Born & Raised:
Real name: Shaffer Smith Jr.
Born: Oct. 18, 1979 in Camden, Arkansas. Raised in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Born: Oct. 18, 1979 in Camden, Arkansas. Raised in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Early Life:
Ne-Yo was born in Arkansas, but as a child, he moved to Las Vegas with his mother after his parents split up. Growing up, he showed a knack for performing, and was enrolled in the Las Vegas Academy, a high school for the performing arts, by his mother. While at the school in the late 1990s, he and other students at formed a quartet called Envy that was led by a female singer. Envy, however, didn't last long: the group disbanded in 2000. After this, Ne-Yo began writing and recording his own material as a solo artist.
Songwriting Career:
After being discovered and signed by Columbia Records, Ne-Yo began working on his debut album, but the process ground to a halt after being dropped from the label. He did have a bit of luck, however, when a song he wrote for his unreleased debut called "That Girl" was rerecorded by singer Marques Houston, formerly of the kiddie group Immature, who was then working on his debut album. The song was released in March 2003 as Marques' debut single as a solo artist. At this point, Ne-Yo put singing on the back burner and focused on his songwriting talents. Between 2003 and 2005, he wrote songs that went on to be recorded by Mary J. Blige, Musiq Soulchild and Teedra Moses, among others. His biggest accomplishment, however, came in 2004, with the release of his song "Let Me Love You," as sung by R&B singer Mario. The song was the first written by him to reach No. 1 on the Billboard singles chart.
Singing Success:
Ne-Yo's singing career got back on track when was signed by the Def Jam label after a meeting with executives in 2005. He took the stage name Ne-Yo as a sort of tribute to the Keanu Reeves character in the "Matrix" films, Neo. His debut album, In My own Words, was released by Def Jam in February 2006 and reached No. 1 on the Billboard albums chart, thanks to the highly successful singles "So Sick," "When You're Mad" and "Sexy Love." Since that point, Ne-Yo has become a household name, and has branched out producing and acting. His acting credits include the films "Battle: Los Angeles" and "Red Tails," and in January 2012, he was named a senior vice president at Motown Records.
Notable Quote:
"I always write from stuff that happens to me. Because that's honestly the best place to pull from, because you're not gonna write a better song than about something that you've experienced. Pain and happiness that you felt, because you can really really write about how it truly felt, as opposed to making it up." -- Ne-Yo, regarding his songwriting technique, to concreteloop.com in 2007.

The Martin Ether2DMX allows users to increase the number of Maxxyz DMX universes and/or place DMX universes remotely on any TCP/IP Ethernet network. The box extends the number of universes by four, making it possible to reach a maximum of 32 universes. Your DMX universes can be placed at a remote location, connected to the Maxxyz by a single Ethernet line (RJ45).
The box can also extend the number of DMX inputs or have DMX inputs placed at a remote location. It can be used as an output device for the upcoming Maxxyz PC or as an input device for Martin ShowDesigner (MSD). The Ether2DMX box uses the Artnet protocol and can therefore be used to interface with any third party product that can interface with Artnet. When using additional Ether2DMX routers, a switch must be employed to split up the Ethernet connection. A rack mount RJ45 Neutrix switch will be available soon, but any normal Ethernet switch can be used. Neutrix RJ45 cables will also be available soon, but any RJ45 cat 5 can be used to interconnect the Ether2DMX router with the Maxxyz or a computer.

Malpas fire crew save woman in dramatic River Usk rescue
1:12pm Monday 3rd September 2012 in News By Chris Wood, Reporter
FIRE crews made a dramatic rescue of a woman from the River Usk last night.
The woman came close to drowning after being swept three quarters of a mile down the River Usk towards the sea.
She had fallen into the river close to the Millennium Bridge, Newport, at around 1.04am this morning, with rescue crews managing to get to her just before she was washed into the sea.
A crew from Malpas fire station's technical rescue station was sent after receiving a call from the police.
Station manager Shaun Moody said: "She had gone down under the water a couple of times, it was touch and go, but we were able to get to her at the last possible minute before she was washed out to sea."
A small inflatable boat had been launched into the river near George Street Bridge.
After being rescued, the woman was taken to Newport's Royal Gwent Hospital suffering from exhaustion and hypothermia.

What interests bring people to a career in Land Surveying?
People choose this career for the opportunity to work on projects outdoors in a
career that is active but not extremely hazardous. Many enter because they are
interested in maps and geography, and many enter because they want to make use
of education they already have in mathematics or drafting.
Are there jobs in this field?
Yes, we have always had excellent job placement, even during economic slow
times. Put simply, everyone who wants a job gets a job.
What kinds of jobs are these?
Most of our graduates go to work in outdoor jobs, which involve two-person
crews and total station and GPS equipment. Major tasks involve topographic
map-making, property boundary marking, and construction staking. A few persons
go directly to computer-aided drafting jobs, which involve map-making,
site-plans, and interpretation of property line descriptions.
Do these jobs involve travel and being away from home?
This varies depending on the employer and the types of project that employer
takes on. A person should expect an occasional out-of-town job that involves
camping or staying in a hotel during the week; however, in some job
assignments, every project is local.
How much money do people make?
In 2004 the average wage for graduates is $16 per hour, ranging from $14 to
Who are your employers?
Most of our people go to work for Surveying and Engineering consulting firms
within Washington State . A minority go to work for government agencies,
typically City and County governments. For employers, look under Surveyors,
Land in the Yellow Pages.
How much money do people eventually make?
Typical job advancement moves people from entry level to party chief in two to
four years, at which time they earn between $18 and $27 in current dollars.
Professionals-in-training typically earn $50,000 per year, and licensed
professionals earn between $50k and $100k.
What is the license, and will I have one when I graduate?
The Professional License is administered by the Department of Licensing and is
considered a significant professional goal, comparable to becoming a Certified
Public Accountant. A person must have eight years of experience (including
related education) to be eligible. The Land Surveyor-in-Training exam is
available after four years. Many graduates of this program are now licensed.
How good is job placement after one year?
Those who leave after the first year also have favorable placement rates in
many of the same entry-level jobs as second-year graduates, at only slightly
lower wages.
Why take the second year?
The second year greatly improves job-advancement and provides the understanding
to help the graduate on a professional career track. It also opens the door to
direct placement in office jobs.
Can I take just the second year?
We very rarely recommend a person be placed directly in the second year of the
program. The first year provides a technical foundation that even persons who
have worked in the field for some time still need. However, there are
exceptions. It should be understood that it is not possible to get the degree
without having taken the first year.
What must I do to complete degree?
You must complete both years of the program and take the four General Education
courses listed in the catalog. Transfer credit is often accepted for Gen Ed as
well as the mathematics courses within the program (161, 2, 3 and 261, 2, 3).
Can I transfer and go on for a Bachelor's Degree?
Several graduates of our program have transferred to Oregon Institute of
Technology to complete the Bachelor's degree in this field. Other options used
successfully are the transfers to City University or DeVry University . We are
willing to explore other schools with persons desiring specific transfers.
Transfer of credit is at the discretion of the receiving institution and must
be consistent with their program objectives in order to apply toward their
When can I enter the program?
There is only one entry point for both years, and that is the beginning of fall
quarter in mid-September. It is important not to miss that opportunity.
Why can't I enter the program at other times?
The knowledge and skills learned all through this program build on each other,
and a person would be lost if entering at a time other than the beginning.
What if I just want to take one course?
In special situations we allow a person to take a single course if they have
the background to succeed in that course. The stand-alone evening courses in
Land Development Desktop and Autocad (Drafting Program) are enduringly popular.
Can I work while I go to school?
The program is taught as a block, from 8AM to 2:30 PM daily, and it is
not practically possible to arrange the class schedule around work. Many
persons work after school. In June of the First year, and extending to the
start date of the Second year, students are encouraged to work internships in
the Surveying profession, and more than half of our students do, usually at an
entry-level wage (see above). This internship often paves the way to permanent
employment after graduation.
It's been a long time since I last took math, or, I never took it…Can I
Math is considered by many to be the most difficult part of this program, but
it is also a core proficiency. Land Surveying requires the use of a greater
variety of math on a regular basis than most other careers. Our 160 and
260-series courses start at the beginning of algebra and tour trigonometry and
algebra, ending in introductory Calculus. If a student did well in high school
algebra, even quite a few years ago, it will come back. We do not recommend for
a person to enter this program, however, without at least a score of 40 on the
numerical skills portion of the Compass test. Those who must devote the most
study to math during the program are those who never took algebra before.
Is Land Surveying part of Civil Engineering?
No; however, the two fields share some common skill-sets and goals. It is quite
common for Civil Engineering and Surveying services to be offered by the same
company, as both are needed for the completion of many projects. Surveying and
Engineering require separate education and licenses. Engineering is primarily
an art and science of design; whereas, surveying is an art and science of
measurement, map-making, and information management. In short, Engineers use
the maps provided by Surveyors, and Surveyors interpret and mark field
locations for the designs made by Engineers.
What is Geomatics ?
This is a term that is commonly used in schools as an alternative name for Land
Surveying. It is intended to imply a broader scope of knowledge than previously
conceived for the term Land Surveying (which has expanded greatly in recent
years). We choose to retain the old name in order to provide the widest
recognition in the community.

4 Tips To Save Your Wallet From The Kids
August 2, 2010 | Posted By: Lior Levin
If you are looking for a great way to save some money, then you need to learn to get past the kids "I want" syndrome.
Boy, it used to be years ago that when the Christmas catalogue would come in the mail, you could stuff it away before the kids got a hold of it and wrote out their 5-page wish list to Santa, which resulted in your wallet being left with the credit cards only (maxed out of course).
Now it is true that the daily mail still holds the gigantic sales fliers, telling the kids that they just "have to have" everything that is in print. This is not too big of an issue, because most of the kids nowadays won't take the time to look at the papers anyway.
But look out! Here comes the Internet. The kids have a whole world of shopping ahead of them, literally. There isn't anything that the kids can't find here for you to buy, no matter what the occasion. In fact, there doesn't even have to be a reason for the "I want" syndrome. So you need some pretty innovative planning to get past this one. I mean the phrase "no way" only works for so long right?
Here are a few tips to help you get past the kids internet shopping frenzy:
Tip #1:
When you are setting those parental controls on the computer, make sure you include some of the current favorite shopping sites. "Out of sight, out of mind" is a pretty good thought here. Now of course you can't block out the entire shopping world on the Internet. If that were the goal, then you may as well just unplug the computer.
Tip #2:
Set the ground rules for shopping sites just like you do for web surfing. Restrict the kids to a few shopping sites that are applicable to their age groups. After all, there is no harm in wishful thinking, and there is bound to be some gift giving occasions coming up that you will want ideas for. Knowing what the favorite shopping sites of the kids are will be a great resource for you when it comes shopping time. Don't be surprised to find a pop up from the kids though, directing what to look at when you arrive at a site - just in case you need some extra help, of course.
Tip #3:
In the old days, it used to be called window shopping. This was the next best thing to buying. At least we could look and dream and perhaps plan a future shopping purchase. Well how about setting some "screen shopping," guidelines. Set a few hours a week aside that the kids can go to a few sites and do some wishful thinking shopping. Maybe it will even encourage them to do some saving if there is something they really want.
Tip #4:
Using the Internet "I want" syndrome to get what you want. If you really need that basement or garage cleaned out, here is your golden opportunity. If the kids want that Internet item bad enough, are they willing to work for it? Some may say this is bribery, but I say it's just plain great negotiations!
When it is finally time to buy online, make sure you follow the detailed guide to shopping safely online

Our flagship program is held after-school at schools and community centers across Chatham County.
[SlideDeck2 id=3565]
Here's how our after-school program works:
Who: 12-14 students from grades 6-8 meet with two trained Deep Writing Fellows (with clearance from the Board of Education/Campus Police) for 75 minutes after-school, once per week.
What: Students and Writing Fellows meet weekly to learn about creative writing, and each student produces original stories, poems, and plays. They share and learn from one another's pieces, and with the help of our Fellows, they polish their work to a publishable standard.
Where: Workshops meet in a classroom or library space provided by each participating location.
When: Deep holds two 10-week sessions each year (Oct-Dec; Feb-Apr). Each week, workshops meet for 75 minutes. By the end of the series, each DeepKid gets 12.5 hours of personal attention and individualized instruction in writing.
How: Each week, Writing Fellows teach according to Deep's tested workshop structure, dedicating at least three weeks to basic skills, six weeks to more advanced skills, and one week to revision. Writing Fellows provide extensive, constructive, and encouraging feedback on students' work. At the end of ten weeks, each DeepKid's work is published in a professionally illustrated, perfect-bound anthology of student work.
DeepKids are invited (along with family and friends) to attend our book release and open-mic reading, Deep Speaks!, in June and January each year, at the Jepson Center, to celebrate their accomplishment and receive their published book.

Rated 2 out of 5�by 2 reviewers.
Rated 1 out of 5�by Ali Wrong Apparel Department I was ordering items from Women's apparel, and purchased this without seeing the "girls". Needless to say, when it arrived I was disappointed in the Medium - as it was not a women's medium. July 2, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5�by woman size Correct the listing please This is a lovely Girls' tennis skirt. I checked and it is still listed on the Womens' clearance page. I ordered it and had to return it because of size. It was my error for not catching the Girls' size. I sent a note requesting this correction when I returned the item. Please remove it from the Womens' page. July 1, 2014

The brief describes the verdict as "irreconcilably inconsistent."
If the verdict isn't tossed out, the city should at least get a new trial, according to the brief.
In one section of the verdict, jurors said it was unreasonable for the city to expect Cradle to renounce the national BSA's antigay policy to remain in the building rent-free.
But in another section of the verdict, jurors said the city's overall eviction attempt was reasonable.
According to the brief, the contradiction is so glaring, it's similar to a jury stating in one section of a verdict that a traffic light was red, and stating in another section that a traffic light was green.
"A jury could not find that the traffic light was red in one interrogatory, and then, in the name of compromise, find that the traffic light was green in a different interrogatory," the brief states. "The light was either red or green."
The city's brief also emphasizes that no law requires the city to subsidize Cradle's discriminatory conduct, including the First Amendment.
Additionally, there's no evidence that the city has violated any of Cradle's constitutional rights, according to the brief.
Several years ago, the city initiated eviction proceedings against Cradle, which is headquartered inside a city-owned building on 22nd Street near the Ben Franklin Parkway.
Cradle refuses to allow gays in its Scouting programs, which allegedly violates several city laws and policies regarding the provision of services within city facilities.
But Cradle claims it has a First Amendment right to exclude gays, even inside a public building.
In 2008, Cradle filed suit against the city, which resulted in a federal jury ruling that the city placed an "unconstitutional condition" on Cradle's right to exclude gays during the eviction attempt.
In July 2010, U.S. District Judge Ronald Buckwalter issued a permanent injunction, preventing the city from evicting the Scouts unless it does so in a constitutional manner.
If the Third Circuit Court of Appeals enters overall judgment in favor of the city, Buckwalter's injunction would be vacated, clearing the way for the Scouts' eviction.
City seeks clarification of judge's injunction
If the appeals court doesn't enter judgment in favor of the city — or if it doesn't order a new trial — the city alternately is seeking clarification of Buckwalter's injunction.
"Quite simply, we assume that the city is not required to subsidize Cradle's discrimination in perpetuity, but we have no guidance as to how we can disentangle ourselves from Cradle's discrimination," the city's brief states. "Fundamental fairness requires that we be given that guidance."
In the Nov. 19 brief, the city describes Buckwalter's injunction as "unacceptably vague."
"At a minimum, the court should remand with instructions to [Buckwalter] to issue a reasonably clear injunction," the brief states.
The brief goes on to say that the city is entitled to "fair notice" of what would be an improper eviction proceeding.
"[Buckwalter's] injunction is unacceptably vague in that it only tells the city to obey the Constitution, without any specificity as to how to obey the Constitution," the brief states.
City defends LGBT advocates
Cradle has argued that the city impermissibly caved in to political pressure from LGBT activists when pursuing the Scouts' eviction.
But the city's brief states that it was appropriate for government officials to respond to citizens' concerns in a participatory democracy.
Buckwalter specifically faulted former City Solicitor Romulo L. Diaz Jr., who is openly gay, for allegedly pandering to pressure from LGBT advocates when pursuing Cradle's eviction.
But the city's brief emphasizes that Diaz acted properly when attempting to end the subsidy.
"The fact that Mr. Diaz himself was a gay man is an improper basis to uphold a finding of unconstitutionality," the brief states. "Leaders are certainly permitted to make decisions for the purpose of benefiting groups of which they are members. Black leaders can assist the NAACP, just as Jewish leaders can assist Israel, just as lawyers can assist bar groups."
The brief adds: "Cradle at best established that Mr. Diaz responded to a zealous constituency, which is not a constitutional violation."
Buckwalter also has claimed that the city overstepped its bounds by trying to force Cradle to stop discriminating in areas outside the city-owned building.
The city refutes that allegation, stating that its focus has always been to end subsidized discrimination inside the Parkway building.
"Cradle could continue to occupy city property, rent-free, if it wasn't making discriminatory policy there," the brief states. "It was only because Cradle chose to use the property for its headquarters that the condition may have had the effect of prohibiting discrimination elsewhere. The city's condition, however, was targeted at the city's subsidy."
Legal fees also disputed
The city's brief also asks that Buckwalter's order for the city to pay the Scouts almost $900,000 in legal fees be thrown out, on the basis that the Cradle lawsuit was meritless.
If the appeals court upholds Cradle's "unconstitutional-condition" claim, the city asks that the legal fees be reduced to anywhere between about $473,000-$528,000.
"[Buckwalter's] sparse fee opinion is flawed because it includes hours derived from the unsuccessful and unrelated equal-protection claim, because it includes hours that were duplicative (for example, Cradle billed for five attorneys at each day of trial) and because the hourly rate was not reasonable," the brief states.
The 90-page brief was accompanied by hundreds of pages of supporting documentation.
Cradle has until Dec. 24 to respond to the brief. Then, the city has 14 days to reply to Cradle's response, if it wishes to.
Then, a three-judge panel will be selected to rule on the matter.
The panel has the option of holding oral arguments prior to issuing a ruling.

The Light Goose Conservation Order opened Saturday, Feb. 9. Unplugged shotguns and electronic calls are allowed for harvesting the geese. Various zone regulations and details also come into the Order. Find more information in the current Waterfowl Guide-available from Game and Parks or online at outdoornebraska.org.
The spectacular sandhill crane migration will be well underway in a few weeks, continuing into March. If you've never seen this great gathering of bird life -- it's a sunrise and sunset wonder along the Platte -- especially between Grand Island and Lexington.
During the day, thousands of cranes can be seen pecking at waste grain and invertebrates in the surrounding fields. Be respectful of private property-do not trespass, park safely on shoulders, and do not disturb the birds. Three great places to view the birds and get more information are from the Crane Trust Nature Center at the Alda exit (call 382-1820), Rowe Sanctuary southwest of Gibbon (call 468-5282), and the Fort Kearney State Recreation Area (call 865-5305). Reserve a viewing blind soon and beat the crowd.
Another spring show is put on by prairie chickens and sharptail grouse. The mating rituals of these birds is both amusing and haunting. The Bessey National Forest near Halsey and the Valentine National Wildlife Refuge are among places on public lands where you can enjoy blind time. Also, several private outfitters offer this -- sandhillsmotel.com out of Mullen and calamusoutfitters.com out of the Burwell area -- the grouse show can run anywhere from mid-March into early May. Dress warm for these outings.
Consider parting with a dollar, maybe even $5 or $10 to help out the Nebraska Wildlife Conservation Fund. By law, dollars from hunting and fishing license sales can only go toward work pertaining to species hunted or fished. That leaves the vast majority of species, both plant and animal, dependent upon the Conservation fund for support.
Go online to learn more at outdoornebraska.org and wait for the home screen picture to appear that pertains to the Nebraska Wildlife Conservation Fund. There are ways to donate even if you don't have a state tax refund coming. On your tax form, the fund is represented by a peregrine falcon logo -- look for it -- and keep our natural resources in mind.

The next generation of Cocktail Class racers
by Shannon Haley
Caroline Fuccella has spent her entire life on Urbanna Creek. This rising freshman is often found boating in Urbanna harbor with her dad Lawrence, mom Jo, and older sister Alexandra. Anyone can see that this close-knit family has deep roots and a great appreciation for the water.
In 2012 when her father joined the Cocktail Class Wooden Boat Racing Association (CCWBRA) and began building his Cocktail Class boat the "Brass Monkey," it was no surprise that his girls became heavily involved in the process. Both Caroline and Alexandra would often be seen at the shop helping Lawrence sand and paint as the deadline for the first Urbanna Cup was quickly approaching. The family effort helped ensure that the boat was race ready in time for the big inaugural event in May 2013.
In 2014 all of Caroline's time and effort finally paid off. This year CCWBRA developed a youth program and Caroline was quick to sign up. Participation is limited to family members of CCWBRA members who are between the ages of 12-16. Caroline was ready for the first-ever youth race to be held at the CCWBRA National Championship event in Rock Hall, Md., on August 16, 2014.
The national race consisted of a total of four youths—three boys and Caroline. The qualifying heat had two boats compete around the course for two races. Each boat had a turn on the middle lane. As the horn blew, Caroline bolted off the line and around the course, winning both qualifying races. She then advanced to the finals against the young man who won the second heat. Her competitor won the first race but crossed lanes on the second race, resulting in a tie. Both were awarded first place cups for the youth event.
Once Caroline is 16 she can race the Women's Class. Fellow racer Kenleighe Longest and I keep joking that we better keep practicing because Caroline will indeed be serious competition when she reaches the age requirement to compete with the adults. In the meantime, keep an eye out for Caroline racing around Urbanna Creek in the #101 "Brass Monkey" and preparing for the next competition. There is no telling what the future might hold for this talented and fearless young racer.

The Miami Heat were able to pull out a win on Sunday afternoon against the Indiana Pacers, but it didn't come easy. LeBron James and Dwyane Wade both had to play an excellent brand of basketball down the stretch after losing fellow All-Star Chris Bosh due to injury.
It wasn't clear what exactly had happened to Bosh when he was forced out of the game, but news from the sideline was that he'd miss the remainder of the game with an abdominal strain. An MRI on Monday morning confirmed that diagnosis and, unfortunately for the Heat, the injury is going to keep him out "indefinitely."
Injury Update: The MRI on @ChrisBosh revealed a strained abdominal muscle. He is out indefinitely.— Miami HEAT (@MiamiHEAT) May 14, 2012
This type of injury is tough to judge and, without the Heat giving any sort of timetable, it's difficult to guess how severe Bosh's injury is -- meaning whether it keeps him out for two games or two weeks is largely up in the air.
As long as Bosh is out, the Heat offense will struggle -- something colleague Mike Prada wrote about on Monday morning.
The Heat will especially miss Bosh offensively. When Bosh is in the game, James and Wade have a pick and pop partner that spaces the floor and opens up driving lanes. When he's not, the paint is clogged, the ball movement stinks and the "my turn" offense that many accuse the Heat of relying on too much rears its ugly head.
For more on the Pacers, head over to Indy Cornrows and SB Nation Indiana. For more on the Heat, check out Peninsula Is Mightier and SB Nation Tampa Bay.

Is there any documentation about such messages ?
I'm trying to use the REST zimbra interface and all works well but message I receive are hard to understand.
Is there any documentation about such messages ?
There is a documentation for REST in source code repository, ZimbraServer/docs/rest.txt.
But I am not sure if it could help you.
So how about showing the messages you've got to us here.
This is a "typical" message I get
<m id="83742" rev="208744" d="1318234892000" s="2396" l="2" cid="83743">
<e d="Marco" t="f" p="MXYZ" a="firstname.lastname@example.com"/>
<su>Re: script cache pin</su>
<fr>Scusate, ho sbagliato destinatari. -- Messaggio originale --</fr>
Quite cryptic.
Is there any explanation ?
Last edited by tullio0106; 10-18-2011 at 08:54 AM.
I guess you have already got it.
But the response format looks xml(SOAP).
So ZimbraServer/docs/soap.txt can help you.
You shold check "GetMsgRequest" or "AddMsgRequest".
Or you can change the format.
You better check this out for that:
ZCS 6.0:Zimbra REST API Reference - Zimbra :: Wiki
My question is very easy I see tags named <m>, <a>, <f> etc... and I shoud immagine what they mean.
Where can I find the meaning ?
XML format is god for me.
Another question You told me about a directory in the server I can't access : where can I find such docs in the net ?
On your server the docs are in /opt/zimbra/docs
And indeed, the result you get is from SOAP API, not REST API.

I usually expose for the highlights and then use an exposure brush on a RAW file to brush back detail in the shadows. That provides a much more natural 'true to the eye' look than any plug in can achieve.
I used this effect a lot in this series of photos where the sky would have otherwise been totally blown out:-
Would be great if dynamic range of full frame sensors would improve a bit sometime soon...
Otherwise I pretty much hate photomatix with a passion.
Very nice pics and a great idea, it has potential.
The only thing I would do is try and reduce the grain/ noise visible in the clouds, it's a bit distracting for me.

I'm sure this may be a dead horse but is the ability to access the status bar of Belle a simple API. Is there any information on how to access the status bar in order to add one. Would this require a completely new rewrite of the default mail app? Is this even possible? I find the fact that without a widget there is absolutely no way to know when you have an email. I'm sure somewhere along it was in the process but with Nokia's abrupt exit from Symbian this one feature may not have found its conclusion. Will this be added in any of the "maintenance" updates? If not... has somebody been working on this and if so... where may I find information on how it is being done?
Thank you.

Welcome to San Francisco's 'Internet of Things'
In this week's issue of the Guardian, we spotlight a pair of pilot projects that introduce a new technology to San Francisco.
Using converted streetlights that can do a lot more than just illuminate city blocks, the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC) ultimately hopes to link a variety of city operations and infrastructure into a centralized, digitally integrated network. Proponents have pronounced the initiative to be an exciting venture into an "Internet of Things" paradigm, in which services are organized around real-time data sharing.
With the pilot projects that are described in greater depth in this week's issue, the SFPUC is testing clusters of energy-efficient LED streetlights that are linked via a wireless network. These "smart" streetlights will initially be used to remotely read city-owned electric meters, and to transmit data from previously installed Municipal Transportation Agency-owned traffic cameras.
The pilots will test how well the "smart" streetlights can manage tasks such as electric vehicle charging monitoring, MTA traffic signal data transmission, "adaptive lighting" that can respond to conditions, and other functions.
But according to a request for proposals (RFP) issued last June by the SFPUC to seek applications for one of these pilots, the list of uses could grow. "Future needs for the secure wireless transmission of data throughout the city," the RFP states, may include "gunshot monitoring," "street surveillance," or "public information broadcasts."
Marketing pitches from the companies that develop these systems and ancillary services provide an idea of the broader visions that are being presented to city governments. Here's a promotional video by IntelliStreets, a firm that applied to test out its product with the SFPUC pilot program, showcasing internal cameras and speakers that a city could opt to add in as part of the package. The SFPUC rejected IntelliStreets' application.
Phillips, a lighting company that is working with Paradox Engineering on a pilot that's currently up and running in San Francisco, has some bright ideas for municipal use of "intelligent outdoor lighting systems." And even Oracle has a plan for cash-strapped city governments that could use its tailored data-management platform in combination with "intelligent" infrastructure, according to the marketing brochure.
The use of "intelligent" digital systems for urban infrastructure still remains largely in the realm of big ideas. And so far, the city's process of introducing this whole concept to the public has barely gotten underway. The SFPUC has initiated some outreach efforts – via newsletters issued by local police captains – in neighborhoods where dimmable "adaptive lighting" would be tested in the forthcoming pilot program.
Depending on whether the SFPUC decides to pursue a broader implementation of the integrated streetlights based on the results of the pilots, the potential exists for these digitally connected systems to be used for monitoring everything from street parking, to traffic flows, to activity on the street. This means a great deal of information could be gathered from public space in real time – and that raises a host of questions.
"Technology can be used for good and for ill," points out American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) Staff Attorney Linda Lye. It's important to ask questions from the outset, she added, to avoid a scenario where "you have a government deploying new technology for one purpose, and using it for other purposes."
Technological innovations, especially 'intelligent' integrative solutions can be tried in an exclusive or 'delusive' way. Also, the systems can either be planned or not planned but tentatively combined from various 'free of cost scraps', which are floating 'in the air'. The second method represents an old 'cowboy' attitude, as the opposite of the real planning, which seems to be lost.
Why is true, serious planning not popular nowadays? Is it true that after the collapse of 'soviet planning economy' our believe in planning and reasoning also more commonly collapsed? Goal-centered disciplined working is no more seen favorable and what ever deregulation, tentative technologies and ad-hock testing is seen overly valuable if not even self-intentional?
People's behavior is nowadays compared, by technical innovators, in a seriously positive way (!) with ants' activities in their heaps, in order to find in this way some unintentional, 'unplanned' organization and structure into the human life. This philosophy is short-ended. Without any serious thinking, without proper mundane policies and without related strong political leadership we may not find a pave path out of the chaos. The whole world rejoiced when Putin in today's Russia removed the ugly light advertisements from the heights of the streets in Moscow. He could not develop the electrical cabling so that it would enable maximal integration with other electrical systems, but let this clips emphasize that there must be some power if there is the will to develop urban environments.
The time is come to start planning the technological society and its infrastructure! True planning cannot be left for ants and their laymen or, sheer businessmen.

Well, we finally got our National League pitchers' duel.
After 17 half-innings in Nationals Park, each team has scored precisely one run.
Nationals starter Ross Detwiler wasn't overpowering, but he gave up just that single run, and unearned to boot. Detwiler threw 104 pitches in six innings, which was actually past his usual curfew. In the seventh, Jordan Zimmermann struck out three Cardinals. In the eighth, Tyler Clippard struck out three Cardinals. In the ninth, Drew Storen struck out two Cardinals, then issued a walk to Pete Kozma before getting pinch-hitter Matt Carpenter on a pop fly.
In the bottom of the ninth, the Nationals start at the top of their order: Jayson Werth, Bryce Harper, Ryan Zimmerman. It's been hard to come by runs in Game 4. But the Nationals need just one.

In "Mood Swings" EP, Miguel Migs and Shades Of Gray have come together to deliver a fine Deep House affair drenched in rich textures, subtle undertones and moody melodies. Aspects of both classic and modern deep house intertwine expertly on these four tracks, creating edge and dynamism that is dance-floor ready.
The release starts off strong with "Create a Mood," a truly deep groover of unparalleled freshness. With richly textured vocals, zippy synth stabs, lush layers, and tightly woven percussion, this track creates a mood of total allure and classic deep house appeal. "Down Underground" brings the late-night party vibes with a thick, sinister bass-line and a hypnotic vocal taking you deeper underground and telling you to dance 'til dawn.
"Let Me" is a feel-good moody jam with a thick, chunky bass-line, sparkling synths, hearty handclaps and an undeniable female voice that teases: "let me". The "Salty Dub" channels more bounce with extra layers of throw back synth chords and a double-boost of boogie.

Britain gets ready for more snow
5:56am Tuesday 5th February 2013 in National News © Press Association 2014
Parts of Britain are braced for a return of snow and gale force winds, less than a fortnight after blizzard conditions brought disruption to schools, airports and traffic networks.
Snow is predicted to fall throughout the morning, with up to 10cm in places by the afternoon along with 60mph to 70mph winds, as experts warned that temperatures were set to continue dropping throughout the week.
A forecaster with MeteoGroup, the weather division of the Press Association, said: "The worst of the snow storms will have been overnight and throughout this morning, with the risk of snow decreasing throughout the day.
"Western Scotland will predominantly get the heaviest snow, with up to 10cm, while northern Ireland and Wales will see up to 4cm and north England up to six. However, other areas, even in the south, might see some light snow storms, hail and sleet.
"There will also be some pretty strong winds throughout the morning, in areas affected by these snow showers, which will result in blizzard conditions."
The forecaster added: "By the end of the week there could be more snow storms around, and even parts of the south may see some snow."
Amber "be prepared" warnings for snow have been issued by the Met Office for many parts of Scotland, including the Highlands and Western Isles, Strathclyde, the south west, Lothian and Borders and Central, Tayside and Fife areas. In England the north-west, north-east and East Midlands are also affected.
Snow which began to fall in these areas overnight will continue into the morning, with some heavy showers and blizzard conditions predicted, it said.
A yellow "be aware" alert for high winds in many regions including Orkney and Shetland, the Highlands and Strathclyde is also in place.
Snow storms brought parts of the country to a standstill at the end of January. Hundreds of drivers were forced to spend the night in their cars on the M6 in Lancashire after more than a foot of snow fell.

The ports Hamburg, Bremerhaven and Antwerp were fine although we were disappointed not to go into Amsterdam due to technical problems. Perhaps we could have been allowed to spend the afternoon in Bremerhaven instead of waiting on the ship in port for 5 hours. However it didn't really spoil our holiday as we found plenty to do. We didn't go on the arranged tours, preferring to find our own way round the ports shopping, sightseeing etc. It is true that the Christmas Markets were not open, but to be honest we have done them before and seem to be full of tinsel and sickly sweets (not our thing). Again we were not disappointed and had not gone on this cruise for them anyway. On reflection we met some nice people, it was relaxing enjoying good food all washed down with a nice glass of wine and beer.
Disembarkation was fine although again queueing was the norm, but we were soon on our way home smoothly and efficiently. So to sum up we found the whole experience a pleasure and good value for money. We would recommend the Balmoral if a smaller ship is for you.

But it's also old news. And by the time the next revision to Q2 GDP rolls around, it will be really old news.
We're in Q3 right now, and the question is: how ugly will it be?
Roubini recently came out and said it will be closer to 0% than 1%. David Rosenberg believes we'll actually get a negative print. JPMorgan also doubts the number will hit 1%. Deutsche Bank, which has been on the very bullish end of the street recently lowered its estimate to 2%.
Anyway, just something to be aware of. Now, grab your popcorn breakfast now for Q2 revisions.

The Town of Plainfield will be replacing 12 vehicles for the administrative team at the Plainfield Police Department.
Darel Krieger, the newly appointed chief of police, asked the council here to move forward with the bid process.
"We are due to order 12 new vehicles," Krieger said. "Basically, I need permission to search for bids."
Clerk-treasurer Wes Bennett said in the recent past the town has been using the state's bid for new vehicles.
Council President Robin Brandgard said, "We have tried and tried to use local dealers but we just cannot get the deal the state can get us."
The cars due to be replaced are used by the administrative team at the department, as well as for the K-9 units.
Brandgard asked Krieger to also look at alternative fuel vehicles.
"Since these are not standard police vehicles, let's see if we can get more energy efficient vehicles," he said. "There are full-size SUVs that are hybrids."
Krieger said he would include hybrid and other energy efficient vehicles in his search during the bid process.
The council gave the department permission to move forward on the vehicle replacement project.
Bennett told the council and Krieger that the work done on the proposal was "exactly what we were looking for."
Krieger said Capt. Eric Lees had helped prepare the proposal for the council.

More than 125,000 vehicles travel on the I-90 outer roadways between Seattle and Bellevue on an average day.
The center roadway runs westbound in the mornings and eastbound in the evenings. High occupancy vehicles traveling eastbound in the mornings and westbound in the evenings must use general-purpose lanes. With this project, we will add HOV lanes for 24-hour use in both directions.
In 2004, 60 to 65 percent of buses heading from Bellevue to Seattle on I-90 during the evening rush hour were 2-14 minutes late. The new outer-roadway HOV lanes will improve the speed and reliability of buses.

Biotech Stock Mailbag: Amicus, Amarin, Oncothyreon
BOSTON (TheStreet) -- This is the last Biotech Stock Mailbag for 2012. I've been writing this column for six years, but without your emails and tweets, the Mailbag wouldn't be possible. Thank you for all your comments, questions and criticism. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. The Mailbag will return, rested and re-energized, in 2013.
@biotechmoney18 writes, "Hey, AF! Nice call on bullish $FOLD on 11/30. Maybe you should do some real DD instead of listening to your [bleep] boss."
I got Amicus Therapeutics (FOLD) wrong. I regret the bad call.
I expected Amicus' Fabry disease drug Amigal to demonstrate a statistically significant kidney response compared to placebo at six months -- the primary endpoint of the pivotal phase III study. [Kidney response was defined as 50% reduction or more in kidney GL3 level at six months.]As reported Wednesday night, the 41% kidney response rate for Amigal patients surpassed the 28% response seen in placebo patients, but the difference was not statistically significant. The study failed. Amicus shares fell by nearly half Thursday. The outcome is absolutely discouraging, and I'm not surprised to see the sharp selloff in Amicus. It's deserved. But I'm also unwilling to write off Amicus because the results of the study are just as frustrating and confusing as they are negative. There seems to be a signal of activity with Amigal that needs more detailed explanation. Unfortunately, Amicus chose not to hold a conference call to discuss the study results. I'll blame its partner GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) for that idiotic decision -- typical Big Pharma bull---t. A full presentation of the Amigal study results is scheduled for the Lysosomal Disease Network World Symposium from Feb. 12 to 15. The 28% response rate in placebo patients is much higher than expected. Why? Female Fabry patients have a lot more variability in GL3 levels, so this may have contributed to the miss. Two-thirds of the enrolled patients in the study were female, but we don't know the breakdown of female responders in each arm. Lower-than-expected baseline GL3 levels (skewed toward the placebo patients) may also have played a role in boosting the placebo response rate higher than normal. Or, variability in the kidney biopsy samples, from which response is determined. Again, we don't know the answer but should get more clarity at the medical conference in February.

The former southwest suburban teacher who became embroiled in a sex scandal with a male student said she wished "with all of my heart" that she could "take it back."
Ashley Blumenshine, 29, of Marseilles, pleaded guilty Friday in Will County Court to a felony charge of traveling to meet a minor, her lawyer, George Lenard, told the Herald-News.
As part of a plea deal with prosecutors, Blumenshine was sentenced to two years of probation and 30 days in jail, with day-for-day credit, and credit for four days served, Lenard said.
Blumenshine, who surrendered to sheriff's deputies Friday to serve her jail sentence, also will have to register as a sex offender for 10 years, Lenard said.
In a letter she wrote in January 2012 that was added to her court file on April 8, Blumenshine wrote that she wished she could undo her actions and has a hard time forgiving herself for what happened.
"In my wildest dreams I never would have thought that this turn of events would have happened to me," she wrote. "... somewhere within a few months time, I lost Ashley.
"I cannot take back what I did; I can only show everyone including myself that I am a good person and one who will never make the same mistake twice."
Blumenshine was charged with aggravated criminal sexual abuse after she was found Jan. 4, 2011, in a car with a male student behind a department store on Route 59 in Plainfield.
In her letter, Blumenshine apologized to the student and his family as well as her family, friends, former students and the Plainfield North High School.
Blumenshine said she has been working as a bank teller, that she bought a house, began dating a church-going man, and that, "most importantly," she found God again.
She also said she would like to go back to school to become a physical therapist.
Blumenshine was a physical education and dance teacher from 2006 to 2011 at Plainfield North, where she coached golf from 2008-10. She was also a summer driver's education teacher in 2008.
Blumenshine resigned from her tenured position after her arrest.

Using natural, restorative ingredients to grow from a small line of pure olive oil-based soaps into a comprehensive collection of exfoliating body scrubs, hydrating body crèmes, advanced facial treatments, soothing bath gels, and aromatherapy candles, is what's given LATHER its status ... and what's made us completely fall in love with the brand!
LATHER never uses synthetic fragrances or colors, is free of paraben preservatives and sulfate cleansing agents, and sources organic ingredients whenever possible. For all of these reasons, plus its clean, simple packaging, LATHER has easily become one of our go-to's for everything bath + body. It's a line designed to help you live a more radiant life, something we think isn't just a privilege, but a right!
