The vehicle in your driveway is head and shoulders above the rest compared to all the other cars, trucks, and SUVs in today's marketplace. GMC vehicle drivers have become used to a certain level of dependability when driving their P25/P2500 Van around town. Anyone who operates a GMC knows that when it comes to maintaining their vehicle only the highest quality replacement parts will do. When your GMC P25/P2500 Van was born, it was destined for a person with discerning taste who values longevity in their automobile.
The performance of your GMC P25/P2500 Van depends on a finely-tuned suspension. The main component responsible for controlled handling is a good control arm. All modern vehicles have independent front suspension, which means that control arms give way for each wheel to travel vertically as it needs to. And since the king pins have been eliminated from beam axle suspensions, your GMC P25/P2500 Van control arms use ball joints to pivot the spindle.
Bring your P25/P2500 Van back to life with the best repair parts from the experts at Car Parts Discount. Given all the hassles associated with repairing damage to your car or truck, let www.carpartsdiscount.com be the most authoritative website you go to make buying it easy.

WATCH: Hardwell Loses A Bet, Goes Skydiving
If you've never gone skydiving, I highly recommend it once in your life. I've been 4 times now. It is the most incredible natural rush you will EVER experience. Jumping from a perfectly good airplane from 13,500 feet, free falling for a minute at 130 mph, then spending 5-10 minutes canopied while enjoying the sights. Absolutely incredible.
Last year, Hardwell's friend bet him that he would become the #1 DJ in the World. And if he did, he would have to go skydiving…something Hardwell said he would never do.
Well, Hardwell was vote the #1 DJ in the World last year…and had to jump.

Thank you for recommending "". Your recommendation has been successfully processed.
Friend 1

Article Details
Date Revised: 5/5/2016
Applies to: modern pages, SharePoint 2016
For years, enterprises have been spending huge amounts of money and time building their intranet on top of the SharePoint platform. Intranets take lots of planning and development even to get the most basic of functionality. Throw in heavy branding and responsive design and you're looking at a significant investment. Launching a new intranet has just been too long of a process with too many technical hurdles, but things are going to improve.
Figure 1: SharePoint's new publishing experience will be responsive.
Microsoft has announced a new page publishing experience that will make a lot of publishing scenarios much simpler. It provides an updated page authoring canvas that allows for simple branding and page layouts while still having some extensibility hooks. Best of all, what you create here is responsive and works seamlessly with the new SharePoint app. Out-of-the-box you will be able to quickly create pages without a bunch of up-front configuration first. Remember what you had to do before? You know, create content types, page layouts, master pages, workflows, page libraries and more. Not to mention, Microsoft has been telling you to stop customize master pages for some time now. You want to go back to that?
A few years ago, you might have noticed that references to the actual term SharePoint were few and far between in Office 365. The only real entry point to SharePoint was through the Sites link in the app launcher. That's changing. The link will now say SharePoint and so will the navigation in the suite bar. Clicking on the link will take you to the new entry point or SharePoint Home, which pushes sites that you frequent right to the center. It also tracks sites you are following as well as provides links to other sites. This should make it easier to find many of the sites you need without an organization having to put a lot of thought into the information architecture. While it won't outright replace it. It's a great starting point for organizations who have never bothered to really set anything up like that.
Figure 2: The new SharePoint home experience will show recent activity.
Great! Keep doing what you are doing and customize the whole thing the way you used to. However, if your requirements are flexible, the first release may be just what you need. If you are looking for a simple page authoring canvas with little ramp-up, I think you are going to like it. I think this upcoming release will come close to hitting the "80%" mark where it's good enough to get people publishing content quickly and easily. If you have advanced needs and you find that you need something more, then you are probably going to have to go back to the conventional publishing model while you wait for new features to come online in future releases.
I have worked at a number of consulting companies and there is good money in helping clients build out elaborate intranets. Sure, a lot of that comes down to the planning and design, but the implementation was just overly complex. Just as Office 365 has brought features like Team Sites and Exchange into small organizations years ago, the new modern pages experience is making the intranet broadly available to smaller organizations. That's pretty exciting.
Figure 3: The new Modern pages experience
This is a tricky place to be in and your organization will have to make decisions about timelines. The new SharePoint Home entry will be here soon, but the modern page publishing features are further out in 2016. Although there is limited information right now. Try and take a look at your requirements and see if the new Modern pages experience will meet your requirements. If you don't think it will, than continue implementing your new intranet as usual and take another look at it in the future. If you think it does meet your requirements, then maybe take a step back and see what happens and use this as an opportunity to fully vet out your define phase. Ultimately, it comes down to your organization's priorities, requirements and timelines.
The future of SharePoint is bright. Today has taught us that Microsoft is continuing to invest in the product as a core. If you missed any of the announcements, be sure and read through them to find out everything that's coming.

What Are the Treatments for Epilepsy?
The majority of epileptic seizures are controlled by medication, particularly anticonvulsant drugs. The type of treatment prescribed will depend on several factors, including the frequency and severity of the seizures and the person's age, overall health, and medical history. An accurate diagnosis of the type of epilepsy is also critical to choosing the best treatment.
Many drugs are available to treat epilepsy. Although generic drugs are safely used for most medications, anticonvulsants are one category where doctors proceed with caution. Most doctors prefer to use brand-name anticonvulsants, but realize that many insurance companies will not cover the cost. As a result, it is acceptable to start taking a generic anticonvulsant medication, but if the desired control is not achieved, the patient should be switched to the brand-name drug.
Medications used to treat epilepsy include:
- Carbamazepine (Tegretol or Carbatrol)
- Diazepam (Valium) and similar tranquilizers, such as lorazepam (Ativan), Tranxene and clonazepam (Klonopin)
- Eslicarbazepine (Aptiom)
- Ethosuximide (Zarontin)
- Felbamate (Felbatol)
- Gabapentin (Neurontin)
- Lacosamide (Vimpat)
- Lamotrigine (Lamictal)
- Levetiracetam (Keppra)
- Oxcarbazepine (Oxteller XR or Trileptal)
- Perampanel (Fycompa)
- Phenobarbital
- Phenytoin (Dilantin or Phenytek)
- Pregabalin (Lyrica)
- Primidone( Mysoline)
- Tiagabine hydrochloride (Gabitril)
- Topiramate (Topamax)
- Valproate, valproic acid (Depakene, Depakote)
- Zonisamide (Zonegran)
The choice of drug is most often based on factors like the patient's tolerance of side effects, other illnesses he or she might have, and the medication's delivery method.
Although the different types of epilepsy vary greatly, in general, medications can control seizures in about 70% of patients.
Side Effects of Epilepsy Drugs
As is true of all drugs, the drugs used to treat epilepsy have side effects. The occurrence of side effects depends on the dose, type of medication, and length of treatment. The side effects are usually more common with higher doses, but tend to be less severe with time as the body adjusts to the medication. Anti-epileptic drugs are usually started at lower doses and increased gradually to make this adjustment easier. One of the best rules in medicine is to ''go low and go slow.''
There are three types of side effects:
- Common or predictable side effects. These are common, nonspecific, and dose-related side effects which occur with any epilepsy drug, which affects the central nervous system. These side effects include blurry or double vision, fatigue, sleepiness, unsteadiness, and stomach upset.
- Idiosyncratic side effects. These are rare and unpredictable reactions which are not dose-related. Most often, these side effects are skin rashes, low blood cell counts, and liver problems.
- Unique side effects. These are those that are not shared by other drugs in the same class. For example, Dilantin and phenytoin (Phenytek) can cause the gums to swell and valproate (Depakene) can cause hair loss and weight gain. Your doctor will discuss any unique side effects before prescribing the medication.
How Long Epilepsy Treatment Lasts
In some types of epilepsy, patients can be taken off treatment after a few years, while other types of epilepsy require lifelong treatment. With few exceptions, patients who are seizure-free for a certain period should be re-evaluated to determine whether the drug can be discontinued. How long the seizure-free period should be varies among the types of epilepsy and is controversial even for a given type. The decision to discontinue a medication also depends on more than the length of the seizure-free period.
What is clear, however, is that epilepsy drugs should at least be considered for discontinuation in patients who are seizure-free for 10 years. If a medication is going to be discontinued, it should be weaned gradually to avoid triggering a seizure.
Surgery for Epilepsy
Most patients with epilepsy do not require surgery. However, if seizures are not controlled after a trial of two or three medications (usually accomplished within two years) then re-evaluation is suggested. This information is critical in deciding if epilepsy surgery is an option. Of the 30% of patients whose seizures cannot be controlled with drugs, approximately one third (more than 100,000 in the U.S.) may be candidates for epilepsy surgery. However, only about 3,000 epilepsy surgeries are performed annually.
Before surgery is considered, a comprehensive presurgical exam is performed. This evaluation is performed to ensure that the operation will likely improve the seizures and will not cause damage to essential functions such as speech and memory. The evaluation requires prolonged EEG-video monitoring and other tests to pinpoint the exact location of the injured brain cells causing the seizures. The location of the damaged cells determines whether the surgery can be performed and what technique should be used.
The multidisciplinary evaluation is directed by a neurologist specializing in epilepsy (an epileptologist). A patient's eligibility for surgery is determined jointly by the neurosurgeon, neuroradiologist, neuropsychologist, social worker, and epileptologist. The decision to have the surgery is made jointly by the patient and the epileptologist after carefully reviewing the risks and benefits of the procedure.
Surgery is most commonly performed to treat partial epilepsy, since only one area of the brain is involved. During surgery, the area of the brain that triggers the seizures (usually a portion of the anterior temporal lobe) is removed. After surgery, some patients will be completely free of seizures; in others, the seizures will be better controlled. A few patients may need additional surgery.
Other surgical approaches are reserved for specific types of epilepsy and are most often performed in young children. One approach is to remove a large part of one side of the brain (a hemispherectomy); another is to cut the nerve fibers connecting the two sides of the brain (a corpus callosotomy).
Surgery is also done to implant devices. In vagus nerve stimulation (VNS), a device that electronically stimulates the vagus nerve (which controls activity between the brain and major internal organs) is implanted under the skin. This reduces seizure activity in some patients with partial seizures. There's also the responsive neurostimulation device (RNS), which consists of a small neurostimulator implanted within the skull under the scalp. The neurostimulator is connected to one or two wires (called electrodes) that are placed where the seizures are suspected to originate within the brain or on the surface of the brain. The device detects abnormal electrical activity in the area and delivers electrical stimulation to normalize brain activity before seizure symptoms begin.
Other Epilepsy Treatment Options
The ketogenic diet -- a high-fat, low-carb plan -- has received much attention lately and is effective for treating certain types of epilepsy. Specifically, it is used most frequently in children with seizures that have not responded to medical therapy. However, the diet requires careful planning and may be difficult to follow, so it is usually not recommended in older children or adults. The diet is usually started in the hospital, and when successful, it is most often maintained for two to three years.

First things first: Pokemon is amazing. Its classic formula – collecting and battling cute little monsters like so much electronic cockfighting – has been entertaining kids and serious gamers alike for more than a decade, but its last few iterations perhaps haven't innovated quite so much.
Pokemon Conquest changes everything.
The twist is simple; instead of playing a small child in a modern world, you play a young feudal Japanese warlord fighting for his homeland commanding multiple armies. The armies, of course, fight with pokemon, in pitched battles across complex terrain.
Battles are turn-based, and are tactically extremely rich, as there are roughly 200 hundred of the adorable little so-and-sos to collect, selected from all five generations, each with special moves, strengths and weaknesses. It might look like a children's game, but it has the feel of a particularly maximal version of chess.
There's plenty of game to get through, with a story campaign lasting up to 20 hours, and three times that in post-game content. The catch 'em all aspect is still present, of course, but it's no longer the be-all and end-all. Instead it's the hors d'oeuvres to a far deeper and more satisfying Pokemon experience.

Until a few years ago, credit scoring was primarily used to determine if you could be approved for a home loan. Except in subprime lending, your FICO score wasn't commonly used to determine what rate you'd be offered. Today, more often than not, your credit score affects your mortgage rate. According to MyFICO.com, borrowers with the credit scores in the 620- 639 range are offered mortgage rates 1.59 percent higher than those with FICO scores of 760 or higher.
How credit scoring affects your mortgage rate, continued. Credit scoring affects mortgage rates in different ways, depending on the program you choose. Here are the details.
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac implemented risk-based pricing back in 2008. Mortgage defaults were increasing, even for loans to the so-called "prime" borrowers with traditional "conforming mortgages" originated under Fannie or Freddie Mac guidelines. The government needed the mortgage giants to collect more fees to offset the losses. However, they didn't want to raise the cost of borrowing for all borrowers; they only wanted the riskier borrowers to pay more. That brought risk-based pricing to mainstream mortgage lending.
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac add surcharges to borrowers with lower credit scores, and these charges can increase with every 20-point decrease in credit score. There are eight tiers, ranging from < 620 to 740 or greater. Surcharges range from a .25 percent discount to a 3.25 percent add-on to the loan fees.
FHA, VA and USDA
Government mortgages do not use risk-based pricing. A VA mortgage to a veteran with a 600 credit score carries the same funding fee as one to a vet with a 700 FICO. FHA and USDA loans work the same way – whether the fee to the government is called a funding fee or an upfront mortgage insurance premium, it doesn't vary by credit score. However, a low FICO can still cause you to pay more for a government loan.
Government loans come with minimum guidelines that applicants must meet to be approved, but lenders can apply tougher standards (called overlays) if they choose to – and many do. In fact, industry insiders estimate that between 80 and 95 percent of mortgage lenders impose more restrictive guidelines than the government agencies do, and that borrowers who have fewer lenders to choose from because of those overlays are likely to pay higher rates.
Jumbo Mortgages
Jumbo, non-conforming and portfolio mortgages are not sold through Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, nor are they backed by the government. They may be purchased by investors or kept in the portfolios of the lenders that make them. Consequently, each group of investors or lender is likely to make its own rules. Here's a typical pricing adjustment from a jumbo lender:
- FICO > 800: reduce fees by .5 percent
- FICO 760 – 800: no adjustment
- FICO 720 – 759: Add .125 percent to fees
- FICO < 720: Add .5 percent to fees
The wild and wooly mashup of jumbo, non-conforming and portfolio mortgages means there is a lot more pricing variation across the board, and there is potentially more to be gained by shopping aggressively for lower mortgage rates in this category.

Today, the potential 2012 GOP presidential candidate is being hailed by the leader of the nation's oldest civil rights group as a "shining example" of a governor.
Why the change? Barbour on Wednesday decided to free two sisters who have been imprisoned on life sentences since 1994 on armed robbery charges. The plight of Jamie and Gladys Scott had long been championed by the NAACP. Gladys Scott was released on the condition that she donate a kidney to her 38-year-old sister, who requires daily dialysis.
In a statement, Barbour said, "The Mississippi Department of Corrections believes the sisters no longer pose a threat to society. Their incarceration is no longer necessary for public safety or rehabilitation, and Jamie Scott's medical condition creates a substantial cost to the State of Mississippi."
NAACP President Benjamin Jealous called Barbour a "shining example" at a news conference just a few minutes ago in Mississippi. He urged governors to use their powers to commute prison sentences or grant pardons to correct what he considers to be social injustices.
"We need more days like this in Mississippi. We need more days like this in this country," Jealous said, adding a special thanks to Barbour.
One organ donation expert said Barbour was wrong. "This is clearly a violation of federal law, which prohibits the exchange of 'valuable consideration' in return for an organ," Dr. Michael Shapiro, chairman of the ethics committee for the United Network for Organ Sharing, said in a statement.
Shapiro said commutation of a prison sentence would "clearly" fall into the category of "valuable consideration" under the law.
Barbour said the Mississippi Parole Board has accepted his advice that the Scott sisters "should be granted an indefinite suspension of sentence, which is tantamount to parole."
Barbour caught flak last week for telling The Weekly Standard that while growing up during the 1960s in Yazoo City, Miss., as many Southern cities were torn apart over race relations, that he didn't "remember it being that bad." In the same magazine profile, he also endorsed the actions of the white Citizens Council in his hometown for the way it dealt with the Ku Klux Klan.
He eventually issued a statement clarifying his remarks, saying the Citizens Council was "totally indefensible, as is segregation."

Yeah, I volunteered last year. The 'goody bag' was a joke. They were handing out the same stuff to general public for free anyway. The only thing in it that would have cost money was the (overpriced) programme.
Just as well that wasn't why I volunteered in the first place!

The Washington Redskins had success on the ground against the San Diego Chargers this past Sunday. Washington put up a total of 209 rushing yards, with Alfred Morris carrying the bulk of that load. We saw plenty of focus on the triple option and how that opened things up for the Redskins, but Kyle Shanahan had more than just the option up his sleeve. We saw a variety of different run-heavy personnel groups and formations that were used to keep the Chargers off balance. Deep in the red zone, we saw "Trey" and "Goal Line" personnel groups come on the field.
On all three of fullback Darrel Young's touchdowns, Washington elected to use its goal-line personnel (also known as 23 personnel; two backs, three tight ends).
This group includes zero wide receivers. The Redskins call for the two backs in Young and Morris along with all three tight ends. On these plays, they actually reported back up tackle Tom Compton as eligible, lining him up outside of left tackle Trent Williams. These plays were statements by Kyle Shanahan that told San Diego that he felt his team could beat them up front.
But Washington wasn't limited to run-heavy looks outside of goal-line situations. The Redskins went to their Trey personnel group (13 personnel; one back, three tight ends) early and often in this game. On Morris's touchdown run, we saw all three of Washington's tight ends on the field.
Here you can see Jordan Reed lined up outside Trent Williams, with fellow tight ends Logan Paulsen and Niles Paul outside right tackle Tyler Polumbus. Washington runs the ball behind the heavier side of the line, and behind the better two blocking tight ends.
Morris follows his blockers as they create a running lane for him to cut back into. Morris runs past the line of scrimmage untouched, and despite late efforts from the defense, he fights his way into the end zone for the Redskins' opening touchdown.
But to keep the Chargers from cheating to the heavy side of the line, Washington used the same personnel group to run counter plays.
This time, Reed motions back to the fullback position. Morris will begin his run to the heavy side of the line behind tight ends Paulsen and Paul, but will quickly cut back inside across the line behind Reed.
San Diego overcommits to the stronger side of the line, and leave a big lane for Morris to run into. Morris finds the lane easily and bursts through it to pick up 10 yards.
So now, the Chargers had seen Washington run the ball behind both the strong and weak sides of the line in run-heavy looks. This is where the fun began for Kyle Shanahan. Shanahan sent out the same personnel group into the huddle and even lined them up initially in a similar run look. Everything from the personnel in the huddle to the initial formation looked like a run play to the Chargers defense.
But then before the snap, running back Roy Helu Jr. and tight end Niles Paul motion out wide to receiver positions.
Suddenly, after looking like Washington would definitely be running the ball, they no longer have a running back in the backfield and have five receiving threats for the defense to cover. The defense is forced to make quick decisions; do they need to check out of a blitz, should they play man or zone, should they use a linebacker or defensive back to cover the two men in motion? All of these decisions have to be made in seconds as the ball is snapped quickly once the two players in motion are set.
In the end, Robert Griffin III overthrew Reed up the seam, but the play was there to be made. It wasn't just limited to the Trey group either. Washington used similar concepts out of their Tiger group (12 personnel; one back, two tight ends).
This time they opt to start Reed split out wide, with Pierre Garcon and Leonard Hankerson bunched together in the slot. Helu again motions out of the backfield to the outside.
Once again we see the Redskins spread out and the Chargers having to make quick, split-second decisions. This was a crucial third and six, which Griffin found Paulsen on an out route against man coverage.
It speaks to the versatility of the players the Redskins have on offense. Tight ends Reed and Paul can both split outside or in the slot comfortably. Paulsen has solid hands and can move around in the backfield. Helu's shiftiness is a threat all over the field, so splitting him outside as a receiver on some plays is always a viable option. The ability to go from a run-heavy look to a spread look in a matter of seconds can be a huge weapon for Kyle Shanahan and his Redskins offense. It's just one more thing for defenses to have to think about and prepare for.
Mark Bullock is The Insider's Outsider, sharing his impressions of the Redskins' play without the benefit of access to the team.
What's ahead:
● The Redskins practiced this morning at 10:30. Kyle Shanahan and Jim Haslett are scheduled to speak to reporters afterward.
● Mark Maske on the goal-line stand.
● Gene Wang's fantasy watch: What to make of Nick Foles?

Background: The bronchial vasculature serves important functions and is modified in a variety of pulmonary and airway diseases. The remarkable ability of the bronchial vasculature to undergo remodeling has implications for disease pathogenesis. However, there is very little information on normal bronchial circulation.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to obtain information on bronchial microvessels in large airways using a high-magnification bronchovideoscope.
Methods and patients: Recently, we developed a high-magnification bronchovideoscope (XBF-200HM3 [side-viewing type]) in cooperation with Olympus Medical Systems. This bronchovideoscope can provide information on the bronchial mucosa with a maximum magnification of 110 times. Between August 2000 and July 2004, 26 patients without abnormalities in the large airways were enrolled into this study. Patients underwent conventional bronchoscopy and subsequent bronchoscopy with the high-magnification bronchovideoscope. After the bronchoscopic examination, we calculated the vessel area ratios and hemoglobin indexes of images made with the high-magnification bronchovideoscope by using appropriate software. In addition, we compared the findings obtained with the high-magnification bronchovideoscope of the 26 subjects with microscopic findings of autopsied tracheas of two patients without abnormalities.
Results: Many ramifying subepithelial microvessels of large airways were mainly observed in intercartilage and membranous portions, whereas only a few microvessels were seen in cartilage portions. Histologically, these subepithelial microvessels were thought to be distributed within approximately 800 and 500 μm beneath the surface of the intercartilage portions and membranous portions, respectively. Vessel area ratios of the intercartilage portions were significantly higher than those of the cartilage and membranous portions. The hemoglobin indexes of the intercartilage portions were significantly higher than those of the cartilage and membranous portions, and these indexes were also significantly higher in the membranous portion than in the cartilage portion.
Conclusions: A dense concentration of subepithelial microvessels was mainly observed in the intercartilage portion, indicating an increase in submucosal circulation. This high-magnification bronchovideoscope is a useful tool for observing and evaluating the subepithelial microvessels in large airways.

Recently, Artificial Intelligence techniques have proved useful inhelping users to handle the large amount of information on the Internet.The idea of personalized search engines, intelligent software agents,and recommender systems has been widely accepted among users who requireassistance in searching, sorting, classifying, filtering and sharingthis vast quantity of information. In this paper, we present astate-of-the-art taxonomy of intelligent recommender agents on theInternet. We have analyzed 37 different systems and their references andhave sorted them into a list of 8 basic dimensions. These dimensions arethen used to establish a taxonomy under which the systems analyzed areclassified. Finally, we conclude this paper with a cross-dimensionalanalysis with the aim of providing a starting point for researchers toconstruct their own recommender system.

Modular CSS with SASS
Category: Tutorial
Today's websites and applications are larger than ever and a lot hinges on the CSS architecture. So CSS that is poorly thought-out can be a strain on development and maintenance in the long run.
In this course, we're going to build a UI toolkit using many of the best practices and principles of modular CSS architecture. We'll learn how a modular approach with Sass can boost our workflow and cut down maintenance by reducing the amount of code we write. It can also improve how our code scales because we're able to reuse it on other parts of our project.
What you'll learn
The patterns of BEM (Block Element Modifier) and SMACSS (Scalable and Modular Architecture for CSS)
Writing code that scales, no matter how big the project
Writing code that others can easily use and maintain
Writing CSS components that don't rely on context

Novel Solvent Systems for the Development of Sustainable Technology
Draucker, Laura Christine
MetadataShow full item record
Sustainable development in chemical engineering offers technical, industrially relevant solutions to environmental and economic issues. This work focuses on three specific issues; improving solvent selection and reducing costly experimentation, improving catalyst recovery while reducing reaction time, and producing commercial viable biofuels by cost effective pretreatments and valuable side product extractions. Novel solvent systems are a sustainable solution because they provide the ability to replace costly solvents with cheap, benign, and recyclable systems. Specifically, this work investigated the use of one novel solvent system, Gas Expanded Liquids (GXL).When a solvent is exposed to a gas in which it is miscible at modest pressures and temperatures, the liquid solvent becomes expanded, providing a unique tunable and reversible solvent with properties that can be much different then that of the solvent itself. If you apply this gas to a mixture of two liquids of a solid dissolved in a liquid phase, it can often provide a miscibility switch, aiding in separation, crystallization, and recovery of products or catalysts. In this work several different applications for organic solvents expanded with carbon dioxide were studied including miscibility switches for catalyst recycle, pretreatment of biomass for improved bio-ethanol production, and extraction of valuable chemicals from lignin waste in the pulp and paper industry. Solid solubility models to improve solvent selection and predict unique solvent mixtures during crystallization were also studied. The results reported here show promise for the use of GXL novel solvent systems and solid solubility models in many sustainable applications.

Article by Jerry Low
Geek dad, SEO data junkie, investor, and founder of Web Hosting Secret Revealed. Jerry has been building Internet assets and making money online since 2004. He loves mindless doodling and trying new food.
I'm glad to see Hostgator (one of my favorite hosting) back end support system is going thru a major overhaul. The overhaul project is to enhance Hostgator's current customer/billing system into an integrated billing, affiliate, chat, and ticket system known as 'Gator'.
Outsiders like you and me might not notice big differences before and after the upgrades but this project, according to Brent (founder of Hostgator) himself is desperately needed as current system is seriously lack of automation and inefficient. The folks at Hostgator are reported using ModernBill for billing, Kayako for tickets, LivePerson for chat, and a hacked up version of ultimate for affiliates (I was like "wow, that's lots of variation for a big company like Hostgator!" when I first knew this).
If you ever login to Hostgator's ticket system lately you should notice the changes as they are now running on a new interface. The new design is better in term of user friendly and looks more professional.
On top of its better outlook, the ticket system comes with a new functions where users get to rate the responses you get from Hostgator customer support team.
Hostgator ticket system control panel
For those who're not with Hostgator, here's a quick view on the new ticket system homepage:
So despite all the hoo-haa of the upgrades and back to the key question: What do all these upgrading works meant for us?
Well first, it shows that the company's will to improve and advance in the business. In other words, it shows that the company is serious about their business, thus is more 'trust-able' compare to other third-class reseller hosting companies.
The upgrades, according to Brent, will result in millions a year in savings and at least a 30% increase to staff productivity. If what the founder said is accurate then we can expect Hostgator's customer support will be much better than what we are having now (which is already top of its class in my opinion).
So, as long as the price of Hostgator remain the same, upgrades and improvement are always welcomed. I remain my rating with Hostgator and would definitely recommend them if you're looking for a reliable web hosting service.
Side note: This article is just an update on web host covered in W.H.S.R., to learn further in detail, read my Hostgator Review. Alternatively, you can visit Hosgator official website online to check out their service by your own.

The California sea lion is a shining example of successful conservation efforts. Hunted nearly to extinction by the late 1800s, these animals obtained legal protection in U.S. waters in the 1930s. This protection has enabled a strong recovery for this species, and as a result, the number of pups born each year has tripled since 1975.

Adam Caplan: hi all
<ramllov> Adam, should the Browns be planning on 2009 now?
Adam Caplan: RAM: Not yet but one thing is for sure, no way Anderson's roster bonus is picked up unless he starts to play better
<ribsnwhiskey> Is KWII just pissed about his testicles or did the Browns really try to hide the staph thing.
Adam Caplan: RIB: There's a lot that is behind the scenes there. I don't understand why they use the Cleveland Clinic in the first place with
the previous issues.
Adam Caplan: Are there other hospitals near there?
<LongLiveSipe> FYI Lerner's have given a LOT of money to the Cleveland Clinic. Have part of the hospital named after them. They won't switch.
Adam Caplan: LONG: Ahh, didn't know that. But as a player, he can go where he wants.
<markbucki> Adam will your chat be on XM radio now? or still just sirus
Adam Caplan: MARK: Sirius but you can get the best of Sirius
Adam Caplan: it's less than $10/month
<ramllov> Adam, Lane agreed with you about Beau Bell, not being ready and maybe not ready for the season. I say let him play against the run at ILB, let the other 10 defensive players worry about the pass. What do you say?
Adam Caplan: RAM: At some point he will start to get into the rotation but probably not until they are out of the playoff race.
<alzlvlolz> Adam, say the browns are losing to the Jags 17-3 at half. DA has another horrid 1st half say 6-17 60 yards? Does Brady come out?
Adam Caplan: ALZ: I was right on last week's game that they were going to lose by 3, I think they lose 23-17 this week.
Adam Caplan: As for Quinn, the problem is he's not getting enough reps in practice with the first team offense.
Adam Caplan: They really need to get him more so he can feel more comfortable.
Adam Caplan: Coming in cold like that is hard.
<BrownsBot> Adam, is it possible that Romeo Crennel only has one real eye and his vision doesn't extend to the entire field. So he can never
see where the balls that DA throws go?
Adam Caplan: BRO: Anderson's passes were actually a little short last week which was strange.
<mawebb31> Is Winslow a Brown in 2009?
Adam Caplan: MA: I still have to think so, way too talented to give up on him.
<BrownsGettinBetter> Adam, what are your impressions of Savage? He appears to be credible young up-and-coming GM, but now I have my doubts.
Adam Caplan: BRO: For the most part I think he does a nice job.
<WhosGonnaDriveYouHome> Adam will we EVER see Brady Quinn start a Game for the Browns?
Adam Caplan: WHO: I'm starting to think he will be the guy next year after the way Anderson looked last week.
<Cvillebrown> Do all of the offensive struggles fall on DA and Braylon?
Adam Caplan: CV: OL issues, running game inconsistency
<ramllov> Adam, How high on the off season list is a premier RT on the Browns Radar?
Adam Caplan: RAM: Shaffer is still decent and BTW, Joe Thomas has not played anywhere near the level he did last year.
<steelersblow> Hey Adam any word on Tucker for Sunday's game?
Adam Caplan: STE: He won't play unless he practices by Friday.
<BigDaddy78> Adam, why did we not see the creativity on the defense and offense like we did in the MNF game?
Adam Caplan: BIG: The D is actually doing much better of late.
Adam Caplan: The secondary still isn't always lined up correctly as I pointed out last year was an issue.
Adam Caplan: Run D is still an ongoing problem.
Adam Caplan: Not having Shaun Smith and Robaire Smith is taking its toll.
<WhosGonnaDriveYouHome> Adam what do you hear about the whole QB situation; I mean, it seems absolutely mystifying why it has gotten to this point. Seems like a rather easy call. Is there anything we could be missing here?
Adam Caplan: WHO: Until they start getting Quinn more reps in practice, I don't think they will change it.
Adam Caplan: They should change if Anderson is bad again.
<steelersblow> Adam how much longer do you think we will continue to see this positive effort from Rogers this season
Adam Caplan: STL: The one positive of all the free agent moves is Rodgers.
<kevinmackfan> When is Braylon getting suspended Adam?
Adam Caplan: KEV: For what?
<kevinmackfan> dropping passes running wrong routes
Adam Caplan: KEV: That's not suspendable, though I'll petition at the owners meetings for it.
<BrownsGettinBetter> Adam, let's be real, what are the chances that RAC returns next season? It has to be less than 40 percent.
Adam Caplan: BR: I'd say 60% actually.
<ramllov> Adam, What happened in Washington, what a mess!!!!!!!
Adam Caplan: RAM: Anderson had one of the worst games from a QB I've seen, Edwards regressed again.
<steelersblow> So do you think he will continue to perform like this even if we are out of the playoff race?
Adam Caplan: STL: My expectation is that once they are out of the playoff race, Quinn will be the QB for the rest of the way.
<BigDaddy78> Edwards admitted to "losing focus", isn't that reason enough to let him watch a spell or two?
Adam Caplan: BIG: It's very strange that's happening to him.
<DawgHowl> Adam: should Savage be on the hot seat along with Crennel?
Adam Caplan: DAWG: No, Savage wasn't the one that really wanted him from what I understand.
Adam Caplan: John Collins/Lerner move.
Adam Caplan: Savage agreed with it so they did it.
<WhosGonnaDriveYouHome> Adam: what kind of pro do you project Brady Quinn as? Anyone past or present he compares well with? Eli
Manning physically?
Adam Caplan: WHO: I think he could be like that with his upside but Quinn needs a lot of work.
Adam Caplan: The sooner he gets PT the better.
<DawgHowl> Adam: what happened between K2 and Savage, who is telling the truth?
Adam Caplan: DAWG: Winslow likes it with the Browns but Savage's weakest point is how he deals with issues outside football.
<brownbomer> If the Browns trade Edwards and Anderson, what do you think they could get in return?
Adam Caplan: BR: They won't be trading Edwards.
<mawebb31> Adam - why do you say Quinn "needs a lot of work"? Based on what evidence?
Adam Caplan: MA: Film study and talking to coaches and personnel evaluators.
<BrownsGettinBetter> Adam, some have said that Savage carries a Bible in one hand and a knife in the other. Any truth to that?
Adam Caplan: BR: LOL, I would say that there are some around the league that believe that.
Adam Caplan: BR: Where did you hear that?
<BrownsGettinBetter> Adam, a friend of mine worked in the Browns organization a few years back.
Adam Caplan: BRO: I can't really comment any further on that in this forum but trust me, people have their opinions on that subject.
<flounderou> do you think Quinn would fare worse than DA - lower than a 60 rating?
Adam Caplan: FLU: I'd rather see Quinn start to get more work with the first team.
<WhosGonnaDriveYouHome> Adam: I have been told by some in the know (insiders) that Savage is behind starting Quinn now, That surprised me. Do you really believe he is just as much for Quinn as DA?
Adam Caplan: WHO: From what I understand, he leaves it up to the coaches. He does give his opinion.
<LongLiveSipe> Adam, what is morale like in Jacksonville?
Adam Caplan: LONG: Better after their slow start.
Adam Caplan: Matt Jones I believe is going to play.
Adam Caplan: Players are usually suspended by the NFL by Tuesday.
Adam Caplan: So that way they don't start practicing.
<BrownsGettinBetter> Adam, what are the chances of Winslow in a Browns uni during the 09 season?
Adam Caplan: BR: I'd say more than 50-50
Adam Caplan: The thing is, they don't want to take another step back
Adam Caplan: There are no good TEs projected to be in free agency
Adam Caplan: next season
<flounderou> Adam, is it fair to say we need 2 new starting ILB next season?
Adam Caplan: FLO: I'd say at least one.
<WhosGonnaDriveYouHome> As you can tell Adam, Quinn gives us a ton of hope. We are very excited to see him play. Not meaning to flood you too bad but the Browns have created a fascinating situation. And confusing
Adam Caplan: WHO: I was impressed to a point with him in the three practices I saw at camp.
Adam Caplan: His preseason film apparently wasn't very good.
Adam Caplan: From talking to several NFL personnel guys I know.
<BrownsGettinBetter> Adam, what has been the biggest positive surprise thus far in the Browns' season?
Adam Caplan: BRO: Rogers I'd say is one.
Adam Caplan: and Hall for sure
Adam Caplan: He can really move.
<sfanScott> when you break down film, is it more review of practice film or game film?
Adam Caplan: SF: Game film
<flounderou> Do you think Williams has been battling the shoulder all season? maybe why he hasn't had the impact one thought?
Adam Caplan: FL: My suspicions may be correct, 4-3 ends tends to struggle at first in 3-4s
<BrownsBot> Adam, any feedback on the young secondary of the Browns from around the league? From my eyes they really seem to be coming around... minus Cousins...
Adam Caplan: BR: I think they are getting better.
<Burge22> who will sign tj whosurmama next year?
Adam Caplan: WHO: I'd take him in a heartbeat in CLE.
Adam Caplan: Solid possession WR, Edwards stretch the field.
<Burge22> will cinci let him walk?
Adam Caplan: BUR: Good question but it's more of does he want to be there?
<BrownsGettinBetter> Adam, have you heard that Edwards is really unhappy in Cleveland?
Adam Caplan: BRO: Nope. He's not going anywhere. Why rebuild again?
Adam Caplan: If they do that, they might has well fire the GM.
<mawebb31> Adam - Are the Browns better suited (personnel-wise) for the 4-3 or 3-4?
Adam Caplan: MA: 3-4
<MikeFromRochester> Adam, it is obvious DA doesn't have the temperament, poise and brains to be a top qb, why are they not putting Quinn
in there and Romeo must still go
Adam Caplan: MIKE: I'd say that has some validity, his release point has been really bad lately too.
<WhosGonnaDriveYouHome> Adam: is DA a brown in 2009
Adam Caplan: WHO: Ask me around week 12
Adam Caplan: I'll probably know then.
<BrownsBot> Adam: Does DA make you want to kick your dog as badly as he makes me want to kick my dog?
Adam Caplan: BRO: The defense has to be rebuilt, hard to see how they go with many of those players next year.
Adam Caplan: But it's heading that they won't pick p his bonus.
<mawebb31> Alex Hall & Kam Wimbley - more effective as 4-3 ends or 3-4 OLBs?
Adam Caplan: MA: 3-4 ends for sure
Adam Caplan: with their athleticism
<ramllov> Adam what will they do with the additional 10 million from DA and KW trades?
Adam Caplan: RAM: Who said they are being traded?
<Burge22> Who is coaching the Browns in 2009? Where has Jim Fassel been lately I like him
Adam Caplan: BU: Doesn't have a good rep around the league.
<alzlvlolz> Hopefully throw at TJ Whoseyourmomma or Terrel Suggs
Adam Caplan: ALZ: I'm told Suggs wanted significantly more than Freeney got.
Adam Caplan: Same agent ironically.
<redright> ADAM....just read your best available offensive players and your best available defensive players, who are the best available head coaches for 09?
Adam Caplan: RED: That's coming in two weeks.
<mawebb31> (Please don't say Brian Billick!)
Adam Caplan: ME: No way, prevent offense, lol.
<CyberEd> Adam if Quinn needs so much work yet after sitting for a year and a half then it would be safe to assume he was never worth his top ten draft status. Some had him top 5.
Adam Caplan: CY: No one had him as top-5
<ramllov> Adam, When are the Browns going to play Rucker?
Adam Caplan: RAM: They have no role for him, he's #4 on the TE depth chart
Adam Caplan: But once they are out of the playoffs, he could get into the rotation,
<DawgHowl> Adam: will Quinn start to see more reps with the first team and how much longer does DA have to play like garbage before BQ
gets a shot?
Adam Caplan: DAW: It wouldn't surprise me if he starts to get more reps soon. They have no choice.
<markbucki> does steptoe have a future?
Adam Caplan: MAR: #4 WR.
Adam Caplan: All: See you next week.

text: Last night I was happily building pyramids is the game Immortal Cities:Children of the Nile when the screen suddenly started to distort. It gradually grew wider and wider until both sides of the screen were well past where they were supposed to be. 'Weird' I thought and started checking to see what had gone wrong and if it could be rectified.. Unfortunately it seems my 9yr CRT has/ or is going the way of the dodo.. I can still use it but the sides of the screen are kinda scrunched up whilst the centre is still ok albeit a little fuzzy.. I've bought a new screen and should be here hopefully Monday. I didn't want a massive wide screen monitor to make my graphics card weep but just something that operated at around 1280x1024 and this seemed ideal...It's a 19'' LCD for £70/$140! http://www.aria.co.uk/Products/Displays/Monitors/TFT+19/19%22+Arianet+Value+LCD+Monitor+-+Silver?productId=34530

What you're seeing is 3 coats, each thicker than the 1st respectively. It glides on smoothly and doesn't dry unevenly, you might be frustrated with the lack of opaqueness though. It looks opaque in the bottle which is a bit misleading. With more patience and effort 3 coats can satisfy, or as I would suggest, a thin 1st layer of white nail polish to mute nail detail beneath then 2 coats of this. My only major complaint would be that it isn't a completely opaque polish considering that the range is available in "Regular" as seen above, and "Glaze" shades which are deliberately more sheer. Both the ones I purchased are the regular shades. Overall for Php 65.00 (USD $1.50) I think it's pretty good. What say you? ^v^
NOTD Mutya Polish in Party in Manila
It actually looks more pastel than fluorescent in this picture. Sorry bout the rough edges, I painted my nails at night and I was ever so sleepy, then I smudged my top coat, gah. In person, this citrus shade is a shocker. I purchased 2 bottles of Mutya nail polish in Tesoro's Boracay for Php 65.00 (yes they're distributed by Tesoro's which also has branches in Manila) one in a bright orange named Party in Manila and another a bright fuschia named Vinta which I will do an NOTD of next time.

View from the Heelstone
* Please note the images in this post, as explained below, were changed and the text slightly adjusted at 8.50pm on December 1.
Let's have a dispassionate look at the latest Stonehenge news. The Stonehenge Hidden Landscape Project (University of Birmingham and the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Archaeological Prospection) continues its geophysical survey. So what's new?
The press release is titled "Discoveries provide evidence of a celestial procession at Stonehenge", which is pretty much what all the journalists who reported it said (often just copying the release). It includes a "podflash" interview with Vince Gaffney, and there is a video visualisation of the theory here.
The Independent really went to town, using words like "extraordinary" and "massive", suggesting the discoveries might "turn the accepted chronology of the Stonehenge landscape on its head", and that "Stonehenge site's sacred status is at least 500 years older than previously thought". The project as a whole is going to "transform scholars' understanding of the famous monument's origins, history and meaning". Golly.
I couldn't see where all this came from, so I contacted the Birmingham University press office, who very kindly gave me some geophysics plots. As no other news media anywhere as far as I can see had used them, I thought it would be helpful to post them here, which I did. The press office later asked me to replace them with the lower resolution images below, which show pretty much the same thing, though the actual anomalies that are interpreted as prehistoric pits are harder to pick out.
I mostly leave it to others to look at these plots and comment on the interpretations (please do). What I will do here is describe what the Birmingham team found, and add a bit of context.
They pick on two geophysical anomalies, just south of the northern line of the Cursus. Here is the survey on its own:
And this is their interpretation, a triangle connecting the two pits revealed by the survey (at the top), and the Heelstone at Stonehenge (at the bottom):
Seen from the Heelstone, they say, the eastern anomaly is on an alignment towards midsummer sunrise, and the western is on an alignment towards midsummer sunset. (Assuming there are no obstructions, the eastern site is visible from Stonehenge; but the western site, as Gaffney says, cannot be seen, explaining their choice of a burning post in the video representation.)
These anomalies have not been excavated or cored, so we do not know what they are, or how old they are.
Antler from the west end of the Cursus has been dated to 3630–3370BC (1). The earliest known phase at Stonehenge is some five centuries later, at 3015–2935BC. The erection of the Heelstone is undated, but is generally assumed to have taken place at an early stage in the site's history, perhaps as early as 3000BC – though as my excavation there in 1979 showed, at that date (we're guessing these dates) the stone may have been standing a little bit north-west of its present site (2).
The press release gives this comment on the two anomalies from Vince Gaffney (project leader from the IBM Visual and Spatial Technology Centre at the University of Birmingham):
"This is the first time we have seen anything quite like this at Stonehenge and it provides a more sophisticated insight into how rituals may have taken place within the Cursus and the wider landscape. These exciting finds indicate that even though Stonehenge was ultimately the most important monument in the landscape, it may at times not have been the only, or most important, ritual focus and the area of Stonehenge may have become significant as a sacred site at a much earlier date."
The release also notes "a new horseshoe arrangement of large pits north-east of Stonehenge which may have also contained posts". No indication is given of which features this refers to.
A "previously unknown gap in the middle of the northern side of the Cursus", also noted in the press release, sounds like the gap that the English Heritage landscape survey (see below) found in 2010.
There are several other survey projects in the Stonehenge world heritage site, most still in progress.
Stonehenge landscape relationships geophysics survey
In June 2011 this project conducted a geomagnetic survey covering two square kilometres north of the A344, between King Barrow Ridge and Fargo Plantation (largely equivalent to the Birmingham survey area, without the block south of the road). The work was directed by Timothy Darvill (Bournemouth University), and Friedrich Lüth and Andreas Fischer (Römisch-Germanische Kommission, Deutsches Archäologisches Institut, Frankfurt) with support from Sensys GmbH. Details have not been published.
The Stonehenge Riverside Project geophysics survey
This multi-university field project, responsible for most of the recent excavation in the world heritage site, has a geophysics project directed by Bournemouth University's Kate Welham. They have surveyed over 5.5 hectares since 2004. Details have not been published.
Stonehenge landscape survey (English Heritage)
This is the first modern detailed survey of the earthworks and other standing remains within the world heritage site – the barrows, field systems and linear ditches, tracks, ponds, recent military remains and so on.
Stonehenge mapping project (English Heritage, part of the National Mapping Programme)
This created a map-based record of everything of archaeological and historic interest that is known about the world heritage site from aerial photos. It added 539 sites to the 2,062 recorded at the start, and continues to be updated.
Stonehenge lidar surveys
Lidar creates a very detailed 3D image of the ground surface using airborne laser imagery, and has revealed subtle new details to known earthworks such as field boundaries. The English Heritage survey is described here and in Antiquity 2005 (3). Wessex Archaeology has an impressive 3D animation using lidar data here, and a zoomable lidar image of the whole world heritage site here.
Stonehenge laser scanning (English Heritage)
This has created a high resolution 3D image of the surfaces of the megaliths, and was done on site in spring 2011.

Thanks Mike and the Birmingham team for the data that really is helpful and clears things up. It was apparent that something was not working out from the text available on Saturday but without co-ordinates not so easy to say exactly where the mistake lay . Heritage Daily didn't help by giving one of the pits sites as the same for last years "Henge " .
Assuming the pits are contemporaneous with the cursus i.e. 3630- 3670 BC then the declination for solstice rise and set and that time was 24.05 degrees and the azimuth for sun set at the Solstice as seen from the heel Stone would be 309.5 degres . Looking at the GE image the azimuth for the Heel Stone to western pit alignment is 312.6 degrees (a convenient mark is the south western edge of the field that contains the "Cursus Barrows " ) which is three degrees further north than the sun ever actually gets to . The alignment towards the solstice sun rise is accurate and the resulting distance between the two points is within a couple of metres of exactly 2 Km . the mid way point is thus within a metre over 1 Km ,this point when extended due south as suggested for the final leg of the procession does not lead to the centre of Stonehenge but a point 210 metres east of the centre of the monument .
I have stuck to falsifiable data but problems with the conjecture about alignments involving non intervisibility and painfully slow processions all based on two pits that are undated ,unexcavated and too big to have held timber posts or megaliths might take up too much room .
November 29, 2011 at 6:16 pm
Thanks Mike. Why none of the media thought to ask for the plots is beyond me!
As George says it is very difficult to judge the theories based on two undated and unexcavated anomalies. It would be interesting to compare these plots with previous geophysical surveys conducted in 2006 and 2007 by the EH team, plus of course the Stonehenge landscape relationships survey…
November 29, 2011 at 11:05 pm
There appears, at first sight, to be an additional problem with the plot diagrams:
I took the layout that mike kindly provided above and inserted it into a CAD program so that I could get a trace diagram of the proposed alignments. On taking that line trace and imposing it onto areal satellite mapping, there seems to be a one degree rotation: That is to say that the Birmingham plot appears to be rotated by one degree anti-clockwise from North relative to Google Earth (and also relative to the Microsoft mapping service).
I may be being a bit picky, but this changes their angles: Rather than being an identical angle from the Heelstone to the 'evening' and then 'morning' sunrise pits, there appears to be a two degree difference.
Imposed screen-print of CAD trace diagram using satellite image from Mike Pitt's site:
Trace diagram imposed on Google Earth and rotated clockwise by one degree:
Is there any way to get more precise geographic positions for these pits?
December 1, 2011 at 12:59 pm
Jon , accurate co-ordinates or grid refs would be useful but there is enough info from the image for us to plot the sites of the pits accurately enough to see the problems . The red line is reminiscent of a ley liners pencil width but even if the image is distorted it is unlikely to have been the basis for any calculation and merely a guidline .
December 1, 2011 at 5:31 pm
Aye, but if that's the case and even the 'solstice' alignments were just guideline ideas not based on any real fact, is there anything left in the recent announcements that merits any attention?
December 1, 2011 at 8:01 pm
I may have misunderstood you George: Using the plots Mke provides above, the red lines do appear to be accurately drawn (give or take ten or twenty metres). However, a mirror line about North Axis appears to put one (or other) pit some 60 or so metres away from its apparent mirror line counterpart.
Seems a big discrepancy to me unless the plot has some severe local distortions in its lateral axis (or maybe using Google earth to compare isn't a good enough method of checking)
December 1, 2011 at 8:28 pm
Not sure wht you mean by mirror line Jon . GE like GIS is relatively accurate but should be supported with large scale maps and geodesic progs .As long as we know where the the points are accurately enough we can calculate their various relationships ,distortion only affects their relationships on that image . However we have no evidence that level of accuracy would ever have been achieved in the period .
December 1, 2011 at 8:50 pm
Data required for a proper analysis:
1) Accurate grid refs of the supposed pits (georeferencing a doubtful GE overlay, though fun, isn't adequate)
2) Horizon altitudes in each of the postulated alignment directions as viewed from the Heelstone
December 1, 2011 at 11:49 pm
Sorry George, didn't explain well: A mirror line is just an engineering term used for an object 'mirrored' about an axis: So the mirror of a line pointing east (about the north) would be a line pointing west: If you can see a true horizon, the bearing of your morning sunrise at solstice will be an identical mirror of the evening sunrise (about solar North).
But if one was interested in the bearing of the summer solstice from a point such as the Heelstone, it doesn't seem logical to choose a location for one's primary marker where the hills beyond (particularly the Durrington/Larkhill ridge to the North East) are at an elevation which will obscure your view of the horizon sunrise event.
December 2, 2011 at 10:01 am
Overlays are not useful but the site of the pits on the earlier images ,now removed , provided accurate enough info for accuracy up to 0.2 of a degree .Similarly the height OD of all three sites and also the horizon from the Heel Stone are available on the various large scale maps maps and surveys and subsequent altitudes can be calcualted from these .Clearly the horizon altitudes for both "alignments " are not the pits they are merely under the "line" of the "alignment" .
December 2, 2011 at 10:10 am
Does anyone know if Birmingham University are likely to share the coordinate data of where the pits are located?
March 28, 2012 at 8:27 am
Scroll down to find the article .
It now seems that the snail paced "procession " and the mistaken calculation of the midway point being aligned on the Heelstone at the solstice has been quietly forgotten . The unexcavated ,undated , and in one case unsighted pits , inaccurately calculated to be aligned on the solstices now only "appear " to be aligned . A further eight months might see that put to bed too .

The Argentine midfielder helped lift the Hoops ahead of the Goats with his excellent service.
Following a scoreless opening period, Dallas scored two quick second-half goals to take control. In the 71st minute, Diaz's free kick was headed down by Hendry Thomas right into the feet of Fabian Castillo, who shot from close range past Dan Kennedy to make it 1-0.
Diaz created Dallas' second as well, picking out Je-Vaughn Watson in the 79th minute with a beautifully weighted pass. Watson pipped ahead of Tony Lochhead to collect and rounded Kennedy before finishing.
Erick Torres pulled one back for the visitors in the 81st minute, his third in three matches. Bofo Bautista played a wide ball from the top of the box to Kristopher Tyrpak, whose near-post cross was turned into goal by Torres.
But Michel restored Dallas' lead with a low, bouncing free kick that deflected under the Chivas wall and skipped inside Kennedy's near post.
Dallas saw Thomas ejected in stoppage time for a harsh challenge on Bofo. Thomas was Dallas' third defensive midfielder to exit the game early after Adam Moffat and Andrew Jacobson left the field with injuries.
Dallas remains unbeaten this season with a 2-0-1 record, while the loss is Chivas USA's first. Its record now stands at 1-1-1.

8 Family Members 'Shot in the Head' in Ohio 'Execution-Style Killings,' Officials Say
At least eight family members are dead in what appeared to be "execution-style killings" today across four different locations in Pike County, Ohio, according to officials.
All eight victims -- believed to be seven adults and one 16-year-old -- appeared to have been "shot in the head." Seven of the victims were found in three homes on the same road in Peebles, said Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine and Pike County Sheriff Charles Reader in a news conference this afternoon.
The eighth victim, an adult, was found later than the other victims at a fourth location in Piketon, officials said.
