PocketWizard Top Ten FAQ
Our TOP TEN most asked simple questions.
It's understandable you might get into a situation while working with the MiniTT1® and FlexTT5® and today's complex camera systems where you're not sure why something isn't working as you would expect it. Most of the time, there is a simple solution. We asked our tech support crew to give us the "Top Ten" questions consumers asked to keep their system working properly. Here they are
1. Q: Nothing is working! What should I do?
A: Try these steps:
- Check the batteries: weak batteries can cause strange behavior.
- Make sure all radios (and cameras and speedlights) are updated to the latest firmware. Try our beta firmware as it often has new fixes ready to be tried.
- Factory Reset the radios.
- Take your first shot at 1/125th so the system can properly calibrate timing.
- Wait about 3 seconds after turning on your radio before taking your first picture.
- Take your time! Whenever possible, compose the image with the shutter release half-pressed before taking the picture.
- Save your camera's custom functions, reset the camera, then start adding them back in one at a time.
2. Q: In what order should I turn things on?
A: Top down: Flash, then radio, then camera. Wait 2-3 seconds between each step. Older Quick Guides may have this slightly different, but top down works for all current radios and firmware.
3. Q: My Nikon camera won't let me choose a shutter speed faster than x-sync. How can I shoot at faster shutter speeds?
A: Nikon cameras require that FP-sync is enabled to shoot faster than x-sync if they detect a TTL-capable device in their hot shoe. Enabling FP-sync is done in the Custom Settings menu. Set "e1 flash sync speed" to 1/250s (Auto FP).
4. Q: The ISO on my remote Nikon Speedlight is stuck at 200. What's wrong?
A: It isn't required for TTL operation on the remote flash and has no effect on exposure so the radios do not transmit camera setting information like ISO to remote flashes.
5. Q: I set my speedlight to MASTER and stuck it on a remote FlexTT5. Why won't it control other flashes when I have a MiniTT1 or FlexTT5 on my camera?
A: The ControlTL® system, just like Nikon and Canon native systems, expects the MASTER speedlight to be only at the camera position so "Remote MASTER" operation is not supported. You need a receiving FlexTT5 for each remote speedlight.
6. Q: My remote speedlights don't change their zoom when I zoom the lens on my camera. What's wrong?
A: Zoom tracking is a feature for on-camera flash and would cause some lighting issues if done on remotes. Nikon and Canon native systems do not have zoom tracking for remote or slave flashes either.
7. Q: How can I trigger a FlexTT5 from a PocketWizard module-equipped Sekonic meter?
A: This PW TV episode explains it all: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zOOq3sX6Ki4
7b. Q: Will you ever have ControlTL in a Sekonic meter?
A: A module with the ControlTL channels is being developed. We do not have a release date for it at this time.
8. Q: What cable do I need?
A: You can use the Cable Finder at PocketWizard.com to find the right cable for lots of different cameras and flashes.
9. Q: Can I combine radio and optical so I don't have to buy as many FlexTT5s? Can I connect more than one speedlight to a single FlexTT5?
A: Currently you need to have one FlexTT5 for each speedlight you want to control via radio.
10. Q: Is "xxxxxxx" brand/model flash compatible with your radios?
A: Some third party flashes are compatible with our radios – you can read more about our radios compatibility on their respective product pages (FlexTT5 for Canon, FlexTT5 for Nikon). Also, almost any flash can be used in Basic Trigger Mode for simple triggering operation.

|Hardee named All-State
|Written by Mike Kelly
|Thursday, 22 July 2010 12:08
Cal Hardee had a senior year worth remembering.Hardee, who backboned a youthful Watauga High baseball team to a Northwestern 3A/4A Conference regular-season championship, has been named to the North Carolina Baseball Coaches Association Class 4A All-State team.
He's the second WHS player to be named All-State. Adam Church, who will attend and play baseball at Wilkes Community College this fall, was named to the all-state team last season.
Hardee, who will continue his playing career at Appalachian State University this coming fall, batted an impressive .402 during his senior year with the Pioneers. He had 35 hits, six doubles, two home runs and drove in 22 runs. He was just as impressive on the mound.
He led the Pioneers with 63-innings pitched and he struck out a team-leading 74 men. Hardee also won ten games for the Pioneers the last two years, backboning them to back-to-back conference championships.
Hardee was also played in two all-star games this season---the East-West Senior All-Star game in Charlotte and the North Carolina-South Carolina All-Star Showcase in Myrtle Beach, SC.
"I was probably the hardest on him," said WHS coach and his father Pete Hardee. "But he handled it very well and he was a tremendous leader for us. I'm very proud of him."
Hardee is joined on the Class 4A squad by Lukas LaSalle of Alexander Central, who beat out Hardee for NW3A/4A Player of the Year. honors last spring, and Phillip Treadway of A.C. Reynolds, who set a school-record with 15 home runs, breaking the old mark of 12 set by current Rockets coach Bryan Craig in 1988.
Tyler Barnette of Hickory, who was selected by the Boston Red Sox in the Major League draft in early June, was named to the Class 3A squad; Ryan Harrold and Luke Gragg of Wilkes Central were named to the Class 2A team; Logan Hallock, Scott Gambill and Jacob Shepard (named the Most Outstanding Player in the Class 1A state championship game), and Micah Bryan of East Wilkes were named to the Class 1A team.
And Hardee will follow in his dad's footsteps when he enrolls at ASU this fall. His dad, Pete, had an impressive career with the Mountaineers, and he is also a member of Appalachian State's Hall of Fame.
"It won't be easy," Hardee said. "He was a great player, and he's a great coach. "But I just have to be myself. I can't base myself on what he did at ASU. I just have to go out there, work hard and prove myself at that level."

By Richard L. BehlingPayson
After reading the recent letter to the editor by Jim Darter (Reasons for GRAMA, HB 477, Sun Advocate, April 5, 2011) ) and several others written by publisher Richard Shaw, it seems that there are still individuals that still do not get it. Jim's letter included a response by Representative Patrick Painter and also included many valid reasons that the GRAMA law should be revisited.
I think we would all agree that we are due a certain amount of privacy. That privacy should not be breached for any reason other than when we have been part of or have committed a crime. Professional, ecclesiastical, and personal privacy should remain private, and here again, I believe we would all agree there.
There is a disconnection between our elected officials and those that they govern. Richard Shaw has valiantly tried to point this out and to have Representative Painter blame the problem on the press is wrong. As a public official you give up a certain amount of privacy. People expect to have their government in the open. After all, it's our government not the politician's. If you want to rewrite the law do it in the open. This is something that Representative Watkins understood. This is something that Richard Shaw understood. Sadly, there were many that did not understand and the bill was pulled when the people of this state caught their government's hand in the cookie jar.
I would personally like to thank Richard Shaw and Representative Watkins for standing up for me, you and the rest of this great state. The learning curve has been great as I have been able to watch from the outside looking in this time. Had I won the spot on the ticket in place of Representative Painter in the last election, I would hope that I would have been the other Republican to have stood up and said no.

Video: 16-Year-Old to be Charged with Murder of Isabella Tennant
NIAGARA FALLS, NY - Niagara Falls Police have charged a 16-year-old boy in connection with the murder of five-year-old Isabella Tennant. An 18-year-old also faces charges, accused of helping dispose of the little girl's body.
WEB EXTRA: Click on the video links to the left to watch the entire press conference with police from Monday afternoon.
WEB EXTRA: Photos of Isabella with family
Below is text from a press release issued by the Niagara Falls Police Department Monday night:
Today (8/27/2012) at about 6:20 a.m. a call of a missing 5 year old girl came into Niagara Falls Police Dept. The 5 year old, Isabella Tennant was staying overnight at 450 Sixth Street- the home of her great-grandmother. She was discovered missing just after 6:00 a.m. when her mother arrived to pick-her-up. The great grandmother, Sharon Lascelle, said she went to bed just after 11:00 p.m. and Isabella was playing with a 16 year old neighbor, John Freeman. A search was immediately conducted with assistance of numerous agencies, including a bloodhound from the Niagara Co. Sheriffs Office, however she was not located.
Just after 9 a.m. Tyler Best came to Police Headquarters and told detectives that he had information concerning this investigation. Based on the information that was given to detectives by Best Niagara Falls Police were able to locate Isabella's deceased body in a trash can in the alley of the 500 block of Third St. Detective's also interviewed John Freeman. From these interviews we learned that Isabella was killed by Freeman and the two males then placed Isabella into a trash bag and put her in a garbage can. They then moved the garbage can to the location where we found her on Third Street. At this time we believe Freeman killed Isabella with his bare hands (no weapons involved) and that Best was only involved after she was deceased and assisted with moving her remains.
Freeman was described by family members of the victim as a "close" and "trusted" family friend. They also said it was also not uncommon for him to be in the home and around Isabella unsupervised. Best and Freeman are described as close friends.
Both Freeman and Best will be arraigned Tuesday in Niagara Falls City Court at 9:00 a.m.

Get 'INKED': Tattoo convention in Eugene
EUGENE, Ore --- Third Annual Oregon Ink Tattoo Convention kicks off in Eugene. The three day event features nearly 150 tattoo artists from around the US.
The event features tattoo contests, art galleries, shopping and live entertainment. This year several out of state artists will be tattooing in Oregon, something that was outlawed a few years ago.
In the past, the Oregon Health Licensing Agency prevented out of state tattoo artists from tattooing at public events in Oregon.
Brandon Ingram is an organizer of the convention and has been lobbying for the Oregon Health Department to change their rules about out of state tattoo artists.
In April of 2010, the health department changed the rule and now allows out of state artists to possess temporary permits so they can tattoo at public events.
"The guys that come from out of state a lot of them are booked before they even get here. I just talked to one guy he's booked for this show and he's already booked for the Portland show in six months," said Ingram.
Ingram said getting the health department to change it's stance on tattooing at public events was difficult.
"It was a struggle with the health department to get things changed over there, but recently they've been a lot more cooperative. They're finally really helping us out. I think they are seeing the big picture here," said Ingram.
He said the big picture being that tattoo conventions help boost the local economy. Last year a Portland show brought in nearly 10,000 people from around the world.
"The people here are hungry for something different. They see the stuff on 'LA Ink' or on tv shows or magazines," said Ingram.
Ingram said at this week's convention he expects about 4,000 visitors. The convention is May 6-8, 2011 at the Lane Events Center in Eugene.

A kidney transplant is a procedure in which a person whose own kidneys have failed are replaced, with a healthy kidney from another person. The newly placed functioning kidney takes over the work of cleaning blood in the body system.
When you are referred to Covenant's kidney transplant program, you will undergo an evaluation to determine whether you are a good candidate according to medical and psychological criteria.
The initial evaluation process usually takes a full day. You will meet with the entire transplant team including your coordinator, a transplant social worker and a transplant surgeon.
One option available is to receive a kidney from a member of your family. This kind of transplant is called a living-related donor. A living-unrelated donor would be a spouse, friend or even a stranger. One benefit of a living donor transplant is that once you have completed your evaluation requirements, the team can proceed directly to transplant.
Another option would be to receive a deceased donor kidney. The wait for a kidney is very much dependent on the candidate's tissue type, blood type and donor activity. Organ procurement and retrieval are coordinated through LifeGift of West Texas.
Ask your transplant team about paired kidney donation. This also may be an option for you.
The time it takes to get a kidney varies. There are not enough deceased donors for every person who needs a transplant. You must be placed on a waiting list to receive a deceased donor kidney. However, if a relative or living unrelated donor gives you a kidney, the transplant operation can be done sooner.

Last week, I had the pleasure of witnessing a fashion shoot in Paris for the magazine MKR styled by a friend of mine, Natalie Brodel. Being behind the scenes was such an incredible experience and gave me an inside look into some of what's to come for the online magazine's next issue. It has yet to be released, so consider this your exclusive first look!
The theme for this issue is "Humanity" and for this shoot the concept was a loosely based idea of conflict: war, apocalypse, light and dark with an angelic force in between the two.
The models were scantily clad, it's true. But everything they're wearing is right on trend with the dark utilitarian style that was shown all over the place for fall. This look is easy to duplicate and transform into more functional (and warmer!) every day wear.
Get the Look
The gold jacket Natalie used was one-of-kind, but below you'll find some pretty great facsimiles! Throw on some black ripped or embellished skinny jeans, a black bodysuit and some substantial gold jewelry and you're good to go!
[imagebrowser id=644]
The issue should be out in the next few weeks and we can't wait to see it! How about you?

The Handmaid's Taleby Margaret Atwood
Special Powells.com Offer!
Staff Pick
Atwood's classic dystopian novel of a terrifying (and terrifyingly plausible) future America has rewarded rereading like no other book; I've probably read it 30 times by now. The world of the narrator, Offred (from "Of Fred" — women no longer have their own names), is chilling, but she is a magnificent survivor and chronicler, and the details of everything from mundane daily life to ritualized sex and violence to her reminiscences of the time before (our contemporary reality, as seen in the '80s) are absolutely realistic. The novel is as relevant today as ever; feminist backlashes continue to wax and wane, but women's rights remain in the spotlight. And despite its scenarios of great despair, The Handmaid's Tale is ultimately a hopeful book — Offred, and others, simply cannot be human without the possibility of hope, and therein lies the strength of the resistance. All of Atwood is worth reading, but this book best exemplifies the cultural and psychological impact that a work of fiction can create.
Synopses & Reviews
From Powells.com:
Publisher Comments:
In the world of the near future, who will control women's bodies?
Offred is a Handmaid in the Republic of Gilead. She may leave the home of the Commander and his wife once a day to walk to food markets whose signs are now pictures instead of words because women are no longer allowed to read. She must lie on her back once a month and pray that the Commander makes her pregnant, because in an age of declining births, Offred and the other Handmaids are only valued if their ovaries are viable.
Offred can remember the days before, when she lived and made love with her husband Luke; when she played with and protected her daughter; when she had a job, money of her own, and access to knowledge. But all of that is gone now....
Funny, unexpected, horrifying, and altogether convincing, The Handmaid's Tale is at once scathing satire, dire warning, and tour de force.
"A novel that brilliantly illuminates some of the darker interconnections between politics and sex....Just as the world of Orwell's 1984 gripped our imaginations, so will the world of Atwood's handmaid!" The Washington Post Book World
"The Handmaid's Tale deserves the highest praise." The San Francisco Chronicle
"Atwood takes many trends which exist today and stretches them to their logical and chilling conclusions....An excellent novel about the directions our lives are taking....Read it while it's still allowed." Houston Chronicle
"Splendid." Newsweek
"[A] taut thriller, a psychological study, a play on words. It has a sense of humor about itself, as well as an ambivalence toward even its worst villains." Christopher Lehmann-Haupt, The New York Times
"The most poetically satisfying and intense of all Atwood's novels." Maclean's
"The Handmaid's Tale is in the honorable tradition of Brave New World and other warnings of dystopia. It's imaginative, even audacious, and conveys a chilling sense of fear and menace." The Globe and Mail (Toronto)
"The Handmaid's Tale brings out the very best in Atwood — moral vision, biting humor, and a poet's imagination." Chatelaine
First published in 1985, The Handmaid's Tale is a novel of such power that the reader is unable to forget its images and its forecast. With more than two million copies in print, it is Margaret Atwood's most popular and compelling novel. Set in the near future, it describes life in what once was the United States, now called the Republic of Gilead. Reacting to social unrest, and a sharply declining birthrate, the new regime has reverted to — even gone beyond — the repressive tolerance of the original Puritans.
About the Author
Margaret Atwood, whose work has been published in thirty-five countries, is the author of more than forty books of fiction, poetry, and critical essays. In addition to The Handmaid's Tale, her novels include Cat's Eye, short-listed for the Booker Prize; Alias Grace, which won the Giller Prize in Canada and the Premio Mondello in Italy; The Blind Assassin, winner of the 2000 Booker Prize; Oryx and Crake, short-listed for the 2003 Man Booker Prize; and The Year of the Flood. She is the recipient of the Los Angeles Times Innovator's Award, and lives in Toronto with the writer Graeme Gibson.

Canon's unwavering commitment to equipping an ultra-thin, clean-profiled ELPH with 12x zooming power required a redesign of the lens, sensor and other technologies. This pursuit of perfection paid off, creating the world's thinnest camera* with a 12x zoom. At an astonishingly thin 0.76 inches, it is significantly slimmer than competitors' 12x zoom models.

Canon is known throughout the world for optical excellence. Every Canon broadcast TV lens, 35mm film camera, digital camera and camcorder share this brilliant optical quality. And now, to take better advantage of that quality, Canon introduces a new Canon Exclusive feature.
The Canon 48x Advanced Zoom on the DC330 is just the kind of exclusive Canon feature you've come to expect from the leader in imaging and optics. Advanced Zoom extends the power of your zoom and is the longest zoom Canon has ever offered. In both wide angle and telephoto positions, there is virtually no loss in image quality throughout the range. How is this accomplished? With a Genuine Canon lens which remains in constant motion through the entire extended zoom range aided by our proprietary DIGIC DV II image processor.
The DC330 offers you more flexibility to get just the shot you need by giving you the choice of Canon 48x Advanced Zoom in default mode or you can select 37x Optical Zoom or 2000x Digital Zoom . You will always be able to get the shot you need, no matter how close or far away, and always with the quality you expect from Canon. And with our unique super spectra coating, which reduces flare and ghosting, the image you capture will be cleaner than ever.
Image Stabilization
And thanks to Canon's superior electronic expertise, the DC330's image stabilization system corrects camcorder shake instantly. The built-in, high-quality image stabilizer allows you to shoot professional-looking, rock-steady video -- whether you're recording sporting events, your child's birthday party, or a long focal length shot without a tripod. Your life never sits still, and the DC330 will help you capture it all.

The REALiS WX520 offers state of the art installation features in an LCOS projector. The projector's integrated mechanical lens shift increases placement flexibility, and the zoom lens provides a consistent f2.8 aperture with virtually no loss in brightness across the zoom.
The construction of the REALiS WX520 provides a new heat management system with a flat top and bottom for flexible placement. Optional feet (not included) can also be installed on the top of the projector for inverted ceiling type mounts. Two units can be easily stacked, still fitting in a compact space while doubling light output.
The REALiS WX520 can also be placed vertically pointing upward or downward with no ill effects for table type configurations. The new long life (12,000 hour) filter system addresses concerns about frequent filter changes, and a built-in test pattern makes configuration simpler without requiring a pattern generator or PC.

EPCA 2013: Industry sustainability means more than consuming renewables, says BASF chair
October 7, 2013 | Ian Young in Berlin
Fossil fuels will remain the dominant feedstock and energy source for the worldwide petrochemical industry for the foreseeable future despite the emergence of renewable raw materials in recent years, says BASF chairman Kurt Bock. In an opening address today to the European Petrochemical Association's (EPCA) 47th annual meeting, being held at Berlin, Bock said that the endurance of hydrocarbons should be a source of reassurance for the petrochemical sector, which faces a number of challenges. "The world will continue to produce and consume more oil, gas, and...

The librarys ongoing mission to achieve financial stability has been warmed recently by some unexpected generosity.
The library recently received a pair of $5,000 donations, according to Director Wayne L. Miller.
He declined to identify the benefactors at their request.
They wish to remain anonymous, Mr. Miller said.
Time wont be wasted in figuring out what to do with the money. The librarys $582,712 budget for 2013 is less $13,000 in city funds and without an $11,502 allocation from St. Lawrence County.
We will use these large and the many small donations given for magazine and newspaper subscriptions, new fiction books, ebooks, and movies, he said. To avoid reducing staffing and hours we may have to use some donations to cover basic operational costs that exceed the 2013 city allocation.

Read: Justin Schultz Will Be The Hardest Worker On Your Team
At ESPN Insider, Craig Custance spoke with Wisconsin coach Mike Eaves about defenseman Justin Schultz and not just what kind of player he is, but the kind of person he is.
Eaves says, "He's pretty grounded and he's listening to the advice of his group and doing things by the letter. You don't hear things from Justin. He's keeping things close to his chest. He'll go wherever he goes and he'll be the hardest-working guy there."
Eaves adds, "He's competitive as hell and probably one of the hardest workers on the team."
On the kind of player that Schultz is, Custance spoke to a scout who said, "This guy can shoot the puck. This is a guy who can walk the blue line on the power play with his head up all the time. He can fire wrist shots, he can pick holes. He can one-time it, but you'll see him score more goals on a wrister through screens. Every game I saw this kid play the last two years, I left going 'This kid is going to play.' He's a top-four guy, probably top three with power-play ability. He can step in the NHL next year and play. He's going to run a power play."

"Value is with Duncan imo, despite Parker being the obvious choice if you think the spurs win it all... with the way big men have had their way against the heat"
1* LSU (7:00 ET): If interested, I'd bet this one quickly. The line is likely to "soar" given that Florida will be w/o its starting QB Will Grier for the rest of the season due to testing positive for a PED. However, note that there's still substantial line value present given that over the summer the advanced line on this matchup was LSU -14.
Both teams are undefeated, but Florida is clearly the bigger surprise. They pulled the proverbial "rabbit out of the hat" against Tennessee, then shocked everyone w/ a 38-10 beatdown of Ole Miss in the Swamp. But they were +4 in turnovers in that upset victory. Now, without Grier, their are major concerns over an offense that twice in SEC play has been held to 21 pts or fewer. Treon Harris now takes over under center and quite frankly, I've never been really impressed w/ his play.
It's no surprise that LSU is 5-0 as preseason I thought they'd be undefeated heading into the Alabama game (on November 7th). They have arguably the best player in College Football on their roster, that being Leonard Fournette, who already has eclipsed 1,000 yards rushing for the season. Last year's two losses at Tiger Stadium matched the number of defeats they suffered here in the previous five seasons combined! So what I'm saying is that an outright loss in this situation would be almost unimaginable and all things considered, the line seems pretty low. In its last two visits to the Bayou, Florida has been held to a total of 17 points. 1* LSU

WeÂ've all faced the conundrum of having a closet full of clothes but nothing to wear. Rather than resigning herself to wearing something not quite right, Katie Nehra (todayÂ's Insider) got busy. Proving that necessity is indeed the impetus for invention, she created what she felt her wardrobe lackedÂ--versatile, any occasion appropriate, casually luxurious dressesÂ--and launched her own label, Simone by Katie Nehra.
ItÂ's difficult to not got nuts for the Simone by Katie Nehra spring line. This first season features six styles of frocks in loads of different cotton, silk, and chiffon fabrics. Celebrities are already snapping them up. Linsday Lohan and Michelle Williams purchased numerous pieces at the LA boutique Satine (Lohan bought four in one day), and Charlize Theron wears her cotton Simone dress on the beach in Malibu. If these credentials werenÂ't enough, Nehra was also featured in FebruaryÂ's Vogue and was written up in Women's Wear Daily. Nice work, especially when one considers that her lineÂ's only been in stores for three months!
Part of the reason for such fashion-insider fuss is due to NehraÂ's design focus. Who wouldnÂ't want a sophisticated frock that was equally fitting for a day at the museum and cocktails with friends? Digging on NehraÂ's muti-tasking sensibilities (this extends to her whole world: sheÂ's bi-coastal and primarily works as an actress) we thought sheÂ'd be a perfect source to consult about what to wear for a New York night out. Continue reading for all the things that the designer is currently into. We warn you though, before proceeding, keep in mind that NehraÂ's got fantastic, expensive taste! (see simonecollection.com for details on where to buy the line)
1. Spring Awakening, from $133.80, broadway.com
Â"I saw this new Broadway musical the other week and it simply kicks ass. If youÂ're planning on visiting New York (or live there) you have to get tickets (if you can, the showÂ's up for 11 Tonys). Duncan Sheik wrote the amazing music and I loved Jonathan GroffÂ's performance.Â"
2. Acne Dianne pumps, $400, openingceremony.us
Â"The thick, gray tipped-heel on this shoe is the best. I love how tough it looks, even though itÂ's actually really comfortable. IÂ'm just not into really skinny stilettos right now.Â"
3. Simone Jo dress, $575, Fred Segal Flair, 310.451.7178
Â"Okay, so IÂ'm a little biased with this one, but my eyelet cotton Jo dress is a must-have. I like throw it on, slip on a belt, and wear it with either sandals during the day or little heels at night.Â"
4. Chanel Levres Scintillantes Glossimer in Glaze, $25, chanel.com
Â"This gloss is great for so many reasons: its gives your lips the perfect hint of color, the consistency isnÂ't sticky or tacky, and the shine is ideal. Your lips look clean and natural.Â"
5. Stephen Dweck Oval Turquoise Ring, $490, neimanmarcus.com
Â"No matter what youÂ're wearing, I think a big ring will add something to almost any outfit. My favorite piece is a marquis-shaped ring from the 1890Â's that my mom gave meÂ--itÂ's very distinctive. I prefer pieces in a strong color, so a faceted, turquoise ring like this one from Stephen Dweck is a great statement piece.Â"
6. Chanel CC Punk Clutch, $2950, Saks Fifth Avenue Beverly Hills, 310.887.5355
Â"IÂ'm a sucker for Chanel bags, and right now IÂ'm obsessed with the black Chanel Punk Clutch. ItÂ's the perfect size for nights out and the rings on the side make it unique.Â"

Testicular Cancer
Testicular Cancer Overview
Testicular cancer is an abnormal growth of cells in the testicles or testes. The testicles are the male reproductive organs (gonads) where sperm are produced.
Male Illustration - Testicular Cancer
Cancer occurs when normal cells transform and begin to grow and multiply without normal controls.
Not all tumors are cancer. A tumor is considered cancer if it is malignant. This means that, if the tumor is not treated and stopped, it will spread to other parts of the body. Other tumors are termed benign because their cells do not spread to other organs. However, almost all tumors start to cause symptoms when they get large enough.
Testicular cancers can be comprised of one or several different types of tumor cells. The types are based on the cell type from which the tumor arises.
There are two types of germ cells tumors, seminomas and nonseminomas.
Testicular cancer is the most common type of cancer in young men 15-35 years of age, but it can occur at any age.
Testicular cancer is one of the most curable of all cancers.

Mets place Jason Bay on 15-day DL with fractured rib
The Mets have placed Jason Bay on the 15-Day DL with a nondisplaced fracture of a rib on the left side.
To take Bay's place on the roster, the Mets have promoted Triple-A infielder Zach Lutz, who is hitting .333 with three HR and 10 RBI in 19 games for the Bisons.
Last night, Terry Collins told reporters that Bay injured his ribs during the second game of the team's doubleheader against the Giants while diving for a ball in the fourth inning.
Collins said last night X-Rays were negative, though Bay underwent an MRI at the Hospital for Special Surgery in Manhattan this morning which revealed the injury.

You can transmog weapons, only if you are able to use it, ie shamans cannot transmog swords, priests axes, etc.

Last i checked both weapons had to have the same attack animations. Ie a staff and a polearm could be interchanged.
"transmorg" - all my hate...
But yes, it's a shame that fist weapons can't be modified, I very much prefer seeing my weapons sheathed rather than out of sight...
Then what is the reason, don't leave us hanging! : P

When Transmogrification was made, it was built around the idea guns/bows/xbows could be interchanged.
They said they're working on coding it so the others can, but it's not as easy as people think.

Well, i know its late to reply to such post (that is almost 2 months old) but if you still have these issues then here are my suggestions problem-wise.
1. For 802.11, i guess the only feasible option is ad-hoc network. It works for me at least.
2. Yes problem is with your IPTables, you need to setup proper routing between both wlans.
3. Per node sub-netting may not work under certain conditions, consider the case you are moving from one node range to another, the new node will not work for you till your DHCP lease expires and you get new ip from new node. If you try to use same sub-net for all nodes in per node sub-netting (as you mentioned) then there is a possibility that address assigned by old node is assigned to someone else in new node, causing an IP conflict.
4. For per node sub-netting using same sub-net (10.x.x.x) for all nodes, you will need separate DHCP servers, otherwise single dhcp server will do.
Thank you.
