EAGLE - Comedy Night at the Bowlmor returns to The Back Bowl in Eagle Saturday night at 8 p.m., with the return engagement of popular Comedy Works headliner, Deacon Gray.
After repeated accolades for previous shows, Gray returns to the Comedy Night series for his fifth appearance in as many years. Denver's Westword magazine crowned him Denver's "Best Comedy Guru" and, as one of the tops among the region's stand-up artists, he now coordinates all comic acts for Denver's top comedy club, The Comedy Works.
He absolutely floors his audience with his incredible delivery and somewhat weird musing on life and his improvisational style has been compared to "a runaway mind train...no two shows are ever alike!" His recently released album, Revival of the Fittest, Gray supports his reputation as an act that can appeal to both broader sensibilities as well as those more inclined towards dark, intellectual humor. He also proves that, ultimately, he needs to be seen and heard by more people.
According to owner and general manager Joe Gonzalez, Gray has developed quite a local following.
"Over the course of the years we've been doing live comedy, Deacon has consistently be one of the top acts we've seen," he said. "This will be his fifth appearance with us in as many years."
Gray's well oiled delivery and presence have not gone unnoticed by the elite among his peers, earning him gigs as opener for some of the top acts in comedy, including: Chris Rock, Jeff Foxworthy, Drew Carey, Paula Poundstone, Craig Ferguson, Dave Chappelle and a host of others. Perhaps the best measure of his abilities is the respect he has garnered among his peers, many of whom refer to him as "the comic's comic."
Opening for Gray is Matt Baca. Making his first appearance at the Comedy Night series, Baca has been plying his craft for a number of years in Denver's Comedy Works and the Improv. Taking plenty of hilarious material from his day job as a teacher, Baca's comedic abilities have earned him invitations to comedy festivals and contests across the country, including National Lampoon's Comedy Pop-Off, the Boston Comedy Festival and America's Got Talent Latino Style.
Tickets are $15 on the day of the show. Groups can take advantage of special pricing for groups of 8 or more. Tickets can be purchased in person at The Back Bowl, or by phone with a credit card.

Natively, the Horizon was a machine with on 5.25" drives that did not
support 8" drives. It would help to know what 8" controller has been
added, and you should understand that this addition made the system
non-standard. It might be best, for starters, to revert to the original
North-Star configuration (5.25" diskettes) and get that working first.
The instructions in the manual all relate to that mode and may be
totally wrong or inapplicable to the non-standard configuration using 8"
ZCPR3 is an operating system, but the disks labeled ZCPR3 could be boot
disks, or they could be source code. There's really no way to know if a
disk is a boot disk or not. Not by looking at it, and, really not even
by examining it in a working system unless you really get into a binary
hex examination of the contents of the boot sectors.
The problem with the Soroc looks like a problem in the horizontal output
section of the monitor [In other words, as a terminal, it's probably
working]. But keep in mind that you can use a PC as a terminal by
running a terminal program (and Hyper Terminal comes with Windows, and
it will work for this purpose). In fact, my preferred "terminals" for
classic computers are older $5 to $20 laptops running an older version
of Windows (sometimes even Windows 3.1, but it really doesn't matter)
and using Procomm or Hype Terminal. It's just a matter of size and
weight, but for me, using a "real" older CRT terminal just doesn't make
[One other thought on the Soroc, be sure it's online ... if you are
seeing what you are typing, it may well be off line, displaying what you
type but not even sending it to the serial port. You can test that,
also, with a PC (connect the PC to the Soroc and see if they "talk" to
each other, merely typing on either one should display what's being
typed on the other.]
The normal setup is 9600 baud, 8 bit word, 1 stop bit, and any arbitrary
setting for parity (which is normally ignored; but "none" is most common).

What are you most proud of? My first successful stitch-in-the-ditch effort. I've always done outlines 1/8 - 1/4 inch off the seams because I couldn't successfully stay in the ditch. Ann showed me how it's done and also talked about using clear thread, which helps hide the occasional slip. Also my pebble/bubble stitching around the entire border.
I like your advice - and your quilt, very much!!

I am new to WordPress and put a category in my blog that I do not want.When I delete/apply it remains...help..?
I am new to WordPress and put a category in my blog that I do not want.When I delete/apply it remains...help..?
Is it still listed on the "Categories" page in the admin area, or does it just appear on your site ?
Thamk you for replying.I have four posts on my page and it appears in all of them,it also has it in admin area as a category and when I tick the delete box and apply nothing happens...?I must say this is the first time I have used WordPress and am not that formiliar with using code.
Is the category you are trying to delete the default category ?
I do not believe it is.If I let you look at my site will it be easier for you to help me...?
Yes, I think it will be.
Reviews of Debt Relief Companies is the category that will not delete,this is the Url to the site http://wp.me/1vI4T
Sorry for the delay getting back to you, the last few days have been pretty hectic.
I'll get onto this tomorrow - without fail !
Just thought I'd let you know.
I've had a look at your site, but the categories are not showing up.
What are the exact steps you took to delete the category ?
Also, can you list all of your categories & indicate the one you tried to delete & also which one is set as the default.
If you have access to the dashboard there is only one category listed,I highlighted the name and hit delete,nothing happened.
On the page there are 4 posts at the head of each one there is a icon of a folder an the words 'Reviews of Debt Relief Companies'
I would not mind it being there so much if it could actually go to the review page which is http://www.sandysbestreviewscentral.com/debtrelief/
If you can make it go to the review page or delete it entirely I would be most grateful.
If there is only one category listed then this should be "Uncategorized", and this can't be deleted.
I'm a bit confused because you said in your original post that the category you can't delete is one you created.
Also, I can't see the folder icon or the words you mention.
It might be easier if you could provide screenshots.
If you are looking at the right site I dont know why you cannot see it but the site is http://wp.me/1vI4T and the blog address is debt-relief-specialists.com/blog. I sent this address to a friend of mine and he could go straight to it,Paul
Just to be clear:
When you delete a single category you move your cursor over the title of the category, & some options will then appear immediately below the title. These are "Edit", "Quick Edit" & "Delete". You then click the "Delete" option.
Is this what you meant when you said you highlighted the name and hit delete ?
I am prepared to send you a snapshot if I knew how to do that...?
there is only one category listed
You have to have at least one category and cannot delete the default one (you can rename it). You probably renamed your category because it's ID is 1 (the default category)
If you don't assign a Post to a category WordPress will assign it to your Default category.
You can set the Default Post Category to any category under Settings >Writing
Remove this from your theme's index.php to remove the category from your front page:

<img style="vertical-align:-5px;" alt="categories" src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/category.gif" height="16" width="16" /> <?php the_category(', ') ?>
and this from your single.php:
<img style="vertical-align:-5px;" alt="categories" src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/category.gif" height="16" width="16" /> <?php the_category(', ') ?> |
It appears that you can't add images to posts on this forum.
Not to worry. To create a screenshot, just hit the "PrtScn" button on your keyboard - this saves a screenshot to your clipboard.
In Windows, go to "Start", then "All Programs", "Accessories" and finally "Paint". Press and hold down the "Ctrl" button on your keyboard and press "V" - the screenshot will be pasted into Paint.
In Paint, go to "File" then "Save". You now have an image of the screenshot saved on your computer.
I've created a throwaway e-mail address so you can e-mail me the image: firstname.lastname@example.com.

Large Wind Plants Planned for the Dakotas and Maryland
Four wind projects are currently planned or proposed that will add a total of 80 megawatts of capacity in the Dakotas and might add as much as 141 megawatts of capacity in Maryland.
In the Dakotas, Basin Electric Power Cooperative has reached an agreement with FPL Energy LLC to build two 40-megawatt wind plants, one in each state. The North Dakota facility will be located near Edgeley, about 30 miles south of Jamestown, and the South Dakota wind plant will be near Highmore, located just east of the center of the state. Central Power Electric Cooperative, a member and part owner of Basin Electric, will build an 11-mile transmission line to connect the North Dakota wind plant to an existing substation.
FPL Energy will build, own, and operate the two wind plants, each of which will be the largest in its state. When the plants start producing power in late 2003, Basin Electric will buy all the power and distribute it to its member utilities. The two plants will produce enough electricity to power 25,000 homes in the Dakotas. See the FPL Energy press release.
Basin Electric and Central Power are currently building a 2.6-megawatt wind facility near Minot in northwestern North Dakota. The Minot Air Force Base has committed to buy most of the electricity produced by the wind plant. See the Basin Electric press release.
In Maryland, two companies have each filed applications with the Public Service Commission (PSC) to build wind facilities in the state. Clipper Windpower, Inc. is proposing to build a 101-megawatt wind plant in Garrett County, located in the far-western corner of the state. Savage Mountain Wind Force, LLC is proposing to build a 40-megawatt wind plant that apparently straddles both Garrett County and its easterly neighbor, Allegany County. Both applications were filed in late August; the PSC will hold pre-hearing conferences for both proposals on October 8th. See the Maryland PSC Hearing Schedule.
Meanwhile, the proposed Cape Wind project off the coast of Massachusetts is getting a little help from the Massachusetts Technology Collaborative (MTC). In early September, the MTC unveiled a comprehensive public education and outreach initiative focused on "elevating the public discourse" regarding the project. See the MTC press release.

Philately & Stamps
Collecting stamps is a fun, rewarding and inexpensive hobby. The world's first stamp, Penny Black issued in Great Britain on 6 May, 1840 is highly regarded by stamp collectors. The most expensive stamp in the world is the misprinted 1855 Swedish Treskilling Yellow stamp which was said to be sold at auction for £1.6m in 1996.
However, stamps are not just collectibles. It is also a wholesome hobby that can foster family ties as it brings family members, especially young families, together in a quest to learn more about a country's history, nature, art, culture and science.

Spartanburg, S.C. - Senior midfielder Gonzalo de Mujica (Buenos Aires, Argentina) put home a penalty kick goal with 47 seconds remaining in the first overtime period to lift the Stetson men's soccer team (5-5-2, 2-1-1 Atlantic Sun) to a key 3-2 conference victory Sunday afternoon at USC Upstate (5-7-1, 2-3-1 A-Sun). Freshman midfielder Elias Beates (Winter Park, Fla.) scored his first career goal for the Hatters as well.
Junior defender Luis Ocejo (Mexico City, Mexico) got the match off to a great start for Stetson almost immediately as he scored in the third minute as a corner kick was backheeled to Ocejo, who put it home for the 1-0 lead. Sophomore midfielder Steven Saballos (Miami, Fla.) and junior midfielder Jonathan Mendoza (Bogota, Colombia) assisted on that goal.
Jan Wienholt's first goal of the season tied the match for the Spartans in the 17th minute; Timo Foerster and Dave Musambi assisted on that goal and also did the same on Derek Dearmond's 22nd minute goal that put the home team ahead 2-1. Dearmond's first goal of the year came off a 40-yard cross.
The scoring in the first half wasn't done yet as Beates took a Mendoza pass and beat Spartans goalkeeper Jason McCabe for his first collegiate goal in the 39th minute.
The remainder of the half and the entire second half would pass without further scoring, and it appeared the first overtime would do the same, but at the 99:13 mark, the referee called USC Upstate for a foul inside the box, leading to an automatic penalty kick attempt. De Mujica stepped to the spot and delivered the walkoff win on his third goal of the year. The Hatters have gone to overtime three matches in a row and four times in their last five outings; they are 2-0-2 in those situations over that span and 2-1-2 on the year in extra time.
Stetson dominated the shot count 28-6 as sophomore goalkeeper Andreas Schnabl (Blaichach, Germany) needed to make only one save on the afternoon. McCabe did a terrific job keeping his Spartans in the match, recording 11 saves.
The Hatters return home next weekend to host Belmont (7:00 pm Friday) and Lipscomb (12:00 pm Sunday) in A-Sun action. Live Stats and Hatter Vision will be available at GoHatters.com.

I'm taking a short break from Mummy Mentoring Month to host the Totally Money.com blog carnival for this week.
Anybody who is visiting my site for the first time, please do check out the Mummy Mentoring Month page, as we have a huge charity auction of coaching and mentoring services, with a few other lots thrown in for good measure (holiday in the Cotswolds anyone?). Bids welcome until 31st March and all money to charity. On this blog I have also had guest posts from different businessmums all throughout March so please do take a look around and have a good read.
This blog carnival is absolutely enormous – it's probably the longest blog post I ever wrote. I'm completely overwhelmed with the number and variety of posts – fantastic work by all concerned!
Motivating Mum is aimed at mums who are combining family with starting a small business from home. For both of these activities it is a good idea to keep a tight handle on the family finances. The blogs below have a huge number of different approaches – from the fun to the totally serious. I have really enjoyed reading through these posts and have picked up a few hints and tips along the way – I hope you will too!
For my Editor's picks I have concentrated on those that will appeal to my core readership. So they are fun , lighthearted, with a family theme, and if possible, applicable to the UK. Here they are:
- Teaching Your Kids about Money: by Pam Whitlock at The MoneyTrail Blog. My kids really need to learn how to delay gratification – this is a great reinder for me.
- The Art of DIY by Michelle at See Debt Run. I love this image of a family trip to a DIY shop. I have been this family – have you?

Not only did I manage to spend a lot of money, I also have very little to show for it. One major expense was a vacation I took last year, but that doesn't come close to accounting for all the wasted money. A bigger expense that I need to accept is dining out and take out food.

Prabhat Awasthi: Basically, high returns from largecaps are going to be very difficult from these levels. So if you are looking at high returns, you will obviously have to tilt towards midcaps. There is a bunch of midcaps we like, a few of them have been destroyed by policy actions, like gas names have sort of evaporated.
For example, we really like Mcleod Russell because we think there is a global cycle in the offing and there is a big benefit happening. But you will get stock specific when the overall macro is very weak and you are not really bidding on an economy trend to make your returns, you are probably bidding on company-specific factors, some narrow industries which will do well in an overall environment where things are slow.

Simple Definition of nepotism
: the unfair practice by a powerful person of giving jobs and other favors to relatives
Examples of nepotism in a sentence
Nepotism has hurt the company.
Did You Know?
During his papacy from 1471-1484, Sixtus IV granted many special favors to members of his family, in particular his nephews. This practice of papal favoritism was carried on by his successors, and in 1667 it was the subject of Gregorio Leti's book Il Nepotismo di Roma-titled in the English translation, The History of the Popes' Nephews. Shortly after the book's appearance, nepotism began to be used in English for the showing of special favor or unfair preference to any relative by someone in any position of power, be it ecclesiastical or not. (The "nep-" spelling is from nepote, a 17th-century variant of Italian nipote, meaning "nephew.")
Origin and Etymology of nepotism
French népotisme, from Italian nepotismo, from nepote nephew, from Latin nepot-, nepos grandson, nephew — more at nephew
First Known Use: 1670
Other Government and Politics Terms

Structure and dynamics of AMPA receptor GluA2 in resting, pre-open, and desensitized states.
Vollum Institute, Oregon Health and Science University, 3181 SW Sam Jackson Park Road, Portland, OR 97239, USA; Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Oregon Health and Science University, 3181 SW Sam Jackson Park Road, Portland, OR 97239, USA. Electronic address: firstname.lastname@example.com.
Ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs) mediate the majority of fast excitatory signaling in the nervous system. Despite the profound importance of iGluRs to neurotransmission, little is known about the structures and dynamics of intact receptors in distinct functional states. Here, we elucidate the structures of the intact GluA2 AMPA receptor in an apo resting/closed state, in an activated/pre-open state bound with partial agonists and a positive allosteric modulator, and in a desensitized/closed state in complex with fluorowilliardiine. To probe the conformational properties of these states, we carried out double electron-electron resonance experiments on cysteine mutants and cryoelectron microscopy studies. We show how agonist binding modulates the conformation of the ligand-binding domain "layer" of the intact receptors and how, upon desensitization, the receptor undergoes large conformational rearrangements of the amino-terminal and ligand-binding domains. We define mechanistic principles by which to understand antagonism, activation, and desensitization in AMPA iGluRs.

MSN Shows Off New Homepage
- Nov 04, 2009 2:20 PM EST
- [num] Comments
Who knew that fall was the season of the new homepage--CNN, PCMag, and now MSN have unveiled fancy new front pages this season. For its part, Microsoft says that its new pages is "the most significant redesign...in over a decade." It's also apparently "designed to be the best homepage on the Web."
So, what does it take to be "the best?" For starters, less clutter (are you listening, Bing?). Twitter and Facebook information also help, too--and, of course who can forget the built-in Bing search field, right?
Microsoft is in the process of rolling out the page to all of its users, in the meantime, eager parties can check out a preview over at http://www.msn.com/preview.aspx.

Ford Focus ST review - the most practical hot hatch on sale?
evo Verdict:
The Fast Ford formula is alive and well in the Focus ST: everyday usability meets serious performance at an affordable price. Replacing the notoriously thirsty five-cylinder 2.5-litre turbo motor of its predecessor with a smaller 2.0-litre, four-cylinder EcoBoost engine hasn't just improved economy and emissions but given performance a useful shot in the arm as well. And in this facelifted car, those strengths still remain.
It finds full expression in a supple, sporty chassis that strikes a canny balance between handling acuity and ride comfort. It may not be as fast and entertaining as Renault's hardcore RS Meganes but, with 247bhp and a top speed of 154mph, it has more than enough going for it to take the fight to the Volkswagen Golf GTI and Vauxhall Astra VXR. The much improved cabin is a still far from the best but, overall, the Focus ST delivers where it matters.
evo tip:
Don't overlook the charms of the ST estate. It offers a whopping extra 400 litres of bootspace with the seats folded down (that 1502 litres in total) and weighs only 24kg more than the hatchback. It measures nearly 200mm longer, but its wheelbase is identical to the five-door, as is its performance: the 6.5sec dash to 62mph and 154mph top speed are unchanged.
>Read our Ford Focus ST estate review
It's also worth noting that the Ford Focus RS is now on sale. With a starting price of £30,000, it's definitely a step up over the ST in terms of cost, but then the performance on offer is also significantly more. The RS puts out 345bhp and is four-wheel-drive, but retains nearly all the practicality of the ST. If you can afford it, it might just be the fast Focus to go for.

evo Comment
'Ford has pulled off something of a masterstroke with its latest Focus ST. There are faster, sharper-handling rivals. Others, perhaps most notably the Golf GTI, have a high quality look and feel that eludes the Ford. But it's the way the ST manages the fundamentals – performance, entertainment, everyday practicality and price – that makes it such an appealing proposition.' David Vivian, Contributing Road Tester, evo

> Performance and 0-60 time - With 25bhp more power than its predecessor, the Focus ST sprints to 62mph in 6.5sec, matching the Volkswagen Golf GTI. Read more about the Focus ST's performance here.
> Engine and gearbox - The new 2-litre turbocharged engine develops 247bhp at 5500rpm. That's complemented by a healthy 265lb ft of torque at just 2000rpm. Read more about the Focus ST's engine and gearbox here.
> Ride and handling - The facelifted Focus car gets electric power-steering to sharpen its responses. For an electric system it really stands out, delivering superb feedback. Read more about the Focus ST's ride and handling here.
> MPG and running costs - Expect 25mpg in the real world, not Ford's official combined fuel economy figure of 39mpg. Read more about the Focus ST's MPG and running costs here.
> Prices, specs and rivals - The ST starts from just £22,745 for the entry-level ST-1 with the diesel engine, rising to £27,650 for the trim-laden ST-3 in Estate form. There is a host of rivals in this competitive segment, but closest is probably the Volkswagen Golf in GTI and GTD trim. Read more about the Focus ST's costs here.
> Interior and tech - The interior is brazenly sporting, with Recaro seats and carbonfibre trim. Ford offers a Driver Assistance pack that adds collision avoidance and lane keep assist. Read more about the Focus ST's interior here.
> Design - Ford's facelift has tightened the Focus's lines and done away with excess visual weight. Read more about the Focus ST's design here.

This Excel spreadsheet program will calculate a modified CIPW norm for single samples, or this one that has a macro for many samples at a time. Despite the advance of technology, detailed instructions for a basic norm are shown below. A norm is essentially a set of idealized phony minerals that are calculated from a bulk chemical analysis of a rock. It is generally used for comparison or other general petrologic purposes. Norms are commonly calculated for volcanic rocks which have glass and/or exceedingly small crystals that make it difficult to determine a mineral mode, and for metamorphosed igneous rocks that no longer have the original igneous mineralogy. The normative minerals are calculated to represent, in many ways, the minerals that might crystallize if the rock were cooled under perfect equilibrium dry conditions at low pressure. For example, in terms of resembling real rocks the mineral pairs:
- quartz and Mg-rich olivine
- quartz and nepheline
- Al-silicates and augite
- orthopyroxene and nepheline,
- quartz and olivine (any composition)
- quartz and nepheline
- corundum and diopside
- orthopyroxene and nepheline.
|Norm assemblages
|Quartz, corundum, OPX:
|Silica-saturated, peraluminous, subalkaline
|Quartz, diopside, OPX:
|Silica-saturated, subaluminous, subalkaline
|Olivine, diopside, OPX:
|Silica-undersaturated, subaluminous, subalkaline
|Olivine, diopside, nepheline:
|Silica-undersaturated, subaluminous, peralkaline
Norm calculation procedure
The following procedure is similar to the original CIPW norm procedure and works for the most common rocks. It omits many calculations for unusual rocks. For example, the procedures to calculate normative leucite in strongly silica-undersaturated rocks, aegirine in alumina-undersaturated alkalic rocks, or hematite in oxidized rocks have been omitted. The procedure below also departs from the original CIPW norm in that pyroxenes, plagioclase, and olivine are calculated as their solid solutions rather than as end member components. You must do all calculations to at least five decimal places to avoid severe rounding errors.
- Use only the eleven major element oxides, for which the gram formula weights are:
- Take the oxide weight percents in the chemical analysis and divide them by their respective formula weights to give molar oxide proportions. Use these molar oxide proportions in all subsequent calculations.
- Add MnO to FeO. MnO is now zero. The combined FeO and MnO will now be called FeO.
- Apatite (Ap): Multiply P2O5 by 3.33 and subtract this number from CaO. P2O5 represents 2/3 of an apatite molecule, so multiply P2O5 by 2/3, and put this number in Apatite. P2O5 is now zero.
- Ilmenite (Ilm): Subtract TiO2 from FeO. Put the TiO2 value in ilmenite. TiO2 is now zero.
- Magnetite (Mt): Subtract Fe2O3 from FeO. Put the Fe2O3 value in magnetite. Fe2O3 is now zero.
- Orthoclase (Or): Subtract K2O from Al2O3. Put the K2O value in orthoclase. K2O is now zero.
- Albite (Ab) [Provisional]: Subtract Na2O from Al2O3. Put the Na2O value in albite. Retain the Na2O value for possible normative nepheline.
- Anorthite (An):
- If CaO is more than Al2O3, then subtract Al2O3 from CaO. Put all Al2O3 into anorthite. Al2O3 is now zero.
- If Al2O3 is more than CaO, then subtract CaO from Al2O3. Put all CaO into anorthite. CaO is now zero.
- Corundum (Cor): If Al2O3 is not zero, put the remaining Al2O3 into Corundum. Diopside and Al2O3 are now zero.
- Calculate the current ratio of Mg/(Mg+Fe+2). This ratio is called Mg' and will be the Mg/(Mg+Fe+2) ratio for all normative silicates.
Mg' = MgO/(MgO+FeO)
- Calculate the mean formula weight of the remaining FeO and MgO. This combined Fe-Mg oxide called FMO will be used in subsequent calculations.
Formula weight of FMO = (Mg'*40.3044)+((1-Mg')*71.8464)
- Add FeO and MgO to get FMO.
- Diopside (Di): If CaO is not zero, subtract CaO from FMO. Put all CaO into diopside. CaO is now zero.
- Hypersthene (Hy) [Provisional]: Put all remaining FMO into hypersthene. Retain the FMO value for the possible calculation of normative olivine.
- Calculate the amount of SiO2 needed for all of the normative silicate minerals listed above, allotting SiO2 as follows:
Orthoclase * 6 = needed SiO2 for each Orthoclase
Albite * 6 = needed SiO2 for each Albite
Anorthite * 2 = needed SiO2 for each Anorthite
Diopside * 2 = needed SiO2 for each Diopside
Hypersthene * 1 = needed SiO2 for each Hypersthene
- Sum the five SiO2 values just calculated, and call this number pSi for provisional SiO2.
- Quartz (Qz): If there is enough silica to make all five minerals then the rock is quartz-normative. Otherwise there is no quartz in the norm and silica to make the rest of the silicates must come from other sources.
- If pSi calculated in step 16 is less than SiO2, then there is excess silica. Subtract pSi from SiO2, and put excess SiO2 in quartz. SiO2, Nepheline, and olivine are now zero. Skip to step 23.
- If pSi calculated in step 16 is more than SiO2, then the rock is silica deficient. Proceed to step 19.
- Olivine (Ol), Hypersthene (Hy): If pSi calculated in step 16 is more than SiO2, then there is an SiO2 deficit. Quartz is now zero. Calculate a new pSi as in step 16, omitting hypersthene.
Orthoclase * 6 = needed SiO2 for each Orthoclase
Albite * 6 = needed SiO2 for each Albite
Anorthite * 2 = needed SiO2 for each Anorthite
Diopside * 2 = needed SiO2 for each Diopside
- Sum the four SiO2 values just calculated to get a new value of pSi. Subtract the new pSi from SiO2 to get the amount of SiO2 available for olivine and hypersthene, called aSi.
- If FMO is greater than or equal to 2 times aSi, then put all FMO in olivine. FMO and hypersthene are now zero. Proceed to step 21.
- If FMO is less than 2 times aSi, then nepheline is zero. Calculate the amount of hypersthene and olivine as follows:
Hypersthene = ((2 * aSi) - FMO)
Olivine = (FMO - Hypersthene)
Skip to step 23.
- Nepheline (Ne), Albite (Ab): If you reached this step, then turning hypersthene into olivine in step 20a did not yield enough silica to make Or, Ab, An, Di, and Ol. Calculate a new pSi value as in step 16, omitting hypersthene and albite.
Orthoclase * 6 = needed SiO2 for each Orthoclase
Anorthite * 2 = needed SiO2 for each Anorthite
Diopside * 2 = needed SiO2 for each Diopside
Olivine * 0.5 = needed SiO2 for each Olivine
- Sum the three SiO2 values just calculated to get a new value of pSi. Subtract this pSi from SiO2 to get a new value of aSi, which is the amount of SiO2 available for albite and nepheline.
Albite = (aSi-(2*Na2O))/4
Nepheline = Na2O-Albite
- Multiply orthoclase, albite, and nepheline by two. Divide olivine by two.
- Calculate An', which is the Ca/(Ca+Na) ratio in normative plagioclase:
An' = Anorthite/(Anorthite+Albite)
- Plagioclase (Plag): Add albite to anorthite to make plagioclase. Retain the albite value.
- Calculate the formula weight of plagioclase, using the An' value from step 24.
Formula weight Plag = (An'*278.2093)+((1-An')*262.2230)
- Multiply all of the normative mineral values by their respective formula weights. The formula weight of FMO is from step 12.
|Calculated in step 26
|176.2480 + formula weight of FMO
|60.0843 + formula weight of FMO
|60.0843 + (2 * formula weight of FMO)
- This is your weight norm. This might be published along with four other useful parameters:
|The sum of all mineral weights, calculated in step 27. Within rounding error the Total should be the same as the original total of the weight % of the oxides from the chemical analysis.
|100*Mg' From step 11.
|100*An' from step 24.
|The Differentiation Index of Thornton and Tuttle (1960). This is the weight ratio: (Qz+Or+Ab+Ne)/Total. Ab is albite from step 23 times 262.2230.
- The weight norm is the way norms are usually expressed. If you want to compare norms to modes (which are volume fractions) you should divide each normative mineral by its density and normalize the Total back to 100%. Mineral densities can be gotten from mineralogy texts, the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, or elsewhere. The density of plagioclase and the Fe-Mg silicates with intermediate solid solutions can be found in tables or figures in mineralogy texts, or equations derived from them.
Remember that this Excel spreadsheet program can calculate the norms for you.

How else could a judge say with impunity that wine and women couldn't be seen as cor-ruptive influence since they didn't involve monetary benefit. Or a chief minister turn a blind eye to rioters outside his palace gates. Like Ayn Rand in Atlas Shrugged, he might just say --"we are on strike against martyrdom -- and against the moral code the demands it. We are on strike against those who believe that one man must exist for the sake of another. We are on strike against the morality of cannibals, be it practised in body or in spirit. We will not deal with men on any terms but ours -- and our terms are a moral code which holds that man is an end in himself and not the means to any end of others." Only, that there are so many roads to corruption.

San Jose should become the largest city in California, and perhaps the nation, to ban plastic foam containers for food.
The City Council should approve the ban Tuesday, joining more than 70 California cities including Palo Alto, Menlo Park, Fremont and San Francisco that already ban plastic foam cups and food containers.
The ban will reduce litter and improve water quality in San Jose's streams and the San Francisco Bay. It also will reduce the amount of garbage going into city landfills, helping to meet state requirements and avoid increased costs in the future.
City staff is recommending approval of Councilman Sam Liccardo's proposal to phase out the containers beginning in 2014. In the latest version, small restaurants that generate less than $300,000 in revenue a year would be exempt, since they may be more sensitive to any cost differential -- although an increasing number of alternatives on the market actually cost less.
Opponents claim there's a market for recycled foam food containers, but city staff doesn't see it, and we don't either. They fear a San Jose ban could inspire restrictions statewide. On that count -- we can only hope. Foam waste is a problem everywhere, and California's environmental leadership has accelerated other beneficial movements, such as energy-efficiency standards.
As Liccardo told Mercury News reporter John Woolfolk, "Polystyrene is going to go the way of lead in gasoline."
McDonald's stopped using plastic foam in 1989 after the Environmental Protection Agency found styrene in 100 percent of all samples of human fat tissue it researched in 1986. Burger King and Taco Bell also have shifted to paper products.
San Jose and Silicon Valley are cultivating a "Green Vision," not only to improve the environment and deal with climate change, but also to make the region attractive for job creators and the bright people they want to hire. That's another reason for San Jose to join the vanguard of cities banning plastic foam containers.

I don't usually add my 2 cents from the couch but I have to for this show. IT sprayed out of my speakers in the 2nd set and soaked my body. Ridiculous flow and insane musical density. When chalkdust is a key player in one of the highlights of a fantastic 2nd set you know you have something special.

Tautz began its life as a research into collective British Style & Heritage, as the pursuit of capturing "Britishness" without falling into the trap of stereotyping. Tautz is a personal reflection of Mariya V. Pigoulevskaya, resulting in a functional & characterful font family. Tautz features lowered x-height with an intention to create tension and resistance on the page or screen for that matter. This counteracts the geometric approach to the glyph construction and the sharpness of serif details. Resulting in a unique typeface that is suitable for text & display.

Like a nicotine breeze,
Moving over the other end of the tiny room,
You, atomized,
I close my eyes
I smell the echoes of your skin
Like a nicotine breeze,
Fresh brown bread,
Or melted cinnamon butter,
Moving over the other end of the tiny room,
The Chanel activated in scant sweat,
The tantalizing traces of sodium,
The twist of slight citrus.
You, atomized,
Sparkle through the air
Like fireflies blooming in bursts
Trailing on the gusts
Of the ever-exhaling A/C.
I close my eyes
And through a second
Stretched across the scented space
Breathe in.
You're far

Safer than NSAIDs in terms of causing bleeding, these medicines are most widely used for reducing fever. Since they don't have a specific anti-inflammatory function, they are less popular than the NSAID group. The risk here is liver damage: Acetamenophin causes three times more liver damage than all other medicines combined. Stick to the recommended dose.

Nikon's GP-1 now in hand
My friends at Adorama managed to get me a GP-1 after what seems like an eternity for Nikon to deliver them. I thought I'd have one back in August, but you know what they say, good things are worth waiting for. The first thing that impressed me is its size, it's much smaller than I thought it would be. As you can see here, it's much smaller than the prism of the D3. At first I thought the cord was a bit too long for my taste. Once I attached it to the camera and put one loop in it, the stiffness of the cord took care of the length problem. Nikon includes with the GP-1 the GP1-CL1 which is a cool clip that securely goes onto your camera strap so you can attach the GP-1 there rather than the hot shoe. That's pretty cool.
The next thing you'll notice is there is no On/Off switch on the GP-1. It turns on and off via the camera's actuation. With your GPS Auto meter off Enabled in the settings for the camera, you conserve battery power but you must make sure the GPS icon appears in the camera's LCD prior to shooting to record the GPS info. The GP-1 has a red light (means no satelite signal) and green light (blinking means 3 sates, solid green means 4 or more sates found). If you have a red light on the back, no GPS data will be recorded; a green light, good to go. I have to admit, I'm impressed by the GP-1's speed of acquisition as well as ability. I'm sitting at my desk in the corner of our office and while the other GPS units I have cannot find a signal, the GP-1 has blinking green light in 5secs, a solid green light within 15secs.
Now here's the ticker to me. I was hoping 1 of the 3 connectors seen in the original product shots from Nikon, one would turn out to be a connector for the MC-36 remote. Nope, that's not the case. You need to buy the MC-DC2 remote to use the GP-1 and remote at the same time. Even with this little goofy, the GP-1 is by far the best GPS unit I've have for my cameras in 30yrs so I'm quite pleased to finally have it.

Gary Scott's Wee 3" takes to the high side in an effort to stay in front of Roy Hibbard (Miller Chevy 26) at Sedalia during the Missouri State Championships. Scott was a really nice guy who would die at Knoxville in 1982 in a horrible crash on the frontstretch. Because of that wreck, wings have been standard equipment at the Central Iowa oval since.

Emmett Hahn won nine races and his fifth Tulsa crown in 1978. Hahn, along with chief mechanic, Denny Moore, crew chief, Herschel Goodnight and his Zink crew set new standards at which future generations would shoot with records for most wins in a season, most consecutive wins and career wins. Jack Zink is, perhaps, the only car owner in this book to go from Indy cars and end up with Supermodifieds. He owned the winning cars in both the 1955 (Bob Swiekert) and 1958 (Pat Flaherty) Indy 500's and continued to own Indy cars through the 1967 season.
