Polio back on radar screen as worldwide health threat
LONDON -- For the first time ever, the World Health Organization on Monday declared the spread of polio an international public health emergency that could grow in the next few months and unravel the nearly three-decade effort to eradicate the crippling disease.
The agency described current polio outbreaks across at least 10 countries in Asia, Africa and the Middle East as an "extraordinary event" that required a coordinated international response. It identified Pakistan, Syria and Cameroon as having allowed the virus to spread beyond their borders, and recommended those governments require citizens to obtain a certificate proving they have been vaccinated for polio before traveling abroad.

Ranked Stat Filter Suggestion
Hello Riot,
I was recently looking at my ranked stats, and realized that there is no filter for ranked team SR, solo queue SR, and ranked team TT. I was wondering if it would be possible to provide a method to separate these queues in ranked statistics.
I think it would be very useful (especially separating the two different maps) in tracking the difference in performance for a champion on the two different maps.
Thanks for listening,
- Skippy the Third
I agree, I feel that this would be very helpful to people who are looking to improve their gameplay within the 3 different queues specifically to see where they perform best and where they can improve.
Bump for righteous justice... wait this isn't 4chan :(
Bump. Good idea.
Shameless self bump.

As former Peace Corps teachers in Herat during the late '60s, Afghanistan's golden years, my wife and I always read anything about that country with great interest. Robert D. Kaplan's "Man Versus Afghanistan" (April Atlantic) lays bare the eternal dilemma of maintaining peace with war. In a fragmented society where each valley has its own government, killing off the weeds of violent religious extremism while giving the seedlings of moderation a chance to grow is a tremendously complicated task for our military. As much as war is a horror, this is the right place to make a stand. The trick will be to get the Afghan tribes to own the fight for regional stability. If the struggle against extremism is seen as a foreign affair, it will fail. The Afghans by nature are not an extremist lot and, I believe, will respond if they see their lives improving.
Robert Klaput
Ford City, Pa.
Robert D. Kaplan states as a matter of fact that liberal internationalists opposed intervention in Iraq "correctly, as it turned out." American, British, and European soldiers lost their lives in the cause of that intervention, which overthrew a dictator, undid a brutal police state, and introduced an experiment in freedom and democracy in the heart of Arab Islam. That experiment may well bear fruit for the Middle East and the world for generations to come. Kaplan is entitled to his opinion, of course, but some modesty and respect in stating it about the Iraq War would be fitting.
Roger T. Baker
New Orleans, La.
Robert D. Kaplan replies:
I desperately hope Roger Baker is proved right about Iraq. I supported the war early on—as I alluded to in the piece—and have suffered remorse as a result. If Iraqi democracy proves durable, and Iran, too, evolves politically, partly as a consequence, Baker's letter may hold up.
I'm glad to see Michael Kinsley ("My Inflation Nightmare," April Atlantic) raising the issue of the unavoidable connection between budget deficits and inflation. Another connection is also rarely dealt with by economists or the press: the connection between budget deficits, inflation, and massive military spending. It cannot be just coincidence that hyperinflationary pressures so regularly follow, about a decade later, periods of massive military spending, whether the wars be hot or cold. This pattern is seen across nations and across centuries.
Daniel Liechty
Normal, Ill.
Jonathan Rauch's article about caring for an elderly parent ("Letting Go of My Father," April Atlantic) was both important and painfully familiar. My husband (an only child) has faced some of the same challenges, while caring for his late father and now for his 85-year-old mother, who must leave her assisted-living facility because we can no longer afford it. Although Mr. Rauch faced a heart-wrenching situation, it sounds like he also had some significant advantages that our family and many others do not: a parent who had a well-paying profession, and thus the wherewithal to pay for support services; a spare bedroom; siblings to help with decisions and perhaps share costs; and no children to raise, educate, and care for. With the demand for subsidized elderly housing and support services far outstripping the supply, we find ourselves consumed by worry, financial pressures, and the knowledge that no matter what we choose to do, the outcome will not be a good one for any of us.
Toby Gooley
Newton, Mass.
Jonathan Rauch gave me a completely different perspective on the years I managed my father's care. There is not one episode, experience, or feeling that Rauch described that I did not encounter. The feelings of inadequacy, despair, and resentment drove me to an almost-breakdown. It was not until a friend saw my suffering and said "You can handle this" that I found the courage and willpower to forge ahead. I took away my father's driver's license, put him in assisted living, and found a loving caregiver. He was angry with me to the end because his dementia would not let him understand. Since he passed, three years ago, I always felt I had not done a perfect enough job—otherwise he would have been grateful. After reading this article, I now feel I am a survivor of an almost impossible situation and that I in fact did a very good job, given what I had to work with.

Cobbled streets, balconies with blooming bougainvillea, and pastel plazas make Cartagena one of Latin America's most photogenic cities. But it's not just another pretty seaport. Founded in 1533, this Spanish-Colonial city is steeped in history.The former hub of the Spanish empire â a major shipping port for New World riches, and a slave market and Inquisition center â is surrounded by massive stone walls, within which sit hundreds of gorgeous colonial homes, churches, plazas and parks.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology, Shibpur (Hindi: भारतीय अभियांत्रिकी विज्ञान एवं प्रौद्योगिकी संस्थान, शिवपुर), commonly abbreviated as IIEST Shibpur, is a public institution for research and education in engineering, science and technology, located at Shibpur, in Howrah district, in the state of West Bengal in India. It is classified as an Institute of National Importance by the Government of India since 2014.[1]
Established in 1856, it is the country's second-oldest institution for engineering education and has a long and chequered history. It was formerly an institution under the state government of West Bengal and known as Bengal Engineering and Science University, Shibpur from 2004 to 2014 and Bengal Engineering College, Shibpur prior to that.
In March 2014, recognizing the institute's contribution to engineering for more than a century and its potential for further excellence, it was elevated to national status by amending the National Institutes of Technology and Science Education and Research (NITSER) Act, 2007, thus renaming it to IIEST Shibpur and granting it the status of Institutes of National Importance at par with the Indian Institutes of Technology and Indian Institute of Science.
The institute offers Bachelor's, Master's and Doctorate degrees in Engineering and Architecture as well as Master's and Doctorate degrees in Science and Management in addition to various part-time courses.

The institute is located on the western bank of the Hoogli River in Howrah, opposite the city of Kolkata, which is connected by transportation to all the major Indian cities by rail transport and air routes and also by the Golden Quadrangle Road Network. Vidyasagar Setu on the Hooghly river has made it possible to go to the heart of Kolkata from the institute in a few minutes. The nearest railway station is Shalimar Station, which is two kilometres from the campus. It is five kilometres from the Howrah Station. Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport is the main airport which is 30 kilometres from the main gate of the campus. India's largest botanical garden Acharya Jagadish Chandra Bose Indian Botanic Garden is located beside the institute campus.
British Era[edit]
Bengal Engineering and Science University owes its origin to the erstwhile Bengal Engineering College. Prompted by the idea of meeting the requirement for trained engineering personnel for the Public Works Department, the Council of Education, Bengal, decided to open Civil Engineering classes and a Professorship in Civil Engineering. A college was established on 24 November 1856 named Calcutta Civil Engineering College, training personnel for the Public Works Department, and located at the Writers' Building, Howrah. With the establishment of Calcutta University on 24 January 1857, the college was affiliated to this university in May 1857. The first degree examination in Bachelors of Civil Engineering was held in 1864 when two students graduated. In 1865, the college merged with Presidency College, Kolkata and from 1865 to 1869 the college functioned as the Civil Engineering Department of Presidency College. In 1880, the college was shifted to its present campus at Shibpur, Howrah, and was christened the Government College, Howrah, in the premises of Bishop's College.[2] The college became wholly residential from the year 1889. In 1906 Mining Engineering as a discipline was first started in India in this college to meet the requirements of statutory provision in Indian mines. After independence, Dr. B. C. Roy, the then Chief Minister of West Bengal, revamping the department to satisfy the demand of for mining professionals, and the Department of Mining & Geology was reborn in 1956. On 12 February 1920 the name was changed to Bengal Engineering College, Shibpur. The word Shibpur was deleted on 24 March 1921 and it became Bengal Engineering College.[3] The Department of Electrical Engineering came into existence as a separate department from 1912. The B.E. degree course was introduced during 1935–36 with the first batch obtaining the degree from Calcutta University in 1936.The inception of the Mechanical Engineering Department may be traced back to 1921 when a diploma course in Mechanical Engineering was started in this Institute. The first degree course in Mechanical Engineering started in July 1930. The Department of Metallurgy started its journey at the Bengal Engineering College in the year 1939 with the introduction of a three-year degree course in Metallurgy under the Calcutta University. The department is the second oldest metallurgy department of the country.
Post independence period[edit]
After the independence of India in 1947, the Department of Architecture, Town and Regional Planning was started on the recommendation of a committee appointed by Government of West Bengal. Two new courses were started at the same time – one with a five-year degree programme in Architecture another with a two-year part-time diploma programme in Town & Regional Planning. The Department of Architecture, Town and Regional Planning (established in 1949) that offered the First Degree in Architecture and the First Diploma in Town Planning in INDIA. This department has produced more than 800 graduates in Architecture and more than 300 postgraduates in Town Planning in the last fifty years. Its students also founded the National Association of Students of Architecture, briefly designated as NASA India, a non-political, non-profit Student Body Association, one of its kind for the Undergraduate Students of Architecture in India in 13 September 1957, with six other colleges. With the end of the Second World War, a 'Committee for the Development of Higher Engineering and Technical Education in Bengal' under the Chairmanship of the Director of Public Instruction recommended two plans – one 'Immediate' and the other 'Five Year Plan' for the college. Under the 'Immediate' plan the committee made recommendations regarding the increase of student strength from 300 to 520, an improved curriculum, better teaching staff, a greater range of degree courses and a close liaison with industry. The objective of the 'Five Year Plan' was to upgrade the college to the status of a modern institution with facilities for postgraduate study and research. A new building was constructed in 1949 and all academic departments were moved to the new building. In 1954, postgraduate courses in Civil, Mechanical, Electrical, and Metallurgical were introduced. A postgraduate certificate course in Naval Architecture was introduced during this period. Doctoral programs were introduced at this time and approved by Calcutta University to enhance research activities in the college. In 1954 an agreement was concluded by the college and the University of Wisconsin, USA, whereby six guest professors from the USA joined the college and in exchange, five teachers from the college went to the USA as Research Associate. This scheme, known as Technical Co-operation Programme of the USA, helped the college in developing laboratories, postgraduate programmes and research facilities. The college celebrated its gala centenary function inaugurated by Dr. B.C. Roy on 25 December 1956, and the concluding session was attended by Pandit Jawarlal Nehru on 14 January 1957. The Department of Electronics & Telecommunication Engineering started functioning as a separate discipline of engineering in July 1968. The college started its first Computer Centre in 1976–77 and a Microprocessor Laboratory in 1979. The 125th Anniversary of the college was celebrated in 11 December 1981, with inauguration by Sri N. Sanjiva Reddy, the then President of India. The Department of Computer Science and Technology was established in 1982. It offers undergraduate and postgraduate engineering courses. The department started offering the Master of Engineering courses in 1988 and Master of Computer Applications courses in 1991. The college was selected as a participating institute under the World Bank EIDP Project and an endowment for Rs. 200,000,000 was received for upgrading the teaching facilities and laboratories in the Electronics and Computer Science Departments. In recognition of its service to the nation, the college was elevated to the status of a Deemed University in 1992, breaking its ties with the Calcutta University by the Ministry of Human Resource Development, Government of India on the recommendation of a UGC Expert Committee.[2] Formal inauguration was done on 13 March 1993, by the then President of India, Shankar Dayal Sharma. [3] School of Management Sciences (SMOS) and School of Information Technology were established in 1998 and 2000 respectively. The Department of Information Technology started its journey in 2000. It is the second youngest of the ten engineering departments in BESU. The School of Material Science and Technology (2001), School of Community Science and Technology (2002) were introduced. On 1 October 2004 the institution was elevated to a full-fledged university with the present name.[3] It was formally inaugurated by A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, the President of India, on 13 July 2005.[citation needed] In 2010 Department of Aerospace Engineering started along with the Applied Mechanics department.
In March 2014, it was upgraded to the status of Institutes of National Importance under the banner of Indian Institutes of Engineering Science and Technology, thus renaming it IIEST Shibpur.
In June 2014, IIEST Shibpur was selected as the Mentor Institute for IIIT Kalyani, the eleventh addition to the prestigious Indian Institute of Information Technology(IIIT) family of engineering institutes.[4][5] It was inaugurated by the President of India on 24 August 2014.

CSL (CSL)PUBLISHED: 02 May 2012 00:03:45 | UPDATED: 02 May 2012 11:33:17PUBLISHED: 02 May 2012 PRINT EDITION: 02 May 2012
Bianca Hartge-Hazelman
Deutsche Bank has cut its rating on CSL to "hold" from "buy", saying the potential near-term positives are reflected in the share price following its recent outperformance. A delay in Baxter's rival product, supply constraints and Octapharma's relatively slow recovery put CSL in a good position to win market share, and the broker has lifted its price target by 6.7 per cent to $38.40 a share. Deutsche also acknowledged that CSL's ongoing share buyback is likely to limit the near-term downside for the stock. However, CSL is trading close to the broker's revised price target, which reflects a 30 per cent premium to the All-Industrials (excluding financials) Index.

Gold vermeil circle drop earrings with amethyst and turquoise drops
Material: 14K yellow gold vermeil, turquoise, and amethyst
Brand: Wendy Mink
Origin: United States
Based in NYC, Wendy Mink designs jewelry influenced by her love of history and her far-flung travels — think Victorian drama fused with Indian flair, by way of Tibet. Uptown, downtown; high, low; East, West: Mink's collection of meandering, organic shapes, drenched in gold vermeil and semi-precious stones, represents the perfect culture clash. A team of Tibetan artisans uses ancient techniques such as hammering, molding, and wire-wrapping to handcraft all of Mink's turquoise rings, lapis lazuli and blue calcite drop earrings, labradorite necklaces and other designs. Synthetic resin adds plenty of chic, sharp shocks of color to Wendy Mink's gold and silver wares.

We arrived into the port settlement of Abraao and it reminded us a bit of the waterfront of Avalon in Catalina although much more lush and green. Waterfront restaurants and hostels were aplenty once you stepped off the pier along with many tasty dessert carts. We found a�ai topped with granola, banana and honey so we were delighted! We also had our first sushi dinners of the trip and that was a little taste of heaven for us. We haven�t seen many sushi restaurants on our travels in general, but we also hesitate to eat raw fish in many places for health reasons. This sushi bar was really cheap so we had to visit it twice.
Since there are no roads for driving on the island, the only way to get to the other beaches are to take a boat or to hike among the many trails through the rain forest. This would be a great place to take camping gear or just a small pack and hike from one beach area to another, staying in different places along the way. We did a great 2-hour hike to a beach called Lopes Mendes which some claim to be the most beautiful beach in Brazil and we have to say it is the most beautiful beach the two of us have ever seen. It felt like we were walking onto a screensaver (you know those tropical beach shots that come with your computer?).
Thanksgiving day arrived and it was a very strange experience for us to be in a place where no one celebrated or even recognized this American holiday! We did not hear or see any other Americans during our time there, though there may have been some in the island, so we felt like we were truly on our own in our celebration of the day. We talked about the things and people in our lives that we are thankful for and talked about our families' Thanksgiving traditions and what we would typically be doing that day were we at home. We definitely missed our families and the delicious food but are so grateful to be with one another on this amazing adventure.
We spent Thanksgiving day on a boat trip that allowed us to see a few other beaches of the island including the Blue Lagoon where we snorkeled.
It was an incredible few days of enjoying some of God's most gorgeous creations.

6pm Thursday 25th October – Saturday 3rd November 2012
Note: Nothing will be sold from the exhibition before it opens at 6pm on the 25th October.
Sir David Goodall GCMG was British High Commissioner to India from 1987 to 1991. His earlier postings in the Diplomatic Service, which he joined in 1956, included Indonesia, Kenya, Austriaand Germanyas well as a spell in the Cabinet Office, when he helped to negotiate the Anglo-Irish Agreement of 1985. Following his retirement, he was for some years Chairman of the Leonard Cheshire Foundation (now Leonard Cheshire Disability), which operates a network of services for disabled people in 50 different countries worldwide, including 24 Homes across India. His interest in painting began at school at Ampleforth, with lessons from Fr Raphael Williams, a talented watercolourist in the Wilson Steer tradition; but he only started painting seriously twenty years later, after reading Sir Winston Churchill's Painting as a Pastime.
While in India, he visited almost every state of the Indian Union, always carrying his watercolours with him, as he has continued to do on his travels post-retirement.

Dec. 12 (Bloomberg) -- The euro is poised to fell to an 18- month low of $1.1875 after failing to follow through on a rally last week, Societe Generale SA said, citing trading patterns.
After the "bounce" on Dec. 9 proved short-lived, the 17- nation currency is now heading down toward so-called support at its Oct. 4 low of $1.3145, technical analysts Hugues Naka and Fabien Manac'h wrote today in a note to clients. If the currency drops below that level, the next target would be $1.2860, close to the weakest this year, they said.
"The likely break below $1.3145 should open the door to an extension of the medium-term downtrend" toward the June 2010 low of $1.1875, the Paris-based analysts wrote.
The euro weakened 1 percent to $1.3248 at 2:21 p.m. London time, after rising 0.3 percent on Dec. 9. The currency has fallen 7.7 percent in the past six months.
Support refers to an area on a chart where technical analysts anticipate orders to buy a currency and its related instruments. The stronger the support, the more selling is needed for a drop below that level.
In technical analysis, investors and analysts study charts of trading patterns to forecast changes in a security, commodity, currency or index.

Good Luck!
Answer #2Visitor, January 19, 2011, 11:35
I have a KIA that did the same thing it was the power steering pump ...
Answer #3Visitor, April 30, 2011, 16:00
its not a belt, its probably your pulley. My pulley just broke, and it did the same thing. I had to buy a new crankshaft timing gear to fix it. i also replaced the timing belt while I was at it.
Answer #4michelle58 October 15, 2012, 21:28Rookie
I had this happen to me just a month ago...it is the harmonic balancer, which runs all belts and pulleys...it needed to be completely replaced, the bolt sheared of holding it, and this is a problem that all KIA Sorrento;s have had. Yet KIA refused to recall, this can cause serious injury or accident while driving and it happens...lose all control of wheel...

I have an assignment due in today to plan an experiment to find the heat capacity of a Duralumin block using an OP-Amp and a Thermocouple and write a full report on the results. Problem is, I haven't showed up for any of the practical sessions, so I have to do the full report alone (the rest are doing it in groups of four), with no assistance from any peer or lecturer, no way of collaborating with the rest of the class like everyone else, and no results or information to work from other than "this is a block of aluminium. Find its heat capacity". And yet, I'd still rather do this than work with the tards in my class.

text: If anyone still wants to play minecraft I have a few servers around the world. I have got one spare in the NYC at the moment that I was thinking of using for edugeekers. Im just trying to see how many people are still actively interested in playing. I have put a poll up the top. If you are interested in a me setting up an unofficial edugeek server then click your favorite game type. Obviously I will not do this if it is not allowed by edugeek but the server would just be a place to play and nothing officially affiliated with the site. People also previously said the old server got boring so I have added a few choices.

NEW YORK (The Deal) -- American Express (AXP) said late Monday it has a deal in place to sell a 50% stake in its business travel operation to a consortium of investors led by Certares International Bank in a deal valued at $900 million.
Joining Certares in buying into Amex's Global Business Travel unit are Qatar Investment Authority through its wholly owned subsidiary Qatar Holding as well as funds managed by BlackRock (BLK) and Macquarie Capital. Post-deal, the unit would continue offering travel services in coordination with American Express' other business units, including its global payments operations and the American Express corporate card.
New York-based Amex last September disclosed it was in talks with Certares about a potential deal after years of trying to revamp the business. The travel agency sector has been under pressure from cheaper, online methods for booking corporate travel, leading Amex in January 2013 to slash 5,400 jobs and to say it was working to develop tools that would allow it to better compete with online travel agencies.
The company in January named Bill Glenn, former president of global commercial services at American Express, to be CEO of its Global Business Travelunit. Post-deal, Glenn will remain in place, with Certares founder Greg O'Hara serving as chairman of the joint venture.American Express chairman and CEO Kenneth I. Chenault in a statement said the joint venture "reflects our continued commitment to the travel business through a new structure with an outstanding group of investors and the resources to grow the business and provide additional value to our corporate customers." The companies said they believe the business unit can compete by continuing to expand and improve its reporting tools and itinerary management applications, as well as building its meetings and events management services offerings. The business unit employs 14,000 from operations in 139 countries.

More than seven months after an order from the state
Transportation Department closed down the helicopter pads at two
California hospitals, officials are still scrambling to come with
alternative sites for medevac helos to touch down on.
Inspectors for Caltrans' aeronautics division closed the landing
pads at San Luis Obispos' French Hospital Medical Center, and Twin
Cities Community Hospital in Templeton, last November... after
finding they failed to meet state-mandated safety criteria for
object clearance distances.
That order meant critically ill or injured patients had to be
driven to the hospitals, instead of being flown to them... adding
precious minutes that could mean the difference between life and
Fortunately, no patient has died or suffered additional injury
because of the loss of the landing sites, said county Emergency
Services Director Tom Lynch to the San Luis Obispo Tribune. But, he
added, "In those cases where it's absolutely essential, clearly it
makes a difference."
Architects at the Twin
Cities Hospital have begun to completely revamp the hospital's
landing pad, to provide adequate clearances; meanwhile,
administrators at French say they are finalizing plans to have a
backup landing site designated as an "Emergency Medical Service"
landing site, similar to what you'd find in remote areas where
medical flights are infrequent.
The designation would allow at least some medevac choppers to
land at the pad, without having to adhere as strictly to the
clearance guidelines.
"The EMS site is designed to provide services for hospitals that
normally do not use these facilities that require regular, repeated
use," Caltrans aviation consultant Dan Gargas said. "It was never
intended for someone who's getting flights in weekly or

hospitals saw -- on average -- about 15 medevac flights per

Building a Weather Resistant Dropcam/
For years my grandmother has been suffering from progressing Alzheimer's, in May my aunt who has lived with her for over two decades passed away. To keep my grandmother comfortable in her own home as long as possible a number of family members and friends stop by at various times throughout the day, however there are periods where she is is alone. As a piece of mind we recently started using Dropcams in a few of the rooms in my grandmother's house house to monitor her well being when we can't be there. The Dropcams have worked great requiring no port forwarding or complicated access methods. The only problem is that my grandmother likes to sit out on her deck during the day and we wanted to be able to keep an eye on her while out there. Unfortunately Dropcam, at this time, does not make a weather resistant version and we didn't want to use a different type of camera for outdoors as we want to keep everything in one interface.
I started considering ways to make a Dropcam work outdoors while protecting it from the elements and came up with this solution, which in total cost me less than $4 to make:
Materials and Tools Needed:
- 4" length of 2" diameter PVC pipe
- 2" PVC coupler
- 2" PVC cap
- PVC Glue (Optional)
- Caulk
- 2 or 3 desiccant packs
- 1/2" Drill Bit
The Dropcam will sit halfway into the coupler as seen below. The overhang is what will protect the front of the camera and in my setup it is just short enough to not be in the camera's field of vision.
Making sure the camera is snug against the lip in the middle of the coupler place a mark on the coupler where the micro USB port is and drill out the opening with your 1/2" bit.
Place the PVC cap on one end of your pipe, the fit will be fairly tight with out glue but if you want the extra piece of mind like me your can glue the cap on.
Next insert the dropcam into the coupler, it should stop half way through and line up the USB port with the hole you drilled.
Place the desiccant packs into the pipe, this will absorb any moisture that gets inside, and insert the pipe into the coupler behind the camera. Make sure the two are tight against each other and the fit around the edges is snug. DO NOT GLUE, if you ever want to get your camera back out with out damaging it DO NOT apply PVC glue. If done right the fit here should be tight enough that rain water will not be able to penetrate inside the housing you have built.
Finally, plug the USB cable in and apply a bead of caulk around to seal it from any moisture.
If you decide to paint the camera housing I strongly recommend you do it in a light color as the Dropcams have a rated maximum operating temp of 95F.
As you can see by the test shot of my kitchen the PVC coupler does not interfere with image at all
UPDATE: In my camera's almost 7 months of constant outdoor operation it has been through temperature ranging from 3F (-15F wind chill) to 95F and humidity of 80%+
UPDATE 2: A few people have confirmed to me that the instructions above work just fine with the Dropcam Pro

Liz Bauer of Adele Harrison Middle School, center, accepts a $2,203 donation from Sonoma Market, represented by Al Marino and Erin Downing. The funds, proceeds from the store's See's candy drive, will allow students take an upcoming trip — an outdoor education trip to Occidental, in May — who otherwise could not afford to attend.

Protease Deficient <i>Bacillus anthracis</i> with Improved Recombinant Protein Yield Capabilities
Species of Bacillus, such as Bacillus anthracis, Bacillus cereus, and Bacillus subtilis, are attractive microorganisms for recombinant protein production in view of their fast growth rate, high yield, and ability to secrete produced products directly into the medium. Bacillus anthracis is also attractive in view of its ability to produce anthrax toxin and ability to fold proteins correctly. This application claims a B. anthracis strain in which more than one secreted protease is inactivated by genetic modification. Such a protease-deficient B. anthracis has an improved ability to produce recombinant secreted proteins compared to other bacteria, particularly other Bacillus. Improvements include production of intact (i.e., mature full-length) proteins, often at high yield.
