One of the things we work on with overheads is to not point at the ball. The overhead requires a good shoulder rotation and pointing at the ball doesnt help you achieve that. If you need to point, a better option is to point at the ball with your non-dominant arm elbow.
The key with the overhead once you establish where your going to hit it, is to not start focusing on other things like where your opponent is. This causes your eyes to drop and most likely your head will follow.
The number one reason players have trouble with overheads is a dropping head just as or slightly before impact. Keep the head up and watch the blur of your arm go by.
You should also hit an overhead with a serving grip. You have to perform slight adjustments with a eastern forehand grip to sqaure the racquet to the ball. These adjustments (with a ball dropping very fast) can cause a number of errors and inconsistencies. I would suggest you practice with a Continental grip for your overheads. Remeber you dont want a lot of stuff going on with the overhead. There is enough "calculating" going on to meet the ball properly.

A new anti-tax pledge with a local flavor
Current candidates in the 79th Assembly District include Shirley Weber, an SDSU professor and former San Diego Unified School District trustee, and Sid Voorakkara, a program officer for the nonprofit California Endowment.
The race that keeps on giving: Former Assemblywoman Lori Saldaña, a candidate for Republican Rep. Brian Bilbray's reshaped congressional district, has announced the endorsement of Assemblyman Tom Ammiano, D-San Francisco, a gay rights leader and political firebrand. Ammiano said he was impressed by Saldaña's "political courage."
Meanwhile, Bilbray this week joined a growing list of lawmakers to co-sponsor House Resolution 1148, The Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge (STOCK) Act. The bill gained widespread attention after the program "60 Minutes" last month aired a segment on members of Congress and their staffs profiting from nonpublic information.

Strengths: Climbs well, handles XC and light freeride trails great.

Strengths: Agile, Decent Weight, Components, Plush Suspension
Weaknesses: Sketchy Front End on Steep Climbs
Bottom Line:
I did a ton of research before finally settling on this bike despite not having tested it as a demo model was not available. Instead, I tested the Fuel EX9 which has identical geometry to the Remedy but much less travel. You'll notice in the field below the bikes I tested. This bike has surpassed my expectations and with winter hitting Canada, I'm already dreaming of the next riding season. I went with this bike over the Fuel EX because the sales guy made a point, the fuel will always ride like a 120mm travel bike, whereas with the Remedy, you can ride it as a 150mm bike, or set it up to ride like a 120mm bike. I have to tell all of you that I got the amazing price listed below because I bought it on clearance in September - MSRP on this thing is $5400 otherwise.
In terms of ride quality, this is an extremely plush set-up in terms of absorbing hits. Compared to the Norco Sight, this bike soaks everything up and the Active Braking Pivot (ABP) is extremely noticeable and definitely improves the ride. I have my for and shock set to Trail and have only on 2 occasions use the Climb setting on extended (4km) fire road climbs. This bike's pedaling platform is extremely efficient on climbs - I have cleared section of trail on this bike that I was never able to clear on my hardtail. The only downside to climbing on this bike is the steering can get sketchy on steep climbs - you'll have to move up on the saddle to ensure the front wheel can bite enough to steer.
For downhill and all other situations, this bike is super responsive and flickable as it is a 26er. The Sight is impressive also with its tweener size but I personally prefer this bikes handling. At 28.8lbs with XT pedals for 18.5" frame, it's definitely not the Superfly 100, but the tradeoff is a bike that can handle anything you throw at it. This bike will likely be too much bike if all you ride is x-country type trails. To take full advantage you have to ride technical singletrack with downhills that would scare hardtail riders.
I would definitely recommend this bike to anyone - especially if you pick it up at the end of the season on clearance!!

Strengths: Excellent suspension design with the full-floater, APB and Fox DCRV shock (mine is pre-CTD). It works exactly as advertised, zero brake jack and super plush. Very nimble and playful; it really likes to wheelie, pump and jump around the trail. It can also just plow through chunk, if that's your riding style.
Bontrager seat and cockpit is surprisingly good quality.
Weaknesses: Elixer 3 brakes = worst brakes ever. Swapped them before my first ride.
Bonty/Deore wheels were OK. I really liked the Bonty rim strip for tubeless setup. On the other hand, the Deore hub was toast in less than 60 days. They are no longer on the bike.
The 7 model comes with the QR rear axle vs 12x142 and its about $120 to buy the upgrade parts.
Deore shifters are serviceable but not noteworthy.
Suspension bobs a bit more than a DW/Maestro/VPP bike
Trek killed the 26" version in exchange for a 27.5"

I absolutely love the way this bike rolls down the trail. No way to describe it other than FUN!

Strengths: Trek Warranty!!! Cracked my first one in two weeks which was a 9.8 and Trek sent me a 9.9!!! Couldn't believe it! Climbs Great! Descends very well and the addition of the dropper post will make you fly faster downhill with on the fly adjustments. Solid bike and it will put a smile on your face from ear to ear!
Weaknesses: None really to speak of, this bike is solid as a rock. Even after 2 years very quiet no creaks frame wise. If I were to get picky about it maybe the paint could have been better on the 9.9 Don't get me wrong it is a beautiful paint job but the clear coat was noticeably light in one area.
Bottom Line:
This bike just ROCKS! I hit stuff that I never did before! Very confident descender on downhill drop the post and you can just warp speed it! It handles big hits pretty good too. Climbs extremely well too like lesser travel bikes. I did change out the bars and stem because on steep stuff it felt a little sketchy. I do wish it came with 160 mm travel on the front for out west trails. The rear travel seems bottomless and handles 4-5 foot drops good and jumps well. That's about my current limit! Here in NC 150 MM travel is fine. On tight twisty trails this bike carves it up like a race bike. Just amazing the trail versatility and go anywhere ability of this bike! You will love this bike!
I am glad Trek did address head tube steepness on the 2012 and newer frames with the new adjustable link which gives you 5 degrees more. May need to upgrade!
The 2.35 Bontis XR4 tires bog it down a bit but provide great grip. With 2.1's it's a lot snappier. I swap tires and seat posts quite a bit depending where I ride. It tipped the scale at 26.5 lbs with 2.1 on the rims and no dropper post.

Spare parts are also really hard to get hold off, the headset requires e2 bearings, which are very hard to get in Australia and DRCV fork bottomed out really fast and you had to pump up the pressure in the spring to stop it diving when braking hard, this meant you couldn't get through the whole travel when you wanted it.

Light, nimble & strong. This bike is confidence inspiring.
Treks massive R&D budget is packed into this rig and it pays off.
Amazing bike for the $$ and if you feel so inclined a few custome upgrades and its easy to shave weight.
I will concede that the "fit" of a bike is paramount so some of the other frames I have mentioned may well fit another rider better than a Remedy.
The new Fuels also took several leaps forward when they went to the frames with the EVO link, ABP, and Full floater.
New bontrager tires preform beautifully (wide, fast & super grippy), just pick the combo that fits your ride style.

don't try a 35/1.4 on a FF !
Many of your photographs like this one :
I can easily shoot the same or better with my 150 €uro Zoom P&S !

My point exactly, I don't 35 1.4, but I do have 85 1.4 and a 35 2.0 but whatever

That was shot on ff Nikon btw.

In his case, maintaining a sufficient depth-of-field was a necessary factor for him. So, roughly, f2.8 on the EM-1 = f4 on the D7100 = f5.6 on the 6D to maintain equivalent depth of field.
So use the smaller aperture and just boost the ISO on the larger-sensored cameras. You will have the same amount of noise, and the same results.-- hide signature --
That is exactly my point. For a guy who doesn't care about thin depth-of-field, but just wants to maintain the same depth of field in his shooting, the large sensored cameras do not hold a great advantage and they are expensive and bulky/heavy.
Now the EM-1 wasn't inexpensive, but together with the 12-40/2.8, offered my friend the best combination of fast autofocusing, low-light ability, and image quality.
The OP asked to help him stay with Pentax. So, my response was not to blindly chose the largest sensor, but to evaluate your needs and make a decision based on how you shoot. If you want razor thin depth-of-field or own a giant assortment of existing film lenses, and want the very best possible image quality and you are willing to pay the big bucks, then choosing a full frame camera may be a good decision.
In my friend's case, he wanted decent low noise and dynamic range, fast AFS autofocusing in low light (EV 7 or 8), one fast normal focal length zoom lens that was sharp wide open, and his biggest possible print size he could ever see making was 11x14 inches. I think he made a great choice.
Choosing the biggest sensor is not always the best strategy and that was the point of my post.

Hi Audrious,
With that yellowish cast on the K3 photo, I wonder if the SENt on it was set right.
I'm surprised, as you gear lit includes k30 you make this remark.
As you should be aware Pentax believe the image should represent what your eyes see as such under artificial light they do not correct to the point the cast is daylight but leave some of the original ambiance.
This is another 'adjustable' setting and personally I think Pentax get it right, When shooting under candles I hate that 'shot in midday sun' look every other manufacturer seems to think is reasonable.-- hide signature --
I first saw that with my new smartphone on which the OP's K3 photo looked very yellowish. I do know what and how my K-30 render indoor lighting but I thought that was still too yellowish from "what an indoor lighting condition looks like in my mind".
Now on my 22 in LCD screen the K3's photo do look more natural than the Canon and Nikon.
BTW, the K-30 Auto mode setting will give a warmer than "what it should be appearance".

Parent Participation
Parent participation is highly encouraged in all CYSS programs, and is actually necessary for some activities to be successful. There would not be a Sports program without the dedication of volunteer coaches. Some ways parents participate in child care programs may include eating lunch with their child and participating in various room activities (prior arrangements must be made with your child's teacher). Parent Advisory Boards (PAB's) operate at all the Centers and are open to all parents. Through the PAB, parents provide valuable input to the programs in which their children spend a significant portion of their day. To encourage parent participation, the "Why I'm Needed" (WIN) program allows parents to earn points through volunteering opportunities at the centers, or attending parenting classes through the Family Advocacy Program.
The WIN Program: This is a special program that enables parents to earn up to a 10% discount on their 1st child's monthly child care fees at the CDC or SAC. Parents perform essential tasks for the CDC or SAC and earn a specific number of discount points. Each discount point is worth 1 percent each up to a maximum of 10 discount points which is 10%. These discount points may then be applied towards child care fee. Check with the CDC or SAC front desk staff for more information.
Eligibility to use CYSS programs include active duty military personnel, DoD civilian personnel, reservists on active duty for 72 hours or more, and DoD contractors working on Fort Belvoir. Military retirees are only eligible for our sports programs and our free Middle School and Teens program. Because child care programs are offered for the sponsor to report to work so that the Army can meet its mission, eligibility to use Fort Belvoir child care programs ends upon End Term of Service (ETS) of sponsor, termination of sponsor's DoD employment or DoD contractor's employment on Fort Belvoir. A thirty-day grace period is authorized to find alternate care. All patrons must register with Parent Central Services (Resource and Referral - Central Registration). The Parent Central Services (Resource and Referral - Central Registration) phone numbers are (703) 805-1908.

This dog is being advertised as a perfect service dog candidate. I don't care how awesome his temperament is, his structure is AWFUL and he's just asking for a couple torn ACLs. When I pointed this out, the rescue's reply was "A solid regular diet and exercise is all Si needs to make sure doesn't have ACL problems."
BULLSHIT. If this dog is trained as a service dog, I GUARANTEE you he will have to be retired early due to torn ACLs. Or, if he's very unlucky, he'll have to work through the pain of torn ACLs and not get retired when it happens. No diet in the world is going to change how straight his legs are.
I HATE that rescues try to push dogs for uses they're not right for. Ugh. Why not just place him as an awesome pet? Why push him as a service dog candidate?
Do they perhaps mean a therapy dog? Some rescues do not seem to understand the difference between the two.
I am in such a pissy mood right now. I woke up to over a foot of snow on my car, which is awesome. I love snow, but Tyler did not tell me so I woke up to surprise and then while I was cleaning off my car my drivers side whipper blade snapped off. I tried to change the passenger one to the drivers side, but it won't budge. I called into work to tell them I am going to be late because I have to go buy a new blade and the boss told me the roads are just horrible and its not worth coming into work.
Gah, I am just mad that because of this I am not making it into work. I do not like missing work. But at least I get to craft all day and cuddle the puppies.
I'm definitely sick. I haven't been sick since I stopped eating processed foods and gluten. Thursday night my throat started to hurt... I didn't sleep well that night because it hurt so bad. Friday, thankfully, the throat stopped hurting and my nose started to run constantly. Saturday I wasn't feeling much better. Sunday I was out running errands and had to pull over into Target's parking lot and spit out the mouthful of mucus I had just coughed up. This morning it's all kinds of mucus and lots of very, very painful coughing.
I guess I should be glad I skipped the sinus infection and went straight to bronchitis???

Crime Beat, February 27
Test drive ends in motor vehicle charge
A man test driving a car ditched an automobile dealership employee at a convenience store, according to a probable cause affidavit.
Perry Joe Moore, 58, address unknown, was charged with unauthorized use of a motor vehicle.
Moore's bond was set at $4,000 and he was being held Tuesday in the Wichita County Jail.
The affidavit gives the following details:
About 4 p.m. Monday, the Electra Police Department got a call from Patterson's Auto in Wichita Falls that a man went on a test drive and didn't return the car.
The man took a 2007 Dodge Magnum for a test drive, accompanied by a Patterson's employee about 1:45 p.m. The employee said he needed to use the restroom; the driver let him out at the store then drove away when the employee got out.
At 4:17 p.m., Electra police went to an address in the 400 block of Avenue B and found the 2007 Dodge in the front yard.
Police knocked on the door and arrested the man who answered.
Police: Man charged in aggravated assault
Police arrested a man they say tried to stab someone, according to a probable cause affidavit.
Toby Edward Green, 17, address unknown, was charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
Green's bond was set at $25,000 and he was held Tuesday in the Wichita County Jail.
The affidavit gives the following details:
About 3 p.m. Monday, police were called to the 900 block of S. Wall to investigate a fight.
The victim told police someone started cussing at him and threw a rock at a car. The victim said he was inside a home when someone ran inside saying two people were causing trouble.
The victim heard someone outside kicking his fence and went out to confront the suspect.
The victim said the man tried to stab him.
The following was taken from Wichita County court records:
Tawanna Lynn Casey, aka Tawanna Bell, 33, 5130 Professional Drive No. 120, pleaded guilty to endangering a child and two counts of possession of a controlled substance in connection with an incident Oct. 4. Casey received five years deferred adjudication on the endangerment count and 10 years deferred adjudication and $750 fine for each drug count Friday.
Deshun Keith Hall, 24, 109 Tulsa, pleaded guilty to evading arrest/detention using a vehicle in connection with an incident May 8. Hall received nine months in a state jail Friday.
Cheryl Denise Jones, 44, 808 Linda, pleaded guilty to two counts of theft under $1,500-repetition in connection with incidents Dec. 13, 2006, and Sept. 3, 2007. Jones received 10 months in the Wichita County Jail for each count Friday.

Jared Lee Lougner walked around his Pima Community College campus last September with a video camera and a personality that was losing all touch with reality," RadarOnline.com has learned.
The accused shooter in last week's Tucson, Arizona rampage narrated his tour of the school, and it is as frightening as it is eerie.
PHOTOS: The Six Victims In Tucson Shooting
He posted it on YouTube, and once school officials became aware of the video, they immediately suspended Loughner.
You can see it here on RadarOnline.com.
In between taping the exterior of buildings, the door to the campus police office and some passersby, Loughner comments that "I'm in a terrible place."
He accuses Pima Community College of being a "genocide" school and stifling free speech.

"All the teachers that you have are being paid illegally and have illegal authority over the Constitution of the United States under the 1st Amendment," he says. "This is genocide in America. Thank you. This is Jared from Pima College."
School officials released the video Saturday.
Loughner stands accused of murder, attempted murder, and the attempted assassination of a member of Congress. His primary target was Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords, who was shot in the head but is defying the odds with her survival.

Uzbekistan has become one of the most attractive places in the world for mountain skiing and snowboarding on virgin snow. As the enthusiasts of Free-Ridebelieve, for this type of activity the mountains of the WesternTien-Shan, situated only withinone-hourdrive from the capital of Uzbekistan — City of Tashkent, have exclusively favorable combination of snow blanket quality, country topography and climate conditions.
The Free-Ridein Uzbekistan is one of the youngest but fast developing types of recreation. The resort area in the mountain region has become the center of such recreation, and for its picturesque landscapes it was named "Uzbek Switzerland". This region represents the vast territory within the National park, whose unique nature characteristics are well known in the world. On the territory of the park itself and adjoining areas located on the territories of the neighboring states, there has been implemented the trans-boundaryproject on the preservation of biodiversity. The project is sponsored by Global Ecological Fund, European Union and the World Bank.
Thanks to the efforts of the country's government, "Uzbek Switzerland" turns into big center of international tourism. Over the last few years there appeared here resort complexes with modern hotels, cozy cottages, sport entertainment structures, swimming pools, bars and restaurants. For the snowboarders and alpine skiers there were builtchair-liftsand ski-lifts. For those who fancy free ride there were constructed helicopter grounds.
The most popular are three resorts situated in the environs of the picturesque artificial lake Charvak: "Charvak Oromgohi", "Chimgan Oromgohi" and "Beldersay Oromgohi". In translation from Uzbek the word "oromgoh" means "making healthier". And this word was used not accidentally — the purpose of all three resorts is to use healthy mountain climate for health rehabilitation and good rest.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has proposed its plan to reduce carbon emissions from the nation's power plants by 30% below 2005 levels.
Stacks rise from the coal-fired Salem Harbor Station power plant, which closed on June 1, 2014.
EPA's Clean Power Plan would, for the first time, provide federal regulation of power plants' carbon emissions. EPA envisions a collaborative process through which federal limits are established for each state, but where states have the flexibility to identify their own path forward using either current or new electricity production and pollution control policies to meet the goals of the proposed program. Each state's carbon emissions limit would be stated as a rate of allowable pounds of carbon emissions per megawatt-hour of electric energy generated. EPA would set these rates based on a case-by-case evaluation of each state's energy mix -- including its portfolio of generation resources -- and EPA's evaluation of opportunities to reduce carbon emissions.
States would then be free to design a program to achieve those rates in a way that makes the most sense for each state's unique situation, combining diverse fuels, energy efficiency and demand-side management to create a tailored solution for each state. EPA also envisions collaboration among states, including the development of multi-state plans. Some states have already organized collaborative programs to reduce the electric power sector's carbon emissions -- for example, the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) program in the eastern states.
If adopted, EPA's rule would require states to submit their plans to EPA for review in June 2016. But EPA's plan is not yet final. It first faces public comment through the summer, including public hearings during the week of July 28 in Denver, Atlanta, Washington, DC and Pittsburgh. EPA anticipates finalizing its standards in June 2015.
Additional materials, including fact sheets and a regulatory analysis, are posted on the EPA's Clean Power Plan program website.

The performance of solid pharmaceutical products is normally assessed using the pharmacopeial in vitro dissolution test. The dissolution test is used both to ensure quality and consistency of investigational clinical and registered commercial materials, and as a tool to assist in the development of new products.
In recent years there has been considerable interest in exploring how in vitro dissolution testing can be used more effectively in the product development phase. An example of this is using more biorelevant dissolution media, such as simulated gastric fluid, with the aim of improving the connection between the product behavior observed in vitro and that in vivo. The use of clinically relevant dissolution tests has been emphasized as part of the Quality by Design (QbD) initiative, for example, in the 2006 workshop organized by the American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists.1 It was noted at the workshop that different dissolution methods may be used for product development and quality control purposes, and that new measurement technology can be valuable in the development phase. For example, the use of fiber optics and in situ particle size measurement can provide information about the mechanism and kinetics of drug release. Such mechanistic information can help to shift the dissolution paradigm from the current data-driven approach toward a knowledge-driven perspective. Mechanistic performance knowledge will help with generating a deeper understanding of the critical product quality attributes and process parameters.
This article discusses UV imaging, a new technology that has been designed to improve our understanding of the kinetics and mechanism of drug substance release.2 The theories covering the dissolution of pure substances all stress the importance of the solution concentration gradient that exists between the solid/solution interface and the bulk solution.3 However, while this concentration gradient is central to theory, detailed experimental verification of its applicability to pharmaceutical substances has been difficult until now. The approach described here relies on the fact that most pharmaceutical drug substances contain a UV chromophore, and that UV absorbance is a sensitive and robust measurement approach. The use of an imaging detector, with spatially resolved absorbance and thus concentration data, can give information on the concentration gradient and how it changes with experimental conditions.
Figure 1 - Photograph of ActiPix SDI 300 dissolution imaging system.
Figure 2 - Diagram of ActiPix SDI 300 dissolution system showing the sample holder, dissolution flow cell, and UV imaging detector array.
Figure 3 - Diagram of ActiPix SDI 300 dissolution imaging system showing the principle of imaging the spatially resolved local solution concentration. The solution concentration is highest closest to the surface of the dissolving solid, and this will be reflected in the greater level of UV absorbance (shown in red in the false color image).
The ActiPix SDI 300 (Paraytec Ltd., York, U.K.) comprises a sample flow cell, syringe pump, UV lamp and detector, and control and data analysis system. The system is shown in the photograph in Figure 1 and the schematics in Figures 2 and 3. The system uses a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) image sensor (7 mm × 9 mm made up of 1.3 million 7 × 7 μm pixels) for recording light transmission through the flow cell (Figure 2). A broad-spectrum pulsed xenon lamp (PerkinElmer, Waltham, MA) provides flashes of light that are synchronized so that light does not strike the pixels during the detector readout phase (Figure 3). Because a broad-spectrum lamp is used, each pulse is focused onto a narrow bandpass filter (10 nm), and is then passed through a diffuser before being refocused onto a 2-mm round UV fiber optic. The termination end of the fiber optic splays the fibers into a 9-mm-wide single line to effectively illuminate the entire width and most of the height of the image sensor. The lamp pulse rate is determined by the data transfer rate from the sensor to the PC, based on the number of rows and level of binning selected. The binning level is chosen to favor either spatial resolution or sensitivity, using a range of 1 × 1 (maximum resolution) up to 10 × 1. Imaging rates vary from 0.5 up to about 8 Hz, with a typical dissolution experiment using around 2 Hz. The viewing area and binning are selected by the operator. Using 0.7 Mpixels, the data file sizes are typically hundreds of MBs, but by subsampling images it is also possible to maintain reasonable file sizes in extended dissolution experiments.
Once the lamp level has been adjusted to avoid saturation, the first images collected are dark values or electronic noise. An average for every pixel is collected over a 10-sec period. The average dark value is then subtracted from each background value to negate contributions from electronic noise. The subsequent 10 sec are used to collect the background intensities from the buffer contained within the flow cell.
The intensity at each pixel is converted into an absolute absorbance by first subtracting the dark values and then applying the standard log equation from the initial transmission (I0) and the sample transmission (I). The absorbance values for each pixel in the selected viewing area create a 2-D image, and the images collected for the duration of the experiment are used to create a movie. Thus, a high-resolution 2-D movie of UV absorbance is captured that provides a detailed view of the dissolution process at the solid–liquid interface. Applying proprietary software tools then allows extraction of unique and common results of use to the pharmaceutical analyst.
The flow cell has been specially designed to provide laminar flow across the surface of a compacted active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) powder. With the sealed rectangular quartz tube pressed against the imager face, a complete side view of the powder surface, including 3 mm up and downstream and 3 mm above, comprises the total viewing area (Figure 2). The laminar parabolic flow is parallel to the image sensor but also passes across the powder with a surface velocity near zero. The API powder is compacted inside a stainless steel tube (2.0 mm i.d.) using a miniature press and torque screwdriver, and is held exactly under the fiber optic in the center of the quartz tube. Buffer is pumped into one side of the flow cell through a small orifice and is then allowed to expand in the parabolic reaction zone in order to provide laminar flow. The entire quartz tube assembly sits inside a light-tight cartridge that positions the flow cell directly over the image sensor. The heart of the flow cell is illuminated by UV light from the lamp brought in by the fiber optic. Volumetric flow originates from an accurate, stable syringe pump and typically uses a 20-mL syringe. Multiple flow rate steps are controlled using the software to synchronize the pump and the UV images. Thus, data required for determining results such as the intrinsic dissolution rate are readily available; this is discussed in more detail below.
Use of the system is illustrated by examining the dissolution behavior of a highly soluble base, the β-blocker atenolol, and a poorly soluble acid, the diuretic furosemide.
Figure 4 - False color image showing the dissolution of atenolol. The solid atenolol sample is in the center of the image, and the buffer flow is from left to right. The region of highest UV absorbance (hence highest solution concentration) is shown in red and the region of lowest absorbance is in blue.
Atenolol was packed with a torque setting of 20 cNm; Figure 4 shows the UV image produced using a pH 4.5 phosphate buffer at a flow rate of 0.6 mL/min and a 254-nm filter. The results are presented as a false color image with the areas of high UV absorbance shown in red and those of low UV absorbance in pale blue. Figure 4 shows the tube containing the compact of solid atenolol in the bottom center of the image. Above the tube and to the right, the bright red region is the plume of concentrated atenolol solution being transported away by the flowing buffer. Above the bright red and yellow regions is a pale blue area that is a result of dilute atenolol solution. The dilute atenolol solution diffuses further into the bulk buffer solution as the downstream distance increases. The left-hand side of the image is upstream of the solid atenolol and shows the inflow of fresh phosphate buffer from the syringe pump (i.e., no UV absorbance).
Figure 5 - False color image showing the dissolution of furosemide. The image shows the position of the solid furosemide sample, the UV absorbance reference zone, and the three solution absorbance measurement zones. Furosemide is much less soluble than atenolol, and this is reflected in the fact that significant solution concentrations are only detectable close to the surface of the solid (compare with Figure 4).
Furosemide was packed with a torque setting of 80 cNm; Figure 5 shows the UV image produced at 280 nm using a pH 2.0 phosphate buffer at a flow rate of 2.0 mL/ min. At pH 2.0, furosemide is uncharged and thus has a very low solubility in aqueous buffers. The results are again shown as a false color image with the highest absorbance depicted in red and orange. The region of high furosemide concentration is limited to the area very close to the sample surface and immediately downstream of the sample cup. This is in sharp contrast to the results for atenolol, where the much larger region of high UV absorbance reflects the much higher solubility of atenolol. The solution absorbance profile in the z-dimension (i.e., perpendicular to the flow) can be extracted from different locations in the 2-D image using the three measurement bars shown in Figure 5.
Figure 6 - UV absorbance gradient of furosemide as a function of varying buffer flow rate in the range 0.1–2.0 mL/min. The absorbance profile is taken from measurement zone 1 in Figure 5, and shows that the solution concentration is low except for close to the sample surface.
The profiles produced from the left-hand bar (i.e., directly above the dissolving solid) at a range of flow rates are shown in Figure 6. It can be seen that the absorbance (hence concentration) decreases rapidly as we move into the bulk solution perpendicular to the direction of buffer flow. The profile obtained is in accordance with the general expectations from convective-diffusion theory.3 As the flow rate is dropped, the impact of diffusion becomes more significant and furosemide is able to spread out further into the bulk solution.
Standard intrinsic dissolution rate values of (mass/time/area) are easily calculated from the volumetric flow rate and the absorbance intensities in measurement zone 3 (see Figure 5). Once the parameters for molecular weight and extinction coefficient are entered, mass is calculated by applying Beer's law to obtain mass per volume. The known volumetric flow rate is multiplied by the concentration to give mass/min. This result is then divided by the known sample surface area to give mass/min/area (mg/min/cm2). Furthermore, since the flow regime in this apparatus is laminar, the velocity through the measurement zone is faster at the center of the flow stream than at the surface wall (parabolic flow). To adjust for this difference, each row of pixels in the measurement zone is corrected for transit rate through the zone based on the known volumetric flow rate to provide an accurate mass transport through the measurement zone at all heights away from the surface.
UV imaging can provide detailed insight into the convective-transport processes that occur during the dissolution of pure drug substances. In particular, UV imaging offers information about the concentration gradient produced near the surface of the dissolving substance. The technique shows how this concentration gradient changes with spatial location, and how it is altered by the flow rate of the dissolution buffer.

Social Security Hearings Backlog Falls to Lowest Level Since 2005
That's the headline of a news release today from the Social Security Administration. I applaud the agency for making strides in reducing the inexcusable backlog and waiting times for Social Security disability decisions. I do have a concern though. Recently we have noticed that some of our clients' disability cases are being pulled, seemingly at random, from the normal process and having early decisions rendered. This is happening to maybe 20% of our cases.
While this is certainly good news for those clients fortunate enough to have their cases decided early, we can't figure out a pattern. That makes us wonder if perhaps some cases are pulled early just so the average processing time decreases. That's a cynical view to take, and I have no evidence this is actually happening. Still, it does make us wonder.
Here is the News Release....

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Welcome to Don Dion's "ETF Winners and Losers." Be sure to stop by throughout the week to find out which ETFs are gaining or losing.
WinnersiPath Dow Jones UBS Grains Subindex Total Return ETN (JJG) 6.3%
Grain futures are pushing higher and helping funds like JJG and the Teucrium Corn ETF (CORN) ascend to top spots on the winners list. These gains are welcomed for both funds; both have suffered multi-day strings of losses as China growth fears have been thrust into the spotlight.
Market Vectors India Small Cap ETF (SCIF) 3.8%
It has been a rough couple of weeks for the fast-moving small-cap India ETF. As questions are directed toward the emerging world, nations like India have been cast in uncertainty. SCIF, meanwhile, has witnessed a steady downturn, revising levels last seen in late January. Friday's strength, however, has helped to quash this losing streak. Looking to the start of the second quarter, it will be interesting to see if the fund can regain its footing.iShares MSCI Sweden Index Fund (EWD) 2.6% Three days of losses pushed the Sweden ETF to its 50-day moving average. This level has shown to be a point of support since the start of the year. Europe's sovereign debt crisis has taken a backseat to China in recent weeks. However, the region's macroeconomic trials will likely continue to impact sentiment. I am still not comfortable trekking into this corner of the developed world.

DCs to implement relief measures immediately
Each taluk to get Rs. 10 lakh for setting up goshalas to take care of cattle
Government to provide 50 per cent subsidy on fodder cost to farmers in drought-hit taluks
Bangalore: Eighty six of the 176 taluks in the State have been declared drought-hit and the State Government has directed the deputy commissioners to immediately implement drought-relief measures.
The worst affected is Hyderabad-Karnatak region. Ten taluks in Gulbarga district have been classified as drought hit.
Minister for Revenue G. Karunakara Reddy and Minister for Agriculture S.A. Ravindranath, both of who reviewed the drought situation in the Secretariat on Monday, told presspersons that the drought-hit taluks were in 20 of the 29 districts of the State. Directions had been issued to set up goshalas to take care of cattle and to provide drinking water through tankers.
Each taluk would be given Rs. 10 lakh for setting up goshalas and to provide fodder to the cattle. The Government would also provide a 50 per cent subsidy on fodder cost to the farmers in the drought-hit taluks. The Department of Rural Development and Panchayat Raj would undertake sinking of borewells immediately.
Nine districts had received very good rain during the south-west monsoon, particularly the taluks in the districts of Shimoga, Dakshin Kannada, Uttara Kannada and Chikmagalur. Another notable feature was that all the irrigation and hydel reservoirs in the State had received good inflows in their respective catchment areas. It was only rain-fed agriculture which had been hard hit.
Mr. Karunakara Reddy said normal rainfall during the period should have been 543 mm and the State had received 529 mm (a shortfall of 3 per cent). While the target area for cultivation during the kharif season was 72 lakh hectares, sowing has been completed only in 52 lakh hectares.
The Revenue Minister said all the deputy commissioners had been asked to compile reports on the drought situation and send them to the State headquarters within a week.
An overall report on the drought situation would be prepared and then a memorandum would be made to present to the Centre. "Chief Minister B.S. Yeddyurappa and I will go to the Centre and submit the memorandum. We have so far released Rs. 16 crore to the districts and the deputy commissioners have been asked to utilise from the Rs. 150 crore available with them," Mr. Reddy said.
A cloud-seeding committee, comprising senior officials of the Agriculture, Finance and Revenue departments, had been constituted to suggest the feasibility of cloud-seeding and the areas where it could be undertaken. The committee is expected to submit its report in three days.
The Union Government had also approved installation of a Doplar Radar System at Bijapur at a cost of Rs. 7 crore.
This pilot project is a scientific study on cloud-seeding and if successful, it will be implemented across the State. The radar system is effective for a radius of 100 km.
The 20 drought-hit districts are: Bidar, Gulbarga, Mysore, Mandya , Bangalore Urban, Bangalore Rural, Ramanagaram, Kolar, Chickaballapur, Tumkur, Chitradurga, Davangere, Chamarajanagar, Bellary, Koppal, Raichur, Belgaum, Bagalkot, Bijapur and Gadag.

© Copyright 2015 Clayton News Daily
By Daniel email@example.com Sounding tired and hoarse, the day after the primary election, sheriff candidate Kem Kimbrough was working to marshal support and move toward a run-off race against the sitting sheriff. "It's already in motion," Kimbrough said. "We're at 0-0, starting today, and we're starting back up." In a five-man race for the sheriff's office, Kimbrough, an attorney and one-time jail commander, pulled ahead of the others challenging Sheriff Victor Hill in the Democratic primary. According to the final, unofficial results, available Wednesday, Kimbrough garnered 26.5 percent of the vote. Hill, seeking re-election to a second term, had 49 percent of the vote, but couldn't quite come up with the majority needed to avoid a runoff. With 58 of the 60 precincts reporting Tuesday night, and the votes from Hill strongholds in North Clayton counted, it looked like the sheriff had his victory, with 52 percent. When the 59th precinct was counted, though, the early and absentee voters brought Hill's numbers down by three percent, throwing the race into an Aug. 5 runoff. Kimbrough wasn't quite ready to concede, when he saw the sheriff's lead at midnight, and seemed to be on the edge of frustration and resignation, but was holding out hope. When the final ballots were counted, he said Wednesday, "everybody was just sort of whip-sawed back into euphoria." The sheriff could not be reached for comment, despite repeated calls to his cell phone and home phone on Tuesday and Wednesday. Two of the contenders who sought to unseat Hill threw their support behind Kimbrough on Wednesday. Garland Watkins and Sherman Lemon -- both busy finding and pulling up their campaign signs -- said they would work to get Kimbrough elected. "Whatever it requires," said Lemon, "I'm going to throw my support behind him, because we have to get Hill out of there." The other Democratic contender, Ernest Strozier, had not spoken to the Kimbrough campaign or made any gestures of support, as of Wednesday evening. Watkins said he's confident Kimbrough will win the runoff in three weeks, because more Democrats voted for a challenger than for the incumbent. Hill had 12,900 votes, according to the available results, and the other four men had a combined total of 13,397. "We had the division of four candidates," said Watkins, who ended the night with a little more than 14 percent of the vote. "Had just one candidate run against him, he'd be out of there." Kimbrough said his campaign had begun work to bring all the anti-Hill voters into his election effort, but said he is planning, too, to reach out to the voters who supported the sitting sheriff. According to Kimbrough, Hill got a lot of support from segments of the county that feel ignored by other officials and feel besieged by crime. While property owners and people who pay a lot in taxes, like those on the southern end of the county, worry about lawsuits and allegations of gross, financial mismanagement, Kimbrough said many renters and senior citizens just want someone who declares war on drug dealers, gambling dens and rumored prostitution rings. "They're interested in hearing somebody talk tough," Kimbrough said. "They feel neglected. Victor can swoop and make a difference once or twice and he's a hero ... you've got to 'give the devil his due,' as they say." Kimbrough said he will work to communicate with those more than 12,000 Hill supporters, telling them he understands their concerns, and as sheriff, he would not abandon them or neglect them. "I have the experience, and the education, and the consensus-building history to do what you want done, even better than you've got now," he said.
