :)

What is missing?
the interview says that many programs @ his school still run windows. I just want to know what programs are this ? ist there still stuff missing ?
btw. for electronic classes there ist ktechlab (http://ktechlab.org/)
By chris at Sun, 2006/02/12 - 6:00am
Re: What is missing?
All the big schoolbook vendors only produce software for Windows, sometimes for Mac. So each and every single school-book software is missing (there are many such programs, perhaps about 3 per schoolbook)
The situation with 3d-viewers for proteins and other big molecules is now much butter than two years ago, but still those for windows are oftern better.
D-GISS. D-GISS is a software almost every (at least german) school has but which doesn't work in linux as it is somehow based on MS-Access. It is not used for teaching but more a database. Still, I would really like to be able to run D-GISS. It doesn't even install in wine.
There are many more, especially the situation with school-book software is a shame. And the vendors don't even answer email when you contact them about it.
Btw: About the drawing tools: Egon Willighagen pointed me to "his" java based drawing tool. It doesn't crash and is the best I know for Linux, but still ACDLabs is much better. Sorry that I have to say that :(
By Carsten Niehaus at Mon, 2006/02/13 - 6:00am
Re: What is missing?
It looks nice and may in certain situations be usefull as a teaching tool, but in many ways ktechlab are a toy. Besides electronics are one of the areas where Linux support is good, several of the major vendors have Linux versions of their tools.
In other areas the situation are not that good, increased addoption of Java has improved the situation some. And you can even find helpfull tools in the form of Java applets scattered around the net. Usually very specialized, but usefull to help explain/understand different concepts. Like this collection: http://www.falstad.com/mathphysics.html

Re: Wikipedia
We need the Webapi of MediaWiki first, so it is a KDE4-task.

Re: Wikipedia
No, you dont need KDE4 - look how Amarok did it :-)
By Hans Chen at Mon, 2006/02/13 - 6:00am
Re: Wikipedia
Amarok is only parsing the html the wikipedia spits out, removes the wikipedia-stuff and displays the content. What if the Wikipedia changes the html? Amarok would need to be patched. Also, the integration is much more than just displaying an article.
By Carsten Niehaus at Mon, 2006/02/13 - 6:00am
Re: Wikipedia
Wikipedia has special url to get the raw data for an article. I'd have to look it up, but it's something like ?raw
By John Tapsell at Tue, 2006/02/14 - 6:00am
Re: Wikipedia
?action=raw for the raw wiki text e.g.
This is however not really useful, because you get the unformatted wiki text.
By Jos at Tue, 2006/02/14 - 6:00am
Re: Wikipedia
Why is that not really useful? I thought the pre-processed data is what was wanted to begin with? (That this needs to be processed first to embed images and links etc. is obvious, but this also offers added flexibility.)
By ac at Tue, 2006/02/14 - 6:00am
Re: Wikipedia
We want far more, for example an API for:
"give me an article for the word "Enzyme". If that article is available in one of these languages return in one of these languages (in order of listing), if not return the english article [de,fr,it]"
That is not possible now. Or
"Give me articles related to the article "Enzyme""
I hope you can now see we need much more then "give me article 'x'".

What does he mean there is no Linux program for scientific drawing of compounds? That's just silly, so what has all the chemical physicists used all those years when the rest of the scientific world has been writing in TeX/LaTeX? Probably something like XyMTeX, that's what.
By Jonas at Wed, 2006/02/15 - 6:00am
Re: TeX?
Jonas, of course you can draw them. I studied chemistry myself without touching non-free software. I used xfig, inkscape, latex, xdrawchem and so on. But those tools are absolutly not usable for a regular chemistry teacher. If you want Linux in School you need software for teachers and students alike.

AVONDALE, La., April 27 (UPI) -- Jason Dufner, who has made a habit of leading tournaments this year without managing a win, moved to the top again Friday midway through the Zurich Classic.
Dufner shot a 7-under 65 at the TPC-Louisiana course for a two-day total of 132, good for a one-shot lead over Russell Knox, Ken Duke and John Rollins.
Greg Chalmers, Ernie Els and Steve Stricker were another shot back. Chalmers and Knox both posted a 64, the low rounds of the tournament.
Masters champion Bubba Watson birdied the par-3 17th to get to 2-under 142, the number he needed to survive the 36-hole cut.
Dufner has never won on the PGA Tour, but he has given himself lots of chances in the past year. He fell victim to a late comeback by Keegan Bradley at last season's PGA Championship and then lost to Bradley in a playoff. He led the Phoenix Open this year after an opening-round 66 and wound up tied for eighth, and his first two rounds of 66-66 put him in front at the Transitions Championship, but he faded on the weekend and finished in a tie for 10th.
At the Masters, he shared the 36-hole lead with Fred Couples only to end the tournament tied for 24th. He was a shot out of the lead at the halfway mark of the Arnold Palmer Invitational before finishing tied for 15th.
The third round will begin with 21 players within five shots of the lead.
Camilo Villegas, Cameron Tringale and Graham DeLaet shared eighth place at 135 while Rickie Fowler was among those at 136. Ben Curtis, the winner last week in San Antonio, was in the large group at 137.
Former British Open champ David Duval made his second straight cut at 141 after missing the cut in his first seven tournaments of the year. John Daly, given a late sponsor's exemption to play in the event, had two double bogeys and a triple bogey in a round of 80 and he missed the cut by 11 shots.
