After prepping all day, my Mavericks Sledgehammer rocket blasted off the pad on a Aerotech M1550 Redline motor, brightly illuminating the clouds with its red 8 ft. tall plume. (large size, More Sledgehammer Shots)
This was the biggest launch of the day, with the largest motor class permissible in California. Pulled 8 g's on the way to 450 MPH.
Ground Video: My son set the camera on some rocks for the launch so he could cover his ears. =) So we don't have tracking, but a good sense of the sounds that the crowd heard back at the flight line.
It was a perfect flight, with on-board video capture the whole way, even through the landing.
On-board Video: For those new to high-power rocketry, I should explain a few items:
At the beginning, the beeping sound you hear is one of the flight computers signaling which of the pyro channels is connected. This is used to deploy the parachutes at apogee, based on barometric and accelerometer sensors.
The camera is pointing outward from the rocket, looking back to the flight line. It is a Sony PC-1 with a wide angle lens.
After launch, it goes into a bit of a spin. You can see how fast it gets up out of the clouds.
The turbulence up top is the BP explosion deploying the parachutes. The nose cone has it's own 60" chute and can be seen briefly.
I would not recommend watching the whole video as it takes a while to get back to ground… unless you are interested in the spinning survey of Snow Ranch.
At the end, an excited spectator helped me find and recover the rocket.
Also, I entered this launch in a contest to see how close I could get to exactly one mile of altitude (5,280 ft.).
Near the end, you can hear the audible signal of the peak altitude recorded by the flight computer: 5 beeps, 2 beeps, long beep, 4 beeps = 5,204 ft.
Not bad at all.
And so, I think this will be the first big rocket to earn a spot on the LUNAR mile high wall.
Marcelo Savoini, Oneras, Jim Somsel, and 29 other people added this photo to their favorites.
awesome video steve!
Love that sunlight on the rocks back there.
So how well did my parachute packing techniques work out for you? I'm am glad I could help you prep for the flight. Sorry I couldn't stick around and watch.
Go PC-1 !!! Talk about getting mileage out of a camera. Excellent Steve - making me think about rocketry differently. Nice Plume shot.
Thanks y'all. It was a blast.
Victor - go on. I like your thoughts.
A Stanley: It worked like a charm. And it was a challenging near-horizontal deployment. Since I have two chutes for the two separate sections, there was less chance of a head banger up there... but who knows, your nested loops in the kevlar cord may have prevented a nasty zipper.
heet_myser: me too. The setting sun near the end of the launch waiver made for some nice lighting as the rocket was in the shadows.
schoshie: waiting for copyright approval over there was just too much friction
Oh, and for a sense of scale...
The daisy chaining the cord helps prevent zippers and causes the chute to deploy more softly so it's not a instant jerk which can lead to ripped out u-bolts, zippers or broke cords.
cool, like the simple solution for stating the altitude, though I'm sure to some degree defining that would be more difficult
this is amazing!
May I have the honor of inviting you to join and post your photo in:
That is so Cool!
Seen in: I Saw The Light!
This is a cool rocket launch shot.. Its so much bigger than the little versions we fly over here in the UK... Nice!
Wooowww interessing photo!!!!
very spettecular photo!!
ciao ciao
This is beautiful. I've been wanting to get into advanced rocketry for a while now. This might be the inspiration I need.
Go for it!
I just noticed that Aerotech is using this photo and my Double-E to illustrate high-power and mid power rocketry in their Rocketry 101 page.

Can anyone tell me why my image looks bitmapped on the home page? It almost looks transparent. http://rope.watchhumansfly.com/ I uploaded it on the home page with the correct dimensions as advised. My background image uploaded fine.
The image being used it's this: http://rope.watchhumansfly.com/wp-content/themes/kingsize/images/upload/circus-update7hr.jpg
What you see in front of the image is a semi transparent layer. You can hide it by adding this to your CSS code:
.grid {visibility:hidden;}
Anyway there might be an option to disable that effect. Cheers
Perfect! It worked! Thanks so much!

Rough starts for Huston, Gore, Day yield improved results as week goes on
LA QUINTA, Calif. -- The long and winding road of Q-school is filled with bumps and potholes.
Back To School
In an effort to give ESPN.com readers insight into different golfers at various stages in their careers, we will select one player from each of the three categories listed below each day during PGA Tour Q-school and delve into their story of how they got here and where they are headed.The categories are: 1. PGA Tour veterans trying to hold on to their cards in the final years before they are old enough to attempt to play on the Champions Tour. 2. Players in the middle of their careers trying to revive a derailed PGA Tour dream or reach the tour after past failed attempts. 3. Rising stars seemingly destined for success who are trying to reach the tour for the first time.
Check back daily during Q-school for the latest news and results from one of the most grueling tests in golf.
Saturday's Players:
Veteran: John Huston
Career revival: Jason Gore
Rising star: Jason Day
-- Peter Yoon
"I knew I still had 100 holes to play," he said. "You can make a lot of birdies over 100 holes."
The real pressure will start to mount over the next two days. With 94 of the 163 players still within seven shots of earning a coveted PGA Tour card and 123 of them within 10 shots, hardly anybody can be counted out.That's where Gore, 36, said he hopes experience will come into play. Gore, who earned the moniker as the Prince of Pinehurst, held the 36-hole lead at the 2005 U.S. Open and was three shots out after 54 holes. But his dreams of a major were derailed after shooting an 84 in the final round. Two months later, he won the 84 Lumber Classic.
PGA Tour Q-school
1. Frazar (-24)
2. Aldridge (-20)
3. Williamson (-18)
T-4. Glen Day (-17)
T-4. Bryce Molder (-17)
T-4. James Nitties (-17)
T-4. Fathauer (-17)
• Complete scores
Still, Huston said, it's best not to rely on other people cracking under pressure. If he had his way, he'd be 10 shots clear of the cut line in the final round and be cruising toward winning the tournament instead of still trying to overcome a poor start."Hopefully, you get on a roll and you get to playing more toward winning than you do making it on the number," he said. "That's when it gets hard is when you're just trying to make it on the number. If you can get toward the lead and have that cushion going to the last day, that certainly helps."

JAXA Creates Camera That Can See Radiation 49
from the predator-mecha-are-next dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
So where is the data on how accurate it actually is? How does it work???
For example, this is informative.
http://imagine.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/features/exhibit/glast_exhibit.html [nasa.gov]
TFA about this device is useless.
I was wondering the same.
Detecting gamma rays is pretty easy. Detecting within a few degrees which direction they came from is much harder. Lenses and mirrors won't work (at least, at any reasonable scale) to form an image. You could have two layers of detector, and measure the location of the gamma ray as it passes through both. You could look for Compton scattered electrons from the gamma ray, which would be easier to determine the direction of, but I don't think that would fit in something camera sized.
I'm also curious to know what exposure time the gamma ray camera needs - I'm guessing it will be pretty long - minutes, at least, maybe hours.

Who Is Telling The Inflation Truth? The Government Or Mickey MouseSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 02/24/2015 14:22 -0400
Beginning at the time of Disney World's grand opening in 1971 when Magic Kingdom tickets cost only $3.50, Magic Kingdom ticket prices have increased at a compound annual growth rate of 8.04% – nearly double the U.S. CPI's compound annual growth rate of 4.13%. The U.S. CPI no longer accounts for the cost of maintaining the same standard of living in America. The Magic Kingdom Price Inflation Rate provides a much more accurate view of real U.S. price inflation.

The Reason Why The Eurogroup Rushed To Approve The Greek Reform Package?Submitted by Tyler Durden on 02/24/2015 12:51 -0400
The reason why not only the Troika received an agreed to version of the Greek reform proposals "before midnight on Monday", but rushed these through with a favorable agreement today, is that, drumroll, the European Commission prepared and drafted the whole letter!

Janet Yellen's "Humphrey-Hawkins" Testimony: Warns Rate Hike "Possible At Any Meeting" - Live FeedSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 02/24/2015 10:53 -0400
Fed Chair Yellen will be presenting her semi-annual monetary policy testimony - sometimes called the "Humphrey-Hawkins" testimony - today (Senate Banking Committee) and tomorrow (House Financial Services Committee). She is not expected to stray too far from the most recent FOMC statement's "On the one hand, there is recent strong labor market data; but on the other hand, the broader set of US activity data has not been as robust recently, and the inflation outlook has dimmed," uncertainty. The Q&A will of course contain the most fireworks (if last year's Yellen vs Warren deathmatch is anything to go by). Notably, The Fed will also release its semi-annual Monetary Policy Report (which last year contained the warning "valuation metrics in some sectors do appear substantially stretched.")

Chart Of The Day: The Run For Nasdaq All-Time HighsSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 02/24/2015 13:06 -0400
While there are many that suggest there is "no bubble" in the financial markets at the current time, a simple look at the extreme elevation of prices over the last couple of years is eerily reminiscent of the late 90's. Given the very elevated levels of investor bullishness, margin debt and complacency, there is more than sufficient evidence that a mean reverting event is highly likely at some point. However, at the moment, the perceived "risk" by investors is "missing the run" rather than the potential destruction of capital if something goes wrong. This is the opposite of what "risk" management is about...

Fed Warns Equity Valuations "Appear Stretched", P/E Ratios Are "Somewhat Elevated"Submitted by Tyler Durden on 02/24/2015 11:17 -0400
Confirming last year's warning, The Fed's Monetary Policy Report has sent a broad message to the markets in what may be Yellen's Irrational Exuberance 2.0 moment: "Overall equity valuations by some conventional measures are somewhat higher than their historical average levels, and valuation metrics in some sectors continue to appear stretched relative to historical norms... price-to-earnings and price-to-sales ratios are somewhat elevated, suggesting some valuation pressures... with heightened leverage that is close to levels preceding the financial crisis."

Despite being told by The Fed that stocks are over-valued, investors decided today was the day to take that money off the sidelines and BTFATH. Everything is surging in equity land as bad data, worse earnings, and Ukraine were trumped by a little old lady in Washington and a self-referential list of growth-destroying reforms for Greece. However, as investors sell sell sell their dollars (USD Index down hard) they are buying US Treasuries with both hands and feet...

US Macro Crashes Near 1-Year Lows, February Running At 90% Data Miss RateSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 02/24/2015 11:45 -0400
Despite this morning's US Services PMI rise, US macro data is running at a 90% miss rate in February and Richmond Fed's tumble from 6 to 0 (11mo lows) along with The Conference Board's Consumer Confidence dropping the most since Oct 2013 merely confirm this trend. This is the biggest 4-month slump in Richmond Fed since 2010 as practically every sub index deteriorated. California, Florida and New York saw over consumer confidence collapse and Texas saw 'present situation' plunge. US Macro data is now nearing its lowest in a year...

Services PMI Surge "Puts June Rate Hike Firmly Back On Table"Submitted by Tyler Durden on 02/24/2015 10:58 -0400
Worst. Case. Scenario. Markit US Services (flash) PMI printed an impressive 57.0 (smashing 54.5 expectations), well up from January's 54.2 as combined with the Manufacturing (soft survey data) suggests, according to Markit, that GDP is growuing around 3.0% annualised. Of course both these 'surveys' print positive amid one of the biggest declines and series of misses in US macro data of the last few years. As Markit notes, "The Fed will no doubt be encouraged by the resilience of the economy...and increasingly minded to start the process of normalising monetary policy in June."

NIRP Officially Arrives In The US As JPM Starts Charging Fees On DepositsSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 02/24/2015 09:29 -0400
The nebulous threat of NIRP in the US "some time in the future" became tangible after J.P. Morgan Chase, the largest US bank by assets (and second largest in the US by total derivative notional) is preparing to charge large institutional customers for some deposits. WSJ adds that JPM "is aiming to reduce the affected deposits by billions of dollars, with a focus on bringing the number down this year. "The moves have thrown into question a cornerstone of banking, in which deposits have been seen as one of the industry's most attractive forms of funding."

Case-Shiller Says "Housing Recovery Is Faltering" Despite December Home Prices Jumping Most Since MarchSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 02/24/2015 10:09 -0400
Home prices, according to Case-Shiller, rose 0.87% MoM in December (better than the expected 0.6% gain) for the biggest seasonally adjusted monthly gain since March, likely bringing the 'housing recovery is back on track' meme back into play (despite affordablity being a major driver of the slump in home sales). However, non-seasonally-adjusted the rise was a mere 0.1%, which nonetheless managed to snap the 3 consecutive months of sequential price declines. And yet, despite all this, Case Shiller was anything but optimistic: "The housing recovery is faltering. While prices and sales of existing homes are close to normal, construction and new home sales remain weak. Before the current business cycle, any time housing starts were at their current level of about one million at annual rates, the economy was in a recession"

Greek Bailout Extension Approved By EuroareaSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 02/24/2015 10:00 -0400
Just over a week ago, Yanis Varoufakis would have crushed and mangled anyone who would dare suggest that Greece would extend its current bailout program, because, the myth went, the new Syriza government had a mandate to end the Troika (since renamed to "Institutions") and to crush the Memorandum (aka "existing bailout programme"). Since then much has changed, and confirming that the new government is really the old government, Europe can now rejoice, because as Bloomberg blasted moments ago:
Which means that as the "valiant" in words, if not deeds, new Greek government rolls over, the DAX is about to jump to new all time highs making rich Germans even richer. As for Greeks, not so much.

10 Google Search Traffic Charts For The Fed To ConsiderSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 02/24/2015 09:53 -0400
As the market anxiously await Janet Yellen's Humphrey-Hawkins testimony this morning, hanging on every word and intonation, ConvergEx's Nick Colas is reminded of Harry Truman's famous request: "Give me a one-handed economist!" The U.S. central bank clearly feels challenged by the cross currents of the global economy even as it reiterates confidence in domestic growth prospects. In an effort to help clear things up, Colas brings some 21st century data to the Fed's distinctly old-school toolset and looks at the historical popularity of 10 Google search terms with a decidedly economic twist. Bottom line: the Google data is clear. The Fed needs to wait a while longer before raising interest rates.

I failed to winter protect my Glowing Amber and several lacecaps
Joopster(5 (Chicago))November 13, 2013
I failed to winter protect my Glowing Amber and several lacecaps before our first snow. I been so busy with my twins toddlers. Well, we got our first snow on Monday and last night the temp dropped to 20 degrees. Should I even bother trying with winter protection this weekend or forget about it?
They should be fine if it only fell to 20 degrees but winter protect before it gets any colder to protect the blooms for next year.
Also any branches covered by snow will be protected from colder air temps but once the snow melts they will be subject to the same air temps as anything above the height of the snow.

what do they look like
I ordered the QVC begonias and planted them, as directed, in pots about 3 weeks ago. Nothing was happening until yesterday when I noticed that 2 or 3 out of the 15 were getting little tiny seedling sprouting out. Is this what is supposed to happen or did I drop seeds from something else in my greenhouse inthe pots. Weeds perhaps?
Thank you very much. That is certainly not the seedling looking like thing coming out of the pots that I planted begonias in.
You are the best, this is exactly what I was looking for. A pitcture of what a begonia sprouting looks like.
the photos are exellent. They belong in a text book.
thanks for sharing them. Very educational.
My begonnias are in my shade garden. This past winter they continue with their beautiful green foliage. Just before spring they started to bloom again. Here in Florida they can not stand full sun

Helping Teenagers "Love" BetterPosted by: | Comments
As February 14 and Valentine's Day quickly approaches, many teenagers find themselves in an incredibly vulnerable position.
For those in a relationship, Valentine's Day brings up questions: What present do you get? Where do you go for dinner? Is it time for the relationship to progress physically?
Those who are not in a relationship see Valentine's as the day where they are painfully aware they are alone with no flowers, date or sappy Instagram post in the near future.
Relationships are difficult and awkward at any age, but especially for teenagers who still haven't figured themselves out, much less how to navigate a relationship with another searching teenager. Unfortunately, the relationships many of our teenagers are learning from on social media, TV and movies are unhealthy, abusive, manipulative and obsessive.
How can we show our teenagers what real healthy relationships look like?
In a world with competing depictions of love, we have to intentionally talk about and show teenagers what healthy, loving, realistic relationships look like. This by no means implies that you must have the perfect relationship yourself (we are shooting for realistic, remember?), but it does require some transparency.
3 THINGS A SMALL INNER-CITY MINISTRY TAUGHT ME ABOUT WORKING WITH STUDENTSPosted by: | Comments
This past week I had the opportunity to travel with our church's youth group to Nashville, TN on a mission trip. After years and years of leading these kinds of trips, this was the first one I wasn't in charge of, and thus had some more time on my hands to simply observe and enjoy. We worked with an organization called Y.E.S. (Youth Encouragement Services) which has three different locations spread throughout Nashville. The closest thing I could compare it to is a Boys and Girls club, but with several differences.
Y.E.S. serves kids from ages 4 to seniors in high school. All in the same gym. Now, everything I have ever been taught about working with kids told me a place like this would never work. How on God's green earth would a four year old be able to effectively interface with a senior in high school? Wouldn't the senior think playing with a four year old as something stupid and not worth the time?
Well, as you might think – I was wrong. I am a lot, actually. Immediately, we were struck by the simplicity and beauty of this organization. The main leader, David, simply had to blow his whistle once and all of the kids lined up and got quiet to hear him share what they were going to do today. Really. 80 kids got quiet at the sound of one whistle. And, it isn't what you think. This guy wasn't a drill sergeant or an intimidator. Those kids simply respected and trusted him.
So, why was this? The simple fact 80 students would fall silent at a whistle stupefied me for most of the week. There was no good reason outside of abject fear these little kids would be so respectful and "bought in" to what was going on at Y.E.S.
After many conversations and observations throughout the week, I concluded the main reason these little kids were so into what was going on with Y.E.S. boiled down to the teenagers in the room. There was a small handful of students 9th-12th grade who had been in the program since they were young. Several of these students were even older than 12th grade and were serving as interns and assistants. When one of the little kids broke one of the rules, it was the teenagers who went over and corrected them, not the director. When the director blew the whistle, the teenagers got quiet too. They served food, cleaned up, played with the kids, and even took out the trash.
The fact these teenagers were so invested taught me three things about not only working with teenagers, but how to build community with teenagers.
1. Teenagers can rise to the occasion.
If you watch commercials or anything on TV, you would assume most teenagers are drooling idiots, married to their phones, and completely disconnected with reality. While with some this may be true, seeing these students rise to the occasion of leading within this organization shows that the expectations were set really high. Simply, if they wanted to be part of Y.E.S, they would have to be invested in its welfare. The little kids needed to see them care about what happened within those walls. I believe the director set a really high standard for these older kids….and it shows in their leadership.
Too often we fail to realize the potential in our students. Yes, they are at a rather flakey stage of life (adolescence), but setting the bar high will never do a disservice. Yes, you might be disappointed from time to time, but when a student understands you have great expectations for who they are and what they become, they tend to rise to those levels.
2. We need to stick with our students.
As those who work with students, we need to be willing to be consistent and constant as they develop. All teenagers can be difficult at times and will likely disappoint us, but what if we stuck with them for the long haul, no matter what? Seeing these students who had been under the care of David for so many years, I could see the fruits of that longevity. They had a lot to lose if things went wrong around there since they had not only been invested in for all of these years, but were now investing themselves.
Too many adults have abandoned their posts with teenagers. Teachers, coaches, and youth ministers cannot be the only ones speaking into the lives of a student. We need to be there, choosing to stick with them because it is our choice. There is something to being chosen that speaks value and worth. Let's choose to stick with our students.
3. Students can care about others than themselves
This is the one that got me. While I love working with students, they are developmentally in one of the most selfish stages of life. By definition, adolescence is about finding yourself. So, much of a teenager's task is inherently selfish. But, to see a student turn their gaze outwards and understand their responsibility to care for those younger is a thing of beauty. I believe one of the reasons this organization works so well is because the older students feel a responsibility for the younger.

Policy Routing for Fun and Profit
Sangoma is a manufacturer of PCI-based WAN interface cards. For demonstrations and redundancy, we have two separate high-speed Internet connections: a full T1 carrying Frame Relay, using our PCI S5148 T1/E1 modem, and an ADSL connection carrying PPPoE over ATM, using our PCI S518 ADSL modem. The ADSL line is shared with our fax machine, the only telephone line not connected to our PBX. We use two different ISPs for the services. The ADSL and fax telephone line are provided by Bell Canada's Sympatico service, and the T1 Frame Relay connection is provided by MCI.
The combination of the installed T1 and ADSL Internet links provide reliable connectivity, but the resultant bandwidth is excessive for our requirements. Sangoma's Web site is hosted by Earthlink in Atlanta, so our Internet access requirements are not too different from any other company's, primarily e-mail and Web access, with some FTP traffic mainly as uploads to the FTP server on our Web site. We could manage without a fixed IP address, although we do find it valuable that the T1 link is provisioned with a range of fixed addresses.
All our Internet servers are Linux-based. Although we support Windows, FreeBSD, Solaris and other popular operating systems, Linux is our most important platform, and only Linux has the rich toolset of traffic management routines we need. The layout is shown in Figure 1.
The ADSL line is inexpensive, especially after the rebate we get for using our own ADSL modem instead of the consumer-grade external ADSL modem normally provided as part of the service. T1 in Canada is expensive as compared to the US; the cost of a standard unrestricted T1 Internet link can exceed $1,900 CAN ($1,450 US) per month.
Sangoma resells Internet access to two other tenants in our building to offset costs somewhat. The other parties sharing our connections host Web and VPN services, so they need both fixed addresses and high outbound bandwidth, which is why they are interested in sharing our T1 line. The private and public segments of the T1 line are shown in Figure 2.
The two Sangoma Linux machines could be combined into one quite easily. The combination router would have another NIC to support the public network segments to customers A and B. Sangoma's firewall would operate between Sangoma's private LAN segment and all the other public segments, which include the Frame Relay T1 link, the ADSL link and the public Ethernet link.
The financial contributions from customers A and B are not enough to pay for a full T1 at Canadian prices. The solution for us was to employ a usage-based service for T1. This is a so-called burstable T1 service, which is about half the price of a full bandwidth T1 line. The T1 use is unrestricted up to the full bandwidth of 1,536Mbps full duplex. Billing is based on the 95th percentile of the bandwidth used. Traffic is sampled in five-minute intervals, and the average bandwidth for the five minutes is calculated. At the end of the month, these five-minute bins are arranged in decreasing order of bandwidth. The top 5% are discarded, and the billing rate depends on the next highest bin for the month. The trigger throughput in our case is 128kbps. If our 95th percentile throughput exceeds 128kbps, the monthly line charge is incremented by a minimum of $300.
This complicated billing structure is hard for subscribers to understand. It looks like a good deal to the customer but is difficult to manage and hard to measure. The billing rate is measured at the 5% level, where the rate of change of the usage curve is near a maximum. So, many users find themselves paying high bills that depend on the bandwidths of only one or two five-minute bins out of the more than 8,500 bins measured each month. Unless one's traffic is consistently low, one quickly finds that the surcharges are such that one may as well bite the bullet and take the full T1, even though the average throughput may be well below 128kbps.
The major plus is that the highest 5% of bandwidth usage for each month is "free". This amounts to about 36 hours per month at any bandwidth without penalty, so almost a full working week out of the month is available at full line speed. Figure 3 shows the ideal traffic pattern for achieving the highest throughput for the lowest cost on our burstable T1 service. Essentially, the aim of the traffic control logic is to restrict the T1 bandwidth to 128kbps after the first free 36 hours of unrestricted bandwidth has been consumed in a given month.
So how do we manage to take the bait without the hook? With a series of scripts and dæmons that use a combination of policy routing, IP accounting and traffic shaping we can manage the network intelligently, so both we and our co-users get maximum performance at minimum cost.

Health Benefits of Drinking Boiled Water
If drinking water in your area is contaminated, make sure to boil the water before drinking or cooking with it to prevent water borne diseases. Boiled water is good for us, because boiling helps in removing viruses and bacteria from the water. Recommendations suggest that we should drink at least 7-8 glasses of water each day, but according to ayurveda, boiled water has many surprising benefits. Boiled water helps to flush out the intestinal system and improve bowel movement.
So there are many health benefits of drinking boiled water. We all family members are drinking boiled water for last 27 years, but before 12 years I never knew that boiled water has so many health benefits, which I came to know after reading many Ayurvedic books and by talking to ayurvedic doctors. Almost 4 months ago, we bought this new home, which is more bigger than the previous one. So of course more expenses.

Answers (1)
I don't think two years ago I had benigh prostate hyperplasia symptoms. What is the proper way to quit avodart. One every other day, then 2 or 3 a week, then 1 or 2 a week. The only symptom I might have at this time is I stop and start toward the end of each time I urinate. How about flomax or something else if I have should have trouble going?
Yes, you could try Flomax if your symptoms return. Please let your doctor know before you stop though.

Apple launched iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite, the next major upgrades to its mobile and desktop operating systems, respectively -- but didn't reveal any new hardware products at its Worldwide Developers Conference.
The iOS 8 release offers "great end-user features, but it also has great developer features," CEO Tim Cook said at WWDC, which kicked off Monday in San Francisco. "It's huge for developers, and massive for everyone else."
Apple historically has not introduced new hardware at WWDC, but investor may have been expecting something special -- such as a rumored "iWatch" wearable computing device -- given that it was the first time the company was live-streaming the event's opening keynote. Apple shares dipped as much as 1.7% Monday, closing at $628.65 per share, down 0.7% for the day.
New features in iOS 8 -- to become generally available in the fall -- include integration between Siri and Shazam's auto-content recognition to ID a song you're listening to; iMessage, to send audio and video messages from text chat; and interactive notifications, to let users take an action such as "liking" something on Facebook from an alert.
Enhanced keyboard features in iOS 8 include QuickType, which supports predictive text entry a la Android, and the ability to install systemwide third-party keyboards. The Touch ID feature for autologin via a user's fingerprint (originally introduced with iOS 7) is now available to non-Apple apps in iOS 8.
In addition, iOS 8 is more tightly integrated with the new Mac OS X Yosemite. That lets users receive and place calls from Macs -- which SVP of software engineering Craig Federighi used to call new Apple employee Dr. Dre. A "family sharing" function lets devices access content from up to six iTunes accounts that use same credit card, and iOS 8 also adds new photo-editing tools.
Another new product: iCloud Drive, which makes documents stored in Apple's cloud storage service available directly from iOS devices, Macs or Windows PCs.
Developer features in iOS 8 include: HomeKit, to let apps control devices in the home like thermostats and lights; and HealthKit, which lets apps monitor activity like heart rate or blood pressure (if given permission). Apple also debuted the new Swift programming language, which is be more efficient than the company's Objective-C language. All told, the iOS 8 software development kit includes more than 4,000 new application programming interfaces. The operating system upgrade also includes Metal, a new 3D-graphics technology designed to exploit the A7 chip to deliver what Apple claims are "console-class" games.
According to Cook, more than 130 million customers who bought an iOS-based device in last 12 months were buying their first Apple device, with many switching from Google's Android. To date, Apple has shipped more than 800 million iOS devices, including more than 500 million iPhones.
Apple's Mac OS X Yosemite, meanwhile, has a redesigned user interface with a common toolbar, translucent windows, new dock icons and a "dark mode"; an updated notifications center; and an enhanced search feature that spans desktop and Internet sources (including movie showtimes and iTunes content). Yosemite will be generally available in the fall of 2014 for free to Mac users, and available to developers starting Monday.
Among other features, the Safari web browser in Yosemite now streams HTML video for greater efficiency from sites like Netflix, according to Apple.
Apple also is adding new capabilities for the iTunes App Store, with a new "explore" tab, the ability to browse through categories and subcategories, a list of top-trending searches and an option to sell multiple apps in bundles for a discounted price. A new testing service, called TestFlight, lets developers invite users to beta test their app before release for free.
The WWDC announcements come after Apple last week announced a $3 billion deal to acquire the Beats Electronics audio products business and Beats Music streaming service founded by Jimmy Iovine and Dr. Dre -- the biggest ever for the world's largest technology company. Beats is estimated to have generated more than $1 billion in revenue last year, and the Beat Music service, launched this past January, has 250,000 paying subs.

As I watch the Win8 saga unfold, I'm struck by what I believe is a tactical error on the part of Microsoft, probably resulting from a strategic decision on their part. In order to drive user acceptance of a UI that integrates with MS's strategic plans for a single "user experience" across a broad range of device types, they have apparently designed and released a new OS that does not intentionally ease the transition in UI by having a single UI "choice" button right at the user's fingertips following bootup. Whether one can achieve such a "classic" UI via a path of multiple clicks and settings plus use of 3rd-party mods is irrelevant - it's not an inherent, "instant" part of the OS itself, and it's the OS that folks have just paid for, either directly or indirectly (as part of a new OEM system). It's the OS they will have to use daily for years to come.
Change is bad and serves no useful purpose. Never has. Never will.

Bob Stewart (Arrowhead Alpine Nusery)
Bob Stewart a great plantsman and conifer collector has passed with colon cancer at 58.He was a great guy to me with lengthy chats ,a wealth of knowledge.
not what i would call a close personal friend...
but i have been so bummed since i heard about this a couple weeks ago ...
his enthusiasm.. in whatever the topic of conversation was ... was inspiring ... much like the link below ...
all my best wished to Brigitta and their son Ender ...
RIP, Bob
Here is a link that might be useful: link
Aerohead Alpine Nursery is pretty close to Gee Farms.
Gary Gee, Henk and I also visited Brigitta.
Unfortunately she didn't make a new catalogue for this season and she is hoping that customers will order via the website.
We also took a look in her garden and till my surprise I rediscovered there the old Abies alba 'Tortuosa'.
At first sight I was pretty sure that it was this cultivar but a very old tag in the centre confirmed my thought :0)
In 99% of all cases the 'Tortuosa' in the U.S. is in reality 'Green Spiral'...
'Green Spiral' name was coined in 1979 in Britain for the plant being distributed in America mistakenly as 'Tortuosa'. So maybe the US trade has pretty much not ever picked up on the correction.
Due to cultivariance I have to wonder if it is really all the same plant, invigorated by seedling rootstocks part of the time or varying in mature habit for other reasons. If so it would not be the only cultivar that can either remain a bush or push up into tree shape and stature.
You've to see both plants with your own eyes to notice the differences.
'Green Spiral' will grow into a tree and will make a strong leader.
'Tortuosa' will grow more into a schrub form with several smaller leaders which doesn't show strong growth...
Again, other plants that are actually a single cultivar do the same thing also. It's called cultivariance. So that by itself is not infallible proof of genetic distinction. Have no idea what the actual situation is in this instance, no interest in (or basis for) pushing one or the other as the true case.
We discussed this before.
There's a huge difference between those cultivars!
The thing is that most plants in the U.S. which are labeled as 'Tortuosa' are in reality 'Green Spiral'...
I saw a true 'Tortuosa' at Arrowhead's which is very rare.
Go away with your cultivariance!

Hey guys, I'm brewing my first lambic this weekend and I've read a lot on the subject lately. I'm going to pitch a vial of WLP655 (Belgian Sour Mix 1) and maybe some us-05 or notthingham to give saccharomyces a little headstart.
I know repitching on that cake is something that will happens only in several months, if not over a year, but anyways... I like to know as much as possible on a subject before I get into it.
So.. I have a few question about it
1- I read about adding some oak chips, so the bretts and bacterias can make it their nest. Is it really important? I mean... I can see the idea of taking these inoculated chips to inoculate a beer (just pitch the chips in), but if I only put some new wort on the cake, is it still useful?
2- Should I repitch Saccharomyces also (cause they're all death and eaten)? Or pitch a pre-saccharomyces-fermentend beer on the cake?
3- Do people reuse the cake over and over (and don't wash this old dirty carboy for years) ?
You shouldn't need to pitch any sacch now. At standard ale temps, it's the fastest thing in the mix. Adding more sacch will make for less lactic acid production by the bacteria, which is fine if that's what you want. These blends do get more sour with every subsequent batch, so adding a little sacch to the second batch is not a bad idea, unless you want it more sour then the first. I don't think people use the same cake repeatedly, but you can certainly harvest and pitch like you would for clean beers. You shouldn't need to use any oak if White Labs doesn't.
Say no to intolerance: love gluten and lactose.
Okay thanks for the reply. I wouldnt something too sour for my first, so I thought i could add some sacch to give them a headstart, and let the bacts eat the dextrins (i'll mash high). Also that i will need 1.5 pack of nottingham on the same day for a DIPA , so i could make the 0.5 pack useful. Anyways, i'll see.
For repitching, i guess ill wait to see the results. But if I dont add any sacch, it would be a brett fermentation... Might be interesting for a future blend with a new bath.
Cheeze... How can lambics make you plan years ahead lol
I have a hard time waiting 2 weeks for the bottles to carb, so I can't wait two years or whatever for a lambic.
