The SeaLife Photo/Video LED Light is that better than the SL961 Digital Pro Flash? or is there advantages the flash has that the Led light doesnt?
Hello Dennis, if you are doing more video and still pictures, then you are going to order the strobe. If all you are doing is video then you are going to want the video light. With the video light every time you take a still pic it will turn off the light. If you have any other questions please feel free to give us a call at 1.800.347.2822.
Thanks for your two previous answers. I just have a couple more to ask. 1. I noticed that the DC1400 with external flash attachment does not show an internal flash. Is that a cap over the flash while the external is mounted? 2. With the external video light attached, does the internal flash work to take good pictures. I want to use the camera above water more than I do diving. I only get to dive the good waters once a year and I get to visit my grandkids many times during the year. I want to be able to shoot good still pictures and video then as well as below water when I dive. Most of the pictures below water will be still shots. Which would be my best choice at this time, knowing that I may add the other light next year. (Flash this year, video light next year or vise versa)
Hello Curt, yes with the flash link adaptor installed on the camera it will cover the internal flash. So that when the internal flash go off it sends it to the flash so the strobe know when you are taking a picture and makes the strobe go off. As for attaching the video light when you take a still picture it send a signal to turn the video light off. If you would like to place an order or have any other questions please feel free to give us a call at 1.800.347.2822.
You said that when taking a still picture the light turns off. Is this before or after you take the picture?
Neither is better than the other, but rather are used for different functions. Use the Digital Pro Flash for still photography and the LED Video Light if you are mostly shooting video. Neither are necessary to use the camera, but both will improve your photography or video quality when used.
Can the video light be used effectively for still pictures too? And, if so, what are distance limitations?
Hello Felix, the video light does not make a good still picture strobe. If you are looking to take stills you need the digital strobe. With the video light taking stills the video light is designed to turn off when you take a still picture. So you do not get a lot of back scatter in your shot.
Can one use the video light to take still pictures? What I mean is it has a cancallation feature so it will not dim for stills. If one covered up the flash from the camera would it provide sufficient light for stills? I find using the built in flash inadequate because of backscatter. I was hoping to be able to just have one external light for less bulkiness. Still I do more stills than video so would it be better to have both flash and video light? Planning to upgrade my old sea life camera/flash set (DC 600).
Hello Tim, the video light is designed to turn off when you take a still picture. So if you take more stills then video I would suggest going with the digital pro flash. Or if you do both still and video then I would suggest going with the Sealife DC1400 14 Megapixel Underwater Camera Pro Duo Kit with L.E.D. Video Light and Digital Pro Flash web link: http://www.scuba.com/scuba-gear-535/168210/Sealife-DC1400-14-Megapixel-Underwater-Camera-Pro-Duo-Kit-with-L.E.D.-Video-Light-and-Digital-Pro-Flash.html.
Does the waterproof camera housing come in other colors other than Black? If so what colors and does scuba.com carry them?
So if I understand this correctly, the video light turns off for still pictures and it then just uses the built in flash?? But can you use the video mode without the video light? I am assuming not so if you wanted to do both one would need both flashes is that correct? Also being unfamiliar with videos, how much memory (card space) does say a 1 minute stream of video take up? How much video could one take on say an 8 gig card?
The video light has a cut-out sensor that dims the light when it senses a strobe or flash firing so as to not wash our your photos. You CAN shoot video without any light at all if conditions allow or you so choose. This camera is designed to function perfectly without either light if the user so chooses. On an average setting a user can expect approximately 45 minutes of video per GB of space on their memory card.

Congress' delay holding up USPS
Anyone at the Treasury Department waiting for a $5.6 billion check in the mail from the U.S. Postal Service last week was disappointed. The USPS defaulted on the payment, the second time this year it has done so on a major payment due to the Treasury, for a total of $11.1 billion.
In fairness, the USPS legitimately could have marked the Treasury's demand for payment: "Return to Congress."
Last year postal officials notified Congress that it would not be able to make a payment to the Treasury by the due date of Sept. 30, 2011. Congress pushed back the due date to Aug. 31 of this year as it worked on legislation to resolve some of the systemic financial problems afflicting the USPS. Congress missed its own deadline, failing to adopt any reform legislation. The USPS then missed the 2011 payment in August and, a month later, the 2012 payment.
Those missed payments are the largest components of $15 billion deficit the service reported at the end of the federal fiscal year, Sept. 30.
Now, the USPS has a $1.5 billion workers compensation insurance payment due to the Labor Department, which it says it will make. Doing so, however, will leave the service with a $100 million cash shortage, which it hopes to make up over the impending holiday season.
The post office faces obvious business problems because of the conversion of so much correspondence and bill-paying to online systems.
But its most pressing problem is the result of a 2006 law requiring the USPS to pre-pay retiree health benefits 75 years into the future. That is meant to preclude deficits down the road but no other federally related enterprise faces such a mandate, and the USPS clearly can't meet it.
The Senate passed a bill in April that would mitigate those payments and return to the USPS, for operations, about $11 billion that it has overpaid into a pension fund. The bill would not, however, allow the USPS to carry out all of its planned closings of distribution centers, nor would it allow the service to end Saturday delivery to save cash.
That bill is imperfect yet helpful. The House has failed to act on its version. It should do so immediately after the elections to enable the USPS to tighten its operations and end unrealistic and unfair up-front obligations that threaten its ability to provide services.

Selena Gomez has fired her parents. As managers not as parents. Selena has said she now feels that at age 21, she is famous enough and old enough to have a professional manager. We think its cause they never liked that she dated (is dating?) Justin Bieber.
Sofia Vergara has bought a house for $10.6 million dollars! Oh its got seven bedrooms, eleven bathrooms, a movie theater, a bar, a pool, a spa, and plenty of space for guests to come and visit. Quick! Become super good friends with Sofia Vergara!
Since we're talking about millions of dollars, Real Housewives of New Jersey stars Joe and Teresa Giudice owe about $13.4 million dollars in taxes. They have pleaded guilty to 9 felonies, saying that they defrauded banks, the IRS, and bankruptcy court of millions. Quick! Stop being friends with the Giudices!
There isn't much to say about this one. Tom Hardy posed shirtless for Esquire this month. Oh he also talked about acting and former drug use in the article, but we're just checking out the pictures. #letsbehonest
Naya Rivera and Big Sean have called off their engagement. And just like when it happens to your friends, we don't have any good explanation just yet. Hopefully, just like when it happens on Glee, Naya will sing about it.

not a good source, i know, but still excited for his decision.
Not feeling good about it
Do we even want him with Royce? We need another PG for that class now IMO.

Yea, but it's not a crippling non-commit from everything people have said. Would be real nice to have him on board though.
Let's take both IMO. Royce is here a year or two tops. Jared is a 4 year guy.
I don't know if Uthoff is a can't miss kind of recruit but IMO he is a can't miss for Fred. Fred's lacking in experience but his strength is suppose to be getting the local kids to sign at ISU. If he misses right away, that would not be a good start
I have a hard time believing McCaffrey will beat out Fred on this one, espec. with the family Cyclone connection.
It seems weird that he would be committing this quick when he was so non-committal such a short time ago. Did he just visit anywhere recently.

i was wondering the same thing.
did ISU back off recently?
Hope that as long as we still want him that we land him.
He's gonna be a damn good player. I think we get him.
Nobody is a must get.

Don't agree. I am not saying Uthoff is a must get. But there are must gets. Sure the program goes on. But a certain recruit is a must get if you want the program to go where most what it to go

HB would have bought McD a lot more years, played for one and been wasted here. It was disappointing, but things happen for a reason.
I am fairly confident that if he dosen't come here we could land a better player from somewhere else. I understand how fired up some people get about in-state kids though.

You don't realise how much your voice contributes to your personality and the way people see – or rather, hear you – until you lose it.
And losing your voice is not like losing the car keys. You can't have a hunt around for it and find with some relief that you locked it in the garage or threw it carelessly into the dustbin with a piece of old kitchen roll and the potato peelings.
You can search all you like, but you won't find it. It will return when its good and ready.
Mine has returned but in a different form. It's quiet and too weak to sing, too weak to laugh properly, too fragile to do anything other than talk in a carefully modulated way. Any sudden reckless noise provokes paroxysms of coughing.
I all but lost it for a couple of days.


text: Wow, some great (and interesting) selections here! If I ever draw another elk tag I will likely use my old Husqvarna 640, it's built on an FN commercial action and chambered in 9,3x62. It will wear a Leupold in the lower end of the magnification spectrum probably a 1.5-5 or 2-7.

|Event Center nears completion
|Written by Darci Tomky
Phillips County Event Center is close to completion, reported Phillips County commissioners at their meeting Friday, Oct. 30.
Saturday, Nov. 14 is the first day events are scheduled for the new facility with the Extension's small ruminant program during the day and Pheasants Forever annual banquet that evening.
Three hundred stackable chairs and their carriers were ordered from Smith Hardware in Haxtun, and 40 5-foot round tables and 30 8-foot rectangular tables were ordered from Computers Etc. in Holyoke.
Commissioners noted they also purchased a big, power floor scrubber for $6,500 for the Event Center.
Most recently, construction crews have been hauling gravel around and started working on carpet/flooring.
They are still waiting on a Colorado Department of Transportation grant for some of the exterior parts of the building, so that might not get finished until spring. Commissioners continue to research what rental fees, deposits and policies will be put in place at the Event Center.
A walk through with the fire marshal will take place Monday, Nov. 9 to see if people can occupy the building.
Snow removal policies discussed
Commissioners explained Phillips County will be affected by the Colorado Department of Transportation's snow removal policies for winter as discussed at the Eastern Transportation Planning meeting in Akron Oct. 19.
Their policy will be to limit snow removal to a maximum of 14 hours (5 a.m.-7 p.m.) on all state highways having an average daily traffic count of 1,000 or less. In Phillips County, this includes all of Colorado 59, Colorado 23 and U.S. 385 from Holyoke north to the county line.
These measures are implemented to save money.
U.S. 6 and U.S. 385 from the south county line to Holyoke are on the priority plowing schedule.
The snow removal policy can be varied if the highway is closed or will close if coverage is not maintained on days when school buses are operational for school or extracurricular activities. In an emergency, residents can contact the Phillips County Communications Center for assistance.
Other business
In other business in the month of October, commissioners:
—noted road districts switched to working five eight-hour days each week instead of the four 10-hour days they worked during the summer weeks.
—noted Garold Roberts, new road district employee, started Monday, Nov. 2.
—purchased a 2009 GMC Sierra crew cab pickup for $28,665 for district two.
—worked with Star 92.3 on harvest snack sacks to deliver to the harvest crews.
—approved Ronny Farmer from Lamar for next year's audit at a max price of $17,040.
—noted two new boilers were installed at the Courthouse. A few things need finished up, but the boilers are working and commissioners are pleased to have heat again in the Courthouse.
—noted Northeastern Colorado Association of Local Governments (NECALG) approved Enterprise Zone 2010 tax credits for the Phillips County Event Center, Phillips County Economic Development, East Phillips County Hospital District and the Haxtun preschool.
—replaced windows and are working on a new door at the weed district building.
—approved Justin Grant as a new ambulance driver for East Phillips County Hospital District.

Which Actor Should Play the Last Jedi?
Ever since the announcement that George Lucas had sold Lucasfilm Ltd. to Disney and that the studio was making plans for a new Star Wars movie, the internet has been flooded with so many rumors masquerading as news that it's become nearly impossible to know which of them, if any, are true. The general consensus among the more reputable of news sources is that Star Wars: Episode VII will see the return of the majority of the characters from the original trilogy, including Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia Organa and Han Solo, with Luke's efforts to rebuild the Jedi a primary focus of the plot.
Skywalker himself, Mark Hamill, revealed shortly after the announcement that he had been told by Lucas that a new trilogy was in the works a year before the sale, and he later expressed interested in being involved with it — Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher are also interested in reprising the roles of Solo and Organa, respectively — but it's hard to imagine a 60-something Jedi kicking off a new trilogy (of course, Yoda was closing in on a millenium and that didn't stop him). If Hamill is not going to be headlining the franchise, then who will? Assuming Disney doesn't pull a Clu — Jeff Bridges was digitally rejuvenated to play a younger version of himself in Tron: Legacy — a younger actor will need to be brought in take up the mantle of the last Jedi. Who do you think has what it takes to play Luke Skywalker?

Best Spots to Swim in Sonoma
By Ian White on May 16, 2012 1:00 PM
When the foggy wind is whipping through San Francisco streets, it's easy to forget that summer really does exist less than an hour away. In fact, the 5-day forecast for Napa and Sonoma currently predicts an average high of 79 degrees F. Few things are better on a hot summer day in the wine country than sipping a chilled glass of Sauvignon Blanc or Rosé at a winery. But relaxing at a naturally beautiful swimming hole, a river, or a sandy beach in Sonoma is definitely in the running. Here are a few favorite places to take a dip in the Sonoma Wine Country.

[Verse 1: Bliss]
Yo I know a place that you lot can play
It's a party that you can hear like two blocks away
Fuck an attitude and fuck the right to apparel to wear
Fuck driving I rolled up on a barrel of beer
And busting through the door to Bliss N Eso blessing the speakers
It's so packed in here that I'm stepping on sneakers
But this MC corners me, he's got my patience spent
Cause he's wack but thinks he's the shit like David Brent
Gave me his demo to Sus, He wouldn't let go of my nuts
I was like "Dude I'll be right back just need a bevo to clutch"
Yo weapo what's up
I got the urge to write a sentence
Izm rocked up with 3 Virgin flight attendents
When his beer runs out there'll be some trouble and some bugging
So open the fridge and stash a couple in the oven
I'm a sneaky little cunty but believe me
It was funny when I found two mingers gettin' freaky in the dunny
("Wait thats not A girl, what's up bro")
[Verse 2: Motley]
It's me Motley
Didn't I tell you fuckers to watch me
Bliss you know I'm pissed man you should've stopped me (*hiccup*)
Now I'm drunk and this fat chicks got me
Hand-cuffed to the taps and now she's filling the bath
I'm from the UK so she love the way that I rap
But the bitch got sideburns worse than Shaft
Shits not funny man please don't laugh
That's when Eso bust down the door
Ay yo get your ass up off my bathroom floor
You've only had a couple of drinks we got more
It's beer o'clock bro I told you before
Now hit this weed
But I don't smoke
Ahh what the hell man just one toke
Nah take two hits but watch you don't
(Motley: w-w-watch y-y-ou don't choke)
[Hook: Bliss]
Well there's a party at my place and you're all invited
A place to just chill, get ill and spend the night in
You like that? "Hell yeah!"
Well get amongst the buzz and crack a night cap bro, this one's on us
Well there's a party at my place and you're all invited
A place to just chill, get ill and spend the night in
You like that? "Hell yeah!"
We'll get amongst the buzz and crack a night cap bro, this one's on us
[Verse 3: Eso]
Ay yo it's freak fest two double o' five
It's quiet in the hood but there's trouble at mine
Brothers that are broke, we don't know how to be rich
There's stolen steaks on the barbie on my balcony bitch
I'm teaching newcomers how to shape and make a bong
While Bliss hides my beer so we can take em' later on
Plus the colour of my c'mons like the Canberra Raiders
It got me crackin' jokes with Izm playin' San Andreas
We got the whole block shacking outrageous
Cause a party ain't a party without waking your neighbours
Or makin' arrangements to go break in a basement
And steal another motherfucking case for these cavemen
Kicking flows freestyling on some ill shit
If you ain't down with us then you not on the bill kid
So piss off cause this cost nothing for my brothers
Just a house party full of nuttty motherfuckers
So bounce, break something, shake the house down
Get on a stage and then make the crowd shout
Bounce, break something, shake the house down
Get on a stage and then make the crowd shout
Party people in the place I'd like to get to know ya
Party people in the place I'd like to get to know ya
First push up your hands if you're a weed smoker
[Verse 4: Motley]
Look I'm so busy Esy Izm got busy on the ones and twisy two's
Now I'm drinkin' Victoria Bitter out of my shoes
That's when Bliss told me the bad news
The door bust open there was two cops to see
They turned the music off and said "Who'se got the weed?"
And everyone went quiet
But then they told us the point
"Calm down love, just roll a coppa a joint"
[Verse 5: Eso]
It goes on and on and on 'til the break of break of dawn
Everybody gettin' loose, everybody gettin' on
And it's all good
That's the moto so grab a bevo n let go until tomorrow
Party people the place I'd like To get to know ya
Girls shaking their tootsies
With a bim bam boogie and a bottle of whisky...
[Outro: Eso]
Cause its my house, my crib, my kingdom
Where the floorboards creek and the kids keep singing
Hell Yeah!
The 11th track from Bliss n Eso's second studio album 'Day of the Dog' released in 2006.

CF Volleyball
Patriots volleyball takes down St. Johns River
Published: Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 11:30 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 11:30 p.m.
The College of Central Florida volleyball team made things look easy on Thursday night.
The Patriots (13-6, 3-0) needed a little over an hour to take down St. Johns River State 25-14, 25-14, 25-10.
Brittney Brown (16 kills), Jasmyn Perry (15 kills, six digs), Cristina Llorens (seven kills, seven digs), Marina Adami (34 assists) and Jorddalys Santos (17 digs) led the way for CF, which returns to action on Friday at the Tyler (Tex.) Tournament.
The Patriots will face off against Tyler on Friday at 5 p.m. On Saturday, CF will have a pair of matches at 11 a.m. and 3 p.m.
In winning for the fourth straight time, CF built double-digits leads in each of the three sets against the Vikings (12-14, 0-3) on their way to extending their all-time unbeaten streak against Mid-Florida Conference opponents.
Brown dominated the first set and set the tone for the Patriots.
The sophomore smashed nine kills and has six kills during an 11-2 run, which closed out the opener.
In all, Brown totaled nine kills in the opening set and made life miserable for the overmatched Vikings.
From there, CF saw Perry dominate the second set.
The freshman from Tampa had six kills and finished with four kills during an 11-3 run that pushed the Patriots to a two-set lead.
CF didn't let up over the third set and used Adami's ace during a four-point run to start things off.
The Patriots quickly got up to a 12-2 and went on to up their record to 5-0 all-time against St. Johns River.
CF's next home match will take place on October 24 against Lake Sumter State at 7 p.m.

Andy Murray is back in Roehampton after his disappointing and self-described "unprofessional" attempt at a medal in Beijing.
The Brit baller is preparing and training for the year's final major, the US Open, where Andy is a top threat to take the championship after his stirring win in Cincinnati.
Let's hope the Olympic Omen's effects don't follow the mop top to New York.

Say cheese! First ever images of exoplanets.
Astronomers using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope have taken the first visible-light snapshot of a planet orbiting another star. Estimated to be no more than three times Jupiter's mass, the planet, called Fomalhaut b, orbits the bright southern star Fomalhaut, located 25 light-years away in the constellation Piscis Australis, or the "Southern Fish." An immense debris disc about 21.5 billion miles across surrounds the star. Fomalhaut b is orbiting 1.8 billion miles inside the disc's sharp inner edge, and is 1 billion times fainter than the star.
In a separate development, Canadian scientists have used ground-based telescopes in Hawaii and Chile to take infrared images of three giant planets they believe are orbiting a star about 130 light-years away in the Pegasus constellation.
These are not the first examples of exoplanets — planets orbiting stars outside our own solar system — but Formalhaut b is the first that can actually be observed in visible light wavelengths. All others have been detected indirectly, for example through the wobble their gravitational pull induces on their star.
To find out more about the new discovery, and see more images and videos, visit the Hubble Site. There is more information on exoplanets in general on physicsworld.com and in the Plus article Brave young worlds.

Who is to blame for the credit crunch?
According to media reports there are two suspects in the dock: the rocket scientists' (a.k.a. the financial mathematicians) who provided the information behind the market's decisions, or the greedy bankers who only thought about quick profits and their end-of-year bonuses. In our latest podcast, we talk to David Hand, Chris Rogers and John Coates to find out who is guilty.
This podcast accompanies the article Is maths to blame?

What does zero and infinity mean to you?
Zero, and infinity — more than just numbers, these two mathematical concepts have worried and inspired mathematicians for centuries. But they have also inspired philosophers and artists. What is zero? What is infinity? What do they look like: A black hole or a blank page? A spiral or the horizon? Mathematician Marcus du Sautoy, historian of mathematics Eleanor Robson, Science Museum curator Jane Wess and artist Paul Prudence will be discussing Zero to Infinity at the Dana Centre in London. You can hear their perspectives, take part in the discussion, and have a drink at the bar on Thursday 20 November at 7pm.
For further information visit the Dana Centre website. And while you're waiting, you can read more about infinity on Plus.
We'll see you there!

Mathematical moments — Yutaka Taniyama
Born on the 12th of November 1927 in Kisai, Japan
Taniyama's name is associated with one of the most famous problems in mathematics: Fermat's last theorem. The theorem says that for any whole number n strictly greater than 2, there are no three non-zero whole numbers x, y and z such that xn + yn = zn. Almost 400 years ago Fermat scribbled in the margin of a book that he had a proof for this assertion, which didn't fit in the margin. It wasn't until the 1990s that the theorem was finally proved by Andrew Wiles — and the proof definitely couldn't have been written in any margin!
Andrew Wiles didn't actually prove Fermat's last theorem, but a conjecture which now carries Taniyama's name. In 1955 Taniyama, who was working in algebraic number theory, posed a problem concerning so-called elliptic curves — these are curves defined by points in the plane whose co-ordinates satisfy a particular type of equation. Goro Shimura and André Weil mused over the question and formulated a conjecture: that every elliptic curve should come with a modular form, a mathematical object that is symmetrical in an infinite number of ways. This is now known as the Taniyama-Shimura-Weil conjecture.
The link to Fermat's last theorem was made around 30 years later, when the mathematician Ken Ribet realised that if Fermat's last theorem were false, then this would mean that a particular elliptic curve comes without a modular form. In other words, if Fermat's last theorem were false, then the Taniyama-Shimura-Weil conjecture would be false also. Reformulating this yet again, if the Taniyama-Shimura-Weil conjecture is true, then so is Fermat's last theorem. What Andrew Wiles proved is that the Taniyama-Shimura-Weil conjecture is indeed true for a class of examples that is sufficient to prove Fermat's last theorem. QED.
In 1958, just days after his 31st birthday and not long before he was meant to get married, Taniyama committed suicide. His explanation was this: "Until yesterday I had no definite intention of killing myself. ... I don't quite understand it myself, but it is not the result of a particular incident, nor of a specific matter."
To find out more about Fermat's last theorem and its proof, read the Plus articles Fermat's last theorem and Andrew Wiles and How maths can make you rich and famous.

Why are some people generous and others selfish? There's no doubt that both strategies pay off under certain circumstances, but research (as well as everyday experience) shows that we are not mere opportunists — some people simply are nicer than others. This raises a question which intrigues evolutionary psychologists: is there a selective force that works in favour of a wide range of personalities, preventing us from all evolving the same optimal character trait? A possible answer has recently been published by mathematicians from the universities of Bristol and Exeter.

There are three new singing stars on the block, but you're unlikely to hear them on Radio 1. The musical talents of HD49933, HD181420 and HD181906, three nearby stars which are hotter and larger than our Sun, were discovered by a group of scientists, led by Eric Michel, using data from the CoRoT space-based telescope. Michel and his colleagues accurately measured accoustic vibrations in these stars that not only make for eerie listening, but also could reveal important information about how all stars evolve.

What is also important is the price point. As such the new RE's are overpriced. After all it is a 500 cc engine with limited performance abilities. The quality of construction is also always a question. CMW and this forum has done an outstanding job, but the fact is, if you are stranded in a town, not every mechanic is going to be willing or able to put their hands on an RE.
I personally don't think that "cheap bike" is a good reputation for a company to have.The sooner they can dump the "cheap bike" designation, the better.

text: By LaDonna SwedbergSports Writer Wallace took on the Medicine Valley Raiders for their last game before break. The Wildcats knew that it would be a tough game and the Raiders proved why there should be concern as they shot very well and challenged Wallace in every area of the game. The entire game was close as the lead went back and forth many times. John Marquardt led it off for the Wildcats with a quick bucket followed by buckets by Taylor Doell, Lane Scott, and Josh Grauerholz to give the Wildcats the early 8-5 lead. Tough defense by both teams kept the scoring low. At the end of the first quarter the score was all tied up 14-14. In the second quarter, Shane Anders and Jose Arviso came into the game playing some tough defense and even scored a few points for the Wildcats. The Wildcats went into the locker room with a four point lead but it didn't last long. Two successful free throws by Landon Swedberg early in the third held the lead for the Wildcats for just a minute as the Raiders came out hot and tied the game within the first few minutes on the third quarter. The battle continued as lead changes went back and forth throughout the third and fourth quarter. At the end of the game, good free throw shooting by the Raiders helped them go on a 9-2 run to end the game putting them on top 51-44. All scoring for the Wildcats was led by Marquardt with 14, followed by Swedberg and Doell with eight. Grauerholz and Scott both added six points and Arviso topped it off with two of his own.

Choosing the Right Garage Door for Your New House
The purpose and function of overhead garage doors have changed over time. Now, not only do they open, close and lock keeping your cars and other items in the garage safe and out of site, but they also contribute to the overall style and curb appeal of your home giving it a stylish look. Furthermore, they play a roll in energy efficiency keeping the cold and heat out of your home. Safety is another important task for your garage door offering security and protection for your cars and other items stored in the garage. Garage doors are available in a vast array of sizes, styles, colors and architectural themes ensuring you'll find the right one to complement your new house. If you are building a new home, put some thought into the type of overhead doors you'd like to install. Below is a list of things to consider before purchasing your garage door:
- Does the garage door have a high durability rating?
- Is it available in a color that blends nicely with the façade of your house?
- Does the garage door complement the architectural style of your home and its exterior decorative elements like the front door, window shutters, etc.?
- What energy efficiency features does it have including insulation?
- Are there any special safety features included? Does the overhead garage door have a safety rating?
- Is the garage door available with customizable options such as your choice of hardware or glass allowing you to have your own unique appearance?
Also, take some time to check with garage door manufactures. Some offer a design tool by which you can upload a photo of your home and experiment or "try on" all the different garage door options including color and style, making it easy to select the right overhead garage door for your new house.


text: Thought I'd post a of couple of pics of my hunting buddy and myself with the mule deer bucks we harvested about two weeks ago. Like everyone says, lots of other hunters and ATVers all over the place. By hiking in you can usually get away from the crowds. One thing we did notice this year was the deer numbers appeared to be down. In some of the drainages we have hunted in the past the numbers were significantly down. We were told Wyoming had a nasty snowfall the second week of May, perhaps this weather event took its toll.

The woman whose smiling face became the symbol of the troubled healthcare.gov website spoke exclusively with ABC news, saying she has been bullied as a result of the Internet fury over her removal from the site.
She also told ABC News that she was never compensated for the use of her image.
Nicknamed "Glitch Girl," the woman, who asked to be identified only as Adriana, stirred curiosity among media who scrambled to try to identify her after the site, which went live on Oct. 1, was immediately slowed by technical problems and visitors found themselves endlessly staring at her on their frozen computer screens.
Frustrated users unleashed their ire on the mystery woman, venting on Twitter and other social media.
EXTRA: Obamacare 'Glitch Girl' disappears amid Internet speculation
"The #obamacare girl got the worst photo shoot gig since Joey did the STD poster on Friends," tweeted @RONCOULTER, referring to the sitcom character's shock when he discovered that his modeling picture had been used in a campaign about venereal disease.
The government has replaced Adriana with four chunky icons that represent ways to sign up for the new mandatory health insurance. Creative critics have suggested other stand-ins, including the ghoulish Freddy Krueger character from the film series "A Nightmare on Elm Street" or Norwegian artist Edvard Munch's "The Scream."

text: Two of us will have a combined 3 points going into the draw this year. We would have liked to hunt 63 again, but the points aren't in our favor - especially if they cut back tags this year. With that reality, I've been looking at Unit 48. I spoke to the bio, and he seemed to think that quality would be much the same as last year and on par with 63. Anyone out there hunted this unit? If so, what did you think? It appears that access is a bit more tricky but still doable. Thanks!

Hi all,
Just wanted to let everyone know that I ran into the csfe_svc_error issue immediately following an upgrade to 8.0.4 today. The announcement below fixed the issue:
Since the linked post was directed at 8.0.2 users and there was no single bug filed against the issue, I wasn't sure where to post this occurrence so I thought I'd start by posting right here.
This was on a CentOS6_64 VM, Zimbra 8.0.4. YMMV of course.

Cylindrical Subwoofer
Application ID: 1373
In this model, the acoustic field inside and outside a down-firing subwoofer is computed.
This model is set up in 2D axisymmetry using the Pressure Acoustics application mode. The modeled physical domain is a hemisphere with a radius of 1 m. To minimize the effect of non-physical reflections at the exterior boundary of this domain, an absorbing Perfectly Matched Layer (PML) is added.
The computed results include the near and far-field sound pressure levels as functions of the polar angle.

No longer. In The Little Black Book of Innovation, long-time innovation expert Scott D. Anthony draws on stories from his research and field work with companies like Procter & Gamble to demystify innovation. In his trademark conversational and lively style, Anthony presents a simple definition of innovation, breaks down the essential differences between types of innovation, and illuminates innovation's vital role in organizational success and personal growth.
This unique hybrid of professional memoir and business guidebook also provides a powerful 28-day program for mastering innovation's key steps:
Finding insight
Generating ideas
Building businesses
Strengthening innovation prowess in your workforce and organization
With its wealth of illustrative case studies and vignettes from a range of companies around the globe, this engaging and potent playbook is a must-read for anyone seeking to turn themselves or their companies into true innovation powerhouses.

I have some companies on ZCS 8.x which are using shared calendars in WEBMAIL. They ask me why colour tags for each appointment are only visible on appointment CREATOR's calendar, but not on other shared users calendars.
My explanation was, that COLOR TAGS in calendar are personal choice, one may set "Green Tag" to be called PERSONAL TAG, while another user might use "Green Tag" for FREE time.
I also tried with separated shared calendars, each having it's own color...
...but by default COLORS of original calendars are not propagated to shared calendar users - all shared claendars are by default the same color.
So, as I assume colour TAGS cannot be shared automatically, I have two questions:
1.) Is there any option to somehow export or copy Calendar COLOR TAGS or some other COLOR calendar property from one user to all others?
2.) And if not, are there any other options to paint appointments with different COLORS in shared calendar, so all shared users would see it colored?
Thank you for ideas!

Team USA Defeats Europe, Fernandez in Palmer Cup
WILMINGTON, Del. – Team U.S.A. sealed its victory over Team Europe, Sunday, as competition concluded at the 2013 Palmer Cup at the Wilmington Country Club. The United States defeated Europe by a score of 20.5 to 9.5 in the match-play event.
Iowa State All-American Scott Fernandez competed for Europe in the event featuring the best collegiate golfers in the U.S. and Europe.
The first competition of the tournament, four ball, was pushed back to Saturday due to inclement weather. The United States took a 4.5 to 0.5 lead after winning four of the five matches and tying the fifth. Iowa State sophomore golfer Scott Fernandez and Pedro Figueiredo of UCLA were defeated by James Erkenbeck of New Mexico and Daniel Berger of Florida State 4&3.
In the first round of singles' play, the United States increased its lead to 11.5 to 3.5, receiving wins from Berger, Bobby Wyatt and Justin Thomas of Alabama, Patrick Rodgers of Stanford, Sean Dale of North Florida. Team Europe's lone victory of the round came from Kevin Phelan of North Florida. Fernandez halved his match with Alabama's Cory Whitsett in a round highlighted by six birdies.
Sunday's competition began with foursome-style match play, where Team Europe split with the United States, 2.5 to 2.5. Fernandez and teammate Ben Taylor of Nova Southeastern defeated Erkenbek and Weaver, 4&3. The United States led 14-6 going into the final round of singles competition.
In his final round, Fernandez fell to Whitsett, 3&2, as the United States capped off its tournament victory. Erkenbeck, Weaver, Thomas and Rodgers also earned victories in their matches for the stars and stripes. The European squad won two matches inSunday singles, as Taylor and Pontus Widegren of UCLA defeated their opponents.
Fernandez won 1.5 points for Europe in the prestigious event.

Continuum Aquatics Bio-Viv HUFA Dietary Supplement - 250 ml
Description: Essential Lipid Complex for all Fishes
• HUFA complex for all marine fishes & corals
• Provides omega-3 fatty acids EPA & DHA in complex form
• Particularly useful for fish suffering from HLLE
Bio•Viv HUFA essential lipid and vitamin complex provides essential Omega-3 fatty acids, DHA and EPA for growth and health of all fishes. It is particularly recommended for fish suffering from HLLE, head and lateral line erosion as a dietary supplement, and for immune system support. No medicinal claims are made for this use. It is designed to work with Bio•Viv M or F multivitamin and results will be enhanced by simultaneous use. It does not require refrigeration, but refrigeration after opening will prolong its shelf life significantly. Bio•Viv HUFA contains no glycerin, polysorbates or sugars.
Use in Aquarium Keeping:
Bio•Viv HUFA will help prevent deficiencies of essential oils. These oils are normally found in natural food sources in the ocean, but may not be present in dry, frozen or even live food sources, or at least in sufficient quantities to satifsy marine or freshwater fishes needs. Essential oil deficiencies can be responsible or a contributing cause for diseases in aquatic animals, just as in humans. It is prudent for the hobbyist to pay close attention to the variety, and quality of foods for both fishes and invertebrates, and the addition of Bio•Viv HUFA and Bio•Viv M or Bio•Viv F will help make sure that your animals get the broad range of vitamins and essential nutrients that they need without overloading the aquarium with unwanted ingredients.
Shake very well prior to use. Add 1 or more drops of Bio•Viv HUFA to dry, previously frozen, or live food as a soak and let stand for 15 minutes (45 minutes for live food). For best results, also add 4 or more drops of our marine multivitiman Bio•Viv M for marines or Bio•Viv F for freshwater. Similarly, use to fortify liquid food supplements. May be mixed with our Bio•Viv Garlic as an attractant for finicky eaters. Bio•Viv HUFA is not meant to be added directly to the aquarium and is too strong for such use.
Do not insert any tool into this bottle, particularly do not allow aquarium water to enter the bottle, to do so will introduce bacteria into the product and accelerate its decomposition. Instead, add appropriate amount of Bio•Viv HUFA into a cup. Feed all that you add or pour and do not return any product to the container (again to prevent contamination).
Keep out of reach of children. Not for human consumption. Contains emulsified oils, if ingested drink water. If in eyes flush with water.

The Climate Group welcomes Christiana Figueres as new climate chief
- Date
- 18 May 2010
Leading Latin American climate expert and negotiator Christiana Figueres of Costa Rica has been appointed to the top UN climate post by Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon. Ms Figueres will replace Yvo de Boer as the Executive Secretary of the UNFCCC at the end of July.
The appointment came after a long period of speculation over who would take over from Mr de Boer after announcing his resignation earlier this year, with Figueres and early favorite South African Tourism Minister Marthinus van Schalkwyk the main contenders for the position.
Figueres brings an insider's knowledge to the position and is widely respected amongst both developed and developing countries. For the past 15 years she has been part of Costa Rica's negotiating team, has already held positions on the UNFCCC's Bureau and been a member of the CDM Executive Board. Importantly, the Costa Rican's experience and knowledge of the often Byzantine workings of the UN negotiation process should help ensure a smooth transition from de Boer. This is likely to be vital given the complexity of the negotiations and with just six months to this year's climate conference in Mexico.
Figueres will assume her new position at a demanding time. The need to rebuild trust following the acrimonious Copenhagen summit remains an ongoing task. Recent international climate meetings, such as the Major Economies Forum, have highlighted that key divisions still remain between developed and developing countries, which will need to be bridged if further progress is to be made in the international climate negotiations.
Ms Figueres' appointment is the first time a developing country representative has held the top UNFCCC position. Coming from a small but environmentally progressive country, which has committed to carbon neutrality before 2030, Ms Figueres is well placed to build ambition amongst all parties.
Mark Kenber, Policy Director at The Climate Group, welcomed the announcement. "Christiana Figueres is a fitting successor to Yvo de Boer. Her in-depth understanding of the negotiating process, the needs of both developed and developing countries, and a pragmatic approach to problem solving make her ideally suited to the role. We wish her every success."

One thing that I think is always of use to world mappers is information about climates, and I'm sure each of us has our own cache of links. In doing some more research on climates, I came across this link.
There appears to be only a relatively brief overview of the forces interacting to bring about the various climates, but the images interspersed within the text are some of the clearest I've found, yet. Many of them I have actually seen separately elsewhere, as well, but they function extremely well here as a whole.
Definitely not an end-all to climate research, but very likely a valuable addition to a budding Climate research database.

Global Warming Art:Global Warming Art License
From Global Warming Art
Original works created for this site will usually be licensed under the "Global Warming Art License" which distinguishes different classes of use for different potential applications.
The three classes of use are "academic and non-commercial", "free content", and "commercial". The first two classes allow for broad reuse at no cost to the publisher and with no prior approval. The third class governs most commercial projects, and provides instructions for obtaining usage rights for a nominal fee.
Academic and non-commercial use
Images licensed under the "Global Warming Art License" may be freely used in any academic work where the author does not receive a fee. This includes journal publications and academic presentations. In addition the images may be used in any other form of non-commercial publication (See: Global Warming Art:Non-commercial).
In both cases authors are expected to follow these two simple rules:
- You should provide an acknowledgment alongside the image to both Global Warming Art and the image's author. The recommended format is something like "Image created by Robert A. Rohde / Global Warming Art" but this may be varied to conform with a publication's style.
- In projects where it is practical to do so, you should also include a link and/or reference to the specific description page associated with the image. This will have a form similar to:
Such references may appear either alongside the image, or in a separate section where other source material is acknowledged.
Academic authors are also invited to cite the source data and any other associated references when they feel doing so is useful to their publication. This information will generally be available on the image description page.
Authors of academic and non-commercial works may also request higher resolution and or vector graphics versions of images. Such requests will be filled, at no cost, when it is reasonable to do so.
Free content
Free content refers specifically to projects that create new work under a copyleft licensing scheme such as Wikipedia. The allowed free content licenses are:
- The GNU Free Documentation License Version 1.2 or Later.
- The Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License Version 2.5 or Later.
In each case, it is expected that the totality of the work will be provided under the free content license, thus ensuring that new content is created for future users. The specifics of these licenses vary, but in each case, the reuser is still expected to acknowledge Global Warming Art and provide a reference back to this site.
Since these licenses require that the resulting works be available for free redistribution, such licenses are unsuitable for most commercial projects.
Commercial Use
Most images created for Global Warming Art may be licensed for commercial use at a nominal fee that supports the operation and development of this work. Persons interested in obtaining such a license may contact email@example.com. You are encouraged to provide the following information:
- Name of the image or images required
- Name, nature, and target audience of the publication it is intended to appear in
- Approximate size of the print run or distribution
- Region and/or language of distribution
- Any additional rights requested

Some special friends gather together at Disney on Ice's 'Let's Celebrate'
(Page 3 of 3)
Mickey and his pals travel through each special time of year in this high-energy show that brings out a different side to the characters we all think we know so well.
'"The show takes on a contemporary perspective with new music, choreography, costumes and video technology that pumps incredible energy into every moment," said writer Jerry Bilik. "Mickey even causes a few mix-ups with his Digital Global Destinator, but in the end everything wraps up in one of the happiest celebrations ever."
The cast enjoys it all just as much as the audience, according to Butler. "We really enjoy helping kids achieve a dream. We get a warm feeling seeing the kids so happy at each performance. We really love performing for them."
