The current status of equipment selected for use at the future Paralympic Sailing Competitions is as follows:
Single-Person Keelboat - 2.4mR through to the 2016 Paralympic Sailing Competition.
Two-Person Keelboat - SKUD18 through to the 2012 Paralympic Sailing Competition. Evaluations on equipment for the 2016 and 2020 Paralympic Sailing Competitions are being carried out.
Three-Person Keelboat - Sonar through to the 2016 Paralympic Sailing Competition.
The IFDS Equipment Evaluation Commission is being given the task to evaluate equipment for the Paralympic Sailing Competitions.
The IFDS Executive Committee has appointed the following members to the Equipment Evaluation Commission:
John Twomey (IRL) - Chairman
Vasilis Christoforou (GRE) - Sailor
Bernard Destrubé (FRA) - Medical Expert
Brian Todd (CAN) - Coaching Background
Reserve/Emergency - Heiko Kroger (GER) - Sailor
Bill Abbott - ISAF Representative
Members have been chosen based on skill, experience and contribution. The concept was to create a small group of experts rather than a large body of representatives each with their own special interests. From a communications standpoint, conference telephone calls, emails and occasional face-to-face meetings are expected. Funds are of course limited so communication via email is typically preferred. Any face-to-face meetings necessary are planned around existing events to minimize or eliminate any costs.

HRH The Princess Royal, IOC Member and President of the Royal Yachting Association, officially opened the £7.85 million purpose-built Weymouth and Portland National Sailing Academy (WPNSA) on 9 June 2005.
Set up as a 'Sailing Centre of Excellence', the Academy is located within the former Royal Naval Air Station, HMS Osprey, Portland. This site covers approximately seven acres and launches directly into the sheltered water of Portland Harbour. Immediately outside the harbour excellent sailing can be found in Weymouth Bay. The enclosed harbour will provide one course area offering flat water, with four other course areas planned in the bay in relatively close proximity to the shore.
The Academy's state of the art facilities include new pontoons, launching ramps and extensive development of onshore facilities. The dedicated strength and conditioning gym is fully tailored to the specific needs of the sport, for able-bodied and disabled sailors alike. The National Sailing Academy will be further improved as the Olympic sailing venue and benefit from the improved facilities the Games will leave behind, providing a state-of-the-art facility for elite training, competition and local community use. The venue will also be available as a training centre prior to the Games.
Situated approximately two and a half hours away from London, Weymouth and the south west of England has excellent road and rail links to London and the rest of Great Britain.
Competitors will be accommodated on a cruise liner in the bay, with Race Officials at local hotels.
A spectator friendly venue, fans will be able to line the shores of Dorset and east Devon to enjoy the sailing events.

I did some research last week and found that Nvidia cards (including the 600 series ) are supposed to work fine in 1.1 slots. AMD cards (including the 7000 series) are supposed to work but may not due to how they implemented their power savings (taking advantage of some of the newer PCI-E features.) I can't say for sure that any of this is true but it's what I've read from someone that supposedly checked with AMD/Nvidia people in addition to doing a few checks him/herself.

Louisville native Dotsie Bausch won a silver medal at the Olympic Games in London in team pursuit cycling. The Ballard High School grad started cycling when she was 26 and is a seven-time U.S.A. Cycling National Champion and two-time Pan American Champion. The former New York City runway model was back home last month, and spoke to kids at Holy Spirit School.
KENT TAYLOR: Did you have any athletic interests at Ballard?
DOTSIE BAUSCH: Not specifically at Ballard, I loved watching sports and I would always go to the soccer games and I was the water girl for the Ballard soccer team.
TAYLOR: How did you get into cycling?
BAUSCH: I started riding a bike in 1996, I was healing from, I was very sick with an eating disorder, with anorexia. As I was coming to the end of my therapy process my therapist said that if I wanted to start exercising again, she wanted me to try something that I didn't have any negative connotations with, or situations with, because with anorexia, part of it is extreme overexercise. I chose cycling because I had never done it. Really it was a healing vehicle for me, in the beginning. It wasn't for any competition reason, but it turned into that.
TAYLOR: How rewarding was winning the silver medal?
BAUSCH: When you get to the Olympic stage, those three medals are so coveted, and so rare. There are only 900 medals for 10,500 athletes. You just feel so proud up there representing your country, but you also just feel this incredible sense of excitement and relief and intensity from all that you've worked for and getting there. It was a big. mixed bag of emotions. Part of it was very surreal, the podium was a very surreal experience for me because you've watched it so many times, and for two straight days I had dreams that they were going to come in and take our medal and tell us that the timing actually wasn't working right that day, and that Australia had actually beaten us. It was the strangest, most surreal experience for probably about a week afterwards, and then it started sinking in.
TAYLOR: What is the message that you are trying to relay to kids?
BAUSCH: The kids are so impressionable and they're so excited about sports and they just watched the Olympics because it was just in August, so it's kind of fresh in their minds. When I come to schools and talk, I want to encourage them to try something that they might not otherwise try. For me, track cycling was not something that I initially wanted to try and it was something I was really scared of to try. I try to teach them that there may be an inner Olympian in them, in life, or real Olympics, sports wise, if they stretch and grow and try something that they maybe wouldn't have tried before and reach outside of their comfort zone.
TAYLOR: Will you be in Rio in 2016?
BAUSCH: I don't know that I'll keep going all the way to 2016, I might. I really have told myself that I think I'll decide about this time next year, and three years will be enough to get back into it. I'm still doing it some, but obviously not at that level and I needed some rest and my body needs to regenerate.
BAUSCH: I'll stay in the cycling industry, I love it, it's what I know. It's what I've done and where I've built a business and a personality. I've done a lot of commentating, post-Olympics, and I would really love to dive into that deeper. It's actually what I majored in, (in) college, was journalism.
TAYLOR: How much did the TV coverage in London help the sport?
BAUSCH: In Britain and Europe, you are dealing with countries that are mad for track cycling. I compare it all the time to how Europe feels about soccer, compared to the U.S. It was the hot ticket at the Olympics and if we had been in any other country, for example, at the Beijing Olympics, they had to pay people to be in the stands. The British are crazy mad for their track cycling. Will and Kate were at our event, Paul McCartney was at our event. It was like the hot place to be.
TAYLOR: How fast do you go?
BAUSCH: On the track our average speed for our event was about 57 kilometers an hour, or a little over 35 miles an hour.
TAYLOR: How much damage did Lance Armstrong do to the sport?
BAUSCH: Cycling is going through a tough spot with that right now, I think as a whole, and as a sport, I know that we're bigger than a single person. He made some poor decisions, we all make poor decisions in our life, none of us is perfect. The sport is very resilient, people are resilient.
TAYLOR: What do you do when you are not riding your bike?
BAUSCH: I do a lot of volunteering at our local animal rights shelter, I am a massive animal rights advocate, a vegetarian and very passionate about what we are and are not, and how we are treating our animals. I also love to just ride my bike with my husband, it's like our favorite thing to do together, and we love to go to the movies. We have threechihuahuas, two of them are blind. They're our furry kids.

Suppose I have a Lipschitz-continuous convex function $f:\mathbb{R}^n\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$. I wish to approximate it on the unit ball by a piecewise-linear function $g:\mathbb{R}^n\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ such that pointwise: $$\forall x : ||x||_2 \leq 1, |f(x) - g(x)| \leq \epsilon$$
Are there known bounds on the complexity of the piecewise linear function (i.e. the number of linear pieces needed) to achieve such an approximation, in terms of $\epsilon$ and $n$? I'm particularly interested in the dependence on the dimension $n$. Might the dependence be polynomial (or even linear?), or are there Lipschitz convex functions that require exponentially many linear pieces (in $n$) to approximate?

Students, staff and faculty will descend upon the land once again, armed with trash bags and gardening rakes, for Dakota Wesleyan University's annual Service Day on Tuesday, April 29.
This is the fifth year that Dakota Wesleyan has organized Service Day – a morning when the entire campus comes together to perform community service projects on campus and around the entire community, including the Huron campus. At least 575 participants are signed up for the day, with another 29 volunteering on the Huron campus on Monday.
"Dakota Wesleyan's values of 'learning, leadership, faith and service' are not a mere tagline, it is something that we incorporate into every aspect of our students' education," said Amy Novak, DWU president. "Through our coursework, mission experiences and community service we encourage students, who will be our future leaders, to constantly reach outside of themselves and into their community. Service Day was created around the time of our 125th anniversary as a thank you to the Mitchell community for its support spanning more than a century; it was immediately clear to us that this was going to become an annual tradition and a reminder of the value of the many partnerships we share between the university and the community."
The first Service Day included about 400 DWU students, staff and faculty. Despite weather, finals week and the temptation of sleeping in, participation has been admirable each year, said Diana Goldammer, director of student life and Service Day co-coordinator.
"We've had overcast, rainy weather for Service Day and still the students show up in their blue Service Day T-shirts, ready to take it on," Goldammer said. "Our wrestling team has picked up trash around Lake Mitchell every single year, even on the year when we had a downpour. They do it because they want to, because it means something to them."
In fact, the DWU wrestling team officially "adopted" Ohlman Street along Lake Mitchell.
DWU senior Amanda Hart, of Alexandria, has participated in Service Day all four years and as a member of the women's basketball team, she has benefited by the public support of the community throughout her athletic career and sees Service Day as a way to say thank you.
"Service Day is a great opportunity for DWU students to come together and help to improve our community, which does so much for us as students and the university as a whole throughout the year," Hart said. "It's our chance to give back and show Mitchell that we're willing to help them the way they have helped us. There are very few experiences I've had in my four years at DWU as rewarding as the Service Days I've been able to take part in."
About 1,000 man hours are projected to be spent in town on Tuesday, with project sites at: The Carnegie Resource Center, First United Methodist Church, the Abbott House, Dakota Discovery Museum, Cadwell Park, Lakeview Golf Course, Wild Oak Golf Course, the Pepsi-Cola Soccer Complex, YWCA, Mitchell Prehistoric Indian Village, Snack Pack Program, Area Community Theatre, Mitchell Area Safehouse, and trash pick-along Dry Run Creek, near Wal-mart and all around Lake Mitchell.
Students in the Arlene Gates Department of Nursing will split up into teams and work at Wesley Acres and Avera Brady Health and Rehab in Mitchell, and the education department will send groups to each of the elementary schools and middle school.
Following the volunteer projects, everyone will reconvene in the cafeteria and East Main Dining Room for an indoor picnic and video from last year's Service Day.
The Tuesday before graduation was traditionally known as "Reading Day" before 2010, when Dakota Wesleyan established "Service Day" as a thank you to the community that has supported the university for more than a century.

Some christians believe the Earth is only 6000 to 12,000 years old. Where does this age originate from?
Sign up

No, this is not a universal belief. Some do not take the days in Genesis as literal, and some treat Paradise (as described in Genesis) as being a spiritual world rather than being the same 'world' which we measure with carbon dating and other physical measures.
The 6000 years is roughly discerned using clues from stories in the Bible, but there are other measures placing its age closer to 7500 years.
What is generally used is the following:
It's a lot of work to do, really.
Variations in measures can be explained by differing interpretations of 'day' in Genesis, whether 'in the xth year of y' means that x years preceeded it or x-1 years, and estimates of times not explicitly mentioned.
The "young earth" figure comes from treating the descriptions of the creation of the earth in Genesis as a literal, continuous, description of earth history. It's fairly simple to do the calculation, adding up the ages of each person described, and concluding how long ago Adam and Eve happened. It was most famously done by Archbishop James Ussher.
Most Christians do not believe that the earth is that age, but a substantial minority (mainly in the US) do. See Wikipedia.
The discussion of the evidences for and against is far too complex to give even a summary here.
As mentioned elsewhere, the Young Earth belief comes from a literal reading of Genesis.
Problems do arise when we try to insert the day-age theory. Assume for a moment that one day is 100 million years. The symbiotic relationships in creation would be separated by hundreds of millions of years.
Additionally, if Adam was created on the sixth day, and the sixth day is 100 million years, if we trace down from his line, we would still be in the sixth day... or, if he was created on the last moment on the sixth day, we would still be early on the 7th day.
Also, why would we ever read 'day' and think 'millions of years'. The only reason would be what we have heard from scientists. However, every person is biased and brings that to bear upon the conclusions they draw. Darwinism is a theory based on assumptions that cannot be proven.
Several pieces of evidence for a young earth are based on the fact that things are wearing out:
The list goes on and on. So, there is a biblical reason to believe in a young earth. Science has failed to prove evolution or deal with the problems mentioned here as well as numerous others.
I'm a young earth creationist.
No, not all Christians maintain this belief. Christians can identify themselves with two different categories, Young Earth Creationist (YEC) or Old Earth Creationist (OEC).
As a YEC believe that God is more then capable of creating everything in six days and that the earth is less than 10,000 years old. As a YEC my argument originates from the following beliefs.
The flood event
The Bible talks about a huge flood about ~4,500 years ago. IF you look for the evidence of this flood you'll see that there's actually a lot of evidence. Walt Brown has done some great research on this topic. He holds true to scripture and does not deny any verses.
The reason that I mention this flood, is because the flood did some major devastation to this planet when it occurred. In young earth creationist POV we see that the sediment layers, massive fossil deposits and more where created because of this flood. The continental shelves and the oceans were also created because of the flood event.
Chemical dating
The only evidence that one has of an earth that's millions of years old is chemical dating. One thing that has recently been learned about chemical dating, is that if things are left in water then that thing's chemical dates will show the thing to be much older then it actually is.
Well, if all fossilized animals that we're finding today were put there due to a large flood, then it would make sense that the chemical dating shows those fossils to be older then what they actually are.
More evidence of young earth is given by our current population numbers. If we're the product of millions of years of evolution then we would see an obvious over population issue. But we don't see that, have you ever driven through Wyoming? We're not overpopulated. The entire human race could fit into the state of Virginia with room.
If you do a backwards calculation of our current population you find a small group of people ~4k to 6k years ago.
Planetary decay
I use the word decay very vagly here. The moon is drifting away from our planet. One million years ago and the moon would have been touching the earth. The sun is shrinking because of the constant amount of gases being burned. One million years ago and the sun would have been so hot that no life could have existed on earth. The planet is losing is magnetic field. People chalk this up to some kind of polar shift, which has never been seen or reproduced on any magnetic, ever.
We have NEVER witnessed a single star forming, know of one that has recently formed or even know how it would be possible. Scientists calculate that it would be impossible for debris to crush together to form a planet. They have no idea how this could happen. Granite is the same way, there's no way to create granite, it's impossible to have formed from molten lava.
IMHO, those of weak faith believe in man and those with stronger faith believe God. To answer your question, THIS IS WHY some Christians believe in young earth.
When voting on this comment do not downvote because you disagree, as this is not an arguement as to whether or not I'm right. This is merely an answer to the question "Do I maintain a belief that the earth is young, and why."
Again.. I'm not stating these as facts, I'm stating them as my beliefs as a YEC.
The belief that the earth is only around 6000 years old comes from faith, supported by appropriate interpretations of the Bible, including the creation accounts in Genesis chapters 1 and 2. The early Christian Church Fathers did not hold to this belief because they understood the Genesis creation history to be allegorical. By deriding any belief that the Genesis creation history should be read literally, Origen indicates that at least some Christians did hold this view as far back as the second century, but it has never been Catholic doctrine that the creation account was literally true.
Archbishop Ussher believed that the age of the earth could be calculated quite accurately, using the biblical genealogies that go all the way back to Adam, whom he assumed to be created on the sixth day. Using the Bible and, to a limited extent, extra-biblical information, he decided that the world was created in 4004 BCE, a date more or less consistent with other seventeenth-century calculations. However, it seems that belief in the historicity of the creation story only became a significant issue in the last 150 years, after the publication of Darwin's On the Origin of Species.
The biblical account in Genesis Genesis 2:4b-25 tells us of the creation of Adam, and then a biblical genealogy, from Adam onwards, tells us that Adam was created around six thousand years ago. However, this does not tell us anything about the age of the earth, so for this we need to harmonise Genesis 2:4b-25 with the other creation account in Genesis 1:1-2:4a. Genesis 1:16 tells us that the sun, moon and stars were created on the fourth day, so if the two accounts are aligned, we can then say that the universe was made just 6000 years ago. That still leaves the age of the earth, and Young Earth Creationism requires that the earth was created by God during the creation week of Genesis chapter 1.
In Hebrew, the first three words of Genesis are: "בראשית ברא אלהים" (B'reishit bara Elohim). There is no definite article and the grammar is complex, if not confusing, but there is a general consensus among scholars that this can not be translated correctly as "In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth" - for example, Leon R. Kass, The Beginning of Wisdom, page 27. Debate surrounds just when, in this passage, the earth would have been created, with some views saying that the earth was pre-existing. Nevertheless, Genesis 1:1 has almost universally been translated into English in the form "In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth," thus supporting a YEC view of the age of the earth as approximately 6000 years old.

DURANT, OK-- Durant High School's Student Council members are putting their hearts, into raising money for an area nonprofit.
This year as part of the student council's annual "Put Your Heart Into It" project.
Students are trying to raise $10,000 dollars to start up the Durant boys and girls club. The Choctaw Nation and the Massey Foundation say they'll match the students' funds, dollar for dollar.
"We chose the boys and girls club because we felt it will definitely impact the kids that are local. I think we will see the effects where our money is going and I think each kid in our school can benefit from the boys and girls club," Chay John, student, said.
Join Durant High School's Student Council for PYHII week and help them raise money for the Boys and Girls Club of Durant.
Each year the student council chooses a nonprofit organization to sponsor, they engage all of the student body to work together and raise money.
There will be different events throughout the week that community members can join and help the students raise money.
MONDAY: Powder Puff Football, @ Middle School football field @ 6:00 pm. Eat @ Rib Crib and they will donate 10% of their sales!
TUESDAY: Hoop to Help, in the Durant High School gym @ 6:00 pm. Shop at Tradewinds and they will donate 10% of their sales!
WEDNESDAY: Eat at Roma and they will donate 10% of their sales!
THURSDAY: Water Ballon Bonanza @ 6:00 pm @ Middle School football field. Eat @ Cherry Berry and they will donate 10% of their sales !
FRIDAY: Eat at Marcos and they will donate 10% of their sales!
Our goal is to raise $10,000 during this week!
We can only achieve this if everyone participates!

This is a sad example of "investigations" run amok.
Since they devoted millions, as well as major law enforcement and government institutions to the hunt, and since the matters involve murky campaign finance rules, it's a perfect playground for law enforcement. And if you don't get the indictment, then you look like a fool. The "investigation" has to justify itself. So, ultimately, someone is jailed.
You mark my words and see if they do not come to pass. In the end, the two men will be exonerated, or accept some kind of reduced "plea" deal just to get the murky matter behind them. Press conferences will then be held where the prosecution will defend itself and continue to smear these two men.
And, in the end, what has been accomplished? Nothing.
A complete waste.

Now let's hope for some sembalance of justice in that there are no plea deals offered for their felonies, the Church does not step in and lean on people to let them off the hook, and any politicians or government leaders get a wake up call the people of Utah have spoken and are through with corrupt leaders, whatever religion they belong to.

RE: two party system prevents this type of corruption. Maybe, maybe not. It
might just spread opportunities around for more people to get some of the
"political goodies".
I have always felt that others in state government must have been aware of what was going on, we are a small state and even with the divide between political parties, someone must have known something was not right. Why didn't anyone speak up? Because they were privy to the "secret", they were on the inside. This might have included some of the media.
It was the same thing with FDR and his not being photographed in his wheelchair and JFK and his romantic dalliances. People knew but said nothing because they would loose their connection with the power group and be on the outside.
Let's wait and see how this sordid tale unfolds, I'm sure there is a book here.

Esquire: Which goes to show how little you know about Chicago politics. 3 of the past 4 governors have served time for corruption and the current one is being investigated for the disappearance of $1.8 million and possible illegal hiring practices. But that's just the tip of the iceberg. Speaker of the House since 1983 and Chairman of the State Democratic party, Mike Madigan, has controlled Illinois politics through the giving or withholding of favors for decades and with the help of gerrymandering (as demonstrated by Illinois' 4th Congressional district).

As a good Conservative Republican that runs to the libertarian side of things,
I'm happy as a clam that these two got nicked. I used to be a Shurtleff
supporter way back in the day but I saw him turn from a good ethical man to a
power hungry one. As for Swallow, I've seen him coming since day one. I
once shook his hand at a function but then went and washed it because I knew how
he was. He's been ethically challenged since before he was in the
legislature and after becoming Shurtleff's lap dog, he got much worse.
In the 2012 Republican convention, I talked to many delegates telling them that Swallow had problems that went way back and he shouldn't be Atty General. Most didn't listen. I had heard rumors about Swallow for years and the chickens finally came home to roost.
I even, I hate to admit it, voted for Matheson once when Swallow ran against him. The lesser of two evils.
Don't use this as a reason to say Republicans are bad. Remember Allan Howe and Dave Watson among others.

Is this the "Republican Leadership" and "Judeo-Christian
Conservative" values that I've heard touted so much in this state?
I think we need new laws and new leadership.
It's obvious that the laws and transparency are way too weak and that those in power have been in power for far too long.

looked like they were ending at exactly the right time, it appears each video has an extra second or two of talking that I meant to cut off. The result is that the video stops right in the middle of a comment by Fabrice that's actually for the

Whatever warm cuddly advances are made by large corporations toward community efforts and transparency, there are still serious and valid concerns about the ramifications of letting civilians produce content.
This is part two of the series on the MSDN dev and internationalization wikis.
In this one, we talk about some of the work Fabrice and team had to do to push these projects through, get them approved, and implemented.
Don't know about you people, but I look at community involvement as being a great thing for everybody. However, I'm not the one who has to take responsibility for opening up a site to modifications from the general public. When we see these projects, it's easy to forget the kind of risks that are being taken on behalf of the employees who drive the efforts.
This interview reminded me of what those risks can be...

I am thinking about some topological field theories, and I am wondering when one can say that the stationary phase approximation (ie. a sum of the first-order variations about each vacuum) is exact.
I am looking perhaps for conditions on how the space of vacua is embedded into the space of all field configurations. I suspect that when the action is a Morse function (and I suppose the space of field configurations is finite dimensional) that the exactness of the stationary phase approximation implies some very strict topological constraints on the configuration space... torsion-free and so on.
Anyone have a good reference or some wisdom?
Also I'd like to dedicate this question to the memory of theoreticalphysics.stackexchange

Dumping Syndrome
In this article
Dumping Syndrome: Causes of the Late Phase
The symptoms of this late phase may happen due to a rapid rise and fall in blood sugar levels. The cause of this rapid swing in blood sugar may be worse when eating sweets or other simple carbohydrates.
If you have not already been diagnosed with the dumping syndrome, and you have confusion, dizziness, rapid heartbeat, or fainting, get immediate medical help. Call 911 right away.
Dumping Syndrome Treatment
Many people find that taking steps like these greatly reduces symptoms of dumping syndrome.
Foods to avoid. Avoid eating sugar and other sweets such as:
- Candy
- Sweet drinks
- Cakes
- Cookies
- Pastries
- Sweetened breads
Also avoid dairy products and alcohol. And avoid eating solids and drinking liquids during the same meal. In fact, don't drink 30 minutes before and 30 minutes after meals.
Foods to eat. To help with symptoms, also try these tips:
- Use fiber supplements, such as psyllium (Metamucil or Konsyl), methylcellulose (Citrucel), or guar gum (Benefiber).
- Use sugar replacements, such as Splenda, Equal, or Sweet'N Low, instead of sugar.
- Go for complex carbohydrates, such as vegetables and whole-wheat bread, instead of simple carbohydrates, such as sweet rolls and ice cream.
- To prevent dehydration, drink more than 4 cups of water or other sugar-free, decaffeinated, noncarbonated beverages throughout the day.
How to eat. Here are some other ways to lessen symptoms of dumping syndrome:
- Eat five or six small meals or snacks a day.
- Keep portions small, such as 1 ounce of meat or 1/4 cup of vegetables.
- Cut food into very small pieces. Chew well before swallowing.
- Combine proteins or fats along with fruits or starches. (For example, combine fruit with cottage cheese.)
- Stop eating when you first begin to feel full.
- Drink liquids 30 to 45 minutes after meals.
- Reclining after eating may help prevent light-headedness.
When to Call the Doctor About Dumping Syndrome
It is important to manage dumping syndrome so you stay well-nourished and don't lose too much weight. Talk to your health care provider about any symptoms you have and what else you can do. In some cases, medication or surgery may be needed to help correct the symptoms of dumping syndrome.

Howdy all,
I have a 360 pano which was taken on a day with grey sky, and my eye (as well as Hugin) cannot find any place from which to make control points. I tried selecting random places as control points, hoping to fool the program, but Hugin is smarter than that and it did not work.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to add the "up" shot which is grey sky?
OR, with a 5D MkIII and a 16-35 lens set on 16mm, is 30 degrees pointed up (with a NN5L) enough to not need the "up" shot? If so, will the pano be less than 180 degrees top to bottom?
Thanks everyone,

A fire severely damaged the home at 767 Pleasant Grove Road in Warren County Saturday night around 9:00.
Richardsville Volunteer Fire Department Chief Brian Lee says the homeowner was in the process of renovating.
Lee says the the blaze started with a propane leak in a small heater.
He says the homeowner was unable to put it out, and it soon engulfed the entire house.
The residents were able to safely escape.
Richardsville, Smiths Grove, and Gott volunteer fire departments responded to the scene.
The Red Cross is going to help the family, and a state fire official is coming in for a further investigation.

This post is a part of Help a Noob day over at Zug Gaming
Better a newbie than a nub
- If you get called a nub, it's time to work out what you are doing so wrong.
- If you are called a noob, it's time to work out what you can do better.
- If you get called a newbie, it's time to celebrate each and every new experience and look forward to the joyful times of learning how you can be your best while having fun and lots of it.
I was a newbie once and with the coming Cataclysm I will be again, if only for a short period of time.
I have been a noob on many occasions over the past 5 odd years and even a nub on occasion.
Probably the most important thing to know about being a newbie is that we all were once and people will be surprisingly accepting of a new player, they may even be helpful – this isn't as unusual as it may seem.
The challenges for you as a newbie are:
- Walking the line between unimagined new experiences and getting the game given to you on a plate.
- Being a nervous beginner in your 1st dungeon, raid or battleground and being the one the other party members harangue for apparent ineptitude.
- Being the low dps (damage per second), heals or threatless tank while enjoying the game you play (yet scorned by others) or bring a competent addition in whichever facet of WoW you choose to enjoy.
Walking the line.
If you are here, reading this, or reading ZugGaming, or one of the hundreds of others out there, you want more than to fumble in the WoW darkness.
This is good, but only so long as knowledge doesn't steal the magic and mystery from a wonderful game with often missed graphics, storylines and experiences.
Learn to play well, but only to facilitate the experience, not to remove it.
Going down in your 1st dungeon.
Dungeons, raids and battlegrounds require not only the skills you have used to solo your way to the dungeon finder. They require a new set of skills combining both teamwork and knowledge of the content.
This is reset with every new group and every new dungeon, raid and battleground.
The best way to approach this is to admit it straight up.
- I'm new to the game
- I'm new to the dungeon/raid/battleground
- I'm new to this class
Now that you have that off your chest-piece, you are less likely to be called a noob, or god forbid a nub, but only if you go the next step and listen, learn and act upon the greater knowledge of those you play with.
You will need this knowledge. You will be back and next time you won't be a newbie.
Do what you do… Well!
No one minds what you do on your own time, but the moment you join a group there are a set of (often) unspoken norms, or rules that you will be expected to play within.
If you play a damage dealer, you will be expected to aim for your potential damage, your participation is essential for the parties success.
If you are a healer, you will be expected to first and foremost keep the tank alive, then yourself, then the best dps and so on.
If you are the tank, you have one job and one job only. Ensure the only person getting hit is yourself, never the healer and rarely the dps.
Pull aggro off the tank as dps, daydream rather than heal, ignore the lose mobs and you haven't fulfilled your role.
Play your best and you will gain virtual friends for life!
Slay them all!
Many players fixate on particular aspects of the game. They aim to be the best raider, or PvPer, or role-player, or quester, or explorer, or… there is so much choice.
Ultimately it is your choice but if there is one thing I would recommend, it's to leave no aspect of WoW unexplored.
At one point I swore I would never PvP, or go to the trouble of preparing to raid, or waste time exploring, or fishing, or questing.
Now, 5 years down the track, I wish I had begun my WoW life tasting all the delicacies of WoW. These days I gorge myself and it is hard to drag me from the table of wonder.
Taste it all not once, but often. Be a newbie in every way you can, enjoy your time and when ready get serious, slay them all, show them all…
That you are not a noob like Gnomeaggedon!

On the main page of StackExchange sites, hovering over any question link produces a quick preview of the body of the question, which is a very nice feature. However, newlines in the body are reproduced as newlines in the hover-text source. This causes Firefox 3.6 to silently drop the newlines, mashing together text from different paragraphs in jarring, poorly-punctuated fashion (e.g. "… by clicking DraftsI'd like to see …", or "…deleted their own question?I provided an answer…"). It would be nice if the backend could replaced newlines with spaces instead.
What is meta?
- Any Stack Exchange user can ask a question
- The community provides support, votes on ideas, and reports bugs
- Your voice helps shape the way Stack Exchange operates
You're taking that part of the spec out of context. Here it is in full:
In other words, you're limited to that small set of characters (which, you should note, does not include spaces) iff you don't put the attribute in quotes.
A title attribute (the value being used here) should contain human readable text. This definition of CDATA says:
Given that, it's clear that line feeds, carriage returns, and tabs are valid characters.
What it appears you'd like is for SO to change their line feeds (per the spec, ignored by FF) to carriage returns (per the spec, converted into spaces). Is that correct?
Note that neither IE or Chrome or Safari have this behavior. They all display newlines in the
Opera also makes this mistake, but I expect softheadedness from Opera.

Help support your Meetup
Some say that Austin just isn't the same anymore... But can you name somewhere that is? Thought so... Many of the "old school" hippies in Austin have changed also but the spirit is still here and in our present fear-based world of social manipulation we need the healthy hippie spirit more than ever. Join us as we seek out and enjoy the fun and adventure in the Austin of today as a hippie in recovery or a neo-hippie who doesn't partake in alcohol, drugs, mood altering substances but still believes in hippie values. Learn why Austin always has been, and always will be, the hippie capital of Texas...many of the original hippies in Austin are in recovery because of the damage that resulted from chemical mood altering but still have held on to the values...peace, love, understanding, harmony, environmentalism... Enjoy the company of other local clean and sober hippies, counter-culturist and loving folks of the world as we celebrate our differences and revel in our novel culture . As Jerry Garcia put it, " We had it right with peace, love, understanding and challenging the establishment that supported the Vietnam War...but we got it all wrong with the drugs" What will make this group successful is keeping the hippie traditions of Peace, Kindness, harmony, Political and Social Activisim, Environmentalism and lots of healthy fun assisting our community as much as we can in the busy Society we live in. If you want to get active and have some ideas/resources to offer, I will make you an Assistant Organizer and you can post events on the calendar easy as that. I am a licensed chemical dependency counselor with over twenty years in the field so I know how important recovery is to those who need a safe environment to learn how to have just as much fun with more fulfillment without mood altering substances. I ask that everyone when they join to read: The Home page and the Tribal rules. We have the potential for an awesome group of people to have clean/sober fun with each other as well as keeping our hippie values in a world that needs all the things that a Hippie stands for. Lets uplift and support each other to keep interdependence alive!!!

NEW CUMBERLAND - The auction of Newell Memorial Stadium is back on track now that the Hancock County school board has agreed to sell the property to the highest bidder.
The board voted 3-2 on Monday to accept Superintendent Suzan Smith's recommendation to sell the football field at auction at 10 a.m. Oct. 25. The board set the minimum bid at $250,000.
The vote came about a month after the board's 3-2 rejection on Sept. 10 of Smith's original proposal for the stadium sale. Board members who changed their vote - Jerry Durante and Toni Hinerman - said their conditions for the sale had been met to their satisfaction.
The only board member to change her vote from a "yes" to a "no," Laura Greathouse, said she did so because she believes the district should have accepted an offer from the city of Chester to buy the stadium for $250,000.
"If we can keep it in the community and still have the money that we need, then that's enough for me," Greathouse said. "I will not vote for an auction when (the community) might not get it."
Last week, Chester Council authorized Mayor Ken Morris to make an offer to the school board at Monday's meeting. Morris was unable to attend the meeting because of a work commitment that required him to be out of the state.
But Smith read a letter dated Oct. 5 that claimed to be a formal offer from the city of Chester to buy the stadium. The offer involved the city acting as a "middle man" between an anonymous private donor and the school district, Morris said last week. The Chester Volunteer Fire Department then would reimburse the donor and take possession of the property, keeping it in community hands, Morris said.
The school board took no action on the Chester offer Monday night, instead opting for the auction under rules slightly revised from Smith's previous proposal. The vote was Durante, Hinerman and Patsy Brancazio for the auction; Greathouse and John Manypenny against the auction.
Durante, board president, said the board couldn't consider Chester's offer because it wasn't on the agenda.
"I didn't think it was timely," he said. "I can't just turn around and let that property go on this kind of (short) notice."
Durante voted against Smith's previous proposal because he, like Manypenny, believes its insistence on a lump-sum payment unnecessarily limited the field of prospective buyers.
In the meantime, the board checked with its legal counsel, Richard Boothby of the Bowles Rice law firm, and learned that it cannot accept payments for the stadium, Durante said.
"It has to be one lump sum," he said.
Durante said he also was not convinced that the Chester offer was completely legal.
"There are two things I worry about: I'm hyper over making sure we're legal ... and what is best for the Hancock County school system, aside from any public pressure."
Among those applying pressure on the board to accept Chester's offer Monday night were members of the Newell Community Improvement Coalition. For the third time in as many months, coalition Treasurer Sue Thompson told the board it should not opt for an auction of the stadium.
"We're fearful as to what's going to happen" if the stadium ends up in private hands, Thompson said.
But Hinerman said there's nothing preventing Morris, the Chester mayor, from bidding on the 4.25-acre property at the Oct. 25 auction.
The auction rules state:
The auction will take place in the school board room, 104 N. Court St., New Cumberland (in the basement of the New Cumberland City Building).
The property will go to the highest responsible bidder.
15 percent of the winning bid, by cash or personal check, is due on the day of the auction.
The board will meet in special session on Oct. 29 to either approve or reject the winning bid.
The balance must be paid, by cash or cashier's check, at the closing, which is 20 calendar days after the board approves the bid.

Diarrhea A Year After Radiation
The Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania
Last Modified: January 26, 2012
It is a year after radiation finished and I am still experiencing diarrhea. What can I do to manage this better/decrease incidence of it?
Nicole Ross, RN, MSN, OCN - Radiation Oncology Nurse at Penn Medicine, responds:
We would typically not expect that you are would have diarrhea one year after radiation. You may find it helpful to analyze your diet to figure out if it is related to your diet. Speaking with a dietitian can be helpful. If this does not help, I would recommend following up with your PCP to rule out other causes.
These tip sheets on managing diarrhea and eating a low fiber diet to control diarrhea may be helpful.

3 Great Reasons To Have Gratitude On Your Cancer Teamby Marlys Johnson

Microsoft rolled out yesterday a new suite of updated betas for its web-connected Windows Live software, which includes Live Writer, Movie Maker, Mail, Photo Gallery, and three others. Some of the Live apps—-which you can now download as a suite or individually—gained a few notable features and tweaks, while others simply earned a brighter coat of paint. I installed the whole "Live Wave 3," took notes on what was notable, and grabbed a few screenshots as well:
Live MailThe big addition to this souped-up version of Windows Vista's default mail handler is a calendar function that syncs with your Live Calendar. The calendar itself is a pretty clean-looking affair, with a white background and the month name transparently embedded in the background. Hopefully, they'll add calendar subscription options to Mail in the final release, rather than making you head to the web calendar to add an iCal file or link. There's also no apparent place to set your default appointment preferences or quick-add an event from a text line. You can, however, right-click any email you see in Live Mail and select "Add to calendar"—but by "add," at least at this point, Live Mail really means "reply and add a calendar input box to the toolbar": So, Live Mail's calendar has a long way to go to match even Yahoo Calendar in the features and convenience realm, but what it does offer is tight integration with your Windows address book (which gets populated by Office and Outlook use) and live syncing to Windows Live web services, which is, well, the whole point here. Let's move on.
Live WriterThe actual meat of this neat, under-touted app hasn't changed all that much since our screenshot tour of tips and tweaks . It did, however, add a few more blog formats it's comfortable hooking into, and you can now quickly grab and embed videos from YouTube—from your own account, your favorites, or elsewhere—without having to touch a single bit of HTML. Live Writer remains one of the best ways to edit a blog for both novices and experienced writers who just don't want to mess around with their platform's web interface.
Live MesssengerFull disclosure: I could only think of one friend, offline at the time, who uses MSN Messenger, so I apologize for the rather empty screenshot. Of all the Live Wave 3 apps, Messenger got the truest overhaul. The LiveSide.net blog has already done the yeoman's work of detailing all the new features and interface changes , but here's a quick hit list:
- Integration with your computer's shared folders and the Live Skydrive service.
- Uber-customization of your icon, shaded border, and even the background that appears on your chat window and any contacts'.
- You can receive messages and sign on from multiple computers.
- "Signature sounds" let you have a sound play on contacts' computers when you message them (and it can, of course, be turned off by the inevitably annoyed).
- Easy photo sharing—just hit "Photos" in the chat window, select your photo, and the contact sees it, even if it's not clear how to save it.
