We want to sincerely thank everyone who attended the fifth anniversary celebration of the Piedmont Health SeniorCare facility earlier this month. More than 200 people, including SeniorCare participants, caregivers, Piedmont Health staff, board members and local residents came together on Dec. 5 to share stories of how the SeniorCare program helps their families and the community.
Piedmont Health SeniorCare is nonprofit and a Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE). North Carolina is the fastest growing state in the number of PACE sites nationally. Piedmont Health SeniorCare has served more than 200 participants since it started.
PACE programs offer comprehensive services designed to allow seniors who might ordinarily move to a nursing facility to remain at home instead.
At Piedmont Health SeniorCare, our goal is to help our senior participants lead independent, healthy lives. The care is coordinated by an interdisciplinary team from 12 disciplines, who work together to address the individual medical needs of each participant, with an emphasis on wellness and prevention. Program participants attend the Day Health Center on a regular basis where they receive most of the available services (including recreational activities), but additional services are provided at home or by contracted community providers.
We are very grateful for the support of the community during the past five years. We also hope to continue being a source of encouragement and support for all of our senior participants, their caregivers and the various members of the community in the new year and beyond.
Happy holidays.
Marianne Ratcliffe is executive director of Piedmont Health SeniorCare.

Blumenthal: Restore full commuter benefit
Tens of thousands of workers whose employers give them federal tax benefits for taking mass-transit to work could see their costs increase by about $1,000 a year because of congressional inaction.
U.S. Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., was joined by New Haven Mayor Toni N. Harp, transit advocates and environmental leaders on Monday in pushing for a reinstatement of benefits that dropped sharply at the start of the year.
Blumenthal noted that the same shortfall occurred last year, but Congress was quick to reinstate the full program, which operates like a health savings plan for more than half of the state's 115,000 daily railroad commuters and about 2.7 million nationwide.
"Failure to extend this tax benefit will harm working families and small businesses, as well as clog the roads, contaminate our air, raise gasoline usage, cost consumers, and impose unfair discrimination against mass transit users," Blumenthal said in a statement.
At the start of the New Year, the amount of money commuters are allowed to set aside before taxes for public transportation fell to $130 a month, from $245.
"The expiration of the Commuter Mass Transit benefit will cost some public transit users up to $1,000 in additional costs," Blumenthal said. "By contrast, commuters who drive to work will be eligible to put away $250 month before taxes, up from $245 in 2013, for parking fees.
"Commuters from every corner of the state have expressed to me, through letters, emails and phone calls in recent months, how useful and important this benefit is to them on a daily basis," he said. "Commuters face an unconscionable double whammy -- higher fares, and an effective tax increase, unless we do the right thing and renew the full $245 benefit."
Blumenthal is a co-sponsor of the Commuter Benefits Equity Act, which would extend the commuter mass transit benefit through 2014.
Darien resident Jim Cameron, a commuter advocate who joined Blumenthal and Harp in a news conference in New Haven's Union Station, recalled that last year Congress restored the full benefit retroactively for the rail commuters.
He estimated that as many as 75,000 of the state's rail riders have employers that participate in the federal tax benefit program.
"We just had a 5 percent fare increase," Cameron said in a phone interview. "So now it costs $458 a month from New Haven to New York and $300-plus from Stamford. I am hearing anecdotally from commuters that it's not worth living in Connecticut. I am concerned that the cost of being a commuter in Connecticut is becoming increasingly expensive."

Daydreaming of a small quiet pup
What is the smallest cheapest quietest low-power pup we can build with available new parts? In theory, those goals would be mutually reinforcing. In practice, they rather conflict, and we face trade-offs.
120 x 120 mm nano-ITX (4.7x4.7-in)
170 x 170 mm mini-ITX (6.7x6.7-in)
215 x 191 mm ITX
229 x 191 mm flex-ATX
244 x 244 mm micro-ATX
305 x 244 mm ATX (12x9.6-in)
The best pup is a no-cost pup built out of salvaged parts. But what can we dream of building?
The ideal minimal pup box would be about 5x5x1-in. It would offer these connections:
PS/2 x2
RJ45 10/100bTX
Audio I/O
simple DC power input (5V or 12V unregulated)
VIA 1GHz cpu
It would have no moving parts, and be absolutely silent. It would use a simple external power supply. It would cost about $100.
This is not an absurd dream. But it does not exist.
If you just want the cheapest new computer, you just buy whatever is OVERPRICED, for about $300. It will be big, noisy, and power-wasting, using about 100W.
If you just want small at any price, you can pay about $350 for a VIA nano-ITX board and build a system.
The practical compromise is the VIA mini-ITX. You can get a new mainboard and cpu for $100-200. You can get complete little system boxes for $165-$250. Because these parts are not commodities, you pay too much for the case etc. So make your own out of something else? The power supply is a challenge. The right thing, nice and small, will be costly. You can probably buy or scrounge a much larger standard ATX power supply much more cheaply ($30 new). Since you need so little power, you might be able to get away with disconnecting the fan inside the power supply -- or get fancy and add circuitry to just turn it on when it is needed, which should be never. But the power supply may be bigger than your computer!
Everyone is begging the MIT OLPC people to sell their $100 laptop to the rest of us. Maybe instead we should beg them to sell us something different and more suitable: A box the size of that laptop with no display, no keyboard etc, just a similar low power mainboard with I/O connectors!
I've seen some posts from Forum folk with VIA mini-ITX. Do they recommend them? Could we see pictures of the smallest pups in actual use?
It's too bad no one makes a VIA C3 co-processor Puppy/Linux system on a PCI board that we could put in old computers, give revived life to older parts.
We may have to just wait for a USB device with not just flash memory, but ram and cpu to run Puppy self-contained. Lacking a good peer-to-peer USB network, it should also have 10/100 ethernet. If they were about 1-in cubes, you could cluster them with ethernet and have hundreds romping together in your living room. Or add wireless and have them assemble in ad hoc mobs out on the playground...
(If you care about the environment, do not ever buy any new CRT computer monitors. Pounds of lead in the glass shielding! Either use a free one that your neighbors are discarding, or buy a good refurbished one, or save up for an LCD...)
(Sorry, this is all from a domestic-US perspective -- how do things look different elsewhere?
= = = = =
The computer that we want -- except that it costs $1000 instead of $100:
Very small system boxes, $165-200+:
Mini-ITX VIA EPIA MII10000, 1.0GHz Nehemiah:
The Onboard CardBus and CompactFlash slots are exp attractive -- but rather useless, since they are not bootable!
Mini-ITX dual-cpu $400:
Very small computers, $100-200+:
Complete computer the size of a stick of gum, starting at $100:
The power of a K6-233, except no FPU:
Might be able to run something like Puppy someday...

Post subject: OpenBrick
The OpenBrick project was started a few years back, thinking along these same lines. There are actual products, but they all cost too much.
OpenBrick is a small, light and silent open platform optimized for Open Source / Free Software solutions (firewall, micro-server, PABX, thin client, multimedia...). It is available for 300 to 400 EUR. It is distributed by a network of Open Source / Free Software companies who are joining through the OpenBrick Foundation to optimize it for GNU/Linux and FreeBSD, adapt it to new applications and improve its specifications...
VIA C3 based systems like we want, except for costing too much:
Retail Price: $390.00
OpenBrick-E 533Mhz VIA C3 3-LAN V.90 Modem
OpenBrick-E CV860A3R53 V.90
An interesting AMD-chipset $200 box that can run Puppy. They should give one to Barry for testing! But the USB 1.1 keeps it from being exciting:
Thinbox 333Mhz Geode CPU 128MB RAM
Thin ES466A
The Hacom thinbox is a low-cost thin-client. It is small ( 6.6 x 5.2 x 1.1 inches ) and light (about 1.5 lbs). The default configuration has a 333 Mhz x86 compatible AMD GX2-466 (Geode) processor, one (1) RJ45 LAN connector, and 128MB DDR RAM. Software can be installed on an optional Flash-IDE-Chip or via an external USB flash drive...
Many potential Puppy computers are held back by lack of USB 2.0. They might have 10/100 ethernet. There are USB-ethernet dongle adapters. What about going the other way? Are there any USB 2.0 hubs that can connect to a 10/100 port and provide full Linux USB functions to one computer, or a whole network?
Umigumi is a Free Software published under the General Public License which simplifies the gerenation of custom Linux distributions and their deployment on various media: Flash memory cards, LiveCD, hard disk, etc. Umigumi is also a fantastic tool for system integrators looking to automate configuration and quality assurance of complex Linux based solutions...

well, i already plugged the jack-pc... (
) its RISC-architecture would at the least require a kernel recompiling, though. now if they had a geode-based version, that'd be gravy.
actually, those gumstik PCs might work...if you can boot from the usb port or set up puppy on the MMC card. if you just had some sort of tiny monitor, you could theoretically build a portable pc (not a laptop).

I think I paied around $250 for my ML8000 Mini-ITX system. I acctually found it cheaper to buy a case with the power supplies (AC-DC & DC-DC) than it was to buy the power supplies and build a case. That included 512MB of DDRSDRAM and USB 2.0. It doesn't include a hard drive or optical drive, but Puppy boots from a 128MB USB stick (about$20 if you don't already have one) so it didn't really matter. Since then I've added a 20GB hard drive from an old iMac, and I've just ordered a CF to IDE adaptor to boot from.

Don't forget the Devon IT thin client that comes loaded with Puppy. It is about $230 with 256MB ram 128 MB CF to store puppy. Mine is pretty quiet with only 2 small fans, one on the power supply and one on the cpu. It came with 1.0.5 and I have since upgraded to 1.0.6 and installed a wifi card to talk with my router.

Small fans, especially quiet ones, tend to have sleeve bearings, which are unreliable and of very short life with catastrophic consequences for the electronics. It is easy to doctor them, though. Lift the label with a scalpel. If there is one, dig out the rubber or plastic plug protecting the bearing. Mix a tiny dot of molybdenum disulphide grease with one drop of sewing machine oil and wash a tiny portion of this into the bearing with a squirt of switch-cleaner fluid. Reassemble.
Purists will completely dismantle the bearing assembly, polish the shaft and use MoS2 as an assembly compound. Since this is a dry lubricant, the bearing should last forever in this light-duty application. The only difficult part of this operation is removing the shaft-retaining circlip. Two watchmakers No2 screwdrivers and an eye lens will help - be careful it doesn't fly out and become lost!

Post subject: MII10000 1.0 GHz VIA C3
Interesting two-part series, by Sal Cangeloso, 2005, some mentions of Puppy:
5 Sep Mini-ITX
15 Oct Mini-ITX Part II
My research had led me to believe that the best motherboard choice for my purposes was going to be a VIA EPIA which featured an embedded processor. ...Originally I wanted something fanless, like the MII6000, but due to availability we eventually settled on the MII10000. This motherboard features a 1.0 GHz VIA C3/ VIA Eden EBGA processor and the chipset is composed of a VIA CLE266 North Bridge and a VIA VT8235 South Bridge. The motherboard has some extras too, like built-in CF and PCMCIA readers.

My policy with computers is not to buy anything! (Three things worth buying in this world: records, books and food)
People dispose of perfectly good computers when they "upgrade" to the new Windows. Considering we're using Puppy I really don't see the need for a fancy new computer...

Check out some brand new information from GTA 5.
I'm curious about the economic system tbh. You can't buy houses, so what do you do with money??? Give me stuff to buy R*
i want to see NIKO returning, he's perhaps my favorite gta character ever
GTA IV is still one of my fav games ever but after i saw gta v, i can't help but think gta iv was only a tip of an iceberg
When I played The Ballad of Gay Tony I felt it had more of that GTA humour more than GTA4 which had a more serious tone, I still loved GTA4 but I prefer The Lost and Damned/The Ballad of Gay Tony. Can't wait to get my hands on GTA5 hopefully things from previous GTA's return :)

Blue Harbour's Robbins says fund owns more than 5 percent of Babcock
Blue Harbour Group founder and Chief Executive Officer Cliff Robbins said his activist fund owns more than 5 percent of Babcock & Wilcox, a clean-energy technology and services company.
The Charlotte, N.C.-based company has great management whose stock is "misunderstood," Robbins said Tuesday at the Active-Passive Investor Summit in New York.
Greenwich-based Blue Harbour sees at least 40 percent upside in Babcock & Wilcox, which has no debt and can buy back $750 million in stock, Robbins said. Traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "BWC," Babcock & Wilcox's stock fell 12 cents to $34.17 in trading Wednesday, giving the company a market value of $3.8 billion. The shares have climbed 32 percent in the past year.
Robbins, whose firm oversees about $2.3 billion, targets companies whose management teams may be open to new ideas, and works collaboratively with them to unlock value, avoiding hostile tactics such as proxy fights. He applies a longer-term private equity approach from his earlier career at KKR.
Blue Harbour holds stakes in companies including women's clothing retailer Chico's FAS, clinical software developer Allscripts Healthcare Solutions and Akamai Technologies, which helps speed Internet-data delivery.
Activist investors tend to buy at least 5 percent of a company's stock and flag their intention to actively engage corporate executives and directors by disclosing their holding in a 13D filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Irradiation-induced pneumonitis relies on the CD95/ CD95-L system
Suche in Medline nach
|20. März 2006
Pneumonitis is a dose-limiting side effect of radiotherapy for any thorax associated neoplasm. Clinically, it may cause an increase in breathing frequency due to respiratory insufficiency and results in a lethality rate up to 10%. Pneumonitis mostly occurs within irradiated areas of the lung but can spread to non irradiated areas, indicating that humoral factors might be involved. However, the underlying mechanisms of irradiation-induced pneumonitis are unclear. The current hypothesis suggests that complex alterations concerning epithelial/endothelial cells, macrophages/monocytes and a perpetual cascade of cytokine expression patterns are of major importance for the induction of pneumonitis. In this scenario several observations suggest an involvement of the CD95/CD95-ligand (CD95-L) system in proinflammatory cytokine responses and attraction of neutrophils. Moreover the expression of CD95 and CD95-L is induced by ionizing radiation. The aim of the present study was to gain insight into a putative involvement of the CD95/CD95-L system in radiation-induced pneumonitis. Mice with a genetically defined deficiency of the CD95 receptor (lpr) or the CD95 ligand (gld) and control mice with an intact CD95/CD95-L system (C57BL6/J) were analysed for their susceptibility to develop radiation-induced pneumonitis. To this end we examined the development of pneumonitis after single irradiation with 0/12,5 Gy to the right hemithorax in CD95 (lpr) or CD95L deficient (gld) and control mice (C57BL/6J) regarding breathing frequency and histopathological alterations. A highly significant increase in breathing frequency occurred in irradiated control mice between days 5 and 70. Furthermore, a clear inflammatory response with increased alveolar wall thickness, interstitial edema and enhanced number of inflammatory cells in the interstitial and peribronchial space was observed at days 21, 42 and 84 post irradiation (right lung > left lung). In contrast, no increase in breathing frequency and no inflammatory response was detectable in irradiated gld and lpr mice. These results suggest that the CD95/CD95L- system plays an essential role in the induction of morphological and functional alterations in the lung characteristic for irradiation-induced pneumonitis. This report demonstrates for the first time that the CD95CD95L system is of major importance for the development of irradiation induced pneumonitis, implicating new perspectives for future therapeutic and preventive strategies.

Green Architect Designs Airstream Recreations
October 7, 2011 by RVBusiness · Comments Off on Green Architect Designs Airstream Recreations
Editor's Note: The following is a blog from Mother Nature Network on Matthew Hofmann, an eco-minded architect who developed a passion for renovating vintage Airstream trailers.
For his latest project, green architect and vintage Airstream trailer renovator extraordinaire Matthew Hofmann transforms a middle-aged aluminum beauty into a tricked-out guesthouse-on-wheels.
Although the 28-year-old Hofmann, a LEED-accredited architect, is responsible for a handful of lovely more "traditional" residential properties, his passion for Airstream renovations began when he himself purchased a shiny, 25-foot long beauty from Craigslist, treated it an eco-friendly makeover, parked it on an oceanfront lot, and moved right on in with his girlfriend for an entire year.
Since then, Hofmann has emerged as a vintage trailer rehabilitation guru of sorts. His full-service architectural design firm, HoffArc, is now offering "a full range of services for restorations of vintage Airstream travel trailers and there's even a distinct HoffArc blog dedicated to the art of earth-friendly aluminum trailer touch-ups.
Santa Barbara-based Hofmann's most recent completed Airstream project, his second this year, is a guesthouse for a Rottweiler- and horse-loving avocado rancher who wanted to transform a 27-foot 1972 Tradewind Airstream trailer into a homey place where guests could feel "comfortable and not worry about staining the carpet."

By an overwhelming majority, voters in the Phelps County R-III School District Tuesday approved a school bond issue that will help pay for building safety improvements.
According to unofficial election results from the county clerk's website, there were 158 "yes" votes, or 78.61 percent, cast in favor of the no-tax-increase bond issue called Proposition Safety compared to 43 "no" votes, or 21.39 percent.
The proposition required approval by four-sevenths, or about 57.14 percent, of the voters to pass.
Passage of the school bond issue will keep the debt service levy unchanged at $0.1407 per $100 of assessed valuation of real and personal property.
"I'm very pleased with the outcome," said R-III District Superintendent Sherry Heavin. "Our community is very supportive of education, especially student safety ... I would like to thank the patrons of Phelps County R-III School District for supporting Proposition Safety. With their vote, they have enabled us to make a safer environment in which students can learn. It's very much appreciated."
The proposition, now that it has passed, will allow the school district to borrow $315,000 to be combined with a Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) grant to help pay for a tornado safe room and make other safety improvements to the school.
The total cost of the project is $551,248 and the school district will provide a 25 percent match, which translates to $137,812, Heavin said.
In addition to the safe room, the bond issue will help fund building renovations, such as new entrance doors with access control and upgrades to the cafeteria among other improvements.
School board race
Also in Tuesday's race, voters in the school district chose Eva Caroline Bradford and Justin Burrus to sit on the school board.
Bradford, Burrus and Kim Porter all were vying for two open seats on the board. School board members in the district serve three-year terms.
Burrus received the most votes with 128, or 36.57 percent, with Bradford close behind with 126 votes, or 36 percent. Porter received 96 votes, or 27.43 percent, according to the county clerk's website.
For Bradford, this will mark the beginning of her seventh term on the school board.
"I think it was my experience as a board member as much anything (that got me re-elected) plus my experience with community work," she said. "I would like the voters to know I appreciate their votes and their confidence."
Bradford said the issues she would like to focus on as a board member this term are budgetary issues and "making sure that we get our building upgrades done that are needed."
Burrus, who was elected as a newcomer, said he was "extremely excited" about being elected to the board. He said he was surprised and happy about the outcome of the election.
"I'd like to thank everyone in the district who voted for me," Burrus said. "I'm going to hit the ground running. I'm really happy with the school and I wanted to serve the community. I think it's always good to have some different ideas coming in."

If political activities on campus are any indicator, there may well be a generation of political leaders coming along who will be willing to bridge the partisan divide.
Massachusetts Alliance of College Republicans Chair Megan Dutra's political opinions differ greatly from those of Conor Finley, president of the Suffolk College Democrats, yet the two student leaders have been able to work together for the best interests of their University colleagues.
"It's upsetting to see how conflicted the state of politics is today and how it has really gridlocked this country," says Finley, a junior majoring in Political Science and Public Relations.
Both the College Democrats and College Republicans are actively involved in politics on a state and national level. The clubs host forums and debates each semester with prominent guest speakers.
Dutra and Finley say that they are in constant communication with one another.
"We really do a great job of letting one another know about opportunities to get involved around the city," says Finley.
The two have appeared on a number of different radio talk shows speaking on behalf of politically involved college students, and they were interviewed together on Fox 25 News following the presidential election.
"Optimism for next generation"
"I think that to be able to have two young students in politics that differ on fundamental issues, yet still manage to work together and help each other is a sign of optimism for the next generation of American politics" says Finley.
Dutra, a senior Philosophy major says that she's heard about very different types of relationships among students involved as College Democrats and College Republicans at other institutions and thus has come to appreciate just how collaborative the organizations are here at Suffolk.
"Working toward common goal"
"It's important to be able to educate students on all sides of the political spectrum," says Dutra. "And I think that one of the main reasons why the College Democrats and College Republicans have such a great relationship here is because we are both working toward the common goal of educating and preparing college students to form their own opinions on pressing issues -- and to take their political aspirations to the next level.
"There is no question that the next generation of politicians will soon be making their mark in American history. It is much more important to start getting students involved in politics and the government process rather than to be arguing with one another on who is right and who is wrong."

The Dutuit painter retains links with black figure decoration. His gracious miniaturist style continues in red figures, perpetuating the tradition of the "Little Masters" who decorated cups with black figures. It is to this vase acquired by the collector Auguste Dutuit that the painter, whose identity is unknown, owes his nickname.
This scene expresses all the delicacy characteristic of his style, taken almost to the point of preciousness. The winged goddess Artemis is standing in right profile. She holds a bow and arrow in her left hand and with the tips of the fingers of her right hand she lightly strokes a young fawn which is facing her.
Her bare feet, indicating close contact with nature, contrast with her elegant finery – a delicately-embroidered tunic, a pendant necklace, bracelets and hair styled in a high bun with ringlets escaping from a broad draped headband or cecryphale. Over her left shoulder is a lidded quiver containing her arrows, held in place by a shoulder strap.
The smallness of the fawn and its huge ears betray its extreme youth. With trusting innocence it is lifting its muzzle to respond to the invitation of the goddess whose fingers encircle it without touching it. Fearless, it is completely in Artemis' power, as is highlighted by the elements of the composition : the fawn's hooves are almost touching the goddess, its long ears look as if they are trapped between the bow and its string and they exchange glances. The painter subtlety conveys the hold the goddess has over all forms of animal life. Her deadly bow is temporarily stilled and her arrow points skyward. Artemis will surround the fawn with her warmth and protection until it reaches maturity.
Yet Artemis has appeared as a winged deity since the archaic period in the guise of Mistress of the Animals (Potnia Therôn). She is always depicted full-face flanked to either side symmetrically by animals, often lions rampant, symbols of the absolute authority of the goddess and her power of life and death over all animals, both those which threaten human life and those which nourish it.
The Dutuit Painter's vase has no other meaning. Beneath the apparent goodwill of the young Artemis, threatening implications can be clearly felt.

What Will You Replace Your Galaxy Player With?
I own a Samsung Galaxy Player 5 (SGP5) and use it every day, with over 80 downloaded apps, all of which run flawlessly. The screen size has been a perfect compromise of readability versus portability. So, you can understand my reaction to the news in another thread that Samsung is discontinuing the product line. To see what Samsung would say to verify or deny this, I emailed Samsung USA Customer Support and they replied:
We appreciate you contacting Samsung Electronics and being a valued customer. We understand that you would like to know if the Galaxy Player product line is being discontinued. We are very sorry for this inconvenience, the line is being discontinued.
and regarding a possible replacement in the form of a smaller Galaxy Tab:
We appreciate you contacting Samsung Electronics and being a valued customer. We understand that you would like to know if there will ever be a smaller Galaxy tablet. Unfortunately, we do not have a smaller Galaxy tablet coming out in the near future.
Of course, I realize the Samsung may just not want to reveal future product plans, but the delay in any SGP replacement news for the US market probably means they are abandoning that niche. I noticed that Archos has also dropped small-screen Internet tablets. I have also seen reports and evidence that even the 7" size tablet may be disappearing in favor of the 8-inch or larger size.
My main use of the SGP5 is Internet browsing, checking emails and Facebook, watching downloaded and Internet videos, offline GPS navigation (CoPilot is great), grab-and-shoot pictures and using specialty apps related to my interests. I prefer to use my SGP5 as my portable Android device while relying on a basic cell phone as my mobile phone. That saves my $360 per year in mobile data access charges.
So, even though my SGP5 is working fine now, I don't have an easy replacement should it ever quit, or become obsolete as Gingerbread falls out of favor with app developers. I know that may be a year of two into the future, and the market could change a lot by then, but if it happens sooner rather than later, I will be very interested to see what everyone else comes up with as a SGP replacement. Perhaps a new or used Galaxy S3, or Note, or other large-screen smartphone? I have even thought of buying a spare SGP5 before they completely disappear from the market, but that would be spending $220 on a potentially obsolete device that I may never need and that $220 would be better kept on hand for the eventual replacement, whatever that ends up to be.
I will be very interested in your comments, plans, and actual experience, in replacing your SGP when the time comes to do so.

The tin I used for this cake was a 9 inch round spring form cake tin and this made a decent sized cake for a bit of a birthday bash. I did think about icing this chocolate cake with fondant icing, but I was pushed for time, and I had made a cake like this once before for a cake club (see below) and it was quite successful and effective. This is a very colourful cake and I thought the design would suit a male recipient and it has appeal for children too (especially if they are having a colourful ball pool party).
Not a lot of effort goes into the decoration of this cake really, you just need a good tasty supply of chocolate buttercream, 3 packets of chocolate fingers and I also used up to 3 packets of the sharing size of
This is not a new design for a cake as this one has been around for a while, not sure who 'invented' the design but its quite effective when put together. Whoever came up with this idea was probably trying to save money by using chocolate fingers round the outside as chocolate cigarillos are usually used for this kind of cake, but these are very expensive and prone to breaking easily too.
You could do a variation on this cake to put fresh fruit on the top (strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries etc) or Maltesers or round Aero bubble chocolates or any other sweets really...just go for it.
If you go over to Ruth's Pink Whisk blog this recipe is about right for the cake I made, I'm sure she won't mind you using it. If you want other variants on this for other tin sizes then they are in the book.
1 home made chocolate cake size to suit the number of your guests
1 quantity of chocolate buttercream...made up as follows...
250g soft unsalted butter
420g icing sugar
80g cocoa powder
50g melted dark chocolate
milk (to loosen the buttercream a little)
(just mix everything up with a mixer and beat the life out of it, add milk to loosen a bit to spread easily)
3 packets of sharing bags Smarties
Make sure the bottom of the cake becomes the top (so its flat). Use two cocktail sticks in each part of the cake so that you know where to align the two sections of the cake back together again (a tip taken from Ruth's book).
2. At this stage put your cake onto some greaseproof paper. Start to lather it in buttercream, to do this start on the top of the cake and work your way across and down. Try to get it as even as you can, but it does not have to be perfect. Leave the cake to set for at least an hour in a cool place.
3. After an hour the buttercream will have set, move your cake onto a plate or cake board. Now add another thinner coat of buttercream all over the cake and try to get this layer as even as you can.
Now a very important bit...open the packets of fingers and before you put them on make sure one or more of the packets does not contain mostly broken fingers (this happened to me when I made this cake and this caused me to be short on fingers...so annoying when that happens).
4. Start to put the fingers around the cake sides and keep them straight and upright. If you have gaps between the fingers and the cake at the top edge do not worry, as the smarties will hide these once you put them on top.
5. Once you have all your fingers in an even row around the cake start to add the smarties on the top surface, make sure you have no gaps and that all the buttercream is covered up by smarties.
If you are mean with your smarties the cake won't look as good as this...doesn't this look great?
Here are some pictures of another version of the same kind of cake. I made this last year for a clandestine cake club where the theme was 'pink'. For this cake I used three different kinds of chocolate fingers, plain, milk and white and topped with pink smarties. (I added just one blue smart just to show off the pink more and to make it stand out a bit).


text: Production Journal August 23, 2013 09:30 PM Tweet TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By Farm Journal Editors Email By Charlene Finck and Sara Schafer Yield Estimates Before the Combines Roll What a year. After record-late planting and numerous weather challenges this year, some farmers are not predicting average or even above-average corn and soybean yields. On Aug. 12, USDA released its monthly Crop Production and World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates report, which included its first round of forecasts for yield. USDA surprised the trade by lowering yield projections for both corn and soybeans. USDA pegs this year's corn production at 13.8 billion bushels, up 28% from 2012. That sets a new record for U.S. corn production. The national average corn yield is forecast at 154.4 bu. per acre, a 2.1-bu. decrease from the July estimate. If this yield is reached, it will be the highest average yield since 2009. For soybeans, USDA estimates total production at 3.26 billion bushels, up 8% from 2012. If realized, that would be the third largest production on record. Soybean yields are forecast to average 42.6 bu. per acre, only 3 bu. higher than this past year's national average. Randy Martinson, Progressive Ag executive vice president, says USDA's yield reductions were quite a surprise. "It is hard to understand how USDA can reduce yields when crop conditions rates are improving—or at worst holding steady," he says. Barring any risk of early frost, Martinson believes the national average corn yield could reach 163 bu. per acre and the national average soybean yield hit 44 bu. per acre. From-the-Field Survey The 2013 Pro Farmer Crop Tour, which ran from Aug. 19–22, provides the industry with accurate late-season information about corn and soybean yields at the state and regional level. The tour covers seven key corn and soybean states.

Lez Zeppelin, the New York City-based all-girl band, has gained worldwide critical acclaim for the musicianship, passion, and gender-bending audacity it brings to the music of Led Zeppelin. Founded in 2004 by New York guitarist Steph Paynes, the group didn't take long to acquire a reputation for playing Zeppelin's music with a kind of passion and force beyond anyone's expectations, quickly attracting industry attention. In June 2005, Chuck Klosterman wrote an article for Spin magazine that featured Lez Zeppelin as a leading protagonist in a trend of all-female hard rock tribute bands. The fortunes and notoriety of the group surged, and Lez Zeppelin became a provocative subject for the news media across the world.
In April 2007, after extensive touring in the US and Europe, Lez Zeppelin released its eponymous debut. In the wake of this release, the band was invited as the first tribute band to ever appear at a series of major rock festivals, including the Download Festival (formerly Donnington Park) in the UK, Rock-Am-Ring and Rock-Im-Park in Germany, and the Voodoo Festival in New Orleans. However, it was an announcement in February of 2008 that Lez Zeppelin would take the stage at the Bonnaroo Festival that sparked a worldwide media storm. Throughout 2008, the group continued to tour heavily in the US and performed in Japan and India in support of its debut album.
Following a three-month tour of the US, the band headed back into the studio to start on a second album, which would take the group back to where it all began - Led Zeppelin's 1969 debut. Recording at Margouleff's Pie Studios, a world-class analog facility, the band employed all of the same vintage equipment used by Led in 1968, working fastidiously to recreate the incredibly complex layers of the album. Having released the disc in 2010, and fresh off a worldwide tour supporting the release, Lez Zeppelin continues to deliver a musical experience that not only exceeds expectations, but serves as the authentic female counterpart to one of the greatest rock groups of all time.
One of the leading British daily papers, The Independent, reports on Jimmy Page attending a recent Lez Zeppelin show in London:

Neat DIY project alert…
The Pumpkin Drive-In below was created by CFC Media Lab. The team assembled the piece as part of a Halloween pumpkin carving competition at the MaRS Discovery District in Toronto, Ontario.
They won the competition, and the director of the CFC Media Lab, Ana Serrano, decided she had to display the Pumpkin Drive-In again, this time in front of her house on the evening of Halloween. It was an absolute hit, all the kids in the neighborhood were instantly drawn to it!
The Pumpkin Drive-In is comprised of several parts: the pumpkin theatre screen, the concession pumpkin, the ticket distribution pumpkin, and the toy cars and scenery. Each of the pumpkins are simple enough to carve out and place the appropriate props within or around it as shown.
The pumpkin theatre is simply a pumpkin with the insides scooped out, and a large window cut out of the front and the back of the pumpkin. The screen is made of wax paper which lines the inside of the front window. A mini projector sits behind the rear of the pumpkin and projects an image (or film) onto the wax paper.
|the screen
Being that the F in CFC is film, we thought it appropriate to project an iconic Halloween film. You can however, choose to project your own film, photo slideshow, or still image instead. This is a great idea to project some fun ghoulish photography during a party or event (like even an exhibition maybe?).

|Development of the Intensity and Quality of the Heavy Ion Beams at GSI
|For injection into the future FAIR SIS100 synchrotron the GSI linear accelerator UNILAC and synchrotron SIS18 have to provide 1.5·1011 p/spill for the reference U28+ beam. The MeVVa ion source extracts 37 emA of U4+ beam. For improved transmission the RFQ vanes were revised and exchanged. A new ion source terminal with straightforward beam injection into the RFQ is calculated and partly realized for loss free beam transport to the RFQ. To improve the quality of the space charge dominated beam in the DFFD periodic focussing Alvarez section a transverse 4th order resonance was investigated by simulations and experimentally. The multi turn beam injection into the SIS18 requires emittances below βγεx/βγεy=0.8/2.5 [μm]. This suggests introducing a new concept for emittance transfer by solenoidal stripping. A set-up for experimental proof of principle will be installed at the foil stripper. The SIS18 has been equipped with NEG-coated chambers for all magnets and the injection septum. Newly installed ion catchers improve especially the dynamic vacuum pressure. The effect on progress in beam quality development and intensity will be reported.

2004-05 Preview
Becoming one of the most recognizable mid-major programs in the country is no easy task. However, that is exactly what the ETSU Buccaneers have accomplished in just the last two years.
After a 2002-03 season which saw the Bucs win 20 games and return to the NCAA Tournament for the first time in 10 seasons, the squad set an even higher standard of success in 2003-04. The team set program records for conference wins (15) and most wins in a row (16), and ran away with the Southern Conference regular season title, finishing with a 27-6 overall mark - just one win shy of the school record of 28.
By the end of the regular season, the national media had certainly taken notice of the Bucs. ETSU received votes in both the Associated Press Media and the ESPN/USA Today Coaches polls, and national publications such as Sports Illustrated, the Sporting News, and ESPN The Magazine were ready to start writing about this team from the hills of
As postseason play began, the Bucs did not disappoint. ETSU rolled through the Southern Conference Tournament and for the second straight year the ETSU faithful enjoyed a trip to the field of 65 and the NCAA Tournament. In the tournament, the Bucs - led by point guard Tim Smith (
As the Bucs looked back on such a memorable season, there were plenty of honors and awards to be shared by everyone. First-year head coach Murry Bartow was named the Southern Conference Coach of the Year, while senior forward Zakee Wadood (Lonoke, Ark.) took home Player of the Year honors. Smith was named the Southern Conference Tournament MVP for a second straight year, and Smith, Wadood and senior forward Jerald Fields (
"Last year was certainly exciting for our team and our fans," said head coach Murry Bartow. "Our players accomplished a lot last season, but now our focus is toward building for the future. We already enjoy a winning tradition here, but it's our goal to take the next step with this program."
As the Bucs prepare for the upcoming 2004-05 season, the excitement of the previous two seasons is only growing. ETSU returns its entire backcourt this season, led by Smith, senior James Anthony (
With a newly renovated home-floor seating plan, a state-of-the-art scoreboard overhead, and more television exposure than ever before, the 2004-05 season is certainly expected to be a special one again in
It does not take long to analyze this season's ETSU roster and realize the strength of the team is found on the perimeter. The Bucs return all three starters from a year ago, with Smith - already a 1,000-point scorer in just two seasons - joined by Anthony and Rhoda. A year ago, Smith scored in double figures 29 times and eclipsed 20 points in 12 games - including seven straight 20-point efforts to end the season. While Smith's electrifying floor game served to help power the ETSU offense a year ago, both Anthony and Rhoda provided plenty to the cause as well. Anthony was the team's top clutch shooter, connecting on a team-high 61 3-point field goals and hitting on a 42 percent clip from outside the arc. Meanwhile, Rhoda was fourth on the team in scoring, averaging 10.7 ppg with his gritty, hard-nosed style of play.
While those three players look to continue to build on their career numbers, sophomore Travis Strong (
In addition, sophomore Aaron Scott (
"Our backcourt should be and is expected to be a point of strength for us this year," Bartow said. "Tim Smith is one of the most exciting players in the country, but he is not a one-man show. With Ben Rhoda, James Anthony, Travis Strong, Aaron Scott, Sam Oatman and Mike Tolliver, we have several options on the perimeter."
The loss of senior Jerald Fields and Zakee Wadood can not be minimized. Both were 1,000-point scorers and two of the most successful players in the history of ETSU basketball. However, Bartow is convinced he still has players capable of giving the Bucs a formidable presence under the basket. Junior Brad Nuckles (Council, Va.), and junior college transfers Chris Mitchell (Chicago) and Dillion Sneed (Chicago), top that list of candidates.
Nuckles returns after playing significant minutes and becoming one of the team's most dependable big men the past two seasons. At 6-foot-9, he is the Bucs' tallest player, averaging 5.8 ppg, 4.4 rpg, and 1.2 blocks per game a year ago. Meanwhile, Mitchell joins the Bucs after a 2003-04 season in which he was named a JuCo All-American, averaging 17.0 points and 10.5 rebounds at
Joining Nuckles, Mitchell and Sneed will be true freshman signees Andrew Reed (Port Richey,
"We recruited solely to fill the holes left by Jerald and Zakee," Bartow said. "We believe we did that with the additions of Chirs Mitchell, Dillion Sneed, Andrew Reed and Greg Surmacz, and we are expecting a great deal from Brad this season."
Yet again this season, the Buccaneers will challenge themselves with a daunting non-conference schedule, as well as the always tough Southern Conference slate. Road games at
The Bucs will once again compete in the ESPN Bracket Buster Saturday on Feb. 19 against a still-to-be-determined opponent, and other tough home games include Furman (Jan. 8), Appalachian State (Jan. 29), UNC Greensboro (Feb. 12) and Chattanooga (Feb. 21).
"Our schedule is demanding, but strong teams play strong schedules," Bartow said. "We expect to be challenged and we expect those challenges to prepare us for the postseason. As a coach, that is what you want from a quality schedule."

"What is great about this panel (except its resolution) is that it has an eDisplayPort interface (which is supposed to replace LVDS in the near future), and as this hack proves it is compatible with traditional DisplayPort outputs found on all modern video cards. The panel is also surprisingly cheap - I got mine on ebay for $55, shipped from China. Hoping that eDisplayPort is compatible with regular DisplayPort (I couldn't find conclusive proof of this), I went on to interface the panel with a DP cable." Cool.

Indonesian Wikitravel Expedition
The Indonesian Wikitravel Expedition is an expedition to create a Indonesian-language version of Wikitravel.
For more information on multilingual Wikitravel policy, please see Language version policy.
Indonesian (Bahasa Indonesia) is the main language of en:Indonesia and one of the working languages of en:East Timor. Being closely related to Malay, it is also understood in en:Malaysia, en:Brunei and en:Singapore. There are over 250 million native speakers worldwide. These travelers would be well-served by a Wikitravel travel guide in their language.
In addition, contributions in Indonesia would help the other Wikitravel language versions. Many Indonesian-speaking areas are major travel destinations; having locals update information in their native tongue (which could then be translated to other languages) would make for better information in all the Wikitravel guides.
This Expedition has the following goals:
The Language version policy lists the steps necessary to get a Indonesian-language Wikitravel in place.
Gathering a team of users
To get this project started, we need at least 3 Indonesian-speaking users willing to help start the Indonesian Wikitravel. This means helping to translate the interface files, create content on the new Wikitravel, and to create the necessary infrastructure to make Wikitravel welcoming and useful for the next wave of contributors.
If you're interested, please create a user account here on Wikitravel Shared, and sign the list below. To sign, type four tildes (~~~~)
More than 3 users are welcome to sign up, but we need at least 3 to get started.
If there are no objections, tedonk21 has volunteered to act as go-between for this new language.
Language interface file
MediaWiki, the software that runs Wikitravel, uses a language interface file to make the links and names and prompts and stuff readable in other languages. We need to customize a new version to work for Indonesian Wikitravel. Once the language version is launched, this can be done online by editing Special:Allmessages.

Generating a Hierarchical HTML Outline
Graph databases like InfoGrid are much better at traversing recursive data structures than relational databases. That is probably an established fact by now and not controversial.
But what does this mean in practice?
Here is an example just how simple it can be to generate a hierarchical HTML outline from a graph using InfoGrid's custom tags:

 <tree:treeIterate startObjectName="Subject" traversalSpecification="xpath:*" meshObjectLoopVar="current"> <tree:down>

 </tree:down> <tree:up>

 </tree:up> <tree:nodeBefore>
 <mesh:meshObject meshObjectName="current"/>
 </tree:nodeBefore> </tree:treeIterate>

The result is a set of nested HTML definition lists, which are a good match for an outline in HTML.
By way of explanation of this example, the outer tag is a big loop, which iterates over all elements in the outline. Every time we walk down the tree, the <tree:down> tag fires and emits the HTML list start element contained there. Every time we walk up the tree, the corresponding <tree:up> tag triggers and closes the list. "Subject" is the name of the start node as JSP bean, and the xpath-like expression is used to describe which branches to traverse in the graph, because it would just as simple traversing the opposite direction, or sideways.
I don't think it gets much simpler Imagine the pain in SQL, particularly if the tree is deep …

As President Barack Obama is sworn in today for his second term, it will stir a lot of memories for locals who witnessed previous inaugurations.
As President Barack Obama is sworn in today for his second term, it will stir a lot of memories for locals who witnessed previous inaugurations.
Watching history is life changing, said local resident Lanesia Daigs, whose family attended Obama's inauguration in 2009.
"We had such an amazing time. Bringing my 2-year-old may not have been a good idea to some people, but she witnessed history that day, and she will carry these pictures and memories for the rest of her life," Daigs said.
"Leaving Houma and witnessing all the love and support the president received from such a diverse crowd instead of hate was heartwarming. I will never forget this day as long as I live. Words can never describe the experience," she added.
Daigs said she and her sisters decided the night of the 2008 election that "with or without tickets to the actual event we were going to be in D.C. the day of to witness history in person."
"My sister worked on the campaign in Ohio, so she was able to get my entire family tickets. I booked the flights, and on Christmas morning we gave our daddy, a Martin Luther King Jr. and history fanatic, a letter telling him that he would be attending the inauguration," she said. "I think it was the best gift we have ever given him."
Other local residents who witnessed an inauguration include Vickie Lorraine, who said she has lasting memories of former President George H. W. Bush being sworn in during 1989.
The free passes are usually available within two months of the inauguration date. Anyone can request tickets from their state's U.S. senators and representatives, but the number of tickets given are limited. So some offices have instituted lottery systems to give out tickets.
Seeing this as an opportunity, scalpers have been selling inauguration tickets online for up to $2,000 each.
Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York, a member of the joint congressional committee on inaugural ceremonies, said eBay and Craigslist have agreed to his request to stop scalpers from selling tickets.
It's not illegal to sell them, but inauguration tickets that people get from members of Congress are supposed to be free, The Associated Press reported Friday.
Today's inauguration will be particularly sentimental for the nation. The ceremony falls on Martin Luther King Jr. Day during the 50th anniversary of the height of the Civil Rights Movement. Many events are planned to honor the slain activist and the movement.
King's Bible will be used for the swearing-in, and Obama has invited Myrlie Evers-Williams to deliver the invocation. Evers-Williams is the widow of Medgar Evers, a black civil rights activist who was assassinated outside his home in June 1963. .
Arlanda Williams, Terrebonne Parish Council member, spent the weekend in Washington participating in the inaugural events. In the week leading up to her departure, Williams said she was very excited and humbled at the opportunity.
But Williams said she was not surprised she received tickets to all three inaugural functions — the swearing-in ceremony, inaugural ball and inaugural parade. Williams is Parish Council chairwoman, second vice chair of the 184-member state Democratic Party's executive committee, first chair of the National Association of County Officials and a member of the Democratic National Committee.
"In keeping with the spirit of this weekend and Martin Luther King Jr. Day, I sent out a (Facebook) request to my more than 1,500 Facebook followers to do an act of kindness so we can find a way to start bridging the gap and really living out the dream. Part of the dream was that we one day walk hand in hand," Williams said. "As I commemorate Dr. King's vision, I have a great sense of pride to be attending the inauguration of President Obama's second term."

Re: Feature Request: Calendarbill Mar 6, 2007 11:57 PM (in response to clarkritchie)
Awesome -- great to hear that you guys like Clearspace.
Funny you should ask about calendars. We're looking at doing
integrations with all the major ones: Exchange, Google or generic iCal
(ie, Zimbra). The idea is that we'd pull in calendar information (read
only) and show it on user's profile page or on a space (for a group /
I have a few questions for you:
What's your Calendar server now? I'm assuming Exchange.
How many users do you have?
What would you use public folders for? What would you hope to retrieve
from them?
What would you expect to be able to do or see if your calendar was
viewable from CS?
Re: Feature Request: Calendarclarkritchie Mar 7, 2007 7:22 AM (in response to bill)
What's your Calendar server now? I'm assuming Exchange.+
Exchange, but usage is just better than ad-hoc. Today, shared Public Folders are partially leveraged. With the right encouragement we could easily make Public Folders the defacto calendar repository. Most people use outlook today so that would be easy to do. If there was a RO view in Clearspace that would help improve visibility since not everyone knows how to access Public Folders today.
* How many users do you have?
65 or so.
+* What would you use public folders for? What would you hope to retrieve from them?
+One example: our Marketing dept. wants to publish a calendar of all the upcoming events.
* What would you expect to be able to do or see if your calendar was viewable from CS?
Wouldn't expect to be able to do much except browse the calendar. I would be comfortable if the only edit mode was, again, through the native source (Exchange Public Folders). So really all you would need is, perhaps, the ability to switch between views
day, week, monthbut that's about it.
I am trying to keep it simple here. Anything that facilitates exposure to information, particularly information that already exists elsewhere (yet may not be easily accessible for everyone) would be a win.
Re: Feature Request: Calendarbill Mar 7, 2007 8:26 AM (in response to clarkritchie)
Great, thanks for your feedback. We're starting work on this and I'll
let you know when we have something to play with.
Re: Feature Request: Calendarbobjewell Feb 15, 2008 11:21 AM (in response to bill)
Any news on this feature?
Re: Feature Request: Calendarmphilips Mar 14, 2007 12:23 PM (in response to bill)
We also want it. Some of our tech folks are using Confluence's calendar plugin, to show team vacations, who's on call, etc. Corporate events, conferences, etc. would be nice too.
Exchange. 200+ users.
Lower priority.
Re: Feature Request: Calendarabakwaboy Mar 16, 2007 8:07 AM (in response to mphilips)
The ability to schedule meetings and other events would be very useful to us. The members of our community are located in different parts of the world and would like the ability to request meeting appointments with other members, suggest a time and place for the meeting and view their meeting appointments.
Since we also have at least 6 conferences a year, we would like to schedule these as community-wide or space-specific events in a calendar.
Re: Feature Request: Calendardrgoochmobile Jul 15, 2008 12:49 PM (in response to abakwaboy)
Here here! On this request. I currently have to have our EA manually update a MS Word calendar of our group's various meetings through the year. A master calender in which community-specific events could be added would be great.
Ideally a user would be able to view calendar entries within their community or view the master. Within a community, the upcoming events could be viewed through a calendar/upcoming events widget while an additional tab (ie like the Discussions, Documents tab) would take them to a calendar view. Taking it a step further, those with priviledges to create calendar items would be able to set-up reminder dates with email notifications going out to those subscribed to the community/calendar to remind them of upcoming events.
Re: Feature Request: CalendarJeremySL May 15, 2007 5:38 PM (in response to clarkritchie)
We're currently evaluating using Clearspace for a couple for 100 - 300 user cross location Intranet, and a read only calendar feature would be awesome. We have internal tools release schedules and product release schedules that would be great to be able to show on a space by space basis. Microsoft Exchange would be perfect, but honestly, a bespoke custom calendar widget would be fine too.
Re: Feature Request: Calendaralange.bto Jun 12, 2007 8:37 AM (in response to clarkritchie)
Hello, for which release you've scheduled it - are there any News? Would be very nice to have a solution to work with.
Thank you very much
