South West cycling advocates network-building workshop
Are you campaigning for cycling in the South West and want to find out how to translate your ideas into reality? If so, join us at our cycling advocates' network-building workshop in Plymouth on 15 March.
Plymouth Council is delighted to host a day of cycling workshops at the Guildhall, Plymouth on the 15th March. The first event of its kind is set to examine the provision of cycling across the South West and how cycle campaign networks can grow to support and encourage local authorities to implement and fund cycle provision for all. The implication of the 'Get Britain Cycling' report recommendations is emphasised by David Cameron, as No.10 calls for local authorities and the Highway Authorities to cycle-proof the UK's roads. Discover how this can help underpin calls to action by cycle campaigners across the South West.
Our conference will feature a range of local authority figures and cycle experts, case studies, workshops and panel discussions, to explore the ways in which cycling can become a safe, natural and entirely normal option for day-to-day travel and recreation, for people of all ages, backgrounds and abilities, as part of a wider vision for healthier streets and liveable communities.
It features a keynote speech from CTC's Campaigns & Policy Director Roger Geffen on the national 'Space for Cycling' campaign, which CTC is co-ordinating in partnership with the London Cycling Campaign and local Cyclenation campaign groups. Other speakers include key players in cycling from around the South West. They include Jim Woffenden (Plymouth City Council's Snr Transport Planner / Sustrans Project Manager), Brett Nicolle (CTC Cycle Development Officer), Zsolt Schuller (Devon County Council's Strategic Sustainable Travel Officer), Michael Evans (Dorset Cyclists' Network) and Bill Nicholson, (Plymouth Cycle Campaign representative).
The morning is about sharing best practice on cycle-friendly planning and design, and the promotion of off-road cycle access. In the afternoon, we will talk about how we can most effectively work together to campaign in the SW for improved cycling conditions and access opportunities for all.
Key themes to be covered and benefits of attending
- Hear a national perspective on cycle campaigning, what it means for local campaign groups and how they can influence their local authorities, and how the new national 'Space for Cycling' campaign might work for you.
- Exchange local perspectives on opportunities to promote cycling and how local authorities are responding to them
- Discuss off-road access in the South West, with a view to building a regional network of off-road campaigners for off-road cycle access.
- Explore ways in which safety can be improved on the A30 and in other on-road schemes through cycle-proofed infrastructure
- Understand how you can build county wide networks to engage and influence local authorities at all levels to improve cycle provision.
- Learn from successful case studies that have worked to improve cycle campaigning, funding, infrastructure and attracted a mix of public local authority attention.
- Take advantage of the extensive opportunities for audience contributions throughout the day - particularly during the "Panel Discussions", and the morning and afternoon sessions around local engagement, on and off-road planning and design and building effective campaigning networks.
- You can access more detailed Views & Briefings here on the themes which will be covered.

News Release
Media Contact: TPWD News, email@example.com, 512-389-8030
Dec. 6, 2004
Update — Dec. 28, 2004: The stocking of 4,429 trout below Canyon Dam on the Guadalupe River Dec. 29, 2004, is postponed because of dangerously high water. Flow is currently 1,600 cubic feet per second. Trout will be stocked the morning of Dec. 31, 2004, when flow, according to the Guadalupe-Blanco River Authority, will be reduced to 900 cubic feet per second. Normal stocking locations will be used.Update — Dec. 8, 2004: The trout stocking for the Canyon Tailrace, scheduled for Dec. 17, is rescheduled for Jan. 21, 2005, because of high releases from Canyon Reservoir.
Rains Delay Trout Stocking in Guadalupe River
AUSTIN, Texas – The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department is delaying the stocking of rainbow trout in the Canyon Tailrace along the Guadalupe River until at least mid-December, due to high water flow.
The stocking site is among the most popular of the 100-plus Texas water bodies that annually receive hatchery-raised rainbow trout during the department's winter trout stocking effort. Tentatively, Canyon Tailrace is scheduled to receive its first shipment of trout on Dec. 17, according to Todd Engeling, TPWD hatchery program director.
TPWD has been stocking rainbow trout in small urban lakes, state park lakes and popular river tailraces each winter since the 1970s, providing Texans a simple and economical opportunity to go fishing. The success of the program is evident by the participation level.
"It's not uncommon to find 50 to 75 people at the stocking site along the Guadalupe River below Canyon Dam waiting for the truck," Engeling said. "A lot of folks print out the list of stocking dates and tack it up on the fridge or bulletin board, but it's important to remember to check our Web page before making plans because the dates do change. The online schedule is updated constantly and is the most accurate schedule."
Engeling said in most cases the truck will be at the delivery site by noon, depending on how far it needs to travel. The posted dates are the days the trout are available to the general public. Many sites offer special events for youth prior to allowing the public to fish, and those are usually the day before. On this matter, folks should check with local parks and recreation departments or water authorities for additional information.
While most sites get an annual dose of between 1,000-2,000 trout, popular fishing holes like the Canyon Tailrace receive multiple stockings from December through March. As the only fishable place in Texas where rainbow trout can survive during the summer months, the Canyon Tailrace will get about 18,000 fish.
For the same reason, special regulations have been implemented along a 10-mile stretch of the Guadalupe River below the tailrace. For additional details about the special harvest regulations and the location of that river stretch, please consult the Outdoor Annual Guide. The special regulations are not in effect in the area immediately below Canyon Lake Dam. There, as in other Texas waters, the daily bag limit is five trout and there is no minimum length.
And for the first time in many years, Texas anglers do not need a special trout fishing stamp in order to fish, however a freshwater fishing package is required. Youth ages 16 and younger and anyone fishing from the bank in state parks are exempt from the fishing package requirement.
Catching these hungry fish can be easy, making the experience ideal for both newcomers to fishing and to kids, according to Engeling. "The fish will bite almost immediately after stocking and typically will take a variety of baits, from corn or soft bait to flies and even small spinnerbaits. You can have success with anything you cast at them, which makes them attractive to use for youth fishing events."

A HOSPICE supporting people in Worcestershire has launched an appeal to raise £100,000.
Primrose Hospice in St Godwald's Road, Bromsgrove, has launched the Around the World for 80 Days of Care at Primrose Hospice appeal in a bid to raise cash to fund its services providing free care, advice and support to patients living with life-limiting illnesses and their families in north-east Worcestershire.
The hospice currently costs £1.6 million a year to run and it is hoped £100,000 will be enough to fund its care services for 80 days.
Chief executive officer Helen Garfield said: "Only one fifth of the funding we need comes from our colleagues in Health and we rely on local people to help us raise over £1.2 million every year.
"More and more people need our support but in these financially challenging times we desperately want to avoid having to turn people away."
To donate to the appeal call 01527 889 796, visit www.primrosehospice.org/bigappeal or text PHBA01 followed by £12, £26 or £56 to 70070.
Cheques made out to Primrose Hospice can be sent to BIG Appeal, Primrose Hospice, St Godwald's Road, Bromsgrove, B60 3BW and cash can be dropped off at the hospice or any of its six shops in Droitwich, Bromsgrove, Studley, Rubery, Headless Cross or Redditch.

Apple to Ship Updated A1428 iPhone 5 With AWS WCDMA Enabled for T-Mobile USAby Brian Klug on 3/26/2013 6:26 PM EST

RyanM - Tuesday, March 26, 2013 - linkIf Apple manages to force the carriers to compete on features and price of the their services and stop the subsidy loansharking, they'll deserve a massive pat on the back. Reply
jeffkibuule - Tuesday, March 26, 2013 - linkWhy would they? Apple benefits immensely from subsidies, as an end user pays the same amount as they would for any other phone, but they charge the carrier $100 more (iPhone 5 16GB unsubsidized - $649, Galaxy S III 16GB unsubsidized - $549) Reply
gonzopancho - Tuesday, March 26, 2013 - linkOn T-Mobile, the iPhone 5 16GB is $580, while the Galaxy S III 16GB is $600. Reply
darwinosx - Friday, March 29, 2013 - linkI don't know where you get your numbers phone but Samsung devices are as much or more than Apple's. The S3 just went down slightly in a few cases because the S4 was announced. Reply
Bob Todd - Tuesday, March 26, 2013 - link"If T-Mobile manages to force the carriers to compete on features and price of the their services and stop the subsidy loansharking, they'll deserve a massive pat on the back."
I fixed that for you. Not sure how you were crediting T-Mobile's strategy to Apple. It's part of their whole "uncarrier" effort, and doesn't revolve solely around the iPhone 5 or any single device from Apple or anyone else. I hope it works and we get similar contract free offerings from the big 3, but Apple hasn't exactly been breaking the mold here for the last 5 years with AT&T/Verizon/Sprint. Reply
gonzopancho - Tuesday, March 26, 2013 - linkYou seem to have missed the part where the same iPhone model will be available for both AT&T and T-Mobile. Reply
Bob Todd - Wednesday, March 27, 2013 - linkYou seemed to have missed the part where that has no relevance to breaking the subsidy stranglehold the big carriers have on America. I'm fully aware that it will be the same phone, and I'm fully aware that the hardware is the same as the old (AT&T) phone. Why would Apple make multiple models with radios that support the same bands? If they could have made one model that supported every band they needed across the globe they would have. That doesn't have anything to do with Apple (not) paving the way for the end of highly subsidized contracts here. Apple is not a carrier. And Apple has never stipulated to AT&T/Verizon/Sprint that in order to sell the iPhone they had to offer contract free pricing. If you want to point a finger at someone in the same space that has actually made real attempts to disrupt the subsidy model here it is Google with the cheap unlocked Nexus line, not that the exercise has been enormously successful so far. Reply
darwinosx - Friday, March 29, 2013 - linkEveryone benefits from subsidizing. But lets pretend like its only Apple because you have an Android phone. Loansharking..right. Reply
jeffkibuule - Tuesday, March 26, 2013 - linkA real shame about the lack of AWS WCDMA. Oh well. Hopefully AWS LTE will still work with the current A1428 models. Reply
Bob Todd - Tuesday, March 26, 2013 - linkIt will. The short version of the difference is that the new model supports HSPA+ 42Mbps (on 1700MHz), but the old one will cap out at HSPA+ 21Mbps (on 1900MHz). Both new and old will support LTE. Reply
guju - Thursday, March 28, 2013 - linkAre you certain...? I was told by an Apple 800# rep via chat that the old A1428 will support HSPA+14.4 and not T-Mobile's faster HSPA+42...
There still may be confusion. For those with unlocked AT&T iPhone 4 & 4S that want to churn for the cheaper $50/mo unlimited 3G/throttled LTE on T-Mobile, it would be cool to know the full answer. ;) Reply
Bob Todd - Friday, March 29, 2013 - linkYup, and that's how it's been reported everywhere after the dust settled. TMO has single carrier 21Mbps on PCS which the AT&T iPhone 5 can use. Their dual carrier (42Mbps) is all AWS, which is what's not going to work unless they change their mind and offer a firmware update. I imagine some creative folks will come up with a way around the lack of an official baseband update though. Reply
Brian Klug - Wednesday, March 27, 2013 - linkAWS LTE will work on both Old and New A1428 models as soon as Apple begins exposing the TMOUS LTE .ipcc
-Brian Reply
IHateMyJob2004 - Tuesday, March 26, 2013 - linkWhere is the front page Blackberrry Z10 review? Reply
gonzopancho - Tuesday, March 26, 2013 - linkin my pants Reply
darwinosx - Friday, March 29, 2013 - linkYeah there are at least 3 people who care about a Z10 review. Maybe 2. Reply
r3loaded - Wednesday, March 27, 2013 - linkSo....is there a way to flash the updated baseband onto existing A1428 iPhones? Reply
Guspaz - Wednesday, March 27, 2013 - linkThis is particularly relevant in Canada, where adding support for AWS spectrum will bring the iPhone to at least three carriers, two of them national new-entrants (recently entered the market, WIND and Mobilicity), and one of them a regional incumbent cableco (Videotron). Getting the iPhone to these new carriers has the potential to shake up the market, since the lack of an iPhone has certainly not been helping the new carriers compete against the incumbents. Reply
coldpower27 - Wednesday, March 27, 2013 - linkYeah, i was wondering if this would enable WIND/Mobilicity to start carrying the iPhone, as that was one of things that has kept me from going to the new cheaper carriers. :S Reply
nrm590 - Wednesday, March 27, 2013 - linkI am curious to know if Apple will update unlocked iPhones with the new firmware.
I bought an unlocked iPhone 5 in December for use on T-Mobile. I am not that interested in LTE, I just want to maintain a solid 3G connection. T-Mobile's 1900 MHz update has been great, when I have it but it is very annoying to fall back on EDGE. Reply
bh661 - Wednesday, March 27, 2013 - linkSame here. I hope Apple comes out with an update for current A1428 users. If not, hope it's something the dev community can provide a fix for. Reply
hfm - Wednesday, March 27, 2013 - linkI agree. If it's not even a hardware change just software, why can't I get it on the 32GB iPhone 5 I bought unlocked at an Apple store + AppleCare for $900?! I mean COME ON! That's horrible customer service. When the new version ships I'm going to go to the Apple store and demand the software update or ask for an exchange for a new model 32GB phone that will have software to take advantage of the carrier I am using.
I just don't get it. Reply
darwinosx - Friday, March 29, 2013 - linkThats because you didn't read and comprehend the article. Reply
Brian Klug - Wednesday, March 27, 2013 - linkApple has stated there will be no software update for existing users to enable AWS WCDMA.
-Brian Reply
nrm590 - Thursday, March 28, 2013 - linkThank you Brian, not the answer I wanted to hear but T-Mobile has been moving rather quickly with the 1900 MHz upgrade. I really have no choice but deal with it. I will however be sure to voice my displeasure over this matter to Apple. Reply
darwinosx - Friday, March 29, 2013 - linkBecause that won't fix the issue. Reply
KPOM - Thursday, March 28, 2013 - linkI'm guessing Apple and T-Mobile reached an agreement in which Apple would not release a firmware update enabling the DC-HSDPA AWS bands on the existing iPhone 5s. After all, Apple usually requires each carrier to purchase a minimum number of iPhones, and T-Mobile probably prefers that people coming to them buy new iPhones rather than take unlocked AT&T versions. Reply
Bob Todd - Thursday, March 28, 2013 - linkSeems doubtful. T-Mobile is quite happy to have you bring your AT&T iPhone over to their network. They just went through a huge refarming of their 1900MHz network to give AT&T expats 3G on their existing devices. They've openly bragged about how many iPhones they've had on their network for a while now, and those users were suffering with edge up until the refarm. Reply
KPOM - Thursday, March 28, 2013 - linkBut that was before they made a commitment to sell the iPhone. Now they have a quota, and as C-Spire found out, meeting it can be easier said than done. Reply
stencil - Monday, April 08, 2013 - linkLast week I traveled from Raleigh NC to Washington DC to Philly, PA. I have a gsm phone on the t-mobile network and never once had a 3g connection on the 1900mhz band. I stood on the Washington mall, right in front of the capital, I also ran to the top of the art museum steps in Philly (yeah, all Rocky-like) and all I ever got was EDGE. So much for their huge refarming effort. Reply
Amit kumar - Thursday, March 28, 2013 - linkTruthful I have belief in your review. The device wonderful, it is taller, leaner, lighter, and shinier packs in much more punch than ever. I got all statistics about this phone this site as well. http://www.gadtecho.com/ Reply

- Soul Eater Not! "Soul Eater K-ON!-ified":
No, this is pretty much spot on. The only big difference I see is that the anime doesn't do that peculiar 'ring-within-rings' eyes that the manga does. What few differences there are are minor and well within what can be expected when literally drawn by different people. Seems to me that most complaints are from those people that are going straight from Soul Eater to this, without reading the manga, and expecting it to be the same. There IS a reason it's called Soul Eater NOT!, after all.
- Noragami Slime Molestation Anime:
Here's a thought. Mayu (the pipe), back when she was called Tomone (the dagger), complained about Yato's sweaty palms and ultimately left him over his loser status. Now as Mayu, she seems quite satisfied to turn into a pipe. If her complaints about Yato's palms was justified, what does it say about her being smoked?

It's ballistic. Do you know what that means? It means it has no way to significantly correct it's course once launched. It's fuel is gone, and it's control surfaces are not large enough to do much more than keep it's warhead pointed at the ground. It MIGHT be able to make a correction of a dozen meters or so, but that's about it. Anything more extreme would probably send the warhead tumbling erratically.

GUISELEY manager Mark Bower has praised goalkeeper Steve Drench and midfielder Gavin Rothery after they were named in the Skrill Conference North's team of the year.
In fact, Drench has been named in the elite 11 so often that he has forgotten how many.
He tweeted, with a reference to their continual play-off heartbreak: "Just been informed it's 4th not 3rd year for me in the team of the year. Swap all four for a promotion."
Bower, who laughed at Drench's memory loss, added: "He is consistently an excellent goalkeeper and, although he is not the tallest, he comes out for crosses and commands his area.
"But it also his kick outs and the way he picks out a colleague that is so impressive. His award is well deserved."
Bower added: "The same applies to Gavin, who just got stronger and stronger as the season went on."
Guiseley might have suffered another end-of-season anti-climax but they did pick up one club gong - the Conference North's Respect Award.
This all-embracing honour came as a result of the efforts of players, management, volunteers and fans.
Guiseley chairman Phil Rogerson said: "It is all to do with the number of volunteers we have at the club, the FA's Respect campaign and how we make match-day a welcoming experience for all, even down to things like the handshakes before the kick-off."
The Lions have also announced that their season-ticket prices and match-day charges for 2014-15 will be unchanged.
Early-bird prices, which are applicable up to June 30, are £380 for a family ticket (two adults, two under-12s), £190 for an adult, £110 for concessions and £65 for 12-16 year olds, with under-12s (as of August 9, 2014) free if they are accompanied by an adult.
This means that, providing the early-bird option is taken, an adult can watch all the pre-season and league matches for under £8 per game.
The fees include all pre-season friendlies and Academy fixtures, but not cup matches, while guaranteed match-day programmes means each price will rise by £45. After June 30, the respective amounts go up to £400, £205, £120 and £70.
Completed season-ticket application forms should be sent to Guiseley AFC, c/o 8 Viewlands Crescent, Menston, Ilkley, LS29 6BH or by e-mail to email@example.com.
Rogerson added: "We think our season-ticket prices again represent excellent value, especially given the way that we play football and the quality of our pitch.
"The pitch is now level to within an inch both longways and crossways, and it is amazing how about a foot has been taken off the surface in front of the sponsors' stand.
"The weather has been warm and wet, and you can already see the green shoots of recovery!"
Skrill North Team of the Year: Steve Drench (Guiseley AFC), Simon Grand (AFC Telford United), Carl Piergianni (Boston United), Darren Campion (Hednesford Town), Adam Griffin (Altrincham), Nicky Clee (Altrincham), Shaun Densmore (Altrincham), Gavin Rothery (Guiseley AFC), James Walshaw (Altrincham), Anthony Wilson (North Ferriby United), Ricky Miller (Boston United)
Chester FC have signed 31-year-old former Bradford and Guiseley goalkeeper Jon Worsnop from Conference Premier side Alfreton Town.
Worsnop is no stranger to Chester fans, having been the understudy to Wayne Brown in the days of Chester City.
The experienced keeper joined Chester City from the Bantams in 2002, spending three years there.
More recently he was at Leigh Genesis, before signing for Alfreton last December.
Worsnop has also represented Bradford Park Avenue, Aberystwyth Town, Droylsden, Witton Albion, Ossett Town, Worksop Town. and FC United of Manchester.

ORLANDO, Fla. - Florida Gov. Rick Scott on Monday announced that $213 million from the state will help build an intermodal station at Orlando International Airport, which will also be expanded.
"It's going to be good for jobs, good if you come here as a tourist," Scott said. "It's going to help build the economy."
Half of the state's funding for the project will be included in the current budget cycle, which the Legislature begins debating on March 4. The other half of the money would be included in budget proposals if Scott is re-elected in November.
Local 6 reached out to challenger Charlie Crist to see if he would support including the money in his budgets if elected. Crist has yet to respond.
The intermodel station was first announced as a concept in October as part of $1.1 billion in expansion projects by the Greater Orlando Aviation Authority.
The first phase of projects will include a 2,400-spot parking garage, additional passenger check-in facilities, space for ground transportation and a station for the proposed All Aboard commuter train linking Orlando to Miami.
Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer and Orange County Mayor Teresa Jacobs said they're hopeful the new facility will help them secure federal money for the expansion of Sun Rail to the airport.
"We want the federal government to fund Phase 2," Jacobs told Local 6. "The connection to the airport is crucial."
"Gov. Scott's support of the Orlando International Airport intermodal center will help our region enter the next century of transportation," U.S. Rep. John Mica-Winter Park, Fla. said. "This facility will bring all modes of passenger transport together and is the key link to successfully connecting air travel, commuter rail, high-speed rail, surface transportation and future transportation systems together."
The project is expected to generate 1,900 construction jobs and approximately 400 permanent jobs.
Currently, about 35 million passengers fly in and out of OIA annually.

A play written and performed by three Malvern schoolgirls has been given the royal seal of approval.
The Prince of Wales's office wrote to the Malvern St James Girls' School pupils after they sent him pictures and a programme from their play.
The letter said Prince Charles was unable to reply personally but had asked an aide to pass on his thanks for sharing their project with him and to tell the girls he was very interested to hear about it.
The pupils Jessica Gregg, Caitlin Walters and Saskia Osterloff decided to write to the Prince after he unveiled a memorial to the special operations executive women at RAF Tempsford recently.
Their play, called The Women That Time Forgot, was inspired by the lives and bravery of three special operations executive women who were trained in parachuting, unarmed combat, self-defence and clandestine radio operations during World War Two and went on to work with the French Resistance.
The play formed part of their A level course in Drama and Theatre Studies and the letter from Prince Charles praised the girls for putting in "a great deal of effort."
Patricia Woodhouse, headmistress of Malvern St James Girls' School, said: "Jessica, Caitlin and Saskia wowed us with their very professional production of 'The Women That Time Forgot'.
"It was in turns poignant, uplifting, melancholic, and even humorous.
"The girls showed their ability to play a variety of roles and ages, and communicate the bravery and depth of personality of these extraordinary women."

PRECIOUS items once owned by Don Bradman are headed for India after an auction on Saturday failed to capture local interest, including from the Bradman Museum.
The items, among which were Bradman's 1946 baggy green cap and the bat he used to score 234 in a world record fifth-wicket, 405-run partnership with Sid Barnes - who also scored 234 - were sold to the foreign buyer at bargain prices.
''It's very disappointing that the top items, including three match-used bats and a Test cap, received absolutely zero interest from our local Bradman Museum, to the point where they couldn't even be bothered coming over to view bats that had never been documented or to see items of historic importance,'' said Tom Thompson, of Ravenswick Auctions.
The 1946 bat was expected to attract up to $120,000 but was sold to the buyer at $65,000.
The baggy green cap was expected to fetch up to $180,000 but sold for $100,000.
Other items included a bat used by Bradman on a tour of Canada and the US - known as the ''Honeymoon Tour'' as it followed soon after his marriage to Jessie Menzies - that was expected to attract about $15,000 but sold for $8000.
A bat Bradman used for New South Wales and South Australia went for $10,000, about half what was expected.
''The disappointment is that there weren't enough people here and the so-called institution, the Bradman Museum, failed to even sight the things let alone engage with them,'' Thompson said.
''They were looking to acquire these items about four months ago and had the whole lot valued at under $1 million by independent valuers. They were serious about it then but they're not serious about it when it comes to the party, at effectively lower prices.''
Bradman Foundation executive director Rina Hore said that representatives of the museum (now known as the International Cricket Hall of Fame) had viewed the items from the collection of collector Chris Moyle in June.
But independent valuation had priced the key pieces beyond the museum's reach.
''I'm not quite sure why [Thompson] is disappointed. I'm not quite sure why he expected that we'd turn up,'' Hore said.
''Would we like a benefactor to have bought them and given them to the museum? Of course we would. But we just felt that when they were offered to us we weren't in a position to secure them.
''It is unfortunate that items like these go out of the country.
''But there are fabulous collectors and benefactors here who have purchased items and lent them to the museum to make sure we keep a good part of this history in the country.''

Forums: Index > Help Desk archive > Voldemort and Occluimency
In the half-blood prince, voldemort practices occlumency against harry so he cant see into his mind, also stopping the pain in harrys scar. but in deathly hallows, harrys scar hurts and he sees into voldemorts mind. why does that happen? does this mean voldemort stopped using occlumency against harry in deathly hallows?
Yes, J.K. Rowling said in an interview that Voldemort is loosing control in the final book. He isn't using occlumency anymore because he is too occupied searching for the Elder Wand, that's why the dreams and the visions are back, along with the pain.Marianne mione 10:01, July 29, 2011 (UTC)

My clients tells me that when he views his web page online, the pages appear different than when he views copies of the same files offline, even when using the very same PC and browser.My client does the day-to-day updating of his web pages, working with offline copies of the html pages (using CoffeeCup Free HTML Editor) (he NEVER touches the CSS sheet). He then uploads the amended files using CoreFTP Lite. Once or twice a year, I (using a different PC) make bigger changes (CSS, DIV'S etc.) by downloading the online files (again using CoreFTP), making the required changes, and uploading them with CoreFTP. My client then downloads these files from online, to his server's hard drive, ready for him to make the day-to-day changes, and upload them again.Now, whilst I fully appreciate that in web design there are issues about browser compatibility, what I don't appreciate is that when my client views the web pages online (the 'live' version), and then compares them to the same (offline) pages that he's just double-clicked on his server PC, there are differences, the biggest being that the navigation panel, positioned at the right online, appears over at the left in his offline versions of the files.Perhaps I need to add that a)I myself do not see any difference between my copies of the offline files and the ones online, and b)both he and I have cleared our browser's cache out, many times.Bob
Hi Bob. Welcome to the forums.
Before anything else, I'll just quietly suggest that it sounds like you need a CMS, so that the client doesn't have to edit files/templates etc. Or perhaps you'd even like to consider a version control system? (Admittedly, that's over my head ... but just saying. )
Anyhow, that said, it does sound odd. Is he using a different browser in each situation?
Is he happy with the online versions? If so, another option is for him to have an online test page where the changes are first made. Then, when all's well, those changes can be made live.
Hi Ralph, thanks for the reply. The strangest thing is that he is using the same PC, with the same browser (IE9). When he views online it's OK, i.e, as I see it myself and as how I'd like it to look, but when he double-click's the offline versions, the navigation is in the wrong place. To add to this, he has two colleagues who also do the daily editing - they too view it wrong, even when using their own PC with just their one browser. I have spent two hours searching the Internet for other people having the same problem and have only been able to find two other people: one replying to the other, and that was back in 2001!I think a CMS would be a bit late now, I'm afraid (they don't like change!).Bob
One thing you could do is look "under the hood" at the page while on the desktop and see if there's a difference in the styles that apply there as opposed to those that apply online. Could it be that not all of the styles that are online are also on the client's desktop?
Also, get the client to try the pages in another browser like Chrome and see if the same thing happens.
Hi Ralph, I got my client to open up both the stylesheet file and also the index.html file that are stored on his PC in notepad, copy and paste the contents into two separate emails, and send them to me (I thought it best not to ask them to send the files as attachments, incase, well, I dunno, just in case! The textual content of both of the files are exactly the same as a)the textual content of the live files out on the the internet, and b)identical to the ones that I have stored on my PC.This has been going on for a few days now, i.e, I have spent a few hours over the last few days, trying this and trying that. They have tried a couple of different browsers between them (two different versions of IE, and FireFox), and they have been having similar problems. To repeat: The strangest thing is how can the pages look different online as opposed to offline, when the PC and browser viewing them is the same! Very strange!bob
Can you provide us with a link to the site, and ideally, screenshots comparing his offline vs online views?
Sometimes server residence makes a difference.
That sounds interesting, thank you. Whilst I get this organised, can you please explain a little more about 'server residence' for me please? If it's any use: My client sits at his desk and views the pages online fine (I know who the hosting company are); he double-clicks the local files that are stored not strictly on his own PC, but stored on a Windows 2003 Server, on his local LAN, and these display different. Cheers, Bob.
Hi again Ronpat,An example of one of the pages of the live, online website is: http://www.bandltd.org.uk/training_programme.html
The following two images were snapped (of the same particular page) by my client three days ago, and show the online version, with the navigation bar correctly over at the right, and my clients local version (same html file, same css file), with the navigation bar incorrectly over at the left, as viewed from his PC with the same browser. Please note that the version that you see live today will be slightly different, as I've made a couple of subtle changes since three days ago (in an attempt to fix the problem - but sadly he is still viewing it similar to the following images):
Thanks, bob
IE is being your friend and letting us know there is a fundamental problem with the page layout. Will post some recommendations after a lunch break.
These changes should fix the IE problem and produce a page with less interaction between elements.
On training_programme1.html, add a new div#banner around line 20-21.

Bristol Association for
Neighbourhood Daycare

Move the
 from before
 (line ~298) to just above the  tag at the bottom of the page.
On training_programme1.css
h1, .banner-band {
font-family:"times new roman", serif;
padding-top:5px; /* added */
margin:0px; /* changed. position with padding instead. (negative margins (esp. vertical) often used to compensate for problems elsewhere; in turn cause more problems.) */
#main-container {
/* background-color:#fff; /* background-color for entire page */
width:904px; /* height was removed */
color: inherit;
overflow:hidden; /* added */
margin:0 auto;
#banner { /* this is a new div */
width:900px; /* allows 4px for border */
#main-content {
background-color:#fff; /* background-color for main-content only */
width:704px; /* main-content + padding + navigation widths cannot exceed 904px */
margin:0px; /* changed. (negative margin-left not a good idea. change padding-left instead) */
.navigation {
background-color:#fff; /* background-color for navigation only */
float:left; /* consider float:right */
Comments:(1) You may want to tweak the text spacing in a place or two. Suggest that you avoid using negative vertical margins when more appropriate methods are available.(2) There should really be only 1
 tag on a page.(3) Why not change
 to
 ? Google will be happier. Then change both current
 tags to
, the
s to
, etc.(4) Avoid using
 tags to provide margins over and under images, such as the Band box. Margin the boxes directly instead.
Wow! Ronpat - that looks really interesting - thanks ever so much for going to all that trouble. It's 23:00 hours here in the UK at the moment, so I won't be able to check your suggestions over until tomorrow. But I'll do that and get back to you asap. Many thanks for all your help once more, Bob.
Hi again Ronpat. I've made the changes to the CSS, and have also made the html changes to all thirty-plus pages, and it's all looking absolutley terrific when I view them in the last six versions of IE, Chrome, Firefox and Safari at browsershots.org (although the ancient IE6 doesn't have a left-hand margin, but who cares!). I'm really, really grateful for your assistance with this. I'm now waiting for my client to test them out when they return to work on Monday, but I'm very confident that you've fixed this for me. Thank you ever so much, once again. Bob.
Thanks very much for the feedback, bobg. Glad to hear it's working so well. The changes, html especially, were very fundamental and well worth the effort. Should your client have devised yet another unforseen way to "break" the layout, it should be easily managed in css <smile>. Best of luck.
Hi Ronpat, just to let you know that my client has checked everything over and informs me that everything is now hunky dory! Many thanks for you help once more - it's got me out of a fix! Bob.
Thank you for taking the time to post the followup about your client's results. Am very glad to hear the repairs are working so well. That makes the effort worthwhile.

Saint Leo, Fla. ( March 16, 2007) – The Saint Leo University softball team (17-11) got a no-hitter from starter Ashley Urbanik (So., Riverview, Fla.) in game one and swept a doubleheader with visiting Albany State University (8-15) on Friday evening at University Field.
The Lions won game one 9-0 in five innings before wrapping up the sweep with a 4-0 win in game two. Saint Leo's win streak now stands at nine games after the Lions' fourth straight doubleheader sweep.
Urbanik issued just one walk in the contest, as she struck out seven and improved to 11-6 for the year. Kiki VonHolt (Jr., New Port Richey, Fla.) then followed with a two-hit shutout of her own to improve to 6-5.
Both Urabnik and Hayley Mallory (Sr., Plant City, Fla.) went a combined 3-for-6 at the plate, while Ali Flynn (Sr., Miami, Fla.) knocked in a team-high three runs and was 2-for-6.
Saint Leo had an eight-run first to give Urbanik all the run support she would need in game one, as the Lions batted around the order in the opening inning of the game. SLU then added another run in the fourth to provide the final margin.
In game two, the Lions plated single runs in the second, fourth, fifth and sixth innings to pull off the sweep. Four different players registered an RBI, and VonHolt struck out eight for the win.
The Lions will host Augustana College on Monday at 5:00 p.m. in another home doubleheader.

AN alleged burglar has refused to leave HMP Hewell, between Redditch and Bromsgrove, to appear in court unless he is transported in a minibus rather than a custody van.
Jason Macleod, aged 36, is said to suffer from 'an exaggerated form of claustrophobia' and cannot stand the thought of being locked in a tiny cell in one of the usual prison transport vans.
He refused to get on a van at HMP Hewell on Wednesday, August 20, and again, two days later, when his case was re-listed before Gloucester crown court.
It had been planned that a specialist minibus style vehicle would be sent to collect him on the rescheduled date but one was not available and an ordinary van arrived.
One court insider said "He said he would not come to court because of the claustrophobia but also because he wouldn't get a good lunch here. He wanted to stay in his cell and have a prison lunch as usual."
Because of Macleod's repeated refused to travel in prison transport arrangements will now be made for him to face the court via video link from the prison for future appearances.
Macleod, of Clyde Road, Brockworth, and co-defendant Jason Sparrow, also 36, of Warley Road, Blackpool, are charged with conspiring to burgle in Gloucestershire in January and February this year.
Sparrow, who is on bail, did attend the hearing on Friday and wanted to enter his plea to the charge but was told by Recorder Nicholas Atkinson that would not be right in Macleod's absence.
The Recorder granted bail pending the next hearing but said he would not have to attend and he could enter his plea just before the trial is about to start.
At the last hearing on Wednesday, Macleod's solicitor Matthew Harbinson told the court: "He suffers from some form of post traumatic stress disorder or syndrome and has an exaggerated form of claustrophobia.
"When he was being accompanied from his cell today he asked about the nature of the transport and said 'I'm not going to be transported in that'."

Washington, D.C. -- The National Retail Federation has announced its support of a tentative bipartisan agreement that would temporarily extend Bush-era tax cuts for all taxpayers regardless of income in return for extending unemployment benefits.
"Failure to renew these tax cuts would result in a massive tax increase at a time when our nation's economy is still struggling to recover," said NRF president and CEO Matthew Shay. "Higher taxes would stand in the way of creating the jobs that are vital to achieving economic recovery and would threaten to plunge us back into the recession that many consumers aren't convinced is really over yet. Keeping current tax rates in place will allow retailers and other sectors of the economy to push forward with job creation. Adding a payroll tax cut to the mix will help with that effort while boosting consumer spending as well."
"While many disagree on whether the tax cuts should be extended for those seen as wealthy, we cannot afford to subject all taxpayers to an increase while that debate continues," Shay said. "Extending the cuts on a temporary basis is a prudent move that will allow our economy to regain stability while policymakers seek to settle that question. Many of the 'wealthy' taxpayers who will benefit from this agreement are small business owners whose business income is taxed as personal income and who are working every day to create jobs."
Shay urged Congress to adopt the agreement by the end of the month, noting that employers will be obligated to increase workers' tax withholdings beginning in January if legislation renewing the Bush cuts is not enacted by then.
NRF also welcomed a provision of the agreement that would set the federal estate tax rate at 35% on estates of $5 million and higher beginning in January. The estate tax was temporarily eliminated at the beginning of 2010 but returns to the Clinton-era level of 55% on estates of $1 million or more in January if Congress does not act. High estate taxes in the past have made it difficult for family-owned retail businesses to be passed from one generation to the next, according to NRF.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 30/7/2012 (1849 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
I think it's funny that I call the Free Press office on Mountain Avenue the "new" building.
I only spent a year in the "old" building and then a whopping 21 more out here in the North End. As a true Winnipegger, however, I tend to define things by what they once were.
Witness my favourite restaurant critic Marion Warhaft, who last week described the new Arkadash restaurant as the old Chocolate Shop site. (Ah, we all nodded sagely, so that's where it is.)
Filmmaker Guy Maddin understands this better than most Winnipeggers. This city gets into your bones somehow and landmarks are forever enshrined. Probably because -- like our now-famous Exchange District -- change comes slowly.
But you know, that's changing, too.
In the doldrums of the late 1990s, when building cranes were virtually extinct in Winnipeg, I heard Sandy Riley tell a pre-Pan Am Games crowd that he wanted his kids to see "Winnipeg with the lights on." We all did. And I look around the city these days and see all kinds of changes: the Canadian Museum for Human Rights, the waterfront by the ballpark, the new airport, the MTS Centre -- home of the Winnipeg Jets.
Manitoba has the second-fastest growing economy in the country, the Conference Board of Canada proclaimed last week. Mega projects like the new Bomber stadium and IKEA are going up.
The great gap between haves and have-nots prevails, but there's hope in a new task force to combat homelessness, along with accompanying social issues from affordable housing to mental health to child poverty.
Everyone agrees education is key to major social change, and I see our post-secondary institutions actively working to break down barriers to the disenfranchised.
This city is no longer a place your kids flee as soon as they come of age, as I did.
It's a city of possibilities, a city that is changing.
And change is inevitable.
The Free Press newsroom has undergone profound changes in my two decades.
I was lucky to start my career in what we now know as the golden age of print, the mid-1980s, when advertising and circulation peaked. The future was so bright, management built this shiny new building and hauled us out of the heart of the city in 1991. (Anybody want a 100,000-square-foot office building with great parking? Call publisher Bob Cox. We'd move back downtown in a heartbeat.)
I was lucky to work in an industry that I loved, with people who became family.
And we've done pretty well out here. In the past few years, I've been lucky to ride the coattails of a newsroom so full of talent it was recognized from Berlin to Miami, from Rideau Hall to Vancouver and back again. It's been a terrific 12 years in management, the last five as editor -- albeit a challenging time to helm a business that was so successful for so long, it never thought it had to change.
Change is healthy. Any good business knows this.
The Free Press is changing to acknowledge the reality that one day, virtually all of its audience might be digital readers, not newspaper readers.
We've moved from a 24-hour news cycle to a measured-in-minutes universe of tweets, live blogs and livestream video, webbies, slideshows, and, oh yes -- maybe an end-of-day newspaper column or story.
You won't find me longing for the good old days of print, however.
Today's digital universe is an incredibly rich medium, with so many ways to tell a story, so many possibilities. And it's our future.
Whether you read us on your tiny cellphone or your big-screen TV will be the next editor's concern. For now, all we know is that our online audience is growing by leaps and bounds.
And the news coming out of the newspaper industry these days is grim. The Calgary Herald just laid off 30 people in its newsroom alone -- a gut-wrenching one-third of its staff.
The once-mighty Southam-cum-Canwest-cum-Postmedia chain has been crippled by debt, declining ad revenues and some unfortunate business decisions. Caught in the maelstrom are colleagues in cities like Edmonton, Ottawa and Vancouver.
Here in Winnipeg? My joke has always been we're bucking the trend.
Yes, the Free Press faces the same challenges of declining newspaper circulation and declining national ad revenue. But we're independent, and have never had the crippling debt load of those teetering news franchises. We've also made some tough decisions over the past few years that have kept us buoyant, including cancelling delivery of the perennial money-losing Sunday paper several years ago.
Our local businesses, god love 'em, still choose to advertise with us. And the biggest reason for that? Readers like you. The Free Press has the highest per capita readership of any metropolitan daily in Canada, and we've held that spot for years.
Whenever I see that chart, with the Free Press on top of every other big newspaper in Canada, I am proud to live in a place with readers like Lucille Anderson or Norman E. Sanders, the people who call if their paper's not on their doorstep that morning, or if they don't like the angle of a story, or they are moved by a particularly beautiful photo. Readers who write pithy letters to the editor, pen profound op-eds, donate to the Sunshine Fund, share "random acts of kindness." It's readers like you that make the editor's job an honour and privilege, and one I will never forget.
Thanks for letting us try new things, like the Pink Paper and the Africa Edition. Thanks for calling, as one woman did last week, just to bark that Lindor Reynolds' column was "Right on... You let her know that!" (Done, ma'am.)
Thanks for sticking with us even when you felt we were becoming too left-wing, too right-wing, too biased/negative/too fluffy or just plain screwing around with your puzzle page.
Our slogan used to be "we're there for you."
Thanks for being there for us.
Last dispatch from the new building.
Margo Goodhand has resigned as editor of the Winnipeg Free Press effective today.

Late FinalsLogic Grid puzzles come with a handy interactive grid that will help you solve the puzzle based on the given clues.
It was finals week, with each class having a two hour final. Five roommates decided to go to a concert the night before each of them had a big final. As fate would have it, all five slept in. They all showed up late to their final and each told their professor a different excuse as to why he was late. Although, none of their professors cared, because the roommates had posted online what they had done.
From the clues below, determine what final each roommate was late for, how late each was, and what excuse they used.
1) Cody used the excuse of was helping a friend move and was, at most 72 minutes late.
2) The roommate taking English, who wasn't Isaac, said he was delayed by an accident.
3) Justin was taking History.
4) The one who was 64 minutes late used the excuse of no power in the apartment; neither he nor the one who was 73 minutes late is taking Physics.
5) The roommate taking Calculus wasn't Isaac or Conner: the latter showed up 68 minutes late.
6) Sam didn't arrive 73 minutes late.
7) The one who was 78 minutes late didn't use the excuse of writing down the wrong time and room number of the final.
8) The one who was 71 minutes late was taking Business.
AnswerSam was taking Calculus, was 64 minutes late, and used the excuse of no power.
Conner was taking English, was 68 minutes late, and used the excuse of accident.
Isaac was taking Physics, was 78 minutes late, and used the excuse of broke-up with girl friend.
Justin was taking History, was 73 minutes late, and used the excuse of wrong time and room.
Cody was taking Business, was 71 minutes late, and used the excuse of was helping a friend move.

MIAMI BEACH, Fla. –The Saint Leo men's golf team opened up play at the Buccaneer Invitational on Monday morning at Normandy Shores Golf Club, part of a 14-team field—four of which are nationally ranked. After the first round Saint Leo sits in 12th place with a team score of 305.
The Lions were scheduled to complete 36 holes on Monday but due to incelement weather and a lengthy delay, the teams will finish up their second rounds tomorrow morning before they tee off for the final round.
Leading the Lions after 18 holes was senior Nick Brothers with a score of 72 (+1). Brothers' opening round was solid enough to place him tied for 13th overall among individuals. Coming in next was Austin Grey, who tallied a 73 (+2) in the first round and sits in 20th place on the individual leaderboard.
True freshman Trevor Joseph and Chaz Heinz were next in line—both firing scores of 80 (+9) in the first round. Rounding out the Lions' lineup was Codi Daudelin who came in one stroke behind Joseph and Heinz, with an 81 (+10).
Saint Leo trails Valdosta State by two strokes heading into tomorrow, and leading the entire field is the host Barry, who totaled a team score of 284.
The Lions will look to make up some ground as they finish their second round and head into the final 18 holes.

Fat-Blasting Device
A non-invasive procedure designed to freeze-out cellulite
Faddish cryotherapy spas—reverse saunas in which below-zero temperatures allegedly tighten skin—may not have arrived stateside yet (they're already hot in Europe), but the FDA is on the verge of approving an innovative fat-blasting device that could give new meaning to the phrase "freezing your ass off." Cryolipolysis is a noninvasive procedure in which a doctor places a coffee-saucer-size suction-cup-like apparatus on the skin to gradually extract body heat until the subcutaneous levels of fat are frozen. Because the epidermis remains within a normal temperature range (and is also fundamentally more resistant to cold), skin remains undamaged. "Think of it as being essentially like an air-conditioning compressor," says New York dermatologist David J. Goldberg, MD, who is involved in clinical trials of Cryolipolysis for the FDA. "The heat that gets sucked out of the fat layer is deposited in the outer layer on its way out, so the skin is protected."
Pioneered by researchers at Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts General Hospital, Cryolipolysis derives from their discovery that fat cells are uniquely sensitive to cold. A study published in Lasers in Surgery and Medicine found that intense, localized freezing caused a loss of adipocytes (the cells involved in making and storing fat) in Yucatán pigs. Cold triggers the breakdown of fat by damaging the cells enough that they wither and, over time, will be naturally metabolized by the lymphatic system. For years, we've been heating and pummeling cellulite to melt it away, but now it appears that the opposite approach is more viable. "This is a complete reversal of everything we've been doing with lasers for the past 20 years, which has involved cooling the outer layer of skin so that it doesn't blister while heating the layer below," Goldberg says. Although quantifiable comparisons can't be made until FDA approval is granted, Cryolipolysis promises to be more effective than other noninvasive procedures (such as those that employ radio frequencies and acoustic waves) and safer than lipo. Also, the results are uniform. "All of the cells respond the same way when frozen, so you get a smooth reduction in the area that has been treated," says Goldberg, who projects that the device will be approved and in use within the next few months.
Cryolipolysis has shown no side effects in the 200 subjects tested so far; the process is painless ("barring a little numbness," Goldberg says); and the results are impressive. "You can have about a 25 percent reduction in fat deposits from a single session," says New York dermatologist Neil Sadick, MD. One treatment is likely to be sufficient, but follow-up sessions may be required for some patients, depending on the amount of fat they wish to lose. Currently, the patent-holding manufacturer, Zeltiq, has designed suction cups only large enough to target love handles and saddlebags (the technique is most effective where fat is densest), but broader areas such as stomachs or thighs may be treatable down the road. The only drawback might be that it takes a few months to see the full results, as the fat breaks down gradually. And the procedure itself might not be as quick as some would like: "Because the fat has to be cooled incrementally, it takes about an hour," Goldberg says. "But then, it's not like it's laborious: Once the doctor positions the machine and switches it on, all you need to do is grab a magazine and sit there."

You have your choice of two strong, violent dramas at AFI Fest lateSunday.
"We Gotta Get Out of This Place" is an acclaimed neo-noir about three Texas teens coerced into ripping off a crime boss. Comparisons to Jim Thompson have been made.
Kim Ki-duk ("Pieta"), a guy whose movies can shock — even by the brutal standards of South Korean cinema, reportedly goes all-out in the sexual revenge thriller "Moebius." We're assured it's quite artistic, but be warned: Seoul's censors initially banned its exhibition, and they've seen pretty much everything.

The 2010 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show
Sorry for the late start, folks, but as you can see, it was not for naught.
Here's the 2010 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show which, as you already know, featured the return of Mount Katy Perry along with these lovely ladies who, if Adriana Lima is any indication, were prepared to get violent if everyone regardless of gender didn't get a boner. No, really, Adriana Lima looks like she ran around backstage screaming into mirrors to pump everybody up. "Let's push-up some tits! A ROO ROO ROO ROO! We've gotta keep our composure!" *slams metal chair into locker*
EDIT: Bumped to the top for reasons that should be blood-centralizingly evident.

You are here: Home → Forum Home → Bumblebee forums → Bumblebee Identification → Thread
Hi Wendy,
This looks to me (not an expert) like a Common Carder bee. I think the Tree bumblebee has a clearly defined white tail on the abdomen, and a dark band between the ginger thorax and the tail.
It's a really good photo – and I wonder if you could tell me what camera you used? I have recently bought a Fuji 350, an updated version of my last broken one which took quite good photos, but the new one is no good for bumblebee photos – I only get blurred ones! I would be grateful for any recommendations from you – or from anyone else reading this.
With best wishes,
Hi Wendy,
I agree with Kit.- Common Carder Bee = Bombus pascuorum.
What flower was it foraging? Looks the right shape for a long-tongued bumble, which is what your bumble is..
Tree bumbles,B. hypnorum are short-tongued bumbles.
Nice pic.
Many thanks for your advice Kit and Urbanbumble. Kit, you asked which camera I used. It was a Panasonic G5 . It was the first outing for this camera body (I'd upgraded from a Panasonic G1). I just sat on the grass watching the bees visit the clover and made sure I had set a high shutter speed to capture the bees in motion. I was a bit lucky with this one.
Hi Wendy
Thanks for the helpful camera recommendation.
Hope you enjoy many more successes with your camera.
Have you thought of sending the photos to the Beewatch website -
where you can upload photos for identification?
best wishes,

Wholesale Smith & Wesson Black - Public Safety SWAT Watch
Wholesale Tactical Watches
Tactical and Military Combat Watches. A quartz watch is a watch that uses an electronic oscillator that is regulated by a quartz crystal to keep time. This crystal oscillator creates a signal with very precise frequency, so that quartz clocks are at least an order of magnitude more accurate than good mechanical clocks. Generally, some form of digital logic counts the cycles of this signal and provides a numeric time display, usually in units of hours, minutes, and seconds. The world's first analog quartz wristwatches were revealed in 1967. Since the 1970s, they have become the most widely used timekeeping technology. We offer military themed quartz watches that contain military designs and military emblems. Generally all watches are quartz watch unless specifically stated as other. Quartz watches are unisex and can be worn by both men and women.
Waterproof or water-resistant watches describes objects unaffected by water, or resisting water passage, or which are covered with a material that resists or does not allow water passage. Such items may be used in wet environments or under water. Waterproofing describes making an object waterproof or water-resistant. Watches may be crafted to become water resistant. These watches are sometimes called diving watches when they are suitable for scuba diving or saturation diving. The International Organization for Standardization issued a standard for water resistant watches. Watches are classified by their degree of water resistance, which roughly translates to the following (1 meter = 3.281 feet). Water resistant 30 meters or 50 meters is suitable for swimming or diving, water related work, and fishing. Water resistant 100 meters is suitable for swimming, diving, recreational surfing, snorkeling, sailing, and water sports. Water resistant watches are great for camping, fishing, swimming, snorkeling, and much more.

Oil Search's full year profit has dropped by 13 per cent due its increased exploration activity.
The energy company has also forecast lower production and higher costs in calendar 2013.
Oil Search made a net profit of $US175.8 million ($171.40 million) in the six months to December 31, down from $US202.5 million in the previous corresponding period.
''This was largely driven by higher exploration expense, of $US144 million ($140.40 million) compared to $US60.6 million in 2011,'' managing director Peter Botten said in a statement on Tuesday.
''This reflects the company's increased level of exploration activity in 2012.''

At last week's Academy of Veterinary Consultants' winter meeting in Denver, Connie K. Larson, PhD, Zinpro Performance Minerals, discussed mineral supplementation in beef cattle.
One of the key points Larson noted is that while it can't tell you everything about animal performance, mineral analysis provides a basis for decisions in a herd, and that analysis can also help with diagnosing some herd problems.
"Cow nutrition is critical," she said. "Anything we do for cow nutrition and supplementing with trace minerals is important."
Another key point Larson discussed was "generation nutrition" and setting cattle offspring up for a lifetime of immunity, no matter what their role is in the future.
"We need to set offspring up for a lifetime of immunity whether it's impacting feedlot performance, heifer longevity in the herd or even bull development. All of these are impacted by nutrition early in life. Mineral programs impact reproduction, performance and profitability."
