Traces of recent water on Mars
April 25, 2014 9:40 am | News | CommentsThe southern hemisphere of Mars is home to a crater that contains very well-preserved gullies and debris flow deposits. According to a recent study by geology experts in Sweden, the geomorphological attributes of these landforms provide evidence that they were formed by the action of liquid water in geologically recent time.
Animal study suggests some astronauts are at risk for cognitive impairment
April 24, 2014 11:57 am | News | CommentsJohns Hopkins Univ. scientists report that rats exposed to high-energy particles, simulating conditions astronauts would face on a long-term deep space mission, show lapses in attention and slower reaction times, even when the radiation exposure is in extremely low dose ranges.
"Upside-down planet" reveals new method for studying binary star systems
April 22, 2014 8:12 am | by Peter Kelley, News and Information, Univ. of Washington | News | CommentsWhat looked at first like an upside-down planet has instead revealed a new method for studying binary star systems, discovered by a Univ. of Washington (UW) student astronomer. Working with UW astronomer Eric Agol, doctoral student Ethan Kruse has confirmed the first "self-lensing" binary star system: one in which the mass of the closer star can be measured by how powerfully it magnifies light from its more distant companion star.
Unlocking a mystery of human disease in space
April 21, 2014 7:45 am | by Jessica Stoller-Conrad, Caltech | News | CommentsHuntington's disease is a grim diagnosis. A hereditary disorder with debilitating physical and cognitive symptoms, the disease usually robs adult patients of their ability to walk, balance and speak. More than 15 years ago, researchers revealed the disorder's likely cause—an abnormal version of the protein huntingtin; however, the mutant protein's mechanism is poorly understood, and the disease remains untreatable.
Easter morning delivery for space station
April 20, 2014 8:20 am | by Marcia Dunn - AP Aerospace Writer - Associated Press | News | CommentsSpace station astronauts got a special Easter treat: a cargo ship full of supplies. The shipment arrived Sunday morning via a Dragon, versus a bunny. The SpaceX company's cargo ship, Dragon, spent two days chasing the International Space Station following its launch from Cape Canaveral. Astronauts used a robot arm to capture the capsule 260 miles above Egypt.
NASA's moon-orbiting robot crashes down as planned
April 18, 2014 10:28 am | by Marcia Dunn - AP Aerospace Writer - Associated Press | News | CommentsNASA's robotic moon explorer, LADEE, is no more. Flight controllers confirmed Friday that the orbiting spacecraft crashed into the back side of the moon as planned, just three days after surviving a full lunar eclipse, something it was never designed to do. Researchers believe LADEE likely vaporized when it hit because of its extreme orbiting speed of 3,600 mph, possibly smacking into a mountain or side of a crater.
Impact glass stores biodata for millions of years
April 18, 2014 10:22 am | by Mark Nickel, Brown Univ. | News | CommentsBits of plant life encapsulated in molten glass by asteroid and comet impacts millions of years ago give geologists information about climate and life forms on the ancient Earth. Scientists exploring large fields of impact glass in Argentina suggest that what happened on Earth might well have happened on Mars millions of years ago. Martian impact glass could hold traces of organic compounds.
Researchers predict signs of black holes swallowing stars
April 18, 2014 8:19 am | by Aaron Dubrow, National Science Foundation | News | CommentsSomewhere out in the cosmos an ordinary galaxy spins, seemingly at slumber. Then all of a sudden, WHAM! A flash of light explodes from the galaxy's center. A star orbiting too close to the event horizon of the galaxy's central supermassive black hole has been torn apart by the force of gravity, heating up its gas and sending out a beacon to the far reaches of the universe.
Astronomers spot most Earth-like planet yet
April 17, 2014 2:56 pm | by Alicia Chang, AP Science Writer | News | CommentsDetected by NASA's orbiting Kepler telescope, a newly found planet is the most Earth-like planet yet detected. Astronomers say the distant, rocky world is similar in size to our own and exists in the Goldilocks zone where it's not too hot and not too cold for life. The find, announced Thursday, excited planet hunters who have been scouring the Milky Way galaxy for years for potentially habitable places outside our solar system.
SpaceX will try again Friday to launch station cargo
April 16, 2014 12:22 pm | by Marcia Dunn - AP Aerospace Writer - Associated Press | News | CommentsSpaceX is shooting for another launch attempt Friday to deliver supplies to the International Space Station. NASA confirmed the launch date Wednesday, two days after a last-minute rocket leak delayed the mission. Stormy weather, however, is forecast for Friday. Saturday is the backup launch date.
Astronomers: 'Tilt-a-worlds' could harbor life
April 15, 2014 3:17 pm | by Peter Kelley, Univ. of Washington | News | CommentsA fluctuating tilt in a planet's orbit does not preclude the possibility of life, according to new research by a team of astronomers. In fact, sometimes it helps because such "tilt-a-worlds," as astronomers sometimes call them, are less likely than fixed-spin planets to freeze over, as heat from their host star is more evenly distributed.
Rocket leak delays space station delivery launch
April 14, 2014 4:21 pm | by Marcia Dunn - AP Aerospace Writer - Associated Press | News | CommentsA space station cargo ship will remain Earthbound for a while longer. With just over an hour remaining, the Space X company called off Monday's planned launch because of a rocket leak. A new launch date was not set; the next opportunity would be Friday. Officials said a helium leak in the first-stage of the unmanned Falcon rocket forced the postponement. The launch already had been delayed a full month for various reasons.
NASA OKs space station visit despite dead computer
April 13, 2014 3:20 pm | by Marcia Dunn - AP Aerospace Writer - Associated Press | News | CommentsNASA is pressing ahead with Monday's planned launch of a supply ship despite a critical computer outage at the International Space Station, promising the situation is safe. Mission managers decided Sunday to proceed with the countdown for the SpaceX capsule, Dragon, already a month late in delivering more than 2 tons of cargo.
Study to measure gravity's effects on plant cells in space
April 11, 2014 7:53 am | by Natalie van Hoose, Purdue Univ. | News | CommentsA Purdue Univ. experiment that will test how plant cells sense and respond to different levels of gravity is scheduled to launch aboard the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral, Fla., on Monday (April 14). Understanding how gravity impacts plants is key for determining the conditions necessary to grow plants in space.
Researchers make most precise measurement yet of the expanding universe
April 10, 2014 1:15 pm | by Barbara Kennedy, Penn State | News | CommentsAstronomers at Penn State and other institutions participating in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey have used 140,000 distant quasars to measure the expansion rate of the universe when it was only one-quarter of its present age. This measurement is the best yet of the expansion rate at any epoch in the last 13 billion years during the history of the universe.
Gravity measurements confirm subsurface ocean on Enceladus
April 7, 2014 9:18 am | by Kimm Fesenmaier, Caltech | News | CommentsIn 2005, NASA's Cassini spacecraft sent pictures back to Earth depicting an icy Saturnian moon spewing water vapor and ice from fractures, known as "tiger stripes," in its frozen surface. It was big news that tiny Enceladus was such an active place. Since then, scientists have hypothesized that a large reservoir of water lies beneath that icy surface, possibly fueling the plumes.
How Earth got its plated shell
April 7, 2014 9:03 am | by Eric Gershon, Yale Univ. | News | CommentsNew Yale Univ.-led research suggests how and when Earth came to develop one of its most distinct features—rigid tectonic plates—and why Venus, Earth's twin-like neighbor, never has. Earth has a unique network of shifting plates embedded in its cold and rocky outermost layer, the lithosphere. The motion of these plates drives many Earth processes, while also stabilizing the planet's climate and enabling life.
Fermi data tantalize with new clues to dark matter
April 4, 2014 9:05 am | by Fermi | News | CommentsA new study of gamma-ray light from the center of our galaxy makes the strongest case to date that some of this emission may arise from dark matter, an unknown substance making up most of the material universe.
ESA launching satellite for new monitoring system
April 3, 2014 1:14 pm | News | CommentsThe European Space Agency is launching the first of six satellites for a new system designed to better monitor climate change, environmental disasters and catastrophes like floods, volcanic eruptions and earthquakes.
Astronomers challenge current cosmological model
April 3, 2014 9:30 am | by Liverpool John Moores University | News | CommentsAstronomers are challenging the view that the currently preferred cosmological model of the Universe is correct. They are comparing recent measurements of the cosmic background radiation and galaxy clusters in two independent studies.
NASA cuts Russian ties, except on ISS
April 3, 2014 8:36 am | by Associated Press, Alicia Chang | News | CommentsAfter insisting that space relations wouldn't be altered by earthly politics, NASA announced it was severing ties with Russia except for the International Space Station. NASA employees can't travel to Russia or host visitors until further notice. They're also barred from emailing or holding teleconferences with their Russian counterparts because of Russia's actions in Ukraine, according to a memo sent to workers.
The ringed asteroid
March 28, 2014 11:51 am | News | CommentsBenefited from a rare occultation on June 3, 2013, researchers observed the asteroid Chariklo when it passed by a star that concealed it for several seconds. Although the astronomer planned only to measure its size, they were surprised to discover this "centaur", which has an unstable orbit that passes through the outer planets, has two thin rings made of ice. It is only the fifth Solar System object to exhibit such a system.
2018 mission: Mars rover prototype unveiled in U.K.
March 28, 2014 8:34 am | by Gregory Katz, Associated Press | News | CommentsThe European Mars rover unveiled Thursday at a "Mars Yard" testing ground in Britain is designed to drill beneath the surface of the Red Planet searching for signs of life. It's been dubbed "Bryan" by its creators, and the plan is to send it to Mars in 2018 as part of the European Space Agency's ExoMars program, an ambitious plan that begins in 2016 with the launch of a Mars orbiter and demonstrator landing module.
Newfound pink world lurks at solar system fringes
March 27, 2014 9:30 am | by Alicia Chang, AP Science Writer | News | CommentsUntil now, the lone known resident in the region of the solar system beyond Pluto was an oddball dwarf planet spotted in 2003 named Sedna. For years, astronomers hunted in vain for other Sednas in the little-studied fringes of the solar system. Now, they've found one: a pink frozen world 7.5 billion miles from the sun. And astronomer think they will find others.
NIST gives astronomers better ruler in search for extrasolar planets
March 26, 2014 2:14 pm | News | CommentsAs a planet orbits, its gravity makes its parent star wobble a tiny bit, resulting in slight color changes in the star's light due to the Doppler effect. A high-quality reference spectrum allows scientists to make a comparison to find planets. Now, NIST has made extensive new measurements of thorium, a heavy element often used in emission lamps that help provide that fixed ruler. The work has more than doubled the number of spectral lines.

Practically Perfect Weekend.
Ever have one of those perfect weekends? This weekend was a close to perfect as I can ask for.
I am off on Fridays, so Friday is the first day of my weekend, but then I have to work on Saturday so my weekends are sort of split up. Not this weekend, but we will get to that.
Friday morning, another master gardener and I went to the Middle School, which is aptly Middle Monkey's school. We met with the Environmental Club's leader and the principle. The meeting was to discuss putting in another rainwater harvesting set up. The leader and the principle were enthusiastic. Looks like another 500 gallon tank has a home.
After that meeting, I went to work at the CSA farm, Eden's Garden, in Balch Springs, Tx. I am a member on a working share. Nothing much is being harvested right now and mucho mulch has to be spread. The farmer, Marie, is a very interesting person. We are in the getting to know you phase and are sharing our stories. She actually asked me, "So, what's your story?" I like that kind of directness. I wouldn't have twenty years ago, mostly because I wouldn't have had a story, but at this age, I've got stories. We both come from large families; her's Italian American, mine mostly German American (but mixed). One of the other working share members showed up with hilarious stories about why the Rooster, Snowball, is a jackass. Apparently, Snowball likes to wander off and get himself in trouble. Very enjoyable few hours or hard work and lively conversation.
Lunch time arrived, and I had to skidaddle as I had a hot date with Manly Man. We took the motorcycle, I now have named Silver, to Dallas and ate lunch at Jimmy's Deli. Jimmy's has the most awesome sandwiches to be had in Dallas. I won't say it is as good as po boy's in New Orleans, or the monster sandwiches at Carnegie's Deli in New York, but still, the best sandwiches to be had around here. It is also a full on deli with lovely foodie treasures on every isle. We were on the motorcycle and could not buy anything, which is probably for the best.
Following lunch, we took a ride through down town Dallas. If you have never ridden through a large city on the back of a bike, I strongly suggest you do it at least once in your life. I was able to really look around at a city I have been familiar with for most of my life. I love old buildings and there were plenty to oogle. I asked Manly to take me to the old court house. If you look at the pictures, you may recognize the location of a national tragedy. Yes, we went down to Dealy Plaza. I have never actually gotten out and looked a Dealy Plaza. I have driven through it countless times, I should have gotten out earlier.
The old courthouse, now a museum, is a beautiful building. I love old courthouses and will be boring you with many more of them. I am actually seeking them out now, instead of just being happily surprised when I accidentally come upon one.
If you look close in the second picture of the courthouse, you can see Manly with the bike. The next picture is of a Segway tour of Dealy Plaza. The tour puttered past us and then looped around about the time we were ready to saddle up and ride off. Then there was the Segway vs. Silver coolness smack down. The first Segway rider declared that her ride was cooler than ours. A few guys back commented on the relative coolness of Manly's helmet vs. his. It was a bicycle bike helmet for Pete's sake. The final man on the tour pointed at Silver and then at his Segway ride, and commented "It just isn't the same." Before it was over, I was laughing so hard I couldn't get on the back of the bike.
Friday evening we celebrated Teenage Monkey's birthday. Mamala made sweet and sour pork. She learned this recipe from a maid who worked for her family while they were stationed in Formosa. This is the real deal people and about the best stuff ever. She did pull the "You need to come over here and learn how to make this before I die or you will be sorry" guilt trip. So I guess I am going to learn how to make authentic sweet and sour pork, poor me;)
I took Saturday off so Middle Monkey and I could participated in the Trinity River Trash Bash. 70 or so middle school and high school kids and a handful of adults split up into teams and picked up trash along the stretch of highway that leads up to our branch of the Trinity River. There were prizes for weirdest thing picked up, overall quantity picked up, and highest quantity of recyclables picked up. We allowed our team to rob the bottles and stuff out of the baseball diamonds trash cans, giving us an unfair advantage. Hey, we kept them out of a landfill.
The weekend would have been totally perfect if it wasn't for giant mosquitoes. I can't get out in the garden because of the awful beasts. All this rain has set up the perfect habitat for them.
Hope you had a great weekend too minus the mosquitoes.

I have been working at Party City part-time (more than 3 years)
Sometimes you had customers that could make you laugh. Your team tried their best to help out. Finally, it helped out when I started college.
Tough customers were common. Training lasted for at least a week even during busy times. Had many rude customers. Did not always get a good manager or helpful team leader due to the fact that they switched around a lot.
Be more willing to get on a cash register when it's busy. Try to get your employees out on time; it's not their fault you had a call or text when you could pull cash drawers for the next cashier to come in. Finally; keep up the good work in defending you employees against rude customers. The customer is NOT always right.

It's bright and colorful and low maintenance. Lays flat. Best part is water drains right through it so it can be placed on our outdoor rooftop terrace with out worry that it will retain water or develop mildew.

I'm not disappointed. I just expected it to look richer in color. This has "air space" between the weave so you can see some slight white from the back of the rug. Didn't dislike it enough to send back. We'll see how it stands up to a Minnesota winter.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Not accurate from my monitor. The orange is slightly more toward peach.
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Time will tell.
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Acceptable

- Conference date: 21–26 October 2007
- Location: Campinas, São Paulo (Brazil)
Development of native Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) biosensors is of great importance in clinical analysis because the LDL concentration, which is the main carrier of cholesterol, in the plasma, is a fundamental parameter for the prevention and diagnosis of a number of clinical disorders such as heart disease, hypertension and atherosclerosis. The optical properties of the Europium‐Tetracycline Complex (EuTc) were investigated for the solutions containing LDL in their compositions. In this paper we show an enhancement in the europium luminescence of EuTc complex in the presence of LDL. The time‐resolved fluorescence spectroscopy experimental results of the pure EuTc sample and samples with LDL (EuTc:LDL) reveal an increase in the europium emission lifetime in the lipoprotein‐doped samples with respect to the pure EuTc sample. A calibration curve, reasonably well described by a linear function between 0 and 3 mg/mL of LDL, was obtained. The obtained limit of detection was 0.23 mg/mL. Sixteen blood plasma samples all of them contend approximately 90 mg/dL of LDL were studied and the LDL concentrations were calculated with our method. The average LDL concentration obtained was 94 mg/dL. The results show that the EuTc complex can be used as a sensor to determine LDL with fast response, compact design, and reproducible results.

A very good Bruckner 9, but not Wand's absolute best,
This review is from: Bruckner: Symphony No 9 (Audio CD)
There has arguably been no finer interpreter of Bruckner's 9th Symphony over the last few decades than Günter Wand, and a number of his performances have been issued on CD. This particular version was recorded live in September 1998 and collectors may well be tempted by the fact that the orchestra is the Berlin Philharmonic, with whom Wand worked with fairly regularly in the last decade of his life.
The performance of the 9th Symphony in this 1998 recording is warm, powerful and profound. The 86 year old Wand secures superb playing from all departments of the orchestra, and the recording quality is excellent. However, there are at least three performances of Bruckner's 9th which I think are even finer. First and foremost among these is Wand's performance with the Cologne Radio Symphony Orchestra, dating from 1979. It is a dramatic, powerful reading and an emotionally engulfing experience. Currently only available as part of a collected edition of the nine Bruckner symphonies, the quality of the 1979 performance almost justifies the purchase of the whole set. Another outstanding version is Carlo Maria Giulini's 1998 recording with the Vienna Philharmonic. It is an immensely spacious, intense and spiritual performance. I've not heard a more moving version of the coda of the Adagio than the one on this recording. Finally, there is Daniel Barenboim's 1991 performance with the Berlin Philharmonic, which finds a satisfying balance between the emotional power of the Cologne Wand performance and the spirituality of the Giulini. Like Wand's Cologne recording, it is currently only available as part of a nine disc set. However, Barenboim's set also has outstanding performances of symphonies 5 and 7 and is altogether very recommendable. Although Wand's Berlin performance is impressive, ultimately I do find the other three versions more satisfying. Comments

Apologies for the typo. The Giulini recording was in fact made ten years earlier than I inidicated, in June 1988.

This invention relates to the use of a graphical dashboard in a computing system.BACKGROUND In today's business society, customer relations and customer satisfaction are critical for successful and profitable operations. Customers purchase various products and services from a variety of providers, and use various purchase means. Whencustomers purchase various products and services, they often have questions, concerns, or complaints about their purchases. To maximize customer satisfaction, businesses must be capable of responding quickly and effectively to customer questions,concerns, or complaints. Many businesses employ customer care agents in interaction centers (IC) who are responsible for interacting with customers. These agents may interact with customers personally or over the telephone. More recently, manycustomer care agents engage in interactive chat sessions with customers over the Internet or by e-mail and other channels. These chat sessions allow agents to communicate quickly and easily with customers all over the world. In recent years, interaction centers have become much more widespread. A call center is one type of IC that has agents to receive calls from customers. The interaction center agents may deal with, for example, customer service calls or salescalls. The interaction centers manage many efforts, and interaction center agents working in these centers often place and receive thousands of calls to and from various customers in different regions of the country. These agents often use headsets tospeak with customers while they enter information relating to the customers into a computer workstation. Managers may be hired to improve the efficiency of the interaction center. A manager may need to monitor the activities within the center and, in particular, the activities of interaction center agents working in the center. Managers may check the real-time status of the interaction center to assure that interaction center agents are adher

Where the voice of the wind calls our wandering feet, Through echoing forest and echoing street, With lutes in our hands ever-singing we roam, All men are our kindred, the world is our home.

As we pluck out the shafts, stand aside! here's the battering-ram, Capricornus, or the Goat; full tilt, he comes rushing, and headlong we are tossed; when Aquarius, or the Waterbearer, pours out his whole deluge and drowns us; and, to wind up, with Pisces, or the Fishes, we sleep. by Herman Melville | ...go to quote | +Fav

How do we reconcile evidence that animals have been living and dying steadily for millions of years with the biblical idea that death did not occur until after Adam's fall.

Early Answers De Maillet—1748 Aquatic animals evolved land counterparts De Maupertuis—1745 Species are not fixed. Acquired traits or sports may be passed on Buffon—1749,1766 Families were fixed, but variation of species in families could vary Lamarck—1802,1809 Species evolved by passing on acquired characteristics Erasmus Darwin—1731- Supported evolutionary 1803 ideas similar to Lamarck Ralph Waldo Emerson on Evolution [Ralph Waldo] Emerson's fledgling evolutionary faith began to emerge in his 1834 lecture "The Relation of Man to the Globe." [after reading Sir Charles Lyell's Principles of Geology] . . . "Man," Emerson said, "is no upstart in the creation, but has been prophesied in nature for a thousand thousand ages before he appeared." . . . "[F]rom times incalculably remote" there had been a "progressive preparation" for the human species, carried out in the lower or "meaner creatures" preceding it. "Man," as Emerson told his audience, "was not made sooner, because his house was not ready."4 Emerson (Cont'd) In this same lecture, Emerson chronicled the way in which the hard rock that once surfaced the earth gradually became covered with soils more hospitable to life. With this development the "first faint traces of vegetable and animal life begin to appear, and in the lowest strata the most imperfect forms; – zoophytes, shells, and crustaceous animals; then fishes and reptiles."5 When these rudimentary forms had existed for some time, "Then a new formation – the remains of a new and higher order – begin to appear, more nearly resembling man, and giving earnest of his approach; and as the new race waxes, the old race retires."6 Emerson (Cont'd) As a result of his scientific studies, Emerson concluded that one of the distinguishing characteristics of the "present age" was "the study of organic remains," and that "solid learning is got from the fossils." When we look at the geologic record, he reflected, there are "No leaps, no magic," but rather the "eternal tranquil procession of old familiar laws.[1834]" (Gordon, Robert C., PhD) Cuvier's Proposal The world has gone through a number of great catastrophes, with the flood being the last. After each catastrophe, God would repopulate the earth with a new creation and a batch of new species. A New Proposal Charles Darwin, in 1859, proposed a "theory of descent with modification through variation and natural selection." Charles Darwin--Background It was intended that Charles, like his father and grandfather, would become a doctor. At Edinburgh, he could not bear to watch the surgeries, done without anesthesia, so he dropped out. Later, he finished his studies at Cambridge, where he studied for the ministry. However, at Cambridge he developed a passion for collecting biological specimens. Charles Darwin--The Journey His mentor at Cambridge, Henslow, recommended him to be ship's naturalist on the HMS Beagle. Darwin embarked on Dec. 27, 1831, for what became a 5-year trip mapping the coastlines around South America and elsewhere. He took with him volume 1 of Sir Charles Lyell's new book, Principles of Geology. This book argued that the world was millions of years old, with changes taking place slowly. Charles Darwin--After the Journey Darwin's journals and specimens had assured him a good reputation before he had returned. He "wrote the book" on the formation of coral reefs. He did ground-breaking research on barnacles. Charles Darwin--The Theory Darwin, in 1838, read Robert Malthus's Essay on Population, an essay that argued that animals would have to struggle to survive since they would multiply faster than the food supply. For the first time, Darwin thought of a mechanism to explain how extinct species could be related to current species and how species could vary. Nature was not unlike a breeder of horses; creatures with mutations that helped them get a meal (or escape being a meal) and a date were selected over others. Natural Selection at work <Bird of Paradise> Charles Darwin--The Theory In 1842, he wrote out a 35 page pencil sketch of his ideas. In 1844, he expanded it to 231 pages, put the manuscript in a safe with some money and instructions to publish it after he was dead. He wrote to Lyle, Hooker, Huxley and others, explaining his theory. He continued research on the theory of natural selection. Charles Darwin--The Theory In 1845, he wrote, "In my wildest daydream, I never expect more than to show that there are two sides to the question of the immutability of species." (Irvine) During the next few years, he corresponded with Alfred Russell Wallace, a naturalist in Indonesia whose observations were leading him in the direction Darwin had gone. But Wallace's ideas were tentative and undeveloped. Darwin--The Impetus to Publish The bombshell came on June 18, 1858. Alfred Russel Wallace sent Darwin a long letter outlining his new theory of species emerging, reaching the same conclusions in an uncanny parallel to the way that Darwin had. Charles Darwin--The Theory In 1859, Darwin published On The Origin of Species. Darwin's Three Premises • Creatures produce more offspring than can survive. • There is great variation within a species. • Some of that variation is passed on to future generations. Darwin's Conclusion--# 1 Natural Selection In a natural setting, through natural selection, any variation (i. e. mutation) that helps an organism adapt to the environment, i.e., get food, escape predators, and find a mate, is most likely to be passed on. Darwin's Conclusion--# 2 Varieties could become new Species Given the geologic age of the earth outlined by Lyle, the variation occurring within a species could become so great that varieties would become new species. Given enough time, all species could have evolved from one prototype. Evolution -- Fact or Theory? • Since "descent with modification," Darwin's idea of evolution, is a fact, what is the big controversy over Darwin's theory? • Dogs, which come from one common ancestor, have evolved into great varieties. • Cows give more milk, pigs have less fat, tomatoes are larger, sheep have more wool, turkeys have more white meat--many things have evolved. Darwin's Controversy # 1 Natural Selection The controversy hinges on two main points. First, while the variety among dogs, cows, etc., is created by artificial selection, Darwin argued that competition in nature would cause the same kind of variety by natural selection, without divine direction. Darwin's Controversy # 2 New species could evolve from varieties Second, given the great age of the earth proposed by Sir Charles Lyle, variations within a species could cross the genetic line and become separate species. In fact, concludes Darwin, all species might be developed from one original prototype without divine intervention. Darwin was impressed by "the extreme difficulty, or rather impossibility, of conceiving the immense and wonderful universe, including man . . . As the result of blind chance or necessity. When thus reflecting, I feel compelled to look to a First Cause having an intelligent mind in some degree analogous to that of man, and I deserve to be called a Theist. . . . [But then] arises the doubt, can the mind of man, which has, as I fully believe, been developed from a mind as low as that possessed by the lowest animal, be trusted when it draws such grand conclusions.?" (Qtd. in Midgley, Mary. "Purpose, Meaning and Darwinism." Philosophy Now Jan./Feb. 2009: 16-19.) Summary • Darwin did not introduce the idea of evolution; rather, he proposed the theory of Natural Selection. • Darwin did not claim that humans came from monkeys; rather, he theorized that all species may have come from earlier prototypes, perhaps from one single prototype. • His theory has profoundly affected the way we think about science and nature. • For over a century, his basic claims have been largely supported by scientific studies. Herbert Spencer The Application of Evolutionary Thought to Society in "Social Darwinism" • Spencer was a prominent Victorian scientist whose aim was to bring fields such as psychology and sociology within the same framework and rigor as the natural and biological sciences. • His social theories became known as "Social Darwinism" and were applied to capitalism, communism, and the nationalism that was the beginnings of the Nazi movement. Herbert Spencer The Application of Evolutionary Thought to Society Capitalism and "Social Darwinism" Capitalists such as Andrew Carnegie and John D. Rockefeller argued that capitalism was the best form of "survival of the fittest." They argued that the government should not help the poor, infirm, or unfit. If the lower classes died in their factories of mills, that was just a natural process by which society was improved. Rockefeller called it "a Law of God and of Nature." Herbert Spencer The Application of Evolutionary Thought to Society • Communism and "Social Darwinism" Karl Marx saw in "Social Darwinism" the idea that we could alter the environment of individuals and thereby develop new traits and qualities. For example, the abolition of private property could lead to humans getting rid of their aggressions, leading to a Utopian society. Herbert Spencer The Application of Evolutionary Thought to Society Nazism and "Social Darwinism" Early German nationalists argued that nations were essentially the same as members of a species. When fighting between nations occurred, the human race was made "fitter.' They also argued that it was a natural process to eliminate inferior nations or peoples.

The ah is how much stored energy the battery has in it. Just for reference c cells are 5-6 thousand and d cells are 10-12 thousand. 1 ah= 1000 mah
Here's some battery options
Here's some setups that are ready to go, scroll down the...
Amp hour wise it's about the same as the c cells but I'll bet you get better performance and little better battery life out of the SLA .
Should be all you need. Just make sure the camera is setup for a 12volt external and be sure you get the positive and negative wired correctly.
SLA is a type of battery, Sealed Lead Acid
Check with moultrie or guys like Custom1enterprises, CAMO, and Theoutdoorspy and see what they offer. You could also buy yourself a 12 volt SLA and get the correct plug and make a setup yourself....
I think that camera has a port to connect a 12v battery. If you have the instructions check it out. That would be your easiest option.
Which camera?
Degrease the locks like you do a gun action, adding any type of oil will help keep the moisture out but will attract dust and in really cold temps can thicken and seize the lock. They make little...

Ok, lemme know. If need be you can send it to me for repair.
What's it doing or not doing?
Yes, 26 gauge wire.

Got this picture from someone I was helping out today. Not sure if it's the same model but might help.

Make sure you try and lift them up a little to. They usually don't look bad but I have seen many many cameras that wouldn't power up due to the contacts being dirty or oxidized.

If you need any help just ask, I've built a few.
First off if that $85 camera suits your needs you probably should go for it. The advantages you would get from building your own are that you can build that camera exactly how you want it and to suit...
The card could be going bad. To recover the photos I use a program called Sony file rescue, it's never let me down. You need the number from an authentic Sony memory card to get the program to work...
These cameras might not support SDHC cards, not sure though, might be better of with standard 2gb SD (no HC, high capacity) if that's what you are using.
Sprinkle some grape kool aid powder on the trophy rock and corn, they'll find it then. Make sure it's got the sugar in it, not just the 20 cent packet of flavoring. I usually buy a 5 pound bag of...
Try different batteries even if they are new out of the package.
OK, one more time since the limbs and arrows are almost done. I'll give it a week and then go to ebay. $215 each or both for $400. That's with all the accessories shown and TYD.
Price lowered to $245 and still will offer a package deal for both.

Springfield HotelsStep into the complicated cockpit of a retired Cobra helicopter, discover the violent history of Apache warriors, and explore the bustling streets of Downtown Springfield, lined with towering shop fronts and dotted with brightly colored canopies and ramshackle market stalls. Springfield is lively and welcoming, rich with history, and alive with festivals and music events. People crowd their way through its trendy shopping streets, stopping at quaint cafés for a light lunch, or diving into historic museums to learn more about its past. Things to seeOn the northern edge of Springfield, the Dickerson Park Zoo is a popular family attraction. Inside its carefully created enclosures, many of them uniquely crafted with native flora, live a wild collection of intriguing animals - from the towering height of regal giraffes to the lumbering hulk of ungainly hippos. You can explore you way through the zoo or visit one of its many events, witnessing feeding times, swinging like monkeys through its purpose-built adventure playground, or enjoying a rumbling ride on the Titus Express Train. At the Discovery Center in Springfield there's more to learn about our natural world. Exciting hands-on exhibits are appealing to visitors of all ages. Create energy as you run interminably in a giant rodent wheel, or steel your nerves for a ride on the HIghWire Bike exhibit. To get a good look at the city of Springfield, make your way to the top of glass-fronted Hammons Tower on East St. Louis. At just over 250 meters tall it's the highest building in the area and affords sweeping views over the rooftops below. You can enjoy your lofty city panorama with lunch at the exclusive Tower Club.Hotels in
SpringfieldSpringfield isn't overflowing with elegant, high-priced luxury hotels. Instead, it offers some great alternatives, including discount hotels that are ideal for families as well as couples. Rooms in popular chain hotels can accommodate groups very well. They're spacious, feature seating areas with convertible sofa beds, and have good sized private bathrooms with baths as well as showers. At the bottom end of the budget ladder, cheaper Springfield hotels still offer spacious rooms, and often offer complimentary breakfast, and free parking. They might be less expensive but they're still great value, and generally the only catch is the location – you might have to travel further to visit local attractions. Where to staySpringfield is a typically American inner-state town. It's a crisscross of broad roadways lined with stylish private homes and single-storey restaurants. Large supermarkets like Walgreens are found on several street corners, next to shopping centers with Barnes & Noble bookstores, Dillard's shops, and car dealerships. A little further south you'll come across the quieter town of Ozark, a laid-back country town with pretty brick-built houses, a few white-painted trailer homes, and broad boulevards with plenty of local shops.How to get to SpringfieldSpringfield has its own airport that caters for domestic flights, but if you're coming in from abroad you have lots of choice. Tulsa International Airport, Kansas City International Airport, and Arkansas International Airport are all around the same distance from Springfield. If you're happy to hire a car, you'll find desks for most of the major companies in each of the arrivals lounges. Non-drivers can hop on an overland bus for an easy way to travel.

3D Systems
Rock Hill, S.C.-based 3D Systems made a splash last year when it debuted a new 3-D printer called the Cube, but had more news for the attendees of Build 2013: Windows 8.1 will come with embedded drivers, so users can print 3-D models directly from their device. By melting plastic strips, forced through a nozzle that traces the design sent from a 3-D imaging program and layers the plastic to a specified thickness, the Cube is able to "print" 3-D images in a matter of hours. The new plug-and-play capabilities of Windows 8.1, along with the Cubify software client program, will allow consumers to print wirelessly from the Cube, priced around $1,300, as easily as if it were a standard 2-D printer.

What does the name "Dorcy" mean? A name is much more than just a name!
D is for dignity, no one disputes this trait!
O is for orderly, a lifelong passion.
R is for relax, you know how!
C is for change, you are able to adapt.
Y is for yearn, your innermost desires.
Out of 5,552,452 records in the U.S. Social Security Administration public data, the name "Dorcy" was not present. It is possible the name you are searching has less than five occurrences per year in each state. You might want to use a short version of your first name or perhaps your nickname.
On the other hand, you simply have a name that no one else in America is using. For 134 years only your parents have thought of using your name. Hoorah! You are a unique individual.
Hey! How's your love life lately? Get a free love reading with the most frank answers. Start to seize every opportunity for success in your life! Did I mention it's FREE? (Sponsored Link; 18+ only)
Your name in reverse order is "Ycrod". A random rearrangement of the letters in your name (anagram) will give 'Ocrdy'. (How do you pronounce that?)
Your past life Dorcy:
I do not know how you feel about it, but you were a female in your last earthly incarnation. You were born somewhere around the territory of Western Australia approximately on 700. Your profession was monk, bee-keeper, lone gunman.
Your brief psychological profile in that past life:
Inquisitive, inventive, liked to get to the very bottom of things and to rummage in books. Talent for drama, natural born actor.
Lessons that your last past life brought to present:
There is the invisible connection between material and spiritual world. Your lesson – to search, to find and to use this bridge.
Now do you remember?
Dorcy, do you want to be popular with your friends on social media? Create a name project for all your friends using our mobile app. Cool – check it out – it's free!
Now try the names of everyone you know including friends, cousins, neighbors, classmates, co-workers or your pets. Even your favorite anime, TV or movie characters! See what their names mean. Remember, this is purely just for fun.
Here's something for you to ponder on...
The Theory Behind The Name Game - Finding a good baby name is one of the dilemmas that plague parents who live in a modern setting. Parents do have the right to be conscious about the name.

I've created a large-ish matrix by doing a =pearson( analysis on survey responses in google docs/spreadsheets and would like to convert it into a sorted list.
The matrix has labels (the survey questions) in row 2 and column b. Each intersecting cell has the value. Here's what the formula looks like.
=pearson(FILTER( Pc!$C$2:$AW$999 ; Pc!$C$2:$AW$2= C$2 ),FILTER(Pc!$C$2:$AW$999 ;Pc!$C$2:$AW$2=$B3))
This is what I'd like to get to:
a b c
Question one question 2 correlation
Then sorting by column c is easy.
How can I get all the points out of the matrix/array, along with the labels in this way?
Ideally I'd be able to do this only to points below the diagonal as there of course are dupes above..
