This years KITP Teacher's conference
was held on February 26th with a theme of "Physics and
Biology: Evolution of Life and Evolution of Science." This
conference brings over a hundred science teachers at the middle and
high school levels from across the country to Santa Barbara for a day
Our Back Parking Lot (or BPL) site behind the Santa Barbara Headquarters is our primary test assembly for the 0.4 and 1m classes of telescope (for recent progress see Rachel's blog entry, Site Development at Sedgwick and the Back Parking Lot ).
If you've ever used a telescope with a CCD camera you've probably encountered FITS files. FITS, or Flexible Image Transport System, is a file format used widely in astronomy to share images.
Last Wednesday, Feb 9, the team working on the new science camera system, Sinistro, got their first light image. This is a huge accomplishment, congratulations to the team!
I didn't mean to be a geek at the NewYears party. Really I didn't. I brought my laptop, and the host told me I could set it up at a table. I think that the intent was for me to post on FB or something like that. I had a set of data from the Faulkes that was burning a hole in my pocket, and so I told myself I would just look at one field.
One of our science team, Yiannis Tsapras has produced a graphic showing interesting information about all the exoplanets listed on The Extrasolar Planets Encyclopaedia.
NASA's Kepler mission has discovered its first Earth-size planet candidates and its first candidates in the habitable zone, a region where liquid water could exist on a planet's surface. LCOGT scientists are involved in the mission.
Once again Richard Miles (Director of the BAA, asteroids and comets section) has been following up interesting activity on the periodic comet, Comet 29P/ Schwassmann-Wachmann. His report is below.

From: The Fairfield (Iowa) Daily Ledger, September 24, 1946
IOWA CENTENNIAL EDITION, Section C, Page 6, Cols. 1-2
Second actual settler in Jefferson County, locating in Section 1 of what is now Cedar Township. He was the first Jefferson County taxpayer to pay his taxes.
Every new country blessed with thickly wooded sections, had plenty of what was then termed "wild honey." The wild bees gathered and stored the same kind of honey we take today from our artificial hives, but it was called "wild honey," because it was stored in places—generally hollow trees, selected by the wild bees.
When primitive sections were settled by pioneers, there was always a scientific "bee-tree locator." Pioneer Jefferson County was no exception to the rule. Its "bee-tree locator" was a master of the science. His name was JOHN HUFF. He was a native of the densely wooded county of Floyd in the lower Blue Ridge mountains of Virginia. He knew his bees and how to find their deposits of the pioneers' substitute for sugar.
Bee Tree Locator.
We speak of bee-tree locating as a science, and we mean all of that. One not versed in the science could not locate a bee-tree in the proverbial "thousand years." Then, too, he had to be a mathematician.
He would visit the fringes of a forest where there were many wild flowers. Of course, there would be hundreds of wild bees gathering honey from these flowers. When one secured its "load" it would fly away on a "bee-line" to its tree in the forest.
The bee-tree locator would pace the distance to another bunch of flowers and note the direction the bees flew when loaded. While he may never have studied trigonometry, he knew how to use the line he paced from one bunch of flowers to the other as the base.
No matter whether the triangle was an isosceles, equilateral, right angled or obtuse, he could very accurately estimate where the two "bee-lines" would converge. At that point he would find the bee-tree with very little trouble.
Tradition has it that JOHN HUFF had become so expert in his science that he could locate the tree long before he reached it.
He was born near what is now Huffville, Virginia, probably named after some of his relatives. The date of his birth was May 11, 1811. When JOHN was six years old, his parents moved to Floyd County, Kentucky, on the western slopes of the Cumberland Mountains. There he grew to young manhood.
After spending some time in Illinois, he and several other men set out in 1835 for the trading post of JOHN MCPHERSON on the Skunk river, "somewhere in Iowa." They were looking for land on which to make their homes. JOHN especially wanted land on which there would be a number of bee-trees. They found both in the section that was afterwards called "round prairie" in what is now Jefferson County. They all staked claims. On returning to MCPHERSON'S trading post, HUFF made three 40-gallon barrels of lindenwood and filled them with honey. These he transported in a dug-out canoe to Carthage, Illinois, where he sold their contents for 50 cents a gallon.
He returned to "round prairie" in January 1836. He visited his claim, but failed to make any improvements on it as required by law, spending practically all of his time locating other bee-trees. In March of that year, he returned to Carthage and married SARAH WOODARD. The young couple set out on horse back for their new home. When they reached "round prairie" they found that someone had "jumped," or taken possession of their claim. He accepted the result of his neglect by not making improvements on the land when he visited it a few months before and took another claim in what is now Cedar Township.
There he built a wigwam of tree branches and bark for a shelter till he could cut the logs and build a log house. This new home was ready for occupancy before "snow flew" the following winter. He and his wife missed by only a few weeks being the first actual settlers in Jefferson County. Later he sold the farm in Cedar Township and bought 240 acres in Buchanan Township, on which he resided until 1874, when he moved to Fairfield to spend his remaining days. He is buried in the Bethesda Cemetery.
The Fairfield (Iowa) Daily Legdger, Centennial Edition,
Monday, October 2, 1939, Section C, Page Seven
HUFF was born in Floyd County, Virginia, on May 11, 1811, the son of JOHN and ELIZABETH PRATT HUFF. His father had been born in Greenbrier County, Virginia, in 1770, and married a MISS THOMPSON, by whom he had four daughters …..second marriage was to MISS PRATT, a native of Bedford County, Virginia, and unto them were born seven children, four sons and three daughters…. JOHN and SARAH (WOODARD) HUFF were the parents of eight children: JAMES D., WILLIAM, NANCY, HENRY, REBECCA, JEFFERSON, SARAH, and LOUISA. The living descendants of JOHN HUFF are five in number, EDWIN HUFF of Fairfield, ELMER HUFF of Missouri, HENRY HUFF and PEARL HUFF of Illinois, and MRS. NELLIE G. (HUFF) LEWIS (granddaughter) of Atlanta, Georgia.

As independent professionals look to win over new business, MaryAnne Bobrow, CAE, CMP, CMM, CHE, President, Bobrow Associates, Inc. and 2013 Chair of the PCMA Independent Professionals Task Force, says that now is the time to capitalize on new opportunities.
"We're finally emerging from this long economic downturn, and I'm seeing a lot of organizations that are looking to make a move with the companies that have been managing their meetings," Bobrow says. "They're confident, and they're looking for someone who can offer a more strategic level of service. They want more than just logistics."
At Convening Leaders 2014 in Boston, Bobrow and her fellow Task Force members are hoping to provide fellow independents with the skills and knowledge they need to stand out in today's industry.
"We're looking to have high-level business acumen discussions," Bobrow says. "When independents are in the running for a piece of business against the Goliaths of the industry, we want to help them understand what they can do to distinguish themselves and their services."
She also wants to help them understand how to simplify their lives.
"We're hoping to educate independent professionals on new productivity tools that can increase efficiencies in order to help them manage their own businesses while they're managing a client's business at the same time."
Bobrow has always had an entrepreneurial spirit, but the story of the founding of Bobrow Associates, Inc. is rooted in much more than the world of attendees, exhibitors, members and marketing. In 2003, Bobrow was diagnosed with cancer.
"It was a scary time, and it really made me look much harder at how I wanted to spend my life, who I wanted to work with and what I wanted to accomplish," Bobrow says. "
Ten years later, Bobrow remains cancer-free, and she approaches her work and her life with an inspiring sense of calm and confidence.
"It's given me a new perspective," Bobrow says. "I no longer fret about the things I cannot control."
While her battle with the disease may have changed many elements of her life and her work, she says one piece will always remain the same.
"My Type A behavior is still very much a part of me," she says with a laugh.
That personality fuels Bobrow's commitment to the entire industry - - not just her own clients. From receiving MPI's RISE Award for Member of the Year in 2011 to her current work as Chair of the APEX Standards Committee to her volunteer work at PCMA, Bobrow is a strong voice for the power of face-to-face meetings.
"Our industry is doing tremendous things," Bobrow says. "I'm thankful to be part of the big impact that meetings have on the world."

Another View: Ensuring a free market for auto dealers is a state duty
The legislation before the House Commerce Committee, Senate Bill 126, seeks to ensure a functioning free market among auto and heavy equipment manufacturers. Unlike most retail businesses, these dealers have enormous capital costs and typically have just one supplier (i.e. you rarely see a Chevrolet dealer that also sells Nissans or a John Deere dealer that also sells Case New Holland tractors). This leads to an environment that is ripe for coercion, as dealers often have little recourse but to meet the demands of manufacturers or risk consequences that can put them out of business.
As an example, one dealer was told he was going to have to merge with a nearby dealer or buy them out. In another instance, an owner, planning to sell his dealership, was told that he could only sell to a contiguous dealer, which drastically limited the pool of potential buyers, and thus the amount he could make on the sale. Another dealer, after purchasing the franchise for a line of equipment, was told that he would have to drop another line of products in another dealership he owned. When he sued to protect his property rights, the franchise line he had purchased refused to warranty any of the existing inventory he owned.
These are just some of the coercive tactics that have been employed in this industry. Manufacturers understand that they have the upper hand, and they can use that leverage to demand concessions outside of their franchise agreements (contracts). Manufacturers know dealers are fearful of going to court to protect their rights because it often means suing their often sole supplier, who typically holds the key to the dealers' business in their hands.
Senate Bill 126 would put legal protections in place to protect the property rights of dealers.
Some opponents of the legislation have asserted that government involvement in a marketplace undermines a free market. While that can be true, it misses the equally important point that government is responsible for creating a free market. Thus, the role of government should be to protect a free market by safeguarding property rights and eliminating coercion, as is clearly needed in the examples cited previously.
Without this, coercion easily sets foot into the marketplace, resulting in prices and supply and demand becoming distorted. The property rights of both sides are likely to be abused, which leads to an environment where both merchant and customer are less likely to do business effectively, and where customers will be much more likely to pay higher prices for products.
It's important to remember that these free market problems that SB 126 seeks to resolve ultimately hurt consumers. Empowering local auto dealers by freeing them from some of the overly burdensome restraints and requirements that the manufacturers seek to impose upon them will give the auto dealers greater flexibility and freedom to work to meet the demands of their consumers.
Not having a market that's as competitive as possible means higher prices and fewer choices for the public. For these reasons, this bill makes a great deal of sense for both our citizens and local businesses.

Make sure your Wired or Wi-Fi connection is disabled, whichever one you are not using.
Disable whatever connection you are using. Unplug modem power, router power, wait a few minutes and plug both back in. Re-enable the connection.
Can also try ipconfig /release , ipconfig /renew , and ipconfig /flushdns in command prompt.

They dont give exp towards paragon so they offer zero rewards. Why even have them at all when they dont give you anything?
I believe they are fixing/have fixed this issue... Dont remember if I saw it in patch notes or PTR notes... If it isnt fixed it will be soon... Just a glitch they over looked I assume...
Pretty sure they said that you wouldn't be earning XP from quests after hitting 60.
Though I have thought the idea of adding quest XP post-60 would be a good thing.
At the end of the day if you think completing quests is pointless but still want to do full act clears, load up the final quest of whatever act and then run clear the act, killing your boss of choice at the end. That's what I do...
You miss out on the sub-bosses but... meh. Bosses never drop anything good anyway.
600-800 Gold right?
The quest rewards are pretty bad throughout the entire game, with an exception to the EXP you get at low, low levels. After a while that's worthless, too.
Needs better sidequests.
If you're giving gold, give 100 times the current amount.
If you're giving EXP in Inferno, make it worth a damn at Paragon 40, 50, 80, whatever.
Better idea would be to grant high-level gems, random rares, and maybe even some really nice recipe quests that are pretty difficult.
Considering all quests pretty much just give a bit of gold and some experience... no point at all really except merely progressing through the game,
From another ARPG that I'm waiting for:
-Give players meaningful quest choices and the ability to visually change the starting town as they help to rebuild and secure the future survival of humanity.
-Let you ally with NPC factions to earn rewards and unlock new quest lines. Be wary though, aiding one group can make another your enemy!
-We don't control where you go; you do! If you don't want to follow the main story, you aren't forced to. Non-linear progression allows you to unlock new areas by repairing bridges, defeating enemy blockades, etc, as soon as you have the resources and power to do it. Race ahead into higher-level areas and get pwned, we'll warn you but we're not going to stop you!
-Feature a more open-world design with randomized elements that will greatly enhance replay-ability. Each play-through will be unique with "set-piece" spawners that can turn a patch of wilderness into different types of enemy camps, a traveling merchant caravan, etc, each with their own unique art.
Can't wait considering the alpha is a few weeks away :)

We know that every little bit of XP helps, so coming soon in patch 1.0.8, level 60 players who complete quests will earn experience towards Paragon levels.
Laydapwn420 #1119
Amen :)
They dont give exp towards paragon so they offer zero rewards. Why even have them at all when they dont give you anything?We know that every little bit of XP helps, so coming soon in patch 1.0.8 level 60 players who complete quests will earn experience towards Paragon levels.
I don't really understand why the Diablo 3 development team is trying to make leveling paragon easier and easier every patch. It's like your goal is to remove the little end-game that is in the game and trying to make it so everyone that doesn't even spend time on the game can reach paragon 100. I mean when you are paragon 100 all these XP bonuses wont benefit you and a lot of people have reached that now and it will be even easier this upcoming patch. I just don't see point why you guys are making it easier?
Your post doesn't make any sense "We know that every little bit of XP helps", help what? Not giving you one single challenge in the game or what? Lets nerf "Waller" on champion packs aswell while we are on it so you can walk through them since we realised that it was to hard for people to walk around them. Easy doesn't mean fun.
Edited by Zyfoh#2357 on 4/19/2013 5:45 PM PDT
<easy doesn't mean fun> ^angry birds says otherwise. simple but addictive for millions.
Yay... paragon...
Still doesn't solve the issue that quests have uninteresting rewards.
Pocket change gold and a little experience doesn't enthrall me in the slightest.
I suppose though that you don't want quest rewards to be good in the end anyways considering the nearly same stance (yes nv5) for boss drops. If bosses or quests give good rewards then people will just farm those things which is obviously a bad thing in Blizzard's eyes.
Quests in D3... don't see any solution in making their rewards better unless their is a similar system to Nephalem Valor in which playing through the quests will give 1 Quest Valor (lol) which will make the rewards better (like having drops/crafting materials/jewels/chance for plans or legendary items).
Just an idea....
I wouldn't say they offer 0 rewards. A lot of the quests spawn an elite and/or add an NV stack now so they're at least useful for that. Wouldn't hurt to improve on that more though.
Toastmasterd #1907
"soon" ™
Yeah, but how much xp is that anyway? is it modified by cp bonuses? Is it really worth putting in if it's so tiny?
Like others have said, the main issue is that quest rewards aren't worth getting, and, MOST IMPORTANTLY, creatures that spawn from quests DO NOT GIVE XP.
Dellusions #1665
Quest rewards in inferno should be increased multiple times, and they should also scale with monster power.
Currently quests give 800-2000 gold. Piles of gold in MP5 with no additional gold find or paragon levels easily break that point, and happen hundreds of times in a few minutes.
Base MP0 inferno quests should give 10K gold and 100K XP, and should go up to 50K gold and 500K XP at MP10. Doing this will bring meaning back to doing quests, and I also believe you should get a bonus 25% to these amounts if you are helping someone do that quest for the first time on that character.
Do this, and people might actually pay attention, though no quest is quick enough to make that more reliable than farming whites/elites.
I get 800 gold every time I kill Azmodan.. .not sure what more people could ask for.
Yay now gold farmers can get paragon levels from running Haedrig all day too!
Yippie for them!

Featured Indie Games
Developer Spotlight
AbstrAKT Games has been a fixture on the indie gaming scene since its inception in 2012. The studio has delivered a steady stream of impressive games and won major prizes in the Indie Speed Run with two of them. They may be best known for the squishy strategy game Protein Pirates, which made a splash at the Indie Games Festival, but you have to experience several of their works to get a sense of the breadth of their talent. I believe there are only a few defining characteristics shared by AbstrAKT's games: they look and play completely unlike one another, they are hard to pigeonhole into genres, and they feature visually stunning artwork.Read the Interview »

Beatrix Potter
Autograph letter signed, Sidmouth, to Noel Moore
April 17, 1898
Gift of Colonel David McC. McKell, 1959
Item description:
One of Potter's last publications, The Tale of Little Pig Robinson (1930), contains story ideas that first appeared in her picture letters of the 1890s. This picture letter is noteworthy for its fine illustrations and the curious account of the dog Stumpy, pensioned off for life by his grateful owner. Stumpy and his trust fund remained in the back of the mind of the author, who transcribed some details of the letter almost word-for-word in the published version.
but so proud! I meet him out shopping in the morning, he looks at me sideways but he never speaks!

ppl not sharing
i'm using 56k modem and trying to download sum 600 mb file i leave my com on for days now but all i do is uploading, my download speed id 0 - 1 kb and upload speed 2 - 3
when i check on on the ppl downloading from me they have like 70%- 90% completed and they are not uploading to me (they download from me though) why is that???

You're probably getting snubbed because your upload rate is too slow.
(Gettng snubbed means they will not upload and download to you as much).
Try setting your max upload slots to no more than 1 or 2.
And reading Grand's answer it's obvious that he has probably never
even used BT. You can't close other peoples connections in BT.

Since you are on a 56k your upload will take away from your download because it isn't a broadband connection (read broadband doesn't always mean faster). Your total pot here has a max of 8k/s. Your 2-3 k up + your 1-2 k down is 3-5 k which leaves 3-5k left for all other communications which will take up 1-2k by themselves, which leaves 2-3k left for all non-bittorrent activity. Granted the 8k mark is a generous number for a good day and good connection, it is most likely closer to 6.5k. bittorrent is a bad idea on a 56k modem, you really should look into one of the other options.
IRC is a good option, if you can find patient people, and configure your DCC settings right.
USENET is a good option if your USENET (newsgroups) server isn't run by idiots. A good server can make all the difference here, you can get a good 15k/s stream off a USENET server under the right conditions (which should let you clear the file in about 11 hours or so, but realistically will be closer to 15).
Kazaa, eMule, and WinMX are decent sources, but I would stay away from them because of the high likelyness of a fake file (which sucks big time on a 56k modem).

I share allways, but we, in good old f**king Germany, have ADSL, with 768 kBit/s download and 128 kBit/s upload, so when I use BT with about 30 downloads, u can guess how high my upload is.
So maybe they have limited ressources like me.

I met with a large national paper manufacturer today. They have yet to start any mobile application projects internally. I wonder if they have ever read about the impact of digital transformation on Kodak film sales? I don't revel in writing about this, I cringe. The challenge is not IT, it is in the business that chooses not to commit budget to preparing for digital transformation. That sounds to me like waving the white flag in the face of change.
When I talk to companies about mobile strategies, I am not really talking about mobile strategies. I am talking about digital transformation and how mobile applications support this transformation. If you buy into the fact that entire industries and marketplaces are being digitally transformed (think film, newspapers, media, retail, banking, travel, education, healthcare etc.), then you recognize that mobile applications are about real-time prospect, customer and employee engagement, commerce, interaction and collaboration on any device, any place and at any time! The mobile app is the interface between the outside world and the company. The mobile app will provide very little value if the internal IT systems are not capable of supporting the demands of evolving marketplaces.
Let me emphasize the concept of "real-time." Mobile devices and mobile applications feed our desire for instant results accompanied by instant satisfaction. This desire generates intense pressures for companies to upgrade and transform themselves, their business processes and IT systems to be able to respond in real-time.
In addition to our desire for real-time information capabilities, we must be able to creatively innovate our way into the new landscape where the competition is around "information logistics" systems. Where our success is dependent upon our ability to collect data (from mobile devices, websites, social media, apps, sensors and other database) faster than our competition, and then integrate, analyze, report and put it to use in new business processes and services faster than our competitors. It is the ability to look at all of these capabilities and to envision new business models, products and services never before possible without real-time capabilities that will determine the market winners.
It is our "information logistics" systems that enable us to digitally transform and be competitive. It enables us to market to customers with precision. It enables us to provide better SLAs (service level agreements) because of better visibility into remote operations and delivery capabilities. It enables us to manage our cash better because we can manufacturer in a "just-in-time" paradigm based upon real-time visibility into demand and orders.
Yes enterprise mobility is a crucial element in all of this. It supports the "information logistics" system required to remain competitive in a world undergoing digital transformation, but let's not become mesmerized by enterprise mobility. It is not the end goal, it is simply an enabler on the journey through digital transformation.

So far so good. The FG ended up being down around 1.005 which seems low for beers from what I've seen on here. Typical for my ciders though so I'm not too worried.
I racked the beer into the secondary today after a week sitting in primary. The color seems nice but it's definitely not clear. After only a few hours in secondary it's got quite a bit of sediment sitting on the bottom so that's a good thing. I had added some Irish moss during the boil but no other clearing agents. Hopefully that's all I need.
Is one week too short a time for the beer to clear? I'm planning on leaving it in the secondary for two weeks so I guess I'll see what happens!
You'll be fine. Some of my beers don't clear till they're bottled, but they always clear. Even the ones that come out of the kettle looking like a swamp-water milkshake.
You were right! Even in a full day a bunch of sediment dropped out. So much that I decided to bottle just now. Taste is just ok - certainly drinkable but not what I'd like - I want more malty/caramel/bready taste. It was also hoppier than I was expecting but maybe that will mellow in the bottle.
I think I might try steeping some toasted millet or quinoa before the boil and see what that adds to it for next time. Definitely not up for malting or using enzymes yet.
Well, don't judge a beer till it's been in the bottle for a few weeks. Young, or "green", beer tastes quite different than mature beer, and some beers improve dramatically with age. Not all, mind you; some of my IPAs were definitely at peak flavor shortly after reaching full carbonation, but sometimes even lighter beers need time for flavors to blend and mellow.

Animal Jokes
The Dumb Bunny just started his first job, as a delivery boy and general go-fer at a furniture warehouse. His first task was to go out for coffee.
He walked into a nearby coffee shop carrying a large thermos. When the counterman finally noticed him, he held up the thermos.
"Is this big enough to hold six cups of coffee?" he said. The counterman looked at the thermos, hesitated for a few seconds, then finally said, "Yeah. It looks like about six cups to me."
"Good," he said. "Give me two regular, two black, and two decaf."

School District 45 would lose $4.2 M annually with SB16
The State Legislature is reviewing Senate Bill 16, which would radically redistribute State funding for education. The bill, as written, would cut the annual revenue we receive from the State by a staggering $4.2 million per year, a 74% reduction.
