Criminal Defense Attorney
It is suggested you retain an attorney, clean up your driving record and car registration. Plead not guilty then go into court and have the attorney work out the case for you. Good luck.
Criminal Defense Attorney
You should get the car registered and inspected immediately, keep your receipts and records, and speak to an experienced traffic lawyer. Although the offenses carry no points or suspensions, you should discuss the situation with a lawyer so you can make an informed decision whether to fight the citations.

World powers and Iran geared up Monday for fresh nuclear negotiations, with Russian President Vladimir Putin telling Iranian counterpart Hassan Rouhani he was upbeat about prospects for a landmark accord.
Speaking by phone two days before the talks resume in Geneva, Putin "stressed that a real chance has now emerged for finding a solution to this longstanding problem," the Kremlin said.
Rouhani, who has raised big hopes for an end to the decade-old standoff, told Putin that "excessive demands could complicate the process towards a win-win agreement," an Iranian government website said.
The comments came a day after French President Francois Hollande laid out in Israel the "essential" steps that Tehran must agree with the United States, China, Russia, Britain, France and Germany, known collectively as the P5+1 group.
These steps include stopping the enrichment of uranium to 20-percent purity, reducing enriched uranium stockpiles, and stopping construction of a new reactor at Arak.
It remains to be seen, however, whether the minor and reversible sanctions relief that the P5+1 is offering in return will be enough to persuade Tehran to play ball.
On Monday, Hollande stressed that the sanctions would stay in place unless Tehran renounces its suspected nuclear arms programme.
"I confirm here that we will maintain the sanctions as long as we are not certain that Iran has definitively renounced its military (nuclear) programme," he said in Jerusalem as Israel remains suspicious of Iran's intentions.
Iran's economy has been punished by a string of international sanctions. US and EU sanctions have more than halved its oil sales, sent the currency plummeting and inflation soaring.
One potential sticking point in the negotiations is Iran's previous demand that the powers recognise it has a "right" to enrich uranium.
"No agreement will be reached without securing the rights of the Iranian nation," the lead Iranian negotiator Abbas Araqchi said Sunday, predicting "difficult" talks.
Uranium enrichment
Iran says it is enriching uranium to purities of up to five and 20 percent for civilian purposes. When further enriched to 90 percent, uranium can be used as fissile material in a nuclear bomb.
Iran's ability to enrich to 20 percent is of particular concern because this is most of the way to producing weapons-grade uranium.
Its stockpile is already large enough in theory to make several bombs.
At present, the UN atomic watchdog would detect any attempt to enrich to weapons-grade. But the fear is that soon this may no longer be the case as Iran adds to its 19,000 centrifuges, thus shortening its "breakout" time.
Another worry is the reactor being built at Arak, which theoretically could provide Iran with plutonium, an alternative to uranium in a bomb, although this is a longer-term concern.
Israel warns of 'nightmare' deal
Even though it would only be a "first phase" initial deal, an accord in Geneva would be a major breakthrough after a decade of rising tensions and failed diplomatic initiatives.
The International Atomic Energy Agency said last week that since Rouhani took office, Iran has put the brakes on expanding its programme.
But watching with a sceptical eye will be hardliners in both the United States and Iran, as well as Israel.
Any deal deemed too soft on Iran will make it harder for US President Barack Obama to dissuade Congress from passing more sanctions, which might scupper the negotiations.
Rouhani meanwhile risks losing the backing of supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei if the relative moderate's "charm offensive" since taking office fails to bear fruit soon.
"If Rouhani is not getting anywhere, the conservatives are going to make a strong comeback," Trita Parsi, author and president of the National Iranian American Council, told AFP.
The toughest to satisfy could be Israel, which sees its very existence threatened by a nuclear-armed Iran allied with Hezbollah and Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
Widely believed to have a formidable nuclear arsenal itself, Israel has refused to rule out bombing Iran's facilities, as it reportedly did with an Iraqi reactor in 1981 and a Syrian facility in 2007.
"Iran's dream deal is the world's nightmare," Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday.
Hollande's trip to Israel was partly to try to ease Netanyahu's concerns. US Secretary of State John Kerry will do the same on Friday on his second visit in two weeks.
Netanyahu will also meet Putin in Moscow on Wednesday.

Basic Food Sold Additive After Salmonella Found, FDA Says
WASHINGTON—Basic Food Flavors Inc., the Las Vegas company at the center of a recall of more than 100 food products, continued to make and distribute food ingredients for about a month after it learned the bacteria salmonella was present at its processing facility, according to a Food and Drug Administration report.
The FDA last week recommended companies recall products, from chips to soups, that contain a commonly used additive made by Basic Food Flavors that tested positive for salmonella. The additive is mixed into foods to give them a meaty flavor.
FDA officials inspected Basic Food's plant for about two weeks starting in mid-February and found the company didn't adequately clean equipment and store foods to protect against the growth of contaminants such as salmonella, according to the inspection report.
The report comes as the number of products being recalled has expanded to over 100, including vegetable dips made by McCormick MKC -0.85 % & Co. and honey mustard pretzels sold at CVS Caremark Corp. CVS -0.20 % drug stores and Safeway Inc. grocery stores.
The inspectors noted that "light-brown residue" and "dark-brown liquid" was observed on or around where Basic Food makes flavor-enhancing ingredients used in foods. The inspectors said brown residue was also found in a plastic pipe used in making food ingredients.
Basic Food makes a flavor enhancer called hydrolyzed vegetable protein, or HVP. The FDA report said the company first learned salmonella was present at its processing facility for HVP on Jan. 21. The company continued to distribute the ingredients until Feb. 15. A representative for the company wasn't immediately available to comment. The company hasn't responded to earlier requests for comment.
No illnesses have been reported related to the recall, said FDA spokeswoman Rita Chappelle.
FDA and other health officials have said the risk of people getting sick from products containing the HVP is low because the flavor enhancer generally makes up less than 1% of all the ingredients in a food. The FDA also said cooking some products before consuming them may kill the salmonella.

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Mar 01st, 1998
Running Time: 85
Director: Toni English
Company: Vivid Entertainment Group
Cast: Kelly Jean, Jon Dough, Kobe Tai, Alexandra Silk, Kyle Stone (straight), Stephanie Swift
Critical Rating: Not Yet Rated
Genre: Film
The basic premise of this movie remains pretty much a mystery until the end – which would have been fine, if it had been tied altogether better.
Kobe Tai and Alexandra Silk are on their way to a sleep-over in the country when their truck breaks down. They ask for help from St. Croix, Dough and Stone, who agree to repair the truck. Through the course of the film, they have sex with each of the men, and – as payback for something that happened to each of the women earlier in their lives – take their misplaced vengeance out on the guys. It's your basic revenge movie, with a little sex involved.
If one is going to spend the money it takes to shoot on film, and to acquire the caliber of actors and actresses that you have here, you'd think one would put more effort into getting a better story. Someone sitting next to me while I watched Sleepover said it all: "I thought a Vivid movie would be better." The whole thing was basically fluff. The first scene, with Kobe Tai and Vince Vouyer, was a standard throwaway sex scene which did nothing to advance the movie. And really, none of the sex, with the exception of Kelly Jean and Kyle Stone's coupling, showed any real animal heat. Kyle is certainly the exception to the rule here – he gives the impression that he's a real man doing the real thing – but the rest of the movie doesn't measure up.
The cinematography is adequate, the sound is good, and the editing is above average. The problem I had with the photography was that the cameraman seemed to be afraid to get near the dick and the pussy. Every cum shot must have been filmed from about twenty feet – you couldn't tell if the guy was cummin' or not. So I can't even say the movie was sex-driven.
Hey, I know we're all working for a living, but I think a man's job is to evoke some response from a woman and to get her to reveal something of herself on film. If she's a nasty whore and she's hiding it, let us know. These girls are just doing what they do. There's got to be heat for the woman to react to it. If it's not there, you've got to create it. Find out what she likes and give it to her.
These are the kinds of actors who don't really need direction; they are capable of pretty much saying the words and getting away with it. I think the story lacked any kind of direction or heat, and I think that affected the whole production.
My feeling has always been: If I'm going to watch a movie from Vivid, I'm going to watch a Paul Thomas movie. Sleepover didn't change my mind.

We have stayed at the Surf Club for a week in July, for the past three years. Their two bedroom
units are ideal for families, spacious, two bedroom, two bath, with a living room in between.
They are clean and comfortable. It is a great place to go with children, however, we
would not stay there if we did not have family with us. We would definitely choose an
Adults Only hotel for ourselves. They do have an adults only pool, but it is a big resort, with
children everywhere. The beach is crowded, chairs close together and the chair tag thing a
waste of vacation time. However, if you want chairs at the beach, you have to get in line, either
first thing in the morning or at 4pm the day before. It is not a deal breaker but it is
Food is expensive but a quick trip to the supermarket and you can load up on just about everything you can get in your local supermarket in the US
I would recommend this hotel for families, the lazy river is fun, lots to do in the area, it is
well taken care of and is safe and secure.

CLUB NIGHTS - Monday 5:45PM, Hansen Park
Club Nights commence Monday 12th October at Hansen Park. Club Nights are targeted to grades 7 to 11. At Club Nights, athletes will take part in various activities that will incorporate running, jumping and throwing, the fundamentals of athletics, with a focus on FUN and being active as much as possible. To make these nights successful we need the welcomed assistance from parents to ensure all activities are run safely. Alternative training nights are provided for athletes wanting specific coaching for event skills and technique. These training nights are primarily for competing interclub athletes.
An athlete's official age is his or her age as of 31 Dec, 2015. For example, if a child is 9 at the beginning of the season but turns 10 in December, then he or she competes as a 10 year old the entire season (even before turning 10). If another child is 9 but turns 10 in January, he or she competes as a 9 year old the entire season (even after turning 10). These official ages apply to club nights, Saturday Interclub competition, and the Colgate Games. At Saturday Interclub and the Colgate Games, children compete only against others in the same age group (the exception being that children under 7 compete as a 7 year old). However, on club nights, we often combine age groups (e.g. "under 8", "8 & 9 year olds" or "12 and older") based on the number of children attending.
TRAINING and COACHING
Training and Coaching is available for all club members for an additional fee.
Grade 10 to 14 training is held Thursday 6:00pm to 7:30pm at Hansen Park

In the article headlined "City of Hearne in standstill" penned by Emily Wilkins of The eagle several key detail were left out leaving readers to believe that the city is in utter chaos.
First fact is at the time of the cancellation of the May 12 and May 14 council meetings there were 19 provisional votes outstanding. Since then 10 have been disqualified and 9 provisional have been counted. The final provisional ballot was counted Wednesday afternoon.
Since the May 12 and May 14 were cancelled a new meeting would have to be posted for 72 hours. The meeting Thursday was a violation of the open meetings act since that meeting had been cancelled. The "reposting" did not allow for 72 hours as prescribed by state law.
by Dennis Phillips
The National Honor Society family at Hearne High School grew this past Tuesday evening with six new students earning the achievement. Senior Octavia Pierce along with sophomores Kinnikinic Bundage, Adrian Gasga, Blanca Hernandez, AnQuenette Miles and Esmeralda Padilla all took the pledge and joined the elite among Hearne High School Students.

First Fico Score Questions
Hey guys, I opened up my first EVER credit card on May 1st, I've had no other credit history besides a few inquiries before this, no lates, no other trade lines what so ever, so the beginning of my credit life was on May 1st, right?
I've read, that once you open your first trade line, it takes 6 months before it reports and you are given a FICO score, is this true? Question 1.
Will that 6 months (or other time frame) be from the date I opened the card (May 1st), or 6 months after my first statement (June 13th)? Question 2.
Other info that may help answer my question,
My card is a Capital One Secured with a 1,000 dollar limit, I've never been late and have no other possible negatives.
Your help is greatly appreciated, thank you.
Capital One Secured $400 limit
BOFA Secured $300 limit
PSECU Visa $2000 limit

Yesterday I was able to log into the website no problem at all. Today if I try to view the website which is in a subdirectory http://www.solarbright.com.au/skylights I just get this error message "Error establishing a database connection". The site is set to automatically update and I suspect it may have something to do with an update done last night. I have viewed and worked my way through all the suggestions here https://codex.wordpress.org/Login_Trouble - but none of them have worked. I am still getting the same error. I have viewed the files on the server and everything is there. I have double checked everything suggested in the Login Trouble document.
Can anyone help, I have no idea what has happened as everything was working fine yesterday & if I have disabled both the theme & the plugins and it still doesn't work, I'm not sure what else could be causing the error.
Thank you in advance for your time.

Miley Cyrus is used to being in control, but when it comes to the sparkler she's wearing from fiancé Liam Hemsworth, she admits it was all him.
"I had no input," she tells Marie Claire in the September issue cover story, of her 18-karat Neil Lane bauble, hand-cut in the late 1800s.
"I saw it online at one point and thought it was really pretty. I just love that it's old and has a story. And I'm happy because it doesn't look like anything else I wear."
Cyrus, 19 – whose engagement was announced by PEOPLE on June 6 – has no reservations about her decision to tie the knot, but notes that she isn't walking down the aisle soon.
"Life is too short not to be with the person you want to be with," she explains. "I don't really care about the wedding or the piece of paper as much as I do the promise we've made to each other. And we want to have a long engagement."
"Liam and I have a really good relationship," she says. "Neither of us is super jealous. We know each other and would never do anything to hurt each other."

Maybe you should eat more fast food so that you'd have more reason to go to gym
OK, what's it gonna take to put Lila in a bikini? Come on John/L.A., get with it.
Summertime….they put her in a bikini all the time….just hang in there! LOL
Wait. You go to the gym to MEET PEOPLE? And all this time I was just working out and becoming a champion powerlifter. I feel so stupid!
But fast food is cheap and the less you have the more you eat it.

Additionally, it wasn't "eight days notice" like Dana keeps saying. It was two or three. Fighters don't train that much during the last week before the event. They also have to travel and do all of the fight week media. What kind of "legitimate sport" pulls that **** on a world champion? They should have cancelled the card the second that they heard Henderson was out.
I guarantee you that this won't be the last time that something like this happens over the next couple of years with all of the bull**** subpar cards that Zuffa has scheduled.
Welcome to the world of promoting Dana. Fighters get injured, fighters pull out and events have to be adjusted or in extreme circumstances cancelled.
Classy response from Jackson touching on a few of Dana's shortcomings.

Vector space text classification is commonly used in intelligence applications such as email and conversation analysis. In this paper we propose a supervised term weighting scheme called tf × KL (term frequency Kullback-Leibler), which weights each word proportionally to the ratio of its document frequency across the positive and negative class. We then generalize tf × KL to effectively deal with class imbalance, which is very common in real world intelligence analysis. The generalized tf × KL weights each word according to the ratio of the positive and negative class conditioned word probabilities instead of the raw document frequencies. Results on four classification datasets show tf × KL to perform consistently better than the baseline tf ×idf and 4 other supervised term weighting schemes, including the recently proposed tf × rf (term frequency relevance frequency). The generalized tf × KL was found to be extremely robust in dealing with highly skewed class distributions, beating the second runner-up by more than 20% on a dataset that has only 10% positive training examples. The generalized tf × KL is thus an effective and robust term weighting scheme that can significantly improve binary classification performance in sentiment analysis and intelligence applications.

Pork Medallions with Miso-Mushroom Sauce
From EatingWell: December 2005/January 2006, The EatingWell Healthy in a Hurry Cookbook (2006)
There are as many varieties of sake, a rice wine, as there are of, well, wine. Try a Junmai sake in this hearty but simple sauce; the added fruitiness complements the shiitakes. Make It a Meal: Try quick-cooking barley and a glass of Sapporo beer.
Makes: 4 servings

Nutrition Profile
Diabetes appropriate | Low calorie | Low saturated fat | Heart healthy | Healthy weight | High potassium |View Our Nutrition Guidelines »
- 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, divided
- 1 pound pork tenderloin, trimmed of fat and cut into 1-inch-thick slices
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- 14 ounces shiitake mushrooms, stemmed and sliced (6 cups)
- 8 ounces white mushrooms, sliced (3 cups)
- 1 14-ounce can reduced-sodium chicken broth
- 1/4 cup sake, (see Ingredient notes)
- 2 teaspoons rice vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- 4 scallions, sliced
- 1 tablespoon miso, (see Ingredient notes)
- Place 1/4 cup flour on a large plate and dredge pork slices in it, shaking off the excess.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook until golden, crispy and just barely pink in the center, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer the pork to a plate; tent with foil to keep warm.
- Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Add shiitake and white mushrooms and cook, stirring often, until softened and beginning to brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons flour over the mushrooms; stir to coat. Add broth, sake, vinegar and pepper and bring to a simmer over high heat, stirring often. Reduce heat and continue simmering, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is thickened and slightly reduced, 4 to 6 minutes. Stir in scallions and miso. Return the pork to the pan, turn to coat with the sauce, and simmer until heated through, about 1 minute. Serve the pork topped with the sauce.
Tips & Notes
- Ingredient Notes: Sake is a dry rice wine generally available where wines are sold. Junmai, a special designation for sake, denotes sake brewed from rice that has been milled less than other special-designation sakes. More pure than other sakes, junmai has no distilled alcohol added. It is characterized by a well-rounded, rich flavor and body and more acidity than most sakes.
- Miso is fermented bean paste made from barley, rice or soybeans; it is used in Japanese cooking to add flavor to dishes such as soups, sauces and salad dressings. A little goes a long way because of its concentrated, salty taste. Miso is available in different colors, depending on the type of grain or bean and how long it's been fermented. In general, the lighter the color, the more mild the flavor. It will keep, in the refrigerator, for more than a year.

Is it possible to hardcode the plugin into a theme template without using the widget system?
Is it possible to hardcode the plugin into a theme template without using the widget system?
Hi Skribe,
Yes, absolutely. This widget is based on Aaron J White's excellent script using the disqus api that is completely independent of WordPress. His most recent version is on github, and the development version of this plugin is a fork of that. You would have to be a developer, or be familiar with php to utilize these resources however.
The plugin itself currently does not support the ability to call a short code or anything like that, but we'd absolutely consider it for a 2.0 version. What were you thinking as far as implementation?
Thanks for the prompt reply, Andrew.
I don't want to do anything grand. I just want to replace this:
<?php src_simple_recent_comments(9) ?>
which currently resides in my footer.
Hi Skribe,
Sorry for the delay, busy couple weeks here at the office. We'll look into integrating that into an upcoming version, thanks much for the feedback. We're going to be releasing a patch here shortly to fix a couple bugs, and then rolling out a 1.2 version with Aaron's updated script once we've had a chance to test it on WP 3.6, we'll try to get this into that release.

Interested in Seville?
We'll send you updates with the latest deals, reviews and articles for Seville each week.
Topics include Dining Scene, Spain: For Foreign Visitors & more!
Much of Seville is quite walkable, especially the historic city with its narrow streets and closely knit shops and cafes. The Triana section of the city, also older when compared to the city's most modern section, is very pedestrian friendly as well and has a lot to see by foot. For getting around other sections of Seville, the city has plenty of available taxi cabs and a well run public bus system. Getting around by taxi or bus is recommended if you have a specific destination in mind and do not wish to walk. For buses Tussam has a very good bus map available from the information offices with all the routes or see Tussam's site http://www.tussam.es/ that shows routes and maps. The most useful for the city centre are C1 to C5 that go in a circular route around the centre. The bus fare is 1.10 euros (Oct 08) that you can pay on board or you can buy a book of 10 tickets (bonobus) for 5 euros that you buy from kiosks in the street with prensa written on them.
There are also bicycles available on a 'self service' basis at various locations dotted throughout the city called Sevici see http://www.sevici.es/ which the locals use a lot but all the information is only in Spanish so it is a little difficult for foreigners. It seems you need to subscribe for at least 7 days that costs 10 euros and then you pay for the time you use. The first 30 minutes are free, then you pay 1 euro an hour for the first hour and 2 euros the second. The idea seems to be to use them t get from A to B but you need to know where the 'bicycle parks' are before you set off. If you're there for a longish time ad enjoy cycling it would be worth investigating.
As well as any of the good tourist maps, take a cheap compass. There are many short, narrow, alleys, and a compass makes navigation far easier.

Hazardous Surf Conditions for Point Reyes National Seashore for November 28, 2013
Contact: John Dell'Osso, 415-464-5135
The National Weather Service has issued a beach hazards statement for large northwest swells that will approach the coast on Thursday. Swells are expected to build to 8 to 10 feet on Thursday which will translate into larger than normal surf, possible sneaker waves, and rip currents along Point Reyes beaches.
People venturing near the ocean for the holiday should be alert for large waves capable of producing sneaker waves or rip currents which can sweep a person out to sea, especially at Point Reyes Beach North and South.

Mighty River Power continues to produce impressive statistics
as it readies itself for a partial float on the NZX this
year, subject to a final Supreme Court judgement.
The Government plans the partial sale of Mighty River Power,
Genesis Energy and Meridian, possibly all this year, subject
to a final appeal to the Supreme Court by the Maori Council.
The Green Party is also in the final stages of collecting
enough signatures to force a citizens-initiated referendum
seeking to stop the sales. Prime Minister John Key has ruled
out abiding by the referendum, as it is not binding on the
Mighty River Power's operational update for the three months
to December says the company achieved market share gains in
both electricity sales to customers and generation volumes in
the quarter.
Total sales to customers increased by 12% on the previous
corresponding period (pcp), with volumes increasing from
1132GWh to 1272GWh.
The company also had increases in sales volumes to both
residential and businesses customers compared with the pcp.
The majority of the gain came from a 22% increase in volumes
to business customers.
The price of sales to customers remained consistent with the
pcp at $110.53 a MWh, Mighty River Power said.
Total electricity purchase costs fell 27% - from $83.20 a MWh
to $61.14 MWh, reflecting lower wholesale prices and the
increased capacity following Transpower's commissioning of
the North Island grid upgrade project at the end of October.
Total generation increased by 6% compared with the pcp. Hydro
generation was up 13%, reflecting effective use of hydro
storage which had received the benefits from high inflows in
the previous quarter.
Generation at the company's gas-fired power station in
Auckland was down 48% as Mighty River Power responded to
lower wholesale prices in the market.
Wholesale market pricing fell in the quarter as the result of
high national inflows into Mighty River Power's competitor's
South Island catchments. That affected the average price the
company received for its total generational sales which fell
by 19% on the pcp.
However, the price received during the quarter outperformed
the market, supported by the company's flexible portfolio,
particularly the ability to utilise storage and flexible
plant to respond to wholesale market prices, the company
Highlights of the quarter were:
• Electricity sales to customers rose 12%
• Overall generation volumes were up 6%
• Flexible generation let MRP achieve average generation
price of $62.25 a MWh.

HP Prime CAS integratio
As promised in a previous message, here starts some observations on the HP Prime Graphing Calculator.
Take the integration problem of 2 * integral of sqrt(R^2-X^2) with respect to X from -R to R (not in calculator syntax but hopefully in readable form since I can't type in math symbols here), which derives to the area of a circle, on the HP-50g this reduces (EVALs) to pi*R^2 as expected.
However, on the Prime (using 'r' for 'R', and 'x' for 'X'), I get the following error message: "Unable to sort r>(-r)". After Esc to get back to the main screen, the result is 2*r^2*ASIN (r/abs(r)). Note that CAS settings have Simplify=Maximum. Now I can see for r>0, this will reduce to the proper formula for the area of a circle. But why didn't the Prime figure that
out? The HP-50g appeared smarter (?). Or is there a way to put the r>0 constraint somewhere and have the Prime get the same result? Are there ways to put a list of constraints with expressions to help reduce expressions in CAS?
Take a double integration, this time to find the formula for the volume of a sphere, equal to 2 * integral of [integral of sqrt(R^2-X^2-y^2) with respect to Y from -sqrt(R^2-X^2) to +sqrt(R^2 -X^2] with respect to X from -R to R. (whew! an equation editor on this medium would be nice). On the HP-50g, this evaluates to 4*R^3*pi/3 (which is correct).
On the Prime (variables in lower case), I get several pages of error messages (that come faster than I can note)
terminating with the same error as above repeated several times. In the CAS screen the only result is the message "Error: Max order (64) exceeded or non unidirectional series".
Bug(s) or is there something more I have to do?

The HP 50g assumes that R>0. Prime does not, and gives the correct result for any 'r'. In this regard, Prime is "smarter" than the 50g.
If you want to tell Prime to assume that r>0, then in CAS type:
Then you'll get the result you want.
Alternative: Instead of -r and r as the limits, use -abs(r) and abs(r). Same result, without restricting r itself.
Hope that helps!
Re: HP Prime CAS integratio
Thanks Joe for the tip! I would agree with you on the 'smarter' point. The Prime is also a lot faster. The answers are almost instantaneous (compared to several seconds on the '50g).
When I try the tip with the double integral problem (volume of sphere), I still get no where. Still get several screens of error messages and stops in about 15 seconds. Esc'ing back to CAS screen the result is [0 0.000000] for me.

Eternity. Or until you undo it, whichever comes first. There are several ways of undoing an assume( ). Here are a few.
Every use of the assume( ) command overwrites all previous assumptions on that variable. For example, if you say assume(r>0) and then assume(r,integer), the result is only that r is assumed to be an integer; the assumption that it is positive is deleted.
You can always check which assumptions exist for any varaible by using the about( ) command.
If you want to have several assumtions on one variable, use the additionally( ) command. For example, to assume that r is a positive integer, one way is assume(r,integer) and then additionally(r>0).
You can remove all assumptions by specifying just the variable. For example, assume(r) removes all assumptions about r. Although not documented, additionally(r) seems to have the same result as about(r), because it adds no new assumptions and then returns the existing ones.
Setting a variable equal to a number deletes all assumptions on that variable (obviously).
Of course, purge(r) not only removes all assumptions about r but also removes it from the CAS variable list entirely.
Re: HP Prime CAS integratio
I think another way to make a assumptions which is only valid for one calculation is to use the with operator ("|"), for which a template can be found in the math templates (Button with C).
(Please correct me if I'm wrong.)
Tip: you could enter formulas here in the forum by using http://texify.com/ and including the image ("Insert/edit image -> from another site")
Re: HP Prime CAS integratio
Thanks Joe for the great info.
And Stefan, yes the '|' worked. I first did a purge(r) [thanks again Joe] to remove calculator's previous knowledge about r.
Then I copied the integral to the first box of the '|' operator and typed in r>0 in the second (the subscripted box).
I got the same result as when I did assume(r>0).
Cool. Also with the problems still in the history, it was really easy to test this out. A good feature of the Prime.
Re: HP Prime CAS integratio
Hi, DaveTheGuru.
I don't think you're missing anything. I have used HP calculators since the beginning and I've been quite dissapointed with the Prime, especially when compared to the 50g. Here are some thoughts that I sincerely wish were more positive but the Prime is singularly unimpressive:
1. A touch screen should be marketed as, "How to muck up your calculator and scratch the screen." The Prime screen is more delicate and less reliable than the 50g's simpler "no hands necessary" screen and soft keys.
2. S. Jobs was right in this case: Color is a distraction and unnecessary, especially when considering battery drain penalty.
3. A replacement battery is impossible to find and there is no adequate health indicator available for it.
4. Now, a charger must be added to my away bag, whereas I can get batteries for my 50g at the 7-11 on Pluto, if need be.
5. While the Prime is faster than the 50g, it lacks the programming depth of the 50g. There is a lack of programming flexibility in the Prime as compared to the 50g. Is the Prime's speed accelerated by it's simpler language?
6. Pascal/BASIC sucks out loud as a language here, in the real world, especially when compared to the 50g's native language. Associates of mine who are much better programmers than I will ever be see PPL as a disabled-for-the-sake-of-simplicity (or popularity) language. It seems obvious that the Prime was dumbed down in the design phase, otherwise it would have used C as a base language. (C Compiler too large? Aw, shucks! Start over and figure it out... never happened.)
7. !! -> The Prime is lacking a SD port!! Using a computer as a storage medium instead of a SD card means that my high-security data and sensitive programs can now be hacked both while the Prime is plugged in to a computer and when the exported data is at rest, stored on the computer. And it may be possible to hack a Prime directly. (I frequently work with TS and above data on my 50g, and (i) it can't be remote-hacked, (ii) the radiation signature is very low, so it doesn't broadcast significantly to any receptors, and (iii) I can store my sensitive information on SD cards instead of an optional hackable computer system.) While this doesn't apply to many users, especially students, the associates I work with worldwide use 50g which is approved for TS environments. The Prime is not, which means that developmental scientists in many fields working with sensitive data won't touch them with a 10-meter cattle prod.
8. Quite a few of the applications don't work as they are described, or fail in eval. Your examples are excellent, but are the tip of the iceberg.
9. Many of the programs in the User's Guide don't work as shown. I have re-written some of them successfully during coffee breaks, usually with a completely different design approach that yields the same results.
10. With hackable and pre-hacked computers abundant now, think of what a One-Time Pad Cipher program on a 50g can accomplish for hack-proof communications... Yes, I've written a highly successful modular OTPC program on the 50g. Don't try this on a hackable Prime!
11. There is no available language reference covering all the commands on the Prime at this time. There is a commands list available (not from HP), but it has no functionality descriptions. As is well-known, there is a sufficient one for the 50g. How can HP release the Prime without a comprehensive language reference? Was it released a year too early?
And the list is much longer than this, but I don't have that kind of time. The Prime is viewed by most scientists and professionals with whom I have contact in many fields as a toy for students, and not practical for serious work. In fact, one associate even postulated that it was developed by a group of students with very little experience! However, there is entertainment value - it is somewhat amusing to watch it stumble and fail over and over again while attempting basic routines.
If HP is thinking that the Prime is a replacement for the 50g, they're digging in the wrong place. The buried treasure lies in developing the 50g to it's next logical step, not going down the wrong path to a predictable dead end. Flashiness without substance is never important or impressive.
A new version of anything should, in theory, be an improvement over what exists. As far as looking forward to improvements to the 50g, well, as the Zen master said, "We'll see."
Advice? Go out and purchase several 50g's and store them in original packaging.

Collaborative coefficient (CC) is a measure of collaboration in research, that reflects both the mean number of authors per paper as well as the proportion of multi-authored papers. Although it lies between the values 0 and 1, and is 0 for a collection of purely single-authored papers, it is not 1 for the case where all papers are maximally authored, i.e., every publication in the collection has all authors in the collection as co-authors. We propose a simple modification of CC, which we call modified collaboration coefficient (or MCC, for short), which improves its performance in this respect.

What is the reason for such a drop? X-day is TOMORROW..... not today....
Anyway... glad I sold last Thursday.... I know I said I would sell today.... but somehow I got that eeeerrriiiie feeling that I'd better take the money off the table as long as it was there....
Now.... re-enter at $79's....
GL to all.....:o)
Yeah - it's a bummer. I bought a few years ago at about 45 so I've only roughly doubled my money. And with that cost basis I'm only earning 10% annually with the divvies. Buy at about 80 then hold - if that suites your investment objectives
people taking profits before ex div thinking they can time the market and get back in cheaper but in the long run they will come up short very time with a stock like kmp
a 1 1/2% loss is noise and can happen any day on no news.
Nothing 'crazy' about it.
What's crazy is obsessing over small daily price movements and searching for reasons.
Looks like most of the pipeline mlp got hit today
I noticed that KMP filed it 10-Q today. Does anyone know if there was information in it that might be interpreted negatively by the market?
Sentiment: Hold
Another victim of a shakeout. Panicked and sold. Watch next 2 weeks. You will be buying higher

Painful, Frustrating Quest for News From Home
No one was sending money to relatives Wednesday afternoon at TAP Services Corp., a money-transfer company in Flatbush. The neighborhood in Brooklyn, N.Y., is home to a large Haitian community.
"Nothing is working" in Haiti, said clerk Shirley Victor. Her boss, Paul Nicolas, said he had been calling phones in the country for hours and getting no response.
Around 3 p.m., he tried again. "It's ringing for the first time," he said, his ear pressed to a cellphone. But there was no answer. Ms. Victor fretted about not knowing the whereabouts of her 82-year-old mother in Port-au-Prince. "I cannot reach her at all," she said.
The earthquake that decimated Haiti knocked out about half of the country's international communication links. Haiti has about 20 connections running out of the country—by satellite, overland routes through the neighboring Dominican Republic and one fiber link connected to the capital, Port-au-Prince. Two of those were down entirely, and eight were damaged and not operating properly, according to an analysis by Renesys Corp., a network-security company in Manchester, N.H.
What remained was congested with phone calls, tweets, video, emails and texts from Haitians abroad and at home trying to find and share information about loved ones, as well as by rescue groups trying to coordinate efforts.
Social-media Web sites were put to the test by the disaster. Twitter Inc. and Facebook Inc., as in past crises both political and natural, were swamped with messages and photos. Carel Pedre, a deejay and television personality in Haiti, has been regularly updating his Twitter feed, including with images of cars crushed by debris and citizens running from the wreckage in tears.
The largest cellphone provider on Haiti, Digicel, with more than two million subscribers, said its network had been damaged but remains operational. Two staff members were killed in the tragedy, a company spokeswoman said. The company, based in Jamaica, dispatched a team Wednesday morning to assess the damage.
The United Nations Foundation said it has deployed to Haiti a team of about 10 people, together with the U.N. World Food Program and Telecom Without Borders, to help get communication links up and running again. Telecom Without Borders is a nonprofit agency that brings telecommunications services to crisis zones.
"A phone line can be a life-line for moving supplies and getting help to where it's needed most," said Adele Waugaman, a spokeswoman for the U.N. Foundation's technology partnership with the Vodafone Foundation.
"The extent of devastation surpassed our wildest expectations," said Ricot Dupuy, station manager at Radio Soleil, a Creole-language station in Flatbush.
He said he had been trying to reach family members for 15 hours, since the quake hit. His two aunts and cousins are alive. "A niece of mine in Montreal managed to connect with them," he said, by reaching families on home phones. He said there has been intermittent cellphone service. The station has been getting live feeds from Haiti from the only station that has been operating there.
Given the magnitude of the earthquake, Renesys and other network companies were concerned it could damage undersea fiber links across the Caribbean, disconnecting countries and disrupting economies, as was the case following a large 2006 earthquake near Taiwan. That didn't appear to be the case following Tuesday's earthquake.
One reason for that, perhaps, is how relatively unconnected experts say the impoverished country is.
Quake Strikes Haiti
"If you had an event of that size in Miami, most of Latin America would be off the air," said Jim Cowie, chief technology officer of Renesys, referring to the extensive communication links that pass through that city.
A group of graduate students from Boston were in the country for a project on mobile banking when the quake hit. Their classmates in Boston, at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University, were finally able to reach them six hours later, learning all were safe, according to Patrick Meier, a Fletcher graduate student. But there has been no communication since that call Tuesday night, he said.
Mr. Meier also works for a nonprofit company, Ushahidi.com, that compiles online information collected from crisis zones via text, tweet, email or any other method, a technique called crisis mapping.
The Web site, which was started by Kenyans to disseminate news in response to the political turmoil in their country, has been deluged with online information from Haiti, including photos of the destruction and descriptions, said Mr. Meier.
Andre Jean-Baptiste, owner of Impeccable Barber Shop in Brooklyn, said he was able to reach a friend who works in Haiti and talk for two minutes before the line went dead.

'Bigger than the game': Lone Peak football players and cheerleaders grant wishes to 2 terminally ill children
Wirkus instructed Abby and Hunter, who was born with autism and a bilateral cleft lip and palate, to undergo testing at Primary Children's Hospital.
"We took them up and I started crying because this overwhelming feeling of, 'OK it's over.' For some reason I knew we were going to find out," Kathy said. "We got home and Dr. Wirkus called. He said, 'I need you and Don to come in without the kids tomorrow.'"
She lowers her eyes in memory. As if it were yesterday, she clears her throat, unable to mask her heartache, and mourns. "I said, 'I know you know what it is. Will you please tell me? He said, 'I believe it's something called Morquio syndrome.'"
His fears were confirmed. Abby and Hunter were born with Morquio A, an extremely rare, inherited disease that camouflages internal deterioration without necessary, combative enzymes. Those affected develop an array of health difficulties and often live only through adolescence to early adulthood.
"I think you come to the realization that their life span is going to be shorter, but you don't ever accept it," Don says. "From the day we found out we've been preparing for this big window, but I think the closer we get the more sorrowful it's going to be."
Uncertainties plague the household as exhaustion infects the mind. Hardships confined within hospital walls magnify conventional stresses. "It affects everything from your self-worth to anxiety over whether your child is going to live another day," Kathy says.
Collectively, Abby and Hunter have endured more than 40 surgeries, submerging the family into million-dollar medical bills. "Every month we're barely making it," Kathy says. Several times they've struggled to survive invasive procedures. Doctors once placed toe tags and mistakenly asked to harvest organs, assuming they'd been called home.
On a late autumn evening this year, Abby wished she would.
"Abby was crying this one night and I was trying to rock her," Kathy recalls. "I gave her morphine to try and ease the pain. It wasn't working and somehow Wyatt heard her cry. He walked in halfway asleep, put his arms around her, held her and said, 'Abby, I love you. It's going to be OK. I'm here for you and I'm never going to leave you.'
"She said, 'Wyatt, it's so hard. I'm so sorry. I just can't anymore.' He said, 'I need you to do this for me. The pain will ease; just keep breathing.' He stayed up with her until he left for school that day."
That was the day the cheerleaders said, "Come here, Abby."
"The Star-Spangled Banner" finishes minutes before kickoff. It's 7 p.m. on another Friday night. Lone Peak emerges from the locker room as the Harwoods excitedly watch from the grandstands.
Personable and outgoing, Abby initiates a conversation with two bright-eyed boys watching the cheerleaders. "I'll introduce you to some of them," Abby said confidently. Forever, a decision is frozen in time. It was that moment the squad extended an invitation for her to cheer the routines she'd already memorized — permanently.
Uniform included.
"I remember when I was little I'd always look up to the cheerleaders," Alayna Garrity explained. "Seeing her in that position was hard. Why not make her dream?"
"That gave her purpose," Kathy says. "Even in those darkest moments of sheer pain she could keep going. I don't think they realize how she was literally dying. I know very well it does come down to: Are you going to take that next breath, or are you not?"

Maria at the Studio was awesom...Posted: 5/26/2011
Maria at the Studio was awesome! I was so glad that someone mentioned her to me because my daughter's A line actually looked like one after SHE cut it and gave it the actual look. My daughter's hair looked beautiful and professionally cut. I am definitely going back to her and she will definitely now have 4 new clients, my daughter's and myself.
Outstanding Customer CenteredPosted: 7/5/2008
Maria at the Studio is fabulous. She does a variety of styles and color and works with the customer to find that perfect look. She is great with all ages and genders. I've been using her for years and have never been disappointed. Her pricing is reasonable. I would gladly and highly recommend her to any of my family and friends--and I do!!

Eynali was a barren mountain on top of which there was a huge white rectangular antenna facing Tabriz city. The old building was claimed to be a shrine that housed the burial site of an Imamzadeh (a descendant of the profit of Islam). Friday mornings a fairly small group of young males would climb near the shrine. They could not do much due to heavy presence of plain cloth militia members who suppressed any form of mischievous behavior. In recent years trees have been planted around the shrine and the suppression has subsided to a level that the presence of females is noticeable.

Poll Finds Strong Support For Clean Energy, 68% Of Independents Want To Regulate CO2 As A Pollutant
The Yale Project on Climate Change Communication and George Mason University released their most recent survey this week:
The Yale survey, "Public Support for Climate and Energy Policies in April 2013," dates back to 2008 and is an important barometer for public opinion on clean energy and climate issues.
In general, the year's survey finds that support for prioritizing clean energy remains high, albeit with a recent dip, due in part to the increasing polarization of the American electorate.
Still, strong majorities support renewable energy and regulation carbon dioxide as a pollutant.
Here is more from what's in the report, by the numbers:
- 87 percent say President Obama and Congress should make developing sources of clean energy a priority.
- While there are some programs at the federal level that have aided the development of clean energy and transportation, such overwhelming support shows that the government could and should do more. After all, fossil fuel extractors make bad neighbors. Some states are getting the message and clean energy development creates jobs. Colorado recently moved to strengthen its Clean Energy Standard. Other states' clean energy sectors face threats. North Carolina has been fighting off efforts to repeal its clean energy standard this year (that fortunately failed).
- 70 percent say global warming should be a priority for the President and Congress.
- There are billions of reasons to make it one. President Obama has more than three years left to make it a big one.
- 59 percent think the U.S. should cut greenhouse gas emissions on its own — even if other countries do not.
- 33 countries and 18 sub-national jurisdictions will price carbon in 2013. This comprises 850 million people and nearly a third of the global economy. China has a pilot carbon trading program in 7 cities and provinces, and is seriously considering an absolute cap on its carbon emissions. The EU has had one for years. The ball is in America's court, and there are some easy solutions to pursue.
- 70 percent think industry should be doing more to address global warming, and 52 percent think the President should.
- So does Steven Chu, the last Energy Secretary.
- 68 percent want to regulate carbon dioxide as a pollutant.
- Putting a price on carbon finds support in unexpected quarters, such as conservative economists, prominent Republicans, and large corporations.
- 61 percent want to regulate it through a carbon tax on fossil fuel companies that pays down the debt.
- Other polls have found similar support for putting a price on carbon as a way of paying down the debt — yet even larger majorities support making clean energy a priority. The Congressional Budget Office recently released a report making the budgetary case that doing nothing about climate change will cost more than spending money now to regulate carbon.
- 59 percent want to eliminate all fossil fuel subsidies.
- Which is important, as the U.S. is the world's largest fossil fuel subsidizer. It would help the budgetary situation, not to mention help level the playing field for new renewable industries.
- 55 percent support requiring utilities to produce more than 20 percent renewable power, even if it costs more.
- The legislation is there — whether Congress will act is another story.
- 50 percent have not heard of the Keystone XL pipeline.
- Evidently more reporting is required.
Were your opinions reflected in the poll?

We still don't treat this like a "line in the sand."
There are three things that I observed recently. Some are surprised that the idea that people will need better assurances of continued jobs and economic security for their families before they raise the level of attention that they give climate change. Just go back and re-read (since most will have been introduced to it) Maslow re: Hierarcy of Needs. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maslow%27s_hierarchy_of_needs
The second is that rhetoric replaces action as a measure of political worth. We now see this with Governor Brown in CA who talks like a climate-hawk and still approves of the exploitation of oil / gas deposits in Monterey County Shale.
The third is that "if it bleeds it leads" is still true for all media. Just look at the exploitation of the Jody Arias trial, all out of proportion to the real impact those invents will have on anyone other than Arias and the family of the lover she killed. Is this the media that we want? It is the one that seems to be pervasive.
BTW: What happened to the post re: Kolbert and the Keystone XL?
Nice numbers except for the last one. A small "revenue neutral" increase in gas prices would be a good "market based" approach toward increasing energy efficiency and renewable energy. Not sure why people don't see that we need "the opposite" of subsidies for fossil fuels, namely disincentives for their use.
If you vote anonymously on a carbon fee tax, Koch won't be able to spot who voted yes.
The numbers are nice, and would be much higher if we had a free press, instead of six right wing corporations controlling 90% of content.
Actually, it's what the 1% want that counts, and the cash they sprinkle on Congressmen seals the deal.
Sprinkle? ME
It's a euphemism.
Yeah, for laying it on with a trowel, ME
Good old Joe Stalin said it's not who votes that count but who counts the votes.
While these numbers are encouraging in some ways — most people (1) think global warming is real, manmade and a problem, (2) want something done about it and believe that renewable energy is part of the solution and, (3) and are tired of being jacked around by the fossil industry — they have little to do with policy making in Washington.
Look at what happened with the gun control bill. 90 percent of the people were for it, and the Senate couldn't get it done because the NRA lobbyists stood in the way.
However, this does remain a representative democracy. It represents the desires of the 0.5 percent.
I like (/sarc) the last one. Only a minority of those polled can bear a $0.25 tax in the gasoline even with a corresponding decrease in the income tax. Oh boy. I hope this climate change thing isn't an existential crisis.
Because reducing the subsidy costs someone else, not me. Or so it's perceived.
This poll makes it clear: the perception that there's a real difference on Green issues between Democrats and Republicans
is a perfectly accurate one.
