Here is our next Featured Member, ordre-symbolique
First of all, thank you so much ordre-symbolique for taking time and let me interview you!
#1 When did you start taking Urban & Rural Photos?
I began taking Urban and Rural photos back in 2007 when I participated in a study abroad program in Central Europe.
#2 What kind of equipment do you own for taking photos?
I use a Canon EOS 60D.
18-200 mm f/3.5-5.6
18-200 mm f/3.5-5.6
#3 Do you have a favourite Urban & Rural Photographer here on deviantART?
I really love the colors and depth of his urban and rural photographs. His unique transatlantic approach (between Europe and Boston) makes his photographs special.
His photographs of New York and Montreal are dazzling. The delicacy with which he treats his urban photographs creates a soothing atmosphere that I find aesthetically pleasing.
The angle and dynamic in which he chooses to shoot his subjects are quite extraordinary. It is as if his photographs evoke a story of a solitary wanderer.
Michela knows how to make city life photos come to life! I love how she uses dark and gloomy colors in order to make her subjects stand out. Her take on Vienna is really original. She makes Vienna stand out in a different light, which I really love.
I personally know Valerie, and she is the one who encouraged me to take photography as a serious hobby. Her landscapes of Australia and New Zealand are a delight to see, and her photos of New York inspired me to explore the city even further. Her urban exploration of Montreal also evokes her unique journalistic take of the city. She is also an excellent portrait photographer!
#4 What are your favourites from your own gallery and why?
Many of my favorites are the ones I haven't even uploaded yet. Stay tuned, because I'll be uploading my new set of photos of Boston really soon.
My personal favorite however is the one I took in Central Park in the beginning of Winter last year.
I just love the angle of the shot. It was a lucky shot, because I caught those two ladies walking by, and instantly knew it would be a lovely scene to capture. I find the photograph really soothing, especially with the colors of the leaves of the trees. The light that just creaks in behind the tree produces a warm and homely atmosphere.
#5 How or why did you start taking U&R related photos?
My stay in Europe back in 2007 really pushed me to take photography as a serious hobby, because I observed how people, in general, are actively involved in their cities. The architecture, the streets, the parks, the museums, and the metro are all places readily available to be engaged with. This urban engagement is what really fascinated me, because it made the city more lively, and therefore encouraged me to capture these moments on my camera. 2007 was a golden year for me, because I also visited New York City for the first time in my life. The liveliness and immensity of New York produced a subliminal feeling that pushed me to explore the city. This is when I absolutely fell in love with the city.
Stay tuned for the next Volume!

It is one of the most common reasons a major leaguer uses in forgoing the opportunity to hit in the Home Run Derby: "It will mess up my swing". We set out to explore whether or not this excuse is fact, or just a myth.
For our research, we looked at each Home Run Derby contestant since 2006. We calculated each contestant's at-bat per home run rate for the first half of the season and compared them to their at-bats per homer in the second half. We did the same for the entire league, and for All-Stars not participating in the Home Run Derby.
Of the 40 Home Run Derby contestants since 2006, only 13 improved their home run pace, and just 16 improved their batting averages following the Derby. But that doesn't tell the whole story.
Average HR Derby Contestants
Since 2006
Home Run Derby contestants clearly outslug the league in the second half, but overall, the league tends to improve after the break, while the contestants decline. What stands out is that these sluggers see only a slight dip in their homer pace and in their batting averages.
We also examined how age may play a factor in the second-half decline, but that turned up little difference as well. Contestants aged 28 and younger averaged 2.26 more at-bats per homer after the derby, while contestants aged 29 and older averaged 2.95 more at-bats per homer afterwards. A small, and likely insignificant difference in the two groups.
Average All-Star Since 2006
Another interesting trend is that All-Stars (excluding Derby participants) see a significant drop-off in their batting average in the second half of the season. In fact, these non-Derby All-Stars have come into the break with a higher cumulative batting average than the Derby contestants, but have hit slightly worse in the second half compared to the contestants. Although the non-Derby All-Stars also see their at-bats per homer decrease, the decrease is less than that seen by Derby contestants.
However, there is one area where the Derby participants see a significant decline, especially when compared to their non-Derby All-Star peers: the non-Derby All-Stars actually see a slight increase in their average home run distance in the second half, while the Derby sluggers see a fairly significant decrease.
One last question we tried to answer was how Home Run Derby champions performed after the break. Of the five champions since 2006, three (Prince Fielder, Vladimir Guerrero and Ryan Howard) actually improved their home run pace.
Last year's champ David Ortiz saw his at-bat per homer pace slow following the Derby, but actually improved his batting average by 14 points. Among the last five champions, the 2008 winner Justin Morneau, saw his overall performance significantly decline after the Derby. That's not surprising though, as Morneau has hit nearly 40 points higher and averages over five fewer at-bats per homer before the All-Star Break compared to after it for his career.
Fans, coaches, owners and sluggers alike can all rest easy. Their numbers may decline a bit, but Home Run Derby contestants still remain far better sluggers than the rest of the league.

Self-organization in electron temperature gradient driven turbulence13(2006); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.2335821View Description Hide Description
Based on first principle gyrokinetic calculations, a zonal flow generation mechanism in the slab electron temperature gradient driven (ETG) turbulence with weak magnetic shear is identified as self-organization via the turbulent spectral cascade in the two dimensional rotating fluid turbulence. The inverse energy cascade and the scaling of a zonal flow wavenumber, which is consistent with the Rhines scale length, are confirmed. An impact of the scaling, which depends on the density gradient, on the turbulent structure and transport is demonstrated for the slab ETG turbulence.
Observation of a quasimonoenergetic electron beam from a femtosecond prepulse-exploded foil13(2006); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.2336589View Description Hide Description
We report the first observation of a quasimonoenergetic electron beam emitted from a femtosecond prepulse-exploded foil. At earlier, a -thick plastic foil is irradiated by a copropagating femtosecond prepulse of modest intensity , which then explodes to become an underdense foil plasma. When a 70-fs high-intensity pulse arrives and interacts with it, a collimated electron beam of divergence angle is emitted in the forward direction. The energy spectrum of the electron beam shows a quasimonoenergetic peak at of energy spread , within which about pC of charge is contained.
Perturbation evolution started by Richtmyer-Meshkov instability in planar laser targets13(2006); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.2227272View Description Hide Description
The first observations of the interaction of the Richtmyer-Meshkov (RM)instability with reflected shock and rarefaction waves in laser-driven targets are reported. The RM growth is started by a shock wave incident upon a rippled interface between low-density foam and solid plastic. The subsequent interaction of secondary rarefaction and/or shock waves arriving from the ablation front and the rear surface of the target with the RM-unstable interface stops the perturbation growth and reverses its direction. The ensuing exponential Rayleigh-Taylor growth thus can sometimes proceed with an inverted phase.

Dispersive electromagnetic drift modes in nonuniform quantum magnetoplasmas13(2006); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.2261851View Description Hide Description
The existence of new electromagnetic drift modes in nonuniform quantum magnetoplasmas is predicted. For this purpose, new dispersion relations are derived by employing the quantum magnetohydrodynamic equation for plasmas without and with ion motions. The effects of electron corrections due to quantum fluctuations, density gradients, and external magnetic field strengths on the angular wave frequencies and growth/damping rates are examined. The present analytical and numerical investigations are relevant to dense astrophysical objects.
The Vlasov-Poisson model and the validity of a numerical approach13(2006); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.2215596View Description Hide Description
Our aim in this work is to show that the final macroscopic state of a noncollisional plasma system, computed through numerical simulations, depends on artificial small scale effects induced by the used numerical scheme and/or grid discretization. By using the continuous, Hamiltonian Vlasov-Poisson model, we found significant differences in the nonlinear dynamics when varying the importance of dissipative and/or dispersive (numerical) effects. In particular, such artificial processes are crucial during phase space vortex generation and vortex merging dynamics leading to different irreversible asymptotic states. These results are obtained for numerical grid scale lengths much smaller than any noncollisional physical scale length.
Semi-analytical model for flux-pileup-limited, dynamically reconnecting systems in resistive magnetohydrodynamics13(2006); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.2244531View Description Hide Description
A simple zero-dimensional model is proposed that synthesizes the complex dynamics of driven, two-dimensional, magnetically reconnecting systems within the resistivemagnetohydrodynamics(MHD) framework. The model applies to the so-called asymptotic regime of the well-known magnetic island coalescence problem, where well-separated macroscopic "ideal" and microscopic "resistive" regions are assumed to exist. The dynamics of the ideal region is described in terms of the Lorentz and pressure gradient forces on current filaments, and conservation of magnetic flux; that of the resistive region is described in terms of plasma flow and magnetic field magnitudes at the current sheet boundaries. Matching of the two regions provides the evolution equation for the current sheet thickness. The results for the O-point position versus time, reconnection rate, current sheet thickness, etc., at different resistivities obtained from the model agree well with those from the fully nonlinear two-dimensional reduced MHD simulation.
Soliton reflection in a negative ion containing plasma: Effect of magnetic field and ion temperature13(2006); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.2335427View Description Hide Description
Considering an inhomogeneous plasma having negative ions, positive ions, and electrons, relevant modified Korteweg-de Vries equations are derived and solved for obtaining the expressions of amplitudes and widths of the incident and reflected solitons together with the reflection coefficient under the combined effect of magnetic field, obliqueness (angle between the magnetic field and the direction of wave propagation) and ion temperature. A limit is found on the obliqueness for the reflection of incident soliton, which shows a dependence on the density, temperature, and drift velocity of both the ions. The incident solitons are observed to reflect more strongly under the effects of weak magnetic field, higher negative ion density, higher ion temperature, stronger density gradient and smaller angle . It is inferred that whereas the incident solitons show faster change in their characteristics with the ion density, the reflected solitons are more sensitive to the ion temperature.
Nonlinear electromagnetic plasma eigenmodes and their stability to stimulated Raman scattering13(2006); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.2234647View Description Hide Description
Transverse mode structure of nonlinear laser eigenmodes in underdense and overdense plasmas has been obtained by numerically solving the wave equation under relativistic and ponderomotive nonlinearities. The mode structure closely resembles a Lorentzian with half width scaling inversely as the axial intensity of the laser. The threshold condition for laser penetration in an overdense plasma turns out to be , where is the equilibrium electron density, is the critical density at laser frequency, and is the electron Lorentz factor due to the laser of normalized axial intensity . The nonlinear laser eigenmode, in a low density plasma, is unstable to stimulated Raman backscattering off a copropagating space charge reactive quasimode. The growth rate increases with laser intensity as rises up to . Beyond this value, growth rate decreases with , due to the enhancement of electron mass and depletion of electrons from the axial region. Geometrical effects also reduce the growth rate.
Simulation of high-energy particle production through sausage and kink instabilities in pinched plasma discharges13(2006); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.2245577View Description Hide Description
In an experimental plasma, high-energy particles were observed by using a plasma focus device, to obtain energies of a few hundred keV for electrons, up to MeV for ions. In order to study the mechanism of high-energy particle production in pinched plasma discharges, a numerical simulation was introduced. By use of a three-dimensional relativistic and fully electromagnetic particle-in-cell code, the dynamics of a Z-pinchplasma, thought to be unstable against sausage and kink instabilities, are investigated. In this work, the development of sausage and kink instabilities and subsequent high-energy particle production are shown. In the model used here, cylindrically distributed electrons and ions are driven by an external electric field. The driven particles spontaneously produce a current, which begins to pinch by the Lorentz force. Initially the pinched current is unstable against a sausage instability, and then becomes unstable against a kink instability. As a result high-energy particles are observed.
Influences of the dust size and the dust charge variations to the low-frequency wave modes in a dusty plasma13(2006); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.2221682View Description Hide Description
The effects of both the dust size distribution and the adiabatic dust charge variation in unmagnetized dusty plasmas have been studied. Both the analytical and the numerical results are given to compare the differences between the dustplasma with a power-law distribution and the mono-sized dusty plasma. The comparisons are also given between the dusty plasmas with or without charge fluctuations. The present analytical results show that only rarefactive solitary waves exist in this system, which is similar to that without dust charge variation. However, it is shown that the presence of adiabatic dust charge variations and the dust size distribution can significantly influence the characteristic of low-frequency wave modes. This investigation can be relevant to the dust acoustic waves in various space plasma environments, such as Jupiter's ring and interstellar dusty clouds.
Electrostatic potentials and energy loss due to a projectile propagating through a non-Maxwellian dusty plasma13(2006); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.2231596View Description Hide Description
The electrostatic potentials (Debye and wake) and energy loss due to a charged projectile propagating through an unmagnetized collisionless dusty plasma are derived employing kappa and generalized velocity distributions for the dust acoustic wave. It is found that these quantities in general differ from their Maxwellian counterparts and are sensitive to the values of spectral index, in the case of kappa distribution and to , in the case of generalized distribution. The amplitudes of these quantities are less for small values of the spectral index (, , ) but approach the Maxwellian in the limit (for kappa distribution) and for , [for generalized distribution]. For any nonzero value of , the potential and the energy loss grow beyond the Maxwellian results. The effect of kappa and generalized distributions on potential and energy loss is also studied numerically and the results are compared with those of the Maxwellian distribution.
Oblique electromagnetic instabilities for a hot relativistic beam interacting with a hot and magnetized plasma13(2006); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.2335414View Description Hide Description
The temperature-dependentfluid model from Phys. Plasmas13, 042106 (2006) is expanded in order to explore the oblique electromagnetic instabilities, which are driven by a hot relativistic electron beam that is interpenetrating a hot and magnetized plasma. The beam velocity vector is parallel to the magnetic-field direction. The results are restricted to nonrelativistic temperatures. The growth rates of all instabilities but the two-stream instability can be reduced by a strong magnetic field so that the distribution of unstable waves becomes almost one dimensional. For high beam densities, highly unstable oblique modes dominate the spectrum of unstable waves as long as , where is the electron gyrofrequency, is the electron plasma frequency, and is the relativistic factor of the beam. A uniform stabilization over the entire space cannot be achieved.
Nonstationarity of diffusion-controlled surface-wave-sustained discharges in a cw regime13(2006); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.2336421View Description Hide Description
The theory of the cw regime of maintenance of surface-wave-sustained gas discharges developed up to now is for discharge production at a given frequency. A generalization of this theory is presented here by considering discharge maintenance by a narrow-band signal, the actual situation in the experiments. Discharge production in a diffusion-controlled regime is treated within the fluid plasma theory. The set of the equations is for the interrelated variations along the discharge length of the time-dependent envelope of the electric field maintaining the plasma and for the time-dependent plasmacharacteristics(plasma density, electron temperature, power absorbed on average by an electron). The numerical results presented for the time-space variations of wave-field amplitude and plasma density describe the nonstationary state of the cw regime of discharge maintenance. Detailed analysis with deterministic signals (Gaussian and super-Gaussian pulses) superimposed on a stationary cw-power level demonstrate different types of nonlinear effects—self-steepening and spontaneous modulation near the pulse edge—which are reminiscent of phenomena known from the nonlinear optics. The results for discharge maintenance by a high-frequency power modulated by a narrow-band low-amplitude Gaussian noise are discussed in terms of discharge stability/instability. Relevance to experimental finding in surface-wave-sustained discharge is commented on.
Solitary electrostatic waves are possible in unmagnetized symmetric pair plasmas13(2006); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.2335819View Description Hide Description
A possibility of stationary solitary electrostatic waves with large amplitude in symmetric unmagnetized symmetric pair plasmas (plasma,plasma or plasma) is proven. The main idea of the work is a thermodynamic unequilibrium of plasma species which may be created in low-density ideal pair plasmas. Ranges of parameters (Mach number and a nonequilibrium degree ) which lead to the possibility of solitary waves are found.
Hydrodynamics of shock waves with reflected particles. I. Rankine-Hugoniot relations and stationary solutions13(2006); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.2336185View Description Hide Description
In this work we investigate how reflected particles modify the Rankine-Hugoniot (RH) relations in a simple hydrodynamical framework. It is assumed that the ions are specularly reflected by the cross-shock potential. For simplicity, an exactly perpendicular shock is assumed, thus other reflection mechanisms, such as magnetic mirroring, can be neglected. Momentum and energy terms are introduced to model reflected particles at the shock and the RH conditions are examined using a geometrical entropy condition to distinguish the physically relevant states. Although such shocks have some common features with combustion shocks within a narrow range of reflection parameters, for a wide range of reflection parameters, particularly for highly oblique shocks, Chapman-Jouguet solutions do not exist. It is conjectured that these shocks comprise a distinct class. Decelerated solutions of the RH conditions are shown to exist only under specific conditions for shocks with reflected particles. Velocity flows both parallel and oblique to the perpendicular shock (with respect to an upstream magnetic field) are considered and found to be strongly sheared.

Existence of bulk acoustic modes in pair plasmas13(2006); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.2227270View Description Hide Description
In view of applications to electron-positron and fullerene pair plasmas, a thorough discussion is given of the dispersion of linear electrostatic waves, before finding the parameter ranges in which stationary nonlinear electrostatic modes can exist, when there is a thermodynamic asymmetry between both constituents. Arguments for such an asymmetry can be found in the observed dispersion in fullerene pair plasma experiments, but point to small asymmetries. The existence of solitary modes is first discussed in general terms for various polytropic pressure-density relations, showing that the solitons are always compressive in both pair components. For large thermal asymmetries, there is at most a doubling of the densities, but small asymmetries lead to weakly nonlinear amplitudes, described by familiar Korteweg-de Vries solitons. Observations of an intermediate wave in the theoretical gap between the acoustic and Langmuir branches of the linear dispersion diagram might be accounted for, at least partially, by a train of weak solitons, as the difference between weak solitary modes and linear harmonic waves is rather difficult to ascertain experimentally.
Nonlinear dynamics of electrostatic ion-temperature-gradient modes in a dust-contaminated plasma with variable charge and sheared ion flows13(2006); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.2231630View Description Hide Description
By employing Braginskii transportequations for ions and Boltzmann distribution for electrons in a dust-contaminated plasma with equilibrium density, temperature, and magnetic field gradients, the nonlinear set of equations are derived. New ion-temperature-gradient driven modes are obtained and various limiting cases are discussed. It is shown that the ion-temperature-gradient driven mode of drift-waves are attenuated in the presence of dust-charge fluctuations. It has been found that dust charging is always dissipative and the growth rate of various modes are damped. Furthermore, the possible stationary solution of the nonlinear mode coupling equations can be represented in the form of dipolar and vortex chains type solutions. The results of the present investigation should be helpful in understanding the fluctuations and transport phenomena in magnetically confined dustcontaminated tokamakplasma.
Evolution of nonlinear ion-acoustic solitary wave propagation in rotating plasma13(2006); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.2245578View Description Hide Description
A simple unmagnetized plasma rotating around an axis at an angle with the propagation direction of the acoustic mode has been taken. The nonlinear wave mode has been derived as an equivalent Sagdeev potential equation. A special procedure, known as the tanh method, has been developed to study the nonlinear wave propagation in plasma dynamics. Further, under small amplitude approximation, the nonlinear plasma acoustic mode has been exploited to study the evolution of soliton propagation in the plasma. The main emphasis has been given to the interaction of Coriolis force on the changes of coherent structure of the soliton. The solitary wave solution finds the different nature of solitons called compressive and rarefactive solitons as well as its explosions or collapses along with solitondynamics and these have been showing exciting observations in exhibiting a narrow wave packet with the generation of high electric pressure and the growth of high energy which, in turn, yields the phenomena of radiating soliton in dynamics.
Anomalous resistivity of current-driven isothermal plasmas due to phase space structuring13(2006); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.2209611View Description Hide Description
The anomalous electric resistivity of collisionless plasmas is an important issue in the physics of hot plasmas, e.g., in the context of auroral particle acceleration and of reconnection in the solar corona. The linear stability theory of isothermal current driven space plasmas predicts an ion-acoustic instability if the relative drift velocity of the current carrying particles exceeds a certain threshold, which, generally, depends on the plasma parameters. The spectrum of waves, excited by a marginal instability, is very narrow. Hence, the wave power at saturation and the corresponding electric resistivity due to wave-particle interaction cannot be obtained by means of a quasilinear, weak turbulence approach and the nonlinear single mode theory provides too small saturation amplitudes. To solve the nonlinear problem a newly developed unsplit conservative Eulerian Vlasov code is applied to simulate a strongly magnetized current driven plasma, which can be considered in 1D1V (one spatial, one velocity space direction). Instead of periodic boundary conditions, usually used as they are simpler to treat, open boundaries are implemented which allow to maintain a constant current flow. Simulated is a typical almost isothermal hot space plasma for the real mass ratio . The initial spontaneous instability is followed by a three-stage nonlinear evolution: First electron trapping leads to the formation of electron phase space holes. Due to a steepening of the leading edges of the potential wells the electron phase space holes gradually become asymmetric, they grow in size and deepen. The phase space holes accelerate until they move much faster than the initial ion-acoustic waves. The interaction of the current carriers with the asymmetric potential wells and causes a nonvanishing net momentum transfer between the particles and the self-generated electric field. After a few ion plasma periods ion trapping starts until, finally, an electrostaticdouble layer arises. It is found that the nonlinear saturated state of the system is dominated by the particle interaction with coherent phase space structures. The corresponding anomalous resistivity is slightly modulated with an oscillation period ). For a macroscopic description its major part can be parameterized by means of an effective collision rate of the order of , where is the electron and the ion plasma frequency.
Quasilinear calculation of Langmuir wave generation and beam propagation in the presence of density fluctuations13(2006); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.2218331View Description Hide Description
The generation of beam-driven Langmuir waves and the propagation of an electron beam in the presence of ambient density fluctuations are numerically studied using quasilinear calculations in one spatial dimension. The random spatiotemporal density fluctuations are driven externally as ion-sound-like turbulence. The effects of Langmuir wavescattering off density inhomogeneities in three spatial dimensions are represented through effective damping of the Langmuir waves, and are included in the quasilinear model. The numerical results are explored for illustrative parameters, and Langmuir wave field statistics are compared with stochastic growth theory (SGT) predictions. Due to the combined effects of quasilinear interaction with the beam and scattering off density fluctuations, the Langmuir waves show burstiness and the levels are generally lower than when the density is homogeneous, qualitatively consistent with previous predictions. Apart from early evolution, the average beam speed is approximately the same as in the homogeneous case, but relaxation of the beam is significantly retarded. Both features are in qualitative agreement with earlier predictions. Moreover, the beam distribution function displays relatively smooth variations, which implies that the burstiness in the wave levels originates predominantly from the randomness in the damping rate due to density perturbations, rather than from the stochasticity in the beam growth rate. The statistics of the Langmuir wave field show good agreement with SGT predictions, thus indicating the beam-Langmuir wave system is in a SGT state. Furthermore, variations of the density fluctuation parameters are found to affect the evolution of both beam and Langmuir waves.

Installation of both packages on the Mac was easy; good documentation is included but wasn't necessary. After running the installer, you open GarageBand and drag the Loops folder into its Browser.
Software instruments are divided by category into subfolders. SonicBoomBox categorizes instruments as Bass, Drums, Ethnic & Co, Guitar, Keyboards, Percussions, and Synthetic Sounds. EthnicBoomBox's categories are Africa, Asia-India, Balkanish, Latin Bass, Middle East, Occidental-Celtic, Spanish Guitars, and Xtra Percussions. Both collections share a graphical user interface that closely resembles that of Ultimate Sound Bank's Plugsound series of instrument plug-ins. It features synthlike controls such as ADSR envelopes, four Velocity curves, and a choice of four resonant filter types. You can customize each instrument and save user presets, and you can even create new instruments.
All of SonicBoomBox's instruments sound uniformly good (see Web Clips 1 through 10). Some of the highlights are in the Bass, Ethnic & Co, and Drums categories. Acoustic, electric, and synth basses are available; the acoustics have a nice, natural pluck to them, and the synths feature some tummy-rumbling subs. The Ethnic & Co folder contains a few first-rate stringed instruments, including banjos, a rich classical harp, and some interesting Dobros, tzouras, and bouzoukis. Among the drums is an outstanding variety of MIDI-mapped kits covering jazz, rock, electro, and beyond.
My favorite instrument categories in EthnicBoomBox are Asia-India, Middle East, and Xtra Percussions. Asia-India supplies some very good sitars, as well as lamelofon, shakuhachi, and Japanese and Malaysian percussion. Along with some nice Arabic violins, the Middle East folder includes saz, bouzoukis, and ouds. Xtra Percussions covers such oddities as kachichi, cajon, flexitone, and an excellent berimbau. All of them provide multisamples with Velocity layers that enhance their musicality.
SonicBoomBox's loops cover the electronic-music gamut (see Web Clips 11 through 14). They're divided into folders with names such as Big Beat, Funk-Groove, and Hard Techno. Each contains plenty of subfolders that reflect the collection's diversity. Some highlights include Vocal Phrases, Brass, Sound FX, and Turntable Loops. The Vocals Phrases tend toward the soulful diva-esque, and there are some interesting talkbox snippets, too. Brass encompasses musical genres from funk to big band, with trombones, sax, trumpets, and more. Sound FX offers a terrific selection of cinematic textures covering aquatic sounds, guns, ambience, and subways. Turntable Loops, which were apparently sampled from rare funk and soul recordings, are gems for their old-school hip-hop flavor.
EthnicBoomBox's loop folders are Africa-South Africa, Asia, Balkanish, European-Celtic, Indonesian-Gamelan, Latin-Cuba-Brazil, Mediterranean-Mahgreb, Spanish-Gipsy, and Xtra Percussions (see Web Clips 15 through 17). Each is a treasure chest of world instrumentation, percussion, vocals, and ambient sounds. Within the Indonesian folder alone are subfolders such as Ambiances, Indian Flutes, Papang, Pungi, Ravanhata, and Sitar. There are too many highlights to adequately describe here; simply put, EthnicBoomBox adeptly traverses the globe.
Overall, all the loops are well recorded and seamlessly looped. Many are dry, whereas some have effects artfully applied. The loops in both collections are well grouped, though unfortunately, many categories have only one selection in a given style. Like their instrument counterparts, the loops' naming scheme is succinct and descriptive; parent folder names are included.
My one criticism is the loops' lack of key or original tempo notation in their names, though tempos are notated in GarageBand's Browser. Knowing keys at a glance can be essential when matching musical loops from different directories. Although many programs do a fine job of time-stretching, keeping loops near their original tempo still produces the best possible sound. I highly recommend the SonicBoomBox and EthnicBoomBox collections, especially to GarageBand users. The instruments and their shared user interface are excellent, and the loops are tight. And if you prefer orchestral sounds, ClassicalBoomBox ($99) is also available. Each DVD is an excellent value.

THE first of the illustrations in this volume is a facsimile of a portion of an excellent map entitled "Novi Belgii Novoeque Angliæ necnon Pennsylvaniæ et Partis Virginiæ Tabula," by N. J. Visscher, a prominent Dutch map-engraver of the middle of the seventeenth century. The whole map embraces, as the title implies, all those parts of New England, the Middle States, and Maryland which at that time had been settled by white men or had become known, more or less accurately, through their explorations. The whole map measures twenty-two by nineteen inches. The part which has been selected for reproduction in this volume covers the regions especially involved in the narratives printed therein. The map is chosen as representing the state of things at the time when Swedish occupation of the Delaware River region gave way to Dutch. Its date cannot be later than June 28, 1656, since a copy of it accompanied a report of that date from the directors of the Dutch West India Company to the States General of the United Netherlands. On the other hand it can hardly have been finished before February, 1655, since in that month the directors of the West India Company authorized the publication of the first edition of Adriaen van der Donck's Beschrijvinge van Niew Nederlant, which has no map, while the second edition, published in 1656, has a map copied partly from Visscher's. I am informed by Mr. Wilberforce Eames of the New York Public Library, to whom I am indebted for much information respecting the map, that, though the map was formerly reputed exceedingly rare, there are probably now in this country a dozen or twenty copies of it in this form. Twenty-eight years later Visscher's son published a reissue of the map from a plate retouched with the addition of Philadelphia and other places and names belonging to subsequent history.
The second illustration in the volume is a reproduction of Thomas Holme's "Portraiture of the City of Philadelphia". Thomas Holme

I wan't to grade an uploadsingle assignment and use the grading GUI in assignment, not all of the students have already submitted an assignment
What happens
I open the overview of the submitted assignment, see all students with or without submitted assignments and choose the first not graded submitted assignment to grade. (click on status->grade not with quickgrading) The new grading window opens, with the url:...mode=single&filter=0&offset=2
I click next and expect that the next not graded assignment opens but it's another person (later in the overview-list) and again next ... some students does never apear and in the end there are no buttons but i did not have graded all the subissions.
The same thing happens when I choose to see only the submitted or already graded students in the overview table.
A wrong array is stored because in the first url there is the variable 'filter' and this filter disapears in the code .
One problem is in lib.php near line 964 that the filter in the url is set to 0 or 1 or 2 and in the code is says:
if($filter == 'submitted')
else if($filter == 'requiregrading'){ $where .= 's.timemarked < s.timemodified AND '; }
another problem is, that somebody forgot to set the filter in some functions

Chances are you haven't been making the best investing decisions.
BECAUSE THAT'S HOW WALL STREET WANTS IT
"[T]he always irreverent author of the Reformed Broker blog has written an excellent narrative that shares all of your broker's dirty little secrets. Much like Michael Lewis' Liar's Poker captured the essence of 1980s institutional Wall Street, Brown's Backstage Wall Street recreates the boiler room retail brokerage culture of the 1990s and early 2000s in vivid color.â€
"With a smirk, a lashing wit, and an appropriate irreverence, Joshua Brown gives voice to what all investment professionals are—or should be—secretly thinking.â€
—MICHAEL SANTOLI, Barron's columnist
"The pages of this book are filled with colorful exposés of misconduct in the way Wall Street presents and sells itself (and its financial products offerings!). . . . Run don't walk to read Brown's chronicles of deception [perpetrated by] those wonderful folks on Wall Street, who nearly bankrupted the world's fi nancial system a few short years ago.â€
—DOUGLAS A. KASS, Seabreeze Partners Management, Inc.
"Everything you've ever read about Wall Street is a total lie. Everyone is lying to you every day. Until you read this book.â€
—JAMES ALTUCHER, Formula Capital and author of I Was Blind but Now I See
"Joshua wants Wall Street to be awesome. You can feel it every day on his amazing blog and in this great book. He is happy to shout when Wall Street drives him crazy. I guarantee you will enjoy this book that describes the action behind the business of Wall Street and his own experiences along the way.â€
—HOWARD LINDZON, Lindzon Capital and founder of StockTwits
"Joshua Brown may be the funniest writer on finance today, but Backstage Wall Street could make you cry more than laugh. The buffoons, manipulators, and incompetents Brown parades before us are the stewards of our retirement accounts....What's important is that investors understand the choices before them. Backstage Wall Street goes a long way to taking us backstage, while making us laugh in the process."
About the Book:
Wall Street is very good at one thing: convincing you to act against your own interests. And there's no one out there better equipped with the knowledge and moxie to explain how it all works than Josh Brown. A man The New York Times referred to as "the Merchant of Snark†and Barron's called "pot-stirring and provocative,†Brown worked for 10 years in the industry, a time during which he learned some hard truths about how clients are routinely treated—and how their money is sent on a one-way trip to Wall Street's coffers.
Backstage Wall Street reveals the inner workings of the world's biggest money machine and explains how a relatively small confederation of brilliant, sometimes ill-intentioned people fuel it, operate it, and repair it when necessary—none of which is for the good of the average investor.
Offering a look that only a long-term insider could provide (and that only a "reformed†insider would want to provide), Brown describes:
THE PEOPLE—Why retail brokers always profit—even if you don't
THE PRODUCTS—How funds, ETFs, and other products are invented as failsafe profit generators—for the inventors alone
THE PITCH—The marketing schemes designed for one thing and one thing only: to separate you from your money
It's that bad . . . but there's a light at the end of the tunnel. Brown gives you the knowledge you need to make the right decisions at the right time.
Backstage Wall Street is about seeing reality for what it is and adjusting your actions accordingly. It's about learning who and what to steer clear of at all times. And it's about setting the stage for a bright financial future—your own way.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 by 2 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5 by jesterdocadoo a good compromise I wanted to install permanent 'sail' cloth over an open patio but the pricing was too much so I searched for an umbrella but did not want a standard, through the middle of the table one. This was a good compromise. I purchased the stand where you could place your own tiles in the base and the base disappears into my travertine. Very nice touch. The only complaint was that there were instructions included in the package that did not apply and therefore was a little confusing when putting it together. June 23, 2011
Rated 3 out of 5 by supercoop not easy to use This is an attractive umbrella but is cumbersome to open and close. There are small parts that are unique to this umbrella and would be hard to replace if lost. These small parts have to be removed in order to open and close the umbrella. Furthermore the pole that you are supposed to use to change the angle of the umbrella is too high for someone under 5'5" to reach. I would not purchase this umbrella again. Good if you plan on setting it up and never moving it. April 14, 2013

Las Pinas Representative Mark Villar has filed House Bill No. 2820, which seeks to create a P1-billion Special Assistance Fund for overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) in distress.
Villar filed the measure in the light of increasing number of distressed OFWs, both documented and undocumented, in various countries, specifically in the Middle East.
Last year, based on the 2013 figures of the Department of Labor and Employment (DoLE), 2,283 overseas OFWs and their children were repatriated from strife-torn Syria, Egypt and from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Villar's proposed measure seeks to use 30 percent of the P1-billion standby fund to support a livelihood training program or re-training of returning overseas Filipino workers in new skills and knowlege.
The remainder of the fund shall be utilized for repatriation, medical expenses, hospitalization and purchase of medicine in the form of vouchers for six months from arrival; migration fees for overstaying Filipinos; legal assistance including litigation expenses, legal fees, payment of translation fees, attendance in court hearings; payment of blood money, when necessary; and basic necessities of OFWs caught in emergence or are detained.

Britani GroupNicaraguaClothingFunding via ADIM (Asociación Alternativa Para el Desarrollo Integral de las Mujeres)
Havila Group
In this group is Ana Maria C. A. who sells food, Olga Marina who distributes Avon brand cosmetics, and the coordinator of this group, Yahoska Eveling M.. Yahoska's goal is to have a clothing store. A year and a half ago she began selling used clothing in small quantities, and so far she has not had enough capital to invest in more than a little inventory. Thanks to the loans from ADIM she has been able to purchase a little more to please her clientele. She will use this loan to purchase more clothing as well.
Additional Information
About ADIMLocated in Central America, ADIM is a small microfinance institution with a strong social focus. In the saturated microfinance market of Nicaragua, ADIM stands out for its emphasis on the holistic development of women as well as its provision of responsible financial services. Founded in 1989 by a small group of Nicaraguan women, this institution has remained true to its initial goal of providing its clients (90% of which are women) with an opportunity for economic growth, in addition to personal and professional empowerment. Supporting an ADIM borrower means contributing not only to the continued offering of the socially conscious services it provides, but also to the sustainable growth of a truly unique microfinance institution.
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.

The University of Washington wants to renovate and upgrade Husky Stadium with help from some of the same taxes the Seattle Sonics have tried...
The University of Washington wants to renovate and upgrade Husky Stadium with help from some of the same taxes the Seattle Sonics have tried to tap for the past three years.
The university's Board of Regents was briefed Thursday on the proposal to ask the state Legislature for $150 million in public money to renovate the stadium, much of which was built in 1920.
The UW would finance the rest of the $300 million project with donations and revenue from premium seating.
The university is hoping to pull off what the Sonics couldn't — persuade wary lawmakers to subsidize a sports stadium with tax dollars. But former Gov. Dan Evans, who heads the UW committee on the stadium, told regents that he and Scott Woodward, interim athletic director, received a good first reception in Olympia Wednesday.
- Seattle fifth-graders will get their camp trip, but teachers refuse to go
- Designed in Seattle, this $1 cup could save millions of babies
- Five things to watch as Seahawks begin OTAs Monday
- What the national media are saying about Robinson Cano and the Mariners' hot start to the season
- Ivar's looks to sell, lease back two venerable restaurant sites
Most Read Stories
"I think we're in the ballgame," he said.
Initial reactions in Olympia were positive.
"I'm willing to talk about it with them," said House Speaker Frank Chopp, D-Seattle.
That's significant. For the past three years, Chopp was openly hostile to using public money to pay for a new Sonics arena.
Asked if Husky Stadium is a more sympathetic cause than the Sonics, Chopp said, "Oh God, by light years."
He pointed out that, unlike the Sonics, the UW football program is "not professional, it's not for profit and the players make nothing." And he said the stadium is used for numerous events besides Husky football.
Senate Ways and Means Chairwoman Margarita Prentice, who supported the Sonics' proposals, agreed the university's pitch has a much better chance of success.
"They're not even comparable," said Prentice, D-Renton. "I see this as a genuine emergency. It's really dangerous to walk" through some parts of the stadium.
Even Chris Van Dyk, the activist who has a long history of fighting public financing for sports stadiums, said he did not want to give a "knee-jerk" no to the proposal because he isn't familiar enough with the problems at Husky Stadium.
But he said he will look at the proposal with skepticism and added, "Any teaching organization, any college that can pay the kinds of salaries that they pay to their coaches probably doesn't need any tax subsidies."
The university seeks to extend some of the taxes now being used to pay off debts from Safeco and Qwest fields. Those include taxes on hotels, car rentals and restaurants in King County.
Evans and Woodward said the university would leave it up to legislators to decide which of those taxes would be most appropriate.
Evans said he thinks this is the first time the university has asked for public help to build athletic facilities, except for some seismic work on Edmundson Pavilion.
But it's not unprecedented for universities to do so. In 2006, the Minnesota Legislature voted to pay more than half the cost of a new football stadium at the University of Minnesota.
In October, the University of Washington learned that cost projections for the stadium makeover far exceeded expected revenues. To close that gap, it also scaled back the project from $415 million to $300 million.
The university is stressing that it's asking for a lot less money than the Mariners, Seahawks or Sonics, and a smaller share of public dollars. It says it is seeking a 50-50 split, while the Sonics initially wanted the state to provide roughly 60 percent for a new $500 million arena, and public money made up about 70 percent of Qwest and Safeco Field costs.
The $150 million from the state would essentially rebuild the lower bowl portion of the stadium, addressing safety concerns and bringing it up to modern standards for disabled accessibility.
The $150 million in improvements, to be paid with private dollars, would go toward new premium seating and a club room, lowering the field by 8 feet to improve the view from the lower seats, and new facilities for players and coaches.
The track that's now around the field would be placed elsewhere, perhaps around the soccer field.
There would not be any luxury boxes. That's something the stadium committee decided against.
Many of the regents expressed support for the plan, although Stanley Barer said he thinks it will be a tough sell, especially given that other groups such as the Mariners might want some of those tax dollars.
Craig Cole said he probably was the "hardest sell" among the regents, but he thought it was a good idea.
"I think it's really a people's park for a variety of reasons," he said.
Evans and Woodward noted that about 100 events take place at the stadium each year, including commencement.
Marty Brown, chief lobbyist for Gov. Christine Gregoire, said the governor has not seen a proposal, so it's too soon to say whether she would support it.
The university hopes to get legislative approval this session and begin construction after the 2008 football season.
The UW would request approval for the Huskies to play at Qwest Field in 2009 and return to Husky Stadium in 2010. It hopes the project would be finished before Sound Transit starts work on an underground light-rail station at the stadium.

I remember you mentioning the wiki idea before, sounds great to me. Will we have to always post a link to the source of the news (to discourage people giving out "premium" information) or will it be mostly un-moderated and just a true wiki where anyone can post anything?
landing spot. will be interesting to see how he does.

Police recover stolen itemsDecember 11,2012MONTPELIER Vermont State Police say a search of a stolen car being used by a fugitive helped recover items stolen in Vermont and New Hampshire in recent months.
Police say 28-year-old Michael Hoehl repainted a stolen car four or five times so police wouldnt recognize the vehicle, allegedly stolen from Rivendell High School in Orford, N.H., in October.
He was arrested Tuesday after police spotted the vehicle in Newbury. Troopers allegedly chased Hoehl into the woods and he displayed a handgun, but he was apprehended without injury.
The Burlington Free Press reported that when police searched the vehicle they found, among other items, GPS units, a radar detector, assorted professional sports collector cards, tools, a pocket watch, foreign currency, an antique chalice and a model of a 1955-era vehicle.MORE IN This Just InBENNINGTON For the first time, all the choral students of the Southwest Vermont Supervisory...

Telling us off directly, going over our head and appealing to Lowetide. He has made complaints via every channel. Well played.
And so this Episode of NationRadio is dedicated to -30-. She's up bright and early for you Sir. To everyone else - this Japanese "music video" that our main man @ounyea tweeted at us earlier goes out to you.

Party like it is your last night could take on a whole new meaning tonight if you Harold Camping. Camping, a preacher from Oakland, California, is confidently predicting the Second Coming of the Lord. At about 6pm, on May 21st (yes 6 p.m in every time zone strangely enough) he reckons two per cent of the world's population will be immediately "raptured" to Heaven; the rest of us will get sent straight to the Other Place.
The scary thing about Camping, is that he isn't alone. Every day he speaks to his followers via the Family Radio Network. They own 66 stations across the States and they are funded solely by donations from listeners, and currently they have a whopping 120 million in assets. ( I thought the Nation rocked when we raised 2,000 to go sent Brownlee to the draft a few years ago.)
I guess Sir Wanye is going to have up his game to get more than three people listening to his "Wanye's world vision hour" Internet podcast. According to Camping my chances aren't good I'll be "raptured" (whatever the hell that means), so I and all of you, because let's be honest, none of us fit into Camping's 2%, will try to go out with a bang this weekend.
