There are many types of wedding photography styles and but I am going to look at the main three. I am often asked which style of photography I provide when I shoot a wedding and depending on the situation and clients wishes, I try to incorporate a combination of these styles.
If you look back at wedding albums from 20 years ago or older, you will find nearly all the shots are set up by the photographer. These photographs do tend to look quite similar, but there's nothing wrong with that and they provide actual record of the wedding day.
This style of photography is very popular at the moment, the photographer will mingle with the guests and carry out no posed or set up shots. It's a very natural type of photography capturing moments as they happen.
This style is also becoming very popular and tries to emulate the style seen in bridal magazines. They will be staged shots using natural or artificial lighting. The focus is predominately on the bride and groom.

quote:Who is attacking Gregg? By the way, he is 66 and will be 67 in December; he is not 70. Gregg is the one who earlier in the year stated that the band would go on. He is not been up to the task with the Allman Brothers Band for all of 2014 and for good parts of other recent years. He does not see the decline in his ability. That's fine, but don't expect people (especially people forking over large sums of $$$) to ignore it.
quote:Guess I have to agree with redlegs here. So whats the purpose of the post. To point out the obvious one more time. To detract from the end. Not disputing your comments just curious about the need to present them at this time. Sometimes it feels like this website is getting as tired as the band's namesake.
quote:Let me start out by saying I am a huge Allman Brothers fan!I have been to tons of shows over the years and will be at the Saturday and Tuesday finale after seeing the Tuesday and Wednesday shows.That out of the way let me state that Gregg is no longer up to the task any longer and I think Warren and Derek knew it when they decided to walk away.Gregg has his moments and his voice really is the signature sound of the band but at this point he is an albatross around the band.His voice was to my ears weak during the 2 shows I saw,He constantly missed cues and came in at the wrong time or not at all and he forgets lyrics constantly.Yes,he has been doing it for some time but it definitely detracts from the show and is going to get worse as time goes on.He seems better able to function in his own band where the pace is slowed down but in the fast paced numbers with the Allman Brothers he just seems to get lost or be unable to keep up.This is not an attack on Gregg as he is one of the all time great rock singers and the band itself can still play at an outer worldly level but one has to be honest when watching the current band.I do hope Gregg can rise to the occasion for the last few shows and the band can go out in a blaze of glory as they deserve to!
quote:Caught two slight flubs Wed night - lyric on first part of Desdemona and Statesboro. Other than that thought Gregg was very good. Especially strong on Come & Go Blues, BHW and shorter blues like Trouble and Don't Keep. Wed night was great show. Don't compare Gregg to the Almighty (for sure) compare him to what is out there. Much, much, much rather listen to anything Gregg Allman sings than lads like J Bell or C Robinson.
quote:.we have seen Gregg fantastic on some songs on some shows on some nights, therefore, he IS able to do it. If the shows you saw were sub-par, okay, but it does not mean he CANNOT do it, he just might not have delivered on those nights.
quote:I'll be 63 in December, 4 years younger than Gregg. First saw them 2/11/1970 late show at FE and I was hooked - I was 18, Gregg was 22. I lived a fairly clean and healthy life, and I don't even have the energy to go to the 10/27 show - gave my ticket to a friend. How Gregg keeps going, I don't know. My last show was 5th row Center on 3/5/13, and Gregg looked and sounded amazing. I didn't get home until 4am, and it seriously took me a week to recover and for my ears to stop ringing. So, from my perspective, I will give Gregg a lot of credit for staying out on the road. I don't ever think he did it for the money. I think it's all he knows. I saw him play a dump bar in Queens back in '85 or '86, during those sad, dark non-ABB years, on a cold, awful weekday night. The owner didn't let him go on until after 1am, and there were maybe 30 people there. Gregg gave it all he had, like he was playing the biggest gig of his life. I still don't know how he survived losing Duane, but he did. So, I'll give Gregg Allman a big thanks for literally a lifetime of the best music I've ever heard.

he can post WHATEVER HE WANTS. i don't understand the holier then tho people on this board that think you cant post anything ABOUT THE SHOW that's not rose colored. that's what we are here for! if he thought that Gregg didn't sound good, then let him talk about it, i for one WANT to hear what people think. i was at both shows too, and i agree with him. am i still enjoying the shows? yes i am. but in no way shape or form does this feel like the last 6 shows, feels like the same show they have been playing for 5 years, AND ITS OK TO SAY IT.
quote:I really do believe that there has been a subtle overall decline on this site,
quote:Friday night was epic, no other words to describe it. Maybe they saw you're post and gave you the Farmer two bird salute
quote:sounds like the shows so far at the Beacon have been less than stellar..sorry to hear that.
However,I found their 2nd night at Peachfest to be one of the best I've ever seen...& I've seen them in multiple venues over the years & theify were all great that night.I recommend buying that cd of night 2.
quote:Listening to some it would sound like ABB were on its last legs & can hardly pull it together to finish a set...& others think it to be a phenomenal show! I think I have a bit of an idea why there can be quite differing views on the same Allman Brothers show;
One thing is I think there can be very differing 'expectations' of these individuals onstage or the band as a whole.(I don't think the volume of shows seen by the judge plays a part)
or; the atitude or general tone level of the person viewing the show may vary greatly,whether they're generally pessimistic or optimistic about things.or;the amount of $ the person payed for the show can vary widely in that some 'will not' pay over cost for a show while others are willing to expend huge amounts of cash to see a band.Those that overpayed can feel ripped off if its not a 'miraculous' show.(I sat next to a guy who was cursing up a storm at an Eagles show recently at MSG,he felt ripped off as the seats were too close to the glass & was ready to pund heads in.I was fine with things..but I payed a discounted $130 for a last minute ticket while he payed an unbelievable $800 for an early one.I could understand why he was pissed & getting drunk) or some people are willing to allow that musicians individually can have an off-night & simply refocus their attention to another bandmember when one is off, realizing its inevitable that 1 will surely be off once in awhile & it doesn't affect their overall opinion.There are probably other factors too.
This probably explains a bit of why sum love a show & some hate it...nones really wrong on it but some of the above can be considered.
I think what some are saying though,right or wrong for thinking it, is that 'Look,its over soon,can't we just make the best of whats left & keep it upbeat,unless they deliberately did something to hurt the fans".
Its been a good run-45 years,& I say Thanks.
quote:...wonder if the naysayers still feel the same way..or if they want to reword some opinions in light of the last shows,comments or broadcast
maybe they already have...

It's been many years since Cameron University hosted a fall homecoming. But that will change – in a special way – this weekend when the university honors the gridiron heroes responsible for bringing national championships to Lawton. An "Aggie Football Reunion" will take place Friday and Saturday, Oct. 27-28, at sites on the Cameron campus and in Lawton. Despite the fact that CU no longer has a football team, the players, cheerleaders, coaches and others involved in the program have not been forgotten. This weekend's reunion gives Cameron a chance to honor those athletes for the fame their success brought to the university. The event is open to former players and their spouses, coaches, cheerleaders, band members and fans. Reservations are required to attend the Aggie Football Reunion. For more information, contact 580-581-2291.
Since 2017 marks the 30th anniversary of Cameron's final football national title – the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics Division I National Championship in 1987 – the focus will be on the team coached by Brian Naber that went 11-2 and defeated Carson-Newman 30-2 in Cameron Stadium.
Cameron's legendary football program goes much deeper than the 1987 NAIA national title. During its junior college years, when the university was known as Cameron State Agricultural College, the Aggies captured four National Junior College Athletic Association crowns – 1931, 1941, 1960 and 1961 – and were runners up in 1947 and 1964.Along the way, they won five bowl games, including the Eastern Bowl in 1939, the Papoose Bowl in 1946, the Junior Rose Bowl in 1961 and two Boot Hill Bowls (1970 and 1980).
This weekend's reunion will honor all players who contributed to Cameron's gridiron success over the decades, including the undefeated 1961 Junior Rose Bowl team that topped Bakersfield College 28-20 in Pasadena, Calif., under head coach Leroy Montgomery. It marked the first junior college national title for an Oklahoma football team.
The football reunion begins at 8 p.m. Friday with a social event in the Apache Casino Hotel's 360 Restaurant. It continues Saturday with breakfast and registration at 8 a.m. in the McMahon Centennial Complex on the CU campus, followed by a question-and-answer session at 8:30 a.m., a historical presentation on Aggie football at 9:30 a.m. and a celebration of the 1987 NAIA champions at 10:45 a.m., followed by lunch and photos.
Cameron's association with football extends back to its days as a high school. It was in 1912 – a scant four years after its founding – that the Cameron State School of Agriculture formed its first team, coached by school president R.K. Robertson. During those years, both Lawton High School and Fort Sill were frequent opponents, as were other high schools in the region.
Cameron expanded its play when it transitioned to a junior college in the late 1920s and joined the Oklahoma Junior College Conference. Over a span of 17 years, the Aggies won 11 conference titles while losing only 25 games, creating excitement among students and community supporters – and a tradition of excellence that continued for decades. When Roosevelt Field – known to Lawton fans today as Ron Stephens Stadium – was built in the mid-1930s, it became home field for Aggie football until a stadium was built on campus.
Cameron transitioned to four-year university status in 1966, and that set the stage for its opportunity to win the NAIA title. In 1986, the Aggies were regularly listed in Top 20 polls, amassing 11 wins and finishing the season as the national runners-up to Carson-Newman.CU got its revenge the next year when it won the national title on its home field, easily beating Carson-Newman on a chilling December afternoon.
Faced with rising operational costs, declining attendance tied to competition from Oklahoma's two big-name football programs, cuts in state funding, the transition from the NAIA to the NCAA's Division II, and a struggle to meet federal Title IX compliance, CU was forced to disband its storied football program at the conclusion of the 1992 season.

Talbot, Rangers Shut Out Hurricanes as Winning Streak Continues
(Photo: @NYRangers)
Cam Talbot has three wins this season.
Not the most impressive stat, sure. So let's clarify: Cam Talbot has three shutouts this season.
That's as many shutouts as Jonathan Quick and Pekka Rinne, and more than Carey Price, Antti Niemi, and Tuukka Rask, to name a few. In fact, only Marc-Andre Fleury (6) and teammate Henrik Lundqvist (5) currently have more shutouts than Talbot does.
Not bad for a goaltender who's only started seven games (3-3-1) so far this year.
As the backup goalie for Lundqvist, Talbot does not see as much playing time as he probably deserves. But despite the limited ice time, he has displayed a level of comfort and skill in the net that the rest of the New York Rangers can't help but notice.
"[Talbot] has been great for us, last year and this year, and he's been really solid for us," said Dan Girardi, who played in his 600th career game on Sunday. "Our goaltending tandem is pretty solid right now."
Fortunately for the Rangers, this goaltending tandem will remain solid for at least another season. Talbot, who currently has a .928 SV% and a 2.02 GAA, signed a one-year, $1.45 million extension with the Rangers on Friday. He said that he is "extremely excited" to be staying in New York through the 2015-16 season and to continue working with goaltending coach Benoit Allaire, as well as with Lundqvist.
Though Talbot would have become an unrestricted free agent in the offseason, the Rangers organization reportedly had hoped to come to a multi-year agreement with him before then. However, at 27 years old, Talbot wants to keep his options open for future seasons. In his second season as Lundqvist's backup, he has proven that he has the talent to be a number one, starting goaltender at this level; signing a multi-season contract at this stage could narrow this window of opportunity for him.
"He did want the one-year security," said his agent, George Bazos. "Part of the issue was, at times the Rangers wanted more years. From our standpoint and from his standpoint, he does want to become a number one goalie, and that's why we didn't want to tie up more than one year."
Talbot earned his third shutout of the season on Sunday night, making 18 saves as the Rangers (17-10-4) defeated the Carolina Hurricanes (9-20-4), 1-0, in the second half of a home-and-home set. Ryan McDonagh put in the only goal of the game four minutes into the first period, assisted by Derek Stepan and Mats Zuccarello. But as the Rangers continued to dominate in terms of shots and offensive possession, the rest of the game proved to be a stalemate. They held onto their single-goal lead over three periods of play and limited the Hurricanes' scoring chances with strong defensive play and hustle. And when the Hurricanes did manage to get a shot off, Talbot was there to stop it.
"I knew that [Carolina was] one of the hardest working teams in the league and they fight to get to those dirty areas, so I knew that if I left any rebounds laying around that they were going to be there to poke them in," said Talbot, who attributed the shutout to the entire team's defensive effort. "I just tried to stay positionally sound and tried to control the rebounds whenever I could, and whenever I left one there, the guys were there to clear them out for me."
"Every shot that came in, [Talbot] swallowed, and for a defenseman that's huge. He swallows those and there's no rebounds laying around, and that makes our job a lot easier. He did that all night," said Marc Staal.
This win is the sixth in a row for the Rangers, their longest winning streak since November 2011. With 38 points on the season, they now sit in third place–and in playoff position–within the Metropolitan Division. The Washington Capitals, who they will face on Tuesday, are right behind them in the division standings. These will be a huge two points for whoever comes out on top.
And as the Rangers look to extend their winning streak and retain their playoff spot, strong goaltending will undoubtedly remain a crucial part of their game.
"We're no different than any team in the NHL. You can't win if you don't get goaltending," said head coach Alain Vigneault. "Hank's playing the way we know he can, and when we use Cam, he's giving us some real good performances."

Lineman killed in work accident in Coffee County
The Coffee County sheriff confirmed senior lineman Ray Dean Batey was working to repair a security light on Norton Branch Road when his bucket truck caught fire around 3:30 p.m.
A Duck River Electric Membership Corporation lineman was killed in a work-related accident on Monday.
The Coffee County sheriff confirmed senior lineman Ray Dean Batey was working to repair a security light on Norton Branch Road when his bucket truck caught fire around 3:30 p.m.
According to DREMC, Batey died from his injuries after jumping from the bucket truck when it caught fire.
Batey had just started working on a security light when flames ignited at the end of the boom connected to the bucket truck.
Witnesses said Batey tried lowering the bucket but could not and was forced to jump 12 to 15 feet. He landed on his side.
DREMC officials said Batey was conscious and responsive when first responders took him to Unity Medical Center. His died before he was able to be airlifted.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
DREMC President and CEO Michael Watson said Batey was an experienced lineman and a valuable member of the team.
"Accidents such as this are a terrible experience, not only for Dean's family and friends, but also for his fellow employees," Watson said. "Electric linemen have a unique bond. Their jobs are extremely dangerous, and they rely heavily on their own skills and training to keep them safe every day."
Batey, 58, started working as a lineman for DREMC in May 1999. Prior to this, he spent 21 years working as a foreman at Osborne Electric.
"At this sad time, we appreciate your thoughts and prayers for Dean's family as well as our cooperative family as we mourn the loss of one of our own," Watson said.
Several industry partners are helping to investigate the fatal accident, including OSHA.

text: So…I'm pretty sure that the prom scene in QaF is just about one of the most romantic scenes ever. I actually went to re-watch it looking for some inspiration for a certain something. But then, I ended up re-watching parts of that episode as well as well as the scene when Michael finds Brian scarfing and yells at him and says how Brian still hasn't lost his "superpowers" and will always be young, etc. And I must note that Brian seems to accept this and after THIS he makes his decision to go to Justin's prom. So I realized that…I really am more a Brian/Michael than a Brian/Justin shipper at heart, no matter how much I would like to be a BJ shipper primarily, seeing as how that's both canon and a fandom favorite. I'm not sure what the problem is, since I most certainly think B/J is romantic enough and I like it surely and I WAS rooting for them when I was watching the show first time around…. I think it's because I associate myself with Michael a lot more. At least the Michael that was before Ben came into the picture (gah). I guess I like the best-friends-turned-lovers thing. Maybe because I can relate to that better? I'm also not Justin's biggest fan. I don't hate him or anything like that but I can't relate to him very much and the fact that he is so loved by fandom doesn't seem to help. I also feel like Brian and Michael have this…is not simple chemistry, than at least this…bond. See, I guess it's because I view the best relationship as being close friends + an element of attraction. Justin and Brian have all the attraction in the world, perhaps, but I don't see the friendship. Even as their relationship develops…that connection is not there the way Michael and Brian's is. Ben kinda fucks with Michael's mind and sorta changes him in bad ways, I think, but even then…I think I would be so much more a B/J shipper is just the Michael element wasn't there or if it wasn't there in SUCH A WAY. Again, I relate to Michael. We don't have the same personality or anything but I still relate to him, and especially his relationship with Brian. Maybe that's the problem or should I rather say reason? Gah…IDEK.

Sports are a huge time commitment, especially when in high school. From getting home late, to being exhausted from practice, schoolwork can be a real struggle. With that said, it also teaches you invaluable time management skills that simply can not be learned in another environment. So my question is: Does sports have any effect on academic performance?
Null Hypothesis: Sports has no effect on academic performance.
Alternative Hypothesis: Sports does have an effect on academic performance.
In many high schools, athletic prowess trumps academic prowess big time. When budget cuts come around, football and soccer are not being cut, it is activities like Math Team and Quiz Bowl that see the effects. Does this mean that academic achievements and goals are not being accomplished? In a study of Ohio high schools, it was found that "high schools that devote more energy to athletic success also tend to produce more academic success" (EducationNext). The study found that a 10 percent increase in winning percentage links to a .25 percentage point increase in the number of students at or above academic proficiency.
The sport that had the largest effect was football, which is not surprising because it is often the most popular sport in high school. It is hard to make a causal claim that athletics is linked to achievement based on this data, but the data is clearly consistent with such a conclusion. I see the threat of reverse causation as a real threat in such an area as well. While not considered, having smarter students on the athletic teams may cause the team to perform better. Having a smart, above average player is more beneficial than having a bonehead, outstanding player in my cases.
While the previous study looked at the effect on the student body of a school as a whole, there are definitely benefits to playing sports on the individual level as well. In a study led by Liberty University, the GPA of athletes was examined during and after a sporting season. The study found a significant difference in the GPA scores during and after sports seasons. It specifically found that GPA decreases following a sports season, which supports the theory that participating in sports positively affects GPA. The change in GPA during and after the sports season was extremely significant in males, while not nearly as significant in females. This could be attributed to the overall hypothesis that females are better students, but it can not be concluded for sure. Based on this information, overall there is clearly a correlation between participating in sports and academic achievement. Again, it is hard to determine that there is a causal relationship, but the evidence again supports such a stance.
A study from the University of Kansas analyzed the academic performance of student-athletes and students. The study showed "athletes had higher percentages of days of school attended, graduation rates, and Kansas assessment scores and lower dropout rates than nonathletes"
(KU). Angela Lumpkin, who analyzed the data, made a great point when she stated, "In general, an athlete is not smarter than a nonathlete" (KU). I found this quote very accurate and interesting. Playing sports does not mean an individual is smarter than a nonathlete. The studies and their results simply show that athletes achieve better. There is no causation between innate knowledge and playing sports, but I do believe there is causation between work ethic and better grades. I think that athletes have a work ethic which translates from the sports into the classroom because they know they need to perform in the classroom to be able to participate in the extracurricular activities.
Based on the studies I have found, I would have to reject the null hypothesis. There clearly is a correlation present when examining athletes and academic performance. I would argue that there is causation as well. I do not believe this means that athletes are smarter than nonathletes. I see this as a result of work ethic. Athletes work hard because they know they need to perform well in school to even get the chance to perform well on the field, court, track, etc.

MBNA could owe you thousands of pounds due to mis-sold PPI. With our no win, no fee PPI claims, we can guide you through the process and make it stress-free.
MBNA isn't a bank or credit card provider you'll see on the British High Street. Until December 2016, MBNA was owned by an American credit card provider, under the umbrella of the Bank of America. However, Lloyds Banking Group bought MBNA for nearly £2 billion and all British accounts were transferred to Lloyds.
With 7 million customers in the UK, MBNA was involved in the PPI mis-selling scandal. So far, the banks have collectively paid out over £27 billion for PPI claims. Some customers were sold PPI without enough information about the insurance or felt obliged to buy it. MBNA hasn't paid out as much as some of the banks. However, many customers are still owed money.
Operating on a no win, no fee basis, Canary Claims can help you make a claim against MBNA to receive any money you are rightfully owed. Read through all of our information below to find out about how much you could be owed from MBNA and how to make a hassle-free claim.
Is it Still Possible to Make a PPI Claim Against MBNA?
Despite the takeover from Lloyds, it is still possible to make a claim against MBNA. The bank has taken responsibility for the PPI claims from MBNA.
During the buying process, Lloyds bank was seeking compensation from Bank of America for the payouts that it would have to offer MBNA customers after the takeover.
How Much Money Am I Owed from an MBNA PPI Claim?
It's always difficult to know exactly how much money you could be entitled to from a PPI Claim. However, one of the biggest success stories came from an MBNA PPI claim. One customer received payments of £65,000. This was from two credit cards with the bank. The customer wasn't even eligible to use the PPI insurance she had bought, as she was self-employed and the insurance covers loss from a job.
Some industry experts believe that due to being an American company, MBNA pays out less than high street banks. If you are unhappy with a payout from MBNA and feel that more money is deserved, it is possible to take the case to the financial ombudsman. Due to a backlog of PPI complaints, the ombudsman can take up to two years to review a case.
This is one of the many reasons that the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has set a PPI deadline. PPI claims now need to be made by August 2019. The FCA is hoping that the deadline will motivate people to start claiming if they have been putting it off.
How Can I Make an MBNA PPI Claim?
As one of the best PPI claims companies, Canary Claims can help you make a PPI claim against MBNA. When you discuss your case and details with our dedicated team, we will be able to make a claim on your behalf.
All you need to make a claim is your paperwork from when you had an account. However, if you no longer have the paperwork, this isn't necessarily a problem. With sufficient details such as name and contact details of when you had an account with MBNA, we can find out the information you need and make a claim.
Start your MBNA PPI claim now with Canary Claims. Offering a no win, no fee policy, Canary Claims offer an incredibly low rate of 15% + VAT. Why wait? Call us today on 0800 634 8668.

Tom Hiddleston Meets Taylor Swift's Parents After Romantic Week In Nashville
Tom Hiddleston was put to the truest relationship test this week — because he reportedly met Taylor Swift's parents while spending time with his new gal in Nashville! The question now is…did the actor pass the test?
Wow, things really are moving fast between Taylor Swift, 26, and Tom Hiddleston, 35. Just two weeks after the couple went public with their romance, she's already introduced him to her parents — and it all went down amid their romantic week in Nashville, according to a new report.
Taylor went to lunch and a fan event with her mom, Andrea, and dad, Scott, on June 23, then had lunch with them, while Tom stayed back and did his own thing. However, after the family bonding day, the 26-year-old went home with her parents, which is when she introduced them to her new beau, according to E! News.
But when they weren't hanging out with Andrea and Scott, Taylor and Tom were out and about doing their own thing all over the city. First, they attended Selena Gomez's concert with Tay's friends on June 21, where they were caught flaunting PDA and their amazing dance moves on camera. After the show, they held hands while heading to their car, and looked totally adorable together!
See More Pics Of Taylor & Tom HERE
They followed the fun night out with an intimate date night at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse on June 22. "They both looked really happy," an insider told HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY. "Taylor had a huge smile on her face and was totally beaming. They sat in a private section, which was really romantic."
And after their day with her parents, the lovebirds went out again, this time joined by another couple for an double date at Adele's. They couldn't keep their hands off each other during dinner, and their affection for one another was beyond evident. Plus, considering this happened after the meeting with Scott and Andrea…that must mean it went well, right?!
HollywoodLifers, do you think Tom and Taylor are a good couple? Are you shocked he met her parents so soon?

Airline Weekly - May 11, 2015
A Two-Horse Race Again: Denver's seemingly sudden air service slowdown masks some key underlying strengths
Cover Story
A Two-Horse Race Again: Denver's seemingly sudden air service slowdown masks some key underlying strengths
Back in 2009, an awful year for U.S. airlines and airports, every major airport lost airline seats. But one—Denver, with less than a 1% decline—lost less service than any other.
Fast forward to the present, 2015, a great year for U.S. airlines and airports. This year, every major airport except one will have more seats than last year. That one exception? Denver. The No. 6 U.S. airport overall (by scheduled seats, according to an Airline Weekly analysis of Diio Mi data) is due to see a decline of nearly 1%. The next airport shrinking at all by that measure is the much smaller and more clearly beleaguered No. 24 Washington Dulles.
What's suddenly wrong with Denver? Or is anything, in fact, wrong with Denver?
Relative to its own recent history, the numbers don't lie: Denver is no longer a growth superstar. But by any other standard, the fact remains that in absolute terms, this airport serving a metropolitan area of fewer than three million people, not located at the crossroads of most major global traffic flows, somehow manages to rank as not only among the busiest U.S. airports but also among the busier in the world (No. 21 this year by scheduled seats, sandwiched between Amsterdam and Seoul Incheon).
That smallish metro area population ranks Denver behind, say, St. Louis, which long ago lost its American Airlines hub (a void Southwest partly backfilled). Denver, on the other hand, has been—until recently—not only an airline hub, but essentially a hub to not one, not two but three airlines. Alas, it's "until recently" that explains this year's decline.
Denver has gone through three broad phases during the past decade. In 2005, it was a two-horse race between United and Frontier, then a well-liked, upmarket hometown low-cost carrier. Frontier, like United, carried a lot of connecting traffic through Denver, although one of the many things making Denver unique among hubs serving relatively small metro areas is that a surprising percentage of passengers then as now—nearly 60%—actually begin or end their journeys in Denver. At Atlanta, for perspective, that's about the percentage who connect; Charlotte, with Atlanta's geography but Denver's population size, has an even greater percentage of connecting traffic.
No hub, by definition, would exist without an enticing array of connecting itineraries. But airlines like hubs that have lots of passengers who don't connect, because those passengers are cheaper to transport and actually pay premiums for convenient nonstop flights. What Denver perhaps lacked geographically, in terms of the most important global traffic flows key to airline fortunes, it more than made up for... (449 of 1,794 words)
Also Inside this Issue:
There are airlines that make a lot of money. There are airlines that lose a lot of money. And there is Lufthansa, which grinds on with margins that neither embarrass nor excite. During the opening three months of 2015, the German giant held off-peak losses to manageable levels, such that it could affirm its forecast of earning a decent profit this year—but only with lots of help from Swiss, Lufthansa Technik and Lufthansa Cargo. The core Lufthansa-branded airline, more worryingly, is cracking under pressure from multiple economic and competitive forces.
One of those corrosive forces is Emirates, which faces some headwinds of its own, including significant revenue deterioration and the threat of political barriers to its expansion. But the Gulf carrier nevertheless enjoyed a good winter half thanks to enormous fuel savings.
In the Americas, two perennial success stories—WestJet and Copa—both produced way-above industry average margins as usual. For WestJet, despite some revenue pressure, times overall have never been better. For Copa, on the other hand, revenue pressures have never been worse. In the ASEAN region, meanwhile, Philippine Airlines and Tigerair showed further signs of a more stable regional supply and demand balance.
On Friday, the CEOs of American, Delta and United will again plead their case against Gulf carriers, this time at the National Press Club in Washington. Also this week: a BofA/Merrill Lynch conference in Boston, where the Big Three can further spread their word. Qatar Airways, undeterred, kept the pressure on with three new U.S. routes starting next year: L.A., Boston and Atlanta.

The first build of the DemonNet DAQ Client App for iPhone is now available for beta-testing:
|The first beta build to be tested is actually 1.4
|Apple approved the DemonNet DAQ Client for distribution to either beta testers (or even the App Store)
|Use the TestFlight app to install the app after you receive an invitation to be a beta tester
|Version 1 (1.4) is the latest test build, and can be installed with the TestFlight app
For beta-testers…
If you received an invitation and have successfully installed the app, launch it to verify that it runs; then, leave it running for approximately one hour. After launching the app, place your phone down and do not move it. The app will not record data while the phone is in motion. If you accidentally move or bump the phone, the app will stop collecting data until the phone is motionless again. This ensures data integrity by reducing bias error.
The app is self-operating, requiring no user interaction or monitoring. It works like this:
- after launch, the phone verifies whether it is in motion;
- when the phone is motionless, the video camera will display sample frames in the upper-right window;
|The video (sample frames) window will not display until the phone is motionless;
- approximately one second after the video starts. a bias frame is captured and displayed in an adjacent window;
|The bias frame is displayed between the video (sample frames) window and the user-location map
- metrics data is calculated as both the sample frames and the bias frame are compared, which is temporarily stored on your phone (the data is displayed in the table and by the graph at 30 records per second);
- after collecting 400 records, the records are uploaded to a centralized database while being deleted from your phone; then, the process is repeated until interrupted;
- this process should continue until explicitly stopped by pressing the Hone button twice, and swiping the app window upwards to exit the app;
- if the phone is moved at any time while the app is running, the video (sample frames) window and the bias frame window will disappear, and data will not be collected until the phone is motionless again.
|If the phone is moved, data collection will stop until the phone is motionless again

Quick Reference
(d. c.535)
has been patron of Mullion, on the Lizard peninsula, and of St Mellyan (Cornwall) since the early Middle Ages. He succeeded Amand as bishop of Rennes and was an adviser of Clovis. His cult spread very rapidly in Brittany. One of his letters survives, requiring Breton priests to renounce the abuse of 'wandering from cabin to cabin, celebrating Mass on portable altars, accompanied by women who administered the chalice to the faithful'. The abbey of St Melaine at Rennes was built round his tomb, described by Gregory of Tours. His fame probably caused him to supplant the primitive patron of these two parishes who had a similar name, perhaps that of the Breton Mollien, a Celtic missionary monk. Feast: 6 November.
G. H. Doble, The Saints of Cornwall, ii (1962), 109–19.

Blue Letter Bible offers several daily devotional readings in order to help you refocus on Christ and the Gospel of His peace and righteousness.
Recognizing the value of consistent reflection upon the Word of God in order to refocus one's mind and heart upon Christ and His Gospel of peace, we provide several reading plans designed to cover the entire Bible in a year.
Not many should become teachers, my brothers,[fn] because you know that we will receive a stricter judgment.
For we all stumble in many ways. If anyone does not stumble in what he says, he is mature, able also to control the whole body.
Now if we put bits into the mouths of horses so that they obey us, we direct their whole bodies.
And consider ships: Though very large and driven by fierce winds, they are guided by a very small rudder wherever the will of the pilot directs.
So too, though the tongue is a small part of the body, it boasts great things. Consider how a small fire sets ablaze a large forest.
And the tongue is a fire. The tongue, a world of unrighteousness, is placed[fn] among our members. It stains the whole body, sets the course of life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell.
Every kind of animal, bird, reptile, and fish is tamed and has been tamed by humankind,
but no one can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.
With the tongue we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse people who are made in God's likeness.
Blessing and cursing come out of the same mouth. My brothers and sisters, these things should not be this way.
Does a spring pour out sweet and bitter water from the same opening?
Can a fig tree produce olives, my brothers and sisters, or a grapevine produce figs? Neither can a saltwater spring yield fresh water.
Who among you is wise and understanding? By his good conduct he should show that his works are done in the gentleness that comes from wisdom.
But if you have bitter envy and selfish ambition in your heart, don't boast and deny the truth.
Such wisdom does not come down from above but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic.
For where there is envy and selfish ambition, there is disorder and every evil practice.
But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peace-loving, gentle, compliant, full of mercy and good fruits, unwavering, without pretense.
And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who cultivate peace.

THOMAS FINN – February 11, 2014 11:14 AM
If you're not yet fully familiar with the concept of Direct Primary Care (DPC), don't worry about it. It's coming soon to a theater near you.
DPC is an umbrella term used to describe primary health care delivery models that are based on direct financial relationships between patients and their docs. As the name indicates, DPC business models are limited to primary care. But what distinguishes them is that they trade off insurance-based coverage and its high cost of administration for a dirt simple subscription-based payment system –a monthly retainer or membership fee paid by the patient to the primary care physician or to an aggregator that, in turn, pays the physician. Yes, if you know the term "concierge medicine," it too, is a DPC model, but concierge medicine has been positioned as a primary care solution for the wealthy, where emerging DPC models are being billed as "concierge medicine for the masses." For example, while popular DPC subscription pricing varies according to the services covered, many are as inexpensive as $55-$65 per month –like joining a gym. And while the current administration is obviously not warm to solutions that just serve the rich, Obamacare expressly provides a place for DPC models when they are paired with high deductible policies that cover hospitalizations and visits to specialists. Of course, the fact that Obamacare explicitly allows it doesn't mean that our lawmakers are conversant with what Section 1301 (a)(3) of the Affordable Care Act actually says, but (drum roll here) a growing and bi-partisan contingent in Congress are now talking about DPC in a reasonable context, suggesting that they actually "get it."
As we know, physician practices continue to be acquired by acute care providers at record pace. According to an Accenture study, the number of independent physicians dropped from 57% in 2000 to 39% in 2012. Let's face it, docs aren't jumping ship because they see a bright future going at it alone. They clearly don't. Accenture estimates that one in three remaining independent physicians –their ranks decline by 5% each year— will look to adopt a DPC model, and that the trend will only continue to grow by 100% annually over the next 3 years.
And it's not just about the physician's wallet. For consumers and employers, many believe that there is no better path to lower priced coverage than pairing a DPC model with a high deductible policy which, as said, Obamacare explicitly allows. Indeed, the stars are even aligning for the insurance companies. The Medical Loss Ratio requirements under Obamacare effectively capped their profits, forcing them to reduce their overhead just to stay even. Relative to current administration/overhead costs, DPC virtually eliminates them.

With many Bond fans resigned to the fact that actor Daniel Craig has effectively walked away from the James Bond role rumour has it that Sony who bankroll the Bond films are bombarding him with ever increasing monetary offers to stay in the role for two more films.
The celebrity and entertainment news site Radar quote a source as saying "The studio is desperate to secure the actor's services while they phase in a younger long-term successor,"
In May it was widely reported that Craig had turned down $65 million to make two new Bond films and speculation started as to who might replace the rugged English actor. Idris Elba is high on the list and if chosen would become the first black actor to play Bond. Others in the frame are Jamie Bell and sometime Taylor Swift beau Tom Hiddlestone.
It seems that Sony are not yet ready to give up on Craig with reports that $150 million is on the table to secure Craig's services. Sony have declined to confirm or otherwise the story at this point.

Snapchat Shares Your Exact Location, Sparking Safety Concerns: Here's How To Turn It Off
Some worry the new feature will make it easier for predators to track potential victims.
The widely used Snapchat just created a new feature that is causing anxiety for some parents.
"Snap Map" is the app's attempt to get people to meet their Snapchat friends in real life. It shares your current location on a map.
Some fear that this new feature could make it easier for predators to track young victims, according to KMOV. Young people make up a big portion of Snapchat's demographic. According to Hootsuite, more than 100 Million people use Snapchat, 60% of whom are under 25. 25% of its users have not graduated high school yet. Variety reports that almost a third of the 13-24-year-old Snapchat users they surveyed said they like using Snapchat specifically because their parents do not use it.
There is a way to turn off the map option. Buzzfeed reports that switching one's Snapchat to ghost mode turns off the tracker. The publication explains how to do it:"When you first open the app after updating, pinch the screen to activate maps. You may be asked at this point to allow location access. After this, you will be taken to a screen offering various visibility settings. If you want to not show up on maps, pick Ghost Mode here. If you have already enabled your location to be visible on maps you can go into Settings, My Location, and turn it off."
"I use Snapchat all the time," Youtuber Bella Santos told BuzzFeed News. "I have around 800 followers. If Ghost Mode isn't used then anyone can see where I am. As someone who has an open Snapchat, I could have randoms following my location whenever they feel like it."

You would think advertisements for safe sex would be clean-cut and direct, but then again, we're talking about sex here–nothing is clean-cut and direct.
The following ads (brought to you by Spike) go far outside the realms of normality to let you know that wearing a condom is good practice… and they let you know in the strangest ways possible.
No one enjoys purchasing condoms. It is excruciatingly embarrassing to walk up to the drug store counter with a box in your sweaty hands. You try to act nonchalantly, but at the same time you feel like everyone in the store is staring at you. Because purchasing condoms is a strange and stressful experience, it makes sense that condom advertisements would be equally as strange.
10. Safe Sex Airline
This weird Dutch commercial shows a flight attendant demonstrating the flight's safety procedures. The sexy air hostess signals the exits, and then whips out a condom as if she's about to join the mile high club. This unexpected act draws audible gasps from the passengers who are waiting to take off, not get off.
These passengers have no idea they are on board Safe Sex Airlines. The guys on the flight seem especially unimpressed by the demonstration. They just want to get to their hip hop conference in peace.
9. Become a Love Machine
Love Machine condoms, manufactured by German adult company Beate Uhse, promise to "give longer, take longer." These condoms make you last so long you can solve an entire Sudoku, join-the-dots game, or crossword puzzle while doing the wild thing. Alternatively it means that these condoms desensitize sex and make it so boring that the only way to get through it is to have a puzzle to solve. Either way, if you're a puzzle man, this may be the best sex of your life.
8. (Se)Men
If you were stalked by hundreds of fully grown men dressed up as human sperm, you'd probably think twice about having sex, or leaving the house. This scary old school condom commercial from Durex drives home the need for protection. Those se-men are plain creepy.
The Top 7 Strangest Condom Ads at Spike.

Are you overweight? If you are, are you in a diet program right now? There are people who are really overweight and they have been to many diet programs already but to no avail. Thus they end up just giving up and trying to adjust with their fate. Are you one of them? Do you think your dream of having a fit a day will now just be a dream? If that is what you think right now, be glad you are in this page as you will learn about the breakthrough in losing weight and what most overweight people like you are getting crazy about.
That is right and this is the venus factor diet. Actually, this is just some tips and workout routine. In fact, this is quite simple that following this program is just like abc. However, this is not just one of your common diet programs as this is really powerful, you will start dreaming again and be motivated again to start losing weight. Yes, you should not give up in getting what you want. With this losing weight plan, you will start realizing the reasons below why one should lose weight:
- Less likelihood of osteoarthritis. This is a degenerative disease in which in time, your joints especially in your knees will start to weaken. This is normal for almost all aged people. However, this might occur to you at an early age if you are too heavy for your joints. This is painful and will generate discomforts every time you climb up the stair or simply walk for that matter.
- You are prone to sleep apnea if you are too fat like your airways are narrowed because of the fats in that area. Sleep apnea generates snoring though this is not the danger here. It is only a strong sign that you are already suffering from this complication. The danger lies in the fact that when you have sleep apnea, you tend to stop breathing a number of times while in your sleep and there are times when they can't recover their normal breathing anymore.
- You will start enjoying your food again once you have the body you dream of. People with obesity problem can hardly enjoy their foods as there is always that guilt feeling of stuffing their bodies with something that can only augment their situation.
There are still so many reasons why you should lose weight thus check that video of venus factor diet now and start losing weight fast.

Obtaining information about the anatomical connectivity of the human brain, noninvasively, is a difficult challenge facing neuroscientists. The adult human brain contains tens of billions of neuronal cells, each with multiple cell contacts that form a complex web. Moreover, higher-order structures, termed neural tracts or fiber bundles, form a complicated 3D network within and connecting different brain regions. The distinct connectivity pattern of a given brain region determines how it processes information and functions. Being able to map these complex neural patterns in vivo is essential for understanding the fundamental basis of many developmental disorders as well as defining how the brain's structure relates to its function.
Diffusion-weighted (DW) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a unique, noninvasive technique capable of quantifying the flow of water molecules in biological tissues such as the human brain.1 The success of DW-MRI comes from its unique capability to accurately describe the geometry of the underlying tissue microstructure as it constrains diffusion. From the raw DW images, diffusion tensor imaging (DTI)2 models the 3D movement of water molecules and has proved to be extremely useful in reconstructing the principal diffusion orientation needed to obtain fiber bundles and in the study of fiber-bundle connectivity in both normal and pathological brain tissues. However, DTI is most notably limited in regions of complex fiber crossings. This becomes a significant constraint when trying to map areas of the brain with complex internal structures (see Figure 1). The limitation is an important one, since the resolution of DTI images is between 1 and 27mm3, while the physical diameter of fibers ranges between 1 and 30μm.
Overcoming the limitations of the DTI model and recovering fiber-crossing information is essential for constructing high-resolution maps of the human brain. To do so, high angular resolution diffusion imaging (HARDI) reconstruction techniques3 have been used to measure DW images along several directions, capturing multiple fiber routes within the same imaging voxel. Specifically, local q-ball reconstruction, fiber-bundle segmentation, and fiber tractography are all techniques that rely on HARDI data and together give us a more accurate picture of white-matter geometries within the human brain (see Figure 1).
Q-ball imaging (QBI)4 is a recent HARDI technique that reconstructs the angular part of the diffusion displacement probability density function of water molecules, also called the diffusion orientation distribution function (ODF). QBI is a model-independent method that estimates the diffusion ODF from a single HARDI shell in q-space. The radius of this shell is fixed depending on the applied gradient strength of the scanner and diffusion time (also known as the b-value1). The original QBI has a numerical solution,4 and more recent methods have introduced an analytical spherical harmonic reconstruction solution that is faster, more robust, and requires fewer DW measurements.5 The spherical harmonic basis is a well-adapted mathematical tool that has powerful properties for processing HARDI data on the sphere. QBI can capture single and multiple fiber-crossing information, which is an important objective in better understanding white-matter connectivity. The advantages of q-ball ODF reconstruction over DTI can be seen in the crossing regions of Figure 2.
The goal of HARDI fiber-bundle segmentation is to find coherent sets of q-ball diffusion ODFs that represent major fiber bundles. Very few methods exist to segment HARDI data due to the complexity and high dimensionality of the data sets. We developed a new, efficient segmentation method using the fast, robust, analytical QBI solution.6 The approach uses a region-based statistical surface evolution defined directly on the image of diffusion ODFs represented in spherical harmonic coefficients. The solution is based on a good distance measure defined directly on the spherical harmonics so that diffusion ODFs can be compared and integrated into a level set framework. Figure 3 shows the results for the corticospinal tract obtained from 13 subjects in the public HARDI database.7 These results show that this method is reproducible and brings a strong added value to DW-MRI segmentation.3, 8
One might also be interested in recovering information about individual tracts and generating quantitative connectivity representations of the white-matter geometries. The relation between the measured diffusion ODF and the underlying fiber distribution, the fiber ODF, is still an open question.3, 4 The diffusion ODF is a blurred version of the 'true' fiber ODF. Because of this blurring effect, the extracted maxima of the diffusion ODF are often used for fiber tractography. Alternatively, one can attempt to remove this blurring effect with spherical deconvolution methods.3,9 In our work, we have proposed an extension to streamline tractography based on the multiple maxima information of the fiber ODF so that the tracking can then propagate through crossing fiber regions.3 Moreover, a probabilistic algorithm based on the fiber ODF (fodf-PROBA) is proposed to account for branching and fanning fiber populations as well as fiber crossings.10 An advantage of probabilistic tractography is that it is more robust to noise, and it outputs a connectivity score measuring how probable it is that two voxels are connected to one another. Figure 4 show accurate results indicating complex fiber bundles with crossing, fanning, and branching configurations, with fibers in blue to the medial part and in red to the lateral part of the cerebral cortex. Most current DTI-based methods neglect these fibers, which might lead to incorrect interpretations of brain functions.
HARDI techniques, such as QBI, have the advantage of being able to accurately image fiber crossings, which traditional DTI is unable to do. These techniques make it possible to obtain increasingly accurate information about the anatomical connectivity of the human brain using segmentation and tractography algorithms. However, better characterization of crossing, kissing, fanning, and branching fiber configurations remain problematic for obtaining high-resolution maps of the human brain.10 Furthermore, validation has become an important and crucial problem that needs to be tackled as these methods are beginning to be applied to specific neuroscience applications.
Maxime Descoteaux is currently a postdoctoral fellow at NeuroSpin working on high spatial, angular, and temporal resolution diffusion MRI sequence design for structural and functional study of the diffusion process within the human brain. He obtained his PhD in computer science and HARDI processing at INRIA Sophia Antipolis, supervised by Rachid Deriche.
Rachid Deriche is a research director at INRIA Sophia Antipolis in the Odyssée Project Team. His research interests are in brain imaging as well as computer and biological vision. He has authored and coauthored more than 150 scientific papers for conferences and journals of the computer vision and medical image communities.

Designers create electronic toys out of paper
Beeline Reader
We're constantly looking for innovative ways to improve the Springwise experience, and so we're now introducing BeeLine Reader, a new technology that helps you read more quickly and efficiently. To learn more about BeeLine Reader, an award-winning startup funded by Intel Capital, see BeeLineReader.com.
This is part of a series of articles that looks at entrepreneurs hoping to get their ideas off the ground through crowdfunding. At the time of writing, each of these innovations is currently seeking funding.
French designers Marion Pinaffo and Raphaël Pluvinage have created a kit of fourteen paper toys that can be cut, folded and assembled to make electronic toys. The prints are silkscreened with reactive, conductive and thermosensitive inks that turn the paper into switches, sensors, and photoresistors. The designers aim was "to reveal what hides behind our machines' magic black boxes" by allowing users to learn the electronic principles embodied in the toys. Through assembling and using the toys, children and adults can develop a greater sense of how basic electronic devices work, and remove the mystery behind these devices. The kit,…

It depends on how much oil it used.
If it's just a little bit of oil with a lot of water, it's OK. The tiny bits of oil drops will be plant food later. If there is too much oil, like a quart oil with a quart of water, it'll give the roots a hard time.
Here is the chemistry/microbiology involved in the process. Vegetable oil needs to be decomposed into smaller substances for the plant to absorb as nutrients. The micro-organisms in the soil will do the job for you. However, in this process, they(bacteria, etc) need oxygen to live and to work. If too much oil is dumped in the soil at once, the soil micro-organisms will have a splurge of grow and choke up the plant roots by using up all the oxygen. They also produce heat in the process and it can hurt the roots, too.
The same concept is behind composing. People put coffee grounds or clipped grass or animal manure in mounds to make compost. They don't apply these directly to soil. The material needs to stay in the pile for days, sometimes weeks to let the microorganisms do their job. Then the compost would be transformed into stuffs that contains more nutrients which are available for plants.
