When I requested my airline tickets and gave them my dates, I did not receive a response for two weeks, and then it was a lame 'We have nothing available. Try again." email. No offer of help, no explanations, nothing. I changed my dates and resubmitted them, again all through a website - no live person - and received no answer.
This 'deal' is clearly a scam, since money was given in good faith, and no goods or services received, help extended, or refund offered. Buyer BEWARE!!! This company is taking your money, and NOT making good on their offers.

Repartnering after marital dissolution: Does context play a role?

|Italy, North-South gradient, repartnering, separation
This paper examines in depth the determinants of repartnering in Italy. With data from a national survey conducted in 2003, the effects of socio-economic, demographic and contextual characteristics on second-union formation among separated women are examined. The analysis is of particular interest in a country such as Italy, which is undergoing a transition from traditional to modern family behaviours. In addition, it allows us to verify the hypothesis that the importance of demographic factors in the repartnering process decreases as marital instability becomes more common. Results of event history analysis models confirm the basic hypothesis and show some unexpected effects.

AF Fine tuning on D800
My new 500VR seems to be front-focussing very slightly.
I sppent the day birding in the garden with roving flocks of wild finches. Typically shooting 1/1000 sec and f8 at quite close distances of 12 to 15 feet. Although the images are generally sharp, on most of the pics, even when I focus for the head, I am getting better sharpness in front of the selected focus area than behind it.
When setting an AF correction in the D800 menu a little diagram comes up. At one end is the camera, then a focal plane in the middle. a scale of 0 to -20 in front of the focal plane and 0 to 20 behind the plane represents the range of corrections.
If my lens is indeed front focussing, should my correction setting be positive (behind the focal plane) or negative (in front of the plane).
I have read and re-read the manual - it is not clear on this issue.

To adjust front focus move the fine tune + value further away from 0, this will adjust front focus.

Hi James,
With your lens mounted, once in the menu, if the starting point is say "0", you can't do
anything bad. If you try an adjustment that proves insufficient or overdone, just correct
again is the other direction.
There is a little bit of fiddling required here but you cannot damage anything. If you are
ultimately unhappy, just bring it back to zero, save and you will be at the same point.
If you do find your happiness however, save and leave the menu.
A couple of my lenses were not performing the expected way (85mm ƒ1,4 for one), I had
to do it myself and now all my lenses are giving me predictable results.
I would gladly see some pictures done before the adjustment. And after, of course!

Here is a sample of what I perceive to be slight front focussing.
The pic is a slightly downsampled crop that is otherwise unmodified.
the bird is a Bronze Mannikin (small finch about 2" in length). Shooting conditions f8, 1/250s fill-in flash with SB800, ISO 320. AFC single point. the focus point is in the white patch immediately to the left of the green patch on the wing.
What I am seeing is that although sharp the depth of field seems centred in front of the focus point. the focus fades quickly to the rear but look at the plant stalk that the bird is perched on. there is a zone somewhat in front of the focus point that seems even sharper. About 80% of my shots are coming out like this. Do you agree? comments welcome.

The first problem I immediately see and undoubtably due to the use of flash, is that the white feathers are blown out. For such a tiny bird (is it really only 2inches long?) the sharpness of the eye, beak and adjacent feathers are about the same sharpness to my eye as the branch. The branch is bending forward to, so could be at the same distance as the beak. I don't there much to worry about, however unless the bird was completely static 1/250 may be a bit slow.

Hey James,
I understand
1• that you are shooting with a D800 and a 500mm ƒ4 VR, very good weaponry
2• that you are shooting at f8, no much DoF but you should get at least a sharp area in the pict somewhere
3• that you are shooting at 1/250s, these are so swift that you could have chosen to shoot 4 times faster
4• that you are shooting at ISO 320, in those light conditions, you could have gone to 4x more to increase the speed
5• that you are shooting in AFC single point mode. This is not bad, but more points would be better
I will be honest with you, given the info provided,
I think you "{( could )}" be the cause of your own misery. Please, let me explain:
Even if you'd done every right:
ƒ8 +1/1000s + ISO 1200 + AFC 11 points
you could still come up with the same results !!!
"But why?" you will ask…
Before I blame your equipment, I will ask you one question. If I may:
Are you shooting in "Release Priority" or "Auto-Focus Priority" ?
If you were shooting in "Auto-Focus Priority"
Because the camera will not take the picture if it is not confirmed sharp
(the green dot at the bottom left of your viewfinder).
If not, I conclude that you are in "Release Priority" and there is the first place to check.
GO TO: Menu > Custom Setting Menu > a Autofocus >< from a1 to a8>.
1• Study the functions,
2• make the selections that best suit your work,
3• shoot some more birdies
4• don't forget to share!
Then, BUT ONLY THEN, will I consider blaming your equipment if you get bad pictures still.
But I want to see the pictures first! Promised?
Have a good time!

Thanks Kodiak
I will post a few more.
I was shooting with flash due to strong sunlight causing strong contrast in some of my previous shots. Using flash limits sync speed to 1/250. Auto FP flash at 1/320 is a waste of time because it weakens and extends the flash duration giving more opportunity for blur. the non flash shots were f8, 1/1000 sec, ISO 1600 and similar focus effects were observed. Lens mounted on a tripod with Wimberley head and VR in tripod mode. I will look for one or two pics taken without flash that show same effect and will also post one of the keepers that I got.
Regarding AF settings I use single point because aiming for the eye or head. If using 9 point AF the camera tends to pick up the breast of the bird which is slightly closer, or it picks up surrounding vegetation. At present, focus priority release is enabled so the camera is thinking it is in focus as you see the pic. this is why I think there is a slight front focus issue. My AF adjust setting is currently zero so there is plenty latitude for correction and I am not worried about it.
Heading for wintertime here and the days are short so I am not getting enough light to shoot before and after work ...will have to wait for the weekend to get some more test shots done.

Hi James,
This may answer your question...
Note the position of the legs relative to the outer side body and wings. If your bird had the same stance then focus on the branch should have been about a quarter to half inch or so in front of the legs.
I've pondered the same thing, on occasion, with a side angle like that, and came to the conclusion that the legs are usually - but not always! - inside of the body and therefore the perch should come to focus slightly in front of the feet.

#9. "RE: AF Fine tuning on D800" | In response to Reply # 0
A comment about the exposure...
The image I posted of the Prairie Warbler showing the leg geometry was almost the same exposure as you used. I shot manual exposure with iTTL flash, f/7.1 1/250s ISO 250. My flash was set to -1 eV flash exposure comp.
My image was actually an out-take. I shot almost 200 frames of that bird and when I shot that I was having great difficulty keeping up with exposure as it bounced around between some trees in very different light.
The yellow breast is a little hotter than I wanted and it would have been better at f/8 or f/9, and 1 2/3 or even -2 eV flash comp. That is more in line with the later images that will be my keepers.
I think you set up Auto ISO, with ISO set to 100, f/8 and 1/250s minimum shutter speed?
I can't do that with my D300 but if I had your camera I would have done about the same. I would, however, have set my flash comp to at least -1 eV and possibly -1 2/3 if that bird was generally fully out in the light.
I generally shoot 1/250s for two reasons... first I always shoot flash with song birds, and that shutter gives me max flash power, and the fastest recycle. I can go to 1/320s and only lose about 1/3 or maybe 1/2 stop of flash power but I got in the 1/250s habit. Not sure about the D800.
I don't have much luck with FP mode due to the distances.
Second, most of my birds are not usually out in nice light like my image here. They are usually in shade. Most birds seem to be more interested in hiding from hawks than posing for me in sunlight. In most cases, I'm lucky to get an ambient exposure at 1/250s at any aperture (usually shooting f/5.6 max with a TC) and ISO 400. And over time I've learned that ISO 400 f/8 1/250s is a very common eV level for me and ideally I want ISO 400 or less. You have at least a stop more latitude on that.
The downside is subject and camera motion, as Richard suggests. I just accept a lower yield in that way because in the end I usually get what I want. A lot of people are not comfortable at the 700mm I shoot at that shutter speed, and I would not argue that. This is just my way of doing things, right or wrong.
Now, the important point is that if you are going to hang around 1/250s, especially to power that flash, it argues even more strongly than we talked about in your tripod thread for a tripod on the beefy side. Just something to think about. Unless VR is going to bail you out- I don't consider that because I don't have it on my 500/4. And VR won't bail you out if the bird moves.
I think you did great, considering you have a lot to think about, just getting started with that lens. If there isn't much downsizing than I think the image is pretty sharp even if it could have possibly been a tad better. You just need to work on toning down the flash.
In general, the brighter the light the less flash you need. But if you are topping out your ISO such that the ambient is underexposed then you need to increase flash because then the image is relying on the flash. But those images will tend to look flashy and won't be your best work anyway. The best work will always be where nice light lit the bird and very toned down flash just filled in the shadows.
You might also consider reducing exposure comp a third or two in that bright light. It's good light for the training you are doing but tough light on the bird. Although I shoot manual exposure most of the time (birding) I am generally about 1/3 to 2/3 stop down per the meter.
Depends of course on the balance between the bird and the background and that varies enormously. The camera is mainly metering the background, not the bird. So you have to deal with that when you get into more difficult lighting.
What tripod did you use for that shoot?

#11. "RE: AF Fine tuning on D800" | In response to Reply # 9RWSTARRETT Nikonian since 03rd Feb 2009Wed 08-May-13 06:08 PM
So now I am confused. The D800 manual says: "A Auto FP High-Speed Sync
Allows the flash to be used at the highest shutter speed supported by
the camera, making it possible to choose the maximum aperture for
reduced depth of field even when the subject is backlit in bright
sunlight. The information display flash mode indicator shows "FP"
when auto FP high-speed sync is active (0185)." So I shoot birds at 1/2000 or whatever, usually with the flash at a reduced output such as -0.5. With a 500mm f4 you clearly need a fast shutter speed and even if there is enough light, you don't want to shoot at f16 because you want to blur the backround. I don't think I have ever shot birds at 1/250th. The shot below was at 1/2000 and f5.6.

Interestingly I have shot birds at exactly 1/250, which is most unusual for me as I use upwards of 1/800 for bird photography. However in the case below I used a SB-800 flash in FP because the Waxwing would have been silhouetted otherwise and the results worked well. I know we are talking about a D800, but I am posting this just as an example of slow speed via flash.

I finally did a bit of testing using a printed AF target this evening. I have settled on a AF correction of +2 and will try that for a while. the lens is basically bang-on but since the Af will tend to lock onto the front of any object one aims at, some of the available depth of field will actually be wasted in dead space in front of the target whereas I want as much of the target in focus as possible. My new setting will actually result in very slight back-focussing but it's deliberate and I will try it for a while. for small birds at close range it may work but I suspect it will trip me up on larger subjects and longer ranges.
Here's one of my keepers from the other day.
A little bit OT for this thread but Auto FP flash deserves mention...
The fastest flash sync speed on D800 is 1/250th. At any higher shutter speed, there is no time at which both leading and trailing shutter curtains are fully open, so using flash at higher speeds would result in exposing only a strip of the image to the flash.
Auto FP Sync flash modifies the flash duration.....it makes the flash duration longer (and consequently weaker) by using "electrickery". The flash starts to light before the shutter opens and continues to light until after it has closed. This way, the entire frame can be exposed to light from the flash.
downsides of AUto FP flash :
1) flash exposure is much weaker
2) long flash duration does not freeze subject motion. with birds, if the flash startles them, its duration is now long enough to capture their reaction (seen this a few times).

Wombat Security Technologies is a company born from research at the world-renowned Carnegie Mellon University (CMU). In June 2008 the company was founded by Drs. Lorrie Cranor, Jason Hong, and Norman Sadeh, all faculty members at the CMU School of Computer Science.
While at CMU, our cofounders lead the largest national research project on combating phishing attacks. Their goal was to address the human element in cyber security and develop novel, more effective anti-phishing filtering solutions.
This project, which was funded by the National Science Foundation and the Department of Defense, yielded a uniquely effective suite of cyber security software training and filtering technologies. These technologies provided the foundation for Wombat Security Technologies' line of products and continue to be refined and extended by our co-founders.
Today Wombat Security Technologies, headquartered in Pittsburgh, PA, provides information security awareness and training software to help organizations teach their employees secure behavior. Our Security Education Platform includes integrated knowledge assessments, a library of simulated attacks, and interactive training modules, which have been proven to reduce successful phishing attacks and malware infections by up to 90%.

We have worked with the Downtown Alliance on a variety of projects to promote downtown Salt Lake City.
In our 3rd rendition of their website, we worked with staff to focus our efforts on a greater emphasis on photography, simplified navigation, more home page-accessible content and streamlined (i.e. shorter!) content throughout the site.
The results are a striking, modern site which still maintains its tradition of being the go-to spot for all things Downtown — dining, shopping, and entertainment.

I have walked cemeteries since the 1980's and I have no problem adding info to the memorials that I have created but I would prefer that you send an email to me so that I can add the info. I have had people contact me and want to know where the info came from and it is so much easier for me to add the contact information from an email. I will add the contact info to the memorials so if you don't want that on the info you need to let me know.

Glenwood Cemetery
Hi Jean, S Price Nance suggested I contact you with a couple of questions I have about my descendants. Do you know if there are any old graves without headstones? I know James and Tamsey Cline Hammond's son Thomas Hammond b. 29 May 1875 d. 24 May 1922 is buried there as I have his obit but I don't think there is a headstone. I added a memorial for him #161419744. I also think George A. Cline b. 10 Oct 1860 d. 3 Nov 1881 may be buried in Glenwood but can't find an obit for him. Just thought maybe there are people buried there that no longer have headstones. Thanks!

Miriam Walker Williams
Hi Jean! First I want to thank you for creating the memorial for Miriam Williams. I've sent you a couple of automatic edits--one for her maiden name Walker, and the other giving a transcription from the marker of her age at death. The main reason I started to send anything at all was that I noticed that you have her age at death as 61 years. Upon studying the nice photo you posted of the marker, I saw that it says 64 instead. The slanted part of the 4 is not as clear to see as the vertical part. I think you'll see the same number shown as in the 14 for the number of days.
Thanks again for your work and the nice photo!

Then your e-mail came & I had to figure it out all over agiain. I had to go to my corrections which was also hard to figure out. I had to pretend to do a update to see all of my updates that I have made.

Ok. I figured out why I sent this e-mail to you.
William G Oliver #35131702 was married to Keziah Huchinson Oliver # 35131714.
You have him married to Keziah Oliver #3015165. He was not married to her.

Milwaukee Music Video: Introducing rap newcomer $killz
The already busy local hip-hop scene has just gotten a little more crowded. For full-length "Watch and Learn," Anthony "$killz" Kolstad spits fast rhymes, and gets a nice boost from Aderson "Lib" Gonzalez (who worked on Yo-Dot's "Red Mist," one of my favorite local albums last year.)
Check out the video for "Watch" track "Livin' My Dream" below - but beware, there is some salty language here. »Read Full Blog Post

Robert DeLong didn't start out loving electronic dance music
Summerfest is best utilized for catching acts on the way up, not just seeing established headliners. Among the most promising up-and-comers at this year's Big Gig is electronic dance artist Robert DeLong.

Why study Business and Management?
You will engage in the advanced study of a diverse range of organisations and the rapidly changing environments in which they operate both nationally and internationally. You will enhance both your academic research skills and the practical management skills that you will need in order to manage human resources, complex organisational systems and the challenging issues affecting business in a rigorous, pragmatic and effective manner.

The Master's degree is offered in a modular format offering participants the greatest choice in tailoring their final degree content to match their academic interest and future career development.

The third option is to elect Accounting as a specialist pathway that will enable you to understand and practice financial management in the business context.

International Business and Management (30 credits)
This module is an advanced learning of international business management in the context of the dynamic, comprehensive and complex nature of this topic.

This module aims to develop student's analytical skills of the essential principles of international business and management especially those relating to the initial stages of involvement in international business. It examines the decisions that have to be taken by international managers from an integrated functional perspective, against the dynamic global environment in which those decisions are made.
Trimester 2 (60 credits)
All students take four half-modules. Students within the specialist pathway degrees take two compulsory half-modules and each half-module forming a key component of their discipline of choice. Students can then choose two further optional half-modules from other disciplines, designed to enable them to tailor their degree whilst demonstrating the broadening of their knowledge and understanding from an interdisciplinary perspective.

Trimester 3
Dissertation/Consultancy Project (60 credits)
After successfully completing trimester 1 and 2, Master's students choose to work on a dissertation or a consultancy project (15,000 words). This is supported by a nominated supervisor. The module and embedded research methods workshops commences with a series of taught interventions designed to promote scholarly endeavour in the research context, which results in the formulation of clearly articulated research proposal outlining your research questions and the framing of the detailed work to be undertaken.
The dissertation is expected to be a scholarly work (that is, based on sound academic principles) that makes a contribution to a field of knowledge. It enables you to demonstrate your ability to use learning derived from your studies to resolve a problem, answer a question or prove/disprove a hypothesis related to business, markets, or organisations.
The Consultancy Project is expected to be a competently structured and professionally implemented investigation into a real-world issue being faced by a real-life organisation and will combine a sound base of investigative theory with a pragmatic and practical application to the practitioner environment. It enables you to demonstrate your ability to use learning derived from your past studies to confront and resolve a management problem or issue.

What students say...
"I thoroughly enjoyed the MA Business and Management course because it enabled me to put theory into practise and link theories to real life scenarios. Modules of particular interest were Service and Relationship Management, Marketing Management and Marketing Communications. The course moulds you into an independent academic by providing you with plenty of free time to conduct your own research whilst being able to contact your lecturers if you need the support".
Alex Peter, graduated in 2012, previous supervisor at White Stuff Ltd.
"I choose the course because I wanted to increase my academic expertise further in a business related field. I felt that the course content was very practically applicable to real business scenarios at a strategic level and offered a good range of business topics within the modules. I found it particularly impressive that the course lecturers have significant industry experience, are genuinely interested in their students' success and were exceptionally supportive. Additionally, having the option to conduct the research project as a consultancy piece was an attractive option from an employability angle after graduating. I believe that having a post graduate qualification increased my employability prospects. I would highly recommend the course to anyone looking to further their academic business knowledge. Whether from a business related background or looking to change their specialism, the course is equally beneficial. Just be prepared for the intensity of course, as modules are run over short periods. You do need to be organised to manage the workload but this also means the course content is very varied and interesting and topics stay fresh".
Harriet Formby, 2013 Graduate, Finance Trainee at FDWORKS (http://www.fd-works.co.uk/)
'I enjoyed my time and experience at Bath Spa University. I decided to study the MA business and Management course to improve my knowledge and understanding of business practice. Having previously studied at a different university in a different subject I was impressed with the structure of the course and found the advice from the tutors helpful during the research dissertation project. I would thoroughly recommend this course whether or not you have a background in business management. In my personal experience I grew in confidence as a result of the course because for me it was a subject I had not previously studied. I acquired new knowledge and understanding of commercial awareness from the various modules I chose. The course is intensive and requires an amount of commitment and organisation, which is especially important during the research/consultancy project. However the university provides an excellent and tranquil environment in which to study.'
James Macdonald, 2013 Graduate, Business Development intern at Sally Narrowboats

Hi friends,
So I have a blog, and the client wants particular category posts to show up in thier own page. I've gotten that to work, but I need it so that the posts also have the "read more" functionality tagged on to them on the "press" page as well as on the "blog" page.
I've gotten the read more part so show up on blog posts by using the code below, but would it be possible to apply the same thing to posts posted in a particular category as well??? I'm sort o fon my last legs here. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
The blog posts use the read more functionality with this code:
function new_excerpt_more($more) {
global $post;
return 'ID) . '"> </br>Read More > ';
add_filter('excerpt_more', 'new_excerpt_more');
Now, would it be possible to apply the same to get it to work on posts posted in a particular category??

Although it had appeared in Abu Dhabi that Sergio Perez was closing in on a new deal following some strong performances, his lacklustre pace at Yas Marina prompted fresh questions about his future.
With McLaren having made it clear for months that Perez's consistency was its main concern, it is understood that the outfit was unimpressed about how his race in Abu Dhabi compared to that of Jenson Button, who had been forced to pit for a new nose early on.
McLaren team principal Martin Whitmarsh even publicly said that Perez's result there was "disappointing", while deliberately praising Button's form on a weekend when the team had been expected to take a decent haul of points.
In the wake of that race, senior McLaren staff members are understood to have spent time this week evaluating the driver issue.
Although no final decision has been taken, sources suggest that there is now a widespread feeling within the team that Magnussen should be given the nod, and it is suggested that he is actually now favourite to replace Perez.
As well as winning the Formula Renault 3.5 championship this year, Magnussen has impressed McLaren in his two F1 test outings.
Only last month Whitmarsh praised his pace amid a push to get him an F1 seat in 2014.
"He has had two runs in an F1 car [and] in Abu Dhabi, on his third flying lap, he did a time that was good enough for sixth on the grid, which is pretty impressive," said Whitmarsh.
