Meanwhile, out on city streets and highways, companies are applying technologies such as optimization software and GPS to streamline their supply chains and reduce gasoline consumption and wear and tear on vehicles. These various applications all boil down to reaping savings by using resources as efficiently as possible.
I'm using these examples of organizations using resources efficiently as a segue way to announce that this will be the final regularly scheduled weekly installment of InfoWorld's Sustainable IT blog. Although InfoWorld recognizes the importance of green IT, we've determined that there a better ways to make use of a specific human resource -- that is, yours truly. Instead of dedicating much of my time to tracking all things green on a weekly basis, I'll cover the topic less frequently while devoting more time to other editorial tasks, such as spending more time with Test Center reviews.
I want to stress that InfoWorld does regard green IT as an important topic that warrants ongoing coverage. Companies of all sizes will continue to struggle with costly waste, and resource shortages -- as well as legislation pertaining to waste management, asset disposal, and carbon emissions. In turn, IT vendors and organizations such as Green Grid, Lawrence Berkeley Labs, AFCOM, the EPA, EPEAT, and Uptime Institute will continue to develop products, services, and practices to address those issues. I intend to keep readers abreast of these key developments.
My two final thought (for now): First, green IT isn't a passing fad. The term "green" does tend to be abused and misused to the point that its very mention may induce involuntary eye-rolling. But embracing sustainable IT products and practices can have a substantial payoff on an organizational level, and on a global level. More companies recognize it now than they did back in 2007, and as awareness increases, that trend will persist.
Second, green IT is not, nor will it ever be, simply a plug-and-play product. Yes, vendors are adding green features to their wares, such as power saving capabilities and modularity for easier upgrades and recycling. That only goes so far: After all, you could replace every server in your data center with the most energy-efficient machines on the market and still have a woefully inefficient facility if they're all running at 20 percent utilization while your CRAC units are running at 50 degrees.
Like good IT security, green IT requires constant monitoring and measuring to assess where you are and where you need to be. It requires planning, policies, and end-user training to ensure that everyone is on the same page and carrying out the grand vision.
This story, "Green IT means making the most of what we've got," was originally published at InfoWorld.com. Follow the latest developments in green IT and read more of Ted Samson's Sustainable IT blog at InfoWorld.com.

Local Rule of Court 23 - TRIAL MANAGEMENT CONFERENCES
All complaints for divorce and all post-divorce matters which have already been scheduled by the Judicial Secretary for contested trial will have a trial management/settlement conference. A trial management order shall issue from the Court, setting out the preparation required for the trial management/settlement conference. BOTH COUNSEL AND BOTH PARTIES MUST BE PRESENT IN OPEN COURT FOR THE TRIAL MANAGEMENT/SETTLEMENT CONFERENCE.
To prepare for the trial management/settlement conference in divorces, each attorney shall mail/fax/hand-deliver to the other a series of proposed filings to comply with Local Rule 10. [See text of Rule 10 below.] The exact scheduling of the exchanges between counsel can be detailed in the pre-trial order which the Court will issue. In any event, however, no later than the day of the trial management/settlement conference, counsel shall FILE with the clerk of the court one document, signed by both counsel, stipulating all MARITAL, SEPARATE, and DISPUTED STATUS assets and debts. If assets or debts are discovered/acquired after the Rule #10 filing, counsel may apply to the court by motion for an amendment; otherwise, the filing at time of the trial management/settlement conference will be binding and conclusive at trial.
At the trial management/settlement conference the following matters will be dealt with:
- Date for conclusion of any remaining discovery.
- Date for exchange of binding witness lists.
- Date for exchange of pre-numbered exhibits (wife) and pre-lettered exhibits (husband), the admissibility of which is not contested.
- Any other pre-trial matters counsel may wish to raise.
- A formal settlement conference. At the settlement conference issues will be defined and narrowed. Following that, parties and counsel will withdraw from the courtroom for negotiation and possible agreed resolution of outstanding issues. Counsel and parties will report the outcome of their negotiation in open court the same day. If an agreement is reached settling the case, the court will hear the agreement and--if indicated--bind the parties instanter. If no agreement has been reached, the issues remaining for trial will be noted and counsel will reduce the same to an Order Pursuant to Trial Management Conference.
Local Rule of Court 10 - MARITAL AND SEPARATE PROPERTY AND DEBT
At least forty-eight (48) hours before the day of trial, the parties shall file with the Clerk three (3) JOINTLY EXECUTED AGREED STIPULATIONS as to real and personal property, setting forth, pursuant to the criteria of Tenn. Code Ann. § 36-4-121: (1) the real and personal separate property and debt of each of the parties; (2) the real and personal marital property and debt of the parties; (3) the remaining real and personal property and debt of the parties, the character of which is disputed and to be decided by the Court. This last item consists of all real and personal property and debt of the parties not covered under the first two stipulations.
If either party separately desires--or the parties together desire to do so--he/she/they may additionally propose to the Court, at trial, after complying with the foregoing paragraph, a division of all or part of the marital property. The Court is not bound by the proposal, but will give proper consideration to the wish(es) of the party/parties.

The Titans sued the University of Southern California and head coach Lane Kiffin in Davidson County (Tenn.) Chancery Court on Monday, The (Nashville) Tennessean reported. The lawsuit alleges Kiffin and USC persuaded former Titans RB coach Kennedy Pola to breach his contract with Tennessee, according to The Tennessean report.
Pola accepted USC's offensive coordinator job on Saturday, angering Titans head coach Jeff Fisher, who strongly criticized Kiffin for not asking him for permission to interview Pola, The Tennessean reported Saturday.
According to The Tennessean, the lawsuit filed Monday alleges that "Kiffin and USC's actions through him were part of a course and pattern of conduct fostered by Kiffin and USC to use improper methods and means to the direct harm and damage of parties to contract; to interfere with an existing contract includes the breach thereof."
The lawsuit, according to The Tennessean, also alleges that Pola, per his contract with the Titans, agreed he would "not under any circumstance solicit discussions or entertain employment with any other person or entity during the term without (being) given written permission to do so."

We have two identical rockets.
One rocket is located on one side of the earth and one is located directly on the other side of the earth.
At a predetermined time, each takes off with burns such that they each reach 0.99c, one rocket is therefore going along the position x-axis and the other is heading along the negative x-axis.
Question 1: What is the relative speed of the rockets? 1.98c
Question 2: If each shot a laser at each other as a signal, will they ever see the light? Yes.

Sun, sea and sand… Tampa, on the coast of Florida, is a dream come true for sun worshipers and water lovers alike.
Tampa is one of the fastest growing regions in Florida and the 45 km beach along the Gulf of Mexico is certainly a big draw. Yet tourism is not the sole raison-d'être here and unlike other places in Florida, prices remain affordable.
A big attraction in Tampa is Fort DeSoto Park, a combination of untamed nature and an old fort. Yesterday's Air Force is also worth a visit with its impressive aeronautical exhibition. Children will love Busch Gardens, where African animals run wild, as well as the local amusement park.

Why the Dems should eliminate the filibuster on Motions to Proceed NOW
by RT, Tue Apr 27, 2010 at 09:06:06 AM EDT
Given the current state of play over Wall Street reform, I think the Dems are blowing an opportunity right now to exercise their authority under Article I, Section 5 to determine what the Senate rules are, and set a valuable political precedent, establishing its authority for being able to change the rules by majority vote.
The argument for waiting for January to rewrite the Senate rules is that the incoming Senate won't have given its implied consent to the pre-existing rules by operating under those rules.
The arguments against waiting for January are fourfold:

- Summary: Set in the mythical world of burly Vikings and wild dragons, and based on the book by Cressida Cowell, the action comedy tells the story of Hiccup, a Viking teenager who doesn't exactly fit in with his tribe's longstanding tradition of heroic dragon slayers. Hiccup's world is turned upside down when he encounters a dragon that challenges he and his fellow Vikings to see the world from an entirely different point of view. [Dreamworks Animation]… Expand

Rouses you in conventional ways, but it's also the rare animated film that uses 3-D for its breathtaking spatial and emotional possibilities.
Who would have thought a fire-breathing monster could be one of the most adorable on-screen critters since Babe?
While almost entirely family-friendly, the film deserves its PG rating: One plot point near the very end would have totally freaked my tender childhood sensibilities.
In steering a course between the rock of rude humor and the hard place of perilous drama, How to Train Your Dragon flies high.
The multiply authored screenplay is based very loosely on Cressida Cowell's popular children's books, but it owes just as much to "E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial" and the John Lennon songbook.

Oct 26, 2010i love some of theese CGI kids films . i shouldnt eveen call it that it should be referd to as a family film because like shrek people of all ages can enjoy theese films . its a fun little story about a viking town who fight dragons and a young kid names hic up who want to be a dragon slayer but doesnt have the build or stomach for it . its very well voice acted i thought the guy who did hic up did a great job . he was very funny and fit the charicter perfect . the action and camera shots where amazing i wached this with my neices and nephews and they where just wowed by it as was i . great film probubly best of the year.… Expand
Dec 25, 2012I remember watching this in the theater and enjoying it, but just watched it again tonight, and it was sooooo much better than the first time. Probably because it was in 3D the first time, and all we are watching are for the affects! An absolutely brilliant film, and I have to say that after watching it tonight it is now one of my favorites of all time. Just a wonderful story. And the final scene in which Hiccup realizes he's missing part of a limb, and the dragon whisks him away...beyond touching!!! Will watch this over and over!!!… Expand
Dec 21, 2010Based on a novel with the same name, writer William Davies was able to turn this kids story into a touching and deep first-class screenplay that is really rare for Dream Works. Hiccup, voiced by the devastating and believable Jay Baruchel, is a weak and low self-esteem little boy who lives in a world of Vikings. His dad and his friends, all around him, their life mission is to kill dragons and Hiccup is expected to do the same. Going through training and a lot of trying, Hiccup was not successful. Instead of killing dragons, Hiccup decided to read books on the dragons and found out they are not that bad. The belief was brought on after Hiccup met a dragon, who was considered the most dangerous dragon and did not try to eat him. This created a interesting but predictable twist for the audience to eat up on. Hiccup named his "friend" Toothless. Months go by as Hiccup trains his dragon friend Toothless to fly since he was injured when Hiccup found him. Throughout the training, their relationship begins to build and we see that Hiccup is falling in love. The writer really wanted us to cry at this point because Hiccup's friend Toothless was discovered by the town people and he's being killed by them. At the end, we know that dragons aren't as bad and Vikings shouldn't be killing them. This really looks like Disney's work because the message and the tone of the film is based on being friends and nice and all. At first, I thought this was not Dream Work's work, but after checking up on it, I was surprised. This looked more like Disney's cheesy work than Dream Work's. How To Train Your Dragon is classy, funny, kid-friendly, and intelligently scripted. It is one of the best films of the year.
OscarBuzz: Best Animated Feature, this will go head to head against Toy Story 3. Even though Toy Story 3 definitely has a lead, if it didn't win, How To Train Your Dragon would snatch the Oscar.

May 20, 2014You know 2010 was a pretty packed year for good animated movies, I mean we had this, Toy Story 3, Tangled, Megamind, Despicable Me, Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole. All of them are good movies in their own right but i would have to say that this is my second favorite animated movie to come out that year behind Toy Story 3 of course. Dreamworks Animation has always had some decent movies a few being Antz, Shrek, Kung Fu Panda, Megamind, but it seems that people always put them behind in the race with Pixar. ill honest here and say that this movie is better then the last 3 Pixar films without a doubt. The voice cast is freaking great, the animation was top notch, the action/flight scenes were awesome, and the story does have it's heartfelt moments when needed. The only problem i have with the movie is that the story never really seems to take off, for me it seemed that the writers played it safe but other then that i loved it.
Overall i give it a 8.0 One problem i had when i first watched the film was Jay Baruchel as Hiccup his voice just didn't seem to fit but after a couple of times watching it his voice grew on me. I really can't wait to watch How to Train Your Dragon 2 but i already know it's not going to be as good as this one though, The trailers do make it look as if it will be just as fun filled as the first so count me in for a theater viewing.… Expand
Jan 6, 2014This can be sort of heartwarming in parts, but it is mostly generic. The kid befriends a dragon, dragons and humans hate each other, the kid brings the two groups together. Also, there's a scene where they think the dragon's dead, but he's really not. Yeah, you've seen it all before.… Expand

I don't know if it's just me, but it appears that since the Gigapan website was changed that fewer people seem to be clicking and viewing Gigapans.
A few months ago when I looked at the most recent Gigapans there were at least 1 or 2 views, if not more, every day for almost every panorama. Today I went through 8 pages of panoramas and every single one of them had 0 views. It wasn't until halfway down the 9th page was there some views. I wonder if the site change did that since it requires Adobe Flash or if it's just because people aren't as interested any longer? I guess only the people at Gigapan know for sure.

Hi nathantw,
The problem is that it is too hard to get to 'MOST RECENT', it used to be at the top, one click away- now its almost non-findable to the unacquainted user.
To find it requires all these steps: click on 'View' (have to choose between Gigapans, Galleries, Competitions, Snapshots), OK, user chose the right option, now the viewer MUST see the 'MOST POPULAR' by default (these will now ALWAYS be the 'MOST POPULAR' as they are the only ones shown by default). Now, to find 'MOST RECENT' a user has to know to click on 'MOST POPULAR' and switch it to 'MOST RECENT' in the search bar (and nothing happens) because then the user must know or find to click on the search magnifier glass all the way over to the right. That is 4 unintuitive steps and there is never a direct link to 'most recent'.
Nobody is looking at the most recent GigaPans anymore, but there are plenty of people looking at the 'most popular'. A viewer really has to go out of their way to find 'MOST RECENT' stream.
Gigapan.org, please consider adding a link in the menu, under view, that would take people directly to 'MOST RECENT' without having to go through the search interface and all these steps, or, preferably, put a direct link back up at the top to 'MOST RECENT' like there used to be.
Viewing the most recent Gigapans was always my favorite part of visiting, and it rewards the panorama creators with some exposure. Really, 'MOST RECENT' are 'MOST IMPORTANT' as it rewards people to create content. If they are never viewed, why bother?
I suppose this new method emphasizes the content that is already created, so be sure to categorize and tag your content well so that it can be found in searches.

I agree that the new home page does not make it easy to find new stuff. I'd go further and say that it doesn't encourage browsing. I think there needs to be less space given to hype and more space given to thumbnails of gigapans so that newcomers can immediately get a flavour of what is on offer.
I don't want to sing my own praises, but I use the tools I wrote and put up at http://www.kilgore.org.uk/cgi-bin/surfing/surfe… and every time I use the "Show random gigapans" I find something that amazes me.

I agree a 'RANDOM' GigaPan would be great. I also really miss the easy access to the 'MOST RECENT', I truly am interested in what other people are making and posting, I always thought it was the most egalitarian part of Gigapan – not everyone can have a 'most popular' Gigapan, but you can be right at the top for a short while with 'MOST RECENT', now no more.
661, I think your mashup pages are awesome! A great way to discovery new Gigapans and presented very nicely too. Browsing and meandering among GigaPans is what is needed. We need more tools to make this easier.
I would propose Gigapan.org make a 'labs' section where people like you and I can share our mashups with others in a manner under the gigapan.org domain so that there are not any license issues with the content creators. Kind of like the old Google labs, how about http://labs.gigapan.org ? Gigapan would get free labor and great code out of us and end users could try new things, and as it would be a 'beta' lab, it would not have the expectation of perfection.

These are great suggestions, and thank you. I'll see what we can do to get these on the next schedule. If you would like to send us other suggestions please feel free to submit a General Inquiry under Contact Us at the bottom of the page.

I just rechecked and there's now a dedicated area for Recent Gigapans. We just need to clock on "View" (not one of the options that pops up) scroll down the page a little instead of looking at the top menu bar for a button there's a section that says Recent Gigapans.
Thanks for doing that.

While the changes that nathanw mention do help, it is still not easy to find the most recent button.
There are a few nice things about the new site but in truth not many. I do not feel encouraged to put my new gigapans up so have tended to keep them on my computer.

Phil, I agree that there really isn't much motivation or incentive to create/post new Gigapans if nobody is really going to see them. I enjoyed creating Gigapans to be shared and it was a fun "challenge" to see if we could get the "interesting" count up. The way the site is set up now, well, who cares? Unless it was the most popular Gigapan nobody will ever really see your posts.

Yes, the most recent GigaPans should be more visible, and more easily accessible. A fix is in the works.

I ended up creating a link in my shortcuts to the most recent pans and bypassng the default landing page. Only a personal fix though. It would be nice to see see a page of most recent shot thumbnails or some kind of brief summary.

I have the same complaints as above, but also wonder how search engines, say google.com, consider gigapan titles, tags, and descriptions as results for searches. Seems there would be more hits if gigapans were considered higher for search results.
Yes, a random button, a most recent button, and I am sure a few others would be nice to have easy access to. Who does the useability studies for these websites?
Photosynth.net is another panorama site that seems to get very few hits, but I like the setup there with no minimum size that allows small panoramas. Gigapan and Photosynth both allow better viewing of panoramas compared to Flickr (which limits to 20MB anyway).

I agree with the above.. gigapan org needs to allow recent gigapans get more exposure. One extra click – for visitors new to the site – loses a lot of hits.

And the order of "Recent" Gigapans needs to to be based on when the upload is FINISHED, not when it STARTS.
I just finished a big upload that took 3.5 days. This Gigapan didn't appear until the upload was finished, but when it DID appear it was so many pages back that no one has found it. The only views of it are my own.

Tim, most often the simple ideas are the best ones. Thanks for the idea, I have now done the same.

A local road was closed Friday morning as crews battle a house fire for the second time in less than 12 hours.
The fire rekindled this morning after crews put it out the first time Thursday night.
The fire first broke out around 9 p.m. in Midland on Ashman between Waldo and Stratford Woods Drive.
Police had to shut down Ashman while crews worked to put out the fire.
There's no word on if anybody was hurt.

A huge fire in downtown St. Johnsbury.
The fire is at the Artistic Gardens building on 430-438 Railroad Street. Fire officials say multiple departments from Vermont and New Hampshire are on scene. The street has been shut down as crews work to contain the fire.
The fire began this afternoon and has been raging through the evening. So far the Red Cross says at least eight units in the building have been affected and more units also sustained heavy damage.
Witnesses tell us the building dates back to 1879. Diana Chaloux-LaCerte was on Railroad Street shopping with her mother. Her husband Micah took this video. They say the flames were shooting out from the upstairs apartments.
"We had literally just walked by maybe five minutes earlier and it was like no, we don't need anything in there, so we crossed the street and walked down towards the other end and that's when the fire trucks started coming down," says Chaloux-LaCerte. "You just came around the corner and flames were just shooting right out."
"My father's house is very close to there so we can still see the smoke coming up," she added. "It was about at least 2 hours later and there were still flames coming up."
The Red Cross officials assisted those displaced by the fire.

The ball popped out of Greg Jennings' hands as he hit the ground. It looked like the Green Bay Packers wide receiver fumbled after a six-yard catch. The Giants jumped on top of the ball. It looked like they might have it, but a review ruled that Jennings was down before the ball spring loose.
Judge for yourself.
And here's the animated GIF version of the same play.
The Giants thought they had it. Head coach Tom Coughlin challenged the play. When the ruling came back, you could almost see the steam coming out of Coughlin's ears.

It was big break for the Packers. They kept the ball and scored five plays later, when running back John Kuhn found the end zone after Rodgers hit him on an eight-yard pass.

Eagles Fall to Bruins
FORT MYERS, Fla. – Reggie Chambers scored a game-high 19 points as Belmont defeated FGCU by a score of 92-74 Saturday afternoon in Alico Arena.
With the win the Bruins improve to 13-7 and 9-3 in the Atlantic Sun Conference. The Eagles fall to 9-15 and 5-8 in the conference.
Belmont hit 11-of-18 3-pointers in the first half and didn't look back as they headed into halftime with an 18 point cushion. The Eagles shot the ball well going 7-of-15 from behind the arc but were never able to come within striking distance of the Bruins.
The Eagles showed heart and battled the Bruins point for point in the second half as they scored 44 points after only managing 30 in the first. Freshman Reggie Chambers (Miramar, Fla.) led the way for the Eagles with 19 points on 6-of-14 shooting, while dishing out six assists and grabbing four rebounds. Junior Derrick O'Neil (Moreno Valley, Calif.) chipped in with 15 points, five assists, and five rebounds.
Andy Wicke led the way for Belmont with 17 points on 6-of-10 shooting, including 5-of-9 from behind the arc. Jon House and Matthew Dotson also chipped in 17 points, while Alex Renfroe added 15 on 6-of-8 shooting.
The Eagles will be back in action Monday night when they battle conference foe Lipscomb in Alico Arena. Tip-off is set for 7 p.m.

INDIANAPOLIS — This year's Hendricks County Family Day at Victory Field starts at 1:35 p.m. June 23 as the Indianapolis Indians take on the Charlotte Knights, the Triple-A affiliate of the Chicago White Sox.
This annual event is sponsored by Metropolis, Visit Hendricks County, and Hendricks Regional Health.
All Hendricks County residents may purchase special two-for-one tickets online at IndyIndians.com or in person at Victory Field using the promo code "Hendricks."
Vouchers are also available at Metropolis, Visit Hendricks County, and Hendricks Regional Health.
As an added bonus, because it's a Sunday, children ages 14 and younger will receive a voucher when they enter the stadium for a free lunch, which includes a hot dog, bag of chips, and a bottle of water.
This is the first time the event will be held on a weekend instead of the traditional weeknight game.
"We're so excited that we were able to have this event during a weekend day game this year to hopefully provide an opportunity for more Hendricks County families to enjoy Indians baseball," said Lance Angle, general manager of Metropolis Mall. "We're proud supporters of this day because it's such a great community event."
The certificates can be exchanged at the Indians Box Office for tickets prior to or on the day of the event. Guests can choose from $10 outfield lawn seats, $11 reserved or $15 box seats.
"The Indianapolis Indians have long appreciated the support we have received from the civic and business leaders of Hendricks County," said Cal Burleson, vice president and general manager of the Indianapolis Indians. "Our thanks to Metropolis Mall, Hendricks Regional Health, and Visit Hendricks County for providing this wonderful opportunity to Hendricks County residents."
Participants are encouraged to stop by the Metropolis Mall and Hendricks Regional Health booths in center field prior to the game for special goodies and chances to win prizes.

CENTRAL ILLINOIS -- April showers may bring may flowers, but they are also bringing strong storms, heavy rain, water over roadways and in basements.
The Illinois State Police are asking drivers to take extra precaution when on the roads.
"We really recommend that people are slowing down and paying attention during this time. You always want to use a greater following distance from the vehicles ahead of you when the weather is inclement," said Trooper Dustin Pierce.
Pierce also said do not drive through any water going over roadways, "You can't tell by looking at the water how deep the water is. It only takes about 12 inches of water to sweep the average vehicle off the roadway."
Anne Fox with the Central Illinois American Red Cross says walking through flood water can be just as dangerous.
"If you're walking, its much like driving, don't get in moving flood water because it takes very little to start a human being washing them down the street or a stream, whatever it might be," said Fox.
For some families in Central Illinois that water will be where it's not supposed to be. Jason Fletcher with Servpro said their already seeing issues.
Fletcher said, "The biggest thing is the ground is so saturated there's no where for the water to go and we will see a lot of groundwater runoff with this process that's going on and sump pumps are going to be worked extremely, extremely hard and many have already been worked extremely hard this spring and quite frankly, weren't hardly used last year whatsoever."
Servpro crews will be working 'round the clock in this storm.
Fletcher said if you a homeowner is having issues there are things you can do to prevent further damage, "Anything that would have color in it on carpet, get that up, remove that. Any furniture you've got raise it up off the floor, either put 2x4s under it or put tinfoil underneath the legs of furniture."
Fox with the Red Cross said volunteers will be standing by if they are needed. She encourages everyone to keep their eyes to the skies.
"Keep tuned to their tv and their radio, watch the conditions, stay away from flood water, keep yourself and your children safe," said Fox.

I'm in Australia and have just purchased a Lumia 800 from Vodafone locally. The device came with Nokia Music installed, I then had an alert saying an update is available. The update wouldn't install stating "This application is not available for your device"
I then uninstalled Nokia music thinking that would do the trick and let me update properly.
Unfortunately not, now I can't reinstall Nokia music and I don't want to do wipe my phone and start again.
Can someone help? I know Nokia music is available in Australia, so I'm a bit lost??
09-03-2012 15:54 - edited 09-03-2012 16:29
Hey Strads, Welcome to the Nokia Forum!
Have you tried to reinstall it, If you go to Marketplace > applications and find the Nokia Music application you will be able to re-download it onto your device for free.
If you are not able to install it through marketplace OTA then you will be able to install it via Zune software on your PC is you connect via USB.
I hope this helps.
09-03-2012 16:10
When you go into Marketplace, do you have a section called "Nokia Collection"?
You should be able to get it in there. If not then check for updates through Zune.
You could try downloaded the app through Zune on your computer.
09-03-2012 20:45
I've tried all those but no luck. It does show in the Nokia Collection but it won't let me install it. The error says its not available for this device, even though its a Lumia 800 bought locally that came with the Nokia Music app.
Please help as this was one of the main reasons I got this phone, without it Id consider returning it.
09-03-2012 21:56
10-03-2012 6:16
Doesn't a hard reset require a complete reconfig of everything??
Last.fm isn't available in Oz so no go there, plus buying from Nokia music is cheaper than Zune.
All very annoying really.
10-03-2012 12:44
I never had Mix Radio on my device for whatever reason (even Nokia fails to comment on this).
I once changed my account to a different country which resulted in an update for Nokia Music, but still no Mix Radio. While now back using an account for my own country, I'm still on the 220.127.116.119 version with still no Mix Radio.
I do have Nokia Collection in my Marketplace, but no Nokia Music application (neither via Zune on PC).

Cruz and Youngquist Earn Northwestern Mutual Academic Honor
FORT MYERS, Fla. – FGCU Athletics has named sophomore men's cross country runner Argeo Cruz (Immokalee, Fla./Immokalee) and senior volleyball libero Holly Youngquist (Estero, Fla./Evangelical Christian HS) as the second recipients of the Northwestern Mutual Academic Student-Athletes of the Month award. Cruz and Youngquist are the Academic Student-Athletes of the Month for November.
Each month, the FGCU Sports Information Department and Athletic Academic staff will choose an Eagle as the Northwestern Mutual Academic Student-Athlete of the Month. Factors in the selection for this honor will be a combination of superior athletic and overall academic success.
Named one of three unanimous selections to the A-Sun Academic All-Conference team this season and being one of two men's cross country runners to represent the Green and Blue for the first time at the Division I NCAA South Regional, Cruz has been the top finisher for the Eagles in four of the six competitions this season, including a first place finish at the season-opening FGCU Invitational. Placing 25th overall at the Atlantic Sun Conference championship, Cruz helped the Eagles to a pair of top three finishes this season, leading the squad to a first place finish at the season-opening FGCU Invite. Taking seventh overall in the field of 214 runners, Cruz picked up the program's first-ever A-Sun Runner of the Week for his effort at the Disney World Cross Country Classic. The Immokalee, Fla. product owns a 3.59 cumulative GPA and also holds six of the program's top 10 all-time 8K times, including the top three times on the list.
"Argeo is a great example of what hard work will get you," said cross country head coach Cassandra Harbin. "This is certainly well-deserved recognition for Argeo, as he is what FGCU strives for in a student-athlete. He gets the job done in the classroom, as well as, in the competitive arena, and I am very proud of him for this honor."
Youngquist, the 2011 A-Sun Preseason Libero of the Year and three-time A-Sun All-Academic honoree, earned a spot on the All-Conference second team. The Estero, Fla. product, who earned second team honors in 2010, led FGCU in digs (466; 4.16 per set), while ranking third in assists and fifth in service aces. Earning a 3.79 cumulative GPA in resort and hospitality management, the libero is the lone Eagle on the A-Sun's first All-Academic team.
Youngquist, who finished her career in fourth place in the A-Sun Conference record books with 1,652 career digs, will graduate in the Spring of 2012 with a Bachelors degree in Resort and Hospitality Management.
"I can't think of anyone more deserving of the honor," said volleyball head coach Dave Nichols. "Holly brings focus and maturity to everything that she does. Not only was she our best player all season long, but she is an even better person. Holly is a walking example of what a true student-athlete should be. Her commitment to excellence runs through the court, the classroom and all that she does in her life.

PITTSBURGH -- The Pirates have hired Todd Tomczyk to be the team's next head athletic trainer. Tomczyk will take the position most recently held by Brad Henderson, who was let go by the team at the end of the season. Henderson had been the club's head trainer since December 2002.
Tomczyk, who spent the last five seasons as an assistant trainer with the Dodgers, already has ties to Pittsburgh. He is a Bethel Park, Pa. native and earned his sports medicine degree from Duquesne University.
Before joining the Dodgers, Tomczyk, 35, spent eight years as a trainer in the Indians' organization. He worked at four different Minor League levels and spent another two seasons as the organization's Minor League rehabilitation coordinator.
The Pirates will continue to search for an assistant athletic trainer. Mike Sandoval, who held that title since November 2000, was also recently dismissed.

Please check the full size image. There are clear visible vertical lines, which I can't get rid of. I checked on two calibrated monitors here
Here's a 200% crop
I see the banding on my monitor. I never experienced that with my dp2m.
Try the topaz denoise trial version. It will remove banding noise. In case you want to buy it, there are plenty of coupons floating around to bring the price down.

Thanks Collin; much appreciated. You can probably tell, I'm a big fan of these cameras.
I like your image; as you say, "Somewhat noisy, but loads of detail". Noise is relatively easy to deal with, if you need to, but if you print (as I know you do), then leaving the noise as shot (IMHO) and test printing to see what the interaction will be between the frequency/distribution of the noise and the inbuilt stochastic characteristics of how the printer puts the ink on the paper before doing anything to the noise seems sensible. This noise above will not in
any way be a negative in an image, I believe.

I have never even thought of that - good point! Would likely be slightly different, as well, depending on what size the print is. This is going to be interesting for sure. May take quite a bit of testing to nail this down.

Very hard to say. It had been raining for weeks and eveything was very mossy. But it is just a question of white balance and easely to correct.
Checked the file again and you are right it is far to green.
Here is a better version. (Changed the other post as well, thanks!)

@jede:I tried to analyse your X3F file, and see your problem, that's a very common issue of a new Foveon user, b'cause not like previous PP sofwares, SPP is tricky and the camera settings are overset.Your dog will be nice when
-reduce contrast -.7, sharpness -.8,exposure -.3 .
-while X3F fill light +.8 and all 3 noise reduction at max.
Don't panic to a new unacquaintance, take time to get to accustom with your camera settings and SPP and enjoy your new toy.
You have a lot of experience with this sensor and SPP, I believe.
Would be nice to see the corrected file!

Contas: thank you.
Interested in seeing how far you can go with battling the issues Jede. I suspect your sensor is a bit underperforming but it seems like the problem is exacerbated with darker images.
General question: does the Foveon sensor not do as well as other sensors when you are trying to bring out some detail in shadow areas?
I am new to SPP and I welcome all input so I know the potential shortcomings of the sensor. It does seem picky with exposure. But that's fine with me.

Collin Orthner: it is also my experience working with printing (well, not anymore, but I did it for quite some time) that 50% on screen viewing gives a fair estimate of what the actual print will look like and on top of that you can factor in print dithering depending on paper choice and print size. "Grainy" looking prints with good acuity usually print very well on my preferred papers.
I would think the DP files would hold up well in that regard.

Forum conscience? I am just posting my opinion. Here is the phrasing which I objected to. It uses the tactics of ridicule to discredit an opinion different than your own. When someone gets unreasonably and unfairly hostile like this, I feel compelled to speak out:
"your last oh so miniscule wrong pixel findings are pointing to you as being a little obsessed with proving the sensor is no good."

I think it is unreasonable when Jede sees a few undifined pixels in somebody elses picture @ 200% and make a big thing about it. That is my opinion.
In a post he states
Well well, seems that there are people who are a little touchy here about criticizing Sigma or the Foveon sensor. I don't even know if you're looking at the same issue on Juan's photo (I doubt it based on your comments), but if you're happy with your camera, that's ok. It's not serious, but it's there, and not on my unit only. Not a little line, but several lines across the image with constant pattern, on bright color surfaces.
It looks like he sees new defects all the time.
I did not see any proof of all the several lines acros the image with constant pattern, on bright surfaces. You should see my sentence in that context.
Tactics to ridicule? Check the file, I would say!
Could be that he sees things I did not see, but I doubt it.
I never put any words in his mouth which weren't there.
Isn't me being a little touchy here, personal? I wouldn't use the word attack. To big in this context. You make things bigger as they are, so lets stay on the topic.
On top of this I think Jede is perfectly capable to speak out for himself.
But if you feel compelled you should do so!

On top of this I think Jede is perfectly capable to speak out for himself.
I actually thought we had this conversation over with, but I'll respond as you seem to expect it. I'm not very keen to respond on your posts, because as carstenw said, you have a confrontational style to express your opinions, which I feel leaves little room for objective rational discussion. I'm not interested in debating, so hopefully we can leave this discussion here. Additionally, I've been in a hurry for several days now with other things, so explaining myself here hasn't been the top priority. Neither do I really feel obliged to.
First of all, thanks for the replies concerning the issue. mortyb, contas and glacierpete, I will try some tricks mentioned by you in my future post processing. I have Nik's Dfine bought for noise removal, and one can get the effect minimized in Photoshop by using masking and brushes on the areas affected. It's a a careful job, but I've saved some nice images with it. I'll see how the output is when using SPP in the way contas described. I'm not yet feeling the SPP is giving me a "flow experience" that I have gotten with Aperture and Photoshop. Workflow feels a bit awkward, and I need more experience and practice in order to make it feel fluent.
It seems that the appearance intensity is dependent on monitor, calibration and knowing what to look for. We all have unique vision and visual thinking patterns, so for some it might be easier to see. My 15" Retina MBP has a pixel density of 220ppi, which is rather high compared to for example 27" Cinema Display with only 109ppi. It really seems to bring flaws out in a way no other display has before. I'm not eyeing images at 200% (or 300% zoom as you wanted to exaggerate), but the effects are visible when simply viewing landscape images in full screen in Aperture or Photoshop. SPP doesn't support Retina display mode yet (we just got Photoshop support in December, thank god), so it's hard to evaluate the results directly in SPP. I like to watch my images in full screen mode (again, WITHOUT zooming), because I seldom have the interest to print them.
Like I said before, my intention was to present an issue which I have learned to observe in many of my images taken with this particular camera. Reading at your posts, I sense that we are not even talking about the same issue here. Maybe I have described it badly, sorry for that, so I'll try once more. For the last time I hope. The problem is, that in some images there seems to be lines going across the image on regular intervals, which cannot be parts of the scene or flaws appearing in the specific environment. It's a technical pattern, that is most visible in bright even surfaces on dark scenes with long exposures, and in some sense also in outdoor photos with big sky areas and large even bright surfaces. On landscape pictures the lines are vertical, and on portrait pictures they appear to be horizontal. The dog image was just one example, and using juan's image as example might have required a better explanation. Here I've cropped the top right corner of the windmill image, and cranked the contrast to maximum. I see those very faint horizontal patterns here on my monitor, please have a look. They were visible even on unedited Flickr image, which is why I chose to use it as an example. If you can't see anything, then I'm putting this under the factors mentioned above, and you really don't have to be obliged to comment further. Click for 100% crop. Sorry juan for exploiting your image in this way
Bigger here
I know when to expect the issue, and it isn't visible on all of my photos. And the dog image is the extreme example, so we all should treat it as just that. Leaving noise control sliders on the middle in SPP seems to eliminate the issue on majority of images. It's not critical, it doesn't make my images worse, doesn't affect the fundamentals of photography, and most certainly isn't a problem for majority of the users. Still, it's there, and each and everyone can decide if it's worth noting. I'm new to Foveon sensor, but this is something I haven't experienced with my previous cameras, and that's why I brought it up in the first place.
This is my last response on this issue, as I really have better things to do (taking images for example). So hopefully we can leave it here.

I don't doubt the resolution at full size, but at websize, I think many of the photos from the DP2M look a bit oversharpened, too crunchy, for my taste. I guess the amount of detail makes it harder to resize without getting that crunchy look.

It easier to downsize files from Foveon, cause they are not interpolated to start with. Just takes good algorithm and not too much sharpening (I agree lots of DP2M shots look a bit oversharpened).
Regular Bayer is much harder, I runned into same problem when doing some pano which ended at 30 mpix, no way to get non-jaggy lines on things that are straight in real world..
And that banding issue, try simply over-expose a bit, when its possible. Kinda like old Canon sensors or Kodak, its base ISO camera anyway..

Well I am sorry Jede if I am to confrontational, but I am glad you took the time to show what you ment in that particular image. In no way you are obliged to do so
but since you went so far in pointing out your findings and I couldn't see them; made me a little irritated. Also when one does enjoy a camera so much for it's output in the kind of shots one wants to take, it kind of raised my haires in deed when you hear pages long about all the faults there seems to be in this sensor overflowing all the goodys it can bring.
It is really hard to see on my monitor what you ment but I can see it now. I was looking at a completly different iregularity in the sky.
Now that I know this I will try to find out if this happens in my images and see if it is a property of the sensor.
Without pixel peeping I want to say that your snowscapes look splendid! And I hope you can find enjoyment in using this crazy bricklike little box.
In general I am quiet a friendly guy and use these forums mererly for positive exchange of images and apparatus.
Also I have better things to do like you.
You don't have to answer this (don't feel obliged
but I am curious if the SPP advise Contas gave you did better your dog image?

I am thinking that the advice to over-expose 1/2 stop when possible might heal it. It looks as if this camera might be quite sensitive to under-exposure.

· Sigma DP2 Merrill: Have any of you tried it?
I have never have so much problems with overexposure but that is mainly due to the fact that my exposure settings are already fixed to -2 or so in SPP. The bigger problem for me are the color and/or WB settings. I mean to get that right. It takes a lot of concentration and good looking to get that ackward WB point at the right place in the circle in SPP. I prefer to get it right there as good as possible, although in ACR/Lightroom you can correct more with the temperature and colour sliders.

29 injured at EDM show in Toronto
Nearly 30 concertgoers were sent to hospital Saturday night during a Toronto concert by the EDM artist AVICII.
Approximately 10 people were transported to hospital by Toronto EMS before the headliner's slated 11 p.m. set time at the Rogers Centre, CP24 reports.
Toronto EMS Commander Peter Rotolo told media concertgoers called 911 after "overdosing" on alcohol, causing EMS professionals on site to become "overwhelmed" by the number of people sick at the sold out gig.
In total, CTV News reports 29 were sent to hospital. "Unfortunately we have a few kids…excessive alcohol and partying and they can't handle it," Rotolo said. "There's a lot of people here and a few don't spoil it for the rest."
Police have made one arrest.
For his part AVICII (real name Tim Bergling) seemed oblivious to the health issues, tweeting his enthusiasm for the show.
Torontooooo! Every show ive had here in Canada has been amazing and tonight rly meant alot to me! Thank you for all your love and support!!—
