Dear David,
And that the original Scala-Process is still existing and run by several labs.
I've only written that because two members in the beginning of the thread (one from the U.S. and one from Canada) said that this process is long dead and not offered anymore. Which is simply wrong.
I've only given the forum members here the correct information about the status of Scala processing.
And furthermore I've written in my post about your lab, I quote:
"Well, I know, used them, too. And they also offer development of Scala 200X in their process. Therefore no problems for North Americans to get their Scala films reversal processed."
And I have also in some threads here on apug explained why BW reversal is so awesome and unique. And that those photographers who have never tried so far absolutely should try it now.
Therefore it is ridiculous to say I would try to steer business away from you. That is definitely not the case.
The OP is from Europe, even the European Union, not from North America. It is much easier and hassle free to send films in between the EU compared to sending films across the Atlantic.
Best regards,

subset: commoncrawl

What is the SPEP?
The Standardized Program Evaluation Protocol ("SPEP") is a validated, data driven rating scheme for determining how well an existing program matches the research evidence for the effectiveness of that particular type of intervention for reducing the recidivism of juvenile offenders. The SPEP scheme is based on a meta-analysis of over 500 studies conducted by Dr. Mark Lipsey and his colleagues over the last 20 years. These analyses have investigated the general program characteristics that are most strongly associated with reductions in the reoffense rates of the juveniles served.
The SPEP is the operationalization of this information. It allows both brand name programs (e.g., Functional Family Therapy, Aggression Replacement Training) and non-brand name generic programs or services (e.g., group therapy, social skills training) to be linked to a large body of experimental and quasi-experimental research on program effectiveness. Once linked, the SPEP can be used to compare the characteristics of specific programs as implemented to the main characteristics research shows to be associated with the effectiveness of such programs for reducing recidivism. Dr. Lipsey has found that the effects of juvenile delinquency intervention programs are mainly related to four key features: the primary service provided, the quantity of service, the quality of service delivery, and the risk level of the juveniles served. These four predictors of recidivism effects serve as the foundation of the SPEP.
Simply put, SPEP serves as a practical way for juvenile justice system and program providers to evaluate their programs for juvenile offenders in a standardized, evidence-based, and sustainable manner. The diagnostic information provided by that evaluation, in turn, can guide program improvement.
A Word from the Developer:
Dr. Mark W. Lipsey is the Director of the Peabody Research Institute at Vanderbilt University located in Nashville, TN and the developer of the SPEP. Below is a non-technical explanation of how Dr. Lipsey developed the SPEP and its key features. This is a "must see" for all interested persons.
Below is an interview with Mr. Benjamin Chambers from the Reclaiming Futures Organization in which Dr. Lipsey gives an overview of the SPEP.
Current News
PRI recently certified its first ever group of SPEP Trainers. This group with members from the EPIS Center at Penn State and multiple Juvenile Probation Offices have implemented the SPEP in several counties across the state. Throughout the process to implement the SPEP, they successfully completed both in-service trainings as well as in-field assignments. This certification allows them to provide training and oversight to SPEP Specialists as well as conduct all aspects of the SPEP scoring process independently. Well Done!

Cash for Kim
From drugs to contraband to U.N. aid-the many rackets of North Korea.
Feb 19, 2007, Vol. 12, No. 22 • By CLAUDIA ROSETT
In recent years, Kim's regime has been wallowing in profits on counterfeit cigarettes. A tobacco industry study in 2005 estimated the gross revenues from these sales to be $520 to $720 million per year. (Cigarette smuggling is highly profitable because a pack costs just pennies to produce; most of the retail price is excise taxes.) Though North Korean refugees find it almost impossible to reach the United States, North Korean contraband fares better. In testimony before a Senate panel last year, a State Department official dealing with drug enforcement, Peter Prahar, referred to federal indictments alleging that North Korea-sourced counterfeit cigarettes had been entering the United States at a rate of one 40-foot container per month
North Korea also sells missiles and missile technology, not always illicitly. Estimating the income from the traffic is, once again, extremely difficult. A number often cited is $560 million in sales for the year 2001 alone. A former Pentagon aide and author of a book on North Korea's negotiating strategy, Chuck Downs, explains that this was the amount North Korean officials presented to the Clinton administration around 2000 as the cost of giving up their missile traffic--so it is probably inflated. But in selling missiles and missile technology over the years to such places as Venezuela, Egypt, Libya, Pakistan, Syria, and Iran, North Korea has by some educated guesses earned $1 billion or more.
A number of seasoned observers of North Korea, including American Enterprise Institute scholar Nicholas Eberstadt, estimate that, in his commerce with the world, Kim faces a shortfall of about $1 billion per year, which he makes up with criminal activities of one kind or another. Over the past dozen years, China, South Korea, and even the United States have poured billions' worth of aid into North Korea. By many accounts, much of that has ended up supporting the government rather than feeding the hungry. And none of it has swayed the basic criminal bent of Kim's regime. Instead, we have the bizarre spectacle in which U.N. agencies purport to be dishing out food and instructing North Koreans in the rudiments of development, while down the road North Koreans as part of state policy are cranking out top-quality counterfeit U.S. banknotes and tooling missile and nuclear bomb components.
Clearly there is no dearth of entrepreneurial talent in North Korea. But under this regime, the name of the game is violence, fakery, and extortion. The fate of any promise offered by Kim Jong Il is perhaps best summed up by a look at his cash. The list above is necessarily approximate and incomplete, but the bottom line is clear.

While speaking overseas, "If President Obama thinks a religious test is shameful for refugees, then he has a lot to be ashamed of. His own administration has been discriminating at an amazingly fast clip over the past two months -- and against the population posing the smallest threat to American safety: Christians." .... "There are several ways to help the hurting that leave our nation less vulnerable to attack." As you read this, also consider a recent report from Sharyl Attkisson: Obama Still Doesn't Read Intelligence Reports on Jihadists He Doesn't Consider to be Terrorists. We also note that Mr. Obama (straddles the camps of both Alinsky and Muslims) and his White House staff are directly advised by our Muslim Brotherhood enemy operating INSIDE our White House, Department of State and the Pentagon. All this in addition to Satanists seek to ally with U.S. Muslims after Paris terror.

This is a serious discussion and it grows more important each day. The discussion is real and it goes well beyond two general officers. The "transformation" of America is on-going with Barack Hussein Obama involves you far more than some realize. In an interview with Trunews, Retired U.S. Air Force Lt. General Thomas McInerney and Retired U.S. Army General Paul Vallely spoke about the possibility of a Constitutional Crisis that may occur if Barack Obama refuses to protect the American people from the threat of ISIS and radical Islam. The Generals also said that it may come to the point where the U.S. Military may have to remove Obama from office. The Generals also stated that Obama has moved the US stance on Terrorism from one of fighting against it to one of providing it aid and comfort. The Muslim Brotherhood (Islamist enemy of America) under Obama is operating inside EVERYONE of our major government organizations including our ENTIRE Intelligence Community. This includes operating within and advising our elected "leaders" in our White House. Our senior military leadership has been neutralized by political correctness. Lets just say "We have big trouble in foggy-bottom." Make no mistake about it, the threat is Islam and the Muslims are "inside our gates."

Most of you are now becoming interested in saving our United States and either stopping or minimizing the next terrorist attack. You must understand that there will be one. We're dealing with Islamist zealots who have no regard whatsoever for human life. We may even see a coordinated "international terrorist attack day" by this enemy. This will add to the terror of it all and prove they have the ability to do so. To them we are all kaffers.
I'm making this as easy as I can for you to become part of a "jihadist dating service" as they all work to kill kaffers (that is you and your families) to reach for 72 virgins in their life hereafter. Please do we wait until after Paris comes to American cities, act now! Study Dr. Edwin Vieira's very precise historical and legal columns regarding the Second Amendment and the constitutional militia on a CD. You can download it here. If you have to listen to it as you sit in commute traffic, around town... just do it. Consider giving a copy to your county sheriff.
Since "Homeland security" is the most serious issue challenging Americans today it is vitally important to study the : Constitutional Homeland Security : The Nation in Arms. Do NOT overlook opportunity to learn the practical steps Americans must take to revitalize the constitutional Militia in each of the States. Also learn the True vs. False Militia and Why The Difference Matters. Please take the time to read (do it at lunch time or on the weekend when the weather is howling out there) these books by Dr. Vieira. This one is slightly over 100 pages: Thirteen Words. "

The Senate Bill 1203 passed the US Senate on November 10, 2015 and now goes to the House of Representatives for consideration. As I understand it, S.1203 of this bill requires the VA "ensure" veterans receiving medical services from the VA receive each vaccine on the adult schedule. "It is believed that those who refuse will, under this Bill, lose their medical benefits." It is also my opinion that this is going to end up being a very important issue for Veterans that already have issues with mandatory vaccinations and the resulting health issues that the VA tries NOT to cover.

We've been trying to inform you for the last few years, via this site as proof, what is coming to our American shores SOON.... if we don't stop it NOW! Lets just say for the record, the Obama administration and other "progressives" are NOT it. PLEASE SHARE THIS WHILE YOU STILL CAN! Although the coming attacks -- here in America -- will be spectacular. Few have been listening and our time is running out. Maybe this will get the broader citizen attention required. America is NEXT!! What I'm trying to share with you a stunning video that thus far has been purposely kept from your view. PLEASE NOTE: You will likely be upset, knowing what the American media has kept from your view. Add this to what is being shown regarding the attacks on Paris. Take a hard look at the map below, produced by the NYT on October 21, 2015, giving a visual to exactly how spread out the "refugees," (and how many terrorists?) all across America. Look closely because one of these states are most likely going to be the next "Paris."

I read all of the fabulous reviews before I rented this magnificent apartment. None of them did it justice! Judith is truly a wonderful, kind, considerate lovely person. It is so apparent that she has a good heart and really wants her guests to enjoy and love the experience of staying in the apartment. I stayed for 2 months! From the moment I walked in, she made me feel that it was my home. I loved it! It is he perfect apartment. The location could not be better. I could walk everywhere (and I did!!!) and everything was available in the neighborhood. The apartment is gorgeous and so comfortable. The bedrooms are comfortable and the mattresses are fabulous! I've never slept better! None of the reviews mentioned the plush plentiful towels or the wonderful window shades that really keep out the light! Also I must comment on the superb water pressure in both showers! What a pleasure! If you are lucky enough to rent this apartment it will only enhance your wonderful Jerusalem/Israel experience. It certainly did for me and I can't wait to come back!!! I'm sorry there are only 5 stars to give- Judith and the apartment deserve more!

Respond to Review of Sol y Luna
by Scrablero
Review: I found this restaurant by chance as I was wandering around Tunja looking for something to eat. I walked upstairs to find all the rooms completely jam-packed with locals. I told the staff I would return later, but they wedged me into a table with a local grandmother, who proved to be quite charming. When I jokingly said there were a lot of vegetarians in Tunja, she said, "No, just a few, but it's because the food is so delicious." There is no higher endorsement of a restaurant. And indeed the food was delicious, starting with soup, then a big plate of brown rice and several prepared veggies and salad. Papaya juice and a small dessert rounded it out, for 7,000 COP. BTW, the woman's plate was smaller; she said she was having a "medio" (medium), so that's available for light eaters. The set lunch was vegan, but I did see fried eggs going out on some plates, so it's not 100% vegan.

Mujeres Unidas Group
Crecencia is a very hard-working woman who has recently started keeping a pig and a few hens. Thanks to the efforts she is making, she is able to grow her business and acquire a larger number of animals.
Crecencia is requesting a loan from Fundación Paraguaya to invest in buying pigs to raise, slaughter and sell. She is grateful for the opportunity that she and her fellow group members are receiving as it will enable them to continue growing.
La señora Crecencia es una señora muy trabajadora que empezó apenas teniendo un cerdo y unas pocas gallinas, actualmente y gracias al esfuerzo que está haciendo pudo ir creciendo y tener mayor cantidad de animales.
El crédito solicitado a la Fundación Paraguaya lo quiere invertir en la compra de cerdos para poder criarlos y también para faenarlos y venderlos. Agradece por esta oportunidad que ella y sus compañeras están recibiendo ya que de esa forma podrán seguir creciendo.
Additional Information
About Fundación ParaguayaFundación Paraguaya is a financially self-sustaining social enterprise that promotes entrepreneurship in urban and rural areas through microfinance, education programs, and more. Its focus on agriculture has helped many farmers boost their crop yields. And a number of other borrowers have taken out loans to start and grow social businesses that have helped deliver eyeglasses, medicines and other helpful services in their local communities.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Product Description
Now considered a classic statement on sex and sexuality from a Christian perspective, Lewis B. Smedes's Sex for Christians offers a frank yet compassionate discussion that is refreshingly open-minded and strongly biblical. The book is divided into three major sections. The first, "Sex and Christian People," overviews human sexuality - -its created goodness, its sinful distortions, and its redeemed potential - what we are as human sexual beings. Part Two, "Sex and Single People," and Part Three, "Sex and Married People," are about sexual behavior in each succeeding stage of life - the things we do as sexual beings.
With the addition of an extensive epilogue, Smedes brings his text into clear focus with today's pressing issues - AIDS, cohabitation, homosexuality, and the need to develop Christian strategies regarding sex. And with the hindsight of two decades since Sex for Christians first came out, Smedes presents an even stronger statement of his two sources of authority: the Bible's moral standards regarding sex, and the authority of reality as we discern it.

Trustworthy reviews are our priority. Businesses can't pay to change or remove reviews.
Our wedding photographs are beautiful! We could not ask for a better experience with a wedding vendor. My husband and I live out of town and Karla was so easy and fun to work with, she really worked hard to capture our big day.
This vendor was worth every penny. Banks is a higher end photographer but we were willing to spend more money on the pictures. Karla and Dave are a husband and wife team that shoot weddings together. We had a little bit a trouble scheduling a time for our engagement pictures which is the reason behind my score for their flexibility. Nevertheless, the engagement pictures turned out fantastic. Karla and Dave shot our wedding together and they had great ideas for location shoots. I love their artistic eye and I can not wait to see the final wedding pics. This was another favorite wedding vendor and I would highly recommend them to any couple looking for a photographer.
The quality of the photography is amazing! They captured our day perfectly. I researched many photographers and their style and finished presentation is better than anything I've seen. I cry each time I look at the photos they are so beautiful! My husband and I are absolutely thrilled with their work.
My photos were beautiful. Thanks so much!!
Karla and David were excellent, the photographs were incredible. I couldn't have picked a better photographer, and they were so nice!
Our photographer was Carrie Hay, the Banks' assistant. She was WONDERFUL. We had a photographer already booked and they had a conflict about a month before the wedding. My mother and I spent days frantically calling every photographer we could find. Carrie was available and she was spectacular. We had a lot of fun while she was taking the photos and they turned out spectacularly. They were everything I ever wanted.
They are a husband wife duo who were amazing to work with. They made to feel comfortable and helped us really enjoy our day.
I would highly recommend Banks Photography. Both my girl friend and I used them for our weddings (she was married a year before me). My husband and I had unique circumstances and we were supposed to be marrried August 27 and we booked Karla and her husband (the owners). I was very very excited after seeing their books. However, we found out on June 30 that we would have to move the wedding up to July 30. My husband is in the Marine Corps...this is one of the many joys!! Since we had to move the day Karla and her husband were already doing another wedding. Therefore we ended up with one of the assistants. Now, we had already worked EVERYTHING out with Karla, such as the pictures we wanted taken and how we wanted them taken. We got an old Rolls Royce special for some of these photos. Well, since we had the assistant I don't think she took it as seriously as she would have had she worked with us from the beginning. Therefore, we got NONE of the pictures with the Rolls as we had wanted. The pictures are still beautiful, but there were some others I would have wanted and never got. The same assistant did my girlfriend's wedding and she got all the pictures I would have wanted! :) But, she worked with the same person from the beginning and we had to change. I would highly recommend them, you get the negatives. Just make sure you stick with the same person from beginning to end!! :)

Failing to reach a conclusion in its efforts to roll back the national audience ownership cap for TV networks which was expanded this summer by the FCC, Congress is likely to take up the matter before the Christmas recess.
A compromise effort to lower the cap to 39 percent appeared likely to gain Congressional support. However, the initiative was part of an $820 billion omnibus spending bill that failed to pass prior to the Congressional Thanksgiving break. The spending bill, as well as the media cap, will be taken up this month in a special session.
In June, the FCC set off a firestorm of debate when it voted 3-2 along party lines to increase the percentage of national viewers a broadcast network is allowed to reach from 35 percent to 45 percent. Opposition to the change from the public and various interest groups was swift and vehement.
After much Congressional wrangling, a compromise effort setting the national cap at 39 percent emerged. The 39 percent cap compromise appears to accommodate station acquisitions by Fox and Viacom that pushed them beyond the existing 35 percent national audience cap.
Another important aspect of the compromise is changing the Congressionally mandated FCC review of media ownership from every two years to every four years.
With emotions running deep on both sides and the prospect of an Administration veto it remains unclear whether the Congressional effort to roll back the FCC's new ownership rules will succeed before Christmas.

Additional Information
Though the basic concept for the telescope had come about prior to 1608, this is the year the first patent for this tool was applied for. Beginning a revolution in astronomic and military practices, becoming a common tool aboard naval and private ships, the classic nautical telescope has been faithfully reproduced on these solid brass key rings. The first telescopes used concave eyepieces along with an objective lens, made from quartz crystal, which produced a magnified but blurred image. In 1611 Johannes Kepler invented his own telescope using a convex eyepiece that drastically improved on the focusing power, yet inverted the image. As quality and design improved the telescope, like the ones on these brass keychains, it became a much more useful device. By 1668 reflective lenses were being used by Isaac Newton, and in 1733 the achromatic refracting lens was created. Using two lenses, one concave and one convex placed back to back, the achromatic lens pushed telescope design ever farther. Up until this point creating telescopes was a large ordeal, though by the late18th century, using the most modern technology, it became possible to manufacture them on a larger scale. Replicated on these brass keychains is an early modern telescope, with a design that became common among sea farers, naval and pirate alike. The original nautical telescopes were crafted from leather and wood, often with brass fittings, and as quality metal production increased later came to be produced in solid brass. The telescope on this brass key ring is something that these 18th century sailors would have used to spot approaching ships, enemy targets, and obstacles in the high seas. Each of these brass keychains depicts a significant part of history; a tool that literally and figuratively changed the way we see the world.

First Drive: 2014 Fiat 500L
If you've noticed an uptick in the number of diminutive runabouts populating the roads, you are not alone. The subcompact city car is ganing popularity, from Mini to Smart and now Fiat. But while these brands make their bones on the small car core, profit is earned through expansion and when you deal with city cars, the only way to expand is upward. Hence Mini's recent explosion of newer, larger models. Fiat is taking a page out of this growth playbook with the all-new Fiat 500L- a multi purpouse vehicle that may share little with the standard 500, but is the perfect key to the Italian automaker's American invasion.
My, How You've Grown:
First thing you need to know, the four-door 500L actually does not share any major components with the standard 500. It is actually a re-skinned version of Fiat Europe's Panda. You can quickly tell that the 500 and 500L are different animals. the 500L is 20 percent longer, 11 percent taller and has a kindov-obvious 121 percent more cargo space. The purpose of the 500L is to offer Fiat owners who may have started a family an opportunity to stay within the brand while going upmarket. The European underpinnings allow the 500L to have a small footprint while maximizing space in a way that almost seems unimaginable in a car this size.
Cabin space is the 500L's defining feature. There is plenty of head and shoulder room for this writer's 6'3″ frame. It was never cramped, even in the rear seat. The latter is a rarity even in larger cars. The trunk area, while not cavernous has enough space for several bags. Moving of large items can be accomplished by flipping down some seats.
A Posh Lounge:
The 500L is offered in Pop ($19,100), Easy ($20,195), Trekking ($22,195) and Lounge ($24,195) trims. All models come standard with Fiat's 1.4-liter MultiAir turbocharged inline-4. It makes 160 horsepower and 184 pound feet of torque Power is sent to the front wheels through a 6-speed twin-clutch driect shift gearbox. This engine never wheezed when getting up to speed, and is the ideal powerplant for the job. Fiat's next engine down would have had its hands full with the 3,000-pound 500L.
Speaking of that weight, the 500L reveals the product of its porportions in turns, where the well tuned suspension has to kneel in before settling down. Taking an off ramp produces body roll but is an overall composed machine. For city driving, the 500L will pull off the same dart-about-traffic maneuvers as its little sibling.

text: birth certificate Spotlight on Cincinnati court for same-sex marriage By Ann Thompson • Aug 6, 2014 Provided A federal appeals court in Cincinnati is scheduled to hear arguments Wednesday on the constitutionality of same-sex marriage bans in six separate cases involving four states. The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals will consider challenges to state same-sex marriage bans in Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee and Michigan. So many reporters and court observers are expected the court will have two overflow rooms with live audio streaming of the oral arguments. Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine is appealing two local cases:

Rarely do we find mirrors with as finely carved frames as this. Both rails and stiles are carved in a repeating pattern nicely stopped at each end. The four corner pieces were carved separately with four petal flowers over circles.
The frame is joined at the corners by half-lap joints then the four corner pieces were applied, suggesting the entire piece was made by an accomplished carver rather then a cabinetmaker.
The choice of cherry as the primary wood, with a natural finish, gives the piece great color. The surface looks original but the glass has been replaced.
At 15" x 17 1/2" this mirror is a great size for a small bathroom or over a dresser or commode in a period bedroom. The size, color and carving gives it an "Arts and Crafts" look. We would date this piece from the late 19th century to the early 20th century.

Arturia announces KeyLab 88
The KeyLab 88 is a professional-grade 88-note MIDI keyboard controller designed with the working musician in mind. Featuring a new hammer-action keybed from Fatar and deep integration with our award winning Analog Lab software, the KeyLab 88 is unique with its robust, solid metal construction and classic wooden side panels.
More info: http://www.arturia.com/products/hybri…
KeyLab 88, the largest in the KeyLab series, comes with Arturia's Analog Lab, a software synthesizer solution with over 6,000 presets derived from Arturia's range of Analog Classics. These include the TAE (True Analog Emulation) synthesis-powered Mini V (Minimoog monosynth emulation), Wurlitzer V (virtually bringing back to life the well-known 'Wurly' electric piano), among others.
The first 3,000 units shipped come with two virtual instruments: Grand Piano Model D from fellow French developer UVI, and Pianoteq 5 Stage, a physical modelling-based virtual instrument that provides acoustic and electric piano recreations as well as chromatic instruments.
The keyboard also acts as a controller which is compatible with any third-party software or hardware. Customizable MIDI assignments are accessible via the LED screen or the included MIDI Control Center software.
KeyLab 88 also sports a music stand, and a rubberized, attachable shelf extension to create a work surface for holding a laptop, tablet, or another small synth.
Arturia Audio Fuse – NAMM 2015
With a pair of trademarked DiscretePRO mic preamps, high-quality 24-bit AD/DA conversion, sample rates up to 192kHz and accurate clocking, the AudioFuse is an intriguing proposition.
When it comes to connectivity, the AudioFuse is well equipped and has been designed with musicians in mind. As such, it has two pairs of speaker outs, a pair of headphone outputs, each with 1/4-inch and 3.5mm sockets, and USB ports for connecting or powering other devices. On top of that, there's ADAT connectivity, MIDI, phono, S/PDIF, Word Clock, XLR/ balanced 1/4-inch combo connections.
The AudioFuse could easily form the centre of a small studio, providing a talkback function for communicating with recording talent, and insert points for adding line-level devices (EQ and compression for instance) between the preamps and the converters. Direct monitoring is also possible as well, to avoid the timing issues associated with recording latency.
Arturia's new audio interface is also road-ready with a sturdy aluminium chassis, and an accompanying box to protect it from knocks during transport and also to stop undesirables from messing with your settings! It is set to retail for around $549 and should become available in the Summer.

BeatStep Pro — new flagship controller from Arturia
Arturia has introduced the BeatStep Pro — a flagship controller and dynamic performance step sequencer that they call 'a sequencing powerhouse'.
BeatStep Pro has been designed from the ground up to provide a hands-on hardware sequencing experience. It offers 16 touch-sensitive knobs, for entering of pitch, gate, velocity amounts, and timing shifts per step.
It includes two independent (colour-coded) monophonic step sequencers, each with dedicated displays to show the current playback position and bank length of the currently selected sequence. SEQUENCER 1 and SEQUENCER 2 have been greatly expanded with up to 64 steps per sequence, 16 sequences per project, and 16 projects, making BeatStep Pro one of the more powerful step sequencers ever made. each sequencer has its own 1V/Oct CV (Control Voltage) and (10V) GATE outputs to connect to suitably-equipped analogue synthesizers, together with a separate VELO (Velocity) output to allow for even more possibilities when working with a modular synth system setup.
An additional DRUM sequencer allows for 16 separate tracks of sequencing. Record in quantised realtime via the 16 pressure sensitive pads or use the 16 step buttons for a classic drum machine workflow. when working in SEQ1 and SEQ2 mode, the pads can control pitch transposition as well as accessing various musical scales — such as Chromatic, Major, Minor, Dorian, Mixolydian, Harm Minor, Blues, and also a User setting — while the DRUM sequencer itself also has eight DRUM GATES at its disposal (to send gate outputs from the corresponding pads for triggering external devices).
BeatStep Pro is also a controller. Switching from PROJECT to CONTROL MODE means users can trigger clips in their favourite DAW (Digital Audio Workstation), play drum sounds from an external module, or adjust parameters in their favourite plug-in. Possibilities are (almost) endless, limited only by (lack of) imagination.
Beatstep Pro also offers performance effects, including a realtime ROLLER/LOOPER touch strip; PROBABILITY, RANDOMNESS, and SWING settings.
- 2 monophonic step sequencers
- Up to 64 steps per sequence
- Note, velocity and gate time settings per step
- Note tie
- 16-track drum sequencer (one track per pad)
- MIDI controller mode
- Fully customizable for knobs, step buttons and velocity and pressure sensitive pads
- Send MIDI CC, note data, program changes
- 16 Projects, each with 16×2 sequences, 16 drum sequences and a controller map.
- Performance controls
- Randomizer with Amount and Probability settings
- Real-time looper/roller touch strip
- Independent swing amount per sequence
- Touch sensitive knobs
- Tap Tempo
- Connectivity
- CV/GATE outputs (1 volt per octave CV, 10 volt gates)
- 8 drum gate outputs
- Clock sync with multiple standards

Moog Minitaur & Arturia Beatstep
All sounds are from the Moog Minitaur, the repeating sequence is a single track of the Minitaur through an analog delay, and it's sounds are altered manually in real time. The bass, drones and fx were overdubbed. An Eventide Space pedal and an old version of Lexicon's Pantheon plugin were used for the reverb.

Monomachine. The patch used was DN_PULSEECHO_KB on the iSEM. The signal
was fed through the Eventide Space.
The new beginning
Headphones highly recomended
An afternoon improvisation.
Gear used: Waldorf Blofeld and MicroQ, Arturia Microbrute through Eventide H9, Elektron Machinedrum, Akai mpc500 as main sequencer, Korg Ms2000, Clavia Nord Modular G2 and DSI Tetr4. Hardwire DL7 and RV8 were used on the Tetra.
DSI Pro 2 – Arturia MicroBrute – Eventide H9 : Performance Setup
A compact, computer-less performance setup that can create a wide variety of new (and old) sounds. The Dave Smith Instruments Pro 2 is the heart of the setup. In addition to its great sound engine, it provides the master MIDI clock to the H9 and sends tempo-synced LFOs, step sequences and more to the MicroBrute via one or more of its four assignable CV outputs.
The MicroBrute is in the cat bird seat here, but also shown is how that position can also be nicely filled by other analog, CV controllable synths. We also take a Moog Voyager for a spin.

I was about to protest—conservators can move Roman frescoes, why not Manhattan drywall?—but then I realized that maybe she meant that the closure would never happen. And for a long time, longer than thousands of half-employed musicians could have ever guessed, it seemed to be true.

Book Title: The Intellectual Rebel
Synergy is created by composite particle guides in complex matter. Composite particle guides are responsible for the synergic phenomenon of the mind in human beings. Particle guides are the aspects of particles that govern their behavior and characteristics.
The mind of man is the aspects of composite particle guides in the brains of human beings that are responsible for consciousness. The mind is a phenomenon that is described by the philosophy of characteristicism. Characteristicism is my philosophy that describes the nature of reality. Characteristicism states that existence consists of the imaginary characteristics of empty space or nothingness. In other words, the mind consists of certain imaginary characteristics of empty space. Entities are real only within the imaginary world of existence. Therefore, matter, energy, and the mind are real only within the imaginary world of existence.
Electronic synergy is a nonclassical phenomenon; therefore it cannot be created using only classical engineering. I describe classical engineering as nonsynergical engineering. Synergical engineering is based on the science of synergics. Synergics is the science of the future, and, when it is fully developed, it will be a boon to mankind.

European migration, once the driving force of U.S. immigration, has steadily declined over the last 50 years. In 2014, 4.8 million European immigrants accounted for 11 percent of the total foreign-born population, down from 75 percent in 1960. Discover key statistics on this population in this Spotlight article, including countries of origin, language proficiency, employment, and more.
The United States is the largest refugee resettlement country in the world, with 69,933 newly arrived refugees granted protection in 2015. Responding to the global humanitarian crisis, the Obama administration has proposed increasing the number of refugees the United States accepts annually to 100,000 in 2017. This article delves into the most recent refugee and asylum data in the United States, including top countries of origin, states of settlement, and more.
The annual inflow of new lawful permanent residents (LPRs), also known as green-card holders, has ebbed and flowed with changes in U.S. immigration policy and processing backlogs. This data Spotlight delves into legal immigration in the United States, covering class of admission, country of origin, destination states, and more.
The Central American immigrant population in the United States has grown dramatically since 1980 to reach 3.2 million or 7 percent of the country's total foreign-born population. Central Americans were significantly less educated, but more likely to be employed than all immigrants and U.S. born. From income to health coverage and more, this Spotlight explores key indicators of the Central American immigrant population.
In 2013, more than 25 million people in the United States reported limited English proficiency (LEP), an 80 percent increase since 1990. The LEP population, the majority of which is immigrant, is generally less educated and more likely to live in poverty than the English-proficient population. This Spotlight explores key indicators of the LEP population, both U.S. and foreign born, including geographic distribution, language diversity, and employment.
In 2012, the United States granted humanitarian protection to more than 87,000 people, with grants of asylum up 19 percent and refugee admissions up 3 percent from a year earlier. This article provides a detailed look at the most recent refugee and asylum data in the United States, including country of origin, top states of settlement, and more.
More than 1 million people became lawful permanent residents (LPRs) of the United States in 2012, with family-sponsored immigrants accounting for two-thirds of those gaining a green card. This Spotlight examines federal statistics on foreign nationals who gained LPR status during 2012.

After reading the latest review http://www.dpreview.com/articles/2436252004/bsi-boss-sony-alpha-7r-ii-added-to-studio-scene some of the commentators there pointed out that the Canon 6D is excellent low light (high ISO) even when compared against the other (much) more expensive FF cameras. It's very puzzling how on Earth the reviewers gave silver to this excellent camera? I am Sony fanboy but the comparision tool has shown me that the Canon 6D high-ISO images are better than the Sony's. Surprising and very informative: there must be a catch or an error. Maybe Canon ISO's are faked just like Fujifilm's?
JPEG Tone Curves / dynamic range
Our Dynamic Range measurement system involves shooting a calibrated Stouffer Step Wedge (13 stops total range) which is backlit using a daylight balanced lamp (98 CRI). A single shot of this produces a gray scale wedge from the camera's clipped white point down to black (example below). Each step of the scale is equivalent to 1/3 EV (a third of a stop), we select one step as 'middle gray' (defined as 50% luminance) and measure outwards to define the dynamic range. Hence there are 'two sides' to our results, the amount of shadow range (below middle gray) and the amount of highlight range (above middle gray).
To most people highlight range is the first thing they think about when talking about dynamic range, that is the amount of highlight detail above middle gray the camera can capture before it clips to white. Shadow range is more complicated; in our test the line on the graph stops as soon as the luminance value drops below our defined 'black point' (about 2% luminance) or the signal-to-noise ratio drops below a predefined value (where shadow detail would be swamped by noise), whichever comes first.
Note: this page features our new interactive dynamic range comparison widget. The wedges below the graph are created by our measurement system from the values read from the step wedge, the red lines indicate approximate shadow and highlight range (the dotted line indicating middle gray).
Cameras Compared
The EOS 6D's tone curve is very similar to that of the EOS 5D Mark III (which isn't any great surprise) but also very similar to that of the Sony SLT-A99. The Nikon D600, by comparison, has a much straighter tone curve above middle grey, giving a fraction less contrast in the brighter tones and a slightly less of a smooth transition to the very bright highlights.
The 6D, in common with Canons DSLRs going back several years, has two features that can help respond to high dynamic range scenes. The first is Auto Lighting Optimizer, a JPEG-only feature that will brighten the shadow regions of an image if it thinks it's necessary (usually in response to significantly backlit scenes). This isn't triggered by our dynamic range test scene, so makes no difference here. The other option is Highlight Tone priority, which will be explained in more depth further down this page.
Color Modes
The Canon has two different tone curves associated with its different Picture Style color modes. The majority use a standard tone curve, with just 'Faithful' and 'Neutral' taking a lower-contrast approach to the highlights - much in the way we saw the Nikon perform in the first comparison on this page.
Highlight Tone Priority
The Highlight Tone Priority option offers a method for capturing more information in the brightest parts of the scene. It does this by applying less amplification to the signal coming from the sensor, then compensating for it by using a different tone curve to ensure the correct brightness in the final image.
Because it works by using a lower-than-usual signal amplification, HTP cannot be employed at base ISO - the minimum value that can be used is ISO 200. When used at ISO 200, the effect is the same as underexposing an ISO 100 shot by one stop, then pulling up the midtones and shadows to compensate. The result is an image at a 'normal' exposure but that retains the extra highlights you've captured. This approach - common to many other manufacturers - comes at the potential cost of increased noise in shadow regions.
The EOS 6D's lowest standard ISO is 100 but it can offer ISO 50 as an extended mode. Essentially this is doing the opposite of Highlight Tone priority mode - it's increasing the exposure by a stop, then using a different tone curve to pull the image brightness down to compensate. However, whereas HTP mode attempts to protect the image from highlight clipping, switching to ISO 50 makes it far more likely.
Because it's all-but impossible to recover over-exposed highlights, we'd recommend not using the camera's ISO 50 unless you have a specific reason - in everyday shooting you'd generally be better off using a neutral density filter if you need the longer shutter speeds. That's not to say that it's useless though; if you're shooting under controlled lighting and can be confident of retaining highlights, it should give the best quality.

California is grappling with a $42-billion budget deficit. That's more than the GDP of 112 countries. Maryland, Virginia, New York and other states likewise face billion-dollar budget shortfalls.
Congress and the White House want a $1-trillion "stimulus" for the banking, auto and steel industries, roads, bridges and ports, and "worthy" projects like water parks, parking garages and fitness centers.
They also support expanded renewable energy programs that will require tens of billions in subsidies and tax breaks – but provide intermittent electricity and deliver only 5-15% of their "rated capacity" during peak summer demand periods.
Many states have oil, gas, coal uranium and other energy and mineral resources, within their borders or off their coasts. Development would produce critically needed energy, reduce oil and gas imports, create millions of jobs, and generate trillions of dollars in lease bonus, rent, royalty and tax revenues, to help pay these bills.
California could nearly double its offshore oil production within 12-18 months, without installing a single new platform, by using directional drilling technology to bore more wells from existing platforms.
But environmentalists vigorously oppose development. Many states increasingly restrict exploration and production. The US Senate is considering bills that would place more energy prospects off limits. Many legislators want a permanent lock on billions of barrels of oil beneath Alaska's North Slope and America's Outer Continental Shelf – despite support for drilling by two-thirds of voters.
Onshore, the usual justification is speculative or exaggerated impacts on wildlife, habitats and groundwater from drilling and production. Offshore, the most common rationale is the infamous oil blowout that occurred forty years ago this month, off Santa Barbara.
That spill is the only one in over 45,000 US offshore wells where significant amounts of oil reached our coasts. And it never would have happened, if it weren't for the incompetence of a few federal regulators and oil company officials.

Great Harvest is the money behind the re opening of this mine. Go read the News on their website, you might have to go back a few years. They already pumped in several million and the deal was as much as 50 million as required once they have the DFS done which was supposed to be done in early 2011 so not really sure what is happening at this point.

Turkey got some nice clover, and laid the bits of honeycomb in it.
And they gave Him a piece of a broiled fish and of a honeycomb.
The ground was rotten with the honeycomb of caves and cracks.
Johnny started to take an apple out of his pack, then changed his mind and took a piece of honeycomb.
Favose: with large deep holes, like the cells of a honeycomb.

There was a honeycomb for Samson in the carcass of the monster.
Drip-drip of precious water from some stab of brush through the honeycomb of cells there.
"Seems he don't intend us ter get that honeycomb, Rube," he said calmly.

Heidi Klum is more than a world famous fashion personality—she's also a mother of four. Which, for her next project, is the best experience she could have.
This September, Klum is launching a baby collection, "Truly Scrumptious by Heidi Klum," in nationwide Babies 'R' Us locations and online. The line will include an extensive selection of nursery essentials, toys and infant/toddler apparel. Although the model is working with a large design team, the ideas all start with her.
"I do a lot of the legwork. I do draw things. They basically fulfill my ideas," she told WWD. "The original design idea comes from me. I've tried to come up with really cute magical things, like dinosaur footprints."
When the products hit stores, Heidi says that she plans on making several appearances—especially in New York, Florida and California—to promote them. We're looking forward to seeing what she's come up with and what is sure to be one of the cutest ad campaigns ever—do you think she'll cast her own adorable children as models?
