Echinoids have lived in the seas since the Late Ordovician, about 450 million years ago. The living representatives of echinoids are the familiar sea-urchins that inhabit many shallow coastal waters of the world.
Echinoids are marine animals belonging to the phylum Echinodermata and the class Echinoidea. They have a hard shell (test) covered with small knobs (tubercles) to which spines are attached in living echinoids. The test and spines are the parts normally found as fossils.
Spines, some poison-tipped, help protect echinoids from their predators, which include other echinoids, crustaceans, octopuses and fish. Some fossil echinoids made themselves less palatable as prey by having large solid spines. Echinoids also use their spines for moving around the sea-bed, and in some groups they are specially adapted for burrowing.
The Echinodermata take their name from the Greek words for spiny skin, a very conspicuous feature of many living echinoids. Since ancient times they have been revered as objects of religious or superstitious power.
In Denmark, echinoids were thought to be thunderbolts, and used to protect against lightning and witchcraft. An ancient Celtic tradition held that they were formed from froth thrown into the air by snakes, and retained magical powers if caught before falling to the ground.

You will see from the website at https://www.johnadrian.co.uk that John's work is varied and he is comfortable working all situations, studio and on location. It's difficult to find a photographer who has as varied a folio as John, partly because of John's long experience working in branding and advertising, and partly because of his fantastic knowledge of how to construct a successful photo.

Thenyousmile photography
Whether it is your wedding day, the weeks after you bring your new-born baby home, or a lazy summer weekend with all your family around you – sometimes you just wish you could stop the clock and make those special moments last forever. A great photograph has the power to keep your precious memories vividly alive, to bring all the emotion of a distant time rushing back every time it catches your eye. As a professional photographer, I take pride in capturing natural, evocative images that catch the eye and fire the imagination. I work both on location and in my studio, specialising predominantly in weddings and other events and portraiture for private clients, whilst also providing a range of high quality commercial photography services. I have a candid style, steering clear of artificial poses and fake smiles and aiming to capture genuine human interactions – the stolen glances, spontaneous laughter and moments of quiet reflection of which real life is made. Every picture tells a story, and the stories I tell with my camera are full of authentic emotions and unguarded personalities. I create pictures that show the love that binds a husband and wife as they reflect on decades of shared life, the joy and excitement of a bride and groom as they walk down the aisle, the awe and pride in a father's face as he holds his baby daughter. I have the technical skills, artistic flair, and high-quality modern equipment to turn any moment in time into a stunning, unforgettable work of art. Just as importantly, I take an easy-going and friendly approach to my work, I love the opportunities I get to work with such a wide variety of people, and have a gift for helping even the most reluctant subject relax and have fun during my shoots. And having worked as a stylist in the past, I will ensure you look your absolute best in every one of my pictures. If you are looking for a photographer with real expertise, empathy for her clients and a genuine passion for her work, please get in touch.

Wallace ArtworksCertificate of Excellence 2019
I believe that being a successful photographer isn't just about creativity and technical ability (although, those things are important too) but that it's about people. I am good at my job because I understand people and connect with them. I am a people person. I take the time to get to know a little bit about you before you book or hire me, which is why I insist we meet for a coffee and a chat before taking any wedding bookings. It is important to me that having your photograph taken is enjoyable. All work is undertaken by myself, I do not hire out or subcontract work. So when we meet to discuss your details, you know the person you talk to is the same person who will be photographing you. Wallace Artworks is based in Edinburgh, but I have accepted commissions nationwide. Director Photographer, Helen Wallace-Thomson is a member of the Society of Wedding and Portrait photographers (SWPP) as well as the Guild of Photographers. Wallace Artworks are a member of the Edinburgh Chamber of Commerce and as you would expect from any full-time professional photographer, hold both Public Liability and Professional Indemnity Insurance.
Life Reportage
Born in Italy from an Italian father and an English mother, Michael Valeriani has dedicated his life to photography. He studied in Italy at the European Institute of Design, in the USA at Brooks Institute of Photography in Santa Barbara and at the San Francisco Academy of Art, meanwhile becoming an airplane pilot. Even though his main art expression form is photography, he also produces a limited number of paintings and ceramic works. He has traveled world-wide along with his camera, capturing images that have been published on several magazines internationally. His work has been appreciated in all five continents, a goal in life that not many photographers can achieve. Former photographer for the Secret Services of the Italian Navy, he photographed a large number of personalities, among whom the King and Queen of Spain, and the President of Italy. He had been invited by the President of Algeria to take part in a diplomatic mission to illustrate Algeria to the world in all its beauty. Michael has followed his grandfather's footsteps - well known artist, whose work is visible on permanent exhibit at the "M. Valeriani Museum" in Latina, Italy. "I like to take pictures of whatever captures my attention. The particular thing about my photographs is that they are all real: nothing is set up or pre-planned; what you see is what happened in front of my eyes at that particular time and place. I don't plan to take good photographs; sometimes I amaze myself when I see the results. When I shoot I don't think much and at the same time I don't fully live that moment. I complete my visual experience only later when I look at the finished work. Photography is an extension of my vision and mind, it enables me to relive a moment over and over as intensely as the first time, when I wasn't really looking. I use photography to stop time and enjoy the pleasant visual experience later when it won't run away". Our fee structure is very simple, for weddings we offer three options: SMALL WEDDING £1500 1 photographer Unlimited number of pictures taken (often over 1000) 200 prints 20 enlargements (about A4 size) Digital correction and enhancement of every single image Wooden presentation box for your photos All your images on a CD or memory stick, watermarked and without licence to print MEDIUM WEDDING £1800 2 photographers Unlimited number of pictures taken (often over 1000) 300 prints 30 enlargements (about A4 size) Digital correction and enhancement of every single image 2 wooden presentation boxes for your photos All your images on a CD or memory stick, watermark FREE and with licence to print LARGE WEDDING £2800 3 photographers Unlimited number of pictures taken (often over 1000) 500 prints 50 enlargements (about A4 size) Digital correction and enhancement of every single image 3 wooden presentation boxes for your photos All your images on a CD or memory stick, watermarked and without licence to print EXTRA SERVICES Any extra service - if required - would be charged at £200 an hour, but this is entirely optional. For instance, some people like to have the photographer for an hour for the engagement party, or for the last dress fitting. I am based in Epsom (Surrey), so my prices are intended for weddings taking place within 20 miles from Epsom (measured with Google maps from Epsom Clocktower, KT19 8BJ). Anything over 20 miles will be subject to a transfer fee of £2 per mile.

Using Live and ReWire
- Live Versions: All
- Operating System: All
ReWire is a software protocol developed by Propellerhead which lets you synchronize two DAWs and stream audio and MIDI from one (the ReWire Device) to the other (the ReWire Host) on the same computer.
Live can run either as a ReWire Host or as a ReWire Device. However some DAWs may only run as ReWire Host. If your specific DAW is not listed here, check their manual to see whether they support ReWire Host or ReWire Device, or both.
In case you have further questions about how ReWire works, check our ReWire FAQ.
If you are experiencing technical issues with ReWire, check our Troubleshooting ReWire article.
- Installing ReWire
- Live as ReWire Host
- Live as ReWire Device
Installing ReWire
ReWire gets installed together with Live. After installing it, just launch Live while no other DAW is running simultaneously. This will:
- Install the latest ReWire version Live brings on your computer and
- Let Live set up its ReWire engine correctly.
Since the ReWire engine is version-dependent, this needs to be done for every Live version installed on your computer before you want to run it as a ReWire client. E.g. if you have used Live 8 as ReWire Device to another DAW until now and you decide to use Live 9 as the ReWire Device instead, it will be necessary to launch Live 9 by itself at least once, otherwise ReWire won't work.
Note: For Windows users, both the ReWire Host and ReWire Device may need to be run in administrator mode to successfully ReWire. To launch a program as Administrator, simply right-click the Live or other DAW icon from your desktop and select "Run as Administrator.".
For Mac users, Live may also request admin privileges when first trying to configure the ReWire engine, as access to the system configuration is temporarily required. Simply enter the admin password to overcome this step when Live asks you to do so.
Checking your DAW's bit architecture
ReWire will only work if both DAWs run with the same bit depth.
On Windows, you will need to install the correct version of the other ReWire software depending on whether you use Live 32-bit or 64-bit.
On Mac, certain application packages include both 32-bit and 64-bit formats. You can switch between the two formats as follows:
- Access the folder where the application is installed.
- Select the application file and press Cmd + I to display the Info window (alternatively, right click on the application file and choose "Show Info".)
- Tick the "Open in 32-bit mode" checkbox here to run the application in 32-bit mode. Leave it unchecked to use the program in 64-bit mode.
Live as ReWire Host
If you want to use Live as ReWire Host, start Live first.
Once the program has finished loading, you can launch the second application, which will automatically run as ReWire Device.
By pressing the play button in either the ReWire Host or the ReWire Device application, both DAWs will playback in sync.
To hear the audio generated from the DAW running as the ReWire Device, create an audio track in Live and select the ReWire Device in the track's Input Type chooser ("Audio From" drop down menu). Additionally, enable Input Monitoring for this track.
ReWire provides a large number of channels to allow the routing of individual tracks from the ReWire Device application into discrete audio tracks in Live.
You can choose which ReWire channels to monitor with a specific audio track in Live using the track's Input Channel chooser (second drop-down menu in the "Audio From" section).
To send MIDI from Live to the ReWire Device, create a MIDI track in Live first. Next, in the MIDI track's Output Type chooser ("MIDI To" drop-down menu), select the ReWire Device. The Output Channel chooser will now let you choose a specific track or device from the session in the ReWire Device DAW.
Live as ReWire Device
Before starting, please note that when Live is running as a ReWire Device:
- No VST or AU plug-ins are available.
- Max for Live is not available.
- No physical audio inputs/outputs are available in Live. The ReWire Host application is handling the audio interface and the ins/outs. External material can be recorded with the ReWire Host application only.
- MIDI sync in and out is disabled.
Note: ln Live 9 and earlier, MIDI controllers and Control Surfaces are not available when Live is running in ReWire device mode. In the CPU preferences, it's possible to enable/disable Multicore/Multiprocesser Rewire.
Launch the DAW you intend to use as ReWire Host first.
Depending on which application you are going to use, Live will either automatically run as ReWire Device without requiring any action, or it will be necessary to load a specific ReWire object in the ReWire Host application before launching Live.
The following is a quick reference for some of the most common DAWs with which you can use Live as a ReWire Device. We recommend referring to each application's user manual to find out more details.
Cubase requires activating a ReWire Device before launching Live, otherwise it will not run as ReWire Device. Click on the Devices menu and select Ableton Live ReWire.
A new channel will then be created automatically in Cubase.
Before launching Live, you also need to enable at least one stereo ReWire bus: do that by clicking on the respective buttons in the newly opened Ableton Live ReWire Device.
Now launch Live: the program will run as ReWire Device (provided both applications run with the same bit architecture as mentioned above).
To send MIDI from Cubase to Live, create a MIDI channel in Cubase. In its MIDI output section you will be able to choose one of the available Live MIDI tracks as a destination.
If Logic is running, Live will automatically start in ReWire Device mode (provided both programs run with the same bit architecture as mentioned above). Please note that Logic can only be used as ReWire Host.
Create an Auxiliary Channel in Logic and choose Ableton Live from the Input menu to route audio from Live. Should no ReWire channel be available, please turn off "Multi Processor Support" in Logic if this is activated.
To send MIDI from Logic to Live, create a ReWire object in Logic's Environment Window.
If you are using Logic 7 or before, please check Logic's audio preferences and disable (uncheck) the option for "Release Audio in Background if Stopped."
Logic X
In Logic X the ReWire behavior has changed: in order to use Live as ReWire Device, it is first necessary to enable the ReWire engine in Logic X before launching Live.
To do so, open the Logic Preferences and go the Audio Panel > Devices tab. Here please set the "ReWire Mode" menu to either Live or Playback mode.
Please also note that, being Logic X exclusively available as a 64-bit application, only a 64-bit Live version can be ReWired to it. Logic X offers ReWire Host functionality only. It can not be run as ReWire Device.
1. Start Logic, then start Live. Live will display "Running as ReWire Device" in the splash screen:
2. To send MIDI from Logic to MIDI tracks in Live, create a new External MIDI track in Logic.
3. In the Library view, choose Ableton Live > (name of MIDI track in Live you wish to send MIDI to).
4. To receive audio from Live in Logic, go to the Mixer view. Under Options, choose "Create New Auxiliary Channel Strip".
5. Choose "Ableton Live: RW:Mix L/R" as the input for the Auxiliary Channel Strip. Be sure to turn up the track volume.
In case you have not yet used Live, launch it once standalone. This way, it can install its ReWire engine in your system. Afterwards, close Live and launch n-Track. Go to the n-Track "Add Channel" menu, select "Add Rewire device" menu, and select "Ableton Live".
Activate the ReWire channels in the n-Track ReWire menu.
To see the ReWire channels in n-Track's timeline, select the arrow on top left corner and check "Show Rewire channels".
Pro Tools
Before launching Live, create an Audio or Aux channel and load the instrument "Ableton Live" in the track as an Insert.
The benefit of using an audio channel would be that you can record audio directly in this track from ReWire without any other routing. On the other side, this channel will need to be set on Input Monitoring, otherwise no audio will be heard.
Now you can launch Live, which will start as a ReWire Device.
To control a Live Device from Pro Tools via MIDI, create a MIDI channel in Pro Tools: the various MIDI channels currently available in the Live Set will appear as a choice in the channel's MIDI out menu.
Reaper also requires you to load an Ableton Live ReWire object before launching Live.
Create a new track in Reaper, click on the FX button and choose Ableton Live from the list.
To send MIDI from Reaper to Live, create another channel, and click on its I/O button.
In the Sends menu, create a routing to the track in Reaper where the Ableton Live object is loaded.
First start Live and once it is fully loaded, launch Reason. In this order, Reason will launch as a Rewire Device. The ReWire connection has been successfully established when you see the active audio driver in Reason's preferences as well as the Hardware Interface list "Rewire Device Mode."
If you want to route multiple audio outputs from Reason to Live, wire the respective Reason devices to the available channels of Reason's virtual Hardware Interface. For more information about Reason's routing options, take a look at the Reason manual.
To hear the audio generated from Reason, create an audio track in Live and select Reason in the track's Input Type chooser ("Audio From" drop-down menu). Additionally, enable Input Monitoring for this track
By default, the main audio output of Reason is the ReWire channel 1/2. If you have wired multiple audio outputs in Reason's Hardware Interface, create an Audio Track in Live for each stereo output in Reason and select the respective Reason channel in the track's Input Type chooser ("Audio From" drop-down menu).
As a ReWire Host, Live can send MIDI messages to Reason. Create a new MIDI Track in Live and use the track's Output Channel chooser ("MIDI To" drop-down menu) to select the target device in Reason. Live will list all the devices that have been created in the Reason song and which can be controlled via MIDI.

GLENDALE — After suffering a shoulder injury that stemmed from a violent home-plate collision last season, Gregg Zaun found himself behind home plate for the first time Sunday during a spring training contest against the Oakland Athletics at the Peoria Sports Complex in Peoria, Ariz.
Zaun caught three innings and had two plate appearances. Shortly after the game ended, Zaun, a Glendale native and 1989 St. Francis High graduate, took off his equipment and tugged off his uniform for the final time before announcing his retirement on Sunday following a 16-year Major League Baseball career.
"I caught Sunday and I felt fine physically," said Zaun, 39, in a phone interview with the News-Press on Monday from Peoria. "Mentally, I wasn't that into it.
"I told [San Diego Manager] Bud Black and [General Manager] Jed Hoyer where my head was at and I wanted to make sure they knew I had their best interests [in mind]. I had a lot of fun playing and I'm happy it lasted as long as I did.
"It was an easy decision for me to make."
In 1,232 career games, Zaun batted .252 (878-3,489) with 194 doubles, 88 home runs and 446 runs batted in. He began his career in 1995 with the Baltimore Orioles after being drafted in 1989 and played for nine teams. Zaun helped the Florida Marlins win the 1997 World Series. He also played for the Texas Rangers, Kansas City Royals, Houston Astros, Colorado Rockies, Toronto Blue Jays, Tampa Bay Rays and Milwaukee Brewers.
After handling most of the starting catching responsibilities with Milwaukee last season, Zaun suffered what looked to be a possible career-ending injury less than a month into season after he was involved in a home-plate collision and sustained a torn labrum in his right shoulder. Zaun landed on the disabled list May 21 and his season was ruled over in June after undergoing surgery. He then publicly stated that he was contemplating retirement.
Zaun, who hit .265 with two homers and drove in 14 runs in 28 games with the Milwaukee Brewers last season, signed a minor-league contract with the Padres in early January and looked at finding a role with them. He played in several spring training games and appeared to regain stamina and strength in his shoulder.
"Everything was fine," said Zaun, a switch hitter and the nephew of former major league catcher Rick Dempsey. "I wanted to come down here and give it another shot.
"I feel good and I woke up fine Monday morning. I enjoyed what I was able to do on the field and I learned a lot from guys like [former manager] Jim Leyland and [former teammate] Brad Ausmus.
"Last year, I felt like I was swinging the bat well, even after starting off 0 for 21. Then, I had somewhere between 40-50 hits and things were coming together. That injury, along with some of the other ones I had, probably limited me from the stat part."
Zaun said he's entertaining the possibility of joining the Toronto Blue Jays broadcast team. During the past five postseasons, Zaun has served as an analyst for Rogers Sportsnet, a Canadian English-language cable television sports specialty channel owned by Rogers Communications.
Zaun said he'd consider being a commentator for the Toronto Blue Jays, who he played five seasons for and have their games broadcast by Rogers Sportsnet.
"I'm looking at some broadcast opportunities because I think that's where my future lies," Zaun said. "I got my feet wet doing the postseason broadcasts and I enjoyed it a lot."
St. Francis Principal Tom Moran, who coached the school's baseball team from 1989-90, said he had mixed emotions concerning the retirement of Zaun, who Moran coached during his senior season.
"It's days like this where you are kind of happy and sad," said Moran, who also coached former Major League All-Star Mark Loretta. "I'm really happy for him being able to start a new phase with baseball and he understands broadcasting.
"It's sad for baseball because I'll miss watching him play. It was always a thrill to get to watch him play.
"He stopped by the school before heading down for spring training and we sat down and talked for about a half hour. He went out there and gave it the best he could. At least he's leaving on his own terms and I'm happy for that. He's very well-spoken and he sure knows the game."

Patently Apple got their hands on an Apple patent application that shows future iPads may just be designed with a built-in kickstand. iPads, and perhaps Cinema Displays, would have the ability to pivot to allow for use in landscape and portrait mode. Apple states that products with displays need a mechanism to support the object in multiple configurations. The patent also mentions the possible addition of a kickstand to other Apple products such as the iPhone.
Would you like to see a kickstand on a future version of the iPad or even maybe the iPhone someday?

1. Re: Random Runtime ErrorsSteve Howard, ACP Aug 24, 2011 12:56 AM (in response to CAP Deloitte)
Depends. Some runtime errors used to be common and easy to address - e.g. by
searching MSDN. Care to share symptoms and/or screenshot?
2. Re: Random Runtime ErrorsCAP Deloitte Aug 24, 2011 1:08 AM (in response to Steve Howard, ACP)
Here is some background, we have over 200 modules each in an individual .exe. Once a module is completed the learner click on a button to go to the next module (exe). We use a jumpfile function at the end of each module to transfer the variables and open the next exe for training. Here is a printscreen as well however it doesn't have a lot of information. The runtime error happens as soon as they click on the button to jump to the next module.
3. Re: Random Runtime ErrorsSteve Howard, ACP Aug 24, 2011 2:59 AM (in response to CAP Deloitte)
Lots of things to think about here.
First thing - have you looked carefully at the data that is passed and
what the receiving file expects to see? I think it is possible to
introduce a conflict with malformed data. Easiest way to confirm this
is to Trace your data on screen, or to a text file, before you do the
JumpFile. Make sure that the receiving files all have the required
variables in place. Make sure that if you are passing List data you
are careful to check that you pass what you think you are passing.
Of course, if the issue is as random as you say, this may not help, soooo ...
I remember random issues like this many years ago with a similar
setup. Apparently there was a very obscure bug that caused it and, I
think, was fixed in Authorware 7.
You are not going to like my suggestion, but here goes ...
Download the Authorware 7 trial and repackage all your lessons and
test them again. I know horrible suggestion, right? With 200 lessons
that could take a while to test
Alternatively you can try looking at how you navigate between lessons
- is it a constant forwards and random trail? Or do your learners
always return to a 'home' file, or menu, at stages throughout the
Lastly, you can also consider simply force-closing the course at
times. Without knowing exactly how your lessons are stitched together,
I don't know hw practical it is for you to try this, but I think you
can use Quit(n) to quit and restart an Authorware file ... I forget
what number you need to use, 1, 2, 3 or 4.
4. Re: Random Runtime ErrorsCAP Deloitte Aug 24, 2011 3:27 AM (in response to Steve Howard, ACP)
Thank you Steve, these are definetly a couple of things that can possibly assist in finding the problem. We have already checked the variables and according to the developers these are 100% correct.
What I do want to know more about is the obscure little bug you mentioned. Where can I find additional information regarding this. We already have authorware 7 but due to the size of all the content we haven't upgraded from 6.5.
In terms of navigation, at the beginning of each file it queries the db to detemine if the file must be done by the specific learner. This is done using a simple binary structure where 1 means the module must be done and 0 that it must be skipped. The modules are set under different courses and at the beginning of each course the same check is performed to determine if there are active modules to be completed in the course. If not it goes to the next course or module and performs the same check. We do not use a "home" file but do use a file to obtain initial configuration information from the database and jump to a specific module in the system if the learner is already busy with a session. If the learner starts for the first time it just jumps to the first course in the structure.
Unfortunatly we cannot quit the individual exe's as this will mean we will have adapt the entire workflow of the system.
If you can perhaps assist me with information on the bug as you mentioned, I might be able to work from there.
Thank you so far for the assistance.
5. Re: Random Runtime ErrorsMichael V Baker Aug 24, 2011 5:33 AM (in response to CAP Deloitte)
One thing that might not be obvious to check is the 'initial type' of the variables. There's an internal similarity between number variables and list variables. If the type of the passing module differs from the type of the receiving module, then Authorware could reference memory that doesn't belong to it. There's also a possibility of that when the type of list being linear list vs. property list differs from module to module.
6. Re: Random Runtime ErrorsCAP Deloitte Aug 24, 2011 5:56 AM (in response to Michael V Baker)
Hi Mike
Can you perhaps explain what the initial type of the variables are? How you set it, what types there are etc? Also I do not understand what you mean with the linear list vs property list? Sorry, I am actually the DBA on the system and trying to resolve the issue and my Authorware knowledge is not that good.
7. Re: Random Runtime ErrorsSteve Howard, ACP Aug 24, 2011 6:07 AM (in response to CAP Deloitte)1 person found this helpful
Mike Baker should know more about the bug than me, since he was one of
the Authorware ngineers. My memory says it was something internal to
Authorware and not something you can specifically address.
As for Type - each variable can be examined in the Properties window
of the Autorware file. The variable type can be set there
"" denotes alphanumeric
0 denotes numeric
[] denotes List
These can also be set in code, but I beleive Mike is referring to the
initial setting of the file before any code is launched. Basically if
you are passing a List called "Data" there should also be a variable
in the receiving file called "Data" and it should be set as a list in
the Properties window.
None of this will make any sense if you don't use Authorware :-/
8. Re: Random Runtime ErrorsCAP Deloitte Aug 24, 2011 6:20 AM (in response to Steve Howard, ACP)
Thanks Steve, well it might have come out wrong but I do use Authorware, I am just not that proficient with it as a dedicated developer would be.
Mike regarding the bug, can you shed some light on that? Can it be possible that it could cause the issues we are experiencing? I do believe our variables are set correct (slight assumption from my part) as the entire systems does work running it locally on my test environment.
9. Re: Random Runtime ErrorsMichael V Baker Aug 24, 2011 8:10 AM (in response to CAP Deloitte)1 person found this helpful
As Steve mentioned, the initial type is set up when you create the variable. The setting can be viewed in the variables dialog and adjusted there as well. Just change the content in the entry box from 0 or "" to an empty linear list [] or an empty properyt list [:]. Some of Authorware's variables are populated with the actual values and some are tracked by memory address. For instance in the linear list the value contains a memory address. So lets say you have var foo := 123 in one file and var foo := [] in antoher file. When the transfer happens from one file to another it's possible for Authorware to be given the number variable but the type isn't changed to number, it still thinks it's a list. In most cases the conversion of type is handled for you but there are a couple of combinations where it slipped through without the data type update. Because of this it's important to have variables that stay consistent types between if they're copied between files.
10. Re: Random Runtime ErrorsCAP Deloitte Aug 24, 2011 11:48 PM (in response to Michael V Baker)
Thank you Mike. We are now in the process of checking all the variables in each exe. This will take some time and I will post back as soon as we are done testing etc. One question though, is there a limitation on the amount of variables transfered from one file to the next?
Thanks for the help guys.
11. Re: Random Runtime ErrorsMichael V Baker Aug 25, 2011 5:22 AM (in response to CAP Deloitte)
There shouldn't be a limit to the amount that can be transferred. The variables and their contents are transferred using a file. They're written out to the file, then the new content is loaded into the runtime, then the variable's content is read in from the file.
12. Re: Random Runtime ErrorsCAP Deloitte Oct 12, 2011 1:32 AM (in response to Michael V Baker)
Hi Mike, we redid all the variables in the application, however we are still experiencing the same issue with the authorware runtime. Any other tips, tricks or suggestions regarding this? We have determined that it does not happen randomly, but with specific exe's within the solution and the structure in the specific exe's are the same as in the other 270 odd exe's which the application consist of.
13. Re: Random Runtime ErrorsMichael V Baker Oct 12, 2011 5:56 AM (in response to CAP Deloitte)
Do you know how to get to the reports from the crash? Next time it happens get copies of those files and we can take a look at them to see if it's within a particular module such as one of the XMO or U32 files. That might narrow down the possibilities.
Another thing we can try is to strip out extra unused data. When you work on an Authorware file it saves time by not compressing everything over and over and over each time you modify the file. So there's a menu option "File / Save and Compact" that removes this excess. If the file is small enough, and your machine has enough ram to hold it, you can select the whole file, copy it onto the clipboard, and paste it into another file. Save and compact is good, copy and paste does a similar operation in a different way and sometimes gets more. The trouble with copy and paste is that it can lose references between icons if the icon is renamed because of a conflict.
If you try to copy and paste and you get an error during the paste, then you may have found a corrupt icon. What we usually do in this case is binary chop search. Copy half the file and try to paste, if no error then copy the other half. Keep dividing the working section in half until you isolate the icon causing the problem. Yank that icon and rebuild it.
Just an afterthought... are you using a database to store information? I know that ODBC crashes if you try to close a resource twice. I didn't think of it at first because it was random crash.

Really, good tail gating in Atlanta, Ok
I went to a Seahawk Falcons game once in Atlanta, I believe it was the first year the Falcons were without Vick. There was a grand total of 3 people tail gating. Two Falcon fans BBQing in an empty parking lot and this one guy wearing a SA jersey. The guy wearing the SA jersey had the most peculiar way of telling us how he was related to SA. Shawns dad is his wifes dad. Shawn is my brother in law would of been simpler if you ask me. He wasn't BSing either, because when we got inside the stadium, I noticed that he had a side line pass and was on the field around the players.

Oceanic whitetip shark fishing banned
Friday, March 15, 2013, 04:00 (GMT + 9)
As part of the last meeting of the Convention on International Trade of Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (Cites), held this week in Bangkok (Thailand), the national government banned fishing for oceanic whitetip shark (Carcharhinus longimanus) in Brazilian waters.
The decision was made in order to preserve this endangered species.
According to a Normative Instruction of the Ministry of the Environment published in the Official Journal of Unión, the ban on fishing this resource has come into effect since Wednesday, as well as on-board storage, transport, unloading and marketing.
That is, the fishermen who catch oceanic sharks -- even accidentally -- will have to return them to the sea dead or alive.
And the boats that are caught carrying fins or specimens will be penalized with the loss of the fishing license.
The new order provides an exception only for fishing for the species for duly authorized scientific studies.
Besides, the Ministry of Environment ordered fishermen to include the oceanic sharks that are caught and returned to the sea in their vessel logbooks.
For several years, the Brazilian executive has tried to include the whitetip shark among protected species but the fishing sector disagreed because it is a really demanded species as the fins offer high market value, EFE agency reports.
During the meeting, the 178 member countries of the Convention confirmed the protection of the oceanic whitetip shark, three species of hammerhead shark, porbeagle shark, and sting rays.
According to Susan Lieberman, a member of the Pew organization, "It has been the most important day for the ocean in 40 years of the history of Cites."
While Carlos Drews, from the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), said: "It is a historic moment where science has defeated politics," reported Terra.

The following is an editorial by Armstrong Williams.
Recently at the Museum of the Bible we hosted a live tv town hall on Youth and Morality. What is missing from the continuous discussion surrounding youth and violence, suicide, disrespect of parenting, drug addiction etc. is a needed conversation about youth and moral striving. We were joined by a thought provoking panel that included Charlie Kirk, Shelby Emmett, Candace Owens, and Shermichael Singleton. The overall consensus following the debate was that our young adults felt the discussion was long overdue and they were more than prepared to discuss the importance of moral striving and continuous character building.
I have often wondered - what does it mean to live a life of purpose and meaning? As I reflect on the experiences I have had in life a few recurring themes seem to emerge. For me, living on purpose has meant creating a wealthy life. And by wealthy, I am referring to all aspects of wealth, be it material wealth, enjoying and emoting good health, and striving to make a positive difference in the lives of others.
With all of the many options and paths one could possibly take, how does one stay on the path towards ones purpose? The way forward for me has involved constant introspection, observation and work. I'm not here referring to working on my career or business, although that is certainly a part of it. I'm taking about the meta-work that one does even before one shows up to the office on a daily basis. That work is the self-sacrifice, working a strengthening character and avoiding the pitfalls of temptation and lust. It is the work of self-abnegation and prudence, the daily sacrifices made in service of a higher ideal.
That is the work that ultimately grants us the freedom and true fulfillment we are seeking. Those things that seem attractive to us in the short term - sleeping in just another hour, giving in the to temptation to over-consume food or gratuitous sex or immediate gratification. Those pleasure-seeking behaviors do not provide long-term happiness.
No true joy does not arise from the vulgar applause of adoring crowds, or the creature comforts of mediocrity. They arise from the fruits of years of labor, diligently and consistently applied. The deep joy of working towards a goal and seeing it come to fruition over time is what life can be all about.
This process of spiritual striving and consistent action towards goals, while avoiding immediate, pleasure seeking behaviors, is the most advanced form of spiritual technology I have found. It is far more powerful than the magic of compound interest as a builder of wealth because it aligns is with the creative forces of the universe.
The most effective way to achieve long-term success in any endeavor, weather it be health or business or life in general is to align one's personal goals with the interests of the whole. Sex is a great case in point. Sex can be both pleasurable to the individual, and, if properly aligned with the purpose of procreation, also serves the whole.
As human beings we have been blessed with both the power of intelligence and the gift of choice. This has enabled us to create tools that give us dominion over the earth and other creatures. But if not used properly, they can also lead to destruction. We have seen this story repeat itself over and over again, from the Tower of Babel, to the mistaken assumption that prompts some to choose abortions over the sanctity of life.
The so-called sexual revolution was brought to us by technology that enabled us to seemingly forestall the results of sex thorough birth control, or erase the responsibility created by sex through the abomination of abortion. It supposedly freed women up to seek professional careers, and cheapened the transaction cost of casual relationships. It freed men to opt out of family formation while doing their own thing. So-called 'free love' is never in fact free. The true cost of love and intimacy is commitment and faithfulness. These are enduring principles, unchanged by any artifice man can possibly engineer.
But the truth is, no such bargain could ever be struck. In reality, pleasure-seeking behaviors sex outside of the bonds of marriage and abortion work to thwart the creative process. It creates the mentality that one should have sex without being spiritually, emotionally and economically prepared to manage the creative force that sex invites and often demands. Our success here on earth comes from using the creative power of God to manifest iterative creations with the gifts of intelligence and artistry. We tend to pollute this connection when we diverge from pursuing our God-given purpose.
Only when we align pleasure with purpose can we achieve true joy. Self-discipline and living in accord with the laws of God is the only path to freedom in this life and the next. This is the most powerful spiritual technology known to man.

Actress Leighton Meester has accepted a proposal from her boyfriend Adam Brody after just 10 months of dating, according to multiple reports.
The couple celebrated the happy news at an engagement party with friends and family in California on November 10, according to Wonderwall.com.
A source tells Star magazine, "Right now their plan is to get married next summer. They are still deciding if they want a destination wedding or if they'll marry in southern California somewhere."
Meester and Brody first met in 2011 on the set of film "The Oranges," but did not start dating until February.
This will be the first marriage for the pair, which has a history of striking up relationships with co-stars: Meester previously dated fellow "Gossip Girl" actor Sebastian Stan, while Brody romanced Rachel Bilson, whom he worked with on "The O.C.," from 2003 to 2006.
Representatives for the couple had yet to respond to requests for a comment as WENN went to press.

Hechavarria helps Marlins down Mets in extras
Flushing, NY – For the second consecutive day, Adeiny Hechavarria pushed the go-ahead run across in extras and the Miami Marlins went on to take an 8-4 victory in 10 innings against the New York Mets Sunday at Citi Field.
Hechavarria's RBI single in the 20th inning Saturday helped lift the Marlins to a 2-1 victory and end the longest game of the season. His heroics came a bit earlier Sunday in the finale of this rain-shortened two-game set, and got a little help on the play.
Bobby Parnell (4-3) allowed a pair of singles to start his second inning of work. Hechavarria came to the plate and ripped a grounder toward second, but Daniel Murphy took his eye off the ball while trying to turn a double play and the ball scooted into right field to allow the go-ahead run to score.
Greg Dobbs added a sacrifice fly and Miguel Olivo smashed a two-run homer to break open the contest. Derek Dietrich had two hits -- including a game-tying solo homer in the eighth -- and also scored twice.
Chad Qualls (1-0) picked up the win in Miami's fifth straight victory against New York and eighth in 11 contests this season. The Marlins have just 18 victories on the campaign.
Since sweeping a four-game set from the New York Yankees, the Mets have dropped six of seven -- including five to the league-worst Marlins.
"It's certainly pretty close," Mets manager Terry Collins said on whether this was the team's lowest point. "This is when you reach down and find out who belongs here and who doesn't."
David Wright had a two-run double and Murphy had a solo homer with two RBI to help build a 4-1 lead for New York, but the offense went 1-for-22 with seven strikeouts after the third inning.
Logan Morrison, who was activated off the 60-day disabled list prior to the contest, had two hits in his season-debut for Miami and scored the go-ahead run. It was his first game since July 28 of last season.
"He was a little shot of energy in the dugout, when after playing 20 innings, let's face it, you need it," Marlins manager Mike Redmond said. "We needed somebody to energize you and get you fired up. He did that. It was a big hit. It was good to see him out there."
Jonathon Niese went 6 2/3 frames for New York after having his previous start skipped over due to shoulder tendinitis. He was in control early but the Marlins got to the lefty by the sixth.
Ed Lucas and Deitrich each laced one-out singles and Marcell Ozuna followed with a double off the wall in right to bring both runners home and cut the Marlins' deficit to 4-3.
After tough innings in the second and third, Marlins starter Tom Koehler settled down to retire 14 of the last 15 batters he faced, and Deitrich took him off the hook by ripping a solo shot to right off Mets reliever Scott Rice.
Hechavarria knocked in the first run with a single in the second, but Murphy countered in the bottom half of the frame with a leadoff homer.
Koehler packed the bags in the third and Wright came through with a two-run double into center and the Mets took a 4-1 lead on Murphy's groundout.
Game Notes
After the game, the Mets optioned first baseman Ike Davis, outfielder Mike Baxter and relief pitcher Robert Carson to Triple-A Las Vegas. Davis went 0- for-3 and is batting .163 on the season, while Baxter went 0-for-4 and Carson served up Olivo's homer in Sunday's setback ...Koehler went seven innings and was charged with all four runs on six hits ... The Mets were 2-for-27 with runners in scoring position during this two-game set, including a team-record 0-for-19 in Saturday's loss ... Rice had not allowed a home run in the his previous 33 appearances this season ... Koehler registered his first major league hit with a single in the seventh inning.

The post-election rout in U.S. stocks has driven the Standard & Poor's 500 Index down so far that it would have to advance 26 percent to reach the valuation of bull markets since John F. Kennedy was in the White House.
Investors have seen $806 billion erased from the value of American equities since President Barack Obama was re-elected Nov. 6 in the biggest decline since May. The combination of falling stocks and rising profits as the economy recovers has left the S&P 500's price-earnings ratio below the ending level of eight of the nine bull markets since 1962 and beneath the average of any since Ronald Reagan was in power.
Bears say the 4.8 drop in the S&P 500 and valuations show investors are losing confidence that Congress and Obama will reach a budget compromise that would keep the recovery from stalling. Bulls, including the top strategists at six Wall Street firms, say that the declines are another reason to buy and that stock prices from Apple Inc. to Dollar Tree Inc. are bound to improve as earnings increase.
"The stock market looks cheap because people are way too pessimistic about what growth looks like for the next 10 years," said Brian Jacobsen, who helps oversee $208 billion as chief strategist at Wells Fargo Advantage Funds and predicts the S&P 500 will rise 47 percent to 2,000 in 2014. "You can get big and rapid moves in the market when expectations are so low."
Jan. 1
Concern about the so-called fiscal cliff -- $607 billion of spending cuts and tax increases that automatically go into effect Jan. 1 -- overshadowed better-than-estimated profit reports from Cisco Systems Inc. and Home Depot Inc. last week, sending the S&P 500 down 1.5 percent to 1,359.88. Obama began face-to-face talks with top Republicans and Democrats on Nov. 16 after he and House Speaker John Boehner said they will work toward an agreement. Boehner and White House Press Secretary Jay Carney described the meeting as "constructive."
Even as shares fall, strategists are optimistic about gains next year. The S&P 500 will rally 17 percent to a record 1,585 by the end of 2013, according to the average forecast.
Douglas Kass, the founder of Seabreeze Partners Management Inc. in Palm Beach, Florida, who recommended buying stocks at the March 2009 low says the benchmark gauge may rise 18 percent to 1,600 next year as politicians reach a budget compromise and the economy continues to expand.
'Twice Shy'
"The No. 1 mistake that is being made is the old proverb, 'Once bitten, twice shy'," Kass said in a Nov. 14 Bloomberg Radio interview with Tom Keene. "Market participants today are incorrectly playing the last war, which took place during the budget deliberations in August of last year. Those fears are misplaced."
Savita Subramanian of Bank of America Corp. says the index will rally to 1,600 on rising corporate profits and diminishing concerns about the global economy. John Stoltzfus, at Oppenheimer & Co., forecasts the gauge will climb to 1,585 and Goldman Sachs Group Inc.'s David Kostin estimates 1,575, based on support from the Federal Reserve's third round of bond purchases. Fed Chairman Ben S. Bernanke pledged in September that the central bank will buy $40 billion of mortgage securities a month until the U.S. labor market recovers.
Optimism is misplaced unless Obama and Republican leaders are able to agree on measures to avoid the mandated cuts and tax increases, according to James Bianco, president of Bianco Research LLC in Chicago.
The $607 billion burden could cause the world's largest economy to shrink 0.5 percent next year, according to a Nov. 8 Congressional Budget Office report.
'More Pain'
"Up until the election day no one had priced in a fiscal cliff because the thinking overwhelmingly on Wall Street was there wasn't going to be one," Bianco said in a Nov. 14 Bloomberg Television interview. "We're only now starting to price it in and we've only been pricing it in for a week. If we continue to keep our pencils down, there's going to be a lot more pain."
The economy is recovering at the slowest post-recession rate since World War II, as the housing market stagnated until this year and unemployment stayed above 8 percent through August.
Lawmakers of both parties say they want to avoid the fiscal cliff's economic shock while addressing the deficit. Boehner said Nov. 16 that Republicans are willing to consider revenue- raising measures in exchange for spending cuts. Obama said tax rates should rise without specifying that the top rate must return to the 39.6 percent stipulated.
Below Average
While the S&P 500 has doubled since Obama first took office, the index's price-earnings ratio was lower than the 16.4 six-decade average for 38 of the rally's 46 months, as earnings surged, data compiled by Bloomberg show.
The multiple is up 35 percent since March 2009, compared with the average expansion of 55 percent in bull markets since 1962, Bloomberg data show. For the past 2 1/2 years, the S&P 500 hasn't climbed higher than 16 times earnings, compared with the average ratio of 17.4 in past rallies.
The valuation rose to a high of 13.8 from 7.3 during the first 15 months of the 1982 advance that pushed the S&P 500 up 229 percent, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. In the 1990s rally led by technology companies, it almost doubled to 28.5 during the eight years.
'Glum to Glee'
"As a country, we go from glum to glee and glum to glee over and over again," James Paulsen, the chief investment strategist at Minneapolis-based Wells Capital Management, which oversees about $325 billion, said in a phone interview. "After the 2008 recession and the tech bubble, we're back at glum, so what comes next?" he said. "Confidence, and the ability to rebuild it, is our biggest asset for the future."
Economists predict global GDP will increase 2.6 percent next year from 2.2 percent in 2012, the slowest since it contracted three years ago, according to a survey by Bloomberg. The pace of U.S. growth will be 2 percent in 2013, down from 2.2 percent this year, according to the median of 98 estimates.
The tumble since Obama defeated Republican candidate Mitt Romney, with 303 electoral votes to 206, pushed the benchmark gauge to 13.7 times reported profits, lower than the 15.5 average ratio since March 2009, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Only one bull market since 1962 has ended with a lower valuation: the six-year cycle through 1980 in which the index gained 126 percent to 140.52, or 9.1 times profits.
Average Ratio
The ratio averaged 17.4 during the nine rallies and ended at about 19.9. Reaching the mean level would require a 26 percent gain in the S&P 500, holding earnings constant, data compiled by Bloomberg show. Should profits meet analysts' 2013 projection, the index would need a 42 percent gain from the Nov. 16 closing price. Earnings are forecast to climb to a record $110.80 a share next year, almost double what companies posted in 2008, analyst estimates compiled by Bloomberg show.
"Valuations are cheap given what we've seen in earnings," said Hank Smith, chief investment officer at Haverford Trust Co. in Radnor, Pennsylvania. His firm oversees $6.5 billion in assets. "Corporate America is strong, balance sheets are exceptionally strong and flush with cash. We do not believe we'll have a contraction in earnings next year. We expect profit growth to re-accelerate in the second half of 2013."
Apple Multiple
Apple, which has fallen 25 percent from its high of $702.10 on Sept. 19 traded at 11.9 times reported profits, a 14 percent discount to its five-year average, data compiled by Bloomberg show. The ratio reached a record 23.3 times income 2 1/2 years ago, even after the Cupertino, California-based company posted record earnings in the first quarter.
Profits for Dollar Tree, which sells everything from toys to pet food for $1 or less, will rise 24 percent in fiscal 2013, ending in January, and 13 percent the next year, according to analyst estimates. While the shares have almost tripled since March 2009, the price-earnings ratio at 16.7 is 21 percent below the five-year average.
Southwest Airlines Co. trades 22 percent below its historic valuation, even though earnings at the Dallas-based company have surpassed analyst projections for the past five quarters and are forecast to rise 65 percent in 2013. The shares are up 4.3 percent in 2012.
Of the 500 companies in the index, 245 have price-earnings ratios below their five-year means, data compiled by Bloomberg show. That's up from 196 at this time last year and 174 two years ago, the data show.
Bull markets "normally finish with a real burst of hyper enthusiasm," Michael Shaoul, chairman of New York-based Marketfield Asset Management, which oversees $3.5 billion, said in a phone interview. "We haven't seen the beginning of that yet. The transition from tepid enthusiasm to hyper enthusiasm is going to be worth few hundred points in the S&P."

2000 Cherokee Sport - OG XJPosted in Features on December 2, 2013
Sometimes we here at Jp take building Jeeps for granted. We've modified so many project vehicles over the years that sometimes it is hard to remember what it was like to dive into our first project. Eric Zappe bought his '00 Jeep Cherokee new off the showroom floor and built it part-by-part over the years from a combination of readily available products and custom fabrication. He is the guy who wrote the book on how to build Cherokees—literally. Eric's High-Performance Jeep Cherokee XJ Builder's Guide 1984-2001 has 144 pages of information on how to turn a stock XJ into a capable wheeler worthy of the Jeep name. But instead of being one of those Internet armchair quarterbacks who spout off "advice" without ever turning a wrench, Eric has built his own Cherokee through trial and error in order to pass his knowledge along to others.
Eric knew that he was going to subject his Cherokee to extreme conditions, so the unitbody was reinforced with TnT Customs frame stiffeners, TMR front frame plates, a TnT Customs belly pan, and a six-point interior cage. Once the platform was beefed, Eric turned to the suspension. The front uses Rubicon Express 5.5-inch coils and Rubicon Express monotube shocks with JKS bar-pin eliminators. Adding this much lift to the front of a Cherokee can create issues if used with the stock control arms, but Eric remedied that with TnT Customs Y-Link long-arm kit and a Rubicon Express HD adjustable track bar. The leaf springs over the axle of the Cherokee made the rear relatively easy to upgrade, and all that was needed was a set of Rubicon Express 4.5-inch leaf springs, TeraFlex shackles, and Old Man Emu shocks.
The drivetrain on this Jeep is fairly vanilla, but not that cheapo vanilla that your mom used to bring home in 2.5 gallon buckets. It's more like Häagen-Dazs, made from premium ingredients. The 4.0L engine was left untouched internally, but uses a 60mm throttle body from Jeepers and Creepers and a 2.5-inch exhaust with a Magnaflow muffler for improved breathing. Eric built a custom intake that mounts the Airaid cone filter inside the cowl to allow for deep water crossings without a plastic snorkel to get ripped off the A-pillar. An AW4 automatic with a Hayden tranny cooler and an NP231 fitted with a Rubicon Express slip-yoke eliminator and double cardan driveshaft route power to the axles.
The front axle is a high-pinion Dana 30 from a '98 XJ. It's said Jeep switched production to low-pinion Dana 30s in 2000 to match the TJ Wrangler and streamline production. We say it knew the Cherokee was dead, and when the supply of high-pinion Dana 30s dried up, it just started pilfering from the TJ line to finish the last models that were to be produced. The tubes and control arm mounts have been reinforced and the axle has been upgraded with 4.56 gears, an ARB Air Locker, and Warn chromoly axleshafts with manual hubs. This ensures that the axle will live a long life, even when capped by 35-inch Goodyear MT/R tires. Steering the axle is a stock Saginaw box that is aided by a Currie Currectlync tie rod and drag link, GoFerIt tie rod flip, C-Rock steering box frame plate, and Rusty's Off Road steering box brace.
The rear axle is also a factory Jeep piece in the form of a Chrysler 8.25. Much stronger than the Dana 35 sometimes found in the back of Cherokees, Eric only needed a few aftermarket components to ensure reliability from his rear axle. These include 4.56 Yukon gears and an ARB Air Locker to match the front axle, along with Yukon chromoly axle shafts and a TeraFlex rear disc brake conversion.
Body and Interior
Unlike most jungle gyms, the exocage isn't the first thing that you notice about Eric's Cherokee, and that is a good thing. Instead of adding tube outside of the factory front fenders and hooks and ladders around the cab, he ditched the front fenders and skinned tube fenders for added strength without added width or Mad Max looks. The 1.5-inch, 0.120-wall DOM tube then ties into a roof halo that is tied in directly to the six-point interior rollcage. Plates and silicone sealer were used to keep the roof leak-free after the cage was added. If you want to wheel with the doors off your Cherokee and plan to have them fit back on afterwards, consider doing something similar.
Other protection comes from the Tomken gas tank skidplate, BPI front bumper equipped with a Warn 9.0Rc winch and KC SlimLites, and the rare AEV rear bumper and tire carrier. Eric trimmed the rockers and tied 2 x 6-inch box tubing into the unitbody for greater strength and ground clearance. Inside the Jeep was coated with Herculiner and a Viair 400C air compressor sits in the back to power the lockers and fill tires.
Good, Bad, and What It's For
The photos were shot with Eric's custom tube doors on his Cherokee, but the factory doors have been trimmed to work with the boat sides and allow for comfortable wheeling all year round. Like any Cherokee, glass and sheetmetal are the biggest things working against Eric's XJ, and we are amazed that it is still as straight as it is given the places he has wedged the Jeep over the years. Never one to leave his vehicle alone for too long, Eric plans to add coil springs to the rear suspension and upgrade the T-case in the future.

Why I Wrote This Feature
I am not a fan of exocages, but the tube work and flat tan paint on Eric's XJ were love at first sight for me. I appreciate that he upgraded the stock running gear instead of tossing it for a GM Gen III engine and 1-ton axles. And the fact that he is a heck of a nice guy and willing to share his experiences and hard work with other Jeepers sealed the deal.
