medical and scientific story.
Carlos M. Pinto, S. J., Apostle of El Paso. By Sister M. Lilliana
Owens. El Paso (Revista Catolica Press), 1951. Pp. xiii+228.
It is no easy task to write a biography of Fr. Carlos Pinto, S. J.
He was not deliberately uncooperative as was, for example, Judah
P. Benjamin, but even a sketchy outline of his career would
indicate a manner of living incompatible with the task of pro-
viding a future biographer with the necessary materials. Never-
theless, Sister M. Lilliana Owens, S. L., after evidently diligent
research, has succeeded in making him an understandable and a
memorable figure.
Born in Salerno on July 21, 1841, he entered the Jesuit novi-
tiate at the age of fourteen, and a few years later, in 1872, after
having completed his last year of training in the Jesuit Tertian
House at Fredericksburg, Maryland, he became the first resident
priest at Pueblo, Colorado. Three years later he was sent to
Trinidad, Colorado.
From the beginning he proved himself a zealous missionary
and a man of courage and vision. Where a lesser man might have
contemplated timorously the construction of a modest church,
Fr. Pinto thought in terms of churches, schools, and hospitals
and successfully executed plans which to another man might have
seemed visionary.
Significantly, the biography of Fr. Pinto, after his transfer to
El Paso in 1892, becomes more a history of the growth of Cathol-
icism in and around El Paso, for the two stories are inseparable,
and both stories form a chapter in the long history of the Society
of Jesus. How much of the history of Catholicism in the El Paso
area depends on the Jesuits may be discerned from the number
of churches here mentioned as having been entrusted to their
charge, from the fact that his superiors consistently entrusted to
Fr. Pinto the duties of vicar-general, and from the fact that when
El Paso became a separate diocese, a member of this order, Very
Reverend Anthony Schuler, S. J., was appointed bishop. The
Jesuits were ably assisted in their missionary labors by the Sisters
Texas State Historical Association. The Southwestern Historical Quarterly, Volume 56, July 1952 - April, 1953. Austin, Texas. The Portal to Texas History. http://texashistory.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metapth101145/. Accessed November 25, 2015.

We're still waiting for it to grace AT&T's pages, but it looks like the WinMo 6 Standard Pantech Duo C810 is now available in most AT&T retail stores for $249 with two-year contract. Phonescoop has the full spec rundown and video hands-on of AT&T's new quad-band GSM / HSDPA dual-sliding QWERTY. Besides that rough, chubby look the phone also sports more than a few operational oddities including a mysterious "turbo mode" and the fact that sliding the phone open and shut does not answer or hang-up your calls. Fat? Sure, but still trimmer than the Helio Ocean also manufactured by Pantech. Check the video review after the break.

This is a GREAT deal on one of the very best carriers out there. The bonus with this sale is there are the interchangeable covers for the Ergo, so you have aesthetic options.
Ergos also have excellent resale value so if you hate it (you won't) or only have one baby and want to recoup some of your cost, throw it on the swap board here or on Craigslist and you'll get almost all your money back.
You won't regret this carrier.
I sound like an infomercial.

Jarrow Formulas, Inulin FOS, 6.3 oz (180 g) Powder
By Jarrow Formulas63 Reviews
Expiration Date:?Sep 2017
Expiration Date
The length of time for the expiration date or "best used before" date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.
Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.
Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.
Shipping Weight:?0.59 lbs (0.27 kg)
Shipping Weight
The Shipping Weight includes the product, protective packaging material and the actual shipping box. In addition, the Shipping Weight may be adjusted for the Dimensional Weight (e.g. length, width & height) of a package. It is important to note that certain types of products (e.g. glass containers, liquids, fragile, refrigerated or ice packed) will often require protective packaging material. As such, these products will reflect a higher Shipping Weight compared to the unprotected product.

Product Overview
- Prebiotic Soluble Fiber
- FructoOligoSaccharides
- Enhances Calcium Absorption
- Promotes Probiotic Bacteria Growth
- With Beneo
- Vegan
- Dietary Supplement
- Suitable for Vegetarians/Vegans
Inulin and FructoOligoSaccharides (FOS) are soluble prebiotic fibers that promote gut and overall health through their fermentation by gut flora, to yield important metabolites, including lactic acid and the short chain fatty acids acetate, propionate and butyrate. These metabolites help to maintain proper pH in the gut, discourage the growth of unfriendly bacteria, reduce the absorption of toxic ammonia and positively affect bone health by increasing the bioavailability of dietary calcium. Moreover, acetate, propionate and butyrate promote the integrity of the intestinal cells lining the colon and promote healthy lipid metabolism.
Orafti Synergy1 delivers both long-chain and short-chain saccharides to the gut, optimizing the growth of beneficial bacteria.
Suggested Use
Usage: Mix 1 scoop into water, juice, protein drink mix, smoothie or other beverages. Take 1 to 2 times per day or as directed by your qualified healthcare professional.
Other Ingredients
No wheat, no gluten, no soybeans, no dairy, no egg, no fish/shellfish, no peanuts/tree nuts.
Keep out of the reach of children.

iHerb Customer Reviews
This is so sweet-tasting and has such a good texture that I can simply eat it from a spoon, or I can mix it in coffee, oatmeal, etc. You should try to take it at the same time that you eat something with calcium, and it will increase your absorption of calcium. It's also a pre-biotic (I've certainly noticed those effects) and a fiber. This particular formulation - Beneo Synergy 1 - has been tested on young teenage girls, and they found that the girls were less likely to put on excess weight, since this is filling and presumably led them to eat less during the day. But at the same time, it helps girls at that age to absorb calcium and build bone mass, so they're less likely to get osteoporosis years later. I recommend this for all ages.
At first I dind's dare to take this because I read some articles about it, that told you not to use it because it also helps the growth of klebsiella bacteria. So I went to my docter and he told me it was safe to take, because it helps the growth of the good bacteria. And they will keep the bad down. I also take pro and prebiotics and togeter it works very well to get my flora (in the gut) better. After using a lot of antibiotics, my flora was very bad. So now I use it till my flora is healthy again. And the taste is marvellous. I tastes like a cotton candy!!!

Despite his attempts to be neighborly, the appealing redhead seems to have a chip on her shoulder about him...and the presence of her longtime boyfriend doesn't help. Despite himself, Travis can't stop trying to ingratiate himself with his new neighbor, and his persistent efforts lead them both to the doorstep of a journey that neither could have foreseen.
Spanning the eventful years of young love, marriage, and family, The Choice ultimately confronts us with the most heart-wrenching question of all: how far would you go to keep the hope of love alive?
©2007 Nicholas Sparks; (P)2007 Hachette Audio
"A tender and moving love story...Sparks' latest does not disappoint." (Publishers Weekly)
"The Choice"
I enjoyed the book, but not my favorite Sparks book by far. He didn't bring me to know the characters like his other stories. I'll keep reading his work though, I like the region he writes about and the depth he usually reveals about his characters.

Amazing book! Great Author

Lee request for lab exam of evidence rejected
BATON ROUGE - The judge presiding over condemned serial killer Derrick Todd Lee's latest appeal has refused to have evidence presented at Lee's 2004 capital murder trial sent to a private lab for examination.
State District Judge Richard Anderson denied the defense motion Thursday after prosecutor Dana Cummings objected. The evidence dealt with the 2002 slaying of Charlotte Murray Pace. Cummings said the integrity of the chain of custody of the evidence must be maintained in the event the evidence is needed in a future proceeding.
Cummings argued that if Lee's attorneys want their experts to examine the evidence, it should be done at the East Baton Rouge Parish Clerk of Court's Office.
Anderson agreed and gave Lee's attorneys until Feb. 7 to do so.

The 2010 Pulitzer Prize for Drama winner, Next to Normal is a deeply moving rock musical and raw account of a family dealing with mental illness, tragedy and the realities of modern society.

Chad Ochocinco's run on Dancing with the Stars has come to an end.
The Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver and his pro partner / rumored love interest Cheryl Burke were eliminated on the penultimate week of Dancing with the Stars last night.
Erin Andrews and Maksim Chmerkovskiy joined them in the bottom two, but survived, as did Nicole Scherzinger and Derek Hough and Evan Lysacek and Anna Trebunskaya.
Ochocinco, the only remaining semifinalist with no dance training (making his performances this week, while the lowest-scored, all the more impressive) is still pleased.
"This was awesome," the NFL star said. "I enjoyed the journey. I got some great criticism. I met awesome people, including the beautiful Cheryl Burke. I already won."
Great attitude from a great competitor.
ADIOS, 85: Chad Ochocinco and Cheryl Burke finished a respectable fourth.

I agree with Arth.
The 2nd is too close and not from above it enough which makes it tougher. I would guess it's nearby - Arth and Interlaken aren't too far apart.
What's cool that I didn't have time to post earlier is that on the blog where I saw the recent photo of Interlaken, the writer mentioned they didn't need to set an alarm because they got woken up by cows wearing bells each morning. In the photos from my great-grandparents' trip, there are several of my G-GMa with cows wearing bells. It's kinda comforting that some things haven't changed a ton in 100 years.
Thanks for all the help!

My son has not pooped in his diaper for over a month. I know his routines and he usually has to go shortly after meals. He is fantastic on the potty. Still pees in diaper occassionally, but his nanny says he is dry ALL day with her. He wears pull ups and I put him in an overnight diaper still before bed. How and when should I do the true switch? He still can't totally undress himself to go, and my potty stool is too darn short for him to really go by himself. Any advice appreciated! He'll be 2 1/6! Where did the time go??
Should I get rid of the diapers??

My DD will be 2 on 1/26 and has been in big girl undies for over a month now with only 3-4 accidents total! Just take the plunge and if it doesn't work go back to the pull ups!

Thanks for the advice. I am scared... he's probably ready, but can your kiddo's pull their own pants up and down without help?
Does he tell you when he needs to go? or do you just take him when you know it's time? If he is telling you everytime then I would go for it.
My LO has been potty trained for the past 3 months and no she cant pull her pants up and down, almost but not yet. Weather or not he is telling you when he has to go I would just put him in undies and see how he does. He may have accidents but will learn quickly.

The city of McKinney is the seat of Collin county in northeastern Texas. Situated near the East Fork of Trinity River, the city is about 30 miles (50 kilometers) northeast of Dallas. Many residents commute to jobs in that city or in Plano. During the first decade of the 21st century McKinney grew faster than all but two U.S. cities of comparable size.

Rotating Meeting Locations.
Why not have a person designated to "scope out" locations for one shot a year in the following locations: South Jersey, Philadelphia, Wilmington, Harve de Grace, Baltimore, and York-Lancaster? In addition, we could have a spring and fall main dinner meeting where everyone would likely attend, while still offering the opportunity to convenient local photographic outings from which everyone could pick and chose.
Also, we need to take count of what size format our members shoot and whether they are b&w or color shooters. In this regard, it does not make sense for large format shooters to walk the streets of Baltimore with 35mm shooters.
For those who have not meet me, my screen name is "Flauvius" and my real name is Robert J. Triffin. I am in Drexel Hill, PA; a suburb of Philadelphia. Although I like to shoot 8x10 and 4x5, I occasionally shoot both b&w and color in 35mm.
Lastly, please do not forget that some of us will be away the first week in May at the APUG Toronto conference.

NEW YORK (AP) - Dick McGuire, a basketball Hall of Famer and longtime member of the New York Knicks organization, died Wednesday
of natural causes. He was 84.
The Knicks said McGuire died at Huntington Hospital in Long Island. McGuire still worked for the Knicks as a senior basketball consultant.
A Bronx native, McGuire was a five-time All-Star and led the Knicks to three straight NBA finals from 1951-53. He went on to serve the team as a coach, assistant coach and scout. His No. 15 was retired in 1992 and he was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Hall of Fame a year later.
McGuire is survived by his wife, Teri, four children and seven grandchildren. Funeral arrangements are pending.

Woman denies drug trafficking chargeApril 16,2014Woman denies
trafficking charges
A Brandon woman who told police she opened her home to a New York drug dealer to support her own addiction denied two felony charges in Rutland criminal court Monday.
Jamie L. Trinci, 28, pleaded innocent to counts of possessing crack cocaine and heroin trafficking. Judge Nancy Corsones set bail at $50,000 for Trinci, who was not listed on the states online inmate locator Tuesday night.
Trinci, who could face up to 35 years in jail if convicted of both offenses, was arrested in February after police executed a search warrant at her home at 43 Carver St.
In the home, Brandon Police say they seized 32 rocks of crack cocaine weighing a total of 12. 5 grams and 380 bags of heroin weighing a total of 12.12 grams.
During her arrest, Trinci allegedly told police that she had been hosting a drug dealer from Brooklyn, N.Y, at her home since she moved into the residence in November.
She said the dealer, who goes by the street name BL would package drugs at her home and give them to her to sell to people she knew.MORE IN This Just In

A new edition to A Guide to LaTeX begs the fundamental question: Has LaTeX changed so much since the appearance of the third edition in 1999 that a new release of this book is justified?
The simple answer to that question is 'Well,. . . .' In 1994, the LaTeX world was in upheaval with the issue of the new version LaTeX2ε, and the second edition of the Guide came out just then to act as the bridge between the old and new versions. By 1998, the initial teething problems had been worked out and corrected through semiannual releases, and the third edition could describe an established, working system. However, homage was still paid to the older 2.09 version since many users still employed its familiar syntax, although they were most likely to be using it in a LaTeX2ε environment. LaTeX has now reached a degree of stability that since 2000 the regular updates have been reduced to annual events, which often appear months after the nominal date, something that does not worry anyone. The old version 2.09 is obsolete and should no longer play any role in such a book. In this fourth edition, it is reduced to an appendix just to document its syntax and usage.
But if LaTeX itself has not changed substantially since 1999, many of its peripherals have. The rise of programs such as pdfTeX and dvipdfm for PDF output adds new possibilities, which are realized, not in LaTeX directly, but by means of more modern packages to extend the basic features. The distribution of TeX/LaTeX installations has changed, such that most users are given a complete, ready-to-run setup, with all the 'extras' that previously had to be obtained separately. Those extras include user-contributed packages, many of which are now considered indispensable. Today 'the LaTeX system' includes much more than the basic kernel by Leslie Lamport, encompassing the contributions of hundreds of other people. This edition reflects this increase in breadth.
The changes to the fourth edition are mainly those of emphasis.
Helmut Kopka and Patrick W. Daly
September 2003
LaTeX is the text-preparation system of choice for scientists and academics, and is especially useful for typesetting technical materials. This popular book shows you how to begin using LaTeX to create high-quality documents. The book also serves as a handy reference for all LaTeX users. In this completely revised edition, the authors cover the LaTeX2ε standard and offer more details, examples, exercises, tips, and tricks. They go beyond the core installation to describe the key contributed packages that have become essential to LaTeX processing.
Inside, you will find:
New to this edition:
As did the three best-selling editions that preceded it, Guide to LaTeX, Fourth Edition, will prove indispensable to anyone wishing to gain the benefits of LaTeX.
The accompanying CD-ROM is part of the TeX Live set distributed by TeX Users Groups, containing a full LaTeX installation for Windows, MacOSX, and Linux, as well as many extensions, including those discussed in the book.
I had others books with many details but without explanation of the concepts. The book guide to Latex give explnation with deep and examples to illustrate how latex think. Read morePublished on Dec 21 2012 by nasser smaili

Thank you, I have found this very helpful in setting up the gallery on my blog.
Thanks for the info on how to display the EXIF, you are right, there is no documentation existent anywhere!
As far as image.php, you need to put this in there for the image to display:
ID); ?>"><?php echo wp_get_attachment_image( $post->ID, 'medium' ); ?>
<?php if ( !empty($post->post_excerpt) ) the_excerpt(); // this is the "caption" ?>
Also you can use this to navigate with thumbnails for galleries:
<?php previous_image_link() ?> & <?php next_image_link() ?>
Here's an example on my website: http://bui4ever.com/blog/2008/07/16/national-geog…
Sorry, my code got crunched:
ID); ?>"><?php echo wp_get_attachment_image( $post->ID, 'medium' ); ?>
<?php if ( !empty($post->post_excerpt) ) the_excerpt(); // this is the "caption" ?>
Grrr, sorry:

<a href="<?php echo wp_get_attachment_url($post->ID); ?>"><?php echo wp_get_attachment_image( $post->ID, 'medium' ); ?>

<?php if ( !empty($post->post_excerpt) ) the_excerpt(); // this is the "caption" ?>
Dean and Michael, you're welcome.
Richard, cheers for the code. I'll try adding that in when I finally get around to setting up my photo blog. I'm still confused as to why image.php should require extra code though as saving single.php as image.php doesn't work, yet image.php is still clearly being used for the output template, the image just doesn't display.
However I think the reason documentation is thin on the ground is simply because it's still in its infancy and doesn't always work. But I could be wrong, maybe no one's got around to writing it yet?
Not sure why copying and pasting contents of single.php to image.php doesn't work, but I'm definitely glad they give you a template to allows for further customizations.
My problem right now is that for some reason when I upload images via the media button, it won't import all my EXIF data. I'm 100% sure that the EXIF data is intact because I've checked on all my images.
If you're comfortable looking at the seralized data in the table, then if you go into something like phpMyAdmin, open up the post meta table and look for one of the meta keys – _wp_attachment_metadata. This will then relate to one of the photos. In there is the exif data. You'll see the title that you'd need to use to call the data out eg. 'aperture' and then the value comes after it. Maybe your photos have differently named meta? I'm not 100% clued up on EXIF. I only learned what it was less than a year ago! 😉
Otherwise, if it appears like it's not extracting it, double check the photo has the EXIF in it, for example by uploading it to Flickr (if you have an account) or opening it up in a decent image program and checking in there. I use Irfanview and have the EXIF plugin installed, all of which is free. If the EXIF is still there then this could be one of the issues I seemed to read about where people were saying it seemed a bit flakey.
That was the first thing I did was check the database. It's not there. At the point where the photos are uploaded, camera, aperture, and shutter are cut from the EXIF. Copyright, date, and everything else works. I've used photos that I've uploaded to Flickr and they have EXIF data just fine. I'm not sure if maybe my upgrade to MU 2.6 had a corrupt file or not.
Very informative post Sarah!
It's a great feature as we can use WordPress as a standalone photo gallery.
ok, i plugged in the above code, and you can go look at my gallery if you like… i don't want to keep it that way for long tho. thnx!!
Hi Elaine. Just took a look at your gallery and the additional space is in there. If you change the first line of the EXIF code from
< ?php if (is_attachment()) : $imgmeta = wp_get_attachment_metadata( $id );
<?php if (is_attachment()) : $imgmeta = wp_get_attachment_metadata( $id );
It should be fine As I mentioned, it's an annoying side effect with the plugin that a space is inserted in the middle of the opening PHP tag, which prevents all the code from being parsed on the server. Trouble is the code tags are not great for outputting code as there's no colouring, line numbering or indentation. I've now added a comment about this to the bottom of my posts.
Anyway, hope that fixes your problem. Let me know if it doesn't
ok, chagrin, i removed the extra space in the php statement and now it works fine lol my bad, sorry for bothering you, and thanks
Great post it was a bit odd that they implemented the gallery yet didnt actually post how to use it.
i was wondering how easy would it be to hook this up with lighbox is any of the javascript scripts?
Cheers Lee. I think they've not documented yet because either they don't have time and no one else has got that far yet, or because there are still a few issues to iron out. I'm not 100% sure but I've not found any problems myself yet.
As for using lightbox, depends which point you want to use it on. I'm guessing the gallery where it displays all the photos? Maybe with a bit of JS trickery but I'd have to look at that and get back to you! On the individual pages it'd be easy by editing the template explained in theming your WP gallery.
OK, so now that I figured out my EXIF display issues…does anyone know how to display the shutter speed as a fraction rather than decimal?
Richard, you'll need to do a search for a php function to convert decimals to fractions. I did take a quick look myself for this but haven't gone further with it yet.
Thanks for this great post. I found it because I wanted to link back to the parent post but found a whole lot more. Still needs tweaking but it's close to what I want. Any improvements you recommend are welcome.
What a fantastic find! I applaud you, I'll be using this extensively on my photoBlog. Really indispensable stuff, thanks again.
You're welcome Grant. I look forward to seeing your photoBlog
I'm wondering how to modify the EXIF output so that blank items are not listed. For example, some images I use don't have the camera info while others do. How would I format the code so that only the info I have is shown?
BTW – I think there is a problem with some of the data output. I'm pretty sure my images weren't all taken on 31/12/1969 19:00. Anyone else notice this?
archshrk, to answer your first question. You can use the if (!empty()) PHP code (if not empty), so
if (!empty($imgmeta['image_meta']['aperture'])) echo "Aperture: f/" . $imgmeta['image_meta']['aperture']."\n";
This needs to go before each line and the value that's checked of course relates to the value that's being echoed.
With regards to your second question about the date, The date you're getting is behind time as far as the timestamp is concerned (as the timestamp is measured as the number of seconds since 1st January 1970), so my guess is your camera has not been set up with a time and it's just assigning 00/00/0000 as the date. Check your camera settings. If the date is set and correct then upload one of the photos that you're using, via FTP, to somewhere on your server and leave a link to it here then I can check the EXIF and tell you what it currently says.
it doesnt work to me :(((
i've verified the EXIF data is correctly stored in db.
if (is_attachment()) :
$imgmeta = wp_get_attachment_metadata( $id );
echo "
echo "Dimensions: " . $imgmeta['width']." x ".$meta['height']."
echo "Aperture: f/" . $imgmeta['image_meta']['aperture']."
echo "Camera: " . $imgmeta['image_meta']['camera']."
echo "Date Taken: " . date("d-m-Y H:i", $imgmeta['image_meta']['created_timestamp'])."
echo "Copyright: " . $imgmeta['image_meta']['copyright']."
echo "Focal Length: " . $imgmeta['image_meta']['focal_length']."mm
echo "ISO: " . $imgmeta['image_meta']['iso']."
echo "Shutter Speed: " . number_format($imgmeta['image_meta']['shutter_speed'],2)." seconds
echo "";
Looking at your page you've added the photo in to a post. The code above will only display the EXIF data when you view the image via the gallery, not when you insert an image into a post. For that to work you'd either have to know the specific ID of the image and use the get_posts() code in the final post of this series, or if there is only one photo per post uploaded, then in the final post of this series you can get the code to get the attachment data for the post ID.
Look under 'Retrieve a Photo' on Mixing Gallery and Blog Posts, but remove the 'orderby' parameter, as you would only be pulling out one photo. Then use the $attachment->ID in the code you've posted above (without the if is attachment statement) in the wp_get_attachment_metadata() function.
So you'd use get_posts() to get the attachment ID, then pass that to the wp_get_attachment_metadata() function to then get the meta data.
I hope that all makes sense.
ok Sarah, really thanks for your patience.
with the gallery method works perfectly, now i'm gonna study the other method you show me
thanks again, Alessio
Hi, Thanks for the tutorial. Would you know of a way that I can include "Star Ratings" for each picture. Assuming I use any of those ratings plugins.
Thank you Sarah! This was a big help once I realized I needed to turn on the visual editor. Off to go use this in my next post. Have a good one 😀
Thanks – I wanted to display the EXIF info like Matt and this was exactly the info I needed
But it looks like you're missing  from your code example.
Hannes – annoyingly the code plugin tends to remove some of the code at times. Line 13 is where it should have been in the last but one code block. I'll try editing the code and making it 'appear'.
Where exactly do you check to see that the EXIF data is being pulled and stored in the db? I'm obviously having some problems because mine are all coming up as 0's w/ a date taken as 1969. Yet if I download the full size version and view the file info in PhotoShop, the EXIF data is still intact to the file.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Shane – The EXIF should be in the post_meta table. Find out the post ID of the image from the posts table, and then find the corresponding record in the post_meta for that image. The data is serialised however it should be easy enough to read.
It sounds like it's not extracting it though. For the extraction to work, your server will need the exif extension added/activated so you may need to check in the phpinfo() to see if Exif is installed, and if not contact your host and see if they'll enable it for you.
Thank you Sarah for the reply!
Turns out that it is not extracting it. Would you happen to know of any plugin or whatnot that could get it to extract the data from already uploaded images?
I've already done a few posts with hundreds of pictures to post. I wish I had checked this before because I had planned on displaying all of this data.
Hi Shane, I've had a brief look around and I think the only way to do what you need would be to use a custom script that would loop through each photo and extract the EXIF for you. I can't see a plugin doing the job you need, however have a search around for online photo EXIF extraction and you may find a prewritten function to alter to suit the WordPress db.
There maybe some error in it.
Line 5:
echo "Dimensions: " . $imgmeta['width']." x ".$meta['height']."
maybe should like this:
echo "Dimensions: " . $imgmeta['width']." x ".$imgmeta['height']."
Thanks for spotting that. I've fixed it in the original too.
I am experiencing that WordPress actually removes my EXIF information when I use the media uploader within WP 2.7. Anyone else experiencing this?
Thank you for this tip!
i want to display the exif data which the image is inserted into the post. only one image in one post. i think this plugin cannot do that.
can someone help me how can i achieve this. i've searched around the net but so far none is working for me.

Server maintenance had the worst timing today.
It was 15 minutes before server shutdown.
I went into one last infected space normal run (that can usually be done in less).
And we did (failed the optional and losz a üüplayer, but whatever).
About 2 minutes after the final warning (5 minutes to shutdown) we blew up the tac cube.
5 secondd later the server shut down. Did't even get the chance to pick up the reward loot.
So close.

Thanks, they call for quinomet, or metoquinone, a compound of 1 mol hydroquinone and 2 mols metol. Haven't thoroughly searched yet, any availability now? A quick trawl showed metoquinone as being used in Acutol. It seems to offer a good activity:fog ratio but presumably there are good substitutes.

Discover why a good CCA reading does not always guarantee a good battery
Ever since Cadillac invented the starter motor in 1912, car mechanics explored ways to measure cold cranking amps. CCA measurements assure that the battery has sufficient power to crank the engine, especially when cold. A starter battery with low resistance promises reasonably good cranking ability, and a CCA reading of 400 to 500A is sufficient for most starter batteries. According to SAE J537, a CCA reading of 500A delivers 500A at -18C (0F) for 30 seconds without dropping below 7.2 volts. [BU-904 How to Measure Capacity].
Courtesy of BMW
A diversity of battery testers have emerged that measure the internal resistance of a starter battery, the gatekeeper that correlates with CCA. These devices are the trusted carbon pile, the pulse-load tester, the non-invasive AC conductance method and the modern electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS).
To test the CCA with a carbon pile, a fully charged starter battery is loaded with half the rated CCA for 15 seconds at a moderate temperature of 10º C (50º F) and higher. As example, a 500 CCA battery will discharge at 250A for 15s and the battery passes if the voltage stays above 9.6V. Colder temperatures will cause the voltage to drop further. The carbon pile simulates real-life load condition, detecting defects involving partially shorted cell (low specific gravity) that non-invasive methods might not catch.
Mechanics prefer small sizes and device manufactures have developed handheld testers that induce a momentary high-current pulse. Ohm's law calculates the internal resistance on hand of the induced voltage drop and provides a CCA-equivalent reading. The test results of this device are similar to those of the carbon pile. The battery should be fully charged and the loads methods can estimate capacity.
The AC conductance method reads CCA by injecting a single frequency of 80–90 Hertz to the battery. These non-invasive units are small, stay cool during the test and the battery does not need to be fully charged. As with the other test methods, AC conductance cannot read capacity.
Critical progress has been made in electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). EIS has been in use for many years in laboratories to analyze diverse materials. EIS has been combined with complex modeling to estimate CCA. This also allows capacity estimations. The resulting multi-model electrochemical impedance spectroscopy is called Spectro for short. Spectro™ is a Cadex trademark. (See BU-904: How to Measure Capacity)
Accuracy has always been a question mark and CCA is especially difficult to verify. CCA is affected by state-of-charge (SoC) and and other factors. Figure 1 compares CCA readings taken with AC conductance and Spectro™ at different SoC. Both readings decline with lower SoC and AC conductance is affected more than Spectro™. Since batteries hover at about 70 percent when the car is brought in for service, the CCA readings between the two methods appear similar.
Figure 1: CCA accuracy on state-of-charge
The Spectro CA-12 provides stable CCA readings between a SoC of 100–40% (red); the values on AC Conductance drop rapidly with SoC (blue).
Figure 2 illustrates CCA readings as a function of SoC and battery performance. The CCA of Battery A with a capacity of 100 percent stays steady down to a SoC of 10 percent; Battery B with 37 percent capacity starts to show instabilities at a SoC of about 40 percent, and Battery C with only 22 percent capacity provides uncertain results. This test demonstrates that a health battery provides clear and measurable symptoms where the indicators of a weak battery are muddled.
Figure 2: CCA accuracy in relation to battery condition and SoC
The battery condition governs accuracy. Battery A (100%) is accurate to 10% SoC; Battery B (37%) to 40% SoC. Battery C (22%) delivers unstable results. Test condition: Batteries are discharged at 20A. CCA is measured every 10 min with Spectro™
No single instrument can evaluate all battery anomalies and rapid testing only provides rough estimation. A micro-short in a cell, for example, can only be identified by applying a load after a rest period or checking the specific gravity of the electrolyte. Rapid-testing might pass the battery as good because a charge covers up the anomaly.
All test methods provide outliers and no clear accuracy specifications can be given. Certain defects are easier to detect than others, and as there is a high probability that it will not rain in the Mohave Desert today, forecasting rain in London is more complex. There are no ideal battery test methods and scientists see future in electrochemical impedance spectroscopy.

what is the cost of spectro CA-12 battery tester?
what is the cost of spectro CA-12 battery tester? I am possibly interested in the purchase of lead acid battery capacity meter
Cost of the CA-12 is in the 4 digits before the decimal point region. It isn't intended for hobbyists, but shops that service/sell batteries.
The flipside is that Cadex IS the #1 Battery Test/Charge platform for all chemistries for over 20 years, so there is no doubt that the CA-12 is a quality product.
A better method of explaining what capacity is, is to have a swimming pool and a kitchen sink filled with 12 inches of water each…lets assume an inch of water equates to 1 volt…after all, voltage is a pressure and with 12 inches of weater in a vessel, a certain fixed pressure is realized at the bottom of it.
You now have a 1" diameter hole at the bottom of the swimming pool and the kitchen sink.
It is easy to see how the voltage would drop after a minute of flow as the level in each vessel decreases.. The level in the swimming pool will hardly change, whereas the level in the kitch sink will be near empty.
Could someone please provide a better definition of CCA? In particular, what will the load be during the course of the test? There would seem to be three options, constant load resistance, constant current and constant potential. Using either of the first two would seem to make it effectively unmeasurable, at least with any degree of precision, as it would be necessary to predict the the performance of the battery before starting the test.
A test at constant voltage, on the other hand, should be quite easy to perform. Even with quite simple equipment - a rheostat moved by a motor, controlled by a circuit which monitors the battery voltage. With modern power semiconductors it should be possible to do the same job more quickly and with no moving parts. The significant result would then be the current flowing at the end of the test.
Am need purchased the 12 Volt x 2 batteries , But i want a imfirmation of cranking in nos.?
Am need purchased the 12 Volt x 2 batteries 32 AH & 74 Ah, But i want a imfirmation of cranking in nos.?
What is the difference in construction between a 650 CCA battery and a 950 CCA battery?
what is cca reading for 12v battery?
The reason is 12V battery CCA is = CCA of 12V battery,
so, when 12V battery=24Vbattery/2, then 12v battery*2=24V battery,
so CCA is CCA
Since batteries tend to fail in cold weather probably because less capacitance available as the available capacitance falls linearly with temp (flooded lead-acid) Why not put a battery in a progressively cold environment—programmable refrigerator and graph resistive discharge(15sec) carbon load or other at decreasing temps. Or test at 0C vs 50C.
Would seem this relatively simple stress test, although it would take time to change temp of battery would increase reliabilty of prediction of reserve CCA. ????
I am looking for modern testers (non-invasive) for testing NiCd flooded starting batteries. Manufacture - SAFT, Battrey type- SPH 250 &300;. Please advise which testers are available for NiCd starting batteries.
I have a bunch of 12v car batteries that are unlabelled (about 50) so I have no idea of the manufacturer OR the cca.
What device can I connect to the batteries to find out what the capacity of them is now without entering the original cca (as I have no idea what it would be)?
Capacity and CCA are not tightly related. A rather small battery (low capacity) can demonstrate exemplary CCA ratings while some really big honkers will turn in disappointing CCA numbers. I have a 75 pound, group 31 battery on my bench right now with a demonstrable capacity of over 120 ampere-hours . . . but it drops to 9V at 600A load. Conversely, I have some 18 pound batteries in the 18Ah class that will dump 500+ amps at 9V.
Clearly, the internal impedance of the batteries with a smaller CAPACITY is superior to the larger battery with 5x the capacity.
A detailed study of the condition of your batteries can be conducted by first topping them off with a quality charger-maintainer. Then load-test to 9V with a carbon pile LOAD tester. Top off again and the CAPACITY test with something like the West Mountain Radio CBA capacity meter (runs battery down and counts electrons)..
A comparison of the LOAD and CAPACITY numbers for the family of test article will gie you the best measure of their condition and potential performance.
how we would conclude the battery plate conversion quality during the process of curing followed by drying.,
If a battery is 650A, does that mean it is 650 AH? where as 120AH battery is quite big in size ( trucks have it under hood) . I dont' understand how come a small battery ( car battery )have a 600A label on it while it looks like 40AH car battery. Kindly provide a bit of example.
In india, we have car batteries ranging 30Ah-45Ah . Truck batteries ranging between 100Ah to 140Ah.
But as to why in USA and Canada, Cars batteries of same size have label of 600A on it?????
And bigger batteries for trucks have 1000A label on em'.
Any point clearing my confusion would highly be appreciated.
I think you mean full-fledged, not full-fletched. While this article appears to be informative, such incorrect language use degrades professionalism, and this site is named battery university.
@Barry, the 600A refers to the CCA (Cold Cranking Ampere) and not the Ah.
i was told I needed a new battery. They said the cold cranking amps rated 600 measures 279 c.c at my last check up at the car dealer. Is this true? Do I really need a new battery?
@Lisa 279CCA will not start up your car, what you can do is ti regenerate your battery outside that buy a new one.
Hi, I just had my car battery tested and they said my battery was low and needed to be replaced. I'm confused though because they guy said it read 325 out of 500, and I am not sure what these numbers are referring to? Everything I have found regarding car batteries are discussing voltage (should be at 12.6 for a good battery?) So confused. Thanks for your help.
325 you were told is the CCA (Cold Cranking Ampere), which means a battery's ability to start an engine in cold temperatures.
CCA (Cold Cranking Ampere), is the rating used to define a battery's ability to start an engine in cold temperatures.
Have a pair of 24AHr SLA Lear jet APU starter batteries (in parallel) for a Holden Apollo 2.2L 4cyl (Rebadged Toyota Camry Wagon), these are the high quality so called 'pure lead' Hawker (narrow red) batteries same as certified for avionics, they were initially used in a high end UPS at the local Curtin University library server room & reached their end of life in ~2006.
They've been used in my car since & still start fine, though they're a bit down on CCA from new ~600A ea, last time I checked their parallel CCA was ~950
In summer, when daytime temps exceed 35 C & up to 44 C, they sit in water in the engine bay in a plastic battery box - sometimes in town I'll to drop into a local coffee shop & get a couple of take-away cups of ice & flood that into the battery box. Minor corrosion on the stainless steel terminals isnt a problem as its easy to brush off. In winter when it gets down to approx 20C the box is dry & they're fine.
Batteries both date coded 1996

I just bought a brand new Interstate battery at Costco to replace the Costco battery that failed within the warranty period. It is a Group 78 battery with 800 CCA.. Just to be safe, I had it tested and the result was a fully charged battery at 12.69 volts. However, the CCA was only at 698, not 800. That means that the new battery is at 87% state of health. BTW, the outside temperature was in the mid 70s. Shouldn't this new battery test at 800?

Not surprised by the results in this poll as I am that anyone actually thought this was a real competition. STID was a decent flick, but nowhere near in the same league as TWOK.
