I want to "delete" some friends from Facebook without them noticing. Is that possible? Is possible at least to hide them from Facebook chat?
If you remove someone as a friend they will not be notified, but they may notice that their friend count went down and that you are no longer on their list of friends.
To hide someone from Facebook chat, see http://webapps.stackexchange.com/questions/1169/how-do-i-stop-someone-from-seeing-me-on-facebook-chat/1173#1173.
To hide their updates from your News Feed, move your mouse over one of their updates in your News Feed and click on the X that appears to the right; then click the Hide button. Alternatively, when the News Feed is set to Most Recent, scroll to the bottom of the page and click Edit Options and type their name in the Hide box.
To hide your updates from their News Feed, go to Account » Privacy Settings » Customize Settings and change Posts by me to Customize. In the Hide from these people box enter the person's name or a friend list.
You can also alter other Privacy Settings to make these people similar to non-friends. Go to Account » Privacy Settings » Customize Settings and change each setting that is set to Friends Only. Choose Customize and in the Hide from these people box enter a name or friend list. If you do not allow them to see wall posts by friends then they will not be able to post on your wall either; they may notice that if they go to your profile. They may also notice if you do not allow them to comment. If you have some of your Basic Directory Information or album settings set to Friends Only then you may want to update those settings as well. Use the Preview My Profile button and enter their name if you want to verify what they will be able to see on your profile. However, it sometimes takes some time (a few hours) for changed settings to propagate.
Unfortunately it is not possible to revoke all of their friend privileges through the Privacy Settings. For example, they will still be able to tag you in their photos unless you remove them as a friend.
If by "without them noticing" you mean that they are not notified, then you can go ahead and unfriend them. They will not be alerted in any way that you unfriended them.
But if you meant that you want them to see you as one of their friends still, then you can use friend lists to hide or show exactly what you want to specific groups of people. Here is a link about friend lists and how they work in chat. You can be "offline" for a specific group of people, while remaining as online for everyone else.
mvdavid7 lists what I would consider to be the best solutions - either deleting them or putting them on a list which you turn off in chat. If you do chose to use lists to control access, I highly recommend that you read Engadget's guide to controlling your facebook privacy using lists. It goes into a lot more detail about how to use friend lists to fine-tune your privacy settings so that only the people you want to see something can see it.
One thing to note about just blocking a user is that while they won't be notified, they will notice if they go to send you a message or poke you or whatever, because you'll no longer be on their friends list. This can become awkward if they later approach you about it and start yelling at you about how rude it was to unfriend them - yes, this has happened to me. So, I've found that creating a friends list called "Annoying people I want to go away but can't remove" OWTTE, then setting pretty much every privacy setting to deny them. This will prevent them from seeing anything or bothering you, but you'll technically still be "friends" (if you can call it that).

Citi's CEO Is Keeping Score
Four months after taking over as chief executive of Citigroup Inc., C -0.61 % Michael Corbat is putting his stamp on the company with a simple formula: You can't manage what you can't measure.
At a gathering of 300 executives last month at a Hilton Hotel in East Brunswick, N.J., Mr. Corbat proposed a slate of new, more-rigorous ways to track both the performance of individual executives and the third-largest U.S. bank as a whole, said people who were there. His approach includes score cards that will rate top managers across the New York company in five categories.
"You are what you measure," Mr. Corbat told the gathering.

Banking executives like to think of their job as a delicate dance between serving clients, selling products and making money—for the company and for themselves. Adding to that mix, Mr. Corbat wants to more-closely track how executives perform against their financial plan. "You said you would do this. Did you?" was how one executive described Mr. Corbat's approach.
The quantitative focus is the sharpest sign yet of how Mr. Corbat is likely to differ from his predecessor, Vikram Pandit, who was forced out by the board in October after a series of mishaps. More clues to Mr. Corbat's thinking are likely to come Tuesday, when he is scheduled to speak to analysts and investors at a financial conference in Boston hosted by Citigroup.
The initiatives are designed to bring more accountability and discipline to a company that has been considered by regulators, politicians and some investors as too big to manage after it required $45 billion in government aid to stay afloat during the financial crisis.
Mr. Corbat isn't alone in making greater operational efficiency a priority. Antony Jenkins, chief executive of Barclays PLC, has adopted a similar strategy as an antidote to the slow economic growth that is crimping industry profits.
And New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who dined with Mr. Corbat during the recent two-day summit, also subscribes to the philosophy, popularized by Peter Drucker, the management guru, that to manage something, you must objectively chart progress against stated objectives, according to people familiar with his thinking.
Mr. Corbat is expected to unveil quantifiable targets that will allow analysts and investors to more-easily gauge the company's performance, said the people familiar with the plan. Those goals are expected to be similar to ones outlined in a new executive compensation plan that grades performance based on return on assets and tangible common equity, the people said.
Citigroup has had a mixed track record of making good on goals in the past. It exceeded a target set in 2010 of boosting assets from continuing operations by 5% a year, but fell well short of another benchmark that would have required a return on those assets of 1.25% to 1.5%. In 2012, the return was 0.85%.
Citigroup has run into problems when former chief executives set goals that led to excessive risk-taking. Sanford Weill, who presided over the 1998 merger that created the company and served as chairman and CEO through 2003, famously promised to double the company's earnings every five years. Charles Prince, his handpicked successor, focused on raising market share, said people who worked with him.
"Improper incentives lead to improper behavior," said Mike Mayo, an analyst with CLSA Crédit Agricole Securities. "The most important job of the CEO is to make sure the right incentives are in place."
The 52-year-old Mr. Corbat is hoping to instill the right incentives through the use of score cards that will grade the 50 or so top executives based on a set of weighted goals from five categories: capital, clients, costs, culture and controls. The highest score is 100%; the lowest is minus 40%, said people familiar with the plan.
"The concept is a good one, but it's important not to measure every widget, because the numbers aren't going to tell you the whole story," said Cliff Rossi, a former Citigroup risk officer who is now a Tyser Teaching Fellow at the Robert H. Smith School of Business at University of Maryland.
Most large financial companies use some type of metrics to gauge their progress. Under Mr. Pandit, Citigroup used score cards for some departments, but not others. Mr. Corbat intends to make their use more consistent across the entire company. Mr. Corbat declined to comment.
Mr. Corbat's plan to roll the score cards out to all divisions has raised objections from some executives who view the strategy as too much of a "one-size-fits-all" approach, said people familiar with their thinking.
They have argued that technology, legal, risk-management and other divisions don't lend themselves to this type of measurement, these people said.

That One Time I Screwed Up Christmas.
This post has nothing to do with DIY. And as easily as I could have screwed Christmas up with my "Just let me paint behind the tree…No, you dont need to move it…" BAM! Buzzzzz! Darkness. I did not do that this year. What I did do was much worse.
You all have had a chance to "meet" Court right? He is the best husband in the world. We are quite the pair.
I like to consider myself a thoughtful gift giver. I put a TON of effort into the planning and thinking, and thinking and planning. And sometimes (like last year) it pays off.
Sometimes it doesnt.
Let me plead my case.
Court REPETEDLY says and I quote "All I want in this world is a clean house."
So being the loving and thoughtful wife I am this is what I gave Court for Christmas:
For those unfamiliar with my girl Zoila she is the housekeeper on Flipping Out and is one of our favorite people in the entire world.
As he unwrapped it I exclaimed "We are getting a cleaning lady!!"
To say he was not happy is a slight understatement.
Apparently Court thought he was getting a gun. (Which I would never buy for him because he is so picky.) Basically it was a lose/lose situation.
So have you ever had a great gift backfire? Tell me all about it!
Love Your Guts, Mandi

- abstract
In financial markets, professional traders leverage their trades because it allows to trade larger positions with less margin. Violating margin requirements, however, triggers a margin call and open positions are automatically covered until requirements are met again. What impact does margin trading have on the price process and on liquidity in financial asset markets? Since empirical evidence is mixed, we consider this question using experimental asset markets. Starting from an empirically relevant situation where margin purchasing and short selling is permitted, we ban margin purchases and/or short sales using a 2x2 factorial design to a allow for a comparative static analysis. Our results indicate that a ban on margin purchases fosters efficient pricing by narrowing price deviations from fundamental value accompanied with lower volatility and a smaller bid-ask-spread. A ban on short sales, however, tends to distort efficient pricing by widening price deviations accompanied with higher volatility and a large spread.

According to the Wikipedia article on swans, swans are mostly monogamous but may sometimes separate, particularly after a "nesting failure". What "nesting failure" may mean is not entirely clear to me. Does it mean that they they have literally failed to build a physical nest? Or is it that they have failed to produce offspring? Or is it something else entirely?
Apparently it refers to the inability of nesting the eggs, because the nest was somehow destroyed, or environmental conditions were unfavourable.
I found a few examples pointing in this direction:
The Trumpeter Swan page on the Yellowstone National Park websites reports that:
From the abstract of: Nesting Ecology of Bewick's Swans on Vaygach Island, Russia - Syroechkovsky et al., Waterbirds, 2002
From this article:
Reproductive Success of Exotic Mute Swans in Connecticut - Conover et al., The Auk, 1999 (PDF)
Actually, nesting failure means that nesting trial fail before offspring could even leave the nest. In case of precocial species (where chicks leave nest immediately after hatching, like swans) it means that eggs was destroyed or parents abandoned nest, as @nico point out. In case of altricial birds (offspring stay in nest) nesting failure may also mean that all nestlings died before leaving nest.
for example among House wrens (Belles-Isles & Picman 1986):

Useful new technology and features make this update to Sony's full-frame compacts look mighty tempting.
Claiming "world's smallest" honors, the new Cyber-shots are only 102mm wide but have 24-720mm lenses and one even has a pop-up viewfinder.
A nice choice if you're looking for an advanced compact with class-leading video capabilities, the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 IV is a little expensive if you just want a good camera for shooting stills.
One of the first implementations of the company's new stacked CMOS technology confers some useful benefits.
At IFA 2014, Sony announced a second round of its lens-style QX-series cameras that use your smartphone's screen for their viewfinder and controls.
The Sony Cyber-shot RX100 III is an overall great camera that delivers significant improvements over the RX100 II, but not everyone will think it's worth the extra cost.
Its lens, sensor, and LCD remain unchanged from its predecessor, but a new processor, Wi-Fi, and GPS keep the flagship megazoom from getting stale.
Basically point-and-shoots without screens and almost no physical controls, these Wi-Fi-enabled lens cameras aim to enhance your mobile photography.
The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-QX10 might be a fresh take on a point-and-shoot camera, but the design ends up being a bit more trouble than it's worth.
A new version of Sony's Cyber-shot DSC-RX1, the RX1R, incorporates a new version of the sensor without an optical low-pass filter.

Gooey Caramel Confection Takes the Cake in Crock Pot Contest
We love casseroles. We love stews. Ok, we pretty much love everything that comes out of a Crock Pot.
What we didn't know was how stunningly delicious a slow-cooked DESSERT could be!
"I just love baking pies, cookies and cakes," says Emily Hobbs of Springfield, MO. "I'm more of a baker than a cook."
Well, it turns out that she's also a veritable Crock Pot dynamo, creating fanciful sweet confections straight from her slow cooker. It's no coincidence then, that Emily has also been named Grand Prize winner in the Just A Pinch Crock Pot Creations Contest at www.justapinch.com! It was absolute love at first bite when we came face-to-face with her Dulce De Leche Sweet Potato Pudding Cake. Full of sass and class, this is one mighty fine dessert.
"It's a spiced sweet potato cake flavored with dulce de leche caramel, coconut and pecans," explains Emily. "It's delicious, easy… and yes, 'bakes' in a slow cooker!"
Now, I'd love to be able to tell you how well Emily's dessert keeps, but there was not a speck to be found after the Crew and I had our way with it in the Test Kitchen! We served the cake in small, individual ramekins while it was still warm and the caramel golden and sticky. We let French vanilla ice cream melt down over the top and, well, the rest is history.
Emily has had a passion for cooking since she was a child, an interest spurred on by the support of both her parents.
"They always cooked when I was growing up. My mom was more the baker, my dad the cook. The first thing I tried to make for them on my own was cinnamon rolls for Mother's Day when I was about 12 years old. They were undercooked and doughy and not good at all, but it got me interested," smiles Emily. "I started checking out library cookbooks. Now, I read cookbooks and food blogs all the time!"
In fact, Emily has created her very own cooking blog chronicling her many kitchen adventures. She prides herself on cooking with a sweet, Southern flair, and her delightful photography speaks to the outstanding quality of her food. Utilizing different tableware, backdrops and props, she takes great care to capture the true essence of her dishes in every shot. Perhaps her biggest tip for aspiring food bloggers is to snap your photos at eye-level; it makes readers feel like they're there and can just reach out and grab that perfectly iced cupcake or last piece of pie.
For winning the Just A Pinch Crock Pit Creations Contest, Emily wins a $500 Visa card to spend any which way she wishes. So, what's she going to do with her winnings? "I have a Kitchen Aid mixer but it's been broken since October," she laughs. "Maybe I'll finally repair it!"

WEIRTON - The Indian Creek softball team began the season on a good note Saturday afternoon at Weir as the Redskins defeated the Red Riders, 10-0, in both games of a doubleheader.
Indian Creek (2-0) won the opener in four innings and the second game in three.
"They are a very good team," Weir (2-3) head coach Dave Hinerman said.
Paige Geanangel won both games for the Redskins, striking out eight and walking one in Game 1.

INDIAN CREEK (2-0): Geanangel (WP, 6K, 0W) and Orr; Orr S; Geanangel D, RBI; Monroe HR, 3RBI; Webb S; Byrd S; Allen S; DeFallo S, RBI.
WEIR (2-3): Pratt (LP, 2 2/3 IP, 2K, 0W), LeMasters (1/3 IP, 0K, 1W) and Tate.
"It was a very good day," said Redskins coach Angela Penner. "It is a great day to open the season. I think the girls were excited to get on the field today.
"Paige was focused. She threw well."
Abby Orr recorded two singles and three RBI, Geanangel tallied two doubles, a single and two RBI and Maddie Rees delivered two singles and three RBI. Also, Hannah Webb had a single and an RBI, and Alexis Monroe added a base hit.
"We did have a slow start. We had to get our timing down. Once we got our timing down, we put the ball in play,"?said Penner.
"We haven't been outside a lot. Most of our scrimmages were canceled. We did scrimmage Catholic Central, but other than we were only able to practice outside a couple of times.
"I am real proud of the girls. They were on a mission today."
Geanangel pitched a three-inning perfect game in Game 2, fanning six.
Alexis Monroe belted a three-home run, Geanangel tallied a run-scoring double and Marissa DeFallo finished with a run-scoring single. Also, Orr, Webb and Cheyanne Allen all collected a base hit.
The Redskins scored five runs in the first and five more in the third to seal the deal in Game 2.
"They (the Redskins) do the right things at the right time," said Hinerman. "Their pitcher was overpowering."
The Red Riders played both games without a full complement of players.
"We have one girl in the hospital," Hinerman said. "They are running tests on her. Our shortstop was home sick with the flu. Our third baseman had to play shortstop. We had a freshman who has never played before playing at third. We had a freshman who has never played before playing at first.
"In the first game, the score was 1-0 in the third inning. We were playing them tough. Then, we dropped a fly ball with two outs, and they scored five runs after that. You can't make mistakes against a good team like that. We gave them some runs, but they are a good team. Their pitcher is superb.
"Abby (Pratt) pitched the first game. We pulled her in the second game for her arm. She didn't want to come out, but we have got a lot of games left. No game is worth injuring a player."
After two scoreless innings, the Redskins plated six runs in the top of the third inning before adding four more runs in the fourth en route to winning the first game.
Pratt took the loss in both games. In the opener, she struck out four and walked five.
Offensively, Kelly LeMasters singled for the Red Riders' lone hit of the game and on the day.
In the second game, she struck out two without walking a batter in 2 innings of work inside the circle. LeMasters came on and recorded the last out of the inning. LeMasters walked one while not striking out a batter.
Weir is scheduled to play at 5 p.m. Monday at home against East Liverpool.
Indian Creek is scheduled to play Monday at Beaver Local.
"We are going to take it one day at a time,"?said Penner. "We want to peak at the right time. We are going to work hard day in and day out. Today was a credit to the girls."

note: increasing PHP upload size is different from increasing PHP memory limit. You can learn to increase memory limit here.
Drupal's limits on upload file size are determined by your server's PHP settings (as well as Drupal specified settings that can be set at Admin > Site Configuration > File Upload). The default values for PHP will restrict you to a maximum 2 MB upload file size.
On the settings page for the upload module, Drupal calculates and displays the maximum file size that you can set based upon two PHP settings: 'post_max_size' and 'upload_max_filesize'. Since 'post_max_size' is the limit for all the content of your post, many people choose 'post_max_size' to be a multiple of 'upload_max_filesize' to allow multiple files to be uploaded, but this is not essential. The upload module limits the size of a single attachment to be less than either post_max_size, or upload_max_filesize, whichever is smaller. The default PHP values are 2 MB for upload_max_filesize, and 8 MB for post_max_size.
Depending on your host, changing these two PHP variables can be done in a number of places with the most likely being
php.ini or .htaccess (depending on your hosting situation).
For example, to increase the limit on uploaded files to 10 MB:
- Add the below to the relevant php.ini file (recommended, if you have access). Note that for some hosts this is a system-wide setting. However, for hosts running PHP as a CGI script with suexec (for example) you may be able to put these directives in a php.ini file in your Drupal root directory.
upload_max_filesize = 10M
post_max_size = 10M
- Add the below to your .htaccess file in your Drupal root directory.
php_value upload_max_filesize 10M
php_value post_max_size 10M
The PHP documentation states that the memory_limit setting also affects file uploading. Generally speaking, memory_limit should be larger than post_max_size. If this is an issue, see the page on how to Increase memory available to PHP (3 methods)
Drupal also allows/enforces its own size limits, independently of what PHP allows. These are found in Drupal 6 at "Administer » Site configuration » File uploads" ( /admin/settings/uploads ). In Drupal 7 size limit is controlled on per-field basis. The Drupal settings cannot be larger than those permitted by PHP, but may be smaller if you haven't updated them, so remember to check there also, after updating the php.ini.
Looking for support? Visit the Drupal.org forums, or join #drupal-support in IRC.
If your changing your php.ini and keep getting server errors
If your changing your php.ini, and your having troubles (server keeps throwing errors) using the examples above, remove the ; from your php.ini files so it looks like this:
upload_max_filesize = 10M
post_max_size = 20M
It was the darned semicolons that were doing me in. Thanks for the tip!
I did change the upload setting but Drupal could not access.
Hi. I'm using a free host (include Apache 2, PHP 5, MySQL 5).
I could not find php.ini file in my Drupal folder. I searched and http://forum.siteground.com/showthread.php?t=2144 told me to create a blank php.ini, I placed it in my Drupal root folder. I have set the value:
upload_max_filesize = 10M
post_max_size = 20M
First, it didn't work. In Upload module config page, I changed the "Default maximum file size per upload: " to
10MB and it showed me"
"Your PHP settings limit the maximum file size per upload to 1.46 MB.
Depending on your server environment, these settings may be changed in the system-wide php.ini file, a php.ini file in your Drupal root directory, in your Drupal site's settings.php file, or in the .htaccess file in your Drupal root directory."
Then, I went to edit the .htaccess file. I put
# PHP 5, Apache 1 and 2.
<IfModule mod_php5.c>
php_value upload_max_filesize 10M
php_value post_max_size 20M
I saved it and I changed the "Default maximum file size per upload: " to 10MB but it kept show me
"Your PHP settings limit the maximum file size per upload to 1.46 MB.
Depending on your server environment, these settings may be changed in the system-wide php.ini file, a php.ini file in your Drupal root directory, in your Drupal site's settings.php file, or in the .htaccess file in your Drupal root directory."
How can I fix it? I'm still a newbie to Drupal.
php.ini location in Ubuntu
In Ubuntu, the apache2 php.ini file is located in
To make it work, I had to change the parameters
post_max_size = 8M
upload_max_filesize = 2M
post_max_size = 100M
upload_max_filesize = 100M
there and then restart apache2 (sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart). Since I use not only Drupal but also MediaWiki (which also uses PHP for its file uploads and therefore has the same limits), changing this php.ini configuration file solved my upload problems for both systems.
i have same problem but still no solutions
I tried to fix as suggested above... could it be I am running to many CCK modules and there is sharing issues or something?
I figure I have configured simple gallery wrong, but I have double checked. I keep getting a
ERROR message like this when I try to upload:
An unrecoverable error occurred. The uploaded file likely exceeded the maximum file size (10 MB) that this server supports.
No matter what I do to the php.ini file or the file upload settings !
I have tried over riding with Tweaks.module also but to no avail
Please help, very frustrating.
I am using xampp and my php.ini file is sitting in the php folder.
Hi, I figured that there are
I figured that there are 3 control point. We forgot about the 3rd one - editor. I am using IMCE and --that is place where I increased the file limits and everything is fine. Now I can upload 16 MB and I have 1000 Mb users folder size.
To summarize, check:
1) php.ini file
2) Home » Administer » Site configuration » File uploads (/admin/settings/uploads)
3) Home » Administer » Site configuration » IMCE (admin/settings/imce/)
Hope it helps,
I'm running Drupal 6.16 and
I'm running Drupal 6.16 and logged in as the Admin, the following path is not available: admin/settings/uploads . Why is this? I see many references refer to this path, but it's not available.
The settings in my php.ini file has been increased, as well as, my "Maximum file size per upload" in IMCE (admin/settings/imce/) for my user account. I've also changed the File Size in the Content Type, yet it still shows as only allowing 8MB. Rebooted apache as well.
Any more suggestions for how to increase the file size for my content type?
Enable the Upload Module
Just enable the core upload module and you will be able to access that page.
PHP config might be split across two screens
I found that my WHM PHP config screen let me change one param - upload size.
I changed from 2MB to 40MB, but Drupal only moved to 8MB.
The other turned out to be behind a little tiny "Advanced" option on the main PHJP config page.
Works lovely.
I did change the upload setting but Drupal could not access.
Hi. I'm using a free host (include Apache 2, PHP 5, MySQL 5).
I could not find php.ini file in my Drupal folder. I searched and http://forum.siteground.com/showthread.php?t=2144 told me to create a blank php.ini, I placed it in my Drupal root folder. I have set the value:
upload_max_filesize = 10M
post_max_size = 20M
First, it didn't work. In Upload module config page, I changed the "Default maximum file size per upload: " to
10MB and it showed me"
"Your PHP settings limit the maximum file size per upload to 1.46 MB.
Depending on your server environment, these settings may be changed in the system-wide php.ini file, a php.ini file in your Drupal root directory, in your Drupal site's settings.php file, or in the .htaccess file in your Drupal root directory."
Then, I went to edit the .htaccess file. I put
# PHP 5, Apache 1 and 2.
<IfModule mod_php5.c>
php_value upload_max_filesize 10M
php_value post_max_size 20M
I saved it and I changed the "Default maximum file size per upload: " to 10MB but it kept show me
"Your PHP settings limit the maximum file size per upload to 1.46 MB.
Depending on your server environment, these settings may be changed in the system-wide php.ini file, a php.ini file in your Drupal root directory, in your Drupal site's settings.php file, or in the .htaccess file in your Drupal root directory."
How can I fix it? I'm still a newbie to Drupal.
Same problem - dead end
I too am having the issue of not being able to upload files larger than 8MB. The error message is
An HTTP error 0 occurred.
I have created a php.ini file with:
upload_max_filesize = 128M
post_max_size = 512M
And I added the following to .htaccess
# PHP 5, Apache 1 and 2.
IfModule mod_php5.c
php_value yadda yadda yadda
php_value upload_max_filesize 128M
php_value post_max_size 512M
(greater than and less than symbols removed by me so the IfModule lines would appear in this message)
I still get the same results. This happened all of a sudden about 4 or five weeks ago. Everything up to that point was running fine. I made no changes, nor did my ISP.
Seems to be a problem
This issue seems to be widespread. Are there any plans to fix this perhaps in a patch or new release? None of my users have been unable to use my site because of this, and everything that has been recommended has failed. I have even removed and re-installed Drupal.
Any input is appreciated.
Seems need an alternative way to link to files in content posts
I am affected by this issue like a lot of people. The problem resulting from the techs of your webhosting limiting the file size to upload via php. I have no problems uploading through other means, so it doesn't make a whole lot of sense as the admin of the site I'm operating. I can understand though why they may want to limit it.
My specific issue is in relation to the upload ability of the "FileField" component of the CCK drupal module, and therefore being able to insert into a content post a file playable with an mp3 player.
Now, if I had the option of instead choosing a URL where the file of my choice was hosted, such as the exact same place that files are uploaded anyway (such as "sites/default/files"), so that it wasn't uploaded at all through PHP and therefore wasn't subject to the limits of a server restriction.
I'd have no problems using an ftp client to upload all my files to that location and then using an alternative to "FileField" to simply specify which files in the folder I want to be displayed/accessible. It's not really an extra step since you have to do the upload anyway, and I already use an ftp client to upload drupal modules to try out. It's only a convenience to be able to upload a file via a content posting anyway.
I think I'll need to send off an email to the people maintaining the CCK module to create a component to add this functionality.
This article states that the
This article states that the maximum upload size is 50% of post_max_size but this issue and patch (http://drupal.org/node/104220) seems to have resolved that arbitrary limit. I've just sucessfully uploaded a 302MB file with a post_max_size of 384MB so it's must not be an issue anymore. Am I talking rubbish or do we need a correction?
...update, yes it was removed and I've corrected this page.
Increase upload size in your php.ini
After trying all of these sugestions with no results, I finally renamed my newly created php.ini file to php5.ini and worked first time. This may be specific to my hosting provider.
Worked for me
I also changed the "php.ini" filename to "php5.ini" and that fixed it!
Drupal 7
Seems in Drupal 7, you need only modify (or create and modify) the php.ini file in Drupal's root directory. Modifying the .htaccess file just bugged out.
Apache Restart
I have also had the above problem that my video upload field remained at 8 MB even though I changed it in Drupal.
I used the above help but as I am new to all this, I didn't know that changes to the PHP.ini file are not effective till
apache is restarted.
So I would just like to add this to this comment string.
Cheers, Karl
Can't pass 8MB limit
I also can't get past the 8mb limit. I've changed my php.ini file so both variables are set to 20MB. That raised the limit from 2MB up to 8MB, but I can't seem to get past the 8MB limit. does anyone know where this limit is coming from? I haven't seen anything in php.ini. settings.php or .htaccess
Using Drupal 7.0
Thanks a lot for any help,
8MB limit solved
I figured this one out finally. The default php.ini that I got from my host included the line post_max_size = 8M I added the line post_max_size = 20M like the instructions say, but I didn't notice that there was already a declaration in there. So if you're having the 8MB problem, triple check your php.ini file for multiple post_max_size and upload_max_filesize entries.
I know that sounds trivial, but it fooled me for a really long time.
default file
whre is the default php.ini file located?
That fix worked for me, in my
That fix worked for me, in my case default php.ini was in:
I changed the max upload size, but the limit stayed at 8MB until I did as suggested and searched for max post size, which was being set at 8MB.

Thank you so much Karl! That fixed it!
whre to find php.ini?
whre can i find php.ini file so dat i can change its values?
php.ini template
You can find a php.ini file in several places on the web. There is one available at: http://www.reallylinux.com/docs/php.ini
If you use that one,
post_max_size is on line 456
upload_max_filesize is on line 558
Hopefully "dat" helps :)
Perfect, PHP.ini
Thx Josh -
The edits in the ini file worked for me, I added these lines...
post_max_size = 10M
upload_max_filesize = 10M
... then cleared cache.
Do a find command
If you aren't sure where the file is located you can tried the following command:
sudo find / -iname "php.ini"
In my environment I found three places where the php.ini files is located:
I changed the one located in /etc/php5/apache2/ to increase the upload limit. It worked fine, no problems encountered, try it.
Restart IIS
I have three web servers that run Drupal (2 development and one live) and I just ran into this issue. They're all Windows boxes and changing the php.ini file did nothing until I restarted IIS.
I know this is a simple thing but sometimes issues like this are simple to fix!
If the server is hosted or in accessible, this may present a challenge and obviously doesn't apply to Apache.
For the record, I'm running
For the record, I'm running D6 and altering the php.ini files wasn't help, even thought it wasn't set anywhere else. Finally, in desperation, I added the settings to the .htaccess, and it worked fine. Not sure why, but hopefully it helps someone else

How to configure Drupal 7
Seemingly php.ini is set to allow 100MB uploads but Drupal 7 is telling me the maximum is 8MB.
How do I change the Drupal 7 value?
Paul Driver
Ilkley, West Yorkshire, UK
here its
Go to your content type from structure, then Manage fields of your type "e.g. Product", then press on Edit, change the value Maximum upload size of this field to 100 .
Still not working
I really hoped that would would, but alas not.

unable to increase file size upload
unable to increase file size upload
I am using xampp localhost. I am unable to upload files more than 2Mb. I followed some instruction at drupal.org and changed my php.ini setting maximum allowed size for uploaded files. Upload_filesize = 8M, before it was 2M, and it worked in phpinfo() it stared to show me 8M but still I am facing the same problem. Durpal.7.4 shows file limit of 2Mb. In .htaccess were exactly we should enter these lines upload_max_filesize = 8M post_max_size = 8M,
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thanks for this really
Thanks for this really helpful solution
After updating php.ini and
After updating php.ini and .htaccess to 20M, I was still having trouble. I didn't realize that in the content type, I also had to update the figure there to 20 MB. Once that was done, it worked.
This worked great on hfase, I was having a problem with Drupal not noticing the changes to php.ini, I added the statement above to my .htaccess file and restarted the server and now everything works fine. Thanks for posting this! I have a lot of ram so I usually give it around 512M
Also on Windows/IIS check requestLimits maxAllowedContentLength
If you are using Internet Information Server (IIS), also check that there isn't a requestLimit set in the web.config. Drupal will show that a larger size is allowed via php.ini, but large files won't upload.
Here is the setting to change, on my system it defaulted to 10mbs:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<requestLimits maxAllowedContentLength="10485760" />
Changed maxAllowedContentLength to 52428800 and 50mb uploads worked immediately.
I need to download 2gb .m4v video file what do i do
the changes in web-config file to download.
Solution of Increase Upload Size
One way to set upload size without changing php.ini file. If you donot have the access to the server to change php.ini file, upload size can be set through .htaccess file. By using these lines.
php_value upload_max_filesize 100M
php_value post_max_size 100M
It will set 100 MB maximum upload file size. I did it and it worked for me.
I tried to add your lines of
I tried to add your lines of code in my .htaccess file in the root folder of my domain folder but when i did that all that happened was a i got a 500 error when I reloaded the page. So what did i do wrong?
Use above mentioned lines after following lines:
# PHP 5, Apache 1 and 2.
<.IfModule mod_php5.c>
Note: Please remove '.' inside the tag after starting tag bracket '<'
tried all these-any other ideas?
i'm trying to increase the per file upload size on imce. i have increased it on the php.ini file, on settings.php and on .htaccess but it still is only showing 25MB and says that is dictated by my php settings. does anyone know how i can increase it significantly more? any ideas would be much appreciated. thanks!
there are imce settings in which profile are listed. Configure profile and set its maximum upload size to 0 or to let say 50 mb and then try.
phpinfo in cron
I struggled with this for a few days so I thought I should comment on how I solved this:
When you run cron you get the status page which shows you your php version and gives you a "(more information)" link to the phpinfo page.
This shows you the exact path to the php.ini file in use under "Loaded configuration file".
This is important because there may be several version of php and php.ini scattered around your server.
So now when you:
- ssh with your admin user account and "sudo nano php.ini" and
- change the post_max_size and upload_max_filesize vars
- and reboot the apache server,
the changes will actually take place and show up in the phpinfo and in Drupal
Hope this helps someone else
So, after reading through all these comments, without any luck of my own, I decided to reinvestigate. I was confused because I changed the
post_max_size and
upload_max_filesize over and over, and added the overrides to the
.htaccess file, all without any luck. My phpinfo() file continued to report back 8M and 2M (respectively) despite my numerous attempts to change it. Then I had the bright idea to see where the php.ini file was according to phpinfo(). Being on a mac, it reported back that the file PHP was using was located at private/etc/php.ini.
Then it all made sense: Running an iMac means my machine came with PHP installed (definitely a "Duh moment" for me), so there WAS another php.ini file lurking under the surface. Because it was in the "private" folder, none of my searches for the file returned the proper one.
SO! If you've made the changes in all the places you're supposed to have made them, and you're STILL stuck in the default settings, you may need to dig a little deeper.
Hope this saves someone some time and unnecessary aggravation.
ServInt VPS
For Drupal 7.
In my ServInt VPS I had to go to
/usr/local/lib/php.ini in the Drupal site directory and edit php.ini using
nano php.ini
Then find and edit
upload_max_filesize was already adequate.
settings.php did not need to be modified.
Page Load Speed Factors - php.ini vs htaccess
Is there a processing speed advantage to editing the php.ini vs the htaccess file, in terms of how fast the page will load? Or else is there a "higher failure-to-load-properly" rate for the htaccess method?
I want to maximize page-load speed (and avoid load errors), but I prefer the htaccess method if it works just as well.
Also, for the htaccess method, should the code go before or after 301 redirects? Or does it matter?
PS: I don't see why anyone would edit php.ini files if the htaccess will work equally well. Most of us have to edit the htaccess file anyway, and it is easy to find. Less risk of breakage, IMO.
php.ini is a private config file.. if you put a generic, may go down your site...
default php.ini
Using Acquia Dev stack ran into the same problem. Upload limit stuck at 8 MB whatever value I used in Drupal 7 or in php.ini file. Tried several computers. Then I realized that the default php.ini file has only one line related to upload size upload_max_filesize = 10M. The post limit line was not there, and also nowhere in other PHP version specific ini files. Adding this line post_max_size = 20M resolved the issue. Hope it helps.
Reboot your web server for new settings to take effect
Hi, I want to comment again that in many (perhaps all) host, just editing the php.ini will not change the settings, unless the web server is rebooted. This is because the web server only loads the php.ini on startup.
How to reboot your web server is going to be different depending on your host. In some cases editing your htaccess will trigger a reboot — you might even be able to open it, make no changes, save it, and trigger the reboot. On my host at MayFirst.org, using the member control panel to access the web server settings, click edit, and click submit without making changes, is enough to reboot the web server.
If you are making changes to your php.ini and nothing is happening, access your hosts help or FAQ system for how to reboot your server. Often this will be included at the end of any documentation on editing the php.ini. It varies by system, so you must do additional research.
An edit about this should be made to this page.
with nginx and php5-fpm
I modified /etc/php5/fpm/php.ini and restarted both php-fpm and nginx and found success, after many attempts as outlined in this thread. On Ubuntu 12.04, I ran::
sudo service php5-fpm restart
sudo service nginx restart
Apache LimitRequestBody
For us using Apache, we also had to change a setting in the httpd.conf file.
We commented out the existing line:
#LimitRequestBody 2048000
Some of you may have to restart their PHP interpreter
After you created a new php.ini and set your post/filesize limit restart your PHP interpreter to let the changes take effect
killall php-cgi
If you can't increase php.ini upload size
File Resumable Upload aka file_resup adds large files multiple and resumable upload to the File and Image field widgets.
It allows to upload large files (over 2 GB) even to 32bit servers and bypassing PHP's upload limits.
I'm using drupal6 and
I'm using drupal6 and bluehost. I changed the php.ini, both the upload and post size to 100M. Then I added to the .htaccess, the 2 codes for 100M. I tried changing php.ini to php5.ini. I also tried site config upload, but that told me to change the php.ini file. Im stuck, not sure what I should do. Any ideas? Im trying to upload bigger mp3 files to a sermon player (www.ssmjhu.com). However, every time I upload more than 10Mb, the file goes blank. Not sure what I should do. Thanks in advance.
Nevermind: We have multiple sites on the hosting site and had to change the other php.ini - worked after that. Hope it helps others.

Similar to beautiful maps example is there any similar collection for 3D maps?
Minecraft or at an wider vision: Voxel drawings. Have a great potential for real 3D maps.
Different from raster data that are 2D matrix, a collection of voxels are a 3D matrix and can represent volume.
I do a lot of work in 3D, especially landscape visualisation for planning proposals. The screenshot below shows an example. I have blurred out the on-screen coordinates and mini-map out of courtesy to the client (although this model has been used in public exhibitions so it is not confidential anymore). The mini map scrolls with the user and there are hot-keys to toggle elements of the model on and off, jump to pre-programmed locations and a few other tricks like split-screen views showing the model and real-world panoramic photos. The buildings are very simple in this view as simple extrusions are usually enough, but occasionally something a bit fancier is called for.
At the risk of being accused of advertising (and I respectfully hope that this reference will be seen as relevant in the context of this thread), I also produce hard-copy 3D maps (no computer required). The maps aren't physically 3D but use a special foil and printing technique to give the optical illusion of 3D without squinting. It's a bit difficult to show an example on the computer sadly as you loose all the 3D effect. You can see an image of an early prototype and get an idea of how it works here. Please be aware that what you see is a prototype and my main consultancy work has prevented me updating these for ages, until very recently and I was working on new (and visually improved) series just yesterday.
recce.at has a stylized 3D map that looks nice:
I think that OpenwebGlobe is very nice and promissing project. I do few maps using this library and it looks great and works quite fast IMO.
See for example Beijing and Hong Kong:
3D geology also but with GRASS GIS
Severals faults interpolated from boreholes datas (Midi fault in Belgium)
Geological map with fault surfaces interpolated from surface data and drilling data
Surfaces from boreholes data
I just want to answer here because I think our project fits somehow here.
We are mainly focused on 3D geology. Thus our maps might look different from what you expect. Behind the map is much more: a database for 3D objects (much like PostGIS, but still different).
This special model shows the geology beyond Dresden, Saxony, Germany:
There is also a model of Baden-Württemberg, Germany. But sadly we are not allowed to publish it:

COLLEGE STATION, Jan. 17, 2013 – Texas A&M University-- specifically its Department of Health & Kinesiology (HLKN) – has been named the "most visible research institution" during the last 20 years by the Research Consortium of the American Alliance for Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance (AAHPERD).
In support of researchers, AAHPERD hosts an annual national convention at which peer-reviewed research findings are presented. Since 1992, the organization's officials have kept track of the frequency of research abstracts published in the Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport by faculty at the top 20 high-visibility research institutions in America.
They report that from 1992 through 2011, the Department of Health & Kinesiology at Texas A&M had more than 200 research abstracts published – more than any of the top 20 high-visibility institutions.
Ping Xiang, a Texas A&M professor in the HLKN department, ranked fourth on the list of high-visibility researchers with 58 publications.
"Perhaps the biggest impact this recognition has on the department is that it reinforces the view that HLKN provides an environment that supports its faculty to become leading researchers in their respective fields," Xiang said.
George Cunningham, associate dean for academic affairs and sport management professor, ranked ninth on the list.
"HLKN has long had a commitment to engaging in meaningful scholarship that impacts the discipline and societal members. The results of this study really show the fruits of our labor and that the work in which we engage can meaningfully impact people's health and well-being," Cunningham said.
"The recognition will further strengthen the visibility of HLKN in the field of health, physical activity, and exercise sciences, which in turn will contribute to attracting outstanding graduate students," Xiang added.
Texas A&M was followed by Ohio State, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Wayne State and Louisiana State University.

Great Deal for Amazing games.
It's...it's just so good. FYI, with not much work you can get all of these working seamlessly on a Mac (I can vouch, at least, for Lion) so don't let that stop you.
Amazon has it from $100 to $120 and used for around $75?
Great collection, especially since it sounds like the enhanced edition of Baldur's Gate didn't actually add that much. The best part is that unlike when this collection was selling on Atari's site last year, it looks like GamersGate will keep it in your account indefinitely, so you can download it whenever you want.
Dang it, I bought that last week at a higher price. Damn you, gamer's gate! You've cost me $0.28 !!!!
Anyone know if I can use this on a Win 8 tablet?
Now if they'd just bring back the gold box series...
@first2summit: Those are probably for the old box sets of the game which are uncommon and, I'd imagine, desirable for collectors.
I played these games when they first came out and I think I still have the original, detailed manual that came with the game.
Those were the days when you could gauge the quality of the game based on the weight of the box...
I wish this actually came in a box... I collect game boxes. The downloadable games are nice and all, but I'd pay extra to get it snail-mailed to me in the actual box.
Picked this up myself last time the sale ran. Probably the best, dollar for dollar, gaming package I've ever seen. Torment alone is worth the price and I'm now running through a highly modded Baldur's Gate with loads of nostalgia. And Icewind Dale is the icing on the cake.
ToEE is... there. You don't have to download it.
Anyone know what to do to get Baldur's Gate to work on WIndows 7?
@necrom23: I have this set, and I haven't had a problem running it on Windows 7.
so what are these games like exactly? Diablo? or is like a board game on the computer?
@czarkingkaiser: They are computer role playing games that use Dungeons & Dragons RPG rule sets. Diablo is a hack-n-slash, action RPG. The difference is that action RPGs is mostly about the action first, and these are more traditional RPGs which focus more on story and role playing.
@czarkingkaiser: They can feel very similar to the first Diablo.
They're modeled after D&D and has a lot more to do with strategy, complex dungeons, and unique stories than action.
Character builds can be very in-depth and versatile
I loved these games and have most on CDs somewhere in my garage.
Snag a copy, you'll have fun.
@starmandeluxe: OK, I'll bite, what's involved in running this on my Mac?

Sencha Touch 2 PR2 (which is out now) is a "preview" - not yet even beta (which is due on Jan 13th).
Use this for client work at your own risk - you should anticipate that there may be some bugs in the framework, that the framework API will change over the next few months, and that the documentation and samples online may be scarce / quickly out of date.

Well, some how I finally got the production build to work. I did some various cleanup on some files and now it works. I wish I knew what made it work so it could help someone else.
21 Jun 2012 4:00 PM #12
totally stumped
paulh1971 I would be very interested to know what you did to get around this one...
referencing either testing.js or production.js for the microloader results in the following when doing 'sencha app build production':
TypeError: 'undefined' is not a function
how does one go about debugging or gaining more clues on the build process?
(referencing development.js works)
Looks like this same issue is being discussed here:
22 Jun 2012 11:05 AM #13
SDK version? Did you get any example in SDK in working state with production.js?
23 Jun 2012 8:44 AM #14
Hi rfdigital,
I couldn't get the production build to work even with development.js. Then I finally got that to work. At that point I didn't think about trying production.js again. Since you mentioned it, I just went and tried it. I am still getting the same errors you are. So not sure how to get around that because I know there are no javascript errors, because I have gone through the whole web app with the Google Chrome console and it is all clean. Also with the error, it said it failed to load application from file:///c:/inetpub/wwwroot/.... and to try setting the absolute url to my application for the url item inside app.json. I did that, but still got the error. Not sure if it is a bug or not, and not sure if it is really the right thing to do to leave it with development.js, but the web app is working great.
Hopefully someone from the development team can shed some light on this.

it must be bug!
Well, I tried sencha app create xyz ./xyz command to create new sencha application. Then I just change development.js to production.js. And I got the error. So it means it must be bug. I can get same error if I use testing.js, too.
Sencha development team,
Will you please confirm it?
Tool: SenchaSDKTools-2.0.0-beta3
1 Jul 2012 10:42 PM #16
I'm getting exactly the same bug. I can make a build with the development.js microloader, but then tap events stops working in my build.
Curious to see if its a bug!

Same issue, steps to re-produce
As fatangare stated, this issue indeed exists even with the initial application created with Sencha command line tools. Here are the steps to re-produce the build error:
- Have the latest SDK version (220.127.116.11) and the latest SDK tools version (2.0.0 beta 3 for Mac) installed.
- Create a new app while in the SDK folder:
sencha app create -n TestApp -p ~/Sites/TestApp
- Edit the index.html of the newly created app and replace the Microloader JS file with the production version:
<script id="microloader" type="text/javascript" src="sdk/microloader/production.js"></script>
- Build the app (the app folder is the working folder):
sencha app build -e production
- You get the build error:
[INFO] Deploying your application to /Users/XXXX/Sites/TestApp/build/production[INFO] Copied sdk/sencha-touch.js [INFO] Copied app.js [INFO] Copied resources/css/app.css [INFO] Copied resources/images [INFO] Copied resources/icons [INFO] Copied resources/startup [INFO] Resolving your application dependencies (file:////Users/XXXX/Sites/TestApp/index.html) [ERROR] TypeError: 'undefined' is not a function phantomjs://webpage.evaluate():7 phantomjs://webpage.evaluate():1 /Users/XXXX/Sites/TestApp/sdk/command/vendor/phantomjs/dependencies.js:36 Timeout waiting for the application to finish loading [ERROR] Failed loading your application from: 'file:////Users/XXXX/Sites/TestApp/index.html'. Try setting the absolute URL to your application for the 'url' item inside 'app.json'
EDIT: I tried to examine this issue further, and it seems that you actually should not replace the Microloader development.js with production.js. The build process seems to do that automatically. The script injected to the final index.html seems to match the production.js (at least it does not match development.js). This way the build can be finished successfully, but more issues occur when trying to open the produced app. The page (by default available at http://localhost/~username/TestApp/b...ion/index.html) fails because of the following error:
http://localhost/~XXXXX/TestApp/build/production/src/log/Logger.js?_dc=1344587694338 404 (Not Found)

Regarding the new keyword
Sorry to restart the thread here, but it is related. I saw it being mentioned that the new keyword must not be used in production building the sencha touch app. Unfortunately, I am forced to use it when integrating a sencha touch chart with my sencha touch application. Is it allowed in this scenario or should be changed? If so, is there a different way of creating the touch chart (without new keyword).
My code snippet is as follows:
var chartPanel = new Ext.chart.Chart({
themeCls: 'pie1',
theme: 'Demo',
store: 'myViewChart',
shadow: false, ... and so on
Thanks in advance.

Let $f$ be in $L^{1}(\mathbb{R})$, $\mathbb{R}$ the real numbers. Show that for every $\varepsilon > 0$ there exists $A \subseteq R$ , measurable, such that $m(A) < \infty$ , $f$ is bounded on $A$ and $ \int_{\mathbb{R}} |f| < \int_{A} |f| + \varepsilon$.
If we take $A$ as the support of the simple function which approximates $f$ in the $L^{1}$ norm then this has finite measure and it satisfies the other conditions. But I don't see why $f$ must be bounded on it. Any ideas?

From meth addict to businessman: bread maker's story highlights policy agenda aimed at changing lives
Dave's Killer Bread
Dave Dahl is most proud of his first creation, which he calls Blues Bread. The president of Dave's Killer Bread, Dahl's caricature — the burly, longhaired entrepreneur with his guitar — appears on every loaf. But this one, with its crunchy blue corn crust and a dark, grainy interior, was directly inspired by his love of the blues.
There is nothing small about Dahl's record in small business. After joining his family's Portland, Ore., bread business in 2005, Dahl introduced a line of wildly successful organic breads. Along the way he helped rebrand the company, now known as Dave's Killer Bread, driving employee headcount from 35 to 283 and gross sales to $53 million in 2012.
This would all be impressive if Dahl were a prodigy fresh out of Harvard Business School. But Dahl is not a prodigy. He's more of a prodigal son, having returned to the family business after spending 15 years of his life in prison.
Dahl's story reflects an unhappy slice of Americana that exploded over the last generation. When Dahl left high school in 1981, 555,000 Americans were serving time. When he left prison in 2004, 2.1 million were behind bars, according to Bureau of Justice Statistics.
This is one place where the U.S. is now truly exceptional. By 2009, 744 of every 100,000 Americans were incarcerated in jails and prisons, according to the International Centre for Prison Studies. That ratio dwarfs those of all all other advanced democracies.
A despotic regime like Cuba had fewer prisoners per 100,000 (510), as did a troubled democracy like Russia (505). South Africa had 310, and Singapore 237. The nearest advanced democracy to the U.S. was New Zealand, with just 194.
The impact of these high rates on crime is disputed, but the effect on state budgets is huge. From 1988 to 2008, state corrections spending nationwide grew from $12 billion a year to $55 billion, according to the National Association of State Budget Officers, making it among the fastest-growing state budget items.
Prison costs vary, but in New Jersey it costs more to keep a state prisoner ($44,000 a year) than it does to pay tuition, room and board at Princeton ($37,000), according to a report in The Atlantic.
As costs grew, states cut corners. By 2009 California's prison population reached 156,000, double its designed capacity, and prisoners were bunked in crowded gyms. In 2011 the U.S. Supreme Court ordered California to slash its prison population by over 30,000 prisoners or build new prisons.
Scrambling to control costs, policymakers have found that the financial fix lies in helping people like Dave Dahl. Fiscal hawks have, almost inadvertently, recognized that sometimes taking care of people saves money. Both top down and bottom up, public officials are now aggressively innovating to help keep people out of prison. How that gets done is still a work in progress, but it is a work now widely embraced across the political spectrum.
Coming home
Before he became a hardened criminal, Dave Dahl was an unhappy apprentice in his family bakery who needed help but didn't know it. "I was an extremely insecure teenager," said Dahl. "I had really bad acne growing up. I couldn't face myself in the mirror. My strongest memories of my youth involved contemplating suicide."
Self-medication began early with marijuana, cocaine, acid and alcohol. Then he discovered methamphetamines. "Meth is such a powerful feeling. You couldn't imagine anything else working like that, so you didn't search any further. Whenever I had a chance, I'd go back." Use and abuse led to sales and distribution, and he was soon heavily immersed in drug sales and property crime.
In 1997 Dahl was arrested five times in three counties and faced up to 20 years if he did not accept a plea bargain, which he did. Dahl would not see the outside of prison for seven more years.

Black Cats & Dogs have NO ADOPTION FEE!
did you know if you rescue a black dog or a black cat that they will waive the adoption fee? I was watching one of our local News stations in Long Beach California and they mentioned this topic. They said that black Pets tend to "not photograph well" and people are less likely to be attracted to their photos unless they meet them. One main reason is because they seem more sinister.
Memorial holiday is here and the weather getting hot…be especially Mindful of your Pets needs! FRESH water, please. Do not leave them locked in a hot car or garage.

Del for the moment. Comes back later.

saw your question on panoguide yesterday and did some research on DP-Review. Seams to be that 550D and 500D use the same body. If that is true, you cam use the data of 500D. I am a Nikonian, so I will try to help you around. I only own a M1-L.
For LRS = lower rail setting you have to use H1 from Wiki database. Now measure the distance from center of the plate mounted to the top of the lower rail to the top of the camera plate mounted on upper rail. You can move it down to the lower rail to measure the offset more quickly. Add this distance to H1 and you should have the LRS.
Easier: mount the camera without lens to M1-S, move the camera sideways till the lens release "Knob" on the lens flange is on top of the center of rotation of the Rotator. You can use a ruler or a laser to check. Or to try to place it through the viewfinder.
URS + upper rail setting is L1+L2 plus "basic rail set of NN rail".
I do not own a M1-S. That's why I had to review my answer to you. The center of QRS 40A on M1-L shows a rail setting of 20mm on M1-L upper rails MFR170/210. So you would have to add 20mm to Wiki's L1+L2.
Have a look to the upper rail center of your M1-S QR Clamp: Add this setting, may be 20 or 15 mm to L1+L2 from Wiki database. And test it with you own equipment.
Concerning NN5, add 13mm to H1 to get the LRS for NN5 using Wiki Database.
Right now there only seem to be very few M1-S users.
Hope this helps, feel free to ask.

hi Heinz,
Thanks for the detailed posting - but looks quite over-complex................
I would have thought setting up the M1-S would be the same as with my NN5 & NN3 in the past. I always use Smooth's thread over on the Easypano site: for aligning and has always worked fine. I'm setting up gear for a friend who's going to help me out with the photography side of my business, and thought someone might just have the settings availale straight off.
I only have a M1-L System, which is different from M1-S.
Because of a complete different design of M1-Line from NN5, NN4, NN3, you have to understand these differences in the beginning. In this case the camera is fixed via QRS-Clamp to the upper rail. This rail, and not the camera fixed to the old upper rails of NN3/4/5, slides into Rotation Center of the Upper Rotator. Plus we use a lot of QRS Clamps.
Just ruined my longer answer by doing spelling check, so I answer in a short way. Use Smooth method to fine tune LRS. Place the camera into the upper rail clamp, move forward till the golden ring meets the rotation center of rotator.The Sigma NPP is always around it.
During my setting tests for the new M1-L Line, have a look to my posts if you like, I found out that specially Sigma 8mm/f3.5 and Samyang 8mm/f3.5 show the upper rail in the pic. Thanks our friend DennisS who asked this, I tested if this shows in the stitched pano as well, in most cases the rail does not show. It does with Nikon D3100 and D5100 with all popular fisheye lenses 10.5, 16, Sigma/Samyang 8mm.
Anyway, I do not like something wrong in my pic. So I will use the New QRS 40B in combination with QRS 40A which comes with the panohead. Nick has designed it to be able to avoid the rail in the picture. You can move the upper rail backwards in the rotator clamp till it does not show beyond the Rotator QRS. Then, with this combination QRS 40A/QRS 40B, you can slide the camera forward on the rail - old system, camera moves - till the golden ring hits the rotation center of the upper rotator.
But test yourself, though the Sigma showed rail in most cases, it did not show in the stitched pano besides D3100 and D5100. I am Nikonian, so you have to test the combination yourself. Just take 4 or 6 around, stitch, and you know all about it.
That's why the answer was a bit longer, a new System, and all of us had to learn how to use it properly. But once you have understood the principals and to reed the rail marks, you will be happy with it.
Success for you, feel free to ask,

Sanders embraces new role
ANSONIA — Ansonia High football coach Tom Brockett was rather blunt with senior Saiheed Sanders, the would-be fullback for the perennial state power.
"Coach Brockett told me that I have to be a physical specimen, just like the previous fullbacks that played here," said Sanders.
At 6-foot-1, 195 pounds, Sanders believes that he is up to the task, but moving over from a backup tailback role to the state's leading rusher, Arkeel Newsome, in 2012 puts him in a challenging position.
"Being a fullback at Ansonia, a lot of the other fullbacks were shorter than I and they were geared to being a blocking back and all had great technique," said Sanders.
"There is a lot of pressure on me, and I know that I have to step up for my teammates and coaches. My coaches have done everything in their power to get me ready and have given me constructive criticism. As a player, who have to accept constructive criticism and learn from it."
Sanders paused, and came up with a surprising, yet
See SANDERS, Page 7B
team-oriented thought.
"I can't be selfish," said Sanders. "Coach Brockett made it perfectly clear to me on what is expected. The expectations are huge. This is no joke. I'll admit it. Last year, I struggled a little bit with my blocking but over the season, I grew as a player and definitely got better"
From a defensive standpoint, Sanders is also being heavily relied up as a linebacker, no different from last year when he emerged as a starter for the undefeated Naugatuck Valley League champions and CIAC Class S state champions.
That experience will no doubt will help him for this season.
He can also think back to his very start on offense in 2012, the night that Newsome was nursing an ankle injury and didn't play against Seymour.
"I didn't know that I would be starting until that night, just before the kick-off," recalled Sanders. "I knew that I had to step up. I had played tailback in Pop Warner, so it wasn't a big deal. I just ran hard."
With Newsome sidelined, Sanders ran for 107 yards and three touchdowns on only nine carries in a 47-0 win last October. That gave him a lot of confidence, especially when he would spell Newsome occasionally the remainder of the season and in the NVL championship game against Woodland (2-55) and in the three CIAC postseason playoff wins —Prince Tech (9-76), Hyde (3-11), and North Branford (4-14).
For the season, he had 68 carries for 604 yards, a very respectable 6.8-yard average, and six TDs. Individual numbers don't mean much to him. Being a good teammate and a role model for his little brother, Troy, an Ansonia Pop Warner player, does.
"Troy wears No. 3, just like me," said Sanders. "He looks up to me like I am a God. I want to make him proud."
Sanders wants to make his dad proud, too. William Sanders, born without a right leg, played football with a prosthetic for Ansonia Pop Warner in the 1980s and also two years for the Ansonia Chargers before an injury curtailed his career. A 1992 Ansonia graduate, Wililam Sanders said he owes everything to the late Jack Hunt, his coach.
"Jack was such a big influence in my life, and helped me in so many ways," said William Sanders. "So did the entire Ansonia program."
That's why he is so proud that his son is a part of the Ansonia tradition. Saiheed has heeded the advice of his dad.
"My dad always tells me that nothing is ever easy in this world," said Sanders. "He always tells me tio stay humble and be a good person. He says that if you work hard enough, good things can happen."

So I'm working on washers and I was given the equation of $$1/\sqrt{1+x^2}$$ and I am supposed to rotate the solid around the $x$-axis on the interval of $[-1,1]$. I know that I am supposed to use washers, but I can't figure out how to find the equation for the outer radius and the inner radius.
You have the functions $$f(x) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 + x^2}}.$$ The function is clearly defined on the interval $[-1,1]$. When you rotate the graph around the $x$-axis, then get a solid. If you try to draw a picture it might help to see that for a fixed $x$ the "inner radius" in this case is simply $0$. The outer radius is $f(x)$. So the volume is $$ \int_{-1}^{1} \pi f(x)^2 \; dx. $$ Unless you ask, I will let you find this integral.
Be sure you have a clear visualization of what you are working with (and trying to accomplish):
Rotate the region on the left about the $x$ axis to generate the solid on the right. (It is drawn to look hollow, but imagine it as a solid region.) The arrows on the left indicate some representative radii of the disks you get when you rotate about the $x$ axis to generate the solid.
As mentioned above, this is really using disks rather than washers since there is no hole in the solid of revolution.

Considered by many to be one of the finest games for the 2600, H.E.R.O. was released in 1984, the year of the great videogame crash. For that reason, it wasn't able to reach the same large audience as that of Activision's earlier masterpieces. The gameplay involves guiding R. Hero through caverns filled with flying critters, tentacles, moving walls, and other dangers. He's equipped with a jetpack, laser beam, and a limited supply of dynamite, all of which will be needed to negotiate a path to his ultimate goal, the trapped miners. Control is perfect, the concept is quite unique, and the gameplay is highly addictive. The game was originally programmed by John Van Ryzin. ( Atariage )
I want to thanks 1 billions times Guillaume Tello for his help in modifying & upgrading nearly everyday his MLC for me Without his help and his fantastic compiler, this game could'nt be done (..by me ).
I hope this game will arouse your curiosity and give a little kick for those who hesitate to code a game
Graphics & game design are converted from the Coleco version. Sprites are converted from the C64 version.
Actually, sounds are really basic, so sorry me..more to come soon !
Here it is my little baby with the help of the powerfull MLC

5 Ancient Acts of War That Changed the Face of the Earth
#2. The Dutch Put Themselves on an Island
Remember that little maneuver Alexander pulled during the Siege of Tyre? Well, picture a severe case of the exact opposite: Someone turning an entire country into an island at the drop of a hat.
There was a time in history that the Dutch were this close to being the most powerful country on the planet today. The only thing standing between the Dutch and Imperial British-level world dominance was the sorry fact that they were stuck on the European continent with a load of bad neighbors. Suffering from severe island-envy, the Dutch were desperate to get the hell off of the landmass, and their solution to this dilemma was the Dutch Water Line.
"That thing's operational!"
The Dutch Water Line was the brainchild of stadtholder Maurice of Nassau, who was a pretty important guy even though his job looked like a typo. The idea was to use Holland's natural water-bodies and low sea level to deliberately inundate the country, creating a natural sea-barrier whenever it was needed.
Nassau's successor put the people to work with shovels and pickaxes and by god, before long they had put Holland on a freaking island surrounded by shallow water. Then they planted a generous garden of mines, barbed wire and even animal traps that disappeared underwater once the floodgates were opened.
The Dutch Deflector Shield.
It worked, too. The Dutch won the Franco-Dutch War specifically because their little superweapon successfully stopped the armies of Louis XIV, thus forcing them to go home to their non-superweapon state, thumbs planted firmly up their own asses.
The French finished their own super-weapon just in time for the Germans to blow it up.
#1. The Mongols Weaponize the Bubonic Plague (Killing Half of Europe)
If there is one thing movies and real-time strategy games have taught us about warfare, it's that superweapons are pretty much the Konami code of combat. The Americans had the A-Bomb, the good guys in Red Alert had the Chronosphere and the Karen in Burma had a John Rambo so pumped with HGH he sweat steroids and crapped jawbones.
Up, up, down, down, left, right, left...
With that said, you can really tell a lot about a people by their superweapons, and when it came to the Mongols, it's safe to say they didn't pull any punches. Hell, even their conventional weapons were pretty damn sick. For example, when they finally won their long war with the Jin, the roads of Beijing were "greasy from human fat," and the air was saturated with a poisonous fume like Mordor.
During the Siege of Caffa in 1346, the Mongol armies of the Golden Horde unleashed a weapon of war utterly unmatched in terms of its consequence: Yersinia pestis. You might know it better as the bubonic plague. Or, by its much cooler name: Black Death.
The disease had been enjoying a nice retirement in Middle of Nowhere, Central Asia, until the advancing Mongols had to mess up the migration routes of small rodents. By the time the Horde reached the city of Caffa situated in the Black Sea, their own soldiers were already dropping dead from the illness.
But of course that wasn't their fault. Their people picked up some microbes as they were stomping across the countryside. It's not like they intentionally spread the dis-
Oh wait. They did. When they saw how effectively the disease took out their own people, they reportedly started loading their diseased corpses into catapults and launching them over the walls of their enemies.
The enemy in this case, the city of Caffa, was a major shipping port serving the entire region. People fleeing the invasion and raining corpses jumped in their boats and sailed off in every direction. By the time they drifted back to their ports throughout Europe with news from Caffa, their boats were true ghost-ships with Y. pestis patients literally bursting "like pinatas."
The world's population at the time the Mongols started flinging infected corpses was around 450 million. By the time the Black Death got through with them a few decades later, it was as low as 350 million. Their little biological weapon campaign killed one out of every four or five people on planet Earth, utterly changing the face of human civilization and creating the modern world as we know it.
Take a moment to reflect on that. In a way, everything you see around you is indirectly the result of one particular group of assholes.

Updated JsBuilder.jar with CSS compression and more YUI Compressor Options
I have a new version of the jsBuilder2.jar file. It adds support for the following:
1. Combination and compression of CSS files (same syntax in the json file as JS files...)
2. Fix a bug (what I consider a bug) when outputting a build where all files in the build directory and sub directories had the licenseText appended even when the files were not part of the build. The result, when building to the output directory a subset of the project was multiple licenseText includes.
3. Output filenames while creating the build so that JS errors that broke the compression could be detected. Once an error occurs, you can see exactly which file the error was in.
4. Added support for all YUI Compressor flags. Example:
java -jar c:\testproject1\jsbuilder2\JSBuilder2.jar --preserve-semi --nomunge --verbose --projectFile C:\testproject1\JSBuilder2\testproject.jsb2 --homeDir c:\testproject1\

I know the Dev team is also working on a new version, but it's nice to see that somebody has created a temporary intermediate version.
Can I request 2 other features:
1. Support a --deployDir flag to override the deployDir from the .jsb2 file.
2. Correct UTF-8 support (the license text should be copied AFTER the UTF-8 BOM marker instead of before).

Hi Condor,
I actually contracted out these changes on oDesk, cause I needed them for my project. Especially the licensetext (bug?) where all files in the output dir that were not part of the build would get the licensetext added over and over.
So, I can't make your requested changes myself. I can pay the guy would did the first changes to make these changes. I guess it might cost 20 bucks. Do you want to cover it and I'll get him to make those two changes? Sorry, I'm not able to do it myself

Is it possible to run onlythe YUI compression step? When I created a jsb2 project for my app, JSBuilder2 complains when I do not have a resources section, and it also seems to copy files by default from source to destination. I just want it to package individual .js into a minified file.

If I recall correctly you should be able to define a blank resources config, but it needs to be there, just leave it empty...

Hey brookd, since the JAR file itself is too big for posting on the forum, can you just post the JSBuilder2.java source file? I'd like to include your changes in my build as well.

Hi Greg,
I don't have the source, I can send you the JAR if you want it...
