Hi friends, I know I asked this on here before, but for the life of me I can't find it. So here goes again...Here's my set up.d90 aimed at my waterdish. one sb600 pointed at the dish, the other on the oposite side aimed at my background. The distance is probably 6" from the waterdish, and the other 6" from the background. That probably has nothing to do with my question, but that gives the setup. I have the camera at iso 200, f8, shutter 200 which syncs to my 2 flashes. One is in group a, the other group b. Using commander mode, the built in flash is -- and both groups are at 1/25 (either 25 or 28, can't remember). Okay, finally for my question, which forgive me, I know I asked before, can't find the answer, but need to know..I can fire off probably a good 20 or so right off the bat. After that, maybe 5, then maybe 2. That's when it starts to get frustrating. That is when I start to finally see my waterdrops all coming steadily, click the remote (which is wired)and I get 2 shots, then I wait probably while a good 5 or 6 drops land, then I can get off another 2 shots. That makes for a looooonnnnnnggg afternoon. Why does that happen, and is there something I can do to make it not be that way. Any suggestions greatly, greatly appreciated. And "oh my", I used some coffee and milk today,,,OH MY ,,what beauties...thanks my friends.
Hi Darlene,It sounds like you are filling the buffer and waiting for it to write one or two images to the card. Then you capture a few more images and the buffer is full again. If your card is slower than the D90's maximum write speed you might gain a few extra images per unit time.Other than that, you will have to upgrade your camera body to one with a larger buffer and faster write speed.Good Luck and Enjoy your Nikons!
Best Regards,Marty
If as you say you can get upwards of 20 shots first time. How long do you have to wait before you might get close to that again?Wait maybe a minute and try -- if you get close to the 20, try waiting30sec.I don't know how big the buffer is or how long it takes to empty.The other question is - what format are you shootingraw, jpeg, raw+jpeg??You will likely get the most out of one of the jpeg modes. If you want raw, don't do raw+jpeg -- more to write to the card.Finally, what Class of card do you have? it should be shown on the card in brackets -- (6) (4) (10)You want at least (6) -- much more (e.g. (10) might get you a tiny faster write, but not much in my experience)
----Dennis Smith.

Other folks have covered the write speed of the camera to empty the buffer.Based on the numbers you are giving, the other possibility is that you need to give time for the speedlights to recharge. If you are running at 1/25 power, you can get about 25 rapid shots before the power is drained. Then you need to wait for the recharge.---------+---------+---------+---------+Joseph KSeattle, WA, USAD700, D200, D70S, 24-70mm f/2.8, VR 70-200mm f/2.8 II, 50mm f/1.4 D,17-55mm f/2.8 DX, 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 VR, 18-70mm f/3.5-4.5 DX
Yes, I'm running both flashes at 1/25, and like I said it starts off pretty quick with at least I know 20 or so shots, then it starts dying down to 2 which is soooo frustrating to say the least. I thought of the buffer, but surely it wouldn't be full that quickly could it? I'm leaning more towards the flash, because it seems to me that when I just shoot on continous not using the flash , this doesn't happen, at least not as quickly. If it was writing to the buffer, wouldn't my light on the back of the camera be blinking? It isn't. Also, I always start off with fully charged flash batteries, fresh formatted card and fresh camera battery. But it happens all the time. How long does it take for the flash to recharge and would I still just get 2 flashes off before it stops all over again? I can go out of the room, put the dog out, come back to the camera, and maybe if I'm lucky get 5 shots off then we start back to the 2 again..then wait.then 2, then wait..what a pain...I am using a sandisk 8 gb card that has a 4 on it. A hp 4gb card which I don't see any other number on it and a pny 4gb with a 4 on it..Does that help? The rechargeable batteries are energizers and they are brand new...
Well -- you should be able to remove the flash's from the test -- just don't use them and up the ISO -- see what happens.The Class (4) cards might be a bit of a problem.I have tested (6) vs (10) without seeing much increase. I have not tested (4)'s -- but I have read that they might slow things down a bit.
>Yes, I'm running both flashes at 1/25, and like I said it>starts off pretty quick with at least I know 20 or so shots,25 x 1/25 = 25/25 = 100% drained.>it seems to me that when I just>shoot on continous not using the flash , this doesn't happen,>at least not as quickly.

Have you considered using a computer to control the water drop rate, the water drop size, the camera shutter, and the triggering of the flash?Camer AxeValve Sensor Tutorial
GeorgeMy Nikonian Galleries
Now what fun would that be??????????? I just enjoy watching all the different drops hit and getting frustrated because I can't click the shutter......!!!!!!!!!!! Actually, I'm thinking along the lines of the stop shot,,,read a little about it..But sometimes I think it would ruin my fun and creativeness....(smile)
You might find the solution suggested will allow more creativity as one can control the rate of the drops and the camera shutter delay from the release of the first drop in such a way as to get an image of the second drop hitting the water spout or the crown of the first drop.

Measure for Measure
Analysis: Steaminess Rating
Exactly how steamy is this story?
If Angelo was in charge of this play's steaminess rating, he'd probably give it an "R" for the theme of "fornication" (sex outside of marriage) and all the dirty jokes about venereal disease and prostitution.
We, on the other hand, are giving Measure for Measure a PG-13 because, despite all the talk about fornicating, we don't actually see any of it on stage. In other words, sensitive audiences may want to cover their ears, but your mother will never tell you to cover your eyes during this play.

text: Company aims to mine resource-rich asteroids By Jason Hanna and Brad Lendon, CNNUpdated 0205 GMT (0905 HKT) April 25, 2012Planetary Resources says the right 80-meter asteroid could contain more than $100 billion worth of materialsStory highlightsSpace company Planetary Resources wants to mine asteroids for metals such as platinumThe company has big-money investors including filmmaker James Cameron and Google's Larry PageThe company hopes to dispatch swarms of Arkyd-300 prospecting spacecraft to orbit candidate asteroids The right 80-meter asteroid could contain more than $100 billion worth of materials, the company saidEric Anderson and Peter Diamandis pioneered the business of sending millionaire tourists to space. Now they want to mine asteroids for what they say will be tens of billions of dollars worth of resources annually for use on Earth and beyond.Seattle-area's Planetary Resources, backed by big-money investors including filmmaker James Cameron and Google executives Larry Page and Eric Schmidt, said Tuesday it plans to develop and launch a series of robotic systems and unmanned spacecraft, starting with its Arkyd-100 Earth-orbiting space telescopes that it hopes to launch by the end of 2013 to identify candidate near-Earth asteroids.The company hopes to dispatch swarms of Arkyd-300 prospecting spacecraft, which would orbit candidate asteroids and finish the process of determining what they hold, within 10 years. The Bellevue, Washington, company would then unveil a new system of spacecraft for the payoff -- mining precious metal, such as platinum, for use on Earth -- and extracting water, whose elements the company says can be used for fuel and life-support systems in space.In short, Planetary Resources hopes it will be in a very crucial and lucrative position of not only boosting terrestrial industry, but also setting up a network of fuel depots that humanity will need to better explore the solar system and beyond."The Earth is feeling a resource pinch, and ultimately we will have the ability to turn that which is scarce into abundant," Diamandis, who co-founded Planetary Resources with Anderson in 2009 but generally kept mum about the project until this month, said at a press event in Seattle on Tuesday. "It can be done, and yes, it's very difficult ... but the returns economically and the benefit to humanity are extraordinary," added Diamandis, who also is chairman of the X Prize Foundation.Company representatives said having platinum and other metals in more abundance would ensure humanity's continued ability to develop important electronics, and perhaps make them cheaper. A single 500-meter platinum-rich asteroid would have the equivalent of all the platinum-group metals ever mined on Earth, the company said. And the right 80-meter asteroid would have more than $100 billion worth of materials, Anderson said."We can use these asteroids to grow our prosperity for the future," said Anderson, who in the 1990s founded Space Adventures with Diamandis The company brokered millionaires' rides to the international space station on Soyuz spacecraft.Planetary Resources adviser and former NASA astronaut Tom Jones said commercial enterprises like this one can do things that governments can't: build multiple, simple spacecraft at relatively low cost, while accepting the risk of losing some vessels, and produce at a higher pace. He highlighted the potential usefulness of water extraction. The cost of bringing water to the international space station is $20,000 per liter, he said. "I believe that, beyond the international space station, we won't have a permanent presence in space unless we can reduce the cost of life-support systems," Jones said. "These materials can not only spur less-costly life support, but also generate wealth, which can provide support for more exploration throughout the solar system."Anderson said the investors realize the company could fail. "But (the investors) believe that attempting this and moving the needle for space is worth it," he said.The Arkyd-100 space telescopes will benefit more than just Planetary Resources, said Chris Lewicki, the company's chief engineer and a former NASA Mars mission manager. Schools eventually will be able to access them, making "a once-rare tool available to an entirely new audience."The company plans to be relatively small. It has about 24 engineers now, and though it is looking to hire, it doesn't anticipate hiring hundreds, Anderson said. And when mining starts, the company hopes to do it all robotically, because humans in space would increase the cost."There may be mining expeditions that require humans, but we would really try not to if we can, because it's better business," Anderson said.The company said it doesn't currently intend to launch its own vehicles, saying it is looking for "ride share" opportunities with other space entities that it didn't name.While Planetary Resources focuses on asteroids, another company said it's the moon we should be mining.Moon Express of Mountain View, California, announced Tuesday it had recruited five top lunar scientists to join its advisory board as it makes plans to extract precious metals from the moon.The company said asteroids have been hitting the moon for ages, depositing the precious metals they carry on the lunar surface."There is clear evidence of significant platinum group metals on the moon from Apollo samples and lunar meteorites, and we've discovered evidence for localized hot spots that will help us choose landing sites to practice mining techniques," Alan Stern, the chief scientist at Moon Express, said in a press release."I believe that the presence of water and ease of mining platinum group elements on the Moon's surface far, far trumps arguments that NEO's (asteroids) are energetically easier to get samples from than the moon," Stern said in the release.Moon Express plans to send robots to explore mining sites on the moon, the company said.More from usLongest-serving female senator in history to retireUndocumented immigrants want to enlistCleveland: 12-year-old's police shooting death his own faultPowered by Livefyre

"Great idea, but poor production"
The good: The Foundation Trilogy is, itself, a great sci-fi epic. This is a very good abridgement...basically, an audio play focusing on the dialog and "action" bits, and with much of the internal narration and descriptions of technology and scenery that made the full version somewhat odd (and overly wordy) are gone. The full version is pretty dry, and this is an improvement....I think this is a great idea.
Also the voice actors are pretty good...many of them are very good actors overall and they do a good job with this material.
It's also nice and cheap.
The bad: The quality of the production is poor. Some of the voices are faint and hard to hear clearly. There is a bit of hiss in the recording as well.
The ugly: The sounds effect and music are awful. Bad 1970's "electro-music" transitions and sound effects are pretty hideous and much louder than the voices (I found this less annoying listening through speakers instead of earbuds, although I still had to keep adjusting the volume). The echo/reverb effect used for the quotations from the Encyclopedia Galactica and elsewhere are unpleasant.
The Summary: I'm giving this 4 stars for a great idea and a great job until post-production. If Audible (or the BBC) could go through it and clean up the post-production, it would be excellent. I disagree with the other reviewers that categorize it as "unlistenable," but years spent of watching "Blake's 7" and early "Doctor Who" may have partially immunized me against the more unpleasant aspects. :-)
Note: There are very good unabridged versions of the 3 books of the Foundation Trilogy, read by Scott Brick, on Audible. Of course, it's 30x the price and 3x the length of this one.

Hartnup disease is a rare hereditary disorder that results in a rash and brain abnormalities because tryptophan and certain other amino acids are not well absorbed from the intestine and not well reabsorbed by the kidneys.
In Hartnup disease, the transport of amino acids in the intestine and kidneys is disordered. Hartnup disease occurs when a person inherits two copies of the abnormal gene for the disorder, one from each parent. The defective gene controls the absorption of certain amino acids from the intestine and the reabsorption of those amino acids in the kidneys. Consequently, a person with Hartnup disease cannot absorb amino acids properly from the intestine and cannot reabsorb them properly from tubules in the kidneys. Excessive amounts of amino acids, such as tryptophan, are excreted in the urine. The body is thus left with inadequate amounts of amino acids, which are the building blocks of protein. With too little tryptophan in the blood, the body is unable to make a sufficient amount of the B-complex vitamin niacinamide Some Brand Names No US brand name , particularly under stress when more vitamins are needed.
The intestine and kidneys function normally, aside from the problem transporting amino acids, and the effects of the disease occur mainly in the brain and skin. Although the disorder is present at birth, symptoms may begin in infancy or childhood, but sometimes they begin as late as early adulthood. Symptoms may be triggered by sunlight, fever, drugs, or emotional or physical stress.
A period of poor nutrition nearly always precedes an attack. Most symptoms occur sporadically and are caused by a deficiency of niacinamide Some Brand Names No US brand name . The symptoms resemble those caused by a deficiency of niacin Some Brand Names NIACORNIASPAN (pellagra—see Niacin Deficiency), particularly the rash that develops on parts of the body exposed to the sun. Intellectual disability, short stature, headaches, an unsteady gait, and collapsing or fainting are common. Psychologic problems (such as anxiety, rapid mood changes, delusions, and hallucinations) may also result.
Laboratory tests done on urine samples reveal an abnormally high excretion of amino acids and their by-products (such as serotonin).
The prognosis is good, and the attacks usually become progressively less frequent with age. People with Hartnup disease can reduce the number and severity of attacks by maintaining good nutrition and eating enough protein and supplementing their diet with niacinamide Some Brand Names No US brand name or niacin Some Brand Names NIACORNIASPAN (a B-complex vitamin very similar to niacinamide Some Brand Names No US brand name ). People may take nicotinamide to treat attacks.

Back to today and everyone else's tax deadline. For those Americans feeling inclined to take a chance and just not pay, NPR's Zoe Chace, of our Planet Money team, has this cautionary tale.
ZOE CHACE, BYLINE: Some musicians like to brag they have a lot of nice stuff.
YOUNG BUCK: (Singing) Shorty want to ride with me, ride with me.
CHACE: This is Young Buck, and he did have nice stuff, like nice wheels on his car.
BUCK: (Singing) I could show you I'm a rider, the 600 coupe with the old-school wires, Giovanni rims, with Pirellis on the tires.
CHACE: Young Buck used to be a part of G-Unit, the very successful label founded by rapper 50 Cent. As part of that group, he sold millions of records. He's from Nashville. And in his dining room he had eight white leather dining chairs. In his bedroom he had some blue cufflinks, some skull chains; in the basement a poster of "Scarface," a craps table, a tattoo kit. What do all these things have in common? Ask the Internal Revenue Service.
BRANDON GEE: I think the common denominator for all of them is they're things that the IRS believed could have been easily liquidated.
CHACE: Brandon Gee reported on Young Buck's situation for The Tennessean newspaper. He says one Saturday morning, IRS agents showed up at Young Buck's house. He owed six figures in back taxes.
GEE: It's very methodical. As things are being boxed up and taken out, they're being inventoried on a list.
CHACE: And then stored nearby at Young Buck's expense. His lawyer, Robin Mitchell Joyce, told me he thought his taxes were being handled by his business manager. They weren't.
ROBIN MITCHELL JOYCE: Is it just a hip-hop problem? No. It's an entertainment, a music industry problem.
CHACE: Horace Madison is the business manager for stars like Lil Wayne.
LIL WAYNE: (Singing) I'm a millionaire. I'm a young money millionaire, tougher than Nigerian hair. My criteria...
HORACE MADISON: I wish my clients bought 35 or even 50 thousand dollar cars. That's what they spend on watches.
CHACE: I asked Madison about Young Buck's situation. Why would someone who makes a ton of money get behind on their taxes?
MADISON: Most entertainers and musicians, they receive their money on a gross level with no taxes taken out of.
CHACE: Even athletes, Horace Madison says, they're paid a salary. Musicians aren't. And big entertainers make big money - 25,000, 50,000, 100,000 dollars a show, sometimes much more. In a couple of months, you're a millionaire, right? Nope. Madison says about half of what big stars earn goes to pay people that work with them, not to mention the lights, the sound, the tour buses. And then...
MADISON: On that half a million dollars, you need to make an estimated tax payment of $200,000.
CHACE: Quarterly. That's no joke. And on top of that, if you're an entertainer, what's a business expense can seem really murky.
MADISON: You're living this lifestyle where you're spending money that you think is tax deductible, and no, it's not.
CHACE: Madison has tried to deduct the watches, saying it's a necessary business expense for his client to have a certain look. The CPAs at his company threw it back. The IRS loaned Young Buck his refrigerator back and a few other things. But most of his stuff is still stored in an undisclosed location. His music catalogue is up for sale May 14th. Even his moniker, Young Buck, that might be sold too. There could be a new Young Buck running around. Willie Nelson, he had the same kind of problem.
WILLIE NELSON: (Singing) Who'll buy my memories of things that used to be?
CHACE: So he released an album to pay back the IRS. He called it "The IRS Tapes." Zoe Chace, NPR News.

TD-Complete Submission
What to expect when you're expecting (an acceptance letter)
4.15 / 5.00 4,479 ViewsEDIT: Changed the Sonic sprite colors. That's the palette I'm going to be using for Sonic in this series.
Here it is! The first episode of Mario & Sonic Worlds in Danger. Yeah, I know there are some similarities to Super Mario Bros Z in here, but that's because it's one of the series that inspired me to make it like this. Enjoy.
If the other 3 episodes are as good as this one episode 4 is getting a 5-star save from me. (it is still under judgment as of this post, I wanted to watch the first 3 episodes before watching it)
you get SMBZ done. you really are good at this , like Alvin was.
I appreciate that. I would like to see SMBZ finished.
It was awesome it would be cooler if u made it longer though and good fighting I want figure out how to do this soon
Awesome Movie! im a big fan of mario and sonic!
Thanks, man.
Its pretty good, but i will be blunt about this, i am getting really tired of these mixed video game hero series only because i have yet to see one actually COMPLETED (if there is one send me a PM of it, might boost my morale on this). but really man good video, I just hope this one has and end.
Don't worry. I have most of the storyline figured out. Including the ending.

Sport Lisboa e Benfica "B" is a Portuguese professional football team based in Seixal. Founded in 1999, dissolved in 2006, and restarted in 2012, it is the reserve team of S.L. Benfica and currently plays in Segunda Liga, holding home games at the Caixa Futebol Campus.
During the 2012–13 season, they played the home games at the Estádio da Luz until February 2013, when they moved to Estádio da Tapadinha to prevent excessive wear of the stadium's grass.[1] In 2013–14, Benfica B moved permanently to their own training ground now capable of receiving professional league matches. As a reserve team they cannot play in the same division as the main team, thus being ineligible for promotion. They are also not permitted to enter cup competitions such as the Taça de Portugal and Taça da Liga.
As Benfica sought a way to provide playing time for their youth players and reserves it created this B team in 1999, it officially started competing in the 1999–2000 season. After three seasons in the Portuguese Second Division, it suffered relegation to the Portuguese Third Division, where it would spend a further three years.[2] The team achieved promotion to the Portuguese Second Division in 2005. In May of the following year, the board of directors extinguished the side, which returned to activity shortly after as part of the Liga Intercalar. As part of the Liga Intercalar, the club's best league position saw them finish second place behind Estoril B in the south zone of the 2010–11 season.
Before the end of the 2011–12 football season in Portugal, seven clubs in the Primeira Liga announced there interest in constructing a B team to fill the six vacant places available to compete in the Segunda Liga for the 2012–13 season.[3] Of those seven, the six clubs which were selected to take part in the competition were the B teams of Benfica, Porto, Sporting CP, Braga, Marítimo and Vitória de Guimarães.[4]
The LPFP who organizes the professional football tiers in Portugal announced that for the clubs to compete next season they would have to pay €50,000 to register themselves in the league.[5] In addition the LPFP would also require the clubs to follow new rules regarding player selection in which each 'B' team must have a squad of a minimum of ten players who were formed at the club's academy as well as having an age requirement between 15 and 21 years old. The LPFP also went on to saw that the clubs are unable to compete in cup competitions as well as gaining promotion due to the possibility of playing the senior team. Each 'B' team may have 3 players above 23 years old.
In late May 2012, it was officially announced that the six Primeira Liga clubs' B teams would compete in the 2012–13 Segunda Liga which would increase the number of teams in the league from 16 to 22 as well as increasing the number of games needed to play in one season from thirty games to forty two games.[6]
In 2014, Benfica B was invited to play in the 2014–15 Premier League International Cup.

Apparently a hog farm in Minnesota is being sued because a worker died due to lack of oxygen while cleaning out one of their hog barns because nobody bothered to turn on the ventilation system while he went in there.
Now apart from the thought of how truly awful a way to die that would be, and how cruel it would be to fail to turn on fans for a worker cleaning out hog barns, what comes to my mind is that apparently, forced air ventilation is needed to keep enough oxygen in the air in these barns to sustain life. Given that power outages and equipment failures do indeed occur in rural areas, that would seem to be a strong reason NOT to use this particular design for raising lifestock.

More beautiful than pictured
By MAR
from PICKERING
I love everything about this top!
By Very Happy Shopper
from Ontario
I purchased both colours and they are very well made. They are also extremely flattering, the way the fabric falls away from the body.I wear the black multi with the black halftee with the lace insert and 3/4 sleeve under it and it looks so smart and with the grey multi I wore the white halftee with the lace insert, 3/4 sleeve and it looks great!! ( they are also available on TSC website.I think these tops would look amazing with a thin turtle neck sweater under them too.I LOVE Orange Fashions, especially when they are at reduced prices.Thank you TSC, please continue to bring Orange Fashions to us and many more showstoppers from them!! ( I purchased two of those as well )
Sorry, I forgot to add to my previous review for the Orange Fashions, I am a plus size in this line, please bring MORE choices in the plus size as I do find the regular sizes run on the small side.

Take a look at what the author says about the Pats. "21. New England Patriots - Tamba Hali, DE Penn State His stock shot up even more after Senior Bowl week. The Patriots could stand to get a little younger up front." They need to get young up front? With Warren (25), Wilfork (24) and Seymour (26), Yeah I would say their getting a little old up front. LOL. WTF? This guy clearly has no idea what the hell he is talking about! http://msn.foxsports.com/cfb/story/5329722
6'3", 267 lbs. - small for a defensive linemen. The Pats could possibly convert him into a linebacker. Dumb-arse comment about the Pats age.
No way in hell he's a linebacker. Hali is 275 pounds. For his first three years at Penn State, he weighed 290 and played Defensive Tackle. This kid is a Patriots style DE, perfect for the 3-4. In the NFL, he'd be playing end at 290 pounds. He's an excellent run stopper, but he's not going to be a holy terror on blitzes.
http://scout.scout.com/a.z?s=157&p=8&c=1&nid=1718791&refid=4345 Vrabel is listed at 261. Not much size difference.
http://www.nfldraftcountdown.com/rankings/de.html He is listed as 267 there...yes as a DE, but plenty of other sites list him as a 'tweener DE/OLB. He could easily shed 5-10 lbs., be the weight of say McGinest or Vrabel, and play LB in our system. If he goes to a team who plays a base 4-3, then he will probably play DE there.
I know this kid like the back of my hand. I've watched him play in about 40 college games, many of them live. He is at 275, and he's not going to get any lighter. He played at 290-295 at defensive tackle for about 3 years. If teams think they're going to play him at OLB, they are absolutely dreaming. His body type is definitely made for the DL. Not OLB material at all. He had to slim down big time just to get outside the middle, and when he did, he was stilla t 270-275.

2007 Zoé's Ark controversy
The 2007 Zoé's Ark controversy started when members of a French charity organization, the Zoé's Ark (French: L'Arche de Zoé), attempted to fly 103 children out of Chad to France. The members of the charity were charged and eventually convicted of child abduction.[1]
Events and trial[edit]
On 30 October 2007, six members of the charity organization Zoé's Ark were formally charged by the government of Chad for child abduction. Despite the group's claim that the children were orphans from Darfur who were being taken to be fostered in France, most of the 103 children have been found to be Chadian, and to have at least one living parent or guardian.[1] Three journalists, seven Spanish[2] Girjet flight crew members, four Chadian and Sudanese nationals, including two Chadian officials, were also charged for complicity.
Allegedly, some parents were convinced to give up their infants for promises of schooling, but had been told that the schooling would occur in Chad rather than France,[3] while some children were offered sweets and biscuits to leave home.[4] These claims have been denied by the aid workers. To ensure their authenticity as Sudanese war orphans, the aid workers applied fake blood and bandages to the children.
The incident has strained relations between the two countries, ahead of a planned deployment of French peacekeeping troops into the country. Anti-French protests have been staged within Chad.[5]
Over the course of the trial, all six aid workers participated in a hunger strike. Possibly as a result, one of the accused fainted in court and required hospitalization. The six were protesting at what they perceived as abandonment by French authorities.[6]
French president Nicolas Sarkozy successfully negotiated the dropping of charges and release of the journalists and flight crew members prior to trial. Six members of the group were convicted on 26 December 2007 and sentenced to eight years of forced labor, although they served just five months in France, which has no forced labor in its penal system, under an accord between Chad and France. The six were released in March 2008 but have been ordered to pay each of the 103 victims restitution equal to approximately $87,000, which amounts to $8.9M per defendant.[7] The founder, Eric Breteau, is among the six. A Chadian national and a Sudanese national were each also sentenced to four years. The two Chadian officials were acquitted.[2] In March 2008 the president of Chad pardoned the convicted aid-workers, and they were released from the prisons in France.[8][9]

AARON ELKINS new book Dying on the Vine will be published on December 4th. On Friday, December 7th Aaron will be at the Carver Room for another great reading and signing, the only planned event for this book. This, the 18th Gideon Oliver novel, takes the man known throughout the world of forensic science as the Skeleton Detective to Tuscany, where he looks into the apparent murder-suicide of a strong-willed patriarch of a famous wine-making family, and his wife. After examining the remains, Gideon concludes that it's an unusual double homicide instead. The family and its confidantes had motive and opportunity. Soon Gideon finds himself in a morass of family antipathies, conflicts, and mistrust, to say nothing of the local carabinieri's resentment. And when yet another relation meets an unlikely end, it becomes bone-chillingly clear that the killer is far from finished...

These paper drinking cups, manufactured by Stone & Forsyth Co., are at least 100 years old. By 1914, they were replaced by the "Baldwin Finback" which were more "Convenient, Hygienic — Safe".
I guess with all the sick heading to the mountains to "take the cure", it really was best to avoid spreading germs. Read more about Water Drinking in Public Places.
Without doubt, one of the best vids of the season. (via kurtvon.com)

Rail or Trail or "First-world Problem"?
All the "very cool, passionate, community-minded people" on both sides seem to have ignored a third-option – Rail-biking.
Richard B. did this back in the 90's – A Ride on the Adirondack Railway.
Non-motorized Re-Use. Leave the tracks. Get rid of the train. A healthy, cost-efficient, and non-polluting activity.
Look what they are doing in Korea – www.oceanrailbike.com.
As far as I can tell from my very brief research, Lake Placid, NY to Remsen, NY could be the longest Rail-biking trip in the world. Ride On!
Norway, Sweden, Belgium, Austria, UK, and FRANCE!!
Enjoy these Rail-biking videos.
Anyway, don't do this here – you could get injured or die.
It might be illegal too, you could get arrested.
