Read 8 verified patient reviews for Hearing Care of Carson City! Their average review score is 4.5 () from 8 reviews.
"The staff is very helpful - kind and generous too. I've been in for several adjustments, received free batteries, and always a kind greeting. They are all very professional."
"He listened to me and listened to what I said, then made changes to the hearing aid program."
"She said he extremely professional, knowledgable, helped me a great deal, hearing better than before, did everything to help enhance hearing"
"They were all professional."
"Terrible service. Unless you're planning to buy hearing aids, these people don't want to help and are not personable. And they've made that explicitly clear by stating that I should buy new aids rather than spend the money on repair. I'm now in the market to replace my current aids but after three times visiting, I will never spend my time or money here again. I've never met the audiologist who is apparently too busy/important to meet potential clients in the lobby or even call me and tell me what needs to be done on the aid. I've dropped my aids off for repair several times. This most recent visit, I'm still waiting after a month for one to return. I told them my aid was not under warranty when I dropped it off, and it took them several weeks to even send it off for repair. Next phone call I got was, "Your aid isn't under warranty, do you still want it fixed?" This is three weeks after dropping it off. Two weeks later, I'm still waiting. You'd think I didn't rely on my hearing aids. I'm not deaf. They're just for display. I've never had such terrible service and if this is any reflection of how the rest of their services are, I'd rather give my money to some folks who need it. I've never been so aggravated by any kind of service. My other aid needs repair (the first repair earlier this summer was defective and needs to be returned) and IS under warranty. By the time the first one gets back, the warranty will be over. I'd rather shoot myself in the foot than deal with this dealer again and again."

The course reveals what delegation can do for you and your team and introduces a four-phase model to delegate tasks and manage projects large and small. The phases include evaluating the task, handing the task over, supporting task completion, and closing the task. In between, learn how to pick the right level of autonomy for each task and the best ways to avoid micromanagement.

- Evaluating tasks
- Determining which tasks to delegate
- Assigning tasks
- Meeting with team members
- Providing team support
- Avoiding micromanaging and the fear of letting go
- Accepting delegation from your boss
Skill Level Appropriate for all
In my professional life, I've conducted hundreds of job interviews, and during each one we talk about supervision. First, we ask how the person likes to be supervised and not once has anyone ever said, "I love to be micromanaged." Every single person said something like, "I like to be given the parameters of my work and then allowed the freedom to do my job." In addition, we always ask candidates who will be managing others what their management style is, and again, not once has anyone ever said, "I'm a micromanager." In fact, most people make a point of saying that they're not, and yet in reality micromanagement happens all of the time.
You've probably been micromanaged, I certainly have, and you may have actually micromanaged someone else, I've done that too. So with all the good intentions, how is this happening so much? Well, it's usually due to one of three things. The first cause is an incomplete evaluation process. As I mentioned earlier, the evaluation phase is the phase that most people skip because they're often delegating under pressure. They are in a hurry to offload something during a stressful time, and that never ends well. By using the tips from this course and by committing to doing the evaluation phase, you will automatically eliminate the source of micromanagement.
The second cause is lack of clarity about the level of autonomy. When an employee feels micromanaged, it's because she or he thought they would be getting a higher level of autonomy than they are. It's the manager's responsibility to make the level clear. When that doesn't happen, it usually stems from skipping the evaluation process or from simply not knowing about the different levels. Now that you know about the multiple levels of autonomy, you can make an informed decision about what you're giving a delegate and why. When you communicate the level you're giving, you eliminate any confusion or mistaken assumptions that either of you may have had.
Now over time if you always give low levels of autonomy, you will demonstrate that you have a pattern of not trusting your employees, so be sure to push yourself to grow as well. Keep an eye on delegation briefs over time. If you team is performing well, you should be giving higher and higher levels of autonomy. The third cause of micromanagement is the manager violating the agreed-upon level of autonomy. When it's unnecessary, it will feel like micromanagement to the delegate. That's different from the situations where it is necessary for the manager to step in.
This would be because the stakes are high or because the delegate truly cannot accomplish the task. This type of involvement by the manager would come as a result of discussions between the manager and the delegate. Everyone should be on the same page about what's happening and why, and in fact, the delegate may have even requested the assistance or at least can certainly see why it needed to happen. But when true micromanagement happens, it's because the manager has unnecessarily violated the level of autonomy. In other words, the delegate was capable of completing the task successfully, but the manager stepped in anyway.
This not only frustrates the delegate but shortchanges their opportunity to learn and grow. This sometimes occurs because of poor communication, the involvement was necessary but the manager did not adequately communicate what's happening and why, but most often this issue is a result of the manager's discomfort with letting go. While the manager may have had good intentions to honor the level of autonomy, he or she may not be able to manage their personal reaction to the letting go process. As a result, they undermine the delegate's autonomy. In the next video, we'll cover common causes and strategies for overcoming this fear of letting go.

A's to promote pitching prospect Sonny Gray
Sonny Gray called up for bullpen duty
Sonny Gray is 8-5 with a 2.81 ERA over 16 Triple-A starts this year. (AP)
Top pitching prospect Sonny Gray is joining the A's, manager Bob Melvin confirmed to reporters in Pittsburgh after an initial report by the San Francisco Chronicle.
The corresponding roster move is to send right-hander Dan Straily back to Triple-A Sacramento, despite Straily winning his last two starts, including Tuesday night's 2-1 A's victory over the Pirates. Straily told reporters he knew he was headed back to the minors even if he threw a perfect game.
The A's do not need a fifth starter until after the All-Star break, on July 23 on Houston, and Gray, 23, has never pitched out of the bullpen in his professional career. Still, there is the possibility of All-Star selection Bartolo Colon, who already served a 50-game suspension last season for a failed drug test, facing discipline after the break for his reportedly being associated with the PED-affiliated Biogenesis clinic in Florida.
Gray, meanwhile, is 8-5 with a 2.81 ERA in 102 1/3 innings over 16 starts with 107 strikeouts, 34 walks and a 1.27 WHIP in Sacramento.
"Sonny's an electric arm," catcher Stephen Vogt, who caught Gray in Sacramento, said when he was with the A's last month. "He's the real deal. He's got great stuff. He's got three pitches. He's still developing his command a little bit but his stuff is there. He's going to be something really special."
Gray, the A's top pick in the 2011 first-year-play draft, No. 18 overall, will be the A's second first-round draft pick to join Oakland this week as infielder Grant Green was called up Monday. The right-handed Gray was scheduled to start for the River Cats at Colorado Springs Tuesday night but was scratched. Instead, Chris Resop took his spot.
Green, the club's top pick in 2009, started at second base in the A's series opener at Pittsburgh.
The A's could also simply be taking stock of their minor league talent with the July 31 non-waiver trade deadline approaching.

Both parties must put people's interests first
Locally, pro-union Democrat Mark Poloncarz defeated incumbent Republican County Executive Chris Collins. Nationally, an anti-union piece of Republican legislation was soundly defeated in Ohio. Hmm. Having accomplished what he promised when he came into office four years ago, namely, to change the dismal financial picture in Erie County, in his concession speech Collins indicated that he was not sure what his defeat meant. What message were voters sending? Hmm. Former County Executive Joel Giambra says it's time for Republicans to change their message. Hmm.
As a Republican, let me suggest that it's not about crafting a political message that is attractive to voters. Rather, it is about having the right mission. Perhaps we have begun to uncover the main shortcoming of running government in accord with a "business" model. At the risk of oversimplification, within the business world the primary focus is financial. The result is that people, both workers and consumers, are necessary for the generation of wealth. In other words, people become secondary means to the end of economic advantage.
So what may be the voter message? It is really quite simple. Make sure that "we the people" are first. Make it your mission to enhance the quality of life for all of the people you are elected to serve. Many voters are willing to risk a less financially efficient government so long as it is effective in providing the conditions that enhance their quality of life. As individuals and communities, we are often willing to do without in order to walk side by side with our neighbors as together we pursue that happiness the founders of our country had in mind. So whereas "we the people" want leaders with business know-how, we do not necessarily want leaders who are all business.

SPCA case about horses has dragged on too long
Having been involved with the horses in the SPCA/Hoskins case since the beginning, I applaud the editorial in the Nov. 4 Buffalo News, as well as Karen Robinson's articles and Donn Esmonde's columns.
The SPCA's mission is to protect animals. These people are the professionals with the knowledge. They have had high, non-budgeted animal care and legal expenses in this case, which has dragged on for way too long. Both sides deserve both trials to move forward quickly.

Movement is sending several vital messages
The 15,000 health care workers of District 1, Communications Workers of America (CWA), support the continued efforts of Occupy Buffalo. We, as health care workers and union members, more than understand the issues that are being brought to the forefront by the Occupy demonstrations, not only in Buffalo, but in cities across the country and around the world.
Critics of these efforts would say that there is not a singular and/or clear message. Is there a necessity for a movement to have only a singular message? There are several messages that are important. People are frustrated and angry about the growing monetary divide between the rich and the poor. They are concerned with disappearing pensions and not knowing if they will be able to survive to retirement. The message is clear -- people have had enough! Clear enough?
We, as health care workers, see so much of the devastation and illness that has been thrust on our communities due to the recession, failing economy and gridlock in Washington, D.C. We see hardworking people going without medical insurance and being seen in our emergency rooms only when they are critically ill. We visit clients in their homes who are going without their medications, or trying to stretch them out as far as they can, because they cannot afford them. We see families trying to care for their elderly family members because they cannot afford an appropriate place of care.
We must stand side by side -- health care workers, union members, community activists, religious groups and other concerned citizens -- and demand that we return stability and equality to our country. We have had enough!

Smart growth can help this area save millions
When financial times get tough, it's hard to stick to your guns. Even the most responsible consumers can find their mettle tested when money is tight. Paying an extra few dollars for that energy-efficient light bulb stings just a little more, and big-box bargain chains may start to seem palatable. Western New York's politicians face similar challenges on a larger scale, but when strapped for cash, the answer isn't lowering standards. It's spending smarter.
Is Western New York really in a position to throw away nearly a billion dollars? In 2006, Erie and Niagara counties joined forces to create the Framework for Regional Growth, Western New York's first regional plan in more than 30 years. The plan aspires to reduce sprawl and encourage development in existing neighborhoods. Unless we change our ways, between now and 2025 only 25 percent of development will occur in developed areas like Buffalo, Tonawanda and Amherst, while 35 percent will stretch out into rural areas such as Newfane, Marilla and Colden.
As sprawl marches on, new roads, sewers and other infrastructure must be built and maintained, at significant expense. If we can reverse the trend by investing 70 percent of development in existing neighborhoods, the region would save nearly $800 million.
Buffalo already has infrastructure in place to support more than twice its current population of 260,000. Needlessly expanding outward even more is a step in the wrong direction. Sprawl not only hurts the environment and damages existing neighborhoods -- it is economically irresponsible.
Hopefully, the newly instituted Western New York Regional Economic Development Council will be able to make headway with promising but stalled initiatives like the Regional Framework, thereby establishing Buffalo as a progressive region and a leader in smart growth.
Ryan McCarthy
Occupiers are trying to raise awareness
Millions of people have lost their jobs and homes. Families are having trouble making ends meet due to this poor economy. The Occupiers are protesting this and the Wall Street bailout. They are trying to raise awareness and produce change while some people are more concerned about the trampled grass. We only wish the economy could be fixed as easily as the lawn at Niagara Square.

tripod for nature photography
I live in upstate New York and frequently hike along the trials of the Fingerlakes and Apps (often hiking 20+ miles a day). Considering the length of the hikes, I am considering purchasing a carbon fiber tripod. However, I also don't know if I can justify the several hundred bucks more for the carbon fiber (especially since I'm only a poor college student). I would appreciate some recommendations on the "cheaper" carbon fiber (CF) models available as well as some slightly heaver alternatives to CF (I guess that would be aluminum...not really too familiar with tripods, other than my titall). Obviously, the quality and variety of available heads for any legs is important. I would appreciate any comments or recommendations.

Hate to tell you but there are no cheaper carbon fiber tripods.
1st are the Gitzos, then the a bit less expensive Manfrottos (Bogen). But there are alternatives in aluminum as you can see n this thread here:

I liked my Manfrotto 441 carbon, which is a less expensive carbon model. It is duplicated in aluminum as the 3001PRO model. The center column can be used horizontally (great for macro work) and can be left behind. There's a widget that stores on the bottom of the column that fits in it's place so you have a platform to mount the head. Either would be a good choice.
I went for the recently introduced Gitzo Explorer. It has a great capability with levers that allow infinite leg angle adjustability and the center column can be adjusted to various angles (even better for macro work). It's heavier than the Manfrotto and moderately more expensive. The carbon version is 4.5 lbs. and the aluminum one (reasonably priced) weighs a half pound more. The Gitzo is more solid, but there are times when I wish I had the option of carrying the 441 to lighten the load.

ALTERNATIVE: As a poor college student, a reasonable alternative might be to buy the Jacko Royal Deluxe w/ Shock Absorber Hiking Staff containing a camera screw in the removeable wooden handle; replace that handle with a heavy duty ballhead w/ quick disconnect. The hiking staff is made of 7075 aluminum and adjusts from about 28" to 50 something and it has a covered spike for on or off trail along with a cup to prevent it from being driven too deep in anything soft. The shock absorbing mechanism is superb for the down hill stuff!!!! I hike and prefer this to my tripod because mosttimes I hike a lot farther than I take pictures and the hiking staff is adjustable for uphill or down. I used mine full height as a monopod at Big Bend and am dropping my film speed from 200 down to 64 now. I use it with my camera strap attached and still around my neck (just in case gravity sneaks in) and balance it all on my shoulder as I stroll in places where I might shoot. I bought it off ebay for $28; keep looking, they show up time and again. The ballhead cost a good bit more but I can transfer it to my at-home tripod or mini-travel keep-in-my-bag travel tripod. Ken
#4. "Jacko Royal Deluxe" | In response to Reply # 3Sun 09-Dec-01 11:21 PM
That sounds like an interesting hiking staff KTT! I'd probably be interested in one if I could find one. Is the Jacko Royal Deluxe w/shock absorber hiking staff a discontinued item?
#5. "RE: Jacko Royal Deluxe" | In response to Reply # 4JM Registered since 01st Mar 2007Mon 10-Dec-01 02:54 AM
I have seen similar designs at outdoor stores, REI and Eastern Mountain Sports, but they run closer to $50 depending on manufacturer. Both of these stores have on line sites with pictures for you to check it out.

LAST EDITED ON Dec-11-01 AT 10:42 PM (GMT)
I've never heard of or seen a Jacko Royal Deluxe hiking staff, nor has the Google search engine. Any help finding a source would be welcome.
I have tried various hiking staff solutions for backcountry photo hiking. I most recently bought a Gitzo Monotrek, which can be bought in a couple of versions. Mine came with a small ballhead that has a cap that provides a rounded top. It has a nice cork-rubber grip, a wrist strap, and a carbide tip with a snow basket you can install.
This would be a great choice except that the alumninum tubing isn't the strong tempered material used in good ski and hiking poles. I braced against the Monotrek while hiking down a trail and having my feet slip. The lower section simply bent over like soft aluminum will do. Tempered tubing would have snapped after taking much more force than I applied to the pole.
Bogen doesn't carry the leg section and my Monotrek is now officially field-tested junk. I advise that you don't use a standard monopod for a hiking staff since it will not hold up well to dings and use as a support staff.
Right now I've mounted a Manfrotto tilt-swivel head (that I prefer to the tiny ball head) on a Tracks hiking staff that is made of stronger stuff. These are available at REI and most other outdoors stores. If Jacko sticks were carried anywhere around here or at the larger online retailers I'd know it since I looked long and hard for all the options.
If I were hiking 20 miles a day, I'd go for the lightest solution possible. A hiking staff with a camera mount is good, or one of the small lightweight Ultra-pods would save a lot of weight over even a carbon fiber tripod. There's also the tiny Giotto's Q-pod.
#7. "RE: Jacko Royal Deluxe" | In response to Reply # 6Wed 12-Dec-01 11:34 PM
Sorry to hear about the accident with your monopod. Did your accident create abnormal stress to your pod that any one of them would have collapsed under the pressure? Can it be repaired? Maybe it is not worth the cost unless it is under warranty? I have noticed several of the hiking staff monopods that have the mount on a couple of the afore mentioned sites. I wonder what the quality of these pods are and if they have any decent warranties? It now appears that should be a major concern after your mishap.

Come to think of it....isn't "Jacko" a moniker for Michael Jackson (i.e. self proclaimed King of Pop?) There was just a TV special with him on. A person would think a web search should pull up something old or new concerning "Jacko?"

Hakuba. I've tried them in the shop; they seem about on par in stability as the well-liked Bogen 3021's, but they don't have the versitility of the Bogen center-column.

Hi Bill,
I have bad experiences with the Gitzo carbon Mountaineer (first model on the market). The rubber adjustment fittings tend to come loose. There is a problem with the glue to fix the rubber to the carbon. I 've sent the tripod back to the manufacturer, got a new one and again have the same problem. In fact, it is the worst tripod I've ever had. It is lightweight, but that's the only positive thing I can say about it.

#11. "RE: tripod for nature photography" | In response to Reply # 0
It's a little pricey for a lightweight model, but I would look at gitzo's G126 "Tatalux" model- real light, AL so it's not outrageously $$, 4 leg sections for max efficiency, "performance" model means adjustable leg angle settings, and compact enough for pack use (< 20in w/ reasonable head.) Good luck and good shooting.
Spoil yourself when it comes to tripods- They will improve your photos like no other accessory, and when you have the appropriate and convienient equipment, It really makes using a tripod fun rather than drudgery, like with cheap #####. (sorry).

Jayadevan P K , ET Bureau
A significant collection of Indian modern art is housed in the former residence of the Maharaja of Jaipur in Lutyen's Delhi, which, 58 years ago, became the National Gallery of Modern Art (NGMA). It has a new home now - the Internet. Now to walk by the works of masters of Indian art like Raja Ravi Varma and Abanindranath Tagore or examine M F Husain's Zameen and Tyeb Mehta's Shantiniketan Triptych, all you need is an internet connection. Last Tuesday, the NGMA and the National Museum in Delhi joined the ranks of top galleries around the world such as the Tate Gallery in London and the Metropolitan Museum, as part of the Google Art project . The project, which uses high-resolution imagery to give internet users a virtual tour of galleries around the world, was launched in February with 17 museums and galleries.

Global market for arts and crafts expanding, India's potential still untapped
January 28, 2012
Ashoke Nag , ET Bureau
A study on 'Art & Corporate India', released by Ficci, has stressed that with the global market for arts and crafts expanding, it is time that attention is paid to India's enormous and largely untapped potential in this sector. Highlighting the immense possibilities of cultural commerce and its positive externalities, the study identifies the key growth drivers that would help the sector to leapfrog to a higher growth trajectory. The study has said that, backed by positive socio-economic environment, the growth of the arts sector in India crucially depends on a conducive policy environment and involvement of the corporate sector.
The 4th edition of the Indian Art Fair is more about commerce than just the jingle of money
January 26, 2012
Manoj Nair , ET Bureau
When you sit in an airline waiting to take off with an 'Absolut Subodh Gupta' staring back at you from the partition that divides the 'classes', you know contemporary Indian art is not a new bogus religion. It is a leap of faith. Particularly, if you alight from the aircraft to be greeted by an 'Absolut Bharati Kher' in the airport lobby. There is a case to be made about how contemporary Indian contemporary art has become. It is emerging as every day excursions with the Indian Art Fair holding the promise of a carnival of excess.
2011: A year where Indian art lost giants
December 27, 2011
Sorrow was overarching sentiment in the year for Indian art as it witnessed the death of two stalwarts - M F Husain and Jehangir Sabavala - bringing to an end an illustrious period. While Husain, an ex-cinema billboard painter who became a globally sought after artist, died in self-exile in London in June at the age of 95, modern painter Sabavala, who mixed impressionist and cubist styles, died September at 89 years. Also, Sohan Qadri and Biren De, two prominent names in the field of art passed away.

As a result no one can submit new events unless they pick one of the (aprox) 5 locations that were saved before this happened. If they chose one of those they can submit an event just fine.
Please help.

Hi Sean,
I wonder if you can help me out with a problem I've encountered with your plugin. I've just installed a brand new WordPress site from scratch, and I've installed WP into a subfolder called "wordpress", but with the site URL itself being the root folder (which is a fully supported configuration for WordPress, as per http://codex.wordpress.org/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory).
So on the "General Settings" page, I have set the WordPress Address to http://www.example.com/wordpress and I have set the Site Address to http://www.example.com. Everything is working fine - I can log into the dashboard, I can browse the site correctly at http://www.example.com, etc etc.
Then I installed your Lockdown WP plugin (LWP). It's literally the only plugin I have installed, and it was the very first thing I did - I haven't configured anything else apart from the permalinks, which I have set to a custom structure of http://www.example.com/%postname%
(I have already used LWP on other sites without problem, where WP is installed into the root directory rather than into a subdirectory - today is the first time I'm doing it on a site with WP in a subdirectory).
On the LWP settings page, I enabled "hide WP Admin", and I changed the login URL to "dashboard". The plugin showed the subdirectory there as part of the URL, where it says "Change the WordPress Login URL? http://www.example.com/wordpress/ [________]"
I am *not* using HTTP Authentication.
Then I clicked Save, and logged out in order to test it.
The results I got were inconsistant, and I have a feeling that the plugin doesn't work properly when WordPress is installed in a subdirectory. I hope you can check and confirm this for me, and fix it if necessary. :)
So here are the URLs I typed into my browser, while logged out of WP, and the results, and whether I find the results good or not:
1) http://www.example.com/wp-login.php -> gives 404 (good!)
2) http://www.example.com/wordpress/wp-login.php -> This works and displays the login panel, and does not change/hide the URL! (NOT good)
3) http://www.example.com/wp-admin/ -> redirects automatically to http://www.example.com/wordpress/wp-admin/ and gives 404 (good) - however, I'd prefer this not to redirect. It should stay at the original URL so it doesn't give away the /wordpress/ subfolder where I've installed WP. It would be better for the redirection to work the other way around, ie. for http://www.example.com/wordpress/wp-admin to redirect to http://www.example.com/wp-admin and then give the 404. Or at the very least, there should be no redirection at all, and both URLs should give a 404.
4) http://www.example.com/wordpress/wp-admin/ -> gives 404 (good)
5) http://www.example.com/dashboard -> displays the login panel, as expected (good)
6) http://www.example.com/wordpress/dashboard -> redirects to http://www.example.com/wordpress/wp-admin/ and gives 404 (I would prefer that it redirects to http://www.example.com/dashboard and shows the login box)
7) http://www.example.com/admin -> redirects to http://www.example.com/wordpress/wp-admin/ and gives 404 - not good, as this exposes the wp-admin URL - and I'm surprised that /admin would redirect in the first place - is this URL something you've built into your plugin, or is it part of core WordPress functionality? It would be better for this to stay as http://www.example.com/admin and give a 404 there.
8) http://www.example.com/wordpress/admin/ redirects to http://www.example.com/wordpress/wp-admin/ and gives 404 - also not good as this exposes the wp-admin URL.
Now here's the worst part: I then went to http://www.example.com/dashboard and logged in there via the login panel, and it immediately redirected me to http://www.example.com/wordpress/wp-admin/ and I get a 404 error!! Not good! Even though I did log in with correct credentials. So now I'm locked out of WP completely and can't get in at all - even if I go back to the login panel and log in again, it just takes me back to http://www.example.com/wordpress/wp-admin and gives me a 404. The only way I can fix this is by removing the "lockdown-wp-admin" folder from /wp-content/plugins on the server (using FTP), and then it will let me log in again to the Dashboard. I've never had this problem on WordPress installations where WP is installed into the root directory, so I have to assume that the problem is with WP running out of a subdirectory.
Unfortunately this renders your wonderful plugin unusable by me, so I really hope you can fix it, as yours is by far the best plugin I've seen for hiding the URL of the login page (without using .htaccess or annoying "secret keys" etc).
I hope this all makes sense and you can check and confirm this for me!
Thanks! :)

Is it possible to show most popular post for the last 7 days
Is it possible to show most popular post for the last 7 days
Hi ace,
Yes. If you're using WordPress Popular Posts as a sidebar widget, simply change the Time Range setting to weekly. If you're using the shortcode version, set range to weekly (eg. [wpp range=weekly]).
and how about showing the most popular posts the last 7 days but that where edited the last 7 days (not overall)
I am using the widget and it is not following the seven days I selected. I have a post with details here. Any ideas?

Obviously very skeptical at first I asked a lot of questions and was made to believe the deal was legit. I obligingly paid the $1.00 received the disks and called and got the return authorization number and returned them, all of them even though they said that we could keep one of them and just return the other 2.
I still have not received my "free" digital camera though. I have all of my original papers except for the ones that they said had to be sent back. I even still have my authorization number. I just now called them and got a man named Andrew and he said that it looks like they messed up for some reason and didn't send it to me, and he went and talked to his supervisor and supposedly I am going to be getting one in the mail in the next 10 days. We'll see.

Back in the game
I'm baaaack!
About six months ago I sold my D800 to fund other adventures. Those adventures succeeded, but I was not particularly comfortable with the results. So I (just this week) contacted the party that bought my D800 and I was able to buy it back for the same price as I got for it.
I realize that there was probably some depreciation that would have occurred, but the camera was used very little after the sale (I need to go confirm the difference in actuation count), and it was a known entity not having any of the focus problems that some did, and in fact the camera was sent to Nikon to have it checked after the sale and not only did it come back clean, but was accompanied by a new battery and they even updated the firmware.
Anyway, I'm pleased as punch, and feel like I am "back home" (and still have a new alternate platform for other applications).
D810, D750, N1-J5, N1-V3 (and a few other cameras) and a BIG handful of lenses.

So funny Rosey - kids say such adorable when they say things like that. Keep sharing.
Jealous that you got Christmas stuff up already Manda. I'm thinking about starting to address Chrsitmas cards but haven't gotten beyond thinking. I think its the warm Florida weather. Just doesn't feel like CHristmas is around the corner.
My son melted my heart this morning - he's 35 and I'm really proud of him.
His grandmother sends him a check every Christmas and like me, he stresses about what to buy her becuase she can buy any thing she wants for herself.
He texted me a copy of what he sent her.
He filled out a check and sent it to her with a Christmas card. It is made out to her and on the amount line he wrote X O and on the line with the amount he wrote "one hug and one kiss" then wrote in the card she could cash it when he went to see her at Christmas.
I thought that was so sweet!

Extreme environmental events, such as floods, droughts, rainstorms, and high winds, have severe consequences for human society. Regional frequency analysis helps to solve the problem of estimating the frequency of these rare events at one site by using data from several sites. This book is the first complete account of the L-moment approach to regional frequency analysis. Regional Frequency Analysis comprehensively describes the theoretical background to the subject, is rich in practical advice for users, and contains detailed examples that illustrate the approach. This book will be of great value to hydrologists, atmospheric scientists and civil engineers, concerned with environmental extremes.

Linux software on Mac OS X
Pack Your Mac
An increasing number of Linux desktop users also run a Mac, and although the Mac has a lot of great programs, Linux has a lot of apps you can't get natively for the Mac.
Fink and MacPorts are projects that focus on porting open source software to Mac systems. Both projects also provide a packaging system and an interface for command-line installation.
Pick a Project
MacPorts [1] is the more comprehensive project, with 5,807 packages (at time of writing) to Fink's 3,015. However, Fink [2] still offers certain packages that aren't in MacPorts. If you have a short list of packages you want to move to your Mac, check out both package lists to see which will work the best.
Or Mix and Match
Also, it's possible to mix and match: I run packages from both MacPorts and Fink on the same machine quite happily. This approach might cause conflicts, however; make sure you don't install the same program via both projects.
X11 and Xcode
The majority of packages in Fink and MacPorts that use a GUI will need X11 to run. (If all you're going to run is command-line software, you don't need X11; neither Fink nor MacPorts use it per se.) X11 is available on the Apple DVD that came with your Mac, and as of the Leopard (10.5) release, it is installed automatically.
If you're running 10.4 (Tiger), you need to put your installation DVD into your Mac, click the Optional Installs package, then choose X11 when you get to the appropriate screen of the installer.
For MacPorts, you'll also need Xcode, which you can install either from the Mac OS X installation DVD or from the Apple Developer website [3].
Although you can install binary packages in Fink without Xcode, you'll need it if you want to install from source.

Encrypted Audio Transmission Using Synchronized Nd: YAG Lasers
Encoded information based on synchronization of coupled chaotic Nd:YAG lasers in master-slave configuration is numerically studied. Encoding, transmission, and decoding of information in optical chaotic communication with a single channel is presented. The authors analyze the robustness of the encrypted audio transmission in a channel noise. In order to illustrate this synchronization robustness, they present two cases of study: synchronization and transmission with a single channel without and with noise in the channel. Synchronization of chaotic systems has been greatly motivated by the possibility of encoding information by using a chaotic carrier.
