Jumping Spider (Phidippus species)
As members of the Family Salticidae (jumping spiders), species in the genus Phidippus feature eight eyes, two body segments, and spinnerets. Some of the largest salticids in the world are found in Florida, such as P. regius and P. otiosus, and at least 12 species occur in the Sunshine State, from a genus that includes more than 51 described species. Worldwide in distribution, jumping spiders are particularly well studied and appreciated in Japan.

The eyes of a jumping spider are arranged with four on top of the head, or cephalothorax, and four in front. Phidippus spiders have excellent vision with some of the highest acuities in the invertebrate world. The larger anterior median eyes of the spider function similarly to the human fovea, with a narrow field of view, but very high acuity. The remaining six eyes provide excellent peripheral vision to these carnivorous arachnids, with a much broader field of view, but lower resolution. Featuring a long focal length, the anterior median eyes are long and tubular, which improves resolution and magnification. Because of the narrow field of vision exhibited by these high-resolution eyes, the spider takes in its visual cues by moving its head, and the eyes themselves, to scan for potential prey or predators. The motion of the eyes, however, is restricted to movement of the retinas rather than the eyeballs, because the lenses are fixed to the chitinous carapace. One can actually look into the eyes of a jumping spider and observe its eyes changing colors. The darkest appearance of the eyes is seen when the spider is looking straight ahead, because one is looking directly into the retina.
Jumping spiders utilize a relatively large proportion of their brains for visual processing. It is interesting to note that the proportion of brain-to-body devoted by a jumping spider to visual tasks is similar to a human's. These arachnids are commonly called jumping spiders because they are capable of jumping 25 times their body length, and as predators, accurately pounce on their prey instead of spinning webs for entrapment.
Adult females have small palpi that they use solely as tiny "hands" to manage prey and clean their faces. Adult male Phidippus spiders feature swollen palpi that are structurally more complex from the female apparatus, and are used to transfer sperm to the females. Unusual in the animal kingdom, there is an additional sperm duct of the male that opens up into the facial palp. These characteristics are used by arachnologists to differentiate the sexes of mature salticid spiders.
When the male is ripe, he spins a small web and deposits on it a drop of sperm from the underside of his abdominal region. The tip of the palp is placed in the sperm web and the sperm is drawn through the opening and into the palp sperm duct for storage and later transfer. Once the male locates a female, and if she is receptive to his courtship ritual dance, the male places his palp against an abdominal hard plate known as her epigynum, locks into place with his tibial apophysis placed in a groove at the posterior of her epigynum, and then the palpus expands. With increasing blood pressure, the sperm is injected into the female, transferred into hardened ducts and reservoirs, and stored until her eggs are ready to be fertilized and laid.

We have been in full swing over here and life is busy!!! So much for a relaxing summer, we are keeping busy with an exciting "Alphabet Summer", swim lessons, mini-vacations, family visits, etc! Not to mention a lot of new responsibilities at church for me...ahh!! Where has all the time gone! I apologize for the lack of blogging...unfortunately it pretty much reflects my lack of crafting...sigh. We did manage to redo our mud/laundry room a month ago, I just need to get some pictures and I'll show you! But for now, here is my most recent creation. I just knew I had to make this shirt for my little Lincoln. There is a great tutorial over at MADE. Have I mentioned how much I am loving this baby...or as I affectionately call him, BABE Lincoln.
And this is what your baby looks like when you put him in the grass with lots of bright sun.

SWAT Monkey! a Natural for a Television Show
Wed Apr 20,10:14 AM ET Oddly Enough - Reuters
PHOENIX (Reuters) - Send in the SWAT monkey.
It's not an order police commanders are accustomed to giving, but that could change if an Arizona police department follows through on a proposal to train a capuchin monkey for high-risk police operations.
A Special Weapons and Tactics veteran from Mesa, Arizona, a suburb of Phoenix, has researched the possibility of landing a $100,000 federal grant to fund a pilot program to train one monkey.
"Everybody laughs about it until they really start thinking about it," Sean Truelove told the East Valley Tribune, a local newspaper. "It could change the way we do business."
Major city police departments in the United States use paramilitary SWAT teams for hostage situations and in situations involving heavily armed criminals.
Truelove, who declined an interview request from Reuters, told the newspaper that the idea came to him in a dream about 18 months ago.
The test monkey could be trained to unlock doors and search buildings for police on command, Truelove was quoted as saying by the newspaper.
The capuchin monkey is considered one of the smartest primates, known by many for its decades-long association with organ grinders. The monkeys weigh three to eight pounds (1.3 kg to 3.5 kg) and live for 15 to 20 years.
Capuchin monkeys, native to southern central America, have been used to help disabled people, and are able to perform such tasks as retrieving items, serving food and opening and closing doors.
The Mesa, Arizona police department issued a statement saying: "We have always encouraged our department members to seek creative and innovative ways to improve public safety in our community."
But the department also said the idea of training a capuchin SWAT monkey had not been cleared by the department's executive ranks.
A representative from the nation's largest association of SWAT officers also could not resist poking a little fun at the proposal.
"I've always heard you can train a monkey to do anything," said Steve Smith, a board member of the National Tactical Officers Association when reached at a convention in Nashville. "Does this mean he's going to have on little black fatigues?"

Life is too short to take seriously, none of us get out of it alive.
Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be.Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it.

Ponzi schemer Bernie Madoff brutally assaulted in prison
2 hrs 9 mins ago
Last December, officials at the federal prison in Butner, N.C., rebuffed rumors of a prison-yard beatdown involving the facility's most famous inmate, Bernie Madoff—he of the multibillion-dollar Ponzi scheme that crashed to earth so ingloriously in 2008. Yes, the prison's administrators conceded, Madoff had suffered facial fractures and lacerations, broken ribs and a collapsed lung requiring an extended hospital stay. But the former Wall Street titan had just fallen out of his bunk bed, they insisted.
Today, observers who were skeptical of the odds that one's lung might collapse after a tumble out of bed were vindicated. The Wall Street Journal confirmed the more plausible version of events today: that Madoff was indeed jumped and beaten up by a fellow inmate, a "beefy" gent who possessed a black belt in judo—and had a personal grievance stemming from a Madoff-contracted debt he believed he was owed.
According to three prison sources the paper spoke to, the man who stole tens of billions of dollars from clients over a span of decades spends his days at the medium-security facility watching action films like "Lethal Weapon" and doling out financial advice to fellow inmates in the prison library. The sources say that Madoff's closest buddy is a New York pharmacist locked up for the illegal distribution of painkillers—but that he also socializes frequently with Carmine Persico, the head of the Colombo crime family.
The unnamed man—who's serving out a sentence based on federal drug charges—clearly is not part of the Madoff inner circle at Butner. He might well be able to score some free drinks once he's released, however, from fellow members of the bilked-by-Bernie fraternity—an extensive list that includes Kevin Bacon, Steven Spielberg and New York Mets owner Fred Wilpon. Even Harry Markopoulos, the whistle-blower who tracked the Madoff scam for years, has told the press he wouldn't have blanched at murdering Madoff if that was what it took to stop him.
The December incident wasn't the first time Madoff found himself engaged in a prison brawl. He allegedly emerged the victor after an argument with another inmate over the "state of the market" ended in fisticuffs last October. Additionally, the New York Post reported last year that various prison gangs, including the Butner facility's "homosexual posse," had been aggressively trying to recruit Madoff into their crews, regarding his notoriety in the outside world as a badge of honor.
Oddly, for all the concern about the irrational bent of the nation's army of pitchfork-wielding populists, physical attacks on Wall Street chieftains are not exactly epidemic. The only other former master of the universe who's suffered a physical attack was former Lehman Brothers head Dick Fuld—and he was smacked by one of his former employees, not a fleeced investor.
"It's actually been a little surprising that there haven't been more of them out there," said John Carney, about episodes in which financiers might find themselves on the wrong end of a fist. Carney, who covers Wall Street for Business Insider, adds that the cocoon of privilege that envelops most high-rolling investors can also serve as protective camouflage. "They live in a world where they have limited contact to normal human beings. In order to get beat up they have to be in the same room as people who aren't just like them."

The Rolling Stones, British rock group, formed in 1962, that drew on Chicago blues stylings to create a unique vision of the dark side of post-1960s counterculture. The original members were Mick Jagger (b. July 26, 1943, Dartford, Kent, England), Keith Richards (b. December 18, 1943, Dartford), Brian Jones (b. February 28, 1942, Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, England—d. July 3, 1969, Hartfield, Sussex, England), Bill Wyman (b. October 24, 1936, London, England), and Charlie Watts (b. June 2, 1941, London). Later members were Mick Taylor (b. January 17, 1948, Hereford, East Hereford and Worcester, England), Ron Wood (b. June 1, 1947, London), and Darryl Jones (b. December 11, 1961, Chicago, Illinois, U.S.).
No rock band has sustained consistent activity and global popularity for so long a period as the Rolling Stones, still capable, more than 50 years after their formation, of filling the largest stadia in the world. Though several of their mid-1960s contemporaries—notably Bob Dylan, Paul McCartney, Eric Clapton, and Van Morrison—have maintained individual positions in rock's front line, the Rolling Stones' nucleus of singer Jagger, guitarist Richards, and drummer Watts remains rock's most durable ongoing partnership.
In the process, the Stones have become rock's definitive, emblematic band: a seamless blend of sound, look, and public image. It may be debatable whether they have actually, at any given moment, been the "greatest rock-and-roll band in the world," as their time-honoured onstage introduction has claimed them to be; that they are the mold from which various generations of challengers—from the Who, Led Zeppelin, and Aerosmith via the New York Dolls, the Clash, and the Sex Pistols all the way to Guns N' Roses and Oasis—have been struck is not. In their onstage personae, Jagger and Richards established the classic rock band archetypes: the preening, narcissistic singer and the haggard, obsessive guitarist.
Formation and early music
Formed in London as an alliance between Jagger, Richards, and multi-instrumentalist Brian Jones along with Watts and bassist Wyman, the Stones began as a grubby conclave of students and bohemians playing a then esoteric music based on Chicago blues in pubs and clubs in and around West London. Their potential for mass-market success seemed negligible at first, but by 1965 they were second only to the Beatles in the collective affection of teenage Britain. However, whereas the Beatles of the mid-1960s had longish hair, wore matching suits, and appeared utterly charming, the Stones had considerably longer hair, all dressed differently, and seemed thoroughly intimidating. As the Beatles grew ever more respectable and reassuring, the Stones became correspondingly more rebellious and threatening. The Stones—specifically Jagger, Richards, and Jones—were subjected to intense police and press harassment for drug use and all-purpose degeneracy, whereas the Beatles, who were in private life no less fond of marijuana, sex, and alcohol, were welcomed at Buckingham Palace and made Members of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) by the queen.
The Stones' early repertoire consisted primarily of recycled gems from the catalogs of the blues and rock-and-roll titans of the 1950s: their first five singles and the bulk of their first two albums were composed by others. The turning point was reached when, spurred on by the example of the Beatles' John Lennon and Paul McCartney, Jagger and Richards began composing their own songs, which not only ensured the long-term viability of the band but also served to place the Jagger-Richards team firmly in creative control of the group. Jones had been their prime motivating force in their early days, and he was the band's most gifted instrumentalist as well as its prettiest face, but he had little talent for composition and became increasingly marginalized. His textural wizardry dominated their first all-original album, Aftermath (1966), which featured him on marimba, dulcimer, sitar, and assorted keyboards as well as on his customary guitar and harmonica. Thereafter, however, he declined in both creativity and influence, becoming a depressive, drug-sodden liability eventually fired by the band mere weeks before his death.
First original hits: "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" and "Get off My Cloud"
The Jagger-Richards songwriting team created its first bona fide classic, "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction," in 1965 and enjoyed a string of innovative hit singles well into 1966, including "Paint It Black," "19th Nervous Breakdown," "Get off My Cloud," "Have You Seen Your Mother, Baby," and "Lady Jane," but the era of art-pop and psychedelia, which coincided with the Beatles' creative peak, represented a corresponding trough for the Stones. The fashions of the era of whimsy and flower power did not suit their essentially dark and disruptive energies, and their psychedelic album Their Satanic Majesties Request (1967), with its accompanying single "We Love You," was a comparatively feeble riposte to the Beatles' all-conquering Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band and contributed little beyond its title to their legend. Furthermore, they were hampered by seemingly spending as much time in court and jail as they did in the studio or on tour. However, as the mood of the time darkened, the Stones hit a new stride in 1968 with the epochal single "Jumpin' Jack Flash," which reconnected them to their blues-rock roots, and the album Beggars Banquet. Replacing Jones with the virtuosic but self-effacing guitarist Mick Taylor, they returned to the road in 1969, almost instantly becoming rock's premier touring attraction.
By the end of 1970 the Beatles had broken up, Jimi Hendrix was dead, and Led Zeppelin had barely appeared on the horizon. Though Led Zeppelin eventually outsold the Stones by five albums to one, no group could challenge their central position in the rock pantheon. Moreover, the death of Brian Jones combined with Taylor's lack of onstage presence elevated public perception of Richards's status from that of Jagger's right-hand man to effective coleader of the band.
Sticky Fingers and Exile on Main Street
The period between "Jumpin' Jack Flash" and the double album Exile on Main Street (1972) remains their creative and iconic peak. Including the studio albums Let It Bleed (1969) and Sticky Fingers (1971) plus the in-concert Get Yer Ya-Yas Out! (1970), it gave them the repertoire and image that still defines them and on which they have continued to trade ever since: an incendiary blend of sex, drugs, Satanism, and radical politics delivered with their patented fusion of Jagger's ironic distance and Richards's tatterdemalion intensity. Their records and concerts at this time both explored and provided the soundtrack for the contradictions of a collapsing counterculture at a time when almost everybody else—the Doors, the Velvet Underground, and Frank Zappa's Mothers of Invention excepted—still seemed to be in a state of psychedelic euphoria.
Produced first by Glyn Johns and Jimmy Miller and then by Jagger and Richards themselves (as the "Glimmer Twins"), their recordings of this period found them adding country music to their list of influences and—most notably on Beggars Banquet—adding more and more acoustic guitar textures to their already impressive command of musical light and shade. Yet their blues-powered foray into the era's heart of darkness bore bitter fruit indeed: when a young black man was murdered by Hells Angels (hired as security) at a disastrous free concert at the Altamont Speedway in Livermore, California, during their 1969 American tour, it seemed to many observers that the Stones' own aura of decadence and danger was somehow to blame for the tragedy.
Lineup changes, disbanding, and reunion
The quality of their music began to decline after Exile on Main Street. Jagger and Richards began to act out the group's fascination with the juxtaposition of high society and lowlife: the singer became a jet-set figure; the guitarist, a full-time junkie who finally "cleaned up" in 1977 and thereby saved both his own life and the band's future. Taylor left in 1975 to be replaced by Wood, formerly of the Faces, and, despite the occasional bright spot like Some Girls (1978), Emotional Rescue (1980), or "Start Me Up" (1981), the Stones' albums and singles became increasingly predictable, though their tours continued to sell out. They even briefly disbanded in the late 1980s after a public spat between Jagger and Richards. Both leaders recorded solo albums that performed relatively poorly in the marketplace, though Richards's work was significantly more favourably reviewed than Jagger's.
Disputes settled, the Stones reconvened in 1989 for their Steel Wheels album and tour. Wyman retired in 1992 and was replaced on tour by Daryl Jones, formerly a bassist for Miles Davis and Sting, and in the studio by a variety of guest musicians. Jagger, Richards, Watts, and Wood continue to trade as the Rolling Stones, and, whenever they tour, audiences flock in the thousands to discover if the old lions can still roar. The general consensus is that they can. In their late middle age the ultimate rebels became the ultimate institution, and to many they remain the ultimate rock band.
Documentaries, later music, and awards
Several prominent film directors sought to translate the electricity of the Stones as live performers to the screen, including Jean-Luc Godard, with the impressionistic Sympathy for the Devil (1968); Hal Ashby, with Let's Spend the Night Together (1982); and, perhaps most notably, David Maysles, Albert Maysles, and Charlotte Zwerin, with Gimme Shelter (1970), which covered the group's 1969 tour and Altamont Speedway concert. More recently, in the wake of the group's well-received album A Bigger Bang (2005), director Martin Scorsese, long a fan of the group, focused less on the spectacle of a Stones' concert and more on the band as performers. The result, Shine a Light (2008), met with critical acclaim and confirmed that the Rolling Stones were still a major presence in the rock scene of the 21st century. In 2012 the band celebrated its 50th anniversary with concerts in England and the United States. That year also saw the release of the retrospective documentary Crossfire Hurricane.
In 2016 the Rolling Stones returned to their beginnings for their first studio album in 11 years, Blue & Lonesome, an assemblage of Chicago blues covers that won the Grammy Award for best traditional blues album. This was only the second album by the band to win a Grammy and came more than two decades after the first, when Voodoo Lounge (1994) took the award for best rock album. The Rolling Stones received a Grammy Award for lifetime achievement in 1987, and two years later they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. In 2003 Jagger was knighted by Prince Charles.

text: Rehabilitation Pelvic Floor Therapy for Incontinence Incontinence is a regular side effect of radical prostatectomy surgery. However, the majority of patients experience the return of normal function with time. Patients who have continued problems with urinary incontinence often improve with physical therapy. Physical therapists work with prostatectomy patients to teach them appropriate pelvic floor muscle exercises that serve to squeeze the urethra and prevent the leakage of urine. Prior to surgery, closure of the urethra occurs primarily where it passes through the prostate, but this closure mechanism is removed with the surgery. Physical therapy is occasionally ordered prior to the prostatectomy surgery to allow patients to learn the proper technique. Otherwise, therapy typically begins about 8 to 10 weeks after surgery. Physical therapy begins with an evaluation which and testing of the strength and duration of the pelvic floor contractions. Therapy concentrates on isolation of the pelvic floor from other muscle groups that are commonly activated when a patient attempts to contract the pelvic floor. These muscles include the abdominals, hip and thigh muscle groups. Some of these muscle groups can work in opposition to the pelvic floor; for example, the abdominal muscles can increase the pressure placed on the bladder which can increase, not decrease leakage. Biofeedback is often used in therapy to allow a visual reference to the contraction. Based on the performance of the pelvic floor, a program of home exercises is developed and taught to the patient. For example, a patient with a weak pelvic floor often needs to begin exercises while lying down and can progress with time to sitting, and standing, and then to exercises with other activities such as during a golf swing. Post-Prostatectomy Erectile Dysfunction Rehabilitation Treatment to restore erectile function should be a part of every patient's recovery plan following prostatectomy, but early return of erectile function is not always possible. St. Joseph Hospital physicians are committed to a program of early erectile dysfunction rehabilitation for patients after radical prostatectomy. Physicians often use a combined approach including oral medication, intra-urethral suppositories and vacuum erection devices. When these approaches are not sufficient, the use of penile injection therapy or insertion of a penile prosthesis may be appropriate. The recovery of erectile ability may not be complete for as long as two years, even though some patients recover much sooner. Age and erectile ability prior to surgery are important determinants of postoperative recovery of erections sufficient for intercourse. Current and future studies of post-prostatectomy erectile dysfunction are focusing on improving penile rehabilitation, enhancing nerve regeneration and preserving penile length. In addition, researchers are developing drugs to help protect the nerves spared during prostatectomy, a novel approach that may help prevent post-prostatectomy erectile dysfunction.

Some of my games are available in the google play store for Android devices! Check them out and download them for free over here:
Please note that I have quite a few flash games on this website. These games does not have a phone symbol in the corner of the thumbnail. You need to enable flash for your browser in order for them to work (how to do this varies between browsers, google yours and you should get the appropriate guide up). Furthermore these games only work on desktop (or if you are using a browser such as puffin which does enable flash on mobile devices).
PLEASE NOTE: Flash is being deprecated, more and more browsers are pulling support for it. It's still working for me in chrome on desktop so the best tip I can give is to use that. But sadly there's nothing else I can do.
Please check wether the game is flash or HTML5 before telling me that it's not working.
If it's an HTML5 game (meaning that the thumbnail has a phone icon in there) and you're still experiencing issues, include what device and browser you are using in your report and if you're using an adblocker. "The game is not working" does not help me in helping you.
Thanks 🙂
Please note that all comments needs to be manually approved on this website, this is simply to avoid publishing offensive comments which the spam filter doesn't detect. So don't worry about your comment not showing up right away after posting it, it will show up soon! 🙂 (also this method allows me to go through all comments and therefore also potential feedback and bug reports!)
If you like the games I create, I would greatly appreciate any support you can give to help me continue doing these! You can support me in three ways!

The family records have never had a birth or death date for Henry and Jean Hayward Wessman's stillborn son, but I just chanced on a burial record for him, and have updated his information in Family Tree (the replacement for NewFamilySearch). His birth, death, and burial date is September 23, 1913.
Here is his death certificate. It was filed under "Wissman."
Here is the page showing his entry in the Utah Death Register.
The baby is buried in the Salt Lake City Cemetery in plot J-12-12-W-2 (or J-12-12-2-W). Is this by the graves of Henry and Jean Wessman?
It was a little emotional for me to suddenly come upon this record due to a similar loss in the Wessman family this past week; our thoughts and prayers are with our cousin and his wife and children.

Yesterday marked 10 years since I was diagnosed with leukemia. When I heard the words "you have cancer" I was 23 and had simply gone to my regular doctor for a check-up. I wasn't feeling sick at all, but a routine blood test revealed I had chronic myelogenous leukemia, a slow-moving form of blood cancer that traditional chemotherapy did little to stop.
Without successful treatment, I would have had five years to live. The only known cure was a bone marrow transplant, a grueling and risky procedure that requires a perfect genetic match. I didn't know what the next day would hold, let alone the years. I didn't know if I could keep working. I didn't know if I'd ever get married or have kids. I didn't know if I'd live to see my thirties.
The good news: Six months before I was diagnosed the FDA approved a new, targeted drug therapy that was putting people's CML into remission without making them sick. It was a revolutionary idea in cancer treatment—targeting the bad cells without obliterating the good ones—and it was being touted as a miracle drug. Although it turned out that my sister, Meghan, was a perfect match for a potential bone marrow transplant, I chose the new therapy. I was able to start treatment three months after being diagnosed and those little orange pills (which I combined with daily injections of a different chemotherapy for the first 18 months) put me into remission within a year. 10 years later, I am still taking that drug—Gleevec—and my cancer remains at bay. In fact, when my blood gets tested every three months (I ship it to the amazing Michael Mauro at Oregon Health and Sciences University in Portland, Oregon), the lab struggles to find any sign of cancer, anywhere. A miracle, indeed.
Another miracle: The fact that I have the two happy, healthy, wild and crazy kids I write about on this blog every week, kids who wouldn't have been here if I hadn't been so damn lucky (I had to stop taking Gleevec during both pregnancies, which was risky, but my cancer never came back). I wanted to share my cancerversary with all of you because I want you to know what a treat it is for me to get to write a parenting post every week, spouting nonsense like trick or treat etiquette and whether my kid's preschool teacher thinks I'm an idiot. It's exactly where I'd want to be, regardless of that diagnosis 10 years ago. I still take Gleevec every day and will continue to do so indefinitely, but it's a small price to pay for living a healthy life. A life that is ridiculously full of, if not overflowing with, good stuff.
I sometimes forget what I went through—and what my family went through—and I think that's a good thing (and, frankly, a luxury that far too many cancer patients don't get) but I also think it's good to remember once in a while. I was having lunch with a friend last week and told her that my cancer experience just didn't seem like a big deal. She begged to differ and then we got talking about denial as a coping mechanism. Maybe mine isn't denial but a very good ability to buck up and move on. After our lunch I went back and reread some of my Glamour columns (I chronicled my journey—and then my sister's—for over seven years in the magazine and in the life with cancer blog) and so much came flooding back to me. Cancer was my full-time job. Whether it was going for treatment, giving myself nightly injections, traveling to Oregon for my bone marrow biopsies, having constant blood tests, writing about it (shameless book plug here), reading about it, speaking publicly about it, raising money for it, even going on TV to talk about it, cancer was the main focus of my life for so many years. I couldn't get through a single column without crying. Or without feeling extremely proud that I had the opportunity to share my story.
The number one reason it's good to look back at my cancer journey over the last 10 years: so I never forget how lucky I am. I was able to keep working, to get married, to have kids. And regardless of how challenging those kids can be (Nora spent the entire ride home from school yesterday yelling at her baby doll: "you cannot say freakin ass, baby, you cannot say freakin ass, baby!"), the fact that they are here, and I am here, is truly amazing. And a testament to the fantastic doctors and researchers, like Brian Druker, who developed Gleevec (he's also at OHSU, where I was part of a clinical trial--read my post about him here) and to organizations like Gabrielle's Angel Foundation and the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, who raise millions to fund such groundbreaking, life-saving treatments.
I am planning some big things in the spring to help celebrate and commemorate my cancerversary (and to give back to the organizations that have helped my family and me so much) so stay tuned for that. In the meantime, thanks for always being here to read what I write, especially the silly nonsense.

ProgIntPrimer needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 70 designs submitted by 8 freelance designers.
Programming Interview Primer
I'm a former computer science student who's had extensive experience interviewing for computer programming jobs. I'm trying to develop a series of Microsoft PowerPoint videos that teaches students how to prepare for these types of interviews.
Computer science students or computer programmers. Basically anyone that would be interviewing for a programming position in the software industry.
I've attached the PowerPoint presentation which I need the logo developed for (ive also included gifs). The logo needs to go on the front cover where you see the title "Programming Interview Primer" and three staggered white boxes beneath it (more on this in a second):
-The words "Programming Interview Primer" must be included in the logo for the title, in white, and in Lucida Sans Console.
-I'd only like for you to use two colors for the logo: white and the texture that I've used as the background of my slide (I've attached below).
-As you can see I put three staggered white boxes underneath "Programming Interview Primer" and the white line beneath it. My initial idea was to have each box represent a state of the interview process. For instance in the first box, a guy is preparing for the interview (studying at a computer or something), second box guy is interviewing, third box guy receives an offer. These wouldn't have to be detailed illustrations, just the type of stick figureish characters you see in icons and stuff like that (maybe a little more detailed than that). If you could somehow take this concept and make it into an awesome logo that would be great. I like the gist of it, but would like it to look a lot nicer.

That is if this manga has any decency left in it. As it is now MC turns into Shoujo heroine. I wonder how many chapters left untill his balls fall of, or maybe they already did fall off.
Those stories about steroids killing your manhood must been true, super pill must been just so much stronger that shion balls just dried and fell off.

I thought about it.., but like Johnny said, when Shioon give his blood to Sosul was different, i mean..him take the most powerful Pill..and we all see the effect of this pill..no one can be compared to his blood after him take the magic pill,so i don't think she is giving her blood.
Actually this can be happen..i 'm curious to see what Sera did..
i remembered in one chapter that Sera was following in secret the doctor..is strange that she didn't notice that the doctor was like this..
ho well..like i said..i hope next chapter we know what she did...to help Shioon..for me is ok everything..i just hope that the pill is done soon..very soon.., because i want to see Shioon fight, and i want to see the Breaker be awesome like the first season.

Well, getting caught while trying to escape was expected, so at least I'm glad that wasn't put off another chapter. Psycho-doc's new face is a bit awesome, it suits him (can never remember his real name). I too am annoyed by shion's character, ever since his mom got hurt he's had this stupid do or die mentality. Please be a little considerate of the people trying to protect your dumbass…I need an English translation…and coffee...gonna go get some coffee

I will probably take a break on this one. I will wait until he got decent on his brains again. I will be fine for raws and when he got his heads back on the game. I will just marathon the translated chapters. He is really irritating me.

Hmm, the author is slowly adding more painful backgrounds to the "villain" characters associated with the S.U.C. so that Shioon will eventually realize how messed up the current Murim is after hearing their story.
Anyway, before the man in black hunt Doc's ass, it's not unreasonable for Shioon to attack the guy who tied him up for at least 3 hours, tried to dissect him and on top of that told him that he was responsible for his mother's state. Stupid? Yes. But all that bottled up rage should go somewhere, right? If it was 9AD in the same weakened state, he'd probably ignored Sera from the start and went right ahead in the direction of the enemy without even thinking about escaping.
Now to hope that this is the final arc of Shioon being useless and getting in these messy situations.

read the chapter...well..at the end the doctor said something true to Shioon..
"There's no medicine to cure your Idiocy"..this is true...but..the Doctor is responsible for what happened to Shioon Mom..so, i can understand Shioon this time...however...i expected that Sera was much stronger than this...she is a Master no?
let's see what they can do in this situation...

Cylindrical Projection
This is a type of projection for mapping a portion of the surface of a sphere to a flat image. It can be envisioned by imagining wrapping a flat piece of paper around the circumference of a sphere, such that it is tangent to the sphere at its equator. Shining a light from the center of the sphere then projects the spherical surface onto the flat paper. Mathworld's Page on the cylindrical projection shows an example and gives details on the mathematics.
In panoramic imaging, the cylindrical projection is most often used for prints of wide panoramas which occupy large range (>120 degrees) of longitude. Like the Equirectangular Projection, the cylindrical projection also preserves verticals, but it cannot represent data near the poles (nadir and zenith), which are distorted and stretched further and further to infinity, and straight lines which are not vertical in the final image become curved.
Cylindrical projection is the native output format of a rotating (scanning) panorama camera (like panoscan, spheron and others) with rectilinear lens or from a swing lens camera (Horizon, Noblex...)
Other forms of cylindrical projections which can represent the poles, such as the Mercator projection common in map-making, are not typically used in panoramic imaging.

Oil Prices Rise Above $104; Natural Gas Sinks
The price of oil rose more than a $1 for the third time in the last four trading days, and closed above $104 for the first time since July 3.
Benchmark U.S. crude for August delivery rose $1.46 to $104.59 on the New York Mercantile Exchange. On Friday, the Nymex contract fell 6 cents to $103.13. Oil has gained 4.6 percent over the past four trading sessions.
Brent crude for September delivery, a benchmark for international oils, gained 44 cents to $107.68 on the ICE exchange in London.
Meanwhile, natural gas prices sank further below $4 on forecasts for cooler temperatures in parts of the U.S. Natural gas supplies haven't been dropping as quickly this summer, as milder temperatures compared with last year reduce the need for homeowners to run the air conditioning full tilt.
Natural gas fell 10 cents to $3.85 per 1,000 cubic feet.
At the pump, gasoline prices inched lower to an average of $3.57. That's down 4 cents from a week ago and 11 cents cheaper than at this time last year.
In other Nymex trading:
- Wholesale gasoline rose 3 cents to $2.89 a gallon.
- Heating oil gained 1 cent to $2.86 a gallon.

Re: Ueshiba's Aiki
Golly, this thread moves fast. I'm nearly at the point of thinking Ken's not reachable, but what the hell--I have a glass of Talisker's at my elbow and I'm not ready for bed yet. Ken, do you really want an answer? Cuz this is my best shot at giving you one.
Part of the problem is nobody can speak for "Dan's people", not even Dan. We can all speak only for ourselves, and we're all someplace slightly different. It's the low-quality Kool-Aid Dan uses.
However, having drunk the Kool-Aid to some degree, here are my thoughts on the issues you've raised. Mine only, in fact I know some other IP guys disagree with some of this:
Cooperative practice:
All martial training is cooperative to some degree. When I took up boxing, the first time I put the gloves on with my trainer, you know what? He didn't knock my block off.
The problem people see is that so much of Aikido training is so cooperative that not only does your technique not have to work, but you get no feedback that it's not working. As a result the training becomes entirely ineffective.
It's also a complete misunderstanding of O-Sensei's intent, as I understand it. He forbade competition not because we're all supposed to be too full of sweetness and light to compete, but because as soon as you impose rules you have a sport, not a martial art. His art was supposed to be too fierce for competition, not too gentle.
Many modern Aikido dojos have gotten so much into the "art of peace" thing, they've lost sight of this fact. "Katsujinken" is first and foremost a
--once you've understood that, then it can give life. Cooperative practice is fine to learn the move, but then it has to get more and more realistic if you're going to advance in your technique, until finally you're honestly trying to clobber the guy while staying centered and able to deliver a follow-up blow, and they're honestly throwing you, and you take the fall because it's really the best way out of an unsafe situation.
O-Sensei's spirituality:
Of course O-Sensei was both spiritual and religious, and of course he talked of Aikido as a way to bring peace. But understand his language here in terms of his context as a Japanese budo man born at the beginning of the last century.
When O-Sensei spoke of "not trying to win" (referencing the 1957 interview, and thanks for posting it, it's a while since I last read it and it merits re-reading) he didn't mean that winning didn't matter. When he talked of budo being love, he didn't mean to give up to your opponent. He was perfectly capable of talking peace and love and then breaking his uke's arm on the mat through his vigorous technique--just as a Zen master can talk about compassion and detachment one moment and be shouting at his student over their stupidity the next.
In O-Sensei's case, he was using very traditional budo language to talk about the attitude of conflict--that being overly concerned for the outcome undercut your ability to be effective in the moment. "When my enemy raises his sword, I am already behind him, ready to strike him down" (paraphrasing, sorry) -- there's no need to be concerned about winning because you control the situation before it starts. "The state of continuous victory," to quote from the interview.
In the interview, O-Sensei says there is no attack in Aikido--yet his own demonstrations contain atemi. So he must be talking about the attitude, not the physical action. An attitude of love, while you're throwing uke across the room. And when he gets up, you're both laughing.
When people say his religion doesn't matter to Aikido, I believe they're mostly talking about Ooomoto specifically. Aikido as a spiritual practice is different from O-Sensei's religious background. And don't make too much of mirrors on the shomen--lots of things are carried on as tradition without any commitment to the original meaning.
Similarly for the quotes about being the embodiment of the Kami. Even a Christian might say they were inspired by or filled by the Holy Spirit. It's a great mistake to take religious language as literal language. Religious language is always, at base, poetic--the language of myth.
The problem with blending is that it's always limited. If uke is in control of their own movement, it doesn't matter whether you blend with it or not--they can choose when to stop or reverse their movement. Same with trying to use uke's momentum. This is why so many Aikido dojos get into attacks where uke throws themselves off balance with their own strike--because we think we're supposed to blend and so we try to make it possible for our partner to do it. If you don't do this in your dojo, good on you. If you do, I'm sorry, but other martial artists are right to laugh at you.
But O-Sensei says you never oppose your opponent's power. Isn't that blending? Well, no, not as it's typically taught. I'm not depending on uke's movement to defeat uke. I'm meeting it--whether it's a fast punch, a static grab, or a pull--and using whatever energy uke put into the attack to make a connection and use that connection to own their balance. Ultimately, this is a ki connection, though you don't have to use that term if you don't find it helpful. But if you do, you can understand how the no-touch throws work--you're making the ki connection before the physical connection and using that to lead their balance. You can see this clearly in O-Sensei's own no-touch throws.
This isn't even surprising, if you understand O-Sensei's own words. You don't oppose uke's force, so you don't put any power into the point where you and uke connect. That being the case, it doesn't actually much matter whether you're even physically touching at that point.
Incidentally, some of O-Sensei's demos make a clear distinction between blending and taking balance. Look for some of the video where O-Sensei meets a shomenuchi by stepping into the strike with a turn that leaves him standing pretty much parallel to uke but with his back to him. There's blending but no balance break, and uke typically stands there with a silly look on his face (notice that O-Sensei's ukes almost never throw themselves off balance). Then, O-Sensei turns the move into an actual technique and shows how he can add a ki connection, take balance, and make an actual technique of it.
Origins of Aikido:
As I said upthread, this is a bit of a red herring. In the interview, O-Sensei talks of teaching "Aikido" to Tenryu in Manchuria. This was clearly before the war, therefore before the term "Aikido" was even coined, and while O-Sensei was still teaching Daito-Ryu. Yet O-Sensei says he "knew the secret of 'Aikido'". Clearly, he's not using the term to mean the formal, defined art with a separate syllabus as it existed after the war.
I think he means here the same thing as he means when he says Takeda "opened my eyes to budo"--that Takeda taught him the skills and insights that make budo effective: the aiki skills that Dan is teaching, and that derive from the same source. But he thought those skills were the core and the specific Daito-Ryu techniques were window dressing that could be (and to some degree were) discarded at will.
I would speculate that he was searching for a purer or more immediate expression of those skills, and that what he did in developing Aikido was a paring away of elaborate and technically intricate technique in order to express the core skills more directly--Matisse to Takeda's Picasso. I think he did see cooperative practice and ukemi as important elements of practicing these skills.
What I think he didn't foresee was that the big throws would become so seductive that people would focus on them to the exclusion of the core skills that he knew were required to make his Aikido martially effective. So his students neglected the solo exercises for the flashy throws. So: "This is not my Aikido."
The best specific example is in the kamae thread. I'm not gonna hunt it--you should have done so already--but the basic story is that O-Sensei wrote or had written in his manual "Budo" a term ("roppo") describing a specific stance. It seemed to mean "open the feet in 6 directions" but the translator (Stevens) didn't know what that meant and asked Saito Sensei, who just said, "Oh, it means hanmi." So Stevens translated it as "stand with your feet at 60 degrees to each other" (paraphrasing throughout, but I have the sense). There were additional passages that he didn't understand at all, and rather than put a bunch of gibberish into his book he just left it out.
But it turns out that "6 directions" is a well-known concept in the internal arts, with a specific meaning. So the translation buried a link to a traditional body of martial knowledge.
Other, similar passages have been cited--e.g. moving in opposing spirals. One passage talked about putting Izanami in your left foot and Izanagi in your right, which is
baffling if you don't know how Izanami and Izanagi are pictured as spiraling around each other
how spirals are used in martial movement. But when you have all the pieces, they lock together like a jigsaw puzzle, so much so that they self-evidently go together.
Jeez, this is way too long for a forum post. But it's late and my glass is empty, so I'll put it up as is. Anybody who gets through it, I'll buy
a glass of Talisker's if we ever meet.

Unified Communications Virtualization Sizing Guidelines
From DocWiki
Go to: Guidelines to Edit UC Virtualization Pages
This article provides specifics and examples to aid in sizing Unified Communications applications for the UCS B-series and C-series servers.
Application Co-residency Support Policy
All UCS tested reference configurations are sized for co-residency except for C210 M1 Tested Reference Configuration #1 (which is only sized to host a single VM of 7500 user capacity). Note that the tested reference configuration for UCS C200 M2 is sized for co-residency at a lower capacity per VM than UCS B200 or C210 so only supports a subset of Virtual Machine templates.
The max number of virtual machines supported per physical server depends on the hardware selected and the quantity and resource usage of selected virtual machine OVAs.
Rules for VM count per physical server and VM/application mix are the same for both Tested Reference Configurations and Specifications-based VMware Support.
To determine which applications may share a physical server, use the following guidelines:
- Supported co-resident applications are "UC with UC only".
- Co-residency of UC with 3rd-party application VMs - such as TFTP/SFTP/DNS/DHCP servers, Directories, Groupware, File/print, CRM, etc. - is not supported at this time. These applications may be placed on a separate physical server from UC. For UCS B-series, this can be an adjacent blade in the same chassis.
- Co-residency of UC with non-UC VMs such as Nexus 1000V VSM or VMware vCenter are not supported at this time. These applications may be placed on a separate physical server from UC. For UCS B-series, this can be an adjacent blade in the same chassis.
- See Unified Communications Virtualization Supported Applications for product-specific co-residency rules. Product-specific co-residency rules take precedence over the support policy on this page. The following apps have product-specific co-residency rules:
- Cisco Unified Communications Manager Business Edition 6000
- Virtualization for Cisco Unified Presence
- Virtualization for Unified CCE
- Virtualization for Unified Intelligence Center
- Virtualization for CCMP with Unified CCE on UCS Hardware
- Virtualization for Unified CVP
- Virtualization for Cisco MediaSense
- Virtualization for Cisco SocialMiner
Note: Cisco Unity requires CPU Affinity which may not be desirable for other applications sharing the server.
- All co-resident applications must support UC on UCS. See Unified Communications Virtualization Supported Applications for more information.
Note: Supported versions may vary by application. See Cisco Unified Communications System Documentation for more details on inter-product version compatibility.
- You must use a server/storage/network configuration (see Unified Computing System Hardware) which is supported by all the co-resident applications/versions (see Unified Communications Virtualization Supported Applications). For example, some applications/versions do not support C200, or only support M2 generations but not M1.
- Otherwise you can mix and match UC apps on the same server.
- All applications must use a supported virtual machine OVA template. See Unified Communications Virtualization Downloads (including OVA/OVF Templates) for more information.
- All applications require the virtual machine to use a physical CPU core for each virtual CPU. For example, if an application virtual machine uses two virtual CPUs, then you will need two physical CPU cores for this virtual machine. Only Cisco Unity virtual machines have a different requirement of using VMware CPU Affinity.
- If there is at least one live Unity Connection VM on the server, then one CPU core per physical server must be idle/unused (it is actually being used by ESXi scheduler).
- The sum of virtual machines' vCPU cores may not exceed the total physical CPU cores on the physical server (less one if hosting at least one live Unity Connection VM).
- The sum of virtual machines' vRAM (plus 2GB for VMware overhead) may not exceed the total physical memory on the physical server.
- For supported DAS deployments, the sum of virtual machines' vDisk may not exceed the physical disk space of the physical servers' logical volume(s) (based on RAID configuration).
- For UCS B200 and C210, you may otherwise mix and match applications, versions and OVAs (of any size) in any quantity as long as you do not oversubscribe any physical server resources as described above.
- For UCS C200, you must align with these rules:
- The only supported virtual machine OVA templates are:
- CUCM - Unified Communications Manager 1000 users
- CER - Emergency Responder 12,000 users
- CUC or UCxn - Unity Connection 500 users, 1000 users and 5000 users
- CUP - Unified Presence 1000 users
- CUCCX - Unified Contact Center Express 100 agents
- Other unlisted OVA templates are not supported on C200 as they are sized too big.
- If C200 is used for Unified Communications Manager Business Edition 6000 then you must follow its co-residency rules.
- Otherwise at this time the following co-residency scenarios are supported:
- Four VMs: CUCM 1000 users + CUC 1000 users + CUP 1000 users + CUCCX 100 users (the scenario used by Unified Communications Manager Business Edition 6000 )
- Up to four VMs: 1 to 4 CUC of various user sizes provided you don't over-subscribe any physical server resources as described previously.
- Four VMs: 4 CUP 1000 users
- Four VMs: 4 CUCM 1000 users
- Three VMs: 3 CUCCX 100 users
- Also, any CUCM VM may be substituted with a CER 12,000 user VM in the above scenarios.
- The only supported virtual machine OVA templates are:
See the Sizing Examples at the bottom of this page for examples of using these guidelines.
Redundancy and Failover Considerations
Application-layer considerations (such as Unified CM Cluster over WAN or Unified CCE Remote Redundancy) are the same for virtualized (UC on UCS) or non-virtualized (MCS 7800) deployments.
However, since there is no longer a 1:1 relationship between hardware and application instances, "placement logic" must be taken into account to minimize the impact of hardware unavailability or unreachability:
- Avoid placing a primary VM and a backup VM on the same server, chassis or site
- For failover groups, avoid placing all actives on the same server, chassis or site
- Avoid placing all VMs of the same role on the same server, chassis or site
See QoS Design Considerations for Virtual UC with UCS and Shared Storage Considerations.
Sizing Examples
This section shows a sample system configuration based on following the High-level Checklist for Design and Implementation for the following set of customer requirements:
- General Requirements

After going through the design process, the following servers were selected to host the virtualized UC applications:
- Six Cisco UCS B200 Blade Servers for HQ (running in a UCS 5100 Chassis connected to UCS 6100 Fabric Interconnect Switches), using TRC#1 (UCS-B200M2-VCS1).
- Three Cisco UCS C210 General-Purpose Rack-Mount Servers for Branch A, using TRC#1 (UCS-C210M2-VCD2)

The Federal Office for Radiation Protection (BfS) is an organisationally independent scientific-technical higher federal authority in the portfolio of the Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety (BMU).
The BfS pools competencies in the area of radiation protection, among others in
- Effects and risks of ionising radiation,
- Effects and risks of non-ionising radiation (e.g. in mobile communication, UV protection),
- Radiological emergency preparedness,
- Monitoring of environmental radioactivity,
- Medical and occupational radiation protection.
History and development of the BfS
The BfS was established in 1989, among others as a consequence of the reactor accident in Chernobyl in 1986, with the objective to pool competencies in the fields of radiation protection, nuclear safety, transport and storage of nuclear fuels, and radioactive waste disposal.
In 2016, the legislator adapted the governmental institutions to the current developments and responsibilities. The consequence for the BfS was that it is now focussing on the federal tasks of radiation protection:
- Radiation protection and environment, as well as
- Radiation protection and health.
The responsibilities as operator of the repository projects, including the Konrad and Morsleben repositories as well as the Asse mine, were combined in the newly established Bundesgesellschaft für Endlagerung (BGE), the federally-owned company responsible for radioactive waste disposal. Licences for interim storage facilities and nuclear transports, which were also in the responsibility of the BfS for a long time, are now granted by the Federal Office for the Safety of Nuclear Waste Management (BfE).
Current organisational structure
The BfS is composed of the following scope of duties and divisions:
Divisions "Effects and Risks of Ionising and Non-Ionising Radiation" and "Medical and Occupational Radiation Protection"show / hide
The tasks of the two divisions "Effects and Risks of Ionising and Non-Ionising Radiation" and "Medical and Occupational Radiation Protection" comprise a broad spectrum to include:
- Implementation tasks according to Radiation Protection Ordinance and X-Ray Ordinance,
- The determination and development of the state of the art of science and technology in the field of ionising and non-ionising radiation,
- Medical and occupational radiation protection including incorporation monitoring,
- Planning and conducting epidemiological studies,
- Guidance to the Federal Environment Ministry,
- International and national co-operation in radiation protection,
- The representation of the Federal Republic of Germany in national and international scientific societies and committees, and
- The communication and co-operation in technical issues with public institutions and the population.
To determine and further develop the state of the art of science and technology, own research is carried out and projects are designed, professionally assisted and implemented in the scope of the national environment research programme.
Divisions "Emergency Preparedness & Response" and "Environmental Radioactivity"show / hide
The two divisions "Emergency Preparedness & Response" and "Environmental Radioactivity" carry out scientific and administrative tasks in the field of radiation protection. The work mainly focusses on the solution of practical radiation protection problems. Particular priority is attached to
- The determination and monitoring of radiation exposures due to natural and artificial radiation sources using corresponding scientific methods,
- The operation of the radioactivity measuring network (dose rate measuring network),
- The evaluation of determined situations, and
- • Assessment of necessity and effect of technical and organisational measures in the area of radiological emergency preparedness.
Central Departmentshow / hide
The Central Department of the Federal Office for Radiation Protection supports the departments and pools the following administrative tasks:
- Organisational and human resources development as well as human resources management
- Finances and procurement
- Legal department, data protection and licensing procedures
- Real estate and internal services
- Information technology
- Co-ordination of research and administrative processing of research projects
- Maintenance of competence as well as apprenticeship and in-service training in radiation protection

Back to whole grains with a Dragon's Breath twist
Though I'm sure I'll be lured away once again by the delights of a good poolish, I'm back to baking whole grains. In fact, last week, I think I may have pulled the prettiest loaf of whole grain sourdough hearth bread I've ever made out of the oven.
Here's the loaf just before it went into the oven.
And the innards.
This bread has quickly become my "daily bread," the loaf I make most often, whether for dinner or sandwiches.
I also took a shot at my own variant of the Dragon's Breath Bread that Eric Hanner posted several weeks back. I tried to make a 50% whole wheat ciabatta with sauteed garlic cloves and cheddar cheese chunks. It was an interesting experiment and made a killer sandwich, but next time, I think I'll chop the cloves up a bit and not bother with trying for ciabatta. As you can see, it didn't turn out exactly as I'd hoped, especially since part of the loaf stuck to the peel:
And the crumb ...
Thanks, Eric, for posting that recipe. Was fun!

I have implemented my own piece of code for computing a cholesky decomposition for symmetric packed matrices. To test it, I compared it with the LAPACK-routine dpptrf, but unfortunately the results were not similar.
However, compared to the dpotrf-routine, the results are exactly the same.
Besides the use of packed format in dpptrf is there any other algorithmic difference with dpotrf?
It seems that the second diagonal element (L(2,2)) is already quite different. In dpptrf it is just the square root of the original A(2,2)-element while it should be: sqrt(A(2,2)-A(2,1)²/A(1,1)).
Is there some sort of block algorithm used in dpptrf?
Best regards,
edit: I must say that the matrix was a singular matrix, does that make any difference?

How long has it been since fermentation has completed? In my experience the hefe yeast will drop clear as bell after a month or so. You can always shake your bottle or keg to get the yeast roused back up.
My kegged wheat beers always drop clear. I don't really have a problem with it, though I've had some friends comment that it doesn't look like a wheat beer. Oh well.As mentioned, you can always rock the keg to get some yeast back in suspension.
When I do a (rarely) wheat beer I put 1/2 tsp cornstarch in at the END of the boil. Adds permanent starch haze!

Passport Revenue Opportunities
Seems Americans have caught the travel bug. Maybe it's because there is more disposable income in a post-recession America, or a more global economy requires more international business travel. Whatever the reason, one result is that passports are a hot commodity these days. The U.S. Department of State says it issued well over a million more passports in fiscal year (FY) 2014 than in FY 2011.
