I use managed C# wrapper for playing mp3 files with my ASUS 636 PDA.
FMOD.PPC.Init(44100, 16, 0);
IntPtr soundStream = FMOD.PPC.GetStream(currentSoundTrack);
soundHandle = FMOD.PPC.Open(soundStream, 0x100| 0x10 | 0x40, 0, 0);
int error = FMOD.PPC.GetError();
currentSoundLength = FMOD.PPC.GetLength(soundHandle);
After "Open" call I check error code and it is: FMOD_ERR_FILE_FORMAT
But selected file is successfully played with WindowsMedia player.
What is wrong??
Thank you

It is not a valid mp3.
It just has a bunch of crap at the start probably, and windows media player searches further than fmod's 4k default.
If it fails, try re-calling FSOUND_Stream_Open but increment 'offset' by 4k.

THE MOST IMPORTANT THING FOR JUDAISM IS TO HAVE A FUTURE! - that bright, educated, vibrant, enthusiastic Jews should WANT to remain Jewish - marry Jewish - bring up their children Jewish - in a committed-to-Judaism home.
WE BELIEVE THAT NOTHING IS MORE IMPORTANT FOR THE FUTURE OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE THAN REACHING OUT TO THE "BORDERLINE COMMITTEDS" - The young people who like being Jewish well enough - but they're not committed in a deep, firm, full, enthusiastic way. They'd (almost) be just as happy to marry a non-Jew as a Jew.
This is BAD NEWS for the future of Judaism. - (We know this is not news to you - we know that. But we're trying to get you on board with our program - so you'll help support us - in whatever way you can - because we believe our program is so important...)
THESE ARE THE JEWS THAT KEHILLAH WANTS TO ATTRACT, INTRIGUE and BEGIN THE EDUCATION PROCESS WITH....
Our plan is to REACH OUT to these Jews - (and the teachers, professors,doctors and lawyers (and even the parents) they look up to) - WHERE THEY LIVE - in the publications they read - with our ADVERTISE TO EDUCATE - plan.
Please take a look at our PRO-JUDAISM AD CAMPAIGN.
And read about Our Mission - Our Plan.
And - most of all - SUPPORT US! - in whatever way you can - so that we can do what needs to be done.
As we say, we believe it's THE MOST IMPORTANT THING FOR THE FUTURE OF JUDAISM. There is NOTHING that's more important - (and we know we don't have to tell you that...)

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Leaders of the Conservative Jewish movement opened the door on Wednesday to the ordination of gay rabbis and the recognition of gay marriage, but made it clear the more orthodox in the faith may go on opposing such liberalization.
"We as a movement see the advocacy of pluralism and we know that people come to different conclusions," said Rabbi Kassel Abelson, speaking for the 25-member Rabbinical Assembly Committee on Jewish Law and Standards which issued a series of advisory reports.
"These ... are accepted as guides so that the gays and lesbians can be welcomed into our congregation and communities and made to feel accepted," he added.
The statements issued by the committee are not binding on congregations or seminaries. One said openly gay people should be allowed as rabbis and that "committed gay relationships" can be recognized but not blessed. That statement also retained the prohibition in the Torah (the Five Books of Moses) against male homosexual intercourse.
In a separate vote the group also upheld a 1992 statement that advises against gay ordinations and the recognition of same-sex marriages. The result is a mixed approach that will allow both liberals and the more orthodox in the movement to pursue whichever policies they prefer.
With so much left to the institutions' and congregations' discretion, the issue was likely to go on stirring controversy in the movement.
Four members of the committee resigned after the statements were issued, saying they opposed the methods used to reach the conclusions in the paper liberalizing gay rabbis.
There are perhaps 6 million Jews in the United States, only about a third of them affiliated with a congregation. Of those who do attend synagogue 38 percent are Reform, 33 percent Conservative and 22 percent Orthodox, according to one survey.
The Conservative movement holds the middle ground between liberalism and orthodoxy and the gay issue is a matter of division within it, as is the case with many other faiths.
Rabbi Jerome Epstein of the United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism in New York, asked what backing the two differing views might have, said: "Based on the e-mails and phone calls we have been receiving my guess is that it's very close to an even split at the moment."
Rabbi Elliot Dorff of the University of Judaism in Los Angeles said each of the rabbinical schools would hold their own discussions on the papers accepted by the council.
"I imagine each of the seminaries will handle it differently," he said. ""My guess is that within the next several weeks we will be announcing that our rabbinical school will be open to gays and lesbians because we have already had this discussion"
Rabbi Joel Meyers, executive vice president of the Rabbinical Assembly, said rabbis who so desire could start performing commitment ceremonies recognizing gay relationships immediately.
Levitical Law is clear, Rabbi.
Israeli Court Orders Government to Recognize Gay Marriage
In a landmark 6-1 decision, Israels Supreme Court ordered the government to begin recognizing gay marriages. The move is widely perceived as peace offering to the Muslim community.
The polygamy permitted under Islam allows the powerful and wealthy to take a disproportionate share of the women off the marriage market, the court said in its ruling. This leaves weak and poor Muslim men with no access to a normal heterosexual union. Sodomy, bestiality and suicide bombing become the default options. By allowing homosexual unions maybe we can head off a greater evil.
The court expressed a willingness to consider recognizing inter-species marriages if the appropriate case could be brought to its attention. The companionship of a goat or ewe may be the best some of these social misfits can hope for, the court continued. If these man-beast relationships can be normalized under the law the urge to rape or kill may be diminished.
A poll of single Muslim men revealed that 32 percent hoped to find a womaneven a fat or ugly one--to wed. They are covered in public, so no one knows you have an ugly wife, said Abdullah Mushwah, a poll respondent from Bethlehem. If you have sex in the dark even the husband doesnt have to see her face. They can also cook. Although they do complain more that a goat or sheep.
Thirteen percent say they already have a male lover they would like to marry. Goats are favored by 5 percent, sheep by 4 percent. Other livestock garnered a 2 percent share. Thirty-five percent professed themselves satisfied with raping whores.
Nine percent said they werent sure which option was best. The options for a poor man are all bad, said Muhar Kalidath, a respondent from Jerusalem. Martyrdom and the virgins sound good, in theory. But a goat is a sure thing and not expensive. I find it difficult to decide.

I think so too.
No thanks, I've seen enough!
"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." -Manuel II Paleologus
Except that they are not real Rabbis.
Conservative Judaism is an offshoot of Reform Judaism. It was formed by Reform Jews who wanted something of a "return to tradition," but didn't want to go all the way back to being Orthodox. I believe the Conservatives can still be fairly "liberal" politically.
Of the six million Jews in the United States....only two million go to synagogue. Of that two million only 500,000 are actually real Jews. The rest are just leftist liberal democrats.
Either that or simply become less involved.
My understanding is that "Conservative Judaism" is actually more liberal than the reformed branch. Perhaps someone with more knowledge of this could help clarify this.
It would seem that the term 'conservative' is taking quite a beating these days. Put me down into the ultra-orthodox American catagory, please.
"Goats are favored by 5 percent, sheep by 4 percent.."
Don't forget the jackalope out here in Colorado. Very popular with your "alternative lifestyles" crowd!
I hang out with Chassidic Jews so I can tell you that the Orthodox consider them all to be real Jews (except for Conservative and Reform converts). It's Conservative and Reform Judaism that they don't consider to be Jewish.
It must be the Democrats in their congregation speaking for the rest. (s)after all religion is relative to society's needs.(/s)
That is why and how they may win. They believe and observe their beliefs.
Perhaps they should call themselves "Rabbies."
They are "Pagans in the Pulpit"
I've been to a couple Conservative services and thought there was some political correctness evident in the rabbis' postures. Also the prayer book. OTOH, I heard one Conservative rabbi really blast Bill Clinton from the pulpit, during a discussion on honesty and morality.
This is rediculous: I don't think The Almighty is happy: Leviticus strictly prohibits sexual sin including perverted sodomite sin.
Just so. If your parentage is Jewish, or at least if your mother is Jewish, then you are a Jew, because the Jews are a Chosen People. Jews can disobey the law and refuse the Covenant, which to the extent it is deliberate makes them bad Jews, I suppose.
Or someone can become a Jewish convert, if it is done properly by an Orthodox rabbi.
In much the same way, once a Catholic, always a Catholic, although you can choose to become a bad Catholic or an apostate Catholic. But from the Catholic point of view, baptism and reception into the Church cannot be simply undone.
Anybody check out Mike Savage and his rant on this subject Conservative Jews ok gayrabbs?
He got pre-empted on Chicago's WIND am560 and WSAW am 550 for state basketball but could be heard later on WWL New Orleans am 870 going on about H.A.Baker. Found interesting review on Baker and posted it in http://www.theusmat.com
It seems that the gay agenda is a trojan horse (no pun intended) that the left uses to gain full control of the various religious organizations. Some self-proclaimed "moderate" seeks "dialog" about "issues over which honest people can disagree" and then watch out! As soon as some committee votes 51% in favor of a leftist position, all talk about "dialog" goes away and the more conservative members quit or are forced out and the far left has complete control of that denomination.

Sounds like conservative Jews aren't that conservative after all. If I were a conservative Jew, I'd be looking for the nearest Orthodox community about now.
That was their stated objective back in the 80s.
Check the summary in comment #10.
Here's the link, duh:
After the Ball--Why the Homosexual Movement Has Won
There already are gabbis. A gabbi is a syngagouge lay leader responsible for doling out honors (such as who gets to carry the Torah) and making sure services run smoothly (i.e. approaching people who are talking or behaving inappropriately and getting them back in line).
I'm sure you were being facitious, but I just thought I'd give you a bit of education.
Not quite. American "Conservative Judaism" basically formed from two groups -- Reform Rabbis who were disgusted with the liberalness of Reform Judaism, and formally broke with Reform after non-kosher food was served at a Hebrew Union College commencement, and more traditional Jews who observed Halacha. At the time (late 19th century) there was no organized "Orthodox" movement, and the burgeoning Conservative movement grew to fill that role. Many synagouges that are today Orthodox, such as the prestigious Spanish-Portuegese synagouges in Philadelphia and New York were instrumental in forming Conservative institutions such as the Jewish Theological Seminary ("JTS").
During the early half of the 20th Century, there was no practical distinction between the Conservative movement and what today would be called Modern Orthodoxy. My childhood rabbi, for example, attended JTS on scholarship and then returned to serve his extremely traditional community in Calcutta, India for twenty years, until that community all emigrated to Israel, London or the US.
In the decade following WWII, there was a strong break between Conservative and Orthodox Judaism, which was finalized when the Conservative movement issued a Halachic ruling allowing people to drive on Shabbat.
Today, theologically, very little separates Conservative and Orthodox Judaism. On paper, both accept that the Torah (both Written and Oral) came from God (although many Conservative rabbis have broken from this) and accept that Halacha (Jewish Law) is binding. The difference is that the Conservative movement is willing to allow Jewish Law to "evolve" using Halachic processes (rabbincal debate and discussion) that have not been in place for centuries and reconsider "settled" opinions.
Orthodoxy, on the other hand, is extremely reluctant to disturb settled Jewish precedent, to the point that it preserves laws and stringencies that it acknowledges were instituted by men and have outlived their usefulness. There are exceptions to this principal, but they are rare.
In practice, however, the Conservative movement -- while going through the motions of Halachic processes -- does it only for show. In other words, while they claim to look at the sources to find an answer, in reality they find an answer (based on popular fashion) and then try to justify it by referencing sources. As a result, they allow Jewish law to "change" based on popular fashion, regardless of whether the change is supportable or not.
Reform, theologically, is very different from Orthodoxy and Conservative Judaism. It rejects that Jewish Law is binding, and doesn't even go through the motions of trying to justify their positions. In practice, it doesn't differ much from Conservative Judaism.
They define the term CINO (conservative in name only.)
Thanks for the explanation, and good to see you!
It could be that the Conservative branch has just slowly gotten more liberal over hte years, so they're moving away from the Orthodox. This friend once told me that in Reform Judaism, it's not unusual to find people who don't even believe in God. When she told me that, I was incredulous and asked "But if they call themselves a "Chosen people" by whom do they think they've been chosen?" She didn't really know.
Conservative Jews are Episcopalian analogues. Reforms are like Unitarians.
I heard part of it. Basically he was saying that Reform and Conservative Judaism will disappear within another generation and only the Orthodox will be left because they are the only ones making babies above replacement level.
I don't like Savage, but I listen to him for entertainment value. He attended a Passover seder at the Chabad House in San Francisco where my oldest son was working at the time. If you want to know what he is like in real life, just like his radio persona: complete a**h*le.
Warning! This is a high-volume ping list.

Thanks for the info.
you had me going there for a minute....
No matter the religion, if you practice it in America it will eventually become a perversion of itself and morph into hedonism.
Why not just revoke the whole notion of sin so the child molesters don't have to feel shame? Or maybe start offering late term abortions at the alter there under the Torah? Maybe they can let gay guys take home the Shofar for their honeymoon after their gay marriage in the Temple?
"I imagine each of the seminaries will handle it differently," he said. ""My guess is that within the next several weeks we will be announcing that our rabbinical school will be open to gays and lesbians because we have already had this discussion"
Oh dear L-rd. This is depressing to me. I've used their services (mikvah etc). Argh.
They VOTED to KEEP the Torah????? How big of 'em!
And I am not a member of my neighborhood synagogue because I don't like the WOMAN rabbi! I am so old-fashioned!
Does their statement mean that oral is not sex, a la Bill Clinton??
I am blonde: is that a REAL article in your post? It couldn't be!

Scotch whisky seeks copyright protection in China
LONDON (Reuters) - All Scotch whisky sold in China may soon be marked with a geographical indicator as the industry's trade group strives to protect against counterfeit versions of the increasingly popular spirit.
The Scotch Whisky Association (SWA) said it applied to China in 2007 to allow only Scotch from Scotland to carry the name, and expects an announcement from the Chinese government on Monday, coinciding with the start of a visit by British ministers and business leaders.
Scotch whisky exports to China have surged in recent years, raking in 28 million pounds ($45 million) in the first six months of this year alone, a 66 percent increase from the year-ago period.
But Chinese producers have jumped in to take advantage of the boom, with at least 200 imitation products identified in the past two years, according to media reports.
In September, London and Beijing signed a new intellectual property agreement to protect British brands, and the SWA hopes Monday's announcement will further safeguard Scotch's copyright status.

Read an Excerpt
Do Not Disturb
Chapter One
Inside Carmel, California's largest church, the unseasonal early September heat opened the pores of the one-thousand-plus gathered for Stephen Whitney's memorial service. The mingled scents of deodorant, aftershave, hairspray, and perfume rose above the crowd to hang like a thick cloud over the pews, making each of Angel's breaths a struggle.
Add to the cloying humidity yet another piercing Hallelujah!, followed by the droning voice of yet another moralistic muckety-muck at the podium, and Angel wondered if she'd made the short drop to her own personal hell instead of the short drive from San Francisco. Her scalp itched beneath her broad-brimmed black straw hat. She pressed the fingertips of her black cotton gloves to her upper lip to blot the moisture gathering there.
She needed air.
She needed out.
But she could hardly retreat now.
Not after pitching the idea of an in-depth profile on Stephen Whitney in such winning tones to her editor, Jane Hurley. Not after following that up with an interoffice e-mail inquiring if Jane had any contacts that might be helpful.
Jane herself proved to be that -- Angel had counted on it. While her editor was the woman who had turned West Coast magazine from a monthly filled with decorating tips and regional recipes into a nationally read and respected political and cultural journal, she was also Hearst-rich and maintained a second home on the famed Seventeen Mile Drive. So thanks to Jane, Angel had scored one of the scarce press passes to this memorial service, and her name was on the short list of guests for a much more private ceremony taking place later that day.
Nevertheless, Angel couldn't quash her serious second thoughts about digging into Stephen Whitney's life. In the past, she'd made it her mission to ignore anything having to do with the "Artist of the Heart," just as he'd ignored her when she'd so desperately needed him. Maybe she shouldn't --
Oh, stop being such a sissy, the journalist inside her interrupted, there's good stuff here. A story worth telling.
But even as another choral ensemble trooped up to the front of the church, Angel continued to waffle. So she settled her latest dilemma the same way she'd settled nearly all of them since she was a lonely twelve-year- old hooked on the video of All the President's Men.
WWWD? Angel asked herself. What Would Wood-ward Do?
And the answer was obvious, of course. Woodward would work the story.
Without delay.
Inhaling a deep breath, she glanced left and appraised the person nearest her in the second-to-the-last pew. Middle-aged lady, politely interested expression, quiet mauve suit. A likely source for some basic info.
Abandoning her niche at the outside corner of the pew, Angel slid closer. The filmy chiffon overlay of her sleeveless, little black dress floated up around her knees and she settled it back down before catching the lady's eye.
"Excuse me," she murmured. One of the very few things Angel knew about the artist was that he'd married. "I wonder if you could point out the widow."
Ms. Mauve took her time giving a less-than-neighborly once-over, which made Angel sorry she'd tucked her hair beneath her hat. She had yards of the curly blond stuff, and though it was a real pain to manage, it did take ten years off her age. That was a real blessing in the news-gathering biz, because people tended to trust those who looked more vulnerable than they.
It was another long moment before the woman finally spoke. "Stephen Whitney," she said in a biting whisper, "didn't believe in black."
Angel glanced down at her dark dress. "Oh." That explained why she was the lone beetle among the throng of butterflies in the room. She'd thought it was the heat that had everyone wearing pastels. "How, uh ... colorful of him."
When her comment did nothing to endear her to Ms. Mauve, Angel gave up and slid back toward her corner. But instead of the outside of her right leg finding the inside edge of the wooden pew, it found the long, hard thigh of a man.
"Oh!" Angel exclaimed again, scooting away to stare at the person who had invaded her corner when she wasn't looking. "Pardon me."
He glanced at her. Well, she supposed he did. It was hard to tell exactly what he was looking at when his eyes were hidden behind the dark lenses of Armani sunglasses.
"Don't mention it," he said in a low voice, his attention returning forward.
For some odd reason, Angel's attention stayed on him. He must have known Stephen Whitney better than she, because the man beside her was dressed in a butter-yellow linen shirt and a light olive suit. Both the suit and the shirt looked a little too big on him. He was very tan -- oh, like, for sure, the tan, the expensive suit, and those fancy shades just screamed Malibu Beach -- and his shiny dark hair untidily brushed his collar in an I-don't-give-a-damn sort of way.
As if sensing her continued regard, he turned his head her way again.
A sharp jolt of somethingsomething like ... like ... uh, recognition? -- straightened her in her seat and stirred a sexy little tickle low in her belly. Angel barely suppressed the sudden urge to squirm against the wooden bench as her hormones said, Hell-o! You gotta check this guy out!
But then, thank God, in dour, sensible tones, her head reminded the rest of her they were at a funeral. Stephen Whitney's funeral.
Feeling an embarrassed flush rising up her neck, she tried glossing over the awkward moment with a warm smile ...

Andy and Fergie Part II? Friends say it is only a matter of time before the Yorks get married again 17 years after their break-up
- Duke and Duchess of York, both 53, live at Royal Lodge in Windsor together
- Duke of York has financially supported his ex-wife since their divorce in 1996
- Both have had other partners but are close and raised their daughter Beatrice and Eugenie together
- Revelation comes after Fergie joined her ex-husband on a trip to Balmoral
They have always been the closest of divorcees – and now the Duke and Duchess of York may have rekindled their romance.
Friends say Prince Andrew and his ex-wife Sarah, both 53, have found love again, almost two decades after their marriage ended.
The Duchess, who has continued to live at Royal Lodge in Windsor with the Duke, issued a strongly worded denial following reports they were a couple again.
Together again: Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, pictured in 1995 shortly before their divorce, are said to have rekindled their romance
Wedding bells: Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, pictured on their wedding day in 1986 at Westminster Abbey, have been living together at the Royal Lodge in Berkshire
Royal ride: Fergie was driven to the airport by her former husband Prince Andrew while her daughters Beatrice and Eugenie travelled in the back seat ahead of a family visit to Balmoral
Back in the fold: The once disgraced Duchess of York flew to Balmoral to spend the weekend with the Queen
But friends have described them as so close that many consider a remarriage is on the cards.
One said: 'Mark my words, they will remarry. It is only a matter of time.'
The appearance of Sarah at Balmoral earlier this month only fuelled the speculation about the strength of their relationship.
Both Andrew and Sarah joined daughters Beatrice, 25, and Eugenie, 23, for a weekend at the Queen's Scottish Highlands retreat.
It was Sarah's first invitation back to the castle since 1992 when newspaper photographs were published showing her 'financial adviser' John Bryan sucking her toes. She was staying at Balmoral at the time.
her divorce and subsequent exclusion from the Royal Family's inner
circle, the Duke and Duchess have always remained on friendly terms.
Both have had other relationships but friends said neither had found lasting happiness after their divorce in 1996.
Royal opinion: The Queen has long been said to have remained fond of her former daughter-in-law, but Prince Philip is said to be baffled by Fergie and Prince Andrew's relationship
While she has still visited Balmoral since her divorce, it is thought to be the first time she has been invited to stay in the main castle on the Queen's estate since her marriage ended in 1996
Duchess was involved with Italian Count Gaddo della Gherardesca and
most recently Norwegian tycoon Geir Frantzen, who owns frozen food
company Findus.
Andrew has been linked to several wealthy socialites, most notably Kazakh entrepreneur Goga Ashkenazi.
Friends have suggested that the couple's continuing 'bond' may have seen off their other relationships.
1999 the Duchess told an interviewer: 'There was no reason for Andrew
and I to get divorced; there wasn't another person in our lives to go
'We got divorced because I had to go out to work, and Andrew and I believed that it wasn't right for me to be commercial while I was still in the Royal Family.'
Prince Andrew has continued to provide financial support for his ex-wife and in a 2009 interview he did not rule out remarrying.
Civil: Sarah Ferguson, pictured with her two daughters Beatrice and Eugenie on holiday in St Tropez, France, separated from Prince Andrew in 1992 but they remained on good terms
Family: Prince Andrew and his former wife Sarah Ferguson pose with their daughter Beatrice following her graduation ceremony at Goldsmiths College in London in 2011
Talking point: The Duke and Duchess of York, pictured together in London in 2000, have both previously spoken about getting married again
Joint effort: The Duchess of York, seen holding her second daughter Princess Eugenie in 1990, and Prince Andrew have raised their two daughters together
'Do we have to be married?' he said. 'Well, let's put it another way, I can neither confirm nor deny the possibility. We have two great children. We still look after them.'
Some friends said they believed the couple might remarry. One said: 'It wouldn't surprise me at all. They are a wonderful couple together and, better still, pretty amazing parents.'
Another, who saw them recently, said: 'There has always been this bond between them and they are incredibly close.
'It is, understandably, strange to some that they still live together so many years after their divorce, but they really do get on brilliantly and are hugely supportive of each other. Their biggest bond, however, is the girls.'
Another source said: 'Balmoral wasn't about them being back together, that was about the Royal Family recognising that she had tried to turn her life around and that they are still a family unit after all these years.'
A spokesman for the Duchess ruled out a new relationship between the pair. He said: 'They continue to be joint parents and best friends and try to set the best example for the girls.'
Close: The Queen, pictured next to Fergie at Princess Eugenie's christening at Sandringham in 1990, is said to remained fond of her daughter-in-law despite the scandals
Wedding bells: The Duke of York and Duchess of York, pictured on their wedding day in 1986, are said to be considering getting married for a second time
On good terms: Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, pictured on their wedding day on the balcony at Buckingham Palace, have remained close since their divorce
It's one of the wildest, most romantic spots on earth.
Little wonder, then, that Botswana is the place that Prince Harry returns to time and time again with the lady in his life. Every one of them.
He has just treated his latest girlfriend, Cressida Bonas, to a week-long safari holiday in the African wilderness.
Unfortunately for her, though, it was the very same spot he frequently romanced his ex-girlfriend, Chelsy Davy, and has holidayed with his once rumoured love interest, Natalie Pinkham.
The couple are understood to have spent several glorious days sailing up and down the picturesque Okavango Delta on a rickety houseboat called the Kubu Queen, sleeping out under the stars.
It was the very same boat that the prince was photographed on with Miss Davy in 2008.
Harry, 28, and Cressida, 24, were accompanied by Harry's cousin, Princess Eugenie, and her boyfriend Jack Brooksbank.
It is believed Eugenie first introduced the prince to her friend.
The group enjoyed the odd spot of fishing and had meals cooked for them by an on-board chef.
It is understood that Cressida and Eugenie flew out to Africa together from London early last week, while Harry travelled from Angola.

Methane Concentrations and Biogeochemistry in Lake Sediments from Stordalen Mire in Sub-Arctic Sweden Madison Halloran¹, Joel DeStasio², Lance Erickson³, Joel E. Johnson 4, Ruth K.Varner², Jacob B.

Methane is diffusing away from this maximum zone. Core sites with known high lake surface methane fluxes from bubble trap measurements also show high methane concentrations in the sediment, high DIC concentrations in the pore fluids, and δ 13 C signatures of DIC ranging from 0 to 10, consistent with methanogenesis. Future work, including 14 C dating, microbial community profiling, and δ 13 C signatures of CH 4 will yield more insight into the biogeochemical mechanisms that regulate sediment methane distributions.

Taking a sediment sample to analyze for methane concentration from holes drilled into a plastic core liner Villasjön Inre Harrsjön Mellan Harrsjön Site Map Introduction Lake sediments are an important global carbon sink, storing carbon from both allochthonous and autochthonous inputs 1. The burial of organic carbon in natural lake sediments globally is estimated in the range of 30 to 70 Tg C/a 1.This organic carbon can be mobilized into the atmosphere through the movement of gases, particularly methane (CH 4 ) 2. Although freshwater lakes cover a large area in northern peatlands 3, few studies have quantified their contribution of greenhouse gas emissions to the atmospheric carbon budget. In July of 2013 we took 48 cores at 16 sites throughout three lakes in the Stordalen Mire, Abisko, Sweden to characterize the sedimentology and geochemistry of the lake sediments in order to understand the production, distribution,and flux of CO 2 and CH 4 from these lakes. These sites differed in water depth and ebullition (bubbling) rates. Concentrations of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), dissolved CH 4 and potential production rates of CO 2 and CH 4 were determined, and are linked to bulk TOC, TC, TN, TS, and CaCO 3, as well as grain size fractions. Core Stratigraphy Results Villasjön Inre Harrsjön Mellan Harrsjön Upper layer: organic rich sediment Middle layer: transition of mixed organic and lithogenic materials Deep layer: grey lithogenic clay with less organic carbon Core Site: VM1

1 The Downward Spiral: Don't Set Yourself up for Failure with Your Boss (or Your Client!) Presented by: Rob Orr, SPHR HR Consultant
2 "We're running as an economy at 30% efficiency" Curt Coffman Employee Engagement Global Practice Leader, The Gallup Organization HRMagazine, February 2004
3 When people need help getting a job done, they will choose a 'lovable fool' over a 'competent jerk'. Tiziana Casciaro & Miguel Sousa Lobo Competent Jerks, Lovable Fools, and the Formation of Social Networks Harvard Business Review, June 2005
4 The environment has changed 1.Technical skills not as critical for executives 2.Actuarial integrity less valued –Focus on profitability –Capitalism demutualization, non-paternalistic Source: Sim Segal, FSA, MAAA Deloitte Consulting, LLP - used with permission
5 Session Objectives Identify the specific problems Actuaries face Identify cues to watch out for Recognize how Actuaries might contribute to the problem Identify steps to take to turn the situation around By the end of the session, you will be able to:
6 Agenda Review purpose and desired outcomes Difficult Bosses – Difficult Clients The Set-Up-To-Fail Syndrome How Individuals Contribute Taking Responsibility Summary
7 Your Difficult Boss / Difficult Client Use the worksheet to describe a difficult boss (or client) that you have known.
8 The Difficult Boss / Difficult Client 1. Negative, mean spirited 2. Autocratic 3. ______________________________ 4. ______________________________ 5. ______________________________ 6. ______________________________ 7. ______________________________ 8. ______________________________
9 The Set-Up-To Fail Syndrome Widespread Insidious & Pernicious Based on "Common Wisdom"
10 Common Wisdom Three Groups Stronger Performers Weaker Performers Deadwood
11 Different Strokes for Different Folks… Bosses consciously treat stronger and weaker performers differently –Stronger performers get autonomy –Weaker performers get help –Deadwood gets ignored (or an invitation to leave)
12 The Downward Spiral
13 General Session: Actuarial Communication- Is Anyone Listening? If They Are, What Do They Hear? Communication (how to deliver the tough messages) Opinion changes (are they effective enough?) Actuaries' images and roles in organizations Peer reviews Actuarial standards Professionalism Backbone
14 Labels, Biases, & Misperceptions Having formed an opinion, our minds draw on all possible evidence to support it. When confronted with evidence that contradicts our viewpoint, we overlook it or denigrate it, or find some other way of writing it off. That way we can cling to our original opinion as though it were a universal truth. Francis Bacon, 1620 (updated language by Manzoni & Barsoux.)
15 How does this start? Loss of Confidence in Subordinates
16 Triggers of Lost Confidence What would you say?
17 Triggers of Lost Confidence Disloyalty Complaining Negative attitude Low engagement or energy Low-self- confidence Insensitivity to signals Know-it-all Disrespect for Boss's time Blatantly political Extrinsic motivation Trying too hard
18 Perceiving Performance What about objective performance measures ?
19 Perceiving Performance
20 Source: Sim Segal, FSA, MAAA, Deloitte Consulting, LLP- used with permission
21 Actuaries have lost industry dominance Fewer actuaries in C-Level positions Highly-technical actuaries not fast-tracked –Reserved for those presentable to C-suite Fewer automatic promotions upon ASA, FSA Narrower roles, fewer opportunities Source: Sim Segal, FSA, MAAA, Deloitte Consulting, LLP- used with permission
22 In-Groups and Out-Groups 80-90% of managers have sharply differentiated relationships with subordinates. In-Group members have close partnerships as "trusted assistants." Out-Group members have low-quality relationships as "hired-hands."
23 Performance Perceptions No correlation between objective performance & relationship quality: 1993 – Duarte, Goodson, & Klich Very high correlation between "liking" and in-group status: 1990 – Wayne & Ferris Boss expectation in 1 st week a better predictor of "in-group status" than actual performance at end of 2 nd week 1993 – Liden, Wayne, & Stilwell
24 The Self-Reinforcing Dynamic Boss's behavior toward "weaker" performers Boss is increasingly impatient pushy or intense during contacts Subordinate progressively disconnects Subordinate looks for excuses Boss is not well informed Boss is less able to make useful suggestions Boss's anxiety increases Problem recognition is delayed More problems arise Subordinate performs less well overall Subordinate spends time on excuses (rather than problem solving) Boss loses faith in Subordinate's excuses
25 Reality "Good people can quickly end up with bad labels. That needn't be a problem. The boss's inaccurate label becomes a problem because it is so hard to change." Jean-François Manzoni & Jean-Louis Barsoux The Set-Up-To-Fail Syndrome
26 Are You in the Out-Group? Let's take a look! Refer to the answers on Your Difficult Boss worksheet
27 Your Difficult Boss In small groups, share: –the situations you described on page 5 –the factors that contributed to the situation Agree on the common factors ( Write on page 20.)
28 "What is there in your approach or way of managing the situation that might be contributing to the problem or getting in the way of its resolution?" Peter Block Flawless Consulting, Second Edition 2000, Jossey-Bass/Pfeiffer
29 Cues for Subordinates Attribution of negative personal characteristics Tendency to reduce contact with Boss Diminished self-confidence Hyper vigilance of Boss behavior Takes feedback with "a grain of salt" Tendency to bring up the past Reputation as "the person most likely to disagree with the boss" Tendency to engage in covert lobbying
30 The Difficult Boss 1. Negative, mean spirited 2. Autocratic 3. Stickler for details, intolerant, impossible to please 4. Intimidating, treats people as resources 5. Unrealistic 6. Stubborn; impossible to influence 7. Manipulative 8. Meddlesome; untrusting 9. Control freak; micro manager; evaluative 10. Uncommunicative; aloof; unsupportive 11. Weak, prone to favoritism; low performance standards 12. Impatient; temperamental; unpredictable 13. Ignorant bureaucrat; clueless; defensive 14. Stifling my development
31 The "Great Boss" 1. Development-oriented 2. Intuitive; decisive 3. Has high expectations and aspirations 4. Driven 5. Demanding; has high aspirations 6. Single-minded; focused 7. Politically astute 8. Helpful; caring 9. Encouraging; coaching; informed; close to the pulse 10. Thoughtful, busy 11. Allows self-discovery 12. Passionate; incisive; mercurial; (at worst) impulsive 13. Realistic; better judge; aware of interdependencies; victim of a poorly sold change 14. Considerate; letting me recover
32 The Observed Behaviors 1. Giving critical feedback 2. Making a unilateral decision 3. Instructing work to be redone 4. Imposing discipline 5. Setting stretch targets 6. Sticking with a doubtful course of action 7. Sending mixed signals 8. Giving unsolicited advice 9. Asking specific questions 10. Delaying response to proposal/ request 11. Not condemning a big mistake 12. Losing temper in public 13. Resisting a proposed change 14. Giving a routine assignment
33 Perception is Reality ActionIntentBoss seesBoss infers Discounting feedback EffectivenessIgnored feedback Anti-learning, lacks potential & respect Bringing up the past Avoid repetition Water under the bridge Lacks judgment & maturity Holding ground with Boss To be heardChallenging, foolish resistance Lacks judgment, self-control & discipline Covert lobbying To make things better Personal betrayal Lacks loyalty and integrity

35 Taking Responsibility Stop digging Start talking Accomplish some tasks
36 Taking Responsibility Stop digging –Get your job in order –Get your head in order –Don't rush it Start talking Accomplish some tasks
37 Taking Responsibility Stop digging Start talking –Increase contact with boss –Make it easy for the boss –Invite your boss to a meeting –Have a new conversation Accomplish some tasks
38 Taking Responsibility Stop digging Start talking Accomplish some tasks –Maintain your own self- confidence –Fight the urge to withdraw –Don't overreach
39 Things to Remember Know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em. There is no one to blame. Let go of expectations of your boss. Offer the benefit of the doubt. Produce hope, rather than pursue it.

Information | |
Trainer: | Casey |
Ability: | Static (Not yet activated) |
Debut: | Here's Lookin' at You, Elekid |
This Elekid is an electric-type Pokémon owned by Casey.
As the heroes stopped for lunch, an Elekid came and ate Larvitar's food. Pikachu went to attack and as Ash tried to settle the dispute, he got electrocuted by Pikachu and Elekid, the latter patting Larvitar on the back. Just then, Team Rocket snatched both Elekid and Larvitar, then fled. Elsewhere, James approached Elekid, who electrocuted him, causing Elekid and Larvitar to be fall down from the tree and become free. While traveling, Elekid used Thunder Shock to make some of the apples fall down and eat them with Larvitar. Team Rocket found Elekid again and used a net to capture them again. Elekid tried to electrocute the net, but failed, so Larvitar used Screech to distract Team Rocket. The heroes and Casey arrived and blew away Team Rocket, but in doing so, Elekid and Larvitar fell off a cliff. Eventually, James received a Weepinbell and had it use Sweet Scent, which attracted Elekid, while Larvitar tried to pull it away. The heroes also arrived, but fell in a hole and Team Rocket was able to snatch Elekid and Larvitar once more. However, James' Weepinbell evolved into Victreebel and chewed on Jessie, causing her to drop Larvitar and Elekid. After Team Rocket was defeated, Casey sent Meganium to battle Elekid. Elekid emitted electricity to hit Meganium, but missed. Meganium retaliated with Razor Leaf, which was countered by Elekid's Thunder Punch. Meganium tackled Elekid and hit it with Solar Beam, allowing Casey to catch it. Casey was glad and promised to win more badges with Elekid.[1]
This article has an incomplete plot or synopsis. Reason: JE147 Please help the Pokémon Wiki by expanding it. |
Casey sent Elekid to battle against Georgio's Delcatty. Elekid started with Thunder Punch, but missed and got hit by Double Edge. Elekid attempted to use Thunderbolt, but Delcatty used Double Team to avoid the attack and Iron Tail to defeat Elekid.[2] Elekid was also used to stop Corey's rampaging Charizard. Later on, Elekid, Meganium and Beedrill were sent out to search for Corey and Charizard, who did not come back after their training.[3]

Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson and Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack today broke ground to officially begin construction of the National Bio- and Agro-Defense Facility (NBAF) main laboratory structure in Manhattan, Kansas.
"The NBAF laboratory will provide the nation with cutting edge, state-of-the-art, lab capabilities and help protect our food supply and the nation's public health," said Secretary Johnson. "NBAF addresses a serious vulnerability. The economic impact of a bio agricultural threat – deliberate or natural – could have a substantial effect on the food supply of this Nation and have serious human health consequences.

Help the Less Fortunate this Holiday Season and Stuff the Bus
Milwaukee County Executive Chris Abele and Waukesha County Executive Paul Farrow Will Help Collect Food at Noon
Before sitting down with family and friends this Thanksgiving, give back by helping MCTS Stuff the Bus on Wednesday, November 25th! MCTS is proud to partner with 99.1 The Mix, Feeding America and Pick `n Save for the 18th annual one-day food drive. The goal this year is to collect enough food to provide 200,000 meals to hungry families this holiday season.
Stuff the Bus will take place from 6am – 6pm at the Brookfield South Pick `n Save at 15170 W. Greenfield Ave. People can buy food at the store to donate or stop by and drop of donations in the parking lot – just look for the MCTS bus!!
Milwaukee County Executive Chris Abele and Waukesha County Executive Paul Farrow will be at the store at noon helping to collect food and encouraging people to donate nonperishable food items.
"Every donation, large and small, will make a big difference to families this holiday season. We encourage people to give what they can," Abele said.
"For many of us who have so much to give thanks for, this event allows us to give something back and help those in need," Farrow said.
Those who can't make it to the event can also donate money online. For every $1 donation, Feeding America can provide three meals to someone in need.
