Good morning....
A big thanks to Carol (CarolG), Jukka (Kuvailija) and Darryl (Carper123) for their UA's, much appreciated
There are no minutes in the Namib desert more important than the minutes comprising dawn. In the time the night fades away and the sun creeps towards the horizon, warm air from the Atlantic ocean sweeps over the cold waters of the Benguela current. This combination of opposites creates a thick coastal fog that can penetrate 100km into the desert.
These fogs and the fresh water they contain are the life essence of the Namib. Moisture condenses on the desert grasses and on the bodies of small creatures. These sparse drops of dew must sustain them until the next dawn.
V1...At dawn, these ants can be found sipping dew that has condensed on the grasses. In order to limit water loss, they breath in short rapid bursts.They build their colonies in the soft sand under the grasses. These pink flowers are the size of a ladies finger nail so the ants are minute and hard to spot. V2 shows you how small the flowers are
V3.. The long legged beetle uniquely adapted to the use of fog. They have short front legs and long back legs.They climb to the crest of a dune or high spot in the desert and they collect water by facing the wind and raise their backsides to intercept the fog. This behaviour is known as "head standing" or "fog basking". Once the fog condenses onto droplets on their backs, it trickles down the beetles back towards the mouth. In a morning they can take in 40% of their body weight in water. During the day the beetle forages on the sandy surface and stays cool by running-creating its own wind these beetles were running so fast, hence my not getting a good shot , they disappeared so quickly.
V4.. Lithops commonly known as "Living stones" are probably the most well known member of the large succulent family of plants and are unique to this desert. These living stones consist of two lobed obconical (upside down cone shaped) body that is in fact a fused and thickened pair of opposite leaves. The stem is very short and not visible. They are referred to as living stones because of their close resemblance to the pebbles around them. They also rely on the daily fog for survival. Each pair will produce one solitary flower in Autumn. This flower is usually white or yellow or orange. You can see the flowers are starting to form. They open late in the day and close again at dusk. They are pollinated by bees, wasps and bugs that frequent the area.

This is the opening prognosis given in the Earthscan publication Water for Food, Water for Life: A Comprehensive Assessment of Water Management in Agriculture released today to coincide with World Water Day.
The Assessment, the first of its kind, brings together the work of over 700 specialists from hundreds of institutes around the world into the most comprehensive and authoritative assessment of water and food ever written, critically examining policies and practices of water use and development in the agricultural sector over the last 50 years.
Spearheaded by International Water Management Institute (IWMI), one of 15 CGIAR agricultural research centres striving to increase food production, increase rural incomes, and safeguard the environment, the report is co-sponsored by the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR), FAO, the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands, and the Convention on Biological Diversity in a bid to find solutions to the challenge of balancing the water-food-environment needs
The assessment finds that 1/3 of the world's population live in areas where water scarcity must be reckoned with. While much of this water scarcity cannot be avoided, water problems can be averted through better water management. For example:
A litre per calorie. A main driver of water use and scarcity comes from us ?and what we eat. As a rule of thumb, about one litre of liquid water gets converted to water vapor to produce one calorie of

UPDATE: The National Snow and Ice Data Center says this winter's maximum sea ice extent was the sixth lowest since satellite data began to be collected in 1979. KUAC reports that in addition to the loss of 10 to 15 percent of the ice pack during those years, more of the ice is thin first-year ice that's quick to melt as the weather warms each spring.
The Arctic Ocean ice pack reached its maximum extent on March 15 and has begun its 2013 melt-off, says the National Snow and Ice Data Center. At the same time, scientists studying the effects of warming in the Arctic say that last summer's big melt-off -- which resulted in the lowest ice extent ever recorded in the satellite era -- is contributing to late winter and early spring cold spells and storms across the Northern Hemisphere's middle latitudes.
According to [Rutgers University researcher Jennifer] Francis and a growing body of other researchers, the Arctic ice loss adds heat to the ocean and atmosphere, which shifts the position of the jet stream – the high-altitude river of air that steers storm systems and governs most weather in the Northern Hemisphere.
"This is what is affecting the jet stream and leading to the extreme weather we are seeing in mid-latitudes," she said. "It allows the cold air from the Arctic to plunge much further south. The pattern can be slow to change because the [southern] wave of the jet stream is getting bigger. It's now at a near record position, so whatever weather you have now is going to stick around," she said.

Cleveland, Ohio (PRWEB) October 01, 2013
The new Waterhog Eco Premier and Premier Fashion Carpet Mats are made of recycled materials, but attractive and durable matting. These indoor-outdoor entrance mats remove and store dirt and water beneath shoe level between cleanings. They are recommended for sites with heavy foot traffic, including commercial buildings, hotels, restaurants, healthcare facilities, office buildings and more.
The Waterhog Eco Premier Mat consists of 30 oz. sq./yd. carpet fiber made of 100% post consumer recycled PET fabric from plastic bottles. The SBR rubber backing contains 20% recycled rubber from car tires, and can be provided with cleats for use on carpet, or smooth for hard floors.
The mats may be used indoors or outdoors, and the rubber-reinforced face nubs prevent the carpet pile from crushing, extending performance life of the product. The unique "Water Damn" allows these Waterhog mats to hold up to 1.5 gallons of water per square yard.
"Waterhog Eco Premier show that mats can be environmentally friendly but still attractive and durable," stated company president Dan Ruminski.
Waterhog Eco Premier Fashion Mats are made in the USA, and come in two styles. The Eco Premier has a rubber border, while the Eco Premier Fashion has a fabric border. They come in twenty standard sizes ranging from two by three feet to six by twenty feet, and eight different colors to match any decor. The National Floor Safety Institute certifies them slip resistant.

"We were surprised by the initially high bacterial counts," says Bova. Study results showed Legionella bacteria levels between 0 and 3,000 bacterial colony forming units per milliliter of water from electronic faucet samples.
High Legionella and overall bacterial counts were detected in tests of the newer faucets after the hospital's water flow from the city was briefly interrupted for a few hours before and immediately after the study began. The double interruptions produced a fresh influx of Legionella and other bacteria, requiring Bova and his staff to perform additional disinfecting water treatments, prompting the latest study investigation.
As part of the study, Bova and his team disassembled four of the electronic faucets and their component parts, two before the water was treated and two afterward, with swab culture tests showing Legionella and other bacteria on all of the main component valves and other parts, very few of which, if any, exist in manual faucets.
"Our findings show us that standard hospital water treatment practices are not effective at disinfecting these more complex, electronic-eye faucets of Legionella and other potentially harmful bacteria, even after remediation and additional treatment," says Bova, who has reported his findings to the faucet manufacturer, the Chicago Faucet Co., in Des Plaines, Ill. "We would have to take apart, clean and disinfect the entire faucet assembly, every time, which is simply not practical or cost-effective."
Among the study team's other observations were that the electronic faucets were used continuously, between seven and 110 times per day. Such continuous flushing, says Sydnor, helps suppress bacterial growth.

Graphviz for Mac2.38.0 / 2.39.0 Build 20151005
editor's review
The DOT language offers the possibility to use plain text to describe a graph and then you can generate .dot or .gv files to share the data. Graphviz is a small Mac OS X application that is able to open this type of files and automatically render the graphs.
Fast installation process
Graphviz comes with its own installer package that places the utility in your Applications directory: the procedure is extremely straightforward. The next step is to launch the application and direct it to the file you want to open: Graphviz will take care of the rest.
Minimalist user interface
The Graphviz main window is reserved for the graph visualization, while the top toolbar includes buttons for basic functions: zoom out, zoom in and access the Attributes window.
Multiple layout programs
Graphviz comes with several layout programs and automatically selects the one suitable for the task at hand: dot (for hierarhical drawings), neato (can deal with "spring models"), fdp (uses the Fruchterman-Reingold heuristic), sfdp (a fdp version for big graphs), twopi (produces radial layouts) and circo (creates circular layouts).
Graph, nodes and lines customization options
Moreover, via the Attributes window, you get to change various aspects related to the graph representation. The capabilities are organized by target: graph, nodes and connection lines.
This way you can add hyperlinks, change the font style, the color scheme, the nodes shape, and much more. Note that for each option, Graphviz provides a short description in the bottom area of the Attributes panel.
Simple yet powerful graph visualization software
Graphviz provides a minimalist yet efficient solution for quickly viewing graphs described in plain text, by using the DOT language. Since the app is offering support for multiple layout programs, it will prove to be able to handle both simple and more complex graphs.

SAN CLEMENTE, Calif., May 12 /PRNewswire/ -- USGI Medical, Inc. (USGI), the leader in incisionless surgery, announced today that the company has licensed its incisionless surgery technology to Intuitive Surgical (Nasdaq: ISRG) for use in medical robotics applications. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
"We've been impressed by USGI's technical and clinical development including their intellectual property," said Gary Guthart, president and chief operating officer of Intuitive Surgical Inc. "The combination of USGI's intellectual property with Intuitive's robotic capabilities allows for compelling possibilities for future robotic products."
USGI's incisionless surgery platform, the EndoSurgical Operating System(TM) (EOS), is designed to address a wide range of surgical indications. Surgeons and gastroenterologists currently use the EOS to perform endolumenal (procedures within the GI tract) and translumenal procedures through the body's natural orifices (these are commonly referred to as "NOTES" or Natural Orifice Translumenal Endoscopic Surgery). Eliminating skin incisions may reduce the risk of infection and associated complications and may result in less post-operative pain, faster recovery time and no abdominal scars for patients.
"This agreement with Intuitive Surgical is another step forward in our efforts to establish the EOS as the leading, most complete surgical platform for Incisonless Surgery," said USGI Medical CEO Eugene Chen. "Many of the country's leading physicians have used the EOS to complete a wide range of groundbreaking incisionless procedures. We believe that mechanical and robotic solutions complement each other and together will advance and expand this field to a wider group of procedures and patients."
Surgeons have used USGI's EOS to complete the first transgastric gall

Red tape slashed in housing market paperwork
Posted on Monday, January 23 2012 at 3:26 PM
Homebuyers and sellers in Queensland will soon be using just one contract, under a plan to slash red tape in the housing market.
The move, expected to be finalised by the end of February, could decrease legal costs and reduce the number of forms, according to Queensland Premier Anna Bligh.
"Simplifying the paperwork involved in a residential property contract will not only help conveyance lawyers and real estate agents, but we believe the public will benefit from less paperwork and associated costs," Bligh says.
The requirements in a house contract currently include the need for a sustainability declaration, a pool safety declaration, a warning statement, an information sheet, disclosure statement and the contract of sale.
"At the moment each one of these means a separate form, each with a fee, and often repeating the same type of information," Bligh says.
"We intend to rid the industry of unnecessary complications making it easier to buy and sell a home in Queensland."
The Queensland Government is also proposing to incorporate flood mapping data into the 'one contract', pending the recommendations of the Queensland Floods Commission of Inquiry.

This portrait of Caroline of Brunswick was painted after her separation from the Prince of Wales. Thomas Lawrence - rumoured to be among her lovers - depicts her here in defiant mood, her left hand and wedding ring deep in shadow. Her dress is of striking red velvet. Its ruff of fine muslin and 'rolled-up' sleeves, secured with gold braid, illustrate the popularity of the Renaissance as an influence on female court costume at this time. A tight whaleboned corset worn underneath this gown accentuates Caroline's figure. Her matching hat is trimmed with bird-of-paradise feathers and she is heavily rouged. Court fashions were often rather removed from those of the world outside; the outdated hooped dresses of the 1740s, for example, were still worn until around 1820.

Iona Rallies Past Women's Basketball
Feb. 22, 2013
NEW ROCHELLE, N.Y. - A three-point field goal by Alyssa Sutherland put the Greyhounds down by two, but after two trips to the free throw line Loyola University Maryland fell to the Iona College Gaels, 67-61, in Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference play.
Katie Sheahin led Loyola (10-16, 5-10 MAAC) with 14 points, while junior Nneka Offodile scored double-digits in back-to-back games, adding ten points to the effort.
The Greyhounds came close on four separate occasions, knotting the score in the Hynes Athletic Center.
Steph Smith tied the score 10-10, after a Sheahin steal led to an open Smith in the paint. Moments later Smith added two more, 15-14, in favor of the Gaels.
The contest went scoreless for almost four minutes, until a Damika Martinez free throw 15 minutes into regulation. Offodile countered and tied the score 16-16, after a layup from Sutherland.
Five seconds before entering the locker room, Nicole Krusen sank a baseline basket to put the Greyhounds down by one, 22-21.
Loyola's bench outscored the Gaels, 6-0, during the first 20 minutes while Iona capitalized on four fast breaks to the Greyhounds zero.
Coming out of the locker room, Iona went on a 12-0 run, connecting on three-three-point field goals, helping the Gaels to their first double-digit lead of the contest. Rookie Tiffany Padgett halted Iona's run with an and-one play, 39-28, with 14:42 left to play. Nai Brown duplicated Padgett's performance, adding three more points to Loyola's effort.
The Greyhounds went on an 8-0 run, that was capped off by a Padgett jumper, 39-28. Loyola outscored Iona in the paint, 20-12.
Iona (15-11, 10-5 MAAC) led by as much as ten, with eight minutes remaining, after a Martinez jumper. The Gaels's guard led all scorers with 22 points, while Joy Adams and Haley D'Angelo added 17 and 11, respectively.
A Sheahin fast break cut the deficit to eight, while Sutherland responded with a layup 53-47. In the next five minutes, the two teams went to the line twice, before Sutherland's three put the Greyhounds down by two. The Gaels made four of their next four free-throw attempts, ultimately giving Iona the six-point advantage.
Iona made 21 trips to the line, connecting on 71 percent of the attempts. Loyola shot 88 percent from the charity stripe, going 7-8 Friday evening.
The Greyhounds return home Sunday, February 24 to host Marist College for Women In Sports Day. Tipoff is set for 3 p.m.

Former John Carroll pitcher, first-round draft pick Willems retires at 21
FORT PIERCE - John Carroll graduate and former first-round draft pick Colton Willems says he has thrown the last pitch of his professional baseball career.
Willems, who the Washington Nationals selected out of high school with the 22nd pick of the 2006 draft, told the organization he was retiring Saturday. The announcement came a day after a rough outing with the Class A Hagerstown Suns in which he gave up two earned runs in 1-1/3 innings.
The 21-year-old returned to Fort Pierce and plans to enter the regular work force before eventually going back to school.
"I just put my heart and soul into baseball," Willems said. "I've been doing it a long time. Over the past year or so I've made a lot of changes in the way I'm throwing. It hadn't worked out and I realize there are things to me that are more important than baseball.
"Baseball was always one of my favorite things to do, but I just got married in December, and my wife is pregnant now too, and I am realizing family is more important. I still have baseball but I wasn't getting anything out of it and things weren't working for me."
The 6-foot-4 right-hander had shown some success early on, earning New York-Penn League All-Star honors in 2007 with Vermont. He was bumped up to Hagerstown the following spring and finished the 2008 season with a 5-9 record and 3.70 ERA in 20 starts.
The Nationals promoted Willems to Class High-A Potomac last year, but he struggled in limited action, going 1-4 with a 7.40 ERA in only six starts before going back to the rookie Gulf Coast League.
Willems was reassigned to Hagerstown out of spring training this season and, working strictly out of the bullpen, he was 0-1 with a 9.49 ERA in 12-1/3 innings. He had allowed 13 earned runs, 18 hits and nine walks, and Friday the struggles continued as he allowed a run to score on one of two wild pitches he threw on the night.
"Things were going good earlier on," Willems said. "It was just last year was one of the worst years for me. I was struggling really bad, and this offseason I went out and tried to get myself on track. Things were good in the offseason, but then again things started going down hill so I decided I needed to come home and be with my family. I wasn't to where I thought I should have been."
Willems said the Nationals were making some changes to his mechanics, but when they didn't benefit him and he continued to struggle, he quickly lost confidence.
"It just didn't work," Willems said. "I couldn't find myself, and I spent hours and hours everyday trying to get back to where I was. I put so much time and effort into it, but it just wasn't happening."
Agent Mark Rodgers said he understood Willems' frustration but was surprised when his client told him of his decision to retire.
"If he is not having fun playing the game, you have to respect the decision," Rodgers said. "The last thing you want is someone to play baseball as a chore. He obviously was not having fun and he decided to take a step back."
According to a report by MiLB.com, the Nationals placed Willems on the restricted list so that he would still be under their control in case he decides to make a comeback.
Rodgers said he would applaud a decision to return, and he believed the Nationals would welcome Willems back with open arms.
"He is still only 21, he's never had an injury and he has a world of potential," Rodgers said. "The fact he has retired doesn't change any of those three things."
Willems said he was able to walk away without fear of later regrets.
"I'm not really worried about (regrets)," Willems said. "I know I have something here at home. I don't have to be rich to be happy as long as I'm with my family. Hopefully I will have a healthy baby here soon, and I don't have to worry. People can think what they think. They aren't in my shoes, and they don't know what I've been through."

Peru/Ecuador border
The border crossing at Aguas Verdes/Huaquillas
is an astonishing experience. First of all, one must know the Ecuadorians (well,
the military men in Ecuador, not really rthe common people and not even remotely
the indigenous people) are still quarreling about the exact position of the
border with Peru. In Ecuador you nay still look at map where the Northern
departments of Peru (Tumbes, Jaen and Iquitos) are considered to be part of
Ecuador - as you con easily imagine this has nothing to do with people, but it's
just a matter of oil production areas. Knowing this, the funny thing is that
Peru and Ecaudor have different economies and priorities, so that a lot of
popular items are cheaper in one country or in the other alternatively; the
result is that the border area is a huge street market - please, note that if
you're not a national of Peru/Ecuador you have to formally cleear the customs
and you will neeed someone to explain you where the check-.points are, because
you need to have the right stamps in your passoport - where the goods are
bought on the cheaper side of the border and immediately exported in the other country. Sometimes you will find fruits, fish and clothes in Ecuador, with hundreds of Peruvian buyers; a few months later, the same items are to be found in Peru, with screaming Ecuadorians buying them.
- Adventure Travel
Driest climate, sun, sand,...
Driest climate, sun, sand, salty breeze from the Ocean.... this is the result! The desert area around Piura, Chiclayo and Paita is rich in zoological findings! Cows, small ruminants, birds, seagulls, turtles: their skulls may be found in the sands, perfectly cleaned and may be artistically arranged.
The Peruvian coast is very very dry due to the coldest water of the Humboldt stream ,coming upwards from the South Pole, the rainfall along the coast is almost zero. The dry strip is relatively narrow along the southern coast (Nazca) and the central area, but in the North the strip widens so that Piura is literally in the middle of a desert. The desert becomes rocky going North, towards Tumbes and Ecuador. Tumbes itself is the Northern limit of the desert and the capital of an important oil extraction area: you may very easy travel from Piura to Ecuador, passing through Tumbes and reaching the border in Aguas Verdes, during the travel you will pass among hundreds of oil pumping stations, endless tubes
coming from nowhere and going in the same direction. The scene is somewhat dramatic, it happens that trucks may also be attacked by armed people, but you shouldn't consider this as normal.
In Tumbes, the collective taxi coming
from Piura will stop and you have to find a new one, if you want to reach the
border. From Tumbes onwards the road runs along the coast, the sea is incredibly
quiet in that area, small villages made of wooded huts are built rignt on the
beach, where tiny fishermen boats try to make a living out of the sea catch.
Vicus Museum
A good museum to gain an overall impression of the Vicus culture. There is a gold vault in the basement, which is open Tuesday - Friday and costs S/.4 - this exhibits items found in Vicus tombs in the NW of Peru.

The Show Must Go On: The Economic Realities of Touring
"The show must go on." We've heard that sentiment expressed in the music business many, many times over the years. But have you ever stopped to ask yourself why?
"The show must go on." We've heard that sentiment expressed in the music business many, many times over the years. But have you ever stopped to ask yourself why?
Just how "Young & Crazy" was Frankie Ballard growing up in Battle Creek, Mich.? The singer opened up to Taste of Country, admitting if he's ever mooned someone, cheated on a girlfriend or kissed someone more famous than he is during a game of 'Never Have I Ever ...'
When is Carrie Underwood's due date, exactly? The singer hasn't said, but Country Quickie host Nicki D thinks she's figured it out.
'Young and Crazy' may be the most biographical single from Frankie Ballard's 'Sunshine & Whiskey' album. The singer admits his wilder years have slowed him down, even if he was living life at full speed.
Cabin fever has a firm grip on Mainers, so how about some hot, new country music to break that funk? February is featuring many exciting new releases. Here's what your ears can look forward to!
Frankie Ballard is starting out the new year with details on his upcoming album, 'Sunshine & Whiskey.'
Frankie Ballard is gearing up for the Feb. 11 release of his new album 'Sunshine & Whiskey,' and to get fans excited, Taste of Country is exclusively premiering this live video of the singer performing the song in an intimate setting.
As we welcome 2014, there is a lot of great country music to look forward to. Here's just a sample of what new music is coming up early in 2014.
Frankie Ballard has had two top 40 country songs in his country music career, but he hasn't had that big breakout hit yet. That could change with his new single called 'Helluva Life' that has just been released to country radio.

Milwaukee Opera Theatre, Genghis Barbie rock the art song
Audiences at opera singers' recitals do not, customarily, pump their arms and cheer. Of course, singers at said recitals don't usually perform tunes by Queen and Guns N' Roses flanked by a quartet of female horn players, either.
Saturday evening's Milwaukee Opera Theatre presentation of Andrew Wilkowske in "Guns N' Rosenkavalier," directed by John Glover at the Wisconsin Conservatory of Music, was a riot of rule-breaking, genre-bending tunes from the worlds of art song and rock. »Read Full Article

Like most compromise vehicles it won't be a very good airplane or car. Think motorsailer in boats. Not an efficieent sailboat or motorboat.
I would love to own one. Maybe someday.
This idea crops up every now a then. The earliest I remember was one made in the 1930s made by Albert Gore Sr. (father of VP Al Gore). Someone else tried in the 1950s. None catch on. As Jeff said (below) too many things have to be compromised.
no flying car because no pilots!

Prototype flight is latest step toward liftoff for flying cars
duplicate squawk - video. Personally, we'd rather have a contraption like the one that pushes George Jetson out of bed and into the shower every morning, but flying cars are pretty cool, too. At least two manufacturers have announced that their auto-airplane amalgams have taken flight, if only in test runs. Terrafugia says its Transition Street-Legal Airplane prototype made its maiden flight on March 23, while PAL-V's Personal Air and Land Vehicle takes to the skies in the "crazily awesome" video shown here.

The junior signal-called had a monster game in Jefferson's win over Newsome. He was 17 of 27 passing... For 285 yards... Four TD passes... And a rushing touchdown.
A game Deiondre could only dream about.
"Oh, I want to throw for 300 yards, six touchdowns," Deiondre told 10 News. "You make goals, and to accomplish my goals, it felt good. It felt like we had the old Quentin Williams back on the field, and I was watching him. But this time it was actually me out there."
Jefferson plays at Plant Friday night.

First roadtrip, couple of questions.
So I took my new to me 2001 F250 on its first road trip this last weekend. Went to Vegas. About a 5 hour drive each way. Overall it went really really well. I do have a couple questions though.
First, this is my first diesel truck, so keep that in mind. The truck is a lifted 2wd crew cab short bed. Its got a 6" lift with 35" all terrain tires. I have daily driven the truck for the last month or so. Putting a good amount of miles on it every week. This was my first road trip though. Now for my questions.
1. When I got to Vegas I got out of the truck and smelled diesel. At first I thought I was crazy and told myself of course I would smell diesel, its a diesel truck. But ultimately, of all the miles that I have put on the truck over the last month or so, I had never smelt it like this before. From outside the truck I primarily smell it from the driver side, can smell it at the front, but don't smell it on the passenger side. So is this normal or should I be looking for some kind of leak? Could it be the fuel cap?
2. I am hearing a pretty good "hum" from what I assume is the tires. I have had tires that hummed on some of my lowered trucks, but this is not quite the same as I have heard in the past so I thought I would ask. I heard it from the front driver side tire, but that could be just because thats the one I was closest too. Anyways, normally I would expect the hum to be pretty consistent but this seemed to be different. The only way I can explain it is that it would get louder when the suspension loaded up and quiter when it unloaded. Like if you were going over some smooth hills in the freeway, when the truck would hit the bottom of the hill and compress it would get loud but at the top of the hill it would get quieter. Sometimes it would seem louder than others. It just struck me as odd that it was such a big difference in the droan so I didn't know if this would be normal for larger offroad tires or if it might be something bigger like the wheel bearings telling me something.
Thanks for your help.
All your fuel lines are on the drivers side frame rail and your fuel pump is below your driver side front door on the frame. If you smell fuel then I'd check the lines. Start at the fuel tank and start working your way down to the fuel filter just to be certain.

you didnt smell the fuel from within the cab?
And for the hum, may want to pull the hub/s off and hit the bearings. Also, might try balancing the wheels.
Yeah, I took a quick look and didn't see anything obvious. Going to take a closer look in the morning. Are there any common leak points to look out for?
Thanks, wheels were balanced before the trip. Will get them checked out just to make sure.
I did not smell the fuel in the cab until I opened the window. That was the first time I smelt it. The first time was at a gas station parking lot so I didn't think much of it, but when I smelt it at the hotel parking lot with no other diesels around I started paying more attention and it was for sure from my truck.
once you check the fuel lines under the truck, check the connections at the fuel bowl and make sure there's no leaks around the fuel filter. It could be leaking from there and burning off on the engine.
Regarding your tires, what are they exactly? Some tires are louder than others and will hum different sounds. It's normal for an aggressive tire to scream while going down the road and get louder if you slam on the brakes, make a hard turn, or load the suspension at the bottom of the hill. These maneuvers should increase the volume of the tire for that quick second. It's just your tire applying more of that aggressive tread surface to the ground.
Maybe check your tire pressure and make sure youre not slightly over inflated also. I wouldnt worry too much about the hum. Again, post back at exactly what your tire is and I'll look it up if I'm not familiar and compare your tread pattern. My Mud Grapplers scream (almost deafening with the windows down) when driving but I love it.
OP...is/was your "vent" switch on ANY setting besides "off". Weird how you didnt smell fuel from within the cab. Like others said, i'd climb atop the motor and look into the valley.
Thanks for all the replys.
I had the A/C going the entire trip. Its still fairly hot out here in the southwest.
The tires are Falken Rocky Mountain ATS tires. Not super aggressive really.
As for the leak, I got under there this morning and this is what I found. Fuel lines and pump connections were all dry. Underside of the fuel tank is wet, drive shaft is wet, transmission pan is wet, everything forward of the inspection cover hole is dry. The exhaust and most of the stuff on the passenger side is dry as well. I got under the hood and found a nice little puddle of fuel in the valley. I couldn't see exactly where it was coming from, but there is definitely fuel in the valley. I would assume that there is some kind of leak at the fuel bowl.

So I have Asperger's-- now what?

Hi Everyone!
I'm not diagnosed (yet), but I know I have it. I've been reading about it on the internet and in Tony Attwood's 'The Complete Guide to Asperger's Syndrom', and I either have Asperger's, or somebody changed the English language and everybody knew about it except for me (hey, it seems like that kind of thing happens to me a lot!)
Now I'm in the process of reviewing all of the strange inexplicable things that have happened to me all my life and seeing how they fit in with having Asperger's, and trying to figure out how I'm supposed to move forward.
One of the first things I have been trying to do is find a local group that I could join and meet with. It seems that the only active group in San Diego might be the one on Meetups, which is limited to 18-30 year olds, and I'm 34, so I'm SOL on that one so far.
I guess I should probably pick up some kind of handy reference that I assume Aspies get, so I can start learning about the strange customs and cultural practices of the neurotypicals.
I am not sure how or if I should go about getting a diagnosis. I'm nervous about going through Navy Medical, because I have been doing fine in the military for 12 years, and I'd hate them to use that as a reason to down-size me. But what other local resources are there for diagnosis?
I guess if there's any other helpful hints anybody has for newbies, I would be very grateful for any suggestions.
I'm a little excited and a little scared about being part of this planet.
Nice to meet you all!

Hey welcome here, I'm navy also, ABF2(AW). Been in for 6 years and a few months. Good to know there are other military folks in here. I'm in san diego area also. I'm not diagnosed, but have tried self diagnoses. I recommend seeing professional help if you feel like you can't cope with life on a day to day basis, but this is how I feel about myself also, I don't feel like I need any help coping. The way I am is the way I am. There's a lot of nice people in here that can give good advice on here also. I've recently tried to get help from my parents by asking if they've noticed stuff while I was growing up. Felt like I was being a wierdo by telling them this stuff. Well welcome to the WP.

Welcome to WrongPlanet Helium! I am also new.
I can't really help you with that as I am "Neurotypical" but you have caught my attention with the "strange customs and cultural practices of the neurotypicals" line. I'd start by not pigeon holing people - I may not have aspergers or autism but I don't completely fit in anywhere. I don't think anyone does.
One thing we do have in common is I hope to join the Royal Navy, so we both love the sea. Smile

I just saw this part. I was in 27 years. I would definately say do not go for an Aspergers diagnosis. There is no medicine etc, for it at the moment. They can only treat associated symtoms like anxiety and depression. I did have those diagnosis early on and it wasn't a show stopper as they are fairly common and treatable. They might only affect getting the highest level of clearences. But right now Aspergers is technically grounds for medical discharge unless you can get a waiver. Unfortunately the military doesn't realize how many good servicemembers (change that to how many of the best servicemembers) have it now. They don't understand it or know how to deal with it yet. If there is a problem that makes you feel the need for medical mental health assistance, do get it by all means. But call it anxiety, depression, stress, whatever. I would only go for an Aspergers diagnosis if I had wanted to get out.

The Afric Zone is the term used to identify a large section of altered and fractured felsic intrusive that has a SW-NE orientation across the bottom half of the GTA property. Within this 'zone' are multiple cross-cutting quartz veins, of which the Caly and Audney veins have been the most notable to date. While these quartz veins can contain very high quantities of gold, it is the larger envelope of lower grade mineralization within the intrusive that has the potential for building large tonnage. Collectively, this lower grade material, coupled with the higher (but narrow) grade vein structures add up to 1-3 g/t gold over the entire width of the 'zone'.
Previous work by both Noranda and Cyprus identified parallel alteration zones, similar to the Afric Zone. Zone #2 lies to the south (hangingwall) of the Afric, while Zone #3 lies further south yet. Zone #5 appears to be the extension of the Afric to the NE. Zone #2 is a parallel alteration zone to the north (footwall) of the Afric Zone. These outlying zones have not been as thoroughly examined as the Afric zone itself although GTA has recently been stepping out to test some of these (holes pending).
It seems likely the Afric Zone will continue onto the Strike Minerals holdings. GTA's most south-westerly test of the Afric Zone is but 200 meters from STK's boundary. Strike has yet to mobilize a drill onto their property.
Considerable more drilling is required to better understand these alteration zones and I suspect that additional high grade veins will be encountered in future drilling both within the Afric Zone and outlying Zones. I have plotted the most southwesterly holes to date by GTA to show the location of recent drilling. The Caly and Audney veins have been plotted to show their orientation with respect to the Afric Zone (see map).
Hope that helps.

We were stuck in traffic and in danger of being late to the tour but the guides and staff were super nice and promised to make sure we were not disappointed. We did manage to arrive in the nick of time so no accomodation was needed after all. The segway tour was so much fun we are already looking forward to the next one.
Reviewed by: Jeff S, August 2015
Wonderful tour! Kate was our tour guide and was so friendly and fun!! My only recommendation is to have a larger pre-tour practice area. Beginners need a little more space to get comfortable with the machine. We will definitely be taking another tour when we travel to Chicago next year!!!!

Hi there,
I want to use my calendar as a list, but I do not want to have the "single event page" - I want the links to go straight back tot he original post that it was linked from.
ie I create a post, I then fill in the wp_calendar information. This then populates the "events list" that I have set up on the /calendar page.
(also, when I do this, it always put the events into "draft" and doesnt allow them to be published automatically.)
Then, when I go to that list, I had to assign the shortcode to a page ... that means, that there are two pages for information on my site, and I only want to use one, the original one, and have everything link back to that.
How can I do this? Please bare in mind, I am not a php developer nor coder, but I can probably hack some code ... let me know what I am doing wrong.
also - any way of integrating google maps with this thing?

The Energy Biosciences Institute at the University of Illinois recently helped fund two research projects that provide recommendations to prevent invasive species from being planted as new crops and used for bioenergy production. The two studies are: (1) "Resolving Regulatory Uncertainty: Legislative Language for Potentially Invasive Bioenergy Feedstocks"; and (2) "Bioenergy Feedstocks at Low Risk for Invasion in the U.S.: A 'White List' Approach."
The first study recognizes that considerations related to potential invasiveness are not now required as part of EPA's approval process for new fuel pathways under the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS). Accordingly, the study defines "invasive" and suggests regulations that could become a part of the RFS.
The second study establishes a "white list" of 49 plants for bioenergy production that would be considered low-risk for potential invasiveness.
The College of Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences at the University of Illinois recently published an article on the two research projects. That article is available online.

Mich. RNC Official Defends Anti-Gay Remarks on Christian Show
The Michigan Republican National Committee member who is being pressured by fellow republicans to step dow, stopped by Bryan Fischer's show on American Family Association Radio to defend himself.Right Wing Watch reports.
Dave Agema, who has come under fire for a series of anti-gay Facebook posts and for his comment linking gay men, AIDS and free health care benefits, defended himself and his controversial remarks on Fischer's "Focal Point" radio show. A number of high ranking Republican officials have called for Agema to resign over his comments.
"Political correctness is taking the place of freedom of speech," Agema said to Fischer. "And if you look at what's happened just here in the news media and particularly in Hollywood in the Grammys, they are just shoving this stuff down our throats and very few people are speaking up. And if you do speak up, you can expect to be slammed, and that's exactly what they call it, slamming and jamming, what they're doing to me right now."
According to RWW, Agema compared himself to "Duck Dynasty" star Phil Robertson and boxer Evander Holyfield, both who came under fire for making anti-gay remarks.
Agema first made headlines last March when he posted an anti-gay article to his Facebook. His peers urged him to resign but he refused. He was criticized again in December when he apparently made remarks about gay men lying about having AIDS in order to gain health care benefits.

Welcome back! Let's continue our journey to Mars by bringing the 3 Musketeers along with us! Blessing the world in 1932 were the 3 Musketeers!
Not the famous trio, but the rich chocolate bar! Coming in 3 magnificent flavours; coincidence? I think not! Flavours such as chocolate, strawberry and vanilla. This bar consists of fluffy whipped chocolate surrounded by a chocolate encasing. Yet another one of Mars' light and airy creations.
One bite and you might just float away! Moving on to an M-Azing chocolate bar! The M-Azing bar came to us in 2004 with a few different flavours. Unfortunately the M-Azing did not last long and was discontinued.
FORTUNATELY in 2013 Mars Inc reintroduced with chocolate bar with a new name the M&M's Chocolate bar. This new treat contains mini M&M's in a milk chocolate coating. A fun candy snack now trapped in a chunk of chocolate for more chocolatey goodness!
Now I want you to think of a dove. A perfect piece of nature, this bird is beautiful, delicate and pure. Dove chocolate will live up to it's name. Though in some parts of the world pricing can vary and it is called a Galaxy bar, but that's probably because it is out of this world!
Dove was invented in 1956 in a sweet shop owned by a man named Leo Stefanos. Dove has an amazing range of chocolate bars and many different flavours; milk chocolate, caramel, fruit and nut varieties, truffle and chocolate pieces with a folded milk chocolate center just to name a few!
If you have not had a craving for a chocolate bar while reading this then maybe you need to talk to someone who can help you with your unfortunate issue. Everyone has the right to indulge and give into their craving once in a while. On that note I will leave you with a famous "Promises" quote by Dove. Temptation is fun…giving in is even better.

"The most effective way to prevent lung cancer is for men and women not to smoke, or if they are smoking to quit," Freedman said.
Thomas Glynn, the American Cancer Society's senior director of international tobacco control, said the study was very useful, given the debate over the last decade whether women were more susceptible to tobacco-related lung cancers than men.
"The conclusion reached that women are more or less susceptible to lung cancer goes back to the adage, 'Women who smoke like men die like men,' " Glynn said. "This study shows that women who smoked like men get lung cancer like men."

Also,the new theme I am using only shows a portion of each post. Is there a way to change that? I have checked "full text" in the reading settings.

Caribbean Sovereignty, Development and Democracy in an Age of Globalization
Many of the nations of the Caribbean that have become independent states have maintained as a central, organizing, nationalist principle the importance in the beliefs of the ideals of sovereignty, democracy, and development. Yet in recent years, political instability, the relative size of these nations, and the increasing economic vulnerabilities of the region have generated much popular and policy discussions over the attainability of these goals. The geo-political significance of the region, its growing importance as a major transshipment gateway for illegal drugs coming from Latin America to the United States, issues of national security, vulnerability to corruption, and increases in the level of violence and social disorder have all raised serious questions not only about the notions of sovereignty, democracy, and development but also about the long-term viability of these nations.
This volume is intended to make a strategic intervention into the discourse on these important topics, but the importance of its contribution resides in its challenge to conventional wisdom on these matters, and the multidisciplinary approach it employs. Recognized experts in the field identify these concerns in the context of globalization, economic crises, and their impact on the Caribbean.less
