Ok, so i went in to get my eyes checked again and the prescription has gotten a bit better. Albeit things still look fuzzy. The prescription at this point is
OD pl -1.00x005
OS +.75 -1.00x1.75
So its headed in the right direction, but the astigmatism hasnt changed really. What are the chances the astigmatism will actually get better?
If my left eye gets to plano as well, what are the chances of a good outcome with an enhancement with 1.00 astigmatisms?
If i could see really well up close or really well far away i think id be happier, but it seems these astigmatism just keep things fuzzy throughout. Or am i crazy when i think of it that way. I also blame the astigmatisms for poor vision in limited light, but that only becuase i think i read it somewhere. Is that true too. Really debating on what to do. Trying to stay positive. Still have eye pains and headaches, not sure if they are caused by straining or what the deal is.
Thanks ahead of time for anyone with help.

This weekend was a sad one. We drove into our hometown to attend the funeral of a man that served as mentor, friend and father to my husband. His death was unexpected. It was the kind of parting that left you wishing that you'd had just one more conversation and one more hug.
When my husband and I were dating, he took me to meet this man. This was the test. This man's perception of me mattered more than anyone else's and he wouldn't hesitate to tell you what he thought. The girl Justin dated before me didn't pass this test. She was pulled aside and told, "I've checked up on you and I know exactly who you are. If you hurt Justin in any way you will be sorry."
My husband ended up breaking it off with her. I was never pulled aside. Instead, when we were expecting our first child, this man used to reach out and scratch my itchy pregnant belly just to see me twitch my leg in ecstasy like a dog. Then he grinned because he knew that even his scratching my belly was a lesson that he was teaching his bonus son. He taught Justin many lessons in the more than thirty years they knew one another.
This man, as wise as he was, was also a sin eater. I think his capacity to take on and absolve others of their sins is what ultimately took him.
If you've never heard the term, a sin eater is a person who takes into themselves the sins of another so that a person can go into the next life free of the weights they carried in this life.
This man was always taking in people like lost puppies and doing what he could to hold them, help them, comfort them and then, when it was necessary, telling them to cut the shit. He had good friends in the highest of places and better friends in the low, and it mattered very little to him why you'd found yourself in either walk of life. He was always happy to see you and to be your friend.
But, as it is with sin eaters, eventually the sins become heavy and destructive. People begin to treat you as if you are unclean and it's also the way you treat yourself. Friends from high places and low places drop away. People watch and gossip from afar, speculating, and taking delight in your fall. They forget all the good you'd brought to the world and poison what's left, all the while trying to find someone else, a replacement, to comfort them by eating their sins. Someone whose glass house hasn't shattered.
My husband's friend, mentor, father...he grew tired, the people who loved him tried to eat his sins, and now I pray to God that he rests well.
My husband is a better man because of you.

This is a case where market forces actually work, and we shouldn't get too het-up about this.
Google's sole job is to give me results I want to see. While it continues to do this, everything's fine. When it stops doing so, I'll find somewhere else to search.
How google do this isn't important to me, and probably 90% of people
Well, if you want market force to work, you need to inform people first.
As much as I agree personalization is sometimes useful (like when I'm searching for "Go", I would like to bias it towards programming), it's by pointing its downside that we are going to :
1) Have Google improve it or give more control to users
2) Get enough people interested in an alternative
Indeed, I've become extremely frustrated with Google's personalized search when I try to find something outside my sphere. It's gotten so bad that I'll open Google through a web proxy in a private session just to find what I'm looking for.
I've tried alternatives like Yahoo, Bing and DuckDuckGo but the results are even more obtuse than what I get from Google's search manipulation.
And interestingly, Bing on my phone (WP7 so it's the default search engine) gives me entirely different results than Bing on the desktop, whether I'm on the same connection or not.

The group exhibition New Perspectives on Landscape at the Ashburton Art Gallery encompasses a similar spirit and intention. It presents the work of five recent MFA graduates from the Dunedin School of Art: Robyn Bardas, Miranda Joseph, Hannah Joynt, Sue Pearce and Fiona Van Oyen. All are conscious of the politics and history of their subject and its increasing potential to contribute to debate about environmental, personal and political relationships with nature within the context of contemporary arts practice.
"All the artists in this exhibition are answering the same question: 'when the landscape compels a response, how can we acknowledge the history of painting and art theory to provide critical integrity and validity to our response'," says Mandy Joseph.
Read more.... Warren Feeney looks into the legacy of traditional landscape paintings in this Press article.
New Perspectives is curated by Clive Humphreys. It is a touring exhibition from the Dunedin School of Art featuring the work of Robyn Bardas, Miranda Joseph, Hannah Joynt, Sue Pearce and Fiona Van Oyen.
New Perspectives on Landscape, Ashburton Art Gallery, 327 West Street, until January 14.

Like a photo editor, if you've got an eye for great work, find it and submit it to a contest. If it wins, since you staked the entry fee, you'll take home part of the prize (the rest, of course, goes to the member who shot the image).

text: I was trying to do a search today on "77 p-bass" before I posted my thread up in basses, and it wouldn't let me search because every word must have a minumum of 3 letters. I'm sure there are lots of people who have run into this similar problem. Is there anyway you could change that? Sorry I can't find a way to phrase that without sounding pushy, whiny, ect.

GUESSING what you meant above is something like this (as you keep writing things like "accesslog parameters" instead of the real thing) <slapd.conf excerpt> database bdb suffix "dc=example,dc=com" rootdn "cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com" rootpw secret #null#bind on directory testrun/db.1.a index objectClass eq index cn,sn,uid pres,eq,sub overlay dynlist dynlist-attrset groupOfURLs memberURL memberUid overlay syncprov overlay accesslog logdb cn=log logops writes reads logold (objectclass=person) dynlist-attrset posixGroup memberURL memberUid:uid </slapd.conf excerpt> or any permutation of the dynlist-attrset statement, like both before overlay syncprov, or both at the end, or anywhere between "overlay syncrepl" and the last "log*" statement, I get the expected result. So now the only way to keep this ITS open is to see your ENTIRE slapd.conf (except passwords, of course). An even better alternative would be to receive a sanitized slapd.conf, a LDIF and a search operation based on ldapsearch that clearly illustrates the issue, like what I posted a couple of postings ago. p.

Bintang Pilsener
by Jessica Sanchez on 02/12/2013 | 2 Minute Read
"Bintang is the leading brand of beer in Indonesia. The brand occupies more than 50% of the market share and has always been positioned as 'Indonesia's Favourite Beer'. Innovation Kitchen was asked to develop a Limited Edition Can and secondary packaging, celebrating the excitement around the brand during the festive season. With Christmas, New Year and the Lunar New Year, the design should not be too specific to a particular festival. The design also had to be in line with the brand values of being 'modern, progressive and trendy'.
"Challenge: As Indonesia moves towards a 'dark market' with restrictions implemented on alcohol advertising, the challenge is to increase brand presence and consumer awareness through on-ground activation.
Solution: "Our solution captures the excitement and celebratory feel without being too focused on Christmas alone. The modern and bold design also gives Bintang greater shelf stand-out, ensuring that Bintang is still the leading choice of beer for the festive occasion" says Creative Director Dale Evans."

HAMPDEN-SYDNEY, VA - Ryan Martin (Midlothian, VA / Cosby) scored with only 1.6 seconds left on the clock to give the Tigers a 9-8 season-opening win over Mary Washington. The win also gave Head Coach Ray Rostan his 300th career win.
The freezing cold conditions complemented by snow throughout the entire game did not prove to be a fan friendly atmosphere, but the two teams made up for it with a thrilling finish. The Tigers got the ball back with less than 20 seconds to go and Martin backed down his defender before turning around and firing off a shot low into the net for the game-winner.
Hampden-Sydney led 3-2 after one quarter as Thomas Armstrong (Charlotte, NC / Charlotte Latin) and Abbot Wallenborn (Crozet, VA / Western Albemarle) posted man up scores in addition to Jess Hawthorne's (Richmond, VA / Collegiate) even strength goal. Luke Dick provided both goals for Mary Washington.
The Tigers further built on their lead with a 3-1 second quarter to head in to halftime up 6-3. Armstrong scored another man up goal at the 12:56 mark while Mike Funk (Chantilly, VA / Middleburg) found the back of the net with 7:41 left in the half. Billy Kelly scored his first goal at 6:02 to make it a 5-3 H-SC lead, but Martin posted a goal with 42 seconds to go to make it 6-3.
The tide changed in the second-half as Billy Kelly caught fire for the Eagles. He scored at 13:57 and then again at 12:30 to cut their deficit down to just 6-5. Wallenborn scored his second goal of the game at 8:51 to help keep Mary Washington at bay, but Kelly posted his third goal of the quarter to make it a 7-6 contest. Hawthorne and Chris Garcia traded scores to end the quarter with the Tigers up 8-7.
Offense became a premium in the fourth quarter despite Mary Washington having five man up opportunities in the final frame. Their lone man up goal of the quarter ended up tying the game when Matt Ganskopp put the ball in the net at the 7:29 mark. Martin then finished off the game on his buzzer-beating goal.
Armstrong contributed two goals and one assist while Hawthorne and Martin each had two scores. Corey Mavromatis (Virginia Beach, VA / Cape Henry) dished out two assists, and Funk contributed one goal and one assist. Brad Mostowy (Atlanta, GA / Alpharetta (GA) / Trinity Pawling (NY)) was dominant on face-offs, winning 14-of-20 attempts with 15 ground balls. Cody Hornung (Bala Cynwyd, PA / Lower Merion) and David Noftsinger (Richmond, VA / Collegiate School) each had a strong half of goaltending. Hornung got the start for the first half as he made seven saves while allowing just three goals. Noftsinger got the start in the net after halftime and also tallied seven saves while allowing five scores.
Kelly led all players with four goals for the Eagles. Dick added on two goals and an assist while Garcia had one score and two helpers. Zack Del Grosso made eight saves between the pipes.
Hampden-Sydney held a 38-25 advantage in ground balls and won 15-of-21 face-offs. Mary Washington had just 14 turnovers compared to 25 for H-SC, and the Eagles also outshot the Tigers 37-32. Man-up offense and defense proved to be a major factor. H-SC was an efficient 3-for-5 on man-up while UMW struggled with just a 2-9 output on EMOs.
Hampden-Sydney will host #3 Stevenson University next Saturday at 1 pm.

The Missouri Autism Research & Response Agenda (MARRA)
How did MARRA come about?
Quick Links
The Missouri Autism Research and Response Agenda (MARRA) is an exciting collaboration to develop public policy that addresses the needs of children with autism, their families, and the agencies that provide services. The idea for MARRA began during hearings held by the Missouri Senate Joint Committee on Autism, sponsored by Senators Roseanne Bentley and Sydney Johnson. As a result of these hearings, Dr. Anne S. Deaton, then the Director of the Missouri Division of Developmental Disabilities, Department of Mental Health, organized a symposium held on May 6, 2002, in Jefferson City.
Symposium participants included representatives from a host of state agencies, prestigious state and private universities, the Missouri State Senate, and the Coordinating Board for Higher Education. In addition to these table participants, scores of individuals and families sat in the audience throughout the daylong proceedings.
The symposium participants pointed out that autism spectrum disorders (ASD) constitute a pressing public health problem. The prevalence of these conditions is rising dramatically nationwide and they are associated with enormous costs in terms of disability and required state-supported services. Currently, there is not enough scientific information internationally, nationally, regionally, or within Missouri to address the most critical issues related to ASD. For example, there is a lack of high-quality data on incidence, prevalence, and the effectiveness of specific interventions and treatments.
What can MARRA do?
MARRA establishes a cohesive, integrated research agenda that, if made operational, can positively affect the lives of people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and their families. The intent of MARRA is not to capture a one-time effort but to establish a framework under which collaborative partnerships between stakeholders, research institutions, and service providers can enhance the lives of people with ASD and their families.
What are MARRA's primary goals?
- To implement a statewide screening effort
- To establish a voluntary registry that would identify the prevalence of children with autism, their service needs, and their progress over time; and
- To develop sophisticated interagency collaborations that improve information sharing.
What is MARRA's impact?
To date, the presence of strong state and university partnerships through MARRA influenced the recent endowment of the Thompson Center for Autism and Neurodevelopmental Disorders at the University of Missouri-Columbia. The relationships developed within MARRA also have fortified collaboration between public and private universities to further autism research.
This research and response agenda is unique to Missouri and supports our state's role as a national and international leader in research, education, service provision, and public policy regarding ASD.

West Texas A&M kicker Sergio Castillo connected on a 21-yard field goal with 49 seconds to play and the fourth-ranked Buffaloes won a thrilling 34-31 game over Chadron State to open the Lone Star Conference Football Festival at AT&T Stadium in Dallas. The game was the NCAA Division II Game of the Week and broadcast nationally on CBS Sports Network.
The Eagles, ranked 18th, burst out of the gates on the Cowboys' home turf, scoring 21 consecutive points in the opening quarter and led 31-16 in the fourth quarter, but the Buffs scored 17 unanswered points to escape with the victory.
The game couldn't have started any better for the Eagles. Glen Clinton scored on a 77-yard run on the Eagles' first play and defensive end Dillon Breinig recovered a West Texas fumble less than a minute later. On the ensuing play, quarterback Jonn McLain, who completed 28 of 40 passes for 222 yards, found Nathan Ross all alone in the end zone for a 7-yard TD.
Following a Buffs' punt, the Eagles put together their finest drive of the night, traveling 82 yards in 17 plays. Michael Madkins, who rushed for 89 yards, plunged into the end zone from a yard out to put CSC up, 21-0.
West Texas responded with a long drive of its own – 86 yards in 14 plays – culminating in Castillo's 21-yard field goal. The Eagles answered with a field goal of their own midway through the second quarter when Randy Wentz boomed a 33 yarder.
The kicking spree ended late in the quarter after Castillo cut the Eagles' lead to 24-6 with a 29-yard field goal.
The second half belonged to the Buffs as they outscored Chadron State, 28-7. The Eagles' only score came on a 52-yard run up the middle from Michael Madkins, giving CSC a 31-16 advantage.
However, West Texas A&M's Aaron Harris scored two TDs in the fourth quarter and Castillo nailed the game-winning field goal following a 10-play, 67-yard drive.
The game was evenly matched. Chadron State finished with 464 yards, West Texas A&M had 462. West Texas quarterback Dustin Vaughn completed 29 of 41 passes for 353 yards and one TD. Torrence Allen had eight receptions for 124 yards and Harris added 103 yards on the ground. Lane Haller led Chadron State's defense with 15 tackles and Shea Koch had 10.
The Eagles will host Colorado Mesa Saturday at noon for Family Day.

By Moira O'Neil, Abigail Haydon, and Nathaniel Kendall-Taylor
Advocates and experts working on behalf of older Americans have long suspected that media representations of aging are inaccurate. Scholarly research confirms this assertion. Compared to other age groups, older adults—particularly older women—are grossly under-represented in the media (Raman et al., 2008). When the media do feature older adults, they present one of two extreme characterizations: frail, diseased, senile, and dependent—or active, healthy, and wholly independent (see, for example, Featherstone and Wernick, 2003; Holstein and Minkler, 2003; Katz, 2000; Rozanova, 2010; Rozanova, Northcott, and McDaniel, 2006).
Read this entire issue on AgeBlog
These negative representations feed problematic public perceptions of the aging process and stereotypes about older Americans. Ironically, the media's positive images of aging are just as unproductive, as they link successful aging to individual lifestyle and consumption choices (e.g., choosing to eat well, having the drive to exercise regularly, and being disciplined in financial matters). By equating successful aging with individual choice, and ignoring the social supports necessary to enact these decisions or the structural factors that constrain them, media depictions imply that most older Americans simply fail to choose to "age well." These media patterns shape and constrain public opinion about aging.
Media is not the only source of information available to the public, however. Advocacy organizations disseminate an abundance of materials about older Americans via websites, magazines, newsletters, issue briefs, reports, and other formats. These materials are equally powerful in shaping public narratives about the process of aging. To the degree that these organizational materials reinforce media representations, they further contribute to the establishment of social norms about aging. To the degree that they offer alternative ways to think about aging, they have the potential to expand people's perceptions. Understanding the stories advocacy organizations tell provides a more complete picture of how people think about aging and suggests ways to shift public understanding toward a wider, more productive public discourse on aging and older Americans.
This article presents results from an analysis of advocacy organizations' narratives about aging and older adults. We focus on the implications of these results for those seeking to move public understanding in more productive directions, and for ultimately increasing support for policies and programs necessary to promote the well-being of older adults and to ensure their full participation in American society.
This research was conducted by the FrameWorks Institute, and is part of a larger collaborative project sponsored by the Leaders of Aging Organizations, a group administered by Grantmakers in Aging that includes AARP, the American Federation for Aging Research, the American Geriatrics Society, the American Society on Aging, the Gerontological Society of America, the National Council on Aging, and the National Hispanic Council on Aging. Laura Robbins, of Laura A. Robbins Consulting, LLC, and the Guest Editor for this issue of Generations, managed the project, which seeks to develop a new, evidence-based narrative about the process of aging, and the roles and contributions of older Americans in our society.
To conduct the study, we collaborated with our project partners to create a list of more than fifty organizations working on issues related to aging and older Americans. We then conducted a hyperlink analysis using a Web-based application called "Issue Crawler" to identify twenty of the most influential organizations in the field of aging. We gathered public-facing communication materials (e.g., press releases, mission statements, and reports) from each organization, and then coded these materials (n=171) for the presence or absence of the following set of narrative components:
- Topic: What is the issue or problem covered in the document?
- Value: What is at stake, or why is this issue a central concern?
- Cause: How does this problem work, and who or what is causing it?
- Success: How does the document characterize a more optimal outcome?
- Solution: Who or what is responsible for addressing the issue?
After coding each document, we used a technique called cluster analysis to identify narratives. This approach identifies the degree to which specific narrative elements co-occur across the set of organizational materials analyzed. Additional details on these methods are available elsewhere (Simon, O'Neil, and Haydon, 2015).
Advocacy Organizations' Narratives of Aging and Older Adults
Our analysis found that advocacy organizations are disseminating six distinct narratives about aging and older adults. Figure 1 (below) shows the percentage of documents that contained each of these narratives, indicating which narratives are most prominent in discourse—and therefore most likely to shape the public's thinking about aging and older Americans.
The "Throwaway Generation" narrative
The "Throwaway Generation" narrative focuses on negative treatment of older adults, particularly elder abuse and discrimination. This was the most frequent narrative used in advocacy materials. The narrative holds private industry—such as nursing homes, assisted living facilities, or private employers—accountable for the maltreatment of older adults. Proposed solutions typically involve changes to these institutions, such as greater oversight of employees who work with older Americans, or increased legal protections for workplace discrimination. The narrative asserts that the issue of elder abuse requires policy-level action. The narrative also frequently casts the maltreatment of older Americans as a violation of human and civil rights.
The "Vibrant Senior" narrative
The "Vibrant Senior" narrative centers on a particular definition of successful aging: the maintenance of physical activity. This narrative focuses on how older Americans must decide to remain active. Motivation, willpower, and individual action figure prominently in this narrative, as do "epiphany moments"—older adults' realizations that their fates are in their hands, and they must decide to change their lives and become active if they are to enjoy their older years.
This narrative emphasizes the role of not only physical health and vitality, but also of mental and cognitive dimensions of health. It identifies a central role for family members in helping or impeding older adults' ability to achieve the "Vibrant Senior" ideal. Finally, this narrative tends to link older adults' physical well-being and activity to broader societal goals—often explaining how active older Americans contribute to national prosperity and collective economic well-being.
The "Independent Senior" narrative
The "Independent Senior" narrative focuses on autonomy as another dimension of successful aging. It elevates self-sufficiency as the marker of successful aging, and features discussions of transportation, social relationships, political engagement, financial independence, and the ability to make autonomous decisions about end-of-life care. Critically, it represents the need to ensure older adults can remain independent as a moral obligation, as well as a way to respect the wisdom of our aging population.
In telling this story, advocacy organizations often focus on the social and economic conditions that make independent living more or less likely to occur. They frame older adults' independence as a public issue, focusing on the financial requirements of independent living, framing independence not simply as a matter
of choice, but as the result of a host of factors, including access to supports and resources.
The "Demographic Crisis" narrative
The "Demographic Crisis" narrative describes the "graying of the American population" as an impending social crisis with wide-reaching consequences. This narrative employs statistics related to demographic change in order to convey a sense of urgency about aging issues—the assumption being, presumably, that urgency will motivate readers to act.
This narrative also points to steps individuals should take to weather the upcoming demographic "storm." For example, it urges policy makers to address housing issues that will result from an aging population. It is important to note, however, that this narrative holds older Americans and their families responsible for addressing their own housing needs.
The "Aging Workers" narrative
The "Aging Workers" narrative focuses on older adults' social and civic engagement. It describes how older adults' social relationships and skills can assist them in what is often perceived as a hostile labor market, how participation in the labor market fosters new kinds of social engagement, and how successful retirement allows older adults the ability to engage civically through volunteer opportunities.
The "Government as Problem" narrative
Advocacy organizations regularly point to governmental action as a causal factor in older Americans' financial challenges. In particular, these stories decry the impact of federal budget cuts on older Americans' financial stability.
Implications for Communicating About Aging and Older Adults
Of the 171 pieces analyzed, 49 percent lacked a dominant narrative. When people are confronted with an incomplete story, they fall back on their dominant understandings of how the issue works in order to "fill in the blanks." Given the understandings that are available to people on this topic (Lindland et al., 2015), this filling-in process is not likely to result in the story that advocates and experts wish to tell. The need to explicitly provide these missing pieces to tell more complete stories is the major recommendation to emerge from this research.
An additional communications challenge is the way advocacy organizations promote ideals of successful aging as primarily a matter of individual choice. This research confirms other analyses that demonstrate the absence of policy-level solutions in public discussions of successful aging (Rozanova, 2010). While government action is referenced in relation to causing problems associated with aging, it is rarely a factor in positive or idealized descriptions of aging, nor is government present in any of these narratives as a source of remediation. Moreover, the two narratives that present idealized notions of aging—the "Vibrant Senior" and "Independent Senior"—fail to mention why public action is necessary for these ideals to become lived experience for older Americans.
The biggest problem among the dominant patterns of public understanding identified in our research is the common assumption that individuals are exclusively responsible for how they age (Lindland et al., 2015). This idealized vision of aging is rarely achievable in the real world, according to experts (Lindland et al., 2015). When advocacy organizations fail to link successful aging to policies that enable older Americans to remain active and socially engaged, they reinforce the public's highly individualistic understandings of the aging process. The result is that people understand successful aging as the exclusive result of lifestyle choices, rather than recognizing the contribution of social supports, structures, and policies. Further, when the ideal is not achieved, Americans tend to assume that the reason for the failure lies in poor individual decision-making and lack of discipline and willpower.
Our interviews with experts in aging demonstrated that a central communications goal extant among those in the field is to focus on the opportunities associated with increased longevity, and the positive civic, social, and economic contributions of older Americans. Experts assert that realizing this potential requires adjustments to our public institutions, policies, and infrastructure. However, in their public-facing materials, advocacy organizations do not consistently explain the relationship between community, institutional and policy-level supports, and successful aging. This is more than a missed opportunity, as this omission gives space for the public's current understandings to engage and gain momentum.
Advocacy organizations also are likely to tell problem-oriented stories—frequently highlighting the maltreatment of older Americans by employing the "Throwaway Generation" narrative. This suggests that advocacy organizations are focused on problems associated with aging, and on how these problems are caused by an inadequate social safety net. While it is understandable that advocacy organizations want to call attention to the challenges older Americans experience, problem-focused stories that do not regularly include alternate visions and concrete steps to achieve those visions risk cuing the public's idea that aging is an inherently (and therefore immutably) negative process characterized by deterioration, senility, and dependence.
Conclusions and Recommendations
Advocacy organizations are important sources of public information about aging and older Americans. They have the power to shape or contest existing patterns of thinking. The following recommendations are designed to help communicators tell well-framed stories that have the potential to change the larger public discourse around this important topic.
Connect representations of successful aging to the implementation of effective social policies. Communicators should make direct linkages between problems, policies, and improved outcomes. Without this level of explanation, the public will equate aging outcomes with lifestyle choices, or will think about positive outcomes as "ideal," but impossible to achieve in the "real" world. The following is an example of this explanatory approach:
We know that older Americans' health and well-being improve when they have varied opportunities to stay socially engaged. But right now, far too many older Americans are isolated because they lack places to go and appropriate means of transportation. We need to ensure that all communities have opportunities for older adults to interact socially—such as community centers with programming for older Americans, farmers markets, and volunteer opportunities in our schools and libraries. And we need to make sure we give older adults reliable and safe ways to access these opportunities so that they can contribute to their communities.
Tell complete stories about the process of aging, the challenges faced by older adults, and the changes we can make to better support this group and their contributions. Communicators should tell complete and coherent stories, as they will have a better chance of disrupting the public's tendency to "fill in the blanks" with default—and often unproductive—understandings. A good strategy is to complete the checklist below when crafting public-facing materials.
Does this communication:
- Clearly describe the problem or issue that impacts older Americans?
- Explicitly state why addressing the issue is important for all Americans, and what is at stake if we fail to act?
- Explain how the problem works, including who or what is causing the problem?
- Describe the goal, outcome, or what the situation ideally would look like?
- Provide concrete, public solutions to address the issue, and explain how these actions result in improved outcomes for older Americans?
Use values to remind the public of our collective responsibility to older Americans, and the collective benefits that accrue to all when we provide them with supports. Advocacy organizations are using values to remind members of the public of their obligations to older generations—their moral duties to care for older adults, to prevent them from experiencing harm, and to protect their rights. Along with imparting a sense of our collective responsibility, advocates should consistently emphasize how we all benefit when we ensure that older adults can contribute to our country. Advocates occasionally invoke older adults' contributions to our collective prosperity, but they might also think about invoking values like Human Potential and Interdependence, which are iterated, as follows:
Only when we realize the talents and contributions of all Americans, no matter their age, can we move our country forward.
Because aging is a process we all experience, Americans of all ages do better when we make sure everyone has what they need to age successfully.
Provide clear, concrete, and public solutions when describing challenges related to aging. Audiences should always be presented with clear solutions to problems presented in communications. Communicators should also explain how a policy and solution would improve outcomes for older adults, thereby improving outcomes for society writ large. Solutions included in communications should match the scope of the problem presented. For example, if a problem is caused by failures in the system of social supports, the solution should identify how to put those systems in place, rather than focusing at the level of individual decision-making.
Avoid stories of the "Triumphant Senior," whose well-being is the product of prudent choices. The media is filled with stories about older adults who saved for retirement, paid attention to their health, and, as a result, have exciting and vibrant lives in their "golden years." Advocates should emphasize that individual behaviors happen in a larger social context. For example, stories about people who have successfully saved for retirement should include explanations of the social policies and supports that facilitated this outcome.
Avoid framing demographic change as an impending crisis. It is important that advocacy organizations strike the right balance between communicating the challenges associated with an aging population (the urgency of the situation), and a sense that this challenge is assailable (the efficacy of the solution). Stories that imply, or explicitly state, that we face an impending crisis are likely to overwhelm readers with the magnitude of the problem and ultimately lead to disengagement with the issue at hand— resulting in lower levels of issue and policy support.
Expanding the public discourse is a critical task for experts and advocates working to improve the well-being of older adults and to help our society better realize the civic, social, and economic contributions of this demographic group. To the extent that advocates can disseminate a new, productive story about the aging process and the role of older adults in American society—and make it a story that sticks—they can create new currents of public discourse that may gradually but powerfully shape our ability to consider how our public institutions, policies, and infrastructure can improve outcomes not only for older adults, but for our society as a whole.

Any established webmaster is aware of the importance of online reputation.
If you are new in this business and you got some complaints from your clients about Rip off Reports, maybe is time to learn some more about this matter so you could prevent those problems in the future
So, what is a Rip Off report? If a competitor of some clients of yours can't come up with better products, you can be sure they will try some alternative methods to attack your clients. The best one of them is to place some harmful negative reviews on some specialized websites. Ripoffreport is the most dangerous service of this kind, as they will post those negative comments on some affiliates websites also. This is how they will make sure those comments will have a major impact online, and the page of your client can go lower than those reviews on some Google searches. This is the point where you will require our services if you want your client to trust you in the future.
As we can't eliminate all those negative comments, the obvious direction is to make them almost invisible online. How can we do that? As they could become more visible than your client could, we could reverse the process. By placing some smart SEO articles and blog posts, we will get your client back on the front page of Google searches. At the same time, we will take care of all the negative reviews, making them to "shrink" on any kind of online search. You can be sure those negative comments will get to the 4th or 5th Google search results page, and nobody will ever get there. This is called reputation management, and it has become an important concept in the latest years. You can consider it as a guerilla war, but this is the reality in the online environment today.
This aspect might not be important for a simple person having a Facebook and a Twitter account. However, for people doing online businesses, the image must be perfect. We are focusing all our efforts on eliminating all the negative reviews about your business, and you can be sure we can do a great job about this matter. However, even if we can, don't ask us for denigrating services. Our terms and services are strict, and we care about our online image. We only want to create clean images and we will never offer negative content.
SEO branding could also be important for the online reputation of some influential individuals. As a pop star or a politician, you will never want the name of an ex girlfriend associated with your image. As you can't remove any comment fro her blog or webpage, just call us as we can shrink it in a matter of days. Usually those kinds of persons would think that the story is interesting and they won't have any problems in sharing it. You can be sure we can make it almost invisible, and this won't cost you some valuable money.

Ministerial Studies Department
The Ministerial Studies Department is a vital part of Union Bible College. We require more than sixty credit hours of Bible alone to graduate from our department. This helps to equip a student with the head knowledge needed to become a successful minister. Notwithstanding, we emphasize a spiritual agenda and settle for nothing less than a "know-so" experience of saving grace, and sanctification as a second definite work of grace in the heart of every believer. Each class is unique, with broad and far-reaching professor experience and the Godly example of our instructors. Our professors have a clear understanding of the Word of God, and with great enthusiasm infuse themselves into the life of our ministerial students. Our Greek, Theology, and Bible professors are among the best in their class!
We are located in the heart of the Bible belt and have many opportunities for our ministerial students to be involved in the cutting edge of the great harvest field. A large number of ethnic groups have moved into the area seeking employment, giving us a prime chance to engage in a range of ministries. Opportunities abound for the ministerial student that enrolls in Union Bible College to prepare for their life's calling into the ministry.
The Department of Ministerial Studies offers the following degrees:

A Gas sensor detects the presence of different gases in its proximity, and is used as a part of safety system to warn and sound alarm about gases that can have harmful and hazardous effects on humans, animals and environment. The gas detectors are used to detect combustible, toxic, potentially hazardous gases along with oxygen, CO2 and many other gases.
The techniques developed for multigas detection are basically categorized into two types:
- Non-interactive gas analysis
- Interactive gas analysis.
The non-interactive technique is further subcategorized into two types; non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) and dispersive infrared (DIR) technique.
The NDIR technique offer a number of advantages which include fast detection response, gas detection specificity, long term measurement stability, reduced maintenance cost and good sensitivity.
NDIR are widely used in industries like:
- Wood gasification
- Chemical industries
- Food & beverage industry
- Pharmaceutical
- Metal and steel production
- Oil rigs
- Mineral and coal mines
- Indoor complex and residential area.
Some of the major manufacturers of non-dispersive multigas sensors:
- Dexter research centre
- FLIR systems
- General Monitors
- VTI-Valtronics
- Crowcon Detection Instruments
- Oldham gas and many others
Awite (Germany) recently introduced in the market an in-house developed NDIR sensor "InfraFRED" and it can detect CH4, CO2, CO, NH3 and many other gases.
One important feature for NDIR sensors that has been overlooked is the intrinsic safety of operating NDIR gas sensors in an explosive environment. The infrared light source in an NDIR gas sensor could ignite a flammable gas inside the sensor. If the ignition escapes from the NDIR sensor, a wider explosion could occur. With technology improvement providing an intrinsically safe, portable NDIR sensor, it may open new application areas, such as underground tunnels and sewers, chemical plants and oil refineries.

Electronic Music Reviews
by noele lusano on Aug 05, 2010
Theres a sublime sort of restraint and finesse at work on Orsons Version002. The chilled, spare mood calls to mind the top-class minimalism employed by Peverelist, Ramadanman, and F, all worthy players in the dubtech scene. Simmering tribal rhythms enclose a nocturnal, meandering synthline and spectral washes of intricate white noise on Madness, while 808 Dub on the flip melds a mischievous groove with fierce wobble and atmospheric juke pads for good measure. Quality.
American Men Cool World EP
The Glaswegian outfits Cool World EP is a hyperactive handful of neon noise, retro electronics, and explosive, elastic math rock drum programming. Think Battles and Mercury Program with a pronounced penchant for Galaga and Pac-Man less mood and languor, more gloss and pixels. AM System could easily be an M83 lost track with its wistful vocals and rapturous synthesizers. Bass scene kingpins Ikonika, Machinedrum and Hudson Mohawke make an unexpected arrival at the tail end of Cool World with a clever array of remixes on hand: Ikonikas infectious rework of Claude Speed applies a well-paced 8-bit aesthetic, while HudMos redux of AM System is a brightly burning heartbreaker of epic scale.
Skream Outside the Box
Skream is Oliver Jones, South London producer and one of the founding fathers of dubstep. Given that latter fact, it comes as a bit of a surprise that this long player spends so much time in downbeat territory. In places, Outside The Box sounds more an homage to the futurist hip hop production of Flying Lotus or Mike Slott, with its decidedly retro synths and buoyant rhythms, while in others we hear strains of tuneful IDM a la Wisp or Mu-ziq (check the cheekily titled The Epic Last Song). Included are collaborations with indie rapper Murs and electro-pop diva of the moment La Roux. A mature effort from the prodigious young Skream.
Chemical Brothers Further
The Mancunian duo serves up another installment of big beats and psychedelic ambiance on Further. While theres no apparent regard for consistency here, the record does offer enough fodder to satisfy fans old and new. The siren and strobe-laden Swoon is sure to see time on a number of super club playlists, serving as an energetic respite from the first half of the albums relative lull. Another World feels like an off-beat marriage of the whole new-psychedelic chillwave sound of the moment and the ghosts of Boards of Canada past, while the seductive reverb and synth-drenched number that is K+D+B recalls the trip-hop days of Surrender (where is Hope Sandoval now?).
DJ Nate Hatas Our Motivation EP
Footwork: music for freebasing? Stuttering pop and hip hop samples pitch-bent beyond recognition, mutant two-step drum patterns, melodies plaintive and schizophrenic both. Born of ghetto house, footwork falls within the little-known genre of juke these manic, overactive quasi-melodies were constructed for a brand of urban dance (jukin or footworkin) thats done a good job keeping itself exclusive to a tight-knit Chicago scene. Recently signed to Mike Paradinas formative Planet Mu, DJ Nate brings us [ b]Hatas Our Motivation EP, a more aggressive span of footwork tracks sounding like a perverse amalgam of crunk, two-step, and instrumental UK grime. Intriguing stuff.

This summer, one of the coolest bands around was Rend Collective Experiment. From Camp Gray to Love Begins Here, teens sang along and fell for this band encouraging them to build the kingdom here. A number of the lyrics in the song Movements really seem to capture what we are seeing as a growing trend in the Diocese: more teens are devotedly, passionately loving the Lord and their Catholic faith.
I'm running fast and free to You
You are the movement and fight in me
I'm Running fast and free to You
You are my home
Where I wanna be
We know the sad, alarming statistics about our young adult faithful, most of all knowing that only about 10% of Catholic college students are attending Mass on a regular basis. However, those young people who are living out their faith, fighting for what they believe and choosing to live God are a real source of hope.
As our teens grow and transition into adulthood, they are faced with choices about what their futures hold, especially in regards to how they are going to live their Catholic identity. We do not have any magic recipes for how this is going to happen, though we do know the ingredients: giving our teens an opportunity to encounter Jesus in a life changing way, providing engaging Catechesis, allowing them to experience community life and helping them develop a life of prayer.
To help the priests of our Diocese understand just powerful these apostolates can be for our youth and their power to transform lives, we produced the following video to share with them at the annual priest assembly.
Enjoy. Share. Watch it again.
Let's help our youth run fast and free to the Lord!

Generating income through real estate investments may seem intuitive, but lots of folks have learned through rough experience that it is harder than it appears. Knowing how to navigate the market properly is going to do you well just like with any market. Though you may not have control of the market, you can control what you do within it.
Remember that reputation is key in this realm of business. Always keep your word, and be honest with clients. This will ensure you maintain a reputation for having integrity, which will serve you well over your investment career.
Be sure that you spend a long while dealing with the business and also learning about how it works. You might have to reduce activities that could cost you later. To become a better investor, it requires total dedication each day.
Find a market you enjoy. You can successful invest if you focus on that market segment. Whether you are flipping houses, working with starters or dealing with properties with low down payments, stick to what you know for success.
For those looking towards putting their money into real estate, try to remember that the location is top priority. Property condition must also be considered. Properties that are in terrible areas will always be bad investments. As you evaluate properties, always look at the area and the potential of the properties.
Make sure you choose areas that have a buzz around them, especially if you can tell that early on. This is something that's important because it will help the resale value of your purchase. Also, try to look for properties that can be easily maintained.
When you negotiate, do more listening and less talking. You will be surprised at how often someone will do all the work for you just by letting them speak. Listening will also help you determine what approach to take before you even open your mouth.
Join an online investor group or follow forums and blogs from highly successful investors in real estate. This helps you stay privy to valuable information concerning the real estate market. You could even talk to someone in a more personal atmosphere.
You should have a handyman when you buy a real estate investment property. This will help you to fix any issues that come up during your ownership. A great handyman is helpful in emergencies that could occur after hours.
Avoid digging around that property and doing home improvement until a person is contacted that can let you know if any lines are buried beneath the property. There are certain areas in which digging is against the law. Also, you would not want to cause property damage.
Make sure you can recoup the money you invested in a property, plus an additional profit. If you are only able to sell your property for as much as you spent on it, you have put in a lot of effort for no profit. Be sure you make changes so the property can be renovated, and be sure it's listed at a price higher than what was paid for it.
Local sources are something you will want to take advantage of in real estate. Chances are you are going to find some great real estate for investment purposes in your area, and you know this area best. This is definitely a place to get a good start.
If you're thinking about getting into real estate rentals, you're going to need a capable property manager. Since the rent money will pay the mortgage, you have to be sure that they are going to pay. If that does not happen, you may lose the income that you need to help pay your bills.
If you are thinking about investing in several properties, try to make sure that they are near each other. This will help you by reducing your time and gas expenses as you travel between the different properties. It can also help you become an authority when it comes to the market in that particular area.
You probably want to get started because the tips you read are helpful. Never launch into things if you are not ready, and make sure all moves are thoroughly contemplated in advance. Following the advice that has been presented is going to find you reaching towards success in real estate investing.

OSNMR :: OtherSteve's Nintendo Music Radio
CLICK HERE TO LISTEN LIVE! (Requires Winamp/VLC/Realplayer etc. on PC or iTunes on Mac)
Like it? Digg it, then discuss it!
(7/21) - Some odd stream-related issues have been occurring. I am looking into the issue to try and pinpoint a source of the problem.
In other news... THE DONATE BUTTON NOW WORKS AGAIN! ;-)
Thanks to everyone who has donated; you're the reason this non-profit project still exists. :)
Other quick updates:
7/20 - Hundreds of new songs are still being placed into rotation each week. Beyond that, I have added another tier of quality scoring to provide better balance to the rotation formula. Over the coming weeks I will be entertaining other ideas as well to weed out the longer high-quality songs and reduce their rotation in spite of their high-quality nature. At this point, this project truly has become rather complex in its composition.
Sure, this site's ugly and bare. But the whole point of it is to provide you with some centralized location for my newest endeavor, an internet radio station dedicated solely to music from games (mostly) on Nintendo's systems (but not officially supported or promoted by Nintendo or any game company). Well, and occasionally some other stuff thrown in for good measure.
Who are you?
I'm OtherSteve (a.k.a., Steve Schardein), Managing Editor at the relatively new DigitalChumps.com, though this project is entirely unaffiliated. I'm a longtime gamer and active member of the IGN Boards community, which also happens to be where this whole idea was born, as a product of requests from users interested in my game music collection.
What makes OSNMR different?
What's the difference between this and other game music stations? Well, for starters, I've got a ton of music, plenty of which I actually own (wherever possible). The rest of it is out of print and/or not made available to the US at all (and a lot of what I own fits those categories as well). I am a huge supporter and a bit of a collector, and for over a decade I've been amassing videogame music. But that isn't all I've been doing; I've also been scoring and sorting the music by quality, on the way to work and otherwise when I have a bit of spare time to dedicate to the project. Everything is tiered, and I've tried to be as objective as possible in my choices. The playlist has been formulated so that the better songs play more often, and some of the obscure stuff only appears once in a blue moon. This should make it fun to listen to; it isn't just a huge amalgamation of game music--it's actually sorted.
Please also keep in mind that as of right now, while there is a lot of music in circulation (many thousands of songs), this concept is still being developed. It is going to grow by the hundreds each week, and I will also be tweaking the song rotations... so it will remain fresh.
Are you doing this to make money?
No. Please note that this is a nonprofit operation. I am not looking to make money from this. All donations go right back into the operation of the station.
Similarly, if you are the owner of a song that you heard on the station and you don't want your music being played, simply drop me a line and I'll remove it for you. This is meant to be a celebration of gaming and game music, as well as the companies that provide it, and thus I'm not seeking to become rich off of someone else's work. My sole motivation in running this service is to hopefully expose more Americans to the beauty and oft-overlooked quality of videogame music; it is my intention that hopefully one day our public will be as interested in purchasing and enjoying game music as the Japanese have been for decades.
Having said that, this is also quite expensive. I've already ponied up the cash for the startup and I am putting in all the requisite time to keep things growing. If you'd like to donate a few bucks ($1, 5, 10, whatever--I appreciate any help), it'd be of enormous help. I want to keep this thing going as long as I possibly can, but I can already tell it's not going to be as cheap as I initially thought. That's the beauty of the internet though: there's strength in numbers, and small donations from people who love the idea will keep things running!
If you enjoy what you hear and you'd like to support the cause, click the button below to offer some monetary relief. And Thank You!
Brought to you by OtherSteve. Questions? Comments? Though it's completely unaffiliated with the project, I managed to snag some forum space where I write at DigitalChumps.com. I'd love to hear your thoughts there.
Can you provide a list of music that you play?
No lists will be provided; I feel it's more fun if people discover stuff like that for themselves. With the current rotation schedule, you'd have to listen well in excess of a solid, uninterrupted two weeks to hear most of the songs. How's that for a library? With your donations, this will only continue to grow.

Here's a look at some of the stocks the Yahoo Finance team will be watching for you today.
Equifax (EFX) CEO and chairman Richard Smith is retiring following the massive data breach that affected the personal information of 143 million people. Smith was at the helm of the credit reporting agency for 12 years. Paulino do Rego Barros, Jr., president of company's Asia Pacific region, has been appointed interim CEO.
Darden Restaurants (DRI) shares were plunging in early trading after the owner of Olive Garden and other restaurant chains delivered weaker-than-expected same-store sales growth for last quarter. However, earnings matched expectations and revenue beat analysts' estimates.
Nvidia (NVDA) shares are moving higher in early trading. The company announced it will supply its AI hardware to major tech giants, including Huawei and Lenovo. Nvidia's CEO called AI "the most important technology development of our time." The company also unveiled other products and partnerships that assist with self-driving cars, robots and cloud computing.
Alibaba (BABA) shares were in focus on Tuesday. The chinese e-commerce giant is paying just over $800 million for a majority stake in the unprofitable logistics firm Cainiao. Baba will own 51% of the company and a fourth board seat in the deal. It will also pour $15 billion into Cainiao over the next five years to expand its shipping network. Alibaba wants to fulfill orders on mainland China within 24 hours and within 72 hours globally.
The US government isn't the only country trying to get ahold of Facebook's (FB) data. Russia's communications agency says it will block Facebook next year if the social network doesn't store its data locally. Russian law requires foreign companies to store data in Russia, but critics of the law say the stored information could be exposed to Russian intelligence agencies.
