Leeds City Council expects to have to make spending cuts of around £150 million by 2015 as a result of the cuts in local government funding announced by the government today.
In his comprehensive spending review, the chancellor announced a reduction in funding for local authorities of 7.1 per cent each year for the next four years.
In Leeds, it is anticipated £50 million will have to be found through savings in 2011 alone.
Around 75 per cent of Leeds City Council's funding comes from the government. The council's biggest areas of spend are adult social care and education, including schools.
Leader of Leeds City Council, Councillor Keith Wakefield, said:
"Today's spending review presents us with a significant challenge, but this isn't the end to public services in Leeds, it only demonstrates the importance of showing strong civic responsibility to ensure we protect services for the young, the elderly and vulnerable people.
"It also presents a very serious challenge to the future of housing in our city and that will be one of the biggest issues we will have to tackle.
"Leeds City Council has already made efficiency savings of over £100 million in five years, but it is now clear that, in future, some services will have to be reduced further and others stopped.
"The council will certainly be a smaller organisation in four years time and will have to change the way it works and delivers services."
Around 2,500 to 3,000 council jobs are expected to go following today's review announcement. However these will largely be through natural turnover where posts are left unfilled as they become vacant. About 1900 people leave the authority every year.
The council has offered workers the opportunity to leave under a voluntary early retirement or early severance scheme.
Councillor Wakefield added:
"Our main focus over the next few months will be to look very carefully at all our services and consider ways of, where appropriate, we might be able to work more closely with other organisations in the public, voluntary and private sectors.
"We will also look at ways of maximising our income where appropriate and review how much we spend on capital projects. In future, we will give priority to schemes which will save the council money in the medium to long-term and we will also ensure our purchasing power is used to best effect."
The council is reviewing what buildings it occupies in order to reduce the amount of space it needs and how it can improve the efficiency of 'back office' and support functions.
In response to the government's announcement that the 'ring fencing' around grant money will be removed, Cllr Wakefield said:
"We welcome the government's decision to lift the restrictions on how and where councils can spend the money they receive in grants.
"It makes sense to leave us to decide how resources should be allocated in Leeds.
"It will give us the flexibility to respond to the needs of the people of this city."
And reacting to the news that the NGT trolley bus scheme wasn't included in the chancellor's spending review announcement today, Cllr Wakefield said:
"It is a shame that we did not get the confirmation we were hoping for, but that could come next week when a further announcement is expected.
"The multi-million pound trolley bus investment is vital for the city.
"It will help cut congestion, get more cars off the road and should have a positive impact on the environment.
"It will also help protect, and boost, the city's economy as well as that of the wider Leeds City Region."
In summary, Councillor Wakefield said:
"As ever, the devil is in the detail and I am keen we get clarity on a number of issues as soon as possible.
"I hope that will come when the Government publishes details of the council's 'formula grant' for local authorities in November."

Enjoy a frightfully fun Halloween week

Things are sure to get spooky across Leeds next week as the city hosts a series of events and activities for Halloween.
From Tuesday 26 October to the evening of Halloween itself on Sunday 31 October, scary themed events and activities will be taking place each day across five Leeds City Council-managed venues to give people of all ages a fright.
Abbey House Museum will be the place to be from Tuesday to Friday with family craft and fun activities, sessions for play schemes and larger groups and a spooky murder mystery to solve.
The action switches to the historic Kirkstall Abbey itself on Friday 29 October from 3:30pm-7:30pm, with a variety of performances and activities taking place in the eery surroundings of the abbey church.
Those brave enough to enter a darkened Temple Newsam House and wander the rooms of the stately home by candlelight as well as seeing Home Farm in a whole new light should head there for the popular annual Halloween hauntings on Saturday 30 October from 5:30pm-8pm.
Fancy dress is encouraged but beware the infamous 'Blue Lady' - thought to be Mary Ingram, daughter of former owner of the house Sir Thomas Ingram. Mary died in 1652 aged just 14 following a breakdown after being subjected to a highway robbery and her ghost shrouded in blue has been spotted many times since 'roaming' the house.
The same evening at Leeds City Museum from 7pm-9pm 'The Spooktacular!' music concert will see a host of well-known scary soundtracks and songs from films and television performed by the Yorkshire Wind Orchestra.
On Halloween itself on Sunday 31 October, Kirkstall Abbey Visitor Centre is running free craft sessions from 10-12 and 2-4pm while Leeds Industrial Museum at Armley Mills will be hosting a special family scary fun day taking place from 12noon-4pm. The day will feature craft activities such as making witches hats and broomsticks, as well as ghost stories, scary films being shown and following ghostly trails.
Leeds City Council executive member for leisure Councillor Adam Ogilvie said:
"Halloween is great annual event especially for children and these events are perfect for families and people of all ages to get into the spirit of things and have some fun."
All of the events require advance booking (except Leeds Industrial Museum at Armley Mills and Kirkstall Abbey Visitor Centre) and/or have admission charges which will apply (except Kirkstall Abbey Visitor Centre). For further information and to book places call each site as follows:
Abbey House Museum and Kirkstall Abbey – 0113 230 5492
Temple Newsam House – 0113 264 7321

Entries can be emailed to firstname.lastname@example.com, with the picture attached as a jpeg, and giving the contact details including full name and address of the person entering the competition. Postal entries will also be accepted and should be sent to The Carriageworks, The Electric Press, Millennium Square, Leeds, LS2 3AD. The closing date for the competition is Monday 8th November.
All the names will be put into the draw for the golden ticket, which will take place at The Carriageworks' Big Birthday Bash, to be held at the venue on Thursday 11 November from 5.30pm.
General manager of The Carriageworks Martin McInulty said:

OAKLAND -- Despite playing for the fourth time in five nights, the Denver Nuggets stored up enough energy to score the final 11 points of the second overtime and stun the foul-shooting-plagued Golden State Warriors 107-101 Saturday night at Oracle Arena. Andre Iguodala and Dalino Gallinari buried 3-pointers on successive possessions as the Nuggets, down 101-96 with just over two minutes to play in the second extra session, rallied improbably to their fourth consecutive win after opening the season with three straight losses. Iguodala and Gallinari each dropped in a pair of subsequent free throws to ice a victory that appeared destined for the Golden State column at stages late in regulation and in both overtimes. Warriors forward Carl Landry missed two free throws with his team up 101-97 and 1:22 to go in the second OT. The Nuggets immediately countered with Iguodala's 3-pointer to make it a one-point game and set up the one-sided finish. After a scoreless first half, Gallin...

Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)

Published in Christian Saints & Heroes
KNOXVILLE, TN (Catholic Online) - It may seem unnecessary and confusing, but each one of her names sheds more light on her true identity and helps us to know her and better appreciate her. In order to illuminate this point, perhaps we can use a diamond as a comparison. Imagine holding a diamond and rotating it between your fingers so you can examine its overall shape, its facets and its brilliant display of light. The facets are the angular cuts on the surface of a diamond, and they are responsible for the reflection of light within it. The brilliance of a diamond is directly related to the number and angle of these facets. Being full of grace, we can say that Mary radiates brilliance like a diamond. And while only a rough comparison, we can also compare her names to the facets of a diamond. Of course, her many names do not cause her brilliance, but they do help us see her brilliance. Perhaps we can experience this if we take a brief look at some of her names. Mary is the Woman mentioned in the beginning of the Bible whose seed will be in mortal combat with the serpent (Gn 3:15). And she is the Woman mentioned at the end of the Bible who is with child, clothed with the sun, the moon under her feet, and a crown of twelve stars on her head (Rev12:1), the Ark of the Covenant (Rev 11:19). She is also the Daughter of Zion, the Jewish maiden who remained faithful to the Old Testament Covenant and helps usher in the new and eternal Covenant. The most fundamental and best known name for Mary is Mother of God, that is, Mother of Jesus, the God-man, the King and Redeemer of the world. This title shows us that she holds a singular relationship to God which is unique among all other creatures. To understand this relationship, one of the things we need to recall is that her motherhood is of a spiritual nature as well as a physical nature. Her other names and titles flow from these fundamental facts. For instance, Mary's relationship to Jesus and his role as king, introduces us to her title of Queen Mother. According to a tradition of the Davidic kings, their mothers became queens of the Kingdom. As such, they had access to the king and were able to intercede for the people of Israel. Thus, Mary is our Advocate. It was Mary who interceded for the couple at the Wedding of Cana (Jn 2:1-10), prompting Jesus to perform his first known miracle and begin his public ministry. Due to Jesus' role as redeemer and Mary's unity with his work, she has received the name of Co-redemptrix. By God's grace, she gave us our Redeemer in the flesh at the Annunciation by freely giving her "yes" (Lk 1:38). At the Presentation, Simeon prophesied that Mary would suffer in union with her son, that a sword would pierce her heart (Lk 2:25). And at Calvary, Mary offered her Son to the Heavenly Father in perfect obedience to His will as a sacrifice for the sins of the world. Since Jesus is the source and author of all grace and Mary, freely cooperating with God's plan, gave Jesus to the world and uniquely participated in the acquisition of the graces he won for us, she also participates in the distribution of these graces in a wholly unique way. This means that all of the graces we receive come through Mary. For these reasons, she is also called the Mediatrix of All Graces. Thus, in a very real sense, Mary is truly "full of grace" (Lk 1:28) and far more brilliant than any other created being. Yet, Mary is not distant. She is also our Mother. As the fullness of grace made it possible for Mary to bring the One who is life itself into the world, the fullness of grace also makes it possible for Mary to help bring us to eternal life. In other words, as the Mother of God, Mary gave birth to both the physical body of Jesus and his Mystical Body; as our spiritual mother and through her role as Mediatrix of All Graces, she is able to give birth, nourish and form us in the Mystical Body of Christ, which is the Church, such that we too radiate Christ's light. Mary has a multitude of names, and each one sheds more light on her identity. Although we have not looked at many examples, the ones we have looked at are bursting with light and, like the facets of a diamond, reflect her brilliance; so that we can see who she truly is and better appreciate her. ------ Michael Terheyden was born into a Catholic family, but that is not why he is a Catholic. He is a Catholic because he believes that truth is real, that it is beautiful and good, and that the fullness of truth is in the Catholic Church. However, he knows that God's grace operating throughout his life is the main reason he is a Catholic. He is greatly blessed to share his faith and his life with his beautiful wife, Dorothy. They have four grown children and three grandchildren.

Through the use of hidden cameras, men who behave in homosexual fashion, videotaped sessions with Christian counselors at a clinic. On tape the counselors attempted to give them advice on how to re-channel their sexual behaviors. The undercover footage was edited and reported on in such a way to attempt to make it appear as though the counselors were brainwashing clients. The tiny little problem here however was that these men who engage in homosexual behavior, went to the clinic asking the clinic to help them find ways not to engage in the behavior any more.
The activists released selective b-roll of the videos, Brian Ross "investigated" the matter, and Diane Sawyer made assertions just short of saying that Michele Bachmann wanted homosexual men to kill themselves.
Shoddy journalism, pathetic advocacy, brought about by the worst "sting" operation ever conceived.
Lastly, mostly due to the TOMS shoes controversy, a number of other angry and radical activists, have attempted to blacklist other retailers like Delta Airlines, PetSmart, Microsoft, and Apple from participation in a give-back program to ministries like Focus On The Family (which bolsters healthy families), Promise Keepers (which like President Obama calls for men to exert a stronger presence in the life of their children), Angel Food Ministries (which feeds the hungry) and others.
The activists wished to injure the retailers because they presently participate in giving back to legitimate 501c3 organizations when constituents of those organizations shop online and purchase using a content application or shopping mall that the ministry may provide. The technology is provided by a group, formerly known as Christian Values Network, and is now known as the Charity Give Back Group.
By denying the give-back opportunities that the retailers offer, the activists are hurting the formation of healthy families, fighting for increased fatherlessness in the home, and literally hoping the poorest of the poor in America will go hungry.
Why? Because people who have a disagreement with their idealogical positions dare to express it?
The radical sexual activists in America today are the least tolerant people on the planet. Because while homosexuals are welcome in every church in America to come and sit, sing, pray, and learn. Most Christians--evangelical and catholic--are being told, "You're not even allowed to do good... Even for those in need."
These activists are the most intolerant people in America, and the outcomes they desire lack the virtue to improve the world.
It would be helpful if retailers of all stripes, let these debates happen in the idealogical spaces of our society, and not take the fight to the market square where these tiny numbers of radicals are attempting to squelch the commerce and relationships of every Catholic and Evangelical Christian in America.
For the retailers, that's a lopsided and losing proposition.
But by at least remaining neutral at they would not be perpetrating the ill will that the radical activists seek to inflict.
And grateful families, fathers, and formerly hungry kids, I'm sure, would express their thanks!

Commodity trading and risk management is a subject that is necessarily complicated, and is becoming more so. The Energy Risk Glossary seeks to disentangle and clarify the jargon by providing definitions of commonly used energy and commodity market terms.
These include definitions related to a variety of underlying energy products, as well as technical terms about the many instruments and benchmarks used by energy market participants.
Many of the most recent terms to have been added to our glossary stem from the actions of regulators since the 2008 global financial crisis. The onset of rules, such as the US Dodd-Frank Act and European Market Infrastructure Regulation, has markedly increased the cost and complexity associated with commodity trading. Perhaps they have also increased the need for a handy reference guide such as this.
The glossary is extensively cross-referenced, making for easy and thorough searches. We hope you find the latest edition of the Energy Risk Glossary to be a useful resource.

Released: August 2002
Probably one of Xenomania's most perfect tracks, 'Round Round' is mean, it's taut, it's sexy and it's awesome. Preceding 'Sound Of The Underground' by several months, it never falls into the slightly nudge-nudge Carry On 'knowing' territory that Girls Aloud often do – Sugababes were by far the cooler proposition. The chugging, locomotive introduction and whip-smart rhythms are totally dancefloor irresistible and the classic Destiny's Child you-ain't-all-that lyrics ("I don't need no man, got my kicks for free") perfectly nonchalant, in the days when they could still draw on Mutya's sultry drawl.

Local Govts. sue over growth-management bill
Mitch E. Perry
WMNF Drive-Time News Thursday | Listen to this entire show:
A group of local governments is suing Charlie Crist and the state legislature over Senate Bill 360, the controversial growth management bill signed by the Governor last month.
The new law exempts builders from having to widen roads to accommodate traffic from new construction and eliminates the review process for some large developments. Environmentalists have called the bill a gift to developers.
But the lawsuit doesnât touch on the merits of the legislation. Instead, it focuses on its constitutionality.
Jamie Cole is the attorney leading the suit on behalf of the Broward County city of Weston, and 7 other local governments.
He said the bill breaks the âsingle subject ruleâ by adding language about security cameras at private businesses and affordable housing to its growth management provisions. Secondly, Cole says the bill violates the âunfunded mandateâ provision.
Denise Layne is with the group Citizens For Responsible Growth. She lobbied against the bill during the session, and said there were always concerns about the law being an unfunded mandate.
Attorney Jamie Cole said he, as well as the City Manager of Weston, worked on getting other local governments to join in on the lawsuit.
Locally, members of the Hillsborough County Commission did sign a letter to Governor Crist, urging him to veto the bill. Commissioner Mark Sharpe led the effort to write that letter to the Governor. He said he is very interested in joining in on the lawsuit.
Some local environmentalists were upset that Hillsborough Countyâs lobbyists didnât fight hard enough against Senate Bill 360.
Commissioner Mark Sharpe said part of the problem is institutional â the leadership in Tallahassee at times isnât in synch with local governments on a major issue like growth management.
Environmental activist and lobbyist Dee Dee Layne said she sympathizes with the Hillsborough County Lobbyists. She says they can only take directions from the leaders in the County Government, and wants to know who was directing them to take a âhands off approachâ to SB 360 until the end.
Layne says that many organizations were for SB 360, before they were against it. Attorney Jamie Cole has asked for an expedited hearing. If granted, he says a ruling could come down within a few months time.comments powered by Disqus

It's not ******* stupid, I wish more people were like that where I live. These lazy ************* live in their parents' houses even after they're married. I don't know if I'm more upset about the culture being that way or the fact that my parents don't own a house so I can't do the same thing and have to actually try to succeed. Come to think about it, I'm fine the way I am, taking care of myself.

No, but generally if you aren't some neck beard faggot you will move out after 18 years, or get a job.

South Texas Report: 05.22.08
College Basketball
Isles sign three to letters of intent
Texas A&M-Corpus Christi men's basketball coach Perry Clark announced the signing of three players to national letters of intent today. The new additions to the Islander team will be 6-1 guard Shamar Coombs of Tallahassee Community College, 6-1 guard LaMarr Drake of Mott Community College and 6-5 forward Kevin Palmer from Cecil Community College.
Coombs, a 6-1 combo guard from Toronto, Ontario averaged 15.2 points, 4.7 rebounds and 2.6 three-pointers per game at Tallahassee Junior College last year, leading his team to a 17-10 record. He was named to the all-Panhandle Conference second team as a freshman and sophomore after hitting a team-high 69 three-pointers as well as hitting 50.3 percent from the field.
In high school, Coombs averaged 17 points, six rebounds, eight assists and two steals a game at Toronto Academy Prep where he led his team to the 2006 Guy Vetrie Invitational Basketball Tournament Championship and was named the tournament's most valuable player. In 2005, he represented Toronto in the annual basketball all-star game against Michigan-based players and participated in the 2003-04 Toronto Raptors' Development Academy.
Drake comes to Corpus Christi from Mott Community College where the Bears won back-to-back NJCAA National Championships. In his two years at Mott, he helped lead the team to a 70-5 record, averaging 9.2 points, 3.1 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game as a sophomore. He hit 49.5 percent from the field, including 45.2 percent from three-point range. In the national semi-final game Drake poured in 21 points to go along with five rebounds, seven assists and three steals.
"LaMarr is a true point guard," Clark said. "He will allow us to move Tim Green and Kevin Perkins away from the ball where they can be more effective."
He prepped at Carver Military Academy in Chicago, Ill. where he scored 21 points, six rebounds, five assists and two steals as a senior. He was named to the 2006 All-City second team as well as the 2006 all-conference and All-State honorable mention squad.
Palmer, a junior from Cecil Community College helped lead the Seahawks to a combined 64-4 record his two seasons there. He was named first-team Maryland JUCO as well as first-team All-Region as a sophomore. He was named the Maryland Junior College All-Tournament Most Valuable Player this past season and was a 2007-08 NJCAA Pre-Season First Team All-America selection.
During his time at Cecil C.C., the Seahawks were back-to-back Maryland JUCO regular season and state tournament champions and were ranked in the top-10 nationally both seasons.
"I am extremely excited about this recruiting class," Clark said. "I think it gives us experience and maturity to go along with our younger guys. Both Coombs and Palmer are experienced ball handlers and scorers that I feel will make our perimeter game comparable to anyone in the league."
IWA's Olivarez signs with UIW
Incarnate Word Academy's Ashley Olivarez signed a soccer scholarship with University of the Incarnate Word in San Antonio.
Olivarez was a second-team TAPPS all-state selection for the Angels two seasons ago before missing her senior season with an injury.

Stakes Increase In Congressional Battle Over IraqFebruary 23, 2007 - by Donny Shaw
Democratic Senators Joe Biden (DE) and Carl Levin (MI) will be returning from recess on Tuesday the 27th, ready to place their new Iraq resolution on the table. Their new plan is different from the non-binding resolutions that have been repeatedly blocked from debate in the Senate — if approved, it would actually become law. The plan calls for Congress' 2002 authorization of the war in Iraq to be replaced with an obligation to begin deploying the majority of U.S. troops out of Iraq by March, 2008.
The big question is when this plan is going to be presented. There are a couple of options: it could be presented as an amendment to the bill to implement the 9/11 Commission's recommendations, the first bill the Senate will consider after their recess, or it could be held and presented later, as an amendment to the supplemental war funding bill that the President has submitted to Congress. The decision likely depends upon whether or not Republican senators present an amendment to the above-mentioned 9/11 Commission bill, sponsored by Judd Gregg (R-NH), which states that Congress will not withhold funds from the Iraq war. Democrats want to keep the option of cutting funds for the war open for use in the future. The political and legal ramifications of how this plays out are much larger now that the issue at hand is a legally binding resolution.
The Levin-Biden plan, and the entirety of any bill that contains it as an amendment, will be vetoed by the President. There is no doubt about that. The actual question is which bill, the 9/11 Commission recommendations or the war supplemental, is going to be vetoed along with it.
The bill to implement the 9/11 Commission's recommendations has general bipartisan support, and both parties have a lot invested in it. Neither would want it vetoed, but the Democrats are not going to allow the Gregg amendment to go through on it either. Joe Biden is likely to be especially concerned with passing the 9/11 bill. It could be devastating for his 2008 presidential campaign to be one of the authors of an amendment that caused such an important bill to be vetoed. This 9/11 bill is, after all, the senate version of the house bill that was symbolically assigned the number H.R.1, and the first considered in the 100 Hour Plan. That is how important this bill is to the Democratic platform.
But arguably of equal importance to Democrats is putting Republicans on record against limiting or ending the war in Iraq. This could be used against senate Republicans up for re-election in 2008, when Democrats hope to pick up some more seats in the senate.

Low GPU memory bandwidth?
I recently bought XFX GeForce GT 240 512MB DDR5 and bench-marked it using programs I have: SiSoftware Sandra and m3fe.com fillratetest 1.13.
Both of these tools reported that internal memory bandwidth of my GPU is around 26 GB/s which is about half it should be, 54,4 GB/s. Bandwidth efficiency is below 50%.
Now, I know these larger values are probably theoretical but such results place this GPU significantly below 9600GT DDR3 performance. And this is not the case with all other benchmarks I tried, and it's a bit strange to me that DDR 3 GPU (2 x 950 MHz) can outperform DDR 5 GPU (2 x 1700 MHZ) by 40%, according to Sandra.
Motherboard is Asus P5K Premium with ICH9R and PCI-E 1.1 bus and CPU is Core 2 E8200. Bios is Auto (not overclocked). GPU seems to be running 1700 MHz memory clock during benchmarks (GPU-Z). nvidia 197.45 drivers.
Does anyone know if 26 GB/s (less than 50% efficiency) is indeed low result for this GPU? Do I need to change something in Bios or does it depends on my motherboards PCI-E bus not being v2.0?
Re: Low GPU memory bandwidth?
Don't get too hung up on theoretical numbers, the gt240 is on par with a 9600gt in game benchmarks.
Re: Low GPU memory bandwidth?
Am trying not to pay too much attention to this.
I figured maybe there is something configured in my system that prevents the GPU to operate at optimum performance.

Padres bullpen polishes Garland's gem
After Keppinger walked to lead off the inning, Lance Berkman hit a rocket to the left of Hairston. The ball ricocheted off Hairston's glove into the air. As it came down, Hairston batted the ball with his glove to David Eckstein at second for the force of Keppinger. Carlos Lee then bounced to Headley, who turned it into a double play.
"It's just something you do," Hairston said. "That ball seemed like it hung in the air for 10 seconds."
"That ball was smashed," Garland said of the Berkman shot. "I just want the infielder to knock it down when it's hit that hard. He turned a smoked ball into an out."
The Astros did score against Adams in the eighth after he walked Pedro Feliz to end a string of 18 straight hitters retired. The run ended a streak of 16 straight scoreless innings pitched by the Padres, who were seeking their first back-to-back shutouts since 1992.
Bell picked up his eighth save.

Bread Idli
|Bread slice
|2 Tablespoon (Skimmed Milk)
|1 , grated
|2 Medium
|Green chilies
|Coriander leaves
|1 Pinch
|To Taste
|Mustard seeds
|1 Tablespoon
1. Boil the potatoes and mash them.
2. Cut the bread into big rounds.
3. Crackle mustard seeds, then green chilies.
4. Then put the mashed potatoes.
5. Now put haldi and Salt to taste.
6. Put coriander and your aloo masala is ready.
7. Apply this masala on one side of the round and cut bread.
8. In a separate vessel, take curd and add grated carrots to it.
9. Now season this mixture again similarly with mustard seeds and green chillies.
10. After seasoning, take a nonstick pan and put the bread in the non stick pan.
11. The bread which has aloo masala should go down i.e. on the tava side.
12. On the top, the curd mixture should be spread.
13. Now for steaming the idli, you can cover it with a steel jaali which we normally use for sieving rice.
14. As aloo masala turns little red, your idli is ready.
15. While serving, your aloo side of the bread should go down in the plate.

That clears things up nicely. I can only assume that I can't use the lens as a 305 on this camera.
Thanks for that.
Thanks Softie - I was busy eating dinner.
Just to clarify one little thing: The nodal point ends up a long way behind the front standard, which is why you need the extra extension to bring the nodal point to 305mm.
My longest camera has 85cm of bellows, just enough to focus a converted 360/620 mm Symmar at a little bit closer than infinity.
The 180/315mm Symmar needs 380mm extenstion to focus at infinity.
-- Ole Tjugen, Luddite Elitist
Thank you to all who responded for their sage advice. I intend to empoly a bit of patience and get to know these lenses much better before splashing out, possibly needslessly, on replacement lenses.

Originally written on This Given Sunday | Last updated 7/15/13
The Patriots have been getting a lot of negative press of late, and it's drawing attention to their strategy of buying low and selling high. The Patriots are known for bringing in questionable players, turning them into highly productive parts of their team and trading them away for far higher picks than they originally used to draft the player. When it works, it's extremely lucrative, and gives the team ammunition to stay at the top of the league. When it fails, it gets ugly quick. That's the nature of a high risk, high reward game. Part of the problem, at least according to SI's Peter King, is that Belichick hasn't had anyone to challenge him on personnel decisions since Scott Pioli left back in 2009. "But," a source with knowledge of the Patriots' front office told King, "there's no one there with Scott's balls anymore. Bill needs someone to challenge him, and I don't think he has that now." As far as the Patriots' record goes, Pioli's absence hasn't impacted the Patriots in a negative way. The Patriots have been consistently better since he left, with the exception of New England's 16-0 campaign in 2007. The Patriots are, right now, in the worst position they've been in recent memory. Their offense is a mishmash of no-name talent surrounding Tom Brady, and that defense is nothing to write home about. At this point, it looks like Bill Belichick has put the Patriots in a tough position. Maybe Peter King's source is right. Someone in New England needs to grow a set and stand up to Belichick.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — Once considered among the most vulnerable incumbents in Congress, Missouri Sen. Claire McCaskill rebounded Tuesday to win re-election over Republican Todd Akin, whose campaign never recovered from his much-criticized remark about "legitimate rape."
McCaskill defeats Akin; Dems keep Mo. Senate seat
McCaskill, who acknowledged she was an underdog as the 2012 campaign began, capitalized on Akin's comments about pregnancy and rape to portray him as a right-wing extremist.
Her victory preserved an important Senate seat for Democrats — an outcome that had once seemed unlikely because of McCaskill's close ties to President Barack Obama, who narrowly lost Missouri in 2008 and was trailing Republican challenger Mitt Romney there Tuesday. McCaskill is the first Democratic senator to win re-election in Missouri since Thomas Eagleton in 1980.
"With a stubborn determination, tenacity and a refusal to give up, we showed the country what Missouri is made of," McCaskill told cheering supporters at her election night party in St. Louis.
Akin, a six-term congressman from suburban St. Louis, said he called McCaskill to congratulate her.
"Things don't always turn out the way you think they're going to," Akin told his supporters. "But I also think that in the circumstances we've all been through, that it's particularly appropriate to thank God, who makes no mistakes and who is much wiser than we are. So I say, 'To God alone be the honor and the glory, regardless of how he decides to organize history.'"
Akin had been favored over McCaskill after prevailing in an Aug. 7 Republican primary. But everything changed when he was asked in an Aug. 19 interview whether abortion should be legal for women who have been raped.
He responded: "From what I understand from doctors, that's really rare. If it's a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down."
Although Akin apologized, his comments went viral on the Internet. He was widely denounced and ridiculed, and Romney joined other top national Republicans in urging Akin to quit the race.
Instead, he forged ahead despite losing millions of dollars of planned advertising support from the National Republican Senatorial Committee and the deep-pocketed Crossroads group affiliated with GOP strategist Karl Rove. Akin solicited small online donations and began portraying his campaign as an anti-establishment crusade.
Some of the party's top leaders remained bitter that Akin did not abandon the race, which would have let Missouri Republicans pick a replacement.

Tori Spelling Debuts Nursery
By Stacie Anthony
After settling in at home with baby Finn, who was born Aug. 30, proud parents Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott debut his colorful nursery in their posh Los Angeles home. Suffering from placenta previa during her fourth pregnancy, Tori enlisted the help of longtime pals Bill Horn and Scout Masterson, aka "The Guncles," who run Marque Communications, to help design the newborn's ultra-chic nursery. Click through to see pics of baby Finn's new room …
On her vision for the nursery:
"In the early stages of my pregnancy I was shopping at a flea market and found an adorable vintage giraffe figurine. That was when I came up with the vision of Finn's nursery. I wanted to do a blend of vintage touches and modern regency. Dean and I have always known since Stella was born that we would have another baby boy one day and we would name him Finn. Although we didn't find out the sex of the baby, I committed wholeheartedly to a baby-boy giraffe nursery for Finn. That very first vintage giraffe figurine I found also stayed on my bedside table in my hospital room for the 2 1/2 months I was there. It gave me hope."

At first glance it would seem that it is highly unlikely that Aaron Rodgers will reach Drew Brees' passing numbers this year – Brees has lead the league in yards and touchdowns in the past two seasons, while posting historic numbers. With that in mind, it's important to note that historic numbers can't realistically be attained forever – whether Brees manages to toss 40 TD again this year will remain a mystery until some point deep in the season, if not its final week. Becoming the first Quarterback to toss for 40 in back-to-back seasons was already historic, and it's certainly no lock to happen for a third straight year. Although it's highly unlikely that Rodgers surpasses Brees' numbers, it's entirely likely that there is a narrowing of the gap between the two when it comes to points through the air...

Barlow PlanetariumRead MoreThe night sky is a vast ocean of celestial objects such as the moon, the bright lights of our closest stars, and the warm glow of neighboring galaxies. Located at the University of Wisconsin Fox Valley, Barlow Planetarium helps uncover the vastness of the universe through a 3-D-capable Digistar projector, which?combined with 10,000 watts of digital sound and a 48-foot projection screen?transports guests into the deepest trenches of space. The facility's star shows include family programs that make astronomy easy to understand as well as feature shows that tickle the minds of more hardened astronomy buffs. Along with celestial exploration, the planetarium transforms with dancing lights and rich sounds during laser shows. These programs add visual touches to music from the likes of The Beatles or Isaac Newton's little-known punk band. The planetarium also hosts academic programs for grade-school children. These include the Wisconsin Space Academy, in which students build and launch rockets, and the Wisconsin Astronomy Academy, which lets pupils peer through telescopes and discover vending machines floating through space.1478 Midway RoadMenasha, WI US
CurvesRead MoreWith machines set up in rows to encourage competition, many ordinary gyms cater to men's bodies and psychology, right down to the urinals that were "accidentally" installed in the women's locker room. At Curves, fitness frontierswomen move around a circuit of hydraulic-resistance machines that have been designed to work with women's bodies and promote weight loss, protect against osteoporosis, and deal with arthritis.896 9th StMenasha, WI US
Anytime FitnessRead MoreNovice calorie burners and ripped Michelangelo models alike can take advantage of Anytime Fitness?s one-month membership ($49), which equips bodies with enough treadmills, cycles, elliptical machines, and weights to make them fit enough to run a marathon inside of a swimming pool filled with mud. A personal training orientation familiarizes sheepish biceps with their new, confidence-boosting dumbbell friends. Highlight the results of this fat-frying and muscle-mass-magnifying program with one month of unlimited tanning ($20 value) to paint new, ripply physiques a brilliant shade of bronze. As an added bonus, this Groupon waives the $99 enrollment fee.310 East Ann StreetKaukauna, WI US
Ellipse Fitness AppletonRead MoreAt Ellipse Fitness, the only pieces of machinery that you operate are the levers, pulleys, and ball-and-socket mechanisms of your own skeleton. The gyms abstain from treadmills and bikes in favor of a full class schedule and a cooperative group atmosphere. With 35 or more lessons scheduled per week, certified instructors guide students of all experience levels through an ever-changing line-up of strength and cardio drills. These routines incorporate tools such as resistance bands, TRX suspension cords, kettle bells, battling ropes, and kickboxing equipment, though the primary instrument is always the human physique. In addition to their standard classes, the staff also hosts boot-camp sessions and seminars on mastering your metabolism. Their weight-loss programs encompass weekly check-ins, during which clients receive nutritional resources and gauge their progress by taking measurements instead of stockpiling all the food they didn't eat in a jar. Regardless of its ultimate goal, each Ellipse Fitness regimen involves personal attention and a holistic, full-body approach to wellness.1526 S Commercial StNeenah, WI US
Snap FitnessRead MoreSnap Fitness, bustling with cardio and strength-training gear, throws open the doors to its facilities 24/7. Before exercisers put sneakers to treadmills or lift their first weights, staff meet with them to talk about their fitness goals before suggesting personalized fitness plans based on clients' strength, cardio condition, and bionic-limb manufacturers. The gym keeps members motivated with regular check-in calls and demystifies healthful eating with custom online meal plans designed by nutritionists. Staff also forestall exercise-routine boredom by working individually with clients on a routine basis.318 Wolf River PlzNew London, WI US
Premier FitnessRead MorePremier Fitness of Appleton stocks its 6,000-square-foot muscle manufactory with modern cardio- and strength-building machines, surrounded by staff who aim to melt away fitness frustrations. The cheery citrus-hued facility offers buffening opportunities around the clock 365 days a year. A 15-inch TV perches atop each treadmill, cross-trainer, and other stamina-extending equipment. Melon farmers and globe salesman can relieve workday stresses by taking out aggression on a collection of medicine balls, and all can achieve a more sinewy shape with free and cable-assist weights and dumbbells from 2.5?95 pounds. Hop into Premier Fitness's tanning capsule at any time to turn biceps and elbowceps into a new tone. Private changing rooms and showers provide comfortable spaces for post-workout body-debriefing, while security cameras protect patrons at all hours elsewhere.2408 W Nordale DrAppleton, WI US

There is no use for anyone to turn everything on "very high" at this point unless they have the entire Nvidia Headquarters G80 stock all SLI'd together. The game crawls with shaders at Very High as I've been trying to tell guys for the past two days now. That setting is the skeleton key that will unlock decent performance in DX10.
On a side note: It's interesting that there actually is a little more detail in the mountains on 64-bit. I wonder what else, if anything, they added more detail to on the 64-bit path.
