UFC champion Jon Jones celebrates with his brother and the Baltimore Ravens after Super Bowl win

UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones was on the field to celebrate after the Baltimore Ravens won the Super Bowl on Sunday. His brother Arthur had a fumble recovery, a sack and two tackles as the Ravens won 34-31. According to his Twitter account, Jon talked to 21-time Olympic medalist Michael Phelps, talked with retiring legend Ray Lewis, and danced with his mother and brother.

All three Jones brothers are professional athletes. Chandler, the youngest, plays for the New England Patriots. His team was eliminated in the postseason by the Ravens, and his big brother Arthur.

Family Home and Life: Using PicMonkey With Scrapbook Pages

Using PicMonkey With Scrapbook Pages

I have used PicMonkey to make online Scrapbook pages for a while now. I haven't really given you a tutorial though on how to use the pages for yourself so I thought I should do that now. Please note; these pages will work for an online Scrapbook but because of the size of each page you can't print it. You can re-size them before you add your photos if you want to print them. If anyone knows of a way to print out full size pages please share with me!


You use these pages just like you would a photo; saving them, attaching them, Facebooking them just like a photo. Of course, you will want to put your photos on them and some text too. ?I put together a simple page to use for this tutorial.

Start by right clicking on the scrapbook pages you want to use along with the Snowed In Color Palette and saving them to your computer as an image (save image as...). Go to PicMonkey and choose 'Edit a Photo'. Choose a saved scrapbook page for your base sheet.?
If you want to print it from your computer later, then resize it first. Change the size to 607 x 758 for an 8 x 10 when printed. Apply.
Or you can crop it to 8 x 10 though you will lose some design.?Now choose 'overlays-your own' and upload the Snowed In Color Palette. This will be your color palette for your page.?You won't keep it on your page, it is just for referral while choosing our design colors.
Enlarge the uploaded color palette a little and put it on the side out of your way. You can?completely?move it off the page and it will still be there unseen should you want to pull it back onto your page to pick a color from it.?

Now choose 'overlays-geometric' and click the rectangle. Size it by left clicking and holding onto the outer edge and pulling it. Just guess what size you want, you will be able to move or change the size later if you want.?

Decide the color you want it to be and click on the color bar anywhere then on the right vertical bar. Your cursor becomes a dropper. Take it to the color palette and choose your color; the rectangle becomes the color you clicked on.?

Now right click on the rectangle and choose 'Duplicate overlay' and click for the amount of photos you want. (I chose to have 3) Re-size and position them.?
Now choose 'overlays-your own' and upload your photos and position them.
The text option is the P on the left side. Choose your font; I used Playball. Type your text and then click it again to select it (it will have a blue background behind it) and you can then change the size by sliding the sizing button left or right. You can also change the color now too. Click on the rainbow bar to choose or use the dropper to pick your color from your color palette. You can add text any where on the page including over the photos, each one can be a different font or color that you want.?
Play with other option to decorate and personalize your pages. When a feature has this little orange crown, it is a membership only feature. ?When you are finished decorating, give your page a name and save it to your pictures. You will want to make sure the Color Palette is completely off the page or deleted before you save your page.?

Choose the 'overlay-your own' to upload other scrapbook pages and combine them for your own designs.

I rarely use the 'merge' option - I just save as it is to my computer then I can make changes if I want while it is still on PicMonkey. If I?merge?it then you can't make any changes.
Here is my finished page. This page can now be added to any online album or uploaded on Facebook or attached in a email. I can use it just like a photo. I hope you enjoyed my tutorial and pages!


I have other post about using PicMonkey; here is a tutorial how to make your own scrapbook pages.?

Creating Video Sitemaps for each Video Hosting Platform by Distilled

The TL:DR of getting pages indexed with a video rich snippet is ?submit a video XML sitemap?. Unfortunately, this advice is not much use for the majority of users, who host their content with external providers or social video platforms and are then forced to work out whether or not their hosting service does this for them, and if not, how they should create and structure a video sitemap for their specific circumstances. To help simplify the whole process, I have created this post as a reference guide for those who have video on their site and want an answer to the ?how do i get video snippets?? question without having to do the additional work.

Thanks for reading and have a great weekend!

Imprisoned Pussy Riot member hospitalized

MOSCOW (AP) ? A jailed member of the Pussy Riot feminist punk band has been hospitalized after complaining of headaches and of suffering from overwork at a prison colony known for its tough conditions, a fellow band member said Friday.

An official confirmed that Nadezhda Tolonnikova, who is serving a two-year sentence for an irreverent protest against President Vladimir Putin in Moscow's main cathedral, is in a hospital at her prison colony in Mordovia in western Russia. But Federal Prison Service spokeswoman Kristina Belousova declined to specify her illness or comment on her condition, saying only it was "nothing serious."

She didn't say when exactly Tolokonnikova was admitted, but said it happened recently.

Yekaterina Samutsevich, a band member who also was sentenced to two years in August but later released on appeal, didn't say why Tolokonnikova was hospitalized, but she added that during their trial she said she was suffering from headaches and the judge ignored it. Samutsevich said that Tolokonnikova feels exhausted after working long hours with little sleep.

"They don't allow her to have any rest; she works nearly round the clock," Samutsevich told independent Rain TV on Friday. "She said she feels tired, extremely tired."

In an interview published last week in the independent Novaya Gazeta newspaper, Tolokonnikova stoically described harsh prison conditions, saying she doesn't expect any leniency from authorities.

Tolokonnikova, who works at a sewing machine like most female prisoners in Russia's prison colonies, told the paper that she has had her fingers punctured by the needle but has picked up speed and experience and can now meet her quota of making lining for 320 jackets a day. Like other prisoners, she bathes once a week and uses cold water to wash the rest of the week.

"I am not paying much attention to living conditions," she said in an interview filmed in December. "I'm ascetic, and living conditions matter little for me."

Tolokonnikova said she meditates to prevent her spirit from being dulled by the monotonous labor and added that the main thing she misses at her prison colony is the ability to read freely.

Tolokonnikova, Samutsevich and the third band member, Maria Alekhina, were found guilty of hooliganism motivated by religious hatred in August after they raucously prayed to the Virgin Mary for the deliverance from Putin at Christ the Savior Cathedral. Samutsevich was freed in October, but the two others were sent to prison colonies. The verdict has drawn global outrage, highlighting Russia's intolerance of dissent.

Senate to clear debt limit increase for Obama

WASHINGTON (AP) ? The Senate is poised to permit the government to borrow hundreds of billions of dollars more to meet its obligations, putting off one Washington showdown even as others loom in coming weeks.

The measure would suspend the $16.4 trillion limit on federal borrowing through May 18, allowing about $450 billion in new debt to be added to the federal ledger, according to an estimate by the Bipartisan Policy Center.

The Republican-controlled House passed the legislation last week. A successful Senate vote would send the measure to President Barack Obama, who is expected to sign it into law immediately.

Without the bill, the government would default on its obligations by as early as mid-February.

The short-term increase in the borrowing cap is the brainchild of House Republicans, who wanted to re-sequence a series of upcoming budget battles, taking the threat of a potentially devastating government default off the table and instead setting up a clash in March over automatic across-the-board spending cuts set to strike the Pentagon and many domestic programs.

Those cuts ? postponed by the recent "fiscal cliff" deal ? are the punishment for the failure of a 2011 deficit supercommittee to reach an agreement. The panel was itself established by the hard-fought 2011 increase in the debt limit.

Democrats are going along because the debt increase isn't contingent on matching cuts to the budget, as long demanded by House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio.

To sell the measure to House GOP conservatives, Boehner instead attached a "no budget, no pay" provision that would withhold pay for House and Senate members if the chamber in which they serve fails to pass a budget plan. That was a slap at the Democratic-controlled Senate, which hasn't passed a budget blueprint since 2009.

The "no budget, no pay" provision is seen by congressional insiders as a bad idea whose time has arrived. For starters, it makes members of the minority party dependent on the ability of the majority party to advance a budget if they all are to be paid. But the announcement of the move was quickly followed by an announcement by Senate Democrats that they would indeed advance a budget for the first time in four years.

Lawmakers have already shifted their focus to the across-the-board cuts, which would pare $85 billion from this year's budget after being delayed from Jan. 1 until March 1 and reduced by $24 billion by the recently enacted tax bill. Defense hawks are particularly upset, saying the Pentagon cuts would devastate military readiness and cause havoc in defense contracting. The cuts, called a "sequester" in Washington-speak, were never intended to take effect but were instead aimed at driving the two sides to a large budget bargain.

But Republicans and Obama now appear on a collision course over how to replace the across-the-board cuts. Obama and his Democratic allies insist that additional revenues be part of the solution; Republicans say further tax increases are off the table after the 10-year, $600 billion-plus increase in taxes on wealthier earners forced upon Republicans by Obama earlier this month.

The debt measure permits borrowing through May 18 and resets the debt limit to reflect it. But the deadline to again raise the ceiling would be pushed off until August, according to Bipartisan Policy Center calculations. That's because Treasury would retain the ability to use accounting steps known as "extraordinary measures" to stave off default.

Automotive display demand to reach 70 Million by 2016, says DisplaySearch

Press release, February 1; Alex Wolfgram, DIGITIMES?[Friday 1 February 2013]

Shipments of TFT-LCDs used in automobiles for devices such as navigation and rear seat DVD players increased 16% on year to 49 million units in 2012, according to research firm DisplaySearch. Shipments are expected to increase to 70 million by 2016.

"Consumer demand is driving the production of smarter and more efficient automobiles, requiring automotive displays that increase functionality and safety," said DisplaySearch researcher Hiroshi Hayase. "Features such as navigation, audio and air-conditioning control, rearview monitors, and eco-driving displays provide safety, energy information, and other conveniences while on the road."

A major factor propelling automotive displays is the growing production of hybrid and electric vehicles. Helping fuel the fire is demand for replacements of older single-function displays, which use passive matrix LCDs, noted the firm.

Japan continues to dominate the production of automotive TFT LCD panels, especially in high-grade automobiles, while the US and Europe are making headway in mid-grade and small-size vehicles. In 2012, Japan Display became the top automotive TFT LCD maker, followed by Sharp and LG Display. Automotive TFT LCD panel demand in Japan was led by car navigation set makers, including Panasonic, Alpine, and Pioneer. However, demand from set makers in the US and Europe was driven by cluster component makers, including Continental AG, BP/Bosch, Ford, and Johnson Controls, added DisplaySearch.

"Interestingly, we've noticed that automotive display demand in Japan favors car navigation systems, while demand for TFT LCD panels for automobiles in the US and Europe favors in-console displays," added Hayase. "Regardless of the type of automotive display technology, we are seeing trends toward more cars incorporating this technology, so we anticipate continued growth in this segment."
