- 1. Diane Douglas Underwater; Frank Riggs Swimming to the Top
According to a recent Capitol Times Yellow Sheet Report titled "Underwater is a Bad Place to Be," Superintendent of Public Instruction Diane Douglas is going to have an uphill battle to get reelected.
A recent poll by GOP consultant Chris Baker shows incumbent Douglas with ratings of 15 percent favorability and a whopping 47 percent unfavorability. Another 38 percent had no opinion. "I think Diane Douglas has probably reached the point of no return," Baker told the Capitol Times reporter.
As stated in the article, "the poll surveyed 500 self-described likely voters (all of whom have voted in at least one of the last two general elections) from June 14-15, with a partisan breakdown of 35 percent Republicans, 31 percent Democrats and 33 percent independents. Of those 500 voters, 70 percent were contacted on landlines via autodial, while 30 percent were interviewed by live callers on their cell phones. The poll had a margin of error of plus-minus 4.9 percent."
This is what happens when a novice takes office with no business or executive experience.
Arizona needs a strong, tested and proven Superintendent with the right combination of executive experience, managerial skills, knowledge of education policies and practices, integrity, and judgment to lead our state's K-12 schools! That person is Frank Riggs.Click here to read more

As you complete your Primary ballot, please consider the following candidates for offices all the way from United States Senate to Town Council.

The suggestions you see here are based on voting patterns, leadership, and commitment to constitutional, conservative ideals.Click here to read more
- 3. Has YOUR Legislator been Endorsed by Pro Common Core, Anti-Parent "Stand for Children"?
Stand for Children/Arizona has just endorsed 26 candidates for the Arizona Legislature in the Primary Election on August 30. "Stand for Children Arizona does not take its endorsement process lightly. These candidates have been fully vetted to make sure they currently agree with, and will stay true to a majority of Stand's policies and educational priorities that we believe will bring the quickest results."
A review of Stand for Children/Arizona's website indicates that this group proudly supports the entire Common Core agenda, aka Arizona's College and Career Ready Standards, including AzMerit.
Stand is proud to have defeated a litany of anti-Common Core legislation, as well as other bills that parents have fought for, including the defeated SB1455. This bill would have acknowledged that parents know more than the State about what's best for their own children. These parents wanted to opt their children out of the unvalidated, secretive AzMerit. Stand would have none of it. See "Top Legislative Results."
Parents and their children suffered verbal and emotional abuse at the hands of school administrators, teachers, other parents, and other students for daring to opt out of AZMerit. Remember? See Sen. Allen calls for schools to respect parents over assessment concerns, The Schools' War On Arizona's Children: Part 1, The Schools' War on Arizona's Children: Part 2 Online Charter Schools The Schools' War on Arizona's Children: Part 3 Emotional Child Abuse.
Voters should be wary of groups that "sound" wonderful. Scratch the surface, and you discover how pro-Statist and anti-Family they truly are. Expect More Arizona is another such group. See Is Expect More Arizona in it for the Money?Click here to read more
- 4. Itasca Small for Arizona Senate (LD25): DEFEAT Bob Worsley!
Itasca Small is an official write-in candidate running against Bob Worsley in LD25. Ms. Small is a long-time supporter and activist for Arizona's sovereign rights, local control over education, and stopping the Common Core machine. She is pro-Bill of Rights, Parental Rights, and Individual Liberty. She is against the misuse of tax dollars, including subsidizing corporate welfare and taxpayer-paid entitlement programs, such as ObamaCare (Medicaid Expansion). Her campaign slogan is "Liberty Begins in our Own Backyard! SMALL for small government!"
Itasca is not a passive observer of the Arizona Legislature; rather, she has spent hundreds of hours at our State Capitol as a citizen lobbyist, defending both our U.S. Constitution and Arizona Constitution, and.educating legislators on the proper role of government.
I have known and worked with Ms. Small on many occasions. She is unapologetically passionate about her convictions. Yet, she is always open, respectful, and gracious when responding to differing views. Her humility is refreshing. See her article titled Arizona Standards Committee Working on a Faulty Premise.
States Ms. Small, "I am not a natural speaker. But God gives me the words, and, in spite of my aversion to public speaking, live audiences are usually inspired by my message. I'm thankful that God helps me to do as well as I do."
If you want a candidate who will be faithful to her Oath of Office, please write in Itasca Small for Arizona Senate (LD25).
In this short video clip from a meeting in November, 2015, she spontaneously and passionately speaks to some issues relating to Common Core.Click here to read more

- 6. Bob Worsley's Anti-Parent Votes
You will find this statement on Legislative District 25 incumbent Senator Bob Worsley's website: "Family has defined my life.." How nice…..for him and his family. But he has no respect for your family, or your fundamental liberty as a parent to "direct the upbringing, education, health care, and mental health of your children." This God-given right is honored and upheld in the Arizona Constitution. See Arizona Revised Statutes 1-601 and 1-602 explicitly protect parental rights.
Please consider Official Write-In Candidate Itasca Small, NOT Bob Worsley.
Nobody--and no entity--has the right to insert themselves between you as a responsible, caring, and protective parent and your own child. Nobody!
But that's exactly what Bob Worsley (along with his Democrat allies and arrogant RINO cronies Jeff Dial, Adam Driggs, and Steve Pierce) have been doing.
They have voted against every attempt by true conservative legislators to return our K-12 educational system to Arizona, local school districts, and parents.
Worsley and his RINO gang have repeatedly voted against parental opt-out rights. They have repeatedly voted to retain the nationalized Common Core system, including its aligned curriculum, and whatever assessments (PARCC, AZMERIT) are aligned with them. (If you haven't educated yourself about the unvalidated, federal/corporate take-over of our local K-12 schools, I suggest you begin by spending 40 minutes watching BUILDING THE MACHINE - The Common Core Documentary. You will know more about CC than 90% of elected officials at both the state and federal levels. Also read The National Common Core Standards System. Also see articles listed below.)
Bob Worsley's voting record proves beyond a shadow of doubt that he is very comfortable with Big Government, Big Corporate, and Special Interest control over the education that every Arizona child receives beginning in Kindergarten through Grade 12.
He has helped defeat excellent bills that would have allowed Arizona, local school boards, and parents determine what's best for Arizona's students. These bills include:Click here to read more
- 7. Dear Senators: "About your decision to disregard parental authority....."
The following email was sent to Arizona's senators. It is published with permission of Ms. Lisa A. Hudson (LD23), member of the Mommy Lobby. NOTE: The best response to threats to the test resistance movement is to focus your efforts, as Ms. Hudson has done, on policy makers. See These are the Senators Who Sneer at Parental Authority
Dear Senators,
As a follow-up to Ms. Christy's earlier email attaching a response to baseless threats by the Secretary of Education, John King, I would like to add a few more comments. First, I've attached another link to the press release issued by Senator Tom Reed's office. The content of the press release is very important to this discussion and I am confident all of you will take the time to read it.
Reed Stands with Students, Parents
Several other facts should be noted. First, there was some concern at the Senate Education Committee hearing that the Federal Government would withhold funding if states failed to meet the 95% threshold. That is simply not true. Pursuant to ESSA, the decision to render punitive measures for failing to meet the threshold is left entirely to the states. States decide how to deal with particular schools, including making the decision to do nothing. Note, also, under NCLB mandates, the Federal Government has NEVER withheld funding from any school. It is extremely unlikely the state would deviate from that path. Withholding education funding from Title 1 kids would be political suicide for any official hoping to survive an election cycle.Click here to read more
- 8. Please Make Phone Calls to Stop Obama's Unconstitutional Amnesty! Don't Stop Making those Phone Calls!
Please call Congress, your Arizona legislators, the Governor, and the Governor-Elect on Friday, November 21 and every day thereafter, until the following message sinks in:
"The Constitution gives Congress the power of the purse. I expect the Republicans in Congress to use it and defund anything connected with executive orders Obama issues regarding immigration. What action will you be taking on this issue?"
Arizona Legislators, Governor Brewer, and Governor-Elect Ducey:
"On Nov. 4, Arizonans approved Prop 122 , an amendment to the Arizona Constitution to reject unconstitutional federal actions. On Nov. 20, Barack Obama illegally granted amnesty to millions of illegal aliens. Not only is this an unconstitutional federal action, but it will also cost Arizona citizens incalculable taxpayer dollars. You are the firewall between Arizona citizens and a lording Obama. What actions do you intend to take?"
Follows is a list of those you should call. Be polite and be brief. You might be talking to a 20- year old intern who will only be answering the phone and keeping track of the calls.Click here to read more

It's Chemistry: Dow Chemical Becomes IOC TOP Partner; Will P&G, BMW Follow?
July 18, 2010: The International Olympic Committee said that the Dow Chemical Company has signed a deal to become the tenth member of The Olympic Partners (TOP) Program.
The agreement makes Dow an official Worldwide Olympic Partner and the official chemistry company of the Olympics through 2020. Financial terms were not disclosed. Analysts said that TOP partners pay upward of $100 million for four-year rights.
Dow, which worked with the IOC at the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, joins an elite group of IOC worldwide TOP partners, including Coca-Cola, Acer, Atos Origin, GE, McDonald's, Omega, Panasonic, Samsung and Visa. Acer, McDonald's and GE are currently signed through 2012. Atos Origin, Panasonic and Samsung are signed through 2016. Dow joins Coca-Cola, Omega and Visa as companies signed up through to 2020.
"The Olympics is a market," Dow CEO Andrew Liveris told Reuters. "This is a market and revenue opportunity that will generate $1 billion."
Insiders said that Procter & Gamble and BMW are in talks to become TOP partners in time for the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, which would equal the dozen TOP partners IOC had going into the 2008 Games. P&G is an official partner of the U.S. Olympic Committee, and BMW has a deal with the organizing committee for the 2012 London Games. Several companies opted not to renew their TOP deals that expired after the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, including Johnson & Johnson, Lenovo, Kodak and ManuLife.
Dow's pact with the IOC includes the 2012 London Games, the 2014 Olympic Winter Olympics in Sochi, the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio, the 2018 Olympic Winter Games and the 2020 Olympic Games, for which the host cities have yet to be named. As part of the agreement, Dow will also partner the IOC and the National Olympic Committees around the world.
"Dow has supported the Olympic Movement for several years, including most recently as a partner of the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games, and we are delighted it will extend its partnership to a global basis for the next decade," Gerhard Heiberg IOC Marketing Commission chairman, said in a statement. "The long-term nature of this partnership is excellent news for the Olympic Movement as a whole. As a Worldwide TOP Partner, Dow supports all of the constituents including the IOC, the Organizing Committees of the Olympic Games, the National Olympic Committees and their teams, and ultimately the athletes themselves."
According to IOC president Jacques Rogge, "We are delighted to welcome Dow to the TOP Program. As a global leader in the chemical industry and an innovator in sustainability, Dow will not only provide critical financial support to the Olympic Movement, but also bring industry-leading expertise and innovation to the Games themselves. Dow will be an important partner in making our vision for sustainability a reality."
Dow marketing support will include multi-media efforts for the 2010 Games and beyond, but was not detailed. The company said it has annual sales of $45 billion in 2009 and employs about 52,000 people worldwide.
"With our long-standing commitment to global sustainability, innovation, scientific excellence and addressing world challenges, we believe Dow is perfectly matched to the vision of the Olympic Movement, which is about peace, progress and the world coming together to celebrate our common humanity," Dow Chemical Company chairman and CEO Andrew Liveris said in a statement. "In addition, our association with the Olympic Games will present Dow with tremendous new business opportunities, making this partnership a powerful growth catalyst that comes at the right time in our company's strategic transformation."

I'm not sure. Could you give us the context? :DOriginally Posted by KM
I am not a native of English.
I came across a phase in a sentence,
"---, looking decidedly the worse for wear but yours very sincerely."
The content is about a person recalling himself when he was drunk at a party.The sentence ends at the word "sincerely".
My question is, what does "but yours very sincerely" mean in this sentence?
If you were to write this in a different way, would
"looking decidedly the worse for wear, but still charming."
be appropriate?
Please excuse my poor English.
Thank you in advance.

Drunks are often very 'sincere'- they will tell us how much they like us, etc.

Kellan Lutz, who bares his fangs as Emmett Cullen in "The Twilight Saga," is now officially a deity.
"I'm a god," the sexy vampire-turned-Calvin Klein underwear model told VMAN Magazine, referring to his latest role as the god Poseidon in next year's "Immortals."
"I like getting hurt," Kellan told the mag, explaining that he had his eyes set on action roles. "I don't have tattoos, so my bruises and scars are my tattoos."
In addition to Kellan, VMAN awarded the title of Hollywood's hottest men to four more young stars: Matthew Bomer, Noah Mills, Xavier Samuel and Ryan Kwanten.
Matthew Bomer, the cowboy criminal in USA's crime drama "White Collar," loves the challenge of taking on complicated roles.
"I like characters who aren't perfect, that's what's fun for me to play as an actor: the imperfections, the shadows" he said.
With the upcoming role as Samantha's boy toy in "Sex and The City 2," Noah Mills is climbing to the top of Hollywood's hottest actors. But the 25-year-old is wary of capitalizing on his looks.
"It's a kind of dangerous way to live your life," he told the mag about focusing on the nature of beauty. "Because at some point, it ends."
Meanwhile, Xavier Samuel, the newest cast member of "The Twilight Saga: Eclipse" was catapulted to fame when he was cast as evil vampire Riley in the third installment of the franchise. Yet, the accomplished Australian actor said that his fame wasn't exactly overnight.
"It's often the case that breaking actors have been breaking out for years," Xavier explained.
Fellow Aussie actor, Ryan Kwanten of HBO's hit series "True Blood," made waves in the role of Jason Stackhouse, but the sex-crazed, volatile character is entirely different to the actor's real life persona.
"I'm a pretty down-to-earth, private kind of guy," he said. "And this character is so impulsive, so lacking of any forethought or any kind of willpower. It's great to be constantly required to throw all caution to the wind and play someone so wild."

Local pilot survives, wife killed in Truckee plane crash
TRUCKEE, Calif. — One local woman is dead and her husband severely injured after a small plane crashed in the mountains Monday near Truckee Tahoe Airport.
A Piper PA-46 Malibu went down at about 11 a.m. roughly 6 miles southeast from the airport, in rugged and snow-covered terrain near Martis Peak at Juniper Creek, said Placer County Sheriff's Office Capt. Jeff Ausnow.
The plane's passenger, Darla Sue Farnell, 55, of Tahoe City, was pronounced dead at the scene, Ausnow confirmed late Monday.
The pilot — her husband, 70-year-old Ray Richard Farnell — suffered severe head trauma and was hospitalized at Renown Regional Medical Center in Reno in critical condition.
According to a statement from Federal Aviation Administration spokesperson Allen Kenitzer, the plane took off from Santa Ana, Calif., and crashed due to unknown circumstances en route to the Truckee airport.
A California Highway Patrol helicopter spotted wreckage around 11:50 a.m., Ausnow said; search crews reached the scene at about 1 p.m. and began rendering aid to Ray Farnell, who was transported to Renown roughly an hour later.
More than two dozen personnel from Placer County and other agencies responded, Ausnow said, utilizing snowcats, snowmobiles and aircraft to locate the wreckage.
The FAA and National Transportation Safety Board are investigating. Typically, investigations take months before probable causes are determined.
The incident marks the sixth death related to a plane crash at or near Truckee Tahoe Airport in the past decade, according to previous reports.
On Aug. 2, 2012, James R. Ungar, 66, of Yreka, Calif. — who was preparing for a humanitarian trip to Mexico — died after his Piper Comanche 250 airplane crashed into a hangar at the airport shortly after takeoff.
On June 18, 2010, Raymond Rotge, 66, of Santa Rosa, Calif., and Mack Johnston, 71, of Chewelah, Wash., were killed after crashing a home-built, single-engine Vans RV8 aircraft on approach.
On Dec. 28, 2005, Jonathan Martin, 40, and Brett Karpy, 34, both pilots for a Pennsylvania company, died after the corporate Learjet 35A they were flying crashed and exploded while attempting to land.
Monday's crash is also the 10th small-plane crash to occur at or near the airport since September 2008. Monday's incident and the 2010 and 2012 wrecks were the only three to involve fatalities.

It�s not every day that high school students get to ride in a Zodiac inflatable boat, fire a military-grade weapon or crawl around the interior of an AC-130 gunship.
HURLBURT FIELD � It�s not every day that high school students get to ride in a Zodiac inflatable boat, fire a military-grade weapon or crawl around the interior of an AC-130 gunship.
This week, though, about 40 Junior ROTC students from area high schools are tagging along with special operations airmen at Hurlburt Field as part of a summer leadership program.
�Your average high school kid doesn�t get to see this,� said retired Air Force Col. Ken Rodriguez, who oversees the program.
See photos from the program. >>
Three years ago when Rodriquez took over the program, it consisted of four hours a day in a classroom for one week.
Having just retired from Hurlburt, he knew they could do better. Hurlburt is a unique installation with a lot of opportunities not available elsewhere � and certainly not in a high school classroom.
It didn�t take long for the program to take off.
It expanded this year to students from four high schools instead of one, and dozens of airmen called him to volunteer to help.
�It�s great to be a part of this,� Rodriguez said. �You see all these men and women at Hurlburt lining up to volunteer their time to help young kids to become successful in the future and to be better citizens.�
About 18 girls and 22 boys are participating this year. That is a narrower gender split than even last year, when it was mostly boys, Rodriguez said.
The students stay at Hurlburt for the week. They rise at 5:30 a.m. for a quick breakfast and then physical training, which includes running, jumping jacks, squats, push-ups and lots of stretching.
Julianna DeSalle, a 15-year-old Navarre High School student, said Wednesday that PT had been her favorite part so far.
�Maybe that�s the athlete coming out in me,� she said.
The students continue non-stop until 9:30 p.m.
They are allowed no cell phones, video games or other distractions, Rodriquez said.
DeSalle said the discipline of the program is refreshing. She likes having a strict schedule.
The students� daily activities include a map and compass course with the tactical air control party school, riding in Zodiac boats and attending a course on the dynamics of international terrorism. They also participate in emergency medical response training and explore the inside one of the deadliest airplanes in the military, the AC-130 gunship, Rodriquez said.
They also attend leadership courses, including one in which airmen choose one person from each group at random to be a leader. Only that person can speak, and the group has to accomplish a complicated and sometimes physically grueling task.
Zach Alber, a 16-year-old from Fort Walton Beach High School, said he learned from that exercise that everyone has an idea of how to accomplish a task, and even if one person thinks his or her idea is the most efficient, they need to listen to whoever is in charge so the entire team can be successful.
�I learned not only how to be a better leader, but how to be a better follower,� he said.
Rodriguez said the program aims to teach the students to be dedicated to serving their community and country in whatever they do.
Some will join the military and some will not, but all will have an unforgettable experience, he said.
The last two years when he loaded the students onto their buses to leave, he asked who was ready for the program to end and get back to their beds and the comforts of home.
No one raised a hand.
�It practically takes a near-death experience to change a person as you get older, but when you�re like 17 and you get to do something like this, that�s a life-changing experience,� Rodriguez said.

Once you've perfected basic techniques like frying an egg and cooking rice, it's time to move on to those things that may have initially scared you off. Every other Monday, chef and stylist Camille Becerra is going beyond the basics to help us tackle even the scariest cooking techniques.
Today: Master puff pastry -- it's easier than you think! Then stash some in the freezer, and effortless, last-minute pastries and tarts will be at your fingertips.
Nothing gives me more gratification than something that grows 5 times its size in the oven -- like puff pastry. This French pastry dough requires a bit of patience, but it is essentially foolproof, and it's a lovely weekend project to take on.
This method uses a block of dough and a block of butter -- along with a series of rolls and folds -- to create layers upon layers of pastry. When baked, the butter melts and creates steam, which is then encased and trapped between layers of dough, causing them to separate into dozens of flaky layers.
The uses for puff pastry are expansive. Start with savory or sweet turnovers, pinwheels, the lid to a pot pie, free-form tarts, and elephant ear cookies. Puff pastry stays well in the freezer, rolled flat and stored in a large Ziploc bag -- so you can make last-minute pastries and effortlessly impress all your guests.
More: Use puff pastry in this honey-sweetened Quince Tarte Tatin.
To start, you want to make your two different packages: the butter and the dough.
For the dough:
1 1/2 cups lukewarm milk 2 tablespoons active dry yeast 2 tablespoons sugar 3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour 3 cups pastry flour2 teaspoons salt
Add the yeast and sugar to the milk and give it a quick stir. Allow 5 minutes for the yeast to bloom.
Mix the flour and salt. On a clean surface, make a well with the flour and pour the milk into the well, gradually incorporating the flour into the milk until they are both well combined. Knead your dough by hand for 15 minutes.
Chill the dough and allow it to rest for an hour. In the meantime, make the butter packet.
For the butter mixture:
2 cups butter, at room temperature 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Cut the butter into 1/2-inch cubes and knead the flour into it. Once everything is well combined, shape it into a 5-inch square -- flour your hands beforehand so that they won't stick to the butter. Chill the square for 30 minutes.
Take your dough and roll it into a 6 x 12-inch rectangle.
Place your butter square over one half of the dough, then dip a pastry brush into water and brush around the edges. Encase the butter in the dough and press edges to seal. You can use parchment here if you like. Chill for 20 minutes.
Using a small dusting of flour, roll out the rectangle to 9 x 20 inches. Using a dry pastry brush, brush off any excess flour -- otherwise it will get trapped and start to brown, eventually discoloring your dough.
Fold your dough into thirds, like you're folding a letter, and repeat: Roll to 9 x 20 inches, brush off excess flour, and fold into thirds. Chill for an hour. You will repeat this whole process (roll, fold, roll, fold, chill) two more times, each time chilling the dough for 1 hour, for a total of six folds.
It is helpful to make indentations with your finger on the dough to keep track of were you are at with your folds. (One indentation for the first fold, two for the second, and so on.)
When you're ready to use your pastry, proof the dough in a warm place for an hour, then bake in a 425° F oven.

Dear Abby: My ex-wife cheated on me five years ago. She ran off with a nonworking criminal type and has been bouncing from place to place with this bozo ever since.
When they and their 3-year-old became homeless two weeks ago, all of a sudden she showed up at my door shoeless and with their son in a diaper. She said her boyfriend was abusive and asked to stay with me until she finds a place. I agreed under the provision that she not see this guy.
I am a hard-working single father of two. I know my heart is two sizes too big for my own good sometimes, and I don't want to be taken advantage of.
I really feel I shouldn't have to help her, and she should rely on her loser boyfriend - who she has started seeing again. I need guidance and your expert advice. Am I an idiot? - Confused
Dear Confused: You're not an idiot; you're a pushover. Your ex has already broken the agreement she made when you let her in. The situation is not going to get better; it will only become more complicated.
Now it's time to direct her to a shelter that can help her get her life back together and give her son a stable home.
Your responsibility for her welfare ended when she left you for another man.
Dear Abby: I just finished reading the letter from "Cafe Crazy" (Jan. 4), about the woman changing the baby on the restaurant's table. You advised she should have taken the baby to the ladies' room to change it on a changing table there, and if there wasn't one, there should be.
I am a stay-at-home father and many times have had to resort to an awkward changing table alternative to accomplish the task as there are very few changing tables in men's rooms.
It has been hard because society still assumes that raising children is a woman's job. Not only should there have been a changing table in the ladies' room, but also one in the men's room.
Abby, please help us proud papas to raise our children with the same facilities allowed the mommas of the world! - Grant in Sunnyvale, Calif.
Dear Grant: I apologize, and I'm glad to have the opportunity to not only help fathers everywhere to raise their children, but also to raise consciousness where it is needed.

Jason Nethercott necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 113 diseños de 26 diseñadores freelance.
Satellite Marketing Systems
After seeing some of the amazing work done on 99 Designs, I am excited to list my project and see what talent, creativity and hard work will do for my design!
Satellite Marketing Systems (SMS), is a new business about to be launched to the owners of hairdressing salons. We build relationships between salons and their customers through providing regular, personalized and relevant messages and promotions via our customer relationship management system.
We also provide the customers of salons with free products and services that are provided by our non-competing, joint venture partners such as jewelers, restaurants, florists, etc.
In a way, SMS, joint venture partners and salons all act like satellites "orbiting" around each individual customer to provide them with multiple "streams" of value.
The primary target for SMS is hairdressing salon owners although in the future this will broaden to include business owners from other industries.
The secondary target will be joint venture partners who will not be hairdressing salons.
The following tag lines should be included with the logo somewhere as they are an essential element of the logo. As there are TWO target audiences, there are TWO tag lines but the only change in the logo should be with the wording!
For the primary target market:
MORE customers, MORE often & spending MORE with your salon!
And for the secondary target market:
Qualified customers, delivered to your business, controlled by YOU!
SMS needs a professional yet friendly identity. I would like to include the key themes or ideas of the "satellite" and the "facilitator" and "partnership" roles that SMS plays.
The main focus of this competition is the logo design but if you could also show it in on business card (rounded edges), and A4 letter design you will definitely get extra points!
Feel free to think outside the square and use designs, patterns, textures, layers, cutouts etc that you think would look great. Obviously, the logo does need to be printed so needs to look good on paper and when printed in black.
As far as colors, I like strong, metallic colors and my favorite is blue, however, I also like green and orange but I'm open to other combinations that you think work well together.
The logo will be used primarily on printed material (marketing collateral), but it would be a bonus if you could also optimize it for use on a Website, blog, social media and e-mail messages etc. I also need the final logo to be supplied in a variety of formats that enable manipulation/re-sizing/re-saving etc of the logo which I'm sure you will all know plenty about!
The successful designer will also be requested to do further creative work as I need brochures to be designed along with other marketing collateral.
Thank you all greatly for your designs and I promise to reply to questions promptly!

Dormant volcanoes amidst country houses and castles
Croscat volcano
Landscape in the volcanic area of La Garrotxa
Croscat Volcano
Castellfollit de la Roca
Ecotourism. ECST (European Charter for Sustainable Tourism) accreditation for certain natural areas.
Between the peaks of the Pyrenees and the magnificent beaches of the Costa Brava there is an enormous area of volcanoes and lava, craters, ash and basalt that form landscapes of infinite beauty. Such is the Volcanic area of Garrotxa, a European Nature Reserve, packed with castles, ancient stone and age-old country houses that invite both rest and adventure.
Little more than 50 kilometres from the city of Girona thirty conical volcanoes rise up, with craters, beech forests over lava rivers and spectacular gorges with basalt walls, the product of prehistoric explosions. Exploring the volcanoes in the la Garrotxa Nature Reserve is like travelling to a world of fire and ash, where amazing mountains and landscapes have been sculpted, with a multitude of towns and villages nestling harmoniously in their rugged environment.
This volcanic region is unique in Europe and was finally formed 11,000 years ago when the last eruption took place. Since that time the volcanoes have remained dormant, although not all are extinguished. All this geological heritage is covered with tracks and trails, viewpoints, castles, monuments and churches, all of surprising beauty.
The contrasting colours are spectacular. Ochre earth, dark ash and petrified lava mix together with intense green forests and meadows in spring and summer. All the while you can hear the sound of water flowing down crystalline springs and streams. A route along the park's trails is highly recommended to all, whether on foot, by bike or on horseback.
A visit to the Croscat volcano is a must. It is the Iberian peninsula's youngest, with an impressive opening that leaves its inner folds and strata open to see. You should also visit the streets of Batet, a small village set between walls of volcanic rock, or discover the spectacular Fajeda d'en Jordà, a huge beech forest set on petrified lava, whose halo of mystery seduces all who enter it. There are many other places to visit in the Garrotxa area, such as the Montsacopa volcano, located right in the middle of the town of Olot topped by the shrine to Sant Francesc, or the picturesque village of Santa Pau, with its maze of medieval streets. Not forgetting, of course, the stark silhouette of the small village of Castellfollit de la Roca built over an immense basalt gorge more than 50 metres high. Lose yourself in its winding streets that open out onto the abyss.
All these sensations are multiplied when seen from the air. The chance to look out over one of Spain's unique protected landscapes from the dizzy heights of a hot air balloon is a real adventure for children and adults alike. Nature and tradition, fiestas and gastronomy, excursions and art. All these are possible in La Garrotxa, an area packed with hidden treasures in the heart of Catalonia.

Sooke and Shawnigan Watersheds Satellite Image
Image taken from the LANDSAT-7 satellite. The image is of the watershed of Sooke Lake Reservoir (center-left) and Shawnigan Lake (center-top) on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. The large body of water on the right side of the image is Findlayson Arm (marine system). Different color bands collected by the satellite are used to discriminate forest and soil types, and water body characteristics. Color composite images are useful for getting acquainted with the area in the image. In these images, vegetation will be green, water will be blue, and urban areas will have mixed colors, usually shades of gray. These types of images are useful for the analysis of lake water parameters, such as turbidity, chlorophyll, suspended sediments, and Secchi depth. Using thermal bands also allows for the measurement of surface temperature. These images are useful for assessing land cover types and area, and how forest clearcuts or agricultural development can impact a watershed. However, these analyses have to be validated by using ground-truth data by collecting water samples and water spectral characteristics at approximately the same time of the image acquisition (satellite overpass).

I'm Tom Vine, I love making and playing games. My experience so far has been limited to Clickteam's products starting with The Games Factory at 8, and now using Multimedia Fusion 2 Developer. Perhaps I've become too comfortable with that! This may or may not change, because I love platformers and 2d pixel art. I'm also quite impatient, and like seeing results quickly.
My dream project would have to be an epic RPG with a story that flows as you play, and is different each time. Because of this, I'm also a big fan of roguelikes, though I've never attempted developing one.

Collaboration and Choice
Through effective use of technology every student can access learning and demonstrate their understanding in any way they choose. Text is no longer king; video, audio, animations, interactive models, diagrams and images all have an equal place in learning and learners select the medium that best help them learn and suits their culture and preferred learning styles. Key to learning, through whatever the medium is collaboration. Through conversations students make sense of what they have read, watched or listened to. Conversations take place with peers; between learners and teachers; and between learners and more knowledgeable others; and they take place in groups. Again technology is the key to enabling those conversations to go wider and deeper by allowing learners to interact with groups anywhere in the world through the use of social networking and other collaboration tools. Learners can find people to engage with who have similar interests or opposing views; with greater expertise or a new interpretation; through different geographical or cultural lenses. It is through these discussions that information is turned into knowledge and that knowledge is assimilated with existing knowledge to result in robust learning that can be applied in future situations.
The diagram above sums this up.

Scott Brown, man of mystery
Scott Brown performed with the band Cheap Trick at a concert in Massachusetts last weekend, strumming his guitar along as they played "Surrender." Two weeks earlier, a shirtless picture of him at a polar bear swim appeared on the cover of New Hampshire's largest newspaper. On Thursday, a conservative blog reported that the former senator will keynote an April GOP fundraiser … in Iowa.
If Brown plans to challenge Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.), something he's flirted with for the better part of a year now, the former Massachusetts senator has chosen a very unusual way to lay the groundwork. But those who know the 54-year-old Republican say it doesn't mean he won't. He's just a one-man band who will do it on his own terms and timetable.
Story Continued Below
Half a dozen people who have spoken with Brown recently about his future say he is genuinely conflicted about whether to run. Several of them said Brown thinks he has until April to make up his mind, or possibly even closer to the June 13 filing deadline. But another person familiar with his thinking cautioned an announcement might come as early as the first week of March.
( Also on POLITICO: Scott Brown on Twitter)
"He's an enigma, this guy," said one person in touch with Brown. "He doesn't feel pressure … Scott's a unique person. That's why he thinks he can wait until April. He's pretty much holding the cards."
Unique, detached, aloof — call it what you like.
"Doing what I said I would do," Brown emailed POLITICO nonchalantly last week, in response to the latest query about what he's up to. "I'm settling in, adjusting, introducing myself and helping … Keep you posted."
( PHOTOS: Scott Brown's career)
National Republicans are salivating over the possibility of a Brown candidacy. His name ID and fundraising prowess would instantly put a safe Democratic seat in play, and tilt a fall election map that already favors the GOP even more in the party's direction. The GOP needs to pick up six seats to win a majority.
The will-he-or-won't-he conjecture has become the biggest parlor game in New Hampshire politics since Brown packed up a U-Haul in December and moved from Wrentham, Mass., to his longtime vacation home in Rye, N.H.
The conflicting clues can be perplexing — and sometimes strange. One day, he changes his Twitter handle to remove the reference to Massachusetts (must be running). Then an email blast to his supporters warns of "5 Signs You'll Get Alzheimer's Disease" (maybe not). One hour, Fox News says Brown is no longer under contract (looks like he's in); later in the day it turns out he's renewed his on-air analyst deal (never mind).
Since the start of the year on Twitter, Brown has posted a picture of himself hanging out at D.C.'s Café Milano, announced he signed up for a charity bike ride this summer in Massachusetts and accidentally tweeted out gibberish during a morning jog. At 11:45 p.m. Friday, he posted that he's heading to Taiwan for a speech.
( PHOTOS: Republican 2016 contenders)
Adding to his seat-of-the-pants operating style is the fact that Brown has no formal advisers. He fields his own press inquiries, sometimes texting directly with reporters and sending late-night missives that have not been spell-checked.
Meanwhile, Brown has made some calls to prominent New Hampshire GOP politicians, but many rings remain unkissed.
"He's just freelancing," said a top Granite State operative. "This is all coming from him … He's acting like a lone ranger."
Allies say Brown's rawness and accessibility speak to his authenticity. A hardscrabble upbringing toughened him up and gave him an independent streak that he has long carried; it's just more pronounced now because he has no handlers.
"He's not a stuffed suit in D.C. who walks around and sounds like a politician," said a Republican strategist who has worked for Brown in the past and remains in touch. "He drinks beers, roots for the Red Sox and drives a real truck."
But Democrats call him an unserious attention seeker and predict he won't actually go through with it.
( Also on POLITICO: Fox News: Brown contract renewed)
"It's beginning to look like Brown is playing a cheap trick on New Hampshire Republicans," said the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee's Matt Canter.
Those who have spoken with Brown say he has entered a new phase of his deliberations — from whether he can win to whether he really wants to run.
In December, he was exploring whether Shaheen could be defeated. He asked the National Republican Senatorial Committee to hold off on running an internal poll until after the holidays, once he had officially relocated from Massachusetts and a conservative super PAC finished running a six-figure TV buy attacking the incumbent over her support for Obamacare.

Inside AAA is a blog series that provides readers the opportunity to get a glimpse of the people who work for you, the AAA member. In this series, staff members provide insight on their job and themselves.
This week, Inside AAA features Amy Goldenberg. She is AAA's Managing Editor, Anthropology News.
What is your favorite on-the-job task?
I think my favorite task is reading proposals for pieces in AN. It's a great way to see what anthropologists are up to. There are a lot of interesting and creative projects out there, and I really enjoy getting at least a glimpse of them.
What is the most rewarding on-the-job moment?
The most rewarding time for me is when our box of fresh ANs arrives from the printer. I like holding the results of our mad dash to meet the monthly press deadline right there in my hands. In graduate school, my friend and I used to joke about the quality of our papers being based on how heavy they were after we printed them out – the heavier, the better. I don't judge publications on weight anymore, but it's still quite satisfying to have the month's work in my hands.
What is the most bizarre object in your office?
If by bizarre, you mean unique, I'll have to go with a drawing my daughter did. It's a picture of a pirate girl with an eye patch in the shape of a heart.
What is your favorite activity outside of work?
Right now I'm trying to learn how to garden. My goal is to not kill so many plants. If it turns out that keeping plants alive is beyond my abilities, I'm going to start collecting garden gnomes.

ALAMEDA, Calif. (AP) — Oakland Raiders rookie quarterback Derek Carr avoided a serious rib injury from a hard hit that knocked him out of an exhibition game against the Detroit Lions.
Coach Dennis Allen said Saturday that X-rays on Carr's ribs were negative and he is feeling much better than he did immediately after the injury.
Carr also suffered a concussion on the hard hit by Larry Webster on Friday night and must pass the league protocols before he is able to return to practice this week.
Carr played well in his second pro game, completing 9 of 16 passes for 109 yards and a touchdown, leading three scoring drives and committing no turnovers. He even got one series with the first-team offense.
"I did see a lot of improvement," Allen said. "I saw some improvement in his accuracy, I saw some improvement in his reads, I saw some improvement on his touch passes.
I think that's a positive sign. There's still obviously a lot of room for improvement and room for growth, but I did see him take a step forward from his first preseason game."
Despite the strong performance, Carr is not expected to get more time with the starters in the dress rehearsal game at Green Bay on Friday.
Matt Schaub, who had an up-and-down performance in the 27-26 win over Detroit, will get the bulk of that time as Oakland tries to get him ready for the season opener against the New York Jets on Sept. 7.
"Our game plan, probably, going in is to get some significant work for the 1s, because when you get into that fourth preseason game, they're probably not going to get as much work," Allen said. "I think we'll see a lot of Matt Schaub in this game."
Schaub threw a deflected interception to stop a promising first drive and then kept the ball only three plays before punting the next two times Oakland had the ball.
Schaub recovered to lead a TD drive with help from three Detroit penalties before leaving the game.
In seven drives this preseason, Schaub has led the Raiders to one score and has not completed a single pass more than 10 yards downfield.
On other injury news, safety Tyvon Branch has an ankle injury that is not serious, but might force him to miss a day or two of practice.
Backup safety Usama Young is expected to be activated off the physically unable to perform list this week after injuring his quadriceps in a conditioning drill before the start of training camp.
Second-year cornerback DJ Hayden is still not ready to return to practice from a stress fracture in his right foot. Hayden injured the foot in May and had surgery in late June.
Allen also said the team will likely sign a tight end this week after Nick Kasa tore the ACL in his left knee during a joint practice with the Dallas Cowboys last week. David Ausberry is also out with an injured left knee.

The Cirque du Soleil show Ka has reopened on the Las Vegas Strip 17 days after an acrobat fell to her death in its closing scene.
The Tuesday evening show was marked by a memorial announcement and standing ovations in memory of 31-year-old Sarah Guillot-Guyard.
The Las Vegas Review-Journal said the audience was on its feet at the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino before the start of the show dedicated "to the loving memory of an exceptional artist."
"Her passion will guide us in a common dream, the pursuit of a better world," an announcer told the crowd.
Producers suspended the production after Guillot-Guyard died on June 30 in a 90-foot fall during the show's climactic battle scene.
Guillot-Guyard had been with the original cast of Ka since 2006. The aerial performer was a French citizen and mother of two who lived in Las Vegas and also ran a training program for kids called Cirquefit.
She was the first Cirque du Soleil performer to die in an onstage accident in the company's 29-year history.
Cirque has cut the climactic scene that resulted in the death and replaced it with a "dressing-ritual" scene that it says maintains the story line of the production and its 90-minute length.
"It was already an existing act that had been used previously when there was technical difficulty," Cirque du Soleil spokeswoman Renee-Claude Menard told the Review-Journal.
Ka is expected to return to its regular schedule of two shows a night by July 23.
Coroner's officials said Guillot-Guyard's death by blunt force trauma was an accident. She was still in her harness when she fell. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration has launched an investigation that could take six months.
Horrified audience members who witnessed the fall initially thought it was part of the show and only realized something had gone wrong when they heard cries of performers.

Periodontal Disease: Bone Replacement Graft
Teeth are held in place by surrounding gums, bone, and other tissues. But periodontal disease can cause the bone to break down. Certain techniques called regenerative procedures can be used to stimulate growth of new bone. This growth increases the height of the bone around the tooth, giving the tooth more support. Getting back even half the lost bone height extends the life of the tooth. One type of regenerative procedure is called a bone replacement graft.
How a Bone Replacement Graft Works
A graft helps your body replace lost bone. The graft consists of your own bone, synthetic material, or bone from a tissue bank. A gel containing growth factors may also be used to stimulate tissues to grow. This is how a graft is done:
Placing the graft. First, a gum flap is created. Growth factors may then be applied to the root. Graft material is packed into the area where bone was lost. This material provides a platform for new bone to grow.
Closing up. The gum is closed and sewn together. The growth factors stimulate tissue to grow.
After the area heals. Stitches dissolve or are removed. Though the gum has healed, it takes a year or more for new bone growth to fill the space.

Varsity Vocals and Total Vocal are thrilled to announce the track list for the Best Of College A Cappella 2010!
Our heartfelt thanks to everyone who submitted their tracks. We know how much of each of you goes into producing these albums, and we really enjoyed listening to each and every track we received.
Hundreds upon hundreds of tracks were submitted, but we are only able to squeeze on 20 tracks. With so many groups pushing the envelope (in everything from vocalists and arrangement, to recording and production quality, to song selection and genre), selecting our lineup this year was incredibly difficult.
We want to thank you for your interest in our annual compilation, and we encourage you to participate in years to come.
Congratulations to the 20 groups who were selected! We are quite excited about this album and are working quickly to produce it. We will be in touch soon with further instructions. For now, enjoy, and congratulations! This is going to be one amazing CD.

When asked whether a gayPosted by markweee on 01/14/2011
When asked whether a gay comedy scene exists, Rubin explains, "There is a gay comedy community, if for no other reason than there are suddenly a lot of gay comics. I think we're like gremlins, you throw water on us and we multiply." I bet this community has some great "Men are like this, other men are like this" knee-slappers.

A man accused of murdering two young Melbourne sisters on Easter Sunday has appeared in court.
Charles Amon Mihayo, 35, has been charged with two counts of murder after Savannah, four, and Indianna, three, were found dead at a Watsonia home on Sunday afternoon.
Mihayo, of Watsonia, briefly appeared in the Melbourne Magistrates Court on Tuesday morning.
He was remanded in custody for a committal mention in August.
Mihayo is known to the girls, police said on Sunday.
Photographs of the smiling sisters, captured in matching outfits and holding hands, were released by the family on Sunday.
Family members say they are devastated by their loss and say the girls will be missed forever.
"We are utterly devastated at the loss of Savannah and Indianna," they said in a statement released by police.
"The girls will be forever missed, loved and never forgotten."
Floral tributes and messages of sympathy were left outside the Watsonia home on Monday.
Police have not revealed how the children died.

Game One
LONG BEACH, Calif. – With a scoring frenzy in the top of the seventh, UC Santa Barbara (10-4) completed the 6-4, comeback victory over Nevada (10-6) to open the Louisville Slugger Invitational.
The Gauchos had their work cut out for them in the top of the seventh in being down two runs, and got their offense rolling early with four consecutive single. The third of those base knocks was from Arianna Palomares who delivered her hit through the right side to send Stacy Cavazos home to put her team within one.
A Nevada pitching change didn't detour UCSB's batters, as MeShalon Moore roped yet another single to center field for the game-tying RBI.
The senior took a while to find her rhythm as she allowed a walk with her first at bat and allowed that runner to advance to third after a pair of wild pitches. However, Collins made sure that runner would be left stranded as she delivered the final out of the inning by catching Caylin Campbell looking at called strike three.
Collins went on to secure the win for the Gauchos by forcing the Wolf Pack into a 1-2-3 inning in the bottom of the seventh.
A Wolf Pack error gave UCSB its first lead at the top of the sixth, as Pilpil scored thanks to an error from the third baseman.
The Gauchos' first run came at the top of the third inning when the team was behind 1-0. Kristen Clark moved UCSB into scoring position with a single to left field, which gave Cavazos the chance to head to second. Hitting exclusively singles, Clark finished the game with a perfect 4-of-4 performance at the plate.
Palomares completed the job with a sacrifice fly hit to deep right field and tied the game at 1-1.
Game Two
UC Santa Barbara improved to 11-4 on the year with a balanced offensive attack and solid pitching in a 7-0 shutout against a winless Utah Valley (0-11) team.
A combined pitching effort by Andriana Collins, Shelby Wisdom and Ashlee Ludlow held the Wolverines to just two hits in the game while totaling eight strikeouts. Collins (4-1) picked up the win in her fourth start of the season and gave three solid innings of work. Wisdom came in with three more shutout innings notching four strikeouts and allowing just one hit. Ludlow closed the door in the seventh striking out the final two batters of the game.
Offensively, the Gauchos scored in the first four innings to get out to an early lead and they never looked back. Leadoff hitter Kristen Clark led the way at the plate going 3-for-4 with an RBI and two runs scored.
In the top of the first inning, Clark managed a leadoff walk and promptly stole second base for her team-leading 10th on the year. A walk to Arianna Palomares and Wisdom hit-by-pitch loaded up the bases for Kathryn Pilpil. With one out, Pilpil hit a fly ball to left to bring home Clark for a 1-0 lead.
In the second inning, Lauren Boser reached by getting hit by a pitch and later came around to score on a throwing error by the pitcher. A single by Jessica Reichner brought Clark up to the plate who hit an infield single scoring Emily Brucelas, who reached on the throwing error, making it 3-0.
The second error of the game for the Wolverines cost them another run in the third inning, when Pilpil, who walked and stole second base, advanced to third on an error by the shortstop. Boser would hit a grounder to first base to score Pilpil.
UCSB tagged on three more runs total in the fourth and sixth innings to go up 7-0. Samantha Stark had a big day at the plate going 2-for-3 with an RBI and a double and Brucelas had two hits on the day as well.
The Gauchos are back in action tomorrow when they take on Oregon State to continue play in the Louisville Slugger Invitational.

Kids Everywhere Demand Newt Gingrich's Magical Elephant Monster Book
Finally, the definitive image of the Newt Gingrich 2012 presidential run has emerged: Callista Gingrich, sitting opposite an elephant furry, selling propaganda to children.
Indeed, Gingrich Productions has come through with the dream gift for every Real American child this merry Halloween season. Sweet Land of Liberty sees official Newt Gingrich mascot Ellis the Elephant "[travelling] through time to discover what makes America special," according to Cally. "I encourage you to read this book with your children, so they too can understand that America is truly an exceptional nation." Watch, as Ellis appears at the First Thanksgiving and somehow isn't killed by pilgrims and Indians alike for being a devil-beast. Swoon, as he travels to the moon as a stowaway. Turn away, as he gives Newt Gingrich a hummer. This truly is an elephant for the ages.

• Order your Hut Stamp from the AAC Office (303) 384-0110 or by emailing the AAC
• Stamp price varies by year due to exchange rates but is typically ~$75 USD
• Joint members WILL need two individual hut stamps
• Hut stamps are good through the calendar year
Alpine clubs in many countries throughout the world have erected huts to provide climbers with convenient, safe and economical staging points for climbs in major mountain ranges. The Union Internationale d'Associations d'Alpinisme (UIAA), makes hut stamps available to AAC members providing reciprocal membership privileges at mountain huts operated by alpine clubs throughout the world. The stamps provide discounts in Austria, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Liechtenstein, Spain, and Switzerland. With a stamp, an AAC member will pay the same rate as members of the club with which the particular hut is associated.
AAC members can order a UIAA hut stamp directly through the AAC office in Golden, CO (303-384-0110). The price of the stamp varies each year based on international exchange rates, but is typically around $75. Members staying more than four or five nights at a participating hut should recoup the cost of the stamp through the reciprocal membership rate. Joint members WILL need two individual hut stamps.
The following pages contain information about climbing huts that honor the UIAA hut stamps. Some clubs include very specific information about individual huts, including photos.

Film Independent's Project Involve/
We've had a fair amount of discussion about the need for producer training programs here. The need for training programs in other film-related disciplines is equally pressing. The need for training programs that focus on diversity and champion under-represented groups is particularly of need. Let's face it, the film industry remains a bastion of privilege, and unless serious efforts are made, everyone just keeps helping out people that are like themselves.
Project:Involve is Film Independent's signature diversity program, dedicated to increasing cultural diversity in the film industry by cultivating the careers of under-represented filmmakers. The program, which runs from October through June, selects filmmakers from culturally diverse backgrounds and filmmaking tracks. The Fellows are paired one-on-one with a mentor from the film industry. In addition to the mentorship, the Fellows also attend filmmaking workshops, community screenings, and receive career development assistance.
During the nine-month program, the Fellows are assigned a 2-minute short film project. They work in pairs to develop and shoot a short film that incorporates the concept of diversity in our every day life.
40 Fellows are selected for the program each year.
Project:Involve Fellows receive:
A one-year membership with Film Independent
A pass to the Los Angeles Film Festival (Westwood Pass)
Alumni support
Applications are accepted in the following categories:
Acquisitions, Acting, Agent/Manager, Cinematography, Composing, Costume Design, Development Exec, Directing, Documentary, Editing, Entertainment Law, Film Programming, Marketing/Distribution, Music, Producing, Production Design, Screenwriting, Sound, and Writer/Director.

Links to Soothe a Weary Soul
- Laird Hunt has a blog. And it gets its name from a line in a Paul Celan poem, a sign of great taste and intelligence.
- If you've ever worked at a bookstore, you might have experienced the sometimes painful, sometimes delightful practice of stripping mass market paperbacks of their covers and just sending the cover back to the distributor. And you might have also experienced the returning of trade paperbacks and hardcovers to the distributor whole. And you might have wondered about these things. Now we all need wonder no more, because the Honorable Dr. Justine Larbalestier was willing to ask why? about those publishing practices (and some others), and the Esteemed and Knowledgeable Patrick Nielsen Hayden provided some answers.
- Also thanks to Dr. L: "How to Fail in Literature" circa 1890.
- Fred Ramey of Unbridled Books asks: "Why does it seem that the publishing industry can gainfully expect fiction readers to muscle their way through a slough of artlessness to get to the heart of a story but rarely believes that readers will be willing to slip into the currents of an artful telling to get there?"
- MySpace vs. Friendster, and other cultures and subcultures in social life: "Often, people don't need simplicity -- they want to feel proud of themselves for figuring something out; they want to feel the joy of exploration. This is the difference between tasks that people are required to do and social life. Social life isn't about the easy way to do something -- it's about making meaning out of practice, about finding your own way." (via Alan DeNiro)

We at the Packer Ranter are always looking for new ways to honor our beloved former special teams superhero. After his (unfortunately/ridiculously stupid) release, Franklin and I brainstormed several options and chose two rather large endeavors that while immensely challenging, would potentially appease Tracy and all his gloriousness.
My biopic Tracy White screenplay is currently under review at several major studios and despite the board of directors best attempts to avoid him, Franklin has been passionately lobbying for a Tracy White statue outside the Atrium by Lombardi. In the meantime, we've created the Tracy White Certificate of Excellence via a noble suggestion on the Twitters (thanks Midwestfan).
These will be given out to those rare Packer fans who possess extraordinary qualities that we believe would make Tracy proud – caption contest winners and other great feats to be determined by the Packer Ranter Tracy White Subcommittee.
Good luck to all throughout the season. May the eye of the Tracy be with you.

Snubbed no more.
The NBA announced Wednesday that Nets center Brook Lopez will replace Celtics guard Rajon Rondo on the Eastern Conference All-Star team, marking his first career selection. The Celtics announced Sunday that Rondo will undergo season-ending surgery on his right knee. Commissioner David Stern selects all injury replacements for the All-Star Game.
Lopez, identified by The Point Forward's Rob Mahoney as the biggest All-Star snub this year, is averaging 18.6 points, 7.3 rebounds and 2.2 blocks per game. He ranks fourth in the NBA with a 25.23 Player Efficiency Rating, trailing only LeBron James, Kevin Durant and Chris Paul. The Nets, who entered Wednesday's game against Miami with a 27-18 record, did not have an All-Star until Lopez's addition. Earlier this month, Lopez was included on The Point Forward's list of most deserving first-time All-Star candidates. Lopez, 24, signed a four-year contract with the Nets worth a reported $60.8 million last summer.
The New York Post reported over the weekend that Lopez was surprised that no Nets were included on the original Eastern Conference roster.
"I was a little disappointed that there was no one from our team at all," Lopez said, who scored 18 points and had three blocks. "It's tough for me to envision a team with the best players in the Eastern Conference not include Deron [Williams] or Joe [Johnson]."
Rondo, 26. was picked as a starting backcourt player for the East during a fan vote -- a fairly worthy choice. Rondo's replacement in the starting lineup has not been announced, but it is generally expected to be Cavaliers point guard Kyrie Irving. 2013 marked Rondo's fourth career All-Star selection.
[A look at the 2013 All-Star jerseys | Stars plan to wear special All-Star sneakers]
Here are the updated rosters for the All-Star Game, set for Sunday, Feb. 17, at the Toyota Center in Houston.
Eastern Conference: Carmelo Anthony (Knicks), Chris Bosh (Heat), Tyson Chandler (Knicks), Luol Deng (Bulls), Kevin Garnett (Celtics), Paul George (Pacers), Jrue Holiday (Sixers), Kyrie Irving (Cavaliers), LeBron James (Heat), Brook Lopez (Nets), Joakim Noah (Bulls) and Dwyane Wade (Heat).Western Conference: LaMarcus Aldridge Kobe Bryant Lakers Tim Duncan Spurs Thunder Blake Griffin Clippers James Harden Rockets Dwight Howard David Lee Warriors Tony Parker Zach Randolph Grizzlies Russell Westbrook

As precisely as in the subject. LS is passing the format on sfz, and many a few banks collected the giga. It is simply a waste of time of money for paid converter for a few giga. All the more so because LS will do it in an optimal way for it engine. While sfz. I like this format. I wrote yesterday, that I had a problem in sorting samples. I set to work and I connected a few sfz text files into the one-off. And played!!!!!!
I am sitting on linux (ubuntu natty) and sfz are acting under LS only with banks ogg (without wav). I suppose it is under construction and therefore, but I am proposing the problem, because perhaps about it not yet it is known. Wav are acting for me from gig even 24-bit.

Ga. – SeniorDani
Gallucci (Orlando, Fla.) was awarded the Bobcat
Athlete of the Week after her pitching performances for Georgia
College softball (14-10, 2-2 PBC) helped secure 1-0 victories over
both Fort Valley State University and Francis Marion
Gallucci tossed 15 shutout innings between her two starts in the pitcher circle this past week, allowing a mere seven hits while walking none and striking out 16.
The senior's highlight of the week came from the Francis Marion game in which she threw an extra inning shutout. Gallucci struck out seven batters while holding the Patriots to just four hits in her eight innings as pitcher.
Gallucci's impressive performance in her two games improved her record to 4-3 and helped lower her ERA to 1.03 on the season.
She has not allowed a run in her last 16 innings and has an active 18-inning streak of no earned runs.
Georgia College softball will compete next against Georgia Southwestern University Wednesday, March 6 at 4 p.m.
