During the Association for Computing Machinery's 33rd annual SIGIR Conference, on July 19-23, 2010 in Geneva, Microsoft Research is announcing enhancements to the Microsoft Web N-gram Services, available free via a cloud-based platform. Microsoft Research created Microsoft Web N-gram Services to help drive discovery and innovation by enabling scientists to conduct research on real-world, web data. Microsoft Web N-gram Services support many research areas that have the potential to change lives, including natural language processing and empowering people to take advantage of the vast amounts of information available on the Internet via new web search capabilities.
Introduced late last year, in partnership with Bing, the Microsoft Web N-gram Services public beta now is being extended beyond professors at accredited universities to include all researchers worldwide, provided they are using the service for non-commercial purposes. The service now also includes a predictive API in support of query-language models. By opening the service up to more researchers and making these important service enhancements, Microsoft Web N-gram Services will expand not only its audience, but also access to high-quality feedback
In the video below, Kuansan Wang, principal researcher at Microsoft Research Redmond, offers a more detailed explanation of Microsoft Web N-gram Services. Wang works with a team focused on developing technologies that provide a better understanding of human languages.
Professional gatherings such as the Web N-gram workshop during SIGIR 2010 serve as another important channel for using real-world expertise to enhance ongoing development of Microsoft Web N-gram Services. Research papers, selected by an international program committee, will be presented during the workshop and will be followed by discussions about the use of web-based data services for research. Workshops and other gatherings have been critical to the development of Microsoft Web N-gram Services from the beginning. After the expansion of beta availability announced during the International World Wide Web Conference in April 2010, for example, many researchers took advantage of the opportunity to work with the services. One such researcher, Li Ding of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, has his work on multiword tag clouds featured in this demo.
In addition to presentations, the workshop will include a panel discussion on issues related to query representation, including a rigorous definition of the task, modeling for the task, challenges and opportunities, implications for industrial research, and future research directions.
If you are attending SIGIR 2010, I cordially invite you to attend the workshop, at 9 a.m. July 23 and take advantage of this opportunity to share your perspectives and connect with other researchers in the field. To stay updated and to learn about opportunities to participate in ongoing development, please visit the Microsoft Web N-gram Services home page.

This morning, on the second day of Faculty Summit 2010, we at Microsoft Research are proud to announce seven of the world's top university researchers as this year's awardees for the Microsoft Research Faculty Fellows grant program. In its sixth year, the rigorous application process was opened to an international audience, giving away $1.4 million, with no strings attached. This year's awards will help to further research in the exhilarating fields of mobile robotics, natural language processing, algorithmic data mining with an emphasis on social-network analysis, and cryptography.
Microsoft Research provides the fellows with support designed to have a tangible impact on their research. Each fellow receives a $200,000 award, to be used at his or her discretion for an unrestricted range of expenses that, in past years, have included planning research agendas, hiring graduate students, building labs, and purchasing equipment. Since the 2005 inception of the Faculty Fellows program, more than $7 million has been awarded to 37 professors from 22 universities. These funds are used to explore high-impact research that has the potential to solve some of today's most challenging problems.
This year's fellows were chosen as a result of a multitier selection process that includes more than 100 reviewers, whose goal is to identify the future leaders of academic research while they are at the beginning of their careers. From three continents, 120 initial nominees were narrowed to 18 finalists, chosen to be interviewed by a panel of Microsoft Research executives, researchers, and faculty members from leading universities. Of those 18 finalists, the following seven were announced as the Microsoft Research 2010 Faculty Fellows:
This year, the Microsoft Research Faculty Fellows program included international awardees for the first time, awarding Stachniss and Fattal with fellowships to enhance their research.
Fattal explores the application of elliptic-type operators such as derivatives and wavelet filters for problems such as edge-aware smoothing and interpolation, image sharpening, and resolution enhancement
Raanan Fattal of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem sketches the custom hardware needed for a new project in computational photography while talking with Floraine Grabler, a visiting graduate student from the University of California, Berkeley. Fattal has been named one of seven young faculty members to receive 2010 Microsoft Research Faculty Fellows.
After receiving his award, Stachniss told us: "Being a Microsoft Research Faculty Fellow is simply great for me and my research. First, the award gives me the opportunity to focus more on my research activities and less on writing grant proposals. Second, the group of Microsoft Research Faculty Fellows is a great platform of bright people, and I will enjoy discussions with them. Third, being a Microsoft Research Faculty Fellow is definitively great for the CV when applying for other faculty positions."
Cyrill Stachniss, one of seven recipients of the 2010 Microsoft Research Faculty Fellows awards, demonstrates a mobile manipulation task, in which a robot has to place objects on a table, to Barbara Frank, a Ph.D. student, in the Department of Computer Science's Autonomous Intelligent Systems lab at the University of Freiburg.
When we asked Stachniss about his future plans, he replied: "The Microsoft grant allows me to react more flexibly on new developments and trends in robotics. I am considering spending parts of the grant on interesting new sensors to see how this will boost the performance of our robots."
Over the next year, the External Research Team Blog will feature a series of posts that take an in-depth look at our Faculty Fellows and what they have accomplished since winning their grants. Please check back to learn more about this program and how it benefits the academic research community.

Great discoveries are often the result of collaboration, and for three days this week, during the Microsoft Research Faculty Summit 2010, more than 350 attendees representing various universities, industries, and governmental agencies are gathering to combine forces. Participants will be looking to foster collaboration that advances research, inspires technological innovation, enhances the educational experience and cultivates the next generation of thought leaders.
Held at Microsoft's headquarters in Redmond, Wash. and hosted by Microsoft External Research, a division of Microsoft Research, the summit will feature the introduction of new technologies focused on space exploration as well as the announcement of the winners of the 2010 Microsoft Research Faculty Fellowship grants, which provide $1.4 million in funding each year to support professors who are exploring high-impact research that has the potential to help solve some of today's most challenging problems.
The theme of this year's summit, Embracing Complexity, aptly describes the work underlying the new Terapixel technology in the Microsoft Research WorldWide Telescope. Terapixel is the largest, seamless, spherical map of the sky ever created. It will provide scientists with the ability to navigate through space dynamically to make their own discoveries. Created from data provided by the Digitized Sky Survey-a collection of thousands of images taken over a period of 50 years by two ground-based survey telescopes--Terapixel offers a complete, panoramic rendering of the night sky that, if displayed at full size, would require 50,000 high-definition televisions to view. Terapixel draws on the power of the Trident workflow workbench and the DryadLINQ interface for .NET to combine thousands of images and systematically remove differences in exposure, brightness, and color saturation.

Another of the summit's intriguing presentations showcases how Microsoft Research and NASA will enable people to use the WorldWide Telescope to explore Mars virtually via a 3-D rendering of the surface of the planet and take interactive tours with noted NASA scientists James Garvin and Carol Stoker. This capability is the result of the Space Act Agreement signed by Microsoft and NASA in 2009 to inspire the next generation of astronomers to continue to pursue scientific discovery.

There are numerous Magento implementations for GoogleAnalytics, and this extension is not much different from others. The main difference is that this module makes use of Magento PHTML-templates and XML-layouts to build the various analytics-blocks - making it easier to modify things, but also to integrate Magento GoogleAnalytics into MageBridge/Joomla.
|Current version
|0.1.2 (Stable)
Magento CE 1.7 - 1.9
Magento EE 1.10 - 1.14
PHP 5.4.0 or higher
|Support Forum
|OSL (Open Software License)
The Magento core already includes support for Google Analytics, so why would you need this extension? The reason is: To override PHTML-templates if you want to. The core adds the Google Analytics code on the fly to every page, but in this, it bypasses the regular XML-layout system of creating Magento blocks. This extension changes that: Every single piece of Google Analytics code is applied by using a XML-layout-file that again refers to various PHTML-templates. The block-name to refer to is called ga_script.
If you want to modify the way Google Analytics works, this is the extension you need. Also, because GA is based on Magento blocks, integrating things with our MageBridge integration with Joomla! becomes very easy, thanks to the MageBridge Custom Block module.

Brokers have flocked to the Austaralian Broker Online forum to detail numerous experiences of older borrowers being knocked back by the banks.
Yesterday, Australian Broker reported that Ray Weir of Financial Solutions in WA had written to Treasuer Wayne Swan to demand legislation be changed to help older borrowers access credit.
Brokers responded on the Australian Broker Online forum with a litany of experiences and opinions with their older clients, many of whom had been refused credit due to potential hardship.
John Robbo was quick to weigh in, saying the problem "badly needs looking at".
"Classic example is a client of mine who is 56 and has a very high salary. Lives in a 9 bedroom 5 bathroom home in Sydney. Property is worth $2.7M and wants a $1.1m refinance. Nobody will do it," he explained.
"He wants to sell the home on or before retirement as it is massive and far too big for two retirees - but all lenders say that selling the property is unacceptable - even though he would have to sell the property if it was unencumbered because of its size. This policy is ridiculous!"
Despite other similar cases coming to light, SteveOz disagreed, saying "it's just not that simple".
"Given today's environment where people are unable to take responsibility for their actions and change their minds like the weather here in Melbourne, you can't just take a clients undertaking that they will 'sell' their property upon retirement if they can't afford the repayments. You've basically put them into hardship anyway!" he said.
However, this was enough to make some brokers' blood boil - as Judy West exclaimed.
"We certainly live in 'Nannysville' in Australia where we treat anyone over the age of 55 (the new 75) as incompetents," she said.
BJ detailed his understanding, which included the longevity risk of a client, and the lack of desire on the part of the bank to be left holding a physical property asset.

Environmental Protection Agency:
Major Management Challenges
GAO-09-434: Published: Mar 4, 2009. Publicly Released: Mar 4, 2009.
Additional Materials:

(202) 512-6225
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
The Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) overarching mission is to protect human health and the environment by implementing and enforcing environmental laws intended to improve the quality of the nation's air and water and to protect its land. EPA's policies and programs affect virtually all segments of the economy, society, and government. As such, it operates in a highly complex and controversial regulatory arena. In recent years, GAO has identified several key challenges EPA faces and corrective actions that would enable the agency to more effectively accomplish its mission. GAO was asked to identify challenges at EPA that hinder its ability to implement its programs effectively, based on prior GAO work. These challenges include (1) improving agencywide management, (2) transforming EPA's processes for assessing and controlling toxic chemicals, (3) improving implementation of the Clean Air Act, (4) reducing pollution in the nation's waters, (5) speeding the pace of cleanup at Superfund and other hazardous waste sites, and (6) addressing emerging climate change issues.
EPA faces the following challenges that hinder its ability to implement its programs effectively: (1) improving agencywide management, (2) transforming EPA's processes for assessing and controlling toxic chemicals, (3) improving implementation of the Clean Air Act, (4) reducing pollution in the nation's waters, (5) speeding the pace of cleanup at Superfund and other hazardous waste sites, and (6) addressing emerging climate change issues. EPA has launched various initiatives to address crosscutting general management issues, including environmental enforcement and compliance, human capital management, and the development and use of environmental information. However, these initiatives have generally fallen considerably short of their intended results. EPA has failed to develop sufficient chemical assessment information to limit public exposure to many chemicals that may pose substantial health risks. In January 2009, GAO added a new issue--the need to transform EPA's process for assessing and controlling toxic chemicals--to its list of high-risk areas warranting increased attention by Congress and the executive branch. EPA faces many important challenges related to implementation of the Clean Air Act, including those highlighted by GAO regarding its coordination with other federal agencies, analyses of health impacts from air pollution, and delays in regulating mercury and other air toxics. EPA also faces challenges relating to numerous regulatory proposals that have been overturned or remanded by the courts. EPA partners with federal, state, and local agencies and others to reduce pollution in the nation's waters. Among the most daunting water pollution control problems, the nation's water utilities face billions of dollars in upgrades to aging and deteriorating infrastructures that left unaddressed can affect the quality of our water. EPA will receive $6 billion in additional water infrastructure funding from the recently passed stimulus bill. Congress passed the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, better known as Superfund, in 1980, giving the federal government the authority to ensure the cleanup of hazardous waste sites both on private and public lands. Nonetheless, several key management problems have not been resolved since that time. For example, citing competing priorities and lack of funds, EPA has not implemented a 1980 statutory mandate under Superfund to require businesses handling hazardous substances to provide financial assurances to pay for potential environmental cleanups. In GAO's view, the federal government's approach to climate change has been ad hoc and is not well coordinated across government agencies. For example, the federal government lacks a comprehensive approach for targeting federal research dollars toward the development and deployment of low-carbon technologies.

Fill your glass about 3/4 of the way with water.
How to Make a Rainbow Science Experiment: Refraction
Children of all ages will be amazed and delighted by the results of this simple experiment to make your own rainbow. In addition, you will be teaching a memorable lesson on refraction, how light slows down and seems to bend when it hits water.
After it rains, when the light hits the tiny water droplets in the air, it slows down and bends. There is the arch of the rainbow. White light (sunlight) is made up of the 7 colors of the rainbow. When refraction occurs through air moisture it causes those colors to separate so that you can see them individually.
Things You'll Need
- A clear, large drinking glass
- Small mirror that will fit into glass
- Water
- A flashlight
- A room with white/light colored walls
Put the mirror in the glass while carefully trying to position it so it stays angled at the bottom, facing slightly upwards.
darken the room a bit and shine the flashlight on the mirror that is submerged in the glass.
Look around the room for your rainbow. Feel free to move the light which will cause the rainbow to shift. Allow the children to discuss their observations. Ask them to name the 7 colors of the rainbow (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet).
- 1
Tips & Warnings
- When doing this experiment with children, allow them to do as many steps as possible on their own. This builds their self esteem, independence and love of learning.

Is There Class Conflict Among Elves in the Lord of the Rings Books?
Answer by Thomas Snerdley:
Yes, Galadriel and Elrond Peredhil overthrew the elven monarchy.
The ultimate "class conflict," of course, was Fëanor's rebellion against the lordship of the Valar. But his rash oath was swiftly followed by "class conflict" by the people of the host of Fingolfin, who refused to accept Fëanor's kingship: "When Fëanor began the marshalling of the Noldor for their setting-out, then at once dissension arose. For though he had brought the assembly in a mind to depart, by no means all were of a mind to take Fëanor as King. Greater love was given to Fingolfin and his sons ... "

Was Elvis Presley a Better Musician Than the Beatles?
Answer by David Stewart:
Better in what way?
Vocally: Elvis had a great voice, and few could touch him. His rock 'n' roll numbers were electrifying, and his slower ballads were beautiful. His ability to command a song was just fantastic. The Beatles all had good voices (except Ringo Starr, obviously), but they couldn't touch Elvis for vocal ability.
Why Is Poetry So Difficult to Understand?
Answer by Stephanie Vardavas, student of human frailty:
The main obstacle to understanding poetry, whether you are talking about Keats or Shelley or Whitman or even Leonard Cohen, is our ingrained tendency to be very literal in communication. We often speak and write in extremely literal terms, because we want to make sure we are understood. So when communication is incoming, we look at it the same way and try to extract its literal meaning.

Answer by Robert Frost, engineer/instructor at NASA, hardcore Star Trek fan since I was 2:
Humanism. Gene Roddenberry, the creator of the original series, was an ardent humanist and imbued the show with those ideas, sometimes to the show's success, sometimes to its detriment. Humanism is defined as "an outlook or system of thought attaching prime importance to human rather than divine or supernatural matters. Humanist beliefs stress the potential value and goodness of human beings, emphasize common human needs, and seek solely rational ways of solving human problems."
If Magneto and Graviton Would Battle, Who Would Win?
Answer by Frank Heile, Ph.D. in physics from Stanford University:
I have to put a vote in for Graviton. Assuming the laws of physics still apply to the world of Magneto and Graviton, then Magneto has to still respect Maxwell's equations, and Graviton has to respect the equations of general relativity.

Gooey Butter Lemon Cookies
I have decided that vacationing while pregnant is one of the best ideas of all time.
On the surface, it doesn't sound so great. It's hot out, you can't have the giant umbrella-ey drinks that make 24/7 family time more bearable, AND you constantly have to find bathrooms so you can pee ALL THE LIVELONG DAY.
I'm not even going to mention my pasty white self lounging in a maternity one-piece while I watch skinny, tan teenagers run around in their tiny bikinis.
**cough cough face punch cough**
But it turns out, if you dig a liiiiiiitttttle deeper…there is a hidden gem buried deep beneath the pregnant vacationing experience.
You find a way to use it to your advantage.
The kids want to spend the day at that waterpark you've been driving by for the past few days?
"Gee, guys…I'd love to take you, but pregnant women can't go down big slides and it's SO hot outside…it's not good for the baby. You should probably ask dad if he can manage it"
Guess who just bought themselves a free afternoon?
Obviously, I'd never encourage you to lie, but if the only thing that tiny fetus wants is for you to lay in bed and eat donuts while your husband takes the kid to ride Go Karts and play arcade games, you probably should listen to your body.
That's all I'm saying.
And seriously, I'm pretty wise. Like a female Mr. Miyagi, only I'm white and don't know anything about karate or tiny trees.
Anyways. Let's talk about cookies now.
Awhile back, I got a sweet email from a reader who shared one of her favorite cookie recipes with me — Gooey Butter Cookies. I have had Gooey Butter CAKES, but I LOVED the idea of Gooey Butter Cookies, and the recipe is amazingly simple.
You can use any flavor cake mix (she favors orange) but I had lemon cake mix on hand so that is what I went with.
Needless to say, these are crazy good, and I'm excited about all the flavor possibilities!![/donotprint]
Gooey Butter Lemon Cookies
- Box Duncan Hines Lemon Cake Mix
- 8 oz block of cream cheese, softened
- 1 stick of butter, softened
- 1 egg
- About 1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips
1. Preheat oven to 350. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. In the bowl of a mixer, beat butter and cream cheese until smooth. Add cake mix and egg and beat on medium until combined. Stir in white chocolate chips.
3. Using a small cookie scoop, scoop onto lined baking sheets, a couple of inches apart. Bake 8-10 minutes or until edges just start to turn golden.
4. Let cool before removing to cooling racks. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and store in refrigerator or freezer for a cool treat.
[donotprint]Thank you so much to Danielle for sharing this recipe. These cookies are the best I've had in awhile and I got tons of compliments on them!!
Enjoy and have a happy Tuesday!![/donotprint]

Google Ink Sends Ask.com New Google Pen
First Ask.com had some fun with Google earlier this month,
joking about how
their Google pen "flatlined" and ran out of ink during a crucial meeting. Now
Google gets in on the joke in good spirit, sending Ask a new pen along with a
letter discussing the Google Pen's "redundant" architecture.
Ask.com's Google
Pen Service Restored from the Ask.com Blog share a picture of the pen and
the letter, which offers Google's apology for the pen failure. The letter reads:
We noted your suboptimal experience with our Google pen and are thus
pleased to send you — at no charge — a replacement set.
Fortunately, our pen architecture is based upon Redundant Arrays of
Inexpensive Drafting Stuff. If any individual component fails, a quick
recovery is ensured.
We wish you a long and happy writing experience.
The letter is almost certainly from Adam Lasnik of Google, the same person
who sent Al Scillitani
pain relief for his AdWords headaches. The title of the letter says, "search
evangelist," which Adam uses. Danny also says the signature in the Ask letter,
despite being smudged out, still looks pretty similar to the signature in the
pain relief letter.
Search engines have a tendency to play games with each other. Yahoo, in the
past, mocked the
Google Dance for running out of beer at the 2004 party.

"This is 2nd book I couldn't finish"
This is slow slow slow the mind wanders and goes on pointlessly. I did like the narrator though. For such high reviews I guess you would have to finish the the book after 6 hours I gave up and moved on. First book I couldn't finish was Moby Dick. I did like the narrator though.
"Truly Enjoyed"
I enjoyed the book and great narrator. I liked the characters and the book is in my top 20.

Press release from Marketwire
Continental Gold Drills 18.1 m @ 24.89 g/t Gold and 63 g/t Silver at Veta Sur and Announces New Sediment-Hosted Gold-Silver-Zinc-Lead Discovery at the Buritica Project, Colombia
Tuesday, July 12, 2011
Continental Gold Drills 18.1 m @ 24.89 g/t Gold and 63 g/t Silver at Veta Sur and Announces New Sediment-Hosted Gold-Silver-Zinc-Lead Discovery at the Buritica Project, Colombia06:30 EDT Tuesday, July 12, 2011TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - July 12, 2011) -Continental Gold Limited ("Continental" or the "Company") (TSX:CNL) is pleased to announce results for nineteen diamond drill-holes from the Company's ongoing program at its Buriticá Project in Antioquia, Colombia. Over 69,000 metres of diamond drilling have been completed on the property to date and nine drills are currently on schedule to complete approximately 100,000 metres of surface and underground drilling by the end of 2011. Highlights Drilling on Veta Sur system focused on easterly and westerly parts of the system with two holes in the central zone. Significant new intercepts include:18.1 m @ 24.89 g/t Au and 63 g/t Ag including 5.8 m @ 55.77 g/t Au and 123 g/t Ag in BUSY-163, interpreted as part of a plunging high grade gold shootDrilling around the margins of Veta Sur has added to the Buriticá silver story: BUSY-166 intersected 11.9 m @ 3.19 g/t Au and 216 g/t Ag with 8.6% zinc and 3.3% lead in a sulphide matrix breccia hosted by silicified basement sediments in southwest Veta Sur, a newly recognized style of mineralization at Buriticá BUSY-174 intersected 0.55 m @ 2.05 g/t Au, 2,906 g/t Ag with 2.6% zinc and 0.16% lead on the margin of silicified sediments to the northeast of Veta Sur These intercepts demonstrate the potential of the 1,200m x 1,000m polymetallic soil anomaly to the south and east of Veta Sur, much of which is underlain by basement sediments and is yet to be drilledFive holes were drilled in the western part of the Yaragua system and were successful in intersecting both the main northern and southern vein systems above and below the Diatreme Fault. A newly recognized WNW-trending vein set yielded two high grade intercepts including 1.52 m @ 40.0 g/t Au and 330.0 g/t AgDrilling in the eastern part of Yaragua and Yaragua South (although primarily for geotechnical purposes) has resulted in the recognition of a new vein south of the Murcielagos vein family, which has also been extended to substantial depths below historical developmentsA new longitudinal section that incorporates all drilling and underground channel sampling shows that +10 g/t Au intercepts occur along 1,000 metres of combined Yaragua-Veta Sur strike and are open below the 600 vertical metres drill tested to date. The shell defined by those dimensions is 70-200 metres wide and contains 4-12 individual high-grade veins Details Continental's 100%-owned, 22,457-hectare project, Buriticá, contains several known areas of high-grade vein mineralization. The two most extensively explored of these areas (the Yaragua system and the Veta Sur system, Figure 1) are central to this land package. The Yaragua System has been drill-outlined along 550 metres of strike and 600 vertical metres and partially sampled in underground developments. The Veta Sur system has been drill - intersected along 500 metres of strike and 470 vertical metres. Both systems are characterized by multiple veins and both remain open at depth at high grades.Veta Sur AreaTable 1 presents a summary of results for the eight holes recently drilled in the Veta Sur system.Table 1 – Veta Sur System Drill ResultsHole IDFromToIntervalGoldSilverZincElevation(m)(m)(m)(g/t)(g/t)(ppm)BUSY-111213.30215.502.205.946.011401612235.35236.601.255.3218.214411594250.45253.703.254.779.75211580258.70261.402.7011.0185.76691573274.752184.108.40.20618.01421560BUSY-157101.45102.000.550.81218.099731782182.00183.251.2512.425.73791706218.80220.001.205.23114.043491672BUSY-163105.50106.000.5017.03158.09311627325.05343.1518.1024.8963.341011417including333.00338.805.8055.77123.57771including337.50338.801.30135.48163.720083345.00347.002.0016.4913.235571395376.50380.303.8014.5813.03661365432.00432.450.4521.3868.02591315BUSY-166199.60211.5011.903.19216.1866341693including206.00208.602.606.72424.4214000BUSY-171142.80144.501.700.37201.768271760BUSY-17453.1054.601.500.28271.020951720136.00137.501.500.62218.036451660193.45194.000.552.052906.0259001619219.00219.50.5011.569.915811600BUSY-175156.50158.001.508.7720.014331584200.30201.801.5056.1019.02691545262.25262.60.3531.50115.07131488BUSY-177172.30175.703.253.3359.626141621199.50201.001.5010.341.183621596261.00261.500.500.521040.010551541280.20284.904.704.6114.83151521362.70363.851.1522.1870.789781447440.70441.701.004.2211.011591378(a)True widths not known but estimated at 50% or higher of the quoted intercept(b)Grades are uncut and an external grade cutoff of 1.0 g/t Au used to determine intersection thickness and grade(c)BUSY- sequence drilled from the surface, BUUY- sequence from underground(d)Holes BUSY-164, BUSY-165 and BUSY-167 awaiting final assaysHoles BUSY-111 and BUSY-163 (Figure 1 and Figure 2) were drilled in the central part of the vein corridor. BUSY-163 cut five significant veins, with the main intercept being 18.1 m @ 24.89 g/t Au and 63 g/t Ag, including 5.8 m @ 55.77 g/t Au and 123 g/t Ag. As can be seen in the longitudinal section (Figure 2), this intersection further defines the deeper part of a high grade shoot which appears to plunge to the southwest in this part of the vein. BUSY-111 hit four veins including 2.7 m @ 11.01 g/t Au and 85 g/t Ag. This grade is similar to other intersections in this area which is (vertically) between the two known high grade shoots.Drilling around the margins of Veta Sur has continued to add to the emerging silver story in these areas:BUSY-166, in the southwest of Veta Sur (Figure 1) cut 11.9 m @ 3.19 g/t Au, 216 g/t Ag, 8.66% Zn, and 3.06% Pb in a style of mineralization previously not recognized at Buriticá. The intersection is in a massive sulfide-cemented, matrix supported breccia characterized by sphalerite and galena with lesser pyrite. The host rock is present as breccia fragments of entirely silica-replaced sedimentary rocks from the Cretaceous basement sequence, which crops out just to the south.Hole BUSY-174 was drilled 150 metres to the east of the Veta Sur trend (Figures 1 and 2) and also intersected the intrusion-basement sediment contact. The hole intersected several intervals of high Ag/Au mineralization including 0.55 m @ 2.05 g/t Au, 2,906 g/t Ag, 2.59% Zn, and 0.16% Pb. BUSY-174 also intersected a gold-rich vein, the first encountered in this area.BUSY-166 & BUSY-174 demonstrate potential for more silver-rich mineralization in or around the altered basement sediments, which underlie much of the greater than one square kilometre, Au-Ag-Zn-Pb soil anomaly south and east of Veta Sur (see Press Release dated August 9, 2010 at www.continentalgold.com). The great majority of this area is yet to be drilled.BUSY-157 and BUSY-171 intersected high Ag/Au mineralization respectively to the north and south of main Veta Sur trend (Figure 1) extending the silver rich vein sets in these areas.In northeastern Veta Sur, BUSY-177 intersected 0.52 m of 2.05 g/t Au, 1,040 g/t Ag among a group of more gold-rich veins Veta Sur. The silver-rich mineralization may correlate with veins further to the east and the intersection also shows that silver rich mineralization may occur relatively deeply in the Veta Sur system.Yaragua AreaTable 2 presents results for new holes drilled in the Yaragua area.

As is typical of holes in the Yaragua system, as many as six individual veins are present in the holes. The best intercepts include: 1.0 m @ 23.03 g/t Au and 9 g/t Ag in BUSY-159; 1.52 m @ 40.00 g/t Au and 330 g/t Ag in BUSY-169; and 1.6 m @ 16.47 g/t Au and 41 g/t Ag in BUSY-173. Although uncertain due to proximity of the Diatreme Fault system, correlations with modeled veins further east in the Yaragua system are given in Table 2. High grade intersections in BUSY-159 and BUSY-169 are correlated with the recently modeled NW Vein set which has a Centena vein-like orientation about 30 degrees north of the main Yaragua vein orientation. Such high grade vein sets are increasingly recognized in Yaragua. The high grade intercept (0.5 m @ 31.12 g/t Au and 401 g/t Ag) in BUSY-172 is correlated with the San Antonio vein in the footwall of the Diatreme Fault.BUUY-056 & BUUY-057 were also drilled into western Yaragua, targeting mineralization in the footwall of the Diatreme Fault. Both drill-holes intersected thick intervals of breccia hosted mineralization and potentially economic grades and thicknesses in the Murcielagos Family of veins, Vein B and (in BUUY 57) Vein C. Unfortunately, both holes were lost before reaching the targeted San Antonio vein set, deep in the footwall of the Diatreme Fault. Vein B has now been intersected along a minimum 300 metres of strike.BUUS-001 to BUUS-003 are the first of a program of short diamond holes (utilizing a small underground rig) to augment the underground channel sampling of Yaragua vein sets (CNL Press Release, March 3, 2011). Whereas the channel sampling demonstrated the very high grades of the Yaragua vein sets sampled, mineralization was commonly observed in the tunnel walls and thus the thickness of the vein sets was underestimated in some segments. BUUS-001 encountered 4.60 m (true width) @ 12.26 g/t Au in the hanging wall (HW) vein to the south of the San Antonio. BUUS-002 added a 5.60 m (true width) @ 7.28 g/t Au and 21 g/t Ag on the northern side of the San Antonio vein.Yargagua SouthBUSY-173 is the first of a series of holes targeting the largely undrilled eastern Yaragua vein sets (Figure 1). It encountered a new vein, Murcielagos South (0.75 m @ 12.96 g/t Au and 89 g/t Ag) and also intersected a further six veins of potentially economic grade in the Murcielagos Family at depths substantially below historical development on this vein set (Figure 3).BUSY-151 and BUSY-170 were drilled primarily to investigate ground conditions on the path of the proposed ramp, which is planned to provide access for underground deep exploration drilling, delineation drilling and ultimately development of the Buriticá mine. Lithologies drilled and the limited degree of alteration seen in the holes is consistent with generally good ground conditions. Both drill holes had intercepts that correlate with the newly defined Murcielagos South vein (see above), indicating that this vein has a strike length of more than 200 metres and a substantial vertical extent. BUSY-151 was completed deep in the Murcielagos family of veins. This drill hole also encountered a previously unknown vein, South Yaragua, deep below a surface geochemical anomaly.Yaragua-Veta Sur Longitudinal SectionFigure 3 is a longitudinal section looking north through all drilling and underground sampling done to date on the Yaragua and Veta Sur vein systems. This section appears to foreshorten the Veta Sur system and is a projection of up to 12 vein sets onto the section plane. However, it usefully illustrates the lateral and vertical extents of Buriticá mineralization explored to date. About 1,000 strike metres have been drill tested in the combined Yaragua and Veta Sur systems to a maximum depth of over 600 metres. High-grade gold (including many intercepts of over 100 g/t) has been encountered over these full horizontal and vertical extents and is open downward in all areas.A significant characteristic of this type of carbonate base metal gold system world-wide is a very large vertical extent of economic gold mineralization (ex, Porgera, Kelian). Construction of a 1,100-metre tunnel programmed to begin later in 2011 will eventually provide deep access for underground drilling from about the 1,200-metre level. In the shorter term, Continental is mobilizing a larger surface drill capable of testing the system to at least the 900-metre level.Technical InformationThe results of the Company's drilling program have been reviewed, verified and compiled by Vice President Exploration, Stuart Moller, P.Geol., a qualified person for the purpose of Canadian National Instrument 43-101. Mr. Moller has over 30 years of mineral exploration experience and is a Licensed Professional Geologist in the Province of British Colombia and a Fellow of the Society of Exploration Geologists.The company utilizes an industry-standard QA/QC program. HQ and NQ diamond drill-core is sawn in half with one-half shipped to a sample preparation lab in Medellín run by SGS Colombia. 100% of BQ diametre drill samples are shipped. Samples are then shipped for analysis to SGS certified assay laboratory in Lima, Peru. The remainder of the core is stored in a secured storage facility for future assay verification. Blanks, duplicates and certified reference standards are inserted into the sample stream to monitor laboratory performance and a portion of the samples are periodically check assayed at ACME laboratories in Vancouver and/or Inspectorate Labs in Reno.About Continental Gold LimitedContinental Gold Limited is an advanced-stage exploration company with nine gold projects covering more than 197,000 hectares in Colombia. Spearheaded by a management team with over 40 years of exploration and mining experience in South America, the Company has begun an aggressive exploration program on its extensive portfolio of properties with a focus on its flagship high-grade gold project, Buriticá, and the highly prospective Berlin gold project.

Keep at top - How to post pictures here!
This thread will describe how to post pictures from a photohosting site, from a PDF file, or from some other location on the web.
First, though, where are your pictures? If they are on your computer only, you will need to upload them to somewhere on the web for the rest of us to see them. I upload pictures to PhotoBucket, but there are other photo-hosting sites available. For example: Picasa, Filckr, Webshots, Snapfish.
Open an account w/PhotoBucket or other photo hosting site.
Take a picture using a digital camera (or film camera, but get your pictures on a disk when they're developed & download them to your computer)
Resize your pictures so they're not too big, generally no more than 400x300 (or 300x400)
Resize keeping the same proportions so they don't get distorted...i.e., don't specify a specific size, use %-ages or similar
[You can also often resize pictures at your photohosting site, but it's faster to do it on your computer]
Upload your pictures to your photo account
Find the label that contains the HTML Code link to the picture and copy it
Paste it into the thread's "Message" box ()
Click the "Preview" button.
You will now see the picture.
this was sinking, so I am bringing it back up to the top.
The above method does not work with every single photo site. Some you have to get an http link, and then add this:
NOTE there is no space between the I had to type it that way so it would show up. THERE IS A SPACE between the img and the src.
You have to add the after the file extension type, which is jpg
Using this method you can post a photo of anything you find on the internet. Right click on any photo on any site and choose Properties. A window will pop up giving you the http location of the photo. Using the method that photo will appear in your post.
I had trouble resizing photos on my computer. I would resize in photo bucket but sometimes it would not take and I spent too much time checking my preview message to make sure the size was not too large. Newbie mistake.
Then I noticed you can go into account settings, then click on the album settings tab. There is an upload option where you can choose what size the pictures will be. Problem solved.
I like using TinyPic.com for posting my pictures here. Set the picture size for message board, then copy and paste the HTML for Websites code into your post. Don't use the code for forums and message boards - it doesn't work for this forum. You can use it with or without an account.
Actually, my smugmug account does not post photos directly that way, which is why I posted the alternate instructions.
As an aside, does anyone know why photobucket photos are so frequently pulled from posts? I can understand if someone is linking to copyrighted photos, but occasionally the posters' own pictures are pulled. .
Kswl, I think the posted pictures get pulled because when the poster changes their photo location in their photobucket account, the link to the posting is lost. It has happened to me for that reason. People sometimes try to reorganize their account albums and then the links to the post are broken. So, after my error, my recommendation is to organize your albums according to projects, or what ever, before you start posting to this site. Then you wont be fiddling around with the location and thus loosing the links. For example I even have an album just for images that are holding other peoples images that didn't know how to post and I did it for them. I try to have all my settings set as private so that other images can't be viewed, only the ones posted. I notice some people even put a watermark on their own images, I think that is a good idea. I haven't done that yet but I plan to one of these days:)
I think that you do need to have an account to post multiple pics at one time to Tinypic. I like having an account, because I can then post the same pic again, or just look for it for reference. I don't put anything on there that I don't mind if all the world sees.
Skimmed & didn't see it mentioned. There is also the Test Forum. Practice to your hearts content, that's what it's for. :)
If you delete photos from your account, they will no longer show up in a post also.
I find that the preset large setting is good for resizing photos. I wouldn't go smaller than medium because it's makes the picture harder for some to see. Also wouldn't go any bigger than the large.
Just another note, sometimes when previewing, after you resize and are ready to post, the photos still look HUGE in the preview but appear the correct size when viewed in the thread later. I don't know why this is but as long as you resize them, it should be ok. However, when previewing, if you copy the HTML code as shown above, that 'will' show up if you did it right.
I wanted to respond to your other 'how to post a pic' thread w/o posting on it. Even threads that have no responses will begin to sink to the bottom so you eventually have to respond to it to bump it up.
Maybe you can check w/ the moderator to see if there is a way to permanently keep a 'How to post pics' thread at the top.
A bump for this topic and a question:
Does anyone use snapfish for sharing pictures on this forum? If so, can you tell me how to do it please?
I have a photobucket account that I usually use but for some reason I cannot get logged in. Rather than open yet another account on another website I thought I would see if my existing snapfish account would work. I have the pictures loaded to snapfish already but I cannot get them to appear in my post on GW. There is a section to "share with a link" and this appears there:
Perhaps I just need help with the HTML code to use this link in my post.
They've made it so easy now, just save your photo to your desktop then browse to pick it up there, if it needs editing, resizing etc. do all of that before you save it to your desktop. then if you choose to keep it make a new folder to drop it ibnto on your desktop.
OK -- so I can't use my iPhoto? I need to transfer photos to another site first (photo bucket, etc)
Sometimes my iPhoto works - but I can only post one photo at a time. The only photos I seem to able to post are those taken from my iPhone and then transferred to my iPhoto. Those uploaded from my camera are too large, and I don't know how to resize them.
Why can't things be easy?

Recent Berkshires Reviews
This is the one!
I'm sorry for not responding sooner. Your home was the best vacation rental in which I have stayed today and I rent frequently in the Berkshires. I am going to want to stay there again for a week. The home was exactly what my wife and I needed for our family. Your instructions on what to do in the area really helped us out, and John was really wonderful as well. The grounds were beautiful. What can I say, I have finally found the right place.
peaceful retreat!
We had three families in our group and had plenty of room to sleep, play, eat and for kids to play (in and out--our weather was gorgeous!). The house is very private; a beautiful property. Heather made a great suggestion which was to bring everything you need as far as food goes because the closest grocery is not that close! ;-) We found beautiful hiking trails at the Hand Conservation and all around had a great time in a perfectly cozy and well equipped place to unwind! WiFi was a great bonus! Accessible for our three parties traveling from downstate, upstate and MA. We would definitely return!
Great stay
Very comfortable house, we used the grill and kitchen to cook a lot and sat outside on the deck, walked through the woods, and enjoyed the peaceful area. Living room was a good size for the five of us to relax and play card games, etc. The house is in close driving distance to several state parks with hikes that are good both for stronger and weaker hikers. The property owner was friendly and checked in with us to make sure all was well. He was discreet but let us know that we could contact him with any concerns. If you stay here, check out the wonderful used book store just down the road!

It's not just the heat, it's the apprehension
Is, as T.S. Eliot wrote, April the cruelest month. News Editor Jonathan Scott suggests it might actually be August because of all involved with starting school again. He takes a look at the concerns that parents have to help their children from pre-K through seniors in high school deal with this month every year. (August 4, 2011, Page 4)
School days can combine fun, education
With open houses this week and classes beginning Thursday for most local students, Don Whitten takes a look at the "fun" parts of school – recess, lunch and activity period – and how they play a key role in the education process. (August 3, 2011, Page 4)
All running for office deserve our thanks
Perhaps you have your Election Day schedule all planned out. Before, or after, voting, there's one more thing that Editor Don Whitten says you should think about doing – thank all of the candidates for running and making the election process work. (August 1, 2011, Page 4A)
Whose personhood?
Staff Writer Melanie Addington takes a closer look at the personhood initiative, Amendment 26, that is expected to be on the ballot in Mississippi in November. She cites statistics about serious issues in our state and asks if those issues need to be dealt with more than personhood. (July 29, 2011, Page 4A)
Lots of 'summer reading' going on these days
Notice more folks around the book stores and library? How about fewer youngsters outside? Many of them, Editor Don Whitten suspects, are working on summer reading lists and projects as the days count down until the beginning of school. (July 27, 2011, Page 4A)
Having to pick a line upsets some of us
The closer it gets to voting on Aug. 2, the madder some folks get about the limitations of Mississippi's primary voting rules. Editor Don Whitten is among those voters, and he points out that he'd like to vote for people on both the Democratic and Republican tickets but is going to have to decide which one to pick. (July 25, 2011, Page 4)
Rounding up the 'important' school supplies
Have you filled the school supply list for your student? After seeing lists in several places, Editor Don Whitten recalled the way lists were made during his days as a student. The most important items back then, he writes, were satchels, notebooks and, most of all, Crayola crayons. (July 22, 2011, Page 4A)
Deciding who or what gets into the Crime Report
Oxford Eagle Staff Writer Alyssa Schnugg, who covers courts and crime, receives lots of emails and calls asking why – or why not – something or someone made it into the daily crime report.

Christopher Heine | May 11, 2011 | Comments
Consumers rarely go to brand pages on Facebook and Twitter while deciding what to buy.
Click-stream data from customers of Dell and two other major brands show that while social media affected their purchase decisions, the companies' Facebook Pages and Twitter accounts factored little. Only 1 percent of consumers visited those social media presences as they zeroed in on buying a product, according to the brands' social media marketing agency M80.
"Consumers are not going to Facebook.com/superglue or whatever," said Jeff Semones, president of the Los Angeles-based company, while speaking at the Social Upfront conference in New York yesterday. "They are getting that information from their friends and other consumers in the marketplace…That's why brands need to be actively engaging with their audiences, so brand messages show up in the consumers' feeds."
Semones didn't divulge brand names during his presentation, but later told ClickZ News that Dell was one of the clients involved in the research. He said a major CPG brand and telecom made up the other two companies participating in the study, which concluded in February.
And while his comments focused on potential social media marketing benefits, they also highlighted the power of search. Semones said the click-stream study - spearheaded by fellow WPP subsidiary GroupM Search - showed that 51 percent of purchasers leaned on sites like Google, Bing, and Yahoo to perform product research. Forty-eight percent combined social media and search sites before deciding on what to buy.
During a joint appearance, Semones and Kontera SVP of Sales Chris Karl also discussed consumer survey data about the impact of social media on purchasing habits. Two intriguing data-points: 74 percent of respondents said they preferred to learn about brands on Facebook, while 53 percent stated that social media changed their opinion about a product/brand.

Ryobi 790R string trimmer
Hard to start and when it does, I can't get it to stay running. New primer plug and fuel lines installed. Filter clean and spark plug fairly new. I hate to chuck it, but has anyone got suggestions.
I know I can buy a 4 cycle for under $100, but I'd like to see if I can fix this one.
It's at least 10 yrs. old, but really wasn't used or abused during that time.
After 10 years it's probably time for a carb overhaul as the rubber parts will get stiff with age. You could try cleaning the interior of the carb and reassembling it with an investment of $3 for a can of spay cleaner and some time. The way I see it you have to take the thing half way apart to get the model # of the carb to order a rebuild kit so you might as well give it the cheap try and see approach while you're there. Once you price a carb kit you can rethink the situation.
I am suprised it lasted that long without rebuilding the carb. The rubber parts weed cutter is talking about are the pump diaphram, and the meteting diaphram. Wabro or Zama carb. kits are usually less than $10 bucks with the $3 can of carb. cleaner (which you should have already if you own a LT or Lawn mower) takes you total investment to about 15 bucks plus tax plus the labor and learning experience of trying to figure out how carb. work (that alone is worth $15 bucks if you can fix it). shops charge from 35 to 60 bucks for a carb rebuild. That's why most elect to trash them so I can fix them and get another 10 years of use out of them. Gas blowers are the only thing I can't get any more life out of. they are actually worn out between the piston and cylinder walls. Takes alot of power which wears parts to move air!!!!!!!!!!....atleast that's my theory????
i posted a great zama carb. breakdown, anyway if you try to rebuild it you will have to get the numbers stamps on the side of the carb. Wabro will be WTXXX, Zama will be CUXXX. the XXXs are the model numbers that will follow the letters on the carb. The zama download actually tells you where to find the model numbers. http://www.zamacarb.com/tips.html
welcome steve, I would first check the fuel filter connected to the hose in the bottom of the fuel tank. I would also inspect the fuel inlet hose (Bottom one) and the fuel return hose (top one) for any cracks or colasping providing you don't have any loose screws that mount the carb. diaphram end caps, or crank cover.
Fuel hose and filter will cost you around 6 bucks if they are bad. see if that helps, Fresh gas usually don clean all the crud in the bottom of the tank I would also remove and clean out the gas tank.
If that don't work the next problem usually the diaphrams get stiff and quite pulsing thus the fuel won't flow. First I would try just to clean the carb. by taking the end plate off and spraying carb. cleaner down all the little passages.
If that don't work you will most likely have to spring aobut 8 bucks for carb. kit, if you go that route make sure you get the numbers off the carb.
I guess you probably have a zama carb. Try this web site for alittle help on putting the carb. kit in or just wanting to know how the carb works there is also a troubleshooting logic in the download also. http://www.zamacarb.com/tips.html
own a 790R with all the attachment.
Trimmer, bush wacker, leaf blower and chain saw.
It blew a piston ring so I I thought I would rebuild it.
New piston, rings, cylinder head and rebuilt crab.
Parts $130.00 Labor 3/4 day
I bought it from a friend for $65.00.
For some reason AFTER i was done with the rebuild I checked to see how much a new one would cost.
Guess what!!!!
$99.00 from HOme Depot
My Ryobi 790r ran well for 12 years. Last time out it was running rougn and then quit. I can't even pull the cord to restart so I figure it is dead. Any thoughts?
Also, I used the proper gas/oil mixture but this time the gas had fuel stabilizer in it. Could that have contributed to the problem?
Can anybody tell me the correct ratio of gas to oil? Should I discard mixture left over from last year? Unlike some of your contributors, about the only trouble I have had is with the bump advance and getting into the trimmer attachment to restring. All the other attachments have been great. Thanks for your help.
If you are using a quality (premium) grade 2-stroke oil then 40-1 ratio is more than sufficient , i use 50-1 routinely with Amsoil Sabre . Never store fuel for more than 60 days and expect good things. I believe the forum members recommend that you just put the left over fuel in your auto . Your auto could probably use a little xtra top end oil anyways . If your interested Walmart has a great product Star*tron which is great for enabling you to store fuel for extended periods . Stabil is the least I would use for storing fuel for perhaps 6mths , however the Startron Product is advertised for a yr lol not that I would push the envelope that far ! Check it out on the web .
