In Missouri, people commit identity theft, also called identity fraud, by using other people's personal information for their own gain. Identity thieves "steal" personal information from public records, online sources, trash, mail, purses, and wallets, and use the information to access the victim's bank accounts and credit cards, or establish new accounts and run up debt, ruining the victim's credit.
For general information on the crime of identity theft, see The Crime of Identity Theft.
Under Missouri's laws, a person commits the crime of identity theft by possessing, using, or transferring (or attempting to posses, use, or transfer) the means of identification belonging to another with the intent to deceive or defraud (obtain something of value by deception).
"Means of identification" is another way of saying "personal identifying information" and includes:
For example, going into a person's home and taking a lockbox containing the person's birth certificate, social security card, and financial documents in order to open credit card accounts in the victim's name is identity theft. The crime is completed when the defendant takes possession of the victim's means of identification for an illicit purpose, even if the thief never actually uses the information. (Mo. Rev. Stat. § 570.223.)
Missouri's identity theft law is broad and intended to cover lots of different criminal activity. Missouri also has a law against obtaining a credit or debit card by fraud. It is a crime to:
For example, a person who gives a false name to open a utility account has committed a crime. However, it is not a crime to use another person's credit card with the person's consent. A child who uses a parent's card with permission has not committed a crime. (Mo. Rev. Stat. § 570.135.)
In Missouri, a minor who obtains the personal identifying information of another in order to buy alcohol or cigarettes or gamble is not guilty of identity theft. It is, however, a crime to use or possess means of identification in order to manufacture or sell false identification to people under the age of 21 for the purpose of purchasing alcohol. A teenager who possesses a fake identification card in order to visit bars has not committed identity fraud, but the person who made and sold the card may have committed a crime. (Mo. Rev. Stat. § 570.223.)
For more information on minor's buying and possessing alcohol, see Missouri Minor in Possession of Alcohol Laws.
A person who manufactures, transfers, buys, sells, or possesses with intent to sell means of identification in order to commit identity fraud commits the crime of trafficking in stolen identities. Possession of five or more means of identification for one person or the means of identification for five or more people without the victims' consent and other than the defendant's own means of identification is evidence of intent to commit identity theft. For example, a person who is found with a stash of 100 credit card numbers (not his or her own) could be convicted of trafficking. (Mo. Rev. Stat. § 570.224.)
The punishment for identity theft in Missouri depends on the amount of the resulting loss. For example, identity theft that results in theft of more than $50,000 is a class A felony, punishable by a minimum of 10 years in prison and a maximum of 30 years' or life imprisonment. Identity theft that does not result in any losses is a class B misdemeanor, punishable by up to six months in jail and a fine of up to $500. Second and subsequent convictions may be punished more severely. The court may also order the defendant to pay restitution to the victim for any costs incurred by the victim as a result of the crime, including the cost of clearing the victim's credit history. The defendant may also be liable to the victim for civil damages.
Trafficking in stolen identities is a class B felony, punishable by five to 15 years in prison. It is a class A misdemeanor to:
Class A misdemeanors are punishable by up to one year in jail, a fine of up to $1,000, or both.
(Mo. Rev. Stat. § § 570.135, 570.223, 570.224.)
If you are charged with identity theft or a related crime, you should contact a Missouri criminal defense attorney. An attorney can help you understand the charges against you and help you determine your best options. With an attorney's help, you can protect your rights and successfully navigate the criminal justice system. If you are a victim of identity theft, you may also want to consult with an attorney, since you may be able to recover damages from the thief in civil court.

It's become a ritual of the Flyers to allow some opposing player in a scoring drought to snap it and get back into the points column with the rest of his teammates and colleagues.
Frankly, it's embarrassing.
How many times this season have we heard Jim Jackson say something like, "[First][Last Name] has now scored his first goal in [an obscene amount of] games! Only his [single digit] goal of the season," after he had just planted it behind Bryzgalov or Bobrovsky?
This past weekend was a Philadelphia sports fan's nightmare. It's sent me into the work week feeling miserable, physically ill, and so furious that I just don't know what to do with myself.
Saturday's match up against the New Jersey Devils was a heaving kick to the groins. It seems every season the NHL puts out a schedule of games that slaps our Flyers in two or three afternoon trap games, and ALWAYS versus the Devils.
Now, if you aren't familiar with the phrase "trap game", it is game your team enters into with the tendency of already having their minds on the following game. Traditionally this leads your team to underestimate the current opponent at hand, therefore falling to them in a final decision.
That's exactly what happened Saturday afternoon when our boys got spanked 6 - 4 by New Jersey. Twenty-four hours later the Flyers skated onto Madison Square Garden's ice where they faced off against the Rangers for the first time since the Winter Classic.
Despite two game tying goals by the orange & black, Ilya Bryzgalov let up two unbelievably soft shots which eliminated the Flyers chances of keeping the game tied or going ahead.
Saturday and Sunday. Two games. Two losses. Both in regulation time. Oh, and the New York football Giants won the goddamn Super Bowl last night. A team that had no business even being in the post-season is now the NFL's 2011 Champion.
Since the All-Star break, the Flyers have a 1 - 2 - 1 record and look to take on the Islanders tomorrow night in Philadelphia. After their last tilt against the Isles, no one's feeling confident that Philly can put them away and get back on the winning track.
In fact, before the puck even drops I've gone to Islanders roster to see which of their skaters hasn't contributed to the goal-scoring column in awhile.
So I can choose them as a scorer for the evening and win some money.
Like I said when I began this article -- The Flyers have made it a 2011-12 tradition to allow a countering player to nourish his parched stats sheet. Let's take a look at past opponents and examples since the Winter Classic to give us some perspective:
In case you're asking, I skipped one game in that list of contests since our match up under Philadelphia's night sky, and that was our meeting against the Islanders on January 12th where Okposo and Tavares scored on our netminder. Neither were in the midst of any goal-scoring struggle.
Don't let it fool you, the Winter Classic is NOT where this established practice of players breaking skids against us began. It dates behind January 2nd as well. This list is just a window to show you how ridiculous it's become. Is it coincidence? Maybe. But that's one hell of a chunk of synchronism.
So what does it tell us?
It could mean a variety of things; Soft goals, an over-aggressive defense putting more pressure on the scorers while leaving the scrubs open, defective backchecking, etc etc etc. It's gotta stop.
Oh, and if you're looking to make easy money tomorrow night then I suggest checking out the Islanders stats sheet. Find a player who hasn't raised his teammates arms in the air since we were hearing Christmas music, and drop $100 on him splitting our wickets.

Hezbollah has sent its forces into Syria in order to assist President Bashar al-Assad in his struggle with rebels demanding an end to the dictatorship which has ruled the nation for fifty years. Rebels reported that rockets were fired by Hezbollah units on their positions and that members of that organization are now fighting alongside Assad forces. Hezbollah has long been an ally of Iran and the Syrian regime.
As rebel troops in Syria fight to gain control of border villages they come in contact with Hezbollah forces which are strong in those areas. Some reports indicate that thousands of Hez bollah militants are now in Syria. The presence of Hezbollah simply adds another twist to the confused world of the Middle East.
Hezbollah is mainly Shiite. Most Palestinians are mainly Sunni. Most Palestinains support rebels in Syria. So, we now have a group claiming to be on the side of Palestinians attacking people that are supported by Palestinians. Perhaps, the world now understands why Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu can do what he desires since his opponents are hopelessly divided.

UPDATE: Hearing For Gun-In-Ambulance Case
A woman accused of pulling a gun on a paramedic in the back of an ambulance was bound over to trial Tuesday.
24-year-old Justine Dubois appeared in Douglas County Court on Tuesday for her preliminary hearing.
Dubois was arrested July 1, accused of driving a stolen car, but then appeared to have a seizure in the police car.
Police say that while paramedics were taking Dubois to a hospital, she pulled a gun and started making threats. Both Dubois and an Omaha firefighter were wounded by gunfire in a struggle.
Dubois is charged with assault, making terroristic threats, using a gun to commit a crime and stealing a car.
In court on Tuesday, prosecutors said officials believe Dubois hid the .357 revolver in a wadded-up shirt that she had in the waistband of her pants.
No date for a trial has yet been set.

Bath Panels, particularly the decorative styles make upgrading the look of your bathroom so easy. One simple addition can make the world of difference and that's why the bath panel has exploded in popularity over the last year or two. With hundreds of designs and finishes to choose from, including wood, mirrors and even panels with hidden storage; there's no doubt there's something for everyone. Plumbworld has realised the need is at an all time high and they've kept their prices low without sacrificing on build quality to ensure everyone can take advantage. The addition of a quality panel can provide the finishing touch your bathroom needs to be complete.

Bath panels are one of the easiest and most effective upgrades you can make in the bathroom, there are things that you need to consider. First off is sealing to avoid water ingress. Although a lot of panels are sealed at the factory, if you're cutting them down to size you'll certainly need to reseal the edges before installing. It's also good practice and recommended on a lot of panels to do this anyway in order to maintain warranty. The following things are also factors that need to be considered before purchasing.
Dimensions & Sizes: They can come in a variety of sizes, but by far the most common is the 1700mm panel. This caters to over 90% of baths out there and most can be cut down in order to fit smaller sized baths without damaging the finish or veneer. A plinth is supplied with a lot of bath panels in order to adjust the height of the main panel to ensure maximum compatibility with your bath. Matching end panels are sold separately for those that have the end of their bath on show, whereas a front panel alone will suffice for those who have their bath in an alcove. Again, check dimensions carefully to ensure your bath is compatible with the panel – consult a fitter if you're unsure.
Type Of Bath: The majority of bath panels are designed for straight single or double ended baths and that's where the most diverse designs lie. If you're looking for a replacement panel for your brand new 1700mm bath you will have no problem finding one as the choice is truly extensive. However, if you've recently purchased a P-shaped or L-shaped shower bath, you sadly won't have the same variety to choose from. Because they are less common, designs are considerably more limited, but that doesn't mean upgrading the look and feel of the room is impossible, far from it. It should also be noted that if your bath has whirlpool jets, many panels will not be compatible due to the whirlpool feature. That said, there are a lot of dedicated whirlpool bath panels out there that will be suitable.
Features & Designs: At Plumbworld we separate bath panels into three distinct categories to make browsing for your perfect upgrade even easier. Standard, decorative and storage panels. All three offer completely different features and are suitable for various bathroom requirements. The standard bath panels provide a clean look and are most commonly found in plain white or a wooden finish. Decorative bath panels are exactly what they claim to be and they offer far more design options over a standard panel. These are ideal for people who are looking to draw a bit more attention and focus to the bath without going over the top. This category includes panels with intricate designs, mirrors, frosted panels, strips and combinations of each – without doubt the most popular option. Some also offer a storage area behind the main panel by providing easy access through the use of a sliding or removable single panel. Ideal for bathrooms where storage space is an issue as toiletries or cleaning equipment can be kept here. Some are lockable to ensure children can't get into the area.

3. Will a symbol do anything? Is posting a pic on Facebook, or here, any sort of power, well probably not. But it does show my support for the cause, no different than I am very proud of the American Flag when I see it or use it. It is a symbol, and symbols invoke hope.
4. Did I do this as an experiment? Well frankly yes. After posting it on Facebook, a forum with broad public view in which most people use their real names, 99% has been positive. So I wondered how it would go here, where people hide behind usernames and faceless avatars. I do know many of you personally, and I really wasn't surprised by the answers I've seen from those of you I know. Those of you I don't know are the ones that tend to be more extreme. Very interesting!

It's time to reveal the Gunners' Greatest 50 Goals - as voted for by Arsenal's fans.
Dennis Bergkamp was always going to feature in this list. The question is: how often?
His first contribution is a special one. This goal is perhaps overlooked by some Arsenal fans because it was scored in a pretty run-of-the-mill FA Cup replay and footage of it is hard to come by. But it really does encapsulate what made Bergkamp such a magnificent player.
Up next×
A blood-and-thunder cup tie at Roker Park is no place for the faint-hearted but Bergkamp's serenity shone through the storm with an exquisite piece of skill to open the scoring a minute into the second half.
The move started with Nigel Winterburn's throw on the left. He exchanged passes with Patrick Vieira and found Paul Merson, who moved into the left channel and picked out Bergkamp 20 yards from goal.
For once the Dutch master lost control of the ball but he regained it with a classy double drag-back. Now facing the goal but faced with a defender, Bergkamp clipped a curling effort around his opponent, beyond the keeper Lionel Perez and into the top corner.
Peter Reid, in charge of Arsenal's opponents at the time, admitted afterwards: "I starting clapping myself, until I realised I was Sunderland's manager."

EconSouth (First Quarter 2001)
Expect Continued but More Moderate Growth in 2001
he year 2000 proved to be very interesting, though not necessarily for the reasons most of us might have expected at the end of 1999. While the Y2K transition was not the communications and financial meltdown that many had predicted, the 2000 presidential election proved to be the most remarkable in more than a century.
The year ahead
I believe the moderation in growth we are experiencing is a temporary period of adjustment toward a more sustainable long-term growth path.
For 2001, I think the economy's most likely path is one in which inventories and spending will continue to adjust in the near term but with a return to a more moderate rate of growth over the course of the year, aided by the Federal Reserve's easing of monetary policy. I think it's likely that unemployment will tick up slightly but remain quite low, and I expect inflation to remain relatively stable with relief in some of the pressures that had been building.
Supply and demand
In 2001, consumer spending, like the economy as a whole, will continue to moderate, but there is some good news: Unemployment remains relatively low, and wage growth remains healthy. These characteristics serve as a sort of psychological and financial foundation for consumer spending, and as long as they're in good shape, consumer spending can continue to increase.
On the supply side of the economy, I don't believe that productivity is likely to grow at the very high rates witnessed over the previous five years, but I do believe that the U.S. economy is capable of growing above the levels experienced during the 1970s and 1980s. Because businesses understand the importance of providing their employees with the technology needed to remain competitive in the marketplace, I believe that businesses should still be willing and able to make the capital investments they need to increase productivity in 2001.
Slower growth not the same as no growth
For those who might slip into this mindset, let me offer this reminder: slower gross domestic product growth is not the same thing as no growth. Businesses, consumers, investors and even policymakers should not allow inflated expectations to distort their thinking during 2001, which I believe will be a year in which the U.S. economy continues its record expansion.

By Richard Clarke
It seems that one of the people least excited by Cesc Fabregas' performance on Tuesday was the player himself.
Arsenal's Spanish midfielder scored one goal and made another as Arsène Wenger's team swept aside Juventus in the Champions League Quarter-Final first leg on a wonderful evening at Highbury.
Much was made of Fabregas' tussle with his former team-mate, Patrick Vieira, in midfield. The teenager was a clear winner on the night and the Frenchman's booking means they will not lock horns in the second leg next week. The 18-year-old remained modest when asked about his achievements after the game.
"I always try to do my best," said Fabregas. "Not just because I was playing against Patrick.
"You can always improve playing against these kinds of players. Not only Patrick but there was Emerson too. He is going to play at the World Cup for Brazil.
"For me, Patrick had a fantastic game and so did Juventus. The only difference is that we scored two goals and did not concede."
That is perhaps understating the case. However Fabregas was nearer the mark when he turned to the second leg. He knows the job is only half-done.
"This was a terrific night," said Fabregas. "If you are an Arsenal fan and you watch this kind of game you have to enjoy it. I did personally.
"But we have to respect the game and respect Juventus for who they are. If you go there and think you are in the Semi-Finals then you are wrong.
"Pavel Nedved is going to come back and I don't know who else. These teams have big players on the bench and in the squad. They will be ready to play the game again.
"That is why we have to be focused for 90 minutes but we have another game on Saturday [against Aston Villa] and we have to be focused for that one too.
"We scored twice this evening and it was very important not to concede a goal against a team like Juventus. Now we will see what happens in Turin."

Jackie Nava stops Brown in three
By Felipe Leon at ringside
Photos: Rafael Soto / Zanfer
A steady right hand and finally a barrage of punches gave Tijuana fan favorite Jackie "Aztec Princess" Nava (28-4-3, 11 KOs) the win and another defense of her WBA super bantamweight title over Lisa "Bad News" Brown (19-6-3, 6 KOs) on Saturday night at the LA Cetto Vineyard in the Valle de Guadalupe near Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico. Southpaw Brown pressured early but Nava remained calm as she countered beautifully over Brown's left hook. The end came once Nave caught Brown with one too many rights and followed up with a barrel ful of leather. Official time was 1:46 of the third round.
An accidental head butt suffered by Ruben "Canelito" Tamayo (20-3-1, 14KOs) in the opening seconds of the scheduled eight round super bantamweight bout versus Raul "Rayito" Hirales (18-1-2, 8KOs) forced the contest to be stopped. The result was a technical draw.
Despite dropping former champ Rodrigo Guerrero (17-4-1, 11KOs) in the first round, Mexicali, Mexico's Jonathan Lecona (15-12, 10KOs) didn't answer the bell for sixth round of a scheduled bantamweight ten. Guerrero of Mexico City kept the pressure up on the southpaw Lecona forcing him to quit.
Featherweight Angel Rodriguez (3-0, 2KOs) scored a unanimous decision over Jesus Badillo (6-1, 4KOs) to remain undefeated and hand Badillo his first loss. No official scores were announced.
Tall and lanky Venezuelan middleweight Jose Uzcategui (13-0, 10KOs) finished off yet another opponent in Jose Luis Vazquez (6-2, 4KOs) of Tijuana. A body shot at the 2:02 of the first round did the trick.
In a battle of featherweight first timers, Tijuana's Eduardo Galindo (1-0, 1KO) was a awarded a TKO win after scoring a barrage of unanswered punches on Miguel Angel Zapata (0-1). The end came at the 2:22 mark of the 1st round.
Flyweight Jonathan "Bomba" Gonzalez (10-0, 9KOs) made quick work of Saul "Bebe" Hernandez (3-4, 1KO), stopping him at the :26 mark of the second round. Gonzalez of Puerto Rico dropped Hernandez of Tijuana once in the first before knocking him out with a straight right.
Ensenada, MX's bantamweight Jonas Salvatierra (3-0)remained undefeated with a unanimous decision over Tijuana's Juan "Pitufo" Gomez (2-2, 1KO). The bout was a scheduled four rounder.
Local Miguel Angel Padro (1-1) earned his first pro win with a unanimous decision over first timer Carlos Ocampo (0-1), also of Ensenada, Mexico, in a four round lightweight contest.
Super lightweight Alonso Chavez (1-0) of Tijuana made his pro debut a good one with a split decision win over Jose Luis Cervantes (0-2) also of Tijuana in a four rounder.

Your shopping cart is empty
Becoming a registered charitable company & further requirements: it is a great testament to the generosity of the people of the UK that we give so much to charity, and that so many think seriously about their organisation becoming a charitable company. It is important, however, that charities are properly regulated. They exist on kind donations from the public and businesses, who have a right to expect that their money is being used properly, so it is vital that the charity should be properly set up and transparently managed. To be sure that your charity is on the correct footing, you should consider working with an experienced partner like Coddan Ltd.
Charity company formation involves some key decisions early on in the process. One of these is to decide on the charity's legal structure. In 2012, the government launched a new structure for charities called a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO). This was designed to eliminate the need for charities to be the subject of so-called "double regulation" reporting both to Companies House and to the Charity Commission.
The CIO offers other benefits of an incorporated entity, including its trustees being protected by limited liability. The Charity Commission itself has stated that this structure may not be suitable for every charity. Indeed, some advisors are recommending that charities continue to be set up as a charitable company limited by guarantee. Certainly, it is a new structure and Coddan Ltd will be happy to guide you through the pros and cons of all your alternatives.
Becoming a charity company can obviously be quite complex but your obligations do not end there. When you start your charitable company you will have to set out your aims, objectives and governance in your governing documents. You will also have to appoint two trustees. Your charity needs a minimum of two trustees, but more is preferable. It is ideal to have trustees with a professional background in the area they are responsible for, such as a businessperson in charge of marketing, and so on.
You will also have to set out your charitable purpose. This is the core reason for the existence of your charity and there are strict rules as to what constitutes as charitable. You will also have to report every year to the Charity Commission on how your charity company is benefiting the country. In all of these areas, having an experienced partner like Coddan Formations Agency will be of great assistance.

Connor looked up at me quizzically. The sunlight caught his coat and eyes brilliantly. I pointed the camera at him and pressed the shutter button. The hi-tech 21st-century technology heaved into action, shedding its sleepy bewilderment, gathering its digital thoughts and coming to the conclusion "a photo is desired". After an eon of, oh, a second, the shutter clicked - but Connor had turned away.
|Pets keep moving! One of many failed shots of Connor.
I got lots of photos of Connor's neck, but none of the perfectly framed, immaculately lit face that I saw through the viewfinder.
Years ago, in the pre-digital days of wind-on 35mm film and f-stop rings, I was a keen photographer. I got used to choosing the exact instant when I'd take the shot, confident that my chosen fast shutter speed would ensure a good picture.
Ordering prints would take up to two weeks back then. Yet somehow that wait was more bearable than the tiny delay in my digital camera's aperture speed is now. That one-second pause is a territory of teeth-grinding annoyance. But my dear old 35mm camera stopped working, so all my snapping now is with a $200 digital camera that's great in many ways but still gives me that moment of bewilderment before taking the photo.
So in talking about ways of getting good photos of your pets, the first thing I'd advise is to breathe deeply and be super-patient. You're going to miss some shots, but you have to keep clicking.
|More successful: good light, not too much room for movement.
Some more professional advice follows in this blog post, but here are a few more lessons I've learnt through my own snapping attempts as well as looking at hundreds of other people's pet photos, successful and not.
* Keep your camera handy so you can grab it easily. Take it with you on dog walks.
* Use a high resolution, so you'll later be able to crop in on the image without making it go fuzzy.
* Vary your photos from the standard human-to-pet point of view, you looking down at them. Get close.
Can you add any other rules of photographer's thumb?
I asked my cousin Tracey, who has a photography business in Canada, to give me some hints on taking things a step further than the kind of opportunistic snapping I've done till now. Here's what she said:
I find treats only encourage craziness so I try to avoid using treats to get animals to stay. If you use treats take this as my warning, your dog/cat might get really wound up and think its a big game. Instead I use praise and at the END of the pose I offer a little treat.
1. As for any photograph, light is the most important element. The most flattering light is soft natural light for your best friend, little kitty or even pet iguana. If you have a large window in your house set up your pet next to the large window, with his face sideways or slightly toward the window (not with their back to the window. Shoot your picture from beside or at a 45-degree angle from the window's edge.
2. Light in the eye. Coax your pet to look out the window (not usually a difficult task). When you see the catch light in the eye, take the photo. Catch lights in the eyes are what make all photos of living subjects, souls or windows to the soul. You will have a much more natural photo this way.
3. Turn OFF the on camera flash, unless of course you enjoy the demon glow eye look. Instead try to get as much light into the room as possible without using a flash. If you are using a speedlight, bounce it up or backwards.
4. Get down to their level. Lie on the ground, crouch, whatever. My dog Farley thinks that when you lie on the ground, or crouch, that means it's play snuggle and knock you over time. If I am photographing him I often have to get my partner to hold him on a leash in a sit-stay until he calms down.
5. Let your animal be, well, your animal. Farley has an almost obsessive love for all his stuffed animals. When we go on walks he has to take one with him; when he greets us at the door he immediately runs and grabs us one to show us. Use these quirky things as your "prop" in the image. Maybe Kitten is crazy about grass and catnip - you can use these items to show your animal's personality.
6. Use contrasting backgrounds, if you're photographing a black dog, a dark calico kitty or even a snake or lizard, set your studio to contrast to their fur or, uh, scales. Use a white-tiled floor or blanket (your bed) to contrast the dark. If your animal has light fur I suggest a darker background - just remember to keep the backgrounds simple, and decluttered. The main focus should be the pet.
7. Take the session outside to the park or a natural setting, get down low and throw the ball for fetch and have the camera clicking while your pup is retrieving. Go for a walk, practise some sit-stays and take some pictures.
Even if your pet isn't cooperating, keep a positive attitude. Posing for photographs is not a normal animal thing to accomplish. Always give your pet a big hug and thanks at the end of the session.

Sound advice AND neat photos! Excellent!
Your cousin has remarkably good taste in animals. :-)
I was trying to take a photo of 3 dogs together a couple of weeks ago. After a few attempts and my cousins holding onto the leads we got there! Kymi even had her ears forward, which is normally the thing that I have most trouble with when photographing her.
I have a few photo's of Kymi's nose - she seems to have a knack of moving just as the shutter goes and investigating the lense :-)
Getting to their level is the best bit of advice. The best photos of my darlings (child included) are when I have got down to their level to take it.
My advice would be to upgrade your camera to one that doesn't have such a delay. The cheaper the camera, the more delay they tend to have. Digital SLR's don't tend to have the delay. You press the button, it does stuff. Also, you get to look through the lens itself rather than at an LCD image in the "viewfinder" that is also slightly delayed from what the camera is seeing.
But isn't there an old adage of never working with children or animals? Someone has to though. :-)
i have a rather neurotic mini foxy and as soon as I get out the camera he starts going a bit bonkers in anticipation of any flash/light that may come from the camera and all I get photo wise is either crazy eyes or the back of him as he 'attacks' the light *sigh*
I have the most trouble in trying to get the definition & muscle tone to come through on a black dog & yet the chocolates are not too bad but tend to bleed out in some darker light levels. the tip about natural light & not using the camera flash is a good bit of advice. The delay on digital cameras is very bad & the digital SLR's are the best for animals due to the short delay. They are very expensive though & we are saving for a good one & a wide angle lense. Black & white photos can be fantastic too. When we go away in the camper truck the camera is always at the ready & you have to admit we have a great country & fantastic photos of the animals are easy to get at most of our scenic spots. I am so waiting to get up to the snow with my dogs for some great photos & some funny ones too.
I find it really hard to get good shots of my cat because she is black. Good light is really important, but not always easy. I keep trying though. The photos above are gorgeous.
So many of our pet photos are fails - like Connor, lots of them turning away the second the camera clicks. My dog was in a calendar when he was about 18mths, and I bribed him with treats to sit still and be good. Hard work! And the resulting photo had biscuit crumbs all over his snout, haha.
Excellent article. We to have the exact same problem with catching those great doggy moments on film. Half the time it is terrible light so you put the flash on and then his eyes shine with a bright white light which we don't know how to gt rid of. But will keep trying:)

Local Democrats Mentioned as Potential Statewide Candidates on a 'Wendy Ticket'
State Sen. Wendy Davis (D-Ft. Worth) has pushed back her announcement on whether she will run for governor for a month, but observers say that will give Davis more time to secure fundraising, and will give Texas Democrats more time to secure candidates to run on what they hope will be a strong list of statewide candidates in the 2014 election, 1200 WOAI news reports.
Davis had said that she would announce her political plans 'by Labor Day.' But now she says she will not make an announcement until potentially the end of September, saying her father has a chronic illness and she wants to concentrate on his care.
Allen Saxe, a political science professor at UT Arlington and one of the state's top political observers, says the delay won't hurt Davis and might help her.
"Its probably better for her to keep the suspense going for a while, not that this was planned or anything," Saxe told 1200 WOAI news. "Its not this summer as everybody knows, a lot of people are still gone, they're thinking summer, our attention is drawn to international affairs."
Davis says she will run either for governor or for re-election to her state senate seat in Ft. Worth.
While running for governor and losing to the formidable Greg Abbott would be a setback for Davis, some observers say now that she has become 'the face of the Democratic Party,' best known for her support of the unpopular subject of prohibiting late term abortion, she might not win re-election to her state senate seat, which would be far more disappointing.
Several local names have emerged as candidates for statewide office on the Democratic ticket. Most prominently mentioned are State Sen. Leticia Van de Putte for Lieutenant Governor, and State Rep. Mike Villarreal for State Comptroller.
Van de Putte is a business owner who has emerged as one of the Legislature's experts on the energy industry, and she has long been seen as a possible candidate for statewide office. Villarreal is a financial planner and manager who is a leader in the fight for more funding for education.
Several Republicans have announced their candidacy for Lieutenant Governor, where incumbent David Dewhurst is seen as weak following his defeat at the hands of Ted Cruz in last year's U.S. Senate race. Incumbent Republican State Comptroller Susan Combs is retiring.
No Democrat has won a statewide race in Texas since Bob Bullock was elected Lieutenant Governor in 1994.
But many Democrats have seen the surge of support for Davis which came following her filibuster of the 'fetal pain' abortion bill last month as an indication that the party will get the funding, and the public enthusiasm, to resume its role as a key player in Texas politics.
"She is young, she can make a good speech, she has a very good following of young people, of women," Saxe said.

Student Designers Explore How Lightweighting Will Drive Efficient Future Cars
Simplifying vehicle structures and new materials aim to improve energy usage during driving.
On the eve of the opening of the 2013 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, The College for Creative Studies opened a new exhibition of work from current Transportation Design students. Representing both undergraduate and graduate programs, the work shown from each was a mix of sponsored projects by automakers both domestic and foreign. While the individual projects ranged from generating new ideas for near term production to what race vehicles might look like in 2050, there was an overall goal to consider ways to make all of the concepts more lightweight.
Bob Boniface, GM's Director of Cadillac Exterior Design who spoke at the opening night event commented that lightweighting was an important consideration for automakers looking to meet both CAFE and company sustainability goals. The Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards established by the U.S. Department of Energy requires a minimum MPG average to be made across the range of vehicles an automaker produces.
The design projects presented by the students explored ideas relating to both vehicle structures and new material applications. Following is a sampling of sketches, renderings and models.

The warning came after convicted rapist Peter Chapman, 33 - who was also suspected of other attacks - met 17-year-old Ashleigh Hall online.
Yesterday, Chapman, who admitted kidnap, rape and murder, was jailed for life and told he would serve at least 35 years.
Ashleigh's mother, Andrea Hall, also warned of the dangers of social networking sites and questioned why Chapman was free to attack her daughter.
In a statement, Facebook said it was "deeply saddened" by Ashleigh's death.
The statement urged people not to meet anyone they have only had contact with online unless they are certain they know who they are, "as there are unscrupulous people in the world with malevolent agendas".
Speaking after the sentencing at Teesside Crown Court, Mrs Hall said she had been powerless to stop Ashleigh going out that fateful night.
"Them sort of people should be tagged and they should be kept an eye on all the time," she said.
"I blame them for letting them out. He shouldn't have been let out."
Mrs Hall, who was comforted by her family and friends, said she was powerless to stop Ashleigh going out.
"What could I have done?" she asked.
"She was 17. You don't stop your kids from going out. You tell them to be careful.
"He was a nice-looking boy. I couldn't have stopped it and I wouldn't have stopped it.
"The message is for people just to be careful. Please just be careful. Make sure you please do tell somebody if you are going to meet a person.
"That is the message, don't go on your own."
Her plea was echoed by Chief Superintendent Andy Reddick, who led the murder inquiry.
"The internet is a great thing but young people who go online can easily fall prey to the scheming, devious tricks of predatory paedophiles and perverts who, sadly, are all too willing to prey on the naive and vulnerable," he said.
"It is a jungle that is full of pitfalls and traps and that is why companies who set up and promote such sites should do everything in their power to protect those that use them.
"Parents too should play their part and ensure they know exactly what their children are up to when they are surfing the net.
"Ashleigh made a mistake and paid for it with her life.
"Her death and this murder trial should be a wake-up call to parents and internet companies around the world to ensure as far as they can that nothing happens to another innocent victim."
The Facebook statement read: "While it is not clear how these two met, what is clear is that Peter Chapman was a twisted, determined individual with an evil agenda who used every online and offline opportunity to meet people.
"This case serves as a painful reminder that all internet users must use extreme caution when contacted over the internet by people they do not know.
"We echo the advice of the police, who urge people not to meet anyone they have been contacted by online unless they know for certain who they are, as there are unscrupulous people in the world with malevolent agendas.
"Nothing is more important to Facebook than the safety of the people who use our site. On Facebook there are a variety of measures people can use to protect themselves from unwanted contact and we strongly encourage their use."
Chapman was jailed in 1996 for raping two prostitutes and was also suspected, though never charged, of carrying out other rapes and sex attacks against young women.
And last night Merseyside Police confirmed they waited nine months to put out a national alert after Chapman - who was still on parole - could not be contacted over a traffic offence.
Officers had visited his house in Liverpool in January last year but it took until September for the full alert to be issued.
A spokesman said he did not know why the force had failed to go national earlier.
During the trial, the court heard how Chapman created an alter- ego of 19-year-old Peter Cartwright on the Facebook and Tagged.com websites to groom the Darlington College childcare student.
Once he had made contact - less than a week before her death - he began talking to her using the MSN online messaging service and sending text messages to her mobile phone.
Prosecutor Graham Reeds QC told the court: "It is apparent from the very start that he was obsessed with sex and was trying to make arrangements to meet her."
Mr Reeds said Chapman needed a ruse to ensure Ashleigh got into his car on the night of October 25 last year.
"Having invented 19-year-old Peter to make contact with girls he now decided to invent Peter's dad in order to persuade Ashleigh that it was safe to get into his car," he said.
"The plan he devised was calculated and wicked, and it worked."
Mr Reeds said Chapman had spent the early part of that Sunday visiting the area where he was to eventually take her.
"Having organised the 'Pete's dad' cover story, having researched the location of the intended crime scene and having just travelled to the area to check it, the defendant had now sprung the trap," Mr Reeds said.
"All he had to do now was wait for her to fall into it."
After kidnapping Ashleigh, Chapman - who was living in the back of his car - drove her to an area off the A177 at Thorpe Larches, near Sedgefield, County Durham.
It was there that he forced her to give him oral sex, before he bound and gagged her and raped her.
"After removing her lower clothing she was gagged with duct tape wound around her face, bound by the forearms with tape and forced her into sexual intercourse," Mr Reeds said.
"At some stage the bindings around her arms were removed - most likely to allow her to pull up and fasten her lower clothing.
"But then after the rape her arms were bound up again and further tape was put over her face, suffocating her to death."
Chapman was arrested the following day for motoring offences. He then led police to where he had dumped Ashleigh's body, a nearby farmer's field.
Chapman later confessed to police that he had consensual sex with Ashleigh and she had accidentally suffocated.
Judge Peter Fox, the Recorder of Middlesbrough, jailed Chapman for life and said he would serve at least 35 years' imprisonment before being considered for parole.
"For it appears to me that you are, you were at the time, and have been for some considerable time, a very great danger to young women and, for what it is worth, I cannot foresee your release," he said.
"In my judgment, your killing was of such seriousness on its own, and in conjunction with other associated offences, that it falls clearly into the category of being particularly high.
"This was an evil scheme very carefully brought, and with considerable detail, to trap your victim."
Judge Fox also imposed concurrent 10-year sentences for rape and kidnap but imposed no separate penalty for the offence of failing to notify a change of address.

Denunciation and Disruption: The Vision That Drives Occupy Wall Street
Posted on Oct 25, 2011
It's 4:45 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 15, the day Occupy Wall Street went global. The march in Manhattan is twin pronged on 6th Avenue, several blocks long on the east and west sidewalks of the street. It flows as juggernautish and loud and flashing as a flood in a canyon. The police don't know what to do except keep it on the sidewalk, barricade it off the street with a line of scooters and hundreds of foot cops and dozens of cop vans directed by the dreaded White Shirts. These latter are the captains, the field commanders, feared because in the five weeks the occupiers have been at Zuccotti Park, clawing into the financial district with no intention of departure, the White Shirts have done the most cawing into bullhorns, have seemed the most pissed off about the occupation, and have shown the most willingness to bust heads and punch kids and break out the mace and the pepper spray when faced with the threat of young women.
Square, Story page, 2nd paragraph, mobile
"Keep tawkin," says a detective.
"Randy Credico," says the man in the linen suit, turning to me. "Activist, political comedian. Ran against Chuck Schumer in 2010." A little guy, spry, a cynic who likes to dress up in public as Diogenes, a New Yorker with one of those sinewy New York accents. We shake hands. Then the drums are upon us, the banners—"Revolt" and "Generation Revolution" and "Wall Street: The Enemy of Humanity"—and the shouting: "We! Are! The 99 percent!"
The goal today is the convergence at Times Square, where it's said 20,000 people are already waiting.
Square, Site wide, Desktop

That's a good start, the act of shaming and ridicule. How the toppling of the parasites is functionally to be accomplished, the machinations needed to smash their power and put them on a rocket ship to an airless planet, is as yet unknown. Nor does anyone here much care that it's unknown. What matters on a day like this is morale, and to find morale means to gather en masse to make a mess of the normal state of affairs—the politics of disruption for its own sake. The Occupy Wall Street movement has collaborators in dozens of cities—Occupy Chicago and Occupy Los Angeles and Occupy Seattle—but it is the occupation in New York, the most regressive city in the nation, to which Occupiers nationwide look for inspiration. The enemy is nested in New York, and it is here the battle is to be joined.
On the west side of 6th Avenue, a dashingly handsome black man in a white do-rag and corduroy jacket leads the flood. I find out later his name is Hero Vincent, a New Yorker, just 21 but seeming much older, a veteran at disruption. He gestures to his counterpart on the east sidewalk in an array of cryptic hand signals. Together they stop the march—who knows why, perhaps for the hell of it, perhaps to show they can. The police are hysterical in their bullhorns: "Keep moving! Keep moving!" No one moves. Vincent savors the stoppage, smiles gigantically—a flashing toothy calming smile you can see a hundred feet away—and raises his fist, which stretches out pointing north. The flood is back on.
Now 28th Street, 29th, 34th, Herald Square and Macy's—the parting of the shoppers. They gawk, they wonder, some of them cry out in support, some are gripping grab bags of new-bought junk thinking the mob will rob them. The occupiers answer: "Join us, brothers and sisters! Join us! YOU. ARE. THE 99 PERCENT!"
But they don't join.
A great moaning suddenly fills the air—Hero Vincent has been snatched by the White Shirts. The occupiers turn as one and chant: "Let him go! Let him go!"
In a flash, Credico has broken through the scooter barricade, is across the street, dashing among the White Shirts, his face grotesquely twisted, the cigar gripped tight, as if it would scatter all authority, the officers surrounding him, jabbing and pushing at him though he's done nothing but speak his mind and wave the cigar. He's demanding the reason for Vincent's arrest. (I find Vincent later that night, at Zuccotti Park, and he tells me he was arrested for "obstructing traffic.")

I've been moderated again.
I feel left out.
I can't remember how long it has been since I commented on TD until recently. I do remember having been ignored a few years ago as it seems I am now. If my comments don't appear today 11/06/11 this will be my last.
I did enjoy it and felt somewhat part of the discussion.
If you see my comment Shenonymos I'll say thanks for responding to my suggestion to read the Book "The Web of Debt" by Ellen Brown. There is no question in my mind that this book exposes the problems and has at least the best solution to our economy and even the world's economy.
Of course that don't solve the problem of over population, the environment and knowing what freedoms must be curbed in order to survive global warming. A good world economy would cause another explosion of population especially if all economies were fixed. The race to be the richest would continue. Dictators can't solve these kinds of problems but only make them worse. Profit oriented corporations can't either. Only education can, which should be completely free for all 7 billion people.
There are laws that are very irrational that might help save us if fixed. An example would be legalizing industrial hemp which is Ralph Nadar's campaign now. Instead of ruining the rain forest hemp harvests could take the place of cutting trees and it is an easy crop to grow. Our entire legal system needs a massive simplification geared for the Main Street rather than Wall Street.
There isn't time to waste according to James Hanson, the climate expert.

Shenonymos about our small disagreement:
I figured we have exhausted most readers of these comments. Only a few are left and they seem to have a bone to pick with each other. None of my business doncha see. But there are loose ends between you and me.
This thing about emotion of which you speak: I feel you are referring to me when I came to the defense of Julian Assange a bit ago after hearing of his extradition.
Did you know he had not been charged with a crime or the breaking of any law? And yet his extradition was approved anyway.
Did you know the request was for questioning only? That is a first. He's a reporter for goodness sakes. Why couldn't he be questioned in a public forum?
Rape is what we are talking about in this case not Wikileaks. If rape is what your obvious 'emotional' feelings are towards Julian Assange then you are accountable for the same 'emotional conclusions' that you accuse me of. None of the women involved with him cried rape. They only wanted to be tested for the dreaded aids virus because the 'consensual' sex was unprotected. It was a particular prosecuting attorney in Sweden, where rape laws are much different than here who had an agenda, political I suspect, that wanted charges of rape filed. The state, originally, dropped all charges. But, because of the persuasive arm twisting [by the USA], Sweden continued the extradition request. I understand that Carl Rove used his influence in Sweden on this issue.
The fear, expressed by JA's attorneys was that his extradition to Sweden is simply going to be to a holding cell. He'll be held there only to await further extradited to the USA. I'm sure you know all about our treatment of foreign prisoners suspected of terrorism who are unfortunate enough to find themselves in that situation here. Do you really think he will be treated fairly? There are a lot of details of which, I assume, you are aware of about this since you are adamant that JA, who can't defend himself here, is a guilty criminal not worth our consideration or even attention.
I am concerned about JA. You should be. There are issues here about news reporting that should concern you if a journalist is held responsible for what his sources actions are. And you know what will happen to whistle blowers if that source is held responsible for blowing the whistle on criminal behavior - Example: Bradley Manning -.
If he is extradited to the US it simply means the criminal section of the .01%er won and our rights have been suppressed even further.
Do you want to know the truths in future on important stories that relate to you and your freedom or are you satisfied with what the State wants you to hear, knowing the state is owned by the .01%ers?
I think you know what will happen to reporting if JA is made an example of. If not you should. A precedence will be set. Top stories will no longer relate to anything that will remotely accuse our self appointed dictating superiors of anything because of Journalistic dread. We will become a nation of "Stepford Wives" even more than we already are.
You know, I'm sure, the history of the Pentagon Papers which was considered espionage before it became public. Our free speech and journalism is obviously at stake here. The Fourth Estate is at stake.

I have just a couple of words for JA. (1)peace & (2)activist. He is acting up for peace in the face of our out of control military complex. That does take a bit of courage.
I think you are also for peace.

"In the end, why are any books any better than the bible unless the 'scholars' who are doing the synthesis are trustworthy?
So I ask, what is new about OWS? Why should I think they won't fall into the same bureaucracies and classes we have? What is new in their core principles, and how will they stick to it?"
There are no guarantees.
But, democracy is the only hope we have. To make democracy difficult it ebbs and flows. There is a constant struggle by the aristocratic heirs to maintain what they consider their God given domain. That is why Scholars can never be trusted. Most of them are lured by a different kind of dignity than what you spoke of earlier when you cried "keep of the grass". The .01%ers, generally speaking, are self serving bigots for the most part, to put it bluntly(my opinion) who feel they are the only capable managers of life on Earth and do so by purchasing Scholars.
I assume you are a scholar from the obvious answers in your questions. There is much honor in your pursuit of the truth and contributions to the cause if you use your talents for the causes of democracy.
I think many answers about trust worthiness of books lies in this amazing internet system that connects us all. Without it this movement, which is democracy in action, would not have been possible. The internet must always be free. Not only are we instantaneously connected to the far reaches of the remotest areas on this planet but each entry is history in the making. That is what Julian Assange was offering through Wikileaks. It was democracy demanding truth and accountability and that is your answer to trustworthiness.True data can be erased but there are thousands of mirror sites backing up everything now.
Whether it will be better in the future - I don't know. But, shinning a light on war profiteers, men with personal power agendas or embarrassing blunders by governments waging unjust wars, business raping small defenseless countries for their limited resources through The bank of International settlement, world bank & IMF with bankster schemes starving third world citizens and here through austerity measures while bailouts continue for the super rich banks etc…
This movement will probably stop moving in the near future. The internet can be shut down by dictates of the powers that be. Those powers are obviously out of control with a mountain of money. But, the memory of what woke the sleeping democratic giant will last for a while at least. The giant is awake, walking through the streets of cities and towns everywhere and learning:?)
I'm sure the Banksters are scheming a take over as we speak.
It's a never ending struggle.

I'd be the first to admit I need more ejdukacion":?]
History is written by the victors of war (that's the ape who caries the biggest stick - as I'm sure you're aware Shenonymous) It's also written by the most enduring written word financed by the person or persons(corporation &/or old money) with the largest piles of gold. It's called the golden rule - and that is, "Who so ever has the most gold makes the rules."
JA was a hacker in his youth. A hacker is a software programmer and also mischievous prankster - NOT necessarily a malicious one. He got caught with his cyber hands prowling around in top secret Los Alamos libraries in New Mexico when he was a youngster living in Australia in the early 90's. He got punished with a relative slap on the wrist and several years of probation. Because the punishment was so light one of his closest cyber friends or allies at that time, a radical now still in prison for similar hacks, thinks Julian Assange is a CIA operative. It has been written that the Rothschild money helped him then and in the beginning of his social ISP venture in Australia and his ventures in Wikileaks. I only read about some of this stuff on the internet, which is thought to be unsubstantiated. But I've wondered. Since the release of "Collateral Murder" Julian Assange has had trouble mount exponentially. He has taken on the most powerful people in the world and governments in the world. I never thought of him as a God. But I sure think he has balls like one. He has more courage than any blow hard backed by our military complex or politically connected reporter afraid to mention anything that might jeopardize their career. I've heard their voices. They have profited from his operation - some calling, in public, for his assassination. He may not be a God but he is my hero. I do know the difference.
It is confusing for me. With 7 billion people on this planet about what is best. Maybe we should abide by the proven golden rule instead of abiding by our precious democracy. However, I don't believe that .01% who have the gold care much about the 7 billion. Creative marketing seems to be their answer.
I'm happy we agree on the most important thing, Shenonymos. That is that people recognize that there is a major disconnect between them and that .01 percent elite. And they are doing something about it - finally.
By terry p, November 2, 2011 at 7:59 am Link to this comment
Julian Assange lost his battle. He will be extradited to Sweden. This means he will also most assuredly be extradited to a prison to wait, no telling how long in a extremely small cell and tortured while waiting to be tried for espionage at the convenience of Obama and the Attorney General of the USA.

"How is the grass in the park? Trampled to mud long ago I assume? And that overall appearance of strung together blue tarps? Impractical and an eyesore. OK, fine, it is what it is at this moment in time. OWS leaders: re-assess continuously. What does it mean to live sustainably and with quiet dignity? In a manner that will command the respect of your enemies?"
Dignity is sacrificed in struggles, sometimes. Survival isn't pretty and these true patriots need understanding. We have to get our hands dirty at times. Grass can be replaced - it's relatively cheap - so can dignity if we win a few battles.
Your absolutely right. It all takes organization. Just as the participants bought cleaning equipment and cleaned the park while back, which made the reason to evict pointless, they can also replace the grass and clean up again after this early winter storm invasion. It shows resolve, pride and commitment.

Sorry for the delay. I had car trouble. A tow truck involved. I've obviously been out and about!—- I'm tired:(
Hopefully you're still paying attention to this set of comments if for no other reason but for me to tell you I agree with you completely. Couldn't have explained it much better myself, as though that would've been expected:)
I don't have time to comment often. But @ times I'm compelled to add my unqualified convictions. This movement has inspired me to do just that. When I do respond to comments I usually go by tp or terry p, which is the first part of my real name. Can't go completely naked dontcha know:?)I just created Synonymos recently on OWS and only commented once when I signed up.
Although, I have seen your user name before I wasn't thinking of it when I created mine. I was actually thinking of Anonymous used by Julian Assange. He, in my opinion, is responsible and the hero of the movement even though it has been in all our hearts for eons. He simply told the truths of whistle blowers.
I'm looking forward to your review of "The Web Of Debt".

Plans are set to open a new Irish pub in Calgary that appears to offer a little more than traditional Celtic fare, but not everyone's so eager to stop by.
Chad Howse, a franchisee and managing partner with Tilted Kilt has already opened a location in Edmonton and is moving to add a similar venue along Calgary's busy 17th Avenue entertainment stretch just in time for Stampede.
But the outfits worn by Tilted Kilt servers were recently used as the centrepiece of a Maclean's piece on "breastaurants" and are also raising some concerns among woman's rights advocates. Each features a tied-off white shirt that leaves the server's midriff exposed as well as a kilt that is shorter than the traditional variety.
"No shoes, no shirts, no service — but a woman's bare stomach is OK?" questioned Jane Drover, a woman's literature professor at Mount Royal University. "Woman are now more vulnerable than ever to the whims of an employer; it's part of a larger erosion."
Howse conceded the chain's outfits are revealing, but said the difference is each of his servers has a personality and will actually sit down and talk with clients as they dine.
"What we are doing is no different than anyone else," he added.
"Everywhere you look this day and age, there's a beautiful woman selling something for a company."
- Calgary's Tilted Kilt will cover about 6,000 square feet and replace Bob the Fish Tavern along 17th Avenue.
- Edmonton's Tilted Kilt, which opened in December, was the first of its kind in Canada but there are already more than 60 locations in the U.S.
- The organization also eyes on opening six locations in the Toronto area by the end of 2013.

Cheap diesel deals big setback to natural gas truck sales
By Nichola Groom
Nov 5 (Reuters) - Sales of trucks powered by natural gas are sputtering and growth will be far weaker this year than last as tumbling diesel prices prevent drivers from switching over to the cleaner-burning fuel even though it is cheaper than it has been in years.
Sales of medium and heavy duty natural gas trucks are expected to rise less than 1 percent this year after climbing nearly 27 percent in 2014, Power Systems Research, a St. Paul, Minnesota firm that studies engines, told Reuters. It cut that projection from about 4 percent earlier this year.
Lured by lower fuel prices and the desire to please increasingly emissions-conscious customers, the trucking industry in recent years has been adopting natural gas as a fuel source despite far higher costs for the trucks.
But now oil's more than 50 percent drop in the last 16 months is setting back the natural gas truck market by several years.
"Adoption rates of natural gas engines will ultimately depend on the price of diesel fuel," said Jim Downey, a vice president at Power Systems Research, which now thinks it will take until at least 2020 for 4 or 5 percent of U.S. trucks to run on natural gas, not 2016 or 2017 as previously projected.
A few thousand natural gas vehicles are sold each year for long haul trucking in the United States, compared with some 3.4 million class 8 trucks - the heaviest duty truck classification - on the roads.
Though benchmark U.S. natural gas has tumbled by more than 20 percent since late September to around $2 per million Btu on some days, the cost savings of using natural gas versus diesel is narrower than it was a year ago.
That benefit has dwindled to about 15 cents a gallon, down from 50 cents a gallon a year ago, said Raymond James analyst Pavel Molchanov. Continued...

I must kindly disagree with the statement that the "CLP-670ND is aimed at the medium work-group of maybe 5-10 office workers." If Samsung is stating this, they are misleading the customer. In my opinion based on the maximum toner and paper capacity this unit is more in line with a 3 to 5 person office and not much more.
In order to be in an office of 5 to 10 people the unit should have 5k to 8k page color toners and 7k to 8k page black. For paper capacity it would need a third 250 sheet tray or one 500 sheet tray that could be added to the 250sheet main tray.
A few other notes; HP used this stackable system for a few years and they had an issue with the unit using color even when printing in black. Do you know if this unit has the same issue?
I for one do not like the exposed transfer belt. I am worried about something falling on the belt and damaging it.
It is also more susceptible dust and dirt so over time quality output could become an issue long before the belt is slated to be changed.
What are your recommendations then? I'm in the market for a new colur laser printer (UK).
Brother CDW 4070 has been poor from the off. Now giving up.
Previos Epson C1100 was great but we opted to change rather than start replacing expensive components - probably a mistake in hindsight.
A Kycorcera-Mita review caught my eye a while back.
5 people going up to 10 soon. Would consier a Multi-function machine to save deskspace used by scanner. Oh, must be network capable, but that's a given.
If you are planning to add 5 more people I would recommend the Konica Minolta Magicolor5670EN or the Kyocera FS-C5300
The Konica Minolta has the edge in price and maybe in quality output depending on what you are printing.
The Kyocera has the edge in cost per page, simpler setup and toner replacement, and it comes with duplexing standard, which cost extra on the Konica Minolta.

St. Patty's Here We Come!!
My late mother's maiden name was Donovan, which is Irish (duh!). So growing up, St.Patty's Day was right up there with the other major holidays! She would make a special dinner where everything was either naturally green or dyed green except for the corned beef in the Ruben. Our house was adorned with shamrocks and old Irish blessings, while mom would make us wear green on the 17th along with an Irish pin or two as we listened to the Irish tenors in the background.
So this year is my son's first st. patty's day and I want him to know how big of a holiday it was to his grandma! I have been thinking of what a 6 month old can wear to celebrate the big day! I have shopped around and it seems that most of the stores have cute stuff for girls (don't get me started) or they have skipped to Easter. Thus I have decided to create my own outfit! My sewing machine is currently out of order, so I decided I would make a shamrock and hand sew it onto a onesie. I am not an artist by any stretch, so I googled "shamrock Stencil" and went though them until I found the one I wanted!! See below:
Then I took the onesie,
and embroidery thread and got started!
Here is what I came up with!! Mason was a gracious model for his mommy!!
Ok, you get the idea!!! Well, maybe one more for good measure :)

The Health Benefits of Volunteering
JOPLIN, MO-- Whether it's helping at a hospital, reading to the blind, or stocking a food pantry - there are countless ways to volunteer. And when you decide to help others, it can also benefit your own mental and physical health.
"It's low stress, it's a break from my weekly routine and I love coming here." Freeman volunteer Anne Hodges isn't paid to work the hospital gift shop ... but that's not why she's here. "I love all the ladies I work with and it's nice to give back to the community too."
In fact, more than 300 volunteers donate their time in the Freeman system. Volunteer Program Supervisor Linda McIntosh says it's a big benefit for Freeman, saving about half a million dollars a year, but it also helps the volunteers themselves. "When you volunteer, it releases stress levels, it lowers your heart rate and it decreases depression."
And McIntosh adds there are also other intangible benefits. "When a person comes to volunteer, it also increases their self esteem and happiness level. Because they're out with other people. We have volunteers that make great, great friendships."
You can learn more about the Freeman volunteer program by calling the hospital and asking for Volunteer Services.
