Colleges in the Golden State would be prohibited from requesting access to students' social media accounts under legislation passed Tuesday by the California Senate. Gov. Jerry Brown has until Sept. 30 to sign the bill, SB 1349, into law. Similar legislation passed in Delaware last month, and another bill passed the Maryland Senate but ultimately stalled. Colleges including the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and the University of Louisville have come under criticism recently for monitoring athletes' social media activities (with the students' knowledge) by demanding access to their accounts, requiring them to "friend" athletics department employees on Facebook, and using software to monitor who publishes words such as "drunk driving" and "drugs." Some of the bills, including the one in California, have been counterparts to legislation prohibiting employers from regulating employees' social media use.

Charting the Novel-verse

Re: Charting the Novel-verse
Newest update will be pretty straighforward for the most part--
In TNG core continuity, I will be adding
Typhon Pact: The Struggle Within By Christopher L. Bennett (Changing from working title to final title)
Typhon Pact: Brinksmanship by Una McCormack
Cold Equations by David Mack--
The Persistance of Memory
Silent Weapons
The Body Electric
The Stuff of Dreams by James Swallow
Adding "Cold Equations" note to "Immortal Coil".
In DS9, Adding
Typhon Pact: Plagues of Night
Typhon Pact: Raise the Dawn
The Fall: (Final title unannounced) all by DRG3
VOY: Adding
The Eternal Tide-Beyer
Unnamed Beyer book
Rise of the Federation-- Bennett
Add "In Tempest Wake" by Dayton Ward
Typhon Pact--
RBoE TOS/DS9--DRG3
Plagues TOS/TNG/DS9 --DRG3
Dawn DS9-- DRG3
Brinksmanship TNG/AVE- Una McCormack
Creating DTI sub-catagory.
TOS is a little less straightforward and I can use a little help. I know "Rings of Time" is consistent with DTI, and "In Tempest Wake" is consistent with VAN, but other TOS works are more stand-alone than novel-verse friendly.
I have "A Choice of Catastrophes" listed, but am not really sure if there is anything there to tie it to the novel-verse. Haven't read "That Which Divides" yet, so I could some help with that one.
Upcoming TOS works include, "Shock of Adversity" by William Leisner, "Shadows of History" by Dayton Ward, "Alligence in Exile" by DRG3, "The Weight of Worlds" by Greg Cox, "The Folded World" by Jeff Mariotte and "Devil's Bargain" by Tony Daniel and I have no idea yet if any of these will be novel-verse friendly. I shall be making enqueries.
Is there anything that's been released/announced that I may have missed?
I hate having thoughts on the top of my head. They usually jump off and commit suicide.

I have recently came back to modding X3: Terran Conflict, it must be this time of year. I was doing three projects when I left, and I have finally came back to update this one. My goal this time was to make the more stable, add more ships, improve the graphics and generally improve things.
Normally when I release a new version I would write a news post before releasing it, however at the time of releasing Beta 3.0 I knew it was not finished in any way. So I have been releasing patches nearly every day since, it is currently up to beta 3.5. I think in its current state its worth advertising it.
When I initially released beta 3.0 (March 05 11) I basically just sorted it out and tried to remember how it worked. To start of with I began bringing over features from my other mod X-Universe Modular Mod, the x-universe mod was actually designed to be an experiment of new ideas so I could incorporate them later into the X1PF mod. So I did.
The mods I brought over included the shield effects mod, directional jet texture enhancement, x2 weapons, the new version of the planet plugin, and the transparent HUD plugin.
However that was not all..
Later on in 3.1 (March 06 11) I worked on killing bugs, first of I took out the X2 Capital ships and my custom ships as they needed more work. Next I fixed the wrong space suit cockpit problem then was to fix the IRE performance issues.
Now onto 3.2 (March 07 11), this was another bug killing patch. The patch fixed the following problems:
Patch 3.3 (March 08 11) was basically coming up with new names for ships, reworking the text files and improving the shield effect.
Patch 3.4 (March 10 11) I actually developed the mod a bit, I did some more work on the shield mod and planet textures as well as adding the x2 boron fighter ships.
Today's patch (Patch 3.5 March 11 11) I didn't get on with at all. I implemented the x2 boron TS, this ship is very animated, and I don't know if it is the newer x3 game engine that does not allow it to animate the way it should or egosoft didn't do a good job. Can not remember how it looked in x2. I also had a go at re-editing the cloud textures, my first attempt made them look like a low resolution and second attempt made them too sharp. I'm probably going to revert back to the textures I had in Beta 2.0. Other than that I edited the Centaur Corvette's lenflares so that looks abit better.
Beta 3.1
Beta 3.1 to Beta 3.2
Beta 3.2 to Beta 3.3
Beta 3.3 to Beta 3.4
Beta 3.4 to Beta 3.5

* Need to edit shield texture (better)

It has been over a month since the last news post, and there has been some development of the mod in that time...
Beta 2.0 is here, now to enjoy new features, updates and fixes!
Tiring week but I have some ship renders and progression to show you...
Been a while since the last news update, so here is a news post showing the latest development of the mod.
No articles were found matching the criteria specified. We suggest you try the article list with no filter applied, to browse all available.Join now to share your own content, and encourage our community to get involved and engaged.
Next patch before the next full beta version of 4.0. But this patch adds more x2 ships and weapons. I have included the argon M1 and split TL but there...
A few fixes and new additions to the mod, for some reason the plugin manager is not liking installing my new MD files. So you need to copy and paste them...
I spent a lot of time fixing things in this patch, most of them where to do with the MD files which are still not working correctly. You *may* not have...
As there are so many patches now I decided to release a full version for you. No need to have any other version installed for this one.
I managed to get my custom ship in game, I was trying to do it the x2 way but it didn't like it so had to change my plans. The ship still needs work and...
Frustrating patch this time, many thing I didn't like. However here it is, you might aswell install it as it is a patch and you need it for the next one...
No downloads were found matching the criteria specified. We suggest you try the download list with no filter applied, to browse all available.Join now to share your own content, and encourage our community to get involved and engaged.
Ace, I've been watching this. Gonna try it out now.
Just tested it, seems to be save-game compatible.
At least, it hasn't crashed, and all the awesome new HUD and effects and whatnot are still there.
Everything works fine except for the stuff that really need a restart, like the new shipyard being placed that has all of the X2 and future ships. Have you thought of using an AL script to script the ships into the already existing shipyards instead? I know XTM did that in Reunion.
hope you enjoy it, i'm working on the next version now with all the x2 ships. I have also look into converting the mod back to x3r, but its more different than I thought :(.
I really wanted to keep them seperated but I can look into it :)
very nice looking mod for a very nice looking game
this should brighten up my X3 considering i have beaten it and are in need of new ships lol keep up the good work man =D
any comments welcome
finally got my first ship in game :)
I'm currently struggling to get the motivation to work on the mod atm, but I will try and continue again sometime soon. I guess the pressure of finding some work and the horrible weather is making it hard to concentrate on a mod, hopefully i can sort my life out soon so I can continue :(. Btw thanks for visiting and please click the track this mod button so you will get notified of any new updates :)

Do you all agree that a scene can still be exciting with very "mundane" camera movements. I mean, Best of Both Worlds, it seems the camera never moves unless it's following Picard getting out of his chair to go to the area near Data's console, but the scene is still exciting...

The QAD Ultra is going on my new CST when it ever gets here !!!!!
The one issue with the Octane Hostage rests is the bristles. They are not made of the same material as a whisker biscuit. They will wear oddly, and usually to one side or the other on the lower support bristles. The effect of that uneven wear is the arrow will not stay tuned to the bow. Groups tend to open up a lot as a sign of the misaligned rest.

The QAD Ultra is going on my new CST when it ever gets here !!!!!
I really like my ripcord code red. I've shot them for a few years. QAD are great too. Can't go wrong with a full containment for spot and stalk and great long range accuracy.
I set up more bows with whisker biscuits than anything, but I personally really like my ripcord. eight years on the same setup with no problems at all. Can't beat that.

I shoot the ripcord red on my bowtech experience and I have had no trouble at all getting it tuned right on the money. I hear what guys say about having a fixed rest, but what I have trained myself to do on every shot is to lock the rest in the up position as soon as I nock my arrow, this way the arrow is already in full containment before I ever draw the bow. At that point you just can not beat the advantages provided by the drop away rest. One of the problems with some of the early drop away rests was the rest would "rebound" and then inadvertently hit your arrow, but with today's technology and a properly set up bow you can't go wrong.

QAD Ultra Rest HD - never had an issue, works every time, manual or pull setting, great groups. I am not a gear junkie that switches out 3 or 4 times to try the new flavor so all I can say is this unit is solid.

I really like my ripcord also. However the qad is just a little easier to engage manually than the ripcord but they are essentially the same rest.
I love my whisker bis!! I had the same worries about long range accuracy but instead upgraded to Blazer Vanes 2-3in on my arrows, upgraded my release to a Scott Archery Wolverine and I hold tight groups at 60 yards.

December 1, 2015
In this week's edition of the Mid-Ohio Valley's Most Wanted, we have for you a Parkersburg man wanted for Burglary, Grand Larceny and Domestic Battery.
Parkersburg Police Sergeant Greg Nangle says they've been looking for Ricky Joy Jr. since last year, when he first disappeared after a domestic battery incident at a Parkersburg residence.
Then, this past Sunday, Sergeant Nangle says Joy and two other unidentified suspects, another male and a female, broke into a Stevenson Avenue home and stole a safe.
The safe had cash, ipods and jewelery kept inside.
"If a person has a safe in their home, it's better to keep that information discreet, keep the safe hidden and not allow people you don't know very well to be in your home," says Sergeant Nangle.
Police believe Joy could still be in the Parkersburg area.
So, if you have any information on where he could be, please call the Parkersburg Police Department at 304-424-8444.
You can catch the next edition of the Mid-Ohio Valley's Most Wanted next Wednesday on WTAP News at 6.

Garnish with purple Maori potato, vegetables and lightly fried kawakawa leaves.
Named after the Maori forest god, the largest living kauri has stretched to 167 feet in height in its 1200-plus years.
But even the most adventuresome eaters have probably never eaten Maori pikopiko pesto.
However one Maori king has refused to meet the royals saying the 45-minute window he was allotted was not sufficiently respectful.
The Haka, a traditional Maori dance, is best known as the pregame ritual of the New Zealand All Blacks rugby team.
The spokesman on this occasion was a big Maori from the Bay of Islands.
We have other Maori neighbours besides Tama and his immediate following.
The chief item on the programme was the "haka," or ancient Maori war dance, which was performed by four half-caste Maori youths.
This Maori town may be considered the metropolis of the Ngatewhatua tribe.
But in Maori the possessive case is expressed, like all the other oblique cases, by a preposition.
"Polynesian inhabitant of New Zealand," 1843, native name, said to mean "of the usual kind."

Blood is in great demand in January, as busy schedules, illness and weather can all be factors in keeping people from donating blood.
"Donating blood is one of the few ways to give back to your community in a way that saves lives," said AJ Green, spokesperson for the 3 Lives campaign.
Remington College will be kicking off its 2013 3 Lives (http://community.remingtoncollege.edu/
Green, a professional singer, knows firsthand the important role that minority blood donors play – he has sickle cell disease and receives regular transfusions as part of his treatment.
More than 8,000 pints of blood have been collected on Remington College campuses since the 3 Lives program began in 2010.
Every Remington College campus will hold multiple blood drives in 2013 and the public is encouraged to donate blood at these events. All blood collected will be used to help patients in the local community.

I completely agree, but it is what it is. I think it makes perfect sense to make the film adaptations more of a prequel to LOTR in addition to telling the basic story of the book. Tolkien himself even endeavored to bring
The Hobbit
more in line with
The Lord of the Rings
by going back and altering some of the text (most especially "Riddles in the Dark," for obvious reasons). He also wrote "The Quest of Erebor," originally meant for the Appendices, which served to explain why Gandalf decided to support Thorin's quest and how he convinced Thorin to allow Bilbo to join.
Although "The Quest of Erebor" was published posthumously in
Unfinished Tales
, so I'm not sure if Peter Jackson and Warner Bros. actually have the rights to that story.

Photoactivatable Quantum Dots in Super-Resolution Microscopy of Muscle
Date: December 2010
Creator: Akel, Amal
Description: Super-resolution 3D imaging was achieved using newly synthesized photoactivatable quantum dot (PAQ dot) probes. Quantum dots were modified with a novel quencher system to make them photoactivatable. The unique properties of these PAQ dots enable single-fluorophore localization in three dimensions using a confocal microscopy optical sectioning method. Myosin and tropomyosin of rabbit myofibrilar bundles were specifically labeled with the newly synthesized PAQ dot. A sufficient number of single quantum dots were photoactivated, localized and reduced to their centroid and then reconstructed to a super-resolution image. The acquired super-resolution image shows a lateral and an axial sub-diffraction resolution and demonstrates ultrafine striations with widths less than 70 nm that are not evident by conventional confocal microscopy. The striations appear to be related to nebulin thin filament binding protein. This newly developed imaging system is cutting edge for its high resolution and localization as well its simplicity and convenience.

Novel Role of Trypsin in Zebrafish
Date: May 2013
Creator: Alsrhani, Abdullah Falleh
Description: It has been shown previously in our laboratory that zebrafish produce trypsin from their gills when they are under stress, and this trypsin is involved in thrombocyte activation via PAR2 during gill bleeding. In this study, I investigated another role of the trypsin that is secreted from zebrafish. This investigation has demonstrated a novel role of trypsin in zebrafish. Not only did this investigation demonstrate the role of trypsin in zebrafish behavior, but also it showed that PAR2 might be the receptor that is involved in trypsin-mediated behavioral response. In addition, we have shown that Gq and ERK inhibitors are able to block the trypsin pathway and prevent the escaping behavior. Finally, the results of this investigation suggest that the cells that respond to trypsin are surface cells, which have an appearance similar to that of neuromast cells.

DNA Typing of HLA-B by PCR with Primer Mixes Utilizing Sequence-Specific Primers
Date: August 1997
Creator: Chiu, Angela Chen-Yen
Description: The aim of this study was to design a resolution typing system for the HLA-B gene. This technique involves a one-step PCR reaction utilizing genomic DNA and sequence-specific primers to determine the specificity of each allele and to produce a larger primer data base ideal for serological analysis. The application of this technique to serological analysis can improve serology detection which is currently hindered by antibody cross-reactivity and the unavailability of useful typing reagents.

Purification of Cyanide-Degrading Nitrilase from Pseudomonas Fluorescens NCIMB 11764.
Date: December 2010
Creator: Chou, Chia-Ni
Description: Cyanide is a well known toxicant that arises in the environment from both biological and industrial sources. Bacteria have evolved novel coping mechanisms for cyanide and function as principal agents in the biosphere for cyanide recycling. Some bacteria exhibit the unusual ability of growing on cyanide as the sole nitrogen source. One such organism is Pseudomonas fluorescens NCIMB 11764 (Pf11764) which employs a novel oxidative mechanism for detoxifying and assimilating cyanide. A unique complex of enzymes referred to as cyanide oxygenase (CNO) is responsible for this ability converting cyanide to ammonia which is then assimilated. Because one component of the four member CNO complex was previously shown to act on cyanide independent of the other members, its characterization was sought as a means of gaining a better understanding of the overall catalytic mechanism of the complex. Preliminary studies suggested that the enzyme belonged to a subset of nitrilase enzymes known as cyanide dihydratases (CynD), however, a cynD-like gene in Pf11764 could not be detected by PCR. Instead, a separate nitrilase (Nit) linked to cyanide metabolism was detected. The corresponding nit gene was shown to be one of a conserved set of nit genes traced to a unique cluster in bacteria ...

Comparative Mitochondrial DNA Sequence Diversity in Isolated and Open Populations of Southern Flying Squirrels
Date: August 1999
Creator: Cook, Melaney Birdsong
Description: Three populations of Southern flying squirrels were studied in the Ouachita Mountains of Arkansas to assess the impact of population subdivision-due to island formation--on the population genetics of Glaucomys volans. One island, one mainland, and one open population were investigated. A 367 nucleotide hypervariable region of mitochondrial DNA was sequenced in individuals from each population. Individuals and populations were compared to assess relatedness. Higher sequence diversity was detected in the open and island populations. One island individual shared characters with both the island and mainland populations. Results support the hypothesis that the mainland population may have reduced gene flow. Also, the island population may have been originally founded by at least two maternal lineages.

Bacterial Cyanide Assimilation: Pterin Cofactor and Enzymatic Requirements for Substrate Oxidation
Date: May 2004
Creator: Dolghih, Elena
Description: Utilization of cyanide as the sole nitrogen source by Pseudomonas fluorescens NCIMB 11764 (Pf11764) occurs via oxidative conversion to carbon dioxide and ammonia, the latter satisfying the nitrogen requirement. Substrate attack is initiated oxygenolytically by an enzyme referred to as cyanide oxygenase (CNO), which exhibits properties of a pterin-dependent hydroxylase. The pterin requirement for Pf11764 CNO was satisfied by supplying either the fully (tetrahydro) or partially (dihydro) reduced forms of various pterin compounds at catalytic concentrations (0.5 µM). These compounds included, for example, biopterin, monapterin and neopterin, all of which were also identified in cell extracts. A related CNO-mediated mechanism of cyanide utilization was identified in cyanide-degrading P. putida BCN3. This conclusion was based on (i) the recovery of CO2 and NH3 as enzymatic reaction products, (ii) the dependency of substrate conversion on both O2 and NADH, and (iiii) utilization of cyanide, O2 and NADH in a 1:1:1 reaction stoichiometry. In contrast to findings reported for Pf11764, it was not possible to demonstrate a need for exogenously added pterin as a cofactor for the PpBCN3 enzyme system. However, results which showed that cells of PpBCN3 contained approximately seven times the amount of pterin as Pf11764 (of which a significant portion ...

Linkage of a nitrilase-containing Nit1C gene cluster to cyanide utilization in Pseudomonas fluorescens NCIMB 11764.
Date: May 2009
Creator: Ghosh, Pallab
Description: Pseudomonas fluorescens NCIMB 11764 (Pf11764) is uniquely able to grow on the poison cyanide as its sole nitrogen source. It does so by converting cyanide oxidatively to carbon dioxide and ammonia, the latter being assimilated into cellular molecules. This requires a complex enzymatic machinery that includes nitrilase and oxygenase enzymes the nature of which are not well understood. In the course of a proteomics analysis aimed at achieving a better understanding of the proteins that may be required for cyanide degradation by Pf11764, an unknown protein of 17.8 kDa was detected in cells exposed to cyanide. Analysis of this protein by ESI-coupled mass spectrometry and bioinformatics searches gave evidence of strong homology with a protein (Hyp1) of unknown function (hypothetical) present in the bacterium Photorhabdus luminescens subsp. laumondii TTO1 (locus plu_1232). A search of available microbial genomes revealed a number of Hyp1 orthologs the genes of which are found in a conserved gene cluster known as Nit1C. Independent studies revealed that in addition to Hyp1, Pf11764 possesses a gene (nit) specifying a nitrilase enzyme whose closest homologue is a nitrilase found in Nit1C gene clusters (77% amino acid identity). DNA sequence analysis has further revealed that indeed, hyp1Pf11764 and nitPf11764 ...

Subcloning and Nucleotide Sequence of the xylO/PUWCMA Region from the Pseudomonas putida TOL Plasmid pDK1
Date: December 1997
Creator: Guigneaux, Michelle M. (Michelle Marie)
Description: The TOL plasmids of Pseudomonas putida encode enzymes required for the oxidation of toluene and other related aromatic compounds. These genes are organized into two operons, the xylUWCMABN operon (upper), and the xylXYZLTEGFJQKIH operon (lower). Here we report the nucleotide sequence of a 7107 bp segment of the TOL pDK1 plasmid encoding the region just upstream of the "upper" operon through the genes encoding xylUWCMA. Sequence analysis, comparison of base-usage patterns, codon-usage patterns, and intergenic distances between genes help support the idea that the "upper" and "lower" operons have evolved independently in different genetic backgrounds and have only more recently been brought together in TOL and related catabolic plasmids.

Isolation of a Pseudomonas aeruginosa Aspartate Transcarbamoylase Mutant and the Investigation of Its Growth Characteristics, Pyrimidine Biosynthetic Enzyme Activities, and Virulence Factor Production
Date: December 2004
Creator: Hammerstein, Heidi Carol
Description: The pyrimidine biosynthetic pathway is an essential pathway for most organisms. Previous research on the pyrimidine pathway in Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PAO1) has shown that a block in the third step of the pathway resulted in both a requirement for exogenous pyrimidines and decreased ability to produce virulence factors. In this work an organism with a mutation in the second step of the pathway, aspartate transcarbamoylase (ATCase), was created. Assays for pyrimidine intermediates, and virulence factors were performed. Results showed that the production of pigments, haemolysin, and rhamnolipids were significantly decreased from PAO1. Elastase and casein protease production were also moderately decreased. In the Caenorhabditis elegans infection model the nematodes fed the ATCase mutant had increased mortality, as compared to nematodes fed wild type bacteria. These findings lend support to the hypothesis that changes in the pyrimidine biosynthetic pathway contribute to the organism's ability to effect pathogenicity.

Characterization of Moraxella bovis Aspartate Transcarbamoylase
Date: December 2001
Creator: Hooshdaran, Sahar
Description: Aspartate transcarbamoylase (ATCase) catalyzes the first committed step in the pyrimidine biosynthetic pathway. Bacterial ATCases have been divided into three classes, class A, B, and C, based on their molecular weight, holoenzyme architecture, and enzyme kinetics. Moraxella bovis is a fastidious organism, the etiologic agent of infectious bovine keratoconjunctivitis (IBK). The M. bovis ATCase was purified and characterized for the first time. It is a class A enzyme with a molecular mass of 480 to 520 kDa. It has a pH optimum of 9.5 and is stable at high temperatures. The ATCase holoenzyme is inhibited by CTP > ATP > UTP. The Km for aspartate is 1.8 mM and the Vmax 1.04 µmol per min, where the Km for carbamoylphosphate is 1.05 mM and the Vmax 1.74 µmol per min.

China plan to board ships denouncedComment on this story
Manila, Philippines -
The Philippines has denounced Chinese plans to search ships sailing through what Beijing says is its territory in the South China Sea in the latest irritant between the countries.
The Department of Foreign Affairs said Saturday that the plans should be condemned by the international community because they violate maritime domains of countries in the region and impede freedom of navigation.
Chinese state media announced the plans, saying southern Hainan province, which Beijing says administers the South China Sea, had approved laws giving its police the right to search vessels that pass through the waters.
Last week the Philippines, Vietnam, Taiwan and India protested a map on a new Chinese passport that depicts all of the disputed areas as belonging to China. - Sapa-AP

Anchorage police shot Ieremia Unasa in the arm during a 2004 rampage downtown. But the 26-year-old Palmer man, charged Monday with impersonating a police officer, now says he wants to help the cops.
Unasa was behind the wheel of his wife's white, 12-year-old minivan when he allegedly pulled over another driver Monday night near Wasilla on the Parks Highway, according to a criminal complaint.
The other driver, 29-year-old Ryan Marley, said Unasa used hand signals and the van's hazard lights to get him to stop in a parking lot. Unasa told Marley he was speeding, the complaint says.
Unasa identified himself as "Officer J.R." from the Palmer jail and said he was working undercover, according to the charges. Unasa asked for Marley's license.
"Marley said Unasa asked him to get out of the vehicle and 'give him a hug' multiple times," the charges say. "Marley refused to exit the vehicle and drove away from the parking lot."
Unasa later told Alaska State Trooper Kristopher Sperry he was just trying to help the police and wanted to be a trooper, Sperry wrote in the complaint.
If that's true, it would be a surprising role-reversal for Unasa.
In 2004, police said Unasa drunkenly rammed several vehicles in downtown Anchorage -- including three police cruisers -- and mowed down a line of parking meters. A police officer and three others were injured, and Unasa didn't stop even when officers shot at him six times, striking him once in the arm, police said. Court records show he later pleaded no contest to first- and third-degree assault, criminal mischief and drunken driving.
In the Monday impersonation case, Unasa apparently admitted he'd pulled over drivers on other occasions. He told Trooper Sperry people believed his police officer act because he used his cellphone and phone charger as if he was talking on a police radio, according to the criminal complaint. Unasa also said that, in the past, he'd pulled over a drunken driver, a driver smoking marijuana and once talked to a 17-year-old girl who was smoking.
"Unasa stated he wanted to help troopers and be a trooper," the complaint says. "Unasa acknowledged it was not his job to pull people over and realizes it is against the law to impersonate a police officer."
Unasa is being held at Mat-Su Pretrial Facility -- the Palmer jail where he said he worked -- on $10,000 bail.
Troopers ask that anyone else who may have been contacted by Unasa acting as a police officer call them at 907-745-2131.

The best solution here would have been N- development, so I would try to reshoot if possible. If you haven't worked out film speeds and development times for N- development for your preferred film (sometimes it helps to increase exposure with shorter development times to support the shadows), it would pay to run some tests first or bracket and make duplicate exposures, so that you can adjust development time after viewing the negs.
I haven't done much flashing at the print stage, but that is a technique that Les uses, so look at his book to see what he says.
Alternately there is contrast masking, if you've got the registration equipment.

French Sugar-Beet Production Falls on Lower Yields, Growers Say
The sugar-beet harvest in France, the world's largest, declined after dry weather in June and July hurt yields, growers group Confederation Generale des Planteurs de Betteraves said.
Sweetener content in the roots also fell because of less sunshine in August and the start of September, causing production of sugar per hectare (2.47 acres) to fall 8.8 percent to an estimated 12.5 metric tons from 13.7 tons in 2009, the group said in a presentation at its Paris headquarters today.
White, or refined, sugar prices have jumped 60 percent in London in the past six months after rain reduced production in Brazil and India, the two biggest producers. The European Union is a net importer of the sweetener.
"There could be a certain tension in the market," Alain Jeanroy, the CGB's director-general, said at a news conference. "We had expected to rebuild stocks, and in the end that's not going to happen, that's why prices continue to be high."
French beet production is estimated to have dropped to 72 tons per hectare from 74 tons last year, while sugar content in the roots slipped to 18 percent from a record 19.4 percent in 2009, the growers association said.
Based on standardized sugar content of 16 percent, this year's beet production would amount to 31.3 million tons, down from 35 million tons in 2009, Jeanroy said. Actual output is around 27 million tons this year, he said.
Surplus Beets
French farmers harvested 2 million to 3 million tons more beets than can be used to produce sugar for the EU internal market, ethanol or chemicals, according to the CGB. Of the so-called out-of-quota beets, about 2 million tons have already been accounted for through EU export certificates, leaving as much as 1 million tons of surplus beets, Jeanroy said.
The EU should reclassify the surplus out-of-quota beets so sugar produced from the roots can be sold on the 27-nation bloc's domestic market, Jeanroy said. That would reduce "unnecessary" trade flows that include the EU exporting out-of-quota sugar while at the same time importing from countries including Brazil, he said.
High world-market prices have caused the EU to become a less attractive market for sugar exporters, meaning the bloc's imports in the 2009-2010 marketing year through October were 2.7 million tons, compared with expectations for 3.5 million tons, Jeanroy said.
The current EU sugar regime ends in 2014, and the bloc should maintain regulations including the quota and a reference price to protect domestic production, said Jeanroy and CGB President Eric Laine.
Brazilian Costs
"In beets, there is no country currently that that can be competitive in the world market" against sugar cane, Jeanroy said. "There is no need to change the regulation."
Beet-sugar production costs in the EU are around 400 euros ($534) a ton, compared to costs of 300 euros a ton in Brazil for sugar from cane, according to Laine.
"It will be difficult for the market to structurally drop below 14 to 15 cents, which corresponds to the Brazilian production costs," Jeanroy said, referring to prices a pound. Raw sugar for March delivery recently traded at 28.69 cents a pound in New York.

What would it take to get him? He would be the PERFECT backup to Baron and could comfortabley reduce his minutes. Pass first PG with that UCLA scrappiness that would mix perfectly with Baron/Barnes style of play.
I doubt Seattle would have too much interest in Pietrus with Durant holding down the swingman spot but you never know. Maybe him with a 2nd rounder to sweeten the deal.
I almost think Watson would be worth our 1st round pick next year (likely 15-19). I think with him on the floor Monta would get fed picture perfect dimes and alleys akin to how CP3 was feeding him during the rookie/soph game. I think Earl could work very well with Andris and Al as well.
Thoughts? I really can't think of a more fitting yet feasible plan for a backup PG.

Bears trade two third-rounders to Miami for Brandon Marshall
Bears trade two third-rounders to Miami for Brandon Marshall
The Dolphins signed Marshall to a four-year, $47.5 million extension in 2010, but the mercurial receiver brought too many headaches in the locker room and in the police blotter. The Bears are counting on the fact that a reunion with Jay Cutler can keep Marshall in line and give them the top No. 1 option they've lacked for years. It's a gamble for both teams, as Marshall's attitude could sabotage Chicago; meanwhile, Miami left itself precariously thin at receiver.

Trustworthy reviews are our priority. Businesses can't pay to change or remove reviews.
So good!!!! Our friend recommended her and I am glad he did.
She met Ryan and I with short notice to do our engagment photos in Grand Rapids, we live in Seattle, WA.
Her photos are amazing!!!!! I love her modern edge.
She is so creative with her photos from awesome poses to candid shots. He eye for photography is a true gift.
She is so nice. Her assistant was great too on the wedding day. They both were a great team. I want another wedding just for them to come take more pictures!!
Thanks for making it so much fun, and for not judging me for wearing indoor soccer shoes as my wedding shoes :)
So far so good! I havent seen all of my pictures yet. She did post some on her blog and they look great. I was very impressed with Kate's professionalism and personability. I was very comfortable with her. Her prices are great considering the area. I didnt have to talk to Kate much on the day of the wedding, she just did her thing without interrupting. She showed up in many of my guests pictures, so I know that she was all of over the place getting tons of shots. She had a good attitude throughout the day even though we kept her running around in the heat. She may not have years of experience, but she did a great job and I would recommend her to anyone!
KateBrown Photography was AMAZING. Her style appealed to me at first, and her overall professionalism and passion for her craft really sealed the deal. Our pictures were not only impecable, but so well taken. We didn't feel posed. We were just enjoying our wedding day, and it truly shown through. I am thrilled to be able to have those moments captured forever by someone so fantastic, and talented as Kate. I would refer anyone asking about a photographer to get a hold of her.
Kate is the best photographer! Her ideas and photos turned out fantastic! I recommend her to anyone! She made the whole day fun!
Kate Brown Photography did an amzing job at our wedding. Everybody loved them, both families, from Romania and the U.S. Their friendy personalities and professionalism was complemented left and right by everybody.
We are very happy we picked them and we thank them for all their hard work.
Thank you, Kate Brown Photography
Kate did a wonderful job for our wedding! She is such a hard working person, it's very rare! She has an eye for this and her pictures are just splendid! I would recommend her to anybody and although it's my pleasure writing about my experience with Kate, I think the pictures speak for themselves. I feel lucky to have met Kate and I am grateful to her for making my wedding day so special! Thank you Kate!
Kate was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!! She was always quick to respond to emails or phone calls, she was very fun to work with, she was professional, reasonably priced for what she did, and EVERYONE LOVED her!!! I would rehire Kate to do pictures for me anytime and I would definitely refer her to other people! She is a very hard worker and she also doesn't mind taking suggestions from you! She works for you and does what you need/want! My husband and I are pregnant with our first child and already plan on having Kate do the newborn pictures! I can't say enough good about her!
Kate is so talented! She isn't just a skilled photographer (her pics are beautiful!!), she knows how to listen and communicate. She'll work with you to make sure that your pictures are exactly what you want-- and she'll offer great ideas that you haven't even thought of yet.
Kate did our wedding photos in August 2009, and we are still getting comments about our "amazing" photographer....
We were so glad to have Kate photograph our wedding. She did a fantastic job and definitely exceeded our expectations. She has a great eye and will continue to do amazing work.
-Ben and Laura DeHaan
Amazing and very talented photographer! She was so positive and friendly when shooting our wedding and engagement photos that it kept a sense of intimacy between my fiancee/husband and I while still capturing great shots. I recommend Kate Brown Photography to ANYone I meet. I plan on using her for when we have kids, and eventually big family gatherings.

717. MiamiHurricanes09
Quoting WinterAnalystwx13:Disagree on what caused the MCS and later MCC yesterday. The TUTT in part helped fire some of the convection from last night but didn't do it completely, that convection burst was actually caused by vertical instability within 92L as the eastern quadrant was under 27˚C waters and the western quadrant of 92L was under 29˚C waters.
Do I expect 92L to survive after it passes the TUTT? Not at the moment no, why? Although the equatorial ridge will push the TUTT to the west and north I just don't see 92L getting passed the 30-50 knot shear, at least with its circulation in tact. At the moment I don't think 92L will be more than a rain event for the islands and possibly Florida in the long-run.

St. Paul, MN (SportsNetwork.com) - Zach Parise and Jason Pominville both scored in the shootout to lift the Minnesota Wild over the Toronto Maple Leafs, 2-1, at Xcel Energy Center.
After Parise lit the lamp as Minnesota's first shooter, Josh Harding stopped Mason Raymond and Phil Kessel before Pominville fired a wrister through the five-hole of Jonathan Bernier for the win.
"We beat a really good team," Wild head coach Mike Yeo said. "I love the way our guys competed."
Parise scored the Wild's only goal in regulation, with the assists coming from Mikko Koivu and Charlie Coyle. Harding made 19 saves on 20 shots after entering the game in relief of an injured Niklas Backstrom.
Toronto's Nazem Kadri crashed the net and made contact to the head of a defenseless Backstrom. The Minnesota netminder laid motionless on the ice for a few seconds before getting up and staying in the game for a few more minutes. The Wild announced after the game Backstrom is suffering from an upper-body injury.
Raymond tallied his sixth of the season on the power play in the second period, while Bernier stopped 33-of-34 shots in the defeat.
After a failed Minnesota clear, Jake Gardiner gloved down the puck at the blue line and located Kadri. Kadri dished the puck to Morgan Rielly, who fired a shot on net. Raymond quickly buried the rebound for a power-play goal to give Toronto a 1-0 lead 7:32 into the second.
Kadri caused more trouble later in the game, receiving a five-minute match penalty for an illegal hit to the head on Mikael Granlund close to the midway point of the third. Kadri threw a high hit along the boards, which sent the back of Granlund's head violently into the glass.
"(Kadri) made initial contact with the shoulder and (Granlund) had his head down. He didn't have his arms up, he ran into the player. Granlund snapped his head back and obviously, the referee saw it differently," Maple Leafs head coach Randy Carlyle said.
Minnesota could not capitalize on the extended man advantage, only mustering two shots on net.
The Wild tied the game with 4:17 remaining in the third. After Kessel turned the puck over in his zone, Coyle threw the puck to the front of the net. The puck ricocheted off Parise's skate and Kessel's skate before finding the back of the net.
The late goal sent the game into overtime.
Harding stoned Rielly with 29 seconds remaining in overtime. Rielly tipped the puck in on net, but Harding knocked the puck down with his glove and smothered it to force the game into a shootout.
Minnesota has won four straight home games ... The game marked Minnesota's
500th NHL game at Xcel Energy Center ... Kessel played in his 300th game as a
Maple Leaf ... Toronto went 1-for-3 on the power play.
Pope Francis' visit to Philadelphia in September has altered the date of the Penn-Villanova football game.
Kyle Busch won Sunday's road course race in Sonoma, California, but he still has a long way to go to become eligible for a spot in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship.
NFL players have a very short shelf life to make significant amounts of money so it's tough to fault anyone who has outperformed a contract when they go knocking on the door to ask for more.
Pete Mackanin will remain interim manager of the Philadelphia Phillies for the remainder of the season, the team announced Tuesday.
The Oklahoma City Thunder have reportedly retained restricted free agent forward Kyle Singler with a five-year contract extension.
The Detroit Red Wings signed veteran forward Brad Richards a one-year contract on Wednesday.

Forensic Art & Facial Identification MSc (and degree combinations)
Why Dundee
Forensic art encompasses a wide range of subjects, notably facial anthropology and identification, such as two and three-dimensional facial reconstruction, craniofacial superimposition, post-mortem depiction, composite art and age progression.
This highly innovative one-year taught Masters course will encompass all these fields, employing highly specialised tutors from scientific backgrounds alongside experienced forensic art supervisors.
Forensic Art and Facial Identification at the University of Dundee
A forensic artist may aid in the identification or location of victims of crime, missing persons or human remains, and may facilitate the identification, apprehension or conviction of criminals.
Why study this course at Dundee?
Did You Know?
- We organise internships for selected students after graduation in forensic and medical institutes across the world.
The MSc in Forensic Art and Facial Identification is a unique Master's programme. It was established in 2007 by the Centre for Anatomy and Human Identification (CAHID) and Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design (DJCAD).
Forensic Art is the presentation of visual information in relation to legal procedures. A forensic artist may aid in the identification or location of victims of crime, missing persons or human remains, and may facilitate the identification, apprehension or conviction of criminals.
Forensic artists require technical and conceptual art skills alongside comprehensive medical and anatomical knowledge. The course provides training and expertise at the cutting-edge of the forensic art profession. The course is taught by practicing forensic experts who work closely with international police forces and other law enforcement entities.
What is so good about this course?
You will benefit from the facilities of a well-established art college, whilst appreciating the newly-refurbished laboratories, a dedicated library and access to human material in a modern medical science environment.
The award-winning staff in the Centre for Anatomy and Human Identification (CAHID) are amongst the most experienced in the UK in the fields of human identification, forensic anthropology, craniofacial identification and the study of the human body. The core remit of the Centre is the study of anatomy and staff deliver high quality anatomy teaching at all levels, via whole body dissection which allows students to develop a sound knowledge of the human body.
The Centre was awarded a prestigious Queen's Anniversary Prize for Higher Education in November 2013. Presented in recognition of 'world class excellence', the Queen's Anniversary Prizes are among the most highly-regarded awards for the UK's universities and colleges.
Who should study this course?
This course will benefit artists with specific interests in the medical and forensic applications of visual art.
It will also provide a postgraduate qualification for police artists, and medical artists working in the NHS, who are seeking validation or further specialisation of existing skills to conform with medico-legal procedures and for registration with relevant professional bodies.
What You'll Study
Teaching methods include traditional and online lectures, practical workshops in the studio and dissecting room and small group discussions. These encourage debate around theoretical research-based solutions to current practical problems.
Forensic Art encompasses a wide range of subjects, including craniofacial anthropology and identification, traditional and virtual-sculptural forensic facial reconstruction, craniofacial superimposition, post-mortem depiction, composite art and artificial age-progression.
Forensic Facial Identification entails the study of facial analysis and comparison through standardised facial photography, CCTV and 3D imaging, morphological analysis of the skull and face, craniofacial anthropometry, eyewitness evidence, the cognitive interview and forensic facial composite production.
This highly innovative one-year taught MSc will encompass these fields, employing highly specialised tutors from scientific backgrounds alongside experienced forensic artists.
Semester 1 (60 credits)
In semester 1 the focus is on the study of anatomy through dissection, prosection study, illustration and facial sculpture and applying this to life art practice. Students will also be introduced to research methods and digital media.
Anatomy 1 - Head and Neck (15 credits)
Anatomy 2 - Post Cranial (15 credits)
Life Art (10 credits)
Digital Media Practice (10 credits)
Research Methods (10 credits)
Semester 1 may be also taken as a stand-alone PGCert entitled 'Anatomy for Artists'.
Semester 2 (60 credits)
This period is split over two modules covering the various elements of Forensic Art and Facial Identification. The first module will focus on Forensic Facial Imaging, Analysis and Comparison. This involves a practical foundation in standardised facial photography and 3D-imaging techniques, which together facilitate an understanding of the comparative techniques employed in forensic image analysis: including CCTV analysis, forensic facial image comparison and facial biometrics.
The second module focuses on Forensic Art: the scientific estimation underpinning the artistic creation of facial images from a variety of sources. In an attempt to identify the living, this includes faces created from eyewitness evidence; or from family photos, as in artificial age progression. In an attempt to identify the dead, this includes faces created based upon mortuary photos of unidentified bodies, the scientific analysis and interpretation of the skull to produce a forensic facial reconstruction, and the anatomical comparison of the unidentified skull and missing-person photographs in craniofacial superimposition.
Students will also undertake a module in Medico-Legal Ethics in order to gain an awareness of the legal and ethical issues surrounding professional practice in medical art.
Forensic Facial Imaging, Analysis and Comparison (25 credits)
Forensic Art (25 credits)
Medical-Legal Ethics (10 credits)
On successful completion of Semesters 1 and 2 there is an exit award of a Postgraduate Diploma in Forensic Art and Facial Identification.
Semester 3 (60 credits) - dissertation and exhibition resulting from a self-directed project undertaken either at the university or as a placement.
A variety of assessment methods are employed, including anatomy spot-tests; oral and visual presentations; portfolio assessment of 2D/3D image acquisition and of artwork; written coursework and examination, such as forensic case reports.
This programme aims to provide professional training to underpin your first degree, so that you can enter employment at the leading edge of your discipline. Career opportunities in forensic art and facial identification are varied and will depend on individual background and interests.
In forensic art and facial identification, potential careers exist within the police force and overseas law enforcement, as well as with private companies and in research. Also, many of the techniques learned are increasingly transferrable. Potential career paths include:
- Police or associated art and design departments producing forensic documents, image enhancement, CCTV surveillance, image collection, staff posters and presentations.
- SOCO/CSIs in UK or overseas law enforcement agencies
- Facial composite art practitioner and witness interviewer
- Facial identification services
- Missing-persons organisations
- Facial prosthetics
- Movie special-effects
- Archaeological artist working with museums, institutes and exhibitions
- Academia: teaching or research
- PhD research
- Medicolegal artwork
- Freelance art applications
Heather Goodrum, graduated in 2014
Maxillofacial Biomedical 3D Prothesis Technician, NHS Wales
"During the course I gained a comprehensive understanding and knowledge of head and neck anatomy and forensic techniques. Alongside anatomical learning, I was encouraged to explore a variety of art and design skills, which have been vital to my new career. The course allowed me to produce work within a cornucopia of media that has created a healthy portfolio of work, illustrating to potential employers a diversity of artistic skill. Working with innovative 3D software, and being taught the necessary techniques to produce visually pleasing and anatomically correct models has been one of the major aspects of the course that has allowed me to work within a career where I can apply and develop my knowledge. Practice within the field of journal/ paper writing, and reviewing techniques are essential skills that I am now applying to my current work position.Working within the NHS, I am fully aware of the increasing pressure on the use of 3D printing within medical implants and prosthetics. As a member of a research group, alongside my job role, my understanding of journal reviewing has aided me to approach research projects with confidence and competence, to use my knowledge to bring new ideas and observations to a research group."
Short term internships in forensic institutes throughout the world are offered to selected students following graduation. Internship institutes offer these internships based on the reputation of the course and its tutors and include the National Centre for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) in the USA and the Turkish Police Forensic Laboratory in Ankara.
