My favorite part was when Barney helped Baby Bop do the dishes after the party and Barney told Baby Bop thank you because she invited him to the party. Barney was using good manners. Barney reminds me of my grandma because she has good manners. I think it is important to have good manners at home and at school because people like polite people.
I've seen a Barney movie at my home and I liked it. I have seen other Barney books, too. I think everyone would like this story. Kids would REALLY like it.

Weston Democrat
Dr. A. H. Kunst
Succeeds Superintendent Stathers at the Hospital for the Insane.
The New Board of Directors Meet at Weston and Elect Officials of that Institution. Some
Surprises to the Public as a Result of Combinations Among Directors.
Several Old Officers Retained.
June 8, 1901
Dr. A. H. Kunst
Succeeds Superintendent Stathers at the Hospital for the Insane.
The New Board of Directors Meet at Weston and Elect Officials of that Institution. Some Surprises to the Public as a Result of Combinations Among Directors.
Several Old Officers Retained.
The first meeting of the Board of Directors for the West Virginia Hospital for the Insane at Weston, under Gov. White's administration, convened here on Tuesday with a full Board present. The Directory is now composed of the following persons: Alex McVeigh Miller, Alderson; B. D. Gibson, Charlestown; B. W. Foster, Huntington; C. A. Swearinger, Parkersburg; Amos Bright, Sutton; R. T. Lowndes, Jr, Clarksburg; C. H. Milan, Worthington; C. H. Scott, Elkins, and J. S. Vandervort, Weston. In the organization Mr. Miller was made president and Charles W. Moore, of Clarksburg, secretary.
At the roll call all responded, and the first afternoon was spent rather informally - most of the time being occupied in looking about the buildings with a view of getting some idea of the inside workings of the great inistitution [sic] with which many of the members were entirely unfamiliar. They now realize its magnitude and it is to be hoped that they will give to its management the benefit of their best talent and experience in business affairs.
The Institution needs the constant and vigilant attention of its Board of Directors, as it is in a business point of view as well as in its more delicate capacity of a humanitarium, the most important and extensive public institution within the State.
Within the past history of the Hospital we find the names of some of our most eminent physicians, who have been in charge of its administrative affairs and the Board should not allow the usefulness of this institution to lessen, but as time brings us improvements in modern science, we should be given the benefit of the changes.
With this or some similar object, no doubt in view, the Board on Wednesday morning proceeded to the election of a Superintendent, and the first ballot being examined it was found that Dr. A. H. Kunst had receive a unanimous call. It was generally understood that his appointment would conform to the wishes of Gov. White, and the Board therefore complimented him by a full vote.
There were several applications for assistant physicians. The re-election of Dr. R. H. Fetty, one of the present assistants, was next taken up. Dr. Fetty had no hope, or his friends at least, for the reason that Dr. Kunst, being a Lewis county citizen, another appointment of a resident of the same county upon the medical staff was not likely to occur, and it did not. Dr. W. H. McCauley, of Braxton county, came well fortified with testimonials and recommondations [sic] and his friends urged his claims in person. He proved a winner and his appointment is regarded as one of the best the Board could have made. He has been most successful in his large practice at home and only consented to become an applicant for the position here in order to avoid so much horseback riding incident to the practice in his home county. His friends speak most favorably of him as a physician and a gentleman. He is a married man, but we understand that his wife, who is engaged in the millinery business at Sutton, will not come to Weston to live.
Dr. Perry and Dr. Bullard, the lady physician, were each retained in their present position, as was also Mrs. McIntyre, the Matron.
Mr. Morris, who has been performing the duties of Clerk, since the resignation of Mont Topping, was asked to step aside for a Mr. Howard Post, of Harrison county, who was elected. He was not here, but his friend Lowndes looked after his interests.
Another of the surprises and a condition brought about as a result of combinations, was the overthrow of the treasurer of the Hospital, D. M. Bailey, Cashier of the Citizens Bank, the rejection of all other aspirants for the place, and the substitution of J. S. Vandervort, the local director.
The power of the new Superintendent has been very much enlarged with authority to appoint and discharge many of the subordinate officials and employes, His term of office begins July 1st when Dr. Stathers will retire.

This 23-year-old Houston, Tex., wizard is the football players' football player and rated as one of the most polished performers in the business. He does everything well, but his forward passing is something the fans rave about—and so do his appreciative teammates on the champion Green Bay Packers. In fact this six-foot-one, 190-pound, former Purdue star blazed into fame when he paced an all-star college team and out-passed the famed Slingin' Sammy Baugh of the crack Washington Redskins in 1938. Last year, his second with the Packers, Isbell whipped 73 successful passes—eight for touchdowns—for a gain of 749 yards in 103 tries.
It seems strange to see a quarterback wearing #66, but this picture was obviously taken in the pre-season, when players seemingly wore whatever jersey the equipment manager had handy. Isbell wore #17 throughout his career in blue, as seen in this photo of Isbell and Hutson taken at the All-Star Game on August 29, 1940:
This is Curly Lambeau's classic blue and gold uniform, introduced in 1937. The sock stripes were removed after a few seasons, although it's hard to establish exactly when, as many players of the late 1930s/early 1940s seemed to have eschewed the full socks altogether (at least in the warmer months). In this photo from Wrigley Field, we have one Packer wearing striped socks and Isbell (with the ball) wearing no blue socks at all, only the low whites:
The bare-leg fashion seems to have passed by the mid-1940s, and when socks returned as a permanent part of the uniform they were solid navy, as seen in this 1947 photo:
The stripes would make an appearance on the 1994 throwbacks:
Isbell himself is an underappreciated part of Packers history. Drafted out of Purdue in 1938, he took the league by storm. As the caption notes, he led his team to a surprise win over the Redskins in the 1938 College All-Star Game (which at the time featured the best college athletes against the reigning NFL champions).
Isbell had just as much success in the pros, gradually taking the passer role over from Arnie Herber. He platooned with Herber for the first three years of his career in the "Notre Dame box" formation. This allowed Lambeau to use him as either a passer or a rusher - he led the Packers in rushing in 1938 and 1939, and the entire NFL in rushing average in 1938. As a passer, he led the league in attempts, completions, passing yards and touchdowns in 1941, and completions, yards and touchdowns in 1942.
The 1942 season was to be his last - Isbell only played five years with the Packers before retiring from pro football at 28. He later explained "I saw Lambeau go around the locker room and tell players like Arnie Herber that they were done. I vowed it would never happen to me." Having left on his own terms, Isbell returned to his alma mater as a coach. He has been selected to the NFL's 1930s All-Decade Team despite only playing his rookie and sophomore seasons in the 30s.
Although Isbell was inducted into the Green Bay Packers Hall of Fame in 1972, his short career has led him to be largely, and unjustly, forgotten by football fans. Had Isbell continued to play in blue and gold, he may well have followed Baugh into Canton.

VIDEO: Unheard stories of the unsung heroes working to save India's tigers
Every year a number of frontline staff lose their lives while protecting India's natural heritage.
They often face better-armed poachers, and other threats including wild animals themselves.
To ensure the welfare of the guardians of the wild, IFAW-WTI runs a unique accident insurance plan for the frontline staff, providing them and/or their families quick relief in case of injuries or death on duty.
Also on IFAW.org: Death of elephant tusker Satao in Tsavo must not have been in vain
Around 20,000 frontline staff from over 23 Indian states are registered under this insurance plan, and since its launch in 2001, more than 110 families have gratefully received its benefits.
The video below tells the story of a family of one frontline staff member, Ram Singh Dhubre, who worked as a daily wage labourer with the Kanha Tiger Reserve Forest Department.
Dhubre was killed in an accident on duty in December 2012 and his family was provided with relief from the insurance plan.
Your support helps keep this insurance program running, consider a donation to IFAW today.

Accordance vs BibleWorks
Posted 10 July 2012 - 04:33 AM
I'm getting ready to do a trial of BibleWorks, but I've been reading some very good things about Accordance. Can anyone point me to a list of advantages of Accordance over BibleWorks?
I've only ever used PCs, and I don't think I would like the disadvantages of using an emulator. If I were to buy a Mac laptop, what would be the advantages of Accordance over BibleWorks?
Here's what I've heard so far:
1. a much easier interface for searching
2. powerful "amplifying" from any selected word or phrase to any other resource in Accordance
3. a broader range of texts, commentaries and other study aids [I could also get this with Logos]
4. parallel panes which scroll together [also available on BW & Logos], cross highlight, dynamic interlinear, etc. [what is a dynamic interlinear?]
5. powerful analytic charts and lists for any search results
6. easily customizable purchases
I really don't want to any Mac v PC polemics. I'm also wondering if there are specific advantages of BibleWorks over Accordance, if this can be discussed without rancor.
I'm not really interested in subjective preferences, but more objective observations, eg, this type of search can be done on Accordance but not on BibleWorks.
Thanks for your time!
Posted 10 July 2012 - 08:29 AM
To address your question in point 4 below, a dynamic interlinear is a customizable interlinear not limited to a static page. In other words, it's a interlinear that takes advantage of various and sundry bits of information—including, but not limited to morphological tagging, lemma, grammar, gloss, english translations, ancient versions—and aggregates and formats this information into, while making it easily readable, a user-friendly interlinear. Here a few screen shots:
Some options are contingent upon what exists in your library:

As you select various options, you alter the appearance of the text, like so:
[attachment=2076:Screen Shot 2012-07-10 at 6.17.11 AM.png]
I'll let others comment on your other questions.
Posted 10 July 2012 - 09:52 AM
Accordance, like BibleWorks is incredibly powerful and customizable.
If you are doing scholar level work ( which it sounds like ) then I think you need to hear from those here who do the same type work.
So forth and so on.
For instance, I am a Parish Priest, thus my work is more in prep for sermons, teaching classes etc along with my personal growth, thus I use Accordance in a certain way. However, there are many here who use Accordance far and away much closer to it's true potential in Original Language studies and as a research tool.
My "guess" is that it is those more in the Academic world that you need to hear from.
One thing I will say is this: The UI and learning curve is much more fluid in Accordance than Bibleworks. Workflow ( for me) was much easier to establish because of this. Incredibly powerful software that does not lend itself to "easy memory" of workflow should be a thing of the past, sadly we often find that is not the case.
Reporting on that is always "somewhat" subjective, however, we do know some things about human interactions that we did not understand ten years ago.
Accordance has done a better job in this area than Bibleworks in my opinion. It's just easier to "remember" how to get around and set up your workflows and, remember "how" you set it up.
With that, I leave you to the true Academics.
Grace and Peace
Posted 10 July 2012 - 10:49 AM
Rusty, thanks for your question and comment about ease of use, I am mostly interested in direct study of the original texts and early translations, especially the LXX and the use of the Jewish Scriptures in the New Testament. Targums, Mishnah, and the Talmud are all of interest. Syntactic searches would be extremely interesting but this is a difficult area to discuss, with competing terminologies. What I can't do in BibleWorks, assuming I stay in the PC world, I may add on to the free Logos engine and purchase of some of their syntactic databases. Not sure how well this would work, actually, but it is something I am very interested in hearing about.
Posted 10 July 2012 - 11:11 AM
I am a pastor rather than academic scholar, but I used BibleWorks for years, and have now been using Accordance for a little over a year. I would say that the power and capabilities of the two are very similar. I have not found much that I want to do that can be done in one but not the other. Some things I prefer in the way BibleWorks does things, but many things I prefer the way they are done in Accordance. Since this is an Accordance forum, but you asked for some BibleWorks advantages, I will let others give you Accordance advantages and will mainly focus on BibleWorks advantages. They are:
- Cost. It is much less expensive to get a robust set up of original language texts, lexical resources, grammars, and English texts in BibleWorks than either Accordance or Logos. However, BibleWorks has a philosophy that limits the amount of resources available. What you get is excellent and very inexpensive, but many resources available in Accordance simply are not (and probably never will be) available in BibleWorks.
- Export capabilities. BibleWorks is miles ahead here. They give you the ability to set up multiple export configurations that can be saved, and the things you can configure are more robust. However, this is more of a convenience thing, since you can always do the formatting after the sport is completed. Time consuming and repetitive, but it can be done.
- It runs on a PC. My honest opinion having used both programs quite a bit, is that if I really wanted to use a PC I would get BibleWorks, and if I wanted to use a Mac, I would get Accordance. I did run BibleWorks under Parallels (an emulator) on theMac for over 2 years, and it is really not worth it. If a friend wants original language bible research software, my first question is "What platform do you plan to run it on?" If the answer is Windows, I tell them go with BibleWorks. If the answer is Mac, I tell them go with Accordance. (I have used Logos on the PC but found it slow and bloated....)
So, I would say answer a few basic questions:
1. Which platform? If PC, I would go BibleWorks, if Mac, Accordance.
2. Which resources are really important to me? If what you mainly want is original language texts, lexicons, grammars, etc., but are not concerned with commentaries, dictionaries, etc. then BibleWorks is great. If your want those things, Accordance is better.
3. How much am I willing to invest? If you already own a lot of paper resources, and mainly want original language texts, lexicons, and grammars - and a lot of each - and want them inexpensively, BibleWorks is great. For less than $400 you can get pretty much all of the stuff you need for original language research of the Scripture. But if you want electronic versions of not only the text and lexical resources, but commentaries and dictionaries, and extra biblical original language items, and you have money to purchase these (again?) electronically, then Accordance is how I would go.
Others may view these things differently, but after using both for a good period of time, that is how I would answer the question. They are both wonderful programs, and my interactions with both companies was always great. Hope that helps.
In Christ,
Bret Hicks

That is very helpful.
Posted 10 July 2012 - 01:22 PM
I cannot comment on Bibleworks directly. A good friend and scholar I know loves it (PC user). He knows several Mac users who use Accordance and sing its praises (I have been using Accordance since version 1.1a, purchased late 1995 and have been adding modules steadily ever since).
Despite its growing sophistication, Accordance remains the fastest program I have ever had. Launching and searching are lightening quick. It is extremely rare to see the "spinning wheel" while it is working. Whole number upgrades (version 9 to 10 sometime in the future) will garner a nominal fee, but all interval upgrades (like 9.5 to 9.6) are free, and often include improvements other companies charge for.
I use a PC in certain work venues, and Windows has improved, but given a choice, I prefer the Mac. Accordance utilizes the Mac UI superbly.
There is a plus to Accordance if you have an iPhone or iPad: they have a free iOS Accordance app. Almost any (few exceptions like the Atlas and Timeline) module you have on your Mac would be accessible on your iOS device. This is incredibly portable and convenient. It is NOT as powerful as the desktop application, but very helpful for redeeming the time while you are in line, waiting rooms, traveling, etc.
Bret is correct: at root is the type of OS you wish to use. The points raised by him and others may help you in your decision.
The Lord bless you.

Unfortunately, I do not know anyone with this software here in the diaspora.
Perhaps you could indulge me? For example, how would you search on Accordance for four genitives (noun or adjective or participle) in a row?
Thanks, Robrecht
Posted 10 July 2012 - 03:16 PM
That search is very simple, just search for:
[ANY gen] [ANY gen] [ANY gen] [ANY gen]
The [ ] brackets represent a commands within the search, in this time finding 'ANY' word that matches the subclass, which I specify as 'gen', short for genitive. (though you can type genitive as well). To search for 4 in a row, I just enter the command 4 times to represent 4 consecutive elements.

Joel's search will give you 1032 hits. It will include articles, relative pronouns, etc. I set up a search using the Construct window and got 32 hits. Screen shot attached.

I don't know a thing about BibleWorks or Logos, never having used either program. I have watched a couple videos comparing the Logos and Accordance on YouTube, but that's about it. I can tell you, however, what I like about Accordance. I am not a scholar, just a serious Bible student who teaches youth Sunday school (to a bunch of really great and very smart young people). I have had four years of formal training in Biblical Greek at a local Christian college.
Searches in English and Greek are easy and very fast, basically instant results. I run Accordance on a 2008 unibody 15" MacBook Pro, not a brand new Mac, and the searches are still instant (unless I search every module I own at the same time). I don't do the more complex construct searches daily, but they're easy to set up and fine-tune. The podcasts offer excellent instruction, so when I become befuddled, I review. When I was working on improving my parsing skills while in school, I often did searches for a specific verb group (like alpha contracts) so that I could see the possibilities and quiz myself on identification. Accordance has been a huge asset for language learning and reviewing.
I like being able to set up and save custom workspaces for specific needs. I have one I use daily for my Bible reading program that I've used for years (screen shot attached). I like that I can customize the look and make it all easier on the eyes with color – the pastels are not nearly as hard on my eyes as bright white.
I use Accordance nearly every week in Sunday school. It makes much more efficient use of my study time, and, with the aid of a projector, enables our students to see multiple versions of the Bible side by side, see a location on a map, see pictures of the places using the Bible Lands PhotoGuide. I think Accordance enables us to make the best use of our class time.
The user tools, user notes, and user highlights are great. I add my own hyperlinked cross-references and all kinds of other stuff so that I don't have to keep covering the same ground. I use Accordance for my Prayer Journal. I highlight both texts and tools, making them even more useful for my needs.
The ability to amplify from a text or tool is such a time saver. It used to be that, when we wanted to learn more, we had to start pulling down a bunch of books, trying to find enough desk space, then table space – I would usually end up on the floor surrounded by books. And it was so time consuming that I often just didn't pursue the question until I had a bigger block of time. With Accordance, going from a text to a map, dictionary, commentary, or lexicon is so quick that I don't have to wait until I have more time or space.
One thing that really has made Accordance a bargain around here is that, since neither my husband nor I use Accordance professionally, we can use the same license. (My husband does not use any of the Greek texts or tools, nor does he spend as much time with Accordance as I do.) Neither of us takes a hard copy of the Bible to church anymore – we use our iPads. If one of us did use Accordance professionally/intensively, we could buy a family license for less than the price of two licenses. Another of the great deals Accordance offers is the family license that converts to an individual license as each child becomes independent.
Accordance has regular sales, often has reduced introductory prices, some discounts for buying multiple volumes from a commentary series. Some modules are just cheaper to buy at Accordance than elsewhere. I recently purchased the UBS NT Handbooks for $150, sale price, regularly $200; they're $400 at Logos (all prices rounded up to the nearest dollar).
The Easy Install for modules means you can buy a commentary at 2AM and install it immediately if you so desire. Wireless syncing of desktop/laptop with an iPad or iPhone is easy.
Customer support at Accordance is top-notch. I've screen-shared with Helen Brown when I messed something up and she got the problem solved quickly. When I've had questions about ordering, I always get just the info I need from people who are consistently pleasant and helpful.
Basically, without knowing much about the other Bible software offerings, I can tell you that I love Accordance, use it daily. Frankly, I'm addicted.

There are some pretty incredible Greek and Hebrew scholars associated with this forum that I feel sure could give you some direct comparisons and information. Some are Professors in Original Languages thus I would think they are pretty familiar with all of the better software platforms.
As you have not asked for anything negative I would not think making comparisons would violate ethical standards. If you need more info, I would be glad to e-mail some of them at their own sites to let them know about the thread.
I also think It would be beneficial to you if you contacted Accordance and spoke with Helen and or David Lang. Yes, they certainly love Accordance , however, these are extremely high quality folks and I have no qualms at all saying they would give you honest information to the very best of their abilities. in some areas they might not be able to give comparisons, but certainly able to tell you/show you how to do extremely complex high level work easily in Accordance.
If you need more info, please just let folks here know and, be as specific as possible, people will help.
Hope this helps,
Grace and Peace,

Thanks, everyone, for all your help!

My overall summary is that both programmes are great, and you'll probably be entirely happy whichever option you end up going with. They're quite different in their approaches to things, so I think you'll find there's a significant learning curve in getting to grips with both of them. Bibleworks comes with an enormous amount as standard, which makes it great value for money, and the add-on modules tend to be the cheapest around as well (e.g. BDAG and HALOT bundle comes on both: Bibleworks $212, Accordance $299.99). However, Bibleworks has very many fewer add-ons than Accordance, so if you know what you're after, then there's a better chance that you'll find it on Accordance rather than Bibleworks. For Bibleworks, however, there are modules than have been created by users themselves (I get the feeling it's easier to do this with Bibleworks than Accordance, but it's a bit beyond my expertise) so you might find what you're looking for there.
I find both programmes incredibly fast. I also find the support from both support teams to be very helpful, friendly and responsive. I do find Bibleworks a little limited for Hebrew bible studies; it seems to me that they concentrate on New Testament studies and haven't put the same input into the Hebrew bible (the recent upgrade from Bibleworks 8 to 9 brought pretty much nothing for Hebrew bible studies, much more for NT; others have commented similarly, so perhaps they'll rectify this in a future upgrade). Accordance has a vast array of Hebrew bible resources – but you'll have to pay for them, as generally they don't come in standard base modules.
I can't resist one comment about the PC/Mac debate – I hope this doesn't derail everything here! Having recently made the switch from PC to Mac, I'm like one of those new zealots that everyone hates (like ex-smokers who castigate smokers even more harshly than those who have never smoked)! Using Accordance on Mac is a delight, in no small measure, thanks to the advantages of Mac over PC. But if you've already made your investment in PC, I'll try not to rub it in!
Posted 13 July 2012 - 12:32 PM
(I own all 3 of the "big" programs, running BW under Fusion--though very rarely--and the Mac version of L--which I also very rarely use. There are one or two things in each that I don't have in Accord and it sometimes saves a 30 mile drive to the seminary to retrieve my paper copy. I never do any searching, etc. with anything byu Accordance.)
One last comment: you've not heard from anyone here who runs Accordance on a PC with the emulator. I really think you ought to evaluate that option before you make your final decision. I haven't used the emulator for a long time, but I understand that it runs quite well. There is a bunch of info on the Accord website about that route.

I have a comment about running Accordance on a PC emulator...I tried this for several months before switching to a MAC..it "hangs up frequently" and some of the cool features like 3D map do not work...I have no experience with any other major Bible software...I really like Accordance running on a MAC platform and would only buy the emulator package for "limited use"...One point I really like about Accordance is the on-going podcasts by Dr.J to explain features and different modules offered....to me this is invaluable!!!....

I have had four years of formal training in Biblical Greek at a local Christian college.
I know this isn't a Logos vs Accordance thread, but I can echo Rod Decker's comments. I have an investment from my PC days that I still access using Logos and there are some things that aren't available in Accordance that I need. That being said, the biggest problem I have with Logos for Mac is that it just has never felt like it has been finished. Good concepts especially when you want a huge library, but bugs, crashes and speed issues. Logos might eventually get there, but it scares me to think that they will release version 5 when version 4 was never quite up to par IMHO.
I would tend to promote Accordance over BW particularly if you ever want to expand your library. I think that Accordance has some great capabilities outside of original language studies. The maps are second to none. There are some awesome commentary and journal resources. More is coming all the time. That being said, if you stick to being PC based, you may not find the benefits great enough to be running Accordance on an emulator.

"HAL and Boeing share a very special relationship and we are delighted that our strengths in composites are getting more international recognition," Soundara Rajan, Director, Corporate Planning & Marketing, HAL said. "Showcasing HAL's composite manufacturing capability on one of the world's premier long-haul commercial jets positions us for even greater opportunities at the forefront of technology," he added.
"The agreement represents yet another work package Boeing has placed in India and HAL since we first began our relationship with HAL in 1991, and after having received the first production part from HAL in 1995," said Boeing India President Dinesh Keskar. "The composite 777 flaperon that HAL will produce represents a significant leap forward in technological capability, and supports Boeing's strategy to work in partnership with India's aerospace industry for the long-term," he added.
Senior officials from Boeing and HAL were present on the occasion.Indian carriers have ordered a total of 36 (Thirty-Six) 777s. This includes 23 from Air India and 13 from Jet Airways.

Obama's old-time-Democratic SOTU
Barack Obama offered a new political product on Tuesday night, a brand with a distinctively retro flavor — "Democrat Classic."
Four years after his first State of the Union, Obama rolled out a series of vintage proposals from his party's amply stocked policy cupboard — a $1.75-an-hour hike in the federal minimum wage, an ambitious plan to expand public preschool education to all kids, reintroduction of a $50 billion infrastructure plan, and resurrection of climate change legislation.
Story Continued Below
( PHOTOS: Scenes from Obama State of the Union 2013)
Taken as a whole, it marked the latest step in a clear effort by Obama to nudge the nation's politics to the center-left, a shift from the center-right politics of Ronald Reagan that have dominated American political life for more than three decades.
The scale of his new spending proposals was relatively modest, but the new programs targeted improving life on the lowest rungs of America's working class, delighting liberals and eliciting charges of overreach by Republicans, who are unlikely to pass much of what Obama laid on the table Tuesday night.
( Also on POLITICO: Did Obama stretch the truth?)
"It is our unfinished task to restore the basic bargain that built this country — the idea that if you work hard and meet your responsibilities, you can get ahead, no matter where you come from, what you look like, or who you love," he said as he began a speech that lived up to its billing as a bookend to his progressive inaugural address three weeks ago.
"It is our unfinished task to make sure that this government works on behalf of the many, and not just the few; that it encourages free enterprise, rewards individual initiative, and opens the doors of opportunity to every child across this great nation of ours," he added.
Obama called for bipartisanship, but drew limits at how far he was willing to go to cut deals, a marked contrast from his first term, when he sought with little success to reach a grand bargain on the budget and deficits with GOP leaders.
( Full text: State of the Union speech)
Over and again in the hourlong speech, Obama cast himself as champion of the working classes and portrayed Republicans as protectors of the wealthy and powerful — in a speech that began with a John F. Kennedy quote and could have been comfortably delivered by JFK, FDR or LBJ.
Obama's more immediate aim was to back Republicans into a corner on the upcoming fight over $1.2 trillion in budget cuts triggered on March 1 by the sequester by harnessing public opinion for his own approach — through fewer budget cuts than Republicans want, a more modest approach to reforming runway entitlement programs and a greater emphasis on raising new tax revenues from corporations and the wealthy.

What I do in my spare time.
Recently, I had an appointment with an Occupational Therapist. I described in detail what I do with all this yarn. Then she asked me what I do in my 'Leisure Time'. I looked at her blankly for several long seconds. Leisure Time? I pulled my knitting out of my bag. She looked blankly at me for several long seconds. I took off my shoe and showed her my hand-dyed, hand-knit sock. She looked at me for another handful of seconds. I thought hard. Finally, I told her... in my 'Leisure Time' I dye yarn. And Fiber. And I knit. And weave. And sometimes felt. And spin... And I hang out with people who do these things and we do them together... She finally summed up for me "So, you do the same thing for Leisure time that you do for 'work time'?"
Finally. Someone who understands me.
So, here's some of my 'leisure time' items (please note that both woven items are Sock Yarn - delightful weaving yarn):
1.) Inkle Loom warped with 2 strands together of undyed Bamboo-Ewe and Car-Cozy in light blue.
2) Student project - doubleweave plaid blanket on the unknown/no-name loom. She's doing a wonderful job, and while it's slow-going changing colors, I am insanely jealous and want to weave it when she goes home. (Note: must resist urge to weave student's project.) Warp in white, light blue, and Midnight Blue used in Cleopatra - weft is the same.
Gifties: A gift from 5elementknitr - it's a stitch saver (not marker, SAVER). When you drop a stitch, it's the handiest little tool. In a previous life it was a crochet hook - now, it's my best friend. Perfect size to pick up drops on socks, and stays where I hook it on my project bag. (If this gives the impression that I pick up dropped stitches for my 'Leisure Time', let's just say, it's been known to happen.)
I think we should have a contest and give one away. Yours won't say 'Yarn Fairy' but will instead be adorned with a sweet little bead, making for an elegant looking tool for those 'delicate' moments when you swear like a sailor. It will look something like this, the bead may be different. So... how do you win? Comment, of course! I'll have Nora use her excellent 'choosing' skills (eeni meeni minee mo) to pick the winner. We'll give it a couple of days, plan to be the winner by Monday.So... what's coming next, you ask? So glad you did because I have new things to offer to you ;-) I'm updating the website with these Totally Tsuper Tsock Kits:
Stay tuned for web updates so you can haz them.
Also coming in the next day or so?
It's time folks; Time to sign up for the 2010 Tsock Club.
You ain't seen nuthin' yet.

Saints tight end Jimmy Graham was named the NFC offensive player of the week for his exploits against the Falcons and everyone knows there's only one way to celebrate such an accomplishment.
You sit down with the folks from Pro Football Talk on NBC Sports Network for a chat. Graham will be a guest on Friday's edition of the program where he'll talk about his successful return from an ankle injury, the Saints' run of four wins in their last five games and his thoughts on what this week's game with the Raiders might bring.
Hines Ward will also be on the show to talk about a matchup he's pretty familiar with from his playing days. He'll break down the Sunday night game between the Ravens and Steelers while Mike Florio, Peter King, Erik Kuselias and Amani Toomer talk about some of the other big matchups from around the league in Week 11.
It all gets started at 5 p.m. ET on NBC Sports Network.

8 ways to monetize your website
by a guest poster • September 29, 2014 • Tagged: advertising, blogging, income  • Comments
The Internet is a great way to make money. In order to do this though, it is necessary to know how to monetize a website. There are all sorts of different ways to do this, but knowing the ins and outs of this process is helpful. That is why understanding the eight different ways to monetize a website can point a potential business or website designer into the right direction.
1. Banner Ads on the Website
This is one of the easiest ways to monetize a website. Ads placed on a website can help generate some money, depending on the kind of ad you use. Google Adspace is the most often used way of integrating banner ads onto the website. Basically, the site owner receives a certain amount of money every time someone clicks on an advertisement. With other ad services, a website user receives a set amount of money for the number of people who view the ad and do not click it.
2. Affiliate Marketing
Affiliate marketing is a way to bring in money by advertising different products or services. For example, someone can make a how-to video on how to build a garden fence. They can then provide links to the tools they used to build the fence. When someone clicks on the link and purchases the tool, the website owner receives money for this purchase. There are all sorts of different affiliate services out there. Amazon has this, as does TicketMaster, and dozens of other services. It all depends on what a website coves.
3. Selling Ad Space
While the pay per click options and pay per view features are available through the banner option, it is also possible to sell ad space on a website. This is generally done for more popular websites where a flat fee is given. One company might pay $1,000 to have their ad placed at the top of the website or in a certain location.
4. Sell Products
A website is able to either sell digital products or physical products. Digital products are the easiest to perform as it does not require any sort of shipping. With the digital option, someone pays to purchase a music track or an image. The physical products require someone to mail out the product, but either way, having a web store on the site is a great feature to integrate into the site. If you want to sell something on your website pay more attention on finding the best domain name as a part of your branding strategy.
5. Donate Button
For not profit options (for profit websites can use this as well, although they might find it harder to generate income), it is possible to bring in money through donate button feature. This button allows people to send any amount they want to the Website owner. It usually connects to a PayPal account, but there are different ways to do this and generate some income. You can easily create yours here.
6. Email List
When people sign up for information from a website, they provide their email account. After enough emails counts have been obtained, it is possible to sell the email list to a third party, who then sells the list to companies interested in purchasing the information.
7. Premium Website
For many website builders, they create a website that features advertisements and one that does not. It is possible to charge someone a monthly fee to access the website without ads. While the amount charged is usually just a few dollars a month, if the website has enough of a following, it is possible for someone to generate a few thousand dollars a month, just by incorporating the service, and it does not alienate visitors to the website as they can still connect to the site, only with ads.
8. Charge to Access
For other websites, it is possible to charge to simply access the material inside. The website might provide videos and other special content people do not access without the monthly fee. For some, this can become rather lucrative.

You could say it was traditional. Maybe.
On Christmas Eve 26 years ago, in the glow of the Hanukkah candles and Christmas lights that were part of our mixed traditions, George asked me to marry him.
OK, that ends the traditional part.
You could say it was romantic. Sort of. Granted, pulling together a romantic proposal to blend a ready-made family of three preteen daughters was no easy task. But I digress.
George knew about my love of cows, so I shouldn't have been surprised, but I was when he opened his "proposal kit" (that was surprise No. 1) and pulled out a box of Laughing Cow cheese. "Because you always make me laugh," he said, as he handed it to me. But I wasn't laughing that night.
Then there was a long-stemmed red rose to commemorate the one he brought me on our first date. That original one had actually come from a freeway vendor. I always wondered if, on his way to my house that evening, he happened to see the guy hawking flowers, panicked, and decided he'd better bring me one.
And then there was the box of Little Schoolboy cookies. This had become a family joke. Unless you are one of our daughters and were there when it happened, you won't find it funny. So I'll spare you. Although George did not spare me.
I still wasn't laughing.
Next came a bottle of Champagne and two crystal wine glasses. He had been carrying his kit (in the form of an old briefcase) around all evening waiting for just the right time. In our house, this meant when children were sleeping, phones were not ringing, dishes were done. And on this night, stockings were filled.
Lastly, there was a little velvet box with a ring, just in case I said "Yes." Which, given the proposal, was uncertain.
But then he got down on one knee and said he loved me. And there amid the frenzy of our world was something that brought sense and silly to my life. So I said "Yes." And we shared the Laughing Cow cheese.
Only this time, I was laughing too.

Yes we can.
The Victory Speech:
The (ahem) vigorous opposition:
03 June 2008
This is our time
Posted by shadowfax at 7:55 PM

A friendly wake-up call, Shadowfax: If your side can't move beyond empty slogans like "this is our time" and endless recitations of the "McCain is old" mantra, this election (like 7 of the last 10) will put a Republican in the White House.ReplyDelete
I'm not sure what your *ahem* means, but McCain just seems like a nice guy...the guy who shows up on your doorstep giving you extra tomatoes he's grown. The guy who is your favorite patient in the ER...the guy who is up at 6 am working on his lawn or going on a morning walk...ReplyDelete
From a purely superficial standpoint, can you really picture the retiree crowd (a ginormous voting block) choosing Obama over McCain? The suburban crowd? The rural crowd?
The young, urban crowd with minimal assets and tax responsibility: Yes. The college crowd whose neighbors don't give them tomatoes: Yes. The usual suspects like environmentalists and anti-war crayzees? Yes.
I think it will be really close, but those on the fence will go with the nice war vet rather than the liberal instigator.
I actually CAN see the retiree crowd voting for Obama. I AM from a "blue state," however.ReplyDelete
I dunno about McCain being a kindly grandpa who hands out tomatoes to the neighbors. Anyone who calls his wife the c-word in public doesn't seem too kindly to me. Also? Iraq for 100 years? Even if we are right to be there now, we can't afford to keep this up much longer let alone for the rest of my generation's lives!
I'm just saying that McCain's speech was a complete and utter trainwreck. Even the Fox guys and "Republican strategists" were wondering what the hell went wrong, what with the weird smile-grimaces, awkward pauses, and general inability to read off a teleprompter.
The ability to speechify is not, I think we agree, the most essential element of picking a president. But if you're going to invite the comparison with a speech so deliberately timed, you'd better bring your "A" game, especially if you're juxtaposing your speech with one from the greatest orator of our generation at his moment of triumph.
And McCain didn't bring his "A" game, to put it mildly.
I do think you're right on one point, though: McCain does give off a "nice-guy" vibe, especially when he's doing town halls and speaking off the cuff. I don't know how far that will take him in the era of Bush's failed war, but he does have that going for him.
Smooth-talking is important...for used car salesmen and other people trying to get you to agree to a bad deal, which is why Obama has gotten this far. I'd rather have the awkwardly-pausing nice guy who won't take away all my money and give it away to those who wish to not make it themselves, thanks.ReplyDelete
If you have bad ideas which will cause us to not only pay the same in gas and food, but more in taxes too, causing an even-lower take-home paycheck, you need smooth-talking to get people on that bandwagon.
Yeah, a kindly neighbor who leaves his first wife after a disfiguring car wreck. Sigh. So noble.ReplyDelete
Mmmm..tomatoes. Mmmm...bigger paychecks.
Who'd want a guy raised by his grandmother being pres? Yikes! Civil rights lawyer? Why he DOES sound exactly like a used car salesman!!

DxOMark image quality testing protocols for lenses and sensors
A detailed look at DxOMark's image quality testing protocols, including laboratory conditions and setup, methods, test-specific tools, and software that DxO Labs developed and uses to ensure scientific, bias-free data and repeatable results.
DxO Labs has been measuring image quality parameters for a broad range of digital cameras and lenses (DSLRs, compact DSCs, cameraphones) for many years. To ensure that our measurements were accurate, repeatable, and covered the desired range of image quality parameters, we developed DxO Analyzer, now the world's leading tool for accurate and reliable image quality performance measurement. All published DxOMark measurements have been made using DxO Analyzer.
DxO Analyzer includes the following three key elements:
- A dedicated camera testing lab specifically equipped with dedicated test targets, lighting systems, light-boxes, light-meters, telemeters, spectrometers, etc.
- A set of precisely-described and bias-free test protocols for each measurement category which:
- Strictly accounts for all physical parameters that influence measurements.
- Ensures repeatability of the measurements.
- Software that automatically analyzes test target images, performs quality controls, and reports all measurements in graphic and data formats.
The basic protocol for all measurements is:
- Adjust test targets, lights, and the selected camera and lens.
- Shoot a set of images of the target at different camera and lens settings.
- Process the target images with DxO Analyzer (machine vision algorithms enable automatic processing).
- Evaluate the data and graphs reported through the DxO Analyzer interface.
Read more about DxO Analyzer.
DxOMark measurements are performed on cameras and lenses that are bought or rented from retailers. It is DxO Labs' policy to test and publish results for publicly-available versions of each camera, rather than for cameras lent by the manufacturer or for pre-series models.
To eliminate setup bias, settings, instrument calibration, light levels, cleanliness (including that of the camera and lens), and all other parameters are checked and rechecked before each camera/lens is tested to ensure that all cameras and lenses are tested under exactly the same conditions.
Finally, each measurement is validated by at least two technicians who take their measurements on different days to minimize the risk of manipulation errors.

Apparently, there are some brothers teeing it up in the Super Bowl. I imagine you'll have heard about that storyline 857,333 times by kickoff.
But it makes you think ... What kind of siblings were John and Jim Harbaugh growing up? Did the elder John pick on his little brother, giving him noogies or sticking his Star Wars figures in the dog doo? OK, they might've been a little old for Star Wars figures ... But did they at least play PONG? Were they down with Dungeons & Dragons and the 20-sided dice? One wonders.
One also wonders how much tape of last season's Harbaugh Bowl Jim has watched. Sitting on the set of NFL.com Live during that Thursday nighter between the San Francisco 49ers and Baltimore Ravens, fellow NFL Network analyst -- and former center -- Jamie Dukes and I wondered aloud how the Niners' pass protection could be so ineffective. Make no mistake, it was the key factor in Baltimore's 16-6 win. San Francisco's offensive line didn't give Alex Smith any time to mount a drive (or a comeback). When the smoke cleared, the Niners quarterback had been sacked nine times. That was my first thought regarding the upcoming matchup. Others?
@harrison_nfl Needs more Steelers, less Harbaughs.â Dennis Hollibaugh (@StlCtyRoller) January 24, 2013
I hear ya, Dennis. Thing is, the Pittsburgh Steelers had their own O-line issues this year. For the record, I think San Francisco's line will fare just fine on Super Bowl Sunday. As for the rest of my (early) thoughts on the game, take a look below. As per usual, feel free to contradict those at your leisure: @Harrison_NFL is the dropbox.
Elliot Harrison went 1-1 on Championship Sunday, giving him a 146-71-1 record since taking over this space in Week 4. How will he fare in his final prediction of the season, Super Bowl XLVII? His pick is below, with the "home" Niners listed second:
While the
49ers' line should acquit itself just fine, it's also important to note that the
Ravens' pass rush is not nearly as stout as it was in 2011. Last season, with
Terrell Suggs at full health and defensive coordinator
Chuck Pagano running the show, Baltimore racked up 48 sacks. Well, Suggs got hurt, Pagano went to the
Indianapolis Colts and the sack total fell to 37 this season. Certainly not a poor number, but an 11-sack drop-off is an 11-sack drop-off. Baltimore has totaled six so far through three playoff games.
We should probably mention that Colin Kaepernick isn't exactly the easiest guy to get to, either. The second-year man out of Nevada has been trapped once -- just once -- in each of the past five games. The Ravens had trouble with the closest thing to Kaepernick they faced this year: Robert Griffin III (until he was hurt in that game).
The 49ers' rushing attack should be effective against this Ravens defense, a unit that's allowed 128.3 rushing yards per game in the playoffs.
However, I'd like to point out -- especially while we're on the subject of running the football -- that this isn't all about the 49ers' offense. Put plainly, San Francisco hasn't faced a running back like Ray Rice all season. Sure, Vic Fangio's defense saw Adrian Peterson in September. Marshawn Lynch came down the pike twice. But while those guys are two of the best runners from the tailback position, they're not major factors in the passing game. They combined for 63 receptions in 2012. Rice had 61 by himself (and 76 last season). He'll present a problem for the 49ers' linebackers.
As if that's not enough, safety Dashon Goldson can't afford to get caught in no-man's land like he did last week against Julio Jones. If there's one guy who can sprint like Julio down in the schoolyard, it's Ravens wideout Torrey Smith. If the secondary brackets Smith? Fine. Joe Flacco and Anquan Boldin have proven they can beat zone and single-man coverage throughout the playoffs.
So, Super Bowl XLVII is stacking up to be a pretty close shave. How close? Here's how I see the matchup, piece by piece:
Coaching: Advantage 49ers. Offensive coordinator Greg Roman has more play-calling experience than the Ravens' Jim Caldwell. Dean Pees is also in his first year as Baltimore's DC.
Quarterback: Advantage Ravens. Flacco has played very well, and is now 8-4 in his postseason career. This will be Kaepernick's 10th NFL start.
Running Back: Advantage Ravens. We've discussed Rice. "Backup" Bernard Pierce has rushed for 169 yards on 6.3 yards per carry in the playoffs.
Receivers: Advantage Ravens. This is tight, but Baltimore's wide receivers have all made HUGE plays over the past three weeks. Boldin was unstoppable on Championship Sunday.
Offensive Line: Advantage 49ers. They'll have an easier time with Baltimore's front.
Defensive Line: Push. San Francisco has been better up front all year, though the Niners couldn't get any pressure last week. Aldon Smith completely disappeared.
Linebackers: Advantage 49ers. Yes, this is Ray Lewis' last game, but he's just not the player he once was, and easily gets blown by in coverage.
Secondary: Advantage 49ers. While Goldson was beat last week, let's not forget the shutout he and the rest of the Niners secondary pitched in the second half against Jones, Roddy White and Tony Gonzalez.
Special Teams: Advantage Ravens. About 31 NFL head coaches would trust Justin Tucker over David Akers right now. Even Andy Reid.
Tie! But the Ravens aren't the Rams, so that's out the window. After giving it considerable thought, I'm giving the edge to the 49ers. Even though it's a "push" at defensive line, the upside clearly sits with them. The extra rest afforded to Justin Smith's triceps should be beneficial. And Aldon Smith did have nearly 20 sacks in the regular season. If either of those pieces improve their play, the entire defensive advantage will sit with the Niners. Combine that with quality coaching and a quarterback who doesn't make a lot of mistakes, and the San Francisco 49ers improve to 6-for-6 on Super Bowl Sundays. #BALvsSF

Anime World Order Show # 47 - Podcasting For the Restless and the Brokenhearted
2/16/07, 5:15 AM: Our hosting is now working once more. If you were unable to download the latest episode yesterday (about 40% of everyone was affected by this), please retry again now.
Daryl has an advance review of Le Chevalier D'Eon, Gerald gets sprung with Utawarerumono, and Clarissa reflects upon Nerima Daikon Brothers. As a test to see if we can hang with REAL reviewers, all of us have decided to review just Volume 1 of shows we've never seen before, all courtesy of ADV Films. We're going nowhere fast.
Click Here to Download
Introduction (0:00 - 19:48)
One guy on the GeekNights forums said that we answer too many emails per show and should stick to one per episode, but we'd never get through it all if we did that! Besides, if certain parts of the show aren't your bag, you can check these show notes for the timecodes for each segment so you know what to skip over. We're asked to name our Top 10 Mediocre Anime, which proves impossible for us and results in a lengthy diatribe over the usefulness and viability of quantitative ratings systems as a whole. The voicemails reveal that DARYL'S LIFE GOAL IS ACCOMPLISHED, and yet he is not the one equipped to complete the requested task to "make Gerald a real man." However, this happened in celebration of Gerald's birthday:
Let's News! (19:48 - 39:06)
Paprika didn't get nominated for an Oscar, probably because nobody saw it. Thanks, Sony! By the way, they're distributing Tekkon Kinkreet, too. And they're denying that they prohibit adult content on Blu-Ray, but of the eight or so duplication centers, they run two and Disney works with five (and apparently per their contracts, duplicators who work with Disney agree not to duplicate adult content). The identity of the remaining one is shrouded in secrecy. Speaking of secret identities, Princess Ai is getting set for another giant push. You know, the "manga" that's written by the Tokyopop CEO under the fake persona "DJ Milky"? The one that contains his poetry? Kind of like how the theme songs to Initial D, GTO, Rave Master, and Reign the Conqueror were changed to shitty things he wrote himself? Hopefully he won't throw any of his office chairs our way. Hmm, we probably won't be getting anything from Tokyopop anytime soon. Steel Jeeg's getting remade, and a lot of smaller US anime cons got canceled, too (there is a much larger story about this particular con full of drama, suspense, and Dan Woren, the voice of Roy Fokker). Also, fanboys everywhere are canceling their Gunbuster orders because the US DVD altered about a minute worth of the background music. We're told that omelettes are nutritious.
Promo: Anime Roundtable (39:06 - 39:42)
Do you like our podcast? This is sort of like, the Canadian version of us. Daryl thinks that one guy Neil sounds like he's impersonating Scott Thompson's Buddy Cole character from Kids in the Hall, and the fangirls on it are stereotypical fangirls and therefore THE ENEMY. However, one of them on the latest episode said she liked Mind Game. She will be spared in the first sweep, but we'll be sure to leave room in the oven for the next go since she thinks Ryoga's hot because of the fang. Ain't no love in the hood for Madarame, it seems.
Review: Le Chevalier D'Eon (39:42 - 1:10:03)
Daryl's pick is probably the most recent thing he's ever reviewed in the history of the podcast, as this Production IG title is still ongoing in Japan. Production IG + Kenshin + Comte de Saint Germain?! Hell yeah! They couldn't POSSIBLY screw this one up, right? If we never hear back from ADV ever again, we'll know this is the reason.
- ADV's official Le Chevalier D'Eon website - you can watch the first episode dubbed in English for free
- Production IG's official English-language Le Chevalier site - be sure to check the Special Feature section for several interviews with the crew, because otherwise you'd never find out that they marketed this series to takarazuka fans and cast the voice actress for Lady Oscar from Rose of Versailles in later episodes
- Mike Toole's Sorcerer Stabber Orphen dub/sub comparison - Internet Explorer is required to view this file, which is presented in How-They-Lied-O-Vision (copyright Corn Pone Flicks), this is one of many articles from Anime Jump that was lost when the old site died and everything moved over to the new site. Incidentally, the new site is also dead, and updates to it are basically no longer possible due to some sort of bizarre CSS debacle or something.
- Correction: Marie was not 15 when she married Louis XV, thus making Louis 8. Louis was 15, thus making Marie 22. It wasn't OUR mistake, it was the commentary track's!
You see this guy's show notes? Notes that tell you every single point that's covered in the episode that are a mere fraction of the length of this crap? And he remembered to actually put the links in rather than just write a bunch of garbage? That's the way show notes should be.
Review: Utawarerumono (1:10:40 - 1:32:54)
Gerald picked this one to review after seeing the impressive trailer for it on The Anime Network. What Gerald did not know then and knows now was that this anime is based off of a porn game yet is not a porn anime. This is truly a testament to the work of those poor interns who have to edit together trailers to make crappy shows looks decent. If we never hear back from ADV ever again, we'll know this is the reason.
- ADV's official Utawarerumono Website: Go there yourself and check out the very deceptive trailer
- Wikipedia's Entry on Utaware-whatever
- Leaf/Aquaplus' website (Japanese AND Not Work Safe A TWOFER!)
Clarissa pulled the latest work from WataNABE SHINichi (that's how you get "Nabeshin" for a nickname, kids!). It's...pretty much the same as the rest of his work. If we never hear back from ADV ever again, we'll know this is the reason.
- ADV's official Nerima Daikon Brothers site has previews and such.
- Anime News Network has info on the cast and crew, as usual
- Unlike most shows, the opening of this one gives you a pretty good idea of what you're in for, namely a hell of a lot of people singing about ridiculous things. Well, okay, so it's not exactly representative of the number of jokes about things like penises or Korean Wave pachinko parlors. (With bonus video of the voice actors/singers performing this dressed up like their characters! This is included on the DVD also.)
Daryl has once again made a guest appearance on this podcast, this time to review the Greatest Movie EVER!, Streets of Fire. Joining him on this expedition is Gerald and former guest/frequent poster Steve Harrison. Maybe we should get Paul to record special promos for those episodes as opposed to just taking music from the movie and playing it at the same time as his promo. Hmm.
Closing (1:57:28 - 2:02:32)
Next episode, it's time to get back on track, sort of. Gerald's reviewing Spirit of Wonder (as much of it as he could get a hold of), Daryl has vowed to increase the number of manga reviews he's done by reviewing the ultra-manly gekiga samurai action piece Satsuma Gishiden, and Clarissa vows to be even more manly than Daryl since she's reviewing MAZINKAISER~! Why? You don't wanna know why. Everybody ready? Get it on.
