Wanting to Bond with Son, Dad's Reddit Post Seeking to Understand 'Drag Race' Goes Viral
A single father asking the "RuPaul's Drag Race" sub-Reddit for help with understanding the show so he can relate to his teen son, who is a fan of the reality show, is going viral this week.
"Okay so I'm a single parent of two amazing boys (4-year-old and 15 years old)," writes the dad, who goes by the username dad_of_a_fan. "My 15-year-old has a tough time at school, being shy and having a stutter.
"I was cleaning up his room while he was in the shower and I need this show (rupaul) was paused on Netflix," he continued. "He has been using different kind of phrases like 'the shade' and 'I'm gagging' (that one worried me at first). I googled the shade and found it was a drag term but I didn't understand it.
"Is there any advice you can give me? I won't embarrass him and start quoting the show but when he said he was 'gagging' I had no idea how to react," the father wrote. "I would like to know how to react. I was hoping I could get a crash course on this sort of chat.
"Any tips would be awesome and any stories or general advice would help," he added. : I'm sure he is gay too for other reasons."
The post received hundreds of responses on Reddit, many of which were incredibly supportive. The post spilled over on other social media platforms, like Twitter, with users gushing over the father's attempt to understand his teen boy. Some screenshots of the dad's post have gone viral on Twitter as well.
Below, check out the father's post in full along with some of the best Twitter responses.

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg made a really important point in his company's fourth-quarter earnings call—one that everyone should listen to, not just Wall Street analysts.
Last year, Facebook made big improvements to its iPhone and Android apps.
The changes weren't about adding a bunch of new features. Instead, Facebook reengineered its apps for "speed and stability."
That's actually what matters more to users.
This insight is very comparable to what Google saw a decade or more ago on the desktop Web: Increasing the speed with which Web pages loaded was one of the biggest factors in boosting usage of Google's search engine. It even started judging other websites based on how fast their pages loaded.
So the same thing is true in mobile: People like apps that work quickly and don't crash more than apps that have tons of features.

Jim.balding necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 611 diseños de 150 diseñadores freelance.
The ANT Group
I am an architect and technologist starting a new type of architectural design firm that specializes in architecture AND new design technologies. The full firm name is "The Architecture and New Technologies Group, Inc." We will be going by "The ANT Group" or simply "ANT". The firm will be basing its culture (if that is possible) on a few books (The Art of Innovation by Tom Kelley and REWORK by 37signals). I like their new approach to companies, culture and open thought process. The firm will have a core of designers and technologists and associate with others in a group sourcing type manner. We will be implementing BIM, Augmented Reality, Immersive Environments, 3D Rapid Prototyping/CNC/Pre-Fabrication, Telepresence, Mobile and Cloud Computing, Laser Scanning, Touch and Multi-Touch, Stylus (Wacom) and Tablets (on and on) into the design and construction industries. Additional info/questions - email@example.com
We will be targeting owners, developers, other architectural firms (to consult with on technology), hardware and software vendors, as well as individuals looking for more information on design technologies. This will be in new markets as well as the existing. We are out to prove that technology can enhance the AEC (architecture, engineering and construction) industry by streamlining the process with efficient use of technological tools. This logo will be on all marketing material, drawings, swag, and all presentations giving by the firm members at various technology conferences.
I am looking for a logo that also contains an *icon*, an ant of some sort. Must be professional, contemporary, and convey serious, innovative high design firm. Must be distinctive and simple. All the current ideas to date have had a profile of an ant or ant head. The logo/icon should be clean/contemporary and individualized! Totally open to color but no reds or blacks, I do not want to be too literal. I would like the designers to take some liberties with their interpretation of an ant, could be simple brush strokes or straight profile single color. Could tie in with the company name "The ANT Group" or not. The fonts are wide open as well. Would like the font selection to be readily available Windows font *if possible*. Open to font interpretations as the logo could be an image file wherever it is use. Logo and icon should fit in a square.
What has NOT worked is literal ants with hair, fangs etc., ants building the logo, holding up letters, and aggressive looking. No cartoons. This ant needs to be approachable. I am hesitant to post the previous logo designs as I do not want any pre-conceived notions to interfere with the creativity I expect. I may post later if it helps inspire... PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CREATE AND INTERPRET!!! I like Apple, Nike, MSN butterfly, Puma, VW, Audi, A&E logos.

Most Content
- 1 Simpler overview is here: Workflow
- 2 Overview/Checklist
- 3 Important things to remember about working with the server
- 4 Preliminary steps on the server
- 5 Getting content from the share drive to live in Acumen
- 6 Archiving content
Simpler overview is here: Workflow
- Make sure everything is properly prepared for upload (see Preparing Collections)
(If new to this process, see Command-line_Work_on_Linux_Server)
- Run makeFits script on server in scripts directory
- This will take some time, probably hours
- Check the corresponding ouput file located in the scripts output directory
- If there are errors, run FixFits, in the same directory; else it will say "Everything looks fine."
- If this is an ongoing collection, add today's date (no spaces) to the end of the collection directory name, to distinguish it from other sets of batches.
- Run holdContent, a script which
- puts tiffs, FITS, OCR, and collection xml (if there) in hold4metadata directory on server
- makes a collection directory in For_Metadata_Librarians and puts the Metadata directory and contents there
- generates smaller, non-watermarked images for metadata librarians in a Jpegs directory there
- deletes the collection in Digital_Coll_in_Progress
- Wait till you hear that the MODS are ready: Metadata librarians will move collection to Return_To_Digital_Services
- a weekly script, checkStatusDS will watch for content returned there, and will:
- check their jpegs against our tiffs
- check their MODS against their jpegs
- if all good, the script will delete their jpegs and move the collection to Digital_Coll_Complete for processing -- then notify us
- if problems, the script will send us a list of errors, and leave the collection in Return_To_Digital_Services
- If collection is still in Return_To_Digital_Services, resolve issues (may require renaming TIFFs and regenerating FITS to replace those on server), then rerun checkStatusDS (in ds /home/scripts/) till all is good
- a weekly script, checkStatusDS will watch for content returned there, and will:
*** NOTE: checkStatusDS will FAIL if the metadata librarians have renamed either the Jpegs folder OR the collection folder, as the script depends on these to test against the TIFFs in the hold4metadata directory on the server. This is INTENTIONAL so that we can give the metadata librarians multiple batches of scans within a single collection folder AND/OR multiple sets of content for a single collection, as we may digitize far more quickly than they create metadata. For ongoing large collections this would be an issue. Number/name batches and or sets of collection content appropriately, and DO NOT REUSE any already in their directory.
- Run jpegs2Server, a script which:
- copies the MODS to the UploadArea for online delivery and Deposits for archiving, and deletes the version from the Share drive
- copies any .txt files in the Metadata to the Deposits for archiving
- creates watermarked JPEG derivatives and thumbs of all the TIFFs and puts them into the UploadArea
- generates MIX files and logs technical metadata to the database
- moves any Excel spreadsheets to Administrative\Pipeline\collectionInfo\Storage_Excel
- moves the TIFFs to Deposits
- uploads transcripts & OCR to the Acumen database
- checks the collection XML (if there is one; warns you if it needs one) and gets it in the database, online, and in Deposits
- removes the hold4metadata folder and the Digital_Coll_Complete folders if empty
- sends you an email to check the output, and then run relocate_all to get stuff in Acumen
- check the output of jpegs2Server, and look to make sure all the content is gone from Digital_Coll_Complete; also eyeball the Upload directories to make sure MODS and Jpegs are there ready and waiting.
- Run relocate_all, a script which puts that content in the UploadArea in the right places in Acumen
- Check error report. If no errors, run findMissing. Correct any problems found.
Problems? See Troubleshooting
Important things to remember about working with the server
- Think long and hard before you run upload scripts on more than one collection at a time. Yes, it is possible to run the same scripts on multiple collections at a time. But just because it's possible doesn't mean you should do it. If something goes wrong, it can be very difficult to disentangle the separate collections in order to fix the problem.
- Do not run the same script more than once at a time on a particular collection. If a script encounters a problem such that it doesn't finish running, do not just run it again. We do not want two instances of the same script running simultaneously. This gets very confusing and multiplies the possibility of error exponentially!
- If you need to kill a script, please see someone who manages the scripts (Jody or the Repository Manager). Closing the current Terminal Window (the command line interface) of SSH Secure File Transfer does not kill the scripts that are running. This is especially important to remember for makeJpegs, which splits into two processes as soon as you run it (whether you see results of this in the UploadArea or not).
- When checking a libcontent folder for ongoing upload status, hit Refresh. The SSH File Transfer Window will not refresh on its own.
Preliminary steps on the server
- make sure that the Windows share is mounted: type into the ssh window on libcontent: `ls /cifs-mount` -- if no listing appears, or the window hangs up, you need to mount the share drive. Otherwise, proceed to getting content from the share drive...
- To mount the Windows drive, type this in on the commandline on libcontent: `sudo mount -t cifs -o username=jjcolonnaromano,domain=lib //libfs1.lib.ua-net.ua.edu/share/Digital\ Projects/ /cifs-mount` and use the password for share for Jeremiah. If successful, the command in the last step will show you the directories within the Digital Projects folder on Share.
- Make sure that all quality control scripts have been run, and all corrections made.
- Add today's date (no spaces) to collection directory name if this is an ongoing collection. Make sure scans batch numbers are not repeats.
- Log onto libcontent and change into the scripts directory. (see Command-line_Work_on_Linux_Server)
- Create FITS with the makeFits scripts on the server (in the scripts directory, not in the UploadArea).
- Change into UploadArea/scripts, and run holdContent, which should email you.
- Check for any errors in output; your directory should have disappeared from the working area, and part of it should reappear in For_Metadata_Librarians, and part in the /srv/deposits/hold4metadata/ directory.
After Content Returns from Metadata Librarians
- If the content remains in Return_To_Digital_Services, check the problems list in the email notification.
- You may need to rename collection directory or batch directories (on the share drive) to what they were originally
- You may need to rename TIFFs in /srv/deposits/hold4metadata/ and either modify & rename FITS files, or regenerate them
- Then rerun checkStatusDS till all is clear, and collection gets moved to Digital_Coll_Complete.
- Run jpegs2server on the content that the last script moved to Digital_Coll_Complete, without changing anything.
- Check output file, MODS and JPEGs in UploadArea, and ensure collection disappeared from the Completed folder.
- If/When all is good, run relocate_all
- Check output file for any issues.
- Run findMissing in /home/ds/scripts/ and check the output. This script will hunt through Acumen to make sure there is a MODS file for every item, and at least one derivative for each MODS file. Any errors will be found in the output file written to the scripts/output directory. If errors are found, get Metadata folks to regenerate those MODS -- or you regenerate JPEGs/MP3s, then rerun relocate_all. Then run this script again to ensure all errors have been remedied. (Script here: File:FindMissing.txt)
- Check the indexing of the uploaded content the next day to verify. (Content is currently being indexed each day overnight.)
Quick Steps
- Login as DS and navigate to scripts
- Type in makeFits (check output)
- Navigate to UploadArea/scripts (CLOSE ALL DIRECTORIES)
- Type in holdContent (check output)
- Repair problems if any, and run checkStatusDS until clear

03/10/2010 (10:00PM - 11:00PM) (Wednesday) : A WOMAN'S MURDER IS LINKED TO A VAST PONZI SCHEME THAT LEADS DETECTIVES BENSON (MARISKA HARGITAY) AND STABLER (CHRISTOPHER MELONI) TO REOPEN THE INVESTIGATION OF A SIMILAR CRIME COMMITTED TWENTY YEARS EARLIER
When security cameras record footage of a woman being abducted, it isn't long before Captain Donald Cragen (Dann Florek) and the SVU squad find the woman dead in the basement. Detective John Munch (Richard Belzer) recalls a similar case from twenty years before, sending Detectives Olivia Benson (Mariska Hargitay) and Eliot Stabler (Christopher Meloni) to Sing Sing to speak to the culprit, who begs them to reopen his case and prove his innocence. As strange similarities between the two cases begin to arise, Benson and Stabler face fierce opposition from Ingrid Block (guest star Lena Olin), the pit bull attorney for the main suspect who will do whatever it takes to prove her client's innocence. Ultimately, it falls on DA Jack McCoy (guest star Sam Waterston) to decide whether or not the ruthless lengths to which Block went to defend her client constituted a crime itself. Also starring: Ice-T (Detective Odafin Tutuola), Tamara Tunie (Dr. Melinda Warner), and B.D. Wong (Dr. George Huang).

Olympic Living
Most of the athletes competing in the Olympics compete for nothing more than the love of their sport. Let's face it, being the 10th best ping-pong player in the world probably isn't going to make you a whole lot of money. I think that's one of the reasons that this Forbes slideshow is interesting. Granted, it shows mainly the haves of the international sporting circuit but it also shows the disparity between mainstream and non-mainstream sports.
If you really want to see what sports can get you, though, it's too bad they didn't include baseball in the Olympics this year. If so, they could have featured Derek Jeter's Tampa monstrosity:
LeBron may be king but Jeter has the palace.

Can you tell me the difference between the following:
Developed Program (noun phrase I believe)...and...
Program Developed. (how is this classified?)
In general I am trying to understand what the grammatical difference between placing an adjective prior to the noun and placing a past tense verb after the noun.
I get the question, but I'm not sure I understand the structures you're looking for. You see, 'developed' is not a past tense verb. It's a participle. That is, it's part of a verb.Originally Posted by sting
Let's look at the distribution of 'developed'. :D
Adjective + Noun
We'll want the developed program when you're done.
==> 'developed' is a participle in form and an adjective in function. It's called a participle because it tends to go hand-in-hand with verbs (i.e., it's part of a verb phrase, like 'was developed', 'have developed', 'had developed'). If 'developed' is on its own, that is, if there is no other verbal element next to it, then it doesn't function as a verb. In 'developed program' it functions as an adjective. Note that, it answers the question, "What kind of program?" => the developed one. :wink:
Noun + Adjective
We'll need the program developed by Monday.
=> 'developed' is a participle in form, and since there is no other verbal element present (i.e., next to it), it's not functioning as a verb. 'developed' is next to a noun. It modifies the noun 'program'. If we rephrase the sentence, like this, ...the program will be developed by Monday, we notice the verb phrase, 'will be' is a form of the verb BE. Note that, forms of the verb BE (is, am, are, was, were, be) function like the Math sign "=". That is, they are not really "verbs" in the sense that they are actions, that someonne or something can act them out, so even if a participle is next to a form of the verb BE, it's still considered a participle e.g., I am tired; the program to be developed.
Noun + Verb
The program developed the pictures.
=> 'developed' is a verb in form and a verb in function. Verbs move in predictable ways: they come after the subject and they tend to take objects:
EX: The program (Subject) developed (Verb) the pictures (Object)
In English, each sentence has two main things: A subject and a verb, and those units agree in person and number:
EX: The program (Subject) develops (Verb) the pictures.
Notice the -s on 'develops'. It agrees in person and number with the Subject 'The program':
EX: The program/It develops the pictures.
When we compare the underlined portions in 1. and 2. below, we find that 1. has both a subject and a verb, whereas 2. does not;
1. The program developed the pictures.
Subject: The program, Verb: developed
2. We'll need the developed program by Monday.
Subject: None; Verb: None
'developed' comes after 'the' and before 'program'; that is, is appears in the middle of a noun phrase, which makes it an adjective in function. :wink:
Now let's look at sentence 3.:
3. We'll need the program developed by Monday.
In this case, we have a noun + participle sequence. Note that, participles do not function as verbs unless they are part of another verb (i.e., was developed, is developed, has developed, have developed). In 3., 'developed' is by itself, so we can conclude that it's not functioning as a verb. We can also rephrase the underlined portion with a form of the verb BE, like this,
EX: the program will be developed by Monday.
We can also clarify the meaning, like this,
EX: We will need someone to develop the program by Monday.
The underlined portion functions as the object of the verb 'will need'. Within that object, 'someone' functions as the subject, 'to develop' functions as the verb, and 'the program' functions as the object of that verb:
EX: Someone (Subject) to develop (Infintive Verb) the program (Object).
The wonderful thing about participles is that they come from verbs. Notice to develop the program can be rephrased as program developed. :D The difference between the two is word order, and in English word order carries meaning:
to develop the program (Verb + Noun)
==> Someone acts upon the program / The program is acted upon.
program developed (Noun + Participle)
==> The program = a state.
developed program (Participle + Noun)
==> A kind of program.
All the best, :D

INITTODR(9) NetBSD Kernel Developer's Manual INITTODR(9) NAME inittodr -- initialize system time SYNOPSIS void inittodr(time_t base); DESCRIPTION The inittodr() function determines the time and sets the system clock. It tries to pick the correct time using a set of heuristics that examine the system's battery-backed clock and the time reported by the file sys- tem, as given in base. Those heuristics include: · If the battery-backed clock has a valid time, and is not signifi- cantly behind the time provided by base, it is used. · If the battery-backed clock does not have a valid time, or is signif- icantly behind the time provided in base, and the time provided in base is within reason, base is used as the current time. · If the battery-backed clock appears invalid, and base appears non- sensical or was not provided (was given as zero), an arbitrary base (typically some time within the same year that the kernel was last updated) will be used. Once a system time has been determined, it is stored in the time vari- able. DIAGNOSTICS The inittodr() function prints diagnostic messages if it has trouble fig- uring out the system time. Conditions that can cause diagnostic messages to be printed include: · There is no battery-backed clock present on the system. · The battery-backed clock's time appears nonsensical. · The base time appears nonsensical. · The base time and the battery-backed clock's time differ by a large amount. SEE ALSO clock_ymdhms_to_secs(9), resettodr(9), time_second(9) BUGS Some systems use heuristics for picking the correct time that are slightly different. NetBSD 9.0 September 6, 2006 NetBSD 9.0

The Role of Theory in Advancing 21st Century Biology: Catalyzing Transformative Research (September 2007)Report in Brief
Theory is an integral part of all biological research. Biologists' theoretical and conceptual frameworks inform every step of their research, affecting what experiments they do, what techniques and technologies they develop and use, and how they interpret their data. At the request of the National Science Foundation, this National Research Council report examines whether a greater emphasis on theory would be useful in advancing biology. The report concludes that theory is already an inextricable thread running throughout the practice of biology; but that explicitly giving theory equal status with other components of biological research could help catalyze transformative research that will lead to creative, dynamic, and innovative advances in our understanding of life.

From Hybridgraphics
Bumblebee allows you to run specific programs on the discrete graphic card, inside of an X session using the integrated graphic card. Martin Juhl started with the project and published under GPL v3 and now continues with [Ironhide] (deprecated). To improve co-operation, developers decided to fork the project into a team: Bumblebee-Project.
This is very inseretting, You're a very skilled blogger. I've joined your feed and look forward to seeking more of your magnificent post. Also, I've shared your website in my social networks!
You can compare display performances with and without bumblebee :
glxgears optirun glxgears
Note: when running just glxgears, if you see this message:
Running synchronized to the vertical refresh. The framerate should be approximately the same as the monitor refresh rate.
The FPS value will always be close to 60. Instead you should do:
vblank_mode=0 glxgears
Configure it
On versions prior to 2.3, you had to run bumblebee-configuration to configure Bumblebee. Newer versions automatically detect the right version for you.
If you've installed Bumblebee through your package manager, remove it using your package manager.
The flip side of this is that all of the above is GREAT prtcaice for search engine optimization (SEO). With SEO, the job is essentially the same: you need to convince Google et al that you're relevant to a search query. With SEO, however, the thing you need to impress is a piece of software (a ?spider' that crawls your site) rather than a human being. The good news is that they tend to read a web page in much the same way as we do. They'll get to know you through your language and how you use it. So, to encourage Google to categorise you properly, you need to deploy keywords in strategic parts of your pages headers, subheads, links, bold text, footers, etc. There are variations on this theme that will help, but that's pretty much it in a nutshell. (Although if you're interested in the science, then we recommend you read our paper on SEO.)
Reporting bugs
Run bumblebee-bugreport and follow the instructions, bugs or feature requests can be reported at http://Bumblebee-Project.org/issues.
I know how 1 am goes! My kids have bgeged me to open the lab tomorrow (Saturday) and it plans to be a long one! But what a dream for a teacher. Thank you again for such a great program. It is an honor just to be nominated.

Preview how our facilitation methodology works in our live, FREE webinars. You will receive a wealth of facilitation tips and discover how facilitation skills will transform your organization.
A facilitated session is a highly-structured meeting in which the meeting leader (the facilitator) guides the participants through a series of pre-defined steps to arrive at a result that is created, understood and accepted by all participants.
Every facilitated session has a specific purpose or result to be achieved. For example, the purpose of a particular facilitated meeting might be to create a strategic plan for the organization, or improve the effectiveness of a specific process, or define a solution to a difficult problem.
To create the result, the participants are involved in a series of pre-defined steps. In the case of creating a strategic plan, the facilitated session might include the following steps:
Your time — and the time of each of your participants — is too important to waste on meetings
that do not accomplish objectives or fail to deliver results.
Your people conduct meetings every single day – often without the skills or methodology to achieve a meaningful outcome. The result? Countless hours are wasted in unproductive time, your employees feel unengaged and unwilling to collaborate, clients leave your meetings without confidence or buy-in, and your critical plans miss their mark. In today's demanding workplace, these results will take you nowhere. The bottom line – the inability of your people to drive results through effective facilitation skills hurts your bottom line.
Training in facilitation will enhance your organization's capabilities with a proven methodology that impacts all areas of your business – from how you meet to how you strategize to how you execute. You will avoid losing precious time on:
Unproductive, unfocused, unengaging meetings
Tedious sessions that do not achieve desired results

Contact us now or call us at 1-800-824-2850.
The role of the facilitator is to guide the participants through a series of steps that result in them creating their solution. The facilitator does not dictate the solution but, instead, uses a focused process accompanied with engagement strategies to optimize group dynamics and help the group maximize its results. Master facilitators achieve a final result that is created, understood and accepted by all participants.
The facilitator must know the steps of the process from beginning to end, and must carefully guide the participants through each phase.
From the rousing opening statement to the closing words of cheer, the facilitator must ignite a fire within the group and keep it well lit. The facilitator must establish momentum and keep the pace.
Where other people see differences, the facilitator must find and use similarities to build bridges to consensus.
Throughout the session, the facilitator must watch carefully for potential signs of strain, weariness, aggravation and disempowerment — and respond in advance to avoid dysfunctional behavior.
At every opportunity, the facilitator should praise the effort put forth, the progress made, and the results achieved. Praise well, praise often, praise specifically.
While it is almost always better to avoid a direct confrontation between participants, should one occur, the facilitator must quickly step in, re-establish order and direct the group toward a constructive resolution.
The facilitator is ultimately responsible for keeping the session on track; this means tactfully cutting short irrelevant discussions, preventing detours and maintaining a consistent level of detail throughout the session.
At every opportunity, the facilitator must make a conscious effort to hear and understand the content, intent, meaning and feeling of what is said.

Magnetometers measure the magnetization and magnetic properties of material. We offer different commercial measurement equipment based on a variety of techniques like SQUID sensor based magnetometer (superconducting quantum interference devices), vibrating sample magnetometers (VSM), torque magnetometers, the magneto-optical Kerr effect, ferromagnetic resonance spectroscopy (FMR) and magnetic hyperthermia instruments. In principle can the sample have any type of magnetic ordering, like diamagnetic, paramagnetic, ferromagnetic, antiferromagnetic, ferrimagnetic, spin glases, etc. A wide range of sample states are suitable e.g. thin films, nanoparticles, liquids, bulk solid.
The MPMS3 (formerly MPMS SQUID VSM) is providing users with the sensitivity of a SQUID (Superconducting Quantum Interference Device) and the choice of multiple measurement modes.
The NanoMOKE3 offers high performance laser magnetometry and video-rate Kerr microscopy in a single machine. It is sensitive to the longitudinal, transverse and polar magneto optical Kerr effects and is ideally suited to measuring the magnetic properties of thin magnetic films and magnetic nanostructures.
AC susceptometry measurement provides information on how fast magnetization is building up in a material. For example, magnetic nanoparticles suspended in a liquid subjected to an alternating magnetic field can show Néel and Brownian relaxation. In case of larger poly-domain material particles, domain-wall motion can be studied. The sum of these effects influences the frequency dependent AC susceptibility of the sample.
The Vibrating Sample Magnetometers (VSM) of the EZ series are completing LOT-Quantum Design's broad product range of magnetic characterization systems. The magnetic field is provided by an electromagnet with variable gap. The EZ-VSMs are easy to use and offers a high sensitivity.
We offer a magnetic field platform based on the proven hardware of VSM magnetometers from Microsense. Its core is a 4" or 7" electromagnet with further optional components like power supply, field control module with Gaussmeter, 19" rack and more.
Our field platform has been designed for applications which require magnetic fields of 3 T or more. The electromagnet can be equipped with optimized pole faces and offers optical and/or mechanical access to the field area. Application examples are Hall or Van der Pauw measurements, magneto-optical studies, FMR, ESR or customized magnetometry set-ups.
The PhaseFMR from NanOsc measures the ferromagnetic resonance of a magnetic thin film sample and derives its fundamental properties from these measurements. The instrument offers an affordable, plug-and-play, and easy to use solution for magnetodynamic measurements and the ability to investigate novel phenomena such as spin pumping, the spin Hall effect, and the inverse spin Hall effect (ISHE). It comes ready with all microwave and detection hardware, as well as measurement and analysis software. The only thing needed is a computer, a magnet, and the power supply for the magnet, which can be delivered by us upon request.

How do you like our new look? Our new mobile-friendly version of WarmlyYours.com went live at the end of November. We've changed how the site looks and functions, as well as adding some new features, to improve your online experience.
Going Mobile
This updated format is fully scalable and designed to optimize the user experience on multiple platforms.
"With the drastic increase in our user base adopting mobile as their primary Internet browser, we felt it was necessary to update the site using a technology platform capable of supporting those users," said Christian Billen, Director of IT at WarmlyYours.
Faster and more responsive, the new site automatically adapts to different screen sizes from mobile phones and tablets to desktops. "Giving our consumers easier access to all of our products no matter what platform they're on is important, and that's been achieved with the new site," said Lauri Galdine, Web Designer, one of the project team leaders, along with David Whitby, Senior Software Developer, for the site redesign.
A Better Look
With modern, sans-serif fonts and bigger graphics, the new WarmlyYours.com site has a fresher, brighter look, as well as improved functionality. The navigation has been redesigned, making it easier for users to quickly access the products they need, particularly on a mobile platform.
"Overall, the images are much larger and clearer when viewed on a large screen/desktop format. The redesign of the homepage is a big improvement over the previous version. Information is more structured, clear and concise, and the new homepage slider functions very well on both large and small scale formats due to the responsive layout," said Galdine.
New Features
As part of the redesign process, which took just over three months to complete, we evaluated the old site page by page, looking for ways to enhance your experience on WarmlyYours.com. In addition to improving the performance and appearance of the site, we have added new features to better meet your needs. Trade professionals will appreciate new features specifically designed to optimize their experience, including support for multiple logins on the same account.
Starting in mid-December, customers will have more payment options with the addition of PayPal and Bill Me Later. Adding PayPal gives our customers increased freedom to choose the payment option that works best for them. Bill Me Later enables customers to spread out their payments over time. Plus, Bill Me Later customers can take advantage of additional financing programs, such as six-month special financing for purchases over $99.
Christian Billen is excited to bring these new options to WarmlyYours customers: "For us, the benefits are adding a known, trusted method of payment for customers who are already using PayPal and offering the Bill Me Later financing to ease the cost of some projects."
But Wait, There's More…
Visitors to WarmlyYours.com can expect more improvements to the site in the near future, including the addition of new products and enhanced features designed to support dealers and contractors. Billen said that a fully revamped and integrated forum for trade pros and improved online tools, such as the heat-loss calculator, can be expected by the end of the first quarter 2014, and enhancements to the WarmlyYours University online training module will follow soon after.

New York, March 30, 2011--Reuters said today it was urgently seeking the safe return of two of its veteran journalists in Syria, one of whom was said to be in state custody while the other was reported missing. In Libya, meanwhile, a Reuters correspondent was expelled today without explanation.
Citing diplomatic sources, Reuters said correspondent Suleiman al-Khalidi, a Jordanian national, had been detained in Damascus on Tuesday. The Jordanian Foreign Minister said in a Twitter post that he was monitoring al-Khalidi's case closely.
Reuters also said Damascus-based photographer Khaled al-Hariri, a Syrian national, has not been heard from since Monday. The news agency said al-Hariri was last seen at the agency's Damascus bureau on Monday morning.
Both journalists had been covering political unrest in Syria. "Thomson Reuters is deeply concerned about the whereabouts of our colleagues Khaled al-Hariri and Suleiman al-Khalidi," Reuters Editor-in-Chief Stephen Adler said. "We call upon the Syrian authorities to help us urgently in ensuring their safe and timely release."
Syrian authorities have detained several local journalists and press freedom advocates in recent days, although some have since been released. Reuters journalists were among those targeted. On Monday, authorities expelled Reuters producer Ayat Basma and cameraman Ezzat Baltaji after holding them incommunicado for two days. On Friday, Syrian authorities revoked the press credentials of another Reuters senior correspondent, Khaled Oweis, for purportedly "false" coverage.
In Libya, authorities today expelled Michael Georgy, a Reuters correspondent who had been covering the conflict for several weeks, the news agency said. The Libyan government provided no justification for its action. Georgy, who was among a group of foreign journalists allowed to report from Tripoli under severe government restrictions, arrived in neighboring Tunisia today. Georgy had been detained for several hours earlier this month while trying to reach Misrata, Reuters said."We are concerned for the safety of our two missing colleagues and urge Syrian authorities to do everything to ensure their safety," said Mohamed Abdel Dayem, CPJ's Middle East and North Africa program coordinator. "We are also disappointed to hear that the Libyan government has expelled Reuters' Michael Georgy, seemly without cause."

Watch Parents Watching Their Kids Acting Like Fools at an EDM Festival
[There was a video here]
Last night, the U.K.'s BBC Three aired a new show called Festivals, Sex and Suspicious Parents. It's a spin-off of the three-year-old Sun, Sex and Suspicious Parents, in which parents spied on the idiotic behavior of their kids (in their late teens and early twenties) on holiday, as the Brits put it. MTV had a show like this called Parental Control, in which parents watched their kids go on dates, but ...Sex and Suspicious Parents is better because it's British and raunchier.
It's also EDM-ier—the new series takes place at music festivals, so the premiere episode's parents got to watch their kids pissing in public, making out, mooning the camera, and saying nasty things about strangers. A snapper, more American name for this show would be: Parents, Ya Dun Goofed.

Booknotes II (January '13)
1. A Civil War Correspondent in New Orleans: The Journals and Reports of Albert Gaius Hills of the Boston Journal edited by Gary L. Dyson (McFarland, 2012).
Boston Journal reporter Hills provides readers with in depth reportage (his official work plus his personal journals) associated with the 1862 New Orleans Campaign, from the planning stage through the city's capture and occupation. Hill's naval engagement sketches are also reproduced in the book. With so little New Orleans material published, this is nice to see.
2. The Wilmington & Weldon Railroad in the Civil War by James C. Burke (McFarland, 2012).
The W&WRR was one of the most important logistical arteries in the Confederacy, increasing in importance, especially to the Army of Northern Virginia, as the war dragged on and port after port fell to Union forces. Burke's book looks good in terms of historical depth, with much in the way of supplemental data offered in the form of graphs and tables.

Mr. Hills' journals begin in November, 1861 and cover the Gulf and New Orleans Campaign until he left the area in May, 1862. He returned in December that year and remained in New Orleans until mid-1864. He became a co-editor of The Era with A.C. Hills (no relation). Details of his activities were also found in the journals of another correspondent, Thomas Butler Gunn (British). Only a few pages of Hills' journals were illegible but I was able to paraphrase these. Hills was a well respected war correspondent but his name does not appear on the monument at Gathland, and my efforts to get his named placed on it have failed to date.ReplyDelete

Mikael Lönnroth necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 140 diseños de 34 diseñadores freelance.
Maailmanpuolue (english: World party or World's party)
The world is filled with people who live in terrible conditions without money, food, shelter or a hope for a better future. Our idea is that governments and parliaments around the world should increase their focus on global human rights and development issues and look at the world as a whole instead of just the people and geography within a set of borders. As the financial and economical world turns global, the human rights issues should not be left behind.
Maailmanpuolue (world party or world's party) will be participating in the Finnish parliament elections 2011 and we need a logo that (optimally) can embody the following ideas:
- our national borders are not important, we should be interested in the wellbeing of all the people of the world
- we support immigration and foreigners living in Finland (most other parties don't)
- we want to promote ideas about love, human caring, empathy ahead of economics
Maailmanpuolue is the name of the party in Finnish and it translates to "world's party" or "world party".
People on the political left, young people, people who want to make a "protest vote", people who have immigrated to Finland (colored people, people who are "different" from the people who are born in Finland)
We're looking for something to use in our Facebook site and business cards. The logo can be graphics only + separate type suggestion for name ("Maailmanpuolue") or graphics "integrated" with name. Please feel free to be creative and funny.. but in a politically respectable way :-)

Every week night at 9pm, Carrie checks in and gives you a taste of local music with NAPTUNES.
If you're an area musician (Annapolis, Delmarva region), then get us ur stuff!
E-mail an mp3 of your song(s) along with a brief bio, picture, and schedule of any local gigs you have coming up to email@example.com
Don't have a computer? Then how are you reading this? Whatever... here's where you can mail or drop your stuff off to us:
Naptunes Archives
Middle Distance Runner (DC) - "Unbeliever"
Ok, HBO has heard of this band, and so has Harley Davidson and MTV and NME and Spin. Time to get on board before they become a huge commercial success and you miss out on being able to say, "I was totally into them before......" Not to mention they are from your neighborhood and they are truly worthy.
Frenemies (Baltimore) - "Having Sex"
Frenemies is the nom de plume of Baltimore musician/songwriter Chris Freeland, a mostly behind the scenes dude in the local Baltimore music scene and the onetime drummer for The Oxes. In 2006 Chris gathered the talents of Steve Hefter (& Friends of Friends), Dan Franz (Arbouretum), Alex Scally (now of Beach House), Jones, and Andy Cook to play songs in his recording studio but rarely outside of it. And, i assume because she's got the golden touch, Jenn Wasner of Wye lending vocals to this quirky and infectious track
Joe Harkum (Pasadena) - "Sick And Tired"
Joey Harkum lead singer for the band Pasadena......He drinks too much, he smokes too much, and the soul and sincerity gushing out of his music is too much. What's not to like?! Seriously, I can't get enough of this dude.
Sweet Leda (Annapolis) - "Can't Stand"
Led by a husband and wife couple Jaime Horrigan (probably one of, if not the best bassist in Annapolis) and Julie Cymek ( lungs of steel and a no holds barred attitude) this band has come a long way in the last couple of years. Joined by Don Boyette on drums and Omar ElDieahy on guitar they are one of the tightest bands on the local circuit and their professional attitude off stage does not prepare you for their raucous on stage antics. To put it simply, they are fun, and this new track off their latest album embodies that fun.
Typefighter (DC) - "Worth The Weight"
So, oddly enough there is this folk/country alt/indie scene going on in DC right now which includes a number of super talented bands. Typefighter just happens to be the first one i stumbled upon. It was definetly love at first listen with this band, but they have also managed to completely expand my knowledge of the local DC music scene. More on that later, right now it's all about Ryan McLaughlin, John Crum, Erik Anderson, Mary Voutsas, Kevin Moquin and Will Waikart, known as Typefighter.
Wye Oak (Baltimore) - "Dance My Pain Away"
Wye Oak covering the original don of the Baltimore club scene Rod Lee. This can be found on a compilation entitled, Baltimore Does Baltimore Vol. 1,which was in fact the brainchild of Wye Oaks, Jenn Wassner.
Joe Karr (Annapolis) - "Castle" and "Doublemint"
Joe Karr is an Annapolis enigma. From the moment i stumbled upon one of his songs i immediately wanted more but finding him proved more difficult. I immediatly began asking around but every response was basically the same, "Oh yeah he's a genius, but you'll never see him playing out" or "Yeah man Joe Karr's got more talent is his little pinky than i got in my whole body, if he did a quarter of the work i do promoting myself he'd be a star" or "He's good but he's over it, he's all about his art now." So that was it!? I had missed the Joe Karr boat, never would i get more music, never would i see him perform live, never would i have the chance to hear the man Dj Dan refers to on his local music blog as the dark prince of Annapolis. I began listening to Doublemint on repeat and fell into a deep depression. Fast forward a couple months, i've finally recovered enough to go to a friends one early summer night for beers and good company. When i arrived it was nearly dark and we were hanging outside. One guy was sitting down, absent mindedly picking a guitar. My friend introduced him as Joe. At first i was unfazed, then it hit me and then without thinking i said, "You're not Joe Karr are you?!" And yes it was!!! Now, he'll have you believe that he's just your average Joe, and he's humble enough to pull it off, but if you're like me you'll continue to thank your lucky stars that his best friend is a producer who's studio he stumbles into every so often.
Carlo Biondi (Annapolis) - "Living Room"
Carlo Biondi, out of Annapolis, who will forever hold the title of first artist played on Naptunes. To be honest i don't know too much about him except he was born in 1980, is interested in women and his political views include anarchy. Yeah, i read his facebook profile. I never met him, was just handed the cd, and am still waiting on my invite to the now infamous Living Room

International Cooperation Minister Bev Oda is now reimbursing taxpayers for the car and driver she hired during a trip abroad after saying earlier in the week that she had paid back all of the "inappropriate costs."
Her office did not confirm the exact amount that Oda is paying back for the car rental in London, England, last summer, but CBC has confirmed that it is known to be in the neighbourhood of $3,000.
One of the documents obtained through access to information legislation that revealed expenses for Oda's travel last June show the bill for the car rental was $2,850.
Oda's office said Thursday that she has repaid for the car service and "all incremental costs" that should never have been charged to taxpayers but did not specify what those costs include.
Oda offered an apology Tuesday for billing taxpayers for staying at London's swanky Savoy hotel instead of the five-star hotel she was originally supposed to stay at, where the conference she was attending was being held. Staying at the Savoy cost about $665 per night, more than double the cost of staying at the Grange St. Paul's hotel.
Oda also billed taxpayers for hiring a luxury car and driver, at a cost of about $1,000 per day, to transport her the two kilometres from the Savoy to the conference.
When the story broke on Monday Oda said she had nothing to be embarrassed about and that all Treasury Board guidelines were followed when she filed the expenses for last June's three-day stay in London. On Tuesday, however, she said the costs were unacceptable and never should have been charged to taxpayers.
She repaid taxpayers for the difference in cost between the two hotels, the cancellation fee that was incurred, and an orange juice that cost $16. In total, she repaid $1,353.81.
But opposition MPs called on Oda to also repay the amount for the car, since it would not have been necessary if she stayed at the original hotel where the conference was taking place. They argued the car was a cost associated with switching hotels, but Conservative House leader Peter Van Loan indicated Wednesday that no further payments would be coming from Oda.
"The minister has repaid the inappropriate costs. I think that is what the public would expect, that is what the opposition would expect, and I do not think she would be asked to repay costs that were appropriate," he said during question period.
Opposition MPs kept up their questioning on Thursday and interim Liberal leader Bob Rae asked Oda when she decided to also pay taxpayers back for the car service.
Van Loan took the question instead but didn't answer it. He said the government expects ministers to conduct government business at reasonable costs and that's why Oda has repaid the inappropriate expenses. He then brought up the sponsorship scandal and said Liberals should be paying taxpayers back for money still owed to them.

WASHINGTON, May 20 (UPI) -- A woman may seek attorney's fees from the U.S. government despite a ruling that her suit seeking compensation was filed late, the Supreme Court ruled Monday.
The Supreme Court, in an opinion written by Justice Sonia Sotomayor, ruled Melissa Cloer could seek attorney's fees under the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986 even though her original lawsuit was dismissed because it was filed after the statute of limitations expired.
In her lawsuit seeking compensation under the act, Cloer claimed soon after receiving her third Hepatitis-B vaccine she began experiencing symptoms that later were diagnosed as multiple sclerosis. The court ruled the 36-month window began when she had her first MS symptoms in 1997; she filed a compensation claim in 2005.
Cloer then filed to collect costs and attorney's fees, but the government argued she shouldn't get anything because of the time limit.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit disagreed, saying she was entitled to recover the fees.
"The government's argument that the 36-month [limitation] period is a statutory prerequisite for filing lacks textual support," the opinion said.
In affirming the appeals court decision, Sotomayor wrote, "We hold that an NCVIA petition found to be untimely may qualify for an award of attorney's fees if it is filed in good faith and there is a reasonable basis for its claim."
Joining in the entire opinion were Chief Justice John Roberts, and Justices Anthony Kennedy, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Stephen Breyer, Samuel Alito and Elena Kagan. Justices Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas joined in all but one section.

OC3D Best Of 2011 Awards
Introduction and CPU
Published: 30th December 2011 | Source: OC3D | Price: |
We review a lot of products during a year here at OC3D, some of them are great, some okay and some less so.
However there are always those bits of hardware that stick in the mind, the ones that really blew our socks off. The ones that, if we were building a rig, we'd be happy to buy. This led to some discussion about which items from each section we'd pick. Not only was this a perfect excuse to pop to the pub and have a heated debate, but we enjoyed it so much we thought we'd share the final list we arrived at.
So without further ado, bring on the fanfare and settle in with the last of your festive nibbles, as we present the Overclock3D Best of 2011. Please remember for a product to be considered for this it had to be RELEASED in 2011 not just available to buy. Please take a look at the following pages for all of the awarded products but TTL has been on the coffee again and made us all a monster video about the awards too!
Intel Core i7-2600K
Starting with the first decision anyone has to make when building a rig, which socket, and therefore which processor, will be the heart of your system? For us there is only one winner, the Intel Core i7-2600K. Although the Core i7-3960X was ridiculously fast, it is also ridiculously expensive, whereas the 2600K provides all the performance you could ever desire at a very reasonable price. Hyperthreading, great overclocking performance. It's the Daddy.
