Lauren Alaina Returns to 'American Idol' Stage With 'Georgia Peaches'
Lauren Alaina came thisclose to winning 'American Idol' last season, but she didn't need to the official title to launch a legitimate, more-than-respectable country career. She's doing just fine as the runner-up, but she still returned to the show's stage tonight (March 8, 2012) for a guest spot, performing her rowdy, rocking single 'Georgia Peaches.' My, how far she's come in a year.
Dressed in a hot pink, flowy top and black leggings, Alaina looked so grown up. Her hair was more of a platinum blonde shade and she reminded us of her own "Idol" Carrie Underwood with her command of the stage and her stylish look. She's developed as a performer, thanks to a whole year's worth of experience.
While singing, Alaina engaged the judge's panel, giving Randy Jackson a shout out while performing inches from their table. She also engaged the Top 13, many of whom were probably too nervous about their own fate to be fully paying attention to and enjoying her performance. Alaina sat amongst the boys while singing her ode to being a country gal, too.
Sadly, since the episode was live, host Ryan Seacrest didn't get a chance to shoot the breeze with Alaina post-performance. But it's not like we don't know what's going on with her since her career is on fire.
Let's hope that Season 11 wannabe Skylar Laine was absorbing every note that Alaina sang and every move that she made. These two are cut from the same cloth, and Laine could follow the same career path, if she plays her 'Idol' cards right.

Picasso Sculpture Postcard--Build Your Own Chicago
Pablo Picasso never visited Chicago, but thanks to the efforts of architect William Hartmann, he donated this sculpture as a "gift to the people of Chicago". Unveiled in 1967 to initial local skepticism, this unique modernist centerpiece of Daley Plaza has become a recognizable and friendly symbol of the city to tourists from around the world. This card includes all pieces and instructions necessary to make a complete paper model at 1:200 scale, approx. 2.75" tall. All the cards in the Build Your Own Chicago series are mailable postcards, with space on the reverse for a stamp and address and a message. Each card also includes a short but informative description of the landmark the model represents. Instructions are included in the form of multi-lingual isometric diagrams. There is also a Build Your Own New York series.

After the power failed at a New England health care facility, a power quality investigation revealed an unlikely culprit.
At about 4:00 one afternoon, I received a call from an anxious electrical contractor at a job site. One of his electricians had caused a power outage at a large health care facility while implementing power quality improvements I had designed. The electrician was in the process of replacing an undersized grounding electrode conductor at the secondary side of a 480V - 208V/120 delta-wye, 75kVA transformer when the building's 2000A, 480/277V, 3-phase, main circuit breaker (CB) tripped. He also caused 225A fuses to blow on the busway riser at the fourth floor. He restored power to most of the building (by resetting the main breaker) before the contractor called me but was reluctant to replace the fuses because he couldn't identify the reason they had blown.
I arrived at the site and went to the fourth-floor electric room, where I met the electrician. His explanation of the sequence of events is as follows:
He replaced an undersized lug on the XO of the transformer, connected a new grounding electrode conductor to this lug, and pulled the conductor through the existing conduit to the vicinity of a ground bus in the corner of the room near the ceiling. The 600V-rated cable was not skinned back at the unconnected end.
He held the cable near the ground bus to measure how much to cut off when he heard a loud noise and the lights went out.
When he went downstairs to get a flashlight, he discovered power to the whole building was out.
He didn't know what he had done wrong, but he assumed it was related to the new ground cable. Returning to the fourth floor, he started to remove the cable at the new lug on the XO of the transformer. As he did so, the ground cable came in contact with one of the adjacent phase lugs, which caused a spark.
He tested the three 225A fuses and found two of them blown.
First, I tried to find the cause of the outage, which would lead us to the likely damage. I examined the bus duct for openings the cable could have entered, but I didn't find any uncovered openings or arc marks. Based on the description of events, I didn't think the cable was long enough to enter the transformer because the electrician held it near the ceiling at the corner of the room.
To help understand the event, I sketched a simplified one-line diagram of the power distribution system. Next, I made the following list of questions:
Why didn't the 125A breaker protecting the transformer open?
Why didn't the 225A fuses in the bus duct switch open before the 2000A main tripped?
Why didn't the 800A breaker in the main switchboard trip before the 2000A main?
What started the problem?
If power to the whole building was off, how did the electrician create a spark when he was removing the ground cable?
I first examined the 125A CB, and found that its adjustable magnetic trip was set at its highest level (1250A). This explained why it did not react quickly.
Next, I inspected the 2000A main CB. Because the service is rated at 480/277V, the main CB has ground fault protection. However, it had been left at the lowest factory setting. This explained why the main CB tripped before the smaller overcurrent devices.
At this point, we acquired better portable lighting so we could more closely examine the equipment on the fourth floor, where the electrician was working. We noticed the H1 and H2 lugs were pitted, and there was a small amount of carbon dust on the mounting bracket adjacent to these two lugs. Originally, I dismissed the significance of the spark, believing it came from the release of a small amount of stored energy in the coils of the transformer. However, the discovery of pitting indicated this transformer was at least partially energized when the arcing occurred. Further examination also revealed pitting on the ends of the strands at the unconnected end of the new grounding electrode conductor.
Based on these discoveries, I formed my theory of what had occurred: The electrician was not holding the ground cable near the corner of the room when the lights went out. He must have lowered the cable, thereby allowing the loose end to enter the front of the transformer and touch H2. This triggered two events:
A short circuit that caused one of the 225A fuses to blow.
A ground fault that tripped the 2000A main circuit breaker.
When the electrician attempted to remove the ground wire, he didn't realize the facilities generator had started, which had re-energized H1 and H3. The spark he described was the short circuit that blew the second fuse.
Lessons to learn.
When an electrical design is in its preparation stage, perform a coordination study to make sure the overcurrent device closest to the fault will trip first. Then, when the equipment is installed, make sure all trip settings are set to the design requirements. This type of work should be done on a de-energized power system. Although the site is a health care facility, it operates on an outpatient basis, and work could have been done at night. In cases where it is necessary to work on a "hot" system, you should follow these basic safety precautions:
Have another qualified person present for emergencies.
Wear goggles and insulated gloves.
When appropriate, use insulating blankets on exposed bus bars and wear a fire-resistant jacket and face shield.
Carry a flashlight for possible emergencies.
Tape the ends of conductors you're installing.
When the lights go out don't assume a total power failure. Some of the power wiring may still be energized, so you should test each phase conductor to be sure.
This case proves a person's memory is not always reliable when recounting a traumatic event, so approach a power quality problem by establishing the facts of the case with your own investigation. Not only will you be assured of gathering the correct information, but you could uncover previously hidden evidence that might lead to the solution.

Am I a bad seahawks fan for not knowing this existed?
"The Miami Seahawks were a professional American football team based in Miami, Florida. They played in the All-America Football Conference for one season, 1946, before folding. They are notable as the first major league sports franchise in Miami and the state of Florida's first professional football team."
They had one Season and went 3-11.
Interestingly, I used that "what if sports" thing to pit the 1946 Miami Seahawks vs The 2012 Seattle Seahawks (at Miami) against each other.
We won 43-0.

Deep Purple to Reissue 'Slaves and Masters'
Last month, we told you that Deep Purple will be reissuing 10 albums from their catalog throughout 2013. The first of which, 'Live in Paris 1975,' is due to hit stores on Jan. 29. The second, 'Slaves and Masters,' will be released a week later, on Feb. 5.
Released in 1990, 'Slaves and Masters' features the Mark V lineup, where guitarist Ritchie Blackmore rejoined the band and brought in Joe Lynn Turner, who had sang with Blackmore in Rainbow from 1980-84, to replace Ian Gillan. 'Slaves and Masters' was Turner's only album with Deep Purple. Gillan would return in late-1992, making it the second reunion of their most famous lineup, the Mark II.
The reissue of 'Slaves and Masters' includes two bonus tracks, the radio edit of the single, 'Love Conquers All' and its B-side, 'Slow Down Sister.' The album only reached No. 87, the lowest chart position in the U.S. for a Deep Purple album since 1970, but hit No. 5 in Switzerland, where it went gold.
Meanwhile, you can now hear samples of 'Live in Paris 1975' over at Amazon U.K. The concert was the final show of the Mark III lineup. Blackmore had already formed Rainbow and would be replaced by Tommy Bolin.
Deep Purple will release a new album on April 30, 2013.

Predjudice and bias in "Science"
Posted 03 February 2011 - 06:42 AM
Posted 08 February 2011 - 12:12 AM
Generically, a cheerleader is an individual who represents a sports team, and serves to promote a particular image of that team. That image may, or may not, have any factual relationship to the realities of that team.
Furthermore, the cheerleader serves to build a support base for that team. The larger the support base, the less relevant the actual performance of the team becomes; it is not unusual for a team to end up with a huge support base, despite dismal performance.
The actual tools employed by a cheerleader are simple: the endless repetition of a predetermined script, manipulation of the emotional insecurities of the support base, and the endless chanting of mantras.
Neither the script or the mantras need have any relationship to reality; the image and emotional appeal is important, not the team performance.
Similarly, the cheerleader does not need any particular knowledge of the team, the sport, or the realities associated with either its performance or its composition. All that is required is that the cheerleader memorize the rituals, and perform them on demand.
In the more abstract sense, a cheerleader can represent an idea or point of view; ie: an idea or theory can be substituted for a team.
For example, we see a regular parade of cheerleaders perpetuating the myth that science has particular properties and characteristics; for example: the myths that science is the search for truth; and scientists are objective, unbiased observers of nature.
In reality, these myths are patent nonsense; as has been demonstrated repeatedly throughout history.
Despite this, these myths are perpetuated by the cheerleaders for science as a substitute for argument. But more importantly, the ritual perpetuation of these myths establishes an intellectual atmosphere in which dogmas arise in science; and once arisen, are very difficult to challenge.
This generality applies to the specifics, as manifest by the theories of science. Every theory has its support base; and every theory has its cheerleaders. Many theories are valid and correct; but some are nonsense, and serve only to provide a paycheck for their proponents. Their respective teams of cheerleaders play an important part in ensuring both their perpetuation and their credibility.
In the context of this thread, the Great Global Warming Fraud has been used here as an illustration of the fallacy of some of these myths of science; and to illustrate the ease by which a false idea can be promoted by cheerleaders to become firmly entrenched dogma.
If this were just an isolated event, then the damage could be rectified. However, in recent times this has been just one of many very visible manifestations in the general decline in science in our society.
This particular fraud seems to be the tipping point for science; as knowledge of this fraud has become more widely known amongst the general public, a general cynicism and contempt for science in general has developed.
This is illustrated by the jokes denigrating both science and scientists that are now in wide circulation; these kind of jokes were unheard of a year ago.
All of this has importance for Spookology. The opposition to the serious investigation of Spookology and related phenomena is the result of dogmatism within science; and this dogma is perpetuated by cheerleaders.
The fallout from this is that while this dogma is perpetuated, the probability of serious investigation of Spookology and related phenomena is diminished.
Therefore, in the unlikely event a cheerleader presents an informed argument, it should be addressed appropriately. However, in the even more likely event that they simply perform their prescribed rituals and chant their mantras, they should be viewed as nothing more than a bit of light entertainment.
Posted 08 February 2011 - 08:34 AM
In a general philosophical sense, you are absolutely correct. However, in the context of this thread, it would seem that you do not understand either the use of the term or the significance of cheerleading.
No, I got your meaning pretty much exactly.
I do not see how anything you said in your post makes it meaningful to indulge in personal attacks.
You have posted your detailed and well-thought out opinion of science, but until some facts are presented it is only that, an opinion. There is really nothing in there to support your opinion. I happen to dissagree with you on some points, while disagreeing with you on others. If you want to convince me on the points where I disagree, do it with facts. More name-calling will not get the job done, sorry.
As an example, you speak of science as though it is one huge single-minded institution. I find that to be incorrect. I find referring to "science" in such a way to be an over-simplification at best, a complete strawman at worst. I see science as a method, not an entity. Its uses are as varied as the people who pursue it. It is a tool, like a knife. Sometimes knives are misused, sometimes not. Can you provide any evidence that supports your idea tht science is a single entity? In other words, can you justify tarring all individual scientists and the scientific method with a single broad brush?
Regards, Canis

I can agree that there are scientists on both sides of any issue that are biased and will reach desired conclusions. However that does not negate the true scientific method which will include ALL the facts, not just those which support one's agenda. Those who fail to consider all options are not true scientists, in fact they are no better than any other of the cheerleaders mentioned earlier.
As to how to debate these cheerleaders, it is not by name calling, rather where certain facts have been ignored these facts should be pointed out to them. When these facts are revealed it will be up to the pther party to provide a reason why they chose to disregard them. Of course should such a reason be proven then it may indeed fall to the one claiming the omission to admit their error. But failure to prove a reason for disregard of certain evidence will of couse be the proof required to call into question the original claims and require that the evidence be included in any final conclusion.

Posted 09 February 2011 - 07:44 PM
Human behavior is characterized by its predisposition to follow identifiable patterns. Some patterns are so common that in Behavioral Science they are referred to by name.
Similarly, in the arena of debate and argument, there are numerous recognized patterns of argument, and their corresponding responses. These are referred to as the strategies and tactics of debate. The speed at which a debater recognizes their opponents debating pattern, and implements the corresponding counter pattern, is a measure of their skill as a debater.
Those that fail to recognize their opponents patterns, and fail to apply the appropriate counter, invariably lose the debate.
So in any debate, the first step is to identify the tactical pattern; the second is to implement the counter tactic.
In the context of our discussions around Spookology, the proponents for science invariably present well established, identifiable and predictable patterns of argument. Hence my identification of these patterns as cheerleading.
Should you wish to learn more about this, I suggest you refer to any of the standard text books on debating. Any one of the texts should have at least one chapter on the pattern I have referred to as cheerleading.
2. You are correct that I have expressed my opinion on the current declining state of science. However, my opinion is derived from both personal observation, and the widely expressed opinions of many other scientists and observers.
Should you wish to learn more about this, you could start with the speech presented by Richard Feynman, who is generally regarded as one of the greatest scientists of the 20th century. It is reproduced here:
You can read more about the continuing malaise in science here; particularly, you should read the embedded links in that article:
3. You seem to be attributing to me some kind of broad brush confusion regarding the scientific method and science. I do not see how any of my comments could be seen to lead to that interpretation.
The scientific method is exactly that; it is an idealized prescription for a method for the pursuit of knowledge. Science is the encapsulation of empirical data and the subsequent interpretation of that data.
Clearly, in real life there is a broad spectrum in the way the method is applied; similarly, there is a wide range in the way empirical data is processed, interpreted and presented. Were this not the case, we would not be having this discussion.
The whole Global Warming Fraud is an illustration of this fact. The fraud has been perpetrated by one group of scientists who manipulated and misrepresented empirical data; their fraud was then exposed by other scientists who reviewed the same data and exposed the fraudulent manipulations.
However, a very significance point in this scandal is the fact that the issue has become politicised, and the fraudsters are being held as heroes. In contrast, their adversaries are being held as villains.
This politicization of science is completely contrary to the idealized view of science; but is unfortunately all too commonplace today.

Putatively fighting for equality is always an easy way to obtain cheap grace.
Additionally, though, I suspect it is because the same-sex marriage crusade feels purer than other potential civil rights crusades do. A black guy who hasn't accomplished much of anything has been twice elected to the presidency in large part because he is black. Affirmative action and racial quotas give non-whites all kinds of special privileges that result in, ceteris paribus, NAMs being favored over whites of equal ability. Anyone who has spent any time in the corporate world knows that rather than there being a glass ceiling keeping minorities and women down, managers fall all over themselves in an effort to lift up and promote people who will make the workforce more demographically diverse. The contemporary struggle for gay rights, in contrast, is perceived as truly being about egalitarianism.
Perhaps at some point in the future SWPLs will begin to have some misgivings about having possibly pushed the gay rights ratchet too far as well, but we haven't reached that point yet. The pickings are slimmer than they were half a century ago when it comes to finding victim groups to shed a tear for, but the tree isn't bare yet.

Despite a good start, Cole Hamels is once again denied win #10 as the Phils lose to the A's, 4-1.
Despite pitching eight strong innings, Cole Hamels is once more denied a chance at getting win no. 10, as the Phils lose to the A's, 4-1.
The Phils took the lead in the second as, with two men on, and with two men out, Carlos Ruiz hits an RBI single, knocking in Ryan Howard, who had earlier walked, then moved up to second on Shane Victorino's walk, giving the Phils a 1-0 lead. But, the A's would do all of the scoring after that. The A's tied it up at one-all in the third as, with one man out, Adam Rosales hits a solo home run, his second home run of the season. The A's took the lead in the fourth as, with runners on the corners, and with two men out, Scott Sizemore hits an RBI single, knocking in Coco Crisp, who had earlier walked, moved up to second base on a Hideki Matsui's single, then went to third on Conor Jackson's fly out to left, after Raul Ibanez made a weak throw getting the ball back into the infield, giving the A's a 2-1 lead. The A's added to their lead in the ninth as, with two men on, and with one man out, Mark Ellis hits an RBI single, scoring Cliff Pennington, who had earlier walked, then stopped at third on Jemile Weeks' double, giving the A's a 3-1 lead, while Weeks, who had just doubled, stopped at third base. The A's then took a 4-1 lead as the next batter, Crisp hits a sacrifice fly, scoring Weeks. That would be the final score as Andrew Bailey recorded his fifth save of the year as he pitched a scoreless ninth.
Cole Hamels (9-4, 2.49) took the lost as he pitched eight innings, giving up two runs on eight hits and two walks,while striking out five. Michael Stutes pitched an inning, giving up two runs on two hits and a walk, while striking out two. Trevor Cahill (8-5, 3.09) got the win as he pitched seven and two-thirds innings, giving up a run on three hits and three walks, as he struck out six. Andrew Bailey recorded his fifth save of the season as he pitched an inning and a third, giving up a hit and a walk.
The Phils had only four hits in the ballgame, a single by Chase Utley, a double by Shane Victorino, an RBI single by Carlos Ruiz and a pinch hit double by pinch hitter Ross Gload, as A's pitching kept the Phils' bats silent for most of the game.
The Phils (48-30, 1st NL East) will conclude their interleague play series with the A's (35-43, 4th AL West), with a game that is in progress.

If you want to do a "standard" wedding, it can be fairly involved. Make a guest list, choose your wedding cards, send them out; choose your bridal party line-up, choose the clothing (yours and the bridal party's, unless you choose to freestyle it - the wedding dress can take considerable time and expense, but not all good wedding dresses need to be in the thousand-dollar range), choose a make-up artist, choose the rings; choose the venue for the wedding and make reservations; choose catering options (venue may provide them), choose your wedding cake, choose a DJ/music/entertainment if you want; choose a recording service (videographers, photographers) if you want; get a first dance routine and practice your butt off (many weddings seem to be cutting this part out; there are services that will make a routine and train you for money, but my wife and I did it cheaply, renting multiple "wedding dance" DVDs, chaining combinations of our own, and self-teaching - it was a big success).
I'm probably leaving some things out. Then the day comes, it's over in what feels like a flash, and you get to write thank-you cards to everyone who attended, making particular note of who gave what gift!
Going through the full ordeal seems like a really daunting, almost overwhelming task. My advice is to start planning early, and take family assistance if it's offered. If I remember right, my wife and I started planning a year or slightly more in advance, and her family did most of the heavy lifting when it came to things like getting information and contacting places.

This is a general question really, which is... Well, I can't exactly wrap my head around this logic, so girls, do enlighten me. I want to understand you, really do. For those of us who have traversed through the lanes of infinite "friendzoneness," there is one sentence a girl says which is epic in its pure "whaaaa?!" factor. "I wish I had a guy like you."
Now, okay, let's look at the criteria for a moment.
1. I'm a g..., (wait), yup I'm a guy (just triple checking).
2. I'm.... me?
So... if you want a guy like me, why not just have me?
"Oh, but I like you as a friend."
Sooooo.... you're looking for a boyfriend who is exactly like your friend. Which, if we follow this simple math, means that you're basically looking for a friend but aren't?
Yup, brain definitely imploding.

Everyone is afraid of failure, and it certainly seems that relationships fail more often than they succeed. The girl can't have her cake and eat it too (that is, date you and keep you as a friend, as you are, at the same time), so she goes with the more conservative option.
Edit: There's another part to this, actually. There's a saying that every guy who is friends with a girl just wants to sleep with her. Many people reject this notion - and rightfully so. However, if the girl you're friends with is attractive, she's probably used to being hit on. If you approached her and made friends with her, without hitting on her for a substantial amount of time, then she probably allowed herself to become comfortable with you. She likely figured that you weren't interested in her. This then goes back to my original point: if she values you as a friend, and she's content with the relationship as it is, then there's no reason for her to risk it by dating you.

It's strange, I've known my best friend for the better of ten years and had a regular place in his family circle and know everyone of them as well as my own family.
I wasn't surprised when I received an invite to his younger sister's twenty-first birthday down in the city. I was looking forward to going down and catching up with everyone because since going to the city for studies, we haven't been able to keep in touch as regularly as we used to.
And last night just felt like something straight out of an anime with the idiot protagonist (me) finally looking at a girl who he's known for so long finally as a woman (mate's sister).
Damn I was nervy as hell talking to her last night and even though I know her pretty well. I felt about two inches tall talking to her.
I'm not asking for advice I just thought I'd organize my feelings a bit more just typing them out.
Just keep thinking to myself that if I tried to get to know her better it'd be a pretty awkward conversation with my mate that's for bloody sure!
Knowing him though he'd probably enjoy the thought of being brothers in law. Haha.

I can't recall ever saying that to anyone tbh, but here's my two pence.
You're friendzone'd right?
I wish I could get a boyfriend who has your sweet personality but also is attractive to me for sex and more, together.
A guy who has been friend-zoned, typically doesn't signal any sexual desires in a woman, hence you're a 'friend', 'buddy'.
Reliable, comfy, safe but not on our radar as a potential boyfriend, our instincts have been tuned out from that kinda thing with you hence it's very, very difficult to re-wire it in a woman.
If a guy from the start has some kinda charm, attraction that keeps her intrigued, then you can build a relationship based on it and see if things naturally progress into more or not.
But to be honest, that kinda girl isn't worth your time. To say that to a guy and not bat an eyelash shows she's incredibly blind/stupid or just cruel to cut up a guy like that.
"I want someone like you, but just not you".
Don't be used and abused, find a lady who appreciates you and you her

I told this girl I liked her before, I didn't get rejected or anything she likes me as well but she's been acting like a total ass lately when we talk via text or twitter but when we meet in person she's all nice and etc. I guess she's the type of girl that likes assholes? I seem to be attracted to a lot of girls like that but I consider myself a "nice guy"
I've actually been feeling really lonely lately which is a rarity I guess cause i'm a little older ?

There could be so many reasons for this sort of behaviour, you know. Best thing you can do is to call her out on it, and get the full story.

For that reason I dont share any personal info on FB and I never really understood the purpose of twitter.
King Lycan, how old is that girl? That behaviour reminds me of teenie antics. In case she is a teenager, than it is a normal behaviour She will grow out of it eventually.
Btw, is the other girl you like equally complicated? If not, maybe you want to concentrate your attention on the second, it will be less of a rollercoaster ride.

What if I took the computer job instead of the retail job?
What if I kissed Marjorie that night on the beach instead of chickening out?
In the end, where you are today is usually because of the decisions you made earlier in life whether they were good or bad decisions. Either way, they are in the past and cannot be changed.
Also, while it might be entertaining for a while to think about what-ifs, it's best not to dwell too much on them. Even with the bad decisions I made in my life, if I didn't make them, I would never have met my wife, and there certainly would not be the daughter that I love and cherish now.

What is Family Medicine?
Family medicine is a medical discipline that offers comprehensive healthcare to patients of all ages. Healthcare providers who specialize in family medicine are primary care physicians that are trained to cater to the healthcare needs of families, including adults and children.
Of all the primary care specialties, family medicine specialists handle the most healthcare cases because the scope of family medicine is extremely large. Healthcare providers specializing in other medical disciplines often focus on one particular part of the body or one disease. For family doctors, this is far from the truth because they need to know how to diagnose and treat a wide variety of ailments, and provide healthcare for you as a whole person. They also provide preventive medical care services to help patients maintain best health over the long term.
Family physicians will also need to consider the personal lives of the patients, because the concept of the patient-physician relationship is heightened in this discipline. Many family doctors find themselves forming lasting patient-physician relationships that span over decades, and it is this special element that sets family medicine apart from other healthcare specialties.
Common Conditions Seen by Family Physicians
- Sore Throat
- Cough
- Flu
- Fever
- Asthma
- Allergies
- Ear Infection
- Urinary Tract Infection
- Diabetes
- Hypertension
- Arthritis
- Obesity

I'm not even sure where this was. It's one of those photos I wish I'd talked to my grandmother or others about when I could.
When I look at photos like this I spend as much time looking at the background as I do the people. What was going on? What were all those things in the background? Why is that stuff piled on that table?
I love these little "slice of life" photos and perhaps one day I will sit down and use this one as a writing prompt and make up my own stories about "Grandma Great."
Memoir Prompts:
What "slice of life" would show up in photos of your present life?
Write a story, real or imagined, about one of your ancestors.
Who do you need to talk to about your family and the old photographs while you still can?

Bishop Basil Blesses Residence for the Disabled
On Saturday August 18, eight Orthodox clergy, future residents and their families, and friends of the Sheltering Tree gathered in an open lot in Bellevue, Nebraska--despite the threat of rain--to pray with His Grace, Bishop Basil of The Diocese of Wichita and Mid-America, as he blessed the building site for The Sheltering Tree I, a communal residence for developmentally disabled persons.
The Sheltering Tree I is the result of much faith and prayer and hard work. This first Sheltering Tree will be a home for 10 developmentally disabled persons who will enjoy independence in their own distinct apartments, surrounding common areas for community life. Live-in managers will provide support for the residents. The two-acre site was secured with funding via a Housing and Urban Development (HUD) grant, The Topeka Federal Home Loan Bank, and many personal offerings--totaling over $2 million.
God's presence was evident at the blessing when the rainy clouds dispersed and warm rays of sunshine accompanied His Grace's arrival at the site. Such blessings are not uncommon within the story of the Sheltering Tree. The Sheltering Tree Board of Directors (the majority of whom are Orthodox clergy and laity) has been leading this mission since 2007 and though the trials have been numerous, God's graces are greater! Out of 500 regional applications, the Sheltering Tree project was one of only two recipients of HUD funding. Mr. Timothy Hemseth (a University of Nebraska at Lincoln architectural green building instructor) and the architectural firm of ASD Stanley J. How have completed the eco-friendly building design. Fund- and friend-raising will continue under the direction of Mrs. Shirley McNally, President of the Sheltering Tree board, and her dedicated directors.
More information and a virtual tour of the future Sheltering Tree 1 residence are available at the Sheltering Tree website.

This is an archived article that was published on sltrib.com in 2012, and information in the article may be outdated. It is provided only for personal research purposes and may not be reprinted.
Provo • This might sound familiar.
Through six games, Brigham Young managed to win four times despite ongoing quarterback controversies and Oregon State next on the dock.
It was the plot line from a year ago.
What is different has been the performance of BYU receiver Cody Hoffman. Last year, the junior from Crescent City, Calif., went off against his once-beloved team, catching nine balls for 162 yards and a score.
The performance was the turning point in Hoffman's season. After struggling at the start, as he finished with 943 receiving yards and 10 touchdowns.
So far, despite another round of revolving quarterbacks, Hoffman has continued to build on 2011, ahead of his pace for receptions and yards.
"Cody is so much further along as a player and a young man in our program," BYU offensive coordinator Brandon Doman said prior to Saturday's 1:30 p.m. kickoff at LaVell Edwards Stadium. "Last year, he was just finding his way. We knew he was a good player, but hadn't gone out and made all the plays he's making now."
While not blessed with blazing speed, at 6-foot-4, the slender pass-catcher runs precise routes and is tall and physical enough to outfight defensive backs for the ball.
Hoffman is also trying to downplay his role in Saturday's game against the No. 10-ranked Beavers. Hoffman grew up about four hours from Corvallis, and a large contingent of friends and family watched him shred OSU's defense.
"I try not to think about it, but I know it's there, what with high school and recruiting and everything," Hoffman said. "So it's hard to keep my mind off of it."
Last season at this time, Hoffman had caught only 258 yards worth of passes with one score. So far in 2012, he's closing in on 500 yards, including 114 in the 6-3 victory against Utah State.
"I feel like this has been a continuation [of 2011]," Hoffman said. "I just want to maintain it to finish the season strong."
Although BYU lost freshman quarterback Taysom Hill during the waning moments of the USU victory, Hoffman is confident with Riley Nelson back under center.
Hoffman and Nelson have a bond as well as chemistry. They roomed together during Hoffman's freshman season and their chat sessions off the field were invaluable.
Even with Nelson on the sidelines, Hoffman has been one of BYU's go-to guys.
"He's a sure-handed guy that makes great plays," Nelson said. "He is gaining a lot of momentum after playing well against Utah State, so yeah, I hope he can make plays. But I hope we can spread the ball around, because our offense is most successful when we can spread the ball around.
"Cody is one of the best receivers in the country, obviously. He's having a great year already."
In return, Hoffman likes the way Nelson throws the football.
"Riley kind of throws it out in front of me and lets me go get it," Hoffman said.
Hoffman may be in line for another big game. So far, Oregon State has not given much help to the corner who covers the opposition's best receiver.
As for the Cougars' inconsistent offense, Hoffman continues to remind himself to be patient.
"It's difficult, but at the same time it's good knowing other players are making plays," he said.
Twitter: @Tribmarty
Cody Hoffman file
• During BYU's 38-28 victory last season, he burned Oregon State with nine catches for 162 yards.
• Has nearly 200 more receiving yards this season than at the same time in 2011, when he finished with 943.

No. 3 UConn 77, No. 11 Penn St. 59
Penn State coach Coquese Washington hopes her team will learn
from its first trip to the regionals in eight years.
The fourth-seeded Nittany Lions were jittery from the start and
never could fully recover to challenge top-seed Connecticut in a
77-59 loss Sunday in the Kingston regional semifinals.
"I think it's a very good step for us," Washington said. "We
wanted to improve every single season and we've done that. When I
look at the game one thing I saw was that Connecticut played like a
team that has played in a Sweet 16 before. They understood how long
the game was and the patience you need to execute with."
Penn State came into the game averaging 87.5 points in the NCAA
tournament, but the Nittany Lions couldn't find any rhythm on
offense against the stingy UConn defense.
"We played too fast," Washington said. "We shot a lot of
quick shots. We didn't show enough patience on the offensive end.
When you do that against a team like Connecticut, you give up a lot
of points in transition. Once they get on a roll they're tough to
UConn got a balanced offense that featured five players in
double figures. Bria Hartley scored 20 points and Kelly Faris added
15 for the Huskies, who advanced to the regional finals for the
seventh straight season. The Huskies will face Kentucky on Tuesday
night with a berth in the Final Four on the line.
Leading 36-27 late in the first half, UConn (32-4) used a 17-2
run spanning halftime to blow the game open. Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis
started the spurt with a 3-pointer. Two free throws by Tiffany
Hayes made it 43-29 at the break. UConn then scored the first 10
points of the second half to extend the margin to 53-29. Hartley
capped the run with a lay-in.
Penn State (26-7) scored the next nine points to pull to 53-38,
but the Nittany Lions could get no closer.
Mia Nickson scored 19 points and Maggie Lucas added 15 for Penn
State. Alex Bentley, the team's second-leading scorer, had just
eight points.
UConn made Bentley and Lucas work hard for every point. The
Huskies, who lead the nation allowing just over 45 points a game,
didn't allow the pair many open looks at the basket and they
combined to shoot 7 for 31.
"It's something we take a lot of pride in," Faris said of the
defense. "It's something we work on day in and day out. Our
offense stems from that. We play with four guards and a lot of
switching and everyone has to know all the personnel. Today, it
came down to everyone talking and helping each other out. We
covered well for each other."
The Huskies got off to a quick start, scoring 14 of the first 18
points. Hartley had six during the opening spurt. UConn appeared
ready to blow the game wide open, extending the advantage to 24-10
on Hayes' layup, but Penn State scored 11 of the next 13 points to
cut its deficit to five on Nickson's free throws.
That's when Mosqueda-Lewis and Hartley took over. The pair
scored the next 11 points for UConn, with Mosqueda-Lewis' 3-pointer
beginning the key run.
This was the Huskies' 19th straight trip to the round of 16,
while the Nittany Lions advanced this far for the first time since
2004 – when they lost to Connecticut in the regional finals.
"It's something positive, it hurts right now," Bentley said.
"You never want to go home, never want to lose. I'm proud of my
teammates and the season we had. We fought very hard and put a lot
of work in."
Washington has done an incredible job rebuilding the program
since taking over in 2007. The Nittany Lions won their first Big
Ten regular-season title since 2004 this year. They also posted
their highest win total since 2004-05.
This was the second straight NCAA bid under Washington's watch
for Penn State, once a Top 25 staple before slipping during the
last few years of longtime coach Rene Portland's tenure.
Penn State was able to advance to Kingston by winning two games
at LSU, including beating the host team in the second round.
Winning on the road has been no problem for this squad, which was
7-1 away from home in Big Ten conference games this season.

Status Report
From: Jet Propulsion Laboratory
Posted: Friday, November 2, 2007
NASA's Phoenix Mars Lander, launched on Aug. 4 and headed to Mars, fired its four trajectory correction thrusters Wednesday for only the second time. The 45.9-second burn nudged the spacecraft just the right amount to put it on a course to arrive at the red planet seven months from today.
At Mars, Phoenix will face a challenging 7-minute descent through the atmosphere to land in the far north on May 25, 2008. After landing, it will use a robotic digging arm and other instruments during a three-month period to investigate whether icy soil of the Martian arctic could have ever been a favorable environment for microbial life. The solar-powered lander will also look for clues about the history of the water in the ice and will monitor weather as northern Mars' summer progresses toward fall.
The second course adjustment had been postponed a week to allow time for carefully returning the spacecraft to full operations after a cosmic- ray strike disrupted a computer memory chip Oct. 6. Experiences with previous spacecraft have shown hits by cosmic rays are a known hazard in deep space. The Phoenix spacecraft properly followed its onboard safety programming by putting itself into a precautionary standby state when the event occurred. Mission controllers then followed step-by-step procedures to understand the cause and resume regular operations. "Our engineers responded in a very careful and deliberate manner. Since this was a very well-understood anomaly, it was a good experience for the team," said Phoenix Project Manager Barry Goldstein of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif.
This week's trajectory correction maneuver, plus the flight's first one on Aug. 10, were planned in advance to adjust for a launch-day course that was intentionally designed to be slightly offset from Mars. The offset had prevented the possibility of the third stage of the launch vehicle hitting Mars. Before the Oct. 24 maneuver, the spacecraft's planned trajectory would have missed Mars by about 95,000 kilometers (59,000 miles). Now, Phoenix is on track to intercept Mars in its orbit next year.
"The first and second trajectory correct maneuvers were designed together," said JPL's Brian Portock, chief of the navigation team for Phoenix. "We gain a more efficient use of fuel by splitting the necessary adjustment into two maneuvers." The second maneuver changed the velocity of the spacecraft by about 3.6 meters per second (8.05 miles per hour), about one-fifth as much as the first maneuver. Four additional opportunities for trajectory corrections are scheduled in April and May 2008. "The remaining ones are really for fine tuning," Portock said. The landing site is a broad valley at about 68 degrees north latitude, 233 degrees east longitude.
Initial in-flight checks of all the science instruments were completed with Oct. 26 testing of the Canadian-provided weather station, which includes a laser-reflection device called a lidar. "With the activation of Canada's weather station, the testing of the precision lidar instrument and the temperature and pressure sensors, we will be receiving our first space weather report from Phoenix as it continues its voyage to Mars," said Alain Berinstain, Director of Planetary Exploration and Space Astronomy at the Canadian Space Agency. In recent weeks, flight controllers have conducted two sessions of heating the spacecraft's Thermal and Evolved-Gas Analyzer to drive off water vapor that was carried from Earth in the instrument. Results indicate that the process is successfully removing water vapor. Additional "bake-out" sessions for this instrument are planned prior to landing.
The Phoenix mission is led by Peter Smith of the University of Arizona, Tucson, with project management at JPL and development partnership at Lockheed Martin, Denver. International contributions are provided by the Canadian Space Agency; the University of Neuchatel, Switzerland; the universities of Copenhagen and Aarhus, Denmark; the Max Planck Institute, Germany; and the Finnish Meteorological Institute. JPL is a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena.

FringeNYC 1997
Click image to download Program Guide
FringeNYC 1997
August 13 – 24
Why does New York City need a Fringe Festival? This city is a fringe festival 365 days a year. Artists rush to this island like lemmings on lock-target, diving off the cliffs of a college graduation, Mayberry mindnumb and the old Greyhound one-way last-ditch gamble. We tumble and pirouette for months, sometimes years, plummeting through agent's offices, vanity productions, cattle calls at Equity, under-fives on the daily soaps, crowd scenes in major motion pictures clawing for a handhold, a gig, a moment of respect and honest work.
We few, we scrappy few, that survive the long fall land dazed and dashed on the Lower East Side. Here we write our manifestos and first masterpieces. Here we stage our visions and invent techniques we can't articulate or explain even after the fourth or fifth round. Here we star in three-hour new verse plays, sweating and shaking on a tiny stage in the back of a bar and the ten or twenty or on a good night forty folks sitting on folding chairs stare amazed that anyone would work so hard under such conditions for so little.
And we love it. It's our own private theme park: OFF-OFF WORLD, The Land that Grants Forgot. We're doing our art, we're sacrificing, we're living our lives and paying our dues. No money? That's cool. No press? No problem. No dressing room? No tech? No audience? No forum to meet each other and inspire each other and recognize each other as individual parts of one emerging cultural force? Well, hell, it's New York, we all have day jobs and if we keep at it we'll hit it big and get the hell to Hollywood or maybe take that promotion and just get out of this madness all together.
That's why this town needs a Fringe Festival.
We need a place where the artists who do all the hard work, the early work, can incite and excite each other. We need a time set aside to look at all the exploration, a time for the front-line soldiers in our endless Cultural War to report back from their patrols. This generation of artists needs to unite, the decaying infrastructure of downtown theatre needs to be revitalized, the pipeline between downtown show and midtown business needs to be swept clean and re-caulked so that new audiences have a reason to come to the theater, new artists have a chance of staying in the theater and a new energy and spirit can infuse our theater. We need to lift the level of craft, passion, risk, organization and responsibility we bring to our work. We need to work together as artists and producers to provide strong, consistent work. We need to create an environment where emerging work is fostered, nurtured and allowed to grow. We need to believe in ourselves and in our audiences. The future is here. The world is, in fact, ours. As Judith Malina wrote years ago:
"I talk to everyone and ask what can be done and everyone comes up against the same wall and draws a blank. We need a new form. There are better people than me to find it. But they are not doing the job. And the job must be done. And to those who say it can't be done I'll say bullshit and prove otherwise."
There is no map. The compass slowly spins, pointing to all directions. But if we walk together, eyes open, a step at a time, we'll find our way.

Meet Dr. Wolcott and the Wound Care Staff
Dr. Wolcott began his wound care practice over 11 years ago and has been practicing medicine for 28 years. He is passionate about healing his patients, which has resulted in his quest for the best medical advances in wound care. His personal research at the Wound Care Center's own Research and Testing Laboratories and his collaboration with numerous experts in the wound care field have earned him international recognition. His work has been published in several textbooks, as well as prominent journals like the Journal of the American Medical Association and Journal of Wound Care. Also, he is often asked to lecture across the country and in parts of Europe and the United Kingdom at various medical societies and universities. More important than his professional credentials, though, is his love for his family and his heart for his patients. He is supported by his rather large family—his wife Jenna and his six children. He has devoted his life to healing even the "nonhealable" wounds, believing that he can treat, but God will heal.
Dr. Wolcott is closely assisted by two of the best physician's assitants (PAs) in wound care, Jose Elizondo and Christy Hale.
Our clinical staff consists of:
© 1 Physician
© 1 Nurse Practioner

© 1 Physical Therapist
© 3 Licensed Vocational Nurses
© 1 Clinical Research Coordinator
© 8 Clinical Technicians

Together, the Wound Care Center medical staff has over 150 years of medical experience. Dr. Wolcott and his Physician Assistants are all certified wound specialists. They constantly strive to bridge the gap between science and wound care to continue to offer the most innovative and the most effective wound treatments. Their desire is to see wounds healed as quickly as possible, while nurturing the whole patient, not just the wound. Their heart is in healing!

What's your in-game model/animation solution?

That is true. For instance, there are many animators who feel that facial animation is much more expressively done with vertex animation. I am unaware of any commercial game engines which mix vertex animation for the face and skeletal for the body, but that doesn't mean there aren't any, and there is no reason it can't be done. Certainly, high-end packages like Maya are able to mix animation methods right out of the box, so there's a data source for that technique right there. Skeletal animation isn't the end-all be-all solution, but it sure is cool! [grin]

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--X-Factor and Britain's Got Talent (BGT) super-judge Simon Cowell surprised one of his fellow judges with a unique gift at the kickoff of the new season of Britain's Got Talent earlier this month.
Known for his impeccable ability to judge quality and commitment to always pointing to any visible or audible flaws, Cowell presented David Walliams with Nad's Nose Wax, the revolutionary system designed to solve the particularly tricky problem of removing unsightly and embarrassing nose hair!
Perhaps it was a less-than-subtle grooming-related message from Cowell to Walliams – the two routinely and playfully poke fun at one another on the show – or perhaps it was a genuine, heartfelt gesture. Either way, it can be assumed that Walliams will be breathing a little easier.
Simon Cowell isn't the only one exploring the benefits of Nad's Nose Wax, either – a recent photo-booth style video that has gone viral on YouTube shows random Australian consumers in a busy Sydney shopping centre trying out Nad's Nose Wax for the first time. That footage is posted at http://youtu.be/fCJJndT7IcY. It would seem that Simon Cowell would likely approve.
Nad's Nose Wax retails for $29.99 and is available online at www.nads.com and www.amazon.com.
Learn more about Nad's Nose Wax at Nads.com or follow Nad's on Twitter (@nads) or Facebook (Facebook.com/nads). Follow Nad's Founder and CEO Sue Ismiel on Twitter @sueismiel.

AMD and Ubisoft Collaborate to Deliver the Ultimate Far Cry 3 PC Gaming Experience
AMD Eyefinity and AMD CrossFire Technologies Enable Stunning Visuals, Hyper-Realistic Environments and Incredible Performance for AMD Radeon PC Gamers as They Dominate the Lawless Island of "Far Cry 3"
By: Marketwired .
Dec. 4, 2012 12:01 AM
SUNNYVALE, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 12/04/12 -- AMD (NYSE: AMD) today announced its collaboration with Ubisoft® to support the highly anticipated next chapter in the "Far Cry" franchise, "Far Cry 3®," launching today in North America. Developed in conjunction with the AMD Gaming Evolved program, "Far Cry 3" is fully optimized for a premium PC gaming experience, harnessing the power of AMD Radeon graphics including native support for AMD Eyefinity and AMD CrossFire technologies, enabling industry-leading multiscreen experiences and high-performance gaming. By working closely together, AMD and Ubisoft have enhanced the "Far Cry 3" experience, allowing gamers to become fully immersed in an epic struggle to survive in one of the most lawless and challenging PC gaming environments to date.
"AMD and Ubisoft have worked together to make 'Far Cry 3' a state-of-the-art gaming experience on the PC, the world's most powerful gaming platform," said Matt Skynner, corporate vice president and general manager, Graphics Business Unit, AMD. "The AMD Gaming Evolved program aims to put gamers and developers first, and we're making sure we deliver on our promise. By working with industry-leading developers like Ubisoft, we're not only helping to develop cutting-edge titles, we're also advancing the state of PC graphics for gamers."
Gamers can jumpstart their "Far Cry 3" experience -- and reap huge savings -- by immediately taking advantage of the AMD Radeon Never Settle bundle. With the purchase of an AMD Radeon HD 7770 GHz Edition, HD 7800 Series or HD 7900 Series GPU, gamers not only benefit from the award-winning performance of the AMD Radeon HD 7000 Series, they also receive a free download code for "Far Cry 3." This holiday season, AMD is making sure gamers can have it all -- the best performance and graphics experience on one of the best PC gaming titles.
"Ubisoft is committed to developing industry-leading games that offer non-stop action, gritty storylines and deeply immersive gaming experiences, and the latest addition to the highly acclaimed 'Far Cry' franchise continues that tradition," said Dan Hay, executive producer on "Far Cry 3." "Through this relationship, Ubisoft worked with AMD and its Gaming Evolved program to develop a game that takes full advantage of the outstanding next-generation technologies offered by AMD Radeon graphics, which enable an incredible PC gaming experience."
By leveraging native support for AMD Eyefinity technology, "Far Cry 3" helps enable gamers equipped with AMD Radeon graphics to immerse themselves in a gaming environment unlike any other. With AMD Eyefinity technology, a single graphics card can support up to six monitors simultaneously, empowering gamers with the ability to experience the lush, exquisite jungles of "Far Cry 3" in panoramic, ultra-high detail. Gamers can also enable AMD CrossFire technology to harness the power of two or more AMD Radeon GPUs working in parallel for dramatically improved gaming performance.
Through the power and performance of the Graphics Core Next architecture, "Far Cry 3" leverages ground-breaking DirectX® 11 graphics features to ensure the most visually dynamic and smooth gaming experience. These features include:

Family grieves for soldier who died after six tours of duty
Kevin Lamarque / Reuters
Lesleigh Coyer, 25, of Saginaw, Michigan, lies down in front of the grave of her brother, Ryan Coyer, who served with the U.S. Army in both Iraq and Afghanistan, at Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia on March 11, 2013. Coyer died one year ago.
By Elizabeth Chuck, Staff Writer, NBC News
At 26, Staff Sgt. Ryan Coyer already had a lifetime of accomplishments: four tours to Afghanistan, two tours to Iraq, and being named a member of the elite U.S. Army Rangers.
On Monday, the eve of the one-year anniversary of Coyer's death, his family gathered at his graveside to commemorate that lifetime of accomplishments, unexpectedly cut short when Coyer died of cardiac arrest.
"The kid could do anything he wanted as long as he put his mind to it," Anthony Coyer, Ryan's father, told Michigan's MLive.com last year of his son, who was born in Nashville but grew up in Saginaw, Mich., playing football and frequently landing on the honor roll. "He wouldn't admit that."
Coyer enlisted in the Army in 2004, according to his obituary, posted by Snow Funeral Home in Saginaw. He was 19 when he enlisted; his father said he had made the decision to leave Saginaw — a town of 52,000 — for boot camp in Georgia when he was still a high school senior.
"Before he graduated [high school], he signed himself up," Anthony Coyer told MLive.com. "He did it on his own and he came home one day and told his mom and dad what he was going to do."
Six months after enlisting, according to his obituary, Coyer was assigned to the 75th Ranger Regiment, the special operations command unit of the U.S. Army Rangers.
Soon Coyer was deployed overseas, then deployed again — and again. In between his two tours of duty in Iraq and four in Afghanistan, Coyer wouldn't talk much about what his prestigious team did in combat.
"We just know that he ... served to protect and defend this country, and he did a damn good job of it," Anthony Coyer told MLive.com.
Coyer had been back on base at Hunter Army Airfield in Savannah, Ga., on March 12, 2012, when he suddenly died of cardiac arrest. Further details surrounding his death weren't made public.
Efforts by NBC News to reach Coyer's family on Tuesday were unsuccessful.
Lesleigh Coyer, his younger sister, called her only sibling a protective "best friend" who was never quick to like the guys she chose to date. She told MLive.com that she and her brother, just two years apart, used to get into mischief all the time, such as toilet papering their neighborhood late at night.
The final resting place for Lesleigh Coyer's partner-in-mischief — a decorated serviceman who loved lifting weights and riding his motorcycle, his obituary says — is Arlington National Cemetery. On Monday, a Reuters photographer took a picture of Lesleigh curled up on the ground in front of her brother's grave, grieving. She and her parents were visiting the military cemetery in Virginia from Saginaw a day before the one-year anniversary of Coyer's death.
"I looked up to him," Lesleigh Coyer told MLive.com via text days after her brother's death. "I leaned on him, just as he did me ... He was a great man and I was honored to be his sister."
NBC News' David Arnott contributed to this report.
