Considering the timing problem here is how I do it:
Every time you get an update from the server you can calculate the server time ST corresponding to the update. The target client time targCT would be
targCT = ST + RTT + c
where c is a constant that accounts for jitter in the RTT (such that input packets arrive in time with high probability) and RTT is the current estimate for the round trip time.
The actual client time CT is updated with the internal clock between each server packet and then adjusted according to something like
CT = 0.99*CT + 0.01*targCT
Note that these calculations are done in (more or less) continuos time.
Considering the client side prediction, I guess if you have an expensive physical simulation, it might be infeasible to calculate the prediction steps. In this case, as mentioned by hplus, you could just render everything at a render time
and try to mask the control delay somehow.
I keep trying to figure out how this would play out and I can't see how it could work:
Client A has RTT of 200ms
Client B has RTT of 200ms
Interpolation time of 50ms
Server Tick: 200, Client render: 150, Client Tick 400: Client B moves forward
Server Tick: 300, Client render: 250, Client Tick 500: Client B moves forward again. Server receives move command for tick 400
Server Tick: 400, Client render: 350, Client Tick 600: Server applies move and sends out world state. Server receives second move command for tick 500
Server Tick: 450, Client render: 400, Client Tick 650: At this point client A should see client B move, but the world state still has another 50ms before it reaches client A
Server Tick: 500, Client render: 450, Client Tick 700: Client A receives world state for tick 400. Now what?
Valve defaults to an interpolation time of 100ms. In this situation if the interp time was set to that, the client would have just barely received it in time. If the packet took a little longer than 100ms, it would have still been too late.
what i meant was that the difference between the client time and the time corresponding to the latest update from the server is the RTT, the difference between client time and the simultaneous server time is RTT/2. With this timing, assuming constant RTT, the client input packets arrive at exactly the tick, when they are needed.
At the server you do not necessarily have to take the time stamp of the input packet into account, you can also just use the latest packet of each user for the update (edit: you still use the time stamp to detect out of order packets). The RTT tells you how far you have to extrapolate at the client (If you want to use prediction).

SAP is organizing its BI strategy around the five trends that are shaping IT today: mobile, cloud, analytics, social media, and self-service technologies. The company addressed four of these five subjects with a hail of product announcements in the past couple of days.
Firstly, the business software maker launched six applications for Windows 8 devices. One of these apps, SAP WorkDeck, is brand new. The company describes it as a dashboarding tool for a manager that aggregates information from different sources and makes it accessible from a single pane of glass.
The remaining five applications that support Windows are Manager Insight, Interview Assistant, Learning Assistant Customer Financial Fact Sheet and GRC Policy Survey.
SAP saved up a couple other updates for the Tech Ed and Sapphire conferences held in Madrid this week. In the cloud department it introduced Financials OnDemand, a hosted reporting platform that is very similar to WorkDeck. The big difference lies under the hood: OnDemand is based on HANA, SAP's in-memory analytics engine.
The service, provides a cloud-based alternative to the company's on-premise SAP Financials software. It is particularly suited to larger companies that run SAP Financials on-premise, but have subsidiaries that rely on different legacy financial software.
The technology that powers Financials OnDemand is about to get even better, thanks the upcoming service pack stack 5 SAP revealed yesterday. SPS5 includes several major improvements, including compatibility with SAP's widely-used ERP system and a read-optimized column store that will allow more applications to leverage the database solution.
SPS5 also includes enhanced text analytics that will allow companies to get more accurate reads from social media reactions. This functionality is joined by more library functions and new server-side capabilities designed to simplify large-scale deployment.

Field practicum is an integral and essential component of the social work curriculum. Field practicum places students in agency settings and engages the student in supervised social work practice. It provides valuable opportunities to apply classroom learning in the field. Field coordinators are college or university social work faculty members with M.S.W. degrees and a minimum of two years work experience.
The Council on Social Work Education mandates that social work programs establish minimum standards for field supervision and that supervisors are experienced social service agency personnel, preferably with a B.S.W. or M.S.W. degree. This formalized supervision results in consistently high standards of quality. Other undergraduate majors who have a field experience usually do not have formal, professional supervision.
Social work students at SUNY Plattsburgh must complete a minimum of 450 supervised hours of field experience, along with a seminar. Through their field practicums, students refine their professional social work skills and integrate classroom course content with on-the-job experience in service provision, outreach, networking, and resource development.
"My internship at CHES has been an amazing experience. I have had the great opportunity to work with students one on one, as well as in the classroom. This experience has given me the opportunity to develop many professional skills. I truly enjoyed working with the students and would recommend this experience to anyone."
"Interning at the TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury) center has been an amazing experience for me. It has helped me to develop personally and professionally. The interaction among the staff and clients has enhanced my skills as a future Social Worker. As a graduating senior, I will truly miss everyone at the center, but the gift of friendship and knowledge that I have received at the TBI center I will carry on throughout my life." — Nurys Nuesi
"The most important aspect of my internship at Literacy Volunteer of Clinton County is helping learners use their own resources to the fullest as they develop the skills to read and write. As I work one on one with learners, I begin to realize that their fullest potential comes from the growing confidence to strive." — Nicole Light
In addition to these internships, the field of social work in the North Country allows students to gain experience in some of the following placements as well:

text: Been getting mainly Alumahyde and Super Blue from them, and occasionally some small parts. This latest can of Alumahyde clogged nozzles within about 10-15 seconds of spray time. No matter how clean the nozzle was, and no matter how well you shook the can. I always clean my nozzles in thinner when I'm done, and blow them out with the air compressor. Swapped between 3 different nozzles, still the same. I contacted Brownells and without question they shipped me another can of Alumahyde and a bag of clean out nozzles. No fuss, no muss. Very pleasant surprise to not have to fight about it. A big +1 to them for their great customer service!!

Quotes of the day
posted at 8:31 pm on May 10, 2014 by Allahpundit
A year after it began, the IRS targeting controversy has been overtaken by the Benghazi attacks on the oversight agenda of House Republicans…
GOP lawmakers and aides say that the various IRS inquiries haven't uncovered anything like a recently discovered email on Benghazi, in which a key administration official briefs Susan Rice, then the United Nations ambassador, on upcoming Sunday show appearances…
Republicans also say that there are still multiple avenues they need to explore when it comes to Benghazi, while all roads lead to Lerner on the IRS investigation.
"You're doing a special prosecutor because you're actually focused on one person at this point who becomes the center point of what's happening," said Rep. James Lankford (R-Okla.), who is in the midst of a contested GOP Senate primary. "Benghazi is not dealing with one person at this point."
Where is the Democrats' Howard Baker? Where is the courageous member of President Obama's party willing to stand up and ask, "What did the president know, and when did he know it?"…
Baker helped bring Watergate out of the shadow of partisanship and into the sunlight of serious inquiry. When he took an adversarial role against the president of his own party, he added muscle and credibility to the Democrat-led hearings. And the nation sat transfixed, even while on vacation, as those hearings played out on TV in the summer of '73…
Without Democratic questioning, rather than blind support for the president, the major news media –except for Fox News — will continue to play the story that Obama and fellow Democrats are spinning: The Benghazi investigation is a partisan witch-hunt full of old news. And creation of a special House committee to look into the role of the White House in crafting the video story will continue to be dismissed as an election-year stunt by Republicans.
"[These are] very dangerous political waters," [Charles Krauthammer] said to Megyn Kelly on Fox News Thursday night. "Think about this, Megyn. If this is 2014, the winds are right behind the Republicans approaching the election on all the major issues."
The hearings, he said, can accordingly hurt the GOP as it approaches the midterms with some policy advantages.
"Benghazi hearings can only distract from this at best and really wreck it at worst if they turn into a partisan circus," Krauthammer said. "So far from being a political advantage for Republicans, this is a very high-risk operation and it requires someone like [House select committee chairman Rep. Trey] Gowdy."
The select committee will be headed by Rep. Trey Gowdy, a skilled 16-year prosecutor. He needs to keep the hearings clean and strictly fact-oriented. Questions only, no speechifying. Every sentence by every GOP committee member must end with a question mark. Should any committee Republican instead make a declarative statement ending in a period, the chairman should immediately, by button, deliver an electric shock through the violator's seat…
We now know the White House was pushing the "video made them do it" coverup, lest the blame be placed on administration policy. Who was involved in that decision, obviously designed to protect a president campaigning that al-Qaeda was "on the run"?
What difference does it make? The difference between truth and falsehood. The difference between a brazen stonewall that is exposed and one that succeeds…
[T]he country deserves the truth. They'll get it if the GOP can keep the proceedings clean, factual and dispassionate. No speeches. No grandstanding. Gowdy has got to be a tough disciplinarian — especially toward his own side of the aisle.
We are going on two years, and it now belongs to the ages. If the GOP decides that it wants to make uncovering what went on there — as well as the potential cover-up — a primary objective, is that not a legitimate project? Barack Obama arguably became president based on his opposition to the Iraq War. Was he exploiting the people who died for the liberation of Iraq, or was he taking a legitimate political stance on one of the defining questions of our time? Possibly, the answer is both.
What if Obama legitimately wanted to make sure Americans never again entered into such a quagmire? What if Republicans want to ensure another American ambassador is never again dragged through the streets — and that the American public gets to learn what really happened? Is that wrong?…
If you want to raise money to fight poverty, are you exploiting the poor? If you want to raise money to improve education, are you doing it on the backs of uneducated kids? It sort of depends, doesn't it? If you're a con artist or someone seeking personal aggrandizement, that's entirely different than if you are sincerely interested in changing things. Again, this comes back to how we view politics and politicians — how cynical we are about them…
At the end of the day, there is a very good reason why Republicans shouldn't raise money off of Benghazi, and that is that it is bad politics. For whatever reason, we have decided it is a bad thing — that the optics are bad, or that it creates the impression the select committee is tainted — and that is, in and of itself, enough reason not to do this. The irony, of course, is that raising money on Benghazi is actually more honest and direct — less phony — than putting forth the appearances that one is above such things. We are all phonies.
There is a simple fact about the Cairo demonstration that the Obama administration has been eager to ignore. The rally wasn't just anti-Innocence of Muslims; it was pro-al Qaeda. Dozens of al Qaeda flags were flown by the crowd. One of the black banners was raised to replace the Stars and Stripes above the embassy. And the protesters chanted, "Obama, Obama, we are all Osama!" The same chant would be heard at protests at other U.S. embassies in the days to come.
Not every protester who showed up at the Cairo rally was an al Qaeda supporter. But enough of them were. And the protest showed that men such as Mohammed al Zawahiri could use a previously obscure video to whip up anti-American outrage.
Eerily, the protests validated a key argument made by Ayman al Zawahiri, the head of al Qaeda, in a video released on September 10. The post-bin Laden al Qaeda master said that while the terrorist group has lost key leaders in its war with America, its ideology is spreading. That al Qaeda video cuts to a clip of Mohammed al Zawahiri proselytizing in Cairo just as the elder Zawahiri makes this argument. An al Qaeda flag flying over the U.S. embassy in Cairo the following day proved the point…
Contrary to the talking points of Ben Rhodes and the Obama administration, the terrorist attack in Ben-ghazi and the assaults on American embassies elsewhere in the fall of 2012 were a monumental "failure of policy." Rhodes and other administration officials, including President Obama, claimed during a presidential election year to have al Qaeda "on the run." Instead, groups that were, at a minimum, inspired by al Qaeda's ideology were growing and attacking American interests.
Consider what we've seen just over the past two months:
After repeatedly suggesting that they'd released all documents related to the Benghazi talking points, the administration was forced by a court to release some previously withheld emails. The White House explanation for its stonewalling? That the documents released as part of a FOIA request for documents about Benghazi were not, in fact, about Benghazi. This isn't a good-faith misunderstanding, it's an obvious attempt to deceive…
Obama administration officials have long claimed that Susan Rice was simply repeating intelligence community talking points in her September 16, 2012, television appearances. But those talking points didn't once mention the anti-Islam video that Rice placed at the center of her narrative. Indeed, in the 100 pages of emails related to the talking points, released by the White House in May 2013, the video was mentioned just twice—once on a list of cables and again as the subject line on an email concerning a White House meeting. If the intelligence community had believed that the video was the proximate cause of the Benghazi attacks, one assumes intelligence officials might have discussed it in emails. When former deputy CIA director Michael Morell was asked last month about Rice's reliance on the video, he testified: "When she talked about the video, my reaction was that was not something the analysts attributed this attack to."
Add these recent developments to the vast landscape of previously discredited claims from top administration officials—on al Qaeda involvement, on the talking points, on the video, on transparency—and you have an issue that demands further investigation.
To claim otherwise is, well, crazy.

Just started keeping bees this spring. I have done 6 cut outs so far, and all for free (I wanted/needed the bees!).
Now that I am stocked up on bees, I would like to charge to do cut outs. My issue is that I feel like if I am charging for a service, I suddenly become much more liable if something happens. I don't know if that is actually true.
Is just having a solid work order/contract good enough? What happens if their kids come outside and get all sortsa stung? Does anyone actually have insurance that covers their cut out work or is it usually under the table?
Thanks in advance.

Pay it Forward: 'Kits for Kids' helps homeless students
Volunteer nominates group for $500 assist
BEND, Ore. - For the thousands of homeless students on the High Desert, going to school can be nerve racking. Especially if they don't have a place to shower.
"I think all of us had a child in the class that was dirty, and other kids will tease them, or at least shy away a little bit," said Sandra Croney, a Kits for Kids organizer.
For the past six years,"Kits for Kids" at the first Presbyterian Church in Bend has been helping to fix that -- one shampoo bottle or box of soap at a time.
"Our first year, we did about 500 to 600 bags, and since then it's been 1,000," Croney said.
Handmade, donated cloth bags are filled with nine hygiene items, including toothpaste and toilet paper -- all things that can't be purchased with food stamps.
The FAN (Family Access Network) advocates then pick them up and deliver them to all the schools.
"There's just a huge need for the homeless students that's just floored me," said Jan Meredith, a volunteer for Kits for Kids.
Items that most kids see as everyday objects, other kids look at like Christmas presents.
"We've had thank you notes from families, and they said that this is like a Christmas gift. These are items they haven't seen in two or three months," said Marilyn Feis.
Jan nominated Kits for Kids for this month's Pay it Forward. On behalf of Mid-Oregon Credit Union, Co-Energy Propane and NewsChannel 21, we surprised the group with $500.
"To get $500 makes a huge difference. Each one of our kits cost $12 to make, and so that's a big chunk," Croney said.
"This is fantastic. Whatever we can do to make things better, I'm there," Meredith said.
The women say they wish there wasn't such a high need for these kits. But as long as there is, they'll be there for the kids.
"It just makes it so worth while for all the time we do put into it, it's so well worth it," Feis said.
If you would like to help donate items or make bags for Kits for Kids, visit bendfp.org.

For a brief period yesterday, all traffic from Syria to the rest of the Internet stopped. The nation of Syria has experienced two other incidents of the same nature over the last week. SiliconANGLE Founding Editor Mark "Rizzn" Hopkins explained that there are a limited number of lines going into Syria, consisting of a mixture of submarine and overland lines. Contrary to what the Syrian government has said about terrorists cutting the lines, he speculated that it was fairly unlikely that the lines had been cut, since all the lines would have had to been cut simultaneously for this type of outage to occur. He said a more
probable explanation is that a software kill switch or routing kill switch was involved.
The Syrian Minister of Information is being reported as saying that the government did not disable the Internet, and attributes the outage to a cable being cut. Hopkins responded, "Every analyst that looks at this, whether they're a political science or foreign policy analyst or technical expert, regards this as fairly unlikely." Hopkins referenced a report from Renesys that gave some theories as to what happened, such as this was possibly a cover for some kind of aggressive military operation that would make the Syrian
government look bad or a practice run for cutting off communications.
Hopkins' personal opinion is that this was some sort of action taken by the government and viewed both of the aforementioned Renesys theories as viable explanations. Hopkins commented on the impact of this outage by saying, "This is very economically damaging . . . especially in a country like Syria where there are very limited natural resources." At the time of the interview, outages were still on-going in Syria. See the entire segment with Kristin Feledy and Mark Hopkins on the Morning NewsDesk Show.

Take a moment this week to look to the skies and celebrate the anniversary of one of America's most enduring conspiracy theories: the 1947 crash of a military surveillance balloon on a ranch near Roswell, N.M. The federal government has only itself to blame if millions of people around the world believe the incident was proof that U.S. officials covered up the truth about extraterrestrial life.
The military in later years maintained that what was recovered at Roswell was a balloon launched by Project Mogul, once a hush-hush surveillance effort using high-altitude microphones to listen for sounds of Soviet atomic bomb tests. But at the time, U.S. officials were loath to admit they were keeping an eye (or high-flying ear) on their former World War II allies.
So it probably seemed like a good idea when Walter Haut, public information officer at the Roswell Army Air Field, issued a press release July 8, 1947, stating that the 509th Operations Group had recovered a "flying disk" at a ranch. Not surprisingly, the news made headlines around the world since, it seems, the military was confirming the existence of flying saucers.
The Army almost immediately changed its story — although still avoiding the truth — by claiming a "weather balloon" had crashed in New Mexico. But the damage had been done.
What followed over the next six decades was a prime example of modern myth-making in American culture. Dozens of books, documentaries, science fiction movies and television shows all celebrated the incident. The town of Roswell has tried to cash in on extraterrestrial tourism, with only modest success. But the real lesson of Roswell is the unintended consequences that ensue when governments refuse to level with their people.

Discussion in 'Football, Baseball, and Hockey' started by roscoe36, Apr 22, 2010.
Watch that video a split second before the hit. The dummy flinches. I think it was the air burst from Suh.
Suh gives back.....I would expect that his Lions contract will cover this...we may have a winner here with real character.. Suh gives back (video) YouTube - Suh Donates $2.6 Million to University of Nebraska
139 kg and that acceleration. :o
he is a beast, he is not going to dissappoint. I am really excited with the direction and aggression this regime ( Mayhew, Schwartz) has.
How come the Lions have only had 4 picks so far??? Anyhow, I think they did very well with their picks and I think they are FINALLY headed in the right direction. Can they get 6 wins next year? Maybe 8-8 after that? Then a winning record and the playoffs in three or four years? Sooner? Just lose on September 19th please. My friend at work is from Michigan and loves the Wolverines. He flew in for the Appalaichian (sp?) State game, lmao. Man, we gave him a hard time when he came back here.They HATE U of M out here. My friends HATE the Eagles because they are Dallas fans so if the Eagles lose to the Lions when I come back to Michigan for the game... Eagles had 9 picks already. They traded down a lot. They drafted some Defensive end in the third round that wasn't expected to go until round 7. I was like wtf??? I like their pick of the Northwestern quarterback Mike Kafka. Also liked a couple other picks. I can't remember. Did I tell you guys we got a family picture of all of us in Eagles stuff? Got a big canvas one too that we hung over the fireplace. I'd send you a picture by text, Rascoe, but I think it would cost me a lot to send it to a Cannuckian number wouldn't it? Or would it not be that much?
Ok...This explains why the Lions didn't have many picks. Lions rebuilding in unusual way - NFL - Yahoo! Sports
Can you call it rebuilding after all these years? Wouldn't it just be building?
52 years. BARELY more than a half century. Don't make things worse than they are, Linwood. Sheesh. NFL Championship Game, 1957 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia That's why I left them for the Eagles. They SUCK, huh?
I love it! The Lions picked a little white Mormon dude from freakin' Weber State. This will be entertaining. In other draft notes, BYU TE Dennis Pitta (Ravens, 4th round) was the only BYU player drafted, leaving QB Max Hall out of luck. Good luck to Pitta! He's a pretty tall guy and excelled at BYU where they feature tight ends much more prominently in their offense than many college teams are doing these days. Anyone know how the Ravens' offensive scheme utilizes their tight ends?
Out of over 75,000 votes, people think the Lions had the best draft in the entire NFL. NFL Football Teams, Scores, Stats, News, Standings, Rumors - National Football League - ESPN
I must be blind. Lots of good stuff for me to read on that page but where is the poll you are referring to?
I only wish Matt Millen traded more of his draft picks when he was here!
5' 10" and 185 pounds... If he's like Wes Welker, than I'll take him. My prediction...He's the Lion's steal of the draft. He'll have 40 or more receptions in 2010. We all may be singing a different "Toone" by week 8... Photo Viewer

Thanks. Looks like Lions and Seahawks tied with 27%. The West coast states voted like 80% for the Seahawks. The Midwest went overwhelmingly with the Lions. The East was neutral.
Pete Prisco of CBS Sports gave the Lions a "C" and the Eagles an "A+". I dunno. I think he was way too hard on the Lions and way to easy on the Eagles. But it is all subjective. Other writers say the Lions had an excellent draft.

I agree. I think the Lions should get maybe a B-. They did have a need at RB. I don't know about an A + for the Eagles.
I'd give the Lions an "A-". I'd give the Eagles a "C+".

Do you buy the ready made Pollen or can you make your own? Dale
Do you buy the ready made Pollen or can you make your own? Dale
Generally I do neither. When I do try to feed pollen I mix real pollen with commercial pollen substitue. The best thing is to trap your own pollen. I have not had real good sucess at feeding it though. When I put pollen in a hive the housekeepers just dump it in front of the hive. If I make a patty with honey and pollen, the bees just ignore it. Early in the spring I see my bees rolling in the chicken scratch and the chicken mash. So I would think they would want my some pollen. I think the best I could do would be to set an empty hive near where they are rolling and put some pollen and or substitue there. I have tried just using soy flour, but I think it's lacking in a lot of nutrieunts. The pollen substitute is better, but no where near as good as the pollen.
Good luck.
Russ, You can buy pollen. BUT, the best pollen for your bees is there own pollen. If you do not know where the pollen is coming from you may be getting things you do not want your bees to have. In the back of BEE CULTURE magazine there are ads for pollen. If you are interested in collecting your own pollen most bee supply catalogs have for sale pollen collecters. The Pollen Trap that I use, very sucessfully, is the Sundance Wooden Pollen Trap by Ross Rounds. I both sell to the public and feed the bees pollen. Steve
I trap pollen too, but usually for queens. You can make pollen patties with soybean flour, and some real pollen. It seems to be hit and miss with the bees, but if they are hungry, they will use it. Your own pollen from your area is the best though.

Bad Experience

After a few days of using 7.5g to 10g, I noticed that I had difficulty urinating, got headaches, my colds got worse, lost my appetite and the main reason why I stopped using L-Glutamine was because it caused depression and anxiety. All the symptoms alleviated after I stopped using this product. I've later read that L-Glutamine can be converted to excitotoxin in the brain and disrupts neurons, which would explain the depression and anxiety.

A multi-pronged analysis of global water resources indicates the supply of clean freshwater for use by humans and natural ecosystems is shrinking by the year, according to a University of Colorado at Boulder researcher.
Associate Professor Kenneth Strzepek of the civil, architectural and environmental engineering department said the analysis indicates one-third of the worlds population is currently living in regions that are classified as "water stressed." And, as the human population grows, more water will be needed for irrigation, livestock, industry and to sustain natural ecosystems.
"It is estimated under a business as usual scenario that by the year 2025, almost one-half of the population will be living in water-stressed regions," he said.
Strzepek and his colleagues have used sophisticated computer models and geographical information systems to look at river basins around the world and identify those that are the most stressed. Some of the "hot spots" include Chinas Yellow River basin, Africas Zambeze River basin, the Syr Darya and Amu Darya River basins leading to Russias Aral Sea and the Colorado River basin.
His research is part of a background analysis for the World Water Commissions "World Water Vision for the 21st Century" report. The commission is a government and privately funded organization seeking global solutions to water problems.
He said socioeconomics, geography, politics and the environment all need to be factored in to develop sound policy decisions. "We are using a broad-brush approach here, but major water-policy decisions require analysis and input from a wide number of disciplines."
Strzepek gave an invited talk on the subject at the annual fall meeting of the American Geophysical Union held Dec. 13 to Dec. 17 in San Francisco. He has been working on the project with CU graduates Alyssa Holt of the Stockholm Environmental Institute and Jeff Bandy of the University of Leuven in Belgium.
The modeling tools have allowed Strzepek and his colleagues to look at the vegetation, soils and climate from the headwaters to the mouths of the worlds major river systems in 25 mile-square chunks to model runoff and streamflow. They also have been able to use past temperature and precipitation data to reconstruct runoff and streamflow data for major river basins going back 100 years.
While reservoirs have long been used to change the distribution of river flows, evaporation can result in losses up to 25 percent of a rivers annual flow in arid and semi-arid years. Today, 70 percent of the worlds freshwater withdrawn by humans is used to irrigate crops, he said. Unfortunately, much of the irrigation water takes up pesticides, herbicides and salts from cropland soil and returns to the river system, polluting the water and adversely affecting humans and the environment.
"In the Nile Delta in Egypt, water quality is a major problem for human and agricultural use due to upstream pollution from agricultural, industrial and municipal uses," Strzepek said. "Similar situations are found in other river systems like the Indus River in Pakistan and the Yellow River in China."
A sustainable water supply is determined by the nature of a river basins hydrology and storage capacity. While more dams provide more water for humans, they cause environmental impacts, he said. Researchers factoring in some knowledge of aquatic ecosystems have set a goal that no more than 40 percent of a river basins water should be diverted for human use in order for the environment to be adequately protected, he said.
"In the Colorado River basin, however, 100 percent of the water is used," Strzepek said. While the average flow in the basin is 15 million acre-feet per year, only 1.5 million acre feet is delivered annually to Mexico and only a trickle remains as the Colorado River enters the Gulf of California in Mexico.
Strzepek said that developing sustainable water policy requires experts to gain input from "stakeholders" in the river basins regarding their own cultural and social values on sustainability. "In developing countries, especially in arid and semi-arid regions, this means involving women more in the water-management decision process. They are the primary water-gatherers and often bear the heaviest load in agricultural labor," he said.
"The goal of the World Water Commission is to make water everybodys business in the 21st century and to see that the needs of nature and humans are met as we pursue the task of sustainable economic growth," Strzepek said.

hey thats a cool idea, thanks for that!
backwards beekeeper? that last post was progressive !
hey thats a cool idea, thanks for that!
backwards beekeeper? that last post was progressive !
How heavy are the singles in the video when you put them in the building?
I wouldn't spend a lot of time in the building even with the red lights. They still like to fly and crawl at 40 F and they don't usually make it back to the hive.
Ya Nick, I only have the lights on when sweeping he floor or checking my fans. Even the red lights disturb them enough to get the odd straggler wandering out. Nothing like white lights though.
For the most part the singles went in between 75-90 lbs.
Your Welcome! Dreamed it up after lots of trial and error or should I say mostly error! ha ha
Now I am kicking around the idea of a slide in screen in that top entrance by cutting a groove in the top cleat kinda like a sliding window in your house. This is for moving my bees as I like to screen and net the load unless it is a short move then it is screen and load and go. Currently I just staple stout alum expanded mesh over the entrances using a slap stapler but by the time I get one stapled the bees on the rest of the pallet are boiling out b/c they feel the stapler hitting the other boxes and they know the routine even at night. So I figure if I can just walk around and slide the screened windows (entrances) shut it will save a lot of time and I will not leave hardly any bees behind when moving them! Mtn Bee
Id love pictures of that, but cant take a picture of your thoughts, right?!
I think it incredibly interesting hearing other beekeepers "ways" or "doodads" they have come up with to make this work easier.
Dont even get me started on the project I initiated this winter to help pull honey!
We have dumped granulated sugar (dryvert would be better) in them in the shed. I think we did more harm (disruption) than good.
Ian I will send you some pics once I have the prototype built and you can let me know what you think. Always great to hear input from other beeks and get there 2 cents for something that might have been staring me in the face but was overlooked or in other words "Beek Tunnel Vision".
what made you make the decision to dump dry sugar on the hives while inside? and how exactly did you do that? Must of moved them and opened them up? Ya, I would think that would add alot of stress on them
Nick, interesting your experience is 40 F as to when difficulties arise in the wintering shed. I very comfortable with temperature up to about 50 F and not too concerned if temperatures reach mid 50's F in spring for a couple of hours. If I want to work in the wintering shed, I normally drop the temperature down to 35 F or so.
Ian, I will try to post some pictures next week showing the wire supports the beekeepers that fed with the tubs used. The holes were very small. I think they made them with a small nail.
Ian, I'm curious as to survival rates. What are your survival rates now compared to your pre-shed days?
ran a 7% loss last year
With the long 4-5 months and your bees not being able to go out on cleansing flights I was wondering if there is a defecation mess inside the hives come spring and if so are you doing anything to clean up the insides of the hives in March or do the bees take care of the cleanup?
With my winters here in Southeast Ohio the bees rarely go a month between cleansing flights, and they usually fly every 2-3 weeks so my original question is one of curiosity as to what the bees can endure in extreme conditions and what it is you all do to help them if needed......Thanks
Bill...in Southeast Ohio Zone 6A, Never look down on anybody unless you are helping them up
no, there is no mess. On a few hives, that have issues with nosema or disentry the frount of the hives will be messed up, but usually the insides of the hives are fine. Any hive that messes up the frount usually doesnt make it.
Thanks for the insight Ian, that is pretty amazing that bees stay holed up that long without cleansing flights. You have quite a setup going, I wish you the best for this coming spring.
Bill...in Southeast Ohio Zone 6A, Never look down on anybody unless you are helping them up
Ian back on the idea of top entrance:
What about using a small fan to blow in the granulated sugar into the NUCs? I was thinking about that and I know mannlake or someone sells a sugar blower. I would think that would pack enough granulated sugar into each NUC to give them emergency feed. That of course is whether or not you have upper entrances.
Maybe It could work the same with lower entrances.
Food for thought


text: Hi, I'm troubleshooting an issue with my front end. It started recently while I was away and my fiance was driving it. She said she hit the curb once, but didn't think she hit it that hard. It pulls to the right. A little at first, then more and more as I drive. Eventually, it's quite difficult to keep straight. I had replaced the brake pads and shocks a little while ago, but didn't do the rotors or bearings. So, it seemed a good theory that there was a bad bearing. So I replaced both rotor/hub assemblies with all new bearings. Went well. Brakes feel nice. Didn't help the pulling. I'm looking for ideas on how to troubleshoot this and confirm a diagnosis before spending too much more money. It's an old truck that I would rather not take to a shop as they will tell me it needs new ball joints, bushings, and everything else they can hit me up for. The truck rode like a champ before I left town, so I just want to fix this problem and get back to driving it, not replace the whole front end because it's old. Any thoughts on where to start?

Gerry Voisine
Gerry Voisine: UTSA volunteer coordinator recognized for service at elementary school
By Alison Beshur
Public Affairs Specialist
(July 12, 2006)--Gerry Voisine never tires of finding ways to help others.
For her service as a mentor at Herff Elementary, the San Antonio Independent School District has awarded Voisine the Outstanding Mentor/Volunteer Award, one of four awards given annually to recognize outstanding partners in San Antonio.
Today's headlines
- La Prensa Foundation is newest member of UTSA Lone Star Society
- UTSA alumna Jordan Kaufmann wins $50K for new stent-graft start-up
- UTSA begins new way-finding sign installation this summer at Main Campus
- USA Today: UTSA long jumper Tyler Williamson rescues three-year-old boy

Voisine, a volunteer coordinator at UTSA's Institute of Texan Cultures, has helped students at Herff with reading assignments, craft projects, garden planting and other activities for six years. Before volunteering at Herff, Voisine helped out at Travis Elementary.
"I learned at a young age the rewards of volunteering," said Voisine, who landed her first paid job out of a volunteer position. "There is the excitement of learning a new skill, the enjoyment of making new friends and the pleasure of filling a need."
Mary Ellen Smith, ITC director of volunteer programs, called Gerry an "inspiration" and noted the size of the district that recognized Voisine.
"The SAISD has more than 56,000 students enrolled in more than 90 schools, and for Gerry to have been singled out for recognition is quite an achievement," Smith said. "She is so humble about everything she does that I don?t think she would?ve told me if she hadn?t been concerned that I might hear it from someone else."
Despite her recent recognition, Voisine insists she is the beneficiary of her time spent serving the first through fourth graders. "They are sponges soaking up everything and eager to learn," Voisine said. "There is little that can match the warm feeling you get as you walk in and everyone (without prompting) says, 'Hi, Ms. Gerry' and demonstrates they are happy to see you. All of the students vie to be the one (or ones) chosen to work with me."
Additionally, Voisine said her volunteer service elsewhere enhances her work with volunteers and docents at UTSA's ITC, where she has worked for more than 22 years.
"Doing so helps remind me of why people volunteer, what makes a good experience," Voisine said.

Before and after qEEGs – HBOTTuesday, August 30th, 2011
As written by Rick Neubrander.
This is the 2nd post in the "Pretty Pictures" series. To review the first post, see Pretty pictures from qEEGs and what they show.
The last article about pretty pictures that showed qEEG information of patients using biomed treatments was admittedly a teaser to whet your appetite to learn more about qEEGs as a means to validate a treatment by showing the improvements in the electrical patterns of the brain. Before I continue with this post I will reiterate what we learned in the previous post that "GREEN IS GOOD — LINES ARE BAD." That rule will apply for all the images that follow. Also remember that the bump at the front of each head map is the nose; the two bumps on the sides are the ears and your vantage point is from above as if you are looking down on the child's head facing forward.
Speech and language centers—receptive, expressive, and integrative–are often impaired in children on the autism spectrum. For the majority of children, speech is something that is predominantly a left brain function. Because this post is focusing on speech and the improvements that can be seen from the types of therapy we do at our clinic using our specific protocols, the next set of images I will present will highlight changes that occurred in the left side of the brain. Changes that are necessary for improved speech and language are predominantly functions of the left temporal lobe, posterior-inferior frontal lobe, and portions of the anterior-inferior parietal lobe. As you look at the picture above, the areas involved in speech and language are represented by a region that is several centimeters in size and lies adjacent to where the red (frontal lobe), green (temporal lobe), and gold (parietal lobe) come together and touch each other. Unfortunately the brain is not so simple as to just use these areas for effective speech and language. Therefore, for many children to effectively understand language and effectively speak, the brain often calls upon anatomically similar regions on the right side of the brain to help it out.
In the "BEFORE" image, you see VERY LITTLE GREEN on the left side of the brain. Instead you see yellow, orange and red brain wave activity that represents overactivity. This overactivity causes interference in the child's ability to understand spoken language, process it appropriately, and then speak effectively. The following analogy should help you understand this concept better. If a child's teacher is in a quiet room and asks, "Tell me what you did last night," the child first hears the question (receptive language), processes what the teacher wants to be done (integrative language), and then tells the teacher the answer to what was asked (expressive language). However, if the radio or TV is blaring away (analogous to excess brain activity depicted as yellow, orange, or red on a QEEG), depending on how loud it is and how close the child is to the teacher will determine how much the child hears the question, can process what to do, and then give the teacher the correct answer. The reason is obvious why language did not occur at the desired moment in time, that being because there was too much activity and interference (analogous to "colors" other than green and interference "lines").
The pictures below show young five and a half year old boy who came to our office naïve to biomedical treatments. Dr. Neubrander started him on two distinct protocols he has developed that combine methyl-B12 and soft chamber HBOT in very specific ways.
After implementing our protocols over the course of 30 days, a different pattern emerged. In the "AFTER" image, you now see A LOT OF GREEN on the left side of the brain. These green areas are the areas that correspond to the speech and language centers and demonstrate that within 30 days of intense therapy, following very specific protocols, we had made substantial"electrical improvements" in the speech and language regions of the brain. This corresponded to major "clinical improvements" documented by significant gains in language as well as cognition. Though I have not discussed it previously, the area of the brain that is responsible for executive functions–how we think and act–is located in the frontal lobes of the brain (the red area in the picture at the beginning of this post). As you compare the before and after pictures above, and additional before and after pictures of this child that will follow immediately below, not only do you see substantial improvements in the language zones, but you also see significant positive changes in both the left and right frontal areas of the brain responsible for executive functions. This is the reason that the child's parents were amazed at how much his awareness had improved, how he was now "present" to the things going on all around him, and how he was (according to their own words), "now in our world!" As you study the before and after images below, you will see that they demonstrate quite nicely that many areas of the brain were improving, not just his speech and language centers. Though probably unnecessary, it is important to point out the obvious, that being that we cannot fix the brain in 30 days. Therefore you will see that though the "after" picture is much better than the "before" picture, we still have more work to do to "finish the job".
Before I move on to the next case, I believe that it is important to point out that treatments need to be continued for the best results. Fortunately this boy's family continued following Dr. Neubrander's treatment protocols and by their 12 month follow-up, their child had continued to make significant progress and was well on his way to full or almost full recovery, something that typically requires two to three years of combined types of treatments to achieve.
In the prior blog post we showed before and after "Qs" using our MB12 protocol. You should go back and review the "Case 2: MB12 only" images now that you have a better understanding of what information the "Q" shows in relation to the improvements seen in the areas of the brain that controls our speech and language and cognitive functions. Notice the red on the left side, as well as the red in the front and on the right side is also gone and the tremendous number of red lines is also greatly reduced.
To end this post I am going to introduce a set of "Qs" using another one of our protocols, HBOT at 1.5 atmospheres of pressure. Below the "pretty pictures" I will be quoting the doctor's notes after 30 days of treatment. Pay close attention to the left side of the brain and read the doctor's notes below.
From the doctor's notes:
- A severely autistic 7 year old male from a foreign country presented to me totally naïve to biomedical treatments
- He was started on methyl-B12 shots once every three days, basic antioxidants, and my 1.5 atmosphere HBOT "Diagnostic Protocol"
- My speech pathologist evaluated him at baseline and again after 30 days of therapy
- At the end of the 30 days, the parents and speech pathologist reported the following:
- Per the parents: "Mild improvements in speech and language, cognitive abilities, socialization, and emotional responses."
- Per the speech pathologist: "From my evaluation there is an 8 month improvement in receptive language and a 16 month improvement in expressive language."
So ends this post. I hope that you are able to see the value in how a qEEG can be used to document the progress a treatment makes in a patient. Most people do not need a "Q" to see the progress of a treatment as they can observe the patient's positive or negative gains by the behaviors expressed. But for those who have had a "before" and "after" qEEG performed, the documentation it provides will let parents and the doctor see how effective a treatment is for the patient. In addition, if no "immediate gains" were noted, or if gains were not as strong or as intense as the parents wanted to see, the "Q" will help everyone see that the treatment is a valuable one for the child and therefore a treatment that needs to be continued long enough for the hoped-for benefits to be realized by all.
Stay tuned as next week we shall investigate the X spot in autism.

When I was much younger, [1960's] electronic "music" was emerging as a musical art form and I found it interesting.
I found this one with video, called "Bee Clouds" while searching other music and sounds. Hope it works and others may find it interesting. Takes a few seconds to load up; only 3:00 minutes long though. I like it! 1t would be great with big powerful speakers,... I could rock my truck and listen to that on the way to the bees, rather than any of todays music.

But Jobs posthumously floated a whopper by allowing Walter Isaacson to quote that he "finally cracked it," in reference to a mythical Apple HDTV. Some decent pieces have been written about the features an Apple HDTV could have and the content partnership doors it could open, but David Chartier thinks the specific nut Jobs was referring to is iCloud.

"Diana Smith has been an invaluable asset to the Institute of Texan Cultures and the Texas Folklife Festival," said JoAnn Andera, Texas Folklife Festival director. "Her cheerful spirit and kind heart have made countless friends for ITC and the Festival. The festival would not be where it is today if it were not for her influence and hard work. She will be greatly missed."
"When I stepped into the Institute of Texan Cultures for the first time, I didn't know that a job could so easily become a career and a passion," said Smith. "The opportunities afforded to me over the last 30 years are countless. Working and playing with 10,000 of the most unique characters the State of Texas offers is at the top of the list. But, more important are the creative and caring people I have had the privilege to work with throughout the years. Thanks for the memories."
Smith joined the ITC library in 1974 and spent 4 years in the production division. In 1983, after completing a B.B.A. degree with a concentration in management, she began working with the Texas Folklife Festival as assistant director.

To be cont...... Will see how he does this season to see if thats true or not. I dont blame the Giants for passing on him because of his injury even though I wanted them to draft him. I had no qualms about the Joseph pick at all he is a nice player. I doubt we resign him but he is a nice player

Serves 4
Prep Time 40 min
Total Time 40 min.
Step 1
To prepare apricot sauce: Combine apricots and orange juice in a small microwave-safe bowl and microwave on High until bubbling, about 1 minute. Set aside to soften for 10 minutes. Transfer the apricot mixture to a food processor or blender. Add mint, water and vinegar; puree until smooth.
Step 2
To prepare lamb kafta: Place couscous in a medium bowl. Pour boiling water over it and let stand until the water is absorbed, about 5 minutes. Add lamb, parsley, garlic, salt and allspice to the couscous and knead until the mixture is sticky and holds together. Form into 6 balls of equal size.
Step 3
Heat oil in a medium nonstick skillet. Add the meatballs and cook, turning often to prevent scorching, until browned on all sides, about 6 minutes. Pour 1/2 cup water into the skillet, cover and cook until the meatballs are cooked through, about 4 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the meatballs to a plate. Serve the meatballs inside pitas topped with the apricot sauce.

OK with the new changes here on the site leaving feedback is very simple. But the links to do it are not the most noticeable so I will tell you where they are and how easy it is to do. If you look down at the bottom left side of this Post you will see a Green Check Mark beside the Check Mark it says----
---------------------------- " Rate Buyer/Seller "---------------------------------So when you buy or sell an item all you need to do is go to the thread where the add was that you bought or sold from. IE if you are the seller go to your add, if you are the buyer go to the sellers add you bought the item from or if it was a trade go to that add. Click on the Check Mark at the bottom left and it takes you to a page where all you need to do is list whether you were the Buyer, Seller or it was a Trade. Then rate the transaction Positive,Neutral or Negative then leave a few words about the deal. When you are done hit Submit Reply and you have left feedback.
Now I am not sure if Admin can do it but hopefully you can use this thread to see how it works by clicking on the Green Check Mark and then you can see how it works. So click the Check Mark and take a look.
We should all leave Feedback on each deal we have so that others here on the site can have an idea of who they are dealing with.
OK it seems that clicking the Check Mark doesn't work to leave feedback if the Thread/Add is your own.
I am going to explain this so people who are not very computer savvy can understand how to leave feedback. It might also be helpful to open another Tab so you can look at the directions as you follow them on the other Tab/Page, for Firefox users the plus + sign you see next to the tab with this site listed on it click it to open another tab and then in that tab come to this site. For Explorer users it is the little blank you see next to the name of the sight you are looking at click it to open another tab. What I am talking about is right above this page as you are looking at it the tabs start on the left.
So I will explain how to leave feedback for adds you have created as a buyer/seller or a trade. First thing to do is go to the thread/add and right click on the thread URL, the address of the thread/add. For those that don't know it is where you type the address of the web page or site you want to go to. When you right click it will highlight and a drop down menu will appear, hold your cursor over copy and left click it, you have copied the URL that you will need to leave feedback. Now you can go to the profile of the person you are leaving feedback for, just find a post or thread by them(should have their name in your PMs as well) click on their user name and select profile you will go to their profile page.
Now you are on their Profile page, you will see an orange box that says Visitor Messages to the left you will see the word Feedback click on it. Now you will see the persons feedback and in Bold Letters ---'Submit Feedback for (persons user name)' click on it and and go to " Deal thread URL:: (Required) " hold your cursor over the white box next to the words and right click and then click paste and you have entered the deal URL. Now use the drop down menu for "You were the:" pick the one you were in the deal then, the drop down for "Overall experience:" .. Now all you need to do is type in what you felt about the deal "A short comment: (Visible to all) " and then "Additional comments: (Visible to buyer, seller
and staff only) " after that all you need to do is hit " Submit Reply " and you have left feedback .
I have made the explanation rather long but wanted to make sure most everyone could follow the directions. It is a lot easier then all that typing may make it seem.
We should all leave feedback and it only takes a few minutes to do, you can practice in this thread by picking any add here and copying it IE right click the URL then come here and practice using the feedback system. Or if you still have trouble PM me or a Classifieds MOD who will do their best to help. I hope this explains it well enough for you...Randy
Thanks to AT member ravensgait for taking the time a creating this tutorial!

"Big brother" and the outside world are watching.
by Patti Hurtgen, Hoard's Dairyman Online Media Manager
As the online media manger, much of my day is spent online. As a publication, we share new stories with those interested in dairy cattle. However, as an individual, you need to be careful of what you share and with whom. People can learn a lot about you without doing a lot of digging.
Consumer Reports states that issues with privacy are on the rise. Who is looking at your Facebook page or Twitter profile? We would be naïve to believe only our friends and family are interested in our activities. Criminals are often lurking for information that you inadvertently provide such as your birthdate or your travel plans. How often does a security question for banking or credit cards ask for your birthdate or mother's maiden name? If you are a female who uses her maiden name on Facebook to be more recognizable to high school friends, be careful, that information can be used against you. Indicating your family connections, gives a good indication of maiden names, too. For adult, employers, lawyers and private investigators can view your activities if your settings are not as stringent as they could be. Whatever the reason, think about the information you make available to those on the web.
Your posted activities and discussion can share
- Health details that your insurance company may be interested to know.
- Your travel plans. If you are in not at home, your house becomes a target for thieves.
- Your birthday, which can give identity thieves a key piece of information.
So while you might like to get an abundance of Happy Birthday posts on your wall, be cognizant of who is reading your profile. Potential employers have every right to check out your public page to see the type of activities you are involved with. What they find may cost you a great opportunity.
For students applying for internships or scholarships, potential employers or scholarship evaluators can see the activities of the applicant on their Facebook pages. Over 2.6 million Facebook users discussed recreational use of alcohol on their wall, and if they are under age, it alerts others that this individual does not obey the law. What kind of employee would they be when company rules are outlined?
If you're supposed to be home sick and you check-in at Wrigley Field on Foursquare, or when you told your employer there was a family emergency and you post photos from your skiing adventure that afternoon, your deception will catch up with you because of social media.
Liking pages which may offend others may not seem like a big deal, but affiliations with subjective behavior is not in your best interest if you are looking for a job or a scholarship. Commenting on pages with inappropriate language on Facebook or via Twitter speaks volumes as to your level of maturity.
If you serve as an officer in an organization or are royalty for a breed association, you are a reflection of the organization. Does your online behavior truly reflect the values and beliefs of those you represent? Who knows who is watching you. Set your privacy controls to keep strangers from seeing your posts, or better yet, think before you post.

text: (Cross-posted in Tailgate Zone, hopefully it can stay in the main forum as well for a couple of days.) Hey all, I'm heading out of town for a few days, but wanted to update all those who were planning on coming to the Cowboys/Skins game this Sunday. We'll be having our second annual BEAT THE SKINS Party. The location this year is in the Purple A2 lot (near the limo lots). If you look at the map: http://www.redskins.com/fedexfield/ParkingGuide.pdf The Purple A2 lot is convenient to both the metro drop off (B2) and is also relatively convenient if you Metro to the end of the Blue Line (Morgan Boulevard Station) and walk up Morgan Blvd to the stadium. We'll be setting up hopefully around Noon, when the lots open, and partying till around 3:30. I'll have my DirecTV set up so we can watch the early games. I'll try to have at least dogs and brews for anyone who shows up, but if you want to bring your own eats and drinks you're welcome to as well and use our grills and coolers. We should have maybe 20 people, almost all of which are Cowboys fans. If you want to come, PM me by Saturday night and I'll give you my cell number so you can call me Sunday when you're at the stadium and I'll let you know how to find us!

MySQL 5.7 Release Notes

Nabber, I look at the readings as relative so I don't care really how accurate the hydrometer is. As a relative instrument it is quite accurate. Is the temperature correction scale necessary? Not really, until you get to the last reading.
I have a question for the gurus: If you are happy with your creation is there a way to stop it where it is without dumping chemicals (mostly phosphates) into your batch? Does bottling it keep it from fermenting more?

BTW..TC was WAY off base on his whining about that last play. How cvamn you complain about a team who plays hard on every play?
Frankly I'm friggin sick of NFL teams just standing around and letting a QB take a knee. Try to force him to fumble as far as I'm concerned.
When did TC get so soft. Our O got caught with their pants down and he was whining about it.

text: During any pregnancy the baby is always cushioned by the amniotic fluid made of bag containing membranes. In cases where there is a tear in the bag due to any form of damage then the fluid leaks out through the cervix into the vagina a situation normally referred to as water breaking. This scenario is common for those cases where the pregnant mothers are not careful on what they do to care for their unborn babies as they carry out many different activities of the day. Many women are prone to this situation as they approach the end of those first stages of labor.
