Capcom has confirmed that it will release the Street Fighter X Tekken 'Ver. 2013' update slightly later than planned.
Originally announced for a December release, the free update is now planned to go live on January 29."Although the release date has been pushed back slightly from the original December 2012 one, we feel that time can go towards including even more of your input," said Capcom's Tomoaki Ayano.
"From the system to the special moves and everything in between, we've gone over all of your suggestions with the intent of making Ver. 2013 just that much better," they added.
Ayano also detailed more changes that'll be made to the gameplay with the update - full details below. Previously-announced changes to come from the "hefty" update, including balance tweaks to each character - can be found here.
Normal Throws
In addition to reducing the frames on start up from 7F to 5F, we're considering tweaking throws to make them more viable as a way of defeating your opponent's defenses. We aren't looking to up the damage of normal throws with this tweak, so much as we are trying to speed up the matches.
The Vitality Gauge Shaking
We've gotten a lot of feedback asking us to stop the vitality gauge from shaking when taking damage.
However, we've also heard some folks say that having the gauge shake makes it easier to see who took damage when viewing replays.
Both points make sense, however since fighting games require players to make split-second, situation-based decisions, we've decided to go with tweaks that improve visibility for the person actually fighting the match.
Quick Combos
We've also had some feedback telling us that Quick Combos will activate without the player meaning to execute them. Seeing as this really hinders gameplay-which is something we really want to avoid-we're thinking out how to make it so that this doesn't happen.

European Shares Decline
LONDON—European stocks reversed gains in a late-session selloff Monday, as U.S. markets turned negative, amid worries about how rising oil prices might impact the broader economy.
The Stoxx Europe 600 index closed down 0.4% at 280.72. The U.K.'s FTSE 100 index fell 0.3% to 5973.78, France's CAC-40 index ended down 0.7% at 3990.41 and Germany's DAX dropped 0.2% to 7161.93.
Oil prices were very much in focus again as investors worried about the potential for civil war in Libya as well as the possible spread of unrest to oil-rich Saudi Arabia, which would threaten oil supplies. Crude-oil futures rose to their highest level in more than two years, with the April Nymex contract nudging beyond the $106-a-barrel mark. This initially helped to push the Stoxx Europe 600 oil and gas index up significantly, but the index pared gains into the close, to end down 0.1%.
At the same time, a flight to safety pushed gold prices to an all-time high of $1445.05 intraday, although gold eased back again in line with oil prices later in the day.
The mood was fairly uncertain Monday, as investors weighed up some upbeat corporate news against continuing worries about Libyan and Middle Eastern unrest, as well as a downgrade of Greece's credit rating by Moody's Investors Service. Moody's cut the country's government bond rating by three notches to B1 from Ba1 and cautioned it could be cut further, given risks to the country's stabilization efforts. The move hit banking stocks, causing the Stoxx Europe 600 index for the sector to close down 0.8% at 208.24.
The economic calendar looks fairly light again on Tuesday, with German industrial orders at 1100 GMT, while in the U.S., Goldman Sachs chain store sales are at 1245 GMT.
In the currency markets, the euro lost ground against the dollar as Greece's credit-rating downgrade weighed. By the time of the European stock markets close, the single currency was trading at $1.3982 from $1.3990 late Friday. Sterling last traded at $1.6218 from $1.6277, and the dollar was at 82.10 yen from 82.30 yen.
Late in Europe, light, sweet crude for April delivery was up $1.05 at $105.47 on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Gold for April delivery was little changed at $1,434.00 per troy ounce late in Europe on the Comex division of Nymex.
In major market action: On the upside, the luxury-goods sector got a boost from M&A activity, after LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton announced a €4.3 billion deal to take control of Italy's Bulgari, which represents a premium of around 61% for the company. LVMH shares gained 1.3%, while Bulgari surged 59%.
Technology stocks were also strong, with shares of telecom-equipment maker Alcatel-Lucent rallying almost 4% in Paris. The stock has surged 13% this month on talk of a possible takeover bid from a Chinese company. Analysts at Berenberg reportedly also upgraded the stock Monday to "buy" from "sell."
In London, Inmarsat slumped more than 13% after the satellite-network operator's results included a cautious forecast.
Shares in German engines and power-trains maker Tognum soared 23% after Daimler and Rolls-Royce Group said they are in talks with Tognum about a possible takeover of the firm.
Salzgitter fell 1.6% in Frankfurt after the steelmaker reported a 2010 profit that fell short of market expectations.
Among banks, Société Générale fell 2% and Credit Agricole sank 1.8% in France, while Intesa Sanpaolo slipped 1.7% in Italy, and Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria dropped 1.4% in Spain.

Feature Item: The Coconut Cake
Our Coconut cake was added to the roster a few years ago. It was "discovered" quite by accident. I had been working on just the right combination, and finally felt it was perfect: soft vanilla cake layers filled with coconut pastry cream, finished with cream cheese icing and fluffy coconut. I made it early in the week, and the staff and I kept having another slice each day as the week went by, to see how it aged, and just to be sure. Because of it's buttery richness, it actually was better after a day or so, when the flavours had melded. The coconut pastry cream soaked into the layers, creating cakey, creamy, coconut heaven. The weekend came, and when my part-time Saturday person was ready to leave around 1:00 pm to go to her other job, I offered her the rest of the cake, as she comes from a large family. She took it to the Cookbook Company, a foodie gathering spot in Calgary, and set it on the table behind the counter. A while later a well-know restaurant critic walked in, saw it, and exclaimed, "oh my God, a coconut cake, I love coconut cake." She tasted it and called me immediately, raving about how delicious it was. I was mortified. This cake was now four or five days old, and certainly not how I would have wanted it presented to the media! No matter. She loved it and began ordering it and sharing it with her friends, and the "cult following" of our Coconut Cream cake was started. It was featured in City Palate, with a description and photo, and we had a lot of traffic after that. We certainly have lots of other cakes that have their followers, but this one seems to make people a little crazy!
Our Coconut Cake is also available by the slice for dessert at The King & I Thai Cuisine Restaurant .
King and I owner Mel Sanders is pictured at Decadent Desserts with THE Coconut Cake.

Hi Hugh, I discovered an error on line 652 of class-seriously-simple-podcasting.php:
The current code is:
if( $wp_version && $wp_version == '3.6' ) {
however it should be:
if( $wp_version && $wp_version >= '3.6' ) {
I have 3.6.1 running and since the wp_version was not an exact match, SSP was falling back to the deprecated mediaelement code included in the plugin. This was causing a conflict where I could not have 2 players on a single page.
I changed the wp_version evaluation and it solved my problem, I can now have multiple players on a single page.
Thanks - hope that helps!
BTW - just wanted to again voice my appreciation for this plugin!! It's the best podcasting plugin I've used, it's simple and easy and Efficient!! Thanks again.

This week, Apple released the anticipated iOS 7 update for iPhones and, with it, the brand-new iTunes Radio. The platform is something we've seen before, notably similar to Pandora and sites like it, but its integration into every Apple product out there means that it could easily become the new music industry standard for internet streaming. With 27 million tracks in its arsenal, iTunes Radio has a lot of potential.
We've been using the service for a week in order to see what it does best, and to come up with some suggestions for which stations you should tune in to depending on what music you want to listen to.Click to start the list

Molecular Genetics
It has been recognized for many years that some patients presenting with acute leukemia may have a cytogenetic abnormality that is cytogenetically indistinguishable from the Philadelphia chromosome (Ph1).[3] The Ph1 occurs in only 1% to 2% of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), but it occurs in about 20% of adults and a small percentage of children with ALL.[4] In the majority of children and in more than one-half of adults with Ph1-positive ALL, the molecular abnormality is different from that in Ph1-positive chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML).
Many patients who have molecular evidence of the bcr-abl fusion gene, which characterizes the Ph1, have no evidence of the abnormal chromosome by cytogenetics. The bcr-abl fusion gene may be detectable only by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) or reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) because many patients have a different fusion protein from the one found in CML (p190 vs. p210). These tests should be performed, whenever possible, in patients with ALL, especially in those with B-cell lineage disease.
L3 ALL is associated with a variety of translocations that involve translocation of the c-myc proto-oncogene to the immunoglobulin gene locus t(2;8), t(8;12), and t(8;22).
Patients with ALL may present with a variety of hematologic derangements ranging from pancytopenia to hyperleukocytosis. In addition to a history and physical, the initial workup should include:
- Complete blood count with differential.
- A chemistry panel (including uric acid, creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, potassium, phosphate, calcium, bilirubin, and hepatic transaminases).
- Fibrinogen and tests of coagulation as a screen for disseminated intravascular coagulation.
- A careful screen for evidence of active infection.
A bone marrow biopsy and aspirate are routinely performed even in T-cell ALL to determine the extent of marrow involvement. Malignant cells should be sent for conventional cytogenetic studies, as detection of the Ph1 t(9;22), myc gene rearrangements (in Burkitt leukemia), and MLL gene rearrangements add important prognostic information. Flow cytometry should be performed to characterize expression of lineage-defining antigens and allow determination of the specific ALL subtype. In addition, for B-cell disease, the malignant cells should be analyzed using RT-PCR and FISH for evidence of the bcr-abl fusion gene. This last point is of utmost importance, as timely diagnosis of Ph1 ALL will significantly change the therapeutic approach.

A playful Alex Ovechkin hit up the red carpet before tonight's 2011 NHL SuperSkills competition and spoke briefly with NHL Network's Heidi Androl. Heidi, who seemed preoccupied with Ovechkin's lax wardrobe, pointed out to the Russian Machine that he was missing a tie and cufflinks. Ovechkin, beaming with pride, encouraged her to check out his cuffs saying, "Look. I didn't even do my button." Oh man, vintage Ovi.

Commissioner Rob Manfred says that the dominance of relief pitchers late in games is one of the reasons MLB is looking into limitations.
With the Orioles in an offensive funk, the team is going to have to turn to its pitching staff, led by Chris Tillman, to right the ship.

Is there any place where I can look at all the Stack Exchange sites? That is, I would like to have a list of all the sites available with Stack Exchange under the hood. If no such list exists right now, I think it would be a good idea to have one where users can configure what all they need to see in a dashboard view.
Meta Stack Exchange is where users like you discuss bugs, features, and support issues that affect the software powering all 158 Stack Exchange communities.
What is meta?
What is meta?
Here's how it works:
- Any Stack Exchange user can ask a question
- The community provides support, votes on ideas, and reports bugs
- Your voice helps shape the way Stack Exchange operates
There's the StackExchange 2.0 sites list on stackexchange.com - and also up there in the "StackExchange" dropdown at the top of the page.
There's a wiki of SE 1 sites on SE meta, although some are now running OSQA or an alternate engine I think.
There's also a full list of SE 2.0 sites (including those in closed beta) maintained at http://metaoverflow.appspot.com/sites

We have tried with making a loginform with custom coding and with the login widget which comes with the members plugin. I tried several codes to keep people front end but nothing is working.
This is one of the snippets I used in my functions.php.
It worked before, but isn't anymore:
add_action( 'wp_login_failed', 'vvg_login_fail' ); // hook failed login
function vvg_login_fail( $username ) {
$referrer = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']; // where did the post submission come from?
// if there's a valid referrer, and it's not the default log-in screen
if ( !empty($referrer) && !strstr($referrer,'wp-login') && !strstr($referrer,'wp-admin') ) {
wp_redirect(home_url() . '/?login=failed' ); // let's append some information (login=failed) to the URL for the theme to use
Hope you can help out.

RIGA, Latvia (November 22, 2013) At least 47 people were confirmed dead Friday in the collapse of a roof at a supermarket in Latvia's capital city, Riga.
Hordes of shoppers were picking up food after work at the supermarket in Riga when an enormous section of the roof caved in.
Firefighters rushed in to save them, only to be crushed themselves when a second part of the roof collapsed.
Three firefighters were among the dead.
Police say they expect the death toll to rise.
In addition to those who died, another 35 people were injured.
Rescue workers were continuing the search for possible survivors, periodically turning off all of their equipment and asking relatives of the missing to call their cell phones so they can try to locate them that way.
The search was proceeding slowly, since both the rubble and the remaining sections of the roof are fragile.

|Vicki Brown Of Giles County Charged With TennCare Fraud
NASHVILLE, TN – A Giles County woman is charged with TennCare fraud for selling prescription drugs paid for by TennCare.
The Office of Inspector General (OIG), with assistance from the Pulaski Police Department and the Giles County Sheriff's Office, today announced the arrest of Vicki Brown, 34, of Pulaski.
Brown is accused in a Giles County indictment of selling the painkiller Hydrocodone which was obtained by using TennCare healthcare insurance benefits.
The TennCare fraud charge against Brown could result in a two year sentence, if convicted. District Attorney General Mike Bottoms is prosecuting.
The OIG, which is separate from TennCare, began full operation in February 2005 and has investigated cases leading to over $3.5 million paid in restitution and recoupment to TennCare, with a total estimated cost avoidance of over $173 million for the TennCare program, according to latest figures. To date, over 1,900 people have been charged with TennCare fraud.
Through the OIG Cash for Tips Program established by the Legislature, Tennesseans can get cash rewards for TennCare fraud tips that lead to convictions. Anyone can report suspected TennCare fraud by calling 1-800-433-3982 toll-free from anywhere in Tennessee, or log on to www.tn.gov/tnoig and follow the prompts that read "Report TennCare Fraud."

Labor Day is just around the corner, and what better way to wind down the season than with a little Texas grilling in your own backyard? Luckily for you, Jon Bonnell, chef and owner of Bonnell's Restaurant in Fort Worth, Texas, is sharing dishes that are perfect for an end-of-the summer cookout. On the menu: grilled lobster and scallions and grilled watermelon salad.
- 2 lobster tails, 10-12 ounces each
- 2 bunches fresh scallions
- 2-3 fresh sprigs each of thyme, rosemary, oregano and dill
- 1 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Baking Directions:
Tie the sprigs of fresh herbs together with butchers twine to form a small brush. Dip the end of the brush into the cup of olive oil and allow to soak while preparing the other items.Prepare the lobster tails by cutting them in half lengthwise and removing any veins, then season lightly with salt and pepper Preheat the grill to high, then use the herb brush to brush an area of the grill bars and place a lobster tail, meat side down, in that spot (this will keep the lobster from sticking to the grill). Return the brush to the oil and brush another spot on the grill, until each of the tails has been placed face down.Each time the herbs brush the grill they will get a slightly more intense grilled flavor. Keep placing the herbs back into the bowl of olive oil between each brushing, which will intensify the flavor of the oil.Grill the tails on the first side for 1-2 minutes, then turn them over and cook until they simmer inside their shells. Grill the scallions in the same manner, using the herb brush, just until they wilt and lightly darken on each side. Season them lightly with salt and pepper while grilling, then arrange them on a large platter.Remove the tails from the grill when they are ready, then remove the meat from the shells (if desired).Place the tails on top of the scallions and drizzle the platter liberally with the herb-infused oil and serve.
Watermelon salad
- Red watermelon slices
- Yellow watermelon slices
- Olive oil
- Kosher salt
Tequila-lime vinaigrette
- 2 1/2 oz freshly squeezed lime juice
- 1 1/2 oz white tequila
- 4-5 sprigs fresh cilantro
- 2 sprigs fresh mint
- 1 jalapeno, seeded
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon dry mustard powder
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 8 oz vegetable oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Baking Directions:
Watermelon salad:Slice the watermelon into 1 1/2-inch-thick cuts and remove as many of the seeds as possible. Brush lightly with oil, then grill on high just enough to make good grill marks on each side. Season with a touch of kosher salt. Arrange slices on a platter and dress with the vinaigrette.Tequila-lime vinaigrette:Tear the cilantro and mint leaves into rough pieces with your fingers. Combine them in a large mixing bowl with all remaining ingredients, except for the oil. Whisk vigorously, then slowly drizzle in the oil while whisking, then immediately pour over the platter of grilled watermelon.

Potter County authorities filed a motion Wednesday to seize $14,000 from a man arrested Wednesday with $8,000 stuffed between his buttocks.
Potter County authorities contend the money was used or intended to be used to commit a felony.
According to an affidavit filed by an Amarillo police officer, a person flagged down an Amarillo police officer near the downtown Greyhound Bus Station who spotted a man smoking marijuana outside.
The officer smelled the odor of marijuana, and the suspect threw a marijuana cigar on the ground and stepped on it. The officer arrested the man on a marijuana possession charge and placed the suspect in a patrol car. The suspect also attempted to hide another marijuana cigar in the back seat of the patrol car.
The officer then transported the man to the Potter County Detention Center, where he was searched.
During the search, officers found $1,887 in the man's front pocket and another $4,090 in his socks. Officers also located $8,050 in cash and six postal money orders totaling $4,200 hidden in the man's buttocks.
The suspect told police he obtained $5,000 of the money sponsoring a St. Louis rap group called Forty Caliber, but St. Louis authorities said there had been no concerts presented by a band of that name. The suspect said he had saved the rest of the money.
Amarillo police checked the man's criminal history and determined he had been convicted of a narcotics offense in Los Angeles.

Whether it's racing, sport touring, cruising, dirt, or stunts, Ghost Ryderz is an organization of motorcycle enthusiasts who enjoy the sport. Ghost Ryderz® Extreme Motorcycle Club was incorporated in May of 2000 as a non-profit organization in the state of New York. We are a chartered club with the AMA (#2443). We expanded to Atlanta, Georgia in April of 2006. Another chapter in Dallas, Texas was started in April 2007. In September 2007, we established a chapter in Virginia. We not only ride but are also involved in the community and support many charitable events.
Depending on what type of event we host, is how we ride. On some rides we take it easy. On other rides we wear full leathers and ride hard. But we alwaysmake safety a #1 issue. You can call it an oxymoron if you may, but, at times, we ride hard while keeping it safe. By that I mean we use hand and arm signals, ride in formations, and I do not condone German helmets and tank tops while riding at insane speeds. We wear leathers, gloves, and helmets to save our skin, bones, and lives!
The Ghost Ryderz® motto is, "In order to ride hard, you must be legit!" Being that, we can assist you in obtaining your motorcycle license whether you need practice or just someone to show up with you to the test site. Don't be like some of those riders who've been riding with a permit for years because of fear of failing. Don't be surprised when a police officer impounds your bike because you were too lazy to obtain a motorcycle license.
Stay safe and ride on.
Ghost Ryderz® Extreme MC, ATL

Rhymefest will be releasing his last "Pre-LP" mixtape, Dangerous: 5-18, on April 1st 2010. Included is the first leak from Fest's Dangerous 5-18 mixtape, "Letter," which will also be appearing in video form soon via Court Dunn's "One Shot" video series and the track has quite an interesting back story, which Rhymefest addresses below.
"This song ("Letter") was recorded for the "El Che" album while I was still on Allido Records with live vocals from John Mayer." If the fans really dig the record, I will release a follow-up statement addressing the Wale situation (how he came about recording his version of "Letter") in the immediate future." Do tell.

In the Function Reference for wp_get_attachment_image_src it says you can use an array to pull a specific size of a thumbnail. I've tried everything I can think of but can't get it to pull the size specified by the array. Here is my code:
$src = wp_get_attachment_image_src( get_post_thumbnail_id( $id ), array(160,90) );
It defaults to the thumbnail I'm assuming since the array isn't recognized. Suggestions?

Since installing W3 Total Cache my 404 errors have turned to soft 404s. That is, the 404 page displays, but the server code returned is 200 and not 404. So Google is indexing copies of my 404 page thinking they're actual pages.
When I disable the W3 Total Cache plugin, the error returns to 404. When I re-enable it, the error is once again 200.
I tried turning on/off the cache 404 in Page Settings and process 404 in Browser Settings.
Caching appears to be working otherwise.

text: 000 FXUS63 KGID 241420 AFDGID Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Hastings NE 920 AM CDT SUN JUL 24 2016 .UPDATE... Issued at 920 AM CDT Sun Jul 24 2016 Just published the first forecast update of the day, mainly to increase and expand-northward the chances of measurable rain (PoPs) in our southern zones... The initial overnight forecast tried to confine rain chances today to only our KS zones, but radar trends along with some very limited help from a few higher-res models such as the HRRR/NSSL WRF clearly suggest that at least scattered showers/isolated storms will in fact drift at least slightly north of the state line into our southern Neb zones yet this morning. This weak convection is pretty clearly tied to a mid level mesoscale convective vortex (MCV) currently centered over west-central KS, interacting with a weak-but-noticeable convergence zone evident between 850-700 millibars. According to forecast soundings, this high-based weak convection is probably only tapping into a few hundred J/kg of most-unstable CAPE. Models such as the RAP13 slowly drift this MCV east-northeast through the day, eventually exiting the vicinity of our southeastern CWA by mid-late afternoon. Given that this limited forcing will be hanging around for several more hours, it`s almost impossible to rule out isolated/scattered convection across our south. For now, have confined all mentionable (15 percent or higher) PoPs for the day to areas generally south of a Geneva-Beaver City line, but would also not be shocked to see some of this rain try creeping a bit farther north and will be keeping a close eye on this. As for severe weather chances this afternoon/tonight, they seem fairly small and we have noted that SPC has kept the official Marginal Risk area just barely south of our CWA (at least thus far). That being said, with instability potentially increasing closer to 1000 J/kg in our south assuming at least limited sun/heating, it`s not out of the question that a few strong to perhaps marginally severe storms could actually materialize mainly within our KS zones later this afternoon into this evening. Related to the aforementioned tricky rain chances, considerable cloud cover could be an issue much of the day as well, which could temper high temps a bit as well (not that most folks would complain!). Will not make any changes yet, as like yesterday some afternoon sun could easily put highs right back on track, but something to keep in mind as well. && .SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight) Issued at 329 AM CDT Sun Jul 24 2016 The weather pattern has transitioned more zonal and more seasonal conditions are settling in early this morning. Temperatures and dewpoints are cooling behind a cold frontal boundary located from roughly KHJH to KGCK. The front will continue to advance south early this morning and a few showers and storms are possible ahead of the boundary which may skirt our southern zones for a time. A cooler, more seasonal airmass will settle across our region and temperatures will be more typical for this time of year with highs in the mid 80s to lower 90s. Conditions will be noticeably less humid as well with dewpoints in the 50s and 60s. Just not looking for much in the way of convection today once the boundary moves south of our area and surface high pressure builds in. Heading into tonight another round of convection is possible in the vicinity of the boundary to the south and along the high plains aided by upslope flow and this activity may affect portions of our southern zones. .LONG TERM...(Monday through Saturday) Issued at 329 AM CDT Sun Jul 24 2016 Primary forecast concern through the long term continue to lie with thunderstorm chances. Generally zonal flow in the upper levels is expected to be in place to start of the period Monday morning, as broad ridging sits over the desert SW/Rockies and a trough slides through the Great Lakes region. At the surface, a frontal boundary meandering around the area looks to be draped across northern/central KS, with mainly light easterly winds in place across the CWA. Could see some lingering precipitation across southern areas to start the day with a subtle wave moving through, but thinking most of the daytime hours will be dry. The east-southeasterly winds remain in place through the day, topping out around 10-15 MPH. Only made minor adjustments to the temp forecast, with highs expected to range from the mid 80s to low 90s. As we get into Monday night, seriously considered removing PoPs completely from the forecast. It`s roughly split down the middle between models keeping it dry/keeping precip chances in. Overall forcing is on the weak side and not really a notable surface boundary expected to be in the area. Capping doesn`t look to be as strong as the past several days, and some models show a weaker-end LLJ developing overnight. Decided that with a couple models still showing some scattered QPF around to keep 20 PoPs going. Tuesday/Tuesday night, models in good agreement with the overall picture, showing little change in the upper level pattern. Zonal/slight northwesterly flow expected to be in place, with the center of the upper high remaining over the desert SW. Precipitation chances are driven by the next upper level shortwave disturbance, and similar to Monday night, models vary with how much activity there ends up being during the daytime hour. While continue to carry some low PoPs during the day, thinking at this that most locations may end up being dry. The better chances come post 00Z and through the overnight hours, when activity that starts over western SD/NE slides southeast through the region. Carrying 30-50% chances across the CWA, with the higher values across the north-northeastern sections. Potential that stronger capping building in during this time frame will limit the overall coverage the further south you go, though not all models (like the NAM) show that being much of a factor. At this point, the potential for strong/severe weather looks to be a bit better through Tuesday night. MLCAPE values of 1500+ j/kg are possible (the NAM is quite a bit higher), and deeper layer shear looks to improve. Entire CWA has been included in the SPC Day 3 Marginal Risk outlook. Large hail/damaging winds would be the primary hazards...will insert mention in the HWO. Outside of the thunderstorm chances, southerly winds may be on the breezy side with speeds around 15 MPH. Temperatures expected to be a touch warmer than Monday, with highs forecast in the lower/mid 90s. Southern areas may see heat index values near 100 degrees. Wednesday through Saturday, the unsettled pattern looks to continue, and overall confidence in mainly preciptiation chances is pretty low. Northwesterly flow remains in place aloft, if anything becoming a touch more amplified with time as the high over the westerly CONUS builds. Periodic shortwave disturbances passing through will continue to bring chances for thunderstorms to the region, but because of timing/location differences between models, difficult to pin down a lot of details. PoPs remain in the 20-40% range. This pattern keeps the brunt of the warmest airmass to the west of our CWA, with highs through this time frame forecast to be in the 80s. && .AVIATION...(For the 12Z KGRI/KEAR TAFS through 12Z Monday morning) Issued at 526 AM CDT Sun Jul 24 2016 Vfr conditions are forecast through the taf period. Clouds will be remain at mid and high levels and any convection should be limited later tonight primarily to the south of the terminals. && .GID Watches/Warnings/Advisories... NE...None.

So cool. I'm always wondering though, do you pre-set dress these locations or do you generally work with what's there? Generally I need a fair amount of previous set-up to the shoot, but also it may be more because I just don't shoot that often.

Will Bitcoin be regulated in 2013?

Earlier in December, a European bitcoin exchange said it had been
granted "payments service provider status" by French government
officials. In other words, the French government considered the exchange to be like Paypal, or similar services.
The exchange is called Bitcoin-Central. The status allows them to seek protections against loss from fraud, among other legal "perks."
This sparked a good deal of controversy within the active bitcoin community. It puzzled me, at first, because I would think that governments would want to stop bitcoin — I'd expect to see more of what we saw within the U.S. government this past year, decrying bitcoin as a currency for drug dealers and other black-marketeers.
Here's the worry: If members of the political class cannot stop bitcoin for being used, they can seek to regulate it. This would undermine one of the points of bitcoin. It was meant to be an unregulated currency; it was meant to put purchasing power back into the hands of you and me, and to distance such power from politicians, unelected government officials, and corporate bankers.
On the other hand, this could be a sign that the digital currency is gaining acceptance. But does it need acceptance or recognition from government agencies?
"Here's the real issue — regulation in this context is only a bad thing if it leads to crony capitalism or if it suggests that 'still-in-beta cryptographic play money' bitcoin requires regulation similar to a national political currency."
– Jon Matonis, Forbes.com
In my opinion, this is something to watch out for as the use of bitcoin continues to spread. However, I doubt that use of bitcoin could be successfully regulated.

Booked Science Boffins for my 7 year old's party.
Mums were delighted as it made a change from the usual parties
Kids were taken away by the experiments
I was proud to have thought of such a fun & educational theme
My daughter had "the best" party!
The organisation was smooth, uncomplicated. Great communication.
AND the scientist had the amazing ability to keep 19 kids under control whilst giving them a fabulous party.

The invention relates to devices for effectuating safe removal of hazardous liquids from industrial work stations, and more particularly to a device and method for safely transferring toxic liquids from a basin or container into a 55 gallon industrial waste barrel and moving the barrel to a dock for loading onto a vehicle.
In various industries, such as the semiconductor industry, large amounts of toxic liquid waste material are produced. Toxic liquid waste materials include various dangerous acids, etchants, solvents, and the like. The problem of disposing of such waste liquid without spillage or splashing and resulting injury to employees presents a serious problem. In the past, portable pumping devices have been used to transfer such waste materials from workstation sinks, basins, etc. into five gallon containers or the like. The contents of such containers then have been poured by employees into conventional 55 gallon waste barrels, using funnels. The waste barrels then are shipped to suitable waste disposal sites. The 55 gallon waste barrels usually have a threaded two inch diameter opening on top, into which a threaded cap or plug is tightly installed to prevent spillage after the waste barrel is filled. Injury or damage to workers and property occasionally occurs due to spillage during transfer of liquid waste material from the utilization site to the five gallon containers and spillage, splashing, and overfilling during transfer into the 55 gallon waste barrels. Injury or damage also occasionally result from accidental dropping of the five gallon containers.
Thus, there is a presently unmet need for a reasonably inexpensive, practical, safe means for transferring toxic liquid waste material into conventional 55 gallon waste barrels or the like.
Accordingly, it is an object of the invention to provide an apparatus and method for safely, directly removing toxic liquid waste material from a container, basin, or the like directly into sealable waste disposal barrels or containers without substantial danger of spillage, leakage, splashing, etc.
Briefly described, the invention provides an apparatus for transferring hazardous liquid into a storage drum. One embodiment includes a mobile base supported by wheels on a floor, an upright member attached to the base, a drum cradle connected to the upright member and a clamp assembly clamping the drum to the drum cradle and jack for raising and lowering the drum cradle and the drum to allow transporting the drum by rolling the base on the floor. A transfer reservoir has an inlet valve coupled to an inlet tube and a dump valve connected to a dump tube extending into an opening in the top of the drum. A vacuum is produced in the transfer reservoir when the dump valve is closed and the inlet valve is open, drawing hazardous fluid through the inlet tube and into the interior of the reservoir, until a full reservoir condition is sensed. The vacuum then is released, the inlet valve is closed, and the dump valve is opened, allowing contents of the transfer reservoir to be emptied into the drum. This procedure is automatically repeated until all of the hazardous liquid has been transferred into the drum or a full drum condition is sensed, in which case the dump valve is closed.
FIG. 1 is a partial perspective view of the waste removal apparatus of the invention.
FIG. 2 is a partial perspective view useful in describing the operation of the apparatus of FIG. 1.
FIG. 3 is a partial side elevational view of the apparatus of FIG. 1.
FIGS. 4A-4C are section view diagrams useful in illustrating the operation of the apparatus of FIG. 1.
FIG. 5 is a section view taken along section line 5--5 of FIG. 3.
FIG. 6 is a section view taken along section line 6--6 of FIG. 3.
FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram illustrating the control connections, liquid tube connections, and pneumatic tube connections of the apparatus of FIG. 1.
Referring now to the drawings, waste disposal device 10 includes a base 11 including two horizonal arms 12 rigidly interconnected by a horizontal crossplate 14. Four casters 13 are supported on the opposite ends of arms 12. A pair of elongated, vertical uprights 15 are rigidly attached to the upper surface of crossplate 14. The upper ends of uprights 15 are rigidly interconnected by a horizontal cross member 16. The length of arms 12 is approximately 30 inches. The height of uprights 15 is approximately 6 feet. The length of crossplate 14 is approximately 30 inches.
A vertically moveable drum cradle 20 is supported on uprights 15. A suitable bearing assembly 20B (FIG. 3) is provided in rear section 20A of drum cradle 20.
A hydraulic jack 21 is supported on the horizontal upper surface of crossplate 14. A moveable piston 21A of hydraulic jack 21 moves upward in the directions of arrows 24 (FIG. 1) in response to actuation of jack handle 22 in the direction indicated by arrows 23. Jack handle 22 preferably is used as a foot peddle. A release valve allows jack 21 to lower drum cradle 20. Piston 21A is attached (See FIG. 3) to the bottom of drum cradle 20, effectuating raising and lowering of drum cradle 20 by jack 21.
A semicylindrical cutout 26 (FIG. 1) of rear section 20A of drum cradle 20 conforms to the cylindrical outer surface 28D of a conventional industrial 55 gallon waste drum 28 (FIG. 2). The radius of an upper flange 28A of drum 28 is slightly greater than the radius of the cylindrical wall section 28D.
Drum cradle 20 includes a hinge 30 connected to the outer end section 20C of stage 20. A stainless steel band 31 has hinged thereto at its opposite end a quick release latch handle 32. A hook 33 associated with quick release latch handle 32 engages a stop or peg 33A rigidly attached to the outer end 20D of drum cradle stage 20. Band 31 is utilized in conjunction with quick release latch handle 32 to secure waste drum 28 tightly against the semicylindrical surface 26 of drum cradle stage 20A, allowing drum 28 to be lifted and conveniently rolled on a factory floor to a waste disposal dock after drum 28 has been filled with toxic liquid in the manner hereinafter described. Thus, the operator does not have to lift, roll, or tilt the waste drum 28 during loading, use or unloading.
A control box 35 is attached to upright members 15, as shown.
Reservoir support stage 36 is moveably mounted on uprights 15 by a pair of guide bearing assemblies 36A, as shown in FIG. 3. Reservoir support stage 36 includes a forward part 36B which receives and supports a liquid transfer reservoir 50. Preferably, the transfer reservoir 50 is transparent so the operator can verify that the waste liquid is properly drawn into the transfer tank and dumped therefrom into waste drum 28 as the inlet valve 55 and dump valve 60 are alternately opened and closed.
A pair of spaced bosses 40 rigidly attached to the horizontal upper surface of reservoir stage 36 have pivotally journaled therebetween the lower end of a connecting rod 41, the upper end of which is pivotally connected to the right hand end of a lever 42. An intermediate portion of lever 42 is pivotal-y journaled between a pair of spaced bosses 43 that are rigidly attached to the bottom of upper cross member 16. The rear or left-hand end of handle 42 can be raised or lowered in the directions of arrows 44, causing reservoir stage 36 and liquid transfer reservoir 50 to be vertically moved in the direction of arrows 45.
A T-shaped conduit attached to the bottom of transfer reservoir 50 is connected to a pneumatically controlled inlet valve 55 and a pneumatically controlled dump valve 60. Inlet valve 55 receives a flexible waste fluid inlet tube 56, the free outer end of which can be placed in a basin or other container from which toxic waste liquid is to be removed. During operation, the toxic waste fluid is drawn through inlet tube 56 in the direction of arrow 57 through open inlet valve 55 and through T connector 54 into transfer reservoir 50 by a vacuum therein, as subsequently explained.
An inlet dump valve 60 is connected to the other opening of T connector 54. A tube 65 is connected to the outlet of dump valve 60 and passes through splash shield 62. Splash shield 62 has a tapered, resilient surface which is partially inserted into the two inch hole 28C in the top 28B of waste disposal drum 28 during transfer of toxic liquids thereto. A level sensor tube 63A connected to a pressure sensor 78 (FIG. 7) extends to the bottom of tube 65 to detect when enough toxic waste liquid has been transferred to fill waste drum 28.
Pneumatic tube 58 connects inlet valve 55 to control box 35. Pneumatic tube 61 connects dump valve 60 to control box 35. Tube 63A is connected to pressure sensor 78 (FIG. 7).
A vacuum tube 52 is connected between the interior of transfer reservoir 50 and a controlled vacuum source 96 (FIG. 7) by means of pneumatic valve 74 and vacuum reservoir 75. A level sensor 51 on the top of transfer reservoir 50 communicates with the interior thereof, indicating when it is filled. Level sensor 51 is connected by electrical conductor 53 to control unit 35A (FIG. 7), which is located inside control box 35 of FIG. 1. Vacuum reservoir 75, vacuum source 96, regulator 79, pressure sensor 78, one way flow restrictors 81 and 82, and valves 73, 74, 80, 81, and 84 also are located in control box 35.
Controlled vacuum source 96 (FIG. 7) is a Venturi jet past which a high pressure jet of air flows; this jet of air is produced by a high pressure (80 psi) air source through valve 80. Venturi device 96 produces the controlled vacuum, which then is applied to or disconnected from the interior of transfer reservoir 50 by means of valve 74 in accordance with the operation of control unit 35A.
As shown in FIG. 1, the reservoir stage and transfer reservoir 50 are partly shielded by a shroud 47 (partially shown) that is rigidly attached to stage 36. A retaining tab 48 (FIG. 2) rigidly attached to the bottom of shroud 47 engages an inner vertical surface of flange 28A of 55 gallon waste drum 28, as shown in FIG. 2, when reservoir stage 36 is lowered to effectuate transfer of toxic waste liquid into waste drum 28.
FIG. 7 schematically shows the connection of liquid valves, pneumatic valves, liquid lines, pneumatic lines, and control unit 35A in the presently preferred embodiment of the invention. An 80 psi (pounds per square inch) source of air or nitrogen is carried by pneumatic tube 90 into electrically controlled two-way solenoid valve 80 and three-way solenoid values 81 and 84, and the input of a pressure regulator 79, which produces an output pressure of 5 psi in pneumatic tube 94. Two-way solenoid valve 80 and three-way solenoid values 81 and 84 are controlled by control, unit 35A by means of electrical signals on conductors 96A, 97 and 98, respectively. The outlet of two way solenoid valve 80 is coupled by pneumatic tube 91 to the inlet of a Venturi vacuum generator 96, which then exhausts the compressed air or nitrogen, as indicated by arrow 99. A vacuum is thereby produced in pneumatic tube 101, which is connected to a vacuum reservoir 75. The outlet of vacuum reservoir 75 is connected by pneumatic tube 102 to an air operated valve 74, the outlet of which is coupled by vacuum line 52 to transfer reservoir 50. Normally closed air operated valve 74 is controlled by pressure in pneumatic tube 92, which is connected to the outlet of three-way solenoid valve 81. Pneumatic tube 92 also is connected to the inlet of a flow control valve 81A, which delays opening of normally closed air operated inlet valve 55.
Normally closed air operated air inlet valve 73 is coupled between vacuum line 52 and pneumatic tube 94, which is coupled to the 5 psi output of regulator 79. Air inlet valve 73 is controlled by pressure in pneumatic tube 93, which is coupled to the outlet of three-way solenoid valve 84. Pneumatic tube 93 also is connected to flow control valve 82 to delay opening of dump valve 60 via pneumatic tube 61. Pneumatically controlled dump valve 60, when opened, dumps the contents of transfer reservoir 50 via tube 65 into waste storage drum 28. Air inlet valve 73 is opened by pressurized air in tube 93 in response to opening of valve 84 by control unit 35A while transfer reservoir 50 is being dumped. Opening of air inlet valve 73 allows low pressure 5 psi air in tube 94 to be forced into transfer reservoir 50 to replace toxic waste that is being dumped through dump valve 60. The increased 5 psi air pressure improves the rate of dumping.
The 5 psi pressure in pneumatic tube 94 also is connected to a flow restrictor 83, the outlet of which is coupled to pneumatic tube 63A, which extends into the interior of waste drum 28. When the level of waste liquid in drum 28 rises to within about 4 inches from its top, the pressure in pneumatic tube 63A increases and is detected by pressure sensor 78, which produces a corresponding electrical signal on electrical conductor 66.
One skilled in the art can readily provide a suitable control unit 35A programmed to generate the needed control signals on conductors 96A, 97 and 98 in response to manual control switches and the level sensor 51 and pressure sensor 78 to produce the operation described above.
In operation, waste disposal device 10 is rolled, using handle 68, up to a conventional waste drum 28 resting on the floor. Latch handle 34 is released, and band 31 is swung outward in the direction of arrow 70. Waste disposal device 10 is then rolled toward the drum so that the horizonal base arms 12 extend on either side thereof. The jack 21 is operated to lower drum cradle stage 20 so that the semi-cylindrical surface 26 snugly fits around the upper cylindrical wall of the drum 28 just below flange 28A. The band 31 is reattached to end 20D of the drum cradle stage and locked thereto, tightly securing drum 28 to the waste removal apparatus 10. Jack handle 22 then is actuated, raising drum cradle 20 and barrel 28. The waste removal apparatus 10 then is rolled to a working area from which toxic liquid must be removed. Jack 21 is operated to lower drum 28 onto the floor with the drum remaining fastened to stage 20, causing the drum to serve as a brake to prevent the device from rolling.
The free end of inlet hose 56 is inserted into the toxic liquid to be disposed of. Upper handle 42 (FIG. 1) then is raised, lowering transfer reservoir 50 and splash shield 62 so that the lower part of splash shield 62 extends into the two inch threaded hole 28C of waste drum 28. A control switch in control unit 35A then is actuated, causing valve 80 to open, causing valve 81 to open, and causing valve 84 to be closed. Opening of valve 81 causes 80 psi air pressure to be present in tubes 92 and 58, causing normally closed vacuum valve 74 to open and causing normally closed liquid inlet valve 55 to open. Valve 84, by being closed, causes pressure in tubes 93 and 61 to be relieved, so normally closed air inlet valve 73 and normally closed dump valve 60 remain closed. The vacuum draws toxic liquid safely through inlet hose 56 and inlet valve 55 into transfer reservoir 50, as indicated by arrow 111 in FIG. 4A, without any possibility of spillage or splashing of the toxic liquid. This continues until the level of toxic liquid in reservoir 50 reaches level sensor 51, as indicated in FIG. 4B, which then sends a signal via conductor 53 to control unit 35A. Control unit 35A then automatically closes valve 81 and opens valve 84. Closing valve 81 releases the pressure in tubes 92 and 58, which allows normally closed vacuum valve 74 to close and allows normally closed liquid inlet valve 55 to close. The opening of valve 84 produces 80 psi air pressure in tubes 93 and 61, which opens normally closed air inlet valve 73 and opens normally closed dump valve 60. Closing vacuum valve 74 disconnects the vacuum source from transfer reservoir 50. Open dump valve 60 then safely discharges the contents of transfer reservoir 50 directly into waste drum 28, as shown in FIG. 4C. Open air inlet valve 73 allows 5 psi air in tube 94 to be forced through tube 52 into transfer reservoir 50 to replace liquid being dumped through open dump valve 60. Control unit 35A allows enough time for all of the toxic liquid in transfer reservoir 50 to be discharged into waste drum 28 before closing dump valve 60 air inlet valve 73 reopening inlet valve 55, and reopening valve 74 to reapply the vacuum to transfer reservoir 50.
The foregoing operation is automatically repeated until the manual control unit on/off switch is turned off by the operator after all of the toxic liquid has been removed from the basin or other container, or until pressure sensor 78 detects that waste barrel 28 is filled and sends a corresponding signal via conductor 66 to control unit 35A. Control unit 35A then turns off inlet valve 55 and dump valve 60 and effectively disconnects the vacuum source from transfer reservoir 50. The operator then removes inlet hose 57 from the toxic liquid source, actuates jack 21 to lift the full waste barrel 28 and using handle 68, rolls the waste removal apparatus 10 and the filled waste drum 28 supported thereby to a suitable storage location.
When the level of toxic liquid in waste barrel 28 rises above the open lower end of tube 63A (FIG. 7), the increase of air pressure in tube 63A is sensed by pressure sensor 78, causing it to generate a "barrel full" signal on conductor 66.
After the drum 28 has been lowered onto the floor and the waste disposal device 10 withdrawn from the drum, a suitable seal cap is fitted into the opening 28C, thereby sealing the waste disposal drum 28.
Interlocks (not shown) prevent the system from operating unless proper conditions exist. A drum interlock is provided that requires the drum to be secured in place before the control unit permits proper operation. A stage interlock requires the transfer reservoir stage 36 to be lowered so that the dump tube 63 extends into the waste drum 28. A brake interlock requires that the 55 gallon drum be lowered to the floor before transfer operation can occur. A manual switch can be provided allowing any liquid remaining in the transfer tank to be dumped into the waste drum 28 by pressing a manual dump switch, bypassing the "drum full" interlock.
While the invention has been described with reference to a particular embodiment thereof, those skilled in the art will be able to make various modifications to this described embodiment without departing from the true spirit and scope of the invention. For example, the transfer reservoir stage 36 and the transfer reservoir and associated valves and tubes can be supported by a wall in such a manner that they are vertically movable in the manner described above. The waste drums then can be positioned beneath the transfer reservoir, which then can be lowered so that tube 65 extends into hole 28C, and liquid transfer proceeds as described above.

Emergency and Crisis Planning Module
Module Tutor: Professor David Alexander
Module code: GEOLGR03, 15 credits
Planning is an essential part of managing risks, crises, emergencies and disasters. This module will teach the methodology and techniques of emergency planning, including the standards, principles, templates and research methods involved. The module will deal with generic emergency planning and specialised planning, including that practised for heritage protection, health service and mass-casualty management, industrial emergencies and business continuity. The module will also address how to plan for recovery and reconstruction after a disaster. Students will learn how to create, utilise and maintain emergency plans in both generic terms and for specific sectors, such as health, industry, commerce and tourism. They will learn how to research, write, implement and verify plans. Students will learn to construct scenarios for different contingencies and use their outcomes as vital ingredients in plans. Students will be encouraged to treat planning as a process rather than an outcome. They will learn about the logistical, organisational, administrative, policy and legal contexts of emergency and crisis planning, and how to utilise plans efficiently in emergency and crisis response and recovery.
The module will cover the following topics:-
· Introduction: definitions, principles, scenarios, structure of a plan
· Standards in emergency planning

Heretic (Paperback)
Usually Ships in 1-5 Days
Already a seasoned veteran of King Edward's army, young Thomas of Hookton possesses the fearlessness of a born leader and an uncanny prowess with the longbow. Now, at the head of a small but able band of soldiers, he has been dispatched to capture the castle of Astarac. But more than duty to his liege has brought him to Gascony, home of his forebears and the hated black knight who brutally slew Thomas's father. It is also the last place where the Holy Grail was reported seen. Here, also, a beautiful and innocent, if not pious, woman is to be burned as a heretic. Saving the lady, Genevieve, from her dread fate will brand Thomas an infidel, forcing them to flee together across a landscape of blood and fire. And what looms ahead is a battle to the death that could ultimately shape the future of Christendom.

Safety Net Hospitals Seeing More Paying Patients
Many hospital executives were unnerved, therefore, when the Supreme Court ruled in 2012 that states could not be forced to implement the Medicaid expansion and nearly half of them have refused. As a result, hospitals in non-expansion states are undergoing the funding cuts without a corresponding reduction in uncompensated care.
Big Impact On Patients
In Seattle, Harborview had projected a $10 million gain in revenue this year because it would be able to recoup payments for services provided to the newly insured. Now, with a 10-percentage-point drop in uninsured patients in one year, the hospital system managed by the University of Washington is projecting a $20 million revenue increase on annual revenue of about $800 million, said Associate Administrator Elise Chayet.
Hospital officials say the biggest impact of the change is on patients themselves. Rather than having to rely on emergency rooms, newly insured patients can see primary care doctors and get diagnostic tests and prescription drugs, among other services.
Some safety-net hospitals say they started to see their numbers of uninsured patients dropping almost immediately after the Medicaid expansion took effect in January.
"We have seen a steady decline in our uninsured visits," said Roxane Townsend, CEO of UAMS. "We did not anticipate this big a drop this quickly."
About 80 percent of the system's new Medicaid patients had previously been seen by the hospital as uninsured patients, she said. Their enrollment in coverage means the hospital is paid more for their care and is able to direct them to outpatient services and preventive care.
She said that UAMS has also seen a drop in ER visits by uninsured patients — from 6,000 visits in first three months of 2013 to about 4,000 visits in first three months of this year, calling the decline "significant."
While some emergency physicians have offered anecdotal reports of increased use of the ER since January, there is no documentation of the health law's impact yet. Studies examining ER use in Massachusetts following that state's expansion of coverage showed an initial surge followed by a decline in those numbers over several years.

Aubrey Huff Puts Hands Down Pants, Makes Giants Victory Parade Memorable
At yesterday's Giants parade, Aubrey Huff delighted the crowd with his "special talent," learned from Zoolander, rooting around in his pants and removing "the rally thong." It won't work as a t-shirt, but it's just as good as "World Fucking Champs." [NBC]

San Antonio's airport is only 8.5 miles from the downtown business district -- about a 15-minute drive -- which is unusual for a major metropolitan area. This means that once you land at the airport, you're just minutes from downtown or major resorts. If you have questions about how to get around, the Visitor Center is a good source of up-to-the-date information.
