The competitors of the Rotax MAX Challenge portion of Formula Kart Productions' Florida Winter Tour, presented by Ocala Gran Prix, were back in action today to set their qualifying times for this, the last weekend of racing in the 2014 Tour. To say, yet again, that the weather was spectacular and the conditions were perfect may actually be a bit of an understatement. To put it another way; today was further proof of why the Florida Winter Tour is known as "THE Winter Place to Be!"
Over the years, Formula Kart Productions has pioneered many advancements in how races are run and how they are seen. One such innovation is FWT LIVE!, the sport's original live streaming broadcast with audience interactivity. One of the people responsible for making that happen is Michael Scott Wright, the producer of FWT LIVE!. Although Michael has been working with FWT LIVE! since its introduction in 2009, he has actually been with Formula Kart productions doing odd jobs for longer than he can remember.
As the nephew of Formula Kart Production's owner Bill Wright, Michael says his memories of working kart racing go back to the first kart race Bill ever promoted which was held on the Driver's Ed course at a local high school. As such, Michael has a great perspective on where the FWT has grown and evolved over the years. "Everything has grown," he says of the Tour. "Not just the number of competitors, which is obvious. But, the number of people hired to put on these events."
When not at the race track Michael works in office building maintenance back home in Tallahassee, FLA. For fun, he says he loves watching sports, especially if the Florida State University Seminoles are competing. "I love all types of sports," he says, "but, if FSU is competing, I'm in. I don't care if it's basket weaving. If FSU is in it, I'll cheer them on." Loyalty like that is just one of Michael's admirable qualities. As a popular member of the Formula Kart Production's "Fun-Team", Michael Scott Wright is an invaluable asset in keeping the Florida Winter Tour events running strong.
Those who have been watching the results for the Formula TaG Cadet and Mini MAX classes this year have seen the name d'Orlando a lot this year. Brothers Michael and Nicholas d'Orlando have had a great season by all accounts and are looking to build on their performances for the future. Last week Michael (12) wrapped up the Formula TaG Cadet championship of the FWT Formula Kart Racing Championship while younger brother Nicholas (10) was third.
The brothers, who hail from Westchester, New York, said they were attracted to racing from a young age and that their earliest memories were watching NASCAR on TV with their mom and dad. Around that time their father suped-up and electric car for them to drive around the yard and it wasn't long until there was a path worn in the grass around their house. "They'd drive that until it broke, then I'd fix it and they'd drive it until it broke again," he said. Knowing this couldn't go on forever and wanting to find vehicles more suitable to the punishment these two youngsters could dish out, their mom did an internet search for karting and found nearby Oakland Valley Race Park. As a late birthday present they got their sons into a five-hour race school when they were five and six years old. One thing led to another and soon they had taken second and fourth in their very first race against some stiff competition.
For Michael, he says his favorite thing about racing is the competition and that he is really driven to win. Although he also enjoys basketball and cross country running, racing is a sport that fits him. Although, he did add that a lot of his friends back home just don't understand racing and how tough it is. Perhaps someday he'll get the opportunity to teach them.
Nicholas, the younger son who turns 11 next month, says his favorite part about karting is going fast and competing against other talented drivers. He was also sincere in adding that he really likes the friends he's made in the sport through the last few years, and feels that is one of the best things karting has to offer. When time allows, Nicholas also likes playing basketball and football as well as lacrosse. Both brothers say they ultimately would like to race Formula One.
SH Racing sponsored Rotax DD2
The first group to set their qualifying times in each queue was the combined entrants in DD2 and DD2 Masters. The drivers of the fast DD2 machines hit the track for Sunday qualifying precisely on time and it would be perennial FWT frontrunner Nick Neri (USA) setting the pace with a lap of 51.385 seconds to set the fastest official lap of the day of any competitor. Second quickest for Sunday's grid would be three-time Rotax World Champion Ben Cooper (UK/Canada) who was back in a DD2 after racing in Homestead and Ocala in Senior MAX.
In the afternoon session to set the grid in Saturday's DD2 pre-final Nick Neri once again beat the best the field could offer with a lap of 51.641. Second fastest time would go to Nick's Ocala Gran Prix teammate Jonathan Kotyk (USA) with a lap just 0.019 of a second adrift of Neri but 0.191 faster than Cooper in third.
Decal Zone sponsored DD2 Masters
The DD2 Masters were also hard at work setting their fast laps to qualify for this weekend's races. In the morning session to set the grid for Sunday's races Andreas Fonseca (Costa Rica) beat out Luis Schiavo (Venezuela) to claim top honors. However, Schiavo would come back in the afternoon's session to claim Sunday's Koene USA P1 Pole Award with a lap of 52.488 seconds. Joining Schiavo on the front row in Sunday's DD2 Masters pre-final will be Derek Wang (USA) who timed in second quick just over a tenth of a second off Schiavo's time.
PSL Karting sponsored Rotax Junior
In Junior MAX, Patricio O'Ward will be starting Saturday's pre-final from the P1 pole position with point's leader Pedro Cardoso (Brazil) alongside. This is good news for Pedro; however his main rival for the championship, Austin Garrison (USA), will be right behind him in third.
For Sunday's pre-final, the P1 Pole Position award went to Canadian Gianfranco Mazzaferro who turned in a fast time of 54.075 to beat O'Ward by just 0.045 of a second. Starting third on Sunday's Junior MAX grid is Austin Versteeg (USA), just ahead of Nick Brueckner (USA) who is starting fourth both days.
Rolison Performance Group sponsored MAX Masters
Luis Schiavo has been the top dog in MAX Masters all season long and today was no different. In the morning session to set Sunday's grid Luis was 0.515 of a second faster than second quick Brian McHattie. In the afternoon session for Saturday's pre-final grid Schiavo was again fastest with McHattie second. This time, the gap was 0.628 of a second.
With his amazing qualifying performances this season in both Masters classes, Luis Schiavo wrapped up the top honors for an adult driver in Koene USA's P1 Pole Position Award contest for the 2014 Florida Winter Tour. In addition to the $200 cash award, Luis picked up enough P1 Pole Position stickers this year to cover just about anything he wants to, including himself.
AM Engines sponsored Rotax Mini MAX
As the 38-strong Mini MAX competitors took to the 0.700 mile Orlando Kart Center circuit for their qualifying sessions, no one could say with any certainty who would come out on top. The Florida Winter Tour has been known for years to have the world's strongest and deepest fields in both Micro and Mini MAX, and this year is no exception.
In the end, Matthew Latifi (Canada) would come out on top for Saturday's pre-final grid with a lap of 57.029 seconds while Sunday's pre-final will be paced by Mathias Soler (Colombia). Emiliano Richards (Mexico) will start both days' pre-finals from the outside of the front row as he looks to take home an FWT Palm.
GT7 Motorsports sponsored Micro MAX
Jeremy Fairbairn (USA) has been working very hard on his qualifying this year and it paid off as he set the fastest time for Saturday's Micro MAX pre-final. Fairbairn's fast lap of 1:00.564 led the way over Micro MAX point's leader Reece Gold (USA) in second and Matheus Morgatto (Brazil) in third. With Gold and Morgatto one-two in points, this will be an interesting battle to watch onsite or on FWT LIVE!
Jak Crawford put everything together in the morning session to take Sunday's Micro MAX pole position with a lap of 1:00.357 seconds. Behind Crawford in second and third are Sebastian Montoya (Colombia) and Reece Gold who are separated in the time standings by just 0.001 of a second.
MRP Motorsport sponsored Rotax Senior
The Florida Winter Tour Senior MAX field is stacked with talent from top to bottom. Leading the way for Saturday's Senior MAX races will be 2009 Senior MAX World Champion Luke Varley (UK), who scorched the warm afternoon tarmac with a lap of 53.296 to take pole by just 0.004 over Jamaican Thomas Issa in second.
In the morning session to set Sunday's Senior MAX pre-final grid, class point's leader Oliver Askew (USA) took care of business by setting the Koene USA P1 Pole Position with a lap of 53.227. Second on Sunday's grid will be Luke Varley with second-in-points Kyle Kirkwood (USA) just behind in third.

They don't know how to diagnose problems, they only know how to do a complete overhaul.
I'm willing to bet they showed you a small bit of bronze/aluminum powder in the oil pan and said "The transmission is worn out" that powder is from manufacturing and is not Wear
Very old trick, Non-Mechanics don't know this.
In today's computer controlled transmissions there's a 50/50 chance it's the programming and NOT wear, but then they disassemble the trans and hold you for ransom.
I'll bet when they get it running again it does the same "Flare" and they'll refuse to either fix or refund, that's how they profit.
I worked very briefly for "Mr Transmission", they fired me when I would not go along with their "Bronze/Aluminum bits in the pan" scheme, and told the customer what was really wrong. (Second gear band adjustment, Ford C-4)
I don't trust any transmission builder except the dealership (Whatever make you own) WE know tricks and get bulletins the Transmission shops don't.
Sounds to me the "Kickdown" is adjusted a bit sensitively and needs to be adjusted for more throttle before downshifting, NOT OVERHAULING.
Too late now.

An insurance company designates 10% of its customers as high risk and 90% as low risk.
The number of claims made by a customer in a calendar year is Poisson distributed with
mean θ and is independent of the number of claims made by a customer in the previous
calendar year. For high risk customers, θ = 0.6, while for low risk customers θ = 0.1.
Calculate the expected number of claims made in calendar year 1998 by a customer who
made one claim in calendar year 1997.
My solution:
Given that claims made by a customer in a year are independent of those made in the previous year, I disregarded the 1997 claim filing.
For any year, the probability that a customer makes one claim would be -
f(k) = [0.1 * (e ^ -0.6) * (0.6 ^ k) / k! ] + [0.9 * (e ^ -0.1) * (0.1 ^ k) / k! ]
E(x) = ∑ xf(x)
works out to 0.1*0.6 + 0.9*0.1 = 0.15
doesnt match the key
I am way off here, i guess!
Hi getback();
I have this in my notes and .1 and .9 are not the probabilities of a high and low risk. Use Bayes theorem there.
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
Got it - so use baye's theorem to get the probability for high risk and low risk drivers in 1998 given that he had one claim and then use the logic I did
Try that and see what you get.
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.

WINDSOR, S.C. (WRDW) -- A controversial potato farm in Aiken County is once again in the spotlight after several people living in the area say it's causing problems in their area. Back in March, Walther Farms began planting potatoes; making it the largest potato farm in South Carolina
The farm has stirred controversy, raised eyebrows, and made headlines. Some say the Michigan-based farm has moved to its location outside Windsor to take advantage of South Carolina's weak river laws and drain the nearby South Edisto River dry.
The farm, a supplier of potatoes for the Frito-Lay company, originally had plans to pump 9.6 billion gallons of water from the South Edisto River every year. While the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (DHEC) predicted the withdrawals wouldn't harm the river, many members of the public weren't so sure.
The farm will reduce the amount it withdraws from the river by 50 percent, it will work with the United States Geological Survey (USGS) to install a monitoring station that will track flow rates to "promote responsible water use and awareness," it will drill a backup well on the Aiken County portion of the farm to supplement river water during times of drought, and it will drill wells in the portion of the farm in Barnwell County (known as the Wiley Fork Farm) to avoid pumping the 3 billion gallons of water from the river that DHEC was in the process of considering.
"I think that folks will see that potatoes aren't a whole lot different than what's grown in the area right now," said Jeremy Walther, co-operator of the farm. "We are a family farm. The farm started back in the '40s with my grandfather, then my dad and three of my uncles carried on from there, and now there's myself, three of my brothers, and five of my cousins involved."
But Gordon Curry says that hasn't kept the pull of the farm from affecting his water system.
"We've been here 8 1/2 years and I've never had any problem," says Curry. "Until they started pulling 12 million gallons a day out of the Edisto River."
On Monday, Curry says when he went to turn on his sprinkler system, it turned on just fine. Forty five minutes later, it was off. He called a well expert to determine if the problem was on his end.
"In my professional opinion," says Brian Coleman with Bobby Owens Pump and Well Service. "The potato farm, that's less than two miles away, they're pumping so many gallons of water that it's causing the water table to fall."
Back in February, State Senator George E. "Chip" Campsen, III of Charleston, introduced a bill that he believes would curb the draw of water by the farm be requiring a permit to do just that.
"There needs to be an overarching provision that says, essentially, if you're going to take a certain percentage of the river's flow, you need to have a permit," said Senator Campsen.

As of this writing, we have complet
ed second reading on the budget. Despite some challenges, Bluffton, as well as Beaufort and Jasper counties, are looking at good outcomes relative to past budgets.
Last week, I gave you some background as to how our oceanfront management laws and regulations have evolved over the years.
Last week, I promised to provide some background and thought on the work of the Blue Ribbon Committee on Shoreline Management, as well as the bill I have filed, H.3378, the Public Beach Protection Act.
Last week was a marathon at the Statehouse. As a member of leadership, I arrive early and stay late, but there were just not sufficient hours to get it all done. That said, we did hit it a pretty good lick.
We had another busy week at the Statehouse, particularly regarding financial matters that come under the oversight of Ways and Means Committee.
It was a really busy week at the Statehouse. Fortunately, between committee and subcommittee meetings, there was time to meet with a good crowd of home folks from Bluffton and Beaufort County.
I want to thank all of you who continue to email or call about the medical marijuana column. This issue has hit a nerve around the country, especially among folks who have not been particularly well-served by conventional medicine.
Second week of session finds your delegation hard at it. This representative has been working mainly on putting the budget in shape.
Last week, I asked for your take on the medical marijuana law filed by my friend and delegation partner, Sen. Tom Davis. From the moment the column appeared in the Jan. 14 paper, I have continued to receive a torrent of comment.
After a very busy fall and early winter, we are finally in legislative session.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) - U.S. captain Tom Watson says he would be foolish not to consider Tiger Woods as one of his wild-card selections for the Ryder Cup.
Woods missed the cut by five shots at the PGA Championship, just five days after he withdrew from a World Golf Championship because of a sore back. Woods missed three months this summer recovering from March 31 back surgery.
Watson doesn't make his three captain's picks for three more weeks. Woods isn't playing in any of those tournaments.
Watson said Monday he will continue to speak with Woods. The 64-year-old captain says he would base his decision on what Woods tells him. Watson says the 14-time major champion can still bring plenty to the American team, and "I'd be a fool not to consider him."

While the snow may make driving tricky, police in Floyd County say it helped them catch a man they believe stole items from a Johnson County home.
Prestonsburg Police say 28 year old David Caudill tried to leave the scene of an accident, but the driver Caudill hit boxed him in and that's when police say the Johnson County man jumped out of his SUV and ran away. Police knew what direction Caudill was going thanks to the snow.
Authorities say Caudill left his footprints behind in the snow giving police a clear path and they say if it was not for the snow, Caudill may have gotten away.
"We had officers on both sides of the river on the railroad tracks searching for him and when the officer got close to him, he must have heard him coming and decided to go to the other side of the culvert and back up by the highway across the road and that's where we caught him over by Reno's," said Det. Steve Little with the Prestonsburg Police Department. "The biggest thing was we got our man it was a good thing, Mother Nature helped us out".
Authorities say Caudill is in the Floyd County Jail on charges stemming from the accident. Police also discovered stolen goods in Caudill's SUV. Now he and his girlfriend, Heather Castle, are charged with two counts of receiving stolen property.
Detectives say Caudill took a kids motorcycle and ATV Tuesday night from a home in Johnson County.

This is a site to keep an eye on, despite the fact that (while writing this) the homepage flashed the disclaimer that the page is "currently undergoing radical software updates." Curated by the Centre for Molecular Medicine and the Bioinformatics Institute in Singapore, the Human Intermediate Filament Database includes sequence information for the various genes encoding intermediate filaments. These proteins are vitally important to the integrity of the cytoskeleton of a cell, and mutations in these genes have been implicated in a number of dermatological conditions. The database looks to catalog such genetic variations in these genes, and indeed, visitors to the site are invited to submit variants to the database. Beyond providing sequence information, the website also includes information about different intermediate filament disorders, as well as a number of links to other resources (a large number of which are for patient support groups).

Don't drink the water, says 4th-largest Ohio city
TOLEDO, Ohio -- Toxins possibly from algae on Lake Erie fouled the water supply of the state's fourth-largest city Saturday, forcing officials to issue warnings not to drink the water and the governor to declare a state of emergency as worried residents descended on stores, quickly clearing shelves of bottled water.
"It looked like Black Friday," said Aundrea Simmons, who stood in a line of about 50 people at a pharmacy before buying four cases of water. "I have children and elderly parents. They take their medication with water."
The city advised about 400,000 residents in Toledo, most of its suburbs and a few areas in southeastern Michigan not to drink brush their teeth with the water, and not to boil the water because that would only increase the toxin's concentration. The mayor also warned that children should not shower or bathe in the water and that it shouldn't be given to pets.
Toledo issued the warning just after midnight after tests at one treatment plant showed two sample readings for microsystin above the standard for consumption.
Algae blooms during the summer have become more frequent and troublesome around the western end of Lake Erie, the shallowest of the five Great Lakes.
The algae growth is fed by phosphorous mainly from farm fertilizer runoff and sewage treatment plants, leaving behind toxins that have contributed to oxygen-deprived dead zones where fish can't survive. The toxins can kill animals and sicken humans.
Scientists had predicted a significant bloom of the blue-green algae this year, but they didn't expect it to peak until early September.
Gov. John Kasich's emergency order issued Saturday allowed the state to begin bringing water into the Toledo area. Large containers were being filled with water at a prison near Columbus and trucked about 130 miles north to Toledo, said Joe Andrews, a spokesman for the Ohio Department of Public Safety.
The state also asked major grocery chains to divert as much water as they can.
As truckloads of water came in from across the state, Toledo leaders set up distribution centers at schools around the city, limiting families to one case of bottled water.

Kyle Prall, flying monkey for Star Nine Ventures and co-owner of KGP(Mugly) Media/Citizen's Information Associates, will tell you his business has nothing to do with Star Nine. But don't ask him to explain this...
Co-Founder and CEO of Mugly Media, Kyle Prall, stated, Star Nine Ventures, through Citizens Information Assoc. [continued below]....
Ambitous words taken out of a news article (recently removed) that originated from a press release out of Star Nine's office that he claims are untrue.
Ryan Russell, CEO of Star Nine Ventures and round-faced coward, is even more grandiloquent...
Through a lot of hardwork and focus we have been fortunate to sustain substantial revenue growth across our own portfolio, allowing our company to ramp online and offline ventures, this acquisition being one ofseveral planned for 2011 said Ryan Russell, CEO of Star NineVentures. We have our sightsset on building the largest online portfolio of public information and novel data driven concepts.
I've tried to contact Mr. Russell but he has taken advice from the bad pr playbook and chooses to ignore the situation because he knows he is BUSTED. If you had a clue you wouldn't rely on free pr websites to promote your so-called marketing effort. If you are not a coward then please provide a rebuttal to this report.
And then there is Jeremy Brooks who doesn't have very many good hair days...
This is an exciting acquisition, we envision immense growth for this concept across both online and offline channels, said Jeremy Brooks, Executive Vice President of Star NineVentures and Managing Partner of Citizens Information Assoc., a subsidiary of Star Nine Ventures.
What pisses me off about this guy is you can tell he is such a want-to-be and he thinks he is funny...
How much more fun of a design can you work on? Your creating a logo for a website that has the funniest mugshots (arrest pics) of people that get in trouble and arrested by the police..
Funny and EVEN UGLY is key!!! Ugly - ugly characters!!!
Jeremy, just because you are bald and goofy doesn't mean you have to be stupid too.
All I want to see is some accountability on the part of Star Nine. I've choosen not to include the other low-lives who work at Star Nine because my original report hurt their feelings. Gentleman, I'm sorry we couldn't be friends but if you will just stop lying and come forward in verifying what is blatanly true I'll go away.
Since the holiday season is fast approaching, I would like yall to exhibit your goodwill and offer to remove mugshots from your precious search engines for FREE to anyone who objects for any reason. :)

It is with great sadness, that after a thorough period of reconciliation and continued exploration, the Bladder and Bowel Foundation are at a point where the operation of our charity has become unable to be maintained financially. It is a challenging time for the charitable sector and funding is becoming more and more difficult to secure. The board of trustees and operational team are currently doing everything in their power to transfer the legacy of work, we have strived so tirelessly to deliver to the public and the healthcare community over the past 24 years. We thank every individual, partner and company for their amazing support, personal time and donations over the years and feel proud of the support we have provided but are now unable to continue delivering in the future – Alan Cottenden (Chairman)

Skill Level Appropriate for all
As the photographic community and others know, capturing images in the RAW format is unquestionably better than any other format. Therefore, you will even hear the joke which says you should always shoot in the RAW, but don't shoot in the buff, because you might get arrested. And it's true, working with RAW files is superior to any other format. Yet, one of the questions that we need to consider is which type of RAW format, especially as we start to work with Adobe Camera Raw. Now, we have two options. We can either work with the Native RAW file that comes straight off the camera.
That's going to be the NEF file or the CR2 file, or whatever file format your particular camera manufacturer creates when you capture an image in the RAW. Or we can take this RAW file, and we can convert it to a format, which is called the Digital Negative, or DNG file. What I want to do here is simply take a look at how we can work with both of these formats. Take a look at some of the pros and cons. So that you can make an educated decision about which format will work best for you. All right. Well, let's start off with the Original or Native file format.
Now, let's say that I am shooting with my Canon 5D Mark II and I capture this image. It's a .CR2. Well, if I then open that image up inside of Adobe Camera Raw and make some adjustments, those adjustments will be saved in a Sidecar XMP file. Now, the Sidecar file is simply a set of text instructions. And these instructions say, "Display this image with more contrast, more color saturation, or a little bit of this color shift or just a creative effect or whatever it is." That's really the beauty of working with Adobe Camera Raw, in that we are not actually modifying pixels, rather we are simply changing a set of instructions.
Now, the nice thing about this is it works really quickly, doesn't increase file size, and it's just a great way to go. Now, the down side of this is that let's say we decide to move this image onto another hard drive. Well, as I move this image, there is a chance that the connection between the RAW file and the XMP file could be lost. For example, we could kind of leave this file behind, so to speak. Then we would lose actually all of our processing. While on the upside, one of the reasons why many people like keeping their files in this Native format is that then they can actually process their files in Adobe Camera Raw and also open them up in the camera manufacturer's software.
And the argument goes that you can then take advantage of some proprietary information that the camera company knows in order to process your image in perhaps a more effective way. All right. Well, how then does that compare to the DNG format? Well, the same thing happens with the DNG format. We start off by capturing our image in the Native RAW format. Then what we can do is convert our image to this DNG format. Now, when we do that, it's as if it puts the RAW data, the file, and also all of this XMP information in a little container.
The nice thing about this is we don't really ever need to know that any kind of XMP file actually exists, because it puts it all in one location. And not only that, this little container, which contains RAW data and this XMP data, has some compression. In other words, it makes our file a little bit smaller. So the argument or the advantage goes that what you can do is, when you move this or if you move this to another hard drive, all of this information travels together. There's no chance that the information will ever be lost or separated.
And the nice thing about this is it gives us a little bit more of a safety net so that we are not going to lose all the work that we have invested into a particular photograph. All right. Well, let's take a look at this perhaps in a little bit more particular terms. So what exactly is this DNG format? Well, really what it is it's Adobe's way of saying, hey, let's have an open, non-proprietary RAW format. In other words, let's kind of lift the lid on things, rather than keep secrets. Let's say that this is a format that anyone can access and understand. Well, why would you want to do that? Well, some of the pros for this are we don't need XMP files.
It also contains some previews. There's some compression. In other words, the file will be significantly smaller. And also, it's going to increase our archival confidence. In other words, let's say 40 years from now, the software manufacturer, which, i.e., is the camera manufacturer, may actually not support certain file types. Well, in this case we have this assurance that moving forward this DNG file format will be more supported, especially since Adobe is behind it, which is a software company. The other advantage is that it give us a single RAW processing solution.
Rather than having to jump between different applications, we can all process our images in one context. Now, the cons I have alluded to a little bit. One of them is that we are converting our proprietary RAW files to another format. And also, once we do that, we can't go backwards and then use our camera manufacturer's software. So then what's the conclusion? Well, you need to make the decision for yourself, but for my own work, I have adopted a complete 100% DNG workflow. And I have done so because of these different advantages listed here.
Whenever I can get a smaller file size, I am all about that. Also, dropping the need for XMP files, having the single RAW processing solution, and also the confidence that this brings, in regards to having these images being able to be accessed and opened in the future. Now, of course, you are going to need to make your own decision. So if you want to learn more about this DNG format, what you can do is go ahead and navigate over to Adobe's site. And if you navigate to Adobe.com/products /dng, there you can read and learn more about this DNG format.
I also want to highlight here that if you do decide to adopt this DNG format, here at the same location you can actually download what's called the DNG Converter, either for Windows or for Mac, which allows you to convert your Native RAW files into this format. We will be talking a little bit more about saving to DNG, or converting to DNG in the next movie. So let's pick up this conversation in the next one.

Wonderfull shot Albert! The B&W effect is excellent!
Cheers, Alex
Wallace Rivera, AlexMatos: Thank you very much! The original colour picture was naturally almost black and white. Only the sand kept its natural colour. So, it was obvious, that I have to convert it to B&W.

The effect of two atypical antipsychotics on QTc intervals (heart rate-corrected QT interval) was evaluated. Patients (N=109) with schizophrenia (79%) or schizoaffective disorder (21%) were randomly assigned in 2 : 2 : 1 ratio to paliperidone extended release (ER), quetiapine, or placebo. Doses of 12 and 18 mg/day of paliperidone ER were compared with quetiapine 800 mg/day. Least-squares mean change from baseline in population-specific linear-derived correction method from baseline to days 6–7 at individual tmax was 5.1 ms less [90% confidence interval: −9.2 to −0.9] with paliperidone ER 12 mg/day than with quetiapine 800 mg/day. On the basis of a prespecified 10-ms noninferiority margin, paliperidone ER was thus declared noninferior to quetiapine (primary analysis). Mean change in population-specific linear-derived correction method from baseline to days 11–12 at individual tmax was 2.3 ms less (90% confidence interval: −6.8 to 2.3) with paliperidone ER 18 mg/day than with quetiapine 800 mg/day. Treatment-emergent adverse events occurred in 36 (82%) patients treated with paliperidone ER, 41 (95%) patients treated with quetiapine, and 14 (64%) patients treated with placebo. No adverse events of a proarrhythmic nature were noted. The effect on the QTc interval in patients with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder was comparable between paliperidone ER 12 mg/day (maximum recommended dose), paliperidone ER 18 mg/day (supratherapeutic dose), and quetiapine 800 mg/day.

comment:3 Changed 8 years ago by mtredinnick
Which database backend has this problem? It might be caused by a bug in the DB API wrapper, since the rowcount attribute is meant to exist always (per PEP 249). At a minimum, I'd like to comment what bug we're working around (if it's something current), but also we should consider reporting upstream.

From the time FACO took over as trustee the trust has decreased in value along with the income. FACO now takes almost the same amount is fees as the income to the current beneficiary spouse. FACO does this by overpaying for municipal bonds with very low yields.
FACO's fees are outrageous with a 1% take on the first one million and 1.3% on the remainder. Their fee take continues on regardless of their performance.
In addition, FACO has purchased many non-income stocks that have not performed due to poor selection by the FACO investment consultants.
All of this is a direct violation of Californias Uniform Prudent Investor Act. FACO should fire themselves and let the trust go to a competent trustee.

"We have people from 21 years old to 55 or 65 playing in our league," said Scott Carlson, commissioner of the Grand Junction league of Go Kickball. "These people are having the time of their lives."
There are leagues in several states and several cities across Colorado including Denver, Boulder, Ft Collins and of course Grand Junction. The rules are simple, just like softball or baseball. Competition can be fierce but the main purpose of Go Kickball isn't who wins.
"This is a very socially elemented league," said Carlson. "It's meant to be very social".
There are about 100 players in the Grand Junction league and they're always looking for more players. The fall season just started and its not to late if you want to join. Just go to gokickball.com for more information on how you can join.
