A Dallas woman is accused of fatally running over her cousin early Sunday after a dispute over gas money, police said.
"Well, if that's the way it is," Kassandra Martinez, 20, said before accelerating her car and striking Yunuel Aguilar twice at a northwest Dallas gas station, according to an arrest warrant affidavit.
Aguilar, 24, was taken to Parkland Memorial Hospital, where she was pronounced dead. Martinez is charged with her murder.
Saturday night, Martinez and her three cousins, including Aguilar, went to a nightclub. Martinez's car was low on gas, and the other women agreed to give her gas money, according to the affidavit.
At the club, the four women argued about whether to go home or go out to eat. Martinez drove away without the three women but with their purses in her car, according to the affidavit. The cousins got a ride from someone at the club and at about 2:30 a.m. pulled into a nearby Exxon gas station, near Interstate 35E and Royal Lane, where they saw Martinez's car.
Aguilar and her sister approached the car to try to get their purses from the trunk and talked to Martinez through an open window, according to police.
Martinez asked if they would help pay for gas and when they said no, she put the car into reverse and backed into Aguilar, the affidavit said. She then drove forward, running over her cousin a second time before driving away, police said.
Aguilar's mother called Martinez and persuaded her to go to the hospital, where she was arrested, according to the affidavit.
Martinez told police she did not feel any bumps or hear anything when she put her car in reverse and drove off. She said she had not been drinking or using drugs, according to the affidavit.
Martinez told police she did not have a valid driver's license. She is being held at Dallas County Jail with bail set at $150,000. She is also being held for living in the country illegally.

This festive period I was avoiding Amazon (because of their UK tax avoidance) and found myself in a real bookshop. And what a delight. I could have spent hours there. I know, it is sad that this is rare experience for me.
What struck me was not just the pleasure of so many real books, but how much easier it was to discover new titles than it was online. I had previously scoured Amazon to find books to put on my Channukah/Christmas present list. I found one. But an hour in Waterstones and, based on what was displayed and what was recommended by staff, I found a dozen books I'd love to read.
Amazon of course provides personal recommendations and "people who bought this book also bought…", but am I alone in finding these fairly useless? It always seems heavily influenced by my most recent purchases, which were often for friends, rather than the history of what I'm interested in. Currently the recommendations are focused on peanut butter products, WII games, nail paint and books on Katy Perry – none of which I have any interest in.
So it wasn't just that Waterstones had a real person eager to help me. But the entirely un-personalised "our staff recommend" sections produced far more books I'd like to buy than the personalisation and clever algorithms of Amazon. It seems real people do make a difference after all.
Lessons for Learning
So how does this apply to my business, that of learning? Well e-learning has been hyped many times as the future and once again we are in a phase of organisations (and especially central government) closing their classrooms. Yet it is hard to find people who actually enjoy and look forward to using formal e-learning. (As compared to the 97% who agree they had an enjoyable experience learning software in our classrooms.)
The big growth at the moment is in Live Online Learning. Here you learn at your desk, using virtual classroom technology, but there is a real tutor. And our aim is to keep class sizes to six to eight people, so you still get the personal attention. It is certainly more convenient for our clients and many report it is as enjoyable as the classroom. Though they do say they miss the afternoon ice cream!
So keep the people at the centre is my learning point. Perhaps if Amazon had some real people to talk to …. and paid their taxes …..

The first image has emerged online from Pirates Of The Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales, and it features the returning Johnny Depp in a spot of bother as Captain Jack Sparrow…
The new image shows Sparrow bound by rope and in the custody of a pair of grim-faced seafarers. However, given the frequency with which he seems to get himself in this kind of jam, we're sure he'll be free again in no time.
Sparrow's latest adventure will see him cross paths (and probably cutlasses) with the villainous Captain Salazar (Javier Bardem), who is leading a ghostly crew hell-bent on killing every pirate across the seven seas. Jack's best chance of survival? Recovering the mythical trident of Poseidon, naturally.
Directed by Espen Sandberg and Joachim Rønning and co-starring Kaya Scodelario, Brenton Thwaites and Geoffrey Rush, Pirates Of The Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales will open in the UK and US on 7 July 2017.

Indexation Lags and Heterodox Stabilization Programs
This paper examines the role of wage indexation and indexation lags in stabilization programs. We analyze whether the added inflation inertia caused by such lags increases the importance of the heterodox aspects of anti-inflation stabilization programs, which involve the imposition of direct wage and price controls. For this purpose, we build a model of a small, open, semi-industrialized economy which incorporates nominal rigidities via staggered wage contracts. The model allows for a variable degree of indexation to the cost of living which is implemented with a variable lag. Nous examinons le rôle de l'indexation et des délais d'indexation pour la stabilisation économique. Nous analysons si l'inertie accrue due aux délais peut rendre plus importants les aspects hétérodoxes des programmes anti-inflation, aspects qui comprennent l'utilisation de contrôles directs sur les prix et les salaires. Pour cette fin, nous utilisons un modèle d'une petite économie semi-industrialisée avec une rigidité nominale qui provient de contrats de salaire chevauchés. Le modèle permet à la fois un degré d'indexation et un délai d'indexation variables.

A nearly full moon lustered the magnolias blooming along the University of Virginia's esplanade. The air was heavy with honeysuckle. When the commencement german* ended, Virginia men and their young ladies thought of the traditional 20-mile drive to Afton Gap to see the sun rise. But there was no gas.
The german itself had not been very gay. Midway through the evening only 14 couples (their dress informal), several hound dogs circulated in the Jefferson-designed Rotunda.
In nearby Lynchburg the sod was fresh on the grave of William G. Suhling, former captain-elect of...

Follow the directions in the Getting There section to reach Twin Lakes Basin. In this basin the trail will go directly to Upper Twin Lake and then continue south to Hard Butte Lake. The trail will continue to the southeast corner of the lake where it ends at the base of the north buttress of Hard Butte.
Route Description
From the southeast corner of the lake look southeast or up and to the left to see an obvious chute that spills from the top of the buttress to the talus in front of you (there is a larger more pronounced chute to the right of where the trail ends that is different route). Climb the talus to the chute and then ascend it to the top where there is a forest of twisted and stunted trees on a much gentler slope. Continue straight up to the open basin above. Here a faint east to west trail will soon appear. This trail can be followed to the top or if it is snow covered and hard to follow just turn right (west) to the main ridgeline. The ridge can be followed south to the summit, but it is very irregular and rugged so a better way is to side hill on the talus just below the solid rock.
Essential Gear
Good hiking boots are all that is required. An ice axe and crampons are recommended for a spring or early summer attempt when snow will be present.
Miscellaneous Info
If you have information about this route that doesn't pertain to any of the other sections, please add it here.

The makers of Salman Khan's upcoming movie "Sultan" have released a new poster of the film. The latest poster of "Sultan" shows Salman bare-bodied, wearing just the esentials, as he enters a ring.
The poster does not give a full clear view of Salman's body, but it is distinct enough to offer a glimpse of the actor's chiselled physique. He is seen with intensity in his eyes as he rubs his hands with dust just before entering the wrestling arena. He also dons a moustache in the poster.
Salman plays the role of a wrestler from Haryana in "Sultan." Directed by Alia Abbas Zafar, the film also features Anushka Sharma as a wrestler.
Some pictures of Salman shooting on the sets of the film were leaked online a few days ago. The superstar was seen bare-bodied on the sets in them.
Although the leaked pictures were not so clear, thoy were good enough for his fans to be super excited about the upcoming film. Produced by Yash Raj Films, the sports drama also features Randeep Hooda as Salman's wrestling coach and Amit Sadh a younger version of Salman's character in the film.
"Sultan" was earlier expected to have a box office clash with Shah Rukh Khan-starrer "Raees," with both films slated to be released on Eid this year. However, latest reports say SRK is willing to avoid the clash and may consider shifting the release date of "Raees" by a week or two. Now, fans of Salman are eagerly waiting for the trailer of "Sultan," which may be unveiled any time now.

I have recently switched to using a Minneapolis Duct Blaster and have noticed that switching the rings has been resulting in varying results. My question is which reading is more accurate?
I know that each ring is used depending on the amount of leakage in the duct system, however it doesn't seem clear which ring I should be using. Yesterday I test a 1.5 ton system in a condo and I used the #2 ring. I got a result of 240 CFM then I put in the #3 ring (smallest one) and got 180 CFM. Which one is accurate?
Views: 864
A good rule of thumb when you get readings that stretch credibility - or just don't make sense - Break down your (DG) set-up and redo it. That will often make a glitch , like not switching the gauge to match the ring, stand out. If that fails, there are two, relatively inexpensive bits which I think should be in all DB kits.
TEC makes a calibrated plate to field-test your DB for accuracy. They also have recently released a "Ring 4", which you'll probably need if you have any small units with tight systems. The smallest ring which will give you a reading s most accurate because the flow across the pitot ring is most accelerated.
The flex connector can develop wear pinholes which you may not find otherwise unless you hold it against a strong light and look down the duct for dots of light.
I hope this helps.
I often change rings to qualify my findings. With the numbers you stated, my experience leads me to think you forgot to change the configuration setting. Using leakage to outside clearly gives more information to use in the analysis of duct tightness testing. In my area 30% would be typical, overall ranging up to 40% and greater. Homeowners are still confused when a 15% result is considered above average.
Some of the responses provide useful information but others ignore the fact that his readings on the same range should give the same result. The Principle is, if what you are blowing into, a duct or flex with a hole in it, is at the same pressure then the flow must read the same regardless of the Range used.
I suggest checking your gauge and Duct Blaster on a regular basis with this simple set up. You'll learn a lot and have fun too. Here's how you check your Blaster. You should do this at least monthly.
Attach your Duct Blaster to a field calibration plate or just use a box taped to the end of your flex with a 3 x 6 inch hole in a thin cardboard sheet taped to the end of it. Square hole is ok. Your test pressure goes to channel A. Flow tubes to Channel B per normal. Take the pressure up to 25 Pa. The flow should read about 94 CFM on Ring 2 and 3. If not one of them is wrong. Test pressurize and depressurize but use your flow conditioner and two tubes for fan pressure. Using @ 25 Pa will help.
After you prove your Duct Blaster is ok, see if you can get the flow up to 180 CFM on Ring 3. I doubt you can, even in free air.
Your 240 CFM on Ring 2 would require 230 Pa fan pressure that translates into only 96 CFM when you switch ranges to Ring 3. Another dead end.
There are several plausible explanations as to why Ring 2 and 3 would NOT give the same readings on the same duct. So, what can mess up on the Duct Blaster end?
If depressurizing the duct the flow conditioner and connection to the second port of the flow gauge would give a higher than normally possible flow reading. In order to read 180 CFM, the fan pressure would have to be around 788 Pa on Ring 3. Possible?
As suggested, the Range on the gauge may not have been changed when the Range Ring was changed but I doubt it in this case.
The backpressure was really high, obscuring the real result and since @25 Pa was used, the result looked real. Is this possible?
Gauge was set to say @75 Pa instead of 25 Pa.
Or, Ring 2 and 3 actually read incorrectly which you'll have checked out with the above test. This is how they get checked out at the factory; same principle but more complex apparatus.
If your getting a good reading with the 2 ring on, using a DG 700 and it is not flashing LOW then that is the proper flow range. Sure you could put on a 3 ring and get a different number but why? The 2 ring matches the flow range. The 3 ring has a flow range of 10 - 125 CFM. A reading of 180 CFM is clearly wrong since it doesn't match the rated flow range of the the #3 ring. The leakage for that system is +/- 240 CFM.
Michael, how do you know the tester would not start out with Ring 3, take a reading and assume it was ok?
What this repeated test is pointing to is that there is a problem here, so what is it? Is Ring 3 out of calibration for some reason, was the flow conditioner not used? His comparison is similar to the gauge check where you connect channel A to Channel B and let's say one reads 100 Pa and the other reads 150 Pa. One is wrong for sure! It is not good enough to hope you use the range without the error. Same, here. It is simple to find out which range is wrong and it could be both which is why I suggested the Field Calibration check which is now a recognized procedure to give us all confidence that both the gauge, the flow Device (Duct Blaster in this case) and the operator are all doing the right thing. Simple and easy to do and we all need to know how and practice it on a regular basis.
I sat on the RESNET committee where they were going to require regular calibrations of your flow devices where you'd have to send your Blaster or Blower Door in regularly, pay for the cost of shipping and calibration to show it was working. I argued that a perfectly calibrated fan is useless if the problem exists elsewhere in the tubes or connections that could leak or be plugged or in the method. I suggested the Field Calibration Check as I outlined in the previous message.
Here is a fun oversize you can try that proves my point about application. A Duct Tester was used in a commercial test at 500 Pa where the user swears he read 850 CFM on his DG700. This is like saying my Chevrolet went 550 MPH; totally impossible. So I tried to duplicate what he did and you can too. Take your Duct Blaster on Open, lay it on the floor face up with no flex. Turn it up to full speed. You'll read 850 CFM but the flow is zero because it's lying on the floor. Nothing wrong with the Blaster, just the technique. You'll be generating about 500 Pa pressure which is well above their spec which is 100 Pa maximum. The user failed to follow that part of their manual and got a false reading. No amount of calibration will substitute for not following the instructions.
These tools are easy to understand if you experiment to see where their limits are which will cause you to use them as intended and thereby get good results.
Try it.
"take a reading and assume it was ok?"
Assumptions, Ah yes good point. Well taken.
Sorry for chiming in so late. Sean's comment early on in the discussion was the closest to the point. 160 CFM is off the calibration charts on the high end. Your Duct Blaster® Ring 3 may be able to top out at 160 CFM with the fan sitting on the floor with no back pressure, but you would not be able to get this duct system to 25 Pa. I did a test using out TEC Trainer and adjusted the tightness to about 240 CFM25, the reading Stephen had with Ring 2. When I switched to Ring 3, I was only able to get the Trainer up to 11 Pa. If I have the gauge set to the CFM@25 mode, I will get a reading, but this is not the best, most accurate option.
You should keep these things in mind when deciding which ring to use:
Now I am going to stray a bit into tech geek mode. In the example that Steven used, the DG-700 is doing a Can't Reach Pressure extrapolation using formula to convert a flow at a pressure near 10 Pa to 25 Pa. The DG-700 is assuming a flow exponent of 0.60. The range of error in this extrapolation could give you a range between about 9% higher to 15 % lower than the actual reading. Steven's reading was about 25% lower, leading me to believe that something additional is going on. One explanation would be a depressurization test without a fan reference tube connected between the Channel B reference on the DG-700 and the tap on the flex duct.

Our registration info for the next MCA-led Live Meeting (March 21) is now up on the MCP site. The presenter will be Allen Stewart from Microsoft (no, not all MCAs work at Microsoft... but the first few we've asked to present happen to...). I believe there are 90 MCAs worldwide, to date. You can learn more about the program here. I haven't heard him speak but understand he is great; I'm looking forward to it. Allen is going to talk about Virtualization for maybe 20 or so minutes, then talk about whatever you want him to talk about for the rest of the time.
Allen will discuss the various Microsoft application, hardware, and management virtualization technologies available today, as well as new virtualization technologies on the horizon, including the Hypervisor-based hardware virtualization technology in Windows Server Code Name "Longhorn." As always, we'll leave lots of time for questions. The meeting is offered twice to accommodate global calendars.
So something funny just happened. We've been jumping through hoops trying to keep the registration info for these meetings limited to MCPs as much as possible (it sounds simple, but using LIve Meeting there is no straight-forward way to do it). The idea was to keep registration numbers down to allow you all to have better conversations with the presenters. For that reason, we've been posting the registration links on the MCP site, where log-in is required. BUT, we are still managing registration using Microsoft's event system, which apparently takes promotion in to its own hands. I just googled (whut?!?) Allen to see if I could get some bio info, and the first thing that comes up is the registration information for our "private" Live Meeting. So, here you have it, because everyone else does too: March 21, 7:30 AM PST or March 21, 5:00 PM PST. At least I made the Tick this morning.
But back to business. You should come to the meeting. It will be good. The people who attended the last MCA meeting (Scott Andersen, on Exchange 2007) were really psyched: excellent presenter, interesting info, 75% of the time was answering your questions.

Review for Lost Creek Ranch Camp Confidence, Beldenville, WI, USA
I have donated 2 horses to Lost Creek Ranch, one that has special needs, and I couldn't be more thrilled with their care and that they have a job that puts so many smiles on their lucky riders faces. It warms my heart to know they are in such capable hands, and that they are loved by so many. The confidence and joy on the students faces have been my reward for sharing my horses with them.

SANDY, Utah, May 8 (UPI) -- Kyle Beckerman and Jamison Olave found the net Saturday, helping Real Salt Lake dispatch Philadelphia 3-0.
RSL (3-3-1) got its third goal from Alvaro Saborio as it remained unbeaten at home and won for the second time in three games.
Both Beckerman and Olave scored on defensive miscues by the Union (1-0-5). Beckerman's tally in the 27th minute was set up when Union defender Cristian Arrieta made a bad pass to goalkeeper Chris Seitz and Saborio intercepted in the area.
Olave's marker in the 51st minute came after Seitz fumbled the ball in front of the goal.
RSL got the capper on a combination play from Saborio and Pablo Campos.

I was in New York for a conference most of last week. On my way home—- a four-hour wait in JFK, a long flight to Salt Lake City, another two-hour layover and then a two hour flight to Tucson—- I read Eric Schlosser's excellent Fast Food Nation. It's a terrific piece of muckracking journalism that looks at how fast food became "as American as a small, rectangular, frozen and reheated apple pie" and what that has meant for American society. There's a lot in the book to, uh, chew on, including some social history on the growth of the fast-food industry in California, a fascinating account of a visit to a factory that produces natural and artificial food flavorings and an indictment of labor practices in both the meatpacking industry and the fast-food franchises themselves.
There's also an excellent chapter on the efforts of fast-food companies (pioneered by McDonald's) to build brand loyalty by marketing to children. The short-term goal is to get kids to pester their parents for Happy Meals. The long term goal is to create adults who are reminded of happy childhood moments whenever they see or, especially, smell McDonald's food. I remember that Ireland got its first McDonald's sometime in the early 1980s, in Dublin. Cork got one a year or two later. Very rapidly, it became the coolest place to have your birthday party. We all wanted to go there. A couple of years later, the Ronald McDonald mystique had taken even deeper root in children's minds. When I was in college, a cousin of mine made her first communion, an event which I and everyone else in Ireland had celebrated by going to a hotel restaurant somewhere for dinner, before travelling around to all your relatives and extracting money from them. My cousin, though, didn't want to go to some stupid restaurant for her dinner. This was the biggest event of her life, and she wanted to celebrate properly, by eating at McDonald's.
One of the reasons I bought the book, incidentally, was to give me some moral ammunition to argue with myself when I get a craving for a two cheeseburger meal, something that happens distressingly often when I walk past the McD's in the student union at lunchtime. Thanks to Schlosser, I now know the names of the chemicals that make the burgers and fries smell so damn good. The next time I get a craving, I will imagine the factory on the New Jersey turnpike where those flavors are manufactured, and remember the nasty chemical smells that would filter through my car's air vent when I used to commute from New Haven to Princeton.All Posts by Date · All Posts by Category

Virtually inescapable during 2012, One Direction have capitalised on the power of social media to become the UK's biggest teen-pop export since the Spice Girls despite possessing little in the way of star quality, personality or tunes. Having rendered all other boybands obsolete, the Cowell cash cows are understandably milking their phenomenal global success for all it's worth with the release of their second album in less than 12 months, Take Me Home. Adhering to the 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it' school of thought, its track-list is almost interchangeable with their Up All Night debut. But there's an added cynicism here which makes its relentlessly sugary pop sound much harder to stomach. Here's a look at five of its worst lyrical culprits.
'Kiss You'
Now in their late teens/early 20s, their contrived attempts at Nickelodeon-friendly innocence are becoming even more unconvincing, especially considering Harry Styles appears to have made a move on every female celebrity aged 30+ within the London borough. Featuring shades of both The Monkees with its psychedelic organ riffs and Bon Jovi with its stadium poodle rock chorus, "Kiss You" may be one of the few sonically interesting tracks on the record but you'd have to be pretty gullible to believe that their Usher-esque smooth talk is for the sole intention of getting to first base: [LISTEN]
Oh, tell me tell me tell me how to turn your love on
You can get, get anything that you want
Baby just shout it out, shout it out
Baby just shout it out, yeah
'Little Things'
It's difficult to think of a boy-band song with a more misguided message than "Little Things." Yet again preying on the vulnerability of their teenage fanbase, the boys appear to believe they're reassuring their girlfriends about their body hang-ups. Whilst in reality, they're basically saying 'you're so fat and wrinkly that no-one else will love you. Look how admirable I am to put up with all your faults.' What makes matters worse is that it's surrounded by the kind of twee acoustic drivel that has inexplicably made its writer, Ed Sheeran, a worldwide star. Come back Westlife, all is forgiven: [LISTEN]
I know you've never loved the crinkles by your eyes when you smile
You've never loved your stomach or your thighs
The dimples in your back at the bottom of your spine
But I'll love them endlessly
'Rock Me'
'Do you remember summer '09?' asks Harry Styles on this mongrel fusion of Queen's "We Will Rock You," Bryan Adams' "Summer Of 69" and Busted's entire back catalogue. That's the summer of '09. Not '89. Not '99. But '09. Three years ago. Perhaps summing up just how short-term the team behind the group think, "Rock Me" is a hopeless attempt to tap into the theme of nostalgia which also makes you wonder how on earth the weedy and paper-thin tones of Louis even made it past the X-Factor's first audition stage: [LISTEN]
Do you remember summer '09?
Wanna go back there every night,
Just can't lie, was the best time of my life,
Lying on the beach as the sun blew out,
Playing this guitar by the fire too loud,
Oh my, my, they could never shut us down
'Over Again'
Admittedly, there are a few clever metaphors hidden away in Sheeran's far more palatable second co-write. But what the Lord giveth, the Lord taketh away and this second-rate "Lego House" also contains one of the clumsiest couplets ever committed to record. It may be a unique alternative to their default fist-clenching patter of 'ooh baby, I need you so much.' But even Louis appears to be embarrassed at having to utter the 'showers that are British' rhyme that makes Des'ree's 'I don't want to see a ghost/It's the sight that I fear most' seem like a stroke of lyrical genius: [LISTEN]
Tell me with your mind, body and spirit
I can make your tears fall down like the showers that are British
Whether we're together or apart
We can both remove the masks and admit we regret it from the start
'Nobody Compares'
Unlikely to be challenging Sinead O'Connor for the title of 'ultimate lost love tearjerker,' the downright lazy "Nobody Compares" is more or less every One Direction uptempo rolled into one, which has wisely been relegated to bonus track status. Another calculated effort to make their army of adoring teenyboppers believe that the group can't get enough of their imperfections, the transparently smooth talkers also shove in a series of half-hearted compliments which suggests they've got a future in used car sales once their pop bubble bursts: [LISTEN]
Now all of my friends say it's not really worth it
But even if that's true
No one in the world could stop me from not moving on
Baby, even if I wanted to
Nobody compares to you

Recompiling kernel required to add modules?
I only have basic experience recompiling a Linux kernel, and I have a question about adding dynamic modules.
In case I want to add a brand new module, do I need to recompile the kernel to include a reference to that new module, or is simply compiling a kernel with generic support of dynamic modules all it takes to add whatever modules I need later on, without recompiling the kernel and rebooting the host?
Thank you.
If you have the complete kernel build tree for your currently running kernel, configured correctly, and it has support for dynamically loaded modules, you shouldn't need to rebuild your kernel to build different modules / add new modules. BE CAREFUL THOUGH! I specifically used the word "shouldn't." Some modules have options which change header files, or object location definitions which can break kernel linkage. When in doubt, it's not too much hassle to rebuild the whole thing; the only impact is the time it takes to reboot.
Thanks for the tip. I kind of understood that, provided a kernel had been compiled with support for dynamic modules and its header files were available, it was possible to compile and load a new module without having to compile a new kernel and reboot with it.

The Application and Research of Classification of POCP SMS Based on Text Mining
People's Opinion Collection and Processing system (POCP) is the electronic petition system with the function of website, hot line, E-mail and Short Message Service (SMS), which is developed for Fuzhou Municipal Committee in JiangXi province. With the increasing demands of government service quality, the number of opinions brought by the masses is also on the increase. Seeking effective means and classifying these opinions to carry out contrapuntally become a gradually urgent problem. Based on the characteristic that SMS can change into text, this paper presents a thought that text classification algorithm can be used in the technology of SMS processing.

SACRAMENTO, Oct. 9 (UPI) -- California Gov. Jerry Brown signed legislation limiting the ability of professional athletes to file for workers' compensation benefits in the state.
The new law requires professional athletes to have played at least two complete seasons for a team in California to be eligible to file for workers' compensation, the Los Angeles Times reported Tuesday.
Additionally, if an athlete has played seven or more seasons for a team outside California, they are ineligible for benefits even if they meet the two-season requirement within the state.
Brown signed the legislation Tuesday after more than a year of heavy lobbying by professional sports leagues, which stand to reduce their financial liabilities for concussions and other brain injuries sustained by players, the Times said.
Only five members of the Legislature voted against the law.
"Our workers' compensation system will no longer be unfairly targeted by out-of-state professional athletes," Democratic Assemblyman Henry T. Perea of Fresno said.
Critics of the law said it allowed wealthy owners and teams to shirk responsibility for employees injured on the job.
"It's a sellout to the billionaire owners" of professional teams, said Melissa Brown, a workers' compensation attorney in Sacramento. "Players are suffering these terrible injuries, especially the older ones. They are going to be without a remedy."

Yea, you might want to check your battery connections before flying this one....
Don't kid yourself though, most RC is dangerous. I just built a pointy fiberglass fuselage nose on a plank and have come to realize that I don't think I want to hand catch this one, let alone get in it's way when it is moving 100Kmh.
True enough Kent,
I have done enough damage to myself with runaway props in the shop not to think about some of the close calls on the field and I fly lightweight stuff. Now imagine 350 Km/h (about 200 MPH for those in the colonies ). I would not want to be around if this thing suddenly loses its bind or some other calamity befalls it. At some point one might want to ask the question " just because I can ... should I ?"
There enough stories about accidents to fill these pages, when I started in the model RC arena a few years ago the LHS guy told me a story about two guys who bought the farm at the same time when some high risk turbine fired model lost its link to the ground and bored through both guys. Neither one lived to tell the tale. Another story he knew to tell me was some poor guy in Switserland who died after getting whacked with one of those nine meter gliders that he had foolishly let get to close to himself. Apparently he got hit in the head and that was that. 25 Kilos worth of glider moving at 100 plus Km/H has a alot of energy and if you happen to be in the right place at the wrong time ...
Really the question is at what point does this turn from a hobby with some risks to a engineering project with very high risks? And is it at that point still a hobby or a true research and development program that should be carried out under a very much stricter set of guidelines, and at that under very controlled cirumstances.
In the video I though I heard a voice over a PA system calling out the flight ... , very questionable in my eyes letting that thing up in front of an audience. And then it falls apart mid-air. It seemed nearly impossible to film due to the high speeds and even on the best resolution I had a hard time trying to figure out exactly how the damn thing was oriented. Need I say more.
Granted the pilot was very good to keep it under control but this type of technology is available to anyone who can afford it ... so theoretically some half wit can get a hold of this stuff because it is cool and goes like hell ... fun till it falls apart or kills someone.
Ok rant over
Seems a simple enough mod.
that's one reason why we have not invested more time into the project. We got cold feet at the glance of the estimated terminal speed for a T25 Kolibri (over 400 km/h or 250 MPH for overseas). That's a topic on which I've been thinking about the last years. I think that some regulation will be introduced in the near future here in Germany...
Anyway, back to the Schapel, which has a great size to thrust ratio and will fly nicely and not ballistic!
@ Herk and Stuart,
Hello gentlemen, well I have been busy with some flying machines but they are not flying wings. A 2.75 Meter Glider as well as a 2.25 meter which is currently on the table recieving a custom retractable powerplant. So yes I am doing things but because they are not Flying Wings per se they are not here. There is a build thread on a German Forum where some pics of the Schleicher K8b can be seen. It is a rather slow build though as the past months have been terribly busy with many things. Hopefully now that the storm is over in my life (the last one passed this weekend as matter of fact) I will be able to refocus on things. But for now let us give John his thread back. It is really a great build he has going here.
Not much to show for todays work. The leads are cut to length and have plugs crimped on them. I labelled them with a silver fine paint. The retracts are now sorted out. I decided to fit the mains so they could have a bearer that was glued onto the main spar at one side and the rear spar at the other. The other side of the mount is made from infilling the existing spar so it is solid except where the cut out is made for the electric motor. The ply work for the retracts I glue with Epoxy so it is not as neat to look at, but is much stronger.
The nose retract is glued in place and the space divided so the other side can accommodate the batteries.
The most important thing is get a few degrees of positive angle of attack or it will not get airborne. On the Horten it is 7 degrees but that brings problems with the landing and the plane 'pogo-ing' on the nose leg if the approach is too flat and fast. I have got about 5 degrees with the Schapel so hopefully this will work out ok. Fortunately the retracts come with some axels that can be clamped on the leg enabling me to get the length correct when I cut it. The photos show the testing process.
The engine thrust line will need careful attention and I will rework the design that Andres developed. I really want the engine and thrust tube to be angled up at the rear by 4 degrees.
All the retract system is very simple and light, I just hope they will be robust enough.
I have the servo mounts and wheel wells to install before I can start to sheet the underside. This is turning out to be a quick build for me.
Couple of pictures showing the longer nose leg and shorter mains. It will be better to show the plane on its wheels and will take a pic in the next few days.
Thanks Jorg
Yes the P111 is interesting. It is a moulded centre section with foam wing tips. It is large and heavy and has not flown yet as I had to get it approved under the UK Large Model Association for over 20 Kg. More info on RCU.
Had flu which curtailed workshop activities, but now back.
Fitted blocks to upper surface to hold servo frames. These plastic servo frames are great, they fit all well known servos and allow them, to easily be removed with 2 screws. They are very well made and are light. I secure mine with 4 small screws and Hysol (after sanding the plastic).
The frames come from Germany
I am fitting both the flap and elevon servos so the arms project through the underside skin. This means they are fixed to the upper surface and the cover is just for access. As I am using retracts I am not worried about damage to the servos with a grass landing.
Fitted wheel wells made from spray can tops and glued into 0.6mm ply sheet with Acrylic glue. Makes a very light arrangement.
Balsa blocks glued in for fitting the horns into, also the small ribs for the ends of the flaps and elevons glued in place. I was keen to keep the shape of the elevons and flaps as exactly correct as possible so I glued in the balsa strip in place. This has an allowance for 5mm of down elevon movement. I anticipate 80:20 differential aileron movement with a lot more up than down required. The hinges will be hinge tape as is used on my Topmodel glider. This is now a year old and had plenty of turbine powered high speed flights and it has tape for the hinge. Despite having fuel spilt over them there is no peeling or cracking of the tape and I am happy that they are robust enough.If you look very carefully on this photo the line of the top surface can be seen. When the elevons and the flaps are cut off they will only need the ribs to be cut through. I will have the elevons top hinged and the flaps bottom hinged.

Finally made a start today on sheeting the bottom surface. The elevons were sheeted first. I found that I had the upper surfaces just a little large (wide) so made the bottom ones the correct size. The ply is sanded so the trailing edge is as sharp as possible.
The difference between the flap and elevons can be seen with the flap sheet just pushed into place.
More progress on sheeting the underside. For those that may not have appreciated it the ply sheet is 0.6mm thick, which needs a nicely prepared set of ribs and spars to sit accurately.
On the underside it is tricky to find a clamping regime that clamps the front and rear edges tightly in place with no gaps. I couldn't use clamps as the curve of the top side sheet was too rounded and the clamps slipped off. After much experimenting I used brown parcel tape wrapped round the D box. I put lengths of tape in place before gluing. Just be careful to ensure that you have even pressure so the leading edge is not wavy. Check they are pulled up tight.
Unfortunately I am very sensitive to CA glue as well as Acrylic and both make my sinuses swell. I therefore now tend to use only yellow aliphatic glue, which is a bit messy and does take a while to go off enough to release clamps. Progress is not as fast as I would like.
I made the servo hatches from the material cut out of the ply sheet. I glued the ply lips onto the ply skin before gluing the ply skin in place. The corners are reinforced
with 1.6mm ply sheet. I will screw them in place with miniature screws recently purchased. The Elevon hatches will have only 2 screws in place and the flaps will be 3 screws. I have glued hatches with CA before as this does not require a big force to ease them off if needed. Screws are much easier though.

Sorry to rain on your Easter parade, but most people in the world don't believe Jesus rose from the dead. That shouldn't surprise you since less than a third of the people living today claim to be Christians. But even among self-proclaimed Christians, the number of Jesus-rose-from-the-dead believers is shrinking.
With packed churches on Easter and the proliferation of Christian apologetics books (The Case for Jesus anyone?), you would think a growing number of people would be convinced that Jesus is alive. But just the opposite seems to be true. I have a theory as to why this is, but I'm saving it for the last couple of paragraphs (feel free to read ahead if you're short on time).
Actually, doubts about the resurrection have been around since that first Easter morning. Current day agnostics like Bart Ehrman, the fundamentalist Bible college student turned agnostic professor of religion, may think they have developed an original "Jesus is not God and He didn't rise from the dead" shtick, but they're wrong. These scholar/skeptic types who badly want to keep Jesus in the grave are following a 2,000-year-old narrative.

Someone stole [lastfm]Justin Moore[/lastfm]'s guitar right off the stage during Friday night's concert in Royal Oak. But now it's on its way back to Justin!Here's what Justin tweeted after Friday night's show:
"Great show in Mi tonight. But somebody stole my guitar off stage. Please own up. It means more to me than you know. Dont be a [jerk]. Do right"
Well, the guy who took it heard about this post on WYCD.com and arranged to return it to me. Man, it felt like a scene out of a movie as I met one of the guy's friends in a pre-arranged location Sunday to get the guitar back. Texted photos of it to Justin who called to thank the guy. And I want to thank the guy who took it for owning up and doing the right thing. Here's an excerpt from the apology letter stuck in the case:
"Look, man, I (messed) up major, man. It was a drunken mistake. I love your music so much!! God will get me for what I have done. Well, hope to see you in MI soon. But I would like to deeply and sincerely apologize for what I've done. Like your wonderful song, "How I Got To Be This Way," we all make mistakes. … I'm going out and buying 50 of yo9ur CDs today. I hope and pray you have a wonderful long career. … I'm sure you got some yelling and punching of me to do."
I love a story with a happy ending. But I told Justin, "Next concert, leave the good guitar at home and play a rental." Which it appears he's doing in this photo.

Markovnikov rule, in organic chemistry, a generalization, formulated by Vladimir Vasilyevich Markovnikov in 1869, stating that in addition reactions to unsymmetrical alkenes, the electron-rich component of the reagent adds to the carbon atom with fewer hydrogen atoms bonded to it, while the electron-deficient component adds to the carbon atom with more hydrogen atoms bonded to it. Thus, hydrogen chloride (HCl) adds to propylene (CH3CH=CH2) to produce 2-chloropropane (CH3CHClCH3) rather than the isomeric 1-chloropropane (CH3CH2CH2Cl). The rule is useful in predicting the molecular structures of products of addition reactions.

Modern Cabana UC 12 x 25
UC 12x25
Out of all of the designs in the Modern Cabana range, UC 12x25 is unquestionably the most unique. It still keeps many of the concepts that have been used in smaller products, but the enlarged 12' x 25' floor space has allowed the architects to be slightly more creative and present a different product to the market.
What does the UC 12x25 look like externally?
With the company marketing the UC 12x25 alongside a setting from a standard neighborhood garden, the product is one of the few in the company's catalogue that can be regarded as one that looks very much like a standard house that would be seen on the street.
However, despite the above, it still retains all of the wooden principles that have made Modern Cabana successful in the past. Finished wood is the main material utilized, with this being applied in panels. The amount of natural light that arrives from the front of the building is based on the design of UC 12x20 as well, with a total of three double, sliding patio doors being used to increase the amount of natural light into the property. Elsewhere, in relation to the openings, the property is almost identical to every other building in the architect's range. Two tall and narrow windows sit on each side of the product, although there is a slight difference at the back with a horizontal opening being prevalent at the top of the building.
The promotional images also show that customers can acquire decking to run outside the patio doors, while the roof should also be mentioned with this being flat and combining well with the rest of the property.
What does UC 12x25 look like internally?
It could be said that the majority of the products in the Modern Cabana category are of the small variety and therefore, with UC 12x25 being quite substantial, many will have probably been expecting the internal floor plan to be quite busy.
However, the architects have implemented quite a basic design, with it abiding to the one room policy. Some would suggest that it mimics a studio building, with the bedroom and living space being combined into one. However, due to the large size, some buyers may decide to customize the floor plan following purchase and introduce partitions.
A summary on UC 12x25
With UC 12x25 being one of the largest properties in the Modern Cabana catalogue, one should not be surprised to see so much attention placed on the building. However, considering the increase in size in comparison to other products in the catalogue, some people might be slightly disappointed that the internal floor plan is quite basic and made up of just room. However, with the product being marketed at such a low initial price anyway, this could actually allow potential buyers to increase their building's value in the future - if they decide to insert partitions to create additional rooms.
For those individuals who are happy with the standard design, they will be acquiring a prefab with all the sophisticated finishing's and one that is perfectly suitable for a guesthouse.

Lancewrote a review of Patagonia Down Sweater Vest - Men's on October 26, 2014
Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Fit: True to size
I have always purchased Primaloft vests because I've always felt like a vest should be versatile enough to withstand wet weather, given that a vest is usually worn in those "not sure what kind of a day this is going to be" situations. But, there is truly something to be said about Patagonia's down. This jacket seems to surpass any Primaloft vest I have in warmth by far.
It's new to me, so time will tell how well it will hold up, (another concern I have with down) but so far this is very impressive in the warmth category.

Although this product is recommended for ages eight and above, older children/ teens may need something more complex. Not a problem, as the Snap Circuit range has them covered. Note that, due to small parts, this product is not suitable for children under three years of age. You'll also want to talk to your child about electricity to make sure they know the consequences should they fail to put the circuits together correctly.
In short, the Snap Circuits SC-300 kit is an extremely affordable toy, suitable for both boys and girls aged eight or over who have an interest in science and gadgets. It's great fun, and they will learn almost without realizing!

Alzheimer's Disease (cont.)
There are no medicines that can prevent or cure Alzheimer's disease. Medicine may help some people function better by temporarily reducing memory loss and thinking problems. Other medicines may be needed to manage behaviors or symptoms that are causing strain for the person who has Alzheimer's disease and/or for his or her caregivers.
Medicines for memory problems
Because these medicines work differently, they are sometimes used together (for example, memantine and donepezil).
These medicines may temporarily help improve memory and daily functioning in some people who have Alzheimer's disease. The improvement varies from person to person. These medicines don't prevent the disease from getting worse. But they may slow down symptoms of mental decline.
The main decision about using these usually isn't whether to try a medicine but when to begin and stop treatment. Treatment can be started as soon as Alzheimer's disease is diagnosed. If the medicines are effective, they are continued until the side effects outweigh the benefits or until the person no longer responds to the medicines.
Medicines for behavior problems
Other medicines may be tried to treat anxiety, agitated or hostile behavior, sleep problems, frightening or disruptive false beliefs (delusions), suspicion of others (paranoia), or hallucinations (seeing or hearing things that aren't there).
Before deciding to use medicine for behavior problems, try to see what is causing the behavior. If you know the cause, you may be able to find better ways of dealing with that behavior. You may be able to avoid treatment with medicine and the side effects and costs that come with it.
Medicines generally are used only for behavior problems when other treatments have failed. They may be needed if:
What to think about
Close monitoring and regular reevaluation of the person who has Alzheimer's disease are very important during treatment with medicine. As the disease progresses and symptoms change, the person's medicine needs often change. If you are a caregiver for someone with Alzheimer's disease, be alert for adverse drug reactions or side effects that further impair the person's ability to function.

My maternal grandmother, Malissa Jane WHITEMAN.
Dau of John Marshall "Marsh" WHITEMAN b Feb 15, 1828 in Finley,
Washington Co., PA and Eliza Jane BUCHANAN b June 3, 1831 in Greene Co.,
PA. They migrated into Wetzel County, WVA (once VA).
Eliza was the dau of James BUCHANAN b. 1787 and Sarah A. VANCAMP b.
1791. James was born in Maryland; Sarah in VA. James died in 1889 and
Sarah 1860 in Wetzel Co., VA. Tyler Ridge is just one of the areas
these lines resided in.
Other children of James BUCHANAN and Sarah A. VANCAMP:
1 - Stephen Jun 28, 1824 m. Mary ICIE (some spell it as ICE). My records
show that Stephen was born somewhere in VA; died in Wetzel Co., WVA. The
ICE/ICIE family are abundant in my records from the 1800's in Wetzel,
VA/WV and my assumption is that Stephen might have been born in Wetzel
or Tyler, VA which both later became WVA. Stephen was also married to a
Millicent Jane (UNK to me at this time) might have been WORKMAN.
2 - Elizabeth b. 1811 (?) m. Stephen WATKINS; issue: Sarah and James
3 - Hannah b. 1818 Tyler Co., VA/WV, m. Wm. TRAVIS; Hannah is bured in
Tyler Ridge area of Tyler County.
4 - Sarah Ann b. 1835 Tyler Co., VA/WV, m. Jenkins YOUNG

look into this. Could be my gg !?!
6 - James b. 1838 (I've got records on his and need to drag them out
from basement). Will post anything I find.
7 - My gg Eliza Jane b. Ju 3, 1831 - d. Apr 2, 1922 Wetzel Co., VA/WV;
she had 10 children - posting will follow).
*NOTE: If you look on a map you'll see just how close these counties are
(along w/a few others) to the PA/MD lines. I live in MD so I'm pretty
familiar with the areas. Thou no one in my family has done this line
(yet) I'm making it this winters project as there are many loop holes here.
Thanks all.

Plant physiologist David Groeneveld started the Santa Fe consulting firm HydroBio 14 years ago to help farmers optimize their use of energy and water — two resources that are increasingly scarce and expensive.
Using data he collected over years as a consultant, Groeneveld devised a way — using satellite data and software-based technology — for farmers to precisely monitor and control how much water their mobile center-pivot irrigation machines emit, reducing energy and water costs and boosting yields.
Groeneveld's trademarked innovation — Targeted Irrigation Management, or TIM — is a software program that allows a farmer to remotely direct pivot machines to follow a water schedule customized for specific crops, soils and climates.
The impact of this invention could be far-reaching in a nation where the average farm has 50 pivot machines, according to HydroBio vice president Bridget Adams. Small farms are increasingly being aggregated into agribusinesses that use large-scale crop production methods. And climate change is making the wise use of water and energy more critical than ever.
HydroBio is poised to commercialize its product by 2014 after final proof-of-concept testing in the Texas Panhandle this growing season, she said. Were it not for the involvement of Los Alamos Connect, the central economic development program of Los Alamos National Security LLC and Los Alamos National Laboratory, the project would not be this close to its market debut, she acknowledged.
A Wealth of Resources
Groeneveld and his team made use of a suite of intensive, customized business support services that Los Alamos Connect offers at no cost to qualified companies and entrepreneurs in Northern New Mexico. Besides the expert business coaching and market research assistance provided by Connect, the company received technical assistance from LANL through the New Mexico Small Business Assistance program to install cybersecurity features in its satellite communication network.
HydroBio received a $75,000 Venture Acceleration Fund award from Los Alamos Connect and pooled it with a $100,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Small Business Innovation Research program to test the technology on thousands of acres of irrigated farm land in the Texas panhandle, according to Adams. In early June, the company received approval for the second phase of SBIR money — a $450,000 grant — to expand and complete research and development.
The market research by Connect's Market Intelligence program helped HydroBio executives get a realistic assessment of the potential market for their product, Adams said. And the expert panelists assembled by the Springboard program to review and critique the company's business model offered valuable feedback about HydroBio's strategy and suggested where the company could find more funding.
"It was great to go into a room and brainstorm with people," Adams said of the successful entrepreneurs from a variety of industries and the agricultural economist who sat on the panel. "It didn't change our course, but it clarified our decisions about how to market and capitalize" on the product.
HydroBio, like many companies, began with a great idea. But, Adams said, "A great idea is worth nothing unless you can do something with it."

- Hello all.
- On the 15th November 1985, I was beaten and tortured. I was kept in a basement, and injected on a daily basis. The basement was owned by some coder kid. He had computers everywhere, and developed his own version of windows or something, but it was orange. It was cool.
- He fed me some stuff, I don't know what it was and he always used to speak the same words to me "oh one oh one one oh".
- One day very recently, I started up one of the computers. It booted, and it ran Mac OS X. It became mine. I learnt for the first time how to use a computer. I downloaded apps, I sent emails and I had fun. I was beaten until I was deformed, and I still am deformed. I don't think of myself as a person any more. Not a real person. I can see, but I can't talk. I am fed liquid through needle.
- So what do I need as help. I need you. Everyone. I need someone clever, someone smart. Because yesterday, with that computer, I escaped. I received all your emails and found I had a webpage for myself, apparently. And then, I chose two people. Two people worthy of my experiments.
- I'm looking for Nichole. I'm on my way to Washington, where she is. She's near Bellington, aren't you? Are you? You are! Wow.
- I'll then go to where P S is. I'll find him, wherever he is. I'll check Russia first. It's a big place.
- Why do I need them? I need them to join with me. I can't go on alone so I need other people. During these tens of years, I've been learning a lot. Learning about transplants and medical procedures. I'll be able to eat again, with the help of your bodies. Perhaps I'll look normal again. That's all I want.
- If you don't want to become part of me, that's fine. But you let me out of here. The padlock codes were 010110 110011 101000 0001. And you helped me get them. I'm not smart enough to solve a riddle myself. So I got you to do it. You did it. You solved it. You solved the riddle. You let me out. And now I'm coming for you. And you better start running.

The Son That Former NFL Player Rae Carruth Tried To Kill Turns 18, Still Suffering From Permanent Brain Damage
The former wide receiver, who plotted the murder of his ex, Cherica Adams, is scheduled to be released from prison soon.
BET CEO Debra Lee recently wrote about her appreciation for Tony Award-winning actress Cicely Tyson, a close friend and woman she admires, in an essay as part of the "Women Rule" series featured on Politico.com.
Tyson took home the Tony Award for Best Actress and the Drama Desk Award for Best Actress for her performance in the Broadway play A Trip to Bountiful. Lee spoke further on the "generous spirit" behind all of the awards and success in her essay:
What the awards don't reveal is her truly generous spirit, her strong resolve and her passion for ensuring that the next generation has the tools to succeed. I've had the pleasure of admiring her and the honor of knowing her for many years. If she's pleased with you, you know it. If she's not, you know that, too. I've felt the warmth of her hug, and every now and then, received a word of advice with a knowing look. She's always seeking higher ground and encouraging others to get there, too.
She's a woman to admire, but not only for what she's done. She should also be admired for what she would not do. Cicely recognized the power of the medium and made a choice early in her career to only accept roles that sent a positive message to women — especially women of color. She used her career as a platform to make a statement.

"Growing numbers of IT professionals have been looking towards Linux for a number of reasons: price, stability, and plenty of inexpensive or free software to name a few. Whether businesses will find strong enough reasons to choose Linux over its formidable rival, Microsoft Windows NT, is another question."
"The corporate IT community has begun to embrace Linux as a web server, file server, and primary platform for a number departmental applications. IT professionals have taken a keen interest in the usability of Linux as a viable alternative to Windows NT for corporate network services. Some view the less crash-prone Linux OS as more reliable than NT for mission-critical applications."
"The growing curiosity about Linux and dissatisfaction with Microsoft is likely to extend further into the corporate market, and even into home-PC markets."

The Isle of Man TT Race finished yesterday with the usual worries from locals about the dangers involved proving unfounded in this, the most dangerous race in the Isle of Man sporting calendar.
The race which takes place at an average speed of over 120mph, regularly poses a threat to the public, animals and property, with more than three miles of garden fencing having to be replaced after the race in 2007.
In 2006, four trees were damaged when competitors' bikes ran into them, and three years ago, a flower bed was ruined beyond repair when a juggernaut carrying motorcycles ploughed over them. Pet owners have also complained that their animals panic at the sound of the bikes' engines.
The worst year for the TT was 2001, when eight necks were broken, six of them on swans attempting to cross the road near the lake. Several missing competitors are also thought to be in the same body of water.
This year's TT, though, passed off without major incident, and only four people lost their lives.
Local resident Bob Crank looked relieved as he told reporters:
"We had ordered a million fence posts to repair the damage, but it was a quiet race. The posts will now be used to make coffins for the dead."

NORTH HOLLYWOOD (CBS) — Two men were shot and killed early Saturday in North Hollywood gang violence.
Police said the shooting occurred near 8140 Coldwater Canyon Avenue about 1:30 a.m., according to the North Hollywood Police Station.
Authorities believe the two men tried to enter a party and then shooting broke out. One man, who sustained a single gunshot wound to the head, was pronounced dead at the scene.
The other victim had a gunshot wound to the chest. He was taken to Kaiser Panorama City Medical Center where he later died from his wound.
The two men were identified as 22-year-old Wilson Pierre of Los Angeles and 19-year-old Deon Bastian of Fontana.
No suspect information was released but police said Saturday evening that a Sony high-def handheld camcorder was shooting the party and they believe it might be crucial in identifying suspects and the gunman.
Police urged anyone with information regarding this double homicide, including the location of the missing camera, to contact North Hollywood homicide detectives at (818) 623-4075 or -1-877LAPD-24-7.

Judge dismisses suit in veterans parade collision with train
ODESSA, Texas (AP) - A Texas judge has dismissed a lawsuit stemming from a 2012 collision between a freight train and a veterans' parade float that killed four veterans.
The lawsuit was filed against Union Pacific Railroad by 17 people who were injured or lost relatives in the Midland accident.
Court records show a judge sided with UP in a summary judgment late Tuesday. A plaintiff's attorney says he'll appeal.
The trial abruptly stopped last month when UP's attorneys objected to testimony about video from the train. The plaintiffs were trying to prove the train's crew was negligent, their lone remaining claim that the judge later tossed after UP noted federal investigators blamed the city and parade organizers for the crash.
UP reached a confidential settlement with 26 other people last month.
