|Last Day in Brazil
|Senior Jordan Henriquez
|Brazil was a great experience that I will never forget, and I can probably vouch for my teammates. I had a chance to explore different cities, neighborhoods, and even areas of the city that people have very little. I had a chance to meet people that were wealthy and kids who were poor. I had a very good time giving back to those who didn't have much, and it made me realize how blessed I am. I also had chance to eat many different varieties of Brazilian food, from the pizza to the steak! I loved the beach even though I only put my feet in the ocean, and watching some of the guys "trying" to ride the waves. I was also able to visit the souvenir shop where I bought many different things for my family and friends. Overall, it is by far the most memorable foreign trip I have had with my K-State Family!!! Go Cats
|Sophomore Brian Rohleder
|This was a trip of a lifetime. This was my first time being in a different country and experiencing a new culture and language and getting to play basketball while experiencing this was even better. No matter what difference we had in language or customs, we could still play a game of basketball and share that common interest. The whole trip we had to learn to adjust, both culturally and on the court. We had to adjust to the language, the different monetary system, the people and the customs. Similarly on the court we had to adjust to a different type of basketball, different officiating and some different rules. But we did adjust and we got to learn a lot more about people different than us and make friendships over a similar thing being basketball. The sights, the sounds and the feel of Brazil were unforgettable, but hopefully, what helps us the most from this trip is how we grew better as a team, and also individually, in both basketball and appreciation of a different nation.
|Freshman D.J. Johnson
|The trip to Brazil was a good experience to see another country, and take part in some of their culture. Throughout the trip, we visited many tourist attractions such as: Christ the Redeemer, the Market, Sugarloaf Mountain and Copacabana Beach. My favorite attraction was Sugarloaf Mountain. What drew me to Sugarloaf was the height of the mountains. At one point I was eye level with the clouds. Being that high off the ground, we were able to take some beautiful pictures of the city. What separated Sugarloaf from the other sites was the opportunity to feed the monkeys when you reached the top of the mountains. I enjoyed feeding the monkeys.
|Donors - Dennis and Sharon Mullin
|What a wonderful opportunity we were given! We were invited to travel to Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro with the K-State coaches, team and other supporters. After arriving on an overnight flight last Thursday, we stayed in Sao Paulo where we watched the team play three against several Brazilian professional and club teams. We also enjoyed going to a local park, walking to the Market Square and shopping. Our two favorite things other than the games were exercising on all of the outdoor exercise equipment at the park and visiting with the only local that we found who spoke English. He owned a small shop; and we both so enjoyed visiting with him that we visited for over an hour, took pictures and exchanged email addresses.
On Sunday, we traveled to Rio. Our tours were wonderful! The first was to travel by train up a mountain to see the famous Christ the Redeemer statue. The second tour took us by gondolas up another mountain called Sugar Loaf to look at the fabulous view of Rio. We also watched an exciting basketball game played by the Cats.
We really enjoyed getting to spend time eating and visiting with the team, the coaches and their wives and with other supporters of the team..
|Donor - Jim Johnson
|I wasn't sure what to expect when I signed up for the trip. I did it to really support K-State and didn't read much or know much about Brazil. My wife, Laura, needed to be at home as three of our other college-aged children were moving around and starting back to school. So my 23-year-old son, Jared, got "called up." He spent three years at K-State before transferring to Colorado State, where he will graduate this fall. Overall, I could not have been more pleased. We had a very small group who went at a pretty easy pace that allowed us enough 'alone time' to also let you experience Brazil outside of a gym. We got to see the staff with their families and get to know them off the court. As from an alumnus that lives out of the state of Kansas, this was a treat because we just mainly see them in game settings. I was very impressed with the organization and timeliness of all the players and staff. The entire team went on the side trips and tourist attractions. The basketball was better than I thought, and I saw our team improve, even over a short period of time. We spent time with the players, coaches, staff and other donors all whom were polite and very enjoyable. Seeing the players at the beaches in Rio was entertaining. People watched as this group went in and out of the surf, at one point, they were asked to get out of the water as the tide was getting bigger but the lifeguards said they were all big enough to save them if they got in trouble! It was a great trip and a team-building experience.

|Sugar Loaf Mountain
|Junior Shane Southwell
|My mindset prior to this trip was to take it as a business trip. I envisioned every moment here asking myself, 'Can I see myself playing here professionally?' The thought of playing overseas is very scary for me. This trip made me realize how difficult it is to play in another country especially when your native language is not spoken frequently. Being a communications major at K-State made me realize how important non-verbal communication is. I never used my smile to signal so much until I was here. It's amazing to realize certain universal signs of communication.
The event on the trip that had the biggest impact on my future was visiting a nearby school in one of the worst neighborhoods in Rio de Janeiro in terms of poverty and crime. The kids came from places I could never even imagine being so bad! But they still walk around everyday smiling. It made me feel so fortunate and privileged. It also motivated me to never complain about my shortcomings in life. Lastly, the center of the school made me realize how important dreams and goals are. Without a dream, life is empty and success becomes impossible.
|Freshman Michael Orris
|My time in Brazil has been amazing! Not a moment goes by where something exciting doesn't happen! We have had the opportunities of a lifetime with what we have experienced here and it will be something I will never forget. Being in Sao Paulo and eating pizza until my stomach hurts, to going to the Christ the Redeemer statue, it was one breath-taking moment after another. The statue was one of the most amazing things I have ever seen in my life, the power and beauty behind it was immense. It was hard not to sit there and not be overwhelmed with emotions.
After that experience, we went to the favelas to help underprivileged kids, and that had to be one of the highlights of my life, something I will cherish forever. To top it all off we went to Sugarloaf Mountain today. Although I was scared out of my mind on the ride up the mountain, the destination and beauty that was waiting was a special sight to see. All in all, I am so thankful for this trip and couldn't be happier with what I have experienced and I recommend it to anyone!
|Strength and Conditioning Coach Jimmy Price
|Today's sight-seeing trip allowed us to visit one of the most beautiful places in all of Brazil called Sugar Loaf Mountain. The mountain stands 1,300 feet above the sea below. A modern cable car holding 50-60 people would be the mode of transportation to the apex of the mountain. I must say, after seeing the first version of the cable car, which looked to be nothing more than a rusted out rollercoaster cart, the modern version was a welcomed upgrade.
At the top of the mountain, we saw beautiful views of the beach, mountains, two small monkeys playing in the trees, and extremely large ants, at least an inch long.
During this excursion, numerous players and staff conquered their fear of height. They were rewarded with some of the most beautiful panoramic views of Rio. Sugar Loaf provided a great all-around adventure, and gave those who made the trip a memory of a lifetime.
On a side note, I would like to comment on some general everyday activities that are very different in Brazil. Upon our group trip to the mall, we had to walk a few blocks to get there. Walking in Brazil is an interesting experience. The cars, buses and motorcycles do not yield for pedestrians, if anything the larger vehicles tend to speed up and welcome the opportunity to make a hood ornament out of zoned out Americans. Maybe this is Brazil's version of speed, agility, and quickness training. Either way, crossing the street is an adventure by itself.
So whether it is Sugar Loaf Mountain or crossing the street, Brazil has definitely provided the opportunity for us all to overcome a fear of some kind.

|Beach/Solar Meninos De Luz Clinic
|Sophomore Thomas Gipson
| I think today was the most fun I have had in my life. We did multiple things that made me feel that I was blessed to be here and that I was here for a purpose. Today I woke up around 10 a.m. and decided to go to the beach with Will (Spradling). When we walked to the beach we saw beautiful girls that were exotic to our eyes. We finally decided to get in the water and it was very cold. It took us a minute to get used to the water, but when we finally did, it was the best time. The waves were so huge and eventually they made me tired, so I had to take a break from swimming. An hour later, some more teammates decided to come and we all were in the water.
Later in the day, we went to go visit the children that live in the favelas (slums). It was a great experience that we all enjoyed. Putting a smile on those kids face was a good feeling because it shows that people look up to us. The area was extremely poor. It takes $1 million dollars to keep that school going each year. It seems as if the school is on top of a hill. There were stairs that you had to go up everywhere. We all went to the basketball court and we showed them various drills. It seemed like they had a great time playing with us. Adrian (Diaz) broke the backboard to the basketball goal and everyone went crazy. Afterwards it seemed like the kids were sad for us to leave and honestly we were sad to leave them..
|Sophomore Shawn Meyer
| By far, today was the most culturally enlightening moment of the Brazil trip. We took an excursion to the favelas, which are the poorest parts of Rio de Janeiro. They keep the students in school from sun up to sun down because if they don't the students would become victims of the harsh reality of violence and drugs that plague their neighborhoods. Being here makes us all appreciate our lives in the U.S. All of the kids were so happy that we took the time to visit them and hold a clinic on their basketball court. The kids spent the whole time telling us which American actors we all looked like (including quite a laugh with references to Shane (Southwell) looking like Will Smith) and challenging us to play them in basketball. At the end of the day, they asked us all to sign their K-State t-shirts and then asked if they could sign ours. We all exchanged autographs and said our good-byes. The organization that houses the school for the kids needs more donations and when I get older I plan to help them. This has been a great experience and I look forward to coming back.
|Sophomore Nino Williams
| Today was a very interesting day for me and the team. We got a chance to go to a clinic with kids in a Brazilian community. It really changed my way of looking at the things I have back in the U.S. Also, it helps show me why America is one of the best countries in the world. But back to the kids! They were extremely friendly and kind, they made my mind and heart wonder. It made me think about how much people and sports can influence young, less fortunate kids' lives. It really was a life-changing experience. We left them with joy and a t-shirt, but they left us with a different point of view on life.
|Director of Operations Brad Korn
| Today is the seventh day of our adventure to Brazil. This was scheduled to be an off day of basketball, but it was far from it. Today, the guys and staff visited the Solar Meninos De Luz. Upon our arrival it was obvious just how good we all live back in the U.S. A broken light switch is not such a big deal compared to the challenges some of these kids face every single day. After a few stations of lay-ups, passing, dribbling and shooting the guys played a few minutes of some 5-on-5. I could not believe how excited and helpful our guys were. All of them showed such appreciation and affection to the kids. I've never been more proud to be a part of this team than I was today. The guys wouldn't leave and stayed and played with the kids, handing out autographs.
One of the most memorable moments for me would be when the guys were letting the kids sign their shirts. It was great to see our guys light up getting an autograph themselves. Maybe today we will have an impact on someone's life here and maybe someone on our team will be changed because of this experience. This is what it's all about. You can't make every jumper, grab every rebound or win every game, but if you can make a difference in someone else's life then you are doing something amazing. Today didn't matter was color someone was, how many points they scored or how much money they made, it was about making the world a better place through the game of basketball. The players at K-State did that in an impressive way. I was once told, "USE basketball, don't let basketball USE you" and today was a perfect example.
|August 13, 2012
|Rio de Janeiro/Christ the Redeemer Statue
|Junior Omari Lawrence
| This is what I found amazing, as we were traveling to the game last night, when I woke up on the bus I saw people on the highway with suitcases waiting for a bus to pick them up. In the U.S., that's not allowed, people don't do that. After the games, the children try very hard to talk to us in English and communicate with us. They always ask for some of our gear, like jerseys, shorts or water bottles. I'm looking forward to being able to explore Rio and be more of a tourist. We have two big tours scheduled, Christ the Redeemer statue and Sugar Loaf Mountain. We learned about those before we came here, so it will be cool to really see them in person. After our game (vs. Pinda) today we stopped for lunch and finally got to eat something besides pizza. They brought the meat still on the metal rod it was cooked on, to you and cut it off as much as you wanted. We are now back on the bus for a five-hour ride to Rio.
|Senior Martavious Irving
| Today was a special and great day for me. Simply because of the experience we got to see as a team. We woke up this morning and started on our adventure to the Cristo Redentor, also known as Christ the Redeemer. I'm not sure if it's one of the Wonders of the World, but it was the most beautiful statues and sceneries I have ever seen. The statue is so high on the mountain that you can see the whole city. Mind you, Rio de Janeiro is the third biggest city in the world. You can also see the ocean and many islands surrounding the city. It was a great experience and I'm blessed to be a part of the trip.
|Assistant Coach Chester Frazier
|This trip to Brazil has been fun for me. Seeing our team progress and get better has been an awesome feeling. As a coach, you hate to lose games, but I think we learned a great deal from losing the first game here. I think it really humbled a few of our guys and they realize how hard you have to play to win.
The best part of the trip for me has been off the court! Brazil is rich in history and beautiful; not to mention the food has been great! Having the opportunity to see Brazil and experience it with the people I will go to war with every night has been great. I think it's important for players to see coaches in a different setting besides always yelling and screaming at them! I love my guys!
This trip has also opened my eyes to how fortunate we are! Being able to travel and see different parts of the world has been a blessing. For many years I hadn't seen anything outside of Baltimore City! Because of basketball I have been all over the world, something many of my peers can't relate to. I hope to pass my passion and knowledge for basketball on to my players, and continue a great tradition of basketball here at K-State!
We are family here at KSTATE!! Everyone have a great day and get your tickets now!!! Let's get Bramlage rocking this season!!!

|Game 3/Trip to Rio de Janeiro
|Sophomore Angel Rodriguez
Brazil so far has been great. Even though we have not done much other than play basketball and go out to different place to get dinner, I can say it been a good experience so far. The food, streets and the way people look reminds me of Puerto Rico. One thing I did realize was how poor people live in this country. Before coming to Brazil, I thought I would not have a problem at communicating with people because Portuguese is very similar to Spanish. However, that has not been the case. I have struggled a little because they speak too fast for me to completely understand what the are trying to say.
|Assistant coach Alvin Brooks III
Foreign trips for basketball teams are a once in a lifetime experience for many. As for me, it is a twice in a lifetime experience. I had the opportunity to experience Brazil about three years ago with Bradley. It was good to see some of the same people, our American and Brazilian hosts, while it is also great to experience it with my K-State family and newlywed wife.
The biggest thing I've learned throughout this great opportunity is to be a traveler and not a tourist! To explain in detail, we were told to be a traveler and not a tourist because tourist expects everything to be like home while I traveler adjusts to the culture. It took me two different experiences to embrace the fact that it is a different culture and I have to adjust. I'm a very picky eater, but I've done a better job of finding foods I like and trying to stick with it. I embraced the fact that it is different foods, but I'm still not venturing outside my box.
As for having the travelers' mentality on the court, we have adjusted to the physicality of the game as well as the very different rules. I applaud our guys for continuing to take defensive charges when they haven't called one in our favor yet. We are playing against grown men who are use to all of the old school tricks against us due to their experience.
As a new staff and new system for our players, this trip to Brazil has helped us learn one another in a rowdy atmosphere and high-level intensity basketball. We have also benefited by bonding with one another off the court!
Thanks to the University and Athletic Department for allowing us to experience this great opportunity!
|August 10-11, 2012
|First game vs. San Jose dos Campos/Second game vs. Mogi Das Cruzes
|Junior Will Spradling
The flight to Brazil was not that bad to me because I was able to sleep pretty much the whole time. Right now we are in the Brazilian state of Sao Paulo. It seems like a quiet city, not as bustling as what I thought it would be. Our tour guides have told us that Rio de Janeiro is a totally different story. So far we haven't done much touring. We have been focusing more on basketball because the first two teams are the best competition we will play down here. We went out to eat the last two nights. The first night we had Brazilian pizza. The pizza here is different because there is not much sauce on it and they will put just about anything on it. Last night we had a buffet that served many different foods such as chicken, pizza, and sushi. This morning we are watching film of the game last night and getting ready to play our second game tonight.
|Sophomore Adrian Diaz
I was expecting the ten hour flight to be bad, but it was worse! Because I am 7-feet tall, there was not enough room for my legs. We flew overnight and they kept having to wake me up to get the food and drink carts by. I knew our first stop was going to be small (to Atlanta). Angel (Rodriguez) said he thinks Sao Paulo looks more like Puerto Rico than Miami. I am able to understand bits and pieces of the language (Portuguese) because I speak Spanish. However; it's more broken up and doesn't flow quite like Spanish does. It's very hard to communicate with everyone because of the language differences.
I walked around the first day and found a small place to eat. I had a sandwich that reminded me of home. The bread was different but the meat and cheese was very similar.
The rumors are true!! The women here are beautiful!!!
|Assistant Coach Chris Lowery
After the long trip, we finally arrived in Brazil. The country is beautiful and the people are very friendly. It was very important that we help the players understand that we should act like travelers and not tourists, so we don't offend anyone. It is always a great experience when you are able to leave the country and have an experience with guys you are sharing a common goal with. Our guys learned a lot from the experience of playing the first game in Brazil. The old cliché that you never judge a book by its cover was very evident in our game against Sao Jose dos Campos. Coach Weber made no excuses to our team, but hit home on the fact that every game is a chance to compete and represent what is on the front of your uniform. We are on the bus heading to our next game and anticipating a better effort and level of execution.
|August 9, 2012
|Arrival in Sao Paulo
|Head Coach Bruce Weber
Obviously, the biggest thing was to get here safe and sound. We arrived here in Sao Paulo early this morning after an overnight flight. It always takes a toll of you mentally and physically when you fly for that long. I'm sure that the guys wanted to go right to bed, but what I have learned through the years on these foreign trips is that you need to stay up and be active. You need to get your time clock where your body and mind are feeling good, so we came to practice to get them running up and down. Some guys were a little stiffer than others, and other guys had some pretty good energy. We have a nice, hour, 15-minute practice. Now it's a chance to explore and look around the city and have dinner. We need to get some good rest because we have three straight days of games.
The goal with these games is to get experience. We're trying to see how our guys react to certain situations. You never know what type of competition you'll face. This is their preseason as well. They are just getting together as groups for the first time, so you hope they haven't installed too many complicated plays to throw your guys off. We will play different groups of five; try to give everyone 15 to 18-minutes of playing time. The biggest thing I told our guys is that I want to see energy and passion. I want them to play hard. You can always guard, it may not be perfect on offense since we haven't been together very long, but you can overcome that by playing hard.
|Senior Rodney McGruder
|The trip here was long. We had a layover in Atlanta and it lasted about two and half hours. It was tough because the guys got tired and wanted to take naps, but Coach Weber told us to stay up and sleep on the plane to Brazil. The flight here I was able to get some sleep unlike some of the other guys. Practice today (Thursday) went fine. The guys really got together and competed and got some of that jet-lag out of their bodies. We're excited about the game tomorrow (Friday). We want to get the win to start the trip out right against one of the best teams in Brazil. It will be tough, but I know that guys are up to the challenge.

Brief Summary
Dendrolagus ursinus
Dendrolagus ursinus is a little-known and vulnerable species. Commonly known as the White-Throated Tree Kangaroo or the Vogelkop Tree Kangaroo, D. ursinus was the first tree kangaroo described (1836; Groves, 1982). Dendrolagus ursinus is one of twelve species in the genus. They make their home in the trees on the Vogelkop Peninsula New Guinea. It can be identified by a mostly black body and a streak of white hair that runs up its throat. Its white throat is a key characteristic for identifying this species, hence the common name. They are short footed, with large ears and a shorter tail than other dendrolagids (Groves, 1982). Tree kangaroos are known to be primarily herbivores; they eat leaves, ferns, bark, flowers and fruits (Edwards and Ward, 2001). This species is suffering due to human forces, such as high hunting pressure and deforestation. This has resulted in at least a 30 % decrease in population over the last 30 years (Leary et al, 2008). Populations of this species are now found in remote areas not usually accessed by humans (Leary et al., 2008). Dendrolagus ursinus is a unique species to New Guinea, and is poorly known because of its seclusion and the sparse amount of information that has been collected. Because of human pressures and their unique ecologies, tree kangaroos are the most endangered mammal group in New Guinea (Porolak, 2008).

As TDP members vociferously opposed the creation of Telangana, Y.S. Jaganmohan Reddy, son of Late Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddyand a few Congress members too shouted slogans in support of a united Andhra Pradesh.
The Lok Sabha was briefly adjourned on Tuesday when members from Andhra Pradesh clashed with each other over the creation of Telangana State.
Speaker Meira Kumar adjourned the House for 15 minutes when some Congress members joined the four Telugu Desam Party (TDP) members in opposing the division of the State. This evoked a strong protest from the members of the Telangana region.
Trouble began as soon as the House met for the day. The TDP members displayed placards demanding a unified Andhra Pradesh and raised slogans against the creation of Telangana State. They trooped into the well of the House, alleging that "people are dying" and "there was no government" in Andhra Pradesh. They relented only after the Speaker promised that they would be allowed to raise the matter during zero hour.
However, as soon as TDP's K. Narayana Rao rose during zero hour to voice his opposition to the division of the State, Congress members from the Telangana region reacted angrily and welcomed the Centre's decision to bifurcate the State.
Within minutes, the TDP members were back in the well of the House and Y.S. Jaganmohan Reddy, son of the former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister, Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy, shook hands with them in solidarity. He also borrowed a placard from them as they shouted slogans in support of a united Andhra Pradesh. He was joined by Congress members K. Bapiraju, B. Jhansi Lakshmi, Magunta Sreenivasulu Reddy and K.S. Rao. This forced the Speaker to adjourn the House for 15 minutes.
When the proceedings resumed, TDP members N. Sivaprasad, N. Kristappa, M. Venugopal Reddy and K. Narayana Rao once again demanded that the Centre reverse its decision.
As commotion prevailed, Leader of the House Pranab Mukherjee asked the TDP members to return to their seats. He disapproved of the way they expressed their views. This was followed by an argument between them and Mr. Mukherjee. It was only when the Speaker said the TDP would get a chance to speak on the issue later in the day, order was restored.
In the Rajya Sabha, the issue came up during a zero hour mention made by senior Bharatiya Janata Party member Venkaiah Naidu. Congress members challenged his charge that the Centre had complicated the issue.
Mr. Naidu demanded a probe into how a Union Minister made the announcement on the issue outside when Parliament was in session. His plea for a statement from a Minister was turned down.
Agitated by the manner in which Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy and some other members raised the demand for a united Andhra in the House, Congress members from Telangana met Defence Minister A. K. Antony – who is also chairman of the party's Disciplinary Action Committee – and urged him to take action against the Kadapa MP and son of the former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister, Y. S. Rajasekhara Reddy.
As demands for disciplinary action against him gathered steam, Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy sought to justify the stance he took in the Lok Sabha as an attempt to prevent the TDP from hijacking the demand for a united Andhra.
Later, Andhra-Rayalseema MPs met Mr. Antony to state their case. Both groups were apparently advised by the Minister to hold their fire and not aggravate matters.

FreeShip...will I be able to
I'd like to design a small boat using freeship. Can anyone tell me if after I complete it on FS, would I be able to print out cross sectional "slices" of the hull? They need not be printed out life size, but if I were able to print them out at all, I can scale them up to life size. Thanks in advance....
There are two or three ways to do that in FS. First is to put stations at at the "slices" and print the offset table. This will give you points to plot full sized that you then connect with a straight edge or a batten (depending on the design). Second, you can create individual panels for each of the areas that fit into the model, then you can export them as a DXF from the "develop plates" section or you can again export the offsets and plot them from there manually. The third method I am not familiar with which is to do something with intersecting planes and will result in the same as option number two. Before you do any of that you will have to decide whether the skin you see in the model is the inside of the skin or the outside of the skin. Thickness is not taken into account in the software except when determining weight for the CG. The skin you see is infinitely thin... it has no thickness. When doing transverse panels you will have to either subtract your skin thickness from the final result if you choose to have the visible surface as the exterior surface, or you will have to view the surface as the inside one and then your model will actually be larger by twice the thickness of your chosen material.
Of course... the software is only a tool to draw shapes... whether that shape will be viable as a safe and usable boat is determined by the knowledge of design that resides between your ears... or not. A decade ago I was in your shoes... now my library of design and building runs to around 100 books, and around 15 hulls built. Most have been usable...some more than others. Before you start to "design"... start to read. Do a search of the forum for "boat design books" and "how to design a boat" for a decent list of books... primers if you will. You will also need to know about materials and their strengths, weaknesses and suitability for what you are planning. Methods of construction are also integral...determining and depending on the materials chosen and the suitability of the design to the chosen materials. You must also learn that a boat is a series of compromises that only "tend" to favor it's ultimate purpose. Heavy is slow but light is expensive, High speed results in low speed inefficiency, low speed efficiency pretty much kills the chance of high speed. Multi-hulls don't follow all of the same rules that mono-hulls do... at least initially. Each feature of your design has an up and a down side and you have to choose carefully to balance that out with your requirements to arrive at a shape that you can live with. Same with materials. And build method. And powering. And.....
Steve Lewis
Ed; take notice of what Steve has written. He has been there, done that. FS or any other program merely outputs whatever input instructions you give it. The program can not design a good boat on its own.
The usual way to scale up the sections is not to scale them up directly but to translate the shapes into a table of offsets. Many of the computer programs are capable of doing that for you.
Thanks guys for the information. My main problem is, back when I got my engineering degree, only one guy in the class had a calculator.....calcs. were done via slide rule!!! My biggest problem is less in the design parameters and more in the software. I'll probably just go back to what and how I know to do things.......probably get it built long before I could learn the CAD stuff!!
Thanks again,

MDA to lead business development mission
The Mississippi Development Authority (MDA) will lead a delegation of Mississippi businesses on a business development mission to San Jose, Costa Rica and Panama City, Panama from July 14-20, 2013. The trip is designed to connect Mississippi companies looking to expand trade and create new business relationships with opportunities in the two markets.
"In recent years, Mississippi, as well as the U.S., has seen an increase in exports to Costa Rica and Panama, and the demand for U.S. products in these two regions continues to grow," said MDA Executive Director Brent Christensen. "The U.S. has free trade agreements in place with both Costa Rica and Panama, which benefits Mississippi businesses that export to the two countries while fostering economic development in those regions. I encourage Mississippi businesses interested expanding trade into these two Central American markets to make plans to join MDA on this upcoming business development mission."

Evolving Visions of the French Revolution in English Romanticism (NEMLA 2013)
The exhilarating news of the French Revolution was the political spark for the literary explosion of English Romanticism, prompting authors to re-conceive what was literarily and metaphysically possible. Their new visions of the world were challenged by developments in France, however, as the idealism of the Revolution suffered through terror, blood, and ultimately dictatorship. This panel would explore how the authors in English Romanticism shaped and reshaped their visions to accommodate ...

'Spurned lover' attacks cousin with sickle; girl hospitalised
The victim who sustained deep cut wounds is recuperating after she underwent a surgery
The accused was thrashed by students and handed over to the police
HYDERABAD: A "spurned lover" attacked a co-student and his close relative whom he wanted to marry, with a hunting sickle on their college campus at Meerpet in L.B. Nagar on Thursday.
Lavanya, a final year polytechnic student of Teegala Rami Reddy College, sustained four deep cut wounds on her chest, abdomen, chin and hand in the assault that shocked students and sparked protests from all quarters.
Doctors of a corporate hospital at Malakpet said she was recuperating after she underwent a surgery.
The accused, M. Sudhakar Naik, 22, was caught when he tried to flee and was beaten up before being handed over to the L.B. Nagar police.
Twenty-year-old Lavanya was walking towards the laboratory along with classmates around 8.30 a.m. when Naik followed them carrying a bag. "He came from behind, pulled Lavanya by her hand and took out the sickle scaring us all," the victim's friends said. Showering abuses on her, Naik hit her with the weapon repeatedly even as she tried to escape. Alerted by her cries, college staff members and students rushed and overpowered him.
While some shifted the injured student to the hospital, others thrashed him before calling in the police.
Marriage issue
Naik hailed from Kadapa and Lavanya, hailing from Kamareddy of Nizamabad, is the daughter of his maternal uncle. "Both families consented to our marriage proposal, but Lavanya started avoiding me for the past six months after our elders developed differences over a family matter," he said.
Chopper's knife
Naik maintained that he only wanted to scare Lavanya, but did not intend to kill her. "I still want to marry her," he added. Along with the hunting sickle which he got made at Santoshnagar, he carried a chopper's knife in the bag.
A case of attempt to murder was registered.

Critical Review by Dick Lochte
SOURCE: "Lady Death and Aliens from the Planet Zaros," in Los Angeles Times Book Review, October 30, 1994, p. 11.
In the following, Lochte summarizes and favorably reviews Pulp.
Private eye Nick Belane sits in his sleazy downtown L.A. office, alone and lonely. It's hot outside and his air conditioner is on the fritz. His rent is overdue. He looks at a fly crawling across the top of his desk. Ever since the prime of Raymond Chandler, and probably long before that, fictional private eyes have been sitting at their desks, sweating and studying flies. But Pulp's Belane is a little different. A woozily parodic creation of the swirling mind of the late writer-poet Charles Bukowski, he is both earthier and more fanciful than his predecessors. And his pursuits are certainly more literary.
For example, Chandler's Philip Marlowe (in the novel The Little Sister) uses a swatter on his fly, then picks the insect up daintily by one wing and deposits it into a wastebasket. Belane smashes his with his bare hand and, barely pausing to wipe the result onto his pants leg, he fields a call from a client. It's Lady Death. Not some television horror movie hostess, but the genuine article. She hires Belane to find Louis-Ferdinand Celine, who has been seen at a used book store searching for Faulkner first editions. The problem is that the French novelist died back in the '60s. And if that isn't enough to make a shamus swill all the sake in his bottom desk drawer, Lady Death is just the first of a series of clients with odd requests.
There's John Barton, who hires him to get a line on the elusive Red Sparrow, whatever it may be. And entrepreneur Jack Bass, who asks him to follow Mrs. Bass, the former Miss Chili Cookoff of 1990, who he thinks may be deceiving him with another man. And, strangest of all, there 4-foot-8 Hal Grovers, who wants him to get rid of the woman who's making his life a living hell, Jeannie Nitro, who just happens to be one of six space aliens from the planet Zaros here to settle down on our browning earth.
In true detective novel tradition, the cases are related. And in his own blunt, heavy-handed manner, Belane works his way through to their solutions. This makes for a whimsical and oddly charming (a word not often used in describing Bukowski's work) spoof. The literary allusions are amusing. John Barton is a stand-in for John Martin, the owner of Black Sparrow Press, his publisher of record. Celine was a novelist whose world view and use of argot probably made him a Bukowski favorite. Two dim leg-breakers are named Dante and Fante, the former probably a reference to the poet of Divine Comedy fame, the later to John Fante who pioneered fictional studies of Hollywood's demimonde a bit before Bukowski. The explanation of the author's reason for depicting them as thugs I leave to better informed students of his work, along with any subtext to the rest of the cast of characters, including bookstore owner Red Kowldowsky, McKelvy the landlord and the treacherous beauty Deja Fountain.
Bukowski obviously wasn't out to bury the private detective genre with this playful pastiche. But he was toying with its conventions, with the smart talk and tough guy attitude. Probably of deeper import is the realization that, with all the boozy goofiness and slapstick whimsy of Belane's caper, this is very much an autobiographical work, a portrait of the aging author as an aging private eye, always on the case whether he is following up serious lines of inquiry or tossing away all his loot at Hollywood Park or in some dim bar.
Pulp was printed only months after his death last March at the age of 73. Though a few decades younger, Belane's sense of his own mortality is acute. Everywhere he looks he sees people and places he knew leaving the scene. And after he delivers Celine to Lady Death and she reclaims him, Belane and his client have this conversation:
"You haven't seen the last of me," the Lady said.
"Look, baby, can't we cut a deal?"
"It's never been done, Belane."
"Well, O.K., but how about giving me a date, your know, a D.O.D.?"
"What's that?"
"Date of Demise."
"What good would that do?"
"Lady, I could prepare myself."
"Every human should anyhow, Belane."
"Lady, they don't, they forget it, they ignore it or they're just too stupid to think it."
Eventually, he arrives at his moment of truth. "This can't be happening, I thought. This isn't the way it's supposed to happen." But it does, at a time when Belane has solved all of his cases. One hopes that Bukowski solved all of his, too.

Celebrety: Major Harris Dead: Delfonics Singer Dies At 65
The R&B, soul singer Major Harris passed on Friday Nov.9, he was 65 years old. The singer left the Delfonics in 1974 to go solo and record his hit 1975 song "Love Won't Let Me Wait." Before making a name for himself with the Delfonics in the early '70s, Harris was a member of several groups including The Teenagers and Nat Turner's Rebellion.
Harris' sister, Catherine Thomas, told the Associated Press that her brother passed away due to congestive heart and lung failure. The singer was pronounced dead at a Richmond hospital.
"He always appeared to be older, which gave him a lot of ins to a lot of older places," Thomas said of her brother's knack for sneaking into clubs to listen to music while he was still a teenager.
Harris' last performance was in 2011 with several other members of the Delfonics.

Her Hatha- and Vinyasa-style lessons cater to any age, body type, and ability, with posture adjustments for students who stretch at different paces. She also entertains children aged 3 and older with lighthearted kids' yoga sessions, which channel creativity to keep youngsters moving instead of convincing them that their mats are lava. Inga also teaches yoga principles to special needs kids and adults, including some with autism. Apart from classes, events such as Yoga and Wine Night?where libations and recipes for healthy eats are passed around?encourage visitors to socialize in the candlelit space. Inga is far from possessive of the environment she has built, and she readily rents out the studio to other teachers. She currently shares the space with a belly-dance expert and two massage therapists.3046 Del Prado Blvd SCape Coral, FL US
Athlete InstituteRead MoreAthlete Institute's ACE?certified strength and conditioning specialists prep athletes of all fitness levels for more advanced game play by crafting custom training programs. During sessions for individuals, small groups, or entire teams, trainers pinpoint problematic habits in athletes' technique, such as a tendency to employ the use of a golf cart during footraces. The trainers then chart drills to build strength and greater range of motion, and they introduce corrective exercises to prevent injuries. Each training regimen features varied routines that are both personalized and progressive, with maneuvers shifting and upgrading continually to challenge muscles. One-hour sessions incorporate indoor workouts as well as helpful video analysis.4523 Del Prado Blvd. S. Unit ACape Coral, FL US
All Together FitnessRead MoreAfter a medical condition stamped out Michael Lindsay?s dreams of becoming an astronaut, he followed his other passion: helping others find total wellness with fitness and nutritional counseling. At All Together Fitness, his crew of fitness experts lead boot-camp classes for men and women of all ages and athletic abilities. Sessions are held outdoors so participants can show off workout moves to area birds.3231 Santa Barbara PlaceCape Coral, FL US
Vida Health & Fitness AcademyRead MoreAt Vida Health & Fitness Academy, clients get in shape primarily by lifting and swinging kettlebells. The exercises take place during cross-training workouts that are designed to increase both muscle mass and lung definition. The instructors maintain an upbeat atmosphere to help boost participants' motivation.1423 SE 10th StreetCape Coral, FL US
Kari KardioRead MoreAFAA-certified fitness instructor Kari Fundingsland did three decades' worth of research before opening Kari Kardio. Beginning with her first Jazzercise center in 1983, she amassed group- and personal-training knowledge at gyms stationed from the United States to Australia. She took note of club fads and their effects, and experimented with different exercise styles to create the Kardio Flex System—a malleable workout template that allows instructors to pair her proven exercises with their own music playing over speakers or inside their heads. Today, more than 30 group classes per week at Kari Kardio attest to the breadth of her industry savvy. With backgrounds in competitive athletics, personal training, and other high-level fitness activities, Kari Kardio's teachers pair time-tested training methods with the latest workout trends. Their classes—which run the gamut from spin to kickboxing to strength training—accommodate all experience levels with safe exercise modifications. Treadmills and stationary bikes line the 9,000-square-foot studio, helping students chase their fitness goals and complete stationary paper routes when not attending classes.1900 Trailwinds DriveFort Myers, FL US

From Belen, the next step was to get to Brus Laguna. There's a boat that leaves very early in the morning from belen for brus, getting there in time to catch the brus-ahuas-puerto lempira boat.
From what I could tell there is not a road from ahuas to Puerto lempira, though I didn't do a whole lot of research. The boat rides through this area are really fun, just ripping along these tiny little rivers and seeing how people live along the shoreline. Every so often we would pop out into a big open bay, cross it, and then be back in the little jungle rivers. I don't remember the lengths of the rides but these were pretty long trips, anywhere from 3 to 6 hours each.
belen to brus
Abandoned drug running boats were everywhere, stripped of motors and electronics.
more abandoned boats
Sometimes it gets really shallow and they jump out to push/pull or pole their way through.
This is at the boat dock in brus, transferring to the boat to ahuas
My six seatmates. The guy sitting behind me had a plaid gangsta hat, jean jacket and jeans, dark sunglasses, a six pack of beer, and a Kalashnikov casually slung over his shoulder. Definitely have to get used to lots of guns in this area.
boat dock in ahuas
um... did somebody forget their shotgun??
cool wheelchair
from ahuas there is a short ride of maybe 20 miles to the boat launch for Puerto lempira. there is only one road. easy ride.
this road dead ends in a muddy slough, where there were kids with canoes who took me the rest of the way down the river to the boat launch area.

HM Griddler No.1
10,000 - 50,000 downloadsAdd this app to your lists
+ By HM Soft
The goal of the game is to paint grid using number clues to get picture.
Attractive solution for spending time at transport and long waiting for something - every puzzle normally takes 15-30 minutes.
They say that men knowing to solve griddlers have at least 100% IQ and protected from Altzheimer!
This release contains a lot of original black-white puzzles of 15x15 and 20x20 size, and you'll find several unique features.
Tags: שחור ופתור 15x15, griddlers, griddlers 20x20, 10x10 nonogramme, nonogramme 20 x 20, nonograms 8, griddler, תמונות שחור ופתור, 15 by 15 nonogram, nonogram.
10 more griddlers
(54 stars)
You'll spend all your time moving from one box to the next with single taps. Then one tap for black, two for white. If you screw up, more tapping. Good puzzles but too cumbersome to be fun.
(54 stars)
This app sucks. I don't get it
(54 stars)
This game is a good implementation of the puzzles, but it would benefit from having a high score system rather than a last score system. This would enable you to try and better previous scores more readily. I would also like to see a user defined mode, so I could enter the details of paper puzzles and solve them
(54 stars)
This made no sence
(54 stars)
Not user friendly :-(

Worst griddler ever
(54 stars)
Keeps me entertained!

I don't have that version here at the moment, but with many of these the optical assembly (complete with aperture) drops into the focusing mount and is held by a retaining ring. That is the way my earlier 8 element is.
Sometimes you can just rotate the whole unit into position by grabbing the front and turning, but don't force. This direction will tend to tighten the threads in doing that, so I think you are likely to need a spanner to loosen the retaining ring. If it is as I've described (just covering my butt), then it is a very simple adjustment for any repair person.
PLEASE DO NOTE: Not all Leica lenses are the same (though most lenses of this vintage and older do thread together in some way). In later lenses the optical unit is GLUED IN. You don't want to be twisting those!
Added thoughts - It won't hurt anything at all to leave it as is. Someone that uses a tripod may even prefer it that way. This has no impact of focus adjustment since the optical unit is not changing distance, just rotating on its base.

At least four people died in four separate traffic accidents overnight in Dallas and Fort Worth.
One of the Dallas incidents involved a hit-and-run motorist on Interstate 35E near Royal Lane.
Police spokesman Senior Cpl. Gerardo Monreal said a Good Samaritan stopped to help with traffic after two vehicles became disabled in one of the northbound lanes around 1:40 a.m. Sunday.
The man, identified as 30-year-old Ronald Glenn Davis Jr. of Denton, turned his back on traffic and was struck by a car. The impact propelled the victim's body into the southbound lanes of I-35E, where he was struck by another vehicle.
Monreal said the driver of the car that hit Davis briefly stopped, then left the scene of the accident, leaving a passenger behind. The driver faces multiple charges when apprehended.
The Dallas County Medical Examiner's office reported there was another fatal accident at Woodall Rodgers Freeway and North Central Expressway near downtown Dallas, but no additional information was available.
In Fort Worth, a driver died in an accident reported at 10:40 p.m. Saturday. It involved two vehicles on Robertson Road, a narrow, two-lane street in rural far northwest Fort Worth.
Police said one of the cars went into a ditch. A person in that vehicle was pronounced dead at the scene after being ejected from the vehicle. He was identified as 63-year-old Larry Thompson of Fort Worth.
Also in Fort Worth, just before 10 p.m. Saturday, one person was killed and another was injured when a sport utility vehicle overturned in the 1800 block of North Riverside Drive.

Coimbatore: Exploitation of plants, animals and microbes will have a negative impact on the environment, said Umesh Kumar, Deputy Director, Central Food and Technological Institute, Mysore.
He was speaking at a seminar on conservation and management of bio-resources at PSGR Krishnammal College for Women.
He said that bio-resources are necessary for the progress of a country.
There was an urgent need to focus on bio resources for posterity.
In various fields of science like bio-physics, bio-chemistry, bio-technology, biology is the major component, though it lagged behind for sometime, but now its importance had been realised. Microbes play an important role in our daily life.Fermented foods like idli, dosa and butter milk contains live bacteria which prevent the binding of bacterium causing intestinal cancer.
Dr. Hoysala N. Chanakya, Centre for Sustainable Technologies, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore delivered a lecture on the utilisation of bio resources for human welfare.
Dr.Pulliah, Krishna Devaraya University, Anantapur spoke on bio-diversity and its conservation.

|Bayesian analysis of multivariate stochastic volatility and dynamic models
|Loddo, Antonello, 1976-
|University of Missouri--Columbia
|We consider a multivariate regression model with time varying volatilities in the error term. The time varying volatility for each component of the error is of unknown nature, may be deterministic or stochastic. We propose Bayesian stochastic search as a feasible variable selection technique for the regression and volatility equations. We develop Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms that generate a posteriori restrictions on the elements of both the regression coefficients and the covariance matrix of the error term. Efficient parametrization of the time varying covariance matrices is studied using different modified Cholesky decompositions. We propose a hierarchal approach for selection of the volatility equation's variance components. We extend the results of the first in order to apply the stochastic search algorithm to dynamic model settings. We develop a MCMC algorithm that performs a stochastic model selection for the coefficients and the covariance matrix of the latent process of a dynamic model, thus making the choice of the best model only based on probabilistic considerations.

Girl students carry out 'Varalakshmi pooja' on road protesting State division
Instead of performing the auspicious 'Varalakshmi pooja' at a temple during this 'Sravana Sukravaram', the girls took to roads and carried out the pooja in front of the public on Friday. It was indeed a protest with a difference opposing State bifurcation move.
The members of Samaikyandhra Vidyardhi JAC Girls' Wing took part in the pooja held at Atmakur bus stand. A large number of people passing by the road stopped to witness the unique protest by the students.
Later, the girls raised slogans against the UPA government's decision to divide the State. They expressed concern that the youth of coastal Andhra and Rayalaseema regions would lose countless job opportunities if they had to be separated from the fast growing city of Hyderabad.
Samaikyandhra JAC convener Krishna Yadav said that there was no question of the students going easy on the bifurcation issue till the Central government withdraws its decision.
Samaikyandhra Rashtra Parirakshana Vedika, APNGOs' Association and the students held a relay hunger camp at NGO Home in continuation of the ongoing agitation.
Keywords: Samaikyandhra agitation, united Andhra demand, Telangana issue, Andhra bifurcation, Samaikyandhra Vidyardhi JAC Girls' Wing

Said this in another thread about bringing McGuire on board:
Well, it is my personal belief that in the new NHL, amateur scouting is more important than pro-scouting, and that's where the Gainey/Gauthier regime failed miserably. The scouting staff in Montreal is about 1/3 of what it should be. I'll agree that the pro-scouting has been horrible for the most part, but it's beyond me how we as fans knew the Kaberle deal was a bad one, same for Bourque. That's not even pro-scouting, that's not willing to pay for a plane ticket to watch said player play.
There are good young players in place right now. For the upcoming crop that will be making their way, hopefully, to the AHL next year, I'm not as sold on them as some of you are, but hey, they are what they are, prospects.
I wouldn't go out looking for a new veteran group as a) the existing one is still under contract and b) by the time their contracts are up, we'll be talking about how some of these younger players have grown into veterans.
So while I somewhat agree with your observation, I still feel a rebuild is needed in Montreal, maybe not to a full Edmontonian extent, but it should be approached that way, i.e. trading away veteran players to stock up on pics and prospects. I feel McGuire would be the man for the job.
As I'm typing this, I'm also making another somewhat related point in that the organization needs a rebuild (duh) meaning once you do have those picks and prospects, you must have the right personel to develop them, and that's not to be overlooked by the new GM.

text: I am training for my very first 2 half marathons! I am wondering how to help with getting sick after running? I seem to be ok when I run in the morning but when I do my running at night I tend to get really sick!! I wait 3-4 hours after eating before running and I drink plenty of water everyday! I run 3.12 miles 3 days a week sometimes in the morning sometimes at night. And I do my long runs on the weekend with crosstraining on the other 2 days during the week.. My long run this weekend will be 5 miles.. The runs during the week are 9.16 which is great for me seeing as 2 weeks ago I was 10.25. I am just wondering what I can do to make it so I don't get so sick after my runs because it is not fun feeling the need to vomit the rest of the night after my runs!
