Are there instructions floating aroundthe internet somewhere?
I bought one used off astromart and the original owner never took it out of the box. The pier came with some bolts and things shipped inside of the hollow column.
Fred1 came over and made sure I had it on correctly, but there was a two piece ball bearing race (i think that's the term) that I just put in between the mount and the pier I think.
As hard as I tighten the original lock under the trpod hub, there is still consderable movement in azimuth I guess due to the pier not being tightened down enough?

Writers Of Whitstable is a friendly writing group, with the serious aim of helping its members become better writers.
The group usually meets on the last Monday of each month at 7pm at a quiet local bar.
Writers distribute the work they'd like to discuss a week before the group meeting, and this is read by members before we meet. This means there is good time to form critical constructive feedback on each project.
This style of group doesn't suit everyone, as it does require a little reading 'homework' before each meeting! However I feel it's a useful skill for all writers to learn to analyse other's people's writing, developing a critical eye and ability to note strengths and weaknesses can help any writer improve their craft. Everyone attending the group understands knows it's not easy sharing personal work, and we all try to be sensitive and offer positive notes alongside suggestions for improvements.
If you're interested in developing a writing project, and would like supportive people to offer encouragement along the way then the Writers Of Whitstable writing group might be for you.
I couldn't resist the WOW acronym, but of course Writers Of Whitstable is open to writers wherever they are based, if you can make it to a group you'll be welcome!
if you have any questions about Writers Of Whitstable or want to come along please email email@example.com.

Selected Series.
Kingdom Come
"The kingdom of God is at hand." This simple declaration was the crux of Jesus' message and the subject he returned to again and again. He was always talking about the kingdom! If this subject was so important to Jesus then it follows that is should occupy the same sort of priority for us today. In this series we look at the subject of the kingdom in the Gospel of Matthew, considering how Jesus' blueprints for kingdom life, might work in our 21st Century London context.
Kingdom Come: Mission - Matthew 28:16-20
Sun Jan 30 '11|
After over a dozen weeks, Andy Tilsley wraps up our series on the kingdom of God, looking at the implications of the message for Christians today. Jesus didn't call us to make converts but to make disciples. In other words, we are called to this radical lifestyle, and are expected to share the gospel and win others to this lifestyle as well. Becoming a Christian is not simply agreeing with a few facts, but giving your whole life over to radical obedience.
Audio | Video
Kingdom Come: Life - Matthew 27:57-28:15
Sun Jan 23 '11|
This sermon looks at the resurrection of Jesus, and the promise of new life and victory over death that it brings to Christians. Adrian Holloway unpacks Matthew 27:57-28:15 by examining some of the arguments for Jesus resurrection from the dead, and offers some compelling reasons why Jesus is alive today!
Audio | Video
Kingdom Come: Access - Matthew 27:27-56
Sun Jan 16 '11|
This talk looks at the crucifixion of Jesus, his resurrection, and the implications for Christians today. David Stroud continues our series on the kingdom of God, with a message about Jesus' power, grace, forgiveness and ultimate victory over sin, death and Satan.
Audio | Video
Kingdom Come: Suffering - Matthew 26:47-68
Sun Jan 9 '11|
This week, David talks about how suffering is part of the cost of bringing in the Kingdom, and how we ought to respond. Looking at the story of Gethsemane and the trial of Jesus, he considers how Jesus was able to embrace suffering even when he was betrayed, abandoned and abused.
Audio | Video
Kingdom Come: Communion - Matthew 26:17-29
Sun Dec 12 '10|
Andy Tilsley looks at the Last Supper and the powerful symbolism of Communion. It's an important examination of Jesus' work at the Cross, the hope of the Kingdom coming in all it's fullness, and how we should live as we take part in communion.
Audio | Video
Kingdom Come: Nations - Matthew 21:12-17
Sun Dec 5 '10|
This week Jesus gets angry and violent. Five days before his death, he cleanses the Jerusalem Temple. In this talk, Adrian claims that this cleansing of the Temple represents both the 'end of religion' and 'the beginning of Christianity.'
Audio | Video
Kingdom Come: Forgiveness - Matthew 18: 21-25
Sun Nov 21 '10|
David Stroud continues our series on the kingdom of God by looking at the parable of the unmerciful servant. We are called to be people who live aware of the great forgiveness of God and forgive one another freely. Sounds easier said than done! This is a talk guaranteed to challenge, and help those struggling with unforgiveness.
Audio | Video
Kingdom Come: Freedom - Matthew 15:1-20
Sun Nov 14 '10|
This week we continued our journey through the book of Matthew, looking at the subject of the Kingdom of God, and this week's theme in the series was Freedom. We looked at two facets of a problem – the hypocrisy of man-made religion in society and the reality of the original sin in our hearts. We also saw that Jesus provides us with an ultimate answer to the question that every single religion tried to find a solution to.
Audio | Video
Kingdom Come: Greatness - Matthew 18: 1-4
Sun Nov 7 '10|
Andy continues our series on the Kingdom of God at our dedication service for families in the church, by looking at the subject of 'Greatness' and what it really means to be great in the Kingdom of God. It's a counter-cultural message of grace and acceptance, and a picture of the community we're trying to build.
Audio | Video
Kingdom Come: Signs - Matthew 11: 1-24
Sun Oct 31 '10|
What are the signs that demonstrate the Kingdom? How should that shape our mission? And how can we live out truly radical lifestyles, even in the face of pressure and hostility? David Stroud answers some of these questions in the latest talk of our Kingdom Come series, as we look at Matthew 11:1-24.
Audio | Video
Kingdom Come: Value - Matthew 13:44-46
Sun Oct 24 '10|
Adrian Holloway speaks from Matthew as we continue our series on the kingdom of God, and its message for us in 21st century London life. This week we're looking at the parable of the hidden treasure and the pearl, which has some surprising applications for our lives.
Audio | Video
Kingdom Come: Justice - Matthew 5:38-48
Sun Oct 17 '10|
This week we looked at Matthew 5:38-48, and considered what the Kingdom response should be when people wrong us. Jesus taught that we should not retaliate like for like. Neither should we become a 'doormat' for people to trample over. Rather we should respond in such a way as to expose the indignity of what they are doing to us, giving them an opportunity to change.

Audio | Video
Kingdom Come: Blessing - Matthew 5:1-12
Sun Oct 3 '10|
This week Andy continued our new series 'Kingdom Come' looking at the theme of the Kingdom in the Gospel of Matthew. Jesus' message of the Kingdom was good news for people from any and every background. We also saw what happens when we receive God's Kingdom and its power in our own lives.
Audio | Video
Kingdom Come: Promise - Matthew 3:1-12
Sun Sep 26 '10|
This week we launched our new series 'Kingdom Come' looking at the theme of the Kingdom in the Gospel of Matthew. Jesus was always talking about the Kingdom, and so it follows that his message should be our message too. We saw that Jesus came to bring about the new exodus, the new return from exile, and the fulfilment of all the prophets had foretold.

The oldest whiskey distillery in Scotland.
My god. It's BEAUTIFUL.
I've waited nearly 11 months for my first taste of Guinness in Europe to be at the Guinness Storehouse in Ireland.
It really does taste better in Ireland.
I've been curious about Mojitos for a while now. While we were waiting for our table at the Arlington Hotel, I noticed that the Frank Sinatra Piano Bar had actual Mojitos (instead of those premixed atrocities) and figured "Why not?"
They're nice and in the tropical climates where they originated I can see them being incredibly refreshing but for me, they're just not what I want in an alcoholic drink.

An odometer style counter widget to display either a static value or animates to a set total. Great for tracking totals, not for counting jellyfish.
== Description ==
This plugin adds a widget to your WordPress web site that displays a static or

You can have as many counters as you wish, all can have individual settings for
totals and appearance.
The counters are created via css and require no external graphics files.
You can see a counter in action at http://sharkaroo.net/map
Using an animated counter adds visual and narrative impact to an otherwise

Authorities have confirmed that motorcycle rider Heath Dale "Lightnin" Dean, 46, was killed after a collision with an SUV Wednesday morning.
Police say the accident occurred at the intersection of 94th and Indiana Avenue around 6:50 a.m. when an SUV driven by G.Q. Nell, 69, collided with Dean's motorcycle. Police say Nell stopped at the intersection and then failed to yield the right-of-way to Dean's motorcycle, resulting in the crash.
The impact knocked Dean's helmet off and caused Nell to temporarily lose consciousness. Nell's SUV continued moving east, hitting a fence and narrowly missing a house. Both were taken to UMC where Nell was treated for non-life-threatening injuries.
"I've known the Dean family for probably eight years at least... They're an incredible family, very true, spiritually good and just a happy family. Heath leaves behind two daughters and a beautiful wife," said Molly Harris.
Molly is with See Us Save Us and hopes that this will encourage people to drive more safely on the roadways.
"We just want everyone to look. We want the bike to pay attention to cars, we want the cars to pay attention to bikes, so we just try to promote awareness," Harris said.
As the weather gets warmer, more motorcycle riders are out on the streets and police see a large increase in motorcycle-related accidents. Sgt. Jason Lewis says it's up to the riders themselves to do all they can to avoid accidents.
"What motorcycle riders need to realize is that whether you're at fault or not at fault, you're going to lose, so you need to pay attention to everything around you and ride defensively 100 percent of the time," Lewis said.
According to his Facebook page, Dean was a member of the Boozefighters Motorcycle Club.
If you'd like to help the family, there is a memorial fund set up in the name of Heath Dale "Lightnin" Dean at Citibank.

Mortenebra said...
I spend a really really REALLY long time on names, too. For a while, I named a bunch of my alts after characters from Privateer Press' "Iron Kingdoms" universe, like my undead priest named Mortenebra. But then a friend of mine gave me a Latin-English dictionary for my birthday while I was studying Latin during college. The majority of my alts now have Latin-derived names, like my main alt Saluxis, who was originally a holy paladin before dual-specs (she's now holy/prot). Her name breaks down like this:
salue/salve (to save) + lux (light) = "the saving light"
I originally wrote her name as "Salluxis" to preserve the "sal" and "lux" but thought it looked silly and dreaded having everyone call her Sally. Nothing wrong with the name Sally, mind you-- but it's just not the nickname I had in mind for my plate-wearing, mace-wielding healer.

I won't be playing SW:ToR if only because my "preferred flavor" is medieval-like fantasy, and Star Wars ain't that. Even if it IS kind of like it disguised as a space fighter adventure.
No, I'm waiting for GW2. I think that will be the "outside-the-sandbox" MMO we're all waiting for - but who knows.

What I like about GW2 are all the new features, etc, and being F2P. I know it sounds silly, but $15 for another game besides WoW is just something I can't do, and I still wanna play WoW with friends.
I'm surprised so many people are excited for GW2. I'm not trying to troll here, I may just be remembering incorrectly, but wasn't GW1 basically you level to max in a day and then all the max level (20?) gear has EXACTLY THE SAME STATS? The only difference being completely cosmetic between sets?
Unless GW2 is radically different from that, I really don't see it doing well.

GW's greatest draw was its non-grindy nature, the challenge of surviving its missions (which pretty much amounted to dungeons, except you didn't necessarily HAVE to be in a five-player group to get through it...usually), and the freedom to try to figure out different skill builds that you could play around with (granted, its developers were always having to deal with trying to balance the different classes, which sometimes they did successfully and sometimes... not so successfully, AKA the assassin. We always yearned for at least two more skill slots, but that limitation probably made it work better than it would've otherwise, and kept any of us from being too OP.)
I didn't max in a day, and I also didn't hire any freebie rides, though. What I did was play with my friend and we explored and leveled and quested and went through the missions at our leisure, learned how to play (and love) our classes properly, and that's how it should be played, at least for a first-time experience. Too many people spoil the game for themselves by trying to max too quickly. Kinda like WoW. But I digress.
But yeah, you're right, endgame gear was pretty much irrelevant (as long as you got the max gear, of course). There weren't much in the way of rewards at the end, which is probably the main reason why I moved on to WoW after beating GW. After we beat GW and all its expansions, that was pretty much it for us. But for what it was, it was fun while I played it. Especially the PVP aspect, when it wasn't lagging too badly.
GW2 will be radically different though. You obviously haven't seen the trailers. Whether that's bad or good, I don't know, but it does look like something that's going to be more unique, something better than either GW and perhaps even WoW.
Philster043 said...
Well, let me correct myself. GW's GREATEST draw is probably its lack of subscription. You buy the game and you never to have to pay to play it online.
But besides that.

Zooplankton feeding by corals underestimated
Research by marine biologists from Wageningen University has shown that feeding on zooplankton by scleractinian corals has been greatly underestimated.
Research by marine biologists from Wageningen University has shown that feeding on zooplankton by scleractinian corals has been greatly underestimated.
Scientists from Taiwan and Israel have found that octocorals are important reef builders. This exciting discovery makes us rethink the very nature of coral reefs.
Epizoic coral flatworms have been found to compete with their coral host for zooplankton. This finding is in agreement with the theory that symbiotic coral flatworms are parasitic.
Small polyped stony corals are often believed to simply rely on strong lighting and dissolved nutrients. But even these corals capture significant amounts of plankton.

Euphyllia paradivisa (Veron, 1990)
Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Cnidaria
Class: Anthozoa
Subclass: Hexacorallia
Order: Scleractinia
Family: Euphyllidae
Genus: Euphyllia
Species: paradivisa
Euphyllia paradivisa is a well-known member of the Euphyllidae family, and is often confused with E. divisa. The subtle difference between these species lies in the morphology of the corallum. E. paradivisa has a branching skeleton with separate corallites, also referred to as phaceloid, whereas E. divisa displays flabello-meandroid morphology. E. paradivisa occurs in the Indian and Pacific Oceans, west from Sumatra (Indonesia) to West-Papua (Indonesia) in the east, north to the Philippines and south to northern Australia. It is common in the aquarium trade. Anemone fish from the genus Amphiprion often associate with these corals in home aquaria when natural host anemones are lacking.

FRIDAY, Dec. 6, 2013 (HealthDay News) -- Having a lower variety of bacteria in the gut is associated with colorectal cancer, according to a new study.
Researchers analyzed DNA in fecal samples collected from 47 colorectal cancer patients and 94 people without the disease to determine the level of diversity of their gut bacteria.
Study authors led by Jiyoung Ahn, at the New York University School of Medicine, concluded that decreased bacterial diversity in the gut was associated with colorectal cancer.
The study was published in the Dec. 6 issue of the Journal of the National Cancer Institute.
Colorectal cancer patients had lower levels of bacteria that ferment dietary fiber into butyrate. This fatty acid may inhibit inflammation and the start of cancer in the colon, researchers found.
However, these patients had higher levels of bacteria linked to inflammation in the mouth and gastrointestinal tract.
"Our findings are important because identification of these microbes may open the door for colorectal cancer prevention and treatment," Ahn said in an NYU news release.
These findings are exciting, Volker Mai and Dr. J. Glenn Morris, of the University of Florida at Gainesville, wrote in an accompanying journal editorial.
However, they noted that colorectal cancer risk "is known to be influenced by host genetics, as well as factors such as obesity, nutrition and exercise; given that these factors also influence microbiota, separation of cause and effect among all of these factors may become quite difficult."
Further studies are needed, the researchers said.

The four-decade long wave of immigration from Mexico to the United States may have come to a standstill, with more Mexicans returning home than are entering the country.
A recent report by the Pew Hispanic Center indicates that the historic wave that brought more than 12 million immigrants to this country may have come to an end.
What affect this will have on a generation of young adults who grew up with the immigration debate raging around them remains to be seen.
The report from the Pew Hispanic Center, a research center located in Washington, D.C., named a number of reasons for the decline in the number of incoming immigrants. These included the economy, tougher immigration enforcement, dangerous border crossings and a decline in birth rates in Mexico along with an improved economy in that country.
It is still too early to tell whether or not this trend will continue, however.
"On a very basic level it's for job prospects," said Ryan Enos, assistant professor of government at Harvard University. "When the job prospects start to come back as the United States economy improves you might start to see some of that reverse."
From California's controversial Proposition 187 in 1994 to Arizona's immigration law currently under review by the Supreme Court, no college student alive today has known an America without the controversial immigration debate.
The reverse in numbers may have little practical affect on the national immigration debate, however, as much of it is based on how people feel about the issue instead of facts, said Enos.
Arrests of illegal Mexican border crossers have dropped 70% in recent years, indicating that fewer people are trying to cross the border, while deportations have increased to record levels. All of this comes at a time when the United States has drastically increased border enforcement funding, according to the Pew report.
"As long as that's an issue that politicians can use as a wedge issue it's not something that's likely to change," said Enos. "It doesn't reflect demographic change but rather the deep-seated beliefs that people carry around with them."
Whether or not the immigration trend continues, the impact of the Latino voting group on American politics has become a permanent part of American culture.
During the 2010 election 60% of Latinos voted Democratic while 38% voted Republican, according to the Pew Center.
This folding of foreigners into the American culture has caused the United States to be described as the "melting pot" of the world.
The United States has experienced successive waves of immigrants throughout its history. From the Irish and Germans to the Italians to the Chinese, each group of immigrants has contributed to this country's history.
But each group has also experienced its own form of difficulty and discrimination.
The four-decade long wave of immigration from Mexico is proportionally similar in numbers to the wave of Irish and German immigrants who came to America during the middle of the 19th century.
Whatever or not the immigration wave continues the political debate will is sure to continue.
"People don't know the answers so they look to politicians or people they think are influential to answer those questions for them," said Enos.

3 years ago she was mistress #1 in Tiger Woods scandal ... which exploded the day after Thanksgiving when an angry Elin clubbed Tiger's SUV, causing it to slam into a tree.
Fast forward to Turkey Night 2012 -- Rachel Uchitel, the once wild nightclub manager, is now fully-domesticated just having spent her first Thanksgiving with husband Matt Hahn -- a Penn State football star and now San Francisco finance guy -- and 6-month-old daughter Wyatt Lilly.
It's unclear how Tiger and ex-wife Elin spent their Thanksgiving, but we're guessing it wasn't together.
By the way – No tigers were harmed in the making of these photos.
Getting really tired of casual sex partners called "mistress." A mistress is given a house, furs, charge accounts, cars, trips and some position. Not these women.
Domesticated?? This is the same 9/11 widow who got her money to screw others husbands from a guy she said died to give her life!
The baby looks a little bit like Tiger Woods, is it possible that Rachel Uchitel had a lovemaking session with Tiger even though she was married to this guy? Rachel had no problem having sex with the husbands of other woman, so she has no moral compass, anything is possible with this woman
rachel will always be nothing but a dirtbag whore in my book. she always has been and always will be, she can mask her life with a family and kids, but this stupid bitch will **** over anyone, she is a user and abuser with fake hair, fake nails, fake lips, fake tan and fake smelly puss.. she is dirt and the saddest part is she knows she is dirt and keeps on being dirt. one day its all coming back to her.. oh wait. it already has..
They named their daughter WYATT?? F*cking trash.
a fully-domesticated hooker is still a hooker fully-domesticated, ... o.k. a hooker that can cook and clean dishes maybe...
She looks happy - good for her!
Bitch was so happy to get on camera when her fiancee died in the Twin Towers on 9/11. Bitch was happy to whore for Tiger. Bitch was truly happy when she had paps following her every mood. Once a whore always a whore.
Why even bother with the 'Rachel Uchitel
Happy 3 year Anniversary' ruse?
The writers at TMZ can't think of a thing to report about, so they re-post photos of the Tiger Woods crash that happened 3 years ago today?
If you are really that hard up for news, why not ask your loyal members what they would like to talk about?
Talk about flogging a dead horse!!
who cares another fame whore!
Stop celebrating whores and mistresses. I certainly wouldn't want my name spread far and wide as a woman like that. I'd keep it on the down low, real low. SHhhhhhh....
I just remember on her post 911 interview she stated that because her fiance died she would have to "start over" pretty much meaning "find another man" to give her everything...no words about the man or his family who lost him
also its obvious she wants these personal photos out there since she didn't friend lock any gallery
poor husband and daughter ,can't she keep anything private?
I hope you are really happy Rachel....then I hope some woman comes in and sleeps with your man and breaks up your family! Karma for the homewrecking whore!
Lets cut her some slack she lost her fiance on 9/11 and as a result went nuts...she became a wh*re, f*cked Tiger Woods, got knocked up by this closet case and now has a baby. She's living the dream.
I know she is a beautiful woman but how in the world did this guy bring her home to meet his parents and then allow her to be the mother of his child? I mean come on she was a hooker.

Specifically, NCSTU's programs include:
The Substance Abuse Program is designed for the care and treatment of serious and chronic adjudicated delinquent youth with substance abuse issues. Treatment is built upon "A New Direction" curriculum that addresses the multiple issues that lead to substance abuse and criminal behavior and includes the following six modules:
The General Secure Program is designed for the care and treatment of general delinquency juvenile male offenders. The General Secure Program also uses components of "A New Direction" curriculum since the material is also applicable to the general delinquency population, yet the foundation of the program remains a cognitive behavioral and strengths based approaches.
The Mental Health/Mental Retardation Program serves the chronic offender who has an IQ of 80 and below, and who possesses no significant deficits in adaptive behavior patterns. The program is designed to enhance the youth's self-esteem and promote a positive identity. This is accomplished through reinforcing those skills and abilities that the youth already possesses, providing him with successful experiences and allowing him to make choices.
The MH/MR Program treatment services include: individual case management, group counseling, medical and psychological services, prevocational skills training, restitution program, computer skills training, prerelease program and volunteer resources. Residents receive specific group counseling in the areas of:
Individual counseling focuses on the above areas with the addition of grief/loss and self esteem.
The Girls Program provides gender specific treatment services to adjudicated delinquent female youth. The program provides a safe, supportive environment, while encouraging and empowering young women to lead healthy lifestyles that promote dignity, integrity and responsibility.
The program provides effective services for a specialized population of girls who require the highest level of care. Programming includes:
In addition, gender responsive services are provided to improve emotional and behavioral functioning and reduce the adverse effects of past experience that may include abuse, victimization, neglect, exploitation, unhealthy relationships and trauma.
The educational program at NCSTU is provided through CSIU #16. The school offers vocational and life skills education, to include a Culinary Arts/Food Management Program. NCSTU's school is an approved GED and SAT testing site.
A limited number of youth are also afforded an opportunity to participate in paid work training programs that enable restitution to be paid. More specifically, NCSTU has twelve paid "Work Training Programs" designed to teach youth job skills and provide for a means of restoring victims through restitution payments.

All Levels of Government Are Needed to Address Electronic Voting System Challenges

(202) 512-4800
Since the 2000 national elections, concerns have been raised by various groups regarding the election process, including voting technologies. Beginning in 2001, GAO published a series of reports examining virtually every aspect of the elections process. GAO's complement of reports was used by Congress in framing the Help America Vote Act of 2002, which, among other things, provided for replacement of older voting equipment with more modern electronic voting systems and established the Election Assistance Commission (EAC) to lead the nation's election reform efforts. GAO's later reports have raised concerns about the security and reliability of these electronic voting systems, examined the EAC's efforts to address these concerns, and surveyed state and local officials about practices used during the 2004 election, as well as plans for their systems for the 2006 election. Using its published work on electronic voting systems, GAO was asked to testify on (1) the contextual role and characteristics of electronic voting systems, (2) the range of security and reliability concerns that have been reported about these systems, (3) the experiences and management practices of states and local jurisdictions regarding these systems, and (4) the longstanding and emerging challenges facing all levels of government in using these systems.
Voting systems are one facet of a multifaceted, year-round elections process that involves the interplay of people, processes, and technology, and includes all levels of government. How well these systems play their role in an election depends in large part on how well they are managed throughout their life cycles, which begins with defining system standards; includes system design, development, and testing; and concludes with system operations. Important attributes of the systems' performance are security, reliability, ease of use, and cost effectiveness. A range of groups knowledgeable about elections or voting systems have expressed concerns about the security and reliability of electronic voting systems; these concerns can be associated with stages in the system life cycle. Examples of concerns include vague or incomplete voting system standards, system design flaws, poorly developed security controls, incorrect system configurations, inadequate testing, and poor overall security management. For the 2004 national elections, states' and local governments' responses to our surveys showed that they did not always ensure that important life cycle and security management practices were employed for their respective electronic voting systems. In particular, responses indicated that the most current standards were not always adopted and applied, security management practices and controls were employed to varying degrees, and certain types of system testing were not commonly performed. Moreover, jurisdictions' responses showed that they did not consistently monitor the performance of their systems. In GAO's view, the challenges faced in acquiring and operating electronic voting systems are not unlike those faced by any technology user--adoption and application of well-defined system standards; effective integration of the technology with the people who operate it and the processes that govern the operation; rigorous and disciplined performance of system security and testing activities; reliable measurement of system performance; and the analytical basis for making informed, economically justified decisions about voting system investment options. These challenges are complicated by other conditions such as the distribution of responsibilities among various organizations and funding opportunities and constraints. Given the diffused and decentralized allocation of voting system roles and responsibilities across all levels of government, addressing these challenges will require the combined efforts of all levels of government, under the leadership of the EAC. To assist the EAC in executing its leadership role, GAO has previously made recommendations to the commission aimed at better planning its ongoing and future activities relative to, for example, system standards and information sharing. While the EAC agreed with the recommendations, it stated that its ability to effectively execute its role is constrained by a lack of adequate resources.

Have branded Apps really failed?
Huge buzz of late has seen the hot topic and debate around a subject that I personally believe has always been true. For many years the majority of branded apps have failed. I'm surprised to see this hit the press so late, as have with all honesty seen 1000's of apps produced by brands, fail. It's not just a tough or crowded market place to do with ratings or ranking positions, it really comes down to why an audience would use your application in the first place. It's about product and its use, and at the end of the day, good product is awarded good ratings and reviews and can find success with the right route to market.
Barclaycard's WaterslideExtreme
I see the example of Barclaycard's WaterslideExtreme as an App that has achieved great success, but what measures this success? A huge amount of downloads came from this App, I have seen figures of around 12.5 Million downloads. This is a huge number, but what really quantifies this into success?
Has the App meant 12.5 Million new customers, or payments because people trust the brand more from this game? Has it really meant long-term brand value or greater profitability? I struggle to think so to be honest. It was a fad and as harsh as that sounds, it would have been forgotten about soon after the game was completed or became boring, and ended up on the shelf with thousands more.
It was hugely successful in terms of downloads, but without a strategy to link this back to the brand, it could be seen as a short term fix not a long term goal, and downloads alone are a long way alone for quantifying as a success metric.
The brands that are seeing success (which is quite a few), are making mobile work for them and their consumers. Making the consumer's life easier, saving time and ultimately offering a service or product that is more convenient or better. If a product can save you time, it's a no brainer, time is money and we all really want an easier life. The brands that are getting this right, filling a need and producing solid products are the ones who are gaining higher loyalty and ultimately profitability.
Mobile differs massively from online, although it shares many similarities in terms of advertising mediums (as ultimately mobiles are becoming the computers of tomorrow), they are very different entities and need to be understood to achieve success.
Adding value through mobile
When designing product, a communication/advertisement, or a strategy via the mobile channel, you must always think from the consumer's perspective. Why would a consumer want to use your service and what is the benefit for them? Does it add value, longevity and does it fit into their lives? If it's not easier, fulfills a need or adds value where yours or others products cannot, it will be passed by and rarely used if ever again.
A good paradigm for mobile can be seen below:
Understanding what a consumer's needs are, the environment that they need to use your product in, coupled with producing a product that makes their life easier, will always more often than not lead to success. Mobile is fast becoming our first preference as a consumer, as it is always with us when we need. Now how can your brand position itself to fulfill that need when it is at its highest? From this point work back
The risk of getting it wrong
Games are a very different world, but from a branded App experience the mobile device can lead to an unrivaled brand loyalty. It must be utilised and designed for properly, if not, you are risking leaving your current and future consumers with a bad taste and second-guessing what your brand really stands for.
I have had the pleasure working with some great brands and the pleasure of advising them to huge monetary success via applications. This arena is far from dead, and brands still have a large part to play in it. As soon as they understand what it means to their business models, their consumers, their needs and create products that are usable, convenient and of quality, the better it will be for them, and eventually us all.

Berlin, Vermont - June 17, 2010
A battle between a Berlin restaurant and the Vermont Transportation Agency is over.
The transportation agency bought out the lease from the owners of Sambel's restaurant. The price was not disclosed.
The Sambels have owned the airport eatery for 21 years, leasing the building from the state. But the state recently said it needed to charge more because it was losing $60,000 a year on the current lease. The owners fought the change, but now have decided to accept the lease buyout and will close the restaurant by the end of August.
Bob Sambel: It's very sad. I'll be here 21 years and to have it end like this it's a long time of your life-- one-third of it's a long time of your life-- one-third of your life.
Reporter Kristin Carlson: Did you feel like this was your only option?
Brenda Sambel: Yes it is. They are a lot bigger then we are. They have more resources then we do. We did what we could do to keep it going. They just have more power behind them.
Sambel's owners are now looking for another location. They will continue to do catering.
The state says it plans to rent the building, but for a higher cost.

For the first time since surfacing last August after being kidnapped for 18 years, Jaycee Lee Dugard was spotted in public outside a Subway sandwich shop recently.
The mother of two turns 30 on Monday.
OMG Leave her alone! She's a victim not a celeb! This is soooo wrong!!!
I am done with TMZ. It's bad enough a photographer took this shot, but to post it??? Let her be. She didn't ask to be a "public" figure. It's because she was/is the victim of a horrendous crime that we even know who she is. Disgusting. This picture should be removed and Harvey, you should be ashamed. Later....
TMZ why don't you have your paps do volunteer work in tracking down probation violators and help monitor registered sex offenders so we can keep victims like Jaycee safe! Spend the time on that, and not on following her!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE REMOVE this PHOTO!
AS mother of three, Jacyee DID not ask to be PHOTOGRAPHED! She not a celebrity of sorts-- SHE A VICTIM of a unspeakable crime of violation to a woman.
Lookin' Good. I do her.
I love u TMZ but come on man !!! that's really not cool. Poor girl !! leave her alone. she's not a celebrity. whoever took that picture is an idiot !!!
wow your low tmz leave the girl alone what the f is wrong with you.
I see this hasn't been taken down yet. I will no longer be visiting TMZ.com or viewing their show until I hear that this "story" has been removed. I have posted this to my facebook as a LINK (with the associated press reference below) and I would be delighted if others did the same:
I am asking everyone to join me in a boycott of TMZ.
Today, TMZ published a "story" of Jaycee Lee Dugard as she left a local Subway. There is no need to go to the site - that's ALL there is to it. For those of you unaware, Jaycee was the 11 year-old girl who was kidnapped, repeatedly raped, bore two children without professional medi...cal care, and held against her will for eighteen years. She and her family have repeatedly asked for privacy from the media as they heal, until they can address public concerns on their own time.
Jaycee is not a TMZ "celebrity." She is a private citizen and a victim/survivor of horrific abuse.
If you agree with me, please repost this until TMZ removes their so-called "story" and issues an apology to Jaycee and her family for disregarding their wishes in such a rude and unnecessary way: she deserves privacy more than TMZ needs hits to their site.
Shut up to all those crazy people saying to leave her alone....
what happened to her should have never happened and I hope they kill this guy and all of that but
She has been going around and selling her story... Only a fool is going to feel bad... why because this was free?
VERY POOR TASTE TMZ - remove this - surely you can find some celeb under a rock to photograph!
Hey 100, you're the moron. She did that article as a way to diffuse the attention. You give a controlled interview, put a few pictures out there and the public interest dies down. I seriously doubt that she expects to be photographed while leaving a subway and then have it posted online.
I clicked on this because I think about her horrifying experience, and worry about my own children's safety.
I am conflicted. I am so happy to see her looking healthy and happy, but at the same time, she needs to know that she is a free woman, and is not being stalked or watch.
I am ashamed that I clicked the link, and I hope that you don't print any more of these Jaycee pictures. I assume, that unlike celebrities, Ms. Dugard had no intention of becoming a photographed like this.
fan of TMZ
Wow, you hit an all time low!!! Leave her alone!!
Victims of horrible crimes are not celebrities TMZ. Leave her alone and let her continue to settle into society as best she can. your posting this material only encourages others to follow your lead and it is repugnant.
Don't care if she did a spread in People, Us, In Touch or even Playboy for that matter...her terms...not ours...leave her ALONE!!!

Imaging Particle Analysis - Ballast Water Applications
Originally developed for oceanographic research, FlowCAM ® offers significant advantages in ballast water analysis. It can detect, image and count microorganisms in ballast water. Flexible and easy to use, the FlowCAM can be customized with various excitation lasers to accommodate specific detection work. FlowCAM is an integrated digital imaging system for rapidly analyzing particles or cells in a fluid. By combining capabilities of flow cytometry, microscopy, digital imaging and fluorescence detection, the FlowCAM automatically counts, images, and analyzes the particles or cells in a discrete sample or a continuous flow. Powered by our VisualSpreadsheet software, the FlowCAM offers the fastest, most intuitive ballast water analysis available.
Available as either a benchtop or portable model, the FlowCAM® can be used in the lab or in the field. That's why it's now used worldwide by scientists, researchers, and technicians to support their work in ballast water systems testing.
FlowCAM Ballast Water Example:
Monitor and analyze ballast water with greater accuracy and insight.
In order to ensure that treated ballast water is meeting the Ballast Water Performance Standard [D2 Regulations] set by the IMO's international convention, it is a requirement that viable cells within certain size ranges be detected and enumerated. The FlowCAM® is ideally suited to monitor treated ballast water and is being used by research groups as a tool to determine the efficacy of different ballast water treatment method.
Testing Results of using the FlowCAM® for ballast water anaylsis.
The organisms used during this study, with the FDA protocol and stain, were two dinoflagellates and one chlorophyte. Two results are presented:
Live Test
When looking at live cells, (Fig. A), they acquire FDA stain (highlighted in blue) with a mean green fluorescence (Ch2) value of 3268.48.
Dead Test
For the dead test, (Fig. B) there is almost a complete absence of Ch2 (green fluorescence) observed when the cells are preserved, as the cells do not acquire the FDA stain (mean Ch2 fluorescence = 220.84). The FlowCAM® scatter diagram in Fig B. (Ch2) clearly shows that all the cells are dead. For both tests, the mean Ch1 fluorescence remains nearly constant (between 2967-3115), indicating the presence of chlorophyll (red fluorescence) within all the cells.
When the cells are viable, the FDA stained population (shown in blue) is clearly distinguishable from the non-viable cells within the same sample (shown in red in Fig. A).

HANOVER, N.H. (AP) - Dartmouth College is opening a new center for the prevention of sexual assault and violence.
The office will serve as the hub for a new initiative that trains students to become better bystanders by helping their peers and defusing threatening situations. It will be known as the Center for Community Action and Prevention and will be directed by Amanda Childress, who has been the college's Sexual Assault Awareness Program Coordinator for the past two years.
In a speech to faculty in November, Dartmouth President Philip Hanlon said about 600 students have gone through the bystander training and another 800 are expected to be trained by this summer.

The coeducation file: More surprises in the McPhee Collection
Ben Simon is a student assistant in Special Collections & Archives. This summer he is working on a project to organize the papers of Cal Poly President Julian McPhee (1933-1966). This is the third in a series of posts in which he shares his experiences processing McPhee's papers and learning more about the university's history.
For decades, a rumor persisted among Cal Poly students and faculty that the university was established as a men's-only college. I will finally debunk that myth: Cal Poly was established in 1901 as a coeducational vocational school. It was not until 1930 that the college banned women from admission, a ban which lasted nearly 27 years.

Gentex SWOT Analysis: No Dim Future
Josh is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
One of the simplest ways to get an overview of a company's operations is through a SWOT analysis. Here the main strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of the company are laid out for all to see. Having been given a 44% haircut in stock price this year, we will take a look at auto-dimming rearview mirror maker, Gentex Corporation (NASDAQ: GNTX), and see if their future is any brighter.
- 21 Automakers (and growing) currently use one or more variations of the auto-dimming mirrors.
- Innovation: Developed new SmartBeam Dynamic Forward Lighting in 2012, along with high beam assist, driver warning systems, and Rear Camera Display mirrors.
- Basic Monopoly on auto-dimming mirrors with an 88% market share.
- No debt, a solid balance sheet, and a profit margin of 15%.
- Low moat: 98% of revenues come from automatic-dimming rearview mirrors.
- Reliant upon innovation to drive future growth in the rearview mirror market.
- 20% of employees work for the Research and Developement Team; often takes years for these investments in technology to pay off.
- Growth in emerging markets: Asian and Western Europe markets are still largely undeveloped for auto-dimming mirrors.
- Penetration rates for auto-dimming mirrors sit below 50% and 30% in North America and Western Europe respectively; Even lower in Asia at slightly less that 10%.
- Rear Camera Display Mirrors (RCD's): All new cars made in America may potentially be required to have RCD's by December 2012; Currently sold to 10 Automakers.
- New product lines in SmartBeam headlamps and auto-dimming windows for aircraft; Higher margin product lines could help fuel a future growth story.
- 45% of auto-dimming mirror unit shipments are to Europe.
- Growing number of competitors; Private companies like Ichikoh Industries produce similar mirror-related products and Magna International (NYSE: MGA) is its only competition traded on an exchange.
- Magna has larger cash flows than Gentex and could prove to be a true competitor as it is the second largest producer of internal and external mirrors.
- Pricing: Increased competition could lower prices and lead to depressed margins over the long term.
- Gentex is directly tied to a cyclical and volatile world in regards to the auto industry.
- In-dash Rear Camera Displays may be more popular with automakers, versus the rearview mirror displays Gentex offers; stock price recently took a hit on this news.
Foolish Final Considerations
With the SWOT analysis presented, Gentex can clearly be seen as the industry leader in auto-dimming rearview mirrors. With future growth stories in its SmartBeam headlamps, Rear Camera Displays, and a movement towards new global markets, Gentex still has a lot to prove-- and possibly accomplish.
Trading with a PE of only 14 and a Price/Cash Flow of 11, Gentex has a lot to offer, as it is trading well below its historical averages and sports a generous 3% dividend. While Magna may have lower and more appealing valuations, it struggled more than Gentex during the recession and doesn't have the true growth runway that Gentex does. Holding a fair Payout Ratio of only 43% and a healthy Cash Flow, I am adding Gentex on CAPS with a 5+ year pick and will keep a close eye on it for my portfolio.

Pultruded Batten Features:
Sold per foot (full feet only). Lengths greater than 8 ft (96 inches) will arrive coiled, please use caution when unpacking as they are under a great deal of pressure.
Fiberglass battens are hard to sand smooth across the grain and tend to delaminate at the ends unless they are protected. These end caps are made of injected molded nylon.
This video shows how to install a standard batten pocket on your mainsail. This style of
batten pocket is the most popular technique in building a standard batten pocket because it is
easy to make and effective in use. This video will guide you in the steps required to build a
standard batten pocket for your sail.
When a Sailrite mainsail kit calls for standard battens (non-full length) we most often recommends a triangular batten pocket be built to accommodate the batten at each batten location on the sail. This style of batten pocket requires a little more patterning, but is typically used for medium to larger boats. From patterning the pocket to installing the batten this video walks the user through all the steps.
