What's the strategy?
2035 Continuum (PSG) is a target date fund of funds, holding underlying funds that invest in asset classes including Canadian and foreign fixed income, Canadian mortgages, Canadian real estate, and Canadian and foreign equity.
It is constructed to provide significant growth potential with a strong income counterbalance. The strategy has a diversified allocation to equity. It is relatively style neutral and has a preference for large cap stocks, although allocations also include some exposure to smaller cap stocks and income-oriented mandates.
The strategy uses a "to retirement" glide path. Each quarter until the retirement date, the fixed income allocation is increased and the equity allocation is decreased as the portfolio shifts along the glide path.
Why invest in this portfolio strategy?
Ideal for investors seeking a diversified portfolio with a targeted retirement date of 2035.
The strategy provides diversification through exposure to multiple asset classes in domestic and foreign markets and multiple active managers.
Investors benefit from active management by the portfolio manager, including changes to underlying fund weights, the removal of an existing underlying fund, or addition of a new underlying fund. The portfolio manager may make changes to the underlying fund mix in line with current forward looking views on a quarterly basis. In addition, investors benefit from the active management of the underlying fund managers. Investors further benefit from automatic rebalancing, ensuring the asset mix stays close to the mandated asset mix.

Tool 1: The Link Generator.
When you want to distribute articles to students or colleagues, it works so much better to send or post links, as opposed to a copy of the article itself. Sometimes, though, it's difficult to find a link to a given article that will consistently work, both on-campus and off-campus. That's why the Health Science Center Libraries created the Link Generator — it's a way to take one of several simple identifiers that most scholarly articles possess — either a PubMed ID (PMID), a Digital Object Identifier (DOI), or another ID — and quickly turn it into a short, simple, persistent link that works for Health Science Center faculty, staff, or students, on-campus or off-campus.
To begin, just go to http://link.uthscsa.edu/ and drop a PMID, DOI, CINAHL Accession Number, or PubMedCentral ID (PMCID) in the box. Or if you prefer, you can just attach the identifier to the end of that same URL: for example, the link for an article with PMID 19197747 will be http://link.uthscsa.edu/19197747.
Tool 2: Citation Help Resources.
There are lots of formats and models to help you create citations to works you wish to acknowledge. The two most important things to remember when creating citations are:
- Your citation should prominently identify the creators of the work you are citing, whether they are individuals or entities, to ensure they get due credit for their creation.
- Your citation should include information that will help your readers locate copies of the work you are citing, so they can study it for themselves.
- The National Library of Medicine's style guide, Citing Medicine by Karen Patrias, is available in its entirety online for free on the NCBI Bookshelf. This guide details the reference format (sometimes called the "Vancouver" format) recommended by the Uniform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals (URM), as agreed upon by the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE).
- Reference managers like RefWorks and EndNote allow you to collect information about the material you're researching, and then automatically compile that information into bibliographic citations in the format of your choice. EndNote is available at a discount through the Health Science Center bookstore, while RefWorks is free online to Health Science Center students, faculty, and staff. Learn more about using the Health Science Center's subscription to RefWorks.
- New web-based tools like Mendeley and Zotero offer reference management functionality like the tools mentioned above, but also offer the ability to share citation information with colleagues online. Both Mendeley and Zotero are free.
- For a simpler solution, BibMe is an easy web-based tool that allows you to enter necessary citation information in a web-based form, from which BibMe will create citations for you in APA, MLA, Chicago or Turabian formats (Vancouver format is not an option with BibMe).
Tool 3: Copyright Clearance Center (CCC) Academic License.
The Copyright Clearance Center is a nonprofit "rights broker" that attempts to simpify the process of requesting and granting permission to use copyrighted works, by offering a single clearinghouse for requests and royalty payments that works with all rights owners and users. CCC has also negotiated a blanket "Academic License" with major scholarly publishers, and the University of Texas System institutions have purchased this license to cover copying and distribution of materials within all 15 UT component institutions.
Individuals affiliated with any UT System institution can learn more about this license and how to use it by visiting the UT System Office of General Counsel's CCC Academic License website (note: to access this restricted website, you will need to first select your institution, and then log in as instructed). If you have questions about the Academic License and how it applies to your class or project, we can help.
Tool 4: Creative Commons & Other Reuse-Safe Searches.
We've described how the Creative Commons license is a handy way for creators to expressly make their work available for others to use, but how can you find materials that are available for use under Creative Commons (or other reuse-friendly) licenses? A number of major web search tools now offer "advanced search" options that allow you to limit your results to just works that can be reused. For example, if you use Google Advanced Image Search, look for the selector labeled "Usage Rights" and set it to "Only images labeled for reuse" before you run your search. Other important media sources that offer advanced search options for Creative Commons content include the image-sharing network Flickr and the video-sharing service YouTube. You may also find this Creative Commons Search page handy for searching several such services.
In addition, there are a number of media repositories specifically oriented toward the health sciences that make content available under Creative Commons or other open licenses. Examples include:
- Health Education Assets Library (HEAL)
- Images from the History of Medicine (National Library of Medicine)
- NIH Image Bank
- MedEdPORTAL from AAMC
- Public Health Image Library (PHIL)
- University of Michigan Health System Image Bank
- University of Minnesota Image Bank
- Wellcome Images
Tool 5: Copyright Management Resources.
You put a lot of time and effort into your scholarship, so you want it to have the widest distribution and application possible. You may want to distribute your work to more places than just the pages of one publication. The publication agreements you enter into with publishers will determine which rights you provide to them, and which you maintain for yourself. It's very important that you read publication agreements carefully before signing, and ensure that they are written in a way that allows you to retain the rights you need for the future. If you have concerns, remember that publication agreements are negotiable, and you can attach an author addendum to the agreement that modifies the terms of the agreement according to your needs.
Here are some tools that can help you craft an author addendum to meet your needs:
- NIH-funded authors need to retain at least certain basic rights in order to comply with the NIH Public Access Policy. The NIH provides specific language that can be added by authors to publication agreements, and Washington University St Louis created a simple addendum template with that language.
- The SPARC Author's Rights Initiative provides a more complete addendum template that helps authors retain additional rights.
- Finally, Science Commons offers the Scholar's Copyright Addendum Engine, which allows you to choose from a series of options to create a more customized addendum.

Applied Statistics for the Social and Health Sciences provides graduate students in the social and health sciences with the basic skills that they need to estimate, interpret, present, and publish statistical models using contemporary standards. The book targets the social and health science branches such as human development, public health, sociology, psychology, education, and social work in which students bring a wide range of mathematical skills and have a wide range of methodological affinities. For these students, a successful course in statistics will not only offer statistical content but will also help them develop an appreciation for how statistical techniques might answer some of the research questions of interest to them.
This book is for use in a two-semester graduate course sequence covering basic univariate and bivariate statistics and regression models for nominal and ordinal outcomes, in addition to covering ordinary least squares regression.
Key features of the book include:
This book is for a two-semester course. For a one-semester course, see http://www.routledge.com/9780415991544/
Part 1: Getting Started 1. Examples of Social Science Research Using Regression Analyses 2. Planning a Quantitative Research Project with Existing Data 3. Basic Features of Statistical Packages and Data Documentation 4. Basics of Writing Batch Programs with Statistical Packages Part 2: Basic Descriptive and Inferential Statistics 5. Basic Descriptive Statistics 6. Sample, Population and Sampling Distributions 7. Basic Inferential Statistics Part 3: Ordinary Least Squares Regression 8. Basic Concepts of Bivariate Regression 9. Basic Concepts of Multiple Regression 10. Dummy Variables 11. Interactions 12. Nonlinear Relationships 13. Indirect Effects and Omitted Variable Bias 14. Outliers, Heteroskedasticity, and Multicollinearity Part 4: The Generalized Linear Model 15. Introduction to the Generalized Linear Model with a Continuous Outcome 16. Dichotomous outcomes 17. Multi-Category Outcomes Part 5: Wrapping Up 18. Roadmap to Advanced Topics
"True to its title, it is ideal for a wide range of social and health sciences. The examples are practical applications where students will be interested in the results. Including both SAS and Stata code and exceptionally clear help interpreting the results sets this book apart from the rest."
—Alan C. Acock, Human Development and Family Sciences, Oregon State University
"I have been teaching a year-long graduate level statistics course to first year sociology, education, policy analysis and demography Ph.D. students for the past 39 years. I have always pieced together material from several different textbooks, software manuals, and published articles, since no one volume met the need to provide entering graduate students with appropriate content coverage at the right difficulty level. Rachel Gordon's new book meets these needs better than any other volume I have seen."
—George Farkas, Education, University of California, Irvine
"This book is a teacher's dream, perfect for an applied regression course in the health sciences. After covering introductory statistics and classical regression, it offers a sophisticated yet accessible approach to the generalized linear model, particularly with regard to logistic regression. Numerous excerpts from recent research papers complement the text nicely. I know of no book like it."
—Richard T. Campbell, Biostatistics and Sociology, University of Illinois at Chicago
We provide complimentary e-inspection copies of primary textbooks to instructors considering our books for course adoption.

9 pm. Ok. we are watching the NBC feed.
Things to look forward to tonight:
1. The media narrative. Look for lots of talk about Obama needing to "right the ship", reassert control of the agenda, turn things around, reconnect with the people, etc.
2. Tone – look for Obama to come out with his new populist stance. I've put the over/under for mentions of "fight" or "fighting" or versions thereof at 9.
3. Republican reaction – they want to signal their willingness to work with Obama, so can't come across as too stridently opposed. Look for them to applaud on jobs related tax cuts or education.
4. Audience reaction. Historically, presidents rarely get a popular boost from the state of the union, in large part because the audience is predominantly supporters.
5. Obama needs to simplify his message. He has a tendency to work too many themes into his national addresses. He needs to focus on one thing tonight: jobs, jobs, jobs.
6. Other than a brief mention of health care – I don't think he'll focus too much on it. Of course, he'll stress the need to pass comprehensive health care, and it will get big applause from Democrats, but I think that train may have left the station.
(Jack's taking the over on the fighting references. Anyone else?)
He's on – look for about an hour speech with applause.
Boy he sounds alot like Fred Armisen!
Worst of storm has passed….perhaps.
Chris – good catch. Jefferson presented it in writing to Congress and that set a precedent until Wilson.
As usual, Nancy is chewing something – incredibly distracting. Is it a throat lozenge?
He's clearly taking the middle-class, man of the people populist tack.
First applause line: hopefulness hits home!
We do not give up, we don't quit (Churchill – we will never surrender)….applause again for the Amurican people…
And who are the evil people! the banks! We all hate the banks! (How's Tim Geithner feeling right now?)
Oh, he supported the "last administration's bank bailout program" – how long can he play that card?
I forget – did he cut taxes?
Real interesting play here – do you notice how playful he is? A real effort here to break through the "cerebral aloof" Obama and try to connect with the middle class. It's all part of the package – jobs, taxes, man of the people and more jobs for real people. Smart, smart, smart!
And no mention of health care!
Jobs, jobs, jobs. He gets it. The question is: how do you pay for a jobs bill.
Republicans like America's business!
A critic might suggest that in order to grow businesses, you need banks to loan money… and he jumps on it. Fitting with the populist theme, we are helping "small business" – never the big businesses.
Tax credits – this is a line out of the Republican playbook – ended capital gains.
The Left has to be incensed here – this is really a pretty centrist agenda: tax cuts, tax breaks, tax incentives – Obama has seen the light, and it ain't the moving Left. Say goodbye Daily Kos, Andy Sullivan, etc.
Is that the first mention of health care? Chris says yes…
"I'm not going to sit here and listen to you badmouth the United States of America!" Let's go Otter!
Where is this segment going besides drawing applause? is he leading up to health care?
Financial regulation – a veto threat! He's trying to show some spine. I'm sure people are wishing he said the same thing for health care – where is health care?
How the times have changed – bipartisan support for nuclear power! Offshore oil drilling! Nancy just swallowed her tongue! What party is he representing? This is amazing!!
This is a rather lukewarm endorsement of the climate bill!
Jaime has a link to what commentators are saying (see her comment for the link)
We are all for exports, but how do you increase them when companies are laying off workers and banks aren't loaning? This is meaningless boilerplate – enforcing trade agreements, strengthen trade relations, blah blah blah. Meaningless…
Education is a potentially bipartisan issue – Bush capitalized on this. I think he can get Republicans on this….a mixture of spending and stricter accountability. Win-Win…
Community colleges – another shoutout to working families, and a shot at banks profiting on students loans for good measure. Again, a nice touch…
Here that Midd students? You shouldn't go broke listening to me lecture!
Finally – health care. No laughing matter….
This ought to be interesting – does he double down, or pay lip service to reform? (A shoutout to Michelle – she doesn't look real enthused!)
The CBO estimate just isn't going to cut it. If he's serious about reform he'd drop that. This is lip service unless he comes out specifically for what's in one of the two current bills. Let's see if he's serious…
Take another look? He just kicked it under the bus…
Health care just died. He threw in the towel….A year of effort and it's done.
Let's move on … and he is on to the deficit….and blaming the previous guys…
(Chris A. – are you arguing that he's serious about pushing for health care?)
Nancy does not like a spending freeze…
A second veto threat – but this is largely meaningless because he just exempted roughly 3/5 of spending in the form of Medicare and Social Security and the Defense Department. Totally meaningless…
Still another bipartisan commission to study Medicare — politically safe and a clear sign that he's passing it on to another generation of Americans.
A freeze that takes place next year? That's how budgeting works? There's the lead Youtube video….sigh…
Who took the "under" on fighting – I haven't heard the word yet?
(Jack – that's the second veto threat by my count).
Lobbying disclosure, yawn…. .
See Bert Johnson for an opposing perspective on the impact of the Court decision – he suggests it will have no impact at all, or very little…
Earmark reform. I hear he also wants to outlaw rain falling on weekends….
Transparency? After how the health care negotiations took place?
A subtle jab at filibusters and holds…. .
He is still digging the bipartisan hole – it plays well, but it simply is unrealistic without action
(Chris – I think your take on health care is right..)
Amy – yes, it was!
Boy, he's really playing the "friendly" card…
You watch, he's still going to have to play tough on security… and there it is. More Al Quaeda captured or killed than the previous guy did!
"Combat" troops out means roughly 30,000 Americans will still be there by most estimates – all the troops will not be coming home.
(Chris – don't pick on Max. I'm surprised he's up!)
Instead of going to funerals, Joe Biden does commissions….
Jack – No, he doesn't really believe we are leaving Iraq, but he gets around it with the use of "combat troops"…..
what consequences, in particular? My mother used to threaten me with that …. "you just try me!"
jaime – you are absolutely right – really treading a careful line there to sound tough but not alienate the base.
He's finishing with reference to American values, and relatively bipartisan issues.
Again, how exactly does he work with Congress to repeal don't ask, don't tell? He could end it now, with a stroke of the pen! This is mostly rhetorical fluff here – no real hard choices, no details, instead an appeal to abstract principles and promises to do "the right thing" with little recognition that if it was so easy to do that, it would have taken place already.
And here's the reference back to his no Republican or Democratic values – only American values.
Anyone watching focus groups here? How's this change mantra playing? Are people listening?
Too much pointing fingers – this from the guy who spent much of this speech pointing the finger at Bush!
He just threw health care under the bus – and he's criticizing others for failing to do what's hard? Is this playing?
Marty – my read at the outset is that the Republicans were going to play this really safe – they have the political winds at their back and don't want to provide any pretext for voters to turn against them…
Ok – talking heads time – what are you hearing? What's the first take?
My initial thoughts:
1. The obvious omission here was health care – he essentially signaled that he won't push for the current bill. It's back to the drawing board.
2. Second, the Republicans were on their best behavior. The political winds are at their back and they really didn't do much catcalling although there were a couple of moments of snickering.
3. Obama was clearly trying to come across as more personal, more human, more emotional. He understands that people are angry – he's angry too.
4. He clearly caught the message from Massachusetts – from here on it's all about jobs, jobs, jobs…much of the substantive focus was on taxes – cuts, exemptions, credits, etc. – very Republicanesque. Nuclear power, offshore drilling – he has clearly signaled, in light of Massachusetts, that's he moving to the Center and daring the Republicans not to work with him. I think it is a very good strategy, but it will have the netroots in open revolt tomorrow…. .
This is a man who is politically chastened, who sees support among the middle eroding and who is facing a potential loss of the Democrat's working majority in a matter of months unless the economy begins turning around.
The biggest problem: can he get a bitterly divided Congress to take up his proposals?
jack agrees, a move to the middle. Others? do you agree he threw health care under the bus, and has adopted Clinton's triangulation strategy, only this time doing it before losing the Congress, whereas Clinton did it after losing the Congress?
let's watch the Republican response. Clearly they've learned from the Jindal fiasco, when he gave the speech from a hallway in his house! This setting is much more fitting…
(Jack – no t-shirt. I didn't hear fight once. I heard alot about Amuricans….)
The Republican reaction is on: it's jobs, jobs, jobs – and you won't get it through more government! It's an easy pitch, but will it work without being matched with reform? The private sector got us into this mess … Republicans have to have a program….I guess the program is Facebook and Twitter – he's going for the 18-29 year old vote.
Drill, baby, drill!
(Jack – you are welcome – great participation tonight. Even Max!)
Jaime – agreed. the techo-references just don't fly.
Wow – Scott Brown is now the face of the Republican party! And a shot at Obama and Dem's for coddling the Christmas bomber. That's a winner….
And the common Republican themes – federalism, individual choice, deregulation….the Reagan mantra.
(Is that young lady crying? Or is she on painkillers?)
OK, that's it… I'll be on a bit more taking final thoughts while I unwind with a scotch and, of course, tomorrow I'll try to give an update on the post-speech reactions. My sense is that the netroots are going to be completely up in arms here.
Chris – do you mean the "rainbow" coalition seating behind McDonnell? I thought they were typical republicans!
I have an early departmental meeting tomorrow, so I'm going to call it a night. Great participation from everyone – you outdid five thirty eight tonight in terms of comments. And, of course, you were alot smarter… .
More tomorrow…

The SeaWiFS instrument was launched by Orbital Sciences Corporation on the OrbView-2 (a.k.a. SeaStar) satellite in August 1997, and collected data from September 1997 until the end of mission in December 2010. SeaWiFS had 8 spectral bands from 412 to 865 nm. It collected global data at 4 km resolution, and local data (limited onboard storage and direct broadcast) at 1 km. The mission and sensor were optimized for ocean color measurements, with a local noon (descending) equator crossing time orbit, fore-and-aft tilt capability, full dynamic range, and low polarization sensitivity.
The SeaWiFS instrument has scanning mechanisms to
drive an off-axis folded telescope and a rotating halfangle
mirror. Incoming scene radiation is collected
by the folded telescope and reflected onto the rotating
half-angle mirror. The collected radiation is then relayed
through dichroic beam splitters to separate the radiation
into four wavelength intervals each wavelength interval
encompassing two of the eight SeaWiFS spectral bands.
Four corresponding aft-optics direct the radiation in the
four separate wavelength intervals through two separate
spectral band-pass filters that further separate the radiation
into eight SeaWiFS spectral bands. The aft-optics
assemblies also image each of the resultant defined bands
of radiation onto four detectors that are aligned in the scan
direction. Monitoring of sensor calibration over periods of
a few orbits, to several months or years, is accomplished
using solar calibration for the former and lunar calibration

I find the Access Consciousness tools the most incredibly dynamic I've ever come across.

Let's play with possibilities for changing lives and inviting even more kindness ALL around the world! How does it get any better than that?
I have a kind and direct approach and nothing is taboo for me when it comes to areas where people would like help changing and choosing something different.
My greatest aim and priority in life is to create a world where kindness prevails and judgment is obsolete. Does that sound like the kind of world you would like to live in? What contribution can we all be today to create and actualise that with total ease right away?
What is key for me in life, no matter what I'm doing, is creating change, going beyond limitations and conclusions, and above all having fun. Is it even possible to have too much fun? I'll let you know if I ever get there!
So... there you have it. Brief synopsis of where I'm at right now. Would you like to come and play and begin changing your life right away? Of course if you don't want change with more ease and laughs than ever before, that's totally cool bananas. Although probably best if you find yourself another coach/facilitator...

Agreement Reflects Under Armour's Continued Support for the State of Maryland and Our Nation's Military
Baltimore, MD (January 16, 2014) – The Naval Academy Athletics Association and Under Armour, Inc. today announced a new multiyear partnership that designates Under Armour as the official outfitter of their varsity intercollegiate athletic programs.
Under Armour, the leading sports performance and innovation brand, will outfit all of the Naval Academy's 33 men's and women's varsity athletic teams beginning in the 2014-15 season. The comprehensive partnership also includes marketing and promotional opportunities. Under Armour has been a consistent and dedicated supporter of the military through its corporate UA Freedom initiative and long-standing association with organizations such as the Wounded Warrior Project.
"Under Armour is extremely proud to outfit the outstanding men and women who not only represent our home state of Maryland but also uphold the highest standards of the true student-athlete," said Matt Mirchin, Executive Vice President of Global Marketing, Under Armour. "The Naval Academy Athletics Association's commitment to brotherhood, tradition and values is on full display across its athletic teams, and we look forward to working with them to honor and advance the institution's rich legacy."
"We are very excited to partner with Under Armour, who continues to distinguish itself as a powerful advocate for the state of Maryland and for the nation's military as a whole," said Chet Gladchuk, Naval Academy's Director of Athletics. "As the leader in sports performance and innovation, Under Armour will provide a great service to all of our student-athletes and will offer them a competitive advantage on the field of play."
This new affiliation further expands Under Armour's leadership in providing proven performance benefits to college athletes on all playing fields. The Naval Academy Athletics Association marks the brand's twelfth Division 1 all-school partnership.
About The Naval Academy Athletic Association
The Naval Academy Athletic Association, founded in 1891 by Robert Means Thompson, is a 501C3 non-profit organization whose objective is to "promote, influence, and assist in financing the athletic contests of the midshipmen of the United States Naval Academy" in accordance with the policy of the Superintendent of the Academy.
Through an intercollegiate athletic program that is one of the largest in the country, and a highly organized club sports program and intramural sports program, each midshipman, male and female, is afforded the opportunity to compete in athletics at a level commensurate with his or her abilities. The emphasis on physical fitness is borne out in the first line of the mission of the Naval Academy: To develop midshipmen morally, mentally and physically.
The NAAA arranges the scheduling of over 500 contests in ten conference affiliations for intercollegiate athletics, including the 33 varsity sports and 12 plebe/junior varsity teams, provides coaching staffs, all operational expenses and equipment, and maintains a fully staffed central office to handle the administrative details of the intercollegiate and club sports athletic programs. In addition, it makes all arrangements for approximately 1500 student-athletes who are members of the Navy sports teams for competition either in Annapolis or when they go on the road.

The History of the Smith Island Cake
The Smith Island Baking Company, Inc. (SIBC) was founded in 2009 on Smith Island with a simple mission: to share Smith Island Cakes with the world. In doing so, we sought to benefit our bakers and employees, Smith Island, Crisfield, and broader Somerset County. Our story has been told and retold by satisfied customers and journalists alike from around the world. It's a story of the right people, the right vision, and the right community. And, of course, the right cake!
Smith Island, Maryland, is a 400-year-old fishing village of only 250 residents. Located 10 miles offshore in the Chesapeake Bay, and accessible only by ferry, it was here that the Smith Island Cake was born. Smith Island has always been a waterman's community. In the 1800's, when Smith Island men went on the autumn oyster harvest, their wives would send Smith Island Cakes as a special treat to remind them of their families and the community they had left behind. The bakers took pride in making Smith Island Cakes with the thinnest possible layers and they began using fudge instead of buttercream frosting. The watermen loved the presentation, and cakes frosted with fudge lasted much longer than cakes with other frostings.
In 2008, Maryland named the Smith Island Cake its State Dessert. In spite of the island's remote location, National Geographic says we're "Worth the Trip."
In 2009, Brian Murphy, a former commodity trader turned entrepreneur, partnered with local bakers to create a premiere national gift company right on tiny Smith Island. Brian grew up on Maryland's Eastern Shore, only 50 miles from Smith Island. In 1999, he graduated from the University of Maryland with a degree in Economics. He spent the next decade as a Portfolio Manager for Constellation Energy in Baltimore.
In May, 2008, Brian graduated with an MBA from the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School. In December, 2008, Brian decided to set out on his own, dreaming of starting a company.
In 2008, Murphy created an investment company, the Plimhimmon Group, named in honor of his late father, and he spent several months exploring everything from cement companies to lumberyards to clothing designers. But nothing felt quite right. As fate would have it, in February, 2009, Murphy and his family were on the way to visit his mother on the Eastern Shore for her birthday. On the way they stopped at a local market, and bought a birthday cake. A Smith Island Cake.
Everyone loved the cake, but Brian was surprised to learn there were no bakeries on Smith Island. Could there be? The logistical hurdles were many, and they were obvious. But the idea of a premier gift company shipping cakes all over the world from the tiny island was too interesting to pass up. So the due diligence began. In April, 2009, Murphy met with local bakers in the Tylerton church basement and the Smith Island Baking Co. was founded. The women called the idea, "an answer to prayer".
They began building the company from scratch. The web site, the shopping cart, new logos to capture the spirit of the island, custom packaging, cake tins, and a refined, made-from-scratch recipe were just the beginning.
Word of our little bakery quickly spread. Just six months after opening our doors, we were overwhelmed by the Christmas demand and we had to turn away customers! We grew from shipping a few cakes a week, to a few dozen... to a few hundred! Before we knew it, we had shipped cakes to all 50 states, and more than 2,500 cities in seven countries. We had secured our place as the premier baker of Smith Island Cakes and as a growing national gift company.
As the company grew, and our number of retail customers grew, we also landed some of the most prestigious wholesale accounts, including Neiman Marcus, Hammacher Schlemmer, Nordstrom Cafe, Oriole Park at Camdan Yards, Harris Teeter and QVC. The demand quickly outpaced the tiny bakery on the island's capacity, and expanding on the island was impossible. While the ferry could only ship 150 cakes a day, on a good day our customers would order more than 1,000! To meet demand, we opened an additional bakery in Crisfield in 2013. Crisfield is the closest town to the island, and the place from where the daily ferry arrives and departs.
SIBC's commitment to our employees and to Smith Island is second only to our commitment to our customers. In 2015, we came to the conclusion that the limitations and logistical hurdles associated with operating a commercial bakery of the island could negatively impact customer experience. We love our customers, and our employees agreed we could never let that happen! We consider ourselves to be custodians of a treasure, and we take that stewardship extremely seriously. For that reason, SIBC consolidated all commercial operations in Crisfield. SIBC offered to pay the ferry fare for those employees who wanted to work in the Crisfield facility.
The Smith Island Baking Co. has had a wonderful first ten years, and we look forward to a brighter tomorrow. Smith Island, Crisfield, and Somerset County are special places in Maryland history, and in United States history. At the Smith Island Baking Co., we are excited by the financial impact we continue to have on the island and Somerset County.
From all of us at the Smith Island Baking Co., thank you for taking the time to read the story of our company and the Smith Island Cake. We hope you'll consider trying one of our made-from-scratch Smith Island Cakes at your next event, and we look forward to serving you and your loved ones.

The story of The Devil and The Monk Cupcakes begins in 1812 with a beer…
A brewmaster in an abbey brewery in the year 1812 made ale without weighing or measuring the barley malt. This would have been most impressive – had he always gotten the measurements correct. One day, his weighing was particularly askew and the whole abbey got so drunk that they believed themselves to be possessed by the devil. (This part of the tale comes from Les Memoires de Jef Lambic, Editions La Technique Belge, Brussels, undated; via Brewing Techniques.)
…continues with an abbey cheese…
Regular readers may recall that I posted recently about Chaumes cheese (a Trappist monk-style cheese that I received from Ile de France). I imagine that in their stupor, the monks would have questioned the devil's involvement in this strange cheese that smells like passed gas but tastes like heaven.
…and concludes with a cupcake.
While I don't believe that there is any connection between devil's food cake and monks, I thought that in light of the historic beer mistake, the freakish cheese, and the desire of monks to rid themselves of the devil's influence, I would create a devil's food cake cupcake featuring both Trappist Ale and Chaumes cheese.
As for the taste: The Devil and The Monk Cupcakes will be devoured before you can say, "Amen."

qwood – Wooden quadcopter frame
by armageddon on May.26, 2014, under Multicopter, Projects
A while ago I built a small quadcopter testbed by sawing a cross out of a laminate floor tile. This works, but is ugly. Normally, for a "test", this doesn't matter. However, in the scope of my student project, I got my hands on an Autoquad. Since I should include pictures of my testbed in the documantation for the project, I decided that I needed a somewhat nice looking frame for the thing.
I bothered my head about a nice design for a wooden frame. I took about two weeks until I finally got around to actually start designing it. I also felt like I should give solidworks a try. This was in an early stage:
This weekend, I was at shackspace, finalizing the design and using the laser cutter to cut the 3mm birch wood I got from Balsabar. Apparently, you can tell them what quality grade of wood you want in the comment section before placing the order. I did not know that, but the wood I received had only a few knots, which is okay. Especially if you compare it to wood from the hardware store.
I found the nice rendering feature of solidworks, so here is a rendering of the final design:
I intentionally left out the connection piece on the bottom of the landing gear (you can see the slot for it) because I was still unsure of how to go about it and finally wanted to see some results. There will definitely be something to make the landing gear sturdier.
I had huge problems lasering it with a snug fit. The kerf compensation feature, or "sew compensation" as the cheap china software "LaserWorksV5″ calls it, somehow always crashed the software. Turns out in that version they broke it for circles. Yeah. Right. You couldn't even laser a simple kerf-compensated circle. Unfortunately, that took me 2 hours to figure out. It worked when I used an older version of the laser software I had still lying around on my disk. It was also somewhere around this time that I came up with the name "qwood".
Even with the kerf compensation working (or did it?), I could not get the precise fit I was hoping for. I had to sand the intelocking tabs and the corresponding holes to finally make it fit. Anyways, have a look at the result!
I have some more pictures over at Imgur!
Also, have a look at how the parts are connected. There is no glue! Just nylon screws and nuts.
I guess this thing is far from perfect and still untested at this point. Although it weighs only 167g, it feels pretty stable. My only concerns are the landing gears and torsion stability.
Next up: Electronics!
Drop a comment if you like it or have questions, ideas and suggestions!

First, from today's strip: Rex Chestington rides again! If there's one thing that I enjoy drawing, it's a duck in a cowboy hat. These are some of my favorite storylines, so I'll hope you'll indulge me as Rex, Li'l Britches, and Flaco head out on the dusty trail for a while.
But the thing I particularly wanted to talk about today was volunteers. The strip transcriptions are going really well...so much so that I'm realizing I have now become the bottleneck. See, the system allows anyone to transcribe a strip, but right now only I can edit and approve them before they go "live". And the truth of it is, I can't keep up with all you folks transcribing!
So here's what I'm thinking: if you've been transcribing strips, and really enjoying it, you should consider becoming one of three select Sheldon Editors. These three primo Sheldon readers would have the power to edit and approve all transcriptions. It's like having the power of the sun! And to help sweeten the pot even more, these three folks will also get a personalized package of goodies:
- An original, "finished" character sketch of their choosing, drawn on Bristol vellum paper, using archival india inks (perfect for framing)
- Personally inscribed copies of "The Good, The Bad & The Pugly" and "Pure Ducky Goodness"
- A high-five any time I walk by
If you're interested, and have strong enough editorial chops to pass muster, e-mail me with the subject heading "Sheldon Editor", and I'll tell you the next steps on Thursday.
PS: If you hadn't yet seen it, here's the cover for the second Sheldon book, "The Good, The Bad & The Pugly". Special pre-orders will start on Sunday night...but only for newsletter subscribers! So make sure you sign up!

Forget the tour bus. Never mind the generic city tour. Tourist traps be gone!
Welcome to Berlin. My name is Jeremy, and I will be your guide.
I came to Berlin 19 years ago. An American Jew living in the German capital. I have walked almost every inch of this city, exploring its tormented and rich history, living its dynamic present. There was a lot of homework to do here. I've done it all. Let me share it with you.
I offer custom-made tours for English speakers visiting Berlin. No need to tell you that Germany's history is a difficult one. I've asked the hard questions since I arrived and would be glad to share with you what I've heard. But there is also a vibrant transition taking place in Berlin. Let me show you.

My Fees
This is not my job. This is my passion and hobby. I don't have set fees. You name your price. Please contact me for details.
Socially Responsible
I love Berlin and I like to give back whenever possible. Therefore, a portion of the fee always goes to charity: either to a Berlin Jewish educational or cultural organization or to a Berlin school that helps integrate HIV positive children into mainstream society. No other tour guide in Berlin does this.
How will we tour?
Like a native Berliner! "Ich bin ein Berliner". This means I am a Berliner. And like the locals, we'll use public transport such as trams, buses, the Underground and S Bahn trains. And of course, there will be some walking or biking. For those who prefer less or no walking, please contact me for other options. Duration of tours is based on interest, time and weather, ranging from 1/2 day to full day.

Living Legacy Winners: Jeremy and Jimbo Evans
My name is Jeremy Evans.
When I was very young I met this guy named Jimbo Evans. He became my stepdad eventually and he has instilled his love of the game of bowling in me. He came into my life and raised me to be the best person and bowler that I could be.
All my life growing up I heard stories of how good he was and of course I could sit and watch him practice, bowl league, or compete in regionals. Well, not that it's all said and done, but 20+ years later after watching him shoot numerous honor scores, winning all the titles at state tournament, winning 7 regionals, filling up a PBA 300 ring, and being inducted into 3 hall of fames (Texas, Houston, and Pasadena), the legacy doesn't stop there. You can move onto the other side of the game as he has been head mechanic for 10+ years, ran pro shops and just recently bought his own center and runs it in Lubbock, Tx.
He is my inspiration for the living legacy contest. Not only is he an ambassador of the game but he is my dad!
Thank you

Four players, Tyler Newhart, a right-handed pitcher from John A. Logan Community College; Connor Sinclair, a right-handed pitcher from Butler Community College; Hunter Brothers, a right-handed pitcher from Shelbyville (Tenn.) Central High School and Chris Orphanos, a right-handed pitcher from Murfreesboro (Tenn.) Riverdale High School.
Newhart, a sophomore, is 6-2, 200 pounds. He is from West Branch High School in Alliance, Ohio. He played his freshman season for Wright State, posting a 1-1 record and a 7.29 earned run average. He was both a mid-season all-star and a first team all-league player in the Great Lakes Summer Collegiate League.
"The velocity and experience is there with Tyler," said Lipscomb coach Jeff Forehand. "He is going to come in with a resume ready to earn one of those conference rotation starter spots.
"Hopefully, he will have another good junior college year. He has great velocity with his pitches."
Sinclair, 6-1, 190, from Goddard High School in Wichita, Kan., was 9-3 last season at Butler with a 6.31 earned run average. He made 15 appearances, including 13 starts. He struck out 50 batters in 61.1 innings.
He will serve as team captain at Butler this season.
"Conner is excited to be a Bison," said Forehand. "He chose us over three other schools that we thought were all in the running for him.
"He had a great fall in junior college and won several awards from his teammates. On top of being a good pitcher, he is going to be the hardest worker on the team too."
Hunter, 6-1, 200, is the younger brother of Rex Brothers, the former Lipscomb pitcher who was picked 34th in the first round of the Major League Draft by the Colorado Rockies. Hunter has been a dual-sports star at Central where he was an All-Region performer at linebacker in football.
"We know Hunter comes from a good bloodline of pitchers," said Forehand. "We are expecting him to come in here and chew up some innings early on the mound. We are glad the Brothers family is back in the mix at Lipscomb."
Rex has often said that Hunter was developing quicker than he did as a high school player. Forehand doesn't want to put any additional pressure on Hunter because of Rex's success.
"Hunter has the same work ethic as Rex," said Forehand. "He is going to continue to press and press to be the best pitcher he can be. I think Hunter has a great chance to develop into a good pitcher."
Orphanos, 5-8, 170 pounds, was an All-District selection as a junior. He was 6-2 with a 2.19 ERA as a sophomore and 6-2 with a 2.00 ERA as a junior.
He plays for the Franklin Outlaws in the summer, a team coach by Lipscomb assistant coach Brian Ryman.
"We have watched Chris for two or three years," said Forehand. "He is not 6-5 and long and lanky. But he is the guy who can come in and consistently get outs.
"He throws a lot of strikes. He has good action on his pitches. We think he can come in and be ready to get on the mound for us soon. He competes against good competition and gets those guys out. We hope he can come in and be another Brandon McClurg for us."

Note: all plugins are now included with the ZBrush 4R7 installer. If you did not install a plugin then run the installer again.
For the latest information see the online docs here : http://docs.pixologic.com/user-guide/zbrush-plugins/
With 3DPrint Exporter you will be able to export your favorite ZTool in STL and VRML file formats, opening you to the world of 3D Printing.
Who has never dreamed about having your virtual sculpting in "real" 3D, standing on your desk? Now it's possible for you to print your ZBrush models:
Main features
- Sculpt your art with ZBrush
- Optimize if needed your model with the Decimation Master plugin
- Export it with 3D Print Exporter
"The new decimation and STL exportation tools have filled the weakest link in my work flow from creation to fabrication. you could spend many thousands of dollars and not get a better decimator or translator."
- Export in STL, Binary and Ascii.
- Export in VRML.
- Size in Inches and millimeters.
- Export the current or all the SubTools.
T.S. Wittelsbach - House of Wittelsbach - Jeweller
"The 3D Print Exporter continues to save my life on a daily basis. The quality I'm able to get out of ZBrush as a usable file that my other programs can handle has made me a happy camper. You have just opened up a new world for me!."
Adam Ross - Idol Workshop
"Finally! - a direct export from ZBrush to print format! This tool will help decrease the time it takes to get a ZBrush sculpture ready for 3d print production, and open up the services of most 3D Printing Service Bureaus."
Bill Henderson - Creative Director - Offload Studios Inc.
"Going from the final design to rapid protoyping ready parts has been a timely production within itself... That has now been eliminated with Decimation Master and the 3D Printer Exporter plugin for ZBrush. The ability to go directly from ZBrush to a optimized scaled prototype part, eliminating any other software in between, is priceless. Once again Pixologic turns the technical to art."

Tamao Shigemune: Modern Kimono To Die For
So you think you can't rock a kimono because you're not Japanese? Think again! Tamao Shigemune designs modern versions of traditional Japanese women's wear with a distinctly Parisian twist, and guess what? You can see them (and try her new summer collection on!) right now in Tokyo, through Sunday March 26th.
Tamao Shigemune will be showing her collection at that Gallery Triplet on the 4th floor of Minami Aoyama 3-8-2 from 12:00 til 19:00, every day through Sunday, March 26, 2017. Here's a link to the Tamao Shigemune web shop in case you want to feast your eyes on the lovelies but can't make it to the show (and, uh, you'll probably kill me for telling you this, but she ships internationally!)
If you ARE in Tokyo and want to try them on in person, here's a Google map link to the Gallery Triplet. It's a little hard to find – the ground floor of the building is a restaurant, and you have to go down the narrow and unpromising-looking alley to the left to find the elevator, which you can't see from the alleay. It's hidden at the end, to the right.

I posted on campaign ads earlier this week and one of the ads mentioned in the article was Johnson's famous "Daisy Ad," which was only broadcast once (September 7, 1964):
At the time, the ad had shock value and reinforced the image that many Americans had of Republican nominee Barry Goldwater as a warmonger. In fact, Johnson and his advisers decided that running the commercial more than once would be overkill. They also knew that the news media would give it extensive coverage, which they did. LBJ won in a landslide.
Now, of course, I had to go find it and since I now understand how to embed YouTube videos, I thought I'd share it here as well. I promise this is the last old campaign ad for awhile!

Our payment comes from the castles we work with, allowing you to freely benefit from our accumulated expertise, saving you hours of time spent on research and phone calls. Unlike most of our competitors, we don't try to hide the names of the castles we feature, in order to stop you booking directly, as we don't see why you will want to!

Hi Kevin, Hope you are doing great. You have always provided me with outstanding legal references here in Denver. I wanted to see if you or someone you know would be open to having me use you in future instances where I would need legal advice. Kind of thinking having a good attorney on my speed dial these days is a good idea and I just don't know anyone for that. Mainly looking at government encroachment based on some national stories I have been reading and it seems if you have a good attorney, you have a better chance at having your constitutional rights protected. What are your thoughts on that? Thank you, Kurt
I was wondering where the two threads on the shelter comparisons went. It's been a couple of days....
No, I don't do employment law, but I do know some folks if you need a referral. Good luck.
Kevin, You are not by chance any kind of employment lawyer in Colorado are you? Going through hell at work and wondering what kind of pain my non compete will cause me if I go head to head with my current employer. Let me know as I have a lawyer I am about to retain next week on this. Thank you, Kurt Brockman

2) It's pure HW mod. Software has no access to such control. Sync on green requires negative polarity for sync signal which is impossible to make without HW mod.
In theory, it may be possible to simulate negative polarity by shifting black to some level and use 0 as a negative value - it may reduce the effective range of video output and make white not so white but gray.
Anyway, it's up to core, as only FPGA has access to VGA output. So, core developer needs to implement such feature (if it will work).

Pumpkin: Way More than Pie
Pumpkins are so versatile and a total fall necessity. We usually don't think of using pumpkins the same way we do other types of squash, but they're actually quite similar and can certainly have applications in your everyday kitchen. Read below to learn how to get the most out of this autumn staple.
How it's grown:
Thanks to the fall pastime of visiting pumpkin patches, most people at least have a great visual of how pumpkins are grown. The timing of the planting is quite particular. Overly early planting can increase the risk of frost damage the likelihood of rotting prior to the Halloween season. Pumpkins require abundant space to grow and they are susceptible to multiple pests as well as mildew. Like almost all agriculture, growing large, mature, beautiful pumpkins requires a farmer's expertise and a little luck!
How to shop for it:Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
Purchase pumpkins that are firm and heavy for their size. This indicates ideal ripeness. Smaller pumpkins are much easier to handle when prepping from the fresh state and are more likely to have consistent taste.
How to store it:
Pumpkins should be stored in a cool, dark place. If stored correctly, pumpkins can keep for up to 2 months.
How to prepare it:
- Slice both ends (stem and base) to get a flat top and bottom.
- Cut in half vertically, and scrape out seeds from each half.
- Cut into wedges/smaller pieces.
- At this point, you can peel and dice, and use in the raw state. Or you can roast the pumpkin wedges, which will cause the skin to be easily removed once cool (you can puree roasted, peeled pumpkin and freeze for use all winter).
- Make sure to save the seeds to roast for a high-fiber snack!
How to eat it:
- Fresh chunks of pumpkin can be added to pasta, chili or beef stew for color, texture, flavor and boosted nutrition.
- Stuff roasted mini pumpkins with wild rice, pecan and dried cranberry pilaf.
- Combine fresh pumpkin puree with light cream cheese, pumpkin pie spice and a bit of sweetener for a great fall dip.
- For a quick breakfast or snack, make pumpkin energy bites. Combine 1 cup oats, 1 cup pumpkin puree, 2 tablespoons mini chocolate chips, 2 teaspoons brown sugar, 2 tablespoons protein powder and roll into balls.
- Use fresh pumpkin puree in homemade macaroni and cheese for a creamy and nutritious twist.
Nutritional highlights:
The rich orange color of pumpkins hint at their beta carotene content, a compound converted to vitamin A that acts as an antioxidant in cells. Beta carotene intake may be related to heart health and overall protection from chronic disease. One cup of pumpkin also contains 3 grams fiber and 564 milligrams potassium, important nutrients for digestive health and blood pressure regulation, respectively.

Happy Wednesday!
I'm back again with another card using the new Peacock Paisley Collection from Heartfelt Creations! This time I used the Feathered Daisy image and added an extra flower over the flower on the image with the Delightful Daisies Set.
The image and flower are colored with pencils and mineral spirits. I really had fun playing with the greens and blues on this...I just love to color! After I die cut and shaped the flower, I sponged a little Baja Blue Chalk Ink on the back to blend it with the image better.
The Aquarium card stock is die cut with the Timeless Rectangles Die which I thought was pretty with the image and colors. The teal button is repurposed from my stash of extra buttons I get with new clothes...I have been saving all of them for years and finally started using them last year. One of these days I'll be needing an extra button missing from my clothes and realize it has been already repurposed!
Be sure to visit the HC Blog to see what the designers have created for you this week! What a talented bunch of ladies they are! Also, Emma Lou has a new technique video for you showing you her tips when working with vellum!
