Q: Iterate JTable in JTextArea I want to iterate jTable in jTextArea
I tried this code :
int row = tableModel.getRowCount();

        for (int i = 0; i < row; i++) {
                jRcRprtTextArea.setText("___________________________________\n"
                        + "Item Name    Price   Qty.    Total\n"
                        + "_____________________________________________");
        jRcRprtTextArea.append("\n"
                + tableModel.getValueAt(i, 1)
                + "\t" + tableModel.getValueAt(i, 2)
                + "\t" + tableModel.getValueAt(i, 3)
                + "\t" + tableModel.getValueAt(i, 5)
        );
    }

But this doesn't work
Even I tried for single row in for loop but it also doesn't what I want to achieve.
I expecting jTextArea must have all text from jTable as if I'll add new row to jTable.
Previous text disappearing from jTextArea and just newly added row text adding there.
Here I can see that all rows printing using println() method.
So why does not it getting in jTextArea?

A: Try this sample code. It should work.
Main point is that you need to call the JTextArea.setText() within a TableModelListener. I've corrected the column indices in your code. And the headers of the text area is moved out of the for loop.

Q: Libgdx coordinates Gdx.input.getX() incorrect So I'm sitting here with a phone with a 800px wide screen.. and Gdx.graphics.getWidth() also returns 800 as it should..
But when I get coordinates from Gdx.input.getX() the highest number I get when touching the screen all the way to the left is around 780.. and around 20 in the right side..
So all my coordinates are wrong, so all my buttons and stuff are not working as they should etc.
Any idea what is going on?

A: Try to unproject the coordinates.
Vector3 vec=new Vector3(Gdx.input.getX(),Gdx.input.getY(),0);
camera.unproject(vec);
// now use vec.x and vec.y instead of gdx.input.get...

A: Your coordinates are calculated from the other direction so you have to use
float ClickY = GameHeight - Gdx.input.getY();

New research shows that Norwegian salmon farmers could save money by exercising their fish.
Due to escape, disease, handling-related injuries and other issues, only 80-85 percent of salmon transferred to sea cages in Norway survive to reach slaughter size.
"There are many reasons for poor smolt quality, but most are related to intensive production methods," says Senior Scientist Harald Takle of the Norwegian Institute of Food, Fisheries and Aquaculture Research.
Dr. Takle and his research team tested a variety of exercise regimes on salmon, begining as juveniles. They found that the right amount of exercise, without overexertion, can significantly increase the percentage of fish that reach full size at sea.

The Seychelles are not only a dream holiday destination for adults, but also for children of all ages. There are no prescribed vaccinations, and dangerous diseases and animals are absent from the country, as are weather catastrophes, because the Seychelles lie outside the hurricane zone, sparing them from bad storms. All of these factors make the Seychelles a safe, family-friendly destination.
The time difference is just two hours from Central European summer time, taking jet lag out of the equation for parents and children alike.
In the Seychelles, there is a tropical warm climate with daytime temperatures of around 30 °C (86 °F), and, thanks to the country's proximity to the equator, there aren't many temperature fluctuations. The weather is therefore suitable for family trips all year-round. However, the sun in the Seychelles is particularly strong, so special caution is required, as with most warm countries. This is especially true for children, but adults should also protect themselves from the sun with a hat and high-factor sunscreen. Many of the Seychelles' beaches have little shade, and the few that do fill up quickly. Those with children should avoid beaches in the middle of the day, and visit instead early or late in the afternoon. Not only is the sun less strong, the popular beaches are less busy at these times, allowing you to relax with your children.
The sand is clean and powdery-soft, and provides perfect conditions for playing on the beach. Many of the Seychelles' bays have an offshore reef that provides protection from the open ocean, as well as ensuring shallow water depth for children. Especially at low tide, the water level is sometimes so low that adults cannot swim, but children can certainly paddle around in the shallows. Nevertheless, they should never be left unattended. Parents should also avoid letting their children play under coconut trees, as falling coconuts are very dangerous.
There are several types of accommodation in the Seychelles, many of which are suitable for families with children. From child-friendly resorts and hotels to authentic guesthouses and self-catering accommodation, there is something for every taste. Many of these options are not explicitly-aimed at children, so do not offer children's pools or kids clubs, but family bookings with children are still largely possible. The larger hotels and resorts are more well-equipped for families, and offer some extra options for those with children. For some accommodation, it is important to bear in mind that they only accept children over a certain age.
Anyone travelling with an infant should book their flight well in advance in order to obtain a spot on the plane with an accompanying infant bed - lots of airlines only have one or two of these places on each flight, which are fully-booked quickly.
Most of the activities you can take part in in the Seychelles alone can also be carried out with children. These include, in particular, walks on the beach, swimming and bathing in the warm Indian Ocean, or boat trips to smaller, isolated islands. There are also a number of more manageable walks which are great for families. It should be noted, however, that some tours, especially longer ones, are not suitable for families with children. The routes can lead over rocks and through the jungle, and baby strollers or carriers cannot be taken along as there are no 'official' paths. For children, these routes can be very dangerous, so are definitely not to be recommended.
Thankfully, there are alternatives, such as a visit to the small capital, Victoria, which is located on the main island of Mahé, and is perfect for a half-day trip. At Beau Vallon beach, the most famous and bustling beach in the Seychelles, visitors can explore the underwater world of the Seychelles with a glass-bottomed boat, removing the need for snorkelling equipment, which is a great alternative for kids.
In several of the Seychelles national parks, including the Vallée de Mai, which belongs to the UNESCO World Heritage List, children can discover the flora and fauna of the Seychelles. Families staying on Praslin can also take a boat trip to see the giant tortoises on Curieuse Island; these animals are a real highlight for both adults and children alike.
One of the most important ways of finding out if a far-flung destination is family-friendly is by asking someone who's already been there with their own children. Thanks to our Travel Journals, you can read the experiences of previous SeyVillas customers who visited the tropical paradise of the Seychelles with their own children! Or, in some cases, read travel journals written by the young ones themselves!

Tyler Szalkowski's monster day leads No. 1 Aquinas over St. Joe's in home opener
Stevie Johnson
Sophomore quarterback Tyler Szalkowski put on a show and nearly broke two Section V records at Wegmans Stadium to lead Aquinas over St. Joseph's, 49-21, on Saturday.
Szalkowski was nearly perfect as he completed 23 of his 28 passes for 484 yards and seven touchdowns. The Section V website shows the record for touchdowns in a game is eight and the record for passing yards is 485, set by former Aquinas quarterback Jake Zembiec.
It's been quite the year for the underclassman quarterback, as he now has 1,086 passing yards and 15 touchdowns.
"Tyler was fantastic today. He made all the reads. Coach (Dan) Pincelli put him in the proper situations. He's really stepped in and he's really become the man. He's a sophomore, but he's become the guy. He has a great command of the offense and he doesn't get flustered under pressure," Aquinas coach Derek Annechino said after the home game. Pincelli is the offensive coordinator.
The Little Irish, ranked No. 1 in the Democrat and Chronicle's large school poll and No. 5 in the state, needed the big performance with All-Greater Rochester running back Caron Robinson sidelined.
Szalkowski got the scoring started by scrambling to his left and completing a 13-yard touchdown to Will Benjamin in the first. After the Marauders tied the game at 7, Szalkowski completed a beautiful 42-yard pass to a diving Kobe McNair in the endzone.
The Little Irish surged ahead 21-7 after another touchdown pass, but St. Joe's only trailed 21-14 at the half. The Marauders' hybrid double wing, spread offense gave Aquinas fits early, but the team adjusted in the second half, holding St. Joe's to one touchdown.
"Coach (Dave) Howlett, our defensive coordinator, there isn't an offense he hasn't seen. It just takes some time to get (adjusted) to it. Plus we're young in a couple of spots — we have a couple sophomores at defensive tackle, a freshman middle linebacker and another sophomore at safety," Annechino said.
"We're young in the middle of the defense and they're a good coaching staff. They knew that and they exploited it a little, but we did some things to fix it."
Szalkowski threw four more touchdowns in the second half and the Aquinas defense forced a fumble in the redzone while leading 42-21 to put the game away. McNair finished with five catches for 130 yards and a touchdown.
James Jones had seven receptions for 80 yards and a touchdown as well.
Players of the Game
Ulysees Russell — Szalkowski will get most of the headlines, but how about his favorite target on the afternoon? The sophomore caught five passes for 180 yards and had three second-half touchdowns to help the Little Irish pull away. His second touchdown, a 76-yard score on a quick screen, saw Russell stiff-arm a defender before racing to the endzone.
In total, Szalkowski found five different players for touchdown passes on the afternoon. "We definitely have some athletes around and it's a good thing because we go into a lot of games undersized and our offensive line has to battle. It helps to have those guys out on the edges that can get to the endzone," Annechino said.
It was hard to pick just one play, but early in the second quarter the Little Irish were facing a fourth down near the redzone. Szalkowski rolled to his right, while Jones crept back to the other side of the field for a throw back screen.
Once Szalkowski tossed it back to him, Jones followed his convoy of blockers for an easy 21-yard score. Credit Annechino and Pincelli for the crafty play call.
Unsung hero
Ruben Torres — Filling in for Robinson isn't easy, but Torres found a way to make an impact on the game. He had 56 yards rushing on eight carries and caught a 35-yard touchdown on a screen pass.
Aquinas will host undefeated Washington, D.C.-area school Friendship Collegiate at noon Saturday.

This year it was held for the fifth time in January 2013, during the International Green Week (IGW) in Berlin and it was hosted by the German Federal Ministry of Food, Agriculture and Consumer Protection.
The Danish Bioenergy team (Roskilde University and Region Zealand) assists the symbiosis center and local companies in redesigning the energy system. The Bioenergy Promotion 2 project provides vital knowledge inputs to the key stakeholders about sustainable bioenergy resources and efficient conversion routes.
The Bioenergy Promotion 2 project partnership forms a "Virtual Bioenergy Promotion Secretariat", which assists and advises regions developing and implementing bioenergy strategies.
First Bioenergy Promotion 2 project conference was held in Skövde, Sweden on 18th of October 2012. This flagship project of the EU Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region Bioenergy Promotion 2 supports regions in reaching the EU's target for renewable energy of 20% by 2020.
First Bioenergy Promotion 2 project conference was held in Skövde in Skaraborg, Sweden on 18th of October 2012. Bioenergy Promotion 2 partners had a session at the yearly conference Framtidsforum (Forum for the Future). The conference focuses on issues that concerns rural development. This year the topics were energy, tourism, food and CAP.
The seminar "How to prepare investment process in ekoenergetics? - The key actions to convince local stakeholders and public" is devoted to the problem of investment process preparing in ekoenergetics.

State Archives and Library Building
In 1839, the Congress of the Texas Republic appropriated $10,000 for the purchase of books for use by the government. Though funding soon dried up and collections lost in a series of fires, the State Library was maintained in various forms and eventually brought under the auspices of the Texas State Library and Historical Commission in 1909. Records produced and maintained by Texas governments were moved from place to place over time and were even the subject of a contentious "Archives War" in 1842 between presidents Sam Houston and Mirabeau Lamar. The dispute centered around which city would serve as the capital of Texas, as that is where the archives would be housed. Lamar's preference for Austin ultimately won out. While the books were always maintained in the Capitol building, due to limited space the archives were relocated to other facilities and often stored in conditions not conducive to preservation. While many had advocated for a separate Texas State Library over the years, the possibility of a new building finally became reality in the 1950s.
In January of 1957, Governor Price Daniel recognized the need and recommended the legislature direct $2,500,000 from a surplus in the Department of Public Safety to construct a purpose-built facility on the Capitol grounds for the archival and library collections. Daniel's address stated that, "…one of the most priceless treasures of the people of Texas will continue to suffer damage and possible destruction as long as the archives, Texas history collection, and historical records remain housed in a Quonset hut in the repair yards of the Highway Department." With the funding secured, groundbreaking ceremonies were held on May 11, 1959, and the "sunset red" granite State Archives and Library Building was completed in July of 1961. Governor Daniel presided over the building dedication that took place during National Library Week of April 1962. He said of the building in his remarks, "Its beauty, dignity, and practical usefulness are worthy of its role as custodian of the sacred records of our history, past, present, and future."

"Beginning at birth: Comprehensive findings from a prospective nutritio" by Kimberly C. Brown MD, Claire M. Lenhart PhD, MPH et al.
Introduction: Incident obesity among young black and Hispanic children remains a compelling public health concern. With body weight trajectory established in early life relating profound implications for family health, obesity prevention beginning in early infancy is needed. Methods: This prospective intervention changed the clinical environment bringing obesity-focused primary prevention to mother-baby dyads (n=282 to-date) in an urban primary care clinic. Recruited within the baby's first two weeks of life and assigned to the intervention or standard pediatric care, intervention dyads are seen by a dietitian and physician within the clinic visit who together monitor weight gain, feeding habits (inclusive of breastfeeding support), and provide nutrition counseling appropriate to the baby's developmental stage and maternal needs designed to increase the proportion with healthy weight-for-length through age two. Socioecologically-guided factors impacting weight and health are collected at baseline, 6-, 12-, 18-, and 24-months and combined with electronic medical records to enable comprehensive comparisons between groups throughout the study period. Results: A diverse (68.4% Hispanic, 13.1% black), high-need (31.5% food insecure) sample enrolled at baseline. Initial breastfeeding update is common (75.2%) with strong self-efficacy for breastfeeding reported (M=4.26/5). 6-month data collection is being finalized and 12-month mother-baby dyad data will also be available which collectively will illuminate intervention factors associated with favorable infant weight-for-length trajectory and maternal health. Discussion: Provision of comprehensive nutrition education and obesity prevention in a primary care clinic is feasible and holds promise for positively impacting the health of diverse families.

About What Addresses We Probe
A person asked us:
I was reading: https://ant.isi.edu/address/whole_internet/ but what does this mean?: Blue indicates areas that were not probed because they were not public allocated unicast address space. most of the internet consists of this "not public allocated unicast address space"? what is this? can you give an example?
We only probe address space that is: public and unicast.
Of the 232 IPv4 addresses, about 18 million addreses are not public, but private (for internal use). See http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1918 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_network for a description. We do not probe these addresses because they are not globally routable. As an example, 10.0.0.1 is not a public IP address (if you can see it, you're probably behind a NAT), and 127.0.0.1 is also not public (it means localhost, the computer you're on).
Of the 232 IPv4 addresses, about 228 (prefix 224.0.0.0/4) are allocated for IP multicast See http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3171 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_Multicast for a description. We do not probe these addresses because they are are not unicast addresses. As an example, 224.0.0.1 means multicast to all hostss on the same network you're on.
Of the 232 IPv4 addresses, some are unallocated. The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) assigns addresses to registries. This list is constantly changing, but a current list of allocated and unallocated addresses is at http://www.iana.org/assignments/ipv4-address-space See also http://www.potaroo.net/tools/ipv4/index.html. An example unallocated address is 1.0.0.1, while an example allocated address is 128.150.4.107 (http://www.nsf.gov).
We also omit blocks of addresses whose owners request that they not be probed.
We probe whatever's left when you remove these categories (private, multicast, and unallocated, plus blocks that have requested they be omitted). In other words, we probe only addresses that are public, unicast, and allocated (and haven't objected).
Is of the data in USC/LANDER internet_address_survey_it15w-20061108, this corresponds to about 2.8 billion addresses.


I previously published an article on Breaking Muscle regarding neck and head strength training. It was important then, and yet remains imperative today due to the potential of brain and cervical spine trauma for not only combat sports, but other sports, as well.
One gentleman in particular has been an active proponent of head and neck training. Legendary University of Michigan football strength and conditioning coach Mike Gittleson (who had a remarkable run from 1978 to 2008). Coach Gittleson has done extensive work in researching neck and head training in his years removed from Michigan.
During this time, Gittleson discovered there is more to training than traditional neck flexion, extension, and rotation exercises. There are smaller, but important muscles of the head and neck that can be strengthened unconventionally to further safeguard against concussive and cervical spine trauma. Possessing a fortified neck can also augment athletic performance in a number of ways.
In an article written for the National Collegiate Athletic Association's web site, Coach Gittleson highlighted some new findings.
Nerve impulses running from the brain through the spinal cord can be affected by damaged, weak, or fatigued neck muscles. This can diminish both static and dynamic balance as well as basic locomotive actions. A stronger neck can thus improve balance and locomotion.
Regarding head training, having strong jaw muscles can lower the risk of injury. The ability to maximally bite down or clench on a mouthpiece prior to a collision is desired.
Similarly, knowing a head or neck impact force is forthcoming can better prepare the athlete for what lies ahead. A study found that when athletes knew it was coming, they were then better able to contract neck and head musculature prior to impact and reduce the severity of concussions.
Believe it or not, the strength of the neck can also impact the respiratory system and the quality of breathing. The anterior, medial, and posterior scalene muscles, along with the platysma and sternocleidomastoid muscles, contract and assist in respiration, especially during demanding exercise.
Who makes the connection between neck strength and breathing? Hardly anyone does. But in the grand scheme of things, it stands to reason that if it's a part of the body strengthen it. Make every link in the chain as strong as possible.
With the weak link thought in mind, let's take this even further. Most training programs address the total body in some capacity, including muscular strength, power, endurance, and flexibility. Interestingly, with the neck being a conduit for blood flow from the heart to the head, vascular resistance may increase from an underdeveloped neck coupled with a stronger and more vascular torso and lower body. Addressing neck strength can facilitate better peripheral blood flow to the head.
Stand straight and lightly put your fingers against the back of your neck.
Quickly move your eyes right and left, but keep your head stable.
You'll feel the neck muscles contracting in preparation for movement in the desired direction.
So, it makes sense. To protect athletes from potentially debilitating forces to the head and neck region and to maximize sport performance, use a comprehensive program. Indeed continue to use conventional neck flexion, extension, and rotation exercises, but also include jaw and head strengthening exercises that can help dissipate forces and increase the overall function of this often-times weak link.
For even more exercises, check out the list offered by Mark Watts of Elite FTS.

I went through a stack of very old papers that had gotten tucked away. Most of it went straight into the trash, but then I found this gem. He must have been barely ten.
Good afternoon, it is me Owen. I have wrote this letter saying I am deeply sorry for the "tantrum" this morning. As of now I am hiding somewhere in the back yard. You can come look or just stay there, I do not mind. I hope to make it up to you.
PS. Dad please meet me at the basketball court and get ready to go somewhere (??). And please just trust me.
I laughed and laughed and laughed. I couldn't even read it to Ernie because I was laughing so hard.
"...I am hiding in the backyard. You can come look for me or stay there, I do not mind." That just kills me. Poor little martyr.

A 70-year-old woman presented with increasing weakness and fatigue over 4 years. She had suffered motor problems from birth with hypotonia and delayed motor milestones. She walked abnormally in childhood but appeared to show some improvement at the age of 10 years, remaining ambulant throughout her life. She was seen by an eminent neurologist at the age of 15 years who documented a waddling gait, and after investigation she was given a diagnosis of "amyotonia congenita". At the age of 43 years she was reviewed; there had been no significant progression but she reported being intermittently worse during menstruation. Examination at that point revealed mild weakness of eye closure, mild right-sided ptosis, weakness and some wasting of the periscapular muscles and hip flexors. Investigations revealed mildly raised serum creatine kinase (CK) level (twice normal) and a myopathic electromyogram (EMG). Mild fibre hypertrophy and absence of type 2B fibres were noted on muscle biopsy and she was thought to have a form of congenital myopathy.
However, from the age of 66 years she had increasing difficulty climbing stairs and could only walk for 60 m. She was unable to lift heavy objects or use her arms above her head, she had difficulty holding her head up, occasional choking and breathlessness on exertion and when lying flat. Examination revealed bilateral ptosis with little fatigability (fig 1), mild facial and neck weakness, and her tongue was weak and had a central furrow. There was no ophthalmoplegia. She had marked shoulder girdle weakness with some wasting and scapular winging. There was also marked weakness around the pelvic girdle; she walked with a waddling lordotic posture, was just about able to get out of a chair without using her arms and she could stand on her heels and toes. Her vital capacity was 80% of …

The Vietnamese health authorities have shown a keen interest in Korea's health insurance system during their visit to the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service (HIRA). The Southeast Asian country is pushing for reform in the public health sector.
Vietnam's Health Minister Nguyen Thi Kim Tien and dozens of high-ranking officials visited the HIRA's head office in Wonju, Gangwon Province, on Monday, the health insurance review agency said.
Vietnam is one of the ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) members that HIRA is providing consultation for the improvement of the public health and medical system.
At the request of the World Bank, HIRA offered training for officials from Vietnam's health ministry and Vietnam Social Security last year. HIRA is now discussing to expand cooperation.
Ryu Jong-su, head of the international cooperation team at HIRA, said the agency was scheduled to provide training for global health officials in June and an international symposium in October to build a platform for the medical review sector and promote related discussions of the international community.
"HIRA will actively support the Moon Jae-in government's New Southern Policy to deepen ties with ASEAN countries, by providing an international symposium, training, and customized policy consultations," he said.


A well-known value sparkler among wine circles, often noted for it's pleasant fruitiness and fresh characteristics. Bright red berry fruit plays well with subtle hints of minerality and toast. The palate is light and lively. A true gem from South Africa.
Pairing red wine a chocolate can be tricky. This smooth, easy-going Merlot has just the right amount of bright plum and cherry fruit at its core to create a wonderful marriage. Take care to pair with darker chocolate for a successful match.
A cheeky name for a Valentine's Day wine, this bottle is a blend of ripe fruit from Paso Robles. The Pessimist is comprised of Syrah, Petite Sirah, Zinfandel and Tannat. Classic fruit-forward characteristics of California show intense dark fruit, licorice spice, and pepper.
An absolute steal for the price and perfect cold weather red. Ripe, juicy cherry and raspberry aromas are accentuated by lavender and baking spice. The decadent aromas are mirrored on the palate, with intense dark berries at the forefront and linger in a rich, silky mouthfeel.


Is It Financially Irresponsible To Have High Employee Turnover?
I think it's funny when companies hire multiple people at once in hopes that a few of them will stick around for the long haul. This is a terrible business practice that has been going on for years in various industries. The problem, if you hire multiple people at once and spend money to train all of them without really digging into who they are, you are wasting your companies money, especially if your turn over rate is higher than average. You also risk the employment of those who have been around for a while ie... unsatisfied due to limited sales, decrease in pay if your commissioned based, or the veteran who is waiting for their raise that sees money being wasted.
It is financially irresponsible to have a continuously high turnover rate. Think about it, if you are using additional resources and time to train people who are not fit for the position then leave after a month or two, wouldn't that be a waste of money? Companies who need to fill one or two positions hire ten people to fill only those positions, why? The thought, you do not know what you are getting when you hire someone, so the law of averages come into play. I firmly do not believe that this is the best practice. You have to take the time and energy to figure out who fits the part and the team, then train them to the best of your ability. Hiring a rash of people and giving them mediocre training can also cause a high turnover rate.
When you hire someone make sure you are giving them all the tools to do the job. In a world were hands on training is minimal, you can expect a minimal out come. Instead of using videos to explain something, take the time and do it yourself. We need to invest every resource we have into the people we hire and try not to leverage the law of averages. Think about all the money a company looses by the mass hire and fire routine. Invest in your company by investing in your employees.
The question that needs to be asked when a company has a high turnover rate, how does this affect the customer experience? Customers expect a professional and knowledgeable staff. If your company is constantly training and hiring new employees, where does the knowledge and professionalism come into play? It doesn't, it causes distrust among your prospective clients, it could also cause a bad or not so great experience. Your company needs a strong core to operate efficiently and effectively.
If you expect to grow your numbers and profitability, it is counter productive to higher a mass of people expecting to get the desired results, especially when the training is minimal. Instead focus on growing the people you have. If your operation grows and you need more employees, the focus turns to hiring the right person and giving them everything you have to make them successful. This will create a happier work space, a happier new hire, and decreased turnover. Your employees are only as good as the people hiring and training them.

I made three different sizes (4",6", 8") of round cakes, 2 of each size. I used Duncan Hines boxed cake mixes. I did one box of each in chocolate and in yellow. I added a little blue food coloring to the yellow cake mix to give it a green color to go with the theme. I split the mix into each size of pan. I layered chocolate and yellow (green) for each size to make it fun.
Mix butter, shortening and vanilla until creamy smooth. Add alternately the milk (1 tbs at a time) and powdered sugar mixing each time until all sugar is used, but only adding enough milk to make frosting smooth enough to spread over cakes. Separate frosting into 3 bowls, half in one, then 1/3 in another bowl and 2/3 in the last bowl. Add coloring to each bowl to make your desired shade, I used yellow, blue, and green with yellow.
Be sure to let the cakes cool completely before you frost them. Frost each 2 layer cake first then stack them.
Stack cakes on top of each other off center (or centered, if you like), you may need to use 1 to 4 clean skewers to push through all layers to keep the cake from falling over. Pipe "dots" or "beads" around the bottoms of each cake.
I used my son's clean and new Toy Story Aliens, Buzz, and the rocket for the aliens. The sticks around the cake were party food sticks that I found at my (somewhat) local Super Wal-Mart. At the last minute (literally), my son said he wanted stars on his cake, so I used yellow card stock and a star shaped paper punch to make them......by doing this, the moisture from the frosting soaked through. I would suggest using maybe some rolled fondant or just pipe the stars on instead.

Polk Middle's Bailey Staton tosses a pass to Kaylynne Holbert during the first half of Wednesday's game
Polk Middle shakes off slow start to win tournament opener
It certainly wasn't the start that Polk County Middle desired Wednesday.
The finish, though, proved very satisfying.
The Wolverines shook off a sluggish first quarter, relying on its defense and rebounding to key a 32-15 victory over Bethel Middle in the opening round of the Blue Ridge Conference Tournament.
Polk Middle (11-2) moved on to a 4:30 p.m. semifinal matchup Thursday at home against Waynesville Middle (10-3). The Mountaineers defeated the Wolverines earlier this season.
Polk Middle managed just a single point in the first quarter, struggling to get shots to fall and also going an uncharacteristic 1-for-6 at the foul line in the period.
But the Wolverines also largely kept Bethel off the scoreboard, the Demons leading just 4-1 early in the second period when Polk's Bailey Staton scored three times in less than a minute. That flurry seemed to spark Polk's offense, and the Wolverines never trailed again.
"We didn't give up. We just kept plugging away," said Polk Middle head coach Michelle Fagan. "We made some defensive adjustments in the second half against their guards that worked in our favor."
Staton canned a long 3-pointer to end the first half and give Polk a 16-6 lead at the break. The Wolverines continued to build that margin in the third period, using a 10-3 run to take a 17-point bulge into the final period.
Bethel tallied twice to open the fourth quarter and cut the deficit to 13, but a Reeve Carroll steal led to a Staton layup, Charley Dusenbury hit two free throws and Carroll scored on a fast break to build the advantage back to 32-13 with 2:37 remaining.
Staton finished with 21 points to lead Polk Middle, with Carroll and Dusenbury each scoring four. Leah Dotson added three points.
"I'm proud of them," Fagan said. "We're looking forward to (Thursday)."

Paulo Bento not fazed by supporters' unrest following Albania loss
By Duncan DaySep 7, 2014, 7:54 PM EDT
For Portugal, the World Cup didn't unfold to their specific aims, as they bowed out in the group stage while the United States advanced to the round of 16.
And the recent play of Paulo Bento's side has been far from impressive, with Portugal falling to a comparatively worse Albania squad, 1-0, in a Euro 2016 qualifying match. Bekim Balaj's magnificent volley arrived in the second half off a cross to the middle of the penalty area. A Selecção couldn't bury the equalizer, despite notable efforts that included Ricardo Horta's shot that banged off the crossbar towards the end of the contest.
It was clear that the Portugal supporters were not happy with the final score. Certain fans waved white tissues, which is a certain sign of discontent.
Nonetheless, Bento was untroubled by such happenings, noting that these circumstances are regular in sport and that the loss itself didn't show many worrisome inadequacies.
"[The white tissues] are normal situations of football," he said, according to Goal.com. "I think we must respect the choices and decisions of the people and try to continue. "We know that the game didn't go our way, although I think the result was unfair."
"It was a game that didn't go well in terms of the result, of course, but in the first half we had opportunities to score. We had the game completely controlled during the first 45 minutes."

"My first answer was money. When I asked why, I answered that I want to give my family a great life. Then, I asked, so does money matter to me most or is it the family? Since money was not all that I wanted to give to the family, I wanted to give them time, support to meet their dreams, and values to help them wade through the ups and downs, I got my answer. Family matters most to me. Money will only help me give them what they need. Having found the answer, I delved on the why part and I could recall my growing up years when I ..."
Show clarity about your short-term goals. Which industry, type of organization, role, why? What kind of challenges will you take up, what will you like to learn and contribute?

miniPCR curriculum director, Bruce Bryan, traveled to Southern California to train teachers in the use of miniPCR equipment and to spread the word about the Genes in Space program. As a bonus he, and the miniPCR, got to co-pilot a glider. It wasn't the highest miniPCR has flown, but it was the first time it sat in the cockpit.
iLead schools, who hosted one of the workshops, is a group of charter schools operating in Southern California with a focus on project-based learning. The Director of STEM initiatives at iLEAD, Kathleen Fredette, happens to also be in the final steps of training to become a glider pilot. As part of a six week trans-curricular project-based learning experience, iLEAD eighth-graders took math and physics to the real world by learning to pilot a small aircraft. As a culminating experience, students traveled to the Southern California Soaring Academy, where they had the opportunity to co-pilot a glider with a trained flight instructor.
Kathleen thought it would be a good idea to give Bruce a chance to join the iLead eighth graders, despite his having no flight training and only some rudimentary physics knowledge he had mostly forgotten. After one session on a flight simulator, which included a very sketchy landing, Bruce hopped into the cockpit to try his hand in actual flight. Kathleen's husband, also a trained pilot, took Bruce up for some amazing views of the San Gabriel Mountains and a distant Edward's Airforce base. After taking a few shots of the miniPCR in flight, Bruce managed to pilot the glider in some large circles and figure eights. In the real glider, Bruce was not at the control for the landing, and things went much more smoothly.
For Bruce it was his first time in Southern California, first time in a glider and first time as a co-pilot – not a bad day.
