Revision as of 22:24, 2 August 2010
This Wiki is meant to be a starting point for expanding upon the Troubleshooting Cisco 3900 Series, 2900 Series, and 1900 Series ISRs document. It starts at a very high-level of troubleshooting, mainly as a resource to other online sources of information. It's hoped that over time, the granularity of information will increase.
General Problem Solving
The key to problem solving is to isolate the problem to a specific subsystem by comparing what the router is doing to what it should be doing. The LEDs on the router aid you in determining router performance and operation. When solving problems, consider the following router subsystems:
- Power and cooling systems—External power source, power cable, router power supply, circuit breaker, and router fan. Also check for inadequate ventilation or air circulation.
- Interface cards—LEDs on the interface cards help identify a failure. (3900 and 2900 LEDs 1900 LEDs).
- Cables—External cables that connect the router to the network.
Troubleshooting the Power and Cooling Systems
Both the system LED and the fans can help you troubleshoot a power problem. Check the following items to help isolate the problem: Both the system LED and the fans can help you troubleshoot a power problem. Check the following items to help isolate the problem:
Normal Indications
With the power switch on, the normal indications are:
- SYS LED on, green, and continuous
- Fan operating
Fault Indications
This is a condensed listing of LED states. For the complete listing see "Chassis LED Indicators" (3900 and 2900 LEDs 1900 LEDs).
Check the following symptoms to locate or eliminate faults in the power and cooling systems:
- With the power switch on, is the SYS LED on green?
- If the LED is green and continuous, the router has booted and the software is functional.
- If the LED is blinking green the system is booting or in ROM monitor mode.
- If the LED is off the system board is faulty.
- If the LED is amber, check for a system error.
- With the power switch on and the SYS LED on and green, does the fan operate?
- If no, check the fan.
- If yes, the power system is functioning.
- With the power switch on and the SYS LED off, does the fan operate?
- If yes, the router is receiving power. The fan is connected directly to the DC outputs of the power supply.
- If no, check the power source and power cable.
- Does the router shut down after being on a short time?
- Check for an environmentally induced shutdown.
- Check the environmental site requirements in the "Router Environmental Requirements" (Cisco 3900/2900), and "Site Environment" (Cisco 1900).
- Router partially boots
- Check for a power supply failure by inspecting the SYS LED on the front panel of the router. If the SYS LED is blinking or continuously green, the power supply is functional.
- If the SYS LED is not on, refer to the "Submitting a Service Request" for warranty information, or contact customer service.
- SYS LED on, green, and continuous
- Fan operating
Environmental Issues
If the router is operating at an abnormally high temperature, consider the following causes:
- Fan failure
- Air conditioner failure in the room
- Air blockage to cooling vents. See the "Airflow Diagrams and Chassis Ventilation" (Cisco 3900/2900, Cisco 1900).
Take steps to correct the problem. Refer to Refer to "Preparing for the Installation" (Cisco 3900 and 2900 Series Routers) and "Preinstallation Requirements and Planning" (Cisco 1900 Series Routers)
Troubleshooting Cables, Connections, and Interface Cards
Network problems can be caused by cables, cable connections, or interface cards, or by external devices such as a modem, transceiver, hub, wall jack, WAN interface, or terminal. Check for the following symptoms to help isolate the problem.
- Card is not recognized by the router.
- Make sure that the card is firmly seated in its slot.
- Check the LEDs on the card. Each card has its own set of LEDs. For information on these LEDs, refer to Cisco.com online support for the individual card.
- Make sure that you have a version of Cisco IOS software that supports the card. Check the Cisco.com online support document for software requirements for the interface card.
- Card is recognized, but interface ports do not initialize.
- Make sure that the card is firmly seated in its slot.
- Check external cable connections.
- Make sure that you have a version of Cisco IOS software and feature license that supports the card. Check the software requirements for the affected card, which can be found in the configuration note for the card.
- Router does not boot properly, or constantly or intermittently reboots.
- Make sure that the card is firmly seated in its slot.
- Check the router chassis or software.
- Router boots, but the console screen is frozen.
- Check the external console connection.
- Verify that the parameters for your terminal are set as follows:
- (a) The same data rate as configured for the router (9600 baud is the default)
- (b) 8 data bits
- (c) 1 stop bit
- (d) No parity generated or checked
- Router powers on and boots only when a particular card is removed.
- Refer to "Submitting a Service Request" for warranty information, or contact customer service.
- Router powers on and boots only when a particular cable is disconnected.
- There may be a problem with the card or cable. Refer to "Submitting a Service Request" for warranty information, or contact customer service.
- Check that only one console cable is connected. Either a USB console or RJ-45, but not both.
ROM Monitor Jumper Settings
If a ROM monitor failure occurs, you may need to change a jumper setting on the motherboard so the router can boot for troubleshooting. Procedures for accessing the motherboard are described in "Replacing and Removing the Services Performance Engine" (Cisco 2900 and 3900 Series Routers). You may need to set one of the following jumpers on Cisco 3900 and Cisco 2900 ISRs:
- DUART DFLT—Sets the console connection data rate to 9600 regardless of user configuration
Change this setting if the console displays garbage characters. The jumper forces the data rate to a known good value.
- BOOT DFLT—Boots from the read-only boot image in case an upgrade is corrupted
Change this setting if the router consistently hangs or crashes after a ROM monitor upgrade. If you change either of the first two settings as shown, the router stays in the new configuration during subsequent power cycles and the jumper can be removed.
Note: The jumpers are not needed to troubleshoot Cisco IOS problems. If the Cisco IOS software becomes corrupted, remove the CompactFlash memory card to force the router to boot in ROM monitor mode.
Change these settings only after consulting with your service representative or Cisco technical support.
Console Port Baud Reset
When the button is pressed during power on, ROMMON resets the router to the default console port configuration. Baud Reset Button on Cisco models 1905/1921:
Wireless Reception
Wireless communication is dependent upon the propagation of radio waves. Many environmental factors influence radio waves. The Cisco Multiband Swivel-Mount Dipole Antenna document Installation Notes section describes factors affecting this.
LED Indicators
The LEDs enable you to determine router performance and operation. There are chassis, service module, network module, and network module adapter LEDs.
Chassis LEDs
(3900 and 2900 LEDs 1900 LEDs).
Service Module, Network Module, and Network Module Adapter LEDs
Service Module, Network Module, and Network Module Adapter LED Indicators.
System Messages
This section describes system error and recovery messages that may appear when a Cisco 1941 router is operated. The Cisco IOS software displays system error and recovery messages on an external device console terminal screen.
The terminal should display one of the following prompts:
Router> (indicates the user EXEC command mode)
Router# (indicates the privileged EXEC command mode)
The Cisco IOS software checks the system condition once every 30 seconds. If a condition still exists, the error message is displayed again; if the error condition has cleared, a recovery message is displayed.
|Error Message
|%ENVMON-3-FAN_OK: Fan <fan-number> functional now
|Explanation: The cooling fan within the chassis is working.
|%ENVMON-3-FAN_FAIL: Fan <fan-number> is malfunctioning
|Explanation: The cooling fan within the chassis is not working.
|%CFG-3-CARD_NOT_SUPPORTED: Slot <n>. <Card identification from cookie, including at least card type, version, revision, and serial number>
|Explanation: The card found is not recognized or is not supported in the specified slot. Check the feature license to be sure it is enabled.

A Butler County woman accused of fatally shooting her husband last fall at the couple's camp has changed her mind about pleading guilty to felony and misdemeanor charges in the case.
Ruth Maxine Angert, 58, of Clearfield Township pleaded guilty in May to charges of attempted aggravated assault and involuntary manslaughter.
State police said Angert shot 68-year-old Larry Angert with his own .38-caliber revolver during an argument Nov. 17 at their camp in Tionesta Township.
The defendant told investigators her husband pushed her to the floor and grabbed her neck. She claimed she grabbed the revolver and that it fired, hitting her husband in the cheek as they struggled for the gun.
The judge allowed her to withdraw her plea.
The judge advised the prosecutor in the case that the prosecutor could refile homicide charges against the defendant.
Angert, who was not present at the hearing, remains in Warren County Jail without bail.

Erotic Massage Buckroe Gardens VA 23664?
A bit more than the usual yr in the past I printed a summary of Korean Therapeutic massage Parlors in Ny Metropolis following a number of visitors requested for it. Of course that report was a well known 1, with lots of individuals commenting around the publish as well as much more studying it (a minimum of based on my figures). With a lot of sights it had been to become anticipated that some fault could be discovered using the publish. 1 problem talked about was which i only outlined therapeutic massage parlors working in Manhattan. Forgetting that for me, and lots of other people, Manhattan is "the metropolis," I'm able to only state that I was not attempting to publish a whole and last listing of each therapeutic massage parlor within the 5 boroughs from the Ny. I most likely would not assemble this type of checklist even when I could. Which delivers me towards the other problem introduced up on that publish: the disappearance or relocation of various therapeutic massage parlors in final year's checklist.
Asian therapeutic massage parlors arrive and go, open up and shut, alter proprietors and transfer about. This really is merely the character from the beast, particularly in the type of environment that presently exists within the Land from the Totally free. Beyond regularly examining in on each look around city, sustaining a totally present checklist could be difficult to complete. What I'm able to do is publish an up to date checklist according to the knowledge I've these days. Optimistically, I'll carry on to complete this on the relatively normal foundation for so long as it's demanded. Once more, make sure you be aware which i am not recommending or advertising any from the retailers on this checklist to anybody. I'm merely passing around the get in touch with info I've acquired.
Visitors might also have an interest within an previously publish describing how Korean therapeutic massage parlors usually function in a few depth. As usually your mileage might differ. Magic formula Diary - This store was the very first outlined on final year's checklist. It experienced just opened once i produced that report and it carries on to function these days. Using the typical revolving employees, Magic formula Diary appears to entice a few of the very best ladies within the company. When they can entice ladies in the leading in their sport they need to be performing some thing correct.

The Olympic champion sat down for an interview Friday with the Kirksville Daily Express.
U.S. Olympic champion Shawn Johnson visited Kirksville and Truman State University for a speaking event Friday. Afterward, she sat down and shared thoughts on her future, the state of her sport and more with the Kirksville Daily Express.
Tell us about what you're doing right now?
I'm doing a bunch of different things. I've kind of been taking some time off to reinvent, so to speak, myself outside of gymnastics. I'm working on a bunch of gymnastics clinics, camps, competitions, that we're going to be touring with. I'm pretty excited about it.
I'm working on going to college and working on a gym, but everything else is kind of new, up in the air, hopefully working on some potential show ideas for the Rio Games and make a presence there.
You're talking about Vanderbilt for college. What do you want to study?
Sport psychology and dietetics, or nutrition.
What are your goals with that?
I want to start a company and implement a program that offers a kind of 'Big Sister,' a mentor, to young female athletes. I would say gymnasts, dancers, cheerleaders, ice skaters, it goes across the board, where they have someone to confide in, but who also has the knowledge and backing behind them to direct them and guide them in what they're doing.
I know in my career, USA gymnastics, there's nothing offered as far as psychology or nutrition goes, and it's a huge, important part of your sport. If I can be that for girls, then I think we can give them the right path and direction to go.
You've done so much in your life already, been to so many places. With the passage of time between the Olympics and Dancing With the Stars, do you start to have a different appreciation for all that you've had a chance to do?
Definitely. Now that I've had a little more time to breathe, so to speak, I definitely look back and see that I have led a whirlwind of a few years. It's crazy to think about all I've done and it's even crazier to think it's just like Chapter 1. I'm just starting.
It is a blessing. It's surreal.
You talked about the reaction you got from the media and people in general after the 2008 games. Has that reaction changed over the years?
Definitely. It's funny to see the reaction now. People are like, 'You're the girl who won at the Olympics.' I'm like, no, but yes, and thank you. It has changed. I think it changes with respect of how you handle yourself. I think had I handled it completely differently and been devastated on a public stage, it would have been different.
Gymnastics is a centerpiece of the Olympics. It captivates the nation every four years. In those gaps between, it doesn't completely disappear, but it certainly doesn't garner the same attention. Do you feel your sport has the level of respect it deserves?
Not at all. The amount of respect people give to our sport once every four years is what I think we deserve every day. You're talking about some of the youngest professional athletes across the world. They're putting in 40 hours a week at the age of 10 to compete on an international stage for the country, and we only really get that acknowledgement one day every four years.
I'm biased, but I would say every single day I wish we had an NBC segment on what we're doing in the gym. It's a very, very demanding sport on young athletes. I think it needs more coverage.
For you, now that the Olympics have passed and Dancing With the Stars is over, do you feel like you've stepped out of the public eye and are able to live a more private life?
I would say yes, but when I walk into a grocery store and I'm still noticed by everybody, it's hard to say that, but I'd say it's slowing down a little bit. I'm not on prime time TV every night anymore, but it's definitely picking up in other areas. Again, you never know what the future holds, especially in a career that is different every day, but maybe later on, down the road, I'll be back on TV or just go into hiding. I'll never know.
How many speech events like this have you done?
I've probably done eight or so in the last couple months. I've done quite a few in the last couple months, but 20, 30 over the past few years. Quite a few.
What do you, personally, take away from them?
I'd say being on a stage, on a platform, on a pedestal. I read everything. I read what people think I am. They think they know who I am. It's gratifying to me to be able to share my story and to maybe impact one or two people out of an audience of a few hundred, but even more so than that I like people to genuinely get a chance to know who I am, to see that who I am doesn't match up with what everybody says and maybe they don't believe everything people write. It's a way to be more human.
You spoke to an audience tonight of mostly college students. If you had the opportunity to speak to an audience of kindergartners, what would your message be to them?
To work hard and have fun, especially when you're talking to kids. I talked about it in the speech, not enough emphasis is put on having fun anymore, it's all about working to succeed and being the best. I think kids need to have fun.
Have you had fun?
I have. I've had a blast.

It was an eventful year nationally and internationally, even without the end of the world that some predicted. But there was no shortage of big news locally, between disasters both natural (the drought) and manmade (Kansas redistricting). Here are a few of the stories that made headlines plenty of times here:
It was an eventful year nationally and internationally, even without the end of the world that some predicted. But there was no shortage of big news locally, between disasters both natural (the drought) and manmade (Kansas redistricting). Here are a few of the stories that made headlines plenty of times here: Redistricting — Following the release of the 2010 Census, state and local officials alike began to work on redrawing political boundaries at all levels — county, city, state and federal — based on the distribution of the new population numbers. It was easy in some cases — officials at the local level passed new maps with few problems — but easier said than done for the state Legislature. Just before the process was turned over to the courts when the stalemate made Kansas the last of the states to set new boundaries, each chamber approved their own proposals, including one that would have moved Leavenworth County into the "Big First" congressional district that includes most of the western portion of Kansas. Whether or not Leavenworth County should have its own state Senate district was also up for debate. Election — The painful and hard-fought redistricting battle led to a wave of filings of some seasoned candidates and some political newcomers. It also led to one unique situation here, with House Rep. Melanie Meier challenging incumbent Rep. Jana Goodman for the 41st House district seat following Meier being redistricted out of the 40th, which she had previously represented. The elections Nov. 6 proved Meier to be successful. And when the session begins in January, there will be new faces in the 40th District, the 5th State Senate District, the 3rd District County Commission seat and, for the first time in nearly 30 years, the Lansing mayoral spot, which went to Lansing City Councilman Billy Blackwell. Lansing Bond — Spurred by historically low borrowing rates and construction costs and the endangered nature of the state's aid for bond and interest payments, the Lansing School Board proposed and promoted a $73 million bond issue to build a new high school with athletic facilities and renovate the existing high school to accommodate the middle school, leaving the existing middle school to serve as an intermediate school, relieving some of the enrollment pressure felt in all three existing schools. Despite a price tag higher than the first estimates, the voters approved the issue, giving it 52.8 percent of the votes. The high school is expected to open in 2015. Drought — Much of Kansas remains starved for moisture, months after a near-record-setting summer. Prolonged heat and scarce rain wreaked havoc on first corn, then soybeans and now wheat. Officials also urged caution during Fourth of July activities, warning that dry weather had turned grass into a tinderbox. Numerous brush and grass fires kept fire departments busy around the county, including a fire thought to be started by a discarded cigarette that scorched 420 acres over two days in western Leavenworth County in August. Hotel development — In January, Leavenworth city commissioners approved a deal to purchase the remaining parcels needed for a hotel development. City officials had been working for more than a year to acquire all of the land needed for the proposed hotel at Fourth Street and Metropolitan Avenue. Since the remaining parcels have been acquired, the city has met various conditions of an agreement with the hotel developer including having the land graded. With the city's work completed, the developer was given a 120-day inspection period, which has not yet expired. Under the city's agreement, JCJ Land Partners will purchase the site for $520,000. The developer plans to build a Marriott brand hotel. Fire chief — There was shake up in November in the leadership of the Leavenworth Fire Department. Mark DeMaranville was removed as the chief, but he has remained with the department as a health inspector and safety officer. Mark Nietzke, who had been an assistant chief, was named the acting chief. At the time, a city spokeswoman said the changes were the result of an ongoing personnel issue and she couldn't provide additional details. DeMaranville had returned to duty in early October after being injured during a Sept. 5 motorcycle accident northwest of the city. The results of a blood alcohol level test that was conducted as part of the accident investigation have not been released. A report about the accident was forwarded by the Leavenworth County Sheriff's Office to the Leavenworth County Attorney's Office for review. The County Attorney's Office is still investigating the matter. Fireworks death — A man was killed in an explosion following the city of Lansing's annual July 4 fireworks show. Andy Jones, 44, Lansing, was a volunteer with crews that were disposing of fireworks that had not discharged during the show, which was held at the Kenneth W. Bernard Community Park. One exploded near Jones, who was pronounced dead at the scene. The explosion occurred after the spectators for the fireworks show had left the park. 911 pocket call — Two Leavenworth men were arrested in March for drug crimes after one of them accidentally called 911. Jesus D. Santos and Jesus E. Suarez March 1 after the Leavenworth Police Department received what was described as a pocket dial 911 call. The dispatcher could hear what sounded like two people arguing. Police were able to locate the source of the call and met with the two men in the 100 block of South Seventh Street. As they were preparing to leave the scene, police officers found what they believed to be crack cocaine in individually wrapped bags. The substance, which tested positive for cocaine, was found under the bumper of a car the two men had been in when officers arrived. In September, Suarez was sentenced to more than 14 years for crimes related to the March 1 incident. In November, Santos was sentenced to six years in prison. He was sentenced to two years for a drug charge related to the March 1 incident and an additional four years for having his probation revoked in three other cases. Baby left in alley — A Leavenworth woman was arrested May 3 for allegedly leaving her infant son alone in an alley. Elizabeth A. Michaud has been charged with aggravated endangering a child but her case has not yet gone to trial. Authorities believe Michaud was under the influence of drugs or alcohol the night of the incident. Police have estimated that the baby was in the alley for at least three hours before he was found in a stroller by an area resident. Carnegie closes — After 25 years of service in promoting education in the fine arts, the Carnegie Arts Center in Leavenworth closed its doors at the end of June. Housed in the city's first dedicated library building constructed through funds donated by steel magnate and philanthropist Andrew Carnegie, the facility itself had incurred massive maintenance and repair costs, while economic struggles depressed enrollment in the center's music, dance, drama and art classes. In keeping with the center's original agreement with the city, ownership reverted to the city once the arts organization moved out. No firm plans have yet been established for the center on Fifth Street.

Cape Gannets fight over a herring
Over the years, the scientists have noted the sardines are not the only fish to move up the coast. The biomass of herring, particularly the "Red Eye" herring (Etrumeus teres) was astounding in numbers but an abundance of "Big Eye Red Eye" herring (Etrumeus whiteheadi) were very present as well. To top off, mackerel (Scomber japonicus) were also on the table as we found out in July. So really, the name "Sardine Run" is a bit of a misnomer since the presence of at least 5 different species of fish move up with the currents. The sardines, however, are the only fish to hit the beaches of Kwa Zulu Natal, where the netting of Sardinops sagax is a big business. I had daily calls from seine netter friends to find out the movement of the sardines.
Strangely, it is possible due to the abundance of food that for the first time, I did not see the common dolphins (Delphinus Capensis) gather in superpod numbers (thousands). We did have a few pods of 700 or so, but I did not see the big thousand + gatherings nor did I hear anyone else do so. Another missing element was the Cape Fur Seal (Arctocephalus pusillus), which usually pop up north with big storms. Even the number of gannets (Morus capensis) were lower than before. There are reports that the seal, penguin and gannet populations did drop with the unusual weather further south.
I furthered the gannet population decline with the dubious honor of being the first diver on the sardine run to be hit by a diving gannet. I was using a 3 liter pony bottle in shallow water on a very small baitball of maybe 200 E. Whiteheadi. There were only 2-3 gannets diving on the ball with a few dolphins charging infrequently. As I settled in to shoot at about 4m, suddenly armagedon occurred as many gannets suddenly dived on my baitball and created a bubble veil so thick I could not see 2 feet in front of me. The agitation from the birds diving caused the sharks to frenzy and they charged up into the ball from below, bumping my fins and legs while my vision was limited. I turned to face the sharks and had my back to the surface. The silver tank plus the bubbles made it so that even a gannet could not differentiate a tank from a fish until it was too late. I heard and felt a thunk and turned around to see a bird swimming away frantically. I was too busy pushing off sharks to register what happened. It was only afterward when other people noticed a gannet with a broken jaw did it click that was the bird that hit me earlier. Everyone from Thomas Peschak to Jean Tresfon had a pic of the dying gannet. A dubious honor for me indeed!
Black tip shark (C. limbatus) stalks the mackerel. Note how small the 2m shark looks against the big mackerel
Every year, the run surprises with a new development. This year, I saw the biggest baitball of mackerel (Scomber japonicus) ever. I'd seen very small baitballs before and they seemed to be a favorite of the sharks and dolphins due to size. The gannets aren't as big fans as the fish is powerful and big enough that the gannets have difficult catching and swallowing them. I saw gannets hitting the mackerel with deadly accuracy only for the fish to drive out of the beak of the gannet. It's always interesting to see how prey and predator react to each other and the big mackerel baitball showed how much hard work the sharks and gannets have to do and how crucial the common dolphins are in creating a tight baitball so they can feed.
A redeye escapes the clutches of a gannet's beak
Another new observation for myself is the common dolphin's training baitball. We came upon a small baitball were only baby dolphins and their mother would hit. They would back off when divers approached the ball but continue to hit the fish once the diver backs off. This year it seemed the dolphins were really training the young on the run whereas it was only theorized before. I'll continue my observations in part II, which will include a newly observed common dolphin hunting technique (with pics!) and more on the scientific side.
Bottlenose dolphin (T. truncatus) don't maintain the baitball like the Common dolphins do.
As with every year, the movement of bait fish is dependent on the water temperature and currents. This year, netting on the Kwa Zulu Natal coast didn't really happen until late June till mid-July. In fact, sardines were netted all the way past Durban at Umdloti even. So the siene netters had a pretty good year, albeit late and after a lot of thumb twiddling waiting for the fish. Only the Sardinops Sagax hit the shores, whereas the other baitfish seem to stay deeper. Nobody knows why but there's a theory that as the water warms up, the oxygen gets less so the sardines are forced up.
Seine netter Bobby of First Lite Fisheries storms out the river mouth to drop his net
The netting lasted about 1.5 weeks while we had sardine activity for just a few days. So how did the fish past us? They went pass with a cold North bound counter current we discovered one day while diving. This current was 14°C and traveling around 3 knots per hour. Our fish finder sonar found this current carried lots of fish past. The problem was that the common dolphin were not balling as usual. In fact, the number of common dolphins didn't seem that high and many were sub-adults. There was one day where sardines popped up in numbers. Unfortunately we had engine trouble and missed the activity on that day.
This baitball was thick with sharks
So the common dolphins didn't ball up the baitfish but just fed straight as we noticed them doing on numerous occasions this year. The dolphin fed on shad (Pomatomus saltatrix) and even anchovies on occasion. So plentiful were the herring and other baitfish that you'd see them feeding on the surface occasionally. It was also this year that we have to recognize the importance of the common dolphins in this entire food chain. Gannets would not dive in on the baitfish feeding at the surface without the dolphins (I've always called them the blondes of the sea, with their yellow head and blue eyes.) Or are they so in tune in this symbiotic relationship, many don't react to bait fish just meters away from them. Many times, they wait for the dolphins to come round to ball up the fish or they won't move.
The Common Dolphin (Delphinus Capensis) is an integral part of the food chain on the east coast of south africa.
When the commons did start a baitball, quite a few were gobbled up by the hungry Bryde's whales whose mouths just inhale small baitballs, infuriating all the other predators, including the humans who want to dive the balls. So disruptive were the Bryde's (they stamped out 6 baitballs on my count alone), there were curses of calling the Japanese to cull them. I sorta feel for the commons, who work very hard on balling up the fish only for some big mouth cousin to come and gobble it up.
The 'pesky' Bryde's Whale made things difficult for the spectators to enjoy the medium to small baitball spectacles
Not that I was complaining about their presence as such
As mentioned in Part 1, I photographed a newly observed hunting behavior exhibited by the common dolphins. Over the years, most of the red eye baitballs I'd been on have been Etrumeus Teres or East Coast Herring. This year, the biomass of Etrumeus Whiteheadi or West Coast Herring was impressive. We had 3 baitballs of these fish and this was when I noticed a different attack strategy by the commons. In redeye baitballs, because they tend to pack looser than sardines or mackerel, the dolphins would bubble net and charge through on the outside if the ball was big enough, otherwise they'd just attack in groups and try to single out the fish.
I did a 'dirty' count of all the baitballs (on video) I'd been in over the years and the dolphins were hitting maybe 40-50% on sardine baitballs and 30ish% on red eye baitballs.
A common dolphins picks off a mackerel on the outside of the ball to preserve it
Anybody who's seen the hundreds of hours of clips online/TV/film has seen how the commons always hit the outside of a sardine baitball to keep it intact. They charge through the loosely packed red eye baitballs or generally any balls which are small. However, I found on at least 3 different baitballs, they act as 2 separate groups whereby 1 group will charge from the bottom while another group leaps out of the water over the prey to attack from above. Baitfish tend to run to cover (hence it's not a good idea to be over a baitball lest they seek you out as cover and a predator charges through!), so are these dolphins creating a shadow to trick the prey? I can't say for certain since I only have 3 sequences when I finally realized what was happening underwater (you know, watching for behavior while looking out for sharks, photo op, depth, housing issues in cool waters isn't easy, unless you are Doug Perrine! )
Here you see how the dolphins are out of the water in 2 separate groups
As they enter into the water, they also try to pick off a stray fish
The action from topside
The other newish thing was the mackerel baitball we had near the end of the season. This was by far the biggest mackerel baitball anyone has seen in a long time. We had smaller pockets over the years but nothing like this. These fish were big, averaging around 20-25cm in length, thus making the predators look like little puppies. In fact, the usually accurate gannets had difficult holding on to the fish as they were powerful enough to escape their clutches. I saw many mackerel slip away from gannet's beaks through sheer power and speed.
This dolphin is 2m long yet looks like a sub adult because of the size of the mackerel
This particular baitball is of interest to scientists because it's been observed through stomach content analysis of common dolphins caught in the nets in KZN (under 10 a year!) that the diet has changed over the last 8 years from sardines to mackerel. This coincides with the apparent decline of sardine numbers overall in South Africa. The mackerel has similar energy to sardines in energy (fat) content, while the other fish aren't as high. Observing how well the sharks and dolphins hunted the mackerel, I could buy into the new theory. The gannets, however, aren't big enough to be as successful as with sardines and herring. This particular baitball lasted over 5 hours and we drifted with it for over 10km until the visibility went to crap. It's not all fun and games and I was aching the next day(or maybe it was the rugby!)
This big 2.5m Copper shark (C. Brachyurus) readies to strike the yummy mackerel.
The decline of sardine numbers have been attributed to over fishing in the Southern ocean of South Africa. Apparently the Western Cape sardine fishery has collapsed and now all the boats from the Western Cape has converged on the Eastern portion, where the sardine population which moves up the coast come from. With no real industry for herring and mackerel and no real data on the biomass available on the numbers of these other fish, it is suffice to say South Africa is facing the same problems the EU, North America and pretty much every part of the world are... the plundering of fish stocks! It may not be long before the South Africans follow the US folly of wiping out their sardine stock (and it still hasn't recovered!)
Will the predators be fighting for scraps while the big fishing boats wipe out stock?
Hopefully, with the scientific interest in this phenomena growing, due to the increase in tourism and awareness, there may be a way to avoid mistakes other countries have made in the past. Otherwise, we'll just have images to show our grand kids of what a spectacle the Eastern Cape of South Africa had.
I'll end off with a note about a few of the dive operators. This year, I saw more snorkelers than ever before, which in itself is already problematic as the snorkelers interfere with the gannets diving into the baitballs (more precisely the medium and small ones) and the sheer number of them also put off the other predators, especially when the baitball is small. Viewing the predation is probably the most spectacular sight there is but to interfere to the bait of inhibiting the predators from feeding isn't a good thing.
This gannet just swallowed a red eye herring and is looking for more!
A C. Brachyurus snaps up a mackerel
Baitfish tend to seek cover and snorkelers create just such cover with their shadow. So with the bait fish under them, the gannets can't dive. The operators who drop their snorkelers in do it because the visibility was so bad that scuba wasn't safe! They tend to pack their boats with up to 10 people so it becomes a mess of people:
Snorkelers crowd a baitball and basically destroy the predation by impeding predators.
Sharks also back off on smallish activity because of the scuba noise. HOWEVER, they will charge when there is disturbance at the surface... oh such as a splashing snorkeler with bait fish huddling under his/her belly. With bad visibility, a snorkeler won't be able to see the shark until it's really close:
Speaking with a few people from the other boats, briefings were abrupt and sometimes non-existent! Then you add safety policies of 5m visibility being conveniently forgotten when action is slow and conditions bad and it turns into an accident waiting to happen. It's sad but customer happiness does become more important than customer safety. It's already a very dangerous activity due to the proximity to hundreds of feeding sharks. Obviously humans aren't on the menu, but frenzied sharks charge and challenge (I was bumped silly on 2 baitballs, including one where I got a BIG clump on the head by a shark that I heard ringing for a minute!) So it's not an activity like a calm shark chum/feed. Then again it is nature at its most raw... well when it does happen.
There have been at least 3 serious injuries by shark encounters over the years, all in poor visibility. The first victim, Tony White, happened in 2002. He was snorkeling in dirty water when his right arm was bitten by a shark. I hope never to see that happen again but I fear with the inexperience and desperation of these operators to put the clients on baitballs to keep customers happy, often in very bad conditions, will drive the lack of safety protocols. Even attire was not properly managed (many divers were wearing bright yellow contrasty suits and fins). I don't wish to be Cassandrian but it's a matter of time before another serious injury occurs if things remain unchanged. So those wanting to do this trip, caveat emptor!
Gannets are amazing in their ability to dive down to 20m, snap up and swallow a fish or 2 before
using their buoyancy to surface.
There's a teaser video here.

"Otto Byars, of this city, is probably the champion corn husker of Audrain County. Recently Otto shucked ten days for John Byars, south of Benton City, averaging eighty-seven and a half bushels per day. After the corn had been shucked it averaged four and a half barrels per acre. Are there any other corn huskers or Woodrow Wilson Democrats in Audrain County that can turn Otto's face to the wall, when it comes to shucking corn? ... The South Side School basketball team took the first game of the season with the Central School, Friday afternoon, by a score of 16-12 at McMillan gymnasium. Both teams played an excellent game and showed good judgement for grade school boys. The line-ups were: South Side – Smith and Dearing, guards; Quisenberry, center; Lewis, guard; Moody, center; Kearns and Gregory forwards. Central School – Moore and Estes, guards; Quisenberry, center; Lewis and Rodes, forwards. ... A most important meeting of the members of the Commercial Club will be held at the luncheon Monday noon. This is an extra luncheon and should be an extra occasion. ... The people of Mexico should all be interested in bringing the Missouri Sunday School convention here next year. Mexico has a splendid reputation as a convention city and we are going to make it better than ever."

"Employment remained fairly stable for November, according to a report by Lloyd T. Tribble, manager of the Mexico office of the Missouri Division of Employment Security. The total number of unemployed in the office's active file was 572 at the end of the month, about the same level as in May and June but the highest since then. The active file in October dropped to 419. Last November there were 427 in the active file and two years ago there were 572. During the month 143 new work applications were filed, including 48 female applicants and 24 veterans applicants. By comparison the previous month had 163 new applications and in November of 1961 there were 148. Only 84 job openings were received during November, compared with 117 in October and 81 in November a year ago. Job openings unfilled totaled 31, compared with 33 in October and 26 a year ago. Mr. Tribble said his office filled 71 job openings, including two farm jobs. Other jobs were: Two professional and managerial, eight clerical and sales, 47 service, two skilled four semi-skilled and six unskilled."

"The advent of the holiday season signals a time of celebration for many, and Missourians are being encouraged to utilize a designated-driver program to help reduce alcohol-related traffic accidents. Gov. John Ashcroft recently proclaimed December as "Designated-Driver Month" to help increase public awareness of the program. Audrain County Sheriff Stuart Miller said "At any time of the year we ask that somebody be designated in a group not to drink to promote safety if a group goes out celebrating." He added that during the holiday season, the sheriff's department is promoting a "tie one on" campaign with a twist. The campaign – sponsored by Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) and the Missouri Division of Highway Safety – does not refer to encouraging people to drink, but rather that the department will have red ribbons tied to its left outside mirrors to remind people not to drink and drive during the holidays."

Springfield police believe two teens arrested Sunday for arson at 1120 N. Ninth St. were also responsible for starting a fire at 1132 North Grand Ave. E.
A 15-year-old boy and 14-year-old boy have been charged with arson, criminal damage to property and criminal trespassing in connection with the two fires. The names of the two teens are not being released because they are juveniles, police said.
Two other teens, who have been released to the custody of their parents, were charged with criminal trespassing and criminal damage under $300.
The fires erupted within roughly 30 minutes of each other about 2 p.m. Sunday. Springfield police arrested the teens near North Ninth Street.
Fire Chief Ken Fustin said the fires were started from the inside of each house. Both were vacant and had been damaged by prior fires.

A new 24-acre community park will begin to take shape across from Purgatory at Durango Mountain Resort this spring after receiving approval for a conditional-use permit from La Plata County Commissioners on Tuesday.
The park, to be on the east side of U.S. Highway 550 across from the resort, will include a handicap-accessible lake trail, picnic area, fishing docks and playground.
The $500,000 to $700,000 project is headed by Purgatory Metropolitan District, which encompasses all of the new development constructed as part of the Durango Mountain Resort Master Plan. The district will pay for part of the costs from its general fund, and it also will apply for grant funding from Great Outdoors Colorado, said John Reiter, district manager with Purgatory Metropolitan District.
The goal is for the park to become a launching pad to the exceptional wilderness beyond, Reiter said.
A single-track trail around the perimeter of Twilight Lake will be resurfaced with packed gravel and widened to at least 6 feet and fish will be reintroduced to the lake, according to the proposed plans. There will a picnic area with tables and a new playground that will cater to the communitys family-friendly appeal, the proposal said.
The district also plans to upgrade the existing Nordic Center at Purgatory to serve skiers in the winter and become a visitor center and multipurpose facility in the summer. Areas throughout the park will be revegetated with native grasses, plants and trees.
The metro district has been in the works for several years, and it was a requirement under the terms of the Durango Mountain Resort Development Agreement and the Trails and Recreational Uses Plan, adopted by La Plata and San Juan counties.
The land proposed for the park is currently owned by Durango Mountain Land, but the company is in the process of dedicating the property to Purgatory Metro District as per the development agreement.
Horse owners expressed some concern about sufficient equestrian parking near the Purgatory Flats trailhead, which is next to the park, but overall, there was broad support for the community park.
I am impressed that so many people showed up today and largely in support of this project, Commissioner Gwen Lachelt said.

DENVER (AP) Bill Forrest, a Colorado climbing legend who also made notable innovations in mountaineering equipment, died Dec. 21 while snowshoeing near Monarch Pass. He was 73.
A Salida resident who summited peaks and put up new climbing routes around the world, Forrest was remembered by friends as an indomitable spirit in the mountains who also was generous with advice to novices in his sport.
He was the best climber that I ever teamed up with, said Kris Walker, who in 1972 partnered with Forrest for the first ascent of the treacherous Painted Wall in the Black Canyon of the Gunnison River. The 2,500-foot climb on sheer granite took nine days. No matter how difficult or improbable the obstacle, he never quit. That word was not part of his vocabulary.
Bill was the only climbing partner I had that could stand by that achievement, said Walker, who lives in Bow, Wash.
In an April 2012 interview with The Denver Post, Forrest said at times he was nearly petrified by his sports risks. But he loved the challenge of pioneering routes; his 1970 climb on Longs Peaks east face was the first solo ascent of the Diamond.
I owned one guidebook but didnt like reading it, he said. I liked to scout my own routes.
William Edwin Forrest was born in Glendale, Calif. His family moved to Aurora when he was 6 years old. By the time Forrest was 8, his father, a surveyor with the Bureau of Land Management, was taking him into the field. Forrest ran trap lines as a child and first summited Longs Peak at age 12 with his Boy Scouts troop.
He began climbing in the Army, honing his skills while stationed in Germany. After the military, he spent time as a graduate student in English at Arizona State University.
But the mountains called, and Forrest answered.
As founder of Forrest Mountaineering, he pioneered the original Friends active cam-nut protection system, a climbing aid. He also was behind the Mjolnir, the first rock-and-ice hammer with interchangeable picks. It is on display in the Smithsonians Tools of Man collection.
He held 17 U.S. patents.
After moving to Salida in 1998, he created state-of-the-art snowshoes along with the Cascade Designs/MSR team.
He was snowshoeing with his wife, Rosa, when he collapsed. Other hikers performed CPR on him, but he died at the scene.
Forrest, who topped all of Colorados 54 Fourteeners, stopped technical climbing in 1993 after an attempt to summit Mount Everest. During the trip, he came down with amoebic dysentery. It nearly killed him, and the aftereffects plagued him for years.
Forrest mentored a generation of climbers, offering tips about everything from technique to fine-tuning gear.
I would always ask him to do a gear check before a backpack or Fourteener ascent, said Michael Rosenberg, an attorney and veteran climber. If he found something on which he thought I could improve, he would say so politely and often make a modification to my equipment in his shop.
Asked last April what climbing gave him, Forrest was quick to answer.
Just a lifetime of adventure, tremendous friends and a lot of self-knowledge, he said. Climbing, for me, is the finest sport in the world. Its a beautiful thing.
A memorial service will be held at 2 p.m. Jan. 13 at First Presbyterian Church in Salida.

Supporting local businesses so they can support our community.
This weekend is the Sts. Peter and Paul Home and School Auction, which offers you an opportunity to bid on all sorts of excellent Boonville products and services. The 6th grade class has put together a "Best of Boonville" basket which includes some fantastic items! It includes tickets to some of Boonville's most iconic events, including the Festival of the Arts, Pedaler's Jamboree and Warm Springs Ranch. It also includes a full assortment of gift certificates to area restaurants.
This huge array of items available at the auction Saturday is a testament to how important local businesses are to our community. Sherry and I spend a lot of time writing and talking about shopping local and this is yet another example- if we don't support our local businesses then they can't in turn donate their services or products to an auction, raffle, dinner, etc. which keeps our schools, sports teams, bands, food pantry, and all the other necessary social service agencies going. Having coordinated events myself, I am amazed at how quick businesses say, "of course, yes we will help."
How often do you say "of course, yes" to shopping here in Boonville? After all, this level of community support is a two way street- we need the local businesses to support clubs and activities, but we need local residents to keep their money right here with local businesses. It is our investment in their business: by buying groceries, appliances, electronics, shoes and gifts; using their medical, dental, veterinarian, accounting and legal services; and by eating in their restaurants, that enables them to say "of course, yes" when we ask them for help. Remember that before you pick up the phone and ask for a donation- ask yourself, have I contributed to this person's business and enabled them to say yes? If the answer is no- well you may want to rethink your request, or rethink your shopping/ service choices.
I know we can't always buy everything locally and that's okay. The challenge I have for everyone is simply to think "of course, yes I will start my search in Boonville first." This kind of commitment will keep all these great events, like this weekend's auction continuing in Boonville. Look in the paper, listen to the radio, or check the Go Boonville webpage to discover the next event that you will help support our community. There are some great ones around the corner! Shop Local, Play Local, and Go Boonville!

As part of National Small Business Week, the USDA Rural Development recognized Roscoe's.
ZIRCONIA— "This store means a lot to the community," U.S. Department of Agriculture Area Director Pam Hysong told four generations of the Green family Tuesday at the family-owned business Green's Six Oaks Mall, commonly known as Roscoe's, in Zirconia.
As part of National Small Business Week, the USDA Rural Development recognized Roscoe's, a business that took 14 months to rebuild after a devastating fire on Feb. 12, 2011.
USDA Rural Development provided a $400,000 Business and Industry Loan Guarantee that assisted with Roscoe's reconstruction to enable the popular store to be part of the community.
"This investment in (the) Green's store and partnership with Mountain 1st Bank is a fine example of the extremely successful partnership between USDA and our rural business and communities to improve economic development opportunities," Hysong said.
Owner Nancy Green is grateful to see her store brought back to life. Green and her husband, Roscoe, opened the general store in 1980.
"It's a good feeling," she said. "We enjoy our community. We are like a family."
She said Roscoe's supports the community and in return, the community supports the store.
"We want to provide services and goods that are hard to find in the area," Green said. "We try to give customers a little bit of everything."
Local business leaders and lawmakers' representatives were also at the ceremony Tuesday.
"Small business is extremely important to a neighborhood's character, as they provide many unique services and products that are vital to the community," said Bob Williford, president of the Henderson County Chamber of Commerce. "Because small-business owners typically live in the community in which they operate, they are often the first ones to support local nonprofits, little leagues and other community endeavors. In short, their heart belongs to their community."
Freddie Harrill, western regional liaison for U.S. Sen. Kay Hagan, said the USDA Rural Development is a blessing to businesses in small communities.
"Many times, they are the life blood for small businesses in Western North Carolina and across the state," Harrill said.
Tate Apodaca, a field representative for U.S. Rep. Mark Meadows, said he remembers visiting Roscoe's on the way to Lake Summit.
"You can't go to Lake Summit and not hop over to Roscoe's for some corn fritter," Apodaca said.
Gov. Pat McCrory proclaimed June 17-21 as Small Business Week in North Carolina, encouraging citizens to recognize the importance of small businesses and their owners.

SalishHawkFan wrote:Points per game being a pretty relevant category. And if you give this years team an extra 60 yards passing, they not only beat AZ, they probably don't have to win on a Hail Mary vs GB and maybe they pull it off vs the Rams.
Oh, and what relevant category did Wilson beat out TJack in at the first five game mark? I keep bringing it up, but no one gives any tangible evidence to refute it. Because they can't, it's irrefutable.
To label Wilson a worse quarterback than Tarvaris Jackson because he fell 60 passing yards short of making his 3-2 team 5-0 is ludicrous and smells of reaching, not analysis. Same with sticking to the first five games, which is convenient for your argument but hardly an adequate sample size or fair for a rookie QB.
To address your actual point, T-Jack averaged 6.0 ppg last year. Wilson is on track for the exact same number.
T-Jack had a .73 TD-turnover ratio last year. Wilson is at .71 right now.
T-Jack had a 60% completion rate last year. Wilson is at 63.2%.
T-Jack got sacked 2.8 times last year (18 times by Week 5). Wilson's at 2.0 (10 sacks), and don't tell me that pass protection has suddenly improved. We all know how inconsistent this line has been this year except for Unger. Our right side is awful.
T-Jack has Wilson's YPA beat by about 0.4, his sack yardage beat by about 1.0, and his YPG beat by about 43 yards (T-Jack had a whopping 206 YPG), all of which fall under the "gee, big deal" category and can be easily explained away with the coaching decisions. T-Jack also stuck religiously to the right side of the field, threw his receivers into collisions (Baldwin is still recovering from T-Jack), and stood in the pocket like a statue waiting to get sacked with the ball. Wilson does none of this. I'm really failing to see the big downgrade here.
