New Delhi, Dec 28: Key UPA allies DMK and Trinamool Congress today expressed apprehensions that the Constitution Amendment Bill may erode the powers of states which are derived from the federal setup of the country.
"I am afraid that this Bill may erode the strength of the state governments...I would like to make it clear that our nation is functioning in a federal setup. Federal structure has to be honoured," DMK's K P Ramalingam said in the debate at the Rajya Sabha.
Noting that co-operative societies come under control of states, the DMK MP said, "I have a doubt as to what is the need to bring this Bill now?...I would like to ask whether this amendment is necessary at this time. If so, will it not deprive the state governments of their power?"
He said if the state governments are deprived of all of their powers, "gradually, I fear that it will lead the state governments to demand autonomy."
Ramalingam, in his speech in Tamil, said it does not matter whether it is one party or of multi-parties rule, "it has to be clear that our nation is functioning in a federal setup."
"In a federal structure, the powers of the state governments have to be given due regard. They should not be deprived of their rights," he said.
Taking part in the debate, Trinamool MP D Bandyopadhyay said to some extent, he agreed with Pyari Mohan Mohapatra (BJD), who had opposed the Bill saying it was not required and would encroach upon the rights of the state.
"To some extent, I support my friend Mohapatra, that it should not have gone into so much of details. Give a format and leave it to the states to do it. Basically, it is a State Subject except the multi-state cooperatives, for which you can have a complete law," he said.

In my Software Spotlight, I introduced FreeFileSync as a solution to set up drive/directory mirroring in a matter of minutes, without dealing with 3rd-party OS's (mainly Western Digital, who couldn't write a functioning program if their business depended on it.) The only problem is that that you have to do some additional configuration to get it to launch on startup. There's a bit of a guide here, but I think I can do a better job of explaining it:
1. The above is a bit small, but you want to open up FreeFileSync and save your settings as a batch file (.ffs_batch) to wherever you want. I put mine in the same directory as the FFS install.
2. Next, you're going to create a new shortcut in the Startup directory. Please don't be a scrub and manually navigate to the directory – put shell:startup in the file explorer bar instead. Your target is going to be two directories separated by a space: First the path to the RTS executable, and the second to the batch file from step one. Start the shortcut in the FFS directory.
3. Now open task scheduler and configure a new task. Name it something intelligent. Because our backups depend on it, all the other settings are going to be geared towards this thing always running. Make sure you configure it for your OS – it defaults to Vista (?) otherwise.
4. Set the trigger to begin at startup. That's sort of the whole point of this.
5. Your action is going to be to start a program. Point it to the RTS .exe and then set the argument to the batch file.
6. The last step is to configure the settings to have this thing run as much as humanly possible. Most of this is turned off by default, so you can go through and turn on what makes sense to do, or match what I have above.
7. Reboot your PC and test functionality.

Thursday 13 February, 2014 - A woman in Melbourne's northern suburbs won $1 million overnight in Monday & Wednesday Lotto!
The woman, in her early 40s, was incredulous when contacted by a Tatts official today.
"You're kidding me. This can't be real," the woman said on the phone.
"You have all sorts of fantasies about what you'd do if you won lotto but right now I can't even think!"
When the good news had sunk in a little more, the woman said she now has some important planning to do with her husband.
"My husband is the sensible, cautious type so I think we'll put some of the money towards our mortgage, and some towards savings," the winning woman said.
"After that there may be a treat like a holiday, and we'll see who we can help in our family as well.
"We'll also get financial guidance about how to use the prize money. There may be some negotiations with my husband!" she laughed.
The division one winning Monday & Wednesday Lotto 16-game entry was purchased online from Tatts.com.
The winning numbers in Monday & Wednesday Lotto draw 3321 on 12 February 2014 were 8, 34, 36, 14, 44 and 28 with the supplementary numbers of 13 and 23.
Monday & Wednesday Lotto guarantees a $1,000,000 division one prize for up to four winners every Monday and Wednesday.
$20 Million Superdraw on Saturday!
Tickets in TattsLotto's $20 Million Superdraw on this Saturday 15 February are now on sale from all Tatts outlets and online from Tatts.com.
Why not add a Superdraw ticket to a Valentine's Day card for a loved one and give them the chance to share in $20 million?

With the acceleration, no doubt, will come a wave of advertising. In the upcoming months, the remodeling industry will try to sell you products and ideas with promises of quality and durability and even happiness. From your kitchen floor to your cabinets, you will be offered a seemingly endless variety of choices--a variety that can leave even the most industrious and organized homeowner feeling bewildered.
At MKBD, we believe less is more. We're all for bountiful options, and of course we pride ourselves on the quality of our work, the durability of our supplies.
When it's time to design your space, however, a little pruning can go a long way. One of the easiest ways to simplify your home remodeling project is to limit your choices. And the easiest way to limit (or, if you prefer, refine) your choices is by choosing a specific design style that suits you temperament.
If you're remodeling your kitchen, for example, you might choose a traditional or contemporary style--or, if you can't decide, you might choose a transitional design, with both traditional and contemporary elements combined.
|A contemporary kitchen with transitional elements in Richboro, PA
A Transitional Style
MKBD recently had the privilege of designing a contemporary kitchen with transitional elements for a busy family in Richboro, Pennsylvania. This unique blending of design styles created an attractive space for the family to meet and eat after a long day.
If you browse photos online, you're likely to confront some form of a transitional style in most kitchens. Transitional is the bridge between traditional and contemporary, between the warm, nostalgic kitchens of yesterday and the sleek, minimalist kitchens of today.
By blending elements of both styles, you can create a style uniquely suited to your family's personality. In the upcoming weeks, we will explore in more depth traditional and contemporary design, respectively. For now, however, we wanted to show you what a transitional kitchen can look like.
Clean, Seamless Design
One great advantage of the contemporary style is the focus on clean, simple lines. To achieve this look, we build the appliances into the cabinetry, creating a seamless, elegant look. Clean lines aren't simply about elegance, however. In a contemporary kitchen, efficiency is key, and clean lines promote ease-of-movement.
|Note how the appliances are built into the cabinetry, creating
a clean, uncluttered appearance.
|Clean lines mean ease-of-movement, too
Update a Traditional Style
One way to create a seamless transitional style is to take a traditional element and update it with contemporary features. We love the timeless look of Shaker cabinets with their flat-paneled doors and rail frames. However, for a subtle touch of the contemporary, in this project we added glass doors to some of the cabinets.
|Shaker cabinets with glass panels
We also love Shaker cabinets for their sturdy wood, often sourced locally to MKBD. We sourced these cabinets from Diamond Cabinetry, one of the top purveyors of fine cabinetry.
Transitional Materials
In this project, the customer wanted traditional materials that satisfy the contemporary appeal of simplicity. The wood Shaker cabinets painted white are the essence of traditional simplicity.
We also used black granite countertops--instead of quartz--to create a solid color palette. The grey backsplash is a traditional marble tile that offers subtle contemporary texture.
And of course, the wood floors are the essence of traditional, a perfect addition to this simple, elegant kitchen.
|Wood, quartz, and marble--transitional materials
Why MKBD?
We hope our website can provide you with all the information you might need about our company. If you're thinking about remodeling your kitchen or bathroom, please do not hesitate to call us: 215-355-4747.
Some homeowners choose to call a remodeling company only after they have spent countless hours researching their project. We're all for research, but including a home remodeling company at the very beginning of the exploration process can increase your chances of success. A remodeling company can guide you in your exploration, saving you time. A home remodeling company can also help you set reasonable parameters for your project.
How long might the project take to complete?
What are the best materials for your lifestyle?
And how about the cost?

miss america
A cursory listen tells you that Mary Margaret is a unique talent. How you respond to "unique" is pretty much up to you. One American reviewer described her as "Annie Hall with a lobotomy". I personally think she is an incredibly powerful performer, and the insinuation that she is simply "kooky" does her a great disservice - there is so much skill and control in both of these vocals, part-sung, part-spoken, part-scat. It's not just her "being a bit mad", it's a brave and emotional representation of a mind in a state of flux.
Mary Margaret O'Hara - Body's In Trouble
In the late 80s on British TV, TV-AM used to show a "pop video" at 5 to 8 every day - I'll never forget the look on Mike Morris' face after the video for "Body's In Trouble" was aired.
The song is about something universal - when your body lets you down, either through something physical or just because... "you just want to move somebody / a body won't let you" - there's some kind of barrier that stops you connecting - either physically or just through some kind of social conditioning. As the ageing process begins to take hold, I find more and more in this song!
Mary Margaret O'Hara signed to Virgin Records in 1984. She went into the studio with Andy Partridge of XTC, who left after only a day. Virgin only accepted 4 of the tracks she recorded and there followed 3 years of artistic stale-mate, which only ended when Michael Brook saw her live and offered to help mix and produce. "Miss America" is an album with a broad artistic palette, taking in jazz, country, torch-song, art-rock, shot through with Mary Margaret's unorthodox arrangements.
Mary Margaret O'Hara - When You Know Why You're Happy
UK reviews for the album were great, but it failed to chart. US reviewers, as mentioned above, were harsh. Unsurprisingly, Mary Margaret has kept her distance from the record industry ever since, apart from a few guest appearances and a 1991 Christmas EP (please get in touch if you have a copy!).
She seems to be concentrating on acting and stage work, recently appearing in The Black Rider by Robert Wilson, Tom Waits and William S Burroughs, which would have been amazing!
She recently released a soundtrack album to "Appartment Hunting", which the faithful see as the follow-up to "Miss America" (I haven't got a copy...yet!)
fun fact! - Mary Margaret O'Hara's sister is Catherine O'Hara, star of Home Alone, recently seen as "Mickey" (as in 'Mitch and Mickey') in A Mighty Wind.

from the original post's comments :
marc-o - "Partridge reckons his atheism didn't sit well with her devout Catholicism and that is what got him the sack.....mind you I've read many reports that he is 'difficult' to work with...mainly from his bandmates. When XTC worked with Todd Rundgren the situation was described as 'Two Hitlers/One Bunker'....I look forward to hearing these "
dickvandyke - "I see what ya saying steve... I suspect it sounds even better after being given the elbow by a woman, a subsequent hip flask of Jameson's and a big fat Woodbine.
I like marc-o's line about Partridge & Rundgren's head to head megalomania, but Swindon's Mr P can do little wrong in my book. Even as a jolly nice Catholic, I have a lot of time for his 'Dear God'.
Keep up the good work."
oxbow - "I don't actually hate this. Yes. I actually quite like it.
However, I am still of the opinion that her 'mental chick you met at college in the late 80's' style vocal inflections would drive me crazy over a whole album.
My thanks go out to you dear brother."

The Market Never Crashed in These West Side Neighborhoods
Posted by Dan Miller, REALTOR on Wednesday, February 6th, 2013 at 5:41am.
Home values on the near west side have weathered the real estate downturn like no other area of Madison. Classic west side subdivisions like the Hill Farms, Westmorland, Sunset Village, Nakoma, and Dudgeon-Monroe neighborhoods have always been in high demand, and will continue to be highly coveted in the years ahead.
Why is this side of town so popular? A large contingent of buyers prefers the construction from the early to mid 1900s, back when many local, highly-regarded architects left their imprint on Madison's real estate landscape . The near west side is also conveniently located near many of Madison's largest employers, including: UW Health, Meriter Hospital, St Mary's Hospital, the VA Hospital, CUNA Mutual, UW-Madison, and the State of Wisconsin. Last but not least, Madison's near west side neighborhoods are only a short bike or bus ride away from the many wonderful cultural, entertainment, and dining venues in the city's downtown area.
Amazingly, home values on Madison's near west side were only 3.8% lower in 2012 compared to the values from the peak year of 2008. Now, prices on this side of town are poised to move higher as the stabilization of the broader real estate market takes root.

On this particular live stream I played Baseball Stars 2, which was an arcade game released way back in 1992, exactly how this played in the arcade is beyond me. Still I manage to win a game during this live stream -- Watch live at https://www.twitch.tv/fredcasden
You know, as a kid, when I went to the arcades, I can't recall ever seeing Baseball-Stars 2 at any of the Neo-Geo cabinets, I remember a few fighting games and I think a racing game, but never this particular game. I also can't fully wrap my head around how a baseball game could be adapted for the Arcade, unless it was a quarter gobbler , having to put in a quarter after three outs or a certain amount of time (much like WWF Wrestlefest). But since this game is on Steam and I'm a PC gamer these days, I figure why not give it a whirl for a live stream over on Twitch instead of Star Trek Online. I have played a few games, and honestly wasn't good at batting, but pitching I held games close... so actually winning my first game on Twitch was a great surprise to myself (not to mention hitting a few homers!)
Now as a baseball game, it's perfectly okay, with the real highlight being batting and pitching, which is pretty solid. Fielding and baserunning is a whole other matter, even on 'easy' it can be a chore. Controls are for the most part responsive. Graphic wise, it looks like an arcade game from the early 90s, or a later stage SNES / Sega Genesis game. The music is repetitive and can grow to be distracting. Gameplay wise, this isn't any old rapid fire game, it's a freaking marathon as a single game takes about a half-hour (or at least with me playing it) which raises a ton of question about how the hell this did in the arcades, because playing two games back to back is a bit draining,
VERDICT: It's perfectly fine for what it is, it's nothing special, but its a game that you can play just to fill some time, like a good half-hour before moving on to something else.

A post-trial motion to acquit retired West Virginia State Police Sgt. George William Bradshaw III of a mail fraud conviction last month was denied Wednesday by U.S. District Judge W. Craig Broadwater.
After hearing arguments by Bradshaw's attorney, B. Craig Manford, and rebuttal from assistant U.S. Attorney Paul T. Camilletti, Broadwater concluded that he was satisfied the government had met a "three element test" applied in the case.
"I'm not going to say this was a perfect prosecution," said Broadwater, adding the government's case against Bradshaw wasn't "textbook" and that it did have some "warts."

In Calgary (Canada), a restaurant discounts the bill of customers whose children have been well-behaved
The Carino Japanese Bistro has found a solution to avoid badly behaved children in its establishment. The bistro, located in Calgary, Canada, has a small dining room with just 35 covers. Due to this small size, it is forced to offer customers an intimate, cosy atmosphere.
To do this, and also continue to welcome family groups, Carino had an innovative idea: they offer a five dollar discount to parents whose children have behaved well during their meal.
The discount comes up on the bill labelled 'well-behaved kids'.
This fun, slightly provocative offer has also gained the company good publicity when one customer who earned the discount took a photo and posted it on social network Reddit. The post was quickly picked up on Twitter and then in the Canadian and even international press.
The owner of the restaurant, Toshi Karino, explained his plan to Globalnews: "With the tables close together we wanted parents and children to feel comfortable without disturbing the meals of other customers." He also indicated a wish to be discreet with the offer, which must remain a gift, rather than a commercial operation. "We don't say anything. We don't do it to gain customers. We simply thank them on the bill.

Things continue to boil over in Europe.
On Wednesday, Italy's fiscal crisis worsened to the point they staged a media blackout. SBS informed viewers hoping to catch the Italian news that their Italian broadcasting partner had failed to submit anything. As if to mark the fall of Italy, SBS played sad opera music and weather maps instead.
Meanwhile, gold has snuck past the financial news, recovering from its recent poor performance. Is gold proving its metal in this time of financial uncertainty?
We finished last weekend's Daily Reckoning pondering how governments might ruin your gold investment. And promised to discuss how they might do it.
Some readers staged a pre-emptive strike, writing to tell us there is no need to write about the confiscation of gold. 'Government won't do it', they said, for all sorts of reasons. But they missed the point. As pre-emptive strikers often do…
It's not confiscation the average gold investor should worry about. After all, as another reader pointed out, we live in an Ineptocracy.
Ineptocracy (in-ep-toc'-ra-cy) – A system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of achieving, and where the members of society least likely to succeed or even to sustain themselves, are abundantly rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.
The Ineptocrats and their dependents have long figured out how to bleed others dry without confiscating gold. But there is another kind of risk gold owners face. One much more worth thinking (and reading) about.
It has to do with the Gold Matrix. Not the movie The Matrix, where a computer nerd comes to realise the world we live in is a computer program created by machines that now rule the earth. If it was about that Matrix, we'd write about people suddenly waking up to the reality that fiat money is a scam. That fractional reserve banking is a fraud. And that interest rate setting by a central bank causes the business cycle.
Maybe that's what it should be about.
Anyway, we mean the other kind of matrix – the mathematical one.
It looks like this:
Each number in the table represents one of four different scenarios you face as a 'non-American' gold investor in the future. You can insert your currency of choice in the top right-hand box, as long as it's not the US dollar.
Why do people who don't use US dollars to buy gold need a special matrix for their gold investments? Because gold is priced in US dollars. In order to obtain the gold price in a currency other than the US dollar, gold is first priced in US dollars and then converted to your currency. That means there is currency risk for non-US-dollar-based investors. This adds to the scenario of possible outcomes for gold investors. The value of their gold depends not only on the gold price, but also on the exchange rate. And governments are increasingly messing with exchange rates. In other words, governments can meddle with the value of your gold without actually meddling with the gold itself.
Let's go through each scenario in the matrix, step by step.
In Scenario 1, the Aussie dollar and gold both go up in value. (The Aussie measured in US dollars.) In this situation, the increase in the Aussie dollar will offset the gains in the US dollar gold price. If gold goes up more than the Aussie, the gold price in AUD will go up. And vice versa. So the net outcome is uncertain for Aussie gold buyers. Regardless of gold going up, their Australian dollar denominated asset could go either way depending on the move in the exchange rate.
Scenario 4 is similar. If gold and the Aussie dollar both go down, the price of your gold in Australian dollar terms depends on which goes down more. Australian dollar gold could go either up or down.
The remaining two scenarios are more conclusive. If the Aussie dollar goes down and gold goes up (Scenario 2), the Aussie dollar gold price will rise even faster than the US gold price. If the Aussie goes up and gold down (Scenario 3), Australian gold investors lose out on both counts.
Navigating the Matrix
What's interesting here is how likely each of these scenarios is to play out. And what kind of economic situation will lead to which scenario. Remember, gold is a macro play, meaning your decision to invest is probably based on how you expect the world economy to perform. So it's the economic situation that is relevant to gold investors.
Scenario 1 – Gold and AUD both go up
This scenario is likely to occur with high inflation in the US, coupled with an economic recovery around the world. Gold rises in price because people buy it to protect themselves from inflation – the buying power of an ounce of gold today is roughly the same as it was 5,000 years ago. The Aussie dollar is likely to rise if there is a recovery, as the world buys our resources when times are good. This creates demand for the Australian dollar, both to invest in us and to buy our resources. Whether gold or the Aussie rises more is hard to know. But, in real terms, an Australian gold investor will be better off, as their money and assets rise in value relative to other nations' currencies. Holidays overseas and online shopping would become cheaper for you.
Scenario 4 – Gold and the AUD fall
Mild deflation, or another financial crisis, is likely to cause this scenario. Gold will be in less demand during deflation and so will the Aussie dollar, so the price of both will fall. It is likely that gold will fall less than the Aussie in this situation, as gold is perceived safer than many assets when banks are struggling (which happens during deflation). This is probably the reason gold didn't collapse in 2008. As a commodity-based currency, the Aussie dollar would have much to lose in an economic downturn. People wouldn't want to buy our resources or invest in Australia. So in this scenario, the Aussie gold price may outperform other investments.
Scenario 3 – Gold down, AUD up
This is the worst-case scenario for Australian gold investors. Gold falling in price and the Australian dollar rising would crush the Australian dollar gold price. For this to happen, central bankers would have to pull off the greatest tightrope walk in history. Upside down. (Your editor used to teach people to tightrope walk. (Proving that those who can't do, teach.) We never saw anyone but a clown manage to do it upside down.) Anyway, it is safe to say this scenario is rather unlikely. Still, it's interesting to explore. A sizeable economic recovery, coupled with low inflation and the vanishing of crushing debt loads would see the demand for gold diminish. And the demand for Australia's dirt grow like only the Australian government's tax forecasts dare to hope for. It is the low likelihood of this scenario that makes gold buyers buy gold.
Scenario 2 – Gold up, AUD down
This is the best-case scenario for Australian gold buyers. The fall in the Aussie dollar will add to the gains in the gold price. Some inflation in the US combined with a slowdown in global economic growth would see this scenario happen. In other words, in order for this to happen money printers need to print money and unemployed construction workers need to stop building buildings. The two are usually linked in that the money printers are called into action when the builders stop building. Economists call such a scenario 'stagflation' – a combination of low growth, high unemployment and inflation.
Which scenario are you betting on?
Right now, foreign governments are doing their damndest to manipulate exchange rates. The US senate, for example, has put tariffs on Chinese goods as a retaliation for the Chinese policy of a devalued currency. The Japanese recently intervened to lower their currency and even the Swiss have been trying to lower theirs.
And as an Australian gold buyer, you need to watch these developments carefully. Will Australia join the so called currency wars? And will the Americans succeed in lowering the value of the US dollar?
One thing is clear. Currency manipulation could make or break your gold investment. But that manipulation is mostly hedged in buying gold. The US price of gold should go up about the same amount that the Australian dollar rises because of US currency devaluation. After all, the US dollar is being debased against both gold and the AUD at the same time. Similarly, if the Australian dollar falls, the Australian dollar gold price will hold up.
Gold is an excellent asset for Australians who agree with the idea that there will be inflation in indebted nations and tough times ahead for Australia. We're pretty sure all of the editors here at Port Phillip Publishing own gold bullion. But after its impressive rally since the Daily Reckoning first suggested it as the trade of the decade over a decade ago, is it still a good investment?
And if yes, should you go with bullion? Or stocks?

We are getting closer and closer to meeting our sweet little Hadley Mae.
Just over 5 weeks now.
Jack told me this AM he had a dream last night that I had the baby.
I hope she's early - the way she's been pressing on my lungs and making me so winded lately makes me a fairly lazy person these days.
Here's some of the gorgeous pics from the shower two weeks ago.
It was so much fun!
Until next time...

Alan Shepherd celebrated his return from duty in Afghanistan with a comfortable victory in the Start Fitness North Eastern Harrier League fixture at Wrekenton.
Despite a lack of training facilities while stationed abroad, the 36-year-old staff sergeant showed his liking for a cross-country course used for the first time and took full advantage of his generous handicap to come home over a minute clear of his nearest rival.
The four-times Army champion said: "Apart from sessions on a treadmill in the gymnasium for the past three months you can say my training has been near non-existent. It was hard work because it wasn't an easy course but now that I've got a race under my belt it should become much easier from now especially with an 18-month posting to Newcastle."
Alnwick's David Kirkland, giving Shephard two-and-a-half-minutes start, worked his way through to second place having closed the gap to 62 seconds at the finish.
Sunderland's Steve Coxon filled third spot, helping the Wearsiders to a runaway team success, a victory which puts them well on target to lift the Division One title.
Fittingly, Sunderland also had the fastest runner on view as Steve Potts, giving five minutes start to the race winner, worked his way through the 240-strong field to finish in 19th place overall having recorded an actual time of 31min 51secs for the 9.2-kilometre course.
The Army was also to the fore in the women's race with victory going to Wallsend's Danielle Hodgkinson.
The 21-year-old medic/PE instructor was on leave from her Aldershot base and, like Shepherd in the men's event, took advantage of being given a healthy start over most of her rivals.
"I love running for Wallsend but don't often get the chance since joining the Army," said the winner.
"I did enjoy it even though I found the hills quite tough. Unfortunately, I'm back down to Aldershot on Tuesday, so I won't be racing for Wallsend for a while."
Hodgkinson's two-and-a-half-minutes advantage was run down to a minute by Elvet Striders' Donna James who looked impressive as she posted the fastest time of the day.
James, like many of the 400 or so athletes who took part on what was a perfect day for racing, was full of praise for the course laid out and promoted by Saltwell Harriers.
"That was a true test for everyone," said James.

Francis tips Fraser-Pryce for sprint double
Stephen Francis, coach of the women's Olympic 100m champion Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, says Saturday's triumph has given her momentum and he has now tipped the Jamaican to win the sprint double.india Updated: Aug 06, 2012 14:38 IST
Stephen Francis, coach of the women's Olympic 100m champion Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, says Saturday's triumph has given her momentum and he has now tipped the Jamaican to win the sprint double.
Fraser-Pryce became the first woman in 16 years to win back-to-back sprint titles when she stormed to win the marquee event at the London Olympics in 10.75 seconds, reports CMC.
"The extra momentum and motivation that she has now will serve to let her do her best, and hopefully that will be good enough to get her another gold medal," Francis said of Fraser-Pryce, who beat World champion American Carmelita Jeter (10.78) and fellow Jamaican Veronica Campbell-Brown (10.81) for the title.
"I think she doesn't really have anything to lose for the 200m, so I think she will understand that she would have to perform a lot better from a technique point of view in the 200m if she is going to win it."
The 25-year-old did not contest the half lap at her debut Beijing Olympics four years ago or at the Berlin World Championships the following year, when she took gold in the 100m on both occasions.
However, she completed the double at the Jamaica Olympic Trials in June and has now trained her sights on a similar achievement at the 30th Olympiad in London.
She will begin her quest on Monday and Francis said judging from her performance in the 100m, it would take a lot to beat her.
"I think she can win. I think she can. You see how the 100m unfolded, the vast majority of the race, nobody couldn't hold her until she started to strain for the tape. They couldn't gain on her much," he pointed out.
"And I think it will be even better in the 200m, and as I said, technically she is going to be a lot better because she is going to be more a aware of what she should do in that race."
With Fraser-Pryce's triumph Saturday, she joined only two other women - both American - to repeat as Olympic 100m champions.
Wyomia Tyus was the first in 1964 and 1968 with Gail Devers following up in 1992 and 1996.
Francis said the 100m had been the pressure event and hinted that Fraser-Pryce could have been even more dominant.
"She came through it even though I think she made the race closer than what it was suppose to be," he said.

Creating CCSS-Aligned Curriculum in Grades 9-12
Creating CCSS-Aligned Curriculum in Grades 9-12 - Descarga este documento en PDF. Documentación en PDF para descargar gratis. Disponible también para leer online.
Journal for Leadership and Instruction, v13 n2 p24-31 Fall 2014
In Joe Crawford's last two articles, he examined the process of building standards-based curriculum documents to drive instruction in the K-8 environment. Continuing with this theme, this article explores "closing the loop" and following this work into the high school experience. There is one huge difference in the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) at the high school level. The CCSS are no longer organized by distinct grade level; the CCSS are now presented as high school (9-12) standards. Because of the various and sundry organizational patterns in high school math course work (and in ELA, for that matter), it is now important for the entire high school math (and ELA) department to work together to ensure adequate learning opportunities across the entire 9-12 spectrum of high school course work. The CCSS must be parsed out over the entire 9-12 math academic experience and spread among the various courses offered and experienced by students. This article takes the reader through the steps of a high school's overall study/review of Domains and standards in those Domains and deciding which specific high school courses will address which specific Domains and standards, using the Geometry Domain as an example. Then, it discusses the actual process of developing the end-of-year (Local CCS Standards or Priority Standards) and within-year (Instructional Objectives) expectations, continuing with the Geometry Domain example. The process as detailed in the article allows the reader to create useable, aligned, and articulated learning expectations that are proven to produce meaningful improvements in student performance.

A recent rehabilitation center development project in a region of Korea will open opportunities for Norwegian solution or product exporters.
In line with a series of elderly care industry development projects, Korea is initiating a Training Center for Leadership in the Rehabilitation Industry, mainly focusing on the growing elderly population. This training center will be supported by the central government until 2020 and Daegu University is coordinating the project with its key stake holders including the local government, the Gyeonbuk province and major hospitals.
Currently the project is at an early stage where the coordinator at the University is looking for potential partners for the development.
Opportunities for Norwegian companies
A robot rehabilitation company from Switzerland and an advanced comfort wheelchair company from Norway are in discussions and scheduled to have seminars with relevant audiences in spring 2017. Once a product is qualified for the long term training program at the center, it will be presented to partner hospitals and used for training the leaders of rehabilitation at hospitals and nursing homes.
The following can be candidate products or solutions for this joint collaboration:
- medical products for elderly care
- elderly care aids
- rehabilitation products or solutions
- training or educational service with related products in rehabilitation, etc.
Aging society
Korea is currently considered to be the world's fastest growing aging society in the world. For the last 60 years, Korea has been enjoying fast economic growth and it has improved the living standard and medical spending for healthcare.
However, the world's lowest birth rate for the last 10 years and the high class life expectancy are threatening the future society of Korea which needs to address the aging society with solutions for the growing elderly population.
Statistics in 2015 said that medical spending on people over 65 years of age is twice that of the other people in average. This means that the medical spending increase above was mainly driven by the fast growing elderly population. The elderly people over 65 in 2014 were 12.7%, while in 1994 it was only 5.7%. Korean national statistics say that it will be more than 20% by 2026.

The 'Somerset Children and Young People Survey' (SCYPS) is being commissioned by the Somerset Health and Wellbeing in Learning Programme to provide schools and colleges with a unique insight into the lives and experiences of young people. The survey, which will be completed by children and young people in National Curriculum Years 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 (including FE Colleges), will take place in March 2014. Containing age-appropriate questions, the survey is designed to gather information about children and young people's health-related behaviours, perceptions and understanding.
The experience of schools in other areas of the country has confirmed that participating in a health and wellbeing survey generates data that proves highly useful in their school development and planning. Additionally, it has provided evidence for Ofsted of pupil voice informing policy and practice leading to school improvement.
Somerset Public Health will use information from the survey to influence commissioning decisions targeting support in the areas where it is most needed, particularly for the most vulnerable children and families.
Comments from schools that have run the survey:
"As a Deputy Head in Bristol at a large secondary school I was involved in taking part in a city wide health and wellbeing survey over a period of six years. Completing the survey every two years grew in importance year on year, with the final cycle having a major impact on our SDP, PHSE curriculum, Ofsted outcomes and governor understanding.
Over the six year period we moved from a small sample in two tutor groups filling in a paper survey to two year groups completing an online survey. The reports produced give graphical analysis of a wide range of issues. As a result of the survey we increased the number of PSHE workshop days for students to address issues such as smoking, drug and alcohol awareness, anti-bullying workshops. The surveys helped Governors make a positive informed decision to allow Brook Advisory Clinic nurses on site to support students.
As a result of taking part and using the evidence provided we were able to offer more support for students which had a direct impact on improved attendance and outcomes."
Richard Berry - Principal, Sky College, Taunton
"….it gives us useful data to show us the impact of the strategies we use and informs us about the physical and emotional health and well-being of the children. It also helps us to plan for the future, allocate resources and budget appropriately."
Head Teacher, South Gloucestershire
"The survey helped us inform and shape our existing self-evaluation and school improvement procedures."
Head Teacher, BANES
"I like the way information was benchmarked against national figures. That was useful!"
Head Teacher, Surrey
The 2014 survey will run during the following two weeks:
Schools and colleges wishing to participate in the survey must register; registrations should be made before 3rd February 2014.
Expressions of interest are also invited from teachers who would like to apply to become Lead Teachers to support the team and the Somerset Children and Young People Survey - further information can be found here.
Training Dates:
We are inviting schools to participate in either one of two training sessions currently scheduled. Staff who attend will be given the opportunity to familiarise themselves with the survey and to explore the reporting tools. The dates for these training events are:
Tuesday 25th February 2014 - 2:00 pm to 4:30 pm at Long Sutton Golf Club
Wednesday 26th February 2014 - 2:00 pm to 4:30 pm at Junction 24, Bridgwater

A full audience packed Buxton's historic Devonshire Dome to see hair and beauty students from Buxton and Leek College compete against each other in their
second annual showcase event.
And there were some ghoulish creations on view as media make-up students competed for the first time with `Fright Night` among the 15 different categories. Trainees from the two college campuses were given just half an hour to interpret a theme in front of a panel of judges and the live audience to show off their skills in hair and makeup on a live model.
Guest judges included one of last year's winners – Laura Lines, who is now a self-employed hairdresser. She said: "I am more nervous judging the competition than I was last year when I took part and won the Avant Garde hair prize."
Judge Louise Godsil, from suppliers Ellisons, said: "There is so much effort that has gone into this competition and it's such a lovely atmosphere, we really wanted to award second and third prizes as well as first but each category can only have one winner.
"When you consider that some of the competitors are only 14, the skills that they are showing are just amazing."
Media make-up student, Ryan Bowles, 18, from Glossop won first prize for his ghoulish creation of a zombie modelled on his sister, Ashley. He said: "I'm not a very confident person and I was so convinced I hadn't won, I was going to go home early. I'm really enjoying creating special effects with make-up though and I'm aiming to go on to Uni to further my training."
Another student from Stockport, Anna Smith aged 22, won the Level 3 Hair competition for her pure creative fantasy creation on an underwater theme. She said: "It's a bit of a different take on a mermaid; I've gone for a fish theme and am very happy and excited to win. I couldn't have done it without my employers at Blakes - The Art of Hair in New Mills backing me."
Level 2 Hair student Emma Stockley from Forsbrook took the prize for her `Colours of the Season' hair creation featuring a `summer queen` look. She said: "I am really happy and did not expect to come away a winner."
Competitions winners were announced at the end of the event by Karen Wardley, head of curriculum for Hair and Beauty, and presented with their prizes by College Principal Len Tildsley:
Level 1 Hair – Front Cover of a Magazine – Emily McPhee
Level 1 Beauty – Day Make up- - Danielle Graham
Year 11 – Twisted Ways – Emma Davison
Year 10 – Disney in the Dome – Chloe Swift
Level 2 Beauty – Bridal Make Up – Courtney Barraclough
Level 2 Beauty – Prom Look – Sammy Mellor
Level 2 Hair – Period Hair – Georgina Goldstraw
Level 2 Hair Apprenticeship – Commercial Cut and Colour – Naomi Redfern
Level 2 Hair – Miss World – Francesca Biasi
Level 2 Hair – Colours of the Season – Emma Stockley
Level 2 Barbers – Freestyle Hair Tattoo – Joshua Fenton
Level 3 Nail Services – Avant Garde Shabby Chic – Milly Lewis
Level 3 Media Make Up – Fright Night – Ryan Bowles
Level 3 Hair – Pure Creative Fantasy – Anna Smith

The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that all children see an orthodontist by at least age seven and sooner if something is obviously wrong before age seven. Fortunately, most young patients don't need anything more than observation while the permanent teeth are growing into place.
Many young patients have problems, which will not, or should not wait. Most orthodontic problems are inherited and cannot be totally prevented; however something can usually be done before these problems become more difficult and more expensive to manage.
It is advisable to consult with an orthodontist prior to having your dentist remove any baby teeth or permanent teeth. To ensure the best overall dental and facial development, all patients should have an orthodontic consultation sometime between the ages of four and seven.
Dr. Bock offers early examinations and observation consultations. Contact us to schedule a complimentary consultation.
The classification of bites is divided into three main categories: Class I, II, and III. This classification refers to the position of the first molars, and how they fit together.
|Class I
Class I is a normal relationship between the upper teeth, lower teeth and jaws or balanced bite.
Class I normal
Class I crowding
Class I spacing
Class II
Class II is where the lower first molar is posterior (or more towards the back of the mouth) than the upper first molar. In this abnormal relationship, the upper front teeth and jaw project further forward than the lower teeth and jaw. There is a convex appearance in profile with a receding chin and lower lip. Class II problems can be due to insufficient growth of the lower jaw, an over growth of the upper jaw or a combination of the two. In many cases, Class II problems are genetically inherited and can be aggravated by environmental factors such as finger sucking. Class II problems are treated via growth redirection to bring the upper teeth, lower teeth and jaws into harmony.
Class II division 1
Class II division 2
Class III
Class III is where the lower first molar is anterior (or more towards the front of the mouth) than the upper first molar. In this abnormal relationship, the lower teeth and jaw project further forward than the upper teeth and jaws. There is a concave appearance in profile with a prominent chin. Class III problems are usually due to an overgrowth in the lower jaw, undergrowth of the upper jaw or a combination of the two. Like Class II problems, they can be genetically inherited. Class III problems are usually treated via surgical correction of one or both jaws.
Class III functional or dental
Class III skeletal
Upper front teeth protrude
Deep bite
Upper front teeth cover lower front teeth too much
Lower front teeth protrude
Open bite
Back teeth are together with space between the front teeth
Upper and/or lower teeth are crowded
Excess Spacing
There is excess space between teeth
Mid-Line Misalignment
Mid-lines of upper and lower arches do not line up
Upper back teeth fit inside lower teeth
Phase I: Treatment usually takes 12 to 18 months and is done between the ages of 7-9. A variety of appliances may be used to correct specific problems.
Maintenance / Recall Phase: During the time between the first and second phase the patient will be seen every few months per year. This is to monitor the eruption of the permanent teeth and exfoliation of primary teeth.
Phase II (if required): During the first phase of treatment Dr. Bock has no control over 16 unerupted permanent teeth. If they grow in and problems still exist, further treatment, known as Phase II, will be required. A separate fee will be quoted at that time. Treatment usually takes 12-24 months.
Full Treatment: If you decide to wait, treatment will be started when all permanent teeth have erupted. Full treatment usually takes 18-30 months. The length of treatment depends on the severity of malocclusion and orthodontic problems.
Brushing and flossing your teeth can be challenging when wearing braces but it is extremely important that you do both consistently and thoroughly.
Foods to Avoid During Treatment: Eating proper foods and minimizing sugar intake are essential during orthodontic treatment. Your braces can be damaged by eating hard, sticky, and chewy foods.
Hard Foods
Soft Foods
Dental floss comes in a variety of colors, materials and even flavors. Waxed varieties slide through the teeth, allowing people with extremely tight spaces to floss more easily. Popular flavors of floss include wintergreen and cinnamon. Waxed floss does tend to fray more than unwaxed floss.
A type of material called dental tape can be effective for people with large spaces between their teeth, or for people with bridge work.
Floss can be purchased in small self-dispensing boxes. Floss can also be purchased in special, single-use holders, which are useful for people who have a hard time wrapping floss around their fingers, including those with dexterity problems or arthritis.

I just learned this morning that an acquaintance of Little Man was excused from school to play in a hockey tournament in P.E.I.
I think it's great that the young man is involved in extra curricular activities. My only thought at this point is, is he not a bit young to be taken out of school for this sort of thing? Does this happen a lot with students in elementary school?
I just can't support this act. My thought is education should come first. What happens if the young person is injured. I have read a few news reports of sport injuries occurring in young people that are not able to heal as easily as we would like to think. Could that not create a lifelong problem for the young person.
With the strong focus on sports, are they lacking in other areas of life, reading, writing and arithmetic?
What happens if the parents or guardians have invested all of this time and money and it turns out that the young player is not really that good? If their education is lacking, how will they support themselves later?
Not to mention the time off work with the loss pay.
I just cannot understand that level of commitment to something that takes away from education.
Maybe someone else with experience can explain.

Four years ago, Andy Murray defeated Roger Federer to capture the gold in London, then went on to win his maiden Grand Slam title a few weeks later. Will history repeat itself this summer? In any case he started well his quest to US Open title number 2 with a clean win over tricky Lukas Rosol:
World number 84 Kyle Edmund, playing his first US Open's main draw, records the biggest win of his career so far, to beat Richard Gasquet in straight sets 6-2 6-2 6-3.
"I'm obviously extremely happy. I was just in the moment for that match, and I'm enjoying it. The crowd were incredible and I didn't expect this much support, but I'm happy I was able to give back some really good tennis."
He will now face wild card Ernesto Escobedo ranked 201.
As for Gasquet, who had a 6-weeks injury break, he announced he wasn't sure to take part to the Davis Cup semifinals early September.
"I'm not sure I could do worse. I knew to come to this tournament would be tough for me. I need matches, I need practice, I need to recover, I need to feel better mentally. I'm not in great form at all."

So the vlog is finally up on my YouTube Channel. For those who don't know, myself, Maria and Sean went to pay Elliott a visit for his birthday weekend. We had loads of fun especially with the semi nice weather we had and how can you not have fun in Aberystwyth?! If you're ever down there, make sure you experience the nightlife. For a small town, it sure knows how to party!
Today was such a great day, I was working for a mining conference in London and I got all the perks! Free breakfast and lunch and glass of wine to finish my shift off. What an awesome bunch of people they were! I'm always reluctant to tell you the company name or event just because they might not appreciate me talking about the conference or giving away freebies….so that's why I'm not telling you everything in detail.
Now we're having a cute movie night watching Homeward Bound and eating ice-cream. What a perfect way to end the day!

Maruchan Instant Lunch Chicken Flavor Ramen Noodles Product Review
I was on a mission to shed my baby fat that I experienced acquired whilst becoming expecting. I was nearly back again to my regular excess weight but could not appear to get there. I hate diet pills and I did not feel like starving myself.
In mission 3, your goal is a shipping driver that is scheduled to provide a big items to a close by ramen. Your goal is the fourth driver who is not wearing a hat.
My preferred brand of vegetable inventory arrives from Frontier. Frontier brand name is sometimes available in grocery shops, but is mainly discovered in well being food stores or natural cooperatives like North Farm. Fortunately, I discovered that Amazon does sell Frontier goods. Frontier also tends to make other wholesome broths and soups. I purchase the one pound bag of powdered broth and it lasts for quite some time.
Shop at the Greenback Store - Don't neglect to shop at the Dollar Shop or one of comparable shops throughout the nation. When I was unemployed, I used to get canned goods, cleansing provides, toilet paper, paper towels, spices, fruit juice, milk and tons of other products at my local Dollar Store. With costs being $1 or cheaper, you can frequently get groceries and other items at fifty%25 the cost of your nearby supermarket. Plus, don't really feel bad about going, When I used to store there I was always surprised at how numerous BMWs had been parked in the parking lot. Rich individuals conserve money as well.
In mission seven, 1 of our informers who have website infiltrated the team has been caught. He will be executed tonight. The gang ideas on throwing him into the lake. Issue is, our informer can't swim. In purchase to save him, initial shoot the rope that is linked from the tugboat to the barge and disconnect it. Subsequent, aim for the stickman on the far right at the leading of the bridge pointing a gun at our informer and consider him out! He will knock more than our informant and he will land safely into the barge of trash. This mission is quite hard. You have to be quick. It took me fairly awhile to move it!
It's a small cafe, no more than twelve seats, operated wholly by a center-aged couple. The ba-chan (affectionate Japanese for "auntie," which is what I called her following a few months of being a regular at the cafe) remembers the name of each single worldwide pupil who's at any time been to Happo. That's well over a hundred names! The ji-chan (affectionate Japanese for, you guessed it, "uncle," which is what I known as him after, you guessed it again, a couple of months of becoming a regular at the cafe) does all the cooking while Ba-chan chats with the guests.
It would be nice to celebrate Sake Working day this Oct. 1 with sake followers all around the world. Sake Day celebrates the start of the fall sake brewing season. Although sake is celebrated primarily in Japan, it is not limited to that country. Hope you have fun attempting something new. Kanpai!

The Power of No: Saying No to OprahNo. What a powerful word! How do you feel about saying "no" in some situations? I notice that saying "no" to certain people can often be challenging for me. I remember it was incredibly difficult for me when I was younger, and it's still hard for me today, as an adult. Sometimes I find myself saying "yes" when "no" would really be more authentic. Do you ever feel the same way?
Today, I had to decline an incredible offer from O, The Oprah Magazine. I was asked to participate in a follow up photo shoot in New York City - yes, a second opportunity with Oprah, as I have shot for the magazine previously in 2009.
|Getting the news of my second opportunity to shoot with O, The Oprah Magazine
However, I have a very important meeting for my shoe line, Lauren Lorraine, scheduled on the same day as the shoot, and I feel it would be irresponsible for me to miss this important meeting. But how could I say "no" to Oprah and her magazine, all about living your best life? Wouldn't most girls cancel everything and jump at the opportunity to fly to New York for a fabulous photo shoot for a magazine that garners 16 million readers ever month? I want to say "yes!" What an incredible opportunity - again!
|My first shoot with O, The Oprah Magazine
|Lauren Jones in O, The Oprah Magazine
Why is saying "no" so challenging? For me, it comes down to a few things. I become anxious that people will get upset or disappointed if I say "no." I feel I might miss an opportunity. I'm also not a huge fan of hearing "no" myself, so being the one saying it can often be challenging. I consider myself to be a "yes" person and pride myself on being open minded, willing, and ready to say "yes", especially when I see a great opportunity - like Oprah calling me for a photo shoot in New York! "No" sometimes seems like a failure, weakness, or, overall, just negative.
Saying "no", however, is an important aspect to living a balanced and authentic life. Our ability to say "no" with confidence can allow us to have peace and feel powerful over our life decisions. "No" is not about being negative, but is rather about creating healthy boundaries, honoring ourselves, and sometimes even honoring other commitments we have made previously.
Feeling overwhelmed or stressed can often be a reflection that you haven't said "no" when you needed to. When we don't say "no" in an authentic way we often end up feeling burdened, resentful, and even victimized (even when we are responsible, having said "yes" in the first place).
Saying "no" has real consequences and we may even upset or disappoint others. We may even be disappointed ourselves! We may also have a significant amount of fear about saying "no" to certain people, like our boss or a friend, or in certain situations, such as at work or with clients, or, I don't know, when Oprah comes calling?
However, there is power in using "no" to your benefit. Being able to confidently, and kindly, say "no" can create freedom - and may even open up the possibility for other opportunities. Most importantly, being able to say "no" with honesty and compassion, we are actually honoring and appreciating ourselves.

Some days are busier and run more unexpectedly than others. Today on my way to Queen's Park I met Minister Mathews, and had a conversation with her and her staff members. Then I was asked by NDP staff if I wanted to go to question period--they got me a pass. I turned my "tooautistic" t-shirt inside out (signage supporting interest groups is not allowed inside Queen's Park, though they would have no qualms with someone wearing a "Nike" shirt in the halls of power -ed), and off I went though security and the metal detector, into the legislative hall. Because of all the atmosphere and the beautiful surroundings it felt like a theater. The set is a beautiful hall; there is an audience; some of the the actors on the floor are wearing costumes; there are certain rules and ceremony, as well as drama and emotions and gestures. Over all it was quite civil. I think, though, that the air of civility was helped allong by presence of the children. The eight-graders dressed up in little suits were sitting by the feet of the speaker and standing when he was standing, and the other half of them were running here and there, bringing the papers from desk to desk, and fetching glasses of ice water for the members. (The kids are called "Pages"-ed)
Among many other questions, Minister Mathews was answering questions about closing the Geneva Centre for a week due to some budgetary mess-up. In her answer she included a suggestion that we triple funding for autism. She then cited the "we feel for the families" mantra I have heard and read many times before. She promised to look further into the issue. Premier McGuinty was asked about closing emergency rooms in Fort Erie and southern Ontario. He said it was done to "improve the services", because they will be opening 24/7 emergency care centers. The opposition answered that government rushed with closing the emergency rooms before they finished their own study if it would really improve the services. The Premier repeated the same message that closing emergency rooms will improve the services and they went to the next issue.
It was all very educational and interesting for me. The questions and answers felt a bit like a tennis match. It is difficult for me to discern which issues are dealt with promptly in a proper manner, and which ones are being ignored or pushed aside.
This is a picture of the farmers' market in front of the Queen's Park. It was a happy celebration of Ontario harvest time, with musicians, the smell of beef on a bun, and lots of great local produce.

Lucknow: What students bring to school? The list will shock you!
Published in Senior Living Features
Razor, trimmer, shaving foam, cigarette, lighter, chisel blade, i-pod, mobile phone, ultra slim laptop, porn magazine and gutkha pouch.
Nothing seems unusual in the list, until you are told that the seized articles have been found in bags of students of prominent schools in Lucknow.
Random surprise checks were carried in a few schools on Friday and Saturday, three days after a Class 1 boy of Brightland School was allegedly stabbed by a senior girl student of the same school.
While the school principal, who was sent to jail for hiding the incident from police for over 24 hours, is out on bail, the suspect girl is also back home on interim bail after spending 24 hours in the juvenile home.
Alarmed with the shocking incident, schools in Lucknow are taking preventive measures.
"We were shocked to find that students of Class 9 bring pornography magazine with a brown cover and a label of science subject. We also found packets of cigarette and lighters from bags of several boys. These things have been confiscated and notices issued to their parents," said a teacher of an all-boys educational institution.
Some of the boys even brought razors, shaving foams and trimmers.
"When confronted, they said their parents do not allow them to shave at home so they bring such items to school and use them before leaving for home," said a teacher, not willing to be named.
The checking of bags was also carried out at a prestigious all-girls educational institution 15 minutes before interval.
The students were asked to leave the class while teachers checked their bags. Scissors, blade, nail polish, lipsticks and perfumes were some of the common items that were found from their bags.

"Many of them had brought I-pods and mobile phones, too. They have been seized," said a teacher.
Most of the schools have banned bringing mobile phones to classrooms after the Gurgaon school incident, where a boy was allegedly killed by a senior so that exams could be deferred.
However, the surprise checks have revealed that students are flouting rules with impunity.
Now, the schools want parents to check the school bags of their wards.
"It is difficult for us to check the bags of 2,500 students daily. But, parents can at least check bags of their wards before they come to school. It is not difficult for them," said a principal of a school affiliated with the CBSE board.
A principal of a co-educational school in Lucknow's Aashiana area said, "One of the students had brought a mobile phone hidden in a school diary, assuming that it won't come under the teachers' scanner. We have informed his parents about it."

Color Demosaicing by Estimating Luminance and Opponent Chromatic Signals in the Fourier Domain
Color Demosaicing by Estimating Luminance and Opponent Chromatic Signals in the Fourier Domain - Descarga este documento en PDF. Documentación en PDF para descargar gratis. Disponible también para leer online.
Presented at: IS&T;/SID 10th Color Imaging Conference, Scottsdale, AZ, Nov. 2002 Published in: Proc. IS&T;/SID 10th Color Imaging Conference, vol. 10, p. 331-336 Publication date: 2002
We propose a new method for color demosaicing based on a mathematical model of spatial multiplexing of color. We demonstrate that a one-color per pixel image can be written as the sum of luminance and chrominance. In case of a regular arrangement of colors, such as with the Bayer color filter array (CFA), luminance and chrominance are well localized in the spatial frequency domain. Our algorithm is based on selecting the luminance and chrominance signal in the Fourier domain. This simple and efficient algorithm gives good results, comparable with the Bayesian approach to demosaicing. Additionally, this model allows us to demonstrate that the Bayer CFA is the most optimal arrangement of three colors on a square grid. Visual artifacts of the reconstruction can be clearly explained as aliasing between luminance and chrominance. Finally, this framework also allows us to control the trade-off between algorithm efficiency and quality in an explicit manner.

I was reading through my usual go-to website for news and entertainment and caught an article that had a slide show of "Daddy Confessions." Reading through it got me thinking about what I like about being a mom. And of all the little anecdotal things I could write about I want to write about how it has changed me for the better. I want them to know this when they get older and consider becoming parents.
I want to preface this by saying something I have whole-heartedly believed since forever. NOT EVERYONE SHOULD HAVE KIDS. There it is. There's always societal pressure especially on newly wed couples. The next logical step is kids right? I know that was the first time I felt the pressure. And within a few months of tying the knot, I was pregnant with Felix. I was never even sure before then that I wanted kids. But all of a sudden, I got married at 25, had already had minor surgery on my cervix and felt like, now was the time.
I knew as soon as I started trying that I had made the right decision. I was totally at peace with it and couldn't wait to get a positive test. I knew it could take months and even years, but for me, it took less than a week. We started trying and I never got another period. This was both scary and exciting. I couldn't believe how much my life was changing. I had found someone who wanted to be with me in the closest way two people can, and now we were going to have a family. It was a huge change from the lonely person I had been less than 12 months prior.
But that's just it…had my loneliness driven my choices? Had my priorities just shifted with age? Both? At the time I didn't think anything of it. Even when I decided to have Fiona I still hadn't thought of what drove me. Baby fever, and the want for a girl. A deep seated longing for a family of my own, something I had never known growing up as an only child of a single mother. Looking back I think it has been mostly the latter. I have made every decision in life with this notion in the back of my mind of a normal American family with two parents, a dog and a couple of kids.
That being said, knowing now what I have done and why, I still wouldn't change it. Partially because it's still what I want…the American Dream. But also, because my decision to become a mother is one of the best I've ever made. My children have changed me. I have more patience, I have more energy, I have a better appreciation of myself as a person watching what I accomplish with my kids every day. I have a greater capacity to love and to be loved in a way that is different from any other kind of love. The unconditional love between a mother and her child. I have experienced deeper love and deeper pain and deeper appreciation, deeper understanding, and deeper compassion that I ever could have in life without having my children.
They have made me a better more well-rounded person. They have forever changed my world in ways that it never could have without them. I am richer in almost every way because of them and for that I will be forever grateful of the opportunity to do the hardest and most rewarding job ever: raise them.
