Next on the tee
The Colorado State men's golf team travels to El Macero, Calif., to compete in the El Macero Classic, Friday-Sunday at the El Macero Country Club west of Sacramento near Davis, Calif.
The setting
The tournament will be held at the El Macero Country Club in El Macero, Calif. The course will feature a par-72 layout that stretches 6,912 yards.
Tournament format
Following practice rounds on Thursday, the 54-hole tournament will be played over three days, Friday-Sunday, with 18 holes of competition slated for each day. Golfers will tee off in groups off of Holes 1 and 10, beginning at 8:20 a.m. MT/7:20 a.m. PT on Friday. Saturday's second round will begin with tee times starting at 11:30 a.m. MT/10:30 a.m. PT. Sunday's final round begins with 8 a.m. MT/7 a.m. PT tee times.
The field
The tournament field for the El Macero Classic features 12 teams, including two teams ranked in the top 100 of the latest Golfweek/Sagarin rankings (April 14), and three members of the Mountain West. CSU, ranked No. 103, will match up against co-hosts UC Davis (No. 65) and Nevada (No. 99), as well as Boise State (177), Cal Poly (138), Cal State Fullerton (67), Idaho (109), Sacramento State (127), Grand Canyon (191), Marquette (115), Seattle (203) and Utah Valley State (144).
Live scoring
Live scoring for the El Macero Classic is available at www.GolfStatResults.com. Recaps will also be available following each day of competition at www.CSURams.com.
Change of venue
Though the Rams are slated to compete this week in the El Macero Classic at the El Macero Country Club, the event was originally called the Winchester Classic and was scheduled to be played at nearby Winchester Country Club. The venue changes was prompted by a problem with the playing conditions on the course at Winchester Country Club.
The Rams' lineup
Colorado State will tee off at El Macero Classic with the Rams' seventh different lineup combination of the season. The top of the Rams' lineup remains familiar, with junior Cameron Harrell starting his ninth-consecutive tournament in the No. 1 position. Senior Parker Edens, is the Rams' No. 2 for the sixth-consecutive tourney. He and Harrell, along with sophomore Dominic Kieffer are the only Rams to play in all 26 rounds for the Rams entering play this weekend in El Macero. Kieffer returns to the No. 3 position in the Rams' lineup for the fifth time this season. He has also started two tourneys at No. 2 and three tournaments at No. 4. A pair of true freshman round out top 5 for CSU with Pueblo, Colo., product Jimmy Makloski and Phoenix, Ariz., native Alec Bone, slotted in at No. 4 and No. 5, respectively. Makloski makes his seventh start of the season, with the previous six all coming in the fifth spot in the rotation. Bone starts his second consecutive tournament in the lineup, after his debut in the Rams' previous outing at The Goodwin. Bone had previously competed as an individual in three tournaments this season before breaking into the lineup. The El Macero Classic will mark nine consecutive tournaments in which a true freshman has competed in the Rams' lineup, and the first of the season with two first-year players in line to score for the Rams.
Last time out - The Goodwin
The Colorado State men's golf team closed play at The Goodwin in a tie for 13th in the 18-team field at Stanford Golf Course in Stanford, Calif., March 28-30. The Rams opened the tournament in impressive fashion shooting a team score of 286 (+6) to close Round 1 in a tie for ninth. CSU slid into 10th with an 11-over 291 in Round 2, and closed Round 3 in 12th place with a 289 (+9). They finished 51 strokes off the pace of host Stanford, which Ran away with the team title by 20 strokes. The Rams were led by junior Patrick Harrell and sophomore Dominic Kieffer, who finished tied for 41st with a three-round score of 216 (+6). Senior Parker Edens tied for 55th with a total of 219 (+9), two strokes ahead of true freshman Alec Bone, who tied for 65th and closed with a career-best round of 70. The tournament marked the first of Bone's career in the Rams' lineup after competing as an individual in three previous tourneys this season. Junior Cameron Harrell closed play tied for 71st after shooting rounds of 75-75-72 to finished with a three-round total of 222 (+12).

I'm a newbie on XBMC and HTPC.....
I will be start collecting movie and rip them to my HTPC.
Should i start buying Reg DVD or Blu-ray?
i understand some movie should get blu-ray.... for example "The dark knight rise"
But for normal non action movie, should i just get reg DVD? It will be alot cheaper.
what is the normal MP4 size for Blu-ray after ripped to hard drive?
Just wondering.... so I know what kinda HDD to buy in the future.
thanks for the info.
I'm trying out with diff ripping software. I really like MP4 cus I can just copy and paste the file to my Nexus 7 and watch it on the go.
what is the advantage of MKV vs MP4?
I was trying out dvdfab BR ripper last night, and ripped "The dark knights rise" It is about 9GB. just the movie itself
what is " VC1 video, DTS-MA audio"???
After the rip, only file I have is the dark knight rise .MP4
thanks for the great info,
so can you walk me thru what u did with TDKR??? Did u end up with a 32GB un-touch afterward?
I would like to keep a BR disk to about 10-15GB if possible, what would be the best way to do that with good quality?
if I use makemkv, does it end up with 1 mkv file?
do I still need to use handbrake afterward???
what about reg DVD? do u do the same too???
how big is the ur file with reg DVD?
So i'm guessing I need to use makemkv.... from BR disk to mkv file, then use handbrake to convert to MP4 file. is that correct?
Might have to do some research and try it out
I will try makemkv and handbrake this weekend, I'm guessing the latest XBMC will support MKV without any add on right?
Also just wondering... how is ur HTPC setup? do u have it setup with a NSA?
If I want to make backup copy of DVD or BR, should I use the software like dvdfab, or should I use makemkv/ handbrake and somehow convert back to DVD / BR?
is it easy to convert mkv to mp4?? I would like to have some file in mp4 so I can play it in my Nexus 7
I just check out the Plex website, it look very interesting. If I use that, I will not have to convert my mkv to mp4 file for my Nexus 7.
Here is a simple plan on what I would like to do for the future..... and would like to see what suggestion on getting thing setup the correct way "easy way"
1. I would like to rip all my DVD and BR to my HDD and setup as HTPC
I guess I can do that with makemkv and handbrake for that.
2. Make copy for some of the DVD and BR that I already own.
Not sure what is the best way to do that, currently I'm trying out
Aiseesoft Blu-ray copy
Any suggestion???
I was thinking about get them in mkv file, and burn it later. But it looks like it will me more diff than just straight up copying.
Do you know the picture quality on those two copying software?? Or other suggestion??
3. Watch some movie on a tablet or laptop. I guess I could use Plex
Do you have the plexpass??
Does it work well with ur phone on wireless connection away from home??
Do u need to to have the plexpass to try out the app on phone/tablet ?
Ok, right now i'm using DVDfab for my reg DVD copying. (Disk to Disk)
It compress enough to fit in one DVD+R on DVD5 mode I think.
Does the quality change due to the compression?
if not, my copied dvd should be as good as the original right?
I do not have a software for copying BR yet, and still researching, and testing for the best one.
You said you used to use DVDshrink? is that on BR or reg DVD? Any good suggestion on BR Copier?
So you can get the plexapp mobile without getting the plexpass? and it can still stream movie on the mobile via wifi or 4g from my own library?

If you would like to join the Friday morning volunteers, contact Flo Hannah email@example.com.
Grow Out Native Plants for Houston Audubon by Flo Hannah, Conservation Specialist
The biggest roadblock to coastal prairie restoration is the lack of available native plant material specific to the Upper Texas Coast. We collect native seed all summer and fall and are asking individuals to propagate the seed at home for restoration projects.I hope you will join in this fun, important wildlife enhancement project. Full instructions on native plant germination are available at the Coastal Prairie Partnership website. Jaime Gonzalez has prepared a Coastal Prairie Plant Growers' Handbook, available on that site, which explains everything about seed collecting and propagating. Once your plants germinate, and are hardy enough to bump-up to 4" or 1-gallon containers, you can join us at a potting-up work day, or drop off the seedlings and we will do the rest. The plants will be used in one of our many restoration projects. We encourage you to retain some of the native plant material for your own backyard, helping to create a wildlife corridor throughout the Houston-Galveston region. If you would like to help grow out native plants, collect native seeds, or participate in Houston Audubon planting events, please contact me at email@example.com.

Thanks Marco - appreciate time taken for reply.
Firstly I think its a normal 12 stator motor. I haven't counted the number of poles. 650kv running 4s Fast acceleration changes are when it fails consistently. " out of every 3 times. Starting speed is a reasonably fast "tickover" Slow - moderate accelerations are fine. When running at consistent speed always OK. Also to note - it does seem worse when warmed up as Marco noted. Have four motors and escs - they all do it - some worse than others. One motor does have trouble starting sometimes - others the odd hiccup for a second I am running some older simonK on my Tri - with 880kv t-motor and no issues. Might try swapping over. bit of a nuisance as escs are hard wired and buried in the frame so not a quick change Thought I'd do a nice job for once...! Quote:

Are you sure that it is during the acceleration phase and not the deceleration phase that it looses sync. That would best be confirmed with quite separate acc and dec tests. My own tests reveal that whilst a motor might be more sensitive to timing on rapid acceleration at low speed. I know most people seem to choose motor timing to get max power at reasonable current, but have you tried to vary timing advance to see if it affects rapid performance at the low end. Again, these tests are most valid if you use a consistent acceleration scenario... I generated a test ramp on an Arduino nano. Also helpful if you can capture the response with a logger for instance.

3 Tips For Maintaining Senior Health and Fitness
Many families are faced with difficult challenges as a loved one begins to age.
Luckily, there are solutions for families wishing to help family members stay healthy, vibrant and feeling good. Here are three tips for maintaining senior health and fitness.
Regular Exercise For Mind and Body
Leading an active lifestyle into the senior years is more important than ever for increasing energy, and controlling chronic pain. In fact, regular cardiovascular exercise can do wonders for an aging heart, can improve sleep and boost confidence.
Eating for Optimal Health
Choose foods with proven health benefits to maximize well-being and prolong vitality. Foods rich in vitamin D and calcium decrease the risk of age related osteoporosis, while foods high in proteins boost mental clarity and awareness.
In Home Nursing Services For Independence
For many seniors, living independently can be challenging. Expert, professional caregivers provide peace of mind and confidence for families by creating a safe, comfortable environment at home for seniors to thrive.

When hiring a home nursing care provider there are several factors you will need to consider.
What is the level of care your loved one requires?
Home nursing care can range from a Home Health Aide who comes in and helps handle daily tasks, to a Registered Nurse (RN) who can provide medical attention, administer medications and communicate with the patient's doctors.
Will you work with an agency, or hire help on your own?
You can choose a licensed home nursing care agency that is certified, runs background checks, holds liability insurance, and follows medical care policies and procedures. Or you can place an ad in your local newspaper.
Hiring the right caregiver
If you are working with an agency, they can send you several qualified candidates that fit the requirements of the kind of help you need.
Firstat Nursing Services has been providing a higher standard of home nursing, home health and home care services for elderly, disabled and injured people in the greater San Diego area since 1997.

Off the cuff again as I discuss and lament the lost of varience in film and why word of mouth must be reinstated.
Once again, some directors worthy of mention for those that don't know them.
Cecille B Demille

There are others, an army of others across all nations of course. however the list can't go on forever now can it? Request more names if you'd like to know who the directors of legend are.
I encourage those in need of good storytelling to look towards the past, and explore all films - Chinese, Japanese,Korean, American, British, German, Russian, Italian, African and all genres; That is the only way you will see past the wool being pulled over your eyes by the studios.
Dark knight the godfather? Chris Nolan the next Spielberg? Every film that comes out, the greatest ever?
Watch your tongues little ones before you lose it.
I do not comment on who i believe the greatest of all time (the G.O.A.T) is because I have not seen every film ever made.
I guarantee you haven't either and until you do, and know for a fact that there is not a film you have not seen, you cannot say who is the greatest ever or what a good film is because your view is severely limited.
I can however comment on the greats, I can rattle off names, because there is a lot of them and I've committed myself to discovering their works from being buried under the ashes of time.

US 5067924 A Abstract The disclosure describes an apparatus and method for facilitating weight loss. In particular, a doll that will simulate weight loss and weight gain according to simultaneous weight loss and weight gain of the doll's owner is disclosed. Layers of "skin" made of stretchable synthetic material, such as vinyl, are added or removed from the doll each time the doll's owner gains or loses one weight increment, respectively. Each layer represents a particular predetermined weight increment, which may be determined by the doll's owner. The doll may be male or female, preferably includes jointed body parts, and may be dressed, such as in a running suit which fits over the layers of skin.
Claims(6) 1. A method for encouraging weight loss in an individual comprising the steps of:
providing a doll's body of the same gender as said individual; providing said doll with a plurality of layers of simulated skin, each representing a predetermined weight increment, said simulated skins being fittable one over the other for simulating weight gain and loss as said simulated skins are added and removed, respectively; increasing said doll's torso size as said individual gains an increment of weight by adding a predetermined number of said simulated skins onto said torso one over the other, said added skins corresponding to said weight gain; and decreasing said doll's torso size as said individual loses an increment of weight by removing a predetermined number of said simulated skins from said torso, said removed simulated skins corresponding to said weight loss. 2. The method according to claim 1, wherein said step of providing said doll's body comprises providing a swimsuit on the torso of said doll to symbolize the individual's more attractive appearance after weight loss.
3. The method according to claim 1, further comprising the step of:
providing clothing means for dressing the doll, said clothing means being adapted to be worn over the outermost simulated skin layer, so that the doll will appear heavy when one or more simulated skins are worn underneath said clothing means. 4. The method according to claim 3, wherein said step of providing a plurality of simulated skins further comprises providing each skin layer with an indicia thereon indicating the weight increment represented thereby.
5. The method according to claim 1, wherein said step of providing a plurality of simulated skins further comprises providing each simulated skin layer with an indicia thereon indicating the weight increment represented thereby.
6. A doll for simulating an individual's weight loss or weight gain comprising:
a doll's body; a plurality of layers f simulated skin, each representing a predetermined weight increment, said simulated skin layers being fittable one over the other for simulating weight gain and loss as simulated skins are added and removed, respectively; and wherein each simulated skin layer has an indicia thereon indicating the weight increment represented thereby. Description 1. Field of the Invention The invention pertains to dolls which simulate physical changes in the human body and particularly Weight loss or weight gain. 2. Prior Art A variety of changeable dolls are known in the prior art. Typically, such dolls are structurally complex, requiring, for example, a shell which expands by liquid means or a power supply for driving a mechanical system for changing the doll's size or shape. U.S. Pat. No. 2,154,121 discloses a mechanical toy in the form of a human figure or doll which simulates feeding by means of a motor, crank and link connections which effect expansion or contraction of the doll's abdomen. U.S. Pat. No. 3,812,613 disclosed a doll which simulates various stages of pregnancy. The torso of the doll is made of a substantially rigid material with an interruption in the abdomen portion covered by a yieldable skin portion. The interior of the abdomen has a screw-driven plunger, movable by a driving tool, into engagement with the yieldable skin portion to thus distend the abdomen thereby simulating pregnancy. Similarly, U.S. Pat. No. 3,992,807 is a growth-simulating figure toy which simulates the growth of a female from a pre-teenager to a teenager by means of expandable breasts actuated by crank shaft and lever means, and upper and lower torso members, with the upper torso member being moveable from a first position to a trimmer-looking second position. U.S. Pat. No. 4,236,347 discloses a flexible doll having a normal form defined by a molded elastic skin for receiving a viscous liquid filler and a separate molded, rotatable head. Addition of the viscous filler stretches and deforms the doll's body parts, with the doll returning to its normal form upon removal of the filler. U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,259,807 and 4,828,528 disclose dolls which simulate child-growth. U.S. Pat. No. 4,259,807 shows a stuffed doll having extendable arms and leg means. U.S. Pat. No. 4,828,528 discloses a doll provided with a stretchable inner liner having an expandable core within and a skin layer in intimate contact with the inner liner. The inner lining has two or more growth phase means such as stitchings which, when removed, cause the doll to grow a predetermined extent. The doll, however, cannot be returned to its original form. U.S. Pat. No. 4,917,607 describes an apparatus and method for facilitating communication of human emotions for attitudinal healing or play. A rag-type doll having built-in cavities for receiving fabric forms representing various human feelings is used. The cavities may be secured by suitable closure means such as zippers, snaps, buttons, velcro, etc. It is accordingly an object of the present invention to provide a changeable doll for simulating weight loss and weight gain which incorporates a minimum number of parts for facilitating assembly and reducing manufacturing costs. It is a further object of the present invention to provide a changeable doll for simulating weight loss and weight gain which does not require a power supply means for driving mechanical or electrical systems, liquid fillers, or inflatable means. It is a still further object of the present invention to provide a changeable doll which is easy for the owner to use and transport when he or she is at home, at work or traveling, such that the owner is easily accompanied by a "friend," a companion in the weight loss process. The present invention is a changeable doll for simulating weight loss and weight gain of the doll's owner. Broadly speaking, the invention comprises a doll's body and means for increasing or decreasing at least the torso size of the doll's body in predetermined increments, whereby to simulate weight gain or weight loss, respectively. A method for encouraging weight loss in an individual is also disclosed and, in the broad sense, comprises providing a doll's body of the same gender as the individual; providing the doll with means for increasing or decreasing at least the torso size of the doll's body in predetermined increments, whereby to simulate weight gain or weight loss, respectively; increasing the doll's torso size as the individual gains an increment of weight; and decreasing the doll's torso size as the individual loses an increment of weight. In a preferred embodiment, the doll is three-dimensional, formed of molded flesh-colored plastic or an equivalent substantially rigid material, and stands about one foot high. The doll is moveable for sitting, bending or twisting by means of jointed body parts such as at the head, neck, shoulders, elbows, hips, knees and ankles. The doll's eyes may open and close. To facilitate identification with the doll's owner, the doll may be male or female, have black, blonde, brunette hair, etc. The basic doll represents the owner's ideal size after weight loss. Swimwear suitable for the doll's gender may be painted on the doll's body. Included with the preferred doll are a plurality of layers of skins, preferably at least five, each of which is comparable to a skin-diver's suit and made of a stretchable, light-weight, flesh-colored material, such as vinyl. The skins, being stretchable, are easy for the owner to put on and take off the doll. For this purpose, an opening is provided in the front or back of each skin so that the doll may be inserted, legs first, whereupon the legs and arms of the skin may be pulled over the doll's arms and legs, with the doll's head, neck, hands and feet left exposed. Once the skin is in place on the doll, the opening in the skin is closed, as by Velcro� tabs or other suitable closure means. The next skin layer can then be added in a similar fashion, and so on. Clothing, such as a jogging suit, is also provided with the doll. The jogging suit is sufficiently flexible to fit over all the skin layers when in place on the doll, such that changes in the "weight" of the doll resulting from the addition or removal of skins are clearly visible when the jogging suit is worn. In accordance with the invention, each skin represents an increment of weight, the value of each increment being determined by the owner. For example, if the owner wishes to lose 25 pounds, each layer of skin may be designated as five pounds. Each layer of skin preferably has a designated location where the owner can mark, as by stick-on tabs or marker pencil, the desired incremental weight for that layer. As will now be apparent, the owner will add or remove layers of skin to the doll as he/she gains or loses weight. Of course, each time a layer is added, the doll gets bigger, thereby simulating weight gain, while each time a layer is removed, the doll shrinks in size. In this way, the owner is provided with a constant visual reminder of his/her own weight condition which, it is believed, provides a positive psychological inducement to succeed at weight loss. As presently contemplated, each doll will be sold and packaged separately. For example, each doll may be packaged on cardboard and be covered with blow-molded plastic for on-the-shelf viewing. An introduction and instruction booklet for the doll and skins, aerobic exercise and health tips, standardized height and weight chart, and an order form for purchase of additional skins may be included with each package. The dolls can be sold over-the-counter in department or specialty stores, or through catalogs. Additionally or alternatively, the dolls may be distributed through weight-loss programs. Further features and advantages of the changeable doll in accordance with the present invention will be more fully apparent from the following detailed description and annexed drawings of a presently preferred embodiment thereof. FIG. 1 is a front elevational view of a female doll dressed in a jogging suit with four skins therebeneath; FIG. 2 is a fragmentary sectional view taken substantially along line 2--2 of FIG. 1; FIG. 3 is a rear elevational view of one of the removable skins provided with the doll; and FIG. 4 is a front elevational view of the doll with all skins removed. Referring now to the drawings, a preferred doll in accordance with the present invention is generally designated at 10. As shown in FIG. 1, the doll 10 is dressed in a jogging suit 11 made, for example, from parachute material, though other materials may also be employed. As shown in FIG. 1, the jogging suit 11 has a front closure, which may be a hook and loop type fastener, such as Velcro�, for facilitating dressing and undressing the jogging suit 11 from the doll 10. In FIG. 1, the doll appears heavy, as four layers of skins 12a-12d (see FIG. 2) are disposed on the doll underneath the jogging suit 11. As shown in FIG. 1, the doll's hair 13, which may be black, blonde, brunette, etc., is natural in appearance and rooted in the head of the doll. Referring to FIG. 3, an individual layer of "skin" 12, representing a weight increment to be added or removed from the doll 10, is shown. Each skin is made of a stretchable, lightweight, flesh-colored synthetic material, such as vinyl. An opening 14 is provided in the back of each skin layer 12, such that the doll may be inserted therein, whereupon the legs 18 and arms 17 of the skin can be pulled over the doll's legs 20 and arms 19 (see FIG. 4), respectively. As best shown in FIG. 1, when the skins 12 are on the doll 10, the doll's head, neck, hands and feet remain exposed. Once a skin 12 is in place on the doll 10, the opening 14 is closed by a closure means, such as the pairs of hook and loop fasteners 15, which may comprise Velcro�. The next layer can then be added in a similar fashion and so on. Each layer 12 preferably has a designated area 16 for marking the "weight" of that layer. For example, each layer of skin 12 may be preprinted with a designated weight, such as "5 pounds" or "10 pounds". Alternatively, means, such as stick on patches or blank areas suitable for marking as with a marker pencil, may be provided with the doll 10 such that the owner can assign any desired weight to each skin 12. In either event, it will be appreciated that the owner will add or remove layers of skin 12 from the doll 10 simultaneously with his/her weight gain or weight loss, respectively, with the "weight" of the skins 12 added or removed corresponding to the weight added or lost by the owner. The doll 10 is intended to encourage weight loss by having the owner identify with it physically. Thus, the doll 10 represents the owner's ideal weight when all the layers of skins 12 are removed. As shown in FIG. 4, a swimsuit 21 suitable for the doll's gender, in this case female, is painted on the molded plastic torso of the doll 10. This suggests to the owner that, after losing a desired amount of weight, he or she will appear as proportionally correct and attractive as the doll. Assuming, for example, that the owner is 20 pounds overweight, four 5 pound skins or two 10 pound skins would be added to the doll 10, after which the suit 11 is applied. The effect, of course, is that the doll 10 appears overweight--a constant psychological reminder to the owner to lose weight. Then, as weight is lost or gained, additional layers are removed or added, respectively, with the ultimate goal that all layers are removed when the owner reaches his or her ideal weight. As best shown in FIG. 4, to make the doll appear realistic and to provide the owner with flexibility in placing the doll, the doll 10 may preferably have a variety of moveable and jointed parts. Specifically, the head 22, which houses a pair of moveable eyes, may be jointed for movement at the neck 24. The shoulders 25, elbows 26, hips 27, knees 28 and ankles 29 also may be jointed for movement so that the doll 10 can twist, bend and sit. By means of its jointed parts, the doll could sit next to its owner at his or her desk, or on a kitchen counter or shelf. Also, because it is easily transportable, the doll 10 can accompany the owner at home, to work or when traveling. While I have herein shown and described a preferred embodiment of a doll for simulating simultaneous weight loss or weight gain in accordance with the present invention, and have suggested certain changes and modifications thereto, it will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art that still further changes and modifications may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Accordingly, the above description should be construed as illustrative, and not in a limiting sense, the scope of the invention being defined by the following claims. Patent Citations

That is frackin' awesome.
Well, you could just drown the little bastids before they mature.
Yeesh...drowning. I remember that story.
Ah, backlash. It's a beautiful thing.
Wow Physeter, I'd never heard of her. (I've only been in the USA around three years). I find that whole belief system so incredible. How awful.
I just found out about it because of that first link, one of my regular blogs since I've started reading atheist blogs. From what I can tell that muderer was seriously delusional--thinking she heard voices behind the walls, cartoon characters were communicating with her kids, etc. It's quite possible she would have come up with some other reason she "had to" kill her kids. But how creepy is that, that well-accepted beliefs of Christianity so easily led a delusional mind to those conclusions?
@arch " it gives me hope that we shall overcome. "
I have been feeling that way lately as well.

- Conference date: 8−10 Jun 1989
- Location: Newark, Delaware (USA)
We show how the spectral analysis code ROBFIT has been used in analyzing gamma‐rays output from Supernova 1987A. The observations were performed using the GRAD detector which was on‐board a balloon launched from McMurdo Station, Antarctica on January 8 1986. A spectral analysis code, ROBFIT, capable of distinguishing peak at the noise level used to analyze the data. ROBFIT is a general purpose spectral analysis package which as been developed at the University of Florida.
ROBFIT represents gamma‐ray peak shapes and background continuum as combinations of spline functions. The background is fitted over the entire spectrum using a robust fitting technique. This removes the need to independently fit small regions of a spectrum which can lead to mis‐representation of the background under certain conditions. The code has the ability to model any peak shape as a combination of spline functions. Both background and peaks are adjusted simultaneously until χ2 is minimized. Then the background can be modified and new peaks searched for a new minimum found. This iterative procedure is carried out until a user supplied limit is reached. ROBFIT then outputs peak positions, widths strengths and their associated errors.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Capitals And Jets Still Battling For Playoff Spot
by Paul on 04/19/13 at 10:03 AM ET
Comments (0)
from Katie Strang of ESPN,
The third-place Capitals and ninth-place Jets are separated by a mere two points heading into the penultimate weekend of the season, each team with four games left on its schedule.
Washington, whose eight-game winning streak was snapped by the Ottawa Senators on Thursday night, remains in the division lead with 50 points, but the Jets trail by two after edging the Carolina Hurricanes in overtime Thursday 4-3.
Though the Jets are tied with the New York Rangers at 48 points, the eighth-place Rangers have a game in hand.
The two competing storylines are both compelling: one a team that has essentially risen from the dead after a dreadful start to the season, much in part to Alex Ovechkin's dynamic play; another club desperate to earn its first playoff berth since 2007.
Who has the advantage from here?
Three of the Caps' final four games are against playoff teams -- Montreal, Ottawa and Boston. The other game?
That's right, an all-important four-point match against the Jets at home Tuesday.

Granger scores 24; Pacers rally in last minute to knock off Pistons
INDIANAPOLIS -- Danny Granger loves playing the spoiler, especially against the Detroit Pistons.
Granger had 24 points and the Indiana Pacers stalled Detroit's bid for a higher playoff seed with a 106-102 victory Saturday night.
"I think it shows our pride, the pride we take in playing the game. Even though we're out of the playoffs, we're playing each game as if we're in," Granger said. "You love to be the spoiler."
Fast Facts
• Jarrett Jack made a driving layup with 37 seconds left to put the Pacers up by 1 point, and the Pistons came up empty on their final three possessions as Indiana won for the seventh time in 10 games.
• Danny Granger had 24 points, including two game-icing free throws with five seconds left, to lead the Pacers.
• The Pistons snapped a three-game win streak and with its 41st loss guaranteed its first non-winning season since 2000-01.
-- ESPN Stats & Information
The loss to Indiana won't keep the Pistons out of the playoffs, but it could force them into a first-round matchup with Cleveland, which has the best record in the Eastern Conference.
"It really don't matter to us, to tell you the truth," said Richard Hamilton, who led Detroit with 23 points. "We're already near the bottom in the playoffs, so at this point, regardless who we play, we can't worry about who we're going to play. We've just got to know that we made it to the playoffs and hopefully we can have a run."
Indiana and Detroit have been bitter rivals since the Pacers were involved in a brawl with Pistons fans in 2004. The Pacers' fortunes have plummeted since then, and they were eliminated from playoff contention for the third straight year with a loss at Atlanta on Friday.
With two games left in the regular season, Detroit has already clinched its eighth straight playoff appearance but is currently No. 8, a game behind Chicago. The Pistons host the Bulls on Monday night.
"There is no worst-case scenario for us right now, the way we've been playing all year," Detroit's Tayshaun Prince said. "The best-case scenario is we got in the playoffs, so hopefully we can go in there and do some damage. I don't think being the eight-seed that we're in a situation we can't handle. Any situation would have been tough for us, the way we've been playing, the ups and downs we've had all season."
Indiana led by 12 early in the final quarter, but Detroit rallied and took a 102-101 lead on a basket by Hamilton with 56 seconds to go. The Pacers went back in front on a spinning layup by Jarrett Jack and iced the game with one free throw by Troy Murphy with 16 seconds left and two foul shots by Granger with 5 seconds to go.
Hamilton led Detroit with 23 points.
Brandon Rush had 21 points for the Pacers, while Jack and T.J. Ford added 18 apiece.
Prince scored 18 points for Detroit, and Antonio McDyess and Will Bynum each added 16.
"I still want to concentrate more on playing good basketball," Pistons coach Michael Curry said of the battle for playoff position. "We did everything we wanted to defensively in the first half except come up with the rebounds. ... We did a much better job on that in the second half."
Bynum had 10 points in the fourth quarter and helped rally the Pistons from a 90-78 deficit. He had six straight free throws that pulled Detroit within 94-93 with under 4 minutes remaining.
The Pacers regained a 99-95 lead on a basket and free throw by Jack, but Hamilton pulled the Pistons within two points and hit a 3-pointer with 2:09 left to give Detroit its first lead since the first quarter. There were two more lead changes before Jack scored the go-ahead basket.
Indiana's biggest lead in the first half was 35-27 early in the second quarter, when a layup and free throw by Ford finished a 10-0 run. With reserves on the floor, the Pistons tied the game one more time before the Pacers began pulling away.
Game notes
Indiana's streak of missing the playoffs three straight years is its longest since a five-year drought from 1982-86. ... The Pistons are the only Eastern Conference team to make the playoffs each of the past eight years . ... The Pistons and Pacers split four games this season, although Detroit has won 11 of the past 15 overall against Indiana. ... Murphy had 13 rebounds but only seven points, keeping him tied with Clark Kellogg for Indiana's NBA team record of 47 double-doubles in one season.

kiz and the other yoyos that post their dire warnings all day long are sleezy scumbags without a doubt. to their credit, however, if they shorted higher up they have made money. i have seen many times how frantic the shorts get when a stock is making a long term bottom and will no longer go down. do any real investors get the feeling that kiz and friends are about to lose whatever profits they have made already. desperation at the bottom. perhaps these mop squeezers are actually short at lower prices.
No doubt they are nervous. Thornbourg Garrett was on CNBC yesterday. He said things getting better and they raised 600 mil in the quarter so far. From his mouth not mine shorties. Just some facts and add in a rate cut and divy soon.

Liner carrier ZIM's new service aims at monitoring temperature and security of sensitive containerized cargo, with the package particularly suited the pharmaceutical industry.
With container trailers in short supply, some shippers and truckers are creating dedicated fleets.
Opponents say the fee drives port costs higher and those costs are difficult to pass on to shippers.
On-time performance is being hampered by congestion at West Coast ports.
DHS funding crisis means the agency will have to focus resources on border security, cargo clearance
The revised agreement would allow collaboration on congestion, transportation infrastructure needs and pollution mitigation.

American Airlines Center, Dallas, TX
The Dallas Mavericks emerged from a grueling stretch of two back-to-backs in five days with positive results, though their last win wasn't without controversy.
A home matchup Monday night against the shorthanded and struggling Orlando Magic will likely not be nearly as taxing.
Dallas went 3-1 over its stretch of four games in five nights, closing it out Saturday with a 110-107 home win over New Orleans. The Mavericks (22-16), who improved to 13-6 at home, got 40 points from Dirk Nowitzki, including 20 in the third quarter. The 40 points were his most since he scored 40 at Utah on April 16, 2012.
Nowitzki hit seven straight shots during the third quarter after starting 2 for 9. He was 10 of 19 with 24 points in a 17-point road win over the Pelicans a night earlier.
"Oh man, unbelievable," Monta Ellis said of Nowitzki, who was 15 of 16 from the free-throw line and is averaging 23.5 points over his last six contests while going 14 of 29 from 3-point range. "I've seen that a lot throughout my career. For him to come out and give us that lift tonight really opened up a lot for us as a team."
NBA President of Basketball Operations Rod Thorn said Sunday a foul should have been called on the last play of the game, which saw Ellis tie up Austin Rivers before he could attempt a 3-pointer prior to the buzzer.
Ellis scored 26 on 7 of 13 shooting and is 25 of 47 in his last three. He's averaging 27.8 points over his last eight contests versus Orlando.
The Magic (10-27) are trying to end a season-long seven-game losing streak, but will be without several key players. Leading scorer Arron Afflalo (20.8 ppg) is doubtful after sitting out Saturday's 120-94 loss in Denver due to a right foot injury he suffered in Friday's loss to Sacramento. Jameer Nelson also left Saturday's contest in the second half due to a hand injury and is considered day-to-day.
"I'll listen to my body and hopefully the pain goes away a little bit by tomorrow (Sunday)," said Nelson, who averages a team-best 6.4 assists.
Orlando, which is one of the league's worst road teams with a 3-16 record, is already without leading rebounder Nikola Vucevic (11.0 rpg) due to a concussion.
The Magic are surrendering 108.8 points on 48.9 percent shooting over the last five games and averaging just 86.9 points themselves during the seven-game skid.
"It's real frustrating just because we've been losing," said Tobias Harris, who scored a season-high 22 against the Nuggets. "A lot of our guys are hurt right now. We have to stay together as a team. Stay positive."
Dallas could also be without two key players in Shane Larkin and Shawn Marion, who are both day-to-day. Larkin sprained his right ankle in the third quarter versus New Orleans while Marion has missed three games in a row with a shoulder contusion.
The Mavericks won 108-100 at Orlando on Nov. 16 for their fourth straight victory in the series and 11th in 14 meetings. The teams combined to shoot 51.9 percent but Dallas scored 22 points off 17 Magic turnovers while only committing eight.

I think we'd like a 20mm prime of any sort in FF. Canon hasn't made a new once since 1992.
True, I went for the Sigma, which for all the bad press still is a great and fun lens to have in my kit.

Uppercase-only text or display messages. Some archaic operating systems still emit these. See also runes, smash case, fold case. There is a widespread legend (repeated by earlier versions of this entry, though tagged as folklore) that the uppercase-only support of various old character codes and I/O equipment was chosen by a religious person in a position of power at the Teletype Company because supporting both upper and lower cases was too expensive and supporting lower case only would have made it impossible to spell 'God' correctly. Not true; the upper-case interpretation of teleprinter codes was well established by 1870, long before Teletype was even founded. |

Before Alex Wilson got the call up to the Red Sox, he spent two successful seasons in Double-A Portland. Wilson was a starter for the Sea Dogs from 2010 to 2011 and was named to the Eastern League All-Star team. He was also named the Red Sox minor league pitcher of the year in 2011.
So Wilson, who now works out of the bullpen for the Sox, was the perfect pick to field questions from the New Auburn Little League team from Maine before Sunday's game.
The little leaguers asked Wilson multiple questions, including who his favorite player growing up was, his best moment with the Red Sox and if he has fun playing in the majors. Check out his answers in the video above.
