Thanks Erik. I know it's the internet but I'm still amazed how I can show somebody on the other side of the world my backyard and it does something for you. Glad you left a note on the thread.
As far as the "stop and take time to really see the surroundings" -attitude I really had a fine example of that this last weekend. Somehow I managed to turn only 250 miles into an 18 hour ride! That's a lot of looking around. But that was the point of this particular ride.
It's a time of year I really look forward to, and any locals should pay attention if you like what I do. While the high Sierra Passes are still closed, my favorite, Sonora Pass (Hwy 108), was opened to Kennedy Meadows . This is only about 10 miles from the actual pass, and while tons of goodness waits up top ,the highway to that point has some of my favorite sights. Better yet, it's currently a dead end, one way in and back out,this is what makes it special for a few weeks here. Most won't bother to ride it because you can't go through, and until fishing season opens the sportsman don't bother either. ALL MINE! No traffic, no law enforcement , very few people . Being it's such a short ride I'm forced to take my time, or I could be thee and back home before lunch.
The ride starts up through the foothills and as I get into the trees the smell of pine inside my helmet had me let out an audible "oh yeah!". I did refrain from doing a fist pump motion in the air though. Again, with the drought, the snow level is high and mostly small patches. I'm probably one of the few riders out here that will complain there isn't enough snow close to the road...in my book that adds character. Some of the shaded sections still have enough to make a postcard ride, isn't this way more interesting than summer??
First stop of the day has me at a familiar spot I almost always stop at. I've photographed it from every angle/condition and didn't think today would be special, but still wanted to walk to the edge for a look and enjoy the moment. Funny how when I'm not expecting much the light will show a subtle detail that makes it a moment.
Probably killed an hour there...what a way to waste time huh? Just for quick reference here's one of my favorite shots of these narrows I took a few years ago
Not much further up the hill every direction is simply the grandeur that brings me back. I still think tiny sections of this area would be the highlight of many parks and here the are almost run-of-the-mill until you take it in and notice each one.
O.K., now it's story time. I turn into Kennedy Meadows and ride down to the pack station which is abandoned for the most part except one old timer shoveling snow, being it's the two of us out there I roll over to talk. Right away we strike up a conversation about the local area, and I mention I'm always looking for unique photos. He informs me that he has a photo of what they think might be Bigfoot down by the river. When he says he has it with him I was off the bike anxious to see.
Seems one of the caretakers was taking shots of the river with a camera phone, and it wasn't until later on the computer they saw a shape that doesn't belong . Looking at the photo it MUST be authentic, because like any true bigfoot sighting it was blurry with little detail, but still I could see what they were talking about. Knowing how shadows and tree stumps can play tricks on the mind I immediately question what else it could be. He then offers to show me where it was taken, which I took him up on, and he also offers me a beer (love mountain folk).
By lining up reference points I think I was pretty close to where the shooter was standing, looking across the river, everything else was there except "Bigfoot". I couldn't even come up with something that could be mistaken for it. Now I'm a pretty logical guy, but I also love lore. I don't know what it was in the picture, but I do know for certain there was something in the photo that isn't there now.
My new friend "Crusty" showing me the sighting spot.
I hung out awhile shooting the breeze. Day was flying by, but I wasn't going to screw it up by being in a hurry. Thought I'd swing by "Columns of the Giants" for a quick look. If you've never been there, stop next time, it's a 10 minute walk from the road. Crazy volcanic rock formations similar to Devils Postpile, and actually quite a bit bigger.
This shot shows MAYBE 25% of the ridge, it's so big it's hard to take in.
I'd been there by myself for maybe 20 minutes when I heard a distant yell and realized I wasn't alone. Pulled out the Telephoto lens for a look at other enjoying the moment in their favorite way.
A guy and a gal doing it instead of dreaming. Cool stuff. (sorry for the size of this photo but you just have to see the detail)
I continued to ride to many of my favorite spots that I haven't seen since fall just to check their status. Wow it's already getting that wonderful late day light that is so inviting but also makes you realize the day is winding down. Still in no hurry.
An evening moonrise just adds to the day.
Didn't really try hard for a sunset photo, just sat and took it all in. By the time I got rolling the sun was down and I was in the Twilight Zone. Looking at the large moon had me thinking about night photography and making plans for a "later" date. Then I said why not now? no better time than the present......that AND I really wasn't ready to go home yet.
How many of you have stopped at Donnells Vista? Probably many as it's a popular spot and the view from the cliff is spectacular. How many of you have rolled in after dark with the place all to yourself and walked down to the overlook? Probably not as many. The moon lit up the granite like a dream-scape, no flashlight needed.
These trees always have character, even more after dark.
Falling stars over the reservoir. (well, actually the movement of the Earth, but falling stars sound way more romantic)
This is the sort of thing I live for. Looking at scenes I can't believe are real WHILE I'm looking at them.
I hung out until about 11pm enjoying it all. I didn't even realize temps had already dropped into the 30s until I noticed my breath and the wet seat on my bike as I mounted up. Home around 1 am. For not having a plan (like I ever do) the day sure was packed full of life long memories made.

I originally composed it with the lower branches over the moon. When I noticed the curved branch above I figured I should hang out some and wait for the moon to move to position itself.

Naw, he not a hobby photographer, he doesn't know it yet but a professional if ever there was. Better than most I've seen.
Do you use a tripod on all photo's? I don't seen one strapped to your mount. And how much camera gear do you pack?
Please keep more photo's coming our way.

Most of the photos are handheld, I do pull out my tripod for anything long exposure like the night shots and moving water. Yes, I carry one in my Jessie bags, If I'm traveling and need the space for something else I'll strap it on top.
I carry , my Camera and 4 lenses and a few filters, a kit that works pretty well for me. I also bring a second camera, a P&S that does amazing Macro and doubles as a backup in case something ever goes wrong with my main camera.
Believe it or not that is pretty minimalist Are you doing something similar? If all the gear isn't your thing I still think some of the newer high end P&Ss or mirrorless cameras, as long as they have the ability to shoot in RAW and full manual, could take care of most of the things I do. Then you would have one small camera that fits in a tank bag and done. Many of the Bonneville shots in this thread were done with a Canon G11 because that's all I want to carry on that bike.
I recently bought a cheapo "diopter" lens that can attach to the G11, which allows you to shoot Macro at full zoom and be in focus a little further away. Last weekend when I was shooting the rainbow shot in the narrows I sat and waited a bit to see how the moving sun would affect the positioning. While sitting there I noticed these Bees on the rock doing their thing and decided to have some fun. Really tough as the depth of field is maybe a millimeter or two.
Funny here I was in the middle of amazing mountains and streams and all of my attention was focused on something the size of a dime

One more chapter in my Yosemite blog.....er, I mean Ride Report
Had maybe the last chance to enjoy a taste of winter last weekend. A storm blew through that shut down some of my favorite spots again and left chain control in others until Saturday morning. Restrictions were lifted early for getting into Yosemite, so I couldn't pass up a chance like this.
Thought I'd share a few photos from the day and just let them do most of the talking, I can't think of any more adjectives to describe how awe inspiring this place is in these conditions.
Just past the entrance it was winter
Made new friend at Tunnel View
The landscapes are incredible, but this time I tried to focus on some more of the details that often go overlooked here when everything else is so overwhelming.
Try to use the trees to scale what a person would look like on these rock walls
Even the familiar Half Dome looks different when seen in more detail
As far as I know this seasonal run -off waterfall is unnamed
This Hiker feels small I'm sure while he tries to take in Vernal Falls from the Mist Trail.
Even the road home has a sense of wonder

Armed with a hot cup of coffee and fresh clear mind I took a long, slow, review of your photo's. They're so good and inspirational. I'm amazed when thinking about the bazillion people who've passed by the same fields, pastures and mountains, never seeing what you have.
Last week I visited the Okla. Museum of Art where there was temporary exhibition of A. Adams and Brett Weston. Although I've seen most of the photo's before it's always a pleasure. But, I'm here to tell you, you've got the right stuff.
Backing up a bit, both Ansell and Edward Weston go down in history partially because their work is a historical record. Much like the Indian photo's taken by Curtis at the turn of century. Your pix, in my opinion, differ from theirs. Yours bring a statement of peace and beauty which we can all enjoy. It's the kind of beauty we can hopefully preserve. It's ours for the taking.
Your snaps got Soul.
Thanks for sharing and best of luck in the future.

Sent from my Nexus S using XDA
this is way outta left field but since everyone on here is a genius i figured i might be able to get some help. its somewhat android related.
i'm staying at a friend's house for a bit and i'm having trouble seeing their wifi network. its got wpa-psk security with a 20 character password. other people have apple things (ipad, iphone) connected but my ns4g, nook simple, and w7 laptop cant even see it.
i've tried googling this a million different ways but i cant seem to find anything that helps. is there really wifi that can [I]only[I] connect with apple products!? geez, that company really does drive me insane sometimes
I don't know what from you guys are running but I've been running stock 4.0.4 rooted with this kernel. Its been so smooth I haven't needed to oc.
As far as roxxoen's issue it sounds like they have it hidden which means you would have to manually enter the router login info.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium
I'm also running stock and love it. I've been running v19 for awhile and love it but, I haven't been able to connect to my laptop via usb since running the kernel, without doing a reboot while my phone is connected. I just now decided to turn off Fast Charge thru NSTools, and it connected immediately when plugged in. Anyone else had/has problem connecting? I'm hoping I didn't miss someone pointing this out somewhere. Btw, great kernel.

No matter how careful you are when capturing your photographic images, there are going to be issues that you find later—whether it's little spots or blemishes, or bigger problems like color casts or chromatic aberration. In this workshop, Tim Grey shares his techniques for cleaning up your images with Adobe Photoshop. After getting an overview of image-cleanup concepts and tools, learn how to remove spots, correct color problems, eliminate noise, fix red eye, and much more. Tim also shares advanced techniques like making gradient adjustments, extending the frame, and using multiple exposures to remove people from an image. This course covers all you need to know to remove distractions in an image that keep your genius from shining through.
The Content-Aware technology included in Photoshop is really a tremendous help when it comes to image cleanup. But many photographers seem to only be aware that the Content-Aware option is available for the Spot Healing Brush tool, but it is actually also available as a Fill command. In many cases, you will find that makes it a little bit easier to work with your image cleanup tasks. In other words, using a selection as a basis of an image cleanup rather than painting in particular areas of the photo.
The only catch with Content-Aware Fill feature is that you're not able to wok on a separate empty image layer. In theory, you could work directly on the Background Image Layer replacing problematic pixels with new pixels. But that can be problematic if you ever want to go back and refine your work a little bit later. So instead, in the case of working with the Content-Aware Fill feature, I recommend creating a copy of your Background Image Layer. So, you can drag the thumbnail for the Background Image Layer down to the Create New Layer button at the bottom of the Layers panel. And then, when you release the mouse, that will create a background copy. So now, I have a copy of my underlying image that I can use for my image cleanup work.
I'll then create a selection in the image. Here, I'd just like to get rid of this branch at the top left. It's just a bit of a distraction. I like the branches with the blossoms obviously, set against the clouds and the sky. But this branch, out of focus and just a tiny little bit of it, it's not so nice. And in fact, I notice too, that we have just a tiny little bit of a blossom or part of a branch showing up here as well. So perhaps I'd like to include that in my image clean up also. I'll go ahead and choose the Lasso tool and then I'll click and draw a Lasso around the branch here.
And then, I'll choose the Add to Selection option, and simply click and drag around the other blemish here. So now, I've identified both areas that I want to clean up with the selection. I can then chose Edit > Fill from the menu. I could also press Shift+F5 by the way, to bring up the Fill dialog. I can then choose Content-Aware from the Hues pop-up and click OK. Photoshop will then process those selected areas so that those areas are cleaned up automatically, looking at other areas of the photo in order to identify how to best fill those areas, so that the blemishes are removed and the rest of the image just blends in seamlessly.
I'll choose Select > Deselect from the menu in order to remove the selection. And you can see that cleanup was done quite seamlessly indeed. I'll go ahead and turn off the visibility of that Background Copy layer, and then turn it back on. And you'll see that the cleanup, with Content-Aware Fill, has worked remarkably well. I'll go ahead and rename this image Cleanup layer, I'll just call it Cleanup, so that I don't forget why this additional layer is there in the future. I can of course then Save this image to keep all of these layers intact and continue working to fine-tune the overall appearance of the photo.

Legislators dismiss predatory loan bills
Memphian's testimony gets cut off
NASHVILLE -- Legislators Tuesday killed a package of bills sought by Memphis lawmakers and consumer advocates to curb predatory lending practices in the title pledge, payday and mortgage loan industries.
The chairman of a House subcommittee cut off brief testimony by Memphis lawyer Webb Brewer as he explained how title-pledge lenders can mask earnings in annual reports to the state by paying owners "exorbitant" salaries as employees and reporting it an expense.
"We get the picture," said Rep. Richard Montgomery, R-Sevierville, as he halted Brewer's presentation. With title-pledge loans, borrowers put up the title to their cars as security for the lender.
Brewer attended the utilities and banking subcommittee to support a bill that would limit fees title-pledge lenders can charge borrowers and another to create a voluntary mediation program on some mortgage foreclosures in Shelby County. He was not allowed to speak on the mortgage bill.
Both bills, sponsored by Rep. Johnnie Turner, D-Memphis, died without members having to vote because no member would second motions for passage.
The panel also effectively killed two bills by Rep. Jeanne Richardson, D-Memphis, that would cap interest on payday loans at 100 percent per year and assess a one-time $2,500 fee on payday lenders to pay for financial literary programs across the state.
It delayed action on a bill banning payday lending via the Internet by out-of-state lenders without stores in Tennessee, to give its sponsor, Rep. Mike Stewart, D-Nashville, time to try to work out a compromise.
The state Department of Financial Institutions' annual report on the title-pledge industry said 765 title-pledge stores in Tennessee entered into 161,417 new loan agreements for $103.1 million in loans during 2008. State law limits such loans to $2,500, and 86 percent of them were for $1,000 or less.
Title-lenders are allowed to charge 2 percent interest plus fees totaling 20 percent every 30 days, for an effective annual percentage rate of 264 percent. Brewer proposed allowing the 20 percent fee to be charged once, for a maximum APR of 44 percent.
The report said a title-pledge customer who borrowed $1,000 could end up paying $3,970 over 23 months.
Brewer expressed frustration afterward with a process that allowed a subcommittee to kill bills for three consecutive years. Brewer also expressed disappointment with the Bredesen administration's financial institutions commissioner, Greg Gonzales.

ALLEGAN, Mich., Nov. 1, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The Perrigo Company (NYSE: PRGO; TASE) announced today that it has initiated a voluntary, nationwide product recall to the retail level of 18 batches of its acetaminophen infant suspension liquid, 160 mg/5 mL, sold in 2 oz. and 4 oz. bottles with syringes in a box under the store brand products listed below. The recall is being initiated because of the remote potential that a small number of packages might contain an oral dosing syringe without dose markings. The correct syringe should have a white or yellow plunger with specific dose markings for 1.25 mL, 2.5 mL, 3.75 mL, and 5 mL. If the product's syringe has these dose markings, consumers can continue to use the product while following labeled use instructions.

Using an oral syringe without dose markings can result in inaccurate dosing, especially in infants who could mistakenly get too high a dose.
Commenting on this market action, Perrigo's Chairman, President and CEO Joseph C. Papa stated, "There are no issues or concerns with respect to the safety or efficacy of the product, only the potential that the oral dosing device in a relatively small number of packages could be unmarked. Out of an abundance of caution, we are taking this measure to maintain the highest possible product quality standards for our retail customers and consumers. While we cannot be certain that any of these unmarked dosing devices were released into our customers' supply chains, taking this action is the right thing to do." Perrigo has not received any reports or compl

Health Care Hero Nominations
St. Anthony's Hospice, Henderson
I would like to nominate St. Anthony's Hospice for the Health Care Hero.
The only way I can describe the love they have for everyone is (that they are) truly angels sent from heaven above. They took excellent care of my mother when she was there back in February 2010. I didn't think it was possible for someone to prepare you for death until my mother, Ruby Tramill, was on her way to heaven.
Although I miss my mother very much and always will, St. Anthony's Hospice made it a lot easier on me and my family by the way they were with our mom.
Without a doubt, they deserve to be the Health Care Hero now and for always.
St. Anthony's Hospice is truly God's angels sent to help celebrate the journey to life after death.
Alma Hamilton, Henderson, Ky.
Dr. William Wilhelmus
The doctor has been dead for many years, so it is a little late to honor a truly great doctor and humanitarian. He had a devotion to his patients during the Great Depression era that most doctors simply couldn't match today.
His office was in St. Wendel, Ind., but his practice of medicine was at the bedside of his patient. Back in those days, the ailing patient wasn't told to go to a MEC center or the emergency room. The doctor came when called, and most of the time he knew he wouldn't be paid because few people had any money.
Dr. Wilhelmus was a breed long gone. I'm sure he felt that his gift of healing was God-given because he was a devout Catholic. If a patient wasn't of his faith and he felt he or she needed spiritual guidance, he contacted a minister of the patient's faith.
Without all of the wonder drugs of today, he was a wonder at pulling pneumonia sufferers out of the jaws of death and back to health.
If I had need of treatment, when Doc's car came into view or I was taken to his office, I was sure I'd recover.
During my 83 years, I have been treated by some other really good doctors, but none will ever quite reach the status of Dr. Wiliam Wilhelmus, country doctor deluxe.
Laverne Peerman, Evansville
Dr. Mohammad A. Allaw
I would like to nominate my Health Care Hero.
Dr. Mohammad A. Allaw and his assistant Rebecca Barrett have been seeing my husband and me since 1999.
I am 76 years old and he is the best doctor I have had in my whole life.
Back in April 2007, I had a stent put into my heart and was put on Plavix. I was home about five days and had rectal bleeding. I called his office and went right over there and was admitted to the hospital immediately. His nurse took me right over to admissions, and they started giving me blood. Dr. Allaw said if I had not gotten to him when I did, I would have died. I had lost two pints of blood and was in the hospital three days.
I like Dr. Allaw because he gets right on the problem while other doctors hem-haw around like it might be this or that.
Bernadine Roudybush, Evansville
Dr. Mary Tadros, endocrinology, Deaconess Clinic Downtown
I would like to nominate Dr. Mary Tadros, endocrinology, Deaconess Clinic Downtown.
She has guidance, knowledge and support for you and is very kind and patient. Call her anytime and she will return the call the same day. Sure would like for her to be a winner; she has helped me a hundred fold with my diabetes for many years.
Thomas Trainer, Evansville

Mary Ann Wilson, registered nurse
Several months ago, I developed chills and a fever. Thinking I had a short-term virus, I didn't call my doctor's office (Vivien Tucker) for five days. Mary Ann Wilson, a registered nurse, answered the phone.
When I asked for an appointment "later in the week" and she said I should come in that afternoon. I said I didn't feel like getting ready. She said what I looked like didn't matter and insisted that I come on in. I still hesitated, and Mary Ann became adamant, almost demanding that I come in. Finally, I agreed.
The nurse practitioner who examined me suspected that I had pneumonia and sent me to the hospital immediately. There it was determined that I indeed had pneumonia plus, with other things, a raging urinary tract infection. They said I was right on the verge of being septic and probably would have died had I not gotten there when I did.
Many people participated in my care and treatment over the next six days but none of them would have had a chance to help me had it not been for Mary Ann Wilson's insistence that I come to the doctor's office that day.

Deaconess Hospital doctors
May 2009 on Mother's Day, I awoke to a surprise. My married grandson stood looking down at me with a rose. I asked what are doing here and he replied "It's Mother's Day Grandma."
May 6, I had an automobile accident and went to the hospital. Six hours later revealed a heart situation. I'd had a heart attack during the follow up of all the accident paper work.
I was kept at Deaconess for a look see to solve whatever was wrong.
The next day Dr. Edward Moore and his cath nurse, Brian Miller, found a widow maker. Reported to Dr. Lee Wagmeister, an unbelievably remarkable surgeon, just as Dr. Moore and Brian were at getting to the reason for the surgery — a lump in the artery that filled both sides of my heart. They didn't stop until they located it distinctively.
Next day in a four-hour surgery, Dr. Wagmeister did a three bypass successfully. I was 78 years old! All went well until I went home where I developed a lung full of blood. Delay getting to the hospital endangered me. I was almost out of it.
On arrival, both Dr. Aziz Mehrzahd and Dr. Larry Best, one at my head and the other at my foot, were shouting orders and shooting something with a long needle in my tummy.
I awoke Mother's Day alive! To be able to see my grandson and now his babies.
Thank you, Dr. Mehrzahd, Dr. Best, Dr. Moore, Dr. Wagmeister, Brian Miller and all the wonderful ICU nurses. Deaconess is a Health Hero team.
Sabra Burger, Evansville
Ann Rene Crane, nurse
I would like to nominate our daughter, Ann Rene Crane, as a Health Care Hero. She personifies what we believe is an example of what a nurse should be.
She is the person we would like to be caring for us if we were ill or in the hospital. She would be the person standing beside us understanding our individual needs and directing our individual care.
When Ann finished her education, there were no jobs in the Evansville area in Med-Surg. So she worked in Madisonville at Regional Medical Center and drove back and forth to Newburgh each day.
Eventually, she was able to work in Evansville at St. Mary's Medical Center. There came a time when there was an opening in surgery, and she was torn whether to leave an area with much patient contact. We talked about it, how she might be the last person a patient sees before receiving anesthesia and how she could calm a child or an adult. We all know how frightening that would be if we were in that position. We would hope for a skilled, empathic nurse who inspires confidence.
Ann has been employed at St. Mary's now for 25 years. She daily strives to make her patients feel more comfortable and safe.
She attempts to hone her skills and educate herself on what is the latest and newest in her field.
She works to treat everyone with respect, the doctors, other staff and her co-workers. She seeks to be an excellent nurse and to be the person you would hope to be in charge of your care.
Paula Griesbacher, Newburgh

Another NFL Sunday, another Packers win and another starter lost due to injury.The beat goes on in Green Bay where the Packers won their third in a row behind Aaron Rodgers and an improved defense. And as usual, they lost another starter to injury as tight end Jermichael Finley was knocked out of the game and taken off the field on a stretcher.In the meanwhile the Cleveland Browns, as if there were any doubt, will be looking for a new quarterback after the 2013 season.Here's the five things we learned from Sunday's game at Lambeau Field.1. The Green Bay Packers have an elite quarterback and the Cleveland Browns don't. Not that we're breaking new ground with this information but the Packers are a depleted bunch but still handled the Browns, a team with comparable talent everywhere else on the field but quarterback. This makes all the difference. Rodgers covers up issues with his play. Brandon Weeden is a career backup who may be playing in a different city next season.2. Eddie Lacy i...

Bosse girls win Mount Vernon track meet
Freshman Yamani Hunter won the long jump and was a member of two first-place relay teams in lifting Bosse High School's girls' track squad to victory on Saturday in the Mount Vernon Invitational.
"She's just very talented," said Bulldogs coach Cathy Ferris. "She came in with a 17-9 long jump as an eighth grader."
Bosse won the meet with 103 points. Mount Vernon was second with 89 and Gibson Southern third with 63.
Hunter took the long jump with a leap of 16-11. She ran a leg of the 1,600-meter relay, which set a meet record with a time of 4:08.71. Other members of the team were Khryssnee Madison, Jasmine Washington and Kennedy Madison. The first time they ran together, they were timed in 4:16.
"We ran a 4:12 against Reitz on Tuesday and shaved another four seconds off it," Ferris said. "We really didn't realize we had broken the record until we got back on the bus."
If the record was announced over the public address system, Ferris said she didn't hear it.
Hunter also was part of the winning 400 relay team, which was clocked at 51.70. She also finished third in the 100.
Central senior Taylor Wiley set a meet record, winning the 800 in 2:18.21.
Memorial freshman Aaliyah Armstead won the 100 (13.12) and 200 (27.57). Gibson Southern freshman Jordyn Milheiser was another double winner. She swept the 100 hurdles (16.40) and 300 hurdles (47.95).
BASEBALL: Sam Griggs had two hits, two runs batted in and three runs scored to spark Memorial to a 10-5 win over host Central. The Tigers improved to 8-7 overall and 4-4 in the Southern Indiana Athletic Conference. Cole Hagan hit a two-run homer for the Bears.

Problems when uploading multiple images[edit]
(Copied from the Help Desk.) I just uploaded 33 pictures I had taken at a French Cabaret Show in Helsinki, Finland in last December, after getting permission from the casino staff. Since there were so many, I used UploadWizard instead of the old upload form I normally use. UploadWizard failed to show me a thumbnail of any of the pictures, so I added the descriptions and categories going by the order they appeared in on the directory where I uploaded them from. However, UploadWizard didn't upload them in this order, causing most of the descriptions and categories to go all wrong. I had to fix them by hand. Why didn't UploadWizard upload the images in the order they appeared in when I selected them? Why couldn't UploadWizard show me thumbnails? The pictures themselves seem to have uploaded OK. And if this happens, is there any easier way to solve it than what I did now? JIP (talk) 19:49, 19 March 2015 (UTC)
- I have the same problem. I need to upload 30 images at once, and I need them sorted from the first to the last one. The wizard seems to sort them randomly, maybe depending on which one gets uploaded faster than the others. This problem did not exist some months ago. It was working fine. Can someone help?--Jordiferrer (talk) 12:25, 9 April 2015 (UTC)

Bug in the upload wiazrd form[edit]
Hi there,
During the "Describe" step, if the "next" button is clicked while having entered a title with an incorrect character, such as the slash "/" character, then the "next" button will then disappear from the form, forcing me to restart the upload from the beginning.
Kind regards, Christopher.

Problem when my login is thrown off[edit]
I have experienced the following problem several times. If I am using the Upload Wizard to upload some images, Wikimedia sometimes automatically throws me off my login without telling me. If I then, without knowing that I've been thrown off, try to complete the upload, the wizard just returns an error message saying "You must be logged in to save files in the upload stash.". Yes, of course, I know that, but I WAS logged on, you just threw me off automatically without telling me. What's really annoying is that the wizard doesn't allow me to fix the problem by logging on and then attempting another upload of the same images I've already prepared for upload. Instead, I have to go to another page, logon, and then start the wizard procedure all over again from scratch. This is just not good enough - definitely a bug that needs to be fixed, and asap.

Photo Upload Licence[edit]
How do I indicate a non-existent licence for an old photo that belongs to my family?
Jetrev27 (talk) 06:30, 27 May 2015 (UTC)
- Hi Jetrev27, first of all it doesn't really matter who owns the physical photographs. The important question is: who owns the copyright? – which usually translates to: who took the photograph? If it was taken by a now deceased family member and you are the only heir (or all other potential heirs have agreed), {{PD-heirs}} may be the way to go. I'm not sure if the UploadWizard offers this as a license option, though. In that case, you may need to upload it with a different license and change that to {{PD-heirs}} immediately afterwards. In any case, please provide as much information about photo as possible (who took it when and where? if it was published before: when and where was it published first?). Hope that helps a bit? --El Grafo (talk) 08:17, 27 May 2015 (UTC)
Not working[edit]
If the form gets a error that the file name already exists, the submit button disapears for ever and there is NO way to get i back - so you have to start all over again!

Yasmani Grandal goes yard twice in historic performance
Jul 1, 2012, 9:52 AM EDT
Anthony Rizzo isn't the only youngster doing it big.
Padres catcher Yasmani Grandal, making his first career major league start, slugged a solo home run from the right side of the plate in the fourth inning of Saturday's 8-4 defeat of the Rockies. He then hit a two-run shot from the left side of the dish in the sixth.
According to the Associated Press, via NBC Sports, it was the first time in major league history that a player had homered from each side of the plate for the first two hits of his career. "I can't describe how remarkable this is," Grandal said later. "Just getting the call-up was surreal. To get called up and hit two home runs for my first two hits, it's just incredible."
The 23-year-old Cuban switch-hitter was acquired this past winter from the Reds in the Mat Latos trade. He's expected to see regular action behind the plate in the wake of Nick Hundley's demotion.

Grandal > Meseraco. Unfortunately.
- contraryguy - Jul 1, 2012 at 11:00 AM
Well, we'll see. At this point it's like judging draft picks… takes years to score it. I don't think Mez will match Grandal for offense, but I'd rather have Mez behind the plate.
- metalhead65 - Jul 1, 2012 at 1:04 PM
you can't judge that as long as meseraco only plays 2 games a week due to the reds having a pretty good veteran in hannigan. plus it was one game,let's see how he does playing everyday the rest of the season.

Holy &#$@.
- randygnyc - Jul 1, 2012 at 11:38 AM
Clap-clap. Another remarkable baseball feat. (2 cycles within 2 weeks). Now this kids first 2 hits are homers, from both sides. That's why we watch these games. After 40+ years of watching, I still see stuff that is nothing short of marvelous.
- gloccamorra - Jul 2, 2012 at 11:03 AM
Yup. Even a game between 4th and 5th place clubs 20 games under .500 can be worth watching. Sometimes.
Of course, it's not that unusual for a 6′-2″ 220 lb. catcher to hit two homers, but what about Alexi Amarista, 5′-7″ 150 lbs hitting two in the same game? He swings a bat almost as big as he is, and apparently adopted Ted Williams' swing.

ons, removal from service of excess naval vessels and their support systems, and cleaning up of defense waste sites. The latter issue is especially keen in Russia due to its totalitarian past, which resulted in the worst nuclear contamination in the world. One additional common problem is the need to consolidate SNF to protect it against terrorist attacks. To ease this problem the Yucca Mountain repository will begin to operate in 2010. This will not, however, entirely solve the problem, as much more waste has already been accumulated in the United States than can be handled at the repository.
There are substantial differences in the U.S. and Russian approaches to the problem of SNF management. While reprocessing and recycling are not banned in Russia, they are in the United States. The reconciliation of this problem is interim storage, which defers the decision. This leaves the doors open for recycling the SNF in the future, when appropriate technologies are safe and efficient.
In other countries dealing with nuclear energy the situation is even worse than in the United States. The SNF is widely dispersed, and the related risks are high. While Russia is capable of providing valuable services to the nuclear community, dealing with many countries is a difficult and lengthy process. The good news is that 80–90 percent of all SNF in the world is virtually controlled by just one country, the United States. Therefore, U.S.-Russian cooperation is extremely important to the entire world.
The SNF problem is acute now, and what are the prospects for the future? We cannot agree with an earlier presentation in which it was argued that nothing will change substantially in the next 10 years because existing energy infrastructure is based upon fossil fuels. First, nuclear energy fits well into the existing energy infrastructure. Second, the Kyoto Protocol shows that the public wants greenhouse gas reduction, and governments usually do what the public wants. Third, a hydrogen fuel cell engine will be developed in the near future; in fact, development is near completion. There are experimental buses and cars in Vancouver driven by hydrogen. The share of renewable energy is growing tremendously. We expect the growth rate of nuclear energy production to increase dramatically as soon as economic mechanisms enforcing the Kyoto Protocol come into play. Therefore, the SNF problem will be aggravated.
SNF-related problems are broken down here into political, economic, social, and technical issues. Economic problems are briefly considered here along with major political issues.
The amounts of SNF in many countries are not sufficient to make national SNF management economically viable. The costs of qualified human and natural resources are different. Exporting SNF to Russia would enforce economies of scale and scope. The costs of qualified human and natural resources are competitive in Russia.
Global political benefits of SNF management are significant contributions to nonproliferation of nuclear weapons, increased security against terrorist attacks, adherence to the Kyoto Protocol through encouraging nuclear energy pro-

"Heap on more wood! the wind is chill; But let it whistle as it will, We'll keep our Christmas merry still."
"I think that I shall never see A poem lovely as a tree Poems are made by fools like me, But only God can make a tree"
"I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next."
"I froze before the keyboard. I couldn't think of a damn thing to say. No poems, no prose, no words. The pain cannot even be alchemized into art, into words, into something you can chalk up to an interesting experience because the pain itself, its intensity, is so great that it has woven itself into your system so deeply that there is no way to objectify it or push it outside or find its beauty within."
"She opened up a book of poems and handed it to me written by an Italian poet from the 13th century and every one of them words rang true and glowed like burning coal pouring off of every page like it was written in my soul from me to you."
"Leprechauns, castles, good luck and laughter.Lullabies, dreams and love ever after. Poems and songs with pipes and drums. A thousand welcomes when anyone comes... That's the Irish for you!"

I know you all hate the MLS, but hey...I'm from Seattle and I love my home teams. This goal was fucking awesome last night.
I suppose I shouldn't have jumped the gun on calling everyone out on hating it. I just know it isn't discussed much here, and I typically get a negative response from people who are fans of the sport, but not that league. You are right though, Sunday is going to be absolute mayhem. I won't be traveling to that match, but Portland will be up here later in the summer and we go down there one more time this season and I definitely plan on attending that one.
According to every other website, you were wrong.

I'm actually going to my first MLS game in 9 days, SJ vs. LA @ Stanford. Got seats by the corner flag, hopefully I get to heckle Beckham.
Ronaldo. I got to admit...that guy is fucking good looking, dude.
I've been thinking about taking in my first MLS game as well, but they are so shitty compared to the world stage. The in-precise passing, the 3/4 full crowds. It's like you're paying for a third tier class of football. Rather save up for something else...like a match at Old Trafford. The World Cup is in Rio in two years.
Sounds like MLS isn't for you. I like to support my local team however good or bad they are. Luckily, LA Galaxy are my local team here in socal. Back in England, it was Bristol Rovers, who I still follow.
Upcoming shows:
Nice piece of bait and switch for Real Madrid vs Juventus in Las Vegas on Aug 5th.
Juve had to cancel due to schedule problems and Club Santos are the replacement opponents for Real. The promoters are saying 'no refunds' because teams and players are subject to change. Personally that is bullcrap and if you push for a refund I think you'll get it.
I imagine most of the MLS fans have moved here from other countries and/or have a deep family heritage in soccer. Hell, I played organized till fourteen and hit it recreationally on occasion, but still not really bothered with the local team's intricacies. The sport is just way behind on the general tiered list of importance for Americans. Not trying to be Debbie Downer. My bad. Still a great game at it's heart.
This would be crazy: "US, Mexico to renew rivalry Aug. 15 in Mexico City"
Come on, Greece! I know it's the longest of long shots. Damn, Germany looks dominant so far. They're just passing it around at will like Greece isn't even on the field.

Nice Xabi header. France is all over the place.
Yawn. Boring game.
Upcoming shows:
Why I oughta...
Upcoming shows:
Yes, I can't wait to wear my red, white, and GREEN tomorrow.
France were pretty awful in the first half, but I felt they played much better in the second; I wonder how much their locker-room shouting match after the Sweden game influenced Blanc's team selection.
As for tomorrow's game, I think Italy will really miss Chiellini in the back - he's been their best defender.
England should win tomorrow. From what I've seen I fully expect a Germany/Portugal rematch in the Finals to decide the winner this go around.
Let's go England!
AAaahhhh crap!
Upcoming shows:
Portugal/Spain should be a good match. I can't see Italy getting past Germany. But then again I haven't exactly been calling them right thus far. Very disappointed in England today.

Burrow Head
|This article does not cite any references or sources. (November 2007)
Burrow Head is the southernmost tip of the Machars peninsula in south-west Scotland.
It is located approximately two miles south-west of Isle of Whithorn, Wigtownshire and is the second southernmost point of Scotland (after the Mull of Galloway).
St. Ninian's Cave is approximately two miles north-west along the coast. It is an important location for pilgrims who believe that St. Ninian spent some time on retreat there.[citation needed]
Burrow Head's location and relative seclusion meant that during the eighteenth century it became associated with smuggling, from and to the Isle of Man (fifteen miles south) and Ireland.[citation needed]
In more recent years, Burrow Head became famous as a location for the 1973 thriller film The Wicker Man. Until recently the stumps of the prop used as the wicker man in the film remained visible, but these have been gradually eroded by souvenir hunters.
Today much of Burrow Head is occupied by a caravan park.[citation needed]

A veteran of 16 Edinburgh derbies, the Falkirk goalkeeper renewed hostilities with his former city rivals on Saturday and proved a barrier to their repeated attacks.
Point-blank saves to thrice deny Farid El Alagui, and Paul Heffernan, in the first half ensured that Rory Loy's back-heeled goal would be enough to settle the contest.
The former Hearts goalkeeper had conceded at Easter Road on three occasions in 10 visits, and there does seem to be something in the air down Leith way which brings out the best in the 28-year-old.
MacDonald has been around long enough to know what the correct response, straight out of the footballers' cliche handbook, should be to that. "The professional answer I'm supposed to give is probably that it doesn't matter and I treat every game the same," he smiled, before adding: "There is a bit of an extra buzz with a trip to Easter Road. It's been a happy hunting ground, it's a fantastic stadium and a big club. It is exactly the sort of game you look forward to.
"My reception was better than what I thought it would be. Mind you, after the last [derby] with Hearts at Tynecastle - with shoes and chairs and all sorts chucked at me - anything would be better than that."
Despite MacDonald's performance, it was 19-year-old Matthew Kennedy who received the man-of-the-match bubbly, having bamboozled Alan Maybury and delivered a host of crosses for El Alagui and Heffernan.
Their headers, however, were skewed wide as Hibs failed to find a way back into this engaging contest.
"It's great to get my first start and be named man of the match, but you'd always rather have three points," Kennedy said. "Any other day, we would have got them. We had a load of chances - enough for two or three games - but it wasn't to be for our strikers, who are usually such good finishers."
