The art of GPS: Secret corpse flights, pizza boy delivery routes and the daily commute revealed in never-before-seen side of America
Extraordinary pictures show America as it has never been seen before.
These stunning CGI images reveal what the nation looks like from the skies, and how its transport and communication infrastructures work to power the vast nation on a daily basis.
Everything from the routes taken by Manhattan pizza delivery drivers on a Friday night to Domino's Pizza truck movement across the country are replicated in breathtaking detail.
Scroll down for video...

Snack time: GPS trails reveal the routes taken by cycling pizza delivery riders on one Friday night in Manhattan. Each rider's shift lasts eight to nine hours, in which time they can deliver between 30 and 40 pizzas all over the city
There are also illustrations of New York's multi-layered morning rush-hour commute - with GPS trackers showing the combined ferries, rail and bus services that criss-cross the city.
The trail of flights carrying at least one passenger in the cargo hold - showing the transportation of dead bodies - is also revealed.
And it clearly shows many deceased retirees being repatriated to their home states from the U.S. retirement mecca state of Florida.
Using the latest satellite technology and innovations in aerial photography, the pictures will be shown for the first time on PBS show 'America Revealed'.
Trading: The U.S. exports beef on a vast scale to the rest of the world, but at the same time imports $86billion worth of food. This image shows what comes in and what goes out, foodwise, of the nation

Up in the air: Flight data for the 50,000 planes that carry 2million passengers daily across the U.S., shows how airways connect every corner of the country. The major airport hubs are clearly visible
Presenter Yul Kwon jumps out of aeroplanes, climbs up energy towers, accompanies a farmer on a crop harvest and rides with cabbies to give a surprising view of how an incredibly vast and complex country like America actually works.
Richard Kingsbury, PBS UK's general manager, said: 'This fantastic mini-series uses the latest technology to produce spectacular visuals of the way America works.
Time to work: New York's multi-layered morning rush hour detailed by the combined pathways ferries (orange dots), commuter rail services, (green purple and red) and the bus services (blue) that criss-cross the city picking out its famous grid pattern

Fast food: Truck movements supplying Domino's Pizza network, which shows how pizza customers in Manhattan are fed ingredients supplied via a supply hub in Connecticut. That hub is in turn supplied Pizza dough, peppers, mushrooms and tomatoes by fleets of satellite tracked, refrigerated trucks
'From the migration of salmon to the journeys of pizza deliveries, the series is packed with new ways of looking at a familiar country that will fascinate audiences on both sides of the Atlantic.'
Nick Catliff, executive producer, added: 'In this show we've taken the aerial photography, CGI and data visualisation techniques that we developed for the BBC's 'Britain from Above' to a whole new level.
Powering up: The U.S. electricity seen as never before, with its cities connected through a vast network
Unemployment: The number of job losses in the U.S. chronicled in this stunning image
Linked in: The vast array of towers across the U.S. that enable almost anyone to communicate or connect to the internet, wirelessly

West Valley man sentenced to prison for raping woman in restaurant bathroom
SALT LAKE CITY — A West Valley man who admitted to following a woman into a restaurant bathroom and violently raping her has been sentenced to prison.
Justin Lloyd Martinez, 27, was sentenced Monday to at least five years and up to life in prison for rape, a first-degree felony. Martinez pleaded guilty to the charge as part of an agreement with prosecutors in November. In exchange, additional charges of aggravated kidnapping, a first-degree felony, and driving under the influence, a class B misdemeanor, were dismissed.
It was after 3 a.m. on Oct. 27, 2013, when Martinez followed the woman into the bathroom at a West Valley Burger King, 5610 W. 3500 South, while her friends went to the drive-thru to order food. According to charging documents, Martinez waited for the woman outside a bathroom stall and grabbed her when she came out, punching her three times in the face when she attempted to push him away and dug her fingernails into his face.
The woman said Martinez threatened to beat her if she didn't stay quiet, slammed her head against the wall and stuck his fingers down her throat to keep her from screaming as he sexually assaulted her, charges state.
"I put up a pretty good fight for as long as I could," the woman told police.
The woman's friend became worried and entered the bathroom to look for her and could see her lying on the floor in a stall with another set of feet nearby, charges state. Martinez ran from the bathroom and was later arrested.
Martinez told police he had been drinking that night and went into the restaurant after crashing his truck nearby.

Native Plants
Q. Who is Mr. Smarty Plants?
A: There are those who suspect Wildflower Center volunteers are the culpable and capable culprits. Yet, others think staff members play some, albeit small, role. You can torture us with your plant questions, but we will never reveal the Green Guru's secret identity.
Did you know you can access the Native Plant Information Network with your web-enabled smartphone?

Topic: Deer Resistant, Shade Tolerant, Shrubs
Title: Deer resistant, shade tolerant foundation plants for Kerrville TX
Answered by: Barbara Medford
QUESTION:I'm looking for foundation plants for shade that are deer resistant. Tall as well as medium height.
The first problem with your request is the "deer-resistant" stipulation. We have a list of deer-resistant plants; please read this disclaimer paragraph from the top of the list:
"Deer Resistant Species
Few plants are completely deer resistant. Several factors influence deer browsing including the density of the deer population, environmental conditions such as drought, and plant palatability. Deer tend to avoid plants with aromatic foliage, tough leathery and/or hairy or prickly leaves or plants with milky latex or sap. Try using some of the plants listed here to minimize deer damage to your landscape."
Further complicating this problem is the fact that there are only 346 plants on that list, and that constitutes the native deer-resistant plants for North America, including Canada but not including Mexico. By the time we sort that list down to not only Texas, but Central Texas, there will be very few choices. First, we will go to our list of Deer Resistant Species and then, using the Sidebar on the right-hand side of that page, we will select on Texas for the state and "part shade" for Light Requirement so that we will get a list of all plants in Texas having exhibited some deer resistance and shade tolerant. We will not stipulate Height, because there are several ranges and the webpage on each will indicate the expected mature height. Caution: You will need to read the whole webpage on each plant; some of the indicators will be "Highly Resistant" under deer resistance, some will only be "Moderately Resistant."

Editorial: We've been cheated
Relevant offers
Don't Rolf Harris and Lou Vincent look like different people now.
OPINION: Rolf Harris: National icon once. Depraved manipulator now. And a serial one at that.
Lou Vincent: Classy with a cricket bat, fantastic fielder. Confirmed sports cheat.
How much, though, should their falls from grace affect us personally?
It is their reputations they have ruined. They will pay the price, not us.
Well, not quite. They have cheated us too. Vincent in particular, as we have supported the Black Caps, either in person or from afar. Who would have thought one of our own was playing against us? Was playing for his own pocket? Our support then was misplaced, undermined.
And now as New Zealanders he has soiled all our reputations. Walk into an Aussie bar for confirmation. And now we cast about looking at other players, so we have also been cheated out of our trust in the game.
Australians will have similar feelings about Harris. They proudly applauded him on the world stage, only now to have been embarrassed by him. So, some collective shame, and anger too.
And now the spotlight falls on all of us. We cannot do anything about these two individuals - systems are in place to do that - but our united condemnation of them sends some message to others in similar situations.
We are angry. We have no sympathy. They have cheated us all.
Another thing: The Timaru District Council faces a catch-22 situation with its eternal light atop the clock tower. After being replaced on Monday, it has gone out again.
The trouble now is that it is a rather expensive lightbulb to replace, as the pole it is on can no longer be lowered. It takes someone in a crane to get up to it and cranes do not come cheap. But the light itself is also significant, shining in remembrance to those who lost their lives in war.
It is not right that it does not shine.
It is important then to find out why it has gone out, and put in a bulb that is going to last for, well, not for eternity, but considerably longer than one day.

Well done Kathmandu! Good to see another Kiwi company making headway in the difficult retail sector
Listed retailer Kathmandu (NZX:KMD) has achieved a big profit increase despite tough times for the retail sector.
The adventure clothing and outdoor company has announced a net profit of $39.1 million for the year ended July 31, up 55% on last year's $25.2 million profit (excluding IPO costs).
The profit improvement came on the back of a 32.0% increase in ebit to $64.0 million.
It also achieved record sales of $306.1 million, a 24.5% increase from last year, with same store sales growth of 15.7% (12.9% at constant exchange rates).
"We have achieved double digit same store sales growth in both Australia and New Zealand, and improved margins despite the well publicised difficult economic environment and the resulting impact on consumer demand in all our markets", says Kathmandu chief executive Peter Halkett.
"Our 14 new stores opened during the year have all performed very well and we see continued growth opportunities for Kathmandu as we expand our retail footprint and introduce new products and an updated brand identity to the market over the next year."
He says, "As we commented in the trading update last month, we made a substantial investment in inventory in FY11, which was a key factor in Kathmandu's sales growth throughout the year.
"We were able to meet demand throughout our three key promotional periods, whereas in the previous year we were challenged by limited stock availability, particularly during our Winter sale.
"We also benefited from colder weather patterns through the second half year, especially in Australia for our Easter sale."
Commenting on Kathmandu's outlook, Mr Halkett says, "our key growth strategies are working and delivered solid sales and profit growth this year despite a tough environment, so the 2012 financial year is really about more of the same".

Canberra Men's Christian Convention
6 August 2016
At men's convention 2016 we are opening the majestic book of Isaiah to explore the theme of trusting God. This ancient text serves as the opening scene for the world-shaking themes the prophets will deliver for hundreds of years.
Men's convention will be a day filled with exceptional and relevant Bible teaching, time to worship God in song, in conversations with new friends and old, and in prayerful reflection on His powerful word.
Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The Lord, the Lord himself, is my strength and my defense; he has become my salvation.
Isaiah 12 v 2
Keynote Speaker
"There is something majestic about the book of Isaiah. Over the years of reading Isaiah I've come to see that its grandeur can mask its simplicity. In whatever period of history, in whatever military crisis, in whatever spiritual confusion, the book of Isaiah tells us all to trust in the Lord.
Its message is that in hidden, surprising ways the Lord is always at work to save people. The more we can know and love what he is doing, the easier it will be to trust him. It's a simple message with grand implications."
Kirk Patston
Kirk Patston is the author of "Isaiah – Surprising Salvation" and an experienced Bible teacher, lecturing at SMBC and working in his church in the Blue Mountains. He is well placed to explore the theme of trusting God within Isaiah. Kirk's preaching style will allow time for you to ponder the complexities of Isaiah and digest what the text is saying. He is able to help us understand the relevance of these ancient words to our lives today.
Kirk is married to Lisa and the father of two teenage boys. He is the Director of Postgraduate Studies at Sydney Missionary & Bible College. He studied Speech Pathology at the University of Sydney and worked in Speech Pathology for a number of years. He then did theological studies before being ordained and working in Presbyterian Ministry. Kirk has special interests in the Old Testament wisdom literature, Isaiah, the relationship between the gospel and culture, and ministry with people with disabilities.
In that day they will say,
"Surely this is our God;
we trusted in him, and he saved us.
This is the Lord, we trusted in him;
let us rejoice and be glad in his salvation."
Isaiah 25 v 9
We are offering seminars again in 2016. You will be able to choose a seminar to attend with about 150 other men. These smaller groups will allow us to offer more specific content. We'll ask you to indicate your seminar preference closer to the conference date for planning purposes.
Being a man on the mission field
Dan Evers
Dan will look to share some of his experiences personally as he worked out what it meant to be a man serving in ministry for the six years that he was in Hong Kong.
He will share about some of the joys, pressures, temptations and challenges he faced personally and how God worked in these things.
You may be challenged to consider going to places around the globe where people are in real need of hearing the gospel.
Teaching Scripture in schools
Phil Burnett and Matt Grocott
When parents, let alone kids, have no idea what you're talking about when you say you teach "Scripture" it is even more apparent the importance of teaching kids about Jesus. At this elective you'll learn what "SUPAClub" is, some examples of the impact on kids, parents and carers and how you can be involved and support this vital ministry.
Certainty for Eternity
Mark Gilbert
People from a Catholic background make up the largest religious group in Australia. Nearly 30% of our nation identify as Catholic and they educate 1 in 4 students in the country. Despite this, very few go to mass regularly any more. In many parts of the world, Catholics are going to protestant churches in search of God. In South America, evangelical churches have grown to over 20% of the population. In North America 50% of Catholics that stop going to mass end up in protestant churches, yet here in Australia hardly any Catholics make the switch. Sadly Catholics in Australia that stop going to mass don't end up going anywhere. This seminar will explore what Jesus has to offer Catholics in Australia.

A shoplifting call led to a drug arrest for a LaFollette man.
On Aug. 23, around 6:30 p.m., Jacksboro Officer Josh Carroll was dispatched to Wal-Mart on the report of someone shoplifting, according to Carroll's report.
Upon arrival, Carroll found that Adam Christopher Kitts, 19, of Cedar Creek Road, LaFollette, had allegedly taken $58.39 worth of merchandise concealed on his person and passed the last point of sale without paying, according to a Wal-Mart employee.
Carroll then asked Kitts if he had anything illegal on him, to which Kitts allegedly replied he had about 32 pain pills in his pant's pocket, the Jacksboro Police report said.
Carroll allegedly found 25 round-green pills, believed to be schedule II for resale, in a small metal container, located in Kitts' watch pocket of his jeans. Carroll also found a small plastic bag in his right front pocket containing four white, round pills believed to be non-narcotic pain medication, Carroll's report said.
Kitts could not show proof of prescription for any of the medication. Kitts was also in possession of a cut straw in his wallet and a hollowed out ink pen in his left rear pocket, the arrest report said. He allegedly stated to Carroll these were used for sniffing pills, according to the Jacksboro Police report. Kitts was placed under arrest and transported to the county jail.
Kitts was charged with possession of schedule II controlled substance, theft of property under $500, possession of drug paraphernalia, possession of a legend drug. He was released on Aug. 24 on $2,500 bond. His court date is set for Sept. 11.

Guzman, T., M. Pirog, and Kristin Seefeldt. 2013. "Social Policy: What Have We Learned?" Policy Studies Journal, 41: S53-S70.
In this review, we focus on current research on the major welfare program in the United States, food security programs, Social Security, Social Security Disability, Unemployment Insurance, child support, and tax provisions such as the Earned Income Tax Credit that provide substantial financial support for low-income households and other potentially vulnerable populations such as the elderly and the unemployed. Since many of these are programs specifically targeted at poor and low-income individuals, we also describe how poverty is defined in the United States, update readers on the ongoing debate over poverty measurement, and provide some comparison to how it is measured outside the United States. Looking across the various social policies addressed in this review and the associated recent research, one clear theme emerges: the United States is very concerned about work disincentives potentially embedded within these programs.

Olympic sailing venue starts 'Sail for a Fiver' Academy at Weymouth
by Sail-World on 9 Apr 2013
Seb Coe visiting the Weymouth and Portland National Sailing Academy - Geoff Moore - Dorset Media Service . ..
In the afterglow of the 2012 London Olympics, the Weymouth and Portland National Sailing Academy (WPNSA) is making the success of the Olympic legacy a personal goal, by helping to inspire the sportsmen and women of the future.
The Olympic sailing venue is making a conscious effort to ensure the Olympians of the future have the best facilities and training available to them. Having hosted youth sailing events and training for a number of years, the Academy have always had a passion for getting youngsters into the sport, but following on from the Olympics, this focus has shifted up a gear with a great emphasis now placed on encouraging children to take up the sport of sailing.
In association with the Chesil Trust charity, WPNSA have facilitated a 'Sail for a Fiver' scheme which enables schools in Dorset and the surrounding counties to bring classes of children to the venue for half day training courses, with the cost at just £5 per child, although the scheme costs more to deliver, the difference being funded by the Chesil Trust, with support form the Academy. So far over 10,000 children have got out on the water for the first time through this scheme, and the aim is to continue to give as many children as possible this opportunity.
There are a number of youth sailing classes who frequently utilise the facilities and idyllic sailing waters at WPNSA including the Optimist, Topper, Cadet, 29er, RS Tera and Laser Classes.
The Optimist Class, boasting the largest number of participants in any youth sailing dinghy in the UK have held numerous events and training at WPNSA including National Championships, Squad Selections and Training camps.
Simon Rogers, Chairman IOCA (UK) commented; 'It is always guaranteed good racing when holding an event at WPNSA, the facilities more than cater for what can be 500+ Optimists and their parents. The Optimist Class has long been using WPNSA as a venue for events, but having watched the Olympic Games take place there is certainly an inspiring element to it. Youngsters as young as eight years old can be a part of an event at the same venue where Olympic Sailors are carrying out their training simultaneously. Next month we are holding the 2013 Optimist Selector Event, to determine who will represent Great Britain at the World and European Championships this year.'
The Topper Class has recently held an all-girls training day from the Academy, something common within youth classes aiming to provide a fun and healthy learning environment for girls to develop their sailing skills whilst providing some active role models within the sport to encourage greater female participation.
Lord Sebastian Coe has high praises for the Academy:
'Weymouth and Portland National Sailing Academy successfully hosted the world's elite sailing and windsurfing athletes for the Olympic and Paralympic Games, one of the greatest shows on earth. The award winning venue has now entered its new phase in life as a multisport facility for everyone to enjoy. The Academy will continue to inspire new generations of water enthusiasts both locally and globally. Offering facilities for beginners' right through to high profile competitors, the sporting venue caters to both abled and disabled competitors. With a strong commitment to sustainable practices the WPNSA is ensuring that a natural environment is maintained as the ultimate water sports venue.'
Upcoming youth events at WPNSA include Squad Training for the Topper and RS Tera Class, the 2013 Optimist Selector event, and the RS Tera National Championships. The sportsmen and women of the future are being greatly inspired by the lasting 2012 Olympic legacy; with the Academy making a heartfelt effort to keep the momentum and celebration of sport in Great Britain alive.

A man and a little boy entered a barbershop together. The man enjoyed the full treatment: shave, shampoo, manicure and haircut. Then he placed the boy in the chair and said, "I'm going to buy a green tie to wear for the parade. I'll be back in a few minutes." When the boy's haircut was completed, the man still hadn't returned. The barber said to the boy, "Looks like your daddy's forgotten all about you." "That wasn't my daddy," said the boy. "He just walked up, took me by the hand, and said, 'Come on, son, we're gonna get free haircuts.'"

Forex news, GBPUSD. BNY Mellon experts believe that the Bank of England will inevitably face problems, caused by the increase of British currency.

When it comes to trading Forex via a micro broker, traders don't have to invest thousands of dollars as the starting capital. This is one of the biggest competitive edges those FX brokers have when it comes to FX rookies getting their feet wet in FX trading. Indeed, few rookies can really afford to start trading big right off the bat. However, it is not recommended to start big if you are just getting your feet wet in trading financial markets. This is where cent brokers (or micro brokers) come in handy. They allow rookies to trade currencies and improve their skills while more advanced traders can test their strategies without having to risk big money.
These days, Forex trading has become one of the best sources of income of all kinds. For some people who trade Forex professionally on a daily basis, this is a major source of income. For others, this is a source of extra income to some extent.
A famous international FX broker named ForexTime (FXTM) has become one of the biggest newsmakers of the month. First off, the broker started a brand-new multi-level loyalty program and opened a new office in London. At he same time, the company added Persian and some other languages to the list of supported languages and introduced a new payment system to Russian clients. On top of that, FXTM gave away $100 000 as the prize pool to the winners of the Forex Legends contest and launched FX Invest, an unprecedented project embracing some of the world's best financial analysts. All of that was done in a matter of 4 weeks! Apparently, that kind of intensity in introducing innovative solutions has been a pleasant surprise for hundreds of thousands of clients from over 180 countries of the world. Most of those clients leaving their feedback underline the fact that those changes have have a positive impact on their trading and investment performance.

Something notable happened last October: for the first time, DDR2 memory became more expensive than DDR3. The former status quo returned a few weeks later, but now, DigiTimes reports that DDR3 has once again become the cheaper memory type in spot pricing charts.
The data come courtesy of memory market research firm DRAMeXchange, which tracks pricing for the two memory types (among others) in various configurations. Today, DRAMeXchange shows both branded and "effectively tested" 1Gb DDR3-1333 chips cost about 8-10 cents less than their DDR2-800 counterparts on average, placing them at $3.05-3.07.
That's when you look at spot pricing, at least. DRAMeXchange's contract pricing numbers still give DDR2 the advantage: 1Gb DDR2-800 chips on that scale cost $2.31 on average, and 2GB modules are $40. Compare that to DDR3 prices of $2.50 and $43, respectively, and DDR2 still looks like the better deal.
What about retail? Newegg's cheapest 4GB DDR2-800 desktop memory kit starts at $81.99 before mail-in rebates and shipping, while similar kits of DDR3-1333 RAM start at $94.99. Presumably, it'll take a little while for changes in chip pricing to impact branded modules listed online. Still, DDR3 looks unambiguously pricier right now for consumers.
