I have been using my 3030Z for over three years for snapshots without a single problem. It still compares extremely well with current 3 megapixel cameras. The f2.8 lense is very good, and all pictures are sharp and clear. The colors are very accurate (less saturated than newer point and shoot cameras), which is what the pros like best. However, newer cameras all give more saturated colors, which is what amateurs like best, so, if you want more saturation, you can change the camera ...View review in forums Leave a comment on this review
Olympus C-3030 Zoom
I've been using my Oly3030 for about a year now. Taken thousands of pics with it and very happy with my purchase. I've gone on 2 trips and the photos that came out were generally very good. Picture quality is very good. Everyone comments that the pictures are sharp and clear. Always shoot at the max resolution, and typically I get 80 shots on a 64MB card. The camera's construction is solid. Feels very natural and not "plasticky". Can easily shoot even with one hand and still use the zoom. ...View review in forums Leave a comment on this review
Got mine about 6 months ago -- writing June 2002. Solidly built but a bit heavy. This is a very versatile camera, with heaps of functions that one could have some serious fun with. I found my outdoor shots (esp. nature) improved dramatically when using the outdoor white balance setting. Great, very sharp, clear, orthodox pictures most of the time. I found it fairly easy to learn to use -- common sense and the odd lookup in the easy-to-follow manual helped when I didn't understand how to ...View review in forums Leave a comment on this review
I have owned the C-3030 for just over a year now and am still amazed at what a great piece of equipment it is. Amazing photos every time. Had to sit down for a weekend and study the manual (Sounds like some reviewers never took the time to do this!) to get used to all the features but once the time was invested I was off and running with no problems. Problems: That old lense cap problem. Lense motor sounds terrible.View review in forums Leave a comment on this review
I'VE OWNED THE CAMERA FOR ABOUT A YEAR NOW AND I'M VERY MUCH PLEASED WITH THE PIC'S I'VE TAKEN AND IT'S AT LEAST OVER 1000. Problems: IT'S VERY SLOW TAKING ACTION SHOT'S, SPORT PHOTO'S. IF YOU HAVE A SOLUTION FOR THIS PROBLEM PLEASE LET ME KNOW.View review in forums Leave a comment on this review
It is easy to take good pictures with this camera. You just have to turn it on and shoot. But there's also a lot of manual functions you can use if you are an expert in photography. Problems: It consumes the batteries fast especially if you haven't turned the display off. Because of all the functions the menus is a bit complex.View review in forums Leave a comment on this review
Owned a 20/20/ bought 30/30 ideal second camera . incredible array of features takes a low learning curve to learn .using the 122 megcard up to 925 low resolution picture 50+ super hi quality pictures per card. Make sure you review all setting before any photo shoot. Problems: make shure to turn off when not using to avoid damaging the telescopic lens cost 340 to fixView review in forums Leave a comment on this review
Outdoor photos are great. When printing outdoor photos, quality is very good. Problems: You need alot of light when taking indoor photos.View review in forums Leave a comment on this review
Great pictures and fairly easy to use. Problems: I think the lense cover problem should have been given a little thought before production and I notice quite a few have problems with the memory cards. I found, with mine, the problem was not with the cards but with the wiper conacts in the camers. I have been runing the card in and out of the slot until it makes contact. Works for me.View review in forums Leave a comment on this review

One of the new key components of Freie Universität's internationalization strategy is to establish Strategic Partnerships worldwide with a number of leading foreign research institutions. These particular partnerships aim to impact on as many areas of university life as possible and to deepen teaching and research cooperation.
Freie Universität Berlin and its Strategic Partners strategically implore opportunities to develop joint research and study projects, to jointly organize conferences and events, and to systematically promote junior researchers. The exchange of administrative staff serves to further improve the frameworks of cooperation.
The first four partners were identified in a bottom-up approach analyzing already existing contacts and joint projects as well as the potential for future collaboration. In 2011 and 2012, Freie Universität Berlin initiated three Strategic Partnerships with the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, the Peking University, and the St Petersburg State University. In 2014, the University of British Columbia and in 2016, the University of California Berkeley were added as Strategic Partners. The latest partnership of this type was established with the University of Zurich in April 2017. To promote the development of further joint activities, Freie Universität and its partners dedicate special seed money funds. Please check the individual strategic partnerships for current calls for proposals.
Further Strategic Partnerships are currently being developed and it is planned to establish eight to ten such partnerships over the coming years.
Since 2015 Freie Universität Berlin, together with its four strategic partners, focuses on sustainability as a comprehensive topic for collaborating in research, teaching, and campus management within the framework of the University Alliance for Sustainability.
The core motivation behind these deeper bilateral alliances is simple: Enabling the use of synergies and facilitating the pooling of strengths and resources through a closer collaboration in the field of research, teaching and administration. The goals of Strategic Partnerships are:

Hanover NH (SPX) Oct 18, 2013
Climate change affects forests across North America - in some cases permitting insect outbreaks, plant diseases, wildfires and other problems -- but Dartmouth researchers say warmer temperatures are also making many forests grow faster and some less susceptible to pests, which could boost forest health and acreage, timber harvests, carbon storage, water recycling and other forest benefits in some areas.
The Dartmouth-led study, which appears in the journal Ecological Monographs, reviewed nearly 500 scientific papers dating to the 1950s, making it the most comprehensive review to date of climate change's diverse consequences for forests across the United States, Canada and the rest of North America.
Tree-killing insects and plant diseases are natural elements of healthy forest ecosystems, but climate change is rapidly altering the distribution and magnitude of forest pestilence and altering biodiversity and the ecosystem. For example, pine bark beetles have recently killed trees over more area of U.S. forests than wildfires, including in areas with little previous experience managing aggressive pests.
"One of our prominent challenges is to adapt forest management tactics and generalize the underlying theory to cope with unprecedented changes in pest pressure," the authors say.
Results show that over the last 50 years, the average global air temperature has increased about 1 F, while the coldest winter night averages about 7 F warmer. That has permitted population explosions of tree-killing bark beetles in forests that were previously shielded by winter cold and made it easier for invasive species to become established.
But tree growth rates in many regions are increasing due to atmospheric change, which may increase resilience to pests. Also, pest populations in some regions may decline, allowing those forests and their environmental and economic benefits to expand.

how do I setup VPN access to my network? I have a T1 through ATT managed Internet service at the central office. My company has 13 branch locations without servers, only two Windows 2000 Pro client computers per branch office. I'm running Windows Server 2003 Small Business Premium Edition with ISA 2000 and Exchange 2003 (not configured) with dual NIC cards, one for WAN 192.168.x.x and LAN 10.1.x.x.

First we need to know what all your connections use to get to the internet. I assume there is some kind of router at each spot and if so what kind.
Secondly do you have a budget?
Feb 27, 2008 at 2:21 UTC
Thank you for your response. At the central office we have a Cisco 1841 router connected to a T1 via AT&T. The remote locations are connect via AT&T DSL with a 2Wire gateway. The remote locations do not have any servers. I do not have a budget at this time. I thought there was a way to enable VPN at the central office without running additional servers per remote site.
Feb 27, 2008 at 2:57 UTC
You can set up the VPNs with out a server at the branch locations however you will need some form of hardware to complete a VPN tunnel to your Cisco 1841 router. The Cisco 1841 router supports up to 800 VPN tunnels. So you would need routers at each of your branch locations also you would need the savvy to configure the Cisco router, and what ever other compatible hardware you purchase, with the three layers of encryption involved in a VPN tunnel.
The other option is to go with some sort of software solution. LogMeIn Hamachi is software you run on the clients that you can configure in minutes. A secure VPN peer to peer link can be established with no hardware. Its free for the basic version while premium has a small price tag. You can find it here
The hardware solution is more secure and manageable but can be pricey. After you figure out what your budget is and the scope of your project you can better determine what solution best fits your needs.
Feb 28, 2008 at 7:54 UTC
One cheap way is to get SHIVA lan rovers they sell pretty much under 100$, i even saw some at 40$ on EBAY.
We used to have these, only problem we had (and maybe it was a setup) is that we needed to synchronize them occasionally.
There is also a cheap way to use linksys routers, change the OS to a linux (dont remember which one) and it can be used has a very complex vpn with rules and others thingy (but i'm no expert i only know that it can be done)

What Makes Exxon Mobil Stock A Buy?
- Oil prices have continued to fall sharply reaching a 12-year low on January 20.
- Exxon Mobil stock has held up well in this oil price fall.
- However, oil prices will eventually recover and now is the time to load up on Exxon Mobil Stock.
Exxon Mobil (NYSE:XOM), the world's largest publicly traded oil and gas company, has been less negatively affected by the crash in oil prices than other energy stocks. While crude oil prices have fallen about 67% since July 01, 2014, and natural gas and gasoline have dropped about 57%, Exxon Mobil stock has declined only 20.1%, as shown in the table below.
While Exxon Mobil's upstream revenues and earnings have significantly declined due to falling oil prices, the company's downstream operations have done pretty well, taking advantage of better crack spreads, which explains the lower drop in Exxon Mobil stock price compared to the decline in prices of energy commodities.
Exxon Mobil Upstream Earnings Could Decline
The average WTI crude oil price in the fourth quarter of 2015 was at $44.57 a barrel while the average Brent crude oil price was at $46.30. Nevertheless, Exxon's upstream operations were able to show earnings of $857 million in the quarter, which were much lower than in the previous quarters, as shown in the chart below. Non-U.S. operations contributed earnings of $1,395 million while U.S. upstream operations showed a loss of $538 million. For the current quarter, upstream results might come in much worse since oil prices have fallen further. Thus far in the current quarter, the average WTI crude price is at $31.46 a barrel, 29.4% lower than in the prior quarter, and the average Brent crude price is at $33.04 a barrel, 28.6% lower than in the previous quarter. Hence, it is pretty much possible that Exxon Mobil's upstream operations will show a loss in Q1 2016.
Exxon Downstream Earnings Could Rise
Exxon's downstream operations have benefited from higher crack spreads and lower natural gas price. The segment earnings of $6,557 million in 2015 were 115.3% higher than the earnings in 2014. For the current quarter, it is possible that Exxon's downstream operations will show higher earnings since the average RBOB Gasoline Crack Spread, thus far, is at $13.22 a barrel or 12.9% greater than the spread in the previous quarter. Also, the average natural gas price for the current quarter, at $2.16 per Million Btu, is 11.8% lower than in the prior quarter. Refiners use natural gas as an energy source for the process - cheap natural gas helps to lower production cost.
Exxon Mobil Chemical Earnings Could Continue Growth
Exxon's chemical operations earnings for 2015 came in at $4,418 million, good for 2.4% YoY growth. Chemical earnings are expected to show similar results in 2016 since lower raw material costs compensate for lower product prices.
All in all, despite the extremely low oil prices, Exxon will continue to show profits, as downstream and chemical earnings and cost reduction will be much higher than the possible upstream losses in case oil prices continue to remain so low.
Oil prices have continued to fall sharply reaching a 12-year low on January 20, and it is not clear if the 20.8% rise in Brent crude oil and 8.4% increase in WTI crude oil, since then, indicates a bottom. Nevertheless, oil price will eventually recover sooner or later. As no one has anticipated crude oil plunging 70% in a year and a half, it is impossible at this moment to determine when oil prices will start to climb. However, commodities prices are moving in cycles, and lower capital expenditures on exploration and production will eventually cause oil prices to rebound. Investors in Exxon Mobil stock can expect a significant price appreciation when oil prices do recover.
Exxon Mobil Stock Sports A Sustainable Dividend Yield
While waiting for a recovery in oil prices, investors in Exxon Mobil stock are receiving a pretty high sustainable dividend currently yielding 3.60%. Moreover, Exxon's annual rate of dividend growth over the past three years was high at 13.4%, was 10.2% over the past five years, and over the last ten years also was high at 9.8%. Exxon has increased its annual dividend payment to shareholders for 33 consecutive years. Even during the global economic crisis during the years 2008-2009, Exxon Mobil continued to increase its dividend.
Exxon's results reflect its relentless focus on costs. In 2015, the company achieved about $11.5 billion in capital and cash operating cost reductions. Moreover, Exxon's guidance for 2016 capital expenditure is $23.2 billion, a 25% reduction from 2015 and a 40% reduction from 2014; the largest percentage reduction among the super-majors. In contrast to many oil and gas companies, Exxon was able to generate positive free cash flow in 2015. Solid operating performance combined with continued investment and cost discipline generated cash flow from operations and asset sales of $32.7 billion and free cash flow of $6.5 billion.
Looking beyond the current weakness in energy prices, and considering its strong balance sheet, Exxon might take advantage of the situation by making acquisitions at the bottom of the cycle. According to the company, there is a tremendous amount of interest in acquisitions. However, they remain very patient and keep alert to the value propositions.
Exxon Mobil stock has generally been a top performer among energy stocks in low oil price environment, and has outperformed in the current bear market. Also, the stock could remain a top defensive performer, as the company is the only major with the ability to balance its cash cycle when Brent crude is below $45 a barrel. Since the beginning of the year Exxon Mobil stock is up 4.2% while the S&P 500 Index has decreased 7.3%, and the Nasdaq Composite Index has lost 11.4%.

To summarize, considering Exxon Mobil's strong balance sheet, its highly profitable downstream and chemical operations, and the company's focus on creating shareholder value through the cycle, Exxon Mobil stock is an attractive long-term investment. While waiting for a significant rebound in the price of oil, investors can enjoy the generous dividend yielding 3.60% a year. The company has a long record of 33 years of consecutive dividend hikes. Even during the global economic crisis of the years 2008-2009, Exxon continued to increase its dividend, which makes it a pretty safe dividend play.

Young people participating in Professor Elaine Reese's research enter a room at the University of Otago that has couches, magazines, and large stuffed animals. It's definitely not a sterile office.
"Even though we call this a lab, it's in an old villa, it's in a house. So it's not hard to make it feel homey," says Elaine (left). "We consciously leave it a little bit messy, to help them feel a little but more at home."
Elaine and her team want adolescents who enter the lab to feel comfortable enough to divulge their life stories and the turning points they've experienced to the interviewers.
"The main thing is that our interviewers are very, very good listeners and very supportive listeners and they let the teenagers know that anything they say in this room is going to be confidential," Elaine told Ruth Beran.
Life stories give an indication of a person's identity. Adolescents in particular are trying to work out who they are and how they are unique.
"Nobody has the same life story that I have, and so we do think that it tells us something special or unique about each one of the teenagers or children who are in our study," says Elaine, author of the book Tell Me a Story: Sharing Stories to Enrich Your Child's World.
In particular, Elaine is looking at the highs and lows, and the turning points in the young people's lives, getting them to describe what has changed them as a person and why. The emphasis is on the young person's perspective, and whether they can see how the events in their lives have shaped who they are becoming.
The ability of teenagers to see the "silver lining" in an event, rather than the storm clouds, is a reflection of their psychological well-being.
"We think it probably has its origins in the way parents are talking to very young children throughout their lives about negative events and difficult events," says Elaine.
However, it seems that 12 and 13-year old boys who are telling the most coherent stories appear to be having the highest rates of depression, which is still a bit of a mystery to Elaine and her team. It may be that the cognitive processing of the event is beyond their emotional level and they're not able to fully integrate it and to pull out the positive aspects.
"In a sense, they're over analysing," says Elaine, and they're ruminating without necessarily coming to a resolution.
This rumination will be the focus of future research for Elaine's group to try and prevent depression in teenagers, as well as working with parents to increase dialogue with their children to see if putting a positive spin on life events helps depression too.

Galaxy and CiteULike
The Galaxy Project uses the CiteULike social bookmarking service to organize papers that are about, use, or reference Galaxy.
CiteULike supports groups which allow individuals to build a collaborative library of references. Libraries represent a set of papers that the group has flagged as relevant to group's purpose.
The Galaxy Group is open to any CiteULike user. After joining this group, you can add papers to the group, assign tags, and rate papers.
CiteULike Tags
CiteULike makes extensive use of tags to categorize papers and enable smarter searching. The Galaxy Group uses this set of tags (some detailed below) to categorize papers in the Galaxy Group library.
|Papers that used Galaxy in their methods.
|Papers that are about the project or Main. Galaxy is the central theme of these papers.
|Papers that are about other installations of Galaxy.
|Papers that have published workflows, histories, datasets, pages, or visualizations in a Galaxy instance.
|Papers about reproducibility and persistence in science.
|Papers with an emphasis on using compute clouds.
|Papers about how to use Galaxy for specific analyses.
|Papers with an emphasis on visualization and/or visual analytics.
*Tag was added in 2013 so older papers won't have these tags.
Every paper should have at least one tag (even if it is just "other"), and papers can have more than one tag. Tagged papers are listed in approximate order of relevance to the Galaxy project. See Citing Galaxy for how to cite the Galaxy Project itself.
Want to Help?
To help the Galaxy community identify relevant papers, you can add papers to the Galaxy Group library and rate papers that are currently in the library.
We particularly need help with papers that were published before 2011!
No more Mendeley
The Galaxy CiteULike Group was originally mirrored to a Galaxy Mendeley Group on a weekly basis, complete with the CiteULike tag set. However, in February 2013, Mendeley stopped supporting their CiteULike to Mendeley bridge, thus greatly increasing the amount of work needed to maintain the mirror. Further complicating things, later that spring Mendeley was purchased by a traditionally closed access publisher. As of February 2013, the Mendeley Galaxy mirror is no longer maintained.

McCain pulling in political stars
By David Jackson, USA TODAY
Republican front-runner John McCain picked up the endorsement of actor-turned-governor Arnold Schwarzenegger on Thursday and predicted the backing of more political stars are on the way.
"You will see a flood of endorsements across this country from both liberals and conservatives," McCain said.
POLITICS BLOG: McCain, Schwarzenegger and Giuliani
The California governor joins Florida Gov. Charlie Crist and former presidential contender Rudy Giuliani, who dropped out of the race Wednesday, on the list of big-name Republicans to back McCain in recent days. The Arizona senator is trying to take command of the GOP race during the contests being held from California to New York on Tuesday.
Some analysts say endorsements help in individual states, but may be more valuable in creating a sense of inevitability. "It just greases the axles of the bandwagon," said John Pitney, a former House GOP aide who now teaches at Claremont McKenna College near Los Angeles. "People want to be with a winner."
Mitt Romney, who is chasing McCain for the nomination, played down Schwarzenegger's support. "Their views are similar on a number of subjects," he said.
In addition to lauding his "incredible credentials in national security," Schwarzenegger praised McCain for his efforts to "end wasteful spending."
He also cited McCain's environmental policies during an event at a company that makes solar-paneled roofing. McCain has been a vocal supporter of a plan that would cap greenhouse gas emissions and allow companies to trade emission allowances, known as "cap and trade." The senator wants such a program to be mandatory.
Schwarzenegger also lauded McCain for being able to work with Democrats to get things accomplished. Some conservatives say McCain has been too cozy with Democrats, and has adopted their positions on the environment, immigration and other issues.
"He's spent a decade now essentially dissing conservatives," said David Keene, chairman of the American Conservative Union.
McCain said he has support across the spectrum, including independents who will be key in the fall. He noted that he also picked up an endorsement Thursday from conservative Texas Gov. Rick Perry, a former Giuliani backer.
"We need all parts of our party together if we're going to win in November," McCain said. "Our party is beginning to realize that."

Facebook will pay $16 billion for the messaging application WhatsApp, the social network giant announced on Wednesday.
"Our mission is to make the world more open and connected. We do this by building services that help people share any type of content with any group of people they want," Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook's founder and chief executive, said in a Facebook post shortly after the purchase was announced.
"WhatsApp will help us do this by continuing to develop a service that people around the world love to use every day."
WhatsApp is a nearly five-year-old service that allows users to send texts, images or other messages without having to pay for SMS charges. Instead, users pay a yearly fee of 99 cents.
More than 450 million people use it each month, about 70 percent of whom are active on the service on any given day. More than 1 million people sign up every day.
In a release announcing the purchase, Facebook compared the acquisition to its 2012 purchase of Instagram, the picture-sharing service. The Menlo Park, Calif., company said that WhatsApp's employees will be able to focus on its own growth while taking advantage of the social network's vast resources. The app will also retain its own brand, independent of Facebook.
"WhatsApp's extremely high user engagement and rapid growth are driven by the simple, powerful and instantaneous messaging capabilities we provide," WhatsApp's co-founder and chief executive Jan Koum said in a statement.
"We're excited and honored to partner with Mark and Facebook as we continue to bring our product to more people around the world."
Koum is a former employee of Yahoo, and will join Facebook's board of directors under the terms of the agreement.

Accidents Can Happen… Removing Stains from Your Concrete Driveway
As the title says, sometimes accidents are unavoidable. Spillages will happen, or your automobile will leak, and suddenly you've got a puddle of something-or-other to deal with. Concrete driveways are hard-wearing, especially once they've been sealed, but they can still be affected by some compounds. This can lead to cosmetic discolouration.
The first thing to do if you notice a stain or spill is to mop it up. Absorb any liquid – oil from a leaking vehicle, for example – with rags or something similar. Make sure you don't scrub at the stain, as this might cause it to spread.
After you've removed of any liquid sitting on the surface, you can cover the affected area with sawdust, talcum powder, cat litter, or another granular substance. Anything which has small particles and is absorbent should do the trick. Leave it for while, and it should become discoloured as it draws the liquid out of the concrete.
You'll want to reapply your absorbent of choice until it stops being discoloured; this indicates that it's sucked up as much as possible. After that, you can brush down the surface of the concrete and give it a wash with soap and water.
If the stain is still present, or you're dealing with a more persistent stain like one caused by contact with rusting metal, there are a number of acidic cleaning products available. You should always test a cleaning or stain-removing product on a small patch of concrete first. This is because there's a slight risk of these products themselves causing discolouration.
Most stains can be completely dealt with, provided you get to work on them reasonably quickly. Sometimes, however, the stain will be impossible to remove entirely. In cases like these you can consider removing the affected area and patching it with fresh concrete. Once this new concrete patch has set and cured, it'll be a slightly different colour compared to the concrete surrounding it.

Salman Khan kept praising Kashmir's beauty on Twitter on Tuesday. The actor has been shooting in the Valley for 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan'.
Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif
In one of his tweets he stated, "KASHMIR bahut AMEER in natural beauty... Maashallah Maashallah."
He then added, "Maashallah Maashallah se yaad aya Katrina Kaif bhi Kashmir se hai."
Salman's reference to Katrina may be from the song, 'Mashallah Mashallah', from their film 'Ek Tha Tiger' (2012), but for Kat Kashmir denotes painful memories of her father — a Kashmiri whom she never saw after he left the family.
