Are you a Canon or Nikon photographer looking for a versatile prime standard lens? The Tokina's AT-X M35 PRO DX AF 35mm f/2.8 Macro might be the lens for you. It gives users myriad shooting options: you can take portraits, photograph detail oriented macro pictures, or snap landscape images. DxOMark takes a look at how the lens performs on select Canon and Nikon cameras, and how it stacks up against rivals.
To provide photographers with a broader perspective about mobiles, lenses and cameras, here are links to articles, reviews, and analyses of photographic equipment produced by DxOMark, renown websites, magazines or blogs.
The Tokina AT-X M35 PRO DX AF 35mm f/2.8 Macro for Canon and Nikon is the Jack of all trades: the lens allows photographers to snap pictures with macro like details by providing life-sized (1:1) reproduction; its 35mm prime standard lens also grants shooters the flexibility of photographing just 14 centimeters, or less than a hands length away from an object; and when mounted on a digital SLR camera, the Tokina 35mm f/2.8 Macro behaves more like a 52mm lens, giving photographers another option for shooting portraits.

Back to budgets, Ryan returns to comfortable topic
Tuesday - 12/4/2012, 1:33pm EST
By PHILIP ELLIOTT
Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) - Paul Ryan is getting his groove back.
A month after the GOP's presidential ticket lost an election, the party's vice presidential nominee finds himself comfortably back in his political wheelhouse on Capitol Hill and in the thick of a debate over how to avert automatic tax increases and spending cuts that many economists fear could cripple the economy if Congress doesn't head them off by Jan. 1.
The Wisconsin congressman isn't technically a member of the House Republican leadership. But he's viewed by GOP colleagues as an expert on economic and tax policy and entitlement programs. He's a good gauge of how far the party's most conservative lawmakers will bend, if at all, as House Speaker John Boehner negotiates with the White House and Democratic-controlled Senate over the "fiscal cliff."
That explains why Ryan has become a new addition to what previously was a four-person, 30-minute morning meeting led each day by Boehner and Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va.
The GOP leaders want his views in planning strategy for dodging a budget meltdown and coming out on top politically. As an informal liaison to rank-and-file members, he's in a position to test what policy changes these members may be willing to support and sell them on what they should accept or reject. Ryan's signature Monday on Boehner's initial offer to Obama _ raising the eligibility age for Medicare, lowering cost-of-living hikes for Social Security benefits and bringing in $800 billion in higher tax revenue _ could help satisfy some of the party's most conservative constituencies that otherwise might balk at any notion of tax increases.
"Congressman Ryan finds himself at a near-perfect meeting of preparation and opportunity," said Joe Brettell, a Republican strategist and former Capitol Hill aide. "His credibility with both Republican leadership and the conservative establishment will make his support a crucial element to any fiscal cliff agreement."
According to House GOP officials, whatever top Republicans need from Ryan _ from policy advice to political cover _ they're getting it.
Ryan plays down his role, saying people should focus on Boehner and President Barack Obama.
"Speaker Boehner has outlined a bipartisan way forward to avoid the fiscal cliff and get our economy growing: commonsense entitlement reform coupled with pro-growth tax reform," he said last week. "We can find common ground on responsible spending restraint and greater revenue, but we have yet to see real, specific spending cuts from President Obama."
Nevertheless, Ryan's deep involvement in the debate suggests his reputation within the GOP as a conservative leader against tax increases and advocate for reining in spending, particularly on programs like Social Security and Medicare, hasn't been hurt by his failed stint as Mitt Romney's running mate.
To a certain extent, the fiscal policy negotiations playing out on Capitol Hill give him an opportunity to reshape his profile on his own terms for a potential 2016 run at the presidency after a 2012 campaign in which allies say he often was muzzled and had to defer to Romney.
"He knows this stuff. He's been battle tested," said Rep. Cory Gardner of Colorado, a Ryan friend who often joined him during the campaign. "It gives the members more confidence in what they're doing, knowing that we've got someone on our side who is an incredible player, somebody who knows how to execute and knows he can win on a message that is right."
Romney chose Ryan, a former Hill staffer and self-professed budget geek, as his running mate largely because of his fiscal policy credentials, doubling down on the notion that voters would above all else cast their ballots on who could spark the nation's then-sputtering economy. Ryan was front-and-center those first weeks, blitzing local television stations in swing states with more than 100 interviews.
But Romney soon found himself getting hammered over Ryan's earlier budget proposals for deep spending cuts to programs for seniors and the poor. Democratic critics ran ads assailing the Ryan budget, and Republican candidates across the country were put on the defensive over it.
Ryan eventually faded back into the traditional role of a vice presidential candidate, assailing the opponent and validating the top of the ticket's credentials with a carefully scripted daily speech _ and above all, not making any unnecessary waves. His last interview before Election Day was on Oct. 8.
The day after the election, he told reporters he would be returning to his home in Janesville, Wis., to spend time with his family before going back to his job in Congress, for which he won re-election on Nov. 6.
While some advisers urged him to give up his House seat and focus solely on a potential 2016 presidential bid, Ryan decided his budget experience was needed in Washington to help dodge the fiscal cliff crisis. But he also likely realized that a debate in his area of expertise could provide a huge political payoff and solid footing well ahead of the next race for the White House.

Liberal Arts
Whether you're looking to earn your bachelor's degree to advance your career or change professions, our flexible programs can help you get there. We offer top-notch academics, small classes, and one-on-one academic advisory services.
Our Bachelor of Liberal Arts Degree Completion program builds upon the students' previous college studies with a core curriculum based on the tradition of liberal arts, and provides an opportunity for students to choose two concentrations from a wide variety of disciplines.
This liberal arts program is less concentrated in a single discipline than the traditional major. The core requires the student to acquire a foundation in each of the three major liberal arts fields: humanities, social science and mathematics/science. For the major, the student elects a five-course sequence in two liberal arts areas. Review application requirements for this program.
Concentration Options
Business Administration
Communication Studies
Public and Professional Writing
Religious and Theological Studies
Business Administration
The Girard School of Business & International Commerce offers a quality undergraduate business education that builds on a liberal arts foundation in an Augustinian community of learners. We provide an integrative management education focused on close, personal interactions in an environment encouraging experiential learning activities. The learning environment is enriched by the scholarly contributions of faculty in pedagogical, discipline-based, and practice-related areas. Students who major in the Humanities, Social Sciences, or Science and Engineering have the opportunity to minor in Business Administration. The goal of the minor is to give the student a demonstrable competency in the fundamental knowledge, skills and competencies of business.

Why study philosophy? Philosophy courses strengthen students' thinking, writing, and analytic abilities, while exposing them to some of life's most persistent and important questions.

Sociology is the study of social life and all that social life entails. Sociologists study human behavior and interaction in groups, networks, and organizations, the larger social forces that shape our lives, and social change. The student of sociology seeks to cultivate a critical perspective that relies on observations and empirical evidence to demonstrate the affect society has on the ways we think, feel, and act. Our courses focus on the degree to which people's lives are influenced and affected by socio-cultural, political-economic, and historical forces. One primary goal of the program is to help students cultivate the sociological perspective as a type of critical thinking and informed analysis.

Keith Chen:
Could your language affect your ability to save money?
What can economists learn from linguists? Behavioral economist Keith Chen introduces a fascinating pattern from his research: that languages without a concept for the future — "It rain tomorrow," instead of "It will rain tomorrow" — correlate strongly with high savings rates.

Download CountersPosted by Torhal Mar 10, 2015 at 18:52 UTC
Hey there,
We're performing maintenance on some of the back-end services, which necessitated the disabling of the service that updates the download counters on all projects. The downloads are still being recorded, however, so once we re-start that particular service the numbers will reflect the correct amount.
Thanks, Torhal

Connemara and the Neighbouring Spots of Beauty and Interest
This is a lovely publication by J. Harris Stone who claims to "like exceedingly the country I write about, and also its inhabitants..... The West of Ireland, as I experienced myself at first, is rather a puzzling part of Ireland to find one's way about in, so I have introduced one or two sketch maps, which, if consulted, will, I think, make the way plain" - Some might say it can be difficult to navigate today also!

The Secret trials of Saudi: poverty and human rights kept out of sight
Dr. Hamed Qahtani was just an economics professor researching statistics on poverty in Saudi Arabia until the Kingdom's government took a dislike to his findings. Now he finds himself on trial, facing nine charges ranging from 'setting up an unlicensed organization' to 'breaking allegiance to the king.'
He could be sentenced to up to five years in jail if convicted but there will be neither journalists nor family members at the hearing. The trial, which began yesterday, was initially attended by both but midway through the judge decided he would no longer tolerate live reports of the case.
Saudi reporter Iman al Qhatani said the judge threatened members of the press with detention if they didn't leave the courtroom. So what did Dr. Hamed do to justify such harsh conditions?
Last July the professor published an article in 'Wasat' newspaper in Saudi stating that the middle class in the Kingdom had declined by 30%. The report hinted at a level of poverty that the Saudi government is keen to deny. They claimed that Dr. Hamed was hindering the development of the state by publishing economics research that did not toe the Saudi government line.
If convicted, human rights groups claim Dr. Hamed will be a political prisoner, which directly undermines the Kingdom's claims that they don't have any such people. Saudi netizens were quick to criticize, saying the court case was more 'plot' than 'trial' and accusing the government of a cover-up.
Journalists like Iman al Qhatani told the judge that she was within her rights to report the outcome of a public trial but was she? Last year the government issued a further crackdown on an already heavily censored national media.
The royal decree from King Abdullah banned anything that might "undermine national security", a vague term that allows the government to censor anything remotely critical.
Global human rights NGO, Amnesty International, has appealed to Saudi for permission to observe the trials of four activists, including Dr. Hamed that they deem 'unfair' by international standards but so far to no avail. They say judges have the right to bar whoever they like from the courtroom. This means that it's possible justice will be done but it certainly won't be seen to be done.
Do you think trials should be open to the public? Is it important? Tell us your thoughts below.
Top Headlines
it is sad to read these things about this country , human right, waste of people,s money by these saud family is another thing
The Saudi rulers are fighting a bottle the will loose at the end. The days of denying people their basic human rights and social justice are gone. Denying women their full right are gone. Freedom of expression through free media and civil society can not be repressed anymore unless the Saudi ruling men want to face the same fate their counterparts in other Arab countries are facing.
This is grossly unfair. He had told any lies. Al he had done was enhance public awareness which is correct and right

- High-precision digital capturing of 3-phase PWM signals
- Fast signal measurement and analysis
dSPACE offers you a PWM measurement solution based on the DS5202 FPGA (field programmable gate array) Base Board. It is specially designed for high-precision digital capturing of 3-phase PWM signals such as those typically used for controlling a 3-phase AC electric motor. Efficient testing of electronic control units (ECUs) for electric machines requires fast measurement and analysis of several closely associated signals. The challenge is to capture these signals with a very short sample time, e. g. < 20 µs.
Use Case
A typical use case is a hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation, where the electric motor including the electronic power stage is simulated by means of the dSPACE modular real-time hardware. Simulation models like dSPACE Automotive Simulation Models - ASM Electric Components Library are used for simulating electric components. The gate driver signals (typically PWM signals) coming from a controller are measured by the DS5202 PWM measurement solution, and calculated motor current signals are sent back to the controller by means of analog voltage signals.

At a Glance
Why Get Tested?
To find out the risk of developing heart disease
When to Get Tested?
As part of a health check with a cholesterol test or lipid profile particularly if you:
Sample Required?
A blood sample taken from a vein in the arm or from a finger-prick
The Test Sample
What is being tested?
HDL is one of the classes of lipoproteins that carry cholesterol in the blood. HDL is thought to be beneficial because it removes excess cholesterol from tissues and carries it to the liver for disposal. Hence HDL cholesterol is often called "good" cholesterol. The test for HDL measures the amount of HDL-cholesterol in blood.
How is the sample collected for testing?
The test for HDL-cholesterol uses a blood sample. Most often the blood sample is collected from a vein. Sometimes HDL-cholesterol is measured using a drop of blood collected by puncturing the skin on a finger. A finger-prick sample is typically used when HDL-cholesterol is being measured on a portable testing device. Since this test is usually performed as part of a full lipid profile, fasting for 12 hours may be required.

Invertebrate Paleontology
The Department of Geology at Kent State University offers a strong program in invertebrate paleontology at the M.S. and Ph.D. levels. Although the focus of most graduate research is on paleoecology and paleobiogeography, emphasis is placed on fundamental aspects of the science, including systematic paleontology, anatomy, evolution, and functional morphology. Associated fields of sedimentology and stratigraphy provide additional breadth to assure that the graduate is prepared to teach or conduct meaningful independent research in paleontology, paleo-environmental studies, and sedimentary geology. Instruction in, and application of, quantitative methods is integral to all programs.
Research programs in paleontology are tailored to the interests of each student. Thus, it is possible to undertake work on organisms within a broad range of phyla spanning the Phanerozoic and to utilize appropriate geological and biological approaches to solve problems. The emphasis is on training in fundamentals and completion of quality, publishable research. Current research conducted by faculty and students within the program spans a broad spectrum of topics, including evolution, systematics, and global paleobiogeography of decapod crustaceans; paleoecology of late Cenozoic lacustrine ostracodes including isotope and trace element geochemistry related to environmental and climatic change; biological oceanography including geochemistry, biostratigraphy, and faunal analysis of Foraminifera from the deep sea; biostratigraphy and paleoecology of fish deposits from the Cenozoic nonmarine sediments in the Basin and Range; and interpretation of systematic and taphonomic significance of ultrastructure in decapod cuticle. Geographic regions in which research has been conducted recently include Antarctica, New Zealand, Madagascar, Europe, South America, Japan, Mexico, and the deep sea of the North Atlantic and eastern and western Pacific Oceans as well as North America. Graduate research in these areas is regularly supported by external funding from National Science Foundation, National Geographic Society, Geological Society of America, and Sigma Xi.

Chimneys are unlike most other parts of the home, where you might hire a professional for repairs after detecting and diagnosing a problem. Hire a professional to look over the chimney, then try your own cleaning and repairs.
Chimneys are too dangerous to rely on guesswork. Improper chimney ventilation can cause carbon monoxide poisoning, and chimney fires can quickly become dangerous structural fires.

At the request of the United States Attorney's Office and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the ASPCA is on the ground assisting in a multi-state, federal dog fighting raid across the southern U.S. Hundreds of dogs have been seized in the case along with suspected dog fighting paraphernalia.
After a three-year investigation initiated by the Auburn Police, 13 search warrants were executed Friday morning, Aug. 23, throughout Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia and Texas. Ten suspects were arrested and indicted on felony dog fighting charges. Federal and local officials also seized firearms and drugs, as well as more than $500,000 in cash from dog fighting gambling activities that took place over the course of the investigation.
The dogs, ranging in age from just several days to 10-12 years, had been left to suffer in extreme heat with no visible fresh water or food. Many are emaciated with scars and wounds consistent with dog fighting, and some were tethered by chains and cables that were attached to cinder blocks and car tires.
ASPCA responders and responders from The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) helped manage the removal and transport of the dogs to temporary emergency shelters in undisclosed locations, where responders are providing veterinary care and behavior enrichment. Responders also assisted authorities with collecting forensic evidence to be submitted for prosecution.
Other animal welfare groups assisting with the operation include Florida State Animal Response Coalition and Sumter Disaster Animal Response Team (Bushnell, Fla.); University of Florida (Gainesville); Humane Society of South Mississippi (Gulfport); International Fund for Animal Welfare (Yarmouth Port, Mass.); Asheville Humane Society (Asheville, N.C.); Charleston Animal Society (Charleston, S.C.); Louisiana SPCA (New Orleans); American Humane Association (Washington, D.C.); Greater Birmingham Humane Society (Birmingham, Ala.); Atlanta Humane Society (Atlanta, Ga.); PetSmart Charities (Phoenix, Ariz.); Code 3 Associates (Longmont, Colo.); and Montgomery Humane Society (Montgomery, Ala.).
Our responders are still on the ground, and we'll provide updates as the case unfolds. Stay tuned to aspcarescue.org for more news to come. Follow the conversation on Twitter using hashtag #367rescue.
Dog fighting is a felony in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Together we can save animals from lives of abuse.
My yellow male lab has been missing for 6 weeks. How do I find out if he was one of the dogs found? We live in the Valley Alabama area, very close to Lee county.
god bless you now if they would only stsrt throwing the book at these jerks who do this and charge them with HUGE FINES AND JAIL TIME it would make a huge difference we ALL need to step up and participate even if its only trying to get better laws set via computers common people make a difference
What will happen to the dogs? Will they be adoptable?
i dont know about texas but in new york if they are not rescued in 2 weeks they get put down so i dont see how this is a good ending for the aimals
Elena, are you serious??? You think ending their life in a dog fighting ring torn to shreds or dying of thirst and starvation is a better ending for the dogs? It's ignorant statements and thinking such as this that creates what is wrong in our world.
If the dogs are not adopted, and MANY will be rescued and adopted, then they are HUMANELY treated and put down gently. HUNDREDS will receive medical treatment and live wonderful lives.
And there are MANY rescues in NY and TEXAS that give MUCH LONGER than 2 weeks.
WAKE UP PEOPLE! There is a LOT of good in this world that will come to the aide of situations such as this and IT GETS BETTER!
YOU are dreaming...these dogs won't have a chance unless one of the big organizations wants publicity.
Many of these dogs will have a chance. There are plenty of rescues willing to step up and help the dogs that are able to be rehabed. Doesn't take a big organization, just a lot of little organizations.
Your forgetting about Mike Vick's dogs. These dogs deserve the same chance and I think they will get it.
Well even if they are put down, I agree with the prior comment-- being put down at a shelter is better than dehydrating to death, fighting to the death, or living for years in misery. I do hope that many are saved, though, and it's ENTIRELY possible!

Club competitions
National team competitions
Nationality: SRBBorn : 28.04.1989Place of birth: Kragujevac
Height: 1.90mPosition: PF
Team 2012-13: UE Sopron (Hungary-A)
Career: Vojvodina Novi Sad (Serbia-1 ZLS, 2004-06), MKB Euroleasing Sopron (Hungary-A, 2007-10), Sparta&K M.R. Vidnoje (Russia-PBL, 2010-12), UE Sopron (Hungary-A, 2012-13)
Finally over the injury problems which slowed her down during recent times and restricted her role during qualification, the versatile forward is very much the leader of the national team even though she is still only 24. She brings the ability to put serious points on the scoreboard since she not only pulls moves inside and makes jump-shots, she can also step outside and hurt opponents badly from the perimeter. Her vast shooting range for her position makes her a tricky assignment to guard and it is little wonder that she finished as the second highest scorer in EuroLeague Women last season when she poured in 19.1 points-per-game for UE Sopron. She will also grab plenty of rebounds and come up with enough steals and defence to underline her importance under both baskets. She will be the heart and soul of the team and their main go-to option in the paint.

HAVELOCK — It would be fair to say that Doug Franks has influenced thousands of lives.
Franks, who runs City Upholstery, Havelock's oldest upholstery business, spent much of his life on local baseball fields where he coached generations of young players.
"I have coached the grandkids of the kids I coached," Franks said. "I have managed or coached in over 500 baseball games and I have probably been to over 1,500 baseball practices."
Two years ago, Franks stepped back from his active role in local Babe Ruth and Little League baseball, but he still gets approached all the time by former players.
"The biggest pleasure I get is being in Bojangles and having somebody come up and say 'Hey coach, do you remember me?'" he said.
It might take a minute, but Franks eventually gets around to knowing exactly who's asking.
"I've had some real difficult kids to coach and those are the ones I've had the most pleasure with," Franks said.
Franks, 71, doesn't name names.
"I just hope I've been a positive influence on everybody I've been associated with," he said. "You can't please everybody. I hope I have pleased the majority of them and been a positive influence."
Franks is not a native of Havelock, but has been here almost all of his life. He remembers when all the roads heading out of Havelock were dirt.
"I moved here in 1949 at seven years of age and I've been here ever since," Franks said. "My father was a tenant farmer up in west Craven and we were starving to death, and he got a job at Cherry Point."
He remembers when the community shopping center at the corner of Jaycee Street and Cunningham Boulevard was the center of all activity in Havelock.
"That was the life of the town," he said.
Franks was in the first class to attend the first Havelock High School in 1956, which was held where Havelock Middle School is today.
"It was a real wild bunch we had," Franks said. "It was a lot of real wild things going like you'd see on TV, generally just tearing up things that we shouldn't have been. We took all the bolts out of the stalls in the bathrooms. The principal took them out. We never had any stalls in the boy's bathroom after that. The kids were lighting the trash cans on fire. We'd turn all of the Bunsen burners on in the lab and all of them would be blazing the gas out when the teacher come in."
The students would take unofficial, unapproved field trips in the woods adjacent to the school on some days, he said.
"It was just a wild time. David Miller, who is one of my best friends, and his friend, David Seaton, caught a big copperhead and they snuck him into our class and until they got caught they milked that snake every day," Franks said. "They had a jar and a piece of linen cloth and they would take this snake out every day and, just like you see the professionals do it, they would take that snake's head and milk the venom out of it every day. We were freshmen in high school."
After high school, Franks had a decision to make about what he wanted to do with his life.
"I was given a choice to get a job, go in the Army, go the school or get out, so I hit the street walking and the first place I stopped was an upholstery shop, and I took a job there for $15 a week. I was 18," Franks recalled.
In 1964, Franks did a brief stint in the Army and when he got back, he got married. He tried a job at the post office, but didn't like it, so he took a chance and started his own upholstery business.
That was 1967. He has been at his present location at 611 East Main St. since 1970.
Franks still works every day with five employees.
"I'm friends with them. I don't lord over them," he said. "I've had several good employees, some kept as long as 25 years."
He still takes time to work on the old PFAFF commercial sewing machine, piecing together jobs for cars, boats and airplanes.
"It is second nature for me to sit down and sew," Franks said. "I take what they don't want to do."
Franks was an avid water skier until a back injury kept him off the skis five years ago. He still hunts and is a rabid Havelock Rams football supporter, more than a half-century after attending the first-ever Havelock High football game in 1957.
"I've actually had an active life and an enjoyable one," Franks said. "It's just like the commercial says. A body in motion stays in motion. I've never been a couch potato."

Dr. Steven Tracy believes Margaret Tessneer's death was a homicide.
He said Friday, during testimony before Judge Richard Boner, he believed there was a 90 percent chance the 79-year-old was suffocated.
There was a 10 percent chance she died as a result of cardiac arrhythmia brought on by the stress of being raped and beaten, Tracy said.
When Tessneer's body arrived at Gaston Memorial Hospital on Sept. 22, 2003, it arrived battered and bruised but with no obvious signs of what led to her death.
Tracy, a pathologist, said he performed the autopsy two days after Tessneer was found dead in her Railroad Avenue home.
Donald Eugene Borders, who faces life in prison without parole if convicted, is standing trial for the rape and murder of the elderly woman.
Parties debate cause of death
In Tracy's report, he documented contusions, abrasions and hemorrhages on the 79-year-old woman's chest, abdomen, arms, legs, shoulder and feet.
In testimony that was heard while jurors were out of the room, Tracy described her body as "beaten."
He said an examination of her heart and other organs revealed a healthy woman with no serious medical conditions that could have been a result of her death.
Tracy said, by ruling out other potential causes of death and taking into account the sexual assault and bruises, he was convinced she was suffocated.
Despite Tracy's belief that Tessneer had been killed, the cause of death is listed as undetermined in both the autopsy report and on the death certificate.
Defense attorney David Teddy objected to Tracy's testimony that there was a "90 percent chance" her death was caused by suffocation, saying that the autopsy lists an undetermined cause of death and there was no conclusive evidence to prove Tracy's theory. Teddy said there was also no written report detailing Tracy's conclusions.
Judge Boner allowed Tracy to give his testimony to jurors but instructed him to refrain from using percentages.
State presents crime scene photos
Tessneer was found at her 1024 Railroad Ave. on Sept. 20, 2003 by her daughter, Libby Clark, and her son-in-law, Tommy.
The Clarks stopped by to visit, as they often did, and brought her breakfast.
They found Tessneer's home unlocked, a lamp still on and her body lying on her bed, according to Libby Clark's testimony.
Todd Vickery, who was a crime scene investigator in 2003, said he was called to Tessneer's home the day of her death.
He did a search of the home to look for anything missing or out of place, dusted for prints and took photos of the body.
The state displayed various photos for jury members to see, including the ripped telephone wires discovered outside Tessneer's home, a screen door with a tear in the mesh fabric and a cement block found underneath Tessneer's bedroom window
Tessneer's family left the courtroom before photos of her body were shown on a large screen in the front of the courtroom.
An older woman was pictured lying across the side of the bed, feet touching the floor, arms extended. There are no sheets on the bed.
A close-up photo documented a red abrasion that marked the length of her forearm.
Pale red stains spotted the egg crate, a foam pad, she was lying on.
One stain was above her outstretched arm and another one was below it.
Lying at her side was the lower plate of her dentures.
Her face is tilted toward the headboard, mouth open.
Vickery said, other than the area around Tessneer, nothing else appeared out of order.
One anomaly that caught his attention, he testified, was a photo in a frame that was tipped over on the nightstand.
Additional evidence presented in court
During the course of his testimony, Vickery testified the process of collecting evidence and how it is held in a locked evidence room at Shelby Police Department.
Several cardboard boxes were brought into the courtroom and, after each one was labeled as a state exhibit, Vickery opened the sealed boxes.
Inside was another sealed evidence bag containing Vickery's signature, date, time and other identifying features.
After cutting through tape on each sealed bag, Vickery displayed each item on the stand and explained what it was.
Tessneer's pale green nightgown, a blue housecoat, the lower plate of her dentures, the foam egg crate she had been lying on and her underwear were all displayed as evidence.
Teddy questioned Vickery if the scene had been manipulated during the course of the investigation.
"No, sir," Vickery responded.
He was also questioned why there was no crime scene log.
Vickery said he does not know what happened to the document.
Court will resume with Dr. Steven Tracy's testimony on Tuesday morning.

The Onslow County Board of Education has approved its 2013-14 budget just hours after the county's Board of Commissioners approved theirs.
The schools budget was approved Thursday in a unanimous vote.
The budget totals $2.5 million for capital outlay, $49 million for local current expense fund and $6.4 million in other special revenue.
The Board of Education had to adjust its budget, which was tentatively approved on May 14, after the Onslow County Board of Commissioners chose to fund the school system differently than the estimated amount from the funding formula the two boards agreed on in 2009.
County Manager Jeffrey Hudson told the board via an April 30 letter that the school system's request for an additional $2.1 million in current expense funding and an increase in capital budget funding per the funding formula was denied due to county needs and its unassigned fund balance. The
Included in the schools' $2.5 million capital outlay fund budget is:
- $1.9 million for building and property maintenance and improvements
- $205,000 for furniture and equipment
- $163,056 for school buses and service vehicles
- $207,966 for state school bus replacements
Schools staff cut $1.225 million from the budget due to the cuts from the Onslow County Commissioners, Schools Chief Finance Officer Jeff Hollamon said.
Revenue for the capital outlay budget is set to include $20,000 from sales tax reimbursement, $1.775 million from county appropriation, $1,000 from interest on investments, $207,966 for state replacement bus funding and $521,054.36 from fund balance appropriations.
The $49 million local current expense fund includes $423,108 in cuts and $1.7 million more from the school system's fund balance than was planned, according to school officials.
While eight instructional coaches were requested, only four have been approved and the requested three technology facilitators were eliminated, Hollamon explained.
New additions to the budget include $124,765 for computer equipment, a decrease from the $2.43 million that was requested.
The local current expense fund budget's revenue includes $205,000 from the state for sales tax reimbursement, $4.645 million from federal revenues including impact aid, and more than $51 million from local revenue. Local revenue breaks down as:
- $40,691,952 from county appropriation
- $1 million from fines and forfeitures
- $65,000 from interest on investments
- $1,000 from miscellaneous
- $7,339,443.30 appropriated from fund balance
The other special revenue budget includes $275,000 for contracted services regarding children with disabilities, according to the budget.

NORFOLK (AP) -- A Virginia Beach woman and the federal government have agreed to settle a malpractice lawsuit against the Hampton Veterans Administration Medical Center stemming from her twin sister's suicide.
Darla Grese's lawyer, Bob Haddad, tells The Virginian-Pilot that the federal government will pay his client $100,000, if a judge approves the settlement.
In the settlement, Haddad says the government doesn't take responsibility for or acknowledge liability for the death of Grese's sister, Navy veteran Kelli Grese.
Kelli Grese overdosed on an antipsychotic medication called Seroquel on Veterans Day in 2010. The medication was part of a cocktail of drugs that doctors at the Hampton hospital had prescribed for her.
The lawsuit had sought $5 million in damages.
