Glossary of statistical terms
Density Functions:
A probability density function or curve is a non-negative function ( ) that describes the distribution of a continuous random variable . If is known, then the probability that a value of the variable is within an interval is described by the following integral
For very small intervals , where is a small value, the relation is simpler:
The reason for using probability density instead of probability itself is the following: Continuous variables, in contrast to discrete random variables cannot be described by the probability of particular values of because there are infinitely many possible values and they are not countable. This makes the probability of any particular value equal to zero. For example, the probability that the body weight of an individual is exactly kilogram is practically zero, but the probability that body weight is within the interval kg is a measurable quantity.
Note that the probability density function is the curve itself, and the probability is the area under the curve.

How should NPR refer to President Bush?Breaking News
Frequently on NPR news shows, reports dealing with the U.S. president refer to him as "President Bush" once, but then all additional references are to "Mr. Bush". This seems unique to the president, as other people with titles are always addressed as Sen. Smith or Dr. Jones, etc. Is there a reason why President Bush does not get the same consideration?
Using the Honorific
The title, such as "President," "Mr." or "Ms.", in front of a name is called an honorific. NPR uses the honorific "President" on first reference and then "Mr." for all subsequent mentions. This has been NPR's style going back at least to the Ford administration. Most other broadcasters have the same policy. It also makes for better writing to vary the honorific.
Newspapers seem to have a different standard. For some reason, the president is usually referred to as "President Bush" or "the president," on first reference. But the honorific is rarely used on second reference. And in newspaper headlines particularly, the solitary "Bush" is often seen.
The president is the only person who -- by decree and tradition at NPR -- gets the honorific. All others who are mentioned in news reports are usually referred to by their title or occupation on first reference ("Jane Doe is a reporter for The New York Times..."). After that, it's surnames only.

Many hosta folk liked variegated folliage. I went to the Collectors Nursery
site for the first time and found (they do have hostas) a peony with
variegated folliage that is a beauty: "Pretty Molly". There is a small
picture of it which isn't much, but there is further information and
several pictures of it on the site. I have to say I WANT IT. I figure if a
hundred of us went in on it we might be able to afford it. I would
volunteer to grow it here in Vermont ( with visiting rights of course). THE
PRICE: $10,000.00 Have a look and let me know. It will be the first hundred
people that contact me. :-)

WOW! despite the other reviews, we chose to stay here and had a completely different experience. So, looking at the fact that we were there "off season" vs the reviews in summer... there must be a big difference in having lots of traffic and messy campers in the summer. We found the place to be very clean and pleasant. There was no trash all around, the water was nice, the fishing was fun and pleasant.
There were a lot of big rigs there and most all of us had some problem with getting leveled (we had to try 5 sites to get one where we could level--- arriving in the dark made it harder). The other rigs had obviously used levelers as well as boards to shore up the rig to level.
The woman running the entrance the night we arrived was very nice; the woman the next day was rude and downright hateful.
Highly suggest NOT driving on around the lake thru the residential area with a motorhome and ESPECIALLY if towing--- very narrow and tight.
We can hardly wait to return and have a boat or kayak with us.
We got local tv (plenty of channels) but had almost no cell service-- Verizon : none, Grandson's ATT was always at 1 bar. - ginger2you
Jun 2015 - $30.00
Not a great place to stay. The main campground is A and B. Those sites were very close and didn't look too level. There was a live band playing on stage both days we were there. We stayed in campground S, which is across the lake from A and B. The music was at a comfortable level for us, but we were ACROSS the lake!! Would have been miserable to be stuck on that side. Note - this was not a publicized concert. We had no idea of the band until they fired up on Friday.
We would stay there again, but only on the S side. Also, this park DOES NOT take reservations, so for us we drive 2 hours with no guarantee of what is available when we get there.
Lake bottom is nasty, gooey mud that will stick you up to your knees. The S sites are right on the water, so not a bad place if you are just using the RV as a base camp for boats or jet skis. No picnic tables or shade included with your site, just a grassy parking spot. Our site was fairly level, but many others were so far off that they couldn't even get close to leveling their trailers. We did get rain, and most of the spots got really muddy, but it is lakefront so that's expected. We stayed in a fifth wheel. We would probably stay there again, just due to location, but definitely not high on my list to go back to. - rm0852

This place is a dump and they don't care. It stays pretty full with locals during summer weekends and that is all they care about. They told me that most of the sewer connections don't work (don't know if they know which do and which don't). Lots of parties (rude, loud, drunks) and trashy grounds are about all it has to offer. - kenlea98

Concrete roads, concrete pads, gravel area with picnic table. Off the 289 Loop so there is traffic noise, not disruptive. Staff are friendly. Daily ground maintenance done.

We called ahead to verify availability for the night and was told to come on, no reservation needed. On arrival the man running the office was friendly and efficient. We didn't want to unhook and he showed us where there were a few restaurants within walking distance. The site was near the office and effectively shielded us from the highway noise which is probably not a problem anywhere in the park. Wifi worked well and several tv stations were easily found with the roof top antenna. We would definitely stop here again when passing through. - Trailbuddy

We have stayed here overnight many times in the past 10 years as we come and go on our travels. It's very convenient with limited 50A service but a few pull-thru spaces long enough to stay hitched up. Just watch the weather as it can get nasty in this part of Texas. - Shadowberr

50 amp did not work properly and it took us over an hour to discover that it was their outlet that was messed up. Could have really caused problems in our RV if we hadn't realized it wasn't our rig that had issues. Gravel road we were told to pull out of was too narrow for our 40 ft rig to navigate causing problems pulling out. We scraped the side of the RV w/ a concrete block "fence" in one space and had to move the timbers in order to get out. The roads are not big rig friendly especially if you are towing. - Texascheetah

Noisy! Park is located across the highway from the airport and at night is on the direct approach path of helicopters. ALL NIGHT helo take offs and landings.
Staff was very friendly, pool was clean, sites were concrete, wide and mostly level, decent playground. There were some shade trees. You get a coupon for WiFi upon check-in that is good for 1 device for 24 hours, after that you can purchase the WiFi. Couldn't connect even after calling the support number. - pokeynpepper

Great location on the west side of Lubbock near the Loop, so it's easy to get around. We stayed in a "nightly" site which was easy to navigate, ample size, cement and level. Utilities worked well although water h/u was below ground and somewhat difficult to connect. No cable and WIFI was sketchy, but the $25 per night was a good deal. We have stayed here before and will stay again when in the area. - Scott & Nancy
Mar 2016 - $25.00
This is a nice spot to stay if visiting Lubbock, TX. The city has grown out around the campground so you are close to everything but it is still quiet in the campground. There are many permanent sites here but they are well kept and no trashy campers. The over night sites are right by the office, pull thru sites with FHU. It looked like there are only a few overnight sites so be sure to call ahead and they will save one for you. AT&T cell and data worked great and Verizon WiFi did too. Ask at the office about WiFi and since you are close to the office they will give you their code to log on and you should be able to get it at your campsite. - jhav

We are staying here short term from December 2015 and plan to stay until May 2016 to visit family. The rate is $230/Month + electricity. There is no cable or WiFi, but we have our own satellite dish and WiFi hot spot, so we didn't notice too much. The Campground is located near everything and still very quiet. The people are friendly and very helpful. We didn't end up with the site we reserved for some reason, so we have no trees, but everything else is good. - The Mastens

We spent one night in a 44-footer with slide-outs and a tow. Richards RV is a small, quiet family-owned RV park a few miles northwest of Lubbock. Most of the residents are long term, but there are two pull-through sites in the front of the park for overnight stays. Both sites are level, partially shaded, easy in/easy out, very spacious and can accommodate any size RV. There is no cable or WiFi, but the rate is reasonable and the location is very convenient if you are traveling along US-84. - Carolynp

First, the good: Close in to town (Lubbock), easy access in & out, easy check in, plenty of room to maneuver & park-set up, easy.
The bad: Dirty showers (hair & soap scum everywhere), bathroom disgusting, WiFi was extremely poor. We called the office to comment, and were told it was because of the wind (I guess the wind there blows those internet waves around like dust, eh?) and because of people streaming. OK, at around 8PM, I can kind of understand that but at 7:15AM? And even if that's the case, for essentialy a cleared caliche parking lot with hook-ups, at $30/night, shouldn't the wifi be at least adequate?
Laundry was $2/load both washer & dryer so to wash and dry one load, $4.
The site photos are misleading at best... the RV park reminds me of an oil field supply business with an office and a large, cleared, caliche parking lot filled with equipment.
But again... it provided us with easy access to town & full hook-ups... a step above staying at a truck stop for the night and as with a truck stop, there was no fire ring, patio table - nothing, nada, zilch for $30/night. - Aus10

We were in the back, new area, and it was very roomy. Nice and easy to park and exit. Pull thru had plenty of room for 44' motorhome and car pulled up after unhooked. No trees in the way. The streets are nice flat gravel. Friendly person at check in. - Donna Hintze

This RV park has worked well for us as an overnight stop during several trips across Texas. Both times we were able to get a long pull-thru space with plenty of room to keep our tow vehicle attached. Staff is friendly, and an escort was provided to our site. WiFi and cable TV worked fine, although the park Internet experienced a typical afternoon/evening slowdown. Twin Pines no longer accepts Passport America. Some sites were provided with a large wooden wire spool in lieu of a table. - The Borgs

The Maternal Child Health Program is starting 2013 by reaching more women in the communities in and around Santiago Atitlan than ever before! This year, we are adding a new component to our education outreach strategy. In order to spread the importance of maternal and child health on a larger scale, we are selecting twenty mothers, dubbed our Family Planning Champions, within our sponsor program to become maternal & child health educators within the community. By appointing these women as community mentors, we can guarantee that the knowledge they continue to gain during Pueblo a Pueblo trainings can flourish and benefit other families beyond our doors.
The mothers we have selected to be our newest team of educators, our Family Planning Champions, have participated in our maternal health programs and trainings for at least three years, and have individually distinguished themselves for their strong participation in our trainings and their desire to be well educated on health related issues for themselves and their families. To prepare these women to become beneficial mentors in their communities, the Maternal Child Health program is preparing Family Planning Champion trainings based on effective peer to peer communication techniques, along with reviewing the importance of family planning and reproductive health issues.
Ultimately, our goal is to educate as many women and families as we can about the importance of maternal and child health. Knowledge is power, and thanks to the educational trainings our sponsored mothers have received, we can continue to spread women empowerment throughout Santiago Atitlan and beyond.
We are so excited to have our Maternal Child Health program progress and evolve, and we couldn't be more thankful for our generous sponsors through GlobalGiving!

Our long term goal is to define molecular mechanism and physiological role of different Ca2+ entry pathways in vascular smooth muscle cell (SMC) function. This proposal is a logical continuation of our successful studies of the store-operated channels (SOC) and Ca2+ entry (SOCE) in vascular SMC. Recently we discovered that the same Orai1 gene can encode channels with profoundly different selectivity, and ADAR1-mediated RNA editing can be a molecular mechanism for versification of Orai1 properties in different cell types. We identified putative RNA editing sites in Orai1 mRNA from primary vascular SMC, and demonstrated that single point mutation (that mimics RNA editing event) can transform Ca2+ selective CRAC into cat-SOC channel. We also obtained evidence that iPLA2b-dependent activation of Orai1 may be crucial for proliferation and migration of primary vascular SMC. Our preliminary studies provided solid conceptual and experimental foundation for our new proposal that is posed to resolve the long lasting controversy about the molecular identity of cat-SOC channels in vascular SMC, identifynew Ca2+ entrymechanisminvolved in SMCmigration, andestablish new molecular mechanisms and targets for treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Our central hypothesis is that RNA-edited Orai1 encodes cat-SOC channels and plays important role in vascular SMC migration. We propose in-depth studies using our integrative approach that involves advanced molecular, biochemical, imaging, electrophysiological and functional characterization of individual molecules and signaling cascades in primary vascular SMC and model cell lines. All approaches and methods are successfully used in the PI's lab. The feasibility of proposed studies is fully justified by extensive preliminary data. We propose:
Aim 1. To determine the molecular mechanism and consequences of RNA-editing of Orai1.. We will test hypothesis that Orai1 is a biological target for ADAR1-dependent RNA editing, will characterize RNA editing events that can change selectivity, glycosylation and other biophysical properties of Orai1-encoded channels, and determine how editing of individual Orai1 subunits affect the properties of Orai1 tetramers.
Aim 2. To identify molecular organization of native cat-SOC channel in primary vascular SMC. We will test hypothesis that RNA-edited Orai1 encodes native cat-SOC channel and will characterize ADAR1-mediated RNA editing and de-glycosylation of Orai1 in primary vascular SMC.
Aim 3. To establish the novel role and molecular mechanism of Orai1 involvement in migration of SMC: We will determine the role and spatial distribution of iPLA2b and Orai1 in migrating SMC and test the hypothesis that Orai1-mediated Ca2+ entry is involved in focal adhesion formation and maturation, and/or force production that enables migration of SMC.
Our long term goal is to define the role of specific ion channels in calcium homeostasis which regulates vascular smooth muscle cell (SMC) function. The goals of this proposal are to determine the role of Orai1 (a specific plasma membrane protein) in encoding native store-operated calcium influx channels, and to establish their physiological role in SMC migration. The feasibility of these studies is fully supported by extensive preliminary data and advanced expertise of PI's lab.

Salma Hayek's Make-Up
Salma Hayek is a lucky woman. She's happily married to the rich French entrepreneur Francois-Henri Pinault and has got a lot to smile about.
Her career as an actress, director, and film producer goes from strength to strength, and she's a favourite of directors like Robert Rodriguez, who has used her in films like Desperado, Four Rooms, From Dusk to Dawn, The Faculty, Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over and Once Upon a Time in Mexico, and Julie Taymour, who directed her in Frida. From the adverts and films, it's clear that Salma Hayek, with her sensual Latin/Middle-Eastern origins, has glamour to burn.
Now she's decided to unveil her own make-up range. The actress is launching her first cosmetics line, an exclusive, limited edition called Nuance Salma Hayek, which will appear in perfumeries from August.
The star was keen to point out that this isn't the usual celebrity perfume or make-up line: she said she was inspired by her Vichy-trained cosmetologist grandmother – and that a lot of work was involved. "This is not something that required 14 hours. Nooo, baby. This has been a full-time job."

What is Financial Need?
Financial Need is more appropriately referred to as financial aid eligibility. It is the difference between the contribution that you and/or your family are expected to make toward your college education – called the Expected Family Contribution (EFC) – and the amount per academic year that we estimate it will cost you to attend VCU – called Cost of Attendance (COA). Students with an EFC less than their COA have need-based financial aid eligibility. If the EFC exceeds the COA, the student is eligible for financial aid that is not based on need.
If I get a private scholarship, what impact does this have on my eligibility for other financial aid?
If you receive a private scholarship, this may impact the rest of your financial aid award since the combination of all financial aid and scholarships cannot exceed your need or your COA. If we must reduce any of your aid, we will first reduce work-study and loans that are offered to you, then other aid. We will mail you a revised award letter to notify you of the changes. If you know that you will be receiving a private scholarship, please contact our office as soon as possible to prevent receiving an overaward, and having to repay aid you have already received.
Does my GPA affect my eligibility for federal or state financial aid?
While federal and state financial aid is need-based, students must maintain certain Satisfactory Academic Progress requirements to retain financial aid eligibility. Specific requirements have been established and are detailed in the section on Satisfactory Academic Progress.
Does the size of a family or the number of students in college at the same time affect the amount of financial aid eligibility?
When there is more than one child in college (undergraduate) at the same time, your family contribution is generally prorated among the college students. You cannot include parents in the number of students in college.
Can I receive financial aid for study during the summer semester?
We advise students to plan early if they plan to attend for both the academic year and the summer semester. Your award must be budgeted over the fall, spring, and summer semesters. Students must file a Summer Aid Application (available in March).

|FW: Webapps, xdoclet and Continuum
|Tue, 06 Dec 2005 14:49:20 GMT
I'm looking for some advice on how to use continuum to build a web application where the web.xml is generated using the webdoclet ran against another project's codebase. I have a parent project with two subprojects which generate a class file jar and a war file: project-parent: ---project-library ---project-webapp The jar contains the servlet code used by the war file. The web.xml file is generated using Kenney's xdoclet-maven-plugin, but has a little quirk to it: the configuration of the webdoclet command has a source directory with a relative path of "../project-library/src/main/java". This works fine for builds in a development environment. But continuum checks out into numbered working directories and the path doesn't make much sense in its build process. Is there a way to tell continuum you want to perform a checkout one directory higher than the pom? Or perhaps a way to perform an xdoclet against a jar file full of sources instead? I'm assuming that the typical manner of doing this is to include the source code in the war project instead. I was avoiding this in the interest of not having the class files sitting in WEB-INF/classes - I prefer another lib entry instead. Kris

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Assistant Regional Director Michael Thabault says over 650,000 comments poured in, and it's going to take them longer than expected to respond. Could Standing Rock Happen In Wyoming? By Melodie Edwards • Dec 16, 2016 Grizzly bear on Swan Lake Flats, Yellowstone National Park; Jim Peaco Last week, the Northern Arapaho tribe issued a statement expressing frustration about being left out of a meeting on removing the grizzly bear from the Endangered Species List. The disagreement has left some people wondering if grizzly delisting could be the Dakota Access Pipeline of Wyoming in which local tribes assert themselves as sovereign nations. Yufna Soldier Wolf is the director of the Northern Arapaho Tribal Historic Preservation Office, which might make you wonder, what's so historic about grizzly bears? GOP Politicians Won't Keep The Sage Grouse From Listing By Matt Laslo • Dec 2, 2016 Bureau of Land Management / Flickr Wyoming Republicans were dealt a setback in their efforts to keep sage grouse off the federal endangered species list. House Republicans were able to include a provision in this year's National Defense Authorization Act that would prohibit the federal government from changing the conservation status of sage grouse for the next decade. But the provision was left out of the final bill when House leaders negotiated a final bill with their Senate counterparts. That didn't sit well with members of the lower chamber. Officials Take Another Step Towards Delisting The Grizzly By Penny Preston • Nov 18, 2016 Amy Gerber A group of federal and state wildlife managers approved the updated management plan for grizzly bear delisting at a meeting in Cody on Wednesday. The Conservation Strategy is a big step toward delisting, since the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has recommended delisting. But, Yellowstone Superintendent Dan Wenk voted against it, and a Sierra Club spokeswoman reminded the group grizzly numbers are declining. Interior Secretary Calls For More Collaboration With Tribes By Stephanie Joyce • Oct 21, 2016 Amy Sisk / Inside Energy The fight over the Dakota Access pipeline in North Dakota has brought to the fore tensions over whether tribes are adequately consulted about development that could affect them. Now, the Secretary of the Interior has issued an order addressing that. Secretary Sally Jewell's order directs agencies, including the Bureau of Land Management, the National Park Service and the Fish and Wildlife Service to collaborate more with tribes on resource management. Wyoming Tribes Say Grizzly Not Ready For Delisting By Melodie Edwards • Aug 2, 2016 nps.gov Wyoming's tribes are skeptical of a Native American wildlife group's plan to expand the range of grizzly bears onto tribal lands throughout the West. Guardians of Our Ancestor's Legacy or GOAL has proposed putting any grizzlies Wyoming considers over its population limit on reservations. Jason Baldes is the director of the Wind River Native Advocacy Center and the son of a longtime wildlife manager on the reservation. He says the Eastern Shoshone and Northern Arapaho tribes are lucky to have lots of great habitat for grizzly bears. Native American Group Urges Feds To Let Tribes Help Manage Grizzlies By Melodie Edwards • Jul 22, 2016 Carol S. Bock A national Native American conservation group says grizzly bears shouldn't be removed from the Endangered Species List, but instead should expand the bear's range onto tribal lands. Ben Nuvamsa is a former Hopi councilman and a spokesman for Guardians of Our Ancestor's Legacy or GOAL. He said the grizzly plays an intricate role in the belief systems of many tribes. On The Brink Of Extinction, Hundreds Of Wyoming Toads Set Free In Laramie Basin By Melodie Edwards • Jun 17, 2016 Melodie Edwards On the shore next to the Buford Ranch pond in early June, clear plastic tubs sit in stacks with little ordinary-looking, brown speckled toads visible inside climbing the walls, trying to escape. And escape is exactly what a crowd of people—private landowners, environmental groups and federal and state agencies—have all gathered here today to help the toads do. 900 Wyoming Toads To Be Released Into Wilds Of Laramie Basin By Melodie Edwards • May 31, 2016 Wikipedia Creative Commons With only a few hundred in existence, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service plans to release over 900 adult Wyoming toads onto land west of Laramie on Wednesday. U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Recovery Coordinator Doug Keinath says there's a lot riding on the release because of how rare this toad is. "It's extremely rare. It's considered one of the most endangered amphibians in North America, if not the most endangered amphibian in North America. It only occurs within the Laramie Basin. So within 30 miles or so of Laramie is the entire global range of the Wyoming Toad." Black-Footed Ferrets Are Hoping To Make A Historic Comeback By Penny Preston • Apr 15, 2016 J. Michael Lockhart / USFWS Wyoming's Game and Fish Department and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service are planning a historic venture this summer. They hope to bring black-footed ferrets back to Meeteetse, where they were found 35 years ago when the species was thought to be extinct. Black-footed ferrets were thought to be extinct in 1981 when John Hogg's dog brought a dead one to his ranch house near Meeteetse. Hogg has since passed away. But, on the 25th anniversary of the ferret's discovery near Meeteetse, Hogg told the story, again. Environmental Group Files Petition To Protect Rare Pocket Gopher By Melodie Edwards • Apr 6, 2016 Wyoming Natural Diversity Database When you think of pocket gophers, you may think of their holes covering large swaths of land. But in Wyoming's Red Desert there's a very rare species of pocket gopher and an environmental group is concerned it could soon become extinct. This week, WildEarth Guardians filed a petition with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to have the Wyoming pocket gopher listed as endangered. Erik Molvar is a wildlife biologist for the group and he says the problem is that the species only lives in a specific brush called the Gardner's saltbush. Federal Court Says Wildlife Agencies Must Protect Wolverine From Climate Change By Melodie Edwards • Apr 5, 2016 Wyoming Game and Fish Wolverines have adapted to live in snowy climates with their snowshoe-shaped feet and alpine snow dens, and some scientists say a warming climate would affect them drastically. But in 2014 the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service dismissed such conclusions and withdrew a proposal to list the species as endangered. On Monday, a Montana judge ordered the feds to revive that proposal. Wyoming Plans To Manage Grizzly Bears By Bob Beck • Mar 18, 2016 WDGF Recently the U.S. Fish and Wildlife service announced that it was moving forward with a delisting of the Grizzly Bear. As part of that delisting Wyoming is to come up with a management plan that could include the hunting of Grizzly Bears. The Game and Fish Commission will soon be holding hearings across the state to discuss that issue. Game and Fish Director Scott Talbott joined Bob Beck to discuss that option. Humane Society Says Grizzly Hunt Would Be Unethical By Melodie Edwards • Mar 3, 2016 commons.wikimedia.org The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service today announced its proposal to remove the Yellowstone area grizzly bear from the endangered species list. In his announcement, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Director Dan Ashe called the plan a triumph. "This population of bears has increased by more than 500% since efforts to conserve the bear began in 1981 from as few as 136 bears to probably over 1000 today." USFWS Proposes Delisting Yellowstone Grizzly By Penny Preston • Mar 3, 2016 nps.gov Wyoming experts were cautiously optimistic Thursday when they learned the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is proposing that Yellowstone Grizzly Bears be removed from the endangered species list. Grizzly bears were listed for decades, before they were removed from the list in 2007. A judge put them back under federal protection in 2009. Now, just as grizzly bears are starting to emerge from their dens, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service says it's recommending delisting again. Draft Of Management Plans For Delisted Grizzlies Causes Concern Among Animal Rights Groups By Caroline Ballard • Jan 7, 2016 National Digital Library of the United States Fish and Wildlife Service A draft of a tri-state grizzly management and hunting practices agreement between Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming has been making the rounds on media sites, prompting outcry from some animal rights groups. The memorandum plans for a possible delisting of the grizzly bear from the endangered species list by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. It sets population goals, target mortality rates, and, most controversial, percentages of the management area outside the national parks that could possibly be used for hunting grizzlies. 58 percent of the hunt would occur in Wyoming. Fed's Letter Proposes Delisting Grizzlies At The First Of The Year By Melodie Edwards • Dec 9, 2015 National Digital Library of the United States Fish and Wildlife Service Even as Yellowstone grizzly bear numbers drop, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service says it may announce their delisting from the Endangered Species List as early as January 1st. In a letter to Western wildlife agencies, the agency agreed to allow the number of bears to decline from 714 down to 600 for hunting or livestock conflicts. Below that, they could only be killed if they were a danger to people. The Center for Biological Diversity attorney Andrea Santarsiere says it's not time to let state's take over grizzly management. The Pros And Cons Of Not Listing The Greater Sage Grouse By Melodie Edwards • Sep 25, 2015 Melodie Edwards You might have heard a strange sound this last Tuesday morning around 10 a.m. It was a sigh of relief from ranchers, oil and gas workers and miners all over the West at the announcement that the greater sage grouse won't be listed as an endangered species. But you probably also heard the slapping of foreheads from wildlife advocates who say the grouse needs full federal protections if it's going to survive. Northern Arapaho Stand Behind Right To Take Eagles For Ceremonies By Melodie Edwards • Sep 2, 2015 Ten years ago, a young Arapaho man was charged with killing an eagle without a permit for a Sun Dance ceremony. The Northern Arapaho tribe decided it was their duty to stand behind any tribal member legitimately practicing their tribal religion and a federal court agreed with them. But now, the United States is appealing the decision. In a recent press release, Northern Arapaho Chairman Dean Goggles says quote "eagles are an important part of [the tribe's] most sacred ceremonies" and says the decision to take an eagle is never undertaken lightly. Plague Vaccine Could Bring Black Footed Ferrets Back To Meeteetse By Penny Preston • Jul 10, 2015 Commons A plague vaccine might help bring one of the most endangered mammals in North America back to Northwest Wyoming where they were discovered. Black Footed Ferrets may be restored to the Pitchfork Ranch near Meeteetse, because their food, prairie dogs, are coming back. Saratoga National Fish Hatchery Celebrates 100 Years By Caroline Ballard • Jul 2, 2015 U.S. Fish And Wildlife Service The Saratoga National Fish Hatchery celebrates its 100th anniversary this weekend. It is managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and attracts around 3-thousand visitors a year. It raises both native and non-native trout species for stocking lakes and rivers and works with conservationists to protect endangered Wyoming Toads. Ryan Moehring is a spokesman for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. He says the hatchery will be hosting some special events in honor of the centennial. Officials Are Optimistic About Sage Grouse Protection Plans By Bob Beck • May 29, 2015 Bob Beck Secretary of Interior Sally Jewel came to Cheyenne to announce a massive plan to conserve Sage Grouse habitat in several western states. Wyoming started its own conservation efforts in 2007 and Jewel says it is a model state. The question is whether the federal efforts can keep the Sage Grouse from being placed on the endangered species list. WyoFile Reporter Says State's Sage Grouse Plan Must Prove Its Adaptability By Melodie Edwards • May 1, 2015 Department Of Wildlife It's been five years since Governor Matt Mead signed an executive order giving special protections to the state's greater sage grouse populations. Now that order says it's time to re-evaluate the plan and make sure it's actually doing its job. The goal is to convince the U.S. Fish and Wildlife not to list the grouse as an endangered species come September 30. Public Comment Period Opens for Reintroduction of Black-Footed Ferret to Wyoming By Erin Jones • Apr 10, 2015 Ryan Hagerty / USFWS The U.S. Fish and Wildlife is asking people to weigh in on a proposal to designate Wyoming as a special area for the reintroduction of the endangered black-footed ferret. Fish and Wildlife would work with the Wyoming Department of Game and Fish to release the endangered predator onto the property of landowners who volunteer. Fish and Wildlife representative Ryan Moehring says that landowners will likely be eager, since the black-footed ferret's sole diet is prairie dogs. Secretary Jewell Responds To Omnibus Rider By Melodie Edwards • Jan 29, 2015 Secretary of the Interior Sally Jewell has fired back at a federal provision banning the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service from placing the sage grouse on the endangered species list for one year. The provision was a rider in the omnibus spending bill, passed last month. US Fish And Wildlife Service Proposes Plan To Boost Numbers Of Wyoming Toad By Caroline Ballard • Dec 3, 2014 USFWS Mountain-Prairie / Flickr The endangered Wyoming Toad's population numbers could get a boost from a new plan from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The Wyoming Toad is the most endangered amphibian in North American, and lives only in Albany County. The toad's numbers started decreasing in the 1970s, for reasons mostly unknown. Now, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has proposed a plan that would allow landowners in key habitat areas to either sell their land to the agency, or forfeit future development rights to their land in return for financial reimbursement and habitat monitoring. Poll Says Public Opinion Favors Protections For Sage Grouse By Caroline Ballard • Nov 11, 2014 commons.wikimedia.org Wednesday is the deadline for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to decide whether or not to list the Gunnison Sage Grouse, a sub-species that's struggling in Colorado and Utah, under the Endangered Species Act. Interior Secretary Signs Sage Grouse Conservation Agreements With Wyoming Ranchers By Melodie Edwards • Oct 24, 2014 Melodie Edwards Last week, Interior Secretary Sally Jewell was in Pinedale, taking part in a ceremony to sign up Wyoming ranchers to help protect sage grouse. These conservation agreements are called Candidate Conservation Agreements with Assurances or CCAA's. They're supposed to protect the birds on private lands, but as Wyoming Public Radio's Melodie Edwards reports, some wildlife advocates question whether the program really has the teeth to make a difference. Wyoming Loses Latest Wolf Battle And Could Ponder A Congressional Fix By Bob Beck • Sep 30, 2014 Despite an emergency rule that put Wyoming's wolf management plan firmly into law, a federal judge refused to change an earlier ruling that placed Wyoming wolves back on the endangered species list. Washington D.C. based U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson sided with environmental groups who argued that Wyoming's management plan, which allows wolves to be shot on sight in most of the state, failed to adequately protect wolves. Judge Rules Against Wyoming On Wolf Status By Associated Press • Sep 30, 2014 A federal judge has denied requests from the state of Wyoming, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and pro-hunting groups to change a decision last week that reinstates federal protections for wolves in the state. U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday denied requests to change her ruling. Pages1 2 next › last »

Sony NEX-6 Review

6 Menus
|7 Next
NEX-6 Menus
The NEX-6's menu system is essentially the same as that of the more expensive NEX-7, with just minor changes. Now that the NEX-6 has a physical mode dial, there's no longer a need for a virtual one, so that option has been removed. The new addition is for accessing what Sony calls PlayMemories Camera Apps, which are add-ons which you can download to the camera via Wi-Fi or USB (more on that later).
|Pressing the 'Menu' button first brings up this entry screen. The menus are divided into six sections, but it can take quite some time to familiarize yourself with where each option lives - the ordering isn't entirely intuitive.
|By default, the NEX-6 provides descriptions of most menu items.
The NEX family's most annoying characteristic is the labyrinthine interdependency of the available menu options. Depending on your current settings, certain options will appear greyed-out and unavailable - for example you're not allowed to configure focus peaking in the Custom menu unless the focus is set to MF in the Camera menu.
To its credit, the NEX-6 will generally tell you why options are greyed out (assuming that you have the Help Guide turned on), but it still forces you to navigate to the conflicting option, modify it, then return to the setting you wanted to change in the first place. And, in some cases, it will sullenly inform you 'This function is currently disabled', offering no hint as to why. Mercifully once you've worked out how you want to set the camera up for everyday shooting, and have configured the soft keys to your satisfaction, you can ignore the menus almost completely.
Another issue with the menu system is that a lot of scrolling is involved. Combine the long list of options and a large font and you'll be spinning the dials on NEX-6 quite a bit.

Most options set via the Camera menu use a 'virtual dial' on the live view display, with options set using the soft keys. Exiting these takes you directly back to live view, rather than to the menu itself, which some users may find irritating.

I own it
I want it
I had it
Discuss in the forums
Maybe an old subject...has anyome fhotshoe adapter to allow 3.5...or 2.5 mic jack other than sonys on
Y external microphone?
Which camera would compete well with the nex 6..?
Any opinions greatly appreciated.
I originally wanted to invest in a canon 700 d ( just missed out on a greal deal on the 600d ) but the fact tthat the viewfinder is optical swayed me.
Is there an all round dslr for amatuers coming from a bridge version with the following...
Decent lens ( perhaps a Compact system type ) mid range 18-55mm or a little more
High ISO
Flip screen, preferably one which can actually swivel round to take portraits...
Touch screen is NOT necessary
And of course a decent battery which the camera makes tend to overlook...
I feel Canon have lost sight where Nikon is concerned whereas Sony and Lumix seem to have come a long way and are doing what Olympus did in the 70s and the 80s...
Again, any thoughts on the above..?
I am just about to purchase this camera on the basis that I can return it within 15 days if unhappy...
I thought I had done my homework when decidng on the nex 6 but I am unable to find out if it is possible to override the function of having the screen on.
It seems that the EVF switches on automatically when you place your eye close up to the corner of the camera ( thrus the screen goes off...) and the screen does the same when you move away from the EVF.
To my surprise there is quite a 'waste' of battery time...
Living in a sunny country means the use of an EVF is much more practical.
Can anyone give any tips on how to make the battery last longer.
Ideally, taking three on trips is practical. An external charger is wise too.
And the pc method when on the go is practical as well. Nevertheless, total control over the screeen makes sense nowadays.
I share your point too photosym. That does not make sense as a selling / marketing point. Is this the case with most sony cameras??
I don't know who designed this camera, but it certainly wasn't an active photographer. It would be a superb machine, but there's a massive design flaw. You can't use the self timer or an electronic shutter release when in HDR or Auto bracketing modes. Absolutely crazy!!! I've been in touch with Sony and they don't have any plans for a firmware update. I'm not sure if this applies to other Nex or Sony models, but be aware. This is the last Sony camera I will buy, I'll stick to Canon or Fuji in the future.
I agree with you photosym. This would be a great camera, but it is really useless in the respect of remote control bracketed photography. The remote control is useless when you can't have timers, and other manual settings. It is a shame.
I just bought a Sony nex 6. What a amazing camera. Yes you can use HDR and Auto Bracketing with a remote. At list via wifi with my android phone and ipad. Better than the Leica M digital. With more options. As a reporter I love this camera.
I ordered the new SHURE VP83F LensHopper Camera-Mounted Condenser Microphone with Integrated Flash Recording for this camera and it's std size shoe mount to record and video shoot indoor stage Band performances.
Anybody else tried an external mic mounted to this camera.
I just unboxed my Sony alpha Nex6 a few minutes ago.
I have several Panasonic Lumix's and a Canon Rebel.
The Sony, however, is the first camera I've encountered whereby I cannot simply recharge the battery in a compact charger!
Instead I have to connect a wire from the camera into the charger and thence into a wall socket meaning I cannot have second backup battery.
If I'm on vacation I can't simply leave a battery charging at a hotel room and go out and use my camera with a second battery.
I have to leave the WHOLE camera behind to charge!
Am I missing something here? It seems VERY odd.
you can buy original sony charger, I have it but i leave hotel with both batteries charged anyway :) in-camera charging is also great, do your all previous cameras have such feature?
+1, I wish Canon and others would add this feature. While external chargers are vital for certain uses (long trips with brief access to power for example) internal chargers are WAY more convenient. Just bring a USB cord and your iPhone's USB->power adapter and you can plug in your camera to suck some juice whenever you have the chance.
I certainly don't hear people complaining about how the batteries in their phones work these days, we just need to get used to the same thing with cameras (especially the "grab some juice while you can" part, don't wait for it to empty out!)
Just to update this, I didn't realize that you can't use the camera at all while it's charging (mentioned in an Amazon review). That's a very tedious element of this equation if it's true. I can imagine a LOT of situations where I'd want to review photos, make picks or just mess around with the camera while charging it.
It should "work like your phone" like I said in the comment above, if you can't use it while it's charging that's not like a phone. Of course, it IS like every camera previously if you only own one battery ;)
Any number of aftermarket and also (expensive but sure) Sony's spare battery and chargers will add external charging and spare batteries. Safe reliable aftermarket ones are not that expensive and will provide a much more convenient way to refresh the power than with having only one battery. I usually have up to 3-4 batteries always on hand for any primary cameras, two of which are always on the charger during vacations.
I guess in this market for consumer price wars, Sony can't include expensive batteries in the original bundles, at cut-rate prices, nor confuse the ever impatient general consumer who just wants things simple?
LOL I love charging direct to camera, and yes we need to buy extra external charger, but you can just buy cheap chinese charger for around 10-15 USD, with that I can charge 2 battery at the same times, and also I can charge with powerbank when it need.
Can anyone please explain me if I can add an PANASONIC 20mm f1.7 II pancake to this camera? Is it fully compatible?
No that lens is microfour thirds only. This only takes NEX lenses. That is Sony E-mount
Direct mounting is only with SONY E-Mount Lenses, however you have the option to add a LA-EA2 or LA-EA4 adapter to use any Sony A-mount lenses with full Auto Focus features intact. This is also true for all AF Minolta Lenses that use the A-mount as well.
Also, with aftermarket mounting adapter solutions, almost any SLR lenses can be used with MANUAL focus. Canon lenses can operate with some adapters with limited AF functions as well.
Can I use my canon 18-200 on the sony . Has anyone done it and how does it handle?
I personally do not agree about adding a touchscreen to the NEX line of cameras. I simply don't like touchscreen and I know a lot of people that feel the same way.
Seriously what an odd thing to be worried about. As long as you can disable it why deny it to those who would find it helpful?
Sony continues without fail, to make ugly-looking cameras.
You are joking, right?
this is subjective

@GraphicNovelty, which was the one you gave me when I was over?
@GraphicNovelty, I think you gave me the berry one actually. It was pretty good. I'm going to buy a box or two as a joke gift for one of the surgeons I work for. Well. Maybe a few bars. 2 boxes is like 60 bucks!
Yeah. I work in higher rep ranges though. I was doing like 3-4 sets of 10-12 with 120's. My back was pretty jacked. I actually haven't been doing rows lately at all since they got new benches. They're too fucking low. It sucks.

PhD University of Victoria
I currently hold a half-time limited term position with the University of Victoria funded through the Hakai Institute (http://hakai.org/).
My academic research interests are focused on the Northwest Coast culture area of North America. I am particularly interested in the unique position of archaeology in the social sciences and humanities at providing a long-term perspective of history.
My research focuses on the similarities and differences between archaeology, oral history, and paleao-environmental research and how historical reconstructions produced through these diachronic fields can be contrasted and compared to produce mosaics of the past.
The research methods that I tend to employ include a combination of archaeological and palaeo-environmental techniques. Much of the archaeological research I am involved in focuses on inventory techniques and prospection using augers, coring devices, and limited excavation.
The results of this type of research generally provide a regional-scale perspective. I have undertaken palaeo-environmental research that includes isolation-lake basin coring. Samples from this are then analyzed for indicators of sea level change (diatoms) and the development of vegetation communities through time (pollen).
As I consider archaeology to be an historical discipline, my research methods pay special attention to dating deposits and material through absolute and relative techniques.

Current projects
The Hakai ancient landscapes archaeology project
The Hakai Ancient Landscapes Archaeology Project is funded through the Hakai Beach Institute located on Calvert Island (Central Coast of British Columbia). This area is in the territories of the Heiltsuk and Wuikinuxv First Nations. The purpose of this project is to gain insights into the human inhabitation of the region over the last 15,000 calendar years. The project is designed to gather regional scale archaeological and palaeo-environmental data since the last glacial maximum.
A primary goal of the project is to look for and investigate archaeological sites dating to the late Pleistocene and early Holocene epochs. This approach is being assisted by a program of study designed to provide details on the sea level history of the region through isolation lake basin coring and diatom analysis. Once post-glacial relative sea level curves have been established, archaeological survey will focus on prospecting for sites along inland relict shorelines. It is anticipated that this work will be assisted by a high precision digital elevation model derived through LiDAR or digital photogrammetry. Archaeological inventory will also seek to test inland targets that past populations would have been likely to use.
In addition to the concerted effort to find early period archaeological deposits, our mandate includes recording and revisiting sites from all time periods. Archaeological site types and features that have been documented to date include: shell middens, pictographs, petroglyphs, lithic scatters, fish traps, canoe runs, clam gardens, water-logged deposits, culturally modified trees, house platforms, defensive locations, and rock shelters.
Where long-term or early period archaeological deposits are suspected to occur, we have employed limited subsurface testing methods (coring and augering) to gather initial samples for dating and analysis. Where our dating results confirm the existence of long-term or early period archaeological deposits our research methods include limited subsurface testing through trowel excavated 1 x 1 m units.
Ultimately the goals of this research are to gain a regional perspective on the long-term human inhabitation of the landscape. A vital aspect of this project is to highlight, where possible, aspects of continuity in the archaeological record. Where long-term continuity is reflected in resource use or tool type manufacturing, it provides insights into cultural aspects that are diachronically successful. This approach departs from goals often adopted by archaeologists which highlight and attempt to explain change in the archaeological record and who privilege patterns of change over continuity.

For a man who lost the lead of the world drivers' championship for the first time on Sunday afternoon - though he is equal on points with the Chinese Grand Prix winner, Ferrari's Michael Schumacher, the German has had one more win - Fernando Alonso, of Renault. remained remarkably upbeat yesterday about his chances of retaining his crown and denying Schumacher an eighth title as the circus heads to Suzuka, Japan, this weekend. But the Spaniard called on his tyre-makers, Michelin, to give him something more for the races in Japan and Brazil.
"This [the Chinese Grand Prix] was a difficult race for the team because we lost a very good opportunity," he said. "I built up a good lead in the first 20 laps, but my front tyres were badly worn - and the conditions were difficult as the track was drying very slowly. We made the decision to change the fronts for a new pair, and it was the wrong one - as we saw with 'Fisi' [his team-mate, Giancarlo Fisichella] and Michael, who kept all four tyres on the car and were much quicker.
"After that, the only thing we could do was go to dry tyres as early as possible - and hope to catch up the time to Michael. In the end, there were not enough laps left. So it was a bad day, but this is a fantastic fight for the championship, and I go to Japan feeling really confident. We had the quickest car today, and we have two more good chances to win. I believe we can do it.
"For Suzuka and Brazil we need to believe in our tyres. At the moment both cars, the Renault and the Ferrari, seem very similar in terms of performance."
Germany's Bild newspaper, the country's best-selling daily newspaper, who had all but written off Schumacher's hopes when he trailed Alonso by 25 points in July, led the country's celebrations yesterday, inventing a new compound term for his heroics. "Schumisupermega-turbogeilgöttlichgigagalaktisch!" [Schumi super mega turbo cool divine giga galactic] the paper wrote in a headline, continuing: "He showed the world who's the best, cuts Alonso to shreds and shuts [Renault's team principal] Flavio Briatore's trap."
For his part, Briatore does not believe the fight is over. "We are all very sorry for Fernando," he said. "He was simply fantastic, and dominated in both the wet and the dry. After a performance like that, there is nothing more frustrating than to see a win slip through your fingers. Looking further ahead, though, we had the quickest car today and both championships are equal. We know we have the team and the performance to win."
The engineering chief, Pat Symonds, agreed. "We are making no excuses," he said. "This is a race we should have won, because the Renault and its Michelin tyres were dominant in all conditions. The fact we did not do so is intensely frustrating for the entire team.
Fernando drove brilliantly from the start, and as we approached the first stop, told us on the radio that his front tyres were very badly worn. In consultation with Fernando and Michelin, we decided to change them - and leave the rears on. It soon became clear that the track was drying quickly, and that the decision had been the wrong one. As a result, we took the risk of stopping very early to switch Fernando to dry tyres - in the hope he would be able to gain time on the leaders. A delay in that pit stop cost us more time: we know that the nut fell out of the wheel gun, but not yet why. Afterwards, Fernando once again drove fantastically to close in on Michael, but we simply ran out of laps.
"The Michelin tyres were superior in the wet and the dry today, and it was easy to get the best out of the car in the changing conditions. We now go to the final races with renewed confidence."
Honda's test driver Anthony Davidson will join his fellow Britons Jenson Button and David Coulthard on the grid next year when he joins Takuma Sato in the Super Aguri Honda team. It is expected that the news will be announced in Tokyo this week, before Sunday's Grand Prix.
