We have suggested some additional clearing of branches and vines in the fairways as well as some signage for safety concerns. Hopefully they will iron out these final details and have the course in good shape for the opening tournament weekend on May 2-3. Lastly, when you're throwing, please be mindful of the trail users out there.

Big Red wrote:I played almost all of this course yesterday before it got dark. I am frankly shocked that it is being attacked in this fashion. Is it good? No not at all; it's horrible, but there are lots of courses around like this one and some that are worse that don't get attacked like this. I would say East Roswell is just as bad and every course at the IDGC and the hippodrome is probably worse. I would also say Tom Tripplett is just as bad as well. The only thing those courses have over this one is length but that doesn't make them any better or any fairer. I pretty much never agree with what other disc golfers do or think but this criticism of this course in relation to others is truly baffling to me. I would bet most of you view all the courses I just mentioned as solid or even good "pro level" courses that require "skill" and "course management" with great "risk reward." It seems like there is a bit of a popularity contest going on here more so than actual objective analysis of course design.

Free weekly email packed with travel tips for major world cities, great competitions and exciting features.
It's easy to see why Egypt is a popular holiday destinations. It's hot, flights and packages from Britain are affordable, and it offers a multitude of attractions and activities ranging from exploring the ancient sights of Cairo and Luxor to beach-lounging along Alexandria's Mediterranean coastline to scaling the 2,285 metre-high Mount Sinai. Here we round up the best places to visit.
First-time visitors to the sprawling, bustling city of Cairo usually gaze on in wonder at the frenetic activity in the bazaars, the busy streetlife and the Islamic architecture. With approximately 15 million residents, it's Africa's biggest city. It's easy to organise trips to see the Great Pyramid and the Sphinx, as well as the Egyptian Museum that houses Tutankhamun's tomb and its treasures. By contrast, Alexandria, founded in 331 BC, and which occupies a 20-kilometre strip along the Mediterranean coast, is Egypt's second city and feels more cosmopolitan with its colonial-style architecture, beaches and restaurants, not to mention its illustrious ancient past. It's easy to take the train between the two cities.
Book with Cox & Kings (020 7873 5000, www.coxandkings.co.uk).
Stretching from the Suez Canal in the north to Sudan in the south, the Red Sea is some 1,250 kilometres long and flanked with superb beaches, mountains and desert. The tranquil resorts of Marsa Alam, El Quseir and Port Ghalib on the west coast of the Red Sea east of Luxor boast beaches, mountain backdrops and nightlife (largely hotel-based). These resorts lack the crowds you'll find at other more popular choices (such as Sharm el Sheikh), making the area a savvy choice if you're after a more laid-back vibe. Red Sea diving and snorkelling is the obvious activity here, but you can also arrange a Jeep safari to the Eastern Desert. Be warned: it can get very hot here; if you prefer cooler climes, opt to visit in the winter months, when temperatures are in the mid-20s.
Book with Thomas Cook (0844 412 5969, www.thomascook.com).
Luxor, on the east bank of the Nile, has been attracting visitors for thousands of years. Built on the site of the ancient Egyptian capital Thebes, it's home to some of the world's most important archaeological sights (be warned that the crowds can be a little overwhelming). Luxor Temple, founded by Amenophis III circa 1400 BC, is the city's most popular attraction; the tombs of the Valley of the Kings – where Tutankhamun was buried – are nothing short of impressive. And if you need a break from the ruins, you can arrange hot-air ballooning or a one-day Nile cruise. The best months to visit, weather-wise, are October to February.
Book with Discover Egypt (0844 880 0462, www.discoveregypt.co.uk).
Egypt's Western Desert, which extends to Libya on the west, Sudan on the south and the Nile on its east, is a vast expanse that covers approximately two thirds of the country. It makes for an adventurous holiday for intrepid travellers. The only sensible way to get to see this arid part of Egypt is by booking an organised trek. The Adventure Company runs a ten-day Desert Explorer group trip travelling by camel and Jeep that begins and ends in Cairo and includes desert camps, visits to empty desert villages, a trip to the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Valley of the Whales to see 40 million-year-old fossils, the tomb of Alexander the Great and a donkey ride to the Valley of the Kings from Luxor.
Book with The Adventure Company (0845 450 0838, www.adventurecompany.co.uk).
At 2,285 metres high, an ascent of Mount Sinai – where Moses received the Ten Commandments – is not for the faint-hearted, but it's hard to beat the incredible sense of achievement and sensational views when you reach the summit. World Expeditions' 11-day Sinai Trek begins in Cairo and, after a day acclimatising and visiting the Pyramids at Giza, you begin the hiking element. The company employs Bedouin guides and camels to carry your stuff as you spend five days walking through the surrounding landscape and hills. The hiking culminates with a pre-dawn start – the reward is watching the sunrise from the top of Mount Sinai.

Hi there! I know tourisim in Egypt is probably relatively non-existant these days but I just had to contribute about this fabulous Nile cruise that I went on. It was through a company called Nour el Nil based out of Luxor. We sailed down the Nile on an aesthetically perfect dahabieh, ate hands down the best food of my life and made so many warm memories I smile thinking about it. I wrote up a little snippit with some photos on my travel blog here:
Warm Regards,

Im guilty of the boot one...Redwing steel toes are one of the most comfortable things in the world to me now.Precision is only as important as the project...if you're building a rocket ship...1/64" would matter. If you're building a sledgehammer...an 1/8" probably wont.

In this webinar, experts discuss barriers immigrant and LEP individuals face in accessing the WIA system, how a revitalized WIA could address these barriers, and the extent to which the current Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP) Committee's WIA reauthorization proposal addresses these barriers.
Proactive Engagement: Two Strategies for Providing Language Access in Workforce Development Services
This interactive language access webinar, one in a series offered by the Migration Policy Institute's National Center on Immigrant Integration Policy, examines how New York and Illinois have broken down some of these barriers to proactively engage LEP communities to obtain workforce services.
Public Policy Institute of California (PPIC) research fellows Magnus Lofstrom and Sarah Bohn, and UC Berkeley professor of public policy Steven Raphael are issuing a new report that examines whether LAWA achieved its primary aims: reducing the unauthorized population, deterring their employment opportunities and improving employment outcomes of competing authorized workers. Their analysis also investigates whether Arizona's legislation induced a shift away from formal employment.
This discussion focuses on the MPI report, "Executive Action on Immigration: Six Ways to Make the System Work Better," which outlines administrative actions that can be implemented to improve the immigration system.

I've noticed that when I'm out at night stars seem to vanish when I focus on them. I assume the reason is physiological and not astronomic. Why does this happen? I would expect that things would be more clear when I focus on them.

When there is little light, the color-detecting cone cells are not sensitive enough, and all vision is done by rod cells. Cone cells are concentrated in the center of the eye, whereas rod cells are very rare in the center (image source):
When you focus on the star, the light is projected close to the center of the retina, where it will hit few rod cells. Thus the star appears to vanish.

ProDen PlaqueOff Animal is an easy way for those dog and cat owners to care for their pet's teeth who don't have the patience or inclination to brush their dog or cat's teeth regularly. The product comes in powdered form and it is simply added on a daily basis to dry or wet food. Dogs and cats like the taste of the small amount that is added.
ProDen PlaqueOff Animal does not rely on topical application or friction. The product is ingested and works systemically. The natural compound in the product comes out through the saliva and works to break down the bacterial biofilm that forms on the teeth and gums. This is how the natural bacteria in the mouth take hold onto the teeth and gums, colonizing and creating the oral problems of plaque and tartar, bad breathe and gingivitis. It does not change the pH of the mouth or kill off the normal levels of bacteria. ProDen PlaqueOff has been proven to reduce plaque and tartar on the teeth and gums, depending on composition, diet and how long it has been there. It then works to prevent bad breath, plaque and tartar from returning. Patients generally begin to see results over a 2-8 week period, and will see further benefits with continued use.
ProDen PlaqueOff Animal is made from a specific strain of selected seaweed harvested from above Scandinavia. This seaweed has developed a natural defensive mechanism against bacterial biofilm. The product is made only from this seaweed and has no additives or chemicals added. It is human grade and human tested.

Suggested Use
About Arsenic (information supplied by ProDen's creator, Dr. Sune Wikner)It is important to understand that arsenic exists everywhere in nature. There are two forms of arsenic: inorganic and organic. The former may be toxic; the latter is not. In the US the upper safe consumption limit is 2 µg arsenic per kg body weight per day. In Europe the figure is 15. Note that those figures relate to inorganic arsenic. Several studies report that the algae that used in ProDen PlaqueOff contains exclusively organic arsenic (7 µg per scoop).
Moreover, ProDen contains alginates which are poorly absorbed from the intestine into the bloodstream. Instead they are excreted via feces. The alginates found in PlaqueOff have another well known property. They bind heavy metals like Strontium, Arsenic, Lead and Cadmium. Then the heavy metals leave the body via feces with the alginates and do not enter the blood. In fact, people living near nuclear plants in the US are recommended to eat algae if there is a risk for strontium leaking from the plant.
Therefore, there is no risk for arsenic poisoning for pets taking ProDen PlaqueOff.

Be Careful
By Nin
from Montana
My vet cautioned against using kelp/"seaweed" with dogs as it has been linked to heart murmurs. Our hound mix suddenly had a level 3 heart murmur at his last senior appointment. May not be related, but we no longer use the product as a precaution.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Works great!
By Kim
from Warner Robins, Georgia
I sprinkle a scoop of this on the top of my dogs' food each time I feed them. I use it in conjunction with Ark Naturals Dentals treats and the vet always says their teeth look great. Started using it because they weren't cooperating with brushing as puppies and I kept forgetting to brush.
doesnt work
By the grim
from west, cali
I used this product a year ago with no results on my 5 pound dog. I decided to buy it again and have been using it on my 3 small dogs with no results AGAIN. i cant see this working on large dogs if it wont work on a 4 pound dog. theirs a reason this product for humans isn't really promoted in the usa and that's because they would get in a lot of trouble, they can get away with it on pets but not humans. do your research seaweed and even greens have been proven for bad breath not cleaning teeth.

It Works!
By Gerard's 4 legged family
from Mesa, Az
I've been using this product about 4 weeks now and I've seen great results. I have an older cat who's teeth were in rough shape, really red around the gums & discoloring of the teeth. 4 weeks in all of that is almost all gone and she no longer hesitates with eating food from the pain. I'm overjoyed because the other option was a huge bill from a vet. Thanks for creating a great product that works ProDen! Also I only have been using 1 scoop between two bowls I have a younger cat who's teeth are fine but it's keeping his in tip-top shape.

Plaque off works. What they don't tell you is that it's just a common seaweed called Ascophyllum nodosum which you can buy human grade organic for $8 a pound! Search it anywhere, buy the real thing and save your money on other wonderful things from this site.

Plaque Off
By Dixie
from New Boston, TX
I have an 8 year old Great Dane and use this product once a day in her morning meal.She likes the taste and eats her food and at the same time she laps up the Plaque Off. You could see the difference with a couple of days. Her teeth are white and any build up does not last. I had her teeth cleaned about 2 years ago, but as she gets older I don't think it is safe to put her under to do this. So I bought this product with that in mind. Well it works and as long as I use it once a day I don't think I will have her teeth cleaned again anytime soon. Thank you

Great product.

Sound & Politics
This is a clip of the ezan, which is the main subject I have been studying as it relates to language politics and the interplay between religion and secularism in Turkey. The fact that the call to prayer is in Arabic unites the "Muslim World" as the liturgical language is commonly understood, regardless of the native tongue of the worshipper. Performing the ezan in a different language would imply a sort of separation and ethnic division, where the practitioner is placing their own tradition above the language of the Qur'an (Arabic). The common liturgical language shows respect for the religion and worshippers everywhere, even if the Arabic required must be learned as a second language. Thus the use of Turkish language in the ezan for around 30 years represents a significant shift in political thought.
This is a sound clip of İstiklâl Marşı, which is the national anthem of Turkey and was adopted in 1921. The song is a reflection of the essence of nationalistic sentiment; the lyrics celebrate and affection for the Turkish homeland and was written to help raise the spirits of the military, as with most national anthems. This sound clip is important to the understanding of Turkish secularism, as a framed copy of this anthem resides in each classroom, along with a picture of Atatürk and an image of the Turkish flag. This display represents the devotion to the state and the support of a secular government–while God is mentioned in the lyrics of the anthem, the idea of God is used as a secondary support as a reason to fight for the State. Kemalist ideas of secularism by no means exclude religion, but rather place more value upon national identity than religious identity and separate the government from religious ideas, which may inform—but not dictate—the law of the land.
This last section is a recording of Atatürk's speech to Turkish youth fighting in the War for Independence. The first thing he says is "Birinci vazifen, Türk istiklâlini, Türk Cumhuriyetini, ilelebet, muhafaza ve müdafaa etmektir." This can be translated to mean, "Your first duty is to preserve and to defend Turkish Independence and the Turkish Republic forever." This statement is critical to understand the essence of Kemalism, which resists typical American politicizations like "conservative" or "liberal"—in a sense, Kemalism is an extremely "right-wing" sort of ideology, where the state and the idea of "the people" are revered; however, Kemalism is also—particularly in the context of its time—an extremely "liberal" ideology in its radical break from the Caliphate model of government and the increase in modernizations that departed from the traditional customs of Turkey (such as dress, architecture, etc.). The purpose of the political speech is to rouse a feeling of "togetherness" for something bigger than the self; the rhetoric embodied the desire for a new and better order after the decline of the Ottoman Empire.

Options at the low end of the charter market-single-engine turbine and piston aircraft as well as VLJs (very light jets)-are expanding. That's good news if you've been priced out of larger jets, want to upgrade an automobile or airline trip without busting the bank or are looking to save money on short flights or when traveling without a large group.
Flying » Business Jet Charter
October 1, 2010
August 1, 2010
Say for a moment that you own an aircraft rather than simply fly on those you charter. Given the direct operating costs and all the other expenses of ownership, how much would you charge a stranger to use your airplane?
June 1, 2010
It's one of the most visited destinations in the air charter world: the Web. But finding the best ways to take advantage of it has challenged charter providers and customers since the start of the dot-com revolution. Virgin Charter's idea for a one-stop online booking portal closed down almost as quickly as it popped up.
April 1, 2010
Conceptually, it makes sense: share the expenses of a flight among unrelated fellow travelers and slash the cost of charter. But flight sharing, or per-seat charter, has proved difficult to translate into a workable model for travelers or charter entities. Witness the 2008 demise of DayJet, the Florida-based air-taxi startup.
February 1, 2010
Has there ever been a better time to be a charter customer? Rates have declined significantly and aircraft availability is unfettered. Yet some charter operators are advising regular customers that now is the time to consider buying an aircraft, and more charter users are seeking acquisition advice on their own, according to some charter companies.
February 1, 2010
We all have plenty of operators to choose from when we need to book a charter flight. I stay loyal to the ones that do the best overall job for me. I might not fly with them often, but when I need an airplane in their part of the country, they're the ones I call.
December 1, 2009
"Empty legs," the so-called repositioning flights that have no passengers, represent a growing marketplace of bargain charter opportunities, and it's easy to see why. Many charter flights carry only crew because the aircraft is on its way to pick up travelers or going somewhere empty after dropping them off.
August 1, 2009
Corporate aviation has been hit particularly hard by the economic downturn. But the charter field may do relatively well, according to some industry insiders, as business jet travelers seek less costly alternatives to fractional jet shares and ownership of whole aircraft.
June 1, 2009
As the recession drags on, charter operators are facing continued declines in business. The good news for passengers is that a growing number of these operators are launching fixed-price flights and other programs aimed at bringing back customers. The deals that can be had confirm it's a classic buyer's market.
April 1, 2009
One of the easiest ways to book a charter flight is through a broker. Charter brokers often have access to hundreds of aircraft and can offer services such as catering and ground transportation that small charter operators aren't able to provide. The downside, however, is that of the hundreds of brokers in existence, no two have the same safety standards or business ethics.
""Corporate executives should be your core business . . . You need [account executives who are] comfortable with the kind of boardroom leaders that see Learjet as a tool, not a frivolous extravagance for movie stars and their pets." "
-Advertising executive Pete Campbell to a Learjet executive on the penultimate episode of TV's Mad Men series, set in 1970.

New York City's pulse can be felt every day in the opening and closing bells on Wall Street, in the constant daylight underneath Times Square billboards, in the serenity of a sunny afternoon spent relaxing in Central Park, in the Broadway theaters and on Fifth Avenue's famed shopping stretch.
New York City is also the capital of fashion and business, so it's no coincidence it's home to LIM College - Where Business Meets Fashion.
All this could be yours as an LIM College student. We invite you to learn a little more about New York City and discover how it could become your home, your community, and your campus.

Last week offered hope for science and strawberries, both. Three newsworthy events marked progress toward the slow crumbling of chemical industry influence on government. Each crack, however small, offers an opportunity toward food democracy, and the use of science in powerful service of the public good.
Once a year we all have an opportunity to recognize the contributions of the country's nearly 2 million farmworkers, and support their efforts to gain the dignity and rights they so deserve. Next Monday, March 27 marks the beginning of National Farmworker Awareness Week, a series of events and activities organized by Student Action with Farmworkers to spotlight these issues and honor the work of legendary labor rights activist Cesar Chavez.
Scientists have found that hot molasses could be key to controlling soil pests, allowing farmers to grow peppers and tomatoes in Florida without using the dangerous fumigant pesticide, methyl bromide. Ending reliance on methyl bromide has been particularly tricky in the sunshine state, where mild winters offer safe harbor for pests and sandy soils can make organic options a challenge. Nonetheless, innovative scientists and farmers are creating ways to grow food without pesticides. The March 2011 edition of Agricultural Research, published by USDA, has the story.
It's often unnerving to face multinational corporate capture of chemical policy and science. I certainly felt like I'd been kicked in the gut last December, when, after a diligent, multi-year review that actually kept science and the health of Californians as core commitments, chemical company influence won out as California legalized "one of the most toxic chemicals on earth" — despite the analysis and recommendations of their own scientists and overwhelming public opposition.
On Tuesday, February 22, the California Assembly's Health and Environmental Safety and Toxic Materials committees will hold a joint oversight hearing examining the rushed circumstances under which methyl iodide was registered for use as a fumigant in California's strawberry fields.

Your review should be posted within seven days. Intermetiate buy for year ahead. Written By Leo, Arlington, MA on Friday, December 28, 2012 The main reason for purchase was to replace similar and expensive previous camera bought three years ago that became duty inside that affects image. The decision process are come to 10 zoom, full HD movie and modest price. The camera is OK by the characteristics. YouTube video is made by the camera (same defects in sky image are resulted by file conversion process - not camera performance that is fine). Enclosed software for editing movie should be more intuitive like Windows Movie Makers. Pros: Modest price, good size. Cons: Switch on button demands about half a second push that in some urgent scenes could cost missing interesting cadre. Noticeable sound during zooming at movie mode. Focus is lost sometime during zooming at movie mode. Focusing speed could be faster in general. 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Love it. 2 out of 5 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No video recording out of focus when zooming in and out Written By Vic, Northern, CA on Friday, May 18, 2012 I got this camera less than two weeks ago right before Mother's Day, and I have used it to video record two indoor events the past two evenings. Both times the video is out of focus when zooming in and out even though I set it to Full Time AF in video recording settings. Let say I zoomed to position 5 and the video was perfectly focused. I then zoomed in to position 4, but now it was out of focus. When I zoomed in more to position 3, it was focused again. If I zoomed out to position 6, it was out of focus. If I zoomed out more to position 7, it was then clear again. There is something not working with the focusing mechanism of this camera. Besides focusing, the camera can't operate while it's charging. You can't watch the recorded video or pictures while it's charging. My older Canon can do that, and that model was 2+ years old. I am returning this camera. Pros: nice set of features Cons: out of focus video recording when zooming in and out 7 out of 11 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Great features, but mine was flawed Written By Louis, Houston, TX on Friday, April 27, 2012 My review of this camera will be simple and short. I believe I received a defective camera. Every picture I took was either slightly out of focus, or severely out of focus. I took around 50-60 pictures using different settings and only one was 100% in focus. The camera would also take photos when I didn't hit the shutter button. This was my first Nikon, and it will be my last. Pros: Ton of great features attracted me to this camera. The size is nice. Not to big and not so small. The buttons are easy to access. Cons: Besides not working properly, I feel the scroll wheel is too sensitive. 14 out of 18 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

The LCD monitor has approximately 98% horizontal and vertical coverage in the shooting mode and approximately 100% coverage in playback mode. There is no separate viewfinder on the camera. Image Sensor: The Coolpix S6300 features a 1/2.3" CMOS image sensor with a total pixel count of approximately 16.79-million pixels. The effective pixel count is 16.0-million. Optics: The Coolpix S6300 digital camera uses a NIKKOR ED glass lens for superb image quality. Every aspect of the lens manufacturing process is controlled by Nikon. The Nikkor ED lens is designed for the specific camera and image sensor combination. The Coolpix S6300 uses a 10x wide-angle optical zoom lens, that is equivalent to a 25-250mm lens in 35mm photography. Coupled with the 4x digital zoom, the camera's total zoom capability is 40x. The angle of view is equivalent to that of approximately 1000mm lens (35mm format). Vibration Reduction: The Nikon Coolpix S6300 offers an optical Vibration Reduction (VR) Stabilization System. Vibration Reduction reduces blurring caused by camera shake when shooting. Slight hand movements causes blurred photos, especially when shooting at slow shutter speeds or when zoomed in. The camera utilizes lens shift technology to reduce the effect of camera shake. File Formats: The Coolpix S6300 records still images in JPEG format. 3D photos are stored in MPO format. HD and SD movies are recorded in MOV format (Video: MPEG-4 AVC/H.264, Audio: AAC stereo). You have a choice of seven still image size options and five movie options: Still Images: 16M: 4608 x 3456 (high quality 1:4 compression ratio) 16M: 4608 x 3456 (standard quality 1:8 compression ratio) 8M: 3264 x 2448 4M: 2272 x 1704 2M: 1600 x 1200 VGA: 640 x 480 16:9 12M: 4608 x 2592 Movies (Frame Rate 30 fps): HD 1080p: 1920 x 1080 (Bit rate: 14.8 Mbps) HD 1080p: 1920 x 1080 (Bit rate: 12.3 Mbps) HD 720p: 1280 x 720 (Bit rate: 6.1 Mbps) iFrame 540: 960 x 540 (Bit rate: 20.7 Mbps) VGA: 640 x 480 (Bit rate: 2.9 Mbps) Note: The maximum movie length for a single movie is 29 minutes, or 4 GB file size. Built-in Memory: The camera has a built-in 25 MB internal memory for storing still images and movies with sound. Recording Media: In addition to the built-in memory, images can be recorded onto SD, SDHC, or SDXC Memory cards. When an SD Memory card is inserted in the camera, the images are automatically recorded onto the card. When no card is inserted, the images automatically record to the internal memory. The camera can support 2 GB SD cards, SDHC cards from 4 GB to 32 GB, and SDXC cards of 64 GB and 128 GB. 3D Photos: The Coolpix S6300 can take 3D photos that are viewable on a 3D-compatible TV or monitor. Images are recorded at a size of 1920 x 1080. Recording a 3D image is a two-step process. After taking the initial picture (left eye image), a second picture (right eye image) is taken automatically by moving the camera horizontally to the right until the subject is aligned with the guide on the monitor. To play back 3D images, you will need to connect the camera to the TV via a 3D-compatible HDMI cable. Only the initial (left eye) image can be viewed in the camera's monitor. Shooting Modes: You can choose one of the following shooting modes: Auto Mode: A "point-and-shoot" mode with some user adjustments to suit the shooting conditions and type of shot you want to capture. Scene Mode: You can manually or automatically select a scene mode with settings optimized for the shooting situation: Scene Auto Selector, Portrait, Landscape, Sports, Night Portrait, Party/Indoor, Beach, Snow, Sunset, Dusk/Dawn, Night Landscape, Close Up, Food, Museum, Fireworks Show, Black & White Copy, Backlighting, Easy Panorama, Pet Portrait, and 3D. Special Effects Mode: You can choose from the following six effects: Soft, Nostalgic Sepia, High-contrast Monochrome, High Key, Low Key, and Selective Color. Smart Portrait: When the camera detects a smiling face, you can take a picture automatically without pressing the shutter-release button (smile timer). The Skin Softening option can smooth the skin tones in faces. Subject Tracking: For taking pictures of moving subjects. The camera moves the focus area automatically to track the registered subject within the frame. Continuous Shooting: In the continuous shooting mode, you can select in the menu from the following options: Single: One picture is taken each time the shutter-release button is pressed. Continuous H: Takes up to 7 pictures at about 6 frames per second while the shutter button is held down. Continuous L: Takes up to 6 images at a rate of about 1.9 fps while the shutter release is held down. Pre-shooting Cache: Makes it easy to capture perfect moments by saving images from before the shutter release button was pressed all the way. Captures up to 5 frames at a rate up to 10.6 fps. Continuous H 120: Each time the shutter release button is pressed all the way, 50 frames are captured at a speed of about 1/120 sec or faster. (Image size: 640 x 480) Continuous H 60: Each time the shutter release button is pressed all the way, 25 frames are captured at a speed of about 1/60 sec or faster. (Image size: 1280 x 960) Best Shot Selector: Camera captures up to 10 images while the shutter release is held down, and the sharpest image in the series is selected and saved. Multi-shot 16: Camera takes 16 shots at about 30 fps and arranges them in a single image of 2560 x 1920. Color Options: With the following color options, you can make colors more vivid, or save images in monochrome: Standard Color: images in natural color Vivid Color: to achieve a vivid "photoprint" effect Black-and-White: save images in black-and-white Sepia: save images in sepia tones Cyanotype: save images in cyan-blue monochrome Self-timer: The camera is equipped with a 10 second and 2 second timer for self-portraits. In addition, the camera can use face detection to detect human faces, and automatically release the shutter when a smile is detected (Smile Timer). AF Area Mode: You can select between the following AF Area Modes to determine where the camera focuses. Face Priority: When the camera recognizes a face (front view only), the camera will focus on the face automatically. The camera can recognize up to 9 faces depending on shooting and exposure mode. This is the default setting. Auto: The camera automatically selects the focus area (up to 9) containing the subject closest to the camera. Manual: You can manually select one of 99 focus areas in the monitor. This method is handy when the intended subject is not positioned in the center of the frame, and is relatively still. Center: The camera focuses on the subject in the center of the frame. Macro Mode: Macro mode is used for taking pictures of objects as close as 4". This feature is best for taking close-up pictures of flowers or other small subjects. Focus Lock: The Focus Lock feature is used to focus on off-centered subjects in the frame while shooting in Center AF mode. AF-Assist Illuminator: If lighting is poor, the AF-assist illuminator may light to assist the focus operation when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway. The illuminator has a range of about 6'-3" at the maximum wide-angle position and 3'-7" at the maximum telephoto position. You can turn this function on or off. Blink Warning Function: The Blink Warning function is available when you are shooting in Face Priority mode. When the camera detects that one or more human subjects may have blinked, the blink warning screen is displayed. The subject is framed by a yellow border, allowing you to check the picture and decide whether or not to take another picture. Exposure Compensation: You can alter the exposure from the value suggested by the camera, making pictures brighter or darker. You can adjust the exposure from -2.0 to +2.0 EV in 1/3 EV steps. ISO Settings: Sensitivity is the measure of how quickly the camera reacts to light. The higher the sensitivity, the less light needed to make an exposure. The camera features the following ISO settings: Auto: Sensitivity is set to ISO 125 when there is sufficient lighting, and raises the sensitivity to a maximum of ISO 1600 when lighting is dim. Fixed Range Auto: Select from two ranges in which the camera automatically sets the sensitivity: ISO 125-400, or ISO 125 to 800. Manual: Sensitivity is locked at the set value: ISO 125, 200, 400, 800, 1600, or 3200. White Balance: You can set the White Balance to Auto, Daylight, Incandescent, Fluorescent, Cloudy, or Flash. You can also choose Preset White Balance and use a neutral-colored object as a reference to set the white balance under unusual lighting conditions. Built-in Flash: The Coolpix S6300 has a built-in flash with a range of 1'-8" to 18' (Wide angle) and 3'-4" to 10' (Telephoto). You can choose from the following flash modes: Auto: Flash fires automatically when lighting is poor. Auto with Red-eye Reduction: Pre-flash fires before main flash to reduce red-eye effect. Flash Off: Flash will not fire, even when lighting is poor. Fill Flash: Flash will fire whenever a picture is taken. Slow Sync: Auto flash combined with slow shutter speeds. In-Camera Red-Eye Fix: If the camera detects red-eye after the pre-flash has fired, advanced red-eye reduction processing is used to further reduce red-eye, slightly increasing the time required before the next picture can be taken. AF Modes: When shooting still images or movies you can choose between two auto-focus modes: Single AF: The camera focuses when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway and locks at this position during recording. Full-time AF: The camera constantly adjusts focus, even when the shutter-release button is not pressed. Voice Recording: Audio voice memos for pictures can be recorded over the camera's built-in microphone and played back over the unit's built-in speaker. Memos can be up to 20 seconds in length, and are stored as WAV files. Play, Edit and Print Functions Copy: You can internally copy images and voice recordings between the camera's internal memory and an inserted SD card. Slide Show Playback: View pictures in the internal memory or on the memory card in an automatic slide show with 2, 3, 5, or 10 seconds between pictures. If desired, you can loop the slideshow so it will continuously play. Maximum slide show duration is 30 minutes without operation. Thumbnail Playback: During playback, you can view multiple thumbnail images (4, 9, or 16) at a time. While these "contact sheets" are displayed, you can use the multi-selector to highlight individual pictures. Highlighted pictures can be deleted, if desired. Calendar Display: This feature displays a calendar allowing you to select and view pictures taken on the same date. Playback Zoom: During playback, you can enlarge a still image up to 10x. Once the image is zoomed, you can use the multi-selector to scroll around to non-visible portions of the image. You can record a new picture of the cropped image by pressing the shutter button. Rotate Image: Recorded pictures can be rotated 90-degrees clockwise or counter-clockwise on the unit's LCD screen. Editing Picture: You can use the Coolpix S6300 to edit recorded pictures in-camera and store them as separate files. You can choose from the following editing functions: Quick Retouch: Quick Retouch can be used to easily create retouched copies in which contrast and saturation have been enhanced. D-Lighting: D-Lighting can be used to brighten dark or backlit subjects. While playing back an image, you can select the D-Lighting function, apply it, and save the corrected image without harming the properly exposed areas of the image. Skin Softening: The camera recognizes faces in pictures and creates a copy with softer facial skin tones. Filter Effects: You can apply the following effects: Soft, Selective color, Cross Screen, Fisheye, Miniature Effect, and Painting. Small Picture (Resizing): You can create a small copy of a recorded image. The copy will be stored as a JPEG file with a compression ratio of 1:16.

JOHNSONBURG – Following Gov. Tom Corbett's announcement of the budget on Tuesday, Feb. 7, Johnsonburg Area School District Superintendent Dennis Crotzer expects the district to not receive new revenues for the upcoming year.
"Mrs. [Patricia] Calkins and myself are studying the changes on how the funding from the State will come to the school district," Crotzer said.
"I believe we will not be receiving any new revenues, but again we must study the changes more thoroughly.
"We will continue to do everything possible to provide a quality education for our students even if the funding is decreased."
Crotzer said the school district will continue to do the job they have always done.
"It will just be a little difficult with the funding the way the State is," Crotzer said. "They [state government officials] are moving line items and everything else so it is a little hard to get a hand on it right now, but we are working on it and we will keep the board informed of what our outcomes from that are."

Step 1: Materials and tools
You need a copy of the template (I work to A4), a cocktail stick, scissors and a glue-stick to make each catapult (though sticky tape may be useful for battle-field repairs). A cutting mat is a lot of help if your work bench is a s rough as mine (my mat is marked in 1cm squares, which gives you an idea of the sheer size of this great weapon).
New for 2009, at no extra cost! A redrawn PDF file of the template is now attached to this step!
The ammunition can be anything that will fit in the catapult's bucket - paper balls, the rubbers off pencils. I shot Tic Tacs at my class - if they caught them before they hit the floor, they ate them.
A pad of paper towel or modelling clay will stop you skewering yourself when you poke the necessary holes in the paper.
Full personal safety precautions can be seen in the video in step five.
As a very bored Chemistry undergraduate, this was really fun to make!
What, in class??
Did you shoot the lecturer?
That's cool, thanks for posting a picture!
It's the sort of thing they stick olives on in drinks. In the UK, they're sold in boxes of a hundred for a few pennies at supermarkets.
However, if you have a toothpick, and it's long enough, by all means use it.
A couple of comments about my build. Here in the US I printed it out at 95% onto card stock, 35 lb paper instead of 20 lb copier paper.
I 'score' my crease lines with a single heavy pass with a ball point pen and a steel ruler as a guide.
I rough cut the pieces with a pair of scissors and finished them off with a sharp utility knife, steel ruler and a plastic cutting board.
I used a white school glue applied to the tabs with a small paint brush.
I folded most of the creases with the lines inside to make a cleaner model. Except for the throwing arm, needed the Instructables.com writing on the outside.
It's the PDF of the full project that is restricted to pro members.
Kiteman, I'm going to put a mod on my catapult and perhaps make an 'ible for it, but I will point out that it is merely a mod, and that your genius is the cause for this amazing work of art :D
Today my physics teacher took the suggestion of making these in class. He had the whole class making their own catapult so we could learn more about projectiles.
Thank you so much Kiteman! and thank you instructables!
Are you telling me that somebody can print this thing out in one, constructed piece now??
That is so abso-awesomely-lutely cool!
As soon as somebody does this, please post up a photo, maybe even a video of it in action??
Thanks for that. Unfortunately, I have a new computer, and did not re-install the, er, borrowed software I used to draw those templates. I'll just have to rely on observant users like yourself.
When school stopped using Corel, I couldn't renew my home license to install a copy on my new PC.

Centennial Park will once again become a center for musical performances with the return of weekly music series Musicians Corner, which kicks back off on Saturday, May 7.
The lawn party was inspired by London's Speakers' Corner and is an effort to provide musical diversity in a free, outdoor setting.
Sarah Buxton, Andrew Ripp, The Westbound Rangers, Dara Tucker and Marie Hines will perform at the kickoff event for the second season, with music starting at 3 p.m. Other performers scheduled to appear in May include the Wooten Brothers and Darnell Levine.
Food vendors will provide snacks and charities will raise awareness for a variety of causes each week at Musicians Corner events, which will also feature a mix of child-friendly activities.
More performers are being added to the official lineup; details can be found at MusiciansCornerNashville.com.
