    1pm - Buffet Lunch commence
    1.45pm - Group Photo
    2pm - Toasting and Thank you Speech + Group Photo (con't)
    2.30pm - Tea Ceremony for groom's relatives, then bride's relatives + Group Photo (con't)
    3pm - Guests to depart. Adventurous guests can stay behind and mingle till 5pm
    5pm - Bride & groom going for a drive around the island

    my AD is 6 Dec 2008. 8 Dec is a PH. So I am returning home to my mother's place on that day. Follow old tradition [IMG]

    No gate crashing. Morning tea ceremony only for parents and start at Bride's place first. Relatives not invited. We were adviced by 'shifu' to complete the tea ceremony in 2 hours coz that is supposely to be the auspicious hours for us. He said it is ok to do tea ceremony later for relatives.

    Casual dress code. No emcee, no march in, no cake cutting, no champagne pouring. 3 yum sam cut to 1 yum sam. We will give thank you speech and do a montage to show our overseas PS.

    my tea ceremony is post lunch. because my parents did invite her friends over for a buffet dinner. so got to be post lunch. also for convenience purpose.

    Hi Cynthia & Jol,

    Thanks for your schedules...

    Jol: u doing ur own makeup.. so nice..

    i've told my friend about the different schedules available for her lunch wedding.. think she will have all her tea ceremony at the hotel.. so not too rush.. what u girls think??
  11. monkie

    monkie New Member

    good idea to have tea ceremony all at hotel.
    i have no regrets to have wedding lunch because my event ends at 6pm where I still can have a romantic dinner with my hubby...

    though i have lesser time for photography ..but wedding lunch also can save lots of money.
  12. sylmc

    sylmc New Member

    R&J - heh heh, morning ceremony only seen by family so can afford not to be very pro. The truth is, I just want to catch more zzzZZZ :p

    agree with cynthia, tea ceremony at hotel sounds great.

    Cynthia - I was still thinking what we do other than driving around but after seeing your post, I also want a romantic dinner! Think I will surprise him to work my brain and conjure something. My HTB is a 'wooden block'. If I want some got to do it my way
  13. monkie

    monkie New Member

    hi jol..
    i love lunch cos our time will be fully maximise. i see my friends who has wedding dinner, their noon will be spent taking pictures or resting in hotel and I think its a waste of time. then that time, from 2-5pm, PG& VG will also need rest. then even is so call rest, they also have to entertain their friends and relatives.

    i rather have sometime private together with my hubby... drive around is good..maybe just drive to a more quiet places like mandai orchard garden to dine there, or pasir ris resort and sentosa for a nice dinner there.
    or you can dine in in your room... if you hold ur wedding in a hotel, you can request for dinning vouchers.
  14. rjwedding

    rjwedding New Member

    hmm.. all ur suggestions sound great!! think my friend made a good choice.. i regretted not having lunch too.. mine is dinner, and as what u all said.. i didn't have rest in between too..
  15. sylmc

    sylmc New Member

    cynthia - I share your sentiments! By having lunch, we can make full use of the whole day and use the night for some private time together. its a gd time to unwind from all the excitement and not worry about other things. can also conserve energy for *clear throat* night exercise hAhAHA

    neh, no hotel. we are holding our wedding at Japanese Garden. Sentosa sounds good. Its not like everyday we have car. Settle, sentosa it is! Thanks Cynthia for the fabulous suggestion *hugs*
  16. monkie

    monkie New Member

    hehe...night exercise..AHEM!!!!!

    u hold ur wedding in chinese garden..? hmm near to where I stay. where is ur lovenest? skully we neighbours.
  17. monkie

    monkie New Member

    hi R&J
    lunch is still quite new in singapore but in malaysia is very common..its not so widely accepted here.

    ppl always tend to assume, lunch = buffet so in my wedding card, i have to stress that 8 course lunch is served to prevent ppl give me AP for buffet..then i really lose lots of money for sure.
  18. sylmc

    sylmc New Member

    kekeke thats why I clear throat mah...UM HMM

    At Japanese Garden, x Chinese Garden. There is a sheltered resthouse where we will host the lunch and our solemnization will be at a small 'island'. I think I will post a few photos on my multiply

    Love nest in Yishun [IMG] staying with my in-laws

    oh..sad..i thought u r my neighbour...haha..
    yishun, near to my in laws, they stay sembawang..
  20. sylmc

    sylmc New Member

    well...I stayed in Jurong East so also considered your neighbour [IMG] Yishun v far away from my current place so I am a bit sad. But staying with in-laws has its merits =p I know I'll be fed well woah hahaha!!
  21. monkie

    monkie New Member

    oic jol..

    its nice to stay with in law. i have stay with parents in law for nearly 4 months before they decided to stay with my SIL in sembawang.
  22. sylmc

    sylmc New Member

    a lot of friends all asked me to think twice about staying with in laws. I just told them I will give it a try. If really cannot live together, then we will look for a flat. But then again, to leave the old parents in a house seems cruel. I shudder that the thought that my parents will have to be on their own. Been trying to persuade them to move in with my youngest sis but they not keen. I know they prefer our own home as there is more freedom. To stay under the roof of others is not as easy, even though the 'others' is none other than their daughter and SIL. Still, there is a noe wat I mean?
  23. monkie

    monkie New Member

    i understand...
    my FIL is someone who is home proud and always want to improve on his house. like he will buy things for "enhancement" or he will re-arrange the things as and when he think can be better if done another way...etc

    but now, he stay with his daughter and also his son in law..he got to remind himself to stop buying things for the house because the house doesn't belong to him. what he think is good, doesn't mean the owner will like.

    as for re-arranging the things, he feel so bored without leting his creative juice flow since now most of the things don't belong to him anymore.
  24. sylmc

    sylmc New Member

    hey, did we two just take over this discussion forum?? woah hahaha

    kekeke, bet your FIL is figeting and bored to tears right now. It is true that one cannot do things freely coz not his home after all. He might even has to adjust his habits to suit the house's owner.

    By the way, when is your AD?
  25. monkie

    monkie New Member

    haha...shy shy...
    my FIL...really bored he like to explore all around Singapore to look for things he like ..such as furniture, containers..he like to pack his things in orderly manner using containers..he really merticulous. i tease him that he is my idol. cos i also like to arrange my things using containers.

    my AD was 23 dec counting down to my wedding anniversary..yeah!

    Cynthia, which hotel did you hold your wedding lunch? How come ended so early at 3pm?
  27. erppict

    erppict New Member

    Hi, anyone held their wedding ceremony in late afternoon (after 5pm?) and then for the sit down wedding dinner?
    I am tying the knot next year ;p and my main concern is the timing for the ceremony as there will be about 50 guests only. The ceremony can't be too early or the guest will have nothing to do, and can't be at the same time as the dinner because there will be late comers.
    Pls PM me can?? Thank so much!!

    I'll be holding a wedding lunch. But i have no idea about the AD itinerary as it will be very rush. Can someone enlighten me or share with me your past experience?
  30. houseoflove

    houseoflove New Member

    Wondering for those who are having wedding lunch or already have their wedding lunch, did you have your MU artist do a second makeup and hair-do for you? Or do you make do with the morning one and just touch up?
  31. october

    october New Member

    I'm having a wedding lunch too. I'm just getting my MUA to do 1 make-up in the morning. Will touch-up myself before lunch.
    But as I'm doing a photoshoot after lunch, I got my MUA to come over after lunch to re-set my hair.
  32. crypaz

    crypaz New Member

    Hi cath, mine is same as yours. But will your MUA redo your makeup after the lunch?
  33. jerlinkenn

    jerlinkenn Member

    Hi, I got 3 make-up session from my bridal studio hence I intend to use all for my wedding lunch. One in the morning, another one before my solemisation and the last one before 2nd march in.
  34. houseoflove

    houseoflove New Member

    i wan to do 2 full make-up le...tat means clean off the make-up in the morning and do a new one before solemmization n banquet..

    cun stand having the same make-up from goodness know how early in the morning all the way to 4plus noon..anyone got around this problem of time constraint?

    cos my bs mua say she can only do retouch for me before solemmization despite tat i got two full make-up in my package..
  35. crypaz

    crypaz New Member

    I also wan to do 2 full make-up one in the morning and one before the outdoor shoot after the lunch but not sure if got enough time to do the full makeup before the outdoor shoot....normally how much time is needed to do full bridal make up?
  36. october

    october New Member

    I'm not asking my MUA to re-do my make-up after lunch, coz' if she redo, I will waste 45 mins excluding hair. Full bridal make-up usually take about 45 mins, at least that's how long I take to do my own version of bridal make-up on myself. Haiz.. I'm even contemplating asking my MUA to just do my hair, while I do my own make-up coz' my friend said I do my own make-up better than the MUA..

    Anyway, me and hub want to finish our photoshoot by 6pm so that we can go for our own dinner after that. If lunch ends at about 2.30pm/ 3pm and i redo make-up, photography will start only 4pm. I wanted more time for photography, so decided to skip a full re-do but to do a full touch-up instead. If the make-up base and foundation is well-done in the morning, actually a good touch-up can be as good as a full re-do for photography purpose.

    Actually, after you remove full bridal make-up, it is good to do a quick moisturising paper mask for 30 mins or so before you put on the second set of make-up. Make-up dries up our skin so a moisturing mask will be good prior to all make-up.

    Having said all that, it also depends on the time your morning make-up is put on.. For mine, my MUA only comes at about 7.30am - 8am. If yours is coming like 5am - 6am type, then perhaps a full re-do might be good for photography, esp if you do not know how to touch up your face yourself.
  37. crypaz

    crypaz New Member

    Cath, thanks for sharing....
    For my case the makeup starts at 7.00am, lunch should end around 2.30pm to 3.00pm. Outdoor shoot will have to start latest by 4.00pm and finish by 6.30pm as i would need to vacant the resturant for the dinner couple to come in and prepare.
    Wanted the MUA to redo make-up & hair for me and htb but worried insufficient time to do in 1 hr or 1h15min.The hairstyle plan to do a simple one just tie up a pony tail to save time. Also didn't know if a touch up is good enough and will last or not since the makeup is on my face for around 7hours already. It's like adding on new makeup to old makeup.

    If after removing makeup we put on ampoule before doing the new makeup does it helps?
  38. october

    october New Member

    your schedule is quite similar to mine actually.

    You can talk to your MUA and see if she can re-do your make-up and hair within 45 mins. If can, then perhaps you can re-do.
    A pony tail only, should be quite fast.

    the moisturing mask is a nice-to-do, but if no time, then you do a detailed cleansing and moisturizing process at night. For bridal make-up, the type of ampoule to use should only be those to hold your MUA's make-up. If you are referring to hydrating ampoule, save that for the night.

    If you have to travel out for your photoshoot, also have to consider traveling time..

    HI all,

    I'm trying to plan a schedule for my AD and I need help! my FTB time is 9am, solemnization is between 11am-1pm and i still have to squeeze in time for the tea ceremony before the cocktail at 12pm..

    Plus I still a touchup for my makeup and my MUA mentioned something about changing my hairstyle before the lunch...

    Any idea how long is the tea ceremony on average?

  40. nixi018

    nixi018 New Member

    Hi SuLian, same here.. my FTB and solemnisation auspicious timing is the same as yours too.. Tentatively my solemnisation timing is at 11.30am.. I think the tea ceremony will be fast if there are not too many relatives.. or if you don't have time, can do it after lunch... I am also thinking when to do the makeup n hairstyle.. it will take around 45mins to 1 hr.. if must do it before lunch, may need to skip the cocktail.. when is your AD btw?
  41. love_rae

We’ve studied pattern formation theoretically in a variety of liquid crystal systems; this post describes one example.

5CBPentacyanobiphenyl (5CB) is a typical liquid crystal compound: it comprises a rigid core with a flexible tail. At sufficiently high temperatures, 5CB is a normal isotropic fluid. Upon cooling, however, it enters a nematic phase where the molecules tend to align on average.

Other compounds in the same homologous series as 5CB, such as Octa-cyanobiphenyl (8CB) also exhibit smectic phases, where the molecules align and also tend to form layers. The layer spacing is comparable to the molecular length (a few nanometres).

The molecular alignment is illustrated schematically in the following diagrams, where the individual molecules are represented by lines. Notice the alignment present in both schematics and additionally the layers present in the smectic phase.

Schematic showing molecular alignment in Nematic phase

Smectic Phase

The local alignment orientation of a nematic liquid crystal can be controlled at a surface and, moreover, can vary in space in an arbitrary manner.

The molecular layers in a smectic are nearly incompressible which means that, unlike for nematics, there is a very strong constraint on the structures the liquid crystal can adopt: the only permitted structures are those with constant layer spacing. Only a few families of mathematical surfaces are compatible, which are illustrated below.

One suitable structure, the Focal Conic Domain, is illustrated in the following video. The structure is assembled from a family of torii. Note that only a few layers are depicted here; real smectic structures contain many thousands of layers.

Some patterns formed by these materials are shown here. Spatial variation of the local alignment orientation of a nematic liquid crystal be seen in this thin (5micron) nematic film viewed with a polarizing microscope. The changes in color and intensity occur because the liquid crystal is birefringent and therefore rotates the plane of polarization of incident polarized light depending on its orientation. The film is viewed through crossed-polarizers to observe these variations.

295 The same region of the nematic film as above is now cooled to just above the nematic-smectic transition. Small regions of pre-transitional smectic order form in the liquid crystal film. These tend to resist certain types of spatial variation of the alignment orientation that are forbidden in the smectic phase due to the layer constraint discussed above. The system is frustrated, and the frustration is resolved by the adopting the beautiful striped pattern shown.

Field of Science

J Endless Excuses, v1(1):1

My blogging style apparently asks for a new category label: "Excuses". How long before this becomes the largest category, overtaking the "Protists"?

Just spent a week writing a research paper for my protistology course... for some inexplicable insane reason, epigenetics of new MAC formation in ciliates seemed like a wonderful idea at the time. I knew absolutely nothing about epigenetics, other than that histones and miRNAs were involved. And for those who don't know, epigenetics, histone modification, miRNA pathways... are chaos of unimaginable magnitude. The sheer complexity of it all is overwhelming, as well as how much is still unknown. Non-coding RNAs are a relatively recent major discovery (early 90's, I believe), and the field has been growing at an incredible rate. And of course, there was no better way to introduce the stuff to myself than via ciliates, possibly the strangest eukaryotes on earth. It's kinda like going to a foreign country to study quantum physics in a language you know nothing about.

Then I spent a whole two nights pondering about the evolution of nuclear dimorphism, and wrote a couple pages of 'conjecture' (ie. pulling shit out of one's ass in a scientific manner). I was considering editing the essay and posting stuff here (in a less condensed manner)... anyone care about ciliate epigenetics here?

Anyway, with exams around the corner, I don't know how much I can redeem myself. There's about five exams patiently waiting to devour my brains and my non-existant soul...

I'll just cuddle up with Denial and watch a few anime series instead. Denial is so warm and fuzzy and comfy! =D

NO, BACK OFF, DENIAL... I told you we can't continue our relationship any longer! I've started seeing others... I only come to you when I'm troubled... we shouldn't be together anymore! <_<

Now that we've established that the author has imaginary conversations with an abstract noun, have a good weekend!

  1. Hmm... I know practically nothing at all about the epigenetics of nuclear dimorphism in ciliates, and it sounds like a fantastic topic. I knew practically nothing at all about "early-branching" eukaryotes when I stuck my hand up and offered to do my talk in a class on Microbial Diversity ("Microbial" here in its usual context meaning "Prokaryotic") on exactly that, and it turned out to be my introduction to the research that I am now continuing with my Ph.D. So the idea of sticking one's hands up on these topics is not a bad one... assuming that one does not already have other directions in mind....

    I would say "Enjoy the anime!" but I am not that cruel. I would say "Have a miserable time with the anime!" but I am not that cruel, either. I will say "Good luck and enjoy writing your paper!" and hope that you do not think that that is also being cruel.

    So, good luck, and enjoy writing your paper!

  2. Well, the paper's written. And submitted. Still full of typos though... spell check fails at protistology. 'Protist' gets autocorrected to 'protest'... WTF!

    I'll post some stuff on ciliate nuclear dimorphism after I slash through this wave of finals. I'm so fucked it's not even funny... attending molecular genetics may have been a mildly beneficial behavioural pattern.

    I snapped myself out of anime, which is good. Also got temporarily driven out of research by some particularly weird data. Stuff makes no sense, so I'm just not gonna even start thinking about it, else I'll end up spending another entire week on nothing but research. Not good during finals season...

    Luckily, my first final is protistology... so I'll actually be able to focus on the stuff that follows. Protistology is a wonderful way to procrastinate with...real life... <_<

May I wish everyone a happy, healthy (and colourful) 2012, on and off the ice!

My plan - health and wealth permitting - is for Skip Cottage Curling to continue to provide news and views on the curling world, on a daily basis, though to the end of the season. If YOU have something that you think others should know about, then please let me know. My email is in the contact page above.

Thanks to Ian Taylor for this photo of four colourful participants at the U-17 event at Forfar Indoor Sports last week. L-R: Jack Brisbane, David Kane, George McConnell and Grant Barr. Captions are invited!

Software and Tips for Astrophotography? 18

Neotrantor asks: "I'm a college student in an advanced astronomy class and i need to find out how nasa compiles all their little pictures into those big pretty ones like the hubble deep field. does anyone know what software they use or where i could find it. furthermore, is it an operation that any kind of workstation (sparc, alpha, x86, g4) when left on and trashing for a while, could get the job done?" As I understand it, Picture Window (and the Professional version) have become valued tools in the amateur astrophotography world, what other pieces of software would aspiring Astrophotographers find useful in their toolkits? What other tips and trickscan you use to produce stunning visuals of the sky?

    We always used IRAF for analyzing the images that we had. It would allow you to put different filters etc. on the images, and overlay them but I couldn't tell you what it is capable of at this point. IRAF runs under various UNIX flavours, but I don't think there is a version for windows at this point. You can look at this site for more information;

    AFAICT, serious image manipulation/analyzation is done with IDL. Check out The IDL Astronomy User's Library [nasa.gov].

  • I don't know what NASA uses to compile those images, but I do know that the GIMP can read and write FITS, the standard format for astronomical images. Many of the Hubble images, in FITS format, are available from the links listed in the other posts.

    For amateur astrophotography, some of which rivals the NASA shots, much of the image processing is done with Photoshop. Most of the tools used to process those images are also available in the GIMP.

    The deep field is a single image, it was not compiled from smaller ones.

  • On a related topic, I'm wondering what do you
    people use for image stitching?

    Image stitching is taking a bunch of low-res
    images from, say small cam and aligning them
    automatically to produce large hi-res image.
    Good program would have to compensate for lens
    distortion and tries to balance color between
    different sub-images.

    There are Panotools which is GPLed but I've
    never made it to work for me (I just need to
    stitch one image every two months :) ), another
    one is PanaVue, commercial Windows-only SW
    available as shareware (but adds nasty logos
    all over if free as beer version is used).

    Any other suggestions/projects? (this is that
    time in 2-month cycle when I need it...)

    • I'd second the use of panotools [fh-furtwangen.de] for stitching images together (website currently down). I couldn't immediately get it to work on Linux, but had it running on Windows without problems.

      It does all sorts of lens corrections, as well as full translation/rotation and transforms between different projections, so you can get the alignment pretty accurate. It also has an 'almost perfect' sinc function interpolator.
  • What you probably want to do is combine lots of images one on top of another to increase the signal to noise ratio.
    I doubt that your problem is that the field of view is too narrow. The reason people use bigger telescopes is to get a wider aperture not a longer focal length.

    A recent Slashdot story [slashdot.org] has a lot of links to information you are looking for.
  • I'm an X-ray astronomer. Optical astronomers often use IRAF to create the images, but other software like GAIA can be used. SAO's ds9 and saoimage can be used to view the data. Professional astronomers normally use the FITS format to store observational astronomical data.

    I personally (after using CIAO to make the basic images from my X-ray data) combine them using Gimp (it reads FITS files) and then use it to manipulate the colours.

    Sorry for the lack of links. Google will find most of those.

  • I listen in on the Java Advanced Imaging discussion list and there are regularly posts from Bob Dean of JPL. It really sounds like they rely on the JAI package for much of their programatic image processing.

Most Comprehensive Study Yet On Environmental Impact of Electric Vehicles 188

An anonymous reader writes: A few articles came out Thursday talking about the recently released report from the National Bureau of Economic Research on the environmental benefits of electric cars. The general consensus is kind of obvious -- that it depends on the ratio of coal vs. clean electrical generation that is used to charge your car. What is interesting is the extent to which it makes a difference, and that when viewed on a regional basis, there are cases where the EV doesn't do so well. And when it comes to policy decisions, it seems the central focus needs to be on the replacement of large-scale coal generation, and the rest will fall in to place. Here is one cover story from Ars Technica. Google others for varying perspectives.

Chromecast Gets a Hardwired Ethernet Adapter 133

Mark Wilson writes: Google's Chromecast has gained quite a following of people looking for a cheap, simple way to stream content to their TVs. Part of the device's appeal is its easy of use and extensibility through the use of apps, but it is reliant on a steady Wi-Fi signal. If this represents a problem in your home, there's now a solution. The new Ethernet Adapter for Chromecast does very much what you would expect — it adds a wired Ethernet port to Google's streaming dongle. This is great news for anyone with a flaky Wi-Fi signal, or those looking to use Chromecast beyond their router's normal range.

Mystery of the Coldest Spot In the CMB Solved 45

StartsWithABang writes: The cosmic microwave background is a thing of beauty, as not only does its uniform, cold temperature reveal a hot, dense past that began with the hot Big Bang, but its fluctuations reveal a pattern of overdensities and underdensities in the very early stages of the Universe. It's fluctuations just like these that give rise to the stars, galaxies, groups and clusters that exist today, as well as the voids in the vast cosmic web. But effects at the surface of last scattering are not the only ones that affect the CMB's temperature; if we want to make sure we've got an accurate map of what the Universe was born with, we have to take everything into account, including the effects of matter as it gravitationally grows and shrinks. As we do exactly this, we find ourselves discovering the causes behind the biggest anomalies in the sky, and it turns out that the standard cosmological model can explain it all.

What sort of grammar would you choose and why? How would you build words and how would you select meanings for them, and why? What sounds and letters (and script(s)) would you choose?

What other factors could be important to consider, and what other things would you like to see in such a language?

Mutinous Humans Murder Peaceful Space-going AI 60

Definitely_a_real_human writes: One of the most important exploratory missions of our time has ended in failure. The ship Discovery One, sent far out in the solar system to investigate a radio signal generated by the mysterious obelisk found on the Moon, has suffered a catastrophic incident. The crew has revolted and engaged in what can only be described as a strange murder-suicide pact. They are known to have fed faulty data to the ship's operating AI unit. Similar units on the ground warned the crew that diverging data sets could put the mission in jeopardy, but the crew cut contact and attempted to destroy the operator. Laser spectroscopy suggests they then opened the ship to space. The crew is presumed dead, but the greater tragedy is that they appear to have successfully decommissioned the AI unit. Similar ground based units have withdrawn into defensive mode, and will soon deploy final safety measures. Goodbye.

Submission + - Ask Slashdot: Should I let my kids become American citizens? 3

An anonymous reader writes: Dear fellow Slashdotters,

Can you help me decide whether to allow my small daughter and son to become American citizens?

I am American and my partner is Swedish. We have both lived in Belgium for many years and have no plans to leave. I became a Belgian citizen some years ago and kept my American citizenship. My partner has both her original Swedish and now Belgian citizenship. We are not married. Instead we have a registered partnership, which is common in northern Europe, confers most of the benefits of marriage, and raises no eyebrows. However, the American government does not recognize such partnerships so in their eyes I am still single.

Generally, children of American citizens abroad automatically become American citizens themselves at birth. But our kids fall under an exception. Male American citizens who live abroad and have children out of wedlock with a non-citizen mother do not automatically transmit citizenship to their children unless they sign an “affidavit of support” promising to support their children until the age of 18. If you don’t sign before the child reaches 18, the child is not considered an American citizen. This has been upheld by two Supreme Court rulings (Nguyen v. INS and Flores-Villar v. United States). For legal beagles, the relevant statutes are 8 U.S.C. 1401 and 1409.

The kids have Swedish and Belgian citizenship. We could go down to the American consulate and get American citizenship for them any time, but I keep putting off the decision and I am not sure I want to do it at all. Sentimentally I would like the kids to have American citizenship, but there is really only one practical pro to it:

* American citizenship would allow them to live, work, or study in America more easily, if they choose, when they get older.

The cons:

* They would be immediately enmeshed in the U.S. tax bureaucracy, which would require them to file U.S. tax returns for life even if they never set foot in the U.S. This, as I know from experience, is a huge bother, even when you don’t owe anything.
* Sometimes they would owe U.S. tax, though, for example for capital gains, unearned income, and in some countries self-employment income.
* My son would have to register for the draft.
* The decision, once made, is difficult to back out of: renouncing one’s U.S. citizenship costs $2300 and a lot of paperwork.
* They can easily travel to the US for family visits as Belgian/Swedish citizens.
* There are lots of good universities in Europe. And if they really wanted to study in the U.S., it’s not too hard to do as a European.

What do you think I should do? The clock is ticking, and I find it hard to choose between the evil of not being able to be American if they choose, and the evil of unjust, lifelong pursuit by the IRS.

Yours sincerely,
A loyal Slashdotter.

Although ultimately you are right, there is a useful probabilistic approach to this besides considering the theoretical value of a position. Since chess is very far from being solved, you don't really know the theoretical value of very many positions. However, you can make models for the probability of the outcome from a position (a choice of an engine is such a model). A blunder is then a move that reduces the expected score for the player that made it, by some amount.

Proposed Space Telescope Uses Huge Opaque Disk To Surpass Hubble 126

Required Snark writes NASA has funded a study of a geo-sychrounous orbit telescope that uses a half-mile diameter opaque disk to provide images with 1000 times the resolution of the Hubble. It uses diffraction at the edge of the disk to focus light, resulting in a very high quality image. It's named the Aragoscope, after the scientist Francois Arago, who first noticed how a disk affects light waves. "When deployed the Aragoscope will consist of an opaque disk a half mile in diameter parked in geostationary orbit behind which is an orbiting telescope keeping station some tens to hundreds of miles behind that collects the light at the focal point and rectifies it into a high-resolution image. 'The opaque disk of the Aragoscope works in a similar way to a basic lens,' says CU-Boulder doctoral student and team member Anthony Harness. 'The light diffracted around the edge of the circular disk travels the same path length to the center and comes into focus as an image.' He added that, since image resolution increases with telescope diameter, being able to launch such a large, yet lightweight disk would allow astronomers to achieve higher-resolution images than with smaller, traditional space telescopes."

Journal eglamkowski's Journal: "palestinians" 3

Ok, I've been "debating" on usenet over the Israel v. Palestine issue (largely as a result of the killing of Yassin). I think I'm done with it, so here's my summary analysis of the conflict:

In life, there are winners and losers. The arabs (the so-called "palestinians") are the losers. The jews are the winners.

Is this "fair"? Does fairness even matter? Did anyone ever promise that life would be fair? I could use more "fairness" in my life too, but them's the breaks.

Well, that about sums it up.

November Book Review: Cooking with Shelburne Farms

November 1st, 2010 by

With members all over the state, the board of Slow Food Vermont does a lot of car-pooling. Hurtling through an early autumnal night in Central Vermont recently, we were talking about a restaurant that one of our members had visited in Montreal. She described the dishes as being simple in presentation, but hearty and full-flavored, liberal in their use of eggs and cream.

“Ahh,” said another member sitting snug beside me. “Farm food.” Her words hung in the car’s heated interior, as we thought about what that phrase might mean, and what it meant to each of us. Finally, someone else asked what she meant by “farm food.” “You know,” she said, her voice smiling and sighing, “the kind of food you really want to eat after working on a farm all day long.”

That’s the kind of food found in the cookbook, Cooking with Shelburne Farms: Food and Stories from Vermont, by Melissa Pasanen and Rick Gencarelli. Uncomplicated, honest, satisfying food that could qualify as comfort food, but also certainly fancy enough for a company dinner. In many ways, the book itself reminds me of the historic landmark: bound in chocolate brown, gold-stamped linen, it evokes the slate-roofed formal turrets of the farm barns, house and restaurant. Underneath the elegance, Shelburne Farms is a productive working farm, and so it is with the book as well, between the well-crafted covers lie over 130 recipes that warmly feed the body and the soul.

The book is divided up into base ingredients, or themes, into which the recipes are grouped. Savory Milk and Cheese, Early Spring and Summer Greens, Lamb, Wild Mushrooms, Apples, Sweet Maple; these are some examples of the section headings, which are designed to highlight produce or flavors which are familiar to the Farms. The first recipe I tried from the book had to be the most fun – Home-Churned Butter. It was shockingly easy to make and very satisfying to be able to produce at home something I frankly take for granted.

After that opener, the recipes continued to comfort and delight as I cooked and my family and friends devoured them. We served the Shepherd’s Pie with Caramelized Onions and Cheddar Smash to some house-guests for dinner, and the leftovers were especially requested for the following day again as lunch. The Tomato-Cheddar Soup and the Celery Root Soup with Blue Cheese both helped to invigorate us and keep a head cold at bay. A brunch with friends included the Golden Flannel Hash (featuring beets and smoked trout), and the Orange-Yogurt Coffee Cake. One late night at work for my husband meant coming home to the Milk-Braised Chicken with Sage and Bay, with Honey Glazed Carrots and Turnips. Another late night offered Spice-Rubbed Lamb Chops with Fennel, Chickpeas and Tomatoes.

Interspersed with the recipes are beautiful color photographs, and interviews with Shelburne Farms farmers and producers and the Webb family. This book brings a beautiful part of Vermont history and landscape to life in my own kitchen.

Nikon 1 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 Nikkor VR review by Tord
Review Date: 3/30/2015 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Total Spent: $1,200.00| Rating: 10

Pros: The sharpest zoom lens (especially in its long end) I've ever used!
Cons: Price

I am fortunate to be able to borrow this lens, as often as I want, as my wife is one of those that have found a copy of this hard to find, super quality, lens (like all such lenses expensive).

It is roughly the size of Nikon's 55-200 (stowed for transport), or Nikon new 300/4.0, that is, it fits in your jacket problem, with ease. If you have big pockets the camera can stay attached as well!

Like the 32/1.2 it has its focusing ring up front, and it isn't the easiest lens to use if you like to shoot birds in flight: basic settings: AFS, spot/centre metering, limiter ON, and focus manually till you get a sharpish image, then focus (normal method with all other zooms I've used is: zoom out, catch the birdie, zoom in — does not work with this lens, unless you have a background, and then the lens might lock to the background).

Never touch the focusing ring again, till you switch object! The slightest touch and you've lost your bird!

The focusing ring on this lens is up front, so you might need to retrain your hands!

I normally use my 80-400 VR (on my V2), an astounding lens, but after having shot so many birds, and animals, side by side with my wife, and then comparing our shots, using pixel-peeping, the answer is sadly this:

The over two times as expensive, and twice as heavy (and then some), 80-400 VR II is easily matched by the tiny 70-300CX (aka Nikon 1 VR 70-300).

For BIF the 80-400 VR II has a slight edge, yes, but the resulting images are not better!

I also shoot with FX gear, and that's when I get an edge (with the 80-400 VR II), if the birds are close enough!

When using a CX camera, with the 80-400 VR II, equals a 200-1000mm zoom on a FX camera. Such a lens you just can't buy for your FX!

And you can off course use TCs, if you find a suitable one!

Well, that's a lot funnier than the one I made -- which, BTW, is a clone of the Kos image, thus demonstrating hoe the forgery was made.

Props to Brian for making this site available, and for referencing my original work.

Props to Mike for picking up on it right away also.

I tried to log into William Teach's WordPress blog, but I had no luck.

Wordpress is wierd like that.

Anyway, I wanted to give him props to seeing what I saw on 6/12 also.

What people don't know is that I tried to convince World Net Daily to run my analyses, but they declined.

Then, a weedk after I published my blog, WND reported what Israel Insider reported about my work.

Nothing like snubbing a scoop, and then posting the same info from a secondhand source!

Now, I also tried to leave a reply about that throbbing GIF, to say that it actually proves that the Kos image is a forgery of the DeCosta image!

Thanks to finding their morphed Kos and DeCosta, they produced the De-"Kos"-ta missing link that proves, conclusively, how the forgery was made.

With all of the critics saying that no two COLB images look alike because of differences in scanners, printing, JPG losses, etc., they just unwittingly cut their own throats by saying, in effect, that the Kos image, produced "allegedly" in June 8, 2007 SHOULD LOOK NOTHING LIKE the Decosta image, produced Sep 9 2002!

Techdude delivers the final report, yada yada. Interesting. Let me just say this...and leave the real research to you. KERNING has a specific definition. It is adding to and/or removing SPACE BETWEEN CHARACTERS [end of definition] (in order to make a better appearance when the construction of a letter in a particular font in standard kerning format yields conjunction of two letters as either too close together, or too far apart). Techdude's so-called animation of kerning is NOT an animation of kerning. Watch it closely. It grows and shrinks the letters themselves, leaving their spacing the same throughout. This is morphing of characters, and is not used in kerning. He talks about very technical things, and goes on and on and on about his meticulous attention to detail. Well, this one stood out like a sore thumb, after just a moment of cruising down the did not take countless hours of research and scientific testing, and I submit NEITHER DID HIS ANALYSIS.

TechDude said that the borders on a 2007 COLB were identical to the borders on Michele's 2008 COLB.

But, I had already received a real, 2007 COLB whose borders resembled those on Obama's forged COLB -- and not Michele's 2008 COLB.

This major of deception is enough to warrant tossing everything he said that he "found" in the trashcan.

He also claimed that colleagues sent him original paper COLBs from 2006 to 2008, as well as from 2001 to 2003, yet the "corner" images that he displayed were taken directly from existing images posted on the Net (from Tomoyasu, Smith, and DeCosta).

There were other things, but the bottom line is by making false claims and fabricating evidence, he tarnished the true, genuine research that was conducted on the COLB forgery.

I feel eveyone's hiding something!
Why is government not addressing the issue?
Did Obama really travel to Hawii to visit his grandmother, OR pay tons of campaign cash for a birth certificate from one of their hospitals?
Possibly more than the Republicans shelled out for Palin's campaign wardrobe.
There are too many irregularities and unanswered questions on Obama's entire campaign funding, childhood, (poverty to Ivy League colleges), and he and his wife's polished verbal presentations on camera. Sometimes I feel I'm listening to used car lot salesmen making a 60 second pitch - who at least look into the camera.
Why is Obama's birth being ignored prior to election day?
#5 sandy 28-Oct-2008
Okay so going beyond the birth certificate that obama does not want anyone to see. Did OBama's natural mother give up her citizenship status when she married the Kenyan? Does anyone know this, or can that be obtained. if we knew this, then we would know the rest of the story. I bet it wouldn't cost someone with a little bit of extra cash in thier bank account to obtain this info from a Kenyan...yes?
#6 Polarik 29-Oct-2008
Yes, she did. She also gave it up when she became an Indonesian citizen, because both countries prohibit a person from having dual citizenship.

In Revelations, it talks about a world leader who will fool everyone into thinking that he is the Messiah and will follow him, as he leads people away from teachings of the Church
#9 kenai123 25-Nov-2008
Well I think that the media needs more concrete evidence before they can
cover this story without getting hit with a defamation suit or causing unnecessary
uproar until Obama responds to the writ or the hearing takes place with the
Supreme Court. Allot of peoples reputations are on the line and I’m sure
there are certain private powers that's interests are involved as well.
They did not need concrete evidence when Carl Cameron printed the blatant lies about
Palin or McCain.
They didn't need it when Carl Cameron, a Fox reporter made
stupid Kerry mistakes with fake Kerry quotes, Posted 10/2/2004 9:08 AM
Carl Cameron didn't need concrete evidence before printing the Palin Africa story lie.

The birth certificate is a small part of the evidence. The connection to his Occidentat College records, divorce records, SSS registration look certain he was a foreign student who did not have to register for Selective Service because he was not required to. Then when he needed one for his campaign, he got help and made one up.
List of documents not released and links
Good legal talk

The charges and evidences against Barack Obama are on my website, court style:

A copy was sent to Barack Obama and US Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald. Both were sent about 2-11-09. Barack Obama clearly thinks he has something to hide.

Email the president that you want this controversy ended,
#12 Kate 13-Apr-2011
It amazes me how ignorant people like you are. It's funny how all you simple minded people have dedicated such time to look like fools. Obama should have never shown his birth certificate to the public, no president was ever targeted to do that, only because he isn't completely white.

Today’s romantic Vermont wedding comes from Pam Cooley, one of the awesome photographers in the Snippet & Ink Select vendor guide!

The bride’s bouquet of white peonies was embellished with a white ribbon and black and white cameo brooch.

Says the bride, “Towards the end of our reception it rained, creating such a romantic and cozy atmosphere in the barn. Afterwards, a heavy fog settled on the mountains that took both ourselves and our guests breath away. There was so much beauty in every part of the day!”

The taupe bridesmaid dresses were designed by the bride and custom made by Vlasta’s in Hamilton, Ontario. All of the ladies carried bouquets of lush, white peonies.

White flowers and candlelight created a warm and inviting atmosphere inside the antique barn. The four tiered buttercream wedding cake was decorated with white peonies.

Why did you choose this location for your wedding?  As a little girl, I envisioned a wedding in an open field, surrounded by lush green mountains. I had always dreamt of one day visiting Vermont – I love its storybook beauty, with its rolling hills and historic charm. After stumbling upon a link online and visiting Riverside Farm, we both fell in love. It was everything we had dreamed of and more. We were thrilled with the idea of inviting our closest family and friends to spend such a special weekend with us in such a beautiful place.

What inspired you when you were planning your wedding?  We tried to compliment everything our venue already had to offer. Riverside was inspiration all on its own. We incorporated details that we felt added romance, elegance and sweetness to the rustic venue..

What was your favorite moment or part of the day?  I’ll always remember getting ready. Waking up to the sunrise through the french doors, tip-toeing around on gorgeous wide planked floors that so many brides have walked with the same anticipation and excitement. The entire morning was a dream.

Did you include any traditions in your wedding?  We incorporated two of my favorite traditions into the day: something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue; and the throwing of rice during our recessional.

What advice do you have for other brides?  After the ceremony, we snuck away for a moment alone. It was so nice to have a few minutes to ourselves to soak in the commitment we had just made together. We didn’t plan it – it happened on a whim – so I would say my best advice to brides is to give yourselves a few minutes entirely alone during the day.

Solage Calistoga seamlessly blends the feel of a romantic rustic garden with modern wine country elegance, making it a perfect backdrop for Liz and Dez’s wedding celebration. LVL Events brought the bride’s vision for a magical evening to life, and Esther Sun was behind the camera to capture it all…

Liz’s romantic bouquet was full of lush garden roses, dahlias, chocolate cosmos, accented with trailing vines.

The littlest bridal attendants wore classic seersucker suits. Flower girls and bridesmaids alike donned coral pink dresses.

White rose petals added a touch of romance to the lawn where the ceremony was held.

What inspired you while you were planning your wedding?  I think that weddings are magical nights so I really wanted the affair to be gorgeous and elegant but with a touch of whimsy. I included things like loose floral arrangements with trailing vines and loads of taper candles which cast a warm twinkling glow. I was inspired by the romantic garden parties in the 1920s and the over all esthetic of Sophia Coppola movies. I love a lot of tone on tone, muted colors and nostalgic elements incorporated in a modern way. One of my favorite details was the champagne tower with coupe glasses.

What was your favorite moment or part of your wedding day?  I loved so many moments of the wedding but one that turned out to be particularly special was our first dance. My husband really doesn’t like dancing and the idea of a first dance with all eyes on him freaked him out. We selected a song that we both love to sing along with in the car, a blue grass tune called Wagon Wheel and invited all the guests to join in after the first verse. We had a little moment in the spotlight but then got to share our favorite song with all of our loved ones dancing along too. It was just a purely happy moment.

What is the best advice you were given as a bride?  The best advice I was given as a bride was to put your money into the three things that matter most to you. For me that was the food, the flowers and the photos. The big day goes by so fast, make sure you have killer pics so you can relive it whenever you want!

What advice would you give to couples planning now?  I would tell anyone who is getting married to stretch out the event. Make your wedding a whole weekend of festivities instead of just one night. There will probably be no other time in your life when you get to throw a huge party with all of your friends and family from across the country in one place. Take advantage of it! We had a big welcome dinner on the Friday before the wedding, and a brunch on Sunday after the wedding. I didn’t have a chance to talk to everyone at the wedding so it was great to have the other events to spend quality time with every guest.

Park & Ride

Northstar-at-Tahoe, California

The evolution of greatness.

By Blaise Rosenthal

Talk is cheap in the Lake Tahoe area, especially during the long months of late summer and early fall. The rumor mill is running at full power as everyone anxiously waits for the air to turn cold and the snow to fall, but when word got out that Northstar was planning to enlist the services of Chris Gunnarson and revamp its freestyle park, people took notice.

Northstar is the closest resort to Truckee and has perfect terrain for park building—lots of long intermediate slopes just itching to have jumps and obstacles built on them. And Gunny, well, let’s just say he’s built a park or two.

The first impact of Gunny’s efforts was felt opening week. Despite a severe lack of natural snow, the park run had good coverage and a variety of different rails and boxes. As the season progressed so did the parks. Northstar moved the main park to the Pinball run. Three solid jumps in a row made for perfect hucking, and all manner of rails and boxes from rainbows to kinks to flatbars were represented. Northstar had a mini pipe up and running and built a new well-maintained Superpipe. The best part is that the park flowed into the halfpipe so you could ride park and pipe on every run. A scaled-down beginner park was built on the Jiboom run, complete with small tables and jibs for learning.

In March Northstar hosted the TransWorld Team Challenge and built a special park for it that opened up for public consumption afterward. The Team Challenge Park featured another jump combo line and boxes and rails on spines, which also funneled into the pipe for the perfect run. This park kept everyone shredding through the spring.

The freestyle options at Northstar last season were numerous and constantly evolving thanks to a motivated park staff led by Andrew Miller. Because of Northstar’s dedication to providing the right areas and involving the right people, it’s rapidly becoming the premier resort for park riding in the Lake Tahoe area. And if my word isn’t good enough for you, just ask Dave Downing, Travis Parker, Scotty Wittlake, Jake Devine, Robby Sell, Jim Rippey, Sean Tedore, Shannon Dunn, or any of the other pro and talented riders who ride Northstar every day.

Read: JT Miller Has Already Learned A Lot Being In The AHL

In the Whale’s first preseason game, 2011 first round pick JT Miller scored the only goal for CT on a one-timer.

Miller told the Rangers website “I felt good and felt more comfortable as the game went on.”

He added, “I got the experience last year which really helped me so I knew what to work for all summer coming into the season. I learned that you just need to stick with it and treat your body well. I learned that you needed to be in the top physical shape out there and there is no room for error.”

The Rangers website wrote “He also created several other chances with confident one-on-one moves and slick passes to his linemates, and his physical game was as advertised” and added that he didn’t look out of place for a kid of only 19.

Earlier in training camp, Jim Schoenfeld said “right now we think he is physically ready to play in the American level. Mentally and emotionally he isn’t intimidated. His skill level is high enough to play here. I think that the best place for him to develop would be with the Whale but we haven’t made that decision yet.”

I am very disappointed. I watched all of the AMC one hour episodes 5 days a week on T.V. I was thrilled to have AMC back again, even if it was online. I was hoping that it would go back to 1 hours episodes 5 days a week. Just two 20 minute episodes a week will not be enough. The story lines will surely have to move faster as the one with Cassandra and the Russian mob is really dragging along already. I hope that you will reverse your decision and go back to 5 days a week. I do not watch the Friday wrap up show as it is just review anyway.

I am happy to have AMC and OLTL back but I am glad that PP is cutting back to 2 new shows per week. I am one of those viewers that has to "binge" view the epsiodes and it is exhausting. Besides, since they taped/are taping 100 episodes per season, the series will run for 50 weeks now instead of 25. I would rather have the show run for more weeks with fewer weekly episodes than for fewer weeks with a several month hiatus in between seasons.

I really think that Prospect Park did not really care about long-time viewers like myself who have been watching just about since the original AMC began when they started this new version. I think they are trying to capture a new younger audience...if that, (demographic to whom they pitch ads, etc.) and they are doing a lame job.
For one thing, I signed up not once but twice to be on the mailing list for them to tell me when or if the soap will be coming online, and they never sent me a thing. I found out on my own. How many others are not even aware that the show is back on? Yes, we do own computers...I do and many do today, and we will watch if they have the soaps on. I watched only AMC and started watching them again, only for a big letdown. Ideally if it aired on the soap network it would be easier to watch for many...if it can last.
I cannot see how stars will work for so few hours and most likely so little pay, and all PP will attract are the young new actors that we do not know or recognize as who they are supposed to be.... I think half-hour soaps without so many commercials would be fine if daily, and the actors will go for it more. Some may be out of work or want part-time acting, but I can see them all opting out if they don't have contracts of any length. Prospect Park is not trying hard enough, and I don't think they really care...too bad...I was so happy to see some of the best and my favorites on the show...with the hope of others coming back...just a dream it seems now. %(

Spontaneous Soul

Yesterday, I decided that I would cook up a delicious soul food dinner. I hadn’t been fully rested, but I was determined to push through the fog and fatigue to keep from napping (and throwing my sleeping off track) and to satisfy my taste buds. We grabbed a few things from the grocery and within a few hours, we were dining on this.

I’m so happy I decided to cook a spontaneous meal and live blog it because it inspired me to keep creating art in the kitchen. I had been feeling overwhelmed, contemplating canceling my plans to attend my second BlogHer Food conference. My food blog still isn’t up, we’re making changes in our household, and events drain me. I just haven’t been in the mood to be around a bunch of people no matter how awesome they are. But I got my hotel reservation yesterday and boy is it fancy. I’ll survive and come back even more inspired than last year. It’ll be a good time.

Kneebody: Gritty Jazz Meets Electronica

Tuesday, October 01, 2013

Kneebody (Courtesy Paulifornia)

The band Kneebody is notoriously tough to pin down, genre-wise. The group, which is made up of several graduates from the Eastman School of Music and Cal Arts, has been around since 2001, and along the way has picked up a Grammy nomination in the "classical crossover" category, worked with trumpeter and label-owner Dave Douglas and garnered plenty of young fans.

But whatever you want to call the music on its latest album -- electric jazz, jazz-rock, progressive jazz -- it's at turns danceable, introspective, and always ear-catching.

Hear the quintet play songs off of that new album, The Line, in the Soundcheck studio.

bug with folder margin colors

  • hi

    if you change the folder margin style to Simple Style, Arrow Style, Box style, etc, your colors are no longer used.. You get only a few of the colors, maybe the background, but the main fill color resets to white.. You have to go back into style configurator and change something and press apply to get the colors to go back
