Re: Re: hyperlink to pdf files
Thank you Roland, with your clues I found my finger trouble, and some
differences from your example.
Here is my working hyperlink under Mac OS X that solves my requirement
perfectly - launching Adobe Acrobat or Apple Preview on a pdf file
directly from the help browser.
Cell[TextData[ButtonBox["Examples Manual",
StringJoin[ "file://",
ToFileName[ {$AddOnsDirectory, "Applications", "MyPackage",
"Documentation", "English",
"References"}, "examples.pdf"]]], None},
ButtonStyle->"Hyperlink"]], "Input"]
Under OS X only 2 slashes are used after "file://" and in the
ToFileName, the curly brackets must include only the directory list and
not the file name. Under OS X there is no environment variable
"userprofile" but I don't need it anyway.
With OS X working I will now turn to Windows and see if the same rules
apply - and if platform independence is really possible without yucky
If [$OperatingSystem==, ] structures all over the place.

The simple answer is, in most cases, yes.
Many leases grant tenants the right to review the books and records of the landlord to ensure that the charges billed are correct. These clauses often state that the tenant has, upon reasonable notice, the right to visit the landlord's offices and review the applicable accounting records. In addition, every tenant has a general contract right to ensure that the bills received are correct.

"Grease" to make LIVE TV debut
FOX is following in the footsteps of NBC who aired the live musical version of Sound of Music last December.
Cult musical and movie Grease is set to hit the small screen in a live three-hour production sometime in 2015. We're not sure if it will more closely resemble the stage or movie adaptation, but either way it's going to be a MUST SEE event!
John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John headlined the movie in 1978, so it's been a while since the classic got a fresh look.
Shana C. Waterman, senior VP of event series for Fox commented, "From Broadway to film, and across generations, Grease is one of the most beloved musical stories ever told – and we can't wait to bring it to our air in a spectacular live event." (Source)
NBC's Sound of Music garnered 22 million viewers and we predict Grease will have an even bigger audience.

HP OfficeJet 250 Mobile Printer
The HP OfficeJet 250 Mobile Printer is a great device that fits perfectly into my fast paced and mobile lifestyle. My first impression of the printer itself was how incredibly compact and sleek the device was.
HP OfficeJet 250 Mobile Printer
Wireless printing from my iPhone was also a handy feature, the whole experience was quick and seamless with no setup requirements - accessed through the default iOS printing menu options.
HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
A smarter way to print for busy small business owners, combining speedy printing with scanning and copying, making it easier to produce high quality documents and images at a touch of a button.
HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
I've had a multifunction printer in the office going on 10 years now. It was a neat bit of kit back in the day -- print, copy, scan, fax -- when printing over WiFi felt a bit like magic. It's seen better days though and an upgrade's well overdue. This HP OfficeJet Pro 8730 looks like it ticks all the same boxes: print, copy, scan, and fax. (Really? Does anyone fax anything any more? I guess it's good to know the facility's there, just in case.) Printing over WiFi is more-or- less standard these days.
HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
As a freelance writer who is always on the go, I like my technology to be both efficient and effective so I can do my job well. The HP OfficeJet Pro 8730 Inkjet Printer ticks all the boxes in terms of form factor, performance and user interface.
Windows 10 for Business / Dell XPS 13
I'd happily recommend this touchscreen laptop and Windows 10 as a great way to get serious work done at a desk or on the road.

View files countersuit against Sage Electrochromics
February 18, 2013
Officials from electrochromic glass manufacturer View Inc. responded this week to a complaint filed against the company by Sage Electrochromics Inc., according to a Feb. 14 View release. View answered the complaint by asserting that Sage's patents are invalid and are not infringed by View. According to the release, View intends to defend its rights in the litigation and does not believe it is liable to Sage for infringement of any valid claim of any patent.
Additionally, View filed a counterclaim alleging that Sage infringes View's U.S. Patent No. 8,243,357, entitled "Fabrication of Low Defectivity Electrochromic Devices." View seeks damages and injunctive relief for the infringement of its patent.
View has retained outside counsel at Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale & Dorr LLP to represent the company in the case, according to the release.

Road trip preparedness
K so i will be taking my first long distance (at least for me) road trip. Orlando FL to Atlanta GA... 6 to 7 hours of drive time one way...
From those of your high milers out there what suggestions can you give me and others like me in this situation.
Air in tires
Fresh oil
What grade of gas if needed different
Any suggested additives to help with MPG
Average speed for good traveling
Re: Road trip preparedness
Drive the way you would on a two hour trip. If you get tired or feel you are not concentrating on your driving, stop for a cup of coffee. You can bring your own coffee, or other beverage, but stop and get out of the vehicle.
As far as the Jeep, you don't need to do anything special. Same gas, same air in tires, etc.
As for speed, don't be the guy out in front and don't hold up traffic.
Enjoy yourself.
Re: Road trip preparedness
If you're not in a rush, stop often. If you have another driver, switch every 2 hours or so. Enjoy :)
Re: Road trip preparedness
Just did 5 hours non stop from MA to ME this past Thursday...and another non stop 5 hours back on Sunday. Didn't check anything, didn't prepare anything.
How fast you drive is your decision, but 24+ MPG occurs around 65MPH. Get up around 75MPH, and you'll drop to about 22-21MPG, steeply dropping off above 75MPH.
A 6-7 hour road trip in any modern vehicle is nothing you should ever need to prepare for...unless you're hungry...bring snacks.
Re: Road trip preparedness
I did 37 hours nonstop from Texas to Maine. By nonstop I mean, food and bathroom breaks only basically, "and a tiny sight seeing trip at Niagra" and then a 1.5 hour stop for resting as I switched to my wife, who drove for 2 hours before we switched back, but since we were going through New York, I didn't sleep, I helped navigate.
I don't recommend THAT, but I did carry extra oil, extra Anti-Freeze, Extra Washer Fluid, A small set of mechanics tools, including a crescent wrench, and duct-tape, etc..... I also did a complete tune up of the vehicle prior to leaving which included, Royal Purple HPS Street oil, Royal Purple Transmission fluid and filter, new plugs, and I had brand new tires put on from discount with a nationwide warranty If had a blow out. All in all I spent about $2500 on my WJ, not including fuel costs for the Journey that took me all the way to Maine, and all the way back again without a single hiccup or issue. Probably a little excessive, sure, but we had no issues and didn't break down on an over 4,000 mile trip and the few hundred miles we put on the Jeep while on vacation in Maine....
Re: Road trip preparedness
37 hours is a real trip. 5 or 6 hours is just a drive down the road. Might have to stop once for a head call but that's about it. If you're concerned about MPGs I would recommend 65 miles per hour.
Re: Road trip preparedness
You should try and beat the new Cannonball run record next!: 2,813 miles in 28:50 with an average speed of 98MPH!
Meet The Guy Who Drove Across The U.S. In A Record 28 Hours 50 Minutes
Road trip preparedness
Baalic, I drive from Chicago to St. George Utah and back, I don't fly anymore in my old age. All of the guys have provided you with great advice so there is not much to add. Just when you feel you're getting tired pull over at a rest area and get a few hours sleep; that's what I've been doing for years and maybe get out and stretch now and then. Keep a little water handy to drink now and then. But the two most important things are:
1. Take your time it's not a race.
2. Be careful.
Have a safe trip.
Oh and my 2006 5.7 has never failed me and has only seen the dealer for oil!
Re: Road trip preparedness
We basically stopped in Niagara falls, coming home, Fenway Park for a Red Sox game, *GO SOX GO*, Washington DC, The Smoky Mountains, and Little Rock Arkansas for 4th of July Fireworks..... I still basically didn't truly stop more then say 2-4 hours on the way back, but made a lot more stops, including the stop in Oklahoma City where I bought my WK2 and left my poor dependable WJ.
And Cheers!
Re: Road trip preparedness
Other than packing some food & beverages or some winter-specific gear, we don't do anything extra for a road trip.
Our longest trek in one day is 840 miles from Minneapolis to Billings with just a few stops for diesel and 2 stops for food. I drove most of that and had my wife drive for a few hours while I took a nap.
Re: Road trip preparedness
Check the oil, check the air in the tires...and thats it. You'll be on well travelled highways is my guess, nothing to worry about.
Enjoy the trip, the Jeep is a great road trip car. Aside from the Lexus LS, its the best highway vehicle I've ever owned.
Re: Road trip preparedness
tires are fully inflated at all times, not just before a semi-long trip.
Some people add 2-3 pounds COLD pressure for freeway driving, sorta
depends on whether you run them high all the time or not.
Fresh oil? Why? Not unless overdue. Just make sure is good multigrade
rated for your engine.
Gas? Whatever you are using now, or better, what the owners manual recommends. No need to go premium, although if you go on the under side of a regular/midgrade, you might want to consider midgrade. E85 has less energy per gallon, but prices would dictate whether to use or not--if you have a flex fuel engine.
Additives to help with MPG. There really aren't any. There are a lot of claims, but they only offer anecdotal evidence if anything. Best thing
for MPG is cruise control if you don't have a steady right foot.
Average speed: fast enough to keep you from being tailgated, slow enough to avoid tickets. Watch out near Atlanta, the local drivers seem to all be NASCAR dropouts.

Best Cosmetic Doctor for Antiaging
Dr. Barankin has been my dermatologist for about 4 years now. He has helped me with my adult acne tremendously, and I also see him for my cosmetic treatments, always Botox, and sometimes juvederm. I moved and although he is far, I now fly across the country to see him and he is well worth it, he is truly one of the best cosmetic dermatologists in North America and I know a few doctors that...

For good results, I just followed Dr. Barankin's advice about not rubbing the area or laying down for 4hrs and avoiding things that cause bruising. There were no cons to the Botox. The pros were that the treatment was quick, hurt less... READ COMMENT

Jorge F. Chavez
Jorge F. Chavez (born November 25, 1961 in Callao, Peru) is a jockey in American Thoroughbred horse racing.
Chavez began his career in horse racing in 1982 in his native Peru and by 1987 was his country's leading rider. In April 1988 he emigrated to the United States where he raced with a great deal of success at Florida race tracks. Moving to New York a few years later, Chavez was the leading rider on the NYRA circuit from 1994 to 1999. During this time he rose to national prominence. He won two of the 1999 Breeders' Cup races, taking both the Distaff and the Sprint. During the year Chavez also won the Cigar Mile Handicap [for the second time in his career]. As a result of his stellar year, Chavez won the 1999 Eclipse Award for Outstanding Jockey. A fan favorite on the New York circuit where he rode for many years, Chavez is affectionately referred to by the fans as "Chop Chop" due to his distinctive riding style. His riding style, specifically how he uses the "whip, appears to be somewhat aggressive. However, this is more a byproduct of Chavez having short arms, due to his height [reportedly 4' 10], as opposed to him being overly aggressive.[citation needed]
In 2000, he was voted the Mike Venezia Memorial Award winner for "extraordinary sportsmanship and citizenship".
In 2001, Chavez rode Monarchos to victory in the Florida Derby and then in America's most prestigious race, the Kentucky Derby. The following year he won the Woodward Stakes, however, his career started to slow after suffering a broken back in a spill in the 2003 running of the Florida Derby.
As of mid-summer 2006, Chavez had been riding on the competitive Southern California racing circuit which includes Hollywood Park, Santa Anita Park and Del Mar Racetrack. In 2007, Chavez returned to New York to compete at Saratoga Race Course for the summer meet. After the Saratoga meet, Chavez returned to Belmont to ride. He has since been riding in both NY and FL.

I need help training a German shepherd.With running constant circles...etc
My female German Shepherd,Zoey,is constantly running circles in our yard. She is an inside and outside dog. I try to walk her and she pulls and pulls to the point she is gonna hurt someone. I tried a gentle leader and a choke chain. I finally got some results with a pinch chain. But know she's not focused on me during her training. She is focus on everything else. I have had a shepherd before but none like this. I try to put basic training in all my rescues. I have 13 dogs of many breeds. But she's the biggest issue I got. Please help me. And little help will do.

- Cast your vote for which answer you think is best!
What kind of training have you been doing with her? Is she motivated by food or toys? Have you ever tried training her not to pull with positive reinforcement?
In this case, the first step would be learning how to get her attention. Find something she's interested in - some chewy, smelly treats should work great. Here are some good links for you:
Once she knows how to focus on you, it should be easier to teach her to heel. Click (or use a marker word) and reward whenever she walks beside you. If she pulls, plant your feet and don't move until she stops. This will help her learn that pulling doesn't work.
It may be helpful for both of you to sign up for a basic obedience class.
Bottom line, this sounds like a dog that needs more exercise and mental stimulation than you're giving her - GSDs are working dogs and it sounds like she needs a job.

how old?
Shepherds are social but they tend to need one person. Sounds like she is not adapted to you yet.
You'll have to post in our shepherd forum or give more details. Runs in circles? how? This breed is athletic and they require more then fence exercise.
No gentle leader or chokes. Herding dogs like to be out front. You should try stopping each time she pulls, she'll get the just of it, when pulling gets her no where! lol. 13 dogs, I assume you work her slowly one on one? that's what it takes, but you have to be bonded with most gsd's to get results you speak of. She sounds high energy so try working her in a fast pace. Use high rewards, hotdogs, chicken, beef, steak ect.
If you were closer, I could help you. Some are a handful but effective communication goes a long ways. You might want to visit some gsd clubs that have german dogs like www.gsdca.com www.germanshepherddog.com, I don't know if you are getting lots of gsd's or this is the only one
Dieta answered on 1/17/11. Helpful? / 1
GSDs are a high-energy working dog. I suggest trying different activities to fing something she like to do - obedience, agility, chasing frisbees, herding sheep.
My GSD herds sheep. Days we are not at the trainer she gets roadwork trotting beside my bicycle. We also do agility. She knows what time exercise occurs and is less intense the rest of the time.
My sheepherding trainer believes that many behavior problems are a result of frustrated instinctive drives. He considers this to be the reason so many people have trouble with Border Collies (the breed he has). You really need to get to know this dog and discover what she needs to be doing.

Analysis: In pixel wars, LCD has staying power, refuses to die
By Miyoung Kim
SEOUL (Reuters) - Liquid-crystal display (LCD) screens were expected to slowly fade and die, giving way to lighter, thinner and tougher organic light-emitting diode (OLED) panels in everything from smartphones to televisions.
But LCD is refusing to go quietly as its picture quality keeps getting better. At the same time, the major backers of credit card-thin OLED panels - led by Samsung Electronics Co and LG Electronics Inc - are struggling to make the technology cheap enough to mass produce. The two South Korean firms this year showcased 55-inch OLED TVs, but priced at around $10,000 - 10 times that of an LCD equivalent - they have yet to reach store shelves.
OLED displays, used on Samsung's Galaxy S and Note smartphones, have been touted as the future display model to replace LCDs across the consumer electronics spectrum - from TVs to computers, laptops, tablets and smartphones. OLED is more energy efficient and offers higher contrast images than LCD, and is so thin that future mobile devices will be unbreakable, and will be able to be folded or rolled up like a newspaper.
But OLED panel makers such as Samsung Display and LG Display have yet to address major manufacturing challenges to lower costs to compete against LCD panels.
At the same time, LCD panels, which are used on 9 of every 10 television sets, are still evolving and show no sign of giving way in this latest battle to set the global standard - less than a decade since LCD effectively killed off plasma screens.
"OLED still has a long way to go to become a mainstream display, as it has to become bigger and improve picture quality," said Chung Won-seok, an analyst at HI Investment & Securities. "The use of OLEDs will continue to be confined to small displays at least for the next 2-3 years. Its usage as a mainstream TV panel is only likely in 2014, but even then there's a possibility of intense competition with LCD TVs as that technology keeps improving."
According to DisplaySearch, it will take another four years for OLED screens to capture less than a tenth of the global TV screen market.

University publicity
I am not a dinosaur. That is, I know that universities need press offices and officers, and indeed our own press officers have helped me out of several scrapes. The idea that a university could now exist without someone to help filter the calls about access/Higgs whatever/ancient sex is pretty unthinkable.
But how pro-active should the press office be? The husband pointed me to a trio of jobs at the Open University advertised in the paper earlier in the week, which makes the heart sink. (Let me say straightaway that I am sure that the OU is no worse than any uni... so I'm not getting at them in particular, but at the 'system' in general.)
Ok. After all the introductory stuff about what an exciting time it is to be at the OU.. the first job is a for a "reputation manager".. this is the brief:
"You will raise the profile of our academic excellence by developing stories and replaying them across a wide range of channels and audiences, including media and social media. You will need strong communication and organisational skills to lead and coordinate activities across the University and harness the support of our ambassadors."
The next one is aimed at 'social media":
"We're looking for a creative communications professional, who is comfortable in the online and social media environment, to join our Strategic Communications Programme (SCP) team to deliver a step change in how we attract students and sponsors. SCP is an integrated Marketing and Communications initiative to build our academic reputation and harness our ambassadors and advocates. You will develop our reputation for thought leadership in areas of special interest to the University."
The other is focussed I guess at employers:
"We're looking for a creative communications professional to join our Strategic Communications Programme (SCP) team to deliver a step change in how we attract students and sponsors. SCP is an integrated Marketing and Communications initiative to build our academic reputation and harness our ambassadors and advocates. You will engage employers with the benefits of sponsoring staff on OU qualifications, and students with the impact an OU qualification can have on their career."
You may wonder what these jobs actually involve doing... what would a day in the office actually involve? Not entirely clear, but the Further Particulars do add a few details.
Take the social media one. Here are some of the main duties:
• Working with Digital Engagement, contribute to a pan-university approach to social media activity.
• Work with the Senior Manager, Stakeholders and Ambassadors, on the development of our thought leadership event programme harnessing social media to increase our impact with this programme.
• Day-to-day quality control of all student and employer facing content in our primary Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn presences.
• Work with academic staff to develop their social media profiles for impact on external audiences such as potential students and the media.
• Work with staff to optimize their text, audio, and video content and social media channels, evaluating existing content. Dependent on their abilities, this may include producing and editing digital content for them.
Well apart for some elements of the social media police being involved here, you may still not be much wiser. Try the reputation manager:
• Develop and implement a new Academic Excellence Communications Strategy for the University based on a focused approach aimed at maximum impact on key opinion formers and decision-makers.
• Develop and maintain knowledge of key areas of OU academic excellence and publicise and disseminate news and information accordingly to target audiences, liaising with the media relations team as appropriate for high impact stories.
• Network across faculties, institutes and relevant service units to maximise news gathering, dissemination and impact.
• Support the development and implementation of stakeholder engagement/communications for specific high impact projects and initiatives.
• Create presentations on academic excellence for the PVC (Academic) and other senior staff and provide briefings and guidance for presentation opportunities.
• Manage high profile events aimed to raise the profile of key academics
Or the employer engagement post:
• Commission and edit news stories for the bi-monthly staff enews and liaise with the Commercial Direction, Head of Careers and PVC (Academic) to ensure that individual achievement is acknowledged with personal thanks and the best examples promoted to the Vice Chancellor for celebrating in his video addresses.
(So we learn that the VC of the OU makes "video addresses")
At this point I get to feel dead old fashioned. I really want basic uni research to get widely disseminated. But is this the way to do it? This reeks to me of another UK university which actually flew out journalists to report on its excavation in Italy, and (of course) got loads of publicity... is this the most interesting excavation in the world. NO! Do they have the most efficient pr team? yes.
And just think ofthe cost. In the OU's case, they are appointing three people for two years, on a scale of £37-42k. You have to double that, at least, for all pension contributions, overheads etc. That means we're talking more than half a million on this enterprise. Cant help think how much frontline research might have been paid for with that.

text: McFly discuss Tom Fletcher's plans for a "wedding speech tour" - video The chart-topping pop band reveal their thoughts on the viral YouTube video and discuss plans for an extended uncut version on their new album Comments Written By Susanna Lazarus 1:08 PM, 24 January 2013 McFly's Tom Fletcher became the envy of betrothed men up and down the land when he performed his sung-through groom's speech at his recent wedding to new wife, Giovanna. His 15-minute delivery - which has since been viewed by nearly 9 million fans on YouTube - has reduced women to tears and left grown men quaking in their boots, so when we caught up with McFly backstage at last night's National Television Awards we just had to ask him all about what has arguably been his most famous performance. "I don't know how I got through it," he revealed before crediting his bandmate Danny Jones with helping him put the music together. And despite drummer Harry Judd jokily hinting the video was "a bit self-indulgent" and "long", Tom is allegedly insisting on putting his wedding speech on the next album - and is even plotting a wedding speech tour.

Very interesting topic and discussion. Agreed completely about Padme and nice points about Leia – but Luke – asexual? Not in my world! But perhaps this is a common view??
Definitely not agreeing that Mara's masculine either, except for her lack of contact with her emotions…
But perhaps this is a common view??
It's certainly a viewpoint I've encountered before, though not that often… From people who are particularly anti-EU, usually.

AHHHHHHHhhhh hate to do it.
Ive enjoyed this car for a under a year but unfortunately I may be moving back to Manhattan and it will get wrecked. I bought this car last November. I flew out to LA to pick it up and drove it back to NYC area. I love driving it and Ive driven it quite a bit in the short amount of time that I have owned it (Ive put about 16K miles on it, 3K of that was the trip home) but otherwise not much has changed. It will be nicely detailed as well for anyone that decides to buy it. The car looks and runs exactly as it did when I picked it up.
Located in NYC Metro area
The Specs
-2004 S4 Avant
-Brilliant Black
-Black Silk Nappa Leather
-94K miles
It has the Premium Package, which included options such as the sunroof, home-link, multi-function steering wheel, auto-dimming interior and exterior rearview mirrors, memory for driver's seat and mirrors, and an auto light sensor. It also had built in NAV, which the previous owner upgraded to the RNS-E unit, and has the cold-weather package with heated front seats and the ski-pass through in the middle of the rear seats. It also has Audi Sport rubber floor mats which are still in the car, and I also have the original carpet mats that are used. There is also a WeatherTech trunk tray. The cargo cover is also included.
-KW V3 coilovers
-19" RS6 Hartmann Reps with Hankook Ventus' V12's
-Huper Optik 50% tint w/ life time warranty
-STaSIS B6 catback
-B7 S4 Caliper clips/springs
More info
-Eight new coilpacks were installed under the recall by previous owner, one new window regulator, a new starter, a new battery (10/14/2011), a new glove box lid (10/14/2011), and new valve covers and gaskets.
-Ive performed regular oil changes on the car every 3-5K miles or so.
-I replaced both HID head light bulbs with OEM bulbs after one of them burned out.
-I replaced the small filter/screen in the intake plumbing as the other one was in bad shape.
-The fuel gauge sensor started acting funny on the drive home from LA and I havent gotten around to replacing it.
-The temp sensor also acts funny from time to time. Doesnt seem to be an issue so far in warmer weather. I think this is a typical VW/Audi thing too but I havent looked into it too much.
-The driver window regular just went recently which I also have not fixed (pretty standard fix). Its been so hot Ive just been running the A/C. The last owner replaced the front passenger regulator. All other windows and sun roof are good so far.
-Rear wiper blade needs to be replaced.
-It will come with the extra set of winter wheels and tires in the pictures (OEM 18" RS4-look with Dunlop Wintersport 3Ds - still have plenty of life).
-The summer wheels could use some TLC and Id probably replace the summer tires soon.
-I also have the cross bars for the roof rack.
-I will also throw in all the paperwork that the last owner gave me so you have a good history of the car, including original window sticker and manuals.
Asking $19,500, serious buyers only please.

CANADA STOCKS-TSX scores biggest rally since mid Feb as oil rallies
(Adds portfolio manager quotes, details on oil sands companies, updates prices)
* TSX closed up 211.35 points, or 1.56 percent, at 13,775.19
* Index touched its highest since May 3 of 13,797.96
* Nine of the TSX's 10 main groups were higher
By Fergal Smith
TORONTO, May 10 (Reuters) - Canada's main stock index on Tuesday scored its largest gain since mid February as oil and global stocks rose, while Canada's oil sands production trickled back as the wildfire threat eased.
The rally came after the index fell on Monday to a nearly four-week low of 13,535.54.
"There certainly has been some change in sentiment and it's a good thing that investors are getting back to buying on the dips," said Elvis Picardo, strategist and vice president of research at Global Securities.
The most influential movers on the index included Suncor Energy Inc, which rose 3.9 percent to C$34.52, and Canadian Natural Resources Ltd, which advanced 3.1 percent to C$36.95. Continued...

Thank you for writing in today. Since he has had 3 episodes of sudden vomiting within the last couple days, I would recommend evaluation. There are many different things that can cause sudden vomiting. Certain viral illnesses can cause some vomiting, and it is the right time of year. If other members of your family have had similar episodes of vomiting, this would be telling; however, this could also be related to another underlying issues, such as esophagitis or ulcer to name a few. Perhaps a physical exam will help eliminate other possible causes. Also, a review of his past medical history would be helpful to determine the cause of this vomiting. I hope this helps. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please let me know. Lisa

Is there a formula to help compair flashlights where some have their power listed in Candle Power and others listed in units of Lumens?
IIRC the units are based on different criteria - one is Illuminance the other Luminance - something like that so not sure if a direct conversion is absolute.
Anyways try here
I dont know of the forumla but if i rember right master converter is a freeware/shareware progy that should do it , i dont have the link handy sorry and am running on a deal ... post back if you cant find it or it is non suitable .
I looked a while back and never could find a direct way to compare them - finally decided that there are two units just so I can't compare Surefire with Streamlight!
I have a funny feeling that you're going to feel sorry that you asked if (below) is any indication. :biggrin2:

Conversion Of Lumens To Candlepower
Reference: F. A. Jenkins and H. E. White,
Fundamentals of Optics,
McGraw-Hill, 1950
Your question goes to the heart of why we need international standards.
Back in the middle ages the size of the kings foot was how long a foot was resulting in every kingdom having a different unit of length.
If something valuable was measured by length, such as cloth, then it was best to have a king with a small foot.
The same is true for other archaic units of measure such as candlepower and candles.
The wax, wick, size parameters can all be different and each candle would give a different answer.
Also the temperature of the candle flame and color wavelength distribution) are related key parameters that determine how bright candles are.
When electric light bulbs were invented in the late 1800s they rated
the brightness relative to candles just as steam engine manufacturers rated there engines in horse power.
As you well know there also are many different sized horses.
So what is a horse power?
Thus an international system of standard units came into being to have everyone measure things using the same standard units.
The standards that you are seeking are part of the science of photometry.
These standards have metric and English units making it difficult for students to understand all of the different names.
Just as the here in the U.S.A. we are still using yards instead of meters.
The bottom line is that the world (at least the world of science and engineering) has given up on using candle power and candles and that currently the candela replaces the old candle.
The candela is the luminous intensity, in a given direction, of a source that emits monochromatic radiation of frequency 540 x 10^12 hertz (a green laser) and that has a radiant intensity in that direction of 1/683 watt per steradian.
References about the history and how we currently measure one candle power
(luminous intensity) today are based on the work of the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST)
http://www.physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/index.html http://
Your question asks about white light sources and in that case the candle power, the candle and the candela are all equal to one lumen per steradian.
There are 4 times Pi steradians in a sphere.
If you are not familiar with working with steradians as solid angles we can convert the standard to square degrees.
There are 41,252.96 square degrees in a sphere. Divided by 4 times Pi that gives 3,282.81 square degrees per steradian.
Thus a candle power (CP) = one lumen per
3,282.81 square degrees or inversely , 304.6 x 10^-6 (0.0003046) lumen per square degree per candlepower.
As you can see a one CP is a very weak light source.
Because a flashlight or spotlight is an extended light source (the diameter of the reflector or lens) not a point source, it is possible, but difficult to calculate your answer.
However, experimental measurements will probably give a better answer.
All that you need to know are the number of square degrees that the flashlights illuminate at a distance of 12 feet and 60 feet from the light source.
If the beam spots are round (a cone of light) then you can measure the diameter of the beam in degrees from the light source and calculate the number of square degrees from Pi times the diameter (in degrees) squared divided by 4.
To calculate the CP at each location first calculate the number of lumens from the flashlight divided by the number of square degrees in the spot.
This gives the number of lumens per square degree.
Then divide by divide by 304.6 x 10^-6 (0.0003046) lumens per
square degree per candle power to give the total candle power.
The problem with this measurement or the aperture calculation is that the light flux in the spot or in the aperture of the flashlight is not uniform across the beam diameter.
So which beam diameter do you use? My flashlight has a 30 inch (12 degrees) diameter beam at 12 feet with a 10 inch diameter
(4 degrees) bright spot (the filament)in the center.
Using your 125 lumens and the 4 degree hot spot cone angle (113 square degrees) from my flashlight optics gives 32,567 CP.
The 12 degree cone angle (12.6 square degrees)results in 3691 CP.
However, not all of the lumens are in the hot spot. If you could measure the number of lumens in the hot spot then you could calculate a more accurate value for CP.
I wonder which spot diameter spotlight manufacturers use? (probably the greatest CP, that is why we see adds for million CP spotlights). Also, atmospheric losses are not considered in the calculations.
As you can see from my example a number for CP is subject wide variability while the number of lumens in a beam is much more accurate.

QK, What!!!!!
Don't worry mkeBob...those Converted Lumens are Zoomin'...right over my head. :biggrin2:
Thx to QK - I feel better i-lumen-ated :18:
No one can hold a candela to our QK :wink:
That's greek to me. Time to go get a gyro.:hand5:
The way I understand it, Candlepower is how bright the center of the beam is. Lumens is overall brightness.
Reason for my question is seeing a Scorpion Mini LED Lithium flashlight listed as having 42 Lumens of light output and the other Scorpion Mini at 6,500 candlepower.
I'd like to know which is stronger & if it's a big difference or just a little difference.
Correct. Candlepower is a measure of the brightest spot of the beam. Lumen is a measure of the overall brightness of the beam itself. The conversion from CP to L is crazy difficult, as proved in the previous post. For all intense and purpose, it is beyond layman's conversion.
When you are shopping for a light, the lumens are a better indication of the quality and brightness of a given light source. The law of averages is working here. There is a larger discrepency between different points of a CP rated light than a lumen rated light. A lumen rated light is more consistent in light output and that is more meaningful than 'power'. I won't buy a light that is rated in CP. Too much variation in light output. A CP rated light can have 5 million candlepower in a tiny spot, but a lumen rated light can have a very bright light signature ALL OVER the entire beam. That is more important to me. I don't care about the brightness of a pin-sized dot, as I look at something in the dark with the WHOLE beam, not just part of it.
Just a though, its like converting how fast a car can go to horsepower. Only more difficult.

Lets take a look at the two you mentioned. :)
First the Streamlight Scorpion.
Lux at the center=4418
Overall output=5800
lumens= ~93.96 (according to a calculation doug posted on CPF)
Now for the Streamlight Scorpion LED.
Lux at the center=1867
Overall output=2600
Lumens= ~36.14
Obviously the regular Scorpion is brighter (by more than twice as much) but runtime is what kills it. You get about 1 hour of light with the regular Scorpion while the LED Scorpion will last 2 hr. 49min. before you get to 50% brightness. Its always comes to runtime vs. output. Which one you need is dependant on how you are to use it. If it will be an EDC light/general purpose light then the LED Scorpion would be great with the longer runtime and being pretty bright still. If this is going to be a nightstand light and only used when things go bump in the night then have the extra brightness may be adventagous. :)
Holy smokes it's a flashlight turn it on shine in your eyes which one blinds you more.
That's funny. Good reply.Quote:

NO! Win-masochism foreva!!
I've had to use a mac a couple of days ago to record something at work. So i've recorded it in garage band(figured it was the easiest way) and then had to go back to my pc to google instructions on how to export a mix lol:) I'm such a dinosaur when it comes to mac. I'm very skillful when it comes to pc tho
No need to switch from one to the other. Just add a cheap Mac Mini, Macbook or similar, either refurbished or used to your setup. You can keep your monitor, just get a switch, to be able to switch the input between your Windows PC and Mac. You could do the same for keyboard and mouse. Easy to switch back and forth.

yes its hard not to laugh, but think about where John has been and seen. I have been chasing the ORV stuff now for 9 years. John already has like 10-15 years ahead of me when it comes to fighting wrongful issues. I just wish someone could have stopped Engler from making some of the slick cuts he got in. Engler was the driving force behind closing the rec areas to ORV traffic back in `91. the excuse he used was there were to many lawsuits againest the state. then in `94 the law changed so you couldn't sue the state for negligence of anykind. but did they reopen the rec areas? not on your life. the last time I asked a DNR guy about it he began spouting off about some fund that prohibited the ORVs being used on lands purchased with monies from it. the trick here is the area I asked about had been purchased and owned long before the fund existed.

I drove to Detroit one day in late '99 or early 2000 to attend the first ever real meeting of Michigan light 4-wheeled enthusiasts in a parking lot somewhere near the Ford museum.
All of the sudden, in rolls a fancy trailer full of everything under the sun and out hops a guy and his dog bragging of 'preferrential benefits' for previous members who obviously joined a very short period of time before I just did.
I waited around for somebody to say something (especially the guys receiving these 'discounts' that nobody else was going to receive) and when I finally raised my hand to question this 'alpha-whatever' crap....you should've witnessed how UGLY it got in a New York second.
After the obvious dirty looks shot my way from these 'pioneers' in Michigan orv history...the crowd literally surrounded this guy to the point of his nervously stammering:
......"Well, I uhhhhh had to tell them (initial members) something!..."
Years later, after many more questions were thrown their way involving our one and only chance (since then) to have a MAJORITY user representative on the board and many more threats/insults than I could ever count thrown this way over my being the only one to ever 'dare' question this guy...the club imploded over all the issues I had previously brought forward under fire and more good people were chased away than we will ever be able to count.
The latter part is the saddest story here and the only real one of consequence; yet I didn't want folks to think that I've been in this mess any longer than other good folks out there given the opportunity to become much more involved in orv issues than I....had I promised to keep my mouth shut and not questioned the obvious involving simple openness and proper public procedures. (it's pretty hard to run a club when you're not elected in the first place and it's even harder to start another if you can't even agree on a political platform to begin with that you're proud enough to stand behind).
Just wanted to set the record straight.
Oh, and by the way....that cold parking lot was the first and only time I had ever heard the phrase 'strongarming the DNR' in reference to a group who later attempted to absorb some of these same people after it was apparent that (again) no political platform was being formed or that none would be involving the opposition to issues such as 100 mile single-track only proposals in the Huron Forest (a few years back) or even House Bill 5343.
Soon after, the unfortunate title of this thread was born and the rest; as they say...is history.

I can't beleive I am sticking my nose into this thread. I don't need the blood pressure issues anymore. But, well here goes nothing.
I read some of this and it seems this thread really surrounds house bill 5343 and what I assume is a lack of support for it.
Isn't this the bill (did some searching, can't find it on state or house sites) that would have widened ATV trails to accomodate the Argos vehicles? As I remember, this bill was not supported by anyone. Not because of some conspiracy against the owners or manufacturers of the wider ATV's, but because, as I remember, the majority (5.x million dollars) of the DNR 7 mill. budget for ORV improvements that year would have been used for this project in order to benefit, what at that time was a very small number of potential users.
I used to attend ORV advisory board meetings at that time and was very happy to hear that this particular bill failed. I mean really, all that money for a hand full of vehicles registered in the state at the time. Just did not make any sense. There are better ways to spend that money and still include this group of users.
Of course, if I am wrong about the nature of bill 5343, please enlighten me.
|February 24th, 2007, 04:30 PM
You're obviously not trying to be 'enlightened'....rather attempting to spread the same propoganda that we've put up with for years now that cannot be backed up when confronted.
Again, how stupid do you believe us all to be here?
Isn't it funny how these guys argue 'cost'.....yet don't want to talk about the millions we have in our fund right now; coupled with the present push to increase fees to any level required?
And since you're obviously such an expert on just why HB5343 was 'impossible'....why don't you tell us about the "environmental concerns" card that these same 'leaders' played in defeating said bill....as this was never publicly explained any more than the 'cost' issue was....and never will be!

John I don't think it was explained past being "Impractical" for cost reasons. and as for practiced response. I haven't seen anything more about it in a long time. seems to me the subject died. now if you want to aim your anger somewhere why not ask how the ORV.A.B. has let a whole year slip by with nothing to show for the extended miles they claim we're going to get? I haven't seen anything that even remotely looked like a plan everyone would except and yet they still have all the promises that its coming.
I made the suggestion that we should get a major portion of forest roads designated as "route" and then we could use that in the miles. it wouldn't cost the users a dime other for signage. its time everyone made suggestions rather point fingers. maybe we can all come up with small pieces that can be made into something worth building on.

[QUOTE=Yetti;442144]"John I don't think it was explained past being "Impractical" for cost reasons...."
C'mon now, my friend...from your very own post on the great lakes four wheel drive association forum quoting "guess who":
"...HB 5343: Anyone who read that Bill and understood all they read, would soon realize, it was a piece of "undersireable legislation". We can and will, do far better than that when its all over. Hope you all realize, some who post on here, are not telling it exactly like it is. Was any mention made of the cost of widening about 1,000 miles of trail to 60" and who was going to do it? What would the after affects be? Speed, safety, erosion and a host of others...."
"...I haven't seen anything more about it in a long time. seems to me the subject died...."
Well when "god" spoke both then and certainly today...who ever 'dares' question such insignificant details as contained in the last two sentances above?
"...now if you want to aim your anger somewhere why not ask how the ORV.A.B. has let a whole year slip by with nothing to show for the extended miles they claim we're going to get? I haven't seen anything that even remotely looked like a plan everyone would except and yet they still have all the promises that its coming...."
All I can tell you, Dana is that if your club leadership isn't sitting on this super-secret and anonymous board above...and if the secretive powers that be are not allowing your membership to have a publicly held position regarding this mileage; where it will be laid out ; who will be able to use it and most importantly how it will be funded....then I'd have to say that we are in even more trouble than I had ever believed.
If your club isn't on top of these hugely important issues representing the majority of our riders out there at the single most critical period in this system's history...who in the heck is pray tell that would be willing to give us an update here and possibly answer some questions directly put to them with no punches pulled?
"...I made the suggestion that we should get a major portion of forest roads designated as "route" and then we could use that in the miles. it wouldn't cost the users a dime other for signage. its time everyone made suggestions rather point fingers. maybe we can all come up with small pieces that can be made into something worth building on...."
I guess I'm pointing a finger at those who killed the suggestion that Polaris and representative Hildenbrand already made to properly widen and maintain the sytem....without anything but broad accusations that they were never required to explain or prove. These same people were backed up by your club and supposedly "22,000" others....so I have little faith that a call out now for 'suggestions' after the horse has already left the barn....will do much to convince those guilty of letting him out in the first place literally years ago.

its a post of Dicks letter. I didn't write it. the real deal is what is Dick or anyone else doing for us?
I try and keep an ear open for any little glimmer of life that would lead me to the path of ORV greatness. I haven't found it in "the club" or anywhere else. some how I managed to get granted this forum where everyone can speak openly about the Taboo subjects around this sport.
remind me to tell you a story when I see you at the next Advisory board meeting. you will get a hell of a laugh out of it.
|February 25th, 2007, 08:36 PM
We'd all love to support Dick or anyone else out there on Michigan orv issues.
Yet with the amount of money and mileage now on the line having reached historical proportions for not only this area but by far most others in the history of motorized recreation in this country as a whole...it's time for the 'Almighty Oz' to come out from behind that curtain :dunie: (along with everybody else running cover for him).

onemanbanned you should get to know someone before you start slamming them. I happen to know that trailfanatic has been working his butt off to save trails(of all natures).Yetti ,Sorry. onemanbanned you sound like a real JERK. You are blasting someone who has actually been making headway for ORV folks. And for some who JUST started on the forum , well you come off a blanking jerk.

[QUOTE=greatpumpkin;443156]"onemanbanned you should get to know someone before you start slamming them. I happen to know that trailfanatic has been working his butt off to save trails(of all natures)...."
I don't remember Trail Fanatic's name ever coming up in this thread once.
Please re-read the above and simply quote what caused you to 'go off' on me involving any perceived slight of this individual...and I will address it.
While you're at it....please examine any of the claims that I have made on here regarding the mess that we've been put in by these people; causing countless good folks to be turned away from getting involved in these issues for many years now (arrogance and secrecy are great strategies to employ if you want to turn everybody away with half a brain or even a touch of professionalism that would 'dare' question you...as most in this category just won't put up with said crap for any length of time).
"....Yetti ,Sorry. onemanbanned you sound like a real JERK. You are blasting someone who has actually been making headway for ORV folks. And for some who JUST started on the forum , well you come off a blanking jerk...."
Again, point out where 'your guy' got his feelings hurt on this thread...didn't want to say so...and sent you on in here to set the record straight.
Are you trying to tell me that Trail Fanatic formed the super-secret council that I question above....and is just as guilty as the members on it now making that sure that all PUBLIC discussion be squashed of these millions now in our fund along with debate regarding these hundreds of extra miles and how we will fund this system through these fee increases?
I don't believe it...as TF has never been anything but receptive as to what I've had to say (qwhether he agreed with it or not) and always replied with the kind of professionalism that I would expect of somebody representing us.

Where was Trail Fanatic even so much as mentioned in this thread...and if you can't answer that very direct query ...why would you want to come on up here and blurt out that he was somehow 'wronged' in any way, shape or form?
It's like everybody wants to attack you while claiming this or that...yet the second you pin them down with cold hard facts or give them a little history lesson where their valiant knights in shining armor fall off their own darn horse for no good reason ...they disappear!

You wonder why everyone has banned you. Don't you see that your posts are 10 times longer than they need to be? You continue to use inuendos and hint at things.

By the way, I totally missed TF's post on the 16th....yet even so....why does it take 3 other guys to come on here about how his feelings were somehow hurt?
I can see pretty much gather from scanning said post briefly that even after only a year of hearing one side of the story....he can pretty much speak and defend his thoughts more than intelligently and professionally without any help from a peanut gallery only willing to spout a few sentances of ridicule to the facts presented while crawling back in to the hole.
In fact, I haven't witnessed anybody but Yetti and TF willing to give their frank and open opinions on all of these sorted critical issues staring us in the face for years now....so I guess that I have more respect for both of these two at the moment....than the rest of you on here combined. (I'll respond to TF's post later; just as I've responded to most questions here when asked).
|February 27th, 2007, 06:25 AM
I've spent a lot of time explaining exactly how we got here and why these recently released millions are not being talked about anymore than a fee increase that we should be openly debating for the sustainable sake and overall health of what will soon be an almost 4,000 mile system. (a system in such bad shape, that the very 'leaders' shepherding this discussion behind closed doors....desired "shut down for study" in certain areas that they would not and still won't identify).
I hate to say it folks....but if you choose not to operate out in the open and with even a hint of professionalism or respect for the procedural matters which give order to this mess (advisory board terms extended for literally years without any kind of announcement or explanation; our stenographer eliminated recording who said what and when; meetings cancelled because "we have nothing to talk about"; the list goes on....) then you're left with guys hanging big signs out the front door of your gatherings that look similiar to the picture in the above signature.

Two posts and 'out' of crass insults....yet not a word to any of the myriad of issues brought forward here....on account of the fact that we're literally all out in the open here seeking publicly held positions to afford us even some kind of clue as to how this board representing "22,000" of us will proceed with literrally tens of millions of our dollars now on the line.
I'm telling you....we will NEVER attract professional or younger people with legitimate questions if they continually run into the behavior exhibited above.
And I believe a lot of folks have desired that to be the case for decades now.

Juniors Deli & Cafe was opened on the 4th of July 2008 by brothers Paul & Barry McNerney. The goal of the restaurant was to provide honest, affordable and creative food at a reasonable price in a fun and relaxed setting, this may seem like a seemingly simple concept but for one reason or another was, and some may argue still is, a rarity in Dublin.
The idea was to be a New York style Deli, serving generous sandwiches salads, soups and specials by day, and an Italian influenced Cafe by night. Over two years since the opening Juniors continues to be a popular destination for locals and visitors alike, so much so, that in July of 2010, Juniors - Paulie's Pizza, was opened to cater to the increasing demand.
Paulie's Pizza aim is to be the first pizzeria in Ireland to create real Neapolitan style pizza. To do this we use only Caputo '00' flour, San Marzano tomatoes, the best mozzarella, slow proved dough and a wood fired oven which cooks at over 450 degrees Celsius- the Vera Pizza Napoletana.
The menu is constantly changing at Juniors Deli & Cafe as well as Paulie's Pizza depending on what is in season, fresh and delicious, so next time you're in Dublin 4 drop in to a Juniors in Beggars Bush and check us out.

Wilendur and Wilendure collectors will love this set of Barberry tablecloth and 4 napkins. Never used, never washed, never taken out of the box except for this photo. From the department store The Crescent, which was located in Spokane Washington, and operated as such until purchased by Marshall Field in 1962. The box is a bit worn and not perfect, but intact. The tablecloth has the original tissue, and is ripped a bit. The tablecloth is perfect as is the Wilendur label, both cardboard and sewn in tag. Four napkins measure 16 x 17 and are perfect as well. Table cloth is 54 x 54, creamy white background with red berries and white flowers that alternate with yellow bell flowers. On page 118 of Michelle Hayes book: Elegant Table Linens from Weil & Durrse including Wilendur.Some soil from storage, as this has never been washed. I will leave that to the new owner. Please ask any questions that you may have. I am happy to answer. I am passionate about my vintage linens, and welcome any comments or suggestions. All of my linens come to you expertly packaged, quickly shipped and from a clean non smoking home.
