Now as to my knowledge no one else has done this here that I can find. I'm not quite sure where I should be posting this but I'm not going to search around and bother individual users to do so like I've noticed some do. So posting this thread here I feel is adequate.. Here it is... Plain and simple I want someone whom I can trust to just overlook my habits of coding with vb.net and to see if there is anything I can adjust before this project becomes way out of hand. I'm saying this because my current "sub" projects has just reached 2,000 lines and it's nowhere near complete. It contains a complex system of classes which are also new to me and that's were my main focus is at. This is the project I would like someone to look at and make comments wherever commenting is needed.
The project:
I'm working on quite an extensive project at the moment, well 2. One of which will actually be part of the other creating a whole project of many other projects. But since it's only me coding I feel one at a time is enough lol. The goal for this project is for it to be stand alone as well, which is why this one control contains nearly 20 classes. four of which are controls themselves. The sub project I'm asking for help on is my Schedule Grid Control, which will simply be like most business scheduling software.
Little Background:
My history is mostly with vb6 since I was 15, and being the way I was I pushed vb6 to it's limits. For instance I had my "winamp clone" media player which supported full skinning, anti-alias bordering with my image support being layers of png files. Using fMod, a third party supplier for audio processing mostly for gaming purposes which suited my needs perfect and I was able to accomplish a lot. Such as fading between songs, full bandwidth equalizer and a graphical equalizer as well! Not to mention it involved some multithreading as well which to my knowledge at the time was believed to be impossible with vb6.. which is wasn't . Now having said all that the switch from 6 to .net for me was a tad bit rough, stopped coding for a few years then hoped into vb.net when 2010 was released. Bumpy at first, but I eventually began to flow. I began to love it! Just there are tons of small pieces of information I know I'm missing that most would learn through books or school.. For me I took classes in upper middle school but before that I had already taught myself enough to build a networking net send messengers which searched the schools network for every computer so as to select one and begin a chat.. If you could imagine this got me in trouble. But that was my only class room knowledge so EVERYTHING I HAVE LEARNED HAD BEEN THROUGH EXAMPLE. The college I'm at now has a horrible computer department and no classes for visual basic or any other language in fact. So I'm stuck till I transfer. This is why I signed up here
So if there is anyone here, preferably an MVP that could help I would greatly greatly! appreciate it.

This is a fantastic time of year for seasonal vegetables.
This is a fantastic time of year for seasonal vegetables.
Published: Fri 11 Oct 2013
In this country we often eat fresh peas and beans from the UK but most of our dried pulses are imported. The really odd thing is that we have grown fava beans in East Anglia for years and import them dried

In this sustainable food blog I've mentioned before that meat is a food we need to eat less of, for our health and the sake of the environment (not hard to do when our vegetables are so delicious!).

The above quote is from the dev David Bradley. While it's not what I would call ideal, it does mean that this game is not an arcade shooter. This ends the edit to this this post.
Because it is and will remain so, unless the targeting mechanic is changed. Watching the videos, two things just keep bothering me. The first is that the crosshairs don't move, the entire mech is moving around them but they are nailed to the center of the screen, which is typical of an arcade shooter. Yes, I know that previous MW titles did the same thing, but just because they did it, doesn't mean it was a good thing. The second, is everytime the mech fires all the beam weapons converge exactly where the crosshairs are, also something that only happens in arcade shooters.
Why should the crosshairs move, because they are super imposed on the viser of the neurohelmet so if the pilot's head moves they move, and it doesn't matter if the pilot is moving his head or if his head is being translated by the mechs movement, in both cases the crosshairs will move.
The second one requires a bit more explination as to why it's not acceptable in anything but an arcade shooter. So lets start simple with a rifle and a scope. Well make it a laser rifle to remove ballistics from this. Scopes must be zeroed for a specific range otherwise the crosshairs will never indicate where the beam will strike, in this case we'll say it's zeroed for 300m. Now think of a flat line, that line is the laser, on that line mark a point 300m from the starting point. Now we'll say that the scope is mounted 2in. above the rifle, so mark a point 2in above the start of the laser line. Now draw a line, starting from the point 2in above the laser and draw it straight through the mark at 300m on the laser line and continue into infinity.
This is your sight line. You'll note that the sight line only meets the laser at one point, that means without adjustments the crosshairs will only show you where the laser will strike when the target is exactly 300m away. If the target is closer, the sight line rises above the laser, which means your shot will actually be below your aim point. If the target is farther away, the sight line is below the laser, which means your shot will be above your aim point. And no you can't just mount them parallel and shoot 2in high and call it good, as the distance that would represent 2in in the scope will get smaller as the target get farther away, so can't just use a mil-dot and figure out how many dots is 2in.
Now the situation gets even more complex in a mech, the 'scope', ie your crosshairs are not mounted a fixed distance above the weapon, it's offset and they move with the pilots head. So the first the T&T(Target & Tracking computer) in the mech has to do is figure out how the pilots head is oriented in 3D space (the above rifle and scope was only in 2D), once it knows this it can figure out what you have under the crosshairs and range it. It will need to range it more than once to deterimine if it's moveing and in what direction, it can then figure out at what angles in 3D space each weapon needs to be at in order to hit that target, where it is if it's not moving or where it thinks it will be if it's moving and finally it can move those weapons to that alignment.
What does all this mean? Simple, it takes time to get weapons aimed and if you don't allow for that time then your weapons will not hit what your aiming at. How much time? Well rather than figuring out what all this would take in realtime, I would suggest we give it a value that just 'feels right'. For simplicities sake we'll assume that each part of the process remains a constant and call that time X. So it takes X time units for the weapons achieve alignment with whatever the pilot is targeting. That means everytime you move to a new target, it takes X time units for the weapons to align. It also means that if the target is moving or you are moving the weapons will only be aligned exactly with the crosshairs if the computer guessed the location correctly, which means the other mech had to continue moving exactly as before or the weapons will be off. The same goes for the firing mech, and it even more difficult for the computer to be right if both are moving.
Now you'll note that I haven't talked about ballistics, or things like gear lash and barrel whip, which will all add to the inaccuracy of targeting, yet I have shown that the weapons even if perfectly aligned with mounts that have no play in them, can not under most battle conditions be perfectly aligned to the crosshair at all time, it just can't be done. No, saying that the mech just constantly aligns them does not change this, it just establishes that there will always be a 'rolling' delay of X time units when you change targets and it will put excessive wear on the mechanisms that align the guns causing them to wear more quickly increasing the 'slop' in the system and therefore making it more inaccurate as a whole. Plus mechs use their arms for balance, just like we do, if they are constantly trying to aim the arm weapons this will make the mech's side to side movement greater for the pilot when moving. Don't believe me, set up a mirror that you can walk at and mimic the arms of a warhammer by holding them bent and ridgedly at your sides, you will see your head goes side to side far more than if you just walk normally towards it with your arms swinging naturally.
This is why the fps mechanic used in arcade shooters, is not and will not ever be a realitic method of aiming. It's point and shoot not aim and shoot, there is a big difference. One requires that you actually hold over your target till the weapons are aimed the other can be used to great sucess by people who can time their button press with the crosshair passing over their intended target.
So how else to do it? Well, I'm open to suggestions as my preferred method is probably to sim for most people. I would prefer that all the weapons aim points be tracked all the time and represented in the HUD with simple geometric shapes, when the crosshair is over the target you want you tell the mech to aim and those shapes 'snap' towards the crosshair, how close they get would vary, but think ball park, then they would continue to move more slowly towards the cross hair until they get realively close. If anyone wants an explination of this, I will, but as I figure it's too much for most people, I won't add further to this post's length. A far simpler means of doing it would just be a reducing cone of fire, but as I said I'm open to sugestions, I do however believe that the 'point and shoot' mechanic has to go or this is not any kind of sim.

The images in those opening credits have burned inside my crystallized intelligence. There was something so inherently frightening about Space:1999. I sensed the creators intentions regarding the series even as a child. How come the critics could not? My mind, as Byrne suggested, was open to the possibilities before me. Who knew a young child would understand the limitless possibilities of space and its potentially dark forces better than a bell-bottomed pant-wearing critic? I knew what was out there was beyond my understanding and yet I was beguiled. Why weren't others with a fully developed mind? The series was far more sophisticated than my young mind could comprehend yet I embraced the essence of the series whenever it reached my television screen. Not all, but many critics simply applied a near Pavlovian critical response to Space:1999 reflective of the influence of Star Trek: The Original Series. Though I didn't fully recognize it, I viscerally understood the intrinsic differences between the two programs on an instinctive level and there was something incredibly spooky about Space:1999 that captured me forever.
Koenig and company respond to the Nuclear Generating Area as Anton regains consciousness. He is clearly ready to get back to work, but Russell will have none of it. Keonig wants the area fully reviewed by Bergman. Alpha depends on it. In the Medical Section, Anton is hooked up to a monitor and with a single power blink the monitor dies. Russell doesn't make the connection to Zoref and the malfunction is believed to be a mere technical aberration. Russell orders Anton to rest. Russell requests Mathias fix the blown monitor. Later Mathias would inform her the monitor is just fine, but that the energy cells were found to be drained.
Lighting is key to the atmosphere found in this David Tomblin directed entry.
The Force Of Lighting.
Muir writes, "The essence and driving concept behind Space:1999 is that space is a mystery. Sometimes it is frightening and sometimes it is wondrous. Is it really necessary to explain where the alien originated, how it thinks, why it chose Zoref, where it is going, and so forth? If all those questions were answered, the mystery would be gone, slaughtered in the rush to find a convincing scientific explanation or psychological motivation. There would be no time for horror, no room for awe, and no sense that the Alphans are strangers in a strange land." What a terrific rendering of the inane critical response delivered upon Force Of Life. Muir asks if Alec Guinness understood the force in Star Wars? The answer is no. Did we understand it? No. Let us further illustrate the disaster that is the point of the reveal. When Liam Neeson attempted an explanation for the force in Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace [1999; released after the writing of Muir's book], the explanation sounded silly, ludicrous and sucked the mystery out of something enjoyed by Star Wars fans for decades. How many of you rolled your eyes? This can't possibly be what the citics wanted? But the omission of a spelled out explanation was decried by critics of Force Of Life. Folks, this is Space:1999 for cryin' out loud! Critics never recognized the mysteries inherent to the series build. Besides maybe the alien picked Zoref for his cool name.

Although it was nice seeing the Squirtle and Wartortle, this episode was boring in my opinion. At least they managed to get the job done!
I think this episode is overrated. However, I still like it, 7/10. The puns were funny. And the idea of Water Pokemon as firemen was cool as well!

It was cool seeing Squirtle whip out the old Squirtle Squad sunglasses. I was also glad that Squirtle and Wartortle managed to save that kid from the burning building at the end. But other than that, the episode was a little boring. As soon as I saw that Aidan's firefighting force consisted of members of the Squirtle line, I was expecting the rest of the Squirtle Squad to show up...and I was a little disappointed that it didn't (which in hindsight seems like a dumb thing to be disappointed by...)
Made on Pokecharms.com
I think this episode was pretty alright - not downright awful. Just seeing the whole Squirtle tree and firefighters was awesome and the rivalry between the Squirtle and Wartortle was a nice addition to the whole synopsis too.
It was an okay episode. It was nice to see Squirtle have a rivalry with a Pokemon. And Wartortle was the perfect Pokemon for it. I liked the Misty took control of setting out the fire. Even though she didn't succeed.

The rivalry between Squirtle and Wartortle was interesting, I liked it when Squirtle and Wartortle saved the boy. It was nice to see the Blastoise team, Wartortle team and Squirtle team. Overall, this was a great episode.

This new Mayo Clinic book on pregnancy provides you with practical information and reassurance on pregnancy and childbirth. Compiled by Mayo Clinic experts in obstetrics, it offers a clear, thorough and reliable reference for this exciting and sometimes unpredictable journey. This comprehensive book includes:
A month-by-month look at mom and baby
In-depth "Decision Guides" to help you make informed decisions on topics such as how to select a health care provider, prenatal testing options, pain relief for childbirth, and many others
An easy-to-use reference guide that covers topics such as morning sickness, heartburn, back pain, headaches and yeast infections, among others
Information on pregnancy health concerns, including preterm labor, gestational diabetes and preeclampsia, along with an overview on being pregnant when you have pre-existing health conditions such as asthma, diabetes or hyperthyroidism
Good book with a variety of topics concerning pregnancy such as morning sickness, constipation, and contractions. Great for first time pregnancy.
I recommend this book to all moms to be, especially women experiencing pregnancy for the first time. The book is first divided up into four parts. Part 1: Pregnancy, childbirth and your newborn. Part 2: Decision guides for pregnancy, childhood and parenthood. Part 3: Pregnancy reference guide. Part 4: Complications of pregnancy and childbirth.
The first part is broken down into months and then weeks, taking you step by step through exactly what is happening. Informing you of what you may be feeling and what your doctor should have gone over with you. My husband and I would sit down at the beginning of each week and read how our baby was developing. It helped us bond over the child and brought new excitement each week. When my pregnancy hit a complication the section on complications was useful in helping me understand, in simple terms, what was happening.
This book isn't interjected with stories from other women or much emotion at all. If you're looking for a book that deals with more of the emotional side or tips from other moms I would not suggest this book.

The train cars always smelled a tad like rotting meat, but there was little one could do. What with so many demonic presences, none of the staff ever bothered to do a little "sweeping" of whatever Abyssals decided to hang around after their former human hosts stepped off the train. Luckily, said Abyssals had no chance at possessing the train itself; it was already held by a Western Demon bound by a pact.
Nevertheless, it was always a bit uneasy with so many individuals walking about having some sort of infernal soul attached to them in some way. Young children hung onto dolls, likely possessed by an Abyssal. Eastern warriors displayed rusted swords containing the spirits of Oni. Imps devilishly twiddled their fingers sitting beside their respective masters. One could've sworn that the next suite over held a flesh and blood Western Demon too big to stand properly.
The train was narrow and its windows were ornate. It was rickety, but by the decorations around, one could assume this train was not to be scoffed at, especially considering the train could hear you. Outside, dark waters rippled past reflecting the train's own shining carapace. Land distanced itself from the train slowly, as if backing away in fear, or watching patiently as the infernal carrier was finally out of sight; it made sure the train actually left.
Their destination was Gerasas Academy, a tremendous establishment situated atop the craggy isle of Gerasas within an equally enormous lake. Before long, land was but an afterthought as the lake overtook the horizon completely. Leading directly to the gates of the university, none could look out the window and see ahead to gaze at its black spires and fiery windows. They had to await for a complete stop before they could see their future place of residence and education.
For many, however, it might end up being their place of death.
But few cared for such a possibility. Such words were written in the fine print of their letters, and what with all the demonic activity worldwide, it wasn't like they were avoiding death anytime soon. Here they were to be trained to defy death in all his forms, or employ his scythe themselves.
Many rooms lined the train carts, housing demons and humans alike, and even amidst the train's commotion, their rabble and speech could be heard from within the halls. What strange forms and people lied within them? And what would the future hold for the young diabolists who aspired to rise at Gerasas Academy?
Fame? Death? Or something greater?

Since 2009 alone, Krafft has won eight first place photography awards from the Virginia Press Association and 16 other top honors for her outstanding work in news, entertainment, portrait and special sections. In her years, Ms. Krafft has brought the paper back almost 100 awards of excellence.
In addition to her keen eye for photography, Krafft is blessed with a near-prefect photographic memory for the people, places and history of Alexandria and Northern Virginia.
Born, raised and educated in Alexandria, she began her career in a home dark room with her grandfather teaching her the patient technique of developing film. Following College at American University, Krafft worked for six years in a black and white photo lab, Washington House.
A lucky phone call to the lab from the magazine editor of American Banker landed Krafft her first professional free lance job to photograph the chairman of the Federal Reserve testifying before the House Banking Committee.
Within a short time, Krafft's photos found their way into the business and A sections of the New York Times, Time Magazine, The New York Daily News, The Washington Post and numerous other trade publications.
Her outstanding freelance work allowed Krafft the flexibility to raise her son Shannon and several cats
Before joining the Connection Newspapers, Krafft covered Washington events for both Puerto Rican newspapers, El Nuevo Dia and the San Juan Star and worked for seven years as a photographer for the governor's office of Puerto Rico in Washington.
In describing her photography, famed Washington journalist Bill Mayhugh said her photos "showed all subjects with dignity, regardless."

- American without Arab roots almost wins "Arabs Got Talent"
An American singer with no Arab heritage nearly took the top prize in the "Arabs Got Talent" television show this weekend, breaking into the top three alongside a Palestinian artist and a Syrian dance troupe. Jennifer Grout, a 23-year-old from Massachusetts, fell just short in the end, but her renditions of classical Arabic songs had stunned some audiences - especially given that she only speaks a little Arabic.

Uniting 10 institutes at the University of London to form the UK's national centre for the support of researchers and the promotion of research in the humanities.
'Rethinking the senses' is a ground-breaking interdisciplinary research project which will bring together philosophers, psychologists and neuroscientists to work together in entirely new ways, including planning laboratory experiments together. The aim is to further our understanding of how all our senses work together to shape our conscious experiences of the outside world and of our own bodies.
This three-year project, which starts this autumn, is based at the Institute of Philosophy's Centre for the Study of the Senses (CenSes) – in collaboration with the universities of Glasgow, Oxford and Warwick. The project is funded by a major research grant of £1,950,000 from the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC).
2013-14 ST Lee Visiting Professorial Fellow
Brian Ferneyhough, currently William H Bonsall Professor at Stanford University, is one of the most original and influential composers in contemporary music. His work, recognised by such international awards as the Ernst von Siemens Musikpreis, evokes a compressed musical world of dislocated events, colliding pulses and shimmering textures. Prof Ferneyhough will be based at the School, in close association with the Institute of Musical Research, in November 2013.
A programme of talks and performances with Prof Ferneyhough will take place in the School and elsewhere. The events are open to the public.

I bought Mafia 1 - loved it, replayed it twice. On my top 3 of best games (I) ever played.
Mafia 2 - loved it, not quite reaching the prequel but good, some flaws yes, but I love the small details an the general impression. A game well done.
With the DLS:s someting went really really bad.
I am now halfway through Joes adventures after suffering through Jimmys revenge.
They both have one thing in common - No soul, no story, rushed generic missions on repeat.
I am not a guy who bothers to post posts like this one, but I get genuinly disturbed by the lost opportunities here. Lost haven have SO MUCH more to offer than the main game, Mafia 2 but DLC one was a disappoinment. "Joes" is so far just as bad imo. After a good start, some story, cutscenes and the timeout from LH its straight back into the generic hasted missions.
Example 1 "Warn these guys from the police" - I drive there as fast as I can, rush towards the guy, it says press E to warn him. I Press E - Nothing happens.
Press E again, no reaction, no "thanks buddy, Im off!"
Press E again. Then I realise the next mission target is alit and that I am already done here. The guy I warned has been warned silently apparently.
No voice work for a simple DLC - am I expecting too much?
Example 2. Whats with the f-n timer? I can defend some missions is and should have a timelimit, but here all of em does. Without any apparent reason, except to challenge other singleplayers by beating their time. I could not care less, Mafia is a single player game, all about the atmosphere, the devs are surely missing their target audience by miles here! I want to drive my fifties car slow and gentle, take in the so neatly worked ambience outside the window while playing but that is not an option here. I have to rush, run over civilians in order to park my frickin car in a garage in time, or replay the mission from pixel one if I'm one second too late.
I love the game, but I hate what you are doing to it the DLC:s, the memory of Mafia 1 and 2 is soiled by these crappy downloads, and it makes me pretty sure I wont replay the maingame or buy any future downloads. You have all the tools to make great DLC:s and I would be happy to pay more for good ones, but so far I am far from impressed.
I hope "Joes" picks up the last 40% and I hope you pull your act together for next download.

Awana is an exciting discipleship program for boys and girls, K-5 through 5th grade, which meets each Wednesday evening from 6:00 - 7:30.
Sparks (K5 - 2nd Grade): The Awana club for children in kindergarten through second grade builds on the material taught in our preschool club. The aim of the curriculum is to take youngsters a step deeper into God's Word while giving unsaved boys and girls regular opportunities to hear the Gospel and come to faith in Jesus Christ. After being immersed in solid foundational teaching at the preschool level, boys and girls frequently come to an understanding of their need to trust Christ as their personal Savior while in Sparks.
Room Assignments
T-n-T (3rd - 5th Grade): The name Truth & Training reflects the passion of Awana to teach third through fifth grade boys and girls the truth of God's Word and to train them to follow Christ in their daily lives. Our goal is that many of today's young people will become tomorrow's church leaders. T&T is the program that trains the leaders of tomorrow — today.

I want to see your older high end gpu setups from back in the day! 6800 Ultra's in SLI, dual voodoo's, X850's! Anything of the like from all generations. Lets see those old badass gaming setups. Hopefully everyone has some pics from the past
This is the only "older" card I have left. X800GTO Unlocked to 16 pipes! Doesn't work anymore though.
Seeing this thread I decided to pull this out of my still functional and rather dirty P4 rig just to look at it. Sapphire X1950pro 512mb AGP High detail & high performance goodness. At 1024 X 768.
Don't have'em any more but I was a proud owner of the HD2900Pro Flashed to XT and the first of its kind the HD3870X2. It was so fun overclocking them and getting them to Run Crysis. Those cards taught me a lot.
I used to have one but it was a Diamond (same card without stickers on the HSF). I don't have it anymore but here are some shots of my old HIS HD4650 DDR3 with aftermarket cooler (one of those $5 aluminium things on ebay). I managed to OC it with HD4670 clocks. The rig (before I installed the HSF): Not exactly old or high end but it was one of the best AGP cards money could buy.
A few: 7800GTX256 SLi X1950XTX Crossfire 2900XT Crossfire 3870x2 Crossfire 4870 1GB Crossfire: 5870 Crossfire:
Hehe I could dig thru the closet and go older but this one was my first "killer rig" Opty 170 and X1900XTX's under water.
Posting to sub. Going to go find pics of my 3x3850 256mb in xfire, currently still running dual 3870X2 setup, 7800GS AGP, ti 4200@>ti4800 clocks (still holds highest stable clocks record), I have more that I hope to find.
Some of my old 4200 TI's and 1 4800 TI and a 5970 4 gig toxic just for comparison lol.. Old duel gpu's 9800gx2's and 4870 x2's
2900XT....still a great card....and what a power draw! I love my 2900xt 1gb, wish i had a pair to show but alas I only have one
Thanks man It's in a pretty legendary machine: Celeron 300A @ 504MHz, stock cooling Abit BH-6 motherboard 192MB PC-150 RAM 80GB Hard Drive 2x Voodoo 2000 12MB in SLI S3 Trio 64+ 1MB 2D card
ASUS X1950Pro?!!! 512MB right? I had the sapphire version back in the day, the 256mb model though since I had a tiny monitor. It was the bomb!
I should post my 2 x Sapphire 4850 equipped with Zalman VF1000s edit: cards are laying around, but very dusty >_< out of air atm too, used it all cleaning my case top to bottom for the new z68 mobo and i5 2400.

As a nuclear-powered icebreaker crunched through 10 feet of August ice at the North Pole, Russian sailors readied two deepwater submersibles for their two-and-a-half-mile descent. Dubbed Mir 1 and Mir 2 (mir meaning "world"), the subs were aptly named—their deployment was about to catch the world's attention. A hole opened in the ship's wake, and the subs were lowered. At the bottom of the Arctic Ocean, one sub took seabed samples, the ostensible purpose of the mission, while the other deposited a titanium capsule containing a Russian flag, symbolically claiming this undersea turf for its homeland.
Moscow's 2007 stunt was mocked widely for its ostentatious flouting of diplomatic etiquette but had its intended effect: other countries were rattled. Canadian prime minister Stephen Harper scurried to the Arctic for a sovereignty tour, and the Danish science minister released preliminary findings that the North Pole was, in fact, Danish.

Air Masses and Fronts (Encyclopedia of Science)
An air mass is a large body of air that, at any one height, has a relatively steady temperature and moisture content throughout. Air masses typically cover areas ranging from hundreds of thousands to millions of square miles. A front is the boundary at which two air masses of different temperature and moisture content meet. The role of air masses and fronts in the development of weather systems was first recognized by the Norwegian father and son team of Vilhelm and Jacob Bjerknes in the 1920s. These two phenomena are still studied intensively as predictors of future weather patterns.
Source regions
Air masses form when a body of air comes to rest over an area that has an unvarying topography, or consistent surface features. Deserts, plains, and oceans typically cover very wide areas with relatively few topographical variations. In such areas, called source regions, large masses of air can accumulate without being broken apart by mountains, land/water intersections, or other surface features. A stable atmosphere, in which high winds are absent, is also necessary for the formation of an air mass.
Classification. Air masses are classified according to a two-letter system. The first letter, written in lower case, indicates whether the air mass

Air Masses and Fronts (World of Earth Science)
An air mass is an extensive body of air that has a relatively homogeneous temperature and moisture content over a significant altitude. Air masses typically cover areas of a few hundred, thousand, or million square kilometers. A front is the boundary at which two air masses of different temperature and moisture content meet. The role of air masses and fronts in the development of weather systems was first appreciated by the Norwegian father and son team of Vilhelm and Jacob Bjerknes in the 1920s. Today, these two phenomena are still studied intensively as predictors of future weather patterns.
Air masses form when a body of air comes to rest over an area large enough for it to take on the temperature and humidity of the land or water below it. Certain locations on the earth's surface possess the topographical characteristics that favor the development of air masses. The two most important of these characteristics are topographic regularity and atmospheric stability. Deserts, plains, and oceans typically cover very wide areas with relatively few topographical irregularities. In such regions, large masses of air can accumulate without being broken apart by mountains, land/water interfaces, and other features that would break up the air mass.
The absence of consistent wind movements also favors the development of an air mass. In regions where cyclonic or anticyclonic storms are common, air masses obviously cannot develop easily.
The system by which air masses are classified reflects the fact that certain locations on the planet possess the topographic and atmospheric conditions that favor air mass development. That system uses two letters to designate an air mass. One letter, written in upper case, indicates the approximate latitude (and, therefore, temperature) of the region: A for arctic; P for polar; E for equatorial; T for tropical. The distinctions between arctic and polar on the one hand, and equatorial and tropical on the other are relatively modest. The first two terms (arctic and polar) refer to cold air masses, and the second two (equatorial and tropical) to warm air masses.
A second letter, written in lower case, indicates whether the air mass forms over land or sea and, hence, the relative amount of moisture in the mass. The two designations are c for continental (land) air mass and m for maritime (water) air mass.
The two letters are then combined to designate both temperature and humidity of an air mass. One source region of arctic air masses, for example, is the northern-most latitudes of Alaska, upper Canada, and Greenland. Thus, air masses developing in this source region are designated as cA (cold, land) air masses. Similarly, air masses developing over the Gulf of Mexico, a source region for maritime tropical air masses, are designated as mT (warm, water) air masses.
The movement of air masses across the earth's surface is an important component of the weather that develops in an area. For example, weather patterns in North America are largely dominated by the movement of about a half dozen air masses that travel across the continent on a regular basis. Two of these air masses are the cP and cA systems that originate in Alaska and central Canada and sweep down over the northern United States during the winter months. These air masses bring with them cold temperatures, strong winds, and heavy precipitation, such as the snowstorms commonly experienced in the Great Lakes states and New England. The name "Siberian Express" is sometimes used to describe some of the most severe storms originating from these cP and cA air masses.
From the south, mT air masses based in the Gulf of Mexico, the Caribbean, and western Atlantic Ocean move northward across the southern states, bringing hot, humid weather that is often accompanied by thunderstorms in the summer.
Weather along the western coast of North America is strongly influenced by mP air masses that flow across the region from the north Pacific Ocean. These masses actually originate as cP air over Siberia, but are modified to mP masses as they move over the broad expanse of the Pacific, where they often pick up moisture. When an mP mass strikes the west coast of North America, it releases its moisture in the form of showers and, in northern regions, snow.
The term front was suggested by the Bjerkneses because the collisions of two air masses reminded them of a battlefront during a military operation. That collision often results in warlike weather phenomena between the two air masses.
Fronts develop when two air masses with different temperatures and, usually, different moisture content come into contact with each other. When that happens, the two bodies of air act almost as if they are made of two different materials, such as oil and water. Imagine what happens, for example, when oil is dribbled into a glass of water. The oil seems to push the water out of its way and, in return, the water pushes back on the oil. A similar shoving match takes place between warm and cold air masses along a front. The exact nature of that shoving match depends on the relative temperature and moisture content of the two air masses and the relative movement of the two masses.
One possible situation is that in which a mass of cold air moving across the earth's surface comes into contact with a warm air mass. When that happens, the cold air mass may force its way under the warm air mass like a snow shovel wedging its way under a pile of snow. The cold air moves under the warm air because the former is denser. The boundary formed between these two air masses is a cold front.
Cold fronts are usually accompanied by a falling barometer and the development of large cumulonimbus clouds that bring rain showers and thunderstorms. During the warmer seasons, the clouds form as moisture-rich air inside the warm air mass, which is cooled as it rises; water subsequently condenses out as precipitation. Cold fronts are represented on weather maps by means of solid lines that contain solid triangles at regular distances along them. The direction in which the triangles point shows the direction in which the cold front is moving.
A situation opposite to the preceding is one in which a warm air mass approaches and then slides up and over a cold air mass. The boundary formed in this case is a warm front. As the warm air mass meets the cold air mass, it is cooled and some of the moisture held within it condenses to form clouds. In most cases, the first clouds to appear are high cirrus clouds, followed sometime later by stratus and nimbostratus clouds.
Warm fronts are designated on weather maps by means of solid lines to which are attached solid half circles. The direction in which the half circles point shows the direction in which the warm front is moving.
A more complex type of front is one in which a cold front overtakes a slower-moving warm front. When that happens, the cold air mass behind the cold front eventually catches up and comes into contact with the cold air mass underneath the warm front. The boundary between these two cold air masses is an occluded front. A distinction can be made depending on whether the approaching cold air mass is colder or warmer than the second air mass beneath the warm front. The former is called a cold-type occluded front, while the latter is a warm-type occluded front. Once again, the development of an occluded front is accompanied by the formation of clouds and, in most cases, by steady and moderate precipitation. An occluded front is represented on a weather map by means of a solid line that contains, alternatively, both triangles and half circles on the same side of the line.
In some instances, the collision of two air masses results in a stand-off. Neither mass is strong enough to displace the other, and essentially no movement occurs. The boundary between the air masses in this case is known as a stationary air mass and is designated on a weather map by a solid line with triangles and half circles on opposite sides of the line. Stationary fronts are often accompanied by fair, clear weather, although some light precipitation may occur.

SYRACUSE (AP) -- A former U.S. postmaster will spend 10 weekends in jail and five years on probation after admitting she stole more than $20,000 from the agency while running a small-town post office in northern New York.
Erin Woolschlager of Lowville pleaded guilty in May in U.S. District Court to a felony charge of misappropriation of postal funds. She also was ordered to perform 200 hours of community service and must pay back the $21,705 she took.
The 36-year-old Woolschlager was postmaster in Natural Bridge in Jefferson County when the thefts occurred.
Authorities say that beginning in December 2009, she cashed more than 100 Postal Service money orders totaling nearly $14,400 and stole $6,500 in postal funds. She used the money to pay bills and make purchases.

text: I got the "Siren Softshell" (I think that was the name for it)in the purple color in November of 2012, so I've had it for almost one year now. This jacket looks identical to mine, so I am assuming they are basically the same. I can't say enough wonderful things about it! It is not too heavy, so I can wear it in the fall and spring, and even in the winter I feel like it is warm enough for running errands and going to and from work and school. It has held up perfectly, and looks like new even after wearing it almost every day last winter, through the spring, and on camping trips this summer. I find the arms a bit wide, but I like this because I have the option of wearing a sweater underneath withought feeling like I can't raise my arms because of tightness. The inside is very soft as well. The hood is probably my favorite part-- it is big and covers my forehead which I am so happy about. I have long hair and when I put it up, most hoods do not fit over my head, but I have no problems with this one. I love it! I am hoping to get one in a different color for Christmas this year. Thanks for another top notch quality product, Merrell! This is why I will forever be a loyal customer!

Objective This study assessed the prevalence of general medical problems, stress or emotional problems, and alcohol problems reported by members of the armed forces of the United Kingdom after deployment in Iraq or Afghanistan. The study also identified types of help seeking and factors associated with help seeking.
Methods A total of 4,725 military personnel who were deployed to Iraq, Afghanistan, or both were asked about health problems attributable to the deployment and whether they had sought help for them. Data were collected through postal surveys between 2007 and 2009. Service and sociodemographic covariates and measures of current mental health, alcohol misuse, and functional impairment were included in the analyses.
Results Of the 19% who reported stress or emotional problems, 42% sought help, most commonly medical help (29%). Of the 6% who reported alcohol problems, 31% sought help, most commonly medical help (17%). Medical help seeking for stress or emotional problems was associated with being female, holding a lower rank, having functional impairment, and meeting criteria for two or more mental health problems. Being divorced or separated was positively associated with nonmedical help seeking for stress or emotional problems. Help seeking for alcohol problems was associated with current mental disorders.
Conclusions Medical help seeking for stress or emotional problems was uncommon and was related to meeting criteria for two or more mental health problems. Commissioned officers were reluctant to seek medical help for stress or emotional problems. Help seeking for alcohol problems increased if personnel were experiencing additional mental health problems.
