Jennifer Love Hewitt has opened up about how she stays in shape.
The actress, who toned up earlier this year, shared with Shape magazine's October 2009 issue secrets of how she stays thin.
VIEW THE PHOTOS: Celebrity Brunettes
"Instead of piling up food in my fridge that says 'Come eat me!' I keep enough for only a couple of days," Jennifer said. "And I rarely have treats around that might tempt me late at night, which is when I usually crave something really fattening. What am I going to do? Drive out at 11 at night just to satisfy a craving? No, that's crazy."
The "Ghost Whisperer" star said she doesn't deprive herself, even though she sometimes gets flack from others for actually eating.
VIEW THE PHOTOS: The Ladies Of Primetime Television
"Hollywood used to revolve around women with curves, like Liz Taylor and Marilyn Monroe," she said. "But now it's so different. Not that long ago, I went to this celebrity luncheon, and I was the only person in the room eating. The other girls looked at me like I hadn't gotten the memo, but I was hungry! All of these girls were afraid that if someone saw them eating, it would be a disaster. It makes no sense at all."
Jennifer feels good about her choices these days and she revealed she also gives herself pep talks.
"I fall asleep feeling beautiful," she told the mag. "Then, in the morning, before I leave the house, I say five things I love about myself, like 'You have really pretty eyes.' That way I can go out into the world with that little bit of extra confidence. It's a feel-good protein shake in my back pocket in case someone messes with me that day."

Can I Get DS4.6 to Read DSI Layered Files (I Hope)?
Ladies and Gents,
I've been using DS4 for a while, and most of my characters are customized textures with a lot of tattoos and tanlines and such. I've been using the templates and methods set up by the old Inked series by Shana, available at Rosity, and the Perfect Tanlines setups by Dimension3D to make them (learn by tinkering :D), and both methods seem to use DSI files for layers.
However, when i open one of my characters in DS4.5, the layered parts are white. I was told by Ralf Sessler (Dimension 3D) that there's a bug in DS4.5 that won't allow it to recognize DSI files. I've written to them about it but haven't yet heard back.
Does anyone know if this was fixed in 4.6? Ralf said he's written to DAZ about it multiple times to no avail.
Is there a way to get them to read in DS4.6, and failing that, how do you create a new layered file in DS4.6? This has kept me from using DS4.5 since it came out...
ReDave Posts: 815
That's a good question, I unfortunately have a very slow render going so I can't check in the latest DS4.6. However, what kind of layering method are you using? If it's "Normal" (i.e. cover the underlying layer) it should be fairly straight-forward to make a simple Shader Mixer network to emulate it. The other layering methods are probably doable as well, but may require some work.
ReDave, thanks for the quick reply! I feel your slow-rendering pain, man! :D
I generally use a multiplicative layer for tattoos. The tanline files are a color fill multiplicative layer with a mask layer, all over top of the character skin...
Products like Marieah's which use the layered image editor are working in DS4.5 - I haven't checked in the very latest version but I have applied them recently. I haven't tried applying a .dsi file, though they are certainly still listed in the available formats for image import. Have you tried rendering the scenes that appear not to be loading correctly?
Yes, in Luxrender, and the parts seem to be white. Lux is all I have ever used in DS...
I'm going to try installing 4.6 tonight and trying my figs with dsi in them again. I'll report back with my findings, but if anyone is ahead of me here, PLEASE let me know the science of it!

Well, I'd say always try a 3Delight render too -that gives you a better idea of where any problem lies (in DS, or in the exporter to Lux Render, or in a limitation of Lux Render itself).

I have tried D3D's tanlines & it does not work in DS4.5. The torso area loses all diffuse images whe the presets are applied.
Good idea to be thorough, but something tells me BWSman is right. I talked to the creator of the tanlines prog and he said it's been a problem, and that he's written to DAZ several times to no avail. Any chance this could be tackled in-house for the next release, Mr. Haseltine?

It looks like some of the coding has changed and it doesn't appear to read the .dsi properly (images referenced in .dsi aren't loaded or don't disply).
Opening up DS3 & looking at the LIE; and then recreating that in DS4 appears to work; but it's time consuming & I haven't tried to save the results.Post edited by BWSman on

A friend of mine "dropped" this issue in my lap several months ago, but as I've never used LIE (and didn't have a copy until it was included in DS4) there wasn't much I could do, it also didn't help that I was busy.
I've since gone back to it, however since I didn't have LIE before DS4 I don't know how it used to work, but from what I can see in DS4 there have been a lot of internal changes, so it's no surprise the DSE script and script generated DSI files are having problems. For a starter DS4 doesn't apply the DSI to the surface any more, it gets put through LIE and a TIF is created in your Temp directory, now going by the TIF being generated by Ralf's script generated DSI, I get the feeling there have been a few internal code changes made to LIE, as a result they don't work in DS4.
On top of all that I can't find any way to create a DSI in DS4, just a DUF LIE preset, so I can't even do a cross reference to see where the changes are.
I don't think the ShaderMixer would be of much use with Ralf's product, the "masks" are only partial overlays, they don't cover the entire texture, as a result SM would just stretch them over the whole UV.
Please make a bug report.
Bejaymac said:I don't think the ShaderMixer would be of much use with Ralf's product, the "masks" are only partial overlays, they don't cover the entire texture, as a result SM would just stretch them over the whole UV.
I think that could be worked around - using a Tiler brick to get the right size for the overlay and comparing its S, T values with the real U,V values to apply it to the right area of the map.
Wow, you guys are talking waaay above my head, but it sounds like I've found the men for the job. Mr. Haseltine, can you direct me to the correct place to report this? I should write to Ralf and ask him to get in on this...
Richard Haseltine said:Please make a bug report.
I made a bug report nearly one year ago when the problem was brought to my attention for the first time:
The problem is confirmed by the developpers, but obviously, it has no high priority.
What do you say, Mr. Haseltine? Could the DAZ wizards do anything for Mr. Sesseler and myself?
mrtatterscratch said:What do you say, Mr. Haseltine? Could the DAZ wizards do anything for Mr. Sesseler and myself?
What is your work flow to save your characters and reload them?

I don't know, though it MAY help to add a comment to the linked bug report (you will need to create an account, if you haven't, since it's a separate system from the store) so that they know it is affecting users.Post edited by Richard Haseltine on
Most of my original characters were built in Poser and saved in my Poser runtime. I import them to DS and that's worked fine until now, even in DS4.0. I'm not as familiar with DS and the proper save methods, and I only tinker with the LIE because I've had to. But this problem makes DS4.5-6 unusable for me until I can tackle it...
Okay, left a note at the bug post...
I think I have found a manual fix.
Using a scene where I put tanlines on V4 in DS3.. Saved as scene then opened in DS4.6
Go to the Surface tab and select the material (ie 2_SkinHip)... I'll bet you see a grey box were you would normally see the torso. Left mouse click on that box and select Layered Image Editor.
Select the bottom item (I see it as named Skin)
Look for Blend Mode: In my test it was set to Mutiplicative Blend, it should be Alpha Channel Blend.
When I change it to Alpha Channel Blend that fixes it.Post edited by DraagonStorm on
Using Alpha Blend in LIE will not work for the tan-lines. It will leave a white border where it should be black (or vice-versa, don't remember exactly).
This is only a guess..
When 3D3 creates the .dsi file he may not be including what the Blend Mode is suppose to be, and DS4.6 is defaulting to Multiplicative Blend...
The products that I have done using LIE (some of them partnered with Marieah) I do not use .dsi initially. I script all of the steps to create the Layered Image, and set the values for each layer as needed, and then save a .dsi file that would be used if another Layer is added from my products.
Dimension3D said:Using Alpha Blend in LIE will not work for the tan-lines. It will leave a white border where it should be black (or vice-versa, don't remember exactly).
In preview you see a little difference in color, but not after render.
Right, for most part of the body, it will not be visible thanks to UV-mapping. But there is a small area at the neck where it is visible. And the problem is a bug in LIE, where only the Alpha Blend mode is working, the other modes are no longer working in DS 4.0.Post edited by Dimension3D on

Ah, I see that now...
I guess I'm not seeing that in my products where I use a mask, because I'm lazy, and don't want to mess around with moving the x, y. I just make the mask as big as the UV map, and then resize it in the script to fit the actual texture it is overlaying.
Okay, so after all this, has anyone found a way to convert DSI layered files into Studio 4.6?
I've written and called and just finished another round of asking tech support, all DAZ will say is, "Sorry about making you lose all your work, kid". Way to back it up, dudes.
Can anyone do their job for them, please? I've still got a bunch of built layered files that I can't use because someone decided not to finish what they started.
A step-by-step solution for someone who tends to stumble his way to a solution would result in the burning of incense and the slaying of the fatted calf... :)
Here's the actual state of things as far as I know it.
1. The bug with blend modes was fixed (not sure for which version of DS, but it is now).
2. The way empty areas are handled will not be changed. The way it was done in DS3 is now considered a bug.
This implies that old materials with overlays from my Perfect Tan Line script will not work in DS 4 or future versions. Also, the script has to be updated with full size image maps for the overlays (or maybe by doing the overlays with shader builder instead of LIE). I'm rather busy at the moment, but I promise I will do it this year. (That's better than "soon", isn't it?)
I updated my DS tanline products. They now include 2 scripts. The DS3 version will work in DAZ Studio 3 and 4.0. The DS4 version will work in DAZ Studio 4.6.1 and up. DAZ Studio 4.5 and 4.6.0 are not supported because the Layered Image Editor is not working correctly for these versions. Because of changes in DAZ Studio, tanlines created with the DS3 script will still not work in DAZ Studio 4.6.1.
Customers of the tanlines for V4 can download the updates at Renderosity. Customers of the V3 version will receive a notification with a download link (requires to allow Renderosity to send notifications) or may contact me for the update.
I apologize that the scripts could not be used for a rather long time. I hope that all bugs are fixed now in Layered Image Editor and there will be no more changes, so that the actual update will keep working in future versions of DAZ Studio.
Sorry, wait until the update at Renderosity has _UD2_ in its name ... I just found and fixed a bug I made in the update.
The update for the update is out. Be sure you have version 1.11, not 1.1.

Henry Hager, the husband of former first daughter Jenna Bush Hager, is entitled to a $296 property tax discount on his South Baltimore rowhouse for the current tax year, the state Department of Assessments and Taxation says.
An article Tuesday in The Baltimore Sun questioned the validity of Hager's homestead credit for the year that began July 1. The credit program is supposed to be available only to owner-occupants, and Hager has rented out the house since August — nearly the entire tax year. Last week, Owen C. Charles, deputy director of the assessments agency, said the agency might ask Baltimore's property registration office to investigate.
But state officials said Wednesday that a homeowner qualifies for the homestead credit if he or she resides in a home at least six months of the relevant calendar year — in this case 2011 — and also lives there on July 1, the first day of the tax year. Hager says he lived in the house in the 1300 block of S.Charles St. through July.
"The bottom line is, the way the department processed it, we were totally correct, and Mr. Hager was entitled to that credit" for 2011-2012, said Robert E. Young, director of the assessments agency.
Young's staff informed Hager of his eligibility when he called this week seeking to repay what he thought was an undeserved break, based on information from The Sun.
Hager bought the house in March 2008, and the Hagers moved in after their wedding that May. They reportedly moved to New York in December 2010, putting the house up for sale. The state, tipped to their departure by property tax watchdog Matt Gonter, removed the credit for the 2010-11 tax year.
The agency soon restored the credit, however, after Hager notified officials in January 2011 that he still lived there. Hager says he worked during the week at Constellation Energy's Baltimore office and went to New York on weekends to be with his wife, a "Today" show correspondent.
It is not clear why the agency's Baltimore office temporarily removed the 2010-2011 credit, given that Hager would have satisfied both the six-month and the July 1 residency requirements. Young said his understanding is that "someone at the city office made the judgment to remove it" and that Hager was given 30 days to respond. Unless the Hagers move back into the house by July 1, they will lose the homestead credit for the coming tax year.

I recall someone posting on here from Sakkara claiming to have received in the ballpark of 3000 (my friend got that much in 2000)...perhaps even a bit lower. Ok, I'm no Choueifat stooge!!! But they did pay us in dollars and our salaries were written in dollars. That meant that as the poor EGyptian pound floated, our salaries increased (without TOO much increase in the cost of goods). I think we all started around 5200 LE/month and buy the end of the contract, we taking in equivalent to almost 8000. I think 6000 LE/month would be a nice salary....considering you'll be paying your own rent (at least sharing) this would work. Be prepared to except less in smaller language schools and adult ESL work.

I am presently only looking to live rather comfortably in Cairo during my time there, with no plans for saving or other activities. If 6000 LE is the "good standard" for native speakers with experience, then I feel like I should aim for this given that I am a native speaker with experience (albeit one that has yet to land in Egypt. ha!) As stated earlier, I am sitting on only a BA. VS, your prior posts have leant me a great deal of insight, thank you. I now, however, find you asserting that you suspect that Sakkara "tells you what the pay will be and you take it or leave it". I started this thread reagarding what to request from Sakkara because they ask the inquiring teacher to state his/her expected salary. The language of their ad on this site asks me to state what I would like/expect to earn. Perhaps ultimately they will tell me what they will pay but the stage that I am at with them (namely, the application stage), specifically mentions that one include his/her expected salary in the cover letter. Given that you are so quick to tell new posters to check past threads/postings, I would hope that you are already aware of what kind of "negotion leeway" I have given my (twice) aforementioned qualifications. Perhaps you could humor me and throw out a ballpark figure? stoth1972, 5200 LE is a nice starting wage but it's a far cry from the 1600USD you mentioned earlier in this forum. 8000 LE is close but that's probably quite a long shot for someone with my qualifications. Perhaps I should restate my original question: What should someone with a BA, TEFL, and 1 year experience, ask for in their first contact with Sakkara? Back to top TravellingTJoined: 20 Jun 2006Posts: 15Location: Canada Posted: Thu Jul 20, 2006 2:22 pm Post subject: salaries at Sakkara the normal salary at Sakkara is 3100LE and no more. That doen't matter what level of experience you have. I had a Bachelors degree, TEFL and over 3 years experience. The good part about Sakkara is that they pay airfare (reimbursed at mid-year for half and the other half upon completion), housing (shared), and you get 2 weeks paid vacation at the end of your contract. AND you are always paid on time which is nice. You can try to negotiate but if you expect to get 6000LE to be a teacher there you're wasting your time. It will never happen. I'd suggest Choueifat as they get paid in dollars (approx. 1400USD a month and then LE for the remainder of their salary) and they will hire foreigners without B. Ed. If you aren't looking to save money or to travel abroad then you can easily travel around Egypt on the Sakkara salary. Get yourself a few private on the side if you want soem extra cash - the kids are always in need of them there.

Well, if you read my previous posts, you would know that I never recommend negotiation as I don't know of any who were able to do it and actually get a higher salary. (unless they have exceptional credentials) What you put on your application is normally irrelevent... and that is true at pretty much all educational institutions in the ME. They will offer you what they are paying the rest of the teachers... As I recall, the number has been mentioned numerous times on threads here... Just as the other posters have confirmed.

VS Back to top stoth1972Joined: 16 May 2003Posts: 674Location: Seattle, Washington Posted: Thu Jul 20, 2006 4:18 pm Post subject: Jonny, like I said, ISC paid in dollar equiv. That means that 5200 was based on the pound to dollar exchange at that time. While I took home $1600/month equivalent, my friends at Sakkara took home$800 equivalent. This might change, though many schools like Choueifat and Sakkara do not have a history of negotiating. I had worked for Choueifat 1 year prior to taking my contract, so it's quite possible that i earned a small bit more than my colleagues...but not much, I'm sure. My friend who worked at Sakkara at the time i was there said she was asked what she expected in a salary before they made that offer, and it was a lot more than what they offered. (We actually met on this very forum before we both left for Egypt!) I think VS is right-most places in the MIddle East don't do a lot of negotiating, and if they do, the variation between your salary and a colleague's will be slight. I think 6000 LE is a reasonable amount of money to expect in Cairo for teaching in an international school, but perhaps a bit high for someone teaching in a language school. One last thing: I've mentioned the visa thing with Sakkara before. My friend said her passport had a stamp in it that said "in progress" but she never received her residency/work visa. Everytime she left the country, she had to pay a fine to extend her visitor's visa (probably around $20). Like I said, this makes travelling around Egypt a little less glitzy: no hotels at the local rate, and the airfare is 3 times the cost of a domestic ticket for a resident or local.

Back to top xnihil73Joined: 26 Jul 2006Posts: 3Location: Cairo Posted: Wed Jul 26, 2006 9:50 pm Post subject: For the last few years, I think Sakkara has been getting visas for their teachers. But if your wife is here on a work visa, you won't need to worry about travel costs, since you can be here on hers. One thing that people don't mention vis a vis ISC and Sakkara is that, while ISC pays ALOT more, their curriculum and methodology is REALLY bad. I hear they give standardized tests and almost every teaching moment is already mapped out. This give's it a very good reputation here in test-loving Egypt, but the kids don't get much of an education, in my opinion. Sakkara has a lot of problems, but aside from the ministry requirements, the teachers have a lot of leeway to teach in the way they see fit. My friend, who worked there (and then went on to a better paying job at an international school) loved teaching there. She also felt that the administration really cared about the students. I guess the bottom line is, if you need (or want) the extra money, get the best paying job you can. But I wouldn't feel too bad about working there. Its a nice, very human place. And everything said on here about salary is pretty accurate. Expect about 3000+ regardless of qualifications.

This give's it a very good reputation here in test-loving Egypt, but the kids don't get much of an education, in my opinion. Mapped out is correct. You do not get out of teaching the material they want covered on the day or during the week they want it covered. Ideally, you use their system of teaching (or seem to use their system of teaching). I taught KG2, Grade 2 and Grade 3. I always managed to find time to tie an extra art lesson into the curriculum. The exams are highly structured and as mentioned by the previous poster, very appealing to Egyptian parents. It is not well-rounded, in my opinion (you might find time to squeeze in a creative writing exercise since so little//none of the curriculum is dedicated to this). I would not, however, say that it isn't an education. The maths and science standards are through the roof. Parents love that their kids excel in these two areas. Lots of these kids go on to AUC and some American/British unis and major in things like Engineering and Pre-Med. Not many of them are liberal arts grads, that's for sure. I would personally not choose this education for my own children, but lots of parents in the Middle East think it's the best, despite you telling them it's a burnout for their kids. It's a business that appeals to the Middle Eastern approach towards education. The saddest part is children with learning challenges who's parents refuse to take them out (and the school rarely kicks kids out). It's also sad for kids who are intelligent, but not great test takers. Saying all of that, if you're class is running well and parents are not complaining, you typically won't be hounded (left alone for the most part). That seems to satisfy most administrators. This is a good job for someone without much experience-good to learn classroom management skills (TRUE TEST OF THAT THE HIGHER THE GRADE LEVEL) with little focus on lesson planning. This is also a good job for the 'teacher' who does not enjoy lesson planning. Generally, I would say this is not for the seasoned veteran, but I certainly encountered a good few qualified teachers who took learning the SABIS system as a challenge. For me, the challenge was trying to make the classes fun and valuable for kids, whilst still covering the material. It's quite easy to go through the motions in any curriculum and this is no exception. You'll see lots of people doing the former while you're there. You'll also see colleagues who care, and put in the extra effort. It's not always robotic: At the secondary level, you might find that you're asked to help design the curriculum for a new course, depending on your experience and the needs for that year. It happened while I was there. PS Take stickers, stamps, borders for your pinboards, etc. if you'll be teaching those up to grade 4 (maybe 5-borders always come in handy and the school sometimes has them, but not always). You might also try going to the teacher's supply shop before leaving home and picking up small items that can add to your class (a spiral book of daily writing ideas). The form letters that you stick on a the wall are a life saver if you have poor handwriting. I think you're expected to decorate the pinboard through middle school, but don't quote me on that.

Facebook friend sent me a friend request from a new Facebook account. I thought that was a bit strange but accepted the request anyway. Later I queried that friend to find out that the account had been hijacked and the new friend account was an impostor. So I severed the link to the impostor.
I've had the reverse situation happen as well. A friend gets locked out of their own account by a hijacker and then they start a new one. That's a more difficult scenario. In that case a friend of his posted on his wall that he had been hijacked. The problem with that is all his other friends might not see that wall post. I emailed him, he explained the situation so I went to his wall and saw the note from the friend about the hijacking. (Now why the hijackers didn't delete that wall post I'll never know.)
Beware of Multiple Facebook Accounts
If you are already Facebook friends with somone and then you receive a request from a different account, use caution! Post a note to their wall or send emails to both accounts. Ask for an explanation. One of the accounts will likely give you an explanation that sounds plausible. It's so easy so accept a friend request from a name that you are familiar with. Sometimes you forget to check that you are already Facebook friends with someone. Especially when you see other friends have already accepted the second account. Staying on top of this will protect you from unnecessary exposure to account hijackers.
Heads up to All My Facebook Friends
Just a heads up to all my Facebook friends - if I get a second account request from you I won't accept it without an explanation. I've got to stay safe too. Be on the lookout for my emails/wall posts and let me know what's up.
I got another such request from someone this morning. I immediately wrote on their wall and emailed back the second account request. I got a quick email reply but it didn't address why they created a second account. I sent a second email that said "I can't accept this friend request until I hear back from your other account. Two accounts is suspicious." I didn't get any reply to that. And still no response to my wall post. My apologies to this Facebook friend if it is legitimate but until I know for sure I'm in wait and see mode.
Stay alert and stay cautious folks!

Beware of Multiple Facebook Accounts!

why hijack and account in the 1st place? Don't understand. Please fill me in on this.ReplyDelete
Honestly, I'm not really sure why someone would want to hijack a Facebook account. I've heard of many instances where people hijack an account and then use instant messaging to try get money from the friends. This is the old "I'm stuck in London with no cash can you please wire me some" scenario. I'm guessing people take over other people's accounts to do these kind of shenanigans.ReplyDelete

smachimo necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 81 diseños de 20 diseñadores freelance.
I'm a programmer without artistic talent, and that's where you come in. I built a website to support my hobby and I'm getting ready to launch it.
I'm targeting nostalgic gamers and collectors, with an emphasis on older generation gaming systems. Think Nintendo NES or Sega Master System.
These are the main points of what I'm looking for:
- Horizontal design with width of approximately 700px and height no larger than 300px.
- The logo should be just the word "Gamogora", capitalization is up to you.
- I would like the logo font to be made up of over-sized pixels with black borders. See the attached file 3ddot.jpg to get an idea.
- Color scheme: I envisioned big white pixels with black borders, but I'm also open to colorized pixels. So have fun with it!
- Please leave the logo's background transparent so that the logo may be placed on other images.
It's not required, but feel free to improvise additional graphics in the 8-bit pixel art style to complement your logo. I'll do my best to provide prompt feedback on each entry. Also if you feel you have a design idea that isn't in pixel art style, feel free to message me.
*Edit (Aug 12): I just wanted to clarify for those still thinking about entering that I envisioned a logo where the individual pixels are bordered with a contrasting color, not just the letters. The pixels don't necessarily have to be perfectly square, they can be rounded.

Looks like the bosses at Fiat have backpedaled from yesterday's grim assessment of the storied Lancia brand.
The folks at Motor Trend report that Chrysler spokesman Scott Brown clarified remarks made by Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne.
"What was said by Marchionne is that Lancia Epsilon will continue to be made in Italy and the rest of Lancia portfolio will be developed together with the Chrysler Brand and those vehicles will be made in North America," said Brown, "A development has been announced, NOT the end of Lancia."
Really good news for classic rally fans and Gran Turismo players, underwhelming news for anyone who realizes that their current lineup is 50 percent re-badged Chryslers.

Guaranteed Tip Sheet
Horse racing handicapper wanting to share my winning picks with the public. My tip sheets will come with a money back guarantee. If you don't make some money, why should we?
Horse racing enthusiasts to the occasional bettor. Mostly male, ages 18-70. Do not discount female readers.
I'm looking for a one-page design template. The homepage design is the most important and should really catch the reader's eye and come across as very professional and easy to follow. The biggest thing we want to convey is our money back guarantee. We already have a logo from a previous contest. I like two different versions of the logo. You are welcome to choose either one based on the style of your design. Please incorporate the colors from the logo in the overall design.
In terms of design, I really like the simple, yet elegant look of a site like http://www.getfirefox.com. It shouldn't be overly crowded, just the basics to get the job done.
In terms of functionality, this is an e-commerce site which sells horse racing tip sheets for multiple racetracks per day. Users have the option of creating an account so there should be login/signup areas within the design. I'd like a place to showcase previous winning days with amounts, etc. There should be a way to download a SAMPLE tip sheet and then listings for our current products.
Functionality will be similar to http://www.brisnet.com/cgi-bin/trk_…rt.cgi?wds and http://www.winningponies.com.
IMPORTANT: I also need a MOBILE version of this design created for tipsheet.mobi. I'd like a graphic and link showcasing our mobile version of the site somewhere near the top of the page. The mobile version should be very basic and fit on a iPhone, etc.

Fingal Ferguson hand made knives
I was born and raised on our farm in Gubbeen, in West Cork, Ireland.
For as far back as I can remember, I have had a passion for knives. At a young age, I inherited my uncle's collection of knives – a beautiful selection from his travels around the world. Growing up on the farm, I learned that for every job there was a knife, and a good, solid knife was always an essential tool. I've now been a butcher for the past 18 years, and again, knives play a vital role in my working life!
All my life I've been surrounded by artists and artisans, and thanks to them I came to understand that importance of quality in one's work is always appreciated. The more so when tools like knives are designed with functionality as the guiding factor. My aim, as a knife-maker, is to make knives that work for the purpose and the user, are comfortable and sharp, and are also pleasing to the eye.
Some of these knives can take days to develop, and I hope that the care and passion I put into each and every single piece will show.

Thread: Making Americans Unsafe
#1 Making Americans Unsafe07-18-2008, 08:01 PM
If there are really a million potential terrorists in this country...then we are already screwed.
I may not agree with his stance on the ACLU, but when top notch conservative writers like Roberts, start championing the ACLU for being right on something...we have gone astray. This administration is a joke. I can't stand the conservative name being a laughing stock. Oy vey!
The Bush Regimes "terrorist" protection schemes have reached the height of total incompetence and utter absurdity. According to the American Civil Liberties Union, a private organization that defends the US Constitution that inattentive Americans neglect, there are now one million names on the "terrorist" watch list.
One of them is that of former Assistant US Attorney General Jim Robinson, whose top security clearances are current. Every time Mr. Robinson flies away on business, he is delayed by a totally incompetent "terrorist" protection racket that cannot tell a person named Jim Robinson, who served in the highest echelons of the US government, from a Muslim terrorist.
What confidence can we have in a regime that is incapable of differentiating an Assistant US Attorney General from a terrorist?
Mr. Robinson said: "If I were convinced that America is a safer place because I get hassled at the airport, I might put up with it, but I doubt it. I expect my story is similar to hundreds of thousands of people who are on this list and find themselves inconvenienced."
"Hundreds of thousands of people" on a watch list that they have no business being on?
Yes. "Members of Congress, nuns, war heroes and other suspicious characters, with names like Robert Johnson and Gary Smith, have become trapped in the Kafkaesque clutches of this list, with little hope of escape," said Caroline Fredrickson, director of the ACLU Washington Legislative Office.
And this is America, not Nazi Germany?
How can Airport "Security" possibly....Gun Control: The theory that a woman found dead in an alley, raped and strangled with her panty hose, is somehow morally superior to a woman explaining to police how her attacker got that fatal bullet wound - Unknown

Here are comments from Darrell Powe following his signing with the Flyers:
Q: What is your reaction after signing with the Flyers?
DP: "Obviously, I am very excited. The Flyers are a great organization. They have been good to me all along so to sign back with the Flyers is exactly what I want and I look forward to next season."
Q: Speaking of next season, what are the expectations of this team?
DP: "We expect to go all the way next season. We have a good team coming in and we all got a taste of things last year. We should all be motivated to get back where we were last year and finish the job this time."
Q: What can you say about Philadelphia's offseason acquisitions?
DP: "I think they are going to help our team. We've added some size and a little bit of finesse out there. These will be a couple of more pieces to the puzzle and will hopefully help us get to where we were last year."
UPDATED: Along with confirming the Powe signed, the Flyers announced they have signed three others to contracts: defenseman Dan Jancevski and forwards Matt Clackson and David Laliberte.
Laliberte, 24, recorded 46 points (18G,28A) in 66 games with the Adirondack Phantoms, in the AHL, and had three points in 11 games with the Flyers.
Clackson, 25, spent the entire season with Adirondack, where he posted six points (2G,4A) and 174 penalty minutes in 60 games with the Phantoms.
Jancevski, 29, appeared in 78 regular season games with the Texas Stars, the Dallas Stars' AHL affiliate, where he recorded 23 points (3G,20A) and 71 penalty minutes.
The Flyers and restricted free agent forward Darroll Powe agreed to a one-year deal yesterday, the Daily News has learned.
Powe, 25, will earn $725,000 for the upcoming season in a one-way contract – meaning the Flyers plan to have him on their roster throughout the season. It's a 36-percent raise from the $532,500 he earned last year.
Powe will be a restricted free agent again next season.
Last season, the Princeton University graduate and scrappy forward posted 9 goals and 6 assists for 15 points over 63 games. He missed 19 games with a dislocated right shoulder last November and December. He also played in all 23 playoff games.
Powe's signing likely rounds out the Flyers' depth chart at the forward position, giving coach Peter Laviolette 14 forwards to manage in training camp. With Blair Betts likely not available at the start of the season because of an offseason shoulder surgery, Powe would fit in the top 12 in Betts' absence. That would leave room for Riley Cote as the extra forward until Betts can return.
With 14 forwards, 8 defensemen and 2 goalies – at least two players more than the Flyers need to carry – they have approximately $327,737 remaining in salary cap space.
Check back on Frequent Flyers later in the day for some exciting news regarding the 2010 class of the United States Hockey Hall of Fame.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. - Mike Carp connected for a pinch-hit grand slam in the 10th inning and AL East-leading Boston beat Tampa Bay 7-3 on Wednesday night.
Carp sent a drive over the centre-field fence on the first pitch from Roberto Hernandez. It was the first pinch-hit grand slam for Boston since Kevin Millar hit one at Milwaukee on June 7, 2003.
Dustin Pedroia opened the 10th with a walk against Joel Peralta (2-7) and went to second on Shane Victorino's bunt. After David Ortiz was intentionally walked, Hernandez replaced Peralta and walked Mike Napoli on four pitches before Carp connected for his ninth homer.
Boston closer Koji Uehara (4-0) struck out two during a perfect ninth. He has retired his last 34 batters.
James Loney homered for the Rays, who trail the Red Sox by 9 1/2 games in the division race, to tie it in the eighth. Tampa Bay, which has lost 13 of 17, saw its lead drop to one game over New York for the second AL wild-card spot.
BALTIMORE (AP) — Robinson Cano hit a tiebreaking homer leading off the ninth inning, and New York also got solo shots from Alex Rodriguez and Curtis Granderson.
The Yankees moved past Baltimore and Cleveland in the AL wild-card hunt. New York has hit eight home runs in winning two of three in the four-game series that concludes Thursday night.
The Yankees trailed 3-1 before Granderson homered in the fifth — New York's first hit — and Rodriguez tied it in the sixth with his 653rd career home run.
In the ninth, after Cano connected off Tommy Hunter (4-4), Granderson tripled with one out and scored on an infield hit by Lyle Overbay.
David Robertson (5-1) worked the eighth and Mariano Rivera gave up a run-scoring single to Brian Roberts before securing his 43rd save, tied for the major league lead with Baltimore's Jim Johnson.
Chris Davis drove in two runs with a double, making him the first player in Orioles history to have 40 doubles and 40 homers in a season. Danny Valencia tied a career high with four hits, and Roberts had three singles.
Baltimore outhit New York 13-6.
Before the game, the Yankees announced that shortstop Derek Jeter would miss the rest of the season with an injured left ankle. The Yankees captain played in only 17 games this season and made four trips to the disabled list.
CHICAGO (AP) — Anibal Sanchez struck out 10 for Detroit.
Sanchez (14-7) allowed five hits and walked four in 7 1-3 innings while lowering his AL-best ERA to 2.50. Joaquin Benoit got three outs for his 18th save in as many opportunities, completing a five-hitter for Detroit's 11th shutout of the season.
Omar Infante drove in the game's only run with a two-out single against Matt Lindstrom (2-4) in the eighth inning.
White Sox left-hander Jose Quintana pitched seven innings of five-hit ball. He remained winless over his last five starts despite a 3.03 ERA.
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Jed Lowrie's foul ball that turned into a two-run double after umpires changed the call highlighted a 10-run fourth inning for Oakland.
Every Oakland starter had at least one hit, one run and one RBI as the A's recorded a season-high 22 hits and extended their lead over Texas in the AL West to three games.
Lowrie, Coco Crisp and Stephen Vogt also homered. Yoenis Cespedes had three RBIs to help the A's score their most runs in a game since beating Boston 20-2 on Aug. 31, 2012.
With runners on second and third and three runs already in, Lowrie lined a ball down the line in the fourth that first-base umpire Bill Miller ruled foul as he danced out of the way.
Lowrie pointed at the ground inside the white line where he thought the ball hit. Oakland manager Bob Melvin came out to argue, and Lowrie was eventually awarded a two-run double after the entire umpire crew huddled and changed the call.
Twins manager Ron Gardenhire was ejected by Miller after a long argument.
Sonny Gray (3-3), who had received fewer than four runs of support over his last six starts, struck out seven in five innings for the win.
In the fifth, Josh Reddick of the A's drove a ball off the top of the wall in the right-field corner that Miller ruled a home run.
The call was overturned after a replay review — the first at Target Field this season — and Reddick had to trot back out of the dugout to second base.
Mike Pelfrey (5-12) was removed with no outs in the fourth. He allowed seven runs and eight hits and has won just once since July 11.
CLEVELAND (AP) — Alex Gordon homered on the game's first pitch and Kansas City's James Shields dominated after a shaky first inning.
Kansas City took two of three in the series between clubs that are in contention for the second wild card spot in the AL. The Royals, who entered Wednesday trailing Tampa Bay by three games, moved a game closer to the Indians. Cleveland was 1 1/2 games behind the Rays.
The Royals had a home run, a triple and a single on the game's first seven pitches to take a 2-0 lead.
Shields (11-9) gave up two runs, two hits, and hit a batter in the bottom half of the first before taking control.
Michael Brantley had a two-run single in the first, but Shields didn't allow another hit until Jason Kipnis' leadoff single in the ninth.
Shields allowed four hits, struck out seven and walked one. Greg Holland retired the last three hitters for his 42nd save.
Scott Kazmir (8-8) allowed four runs and nine hits in four innings.
TORONTO (AP) — Kole Calhoun hit a tiebreaking sacrifice fly in the eighth inning and C.J. Wilson won his eighth straight decision for Los Angeles.
Mark Trumbo hit a two-run home run, his career-high 33rd, and Josh Hamilton had three hits as the Angels won for the ninth time in 12 meetings with the Blue Jays.
Mike Trout drew a one-out walk off Steve Delabar (5-3) in the eighth and went to third on Hamilton's double. Trumbo was intentionally walked to load the bases for Calhoun, who hit a sacrifice fly to left.
Calhoun went 1 for 2 with two sacrifice flies, helping the Angels win for the fifth time in seven games.
Wilson (16-6) allowed four runs, three earned, in seven innings to match his career-high in victories, first set with Texas in 2011. The left-hander, who has not lost since July 5 against Boston, walked four and struck out six. He's 12-1 with a 3.02 ERA in 17 starts since June 14.
Ernesto Frieri worked the ninth for his 32nd save.
Moises Sierra went 3 for 4 with two doubles and a triple for the Blue Jays.
SEATTLE (AP) — Brad Peacock gave up one run in six innings and Chris Carter singled in two runs to lead Houston to the three-game sweep.
Kendrys Morales hit the 100th home run of his career for Seattle, which has lost four straight at home.
Peacock (5-5) allowed four hits, struck out four, walked one and retired the final nine batters he faced. Josh Zeid got out of an eighth-inning jam and finished the ninth for his first career save.
Brandon Maurer (4-8) allowed five runs — all scoring with two outs — and seven hits in three innings. It was the first major league start for Maurer since May 28. He was pressed into duty to replace ace Felix Hernandez, who was originally scheduled for the start but was scratched Monday with a minor oblique strain.
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Clint Barmes homered and drew a bases-loaded walk as Pittsburgh completed a three-game sweep in an interleague matchup of wild-card leaders.
Justin Morneau, acquired from Minnesota less than two weeks ago, snapped an 0-for-14 slump with four hits while scoring twice for the Pirates.
Texas has lost nine of its last 12, a stretch in which the Rangers have lost four consecutive series. They have gone from a three-game lead in the AL West to entering Wednesday 2 1/2 games behind Oakland.
A.J. Burnett (8-10) struck out seven in 6 1-3 innings, though he faded late after retiring the first 13 batters he faced.

Student or Learner
Dear teacher,
which of the preposition is correct in the following sentence?
Mr Johnson is the one who/whom was chosen to be the chairman of the company.
I am having difficulty differentiating objective from subjective
Thank you
thank you for your answer. Can you please give me with the objective and subjective modes ? I realize the understanding of those principles have an impact on how to use who and whom. Thank you.
I would guess that the vast majority of native speakers never use the word "whom," unless they are reciting some set phrase (like "for whom the bell tolls") or being deliberately formal.
If you want to speak like a native, forget the word exists.
That said, if the word you are looking for is the actor of a verb, then it is the subject. Use "who" like you would use "he" or "I."
Who wants some ice cream? I want some ice cream.
If the word is the thing being acted upon by a verb, or the object of a preposition, then it is an object. Use "whom" like you would "him" or "me."
Give the ball to me. To whom should I give the ball?
May this non-teacher commend you for wanting to know the difference between "who" and "whom."
I hope that you will continue to study the difference until you are able to use those two words -- especially in
I think that I am able to use it correctly most (not all) of the time.
It is only my opinion that knowing the difference will add to your self-confidence in using the language and that many
readers will respect you for showing that you know the difference.
Obviously, in a post it is impossible to discuss such a difficult topic.
May I just leave you with three points?
1. If it is the subject, you must use it:
a. I am pretty sure that I know the name of the candidate who will win the election on November 6.
i. Obviously, you could not say: I am pretty sure that I know the name of the candidate will win ....
2. If it is the object, then you can omit it sometimes.
a. I know the name of the girl whom you love.
i. You could say: I know the name of the girl you love.
3. But if it is the object of a preposition, you cannot omit it:
a. Whom do you live with? With whom do you live? (That is: You do live with whom.)
Remember: ***** NOT A TEACHER *****
I think the only time whom is required nowadays is after a preposition - to whom it may concern. The rest of the time, it's optional. I use it in formal language and rarely elsewhere.
Mr Johnson is the one who was chosen to be the chairman of the company.
I prefer who instead whom.
who and whom are both refer to people.
who refers to the subject, whereas whom refers to the object.

Olga came by the house looking to stay in the vacant room in the back. She emailed the hunter and told him that she had a kid and needed a place to stay. Once she got there, he told her the price, and she wanted to negotiate it. Olga placed her hand on his knee and began rubbing his leg. The hunter told her she could get a better price for some sucking and fucking. She agreed, and the hunter unleashed those giant milky tits. He squeezed her nipples, and that got her hot. Olga bent over and got her pussy and ass munched on. She sucked that cock as her huge jugs bounced all over the place. Then Olga got her pussy drilled and got that man juice all over her face.

The advances in electronic publishing, pioneered by JBC in 1995, allow us to present proudly some of the many seminal articles published since the Journal's founding in 1905. The papers, which are reprinted in their original form, are accompanied by a biographical introduction and brief summary of the article. When completed, the series will contain over 300 original papers by many of the legends in biological chemistry including Folin, Van Slyke, the Coris, Doisy, McCollum, Hastings, Lowry, Kornberg, Kennedy, Brown, Goldstein, and many more.
The past century has seen countless scientific advances that have reshaped the fields of biochemistry and molecular biology. To recognize these achievements and the incredible scientists behind them, JBC offers 'Reflections,' a series of articles authored by the biochemists and molecular biologists whose contributions have left significant and lasting marks in the field. Although the Reflections were initiated in honor of the JBC Centenary in 2005, they have become a popular permanent fixture of the journal. All Reflections are invited articles by respected and recognized researchers on a topic of their choosing. It is our hope that the personal experiences encapsulated in these articles will, in small part, capture some of the history, unpredictability, and wonder of biochemistry.

COOKEVILLE, Tenn. - After opening up Ohio Valley Conference play
with a split against two of the top teams in the league, the
Tennessee Tech soccer team will hit the road for the first time in
conference play. Tech will face Eastern Kentucky on Oct. 2 in
Richmond, Ky., before returning home to take on Morehead State on
Oct. 4 in Cookeville.
The Golden Eagles are coming off a 1-0 double-overtime win over UT Martin on Oct. 25, and a 3-1 loss to Murray State on Sept. 27.
"I think that the girls are excited that conference play has started, and they're really excited to be going into this weekend," head coach Becky Fletcher said. "We split 1-1 with the top two ranked teams preseason, so it was a good weekend for us. There are still some things that we need to focus on to get better. I still don't feel like we've put together a full 90 minutes."
The Golden Eagles look to take the all-time series edge against EKU Friday as the teams head into the week all square at 2-2 in four all-time meetings. The Colonels are one of five teams in the OVC to head into the second week of the conference season at .500 (TTU, 1-1-0; UTM, 1-1-0, SEMO, 0-0-1; EIU, 0-0-1; EKU, 0-0-1).
Tech defeated the Colonels 2-1 in overtime in Cookeville a season ago. EKU was picked to finish fourth in the OVC, one spot ahead of Tech, and received two first-place votes in the 2009 preseason poll.
Tech will return to Cookeville to wrap up the weekend on Sunday when they host a Morehead State team picked to finish second in the OVC. The Golden Eagles have not beaten MSU since 2003, going 0-4-1 in that time.
Morehead's Jillian Birchmeier led the OVC with nine goals and 21 points in 2008, and is currently second in goals in 2009 with five and third in points with 11.
Eastern Kentucky enters the week at 3-6-1 overall and 0-0-1 in OVC play, while Morehead State is 4-6-1 overall and 1-0-0 in conference play.
"I feel that they're records don't reflect the quality of teams that they are," Fletcher said. "EKU plays very good soccer. Both of them are quality soccer teams and we have a lot of respect for both programs."
Morehead State will be the fourth team that advanced to the 2008 NCAA tournament that Tech will face in 2009. MSU earned an automatic bid to the tournament after winning the OVC tournament as the No. 3 seed a season ago.
"The parity in our conference is unreal. I think every game we are going to be fighting tooth and nail for every inch," Fletcher said. "We're definitely expecting this weekend to be just as tough as last weekend."
Freshman Andrea Meloff leads the Golden Eagles with four goals and eight points this season. She is the only Golden Eagle to have a multi-goal game this season, as she scored twice against Alabama State.
Fellow freshman Kris Cambron has three goals and an assist this season, and is second on the team with seven points. Kerri Reid leads the Golden Eagles with two assists on the season.
Sophomore goalkeeper Kaitlyn Thacker, who is already fourth on Tech's all-time career saves list, has 54 saves on the season and 175 in her career. Thacker's 54 saves rank second in the OVC, despite the fact that she shared time with freshman keeper Megan Polk earlier in the year. Thacker also ranks third in the league in save percentage at .809.
The Golden Eagles will stay at home next week to wrap up their 2009 home schedule. Tech will host a non-conference match up with Longwood on Thursday, Oct. 8 before welcoming OVC rival Austin Peay to Cookeville on Oct. 11 for the home finale. That match will be Tech's senior day, were TTU's lone senior Brittany Rogers, a four-year player for Tech, will be honored before the match.
Admission to all Tech home soccer matches is free.

Natural Remedies to keep you on the top side of Healthy!!
The bright crimson leaves of Autumn remind us this is a season of letting go — releasing and preparing ourselves for the arriving cold season. Yes - the winds of change, biting frost and visible breath billowing out to lead our steps are all part of the Joy of the Season and even more reason to appreciate the Wisdom and Beauty of Nature.

Inspiration Mondays: Alex Katz in Maine
Posted by

Lincolnville Harbor 1994
One of my favorite museums is The Farnsworth Museum in Rockland, Maine, and it was there I first discovered the work of Alex Katz, whose studio is nearby in Lincolnville. I wandered into a room and watched a movie of this man painting birch trees on a huge canvas. I loved watching his energy and how quickly he was able to assess which move he was going to make next. I can't really describe it better than Sanford Schwartz does in this book:
Katz has always been so clear and forceful about his goals, and those goals are such a fine blend of the naturalistic, the abstract and the theatrical, that literally where he works can seem a little beside the point. But the possibility that, in some slight degree, Lincolnville lets him connect with a freer self adds a wrinkle of feeling to the pictures he makes there.

Flax bike at a Fort
At the Bicentennial Park in Tukwila, where this fort is, stopped for break and to take this photo. Been a year since I'd ridden the Museeuw and was quickly reminded how well it rides. It's the extended chainstays and the two fingers you can put between them and the hub. They cantilever the bumps just enough and then spring back into action when you stomp on the pedals.
Wish Museeuw would've sold better in the Pacific Northwest, cause this bike is made for the roads we ride here. Maybe if they're marketed it as a Fondo bike for a Hard Man without gimmicks, elastomers, or springs? Cause it's all the layup and flax blend.…

David Cross, 44, and Amber Tamblyn, 25, long rumored to be hooking up, made a public appearance as a couple earlier this week whilst out walking an adorable doggie. Apparently he's getting into her Traveling Pants! • Kim Kardashian and Carmen Electra were spotted wrasslin in their skivvies as part of the "plot" of the upcoming film Disaster Movie, sure to be an Oscar contender. • Beyoncé was seen wearing an Obama T-shirt while out and about with hubby Jay-Z. "Change Clothes" indeed. [Bauer-Griffin Online, A Socialite's Life, People]

Inspired by conversations on the Food52 Hotline, we're sharing tips and tricks that make navigating all of our kitchens easier and more fun.
Today: We're showing you the basics of breading -- without the mess.
Remember your last bite of perfect, fried chicken? A crunchy, slightly salty crust delicately cracks between your teeth, yielding a warm, flavorful and tender interior. This is the glory of breaded foods.
Knowing how to prepare breading can be the ace up your sleeve for making great party snacks and classic favorites alike. And while it's called breading, it doesn't always preclude bread crumbs. You can use cornmeal, flour, cracker crumbs, and even cereal crumbs. It's easier than it seems, and it doesn't have to turn your kitchen into a disaster area. The key lies in the organization, and the trick is in keeping your hands clean. We'll show you how by breading fontina cheese.
To start, you'll need to have bread crumbs ready. For this recipe, we're grinding up buttery croissant crumbs.
For your breading station, have each of your components ready in separate dishes: the flour (for dredging), the egg wash (whisked eggs and milk), the bread crumbs (with a little salt), and whatever you're frying up.
Now the trick to keep you clean: use your dominant hand for the wet ingredients (egg wash), and your other hand for the dry ones (flour and bread crumbs). This way, you'll bread the food, not your fingertips. We'll explain in the steps below.
First, dredge the cheese in flour with your dry hand coating it entirely (even those little nooks!) and shake off the excess. The flour ensures that the eggs adhere to the cheese. Wet eggs will not hold to slick or wet surfaces, but they will stick to flour.
Next, dunk it into the wash with your dominant, soon-to-be-wet, hand and let it soak for a couple of seconds so that the flour absorbs the egg wash. If the wash runs off, dunk again.
Now, still with your dominant hand, drop the cheese into the bread crumbs, and use your dry hand to pile on the crumbs and pat them down to coat it.
For a double-dipping, like this recipe calls for, lift the cheese out, hand it off to your wet hand, and place it back into the egg wash. Drain with your wet hand, and coat with bread crumbs again with your dry hand.
And voila, you're ready for the frying pan!

text: So I finally bought me a Jeep rubicon and are now looking for a club to join. I've downloaded the forms and was wondering if I could make a meeting one night and just bring them there with me or if I needed to mail them in first to join before showing up one night. My buddy Walter Henson from m & m collision told me about u guys.
