Comments about Tripp Lite SmartOnline 1kVA On-Line Double-Conversion UPS Tower 100/110/120V NEMA outlets:
This product is used to keep a server up for a short period of time in the event of a power outage. Also used to filter power spikes. The product is very easy to setup and install. Had a couple of question concerning unit display and a couple of how to's but Tripp-Lite support was very helpful and answered all questions.
I would recommend for use.

The highly-anticipated 'The Fault in Our Stars' gets its big screen debut on June 6, so obviously to prepare for it, the internet has created some memes about the film. There was already the 'It's a Metaphor Meme' that hit the virtual world, and now a new one has been going viral. This time, it is inspired by John Green, the author of the book. It all started with his Hollywood Reporter photo shoot, when YouTube superstars Charlie McDonnell and Emily Diana Ruth decided to do their own version of the author's weird pose using the hashtag #Johning. That opened the flood gates and now 'The Fault In Our Stars' fans from across the globe have gotten involved in #Johning.

The team hopes to make up for lost ground in Abu Dhabi.
A drive through penalty for Gutierrez and a technical retire for Hulkenberg.
Team founder Peter Sauber, meanwhile, sounded happy to simply keep Nico Hulkenberg and Esteban Gutierrez at the wheel in 2014.
Esteban Gutierrez' chances of staying at the Sauber team for a second season have been radically boosted.
Werner Heinz, Nico Hulkenberg's manager, said that sort of timeline, with the deal to be all done by the end of the week, is "unrealistic".
According Force India's sporting director Otmar Szafnauer, Pirelli's mid-season tyre specification switch badly hurt some teams like Force India.
Nico got into Q3 and placed 7th for tomorrow's race while Esteban is in 14th
Franz Tost believes that with Ricciardo and Vergne Toro Rosso is in better position for driving skills.
Nico Hulkenberg: "I am going [to Suzuka] in a very optimistic mood."
Gutierrez told he has changed his whole approach to the entire weekend.
Vettel has taken his sixth pole position of the season
Hülkenberg and Gutiérrez will start tomorrows race form P7 and P8 respectively due to Webber's 10 places penalty.
Both Sauber F1 Team drivers still see room for improvement for qualifying tomorrow afternoon.
Team boss Kaltenborn said Sauber is yet to decide who Sirotkin's teammate will be, but is approaching the decision with an open mind.
Sauber ready for the 14th Round of the FIA Formula One World Championship
If rumours come true, Sirotkin will test drive a Ferrari and the Sauber team may end up with two Russian racers.
"I would only have to train my neck." - Rubens Barrichello
Nico Hulkenberg: "In the end, I did have to give back the position to him [Sergio Perez] and I don't quite agree with that."
Nico Hülkenberg was unlucky with the DRS not working properly during a final lap and will start from the 11th place position, behind Esteban Gutierrez.
The team is convinced the Sauber C32 has not yet reached its full potential.
On Wednesday, Esteban Gutiérrez will join Official Partner Chelsea Football Club for "Dribble and Race"
Monisha Kaltenborn assures that things go in the right direction
Nico Hülkenberg: "I am very happy and fifth was the ideal result. Despite starting third, it was always clear keeping the Ferrari and Red Bulls behind was not realistic."
The German got in Hamilton's way at the final corner - the Parabolica - as the Briton was completing a timed lap.

The Ionian Islands region
The Ionian Islands are located in the Ionian Sea, in the western part of Greece. The Ionian Sea is also called the Adriatic sea. The Ionian are some of the most popular Greek islands and attract a lot of people from all over Europe. They are composed of Corfu, Lefkada, Kefalonia, Zakynthos, Ithaca, Paxoi and Kythira. These islands are known for their beautiful beaches, their charming villages and their verdant landscapes.
Amoudi - Psarou Beach
The area of Psarou Beach is situated between the resorts of Amoudi and Tsilivi, on the North-Eastern coast of Zakynthos Island. Psarou beach is just 12 km far from Zante town. It is a green, quiet area, surrounded by a rich Mediterranean flora.
Porta del mar is located over a pretty, private cove in the middle of Psarou beach. This quite sandy beach has been awarded with the European Blue flag the last 10 consecutive years. It is very safe and ideal for swimming, snorkeling and canoeing.
The surrounding unspoilt countryside provides interesting walks through the beautiful olive groves. Within walking distance (50 – 200 meters long) from your villa, you will find many taverns, mini-markets and a bakery for your daily needs.

And this tendency to stereotype extends beyond height. In the face of an attractive person, there's a risk that you will see competence where it doesn't exist. Likewise, you may unknowingly overlook the greater competence found in a less attractive person.
How to prevent appearance discrimination in your hiring
To successfully fill your organization with top performers, you need to reduce the risk that any factors other than competence enter into your hiring decision.
Here's what works for my firm. Instead of forming our first impressions face to face, we start with a lengthy phone call. Properly structured telephone interviews let you focus on the most important factors of job performance without being distracted by appearance. Therefore, your first impressions are formed based on what a candidate has achieved, not how they look. And yes, we also try to avoid judging their voice too much.
By learning about someone's accomplishments before you've met face-to-face, you give your rational mind a running head start. And this interview process also makes you less susceptible to the charms of someone confident, polished, and completely ineffective — the empty suits that wander the halls of so many executive suites.
As Gladwell puts it:
"Have you ever wondered why so many mediocrities find their way into positions of authority in companies and organizations? It's because when it comes to even the most important positions, we think that our selection decisions are a good deal more rational than they actually are. We see a tall person, and we swoon."

Under which conditions will successive rotations of $(0,1)$ by an angle $\theta$ guarantee that given $\delta > 0$ and some point $p$ on the unit circle, there exists some $n$ such that rotating $(0,1)$ by $n\theta$ yields a point within $\delta$ radians of $p$? That is, are there certain angles that will guarantee that the set generated by rotating $(0,1)$ by integral multiples of $\theta$ is dense in the unit circle?
More specifically, I am working with the angle $\arccos(\frac{1}{3})$ and wish to show that this property is true, but I'm not sure how to go about proving this. It seems likely I'm missing something simple here... Does it hold for any angle that is an irrational multiple of $\pi$? If so, why?

BART management, unions resume contract talks
SAN FRANCISCO Contract negotiations between Bay Area Rapid Transit's management and employee unions have resumed as Gov. Jerry Brown awaits a report on the labor dispute.
The two sides restarted talks Thursday but remained tens of millions of dollars apart on wages, pensions and medical benefits.
A board appointed by Brown is expected to present a report to the governor by Sunday night. Brown can then petition a court to call a 60-day cooling-off period, when BART trains could continue to run.
The panel heard arguments from unions and management Wednesday.
Brown's decision to call for a "board of inquiry" Sunday night prevented the unions from striking this week.
A Monday strike is still possible if the dispute isn't resolved by Sunday night and Brown doesn't call for the cooling-off period.
THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP's earlier story is below.
The Bay Area Rapid Transit agency and two of its unions still appear a long way from resolving their bitter labor dispute as demonstrated before a fact-finding appointed panel by Gov. Jerry Brown.
With a threat of another strike looming, tens of millions of dollars apparently separate BART's contract proposal from that of its unions, the parties said Wednesday as each repeatedly disputed the exact amount of the difference.
"Unfortunately, we remain far apart on the major issues of this contract," BART General Manager Grace Crunican testified. "That is why we are here today."
Crunican said BART is trying to balance investing in workers with the long term sustainability and financial health of the transit system.
But, Vincent Harrington, an attorney for the Service Employees International Union, told the panel, "We are not ashamed to be bargaining to defend a middle-class wage and benefit package. No one should be ashamed of that."
His comments prompted union members in the audience, many in purple SEIU T-shirts, to applaud.
The panel was appointed by Brown on Sunday, as a strike that would have snarled the Monday morning commute looms large.
The panel has been given seven days to investigate the contract dispute and report its findings to the governor, who can then petition a court to call a 60-day cooling off period in the negotiations.
BART trains would continue to run during that period.
The panel will explain the positions of BART and the union but will not find fault or issue a recommendation. The panel has until Sunday night to submit a report to the governor.
However, there is the potential for a strike on Monday if a cooling-off period is not declared and the two sides are unable to reach a deal by Sunday night. The parties are scheduled to resume bargaining Thursday.
BART Senior Attorney Vicki Nuetzel said Wednesday the agency and the unions are $100 million apart in a proposed four-year contract. But, Kate Hallward, an attorney for the Amalgamated Transit Union, the other union battling BART, disputed that figure. She pegged the difference at about $56 million for a three-year contract.

It also features part of an interview with Brian Croucher (Travis (2) on Blake's 7) that can be heard in full in Doctor Who: Podshock 219.

But is it Sonic? Sonic Screwdriver Wii-Mote and Stylus Coming Soon!
Last month Graeme Sheridan @The2ndDoctor reported on the new Doctor Who games coming for the Nintendo Wii and DS game systems. We also spoke about it in Doctor Who: Podshock 220. Now news has broken that Blue Ocean will be releasing a new Nintendo Wii remote controller device as well as a stylus and slipcases for the DS based on the 11th Doctor's sonic screwdriver.
Awards for Doctor Who and The Waters of Mars
Doctor Who has won Best Family Drama by the TV Choice Awards 2010. Karen Gillan (Amy Pond) and Steven Moffat (Lead Writer and Executive Producer) were there in person at the ceremony Monday evening hosted by Alexander Armstrong (voice of "Mr. Smith" on The Sarah Jane Adventures).
This comes on the heels of another award granted to Doctor Who, this time a Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation (Short Form) for last year's Doctor Who special, The Waters of Mars(Amazon US link).
Out of the handful of Doctor Who specials transmitted last year, I enjoyed Waters most.
Paul Cornell was at the Hugo Awards ceremony presenting an award.
Congratulations all around!
Legend of the Cybermen Review
Ok this release has been out a while, but I had a lot of work in the way, so hear goes (a bad audio joke, Big Finish audio ahem Yes cough well).
I will start by saying this review (of Legend of the Cybermen) will have spoilers in it, but hopefully enough that you'll go out and buy it. The first thing is the story continues on from The Wreck of the Titan, and by that really had a lot to live up to, because Wreck was written so well by, and directed by Barnaby Edwards of Dalek fame and not of DWNY fame. In comparison Legend is written by Mike Maddox and Directed by Nick Briggs.
Sarah Jane, The Doctor, and Jo Grant Return in October
According to various (unconfirmed) reports on the net, the new 4th series of The Sarah Jane Adventures will be returning to the BBC and CBBC on Monday, 11 October 2010 (with part 1 of The Nightmare Man by Joseph Lidster).
It is unclear whether the new series is back to one episode a week or will it be similar to last year which transmitted two episodes a week. Remember, each story takes two half-hour episodes to tell in The Sarah Jane Adventures. The BBC had commissioned two new series (24 x 30-minutes episodes), this is the first of the two (12 episodes telling six stories). No details as of yet pertaining to this series outside of the UK.
Chameleon Circuit - Type 40 (music video)
Another Doctor Who related music video from Ed Stockham and features the music of the band, Chameleon Circuit, the same folks that brought you An Awful Lot of Running. I still prefer the latter, but this is interesting nonetheless.
Thanks to @AdricAntfarm for bringing it to my attention.

No Daleks For You!
More news coming out concerning the 2011 Doctor Who series (or set of series as it is now) is that we may get a reprieve from the Daleks stories. This according to what executive producer and lead writer Steven Moffat hinted at the Edinburgh TV Festival:
Moffat: 'No Daleks in next Who series' - Digital Spy:
"Speaking at the Edinburgh TV Festival, the Who showrunner admitted that there are currently no plans for the famous aliens to reappear, although work on the 2011 series is not yet complete.
Doctor Who, Series Split.
Steven Moffat announced at the Edinburgh International Television Festival that the next season of Doctor Who will be split. But not like we think of spilt, according to Steven, "The wrong expression would be to say we are splitting it in two. We are making it two separate series." Seven episodes are to be shown up to Easter and the remaining six episodes are to be shown in the autumn.
Sarah Douglas is the Blob-Like Entity in Doctor Who (video)
Here is Sarah Douglas talking about her role in the Doctor Who Adventure Game as the "blob-like entity" / Professor Meadows in this short video. You may recall we broke the story of Sarah's role in Doctor Who when we interviewed her earlier this year at I-CON. If you didn't catch it, it was Doctor Who: Podshock 189. At that time she and we were unsure of exactly what her role was going to be, only that it was for an interactive animated story. We had assumed it may have been another BBC "Red Button" interactive Doctor Who episode before learning of the new Doctor Who Adventure Game series.
On a personal note, it was a real delight spending time with Sarah this past spring. We had her on our show when she during the early stage of this video game project, we would love to have back to speak more on it sometime in the future.

COMING IN MARCHJust finished watching the Academy Awards, and it was great fun, despite the idiot Seth MacFarlane who has to be the worst person to ever host the Oscars. There is only one place for a trash brained, foul mouthed, booze addled celeb like him, and that is late night TV, not the Oscars! To give you an example, he joked that the only man to get inside Abraham Lincoln's head was John Wilkes Booth. That's not funny, it is an ugly and sad jab at a tragic event in our history. There is nothing funny about one man shooting another in the back of the head! Another joke he made was about how violent the movie 'Django Unchained' is. He said it would be a good date movie for Chris Brown and Rhianna. For those of you not familiar with these two, Chris Brown beat the shit out of his girlfriend Rhianna a few years back and was arrested for domestic violence. They have since reconciled and are back together. Again, there is nothing funny about a man who beats
UNTITLEDMy chimes they sing to a gust of windUNTITLED9 months ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
The feel of it somewhat cold
And I was dancing round the bend
In a field of marigolds.
Field mice scatter to where they may
The garden gnomes stoic and bold
I'm listening to what the wind might say
In a field of marigolds.
Fireflies are dancing in the field
Like me they are breaking the mold
Clouds providing a welcomed shield
In a field of marigolds.
Some Marmots are wobbling across the ground
Their meal is both damp and cold
The hummingbirds making that buzzing sound
In a field of marigolds.
The setting sun means that I must leave
But I'll remember all that was told
Here we untangle the web that was weaved
In this field of marigolds…

A SADNESS PASSES THROUGHEight years I have been without youA SADNESS PASSES THROUGH2 years ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
And still a sadness passes through
A screaming wind catches my hair
My mind is spinning like a bicycle wheel.
My path is bleak now, without you
Much like a sadness passing through
Loping aimlessly my head hung low
No handkerchief to hold my tears.
O how I wish that life was a sprint
To end this sadness passing through
Distance is no longer my enemy
As time has broken my solemn heart.
I'm sitting here wanting to say goodbye
Yet still my sadness passes through
The clouds are warning that I should go
After eight years, I'm coming home...

Over the centuries at last;
Once again standing eye to eye,
Have you forgotten that love can't die?
My dearest love hold you steadfast;
I have…

And some must surely stand aghast;
Much like a wind into the mast,
Transcending death, you have to try;
I have…

Flailing tears of golden streams
In amber lights of sunset rays.
Somberness fulfills the days
Emptiness crawls through the night
With songs and games from animals

Yielding fruits and untamed land
Songbirds singing high above
Soaring across the mountainside.
'Twas once a golden paradise
Until the dust had brought forth man…

Hoping to somehow fit in
Emulating perfection.
Make-up, curling irons, and clothes
It turns us into something else
Roses painted to be washed clean
Remnants of what we wish to be

Resplendence never comes for free!
Look in the mirror, what do you see
Inner beauty is never there
Eyes are not made to look upon it
So goes the mirror, so goes the soul…

HUSH NOWHush now for the pain and sorrow,HUSH NOW2 years ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
And let the silence have its say;
Suffer not to beg or borrow,
As anguish comes to rue the day.
This quietness, like words, impart
A pathway towards our love's endgame;
Let stillness mend the broken heart,
And stay the tongue that tends to blame.
Regret and remorse come to call,
It does no good to shut them out;
Reminders etched upon the walls,
Removes the shadows casting doubt.
The time that's said can heal all wounds,
Will beat the heart that's grown too weak;
And tears upon the cheek festoon,
They say much more than words can speak.
Now time has come and I must go,
It does no good in asking why;
Sometimes it's not for us to know,
So hush now, even Angels cry…

PARADOX (A SESTINA)A moment can sometimes last forever,PARADOX (A SESTINA)2 years ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
forever often a blink of the eye;
whoever controls the concept of time,
has nothing that we can truly measure.
Yes, here lies the crux of the human mind,
to truly see more than the eyes can see.
Disturbed half-truths make it hard to see,
lost and blind in the halls of forever;
pain and remorse, they do not seem to mind,
only to shrink from the all seeing eye.
Demons have weighed, and Angles will measure,
here it all swirls in the vortex of time.
We master our fate, but succumb to time,
daily it manifests for all to see;
tremors not even Richter could measure,
sinews tearing for what seems forever.
Disturbing enough to cast a blind eye,
the stage for this play is all in your mind.
What are the mysteries inside the mind?
The comprehension in ripples of time,
can it really be more than meets the eye?
Perhaps more than we are willing to see?
Questions that will perplex us forever,
till nothing is left for us to measure.
Recall the rule of measure for me

My pain is dry like desert sand
I have been killed many a time
But God won't let me die.
I have no more tears to shed
Why cry into a perpetual oblivion
It sure as hell can't answer
And oblivion is my best friend!
I have no more tears to shed
And no one else to love me
What is life without love
Use mine as an example.
I have no more tears to shed
Incapable of helping myself
Will God not save me now
Have I earned my place in heaven?
I have no more tears to shed
And no heart left to break
Only a very tired and tortured soul
Which must be given care.
I have no more tears to shed
Will no one cry for me
Family perhaps, but no one else
This must be my destiny.
I have no more tears to shed
Yet I remain faithful to my God
Accepting the fate that's been chosen for me
Lonely oblivion, I await thee…

THE DRIFTERThe darkest blue had caught his eye,THE DRIFTER2 years ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
limitless across the sky;
still he walked the quiet streets,
blackened shadows kissed his feet.
A drifter had he been, till now,
for peace his mind would not allow;
tears began to flow from he,
this man who faces destiny.
No wind to cool his burning face,
his sleeping heart began to race;
'City Limits' read the sign,
walking on, he crossed the line.
The dead were scattered all around,
and from the city came no sound;
that ball of fire in the sky,
all but he had seemed to die.
His family he had hoped to find,
reverence crept into his mind;
finally now his search would end,
standing still as was the wind.
The house was quiet, still as night,
he used a lantern as his light;
his eyes now seeing what he dread,
for there he found his family dead.
T'was here the drifter met his fate,
with no more need to contemplate;
the pistol fired, the drifter fell,
to only see another hell.
Now the sky was red with blood,

The paradox, it vexes me;

what's staring back now looks so strange,
or is it we presume too much?

clouds drift on like tide water's blue,
and winds do moan in last of light.
Flowers of the field stretch and bow,
their actions tied upon the wind;
a future ever present now,
this field of flowers sleeps again.
Connected to the wind they are,
as fingers bent in fleshy palm;
like hangers, some are bent to far,
to live again in mornings calm.
Such beauty seen against the sky,
from a distance they seem to pose;
on the highway cars are passing by,
glistening in the twilight's glow.
Visible no more, the sun sets,
the mighty wind still blows along;
and flowers sleep with no regrets,
enchanted by the winds sweet song…

Father watches the evening news, while mother reads her book
The clock gives a final tick as midnight baits the hook
Then all is quiet, not a sound, the creatures singing blends
Quiet is the night, the night brings us the end…

NOTHINGNESSThe soundless cry of an empty heartNOTHINGNESS2 years ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
An endless race that has no start
Forgotten yet it can be found
Loud but never makes a sound
Smiling, how can it be sad
Can goodness really trump the bad
Youthful yet it feels so old
Being warm and really cold
Claims victory without a race
Appears intact, but out of place
Smells so bitter, tastes so sweet
Hearts that really never beat
In search of truth to find the lies
Lacking wings but tries to fly
Breaths in air, but has no life
Granting pity but causing strife
Born to live, but all must die
While nothingness waits by the bye…

SWEET INNOCENCESweet beauty we do praise your nameSWEET INNOCENCE1 month ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
radiant as shines the day
it is innocence we lay the blame
of why your mind was swept away.
T'was Hamlet that you gave your heart
marriage, yes you did aspire
his words were spoken with such art
that it set your very soul to fire.
His father's death had sent him mad
and his heart became a mystery
his sickness made you very sad
your covenant now cannot be.
Polonius slain by Hamlet's sword
now fatherless you went insane
tears that ran, O how they poured
your cross to bear this wrenching pain.
In a quiet brook you chose to lay
whilst music danced upon thy breath
and there I know your spirit stays
for while in song, you met with death.
Forsaken love does beauty die
lest we forget her name
sweet Ophelia's soul it cries
in innocence we lay the blame...

SHE COMES TO GRIEVEShe comes to grieve, this heart that achesSHE COMES TO GRIEVE2 years ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
in amber light as daylight breaks
with water calm, and wind so still
her skin reflecting morning's chill…
Her lover lost, claimed by the sea
warm tears wash her infirmities
she prays that fortune bend its will
her skin reflecting mornings chill…
He promised her he would return
by all the fires that passion burns
but passing time brings omens ill
her skin reflecting morning's chill…
And so she comes here every day
her hopes, each time, they pass away
of pain and loss she's had her fill
her skin reflecting morning's chill…
She comes to grieve, this heart that aches
in amber light as daylight breaks
with waters calm and wind so still
her skin reflecting morning's chill…

THE WOMAN IN THE WINDOWMy god let me not think on her now!THE WOMAN IN THE WINDOW2 years ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
Not after these past twenty years.
Torment and torture from so long ago,
my mind could not bear it again...
I was just eleven then, just a young boy,
and every morning at 4 am
I walked the sidewalks throwing newspapers;
in the dark of early morning...
One house had a beautiful bay window,
decorated with lace curtains;
at its center I saw a rocking chair,
sitting it it was a woman...
I could see she was old by her grey hair.
She waved at me, and I would wave back,
smiling I would continue on my way;
and so this went on for many weeks...
There was one morning when she did not wave,
but motioned for me to come closer.
Hesitant I drew nearer to the window,
I was frozen by what I saw...
Her skin was the color of ashen grey,
with eyes devoid of any life.
I could see her struggling to move her lips,
she pressed her hand against the window...
Her mouth opened to reveal rotted teeth;
my eyes firmly fixed upon hers.
Slowly my arm raised up and our hands met,
I SHOULDN'T HAVE STOPPEDDark and dreary the night has comeI SHOULDN'T HAVE STOPPED2 years ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
and I no place to rest
my vision could no longer hold
the roads that I knew best.
I dared not walk another step
but what a fool am I
to think I nary, but a chance
I trod on bye the bye.
Pray for me on a bended knee
for I will not come home
and here upon this lonesome road
is where my ghost shall roam.
The sweetest song had caught my ear
it had me in a trance
without my sight I traveled on
I could not help but dance.
The fog began to dissipate
I saw that it was day
a woman brighter than the sun
her eyes they bade me stay.
Pray for me on a bended knee
for I will not come home
and here upon this lonesome road
is where my ghost shall roam.
This woman sang with sweet repose
and stole away my breath
forever in eternal sleep
with melody of death.
Be this the road you travel by
and you hear some odd tune
no hesitation, turn away
or die by light of moon.
Pray for me on a bended knee
for I will not come home
and here upon this lonesome road
is where my ghost sh
A VISION OF YOUBe still the waters that flow this nightA VISION OF YOU2 years ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
and bring a calm to Zephyr's breath.
Silence songs that Sirens sing
and let not Hades seek for death.
I have drank the wine of Dionysus
and braved Poseidon's sea;
in seeking out my one true love
that better part of me.
I have reached the steps of Venus's throne
resplendent in auras of blue
she pointed up into the night sky
where I saw such a vision of you.
There within the moon's glossy light
remains there a vision of you…
David Rogers
WITHOUT YOU I AM NOTHINGWithout you I am nothing, for what am I without you?WITHOUT YOU I AM NOTHING2 years ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
Given the choice of your love and the light of the sun,
I would risk eternal darkness and let your love light my way.
No purpose is greater under heaven than love from the soul,
To receive this love is priceless; to give it humbles me so.
Love is the answer, love is the key, it is in the ocean and the air we breathe.
Love is timeless, ageless, and blind, for you need not see to love.
Sweet Becky, how precious you are, I am on top of the world now!
Devoted to giving you a better life, remember this one thing,
Without you I am nothing…
David Rogers

Discover how to trace artwork in Adobe Illustrator and convert raster graphics into vector form. This course shows how to perform auto tracing with the Image Trace panel as well as create artwork from scratch using the Shape Builder and the Pen tool. Author Justin Seeley shares several real-world tracing scenarios, which will help you learn how to assess artwork, determine its traceability, and then convert it into vector form in a variety of different ways.
(music playing) Hi there! My name is Justin Seeley, and I'm a staff author here at Lynda.com. I want to welcome you to this course on Tracing Artwork with Adobe Illustrator. Tracing Artwork is an essential part of any designer's workflow. We're going to start off with some core tracing concepts, wherein I help you set your expectations for what Illustrator is actually capable of, and I'll walk you through some of the most common tracing scenarios that you might encounter in the real world as well. From there, I'll walk you through my personal workflows when it comes to cleaning up your raster graphics for better tracing results, and scanning original artwork and getting it into Adobe Illustrator.
Next up, we'll dive into using Illustrator's image trace feature, and I'll also show you how to finalize those tracings, and turn pixels into live editable paths. We'll turn a sketch into Vector artwork from scratch. We'll also build a logo from a photograph, and we'll create a pop art style poster. By the end of this course, you should have all the information you need to recreate almost any piece of artwork that's put in front of you. Let's jump right in, and begin this course on Tracing Artwork with Adobe Illustrator.

Hectic lobbying is under way for securing the Congress ticket in the forthcoming by-election to Station Ghanpur constituency in Warangal district.
Senior leaders are learnt to have put forth their candidature for the seat which was vacated by the resignation of T. Rajaiah who subsequently shifted loyalty to the Telangana Rashtra Samiti.
While the TRS retained Mr. Rajaiah for the by-poll, the Telugu Desam Party finalised the name of former Minister Kadiam Srihari, who represented the constituency in the past and is considered a strong leader.
Congress Member of Parliament from Warangal, S. Rajaiah, is learnt to have proposed the name of his son S. Anil and former Minister B. Arogyam offered himself as the candidate at a meeting convened here on Monday by Chief Minister N. Kiran Kumar Reddy to review the ruling party's prospects in Warangal district.
Two other leaders, Warangal district SC cell former president Gangarapu Amruta Rao and SC/ST Commission former member Rajarapu Pratap are also in the fray for the Congress party ticket.
The meeting was attended by Ministers Ponnala Lakshmaiah and B. Saraiah, Government Chief Whip G. Venkataramana Reddy and others.

Wonderful baroque. Asked one of the most 'beautiful Lecce. Magnificent facade, interior clear and simple. The Baroque in Lecce stone extracted from a new dimension.
This church devoted to the patron of the city, has an amazing interior distribution and detail. A clear example of the Baroque period of Lecce.
What an amazing style of ornamentation. Exuberant doesn't really describe it. Lots of students sitting on the steps added to the charm.
This church is quite similar but less illustrious than Santa Croce. Make sure you enter and visit the beautiful altars on each side of the church.
Had to visit it for my mom. It's really worth to walk the few steps from Piazza Sant' Oronzo to this church. The two side altars are really special. Beware of self-appointed guides even if they seem knowledgeable.

residential water meter connection
I have a 3/4 in. steel pipe water supply line to my house that needs replacing. The connection on the water meter is a threaded female connector with a tail piece that looks to be welded to a coupling which is welded to my supply line. Where can I get a fitting to connect to the water meter that will also connect to my new water line without welding? I plan to come out of the meter with steel or galvanized pipe for about a foot or 15 inches and convert to PVC.
Thanks, Nick

Caroline Flack raised the temperature at the NTA Awards last week when she uncharacteristically got her cleavage out on the red carpet.
And the Xtra Factor presenter, who is famed for wearing shorts and blazers, has gone one step further today, posting a half-naked photo on her Instagram page.
The 33-year-old, who is rumoured to be dating X Factor winner James Arthur, uploaded the picture onto her social network with the caption: "Casually hanging out. Just at home."
The intimate shot shows Cazza sprawled out on an ornate sofa in a matching white underwear set, with a sheer shirt thrown over her arms.
Caroline looks seductively at the camera as she pushes her (rather *ahem* ample) chest in the same direction. Seriously hot.
Rumours are rife that James Arthur has a special place in the TV host's life after the pair were spotted out together at Soho's Groucho club last week.
Any signs the pair were hooking up straight after he won the show in December seemed to be rubbished when he stepped out holding hands with Made In Chelsea's Kimberley Garner.
But it looks like it could be back on again, after the two were spied leaving the exclusive members club from different exits just days ago.
Whatever is going on with her love life, Flackers is clearly having a lot of fun with her image at the moment - as she also debuted a new darker hair shade recently.
Cazza made us double take on the National TV Awards red carpet when she showed off her new darker locks.
And we couldn't believe it when she modelled a pretty short frock, rather than her staple shorts.
Meanwhile in other Caroline Flack-related news, the TV star may be set to get a new partner on the Xtra Factor.
With Celebrity Big Brother winner Rylan Clark eyeing up the coveted job, Caroline says she isn't sure whether Olly Murs is returning.

ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — The Los Angeles Angels used eight pitchers — a franchise record for a nine-inning game — in a 2-0 victory over Oakland on Saturday night that increased their AL West lead over the Athletics to four games.
The deficit is the largest for the A's this season. They led the division by four games on Aug. 9 before going on their current 6-13 slide. Their only hits were infield singles by Josh Donaldson in the first and fourth, and a single by Sam Fuld in the ninth.
Cory Rasmus made his first major league start for the Angels in place of Garrett Richards, out for the season because of a torn patellar tendon in his left knee. The 26-year-old right-hander threw 49 pitches over three innings, matching his longest stint in 43 relief appearances over two big league seasons.
Yoslan Herrera (1-1) got the win in the Angels' fifth consecutive victory. Huston Street recorded three outs for his 11th save.
Jeff Samardzija (4-4) went the distance for Oakland, allowing four hits while striking out eight.
CHICAGO (AP) — Kyle Ryan pitched six scoreless innings in his major league debut, and the Tigers salvaged a split of a day-night doubleheader with a potentially costly victory.
Tigers slugger Miguel Cabrera pulled up lame while running out a grounder in the fourth inning, forcing him from the game. The All-Star has been dealing with a sore right ankle.
In the opener, Chris Sale struck out a season-high 13, beating Max Scherzer in a matchup of All-Star aces and leading Chicago to a 6-3 win.
Ezequiel Carrera, Don Kelly and Ian Kinsler each had three hits for Detroit in the nightcap. Ryan (1-0) allowed five hits and walked two.
Promoted from Double-A Birmingham prior to the game, White Sox right-hander Chris Bassitt (0-1) allowed five runs and seven hits in 6 1-3 innings in his major league debut.
Sale (11-3) struck out at least 10 for the 17th time in his career, tying Hall of Famer Ed Walsh for the franchise record. The lanky left-hander reached that figure in 81 major league starts — Walsh made 312 for the White Sox from 1904-1916.
Jake Petricka pitched the ninth for his 10th save.
Adam Dunn hit a two-run homer and Tyler Flowers also went deep against Scherzer (15-5), who fanned 11 and walked none in 6 2-3 innings. But he was touched up for six runs, five earned, and nine hits in the makeup of a June 10 rainout.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Michael Brantley and Carlos Santana each had an RBI single in the 11th inning as Cleveland earned its third consecutive win.
Kansas City has lost three in a row to fall into a first-place tie with Detroit, which split a doubleheader at Chicago. Cleveland is just 3 1/2 back in the bunched AL Central.
The Royals got a run back in the bottom of the 11th when Salvador Perez's two-out double scored Jarrod Dyson. But Erik Kratz struck out to end the game.

The Des Moines Register's Tom Witosky reports that First Lady Laura Bush, while campaigning for Whalen, urged voters to the polls, "America faces challenges too important to be reduced to just politics." LINK
Pat Kinney of the Quad City Times also adds that while not mentioning Sen.

Resident Hopes 'Hometown Idol' Catches On
By Penny Williams, The Eagle-Tribune, North Andover, Mass.
Jul. 28–SANDOWN — If there's hidden talent in town, Shawn Allen hopes to discover it.
The rescue squad captain is behind "Hometown Idol," with auditions set for next month.
Allen plans to videotape the auditions and produce a series of shows to be broadcast over local cable Channel 17 this fall as a weekly program. The weekly shows will lead up to a grand finale, when the finalists will compete in what he hopes will be a live cable segment.
"We are looking for the best and for the worst, so everyone should come and give it a try," Allen said. "The whole purpose is to raise money for Make-A-Wish Foundation and to help the local food pantry. Participants will be asked to bring canned goods or paper products to the auditions, as well as pay a small entrance fee."
There will be judges, and the show will follow the basic "American Idol" format. Auditions are open to anyone 13 and older.
As far as Allen is concerned, the more contestants who show up to audition, the greater the fun for everyone.
"The Sandown Rescue has a booth at Old Home Days Aug. 9, and people are invited to stop by and find out more about the 'Hometown Idol' event. … We may even have some auditions right then and there," he said. "We will be collecting food items, paper products and hygiene items for the food pantry at the booth during Old Home Days. If you want to audition, bring some with you when you come by to audition and a small donation for the Make-A-Wish Foundation — and do so even if you are just coming by to say hello."
Allen is working with other area town local cable committees to see if the Sandown weekly "Hometown Idol" show can be run on their channels as well. He plans to work with Hampstead and Chester, among others. That way, he said, information about what is needed at the food pantry and where to send donations to the Make-A-Wish Foundation will be given out weekly in more towns than just Sandown.
"I believe we're the only one doing this for charitable purposes and as a weekly television show for local cable channels," he said. "That should make it all the more fun and hopefully interest more people to come and audition. Everyone is welcome."
Local businesses are donating prizes. The winner will receive eight hours of recording studio time and DJ karaoke service, as well as a cash prize.

UAAP board: Swimmer Mikee Bartolome needs one year of residency
More News from Celest R. Flores
More News from INQUIRER.net
MANILA, Philippines — The UAAP board on Friday said that swimmer Mikee Bartolome still needs to serve a year of residency even after she has secured a court injuction against the two-year residency rule.
The league insisted that it remains respectful of the court's granting of the temporary restraining order, but has no recourse "but to heed and revert to the previous rule which has been imposed for decades."
"The court order was specific on the "two-year" rule which was imposed only this Season 76, and not on the previously accepted "one-year" rule," the board also said.
The old rule requires a freshman student-athlete who transfers from one UAAP school to another to complete one year of residency.
Bartolome, though, was able to suit up for the Maroons in the first day of the ongoing UAAP season 76 swimming competitions at Trace College in Los Baños, Laguna.
But the father of the 17-year-old tanker said that only the swimming director and commissioner gave the green light for fear of contempt amid the instruction of the UAAP board not to let Mikee compete.
"Ayaw syang payagan, pero syempre natatakot yung director ng swimming at commissioner kasi nag-consult sila sa laywer. Ang sabi sa kanila, pag di nyo pinayagan, kasama kayo mako-contempt (They won't let her compete, but the swimming director and commissioner got scared after consulting a lawyer who told them they might face contempt)," Vic Bartolome said in a phone call.
The league, meanwhile, said that Mikee, "like all other freshman transferees before her, must undergo the one-year residency before she could swim for UP."
This confusion even sparked an alleged boycott among other schools as they refused to swim in the selected events in the women's joust that Bartolome is competing in.
In the women's 4×50 medley relay, only UP and Ateneo were left to dispute the medals with the Maroons eventually bagging gold with Bartolome's help.
The UAAP board, though, said that it did not order such boycott and deemed the moved as the "schools' decision, perhaps as a sign of personal indignation or protest."
Senator Pia Cayetano, a staunch critic of the two-year residency rule and supporter of the Bartolomes in their legal battle, slammed the reported boycott.
"I condemn the boycott instigated by certain school officials at the UAAP swimming competitions in support of the UAAP Board's brazen refusal to abide by the court rulings affirming Mikee Bartolome's right to swim in the school of her choice," she said a statement.
