Slang is the use of informal words and expressions that are not considered standard in the speaker's language or dialect but are considered acceptable in certain social settings. Slang expressions may act as euphemisms and may be used as a means of identifying with one's peers.
Obviously it should be your priority to know the correct or proper way of expressing yourself in the Spanish language, but becoming familiar with the most popular slang expressions is equally as important in order to communicate effectively (understand others and be understood). At Habla Ya Spanish Schools you will be introduced and exposed to slang expressions from all over Latin America (and you will be told what is slang and what is the "proper way") because at the end of the day, the purpose of language is communication and without knowing the most common slang expressions, you simply won't be able to communicate with everyone.
Kafu Banton âHabla Como Panaâ (speak like a Panamanian) video
Now, having set the record straight, I have to say that personally I LOVE Panamanian Spanish. Although Iâm not a perfect Spanish speaker (I canât roll my rrâs), Iâm pretty good at Panamanian Spanish. Iâve discovered three tricks to help any "gringo" out who wants their Spanish to be more "street wise":
- Learn the art of dropping the âsâ on words ending in âsâ. For example, vamos = vamoâ (âletâs goâ)
- Exchange the ending â-adoâ with â-aoâ. For example, cuidado = cuidao (âbe carefulâ).
- Learn the street vocab!!
Panamanians are extremely respectful to westerners, affectionately called âgringosâ. Panamanians arenât racists, but if your skin is white and you have any hair color that is not black and eyes that are anything but dark brown, then you will be lovingly referred to as a gringo/a, no matter where you're from (even if you're a Panamanian you can easily be mistaken for a gringo).
If you don't look like a local, you're a gringo. It's just how it is. Not a lot you can do about it unless you learn real Panamanian Spanish. And if you're British, please don't take offense: even though you're not from the USA, in Panama you're a gringo too!
BUT if you want real respect as a gringo in Panamá, you need to learn the street lingo.
Now, donât start off too fast! Youâve gotta get basic Spanish under your belt first and make some friends before you just start spitting out these fascinating words. Otherwise you could easily say something that you didnât mean and find yourself in a whole lot of trouble...
I've heard of people trying to order trout at a restaurant by saying: "quiero chucha" (more on this particular word below), when in fact they should have been saying: "quiero trucha". Be careful with what you say!
Iâm going to break this into steps for you, from Beginner to Advanced, because thatâs really the best way to learn any new thing, right? Stick with me and youâll be invited to all the cool parties.
LEVEL 1 - Beginnerâs Slang
- Vaina (vine-a): This is a noun that means âthingâ. Itâs used to refer to any sort of thing that you donât want to outright label (either because you donât know what the thing is, you want to keep it a secret, or youâre just too lazy to think about the correct word). Pásame la vaina. Pass me that thing. ¿Dónde está la vaina? Where is the thing?
- ¿Qué cosa? (kay co-sa): This is a question which means âwhat?â Itâs more common to say than the polite â¿Cómo?â or the outright â¿Qué?â (which is kind-of rude and aggressive).
- Joven (ho-ven): This is a noun that is used to refer to anyone that you are trying to get their attention and you donât know their name. Joven translate to "young person" and thus is used mainly to refer to young people. Joven, ¿me podrÃa dar un vaso de agua? Excuse me waiter, could you please get me a glass of water? Joven, ¿está en la fila usted? Excuse me miss, are you in this line?
- Dale pues (dah-lay pwace): This is a phrase that means âGo for itâ or "OK". Itâs very commonly used and is super Panamanian. Person 1: Vamos pal cine. Person 2: Dale pues. Let's go to the movies. Let's do it.
- Qué sopá (kay so-pa, the stress/accent is on the a): This can be a question or a phrase which means âWhatâs upâ. Probably Panamanians wonât take you seriously when you say this but they will laugh and appreciate that you are using their slang. It can be used in casual situations or when angry. Hey ¿qué sopa loco? Todo cool. Hey whatâs up man? Nothing, all good. Sopá is actually pasó reversed and many other slang expressions are normal words reversed such as mopri wich is primo (cousin) reversed.
LEVEL 2 - Intermediate Slang
- Chuleta (chew-le-tah): This is an interjection that means, âShoot!â or âDamn!â. Used when in shock or disappointed. ¡Chuleta! ¡Mi salsa se está quemando! Shoot! My sauce is burning! ¡Chuleta! Bocas perdió de nuevo. Damn! The Bocas baseball team lost again.
- Chévere (chev-re): This is an adjective that means âcoolâ. When you want to comment that something is really cool or nice or great, you can say, â¡Qué chevere!â How cool! or Thatâs great!
- Offi (o-fi): This is an adjective that means âok, cool, yesâ. ¿Está bien si regreso mañana? Offi. Is it ok if I come back tomorrow? Sure.
- Pelao (pe-lau): This is a noun that means âdudeâ. Itâs used to refer to any guy in a casual situation. Ages 18 - 40. Younger is âpelaitoâ, older is âviejoâ. ¿Dónde está ese pelao? Whereâs that dude?
- Bastante (bas-stahn-te) and Demasiado (dim-ahsi-ado): Bastante is an adjective that means âlots, tonsâ. Demasiado is the next level up and means âtoo muchâ. Hay bastante arroz. Es demasiado. There is a lot of rice. Itâs too/so much.
LEVEL 3 - Advanced Slang
- Chucha (chew-cha): This is an interjection that means âFuck!â You really shouldn't use this term! It is very derogatory because it also means a womanâs vagina (although many people who use it don´t know what it really means). Some men frequently use it, or versions of it (chuchi, chuzo). Itâs frequently expressed when someone is pissed off, disappointed or shocked.
- De repente (de reh-pen-teh): This is a phrase that means âPossiblyâ (although literally it means suddenly). There are many phrases that can mean âmaybeâ or âpossiblyâ (tal vez, quizas, es posible) but the phrase âde repenteâ being used like this is strictly Panamanian. ¿Vas con nosotros a cenar mañana? De repente. Are you going to eat dinner with us tomorrow? Maybe. De repente él no llegó porque estaba ocupado. Maybe he didnât show up because he was busy.
- Cabrear (cahb-reh-ar): This is a verb that means âto be angry, fed upâ. It is conjugated normally. It is very commonly used in place of âenojarâ. Me tiene cabreao este man. This guy is really pissing me off. *Remember that many times the -ado ending is replaced with -ao.*
- Pa (pa): This is a preposition that is derived from the Spanish word âparaâ. They just shortened it. Vamos pa'lla. Letâs go over there. *âllaâ in this case is the shortened form of âalláâ.*
- Ahuevao (a-way-vow): This is an adjective that means âstupidâ. It can be used derogatorily, but mainly itâs used casually when someone does something dumb or if someone is being an idiot. ¡¿Estás ahuevao?! Are you stupid man? What are you thinking?
Easy words that were derived from English:
- Fren (frin) = friend
- Pritti (pri-ti) = cool, awesome
- Pamper (pahm-pear) = diapers
- Cornflake (korn-flaek) = cereal
- Macaron (maca-rohn) = pasta
- Ta cool (ta cool) = Itâs cool, itâs ok
- Bucu (boo-coo) = Lots
- Chanti (shahn-ti) = house, crib (shanty)
- Focop (fo-coap) = Fucked up
There are hundreds of slang words in Panama and if you want to find more exhaustive lists check out this Glossary of Panamanian Spanish or do a Google search for Panamanian slang. I hope this article was a helpful start to navigating the exciting world of Panamanian Spanish! Plan your trip now to try out your new skills!

When a trial judge, after a Daubert hearing, decides to exclude the testimony of an expert witness, the party that proffered the expert can decide whether to challenge that decision on appeal. But if the party decides not to appeal, can the expert, out of concern for the impact of the decision on his professional reputation, appeal the ruling on his own?
That was precisely the issue in a case that recently made it all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court. But before we get to the Supreme Court's decision, it is helpful to have some background on how the case found its way there.

Daybreak: That Answers The Stuxnet Question
Plus why there is no freeze paper trail, and more in the news
ŌĆó On Stuxnet, the virus thought to have slowed IranŌĆÖs nuclear weapons program: ŌĆ£In recent weeks officials from Israel have broken into wide smiles when asked whether Israel was behind the attack, or knew who was. American officials have suggested it originated abroad.ŌĆØ Okay then. [NYT]
ŌĆó The United States has likely not yet produced a written freeze extension deal because doing so would set the policy precedent of excluding East Jerusalem from the discussion. [JPost]
ŌĆó A long-range rocket from Gaza landed in the western Negev; there were at least two earlier Qassam firings. No injuries were reported. [Haaretz]
ŌĆó Durban III is to be held in September 2011 in New York, on the tenth anniversary of the notorious Durban I U.N. anti-racism conference. Except it wonŌĆÖt, be as the U.S. doesnŌĆÖt like the idea. [JPost]
ŌĆó After the U.N. proceeded with its more or less annual censure of IranŌĆÖs human rights record, a senior envoy vociferously defended the Islamic RepublicŌĆÖs right to stone criminals and the like. [WSJ]
ŌĆó Egypt bristled at a U.S. call for foreign monitors to oversee its upcoming parliamentary elections. [AP/NYT]

A new perspective from Radiohead's Thom Yorke
Radiohead is at the leading edge of what once used to be known as progressive rock, a band that meshes psychedelic sound experiments and avant-garde electronic textures with rock guitars and the occasional singalong chorus. In the studio, the band has become a mood master, sometimes challenging even its most ardent fans with intricate arrangements.
Paranoia and anxiety course through their sixth album, the recently released "Hail to the Thief," but there's also a sense of universal longing with which anyone, especially any parent, can identify. In songs such as "Sail to the Moon," "I Will" and "Wolf at the Door," Yorke sounds very much like a new father troubled by the sort of world he's bringing his child into (the singer has a 2-year-old son, Noah).
In a phone interview, Yorke gave some insights into the state of Radiohead's world.
Q. There was talk you'd reprise your Grant Park show of 2001 this summer in Chicago.
A. The first time was a great experience, and we were tempted to repeat it, because it had quite an effect on us, playing underneath that skyline. But there's nothing worse than just repeating something that you're really fond of. It was one of the highlights of that year for us, but we wanted to do something different this time. It wasn't a case of someone in Chicago telling us we couldn't do it.
Q. Instead you're playing an amphitheater in southern Wisconsin, which doesn't sound nearly as cool.
A. I'm viewing it like this: Facilities like that are useful for the lights and for the gear. The down sides are many. We were in a position that we tried very, very hard to play in different places on the last tour. And we had this thing that we didn't want any corporate advertising, no corporate boxes, and we wanted to stay as far clear of Clear Channel venues as we could. And we sat down before this tour and found we had a fairly unpleasant decision to make. We were basically told that if we had a problem with corporate advertising we couldn't play anywhere, simple as that. That's normally called blackmail. If we turned around and said, that's it, we quit, the people who suffer would be us and the people who really wanted to see us. The people we don't want to win would've won. We were damned either way.
Q. It's like Pearl Jam trying to buck Ticketmaster, which forced them off the road.
A. Exactly. You have to have a sense of humor about it, or you go crazy. People look at us like we're idiots anyway because we won't license our music for (commercial advertising). You work really hard on a piece of art, something you're really proud of, only to have it associated with something you're not proud of. People who love music have their own associations with that music, which are precious to them, and if they suddenly saw it representing something else, it's robbing them of the music in a way. The payback is never enough to justify that.

As some travelers threaten a nationwide protest today, the head of the Transportation Security Administration said the agency is exploring the feasibility of less-invasive procedures.
However, John Pistole announced no immediate changes, and promoters of National Opt-Out Day hope many holiday travelers will reject screening by advanced-image machines.
Denver International Airport predicts this will be the busiest week in its history but said there will be no special lanes for those who opt out of the advanced-image screening. Those who opt out of the screening will receive a full patdown. Those who refuse both will not be allowed to board their flights.
Pistole acknowledged that some travelers find the current pat-down procedure excessively intrusive. But he reiterated that one of the TSA's primary missions is to ensure that air travel is safe.
"To those who are concerned about them being more thorough, I'm sympathetic to those concerns," Pistole said. "But I'm also trying to be respectful of those who want to have the highest level of confidence, each time you get on a plane, to know that everybody else on that plane has been thoroughly screened just like you have or I have."
The TSA's pat-down procedure became much more rigorous at the start of this month, and some passengers have complained that it is highly invasive and at times humiliating.
"We are exploring ways that they might be less invasive, yet with the same outcome in terms of detection," Pistole said.
A number of air travelers also have been concerned about another method of passenger screening that relies on Advanced Imaging Technology machines that perform what some describe as an electronic strip-search of travelers.
These machines use either a millimeter-wave or backscatter X-ray technology to create a naked image of the traveler that a screener in a private room can examine for hidden weapons or explosives.
DIA has six of the millimeter-wave scanners, and travelers who opt out will be subjected to a thorough pat-down by the TSA, the agency said.
The Denver airport is expecting the busiest week in its history with a projected 1,017,476 travelers through next Monday. The TSA "is fully staffed and prepared for the busy holiday travel season," the agency said in a statement.
"Passengers who decline screening with Advanced Imaging Technology will receive alternative screening, which includes a pat-down," it added. "Passengers who refuse to complete the screening process will not be allowed to fly. In keeping with TSA policies, if a passenger becomes disruptive, our screening officers will seek assistance from local law enforcement."
Amy Marschak said she wants people to descend on the state Capitol at noon today for a "Denver Says No to Full-Body Scanners and Pat-Downs" rally.
"We need our civil liberties back," she said. "You can't say every single person is a suspect."
Pistole said the TSA is working to introduce Automated Target Recognition (ATR) software to scanners that the agency says would display a "computer-generated, generic human image" or "avatar" instead of the actual stripped-down image of the passenger now shown.
Pistole said the TSA hopes to deploy ATR technology sometime next year, but "I'm not going to roll it out until the technology is proven."

Newly signed to Interscope (similar to fellow young phenoms Charles Hamilton and Wale), Drake has gone back to work on his long-awaited So Far Gone mixtape, which has been talked about for months without any release date announced. Being somewhat of a perfectionist, the Toronto native has waited patiently for the best of the best instrumentals to freestyle over; it looks as though this persistence has paid off. Over Kanye West's Say You Will (the opening track on 808s & Heartbreak), Drake decides to Say What's Real, using the opportunity to get a few things off his chest. Unlike similar freestyles from the likes of Tyrese and Trey Songz, Drake completely takes over the beat, leaving nary an Auto-Tuned line from West to be heard. So, what's real?

recently purchased a hunnter 30, 1979 with yanmar ysm12 engine.
prop was replaced with a 3 blade 14/12 prop when the folding prop fell off.
max speed under power is 5 mph but sailing i get 7 -8 mph.
Is this too large a prop for this engine?
Rpms seem low under a load.
I have the same year boat and motor. That is the best speed I get with the motor running.
i read somewhere in these forums that if you can't reach max rpm (or at least 80% max at WOT) under load, your prop is either too large or over pitch.

Not sure if that's the right phrase but what I'm asking is do PCs generally make rolls despite being the subject or object.
For example if my PCs are trying to sneak they roll stealth.
If an adversary is trying to sneak by them does the adversary roll stealth or do the PCs roll perception?
Specifically I'm wondering where in the rulebook this is discussed.
Thanks for any help.

True - I think I will do both - take a look at other boats and then also try a small pin hole to see. I figured worst case water comes out but since the hole I drilled is so tiny I can easily patch it up then haul the boat. Best case no water comes out and I am able to investigate further with a possible larger hole. If it is a leak in the shaft log I would hope that area under the platform is hollow and so long as there is no water in there I can cut out a section of that platform, locate the leak in the shaft log, and seal everything up. But first I am going to start with the tiny hole. Wish me luck

New market exclusivity opportunities emerge for pharmaceutical companies.
In draft guidance released by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA or the Agency) on February 24, 2014, the Agency proposed changes to its exclusivity policy for fixed combination drug products. If implemented, the guidance would provide five years of market exclusivity, rather than three years, to fixed-combination drug products that include both new and previously approved active moieties. The change will have significant effects on life cycle management strategies, corporate partnering activities, and the science around fixed-combination products, breathing new life into the value of some old drugs.
Statutory Five-Year Exclusivity Provision -
Under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), sponsors of certain drug products can receive periods of market exclusivity granted by FDA that are in addition to the patent protection the products might otherwise have. Market exclusivity is intended to encourage innovation by protecting the owners of new drug applications (NDAs) from competition for prescribed periods of time. During these periods of time, FDA is prevented from approving and, in some cases, receiving applications submitted under section 505(b)(2) of the FFDCA and abbreviated new drug applications (ANDAs) that refer to the approved drug substance.

Monetary sovereignty
Monetary sovereignty is the power of the state to exercise exclusive legal control over its currency, by exercise of the following powers:[1]
- Legal tender - the exclusive authority to designate the legal tender forms of payment.
- Issuance and retirement - the exclusive authority to control the issuance and retirement of the legal tender.
Powers and evidence of monetary sovereignty[edit]
Legal tender[edit]
The state alone is empowered to specify the media, called legal tender, which may be offered and must be accepted for the discharge of any debt.
Issuance and retirement[edit]
The state alone is empowered to control, either directly or through institutional and regulatory mechanisms, the issuance and retirement of the legal tender.
Incidence of monetary sovereignty[edit]
Currently, nations such as the United States and Japan, which have autonomous central banks and borrow in their own currencies are said to exercise a high degree of monetary sovereignty. On the other hand, the European Union nations have ceded much of their monetary sovereignty to the European Central Bank.[2]
Other monetarily non-sovereign entities[edit]
|This section needs additional citations for verification. (February 2015)
In the United States, a monetarily sovereign government, there exist many monetarily non-sovereign entities: villages, cities, counties, states, businesses, and individuals. None use their own sovereign currency, so having no sovereign they:
- Do not have the unlimited ability to create their sovereign currency.
- Can run short of currency (unlike monetarily sovereign governments, which cannot).
- Require income in order to pay their bills (unlike monetarily sovereign governments, which require no income). Thus, taxing, borrowing, and austerity (deficit reduction) are not necessary though for political reasons, a monetarily sovereign nation may borrow and levy taxes and enforce austerity.

Here are the steps to connect wireless internet:
1. Turn on and boot to the desktop of your computer. If new devices are found, let your computer finish with installing the drivers for this device.
2. Ensure that you have wireless network devices installed on your computer. To do this, Right Click on the "My Computer" Icon and select "Properties".
3. On the Systems Properties window, select the Hardware tab and click on "Device Manager".
4. Click on the + next to "Network Adapters" and ensure that there is a wireless adapter installed and there is not a "?" or "X" next to it. If there is not, proceed by closing this window and the Systems Properties window.
5. Next, go to the "Start" menu and click on "Control Panel"
6. If you are in "Classic Mode" click on the Wireless Network Setup Wizard.
7. If you are in "Category View" click on "Network & Internet Connections".
8. And select "Wireless Network Setup Wizard"
9. Select "Next"
10. And "next" again.
11. Select "Set up network manually" and click "Next"
12. Then click "Finish"
13. Back in the "Control Panel" Window, select "Network Connections". You will have this select whether in "Classic Mode" or "Category" mode.
14 Right click on the "Wireless Network Connection and" select "Properties".
15. In the "Wireless Connection Properties" window, select the "Wireless Networks" tab. In the window, you should see your wireless network router. If it is not there, click on the "View Wireless Networks" button or, if you know the name of your network, select "Add" below the "Preferred Networks" window.
16. If you selected "Add", enter the network name. Ensure all boxes are UN-checked. Enter your password in both boxes. If your network is not secured, change the "Data Encryption" to "disabled" and select "OK".
16. If you selected the "View Wireless Networks" button, you will see a list of all networks within range. The networks with a Gold locked padlock in the description are secure networks. The ones with an open padlock are not secure. If you see your network, highlight it and select "Connect". If your network is secure, you will be prompted to enter your password. If you don't know the password, you may obtain it from whoever set up your router.

It's because the existing wireless network profile doesn't match the one on wireless router, so you need to remove the existing wireless network profile. This is an example to do it: click here
After that, reconnect the computer to wireless network: click here
Hope this helps.

TNA and Lucha Underground
At the Lucha Libre World Cup, TNA and Lucha Underground formed a partnership. John Morrison teamed up with Mr Anderson and Matt Hardy, all of whom were former WWE stars, during the trios tournament. Initially, the belief was that Anderson and Hardy would be teaming up with Drew Galloway since they all worked for the same company, but Galloway ended up being on the international team with El Mesias and Angelico instead.

The stable-memo package
Whereas most memo combinators memoize based on equality, stable-memo does it based on whether the exact same argument has been passed to the function before (that is, is the same argument in memory).
stable-memo only evaluates keys to WHNF.
This can be more suitable for recursive functions over graphs with cycles.
stable-memo doesn't retain the keys it has seen so far, which allows them to be garbage collected if they will no longer be used. Finalizers are put in place to remove the corresponding entries from the memo table if this happens.
Data.StableMemo.Weak provides an alternative set of combinators that also avoid retaining the results of the function, only reusing results if they have not yet been garbage collected.
There is no type class constraint on the function's argument.
For motivation, here is an implementation of map that preserves sharing of the spine for cyclic lists. It should even be safe to use this on arbitrarily long, acyclic lists since as long as the garbage collector is chasing you, the size of the memo table should stay under control, too.
map :: (a -> b) -> [a] -> [b] map f = go where go = memo map' map' [] = [] map' (x:xs) = f x : go xs
This library is largely based on the implementation of memo found in "Stretching the storage manager: weak pointers and stable names in Haskell", from Simon Peyton Jones, Simon Marlow, and Conal Elliott (http://community.haskell.org/~simonmar/papers/weak.pdf).

COLLEGE STATION, Texas – The No. 13 Texas A&M softball team dropped a 7-0 game to No. 15 Missouri in the first game of the Aggies' Southeastern Conference-opening series, Friday at the Aggie Softball Complex. With the win, the Tigers (13-3, 1-0 SEC) lead the three-game series, 1-0, and the Aggies (17-5) fall to 0-1 in conference play.
The Aggies struggled at the plate against the Tigers, picking up just three hits while allowing 11 and committing two errors. Junior Rachel Fox (5-3) suffered her first conference loss in the circle after giving up three earned runs on four hits. Fox did not walk any batters and struck out two through 3 1/3 innings of work.
Missouri struck early, scoring an unearned run in the top of the first inning. Tiger leadoff hitter Taylor Gadbois singled and reached second on an error before a wild pitch and another base hit sent her home for the 1-0 Mizzou lead.
A pair of home runs and a two-base error stretched the Tigers' advantage to 6-0 in the top of the fourth. Aggie freshman Abby Donnell entered to pitch in midway through the half-inning, tossing the final two outs. Donnell allowed one earned run on one walk and four hits, while fanning two in 3 2/3 frames of relief.
Texas A&M had a couple of bright spots defensively with two outfield assists at second base that caught Missouri runners off guard as they attempted to take extra bags on a base hit. Senior Cassie Tysarczyk's throw from right in the top of the first gave the Aggies their first out of the game. Sophomore Cali Lanphear also recorded an out when her throw from left in the top of the third sent Missouri's only base runner of the inning back to the visiting dugout.
Senior Nicole Morgan continued to be dominant behind the plate, catching a runner stealing to end the top of the second inning. The catcher has caught four runners stealing this season, and leads the SEC by a long shot with seven pickoffs.
Missouri hit a third home run, a solo shot over left in the sixth inning, to pick up the Tigers' final run of the game for the 7-0 lead.
Seniors Emily Albus and Amber Garza, and freshman April Ryan had one hit each on the night for the Aggies, and Garza and Morgan reached base on walks. Ryan was the only Texas A&M player with an extra-base hit, as she reached on a hard-hit double to right-center in the bottom of the fourth.
Missouri pitcher Tori Finucane (6-2) allowed just three hits and walked two batters for the shutout, striking out seven Aggies on the way to her first SEC victory of the season.
The SEC-opening game ended with 1,001 shots of fireworks in honor of Texas A&M Head Coach Jo Evans' 1,000th victory, earned last weekend against Wisconsin. Evans is the only active SEC coach to have reached the milestone.
The Aggies and Tigers will rematch Saturday at 1 p.m. at the Aggie Softball Complex. Texas A&M softball officials will meet prior to the game to discuss Sunday's weather forecast, and could possibly combine Saturday and Sunday's contests into a 1 p.m. doubleheader Saturday. To learn more about Texas A&M softball, log on to AggieAthletics.com and follow @AggieSoftball on Twitter.

We look at five technologies that look set to become part of every day lives very soon, to find out how they'll change our lives.
Existing terrestrial cable and IPTV networks should be able to distribute 3D content.
The bandwidth that such networks use to deliver typical HD broadcasts will be adequate for delivering 3D video once the networks upgrade to newer video compression techniques.
Satellite may face a more difficult road, since such systems already use the best levels of compression.
For physical media playback, Blu-ray can store the data needed, and 3D Blu-ray players are already on the drawing board.
No fundamental changes in Blu-ray will be necessary, so the trade group that created the standard is focusing compatibility - such as ensuring that a 2D TV can play a 3D disc.
Standards issues might not end up being very troublesome, so long as the 3DTVs are flexible enough.
An industry group is working on setting some general parameters, much as digital TV was broken up into 480, 720, and 1080 formats, along with progressive and interlaced versions.
A 3DTV may need to support multiple formats, but all will involve alternating images and a pair of shutter-based glasses.
Poor expects that 3DTV will be but a minor upgrade to existing HDTV sets.
The upgraded sets will need a modified display controller that alternates images 60 per second for each eye, as well as an infrared or wireless transmitter to send synchroniSation information to the 3D glasses.

In the early 90's, Kirk Weddle conducted a photo shoot of the band Nirvana. This photo shoot was intended for their new studio album. The interesting thing about this photo shoot is that is took place under water. Nirvana and Kirk Weddle both have some interesting memories about this day.
Kirk recalls the band being cranky because it was so early in the morning. He also recalls the weather to be lousy. It was cloudy, looked like rain. Kirk also remembers the thought he had, which was to never conduct a photo shoot with a rock band early in the morning.
Nirvana had some of the same feeligs. They, too according to TopTenReviews, remember the weather being lousy and just feeling out of it. However, what made this day worth it for them was the picture of Spencer Elden under water with money in his hand. This picture immediately surfaced everywhere, and everyone loved this picture. It was also this picture that made the almbum extras worth it in the end.
Kirk said it was fun to talk about these moments again and go back in time. He also said he does not regret the photo shoot at all.
To the fans of Nirvana, the picture of Spencer Elden and all other picture from that photo shoot are now available on Rock Paper Photo. These photos will only be available for a limited time, so fans should act fast.

Today's Interviews:
The future workforce of the Defense Department lies in part with the children of military families. DoD is working hard to improve its child education opportunities. It explored new ideas during the Military Child Education Coalition 15th National Training Seminar, which was held at the Gaylord National Harbor Hotel in Maryland and wrapped up yesterday. Doctor Bill Harrison, board vice chairman of the Military Child Education Coalition, moderated a panel discussion with Coast Guard Commandant Admiral Robert Papp, Deputy Chief of Staff for Manpower at the U.S Air Force Lieutenant General Darrell Jones and Program Director of Fleet and Family Readiness of the Naval Installations Command Edward Cannon.
Vice President for Defense and Foreign Policy Studies
Cato Institute
The sequestration model of forcing budget cuts is blunt and indiscriminate toward federal programs. The Defense Department is thinking of alternative ways to soften the blow and maximize its own efficiency. Outside policy experts and think tanks also have their own recommendations. Christopher Preble is vice president for defense and foreign policy studies at the Cato Institute. He is a defense expert who joined nine think tanks to outline quick reforms to drive down DoD's budget. Preble is now looking at a new plan being offered by Michele Flournoy, the former undersecretary of Defense for policy. Preble joined Jared to discuss his thoughts on Flournoy's recommendations.
Senior Fellow
IBM Center for The Business of Government
More and more lawmakers are looking for a quick fix to solve budget issues within federal agencies. An evidence-based government uses data and analytics to find the value behind the dollars spent on government decisions. The Office of Management and Budget is asking federal agencies to develop their 2015 budgets with evidence-based thinking. John Kamensky is senior fellow at the IBM Center for The Business of Government. He talked with Jared about five easy steps any agency can use to make decisions with more evidence and evaluation.

Chief Information Officer
Department of Health and Human Services
The Department of Health and Human Services is adding some rigor to how it manages the billions of dollars it spends on technology. HHS is building on the initial success of the PortfolioStat process. Frank Baitman is the HHS chief information officer. On this week's Ask the CIO, he tells Federal News Radio's Executive Editor Jason Miller about how this new governance process laid the path for the latest agencywide technology program.
Executive Editor
Federal News Radio
Defense and Veterans Affairs Department officials are reassuring House lawmakers that the two departments will continue to share electronic health records, despite developing separate electronic health systems. On Wednesday, officials attempted to differentiate for lawmakers the goals of sharing health records and having one electronic health system. Federal News Radio's Jason Miller joined Jared to discuss whether VA and DoD cleared up the confusion.
Read Jason's related article.
The Office of Personnel Management's proposed changes to the Combined Federal Campaign, the annual federal fundraising drive, are getting a frosty reception from local charities. The House Oversight and Government Reform Subcommittee on Federal Workforce, US Postal Service and Census held a hearing today to discuss OPM's plan to do away with volunteers coordinating committees. Instead, the charity drive would be run by regional committees established by OPM. It also wants to require charities to pay an application fee and eliminate cash and check donations in favor of electronic donations. Jared played clips from Debby Hampton, president and CEO of the United Way of Central Oklahoma and Mark Lambert, OPM's associate director for Merit System Accountability and Compliance, who testified at the hearing.

On most groundstrokes it shouldn't even be an issue.
If it's his serve that has a lot of sidespin, remember to take a compact backswing and just work on your timing. The more times you see that serve, the easier it will be to time.
You shouldn't be worrying about adjusting your racket face angle, or "spin axis" or whatever. Do it by feel. Just move your feet and try to time the ball like you would on any other shot.
i think it´s a case of over-analysing something that should really be solved on-court by playing.
you have to learn to read the incoming ball, and you can only do that by playing. of course many people don´t pay much attention to what their opponent does and focus on their own strokes only.

Nationals lay on the heat on Padres
Zimmerman launches two homers including walkoff winner
After posting a 1.35 ERA in his first 30 outings, Gregerson has given up six runs on seven hits, including two homers, and four walks over seven innings in his last nine outings.
Richard, meantime, issued back-to-back walks to load the bases with two outs in the first. Pudge Rodriguez tied the game with a line drive off Richard's foot that the pitcher couldn't find in time to throw out the catcher. Michael Morse then hit a two-run single to center.
The Padres opened with four straight singles in the eighth, with the final two runs scoring on a sacrifice fly and a throwing error by Desmond that tied the game.
Jerry Hairston singled with one out in the ninth. After Adrian Gonzalez flew out to center, Scott Hairston doubled to left. But the ball ricocheted hard off the wall to Josh Willingham, who threw to Desmond. The shortstop made a perfect relay to Rodriguez to easily erase the go-ahead run.
"We battled back again," said Gonzalez, who started the eighth-inning rally with his second single of the night. "We always do, it's the sign of this team.
Last night was the 30th one-run game played by the Padres this season. They are 19-11.
"That one would have been special," Jerry Hairston said.
