canon 816 that looks really slick! very natural feel I'm gonna have to give that program a try, It looks like colours arent getting out of whack, did you have to do much with its output afterwards to clean up the whites or fix up colour shifts?
My hatred for HDR grows a bit more everyday. Even so, there's a few really good ones here. Maybe I shouldn't have used "HDR" as my tag search in flickr. I guess in the hands of a master, they are ok, but 99% go into the trash. I'm tempted to get an HDR addon for Lightroom to learn how to do it properly.
I use HDR for real estate photography and it certainly is a fine line to walk between an appealing HDR rendering and something that looks too artsy. The realtors I work really enjoy the dynamic range that HDR captures while at the same time they prefer more natural looking images. I own Photomatix, Enfuse, NIK, PS5, EasyHDR and have demo'd several other programs. Each program has strengths and weaknesses. I have found that EasyHDR works the best at producing as natural an image as possible while retaining a nice wide dynamic range with nice color tones. Enfuse is my second choice although it does not produce DR well when shooting in a room with a very bright exterior through the windows.No matter what HDR program I use the final image requires a fair amount of polishing with Lightroom to finalize. No program is perfect. Here are a few images I have made with EasyHDR for real estate clients. I can only post 4 it seems so I limited it to interiors and just grabbed a few off my website. If anyone would like to see exteriors I can post a few with EasyHDR as well:
not really real estate, buthere are a couple with alot of desaturation to try and overcome the way out colour shifts and some masking to get around halos
Quote from: wickidwombat on July 04, 2012, 06:55:03 PMnot really real estate, buthere are a couple with alot of desaturation to try and overcome the way out colour shifts and some masking to get around halosIf you tonemap right you won't have the color shift problem and the halo's. The reason for the halo's your getting is due to two things. 1) you have the strength slider way to high, making your foreground brighter than the sky, which not only makes the image look flat and unrealistic (clouds should be the whites brightest part of the picture), but will lead to more halos. Also the luminosity slider should be much higher to reduce the halo effect. Also, you can account for the color shift by using a cooling or warming filter in photoshop, and going easy on the saturation to start with. C
AmbientLight +1..thanks for the kind words.@lex..spent more time with P 4.2.1 and found the Exposure Fusion a bit more of what I was seeking. Thought again the presets were limiting as expected. Strangely, I opened (ready..) the User Manual.PDF Who would ever think to do that? Not any of us Pro's. I must confess, the creators of Photomatix do claim you get MDR (medium dynamic range with 3-5 exposures) but true HDR with 5-7 or more. So pardon my statement about bracketed photos being a waste as compared to multi exposures...again, just personal preference and dig working with single RAW's being a bit of a purist coming from the film days (yeah I am freakin old). There some other cool features for effects in P 4.2.1 ..one called "Unwrap Mirror ball"..have you seen that one? A bit of a novelty but it offers an extra wide landscape effect with some stretching. P 4.2.1 also claims to "reduce noise first before HDR processing"..I was unaware of that but usually have that option "On" before HDR'ing. There's also 3 different RGB modes sRGB, Adobe and Pro Photo RGB. Was also toying with the deghosting feature and the lasso tool. A good thread here.
canon816 - I must admit, I think your photos for HDR look very natural. I am pleased to see that HDR can produce such pleasing quality..excellent work.
Do any of your clients gripe about the light and dark halos and shadows, as seen in your 3rd shot next to the windows and doorways...

But what about when you are working on a function and as a reference you just hop to another file to see another functions implementation. I assume it will show up as if you are working on that function while you are only looking at it, I can imagine this could confuse some your co-workers.
Is it possible to use it over the internet? Lots of activity going on so if it uses allot of bandwidth, and how about security? Because using it in teams with people spread over different locations would be really useful.

The following story from the Marshall University Research Corporation Website (MURC) features Dr. Eric Blough of the Biomedical Sciences Graduate Program. He was a part of one of the interdiscplinary teams of researchers mentioned in the article. Dr. Blough researches within the Cardiovascular Disease, Obesity and Diabetes research cluster.
HUNTINGTON, W.Va. – Interdisciplinary teams of researchers representing four areas at Marshall University have had their abstracts accepted for the July 2012 American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy's annual meeting in Kissimmee, Fla.
The teams include faculty researchers and students from Marshall's School of Pharmacy, School of Medicine, Department of Biological Sciences and Center for Diagnostic Nanosystems. Their research includes the following projects:
- "Assessment of outcomes from use of a standardized behavioral interview within the candidate recruiting process." Researchers include Robert Stanton, Ph.D.; Kimberly Broedel-Zaugg, Ph.D.; and H. Glenn Anderson, Ph.D. – all three faculty with the School of Pharmacy. The project reviews the validity of faculty scoring that occurs during a standard candidate interview.
- "Reasons students choose pharmacy as a career." The research team includes Broedel-Zaugg, and colleagues and students from Ohio Northern University and the University of Louisiana at Monroe. The goal of the research is to identify the factors that motivate students to choose pharmacy as a career and to determine if there are differences in factor choice between groups of students at different universities.
- "Acetaminophen Reduces Lipid Accumulation and Improves Cardiac Function in Obese Zucker Rat." The research team includes Eric Blough, Ph.D., faculty-School of Pharmacy; Paulette Wehner, M.D., faculty-School of Medicine; and Nandini Manne, a doctoral fellow in the School of Medicine. Additional team members include Miaozong Wu, Ph.D.; Ravi Arvapalli; Cuifen Wang, Ph.D.; and Satyanarayana Paturi,D.V.M, who are all with the Center for Diagnostic Nanosystems and the Department of Biological Sciences. The project looked at the effect of acetaminophen consumption on obesity-induced cardiac dysfunction.
- "Protective Effect of Acetaminophen on Renal Dysfunction in Obese Zucker Rat." Research team includes Wang, Blough, Arvapalli, Paturi, Manne and Wu. The study's data suggests that chronic acetaminophen ingestion is associated with improved kidney structure and function in the obese Zucker rat.
The meeting is scheduled for July 14-18.

At least, that was the notion suggested by none other than the Wolverine star himself, Hugh Jackman, when he had some spoof lyrics foisted upon him Saturday while appearing on BBC Radio 1's The Matt Edmondson Show.
Jackman, ostensibly onboard to promote X-Men: Days of Future Past, proved good-natured about the impromptu moment. Taking the so-called Wolverine: The Musical lyric sheet in hand, the 2008 Sexiest Man Alive sang to the tune of his pensive Les Misérables number "Who Am I?" – even managing a hearty chuckle as he read the words for the first time as he delivered them.
In addition to poking fun at the Wolverine diet, (I'm at the gym doing weights each day/Hugh has got to look buff, they say), Jackman, 45, also sang:
Who am I?
Am I a superhero with some claws?
Or just an actor searching for applause?
Wolverine has all the fans
But what about me, Hugh Jackman?
For the capper, Jackman even laughed when he failed to hit a high note.
Speaking of high notes, this also might be a good time to note that Jackman will be returning to host Broadway's Tony Awards June 8, having won an Emmy for his stint in 2004. He then turned over the emcee duties for the past few years to an equally game Neil Patrick Harris.
But, for now, ladies and gentlemen, let's put your claws together for ... Wolverine!

Long time Niner, typography master, ClearType co-inventor and more-than-avid reader Bill Hill reflects on Channel 9, the state of the economy, Homo Sapiens 2.0 and the next version of, well, Bill Hill (Bill Hill 2.0).
Bill was the focus of one of the very early interviews on Channel 9 and it was where we captured the raw human quality that makes Channel 9 special. Of course, Bill Hill is great to listen to and learn from. We were lucky to get him early on in our development as it really helped us grow and plot a content course for C9. Thank you, Bill. You are a legendary Niner. Much love!
Update: Bill passed away suddenly on October 16, 2012. We are all deeply saddened and send our heartfelt condolences to Bill's family. We've lost a visionary and iconoclast. RIP.

Wall Street Journal producer Jeff Bush had a look at the five most expensive cars at the show: an Aston, Bentley, Rolls-Royce, Lamborghini and a Porsche with a starting price of $845,000.
"The New York Auto Show is the place for dreaming and why not dream of owning one of the top five most expensive cars at the show?" asks Mr. Bush in a video from the show.

A fat chavette hailing from the Welsh Valleys.
Fat Valley Bird (FVB) is a fat chavette hailing from the Welsh Valleys. The FVB can easily be identified as they dress in tracksuits, are adorned in copious amounts of Argos jewellery and are either fat, very fat or extremely fat. The FVBs pastimes can include Bus Shelter loitering, eating chips and fighting. If you encounter this species in the wild, it is best to stay upwind and NEVER make eye contact as this is either a declaration of war, or of love making. Please note, if eye contact is made it would be best to immediately assume the foetal position and go to your happy place until the FVB has moved on to new prey. You have been warned!

The usually forthcoming reality star, 29, has remained mum thus far about the tabloid reports, but a friend tells PEOPLE that Wilkinson "cries every day" and is holding off on making any drastic decisions regarding her marriage to Baskett, 31, for the sake of their kids.
"She wanted to throw Hank out but couldn't because she is healing [from her daughter's delivery] and needs help with the kids," says the source.
The couple wed five years ago and have two children – Hank IV, 4½, and Alijah Mary, 8 weeks.
According to the friend, Wilkinson found out about the devastating news from a phone call "right before the [report] came out."
"She confronted Hank, [but] he denied it until he found out that the woman took a lie detector test and had to admit it," says the source.
Adds the friend: "She feels so stupid walking around like her life was so perfect and that her marriage was so solid. She feels like such a fool."

One man is in custody as Altoona police seized weed eaters, a snow blower, GPS units and other suspected stolen goods from a Spruce Avenue home.
Christopher K. Anderson, 29, of 2813 Spruce Ave., was arrested at just after 2 p.m. without incident after Altoona police linked Anderson to a reported burglary on the 1200 block of Walton Avenue Sunday morning, police said.
According to Altoona police, Anderson allegedly used a credit card reported stolen in Sunday's burglary at an area Sheetz convenience store. Through video surveillence at the store officers were able to identify Anderson, who has an extensive criminal history involving thefts spanning the past seven years, and track him down at his home.
Police said inside they found a large cache of suspected stolen goods that included miscellaneous tools, a small welder, a pressure washer and other electronic items. Police believe the items were taken over the past month or longer and residents are asked to check their homes, garages, vehicles and sheds for signs of a break-in.
Victims will need to show something that identifies their missing property such as a receipt or serial number, Altoona police Detective Matthew Starr said.
Starr said Altoona police arrested Anderson earlier this year for breaking into cars. Court records show Anderson pleaded guilty in three theft cases this year, including two felony theft from a motor vehicle and one misdemeanor theft from a motor vehicle counts.
Anderson was taken to Central Booking in Hollidaysburg and arraigned before Magisterial District Judge Steven Jackson. Anderson was lodged in Blair County Prison after failing to post $20,000 cash bail.
A preliminary hearing is slated for Wednesday at Central Court.
Police ask that anyone who may believe their stolen items to among those confiscated are asked to call Altoona police at 949-2489.

on September 9, 2012 - 7:52 PM
, updated September 10, 2012 at 1:37 PM
The owners of One HSBC Center are seeking help from national land-use and building-use experts about what to do with anticipated vacant space in Buffalo's tallest tower, space that will open up if the major tenant ends up leaving in the next year.
Seneca One Realty LLC, the New York-based investor group that owns the 38-story tower, has "been in touch" with the Urban Land Institute about conducting a panel study of One HSBC Center, similar to what was done with Kaleida Health for Millard Fillmore Hospital, said Chief Operating Officer Stephen P. Fitzmaurice.
The panel would be done "on a more limited basis" than with the hospital, he said, but would "consider what the highest and best use is for One HSBC Center."
The group, which would be doing its work this fall, has not been put together, but he said it could include urban strategists as well as hospitality specialists, investment bankers, architects, retail specialists, regional economic competitiveness strategists, community reinvestment financing experts and developers with expertise in mixed-use conversion.
Recommendations "could very well include residential units," such as condominiums, which Seneca One thinks "would work." Observers have said the views from the 850,000-square-foot tower, and the prestige associated with the address, could prove attractive.
But the investor group wants experts to thoroughly evaluate it first. "Many people locally have encouraged us to do this, but it's a significant departure from what we've been doing," Fitzmaurice said. "As a result we'd like to get an opinion from a panel including individuals who have successfully accomplished this type of conversion."
Other options could include a hotel or apartments, as well as new tenants to replace those who have left. But local real estate experts fear that could trigger an exodus of tenants from other downtown buildings whose space is not as nice, putting those buildings and landlords at risk.
Seneca One is facing a perfect storm of bad timing, as its landmark property in Buffalo - which had been considered a solid investment - could wind up being 91 percent vacant within a year. That's because the second- and third-largest tenants have either vacated or will be vacating their space, and HSBC Bank USA may follow suit when its lease expires in October 2013. And it could double the amount of vacant space downtown, causing the overall commercial real estate market in the central business district to collapse because the space can't be absorbed quickly.
Law firm Phillips Lytle LLP, the building's second-largest tenant and No. 2 law firm in Buffalo, is leaving its 85,000-square-foot space on four floors of the tower to occupy space in the former Donovan State Office Building, which is being redeveloped by Benderson Development Co. and renamed One Canalside. The Canadian consulate, the No. 3 tenant in the tower with 36,000 square feet, was closed as part of a budget-cutting decision by Ottawa.
HSBC, the U.S. subsidiary of British giant HSBC Holdings Plc, occupies 77 percent of the building, or 653,000 square feet on 22 floors. But the bank had previously indicated its intention to consider other locations for its local workforce for the long term that would better suit its needs. And the bank may not need all the space it now has since it sold its entire upstate New York retail branch network to First Niagara Financial Group.
HSBC still has more than 3,000 employees in Buffalo for other business lines and operations, both locally and nationally. It's renovating and expanding its HSBC Atrium next to the First Niagara Center to accommodate more staff and will still have space in its leased former mortgage facility in Depew.
The bank has only said it will stay in the tower "for the time being," but has not said when it would make a permanent decision.
"They're still in the process of determining a strategic plan for operations in the United States," Fitzmaurice said. "They would begin to define their real estate needs based on that, and hopefully be able to tell us what they may need at the tower in the near future."
In the meantime, Fitzmaurice said, Seneca One will "continue to actively solicit tenants for the tower." Other tenants currently include the Oishei Foundation, the Seymour H. Knox Foundation and UBS Financial Services, but they occupy a small part of the building.
Fitzmaurice said the landlord also signed Seneca Holdings a few months ago, is "speaking with three prospective tenants" and has successfully rented some furnished individual offices.
Additionally, he said, Delaware North Companies' broker at Studley in Miami has spoken with Seneca One's leasing representative. The Buffalo-based hospitality company just announced that it is conducting its own real estate review for its headquarters, currently in 100,000 square feet at the Key Center building at Fountain Plaza. The company said it wants to stay downtown.
But Fitzmaurice wouldn't say if Delaware North is interested.
"As with any prospective tenant, we don't comment on that process," he said.

Missouri fire raises new concern over residential standards for people with mental illnesses
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports on an overnight fire at an adult home for elderly and mentally ill persons that killed 10 people and injured 25,based on early information from local authorities.
Nineteen people were taken to area hospitals. Six were treated at the scene. The cause is still under investigation.
The Anderson Guest House is a residential care center licensed by the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services. The facility also has a license from the state Department of Mental Health that allowed mentally ill residents to live at the home and receive treatment elsewhere. The dead range in age from adults in their 20s to elderly persons.
NAMI generally opposes placement of younger adults with mental illnesses in residential facilities with elderly persons.
Tragedies of this nature inevitably raise concerns over safety and treatment standards and their enforcement. In 2003, the New York Times won a Pulitzer Prize for a series of articles that exposed horrendous conditions, fraud and victimization of residents in New York's adult home industry.

Has anyone read a translated version of Kouta Hirano's new work Drifters?
I haven't read it yet but it sounds weird. Historical figures like Joan of Arc, Rasputin and Nobunaga when they supposedly died are taken to another realm were two waring factions try to recruit them to fight for their side. This world is inhabited by fantasy creatures like elves, hobbits, and wizards. Kouta Hirano is the author of Hellsing and Hellsing the Dawn.
Not sure what to think I enjoy Hellsing but this sounds a bit odd.I'm willing to give it a read.
I haven't read it yet, it does sound odd. Here is a link to it http://www.mangafox.com/manga/drifters/

U.S. Climate Extremes Index (CEI): Introduction
NCEI added Alaska climate divisions to its nClimDiv dataset on Friday, March 6, 2015, coincident with the release of the February 2015 monthly monitoring report. For more information on this data, please visit the Alaska Climate Divisions FAQ.
How has the climate changed over the past 50 or more years? In what ways and by how much? Many people, including climatologists, have been struggling with these questions for some time now, not only for scientific interest, but also to aid in policy decisions (IPCC 2001) and to inform the general public. In order to answer these questions, it is important to obtain comprehensive and intuitive information which allows interested parties to understand the scientific basis for confidence, or lack thereof, in the present understanding of the climate system. One tool, first developed as a framework for quantifying observed changes in climate within the contiguous Unites States, is the U.S. Climate Extremes Index (CEI).
The CEI was first introduced in early 1996 (Karl et al. 1996) with the goal of summarizing and presenting a complex set of multivariate and multidimensional climate changes in the United States so that the results could be easily understood and used in policy decisions made by nonspecialists in the field. The contiguous U.S. was selected as the focus for this study in part since climate change is of great interest to U.S. citizens and policy makers and since climate changes within the U.S. have not been given extensive coverage in intergovernmental or national reports which focus on climate change assessments (IPCC 2001; NRC 1992; NRC 2001).
In 2003, two notable modifications were made to the CEI. Indicators in the original CEI summarized trends in temperature, precipitation and drought data on an annual basis. The revised CEI now includes an experimental tropical system component and is calculated for multiple seasons. The newest indicator documents trends in tropical system activity based on the wind velocity of landfalling tropical storm and hurricanes. As of October 2004, CEI calculations begin in 1910 for all periods and are updated within a few weeks after the end of a particular season and include final quality controlled data as well as near-real-time data. In September 2005, the two components for each of four indicators (steps 1, 2, 3, and 5) are plotted separately to help in the identification of trends and variability of each component. All graphs are now plotted as bar graphs rather than dot plots. In December 2005, a year-to-date season was made available along with the other eight standard seasons. Additions and modifications made to the original CEI are explained in an article entitled "A Revised U.S. Climate Extremes Index", which was published in mid-2008 (Gleason et al. 2008).
In July 2011, a regional CEI (RCEI) was introduced, which computes the CEI acrss the 9 U.S. Standard Regions (Karl and Koss, 1984). Year-to-year varations in the regional index have higher amplitude swings and larger/smaller percentages of each region affected by extremes compared with the CEI. There is a good deal of spatial consistency among the RCEI indicators and similar extremes may span across or be absent from a region in any given season.

Addressing "a judgmental culture in hip-hop," the rapper recently told The Hollywood Reporter, "Sometimes you are afraid of being too famous because it's almost, like, is that even cool? Being that accessible, someone you see on TV every week? I never pictured myself as that type of person. I'm still surprised that I decided to do it."
Equally shocked at her own decision to join the show is Minaj's one-time rival Mariah Carey.
"I was on the fence about the whole thing," Carey says. "I got approached by all the shows. [My husband Nick Cannon] said I should do it because it's the top. It's the cream of the crop. And I felt like, 'Do the show that's produced massive stars who have had major careers.' "
Adds Carey, "I know everyone's like, 'We can't have schmaltzy answers.' Well guess what? Some people still want to be inspired. Some people need to have that kind of validation and to feel like, if this person did it, then I can. And I do have one of those stories."
Their hesitation about joining the show isn't the only thing they have in common. Apparently, both judges are rocking some skimpy attire.
When asked if she has to tone down her look to fit the Idol mold, Minaj – who was caught screaming at Carey on camera in October – said simply, "I could think of at least one other person [who] shows more cleavage and skin than me."

Dorothy Malczewski started making butter lambs in the kitchen of her East Side home in the early 1960s using the wooden mold her father brought with him from Poland.
She would eventually sell her butter lambs in seven sizes from her chicken stand in the Broadway Market, introducing them to generations of families as an Easter-time tradition.
Mrs. Malczewski, who retired in 2007 from Malczewski's Chicken Shop, died Saturday in Buffalo General Medical Center. She was 89.
"Nobody decorated the butter lamb like my mother," said Jim Malczewski, who took over the business. "The red ribbon started it. We used to make the alleluia flags by hand with red tape and hand-cut toothpicks. I'm talking thousands of toothpicks. My mother was always thinking."
Though Mrs. Malczewski did not invent the lamb figurines, she was responsible for popularizing them, beginning in the 1960s.
"Another company, Buffalo Butter, was making butter lambs at the time," she said in a 2006 interview. "The Buffalo Butter lambs were nice, but they were small. I thought, this gives me an idea to make some more attractive lambs. I thought there must be a different way to make prettier ones, not only for our Polish people, but to let all of us enjoy a lamb on the table at Easter."
News of Mrs. Malczewski's death saddened many of the merchants at the market, who on Tuesday remembered the "Chicken Lady" as a tough businesswoman.
"When you worked for her, you worked hard," said Daria Parker of Lewandowski Produce. "She was always at the stand for Easter."
Malczewski's Chicken Shop patrons purchased more than butter lambs. At Thanksgiving, fresh turkeys were sold by the truckload, recalled Jim Malczewski.
Joseph Petruso managed the Broadway Market in 1988 when it celebrated its 100th birthday. He recalled Mrs. Malczewski's generosity.
"She was very good about giving food to needy people," said Petruso. "She was very generous. She made her butter lambs legendary, a very popular business."
A turning point for the butter lambs was the addition of "curls," according to Jim Malczewski.
"A friend suggested doing curly lambs," he recalled. "We took a 2-ounce lamb, whipped some butter and used a pastry bag to decorate it. The business just kept growing and growing. Its lambs grew from 4 ounces to 6 ounces to a 10-ounce lamb. There were actually seven different sizes, including a 3-pound butter lamb for banquets that cost $15."
The increasing demand through the 1970s pushed Mrs. Malczewski to purchase a house on Gibson Street across from the market to churn out more lambs. Through it all, she mixed her diligent work ethic with a zest for fun.
"My mother couldn't sing a note," said Jim Malczewski, "but her friends sang at the Chopin Singing Society, so she belonged and partied with them."
This Easter, Mrs. Malczewski visited the market, where the butter lambs are now sold by Camellia Meats. She bought 110 butter lambs for her fellow residents at ElderWood Village in Cheektowaga.
Recently, Jim Malczewski said, he found an old wooden butter lamb mold that he wanted to give his mother.
"I'll put in the coffin," he said. "Ma can take it to heaven."
Mrs. Malczewski's husband, Raymond, a U.S. Army veteran, died in 1993. In addition to Jim, she is survived by two other sons, Carl and Donald, and a brother, Peter Gondek.
Prayers for Mrs. Malczewski will be offered at 9:30 a.m. Thursday at Pacer Funeral Home, 2275 George Urban Blvd. in Cheektowaga. A Mass of Christian Burial will follow at 10 a.m. at Resurrection Church, 130 Como Park Blvd., Cheektowaga.

What regular season?
The Palmetto Christian Academy football team lost two consecutive region games in late October and went from a region favorite to the No. 3 seed heading into the playoffs.
But, since the calendar turned to November, the Eagles have returned to championship contender form. This past week, Palmetto Christian traveled to Calhoun Academy and came away with a 54-39 win in the first round of the SCISA 2A playoffs.
Senior quarterback J.T. Waters led a consistent offensive attack, running for 297 yards and throwing for 111 with six total touchdowns (five rushing, one passing).
The Eagles scored two touchdowns in every quarter, and Calhoun Academy discovered that trying to outscore Palmetto Christian doesn't often work. Running back Ryan Roe added 157 yards and a pair of touchdowns.
"He (J.T.) and Ryan ran like men on a mission," one Eagles assistant coach said. "It was fun to watch."
Waters has 2,276 rushing yards so far this season, 1,757 passing yards and 56 total touchdowns. Roe has 1,033 rushing yards and 13 touchdowns. The Muscle and Hustle duo mark the first time in school history that Palmetto Christian has had two players rush for at least 1,000 yards and the first time anyone has ever had more than 2,000 rushing yards.
It took resilience to keep the season going. Calhoun took a 33-32 lead late in the third quarter.
In the final 17 seconds of the period, Waters connected with wide receiver Ben German three times before Waters scored one of his five touchdowns to regain the lead in only 12 seconds.
The Eagles tacked on 14 more points in the fourth quarter, while holding Calhoun (6-5) to just six points.
With the win, Palmetto Christian (7-3) advances to the state semifinals at Hilton Head Christian. The other semifinal game is Northwood at Florence Christian.
The Eagles lost 45-36 to Hilton Head Christian (8-2), Oct. 25. Hilton Head outscored Palmetto Christian 32-16 in the second and third quarters. Waters was held to 98 yards on 26 carries, and he threw two interceptions.
Hilton Head is riding an eight-game winning streak after losing its opening two games at Hammond (49-13) and at Bible Baptist (44-27). Palmetto Christian routed Bible Baptist, 62-16, three weeks later.

Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer highlighted the sacrifice of 19 firefighters who died battling a wildfire, and called each one a son of the state.
Brewer spoke during a memorial service Tuesday in Prescott Valley. She says that while she couldn't truly understand the grief of the families, she'll be praying for them always.
Brewer praised people around the country for responding as she hoped they would - with candlelight vigils, financial contributions, prayers, and flowers and notes placed at makeshift memorials.
The governor had ordered flags flown at half-staff across Arizona for 19 days in honor of the men who died June 30.
She also thanked President Barack Obama for the federal resources used to battle the blaze. Brewer says it's the duty of all Americans to help and protect the firefighters' families.
THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP's earlier story is below.
Thousands of firefighters and law enforcement officers from New York to California filed into a northern Arizona arena Tuesday to mourn 19 firefighters killed in a wildfire and to support the families they left behind.
The memorial in Prescott Valley began with a choir singing "On Eagle's Wings" as Vice President Joe Biden sang along from the sidelines.
Homeland Security Secretary and former Arizona Gov. Janet Napolitano, current Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer and members of the state's congressional delegation also were at the memorial. Biden and Brewer are set to speak at the memorial service.
Prescott's Granite Mountain Hotshots were overrun by smoke and fire while battling a blaze on a ridge in Yarnell, about 80 miles northwest of Phoenix.
One member survived - Brendan McDonough, 21, who was serving as a lookout and wasn't in the immediate burn zone. A stone-faced McDonough filed onto the stage and will offer what's called "The Hot Shot's Prayer," which ends with a line that will most certainly be difficult for the young man to read: "For if this day on the line ... I should answer death's call ... Lord, bless my hot shot Crew ... My family, one and all."
Outside, each of the 19 firefighters was represented by a U.S. flag and a purple ribbon with his name. A bronze statue of a wildland firefighter with an ax in hand, stood in front as if guarding the arena.
Inside, each of the firefighters' names scrolled across an electronic board on two sides of the minor league hockey arena. Lined up in front of the stage were 19 sets of firefighting gear, complete with commemorative Pulaski tools similar to the ones the elite crew uses to dig lines around fires.
Prescott Fire Chief Dan Fraijo is expected to give the tools to the firefighters' families, along with flags that had flown over the U.S. Capitol in honor of them.
Alumni of the Granite Mountain Hotshots sat in the front rows, with about 1,000 members of the fallen firefighters' families surrounding them in seats on the floor of the arena. Those who first responded to the Yarnell Hill Fire sat in the rows behind them.
Capt. Steve Brown of the Rancho Cucamonga, Calif., Fire District brought 17 others in his department of 85 uniformed firefighters. The job, he said, is driven first by the desire to help others and, secondly, by the excitement of not knowing where you're headed when that alarm sounds.
Those feelings - along with long work days often away from family - are shared among firefighters regardless of where they're stationed, he said.
"You can't judge a person till you've walked a mile in their shoes," he said. "If you do the job, you understand the job. That's where the camaraderie comes in."
Being part of the brotherhood doesn't come automatically when someone joins a firefighting crew, Steve Rushing of the Burbank, Calif., Fire Department said. Each has to earn respect and gain the trust of others through hard work and commitment, he said.
McDonough was assigned to give a "heads-up on the hillside" for the team on that fateful afternoon, said Prescott Fire Department spokesman Wade Ward. He notified the crew of the rapidly changing weather conditions that sent winds swirling erratically and caused the fire to cut off his team's escape route, then swiftly left his post for safety.
Ward said it's just been too tough on McDonough, but that "he did exactly what he was supposed to."
"He's trying to deal with the same things that we're all trying to deal with, but you can understand how that's compounded being there on the scene," Ward said last week.
The highly specialized crew was part of a small community of Hotshots nationwide, just about 110 of the 20-person teams mostly stationed west of the Mississippi River.
The memorial service, called "Our Fallen Brothers: A Celebration of Life," will be the last of a handful of vigils for the men before the first of 19 funerals begin later in the week.

MARTINSBURG - The brother of Virginia man fatally shot by police March 13 in downtown Martinsburg said Wednesday that he is angry and that his family wants answers to what happened the night of the police-involved shooting.
A press conference held at the Holiday Inn in Martinsburg was attended by family members of Wayne Arnold Jones, 50, of Stephens City, who was shot and killed by officers with the Martinsburg Police Department. Also at the press conference was Martinsburg attorney Sherman L. Lambert Sr., who was retained by Jones' family, and representatives of the NAACP, who announced that they requested Wednesday that the U.S. Department of Justice's Civil Rights Division investigate the shooting.
Police said in official statement after the shooting that Jones was shot after he pulled a knife on five officers and stabbed one of them. Family members say he was shot 15 times while he was getting up from the ground.

Bruce Jones, the youngest brother of Wayne Arnold Jones, who was shot and killed by police March 13 in Martinsburg, addresses reporters at a press conference Wednesday. His brother, Bobby, and sister, Shayne Hunt, are seated to his left. The family's attorney, Sherman L. Lambert Sr., is seated to the right.
"I want to see this pursued to the fullest. I want to see a wrong made right. I honestly want to see these officers prosecuted. I want answers," said Jones' youngest brother, Bruce Jones, of Winchester, Va.
George Rutherford, president of the Jefferson County chapter of the NAACP, described Jones' death at the hands of police as a "brutal killing."
"The NAACP further requests that the Justice Department determine if this killing was a hate crime in disguise and, if so, treat it to as one," Rutherford told reporters.
Family members and the NAACP say the want to know why Jones was stopped by police; why the five officers involved in the shooting, who have not been identified, were unable to restrain Jones after he was shot twice with a Taser; why he was reportedly shot while attempting to get back to his feet; why he was shot approximately 15 times; and why the police officer who was reportedly stabbed didn't require medical attention.
"The NAACP and the African-American community would like to know the following," Rutherford said.
Jones' oldest brother, Bobby, who also resides in Winchester, Va., said his family hasn't received any answers yet, except for what was contained in the initial report released by police. He said he received information that his brother sustained 15 entry and exit wounds from the funereal director who prepared the body for burial.
"When you hear something like that, it's just really horrifying. How could police officers be that cruel? He wasn't America's Most Wanted. He hadn't committed a crime. As far as we knew, all he did was just walk down the middle of the street, and it came to that," Jones' brother said.
He said one of the bullets traveled through his brother's armpit and struck him in the face, forcing his brother's body to only be viewable from the left side at his funeral.
"I would really like to see the faces of the men that are that evil that would really inflict something like that on somebody that had been on the ground, according to their report," Jones' brother said.
He said he was looking forward to the results of investigation into the shooting being performed by the West Virginia State Police, but said that he doesn't trust the agency and that it has not released any additional information about the investigation.
Jones' sister, Shayne Hunt, of Tampa, Fla., told reporters that her two brothers had to inform their 81-year-old mother, who lives in a nursing home in Front Royal, Va., that her son, who was her long-time caretaker, died after being shot multiple times by police.
She said more than 100 people attended Jones' funeral Saturday in Winchester, including her mother.
"My mother, prior to the ceremony, asked to be held up, so she could bend over and kiss her son...for the last time before he was put in his grave," said Hunt. "Fortunately, she could not see what the rest of us saw - his face. I didn't know that that was my brother, Wayne."
She described Jones as good, generous person, who would "never hurt a soul in his life" and never did anything wrong, as far as she was concerned. She did tell reporters that her brother was a diagnosed paranoid schizophrenic. Hunt said he had been seeing a psychiatrist and taking medications, but said she was unaware if he was still seeing a psychiatrist at the time of the shooting.
"Where is a video or why aren't we getting any responses as a follow up to what actually happened that day? We need to know. We honestly need to know. We want the truth, not the convenient truth," Hunt said.
Marion Meadows, Jones' cousin, traveled from his home in Hawaii to attend the press conference and said that he felt it was important to be there because of the seriousness of the incident.
A native of West Virginia, Meadows, a recording artist, said he grew up in Connecticut across the street from Jones' family and used to babysit him. He said his cousin had his own challenges, but said the man lived a normal life through the support of his family. Family members said that they had been told that Jones had been boarding with a woman in Martinsburg they only knew by the first name Patricia for about five to six months prior to the shooting.
"I have no malice, because I don't even know the persons or person who even inflicted these wounds, but when you read this police report, there's just something wrong. Knowing Wayne Jones and reading that police report, there's something wrong here," Meadows said.
James Tolbert, secretary for the West Virginia state chapter of the NAACP and former long-time president, called on the city of Martinsburg and the Berkeley County Commission to establish a civilian review board in the wake of the shooting.
"We believe that a civilian review board would do much to restore the reputation of this community and that this should be done very, very fast," Tolbert said.
Lambert, who accused police last week of "executing" Jones, told reporters that the purpose of the press conference was to provide the public with knowledge about who Jones was as a person, to allow his family an opportunity to express their feelings about the manner of his death, to express "grave concerns" about some members of the Martinsburg Police Department, and to shed light upon what he said is the general misunderstanding that the police department has for the mentally ill.
"The Martinsburg Police Department, who are sworn to serve and protect...could be characterized as a danger to the community," Lambert said.

This course is extremely well written, step-by-step, with visual examples of before and after so the student knows what the change should look like. Questions were answered quickly and concisely. The course content gave a solid understanding of setting up and running a WordPress website which is exactly what I wanted from this class. I already have a four year undergraduate degree and took many classes, most in classrooms but several online. Therefore, probably the highest praise that I can give is to say that "I could hardly wait for each lesson to be released." I looked forward to learning more about the subject and knew that the information would be presented in a way that it would be a pleasure to learn!
This was an excellent course and I would recommend it to anyone. It has helped me become confident and able to manage my own professional website. The discussion area was very important and helpful. Even if I didn't experience the issues and questions raised by another classmate, their issues and questions helped me think ahead and anticipate issues I might confront. The instructor was incredibly helpful and always around to answer questions quickly…Thank you for this course and thank you to the instructor for his excellence, patience, input and timely help to all of us.
I cannot say enough about John's professionalism, support, and positive approach. I took his first WordPress course and always felt he cared that I learned and understood. This course was definitely more difficult and involved, yet John made it just as clear and he patiently helped every participant to grasp the obscure concepts. This course delivered above and beyond my expectations! A huge thank you to him and to ed2go!
This course was fantastic! The instructor is obviously an expert on the subject, and his teaching style is superb. I will definitely recommend this course to others and I look forward to other courses that he might teach in the future. Thanks!
John Agress is a superb instructor with a good writing style, great pedagogic skills, and is always willing to answer questions quickly and respectfully.
John Agress has got to be the most responsive instructor at ed2go that I've ever had (I've taken more than 20 courses via ed2go). I took two WordPress classes with him and he always answered my questions promptly -- usually within hours on the same day! His answers provided additional information and were easy to follow. When I hit a couple of "hard" patches which were harder to grasp, he took the time to patiently walk me through the procedures. If he ever teaches a new class, I'll be back.
John is by far, the best online instructor I have ever had the privilege of taking a class from. The class structure is excellent and his interaction with students is way beyond excellent. This is my second class with him. The content this time was more challenging but he made it a clear and pleasurable learning experience.
This was an excellent class, very much up-to-date, and it contained information I'll be able to refer to again and again when working on my own WordPress based sites. I would recommend this class to anyone who wants to get more out of WordPress and take their sites to the next level.
Outstanding course and outstanding teacher! I am extremely satisfied and grateful. The curriculum taught me far more than I ever thought I could learn in six weeks. The professor is amazing--unfailingly respectful, kind, and willing to go the extra mile to answer our questions and help us with our website projects. Every aspect was so thoroughly handled. I have already recommended this class to a friend.
This is the second course I have taken with John as the instructor and I cannot speak too highly of his excellent teaching methods. As a teacher myself I understand the difficulties of teaching an online course where you have no direct personal contact with the student. John's easy approach and rapid response to questions and problems made it so much easier. I highly recommend this course to others who are interested in web design.

One summer afternoon when he was 13, Gary Balone's uncle told him Eden Valley Growers needed someone to load trucks.
"So I hopped on my bike and headed down here, and that's where I've been ever since," he said.
That was in 1963, and Balone's entire working career has been at the co-op. He moved up from loading trucks to driving them, then into selling, and eventually into managing one of the oldest vegetable farm cooperatives in the state for the last 30 years.
Farmers will be out planting in the fields later this month, but members of Eden Valley Growers took some time out from planning last week to recognize their longtime general manager for his 50 years of service.
Members of the co-op took the unprecedented step of giving him a share in the co-op. To belong to the cooperative, one must buy a share of stock, and only producers had been allowed to buy shares since it was founded in 1956.
"It was an unprecedented thing to do that," said co-op member Bill Zittel, but he added, "What do you do for someone who has dedicated his life to it?"
When Eden Valley Growers was founded in 1956, the membership consisted of 23 farms. Through attrition, the co-op now includes 10 member families farming the same amount of acreage, about 1,000 acres, in intensive hand-harvested fresh market vegetables.
Fewer than 100,000 cases of produce were sold in 1956, compared with more than a half million last year. Eden Valley is the oldest food hub in New York State, servicing local retailers and wholesalers in the Western New York area. Vegetables are shipped as far as Florida and Texas during the peak of the season. Using the latest cooling technologies, Eden Valley Growers also provides locally grown produce from May until November each year.
The cooperative also is being certified in global Good Agricultural Practices, or GAP, qualifying it to sell produce throughout the world. It's a certification that some of its customers have asked for, and will hopefully open more markets to the growers.
Locally, Balone helped the growers in the transition from every farm selling at daily markets to the co-op marketing to supermarkets such as Tops and Wegmans, and to James Desiderio Wholesale Produce.
"He's built up some awesome rapport. When Gary speaks, they listen because they know he's going to tell the truth," Zittel said. "In New York State and local area, if it has Eden Valley Growers on the box, you know you're getting good product."
Farmers run their own businesses and determine independently what crops they will grow. But there is constant communication among members, who in addition to regular meetings can be in constant radio communication with each other out in the fields. It wasn't always that way.
Farmers used to compete with each other selling produce at the Clinton Bailey market. Balone helped provide the leadership and structure to show that the farmers were much stronger working together. Today, they are very loyal to the growers and help out one another.
"They're always right there to help each other," Balone said. "Instead of being competitors, they're actually partners."
