busy with title.. will release some new/updated stuff after 16/01/2014.
// sluggo
Havent had time to test it enough (read at all) for even an alpha-release yet but to give a hint of what's in it i've uploaded the current documentation to libuvcc.dm9.se.
I'm also writing an obj-c (cocoa) wrapper for the whole thing but that one is not documented yet.

the download links are fixed, sorry about that.

This the new demo from a friends band, The Friday Prophets. Listen it to it, it's awesome.

well hello there!
i just updated to Xcode 4.2 on snow leopard (10.6.8) since 4.0.something kept crashing on me.. well, 4.2 wasn't much better! when trying to open one of my projects it would crash immediately. i did the usual stuff, (re)moving
but to no effect. when i checked the crash log i saw that i got some ui-based reason:
... ASSERTION FAILURE in /SourceCache/DVTKit/DVTKit-907/Framework/Classes/Tabs/DVTTabBarView.m:1532 Details: Assertion failed: maxX >= minX ...
so i figured i'd check out what my workspace file (or actually folder) contained. after firing up iTerm and navigating to
i found the file UserInterfaceState.xcuserstate. having had a few beers i didn't feel like going thru a gazillion rows of apple-xml just to fix some layout-crap so i simply (re)moved it. This fixed the problem.
// sluggo
update: regarding the iSight, to get the it into uvc-ctrl menu it has to be active..
update 2: This was originally the release announcement for 1.0a, but i did some minor changes that i realized fixed some really annoying things in that version so i uploaded the new one (1.02a) and just replaced the download link here.. if you're one of the first five to download the 1.0a version, i'm sorry!
here's the new alpha version of uvc-ctrl, it looks pretty much as the screenshots in the previous post. function-wise it doesn't differ much from the last one but it now comes with a native gui localized in english and swedish and is completely dependency-free. note that it's a status-bar app so no windows are displayed until you select a camera in the menu. there are still some functions missing, most notably the cam-profiles.. also, i've only had the chance to test it on 10.6.8. if anyone would like to report success/fail on other os x versions that would be super!
since this is a complete rewrite any and all bug-reports are very welcome, either to email@example.com or in the comments below. It would be great if the they included your os x-version, any messages from the Console-app in the Utilities folder (you can filter with the phrase se.dm9) and what led up to it.
lastly, since i wouldn't be able to draw a stick-figure if my life depended on it there's no icon!
// sluggo
I'm not quite done with the new version of uvc-ctrl yet but i though i'll give anyone that's still interested an update..
the new version is a complete rewrite (not needing libusb and therefore distributed under the dm9 license), two part project. first there's the uvcc-lib, a library that implements some of the stuff i've been missing in QTKit (enumeration of resolutions and fps´, direct access to vendor and device id etc), a few helper functions to tie it up with QTKit (getting a uvccCam struct that can be used to send uvc requests from a [QTCaptureDevice uniqueID] and so on) and of course a uvccSendRequest function. Then there's the application which will be a status bar (or "menu bar", dunno the apple lingo here) app capable of setting all the settings on any connected uvc compliant cam.
i thought i'd have this done by now but a work-project turned out occupy most of my summer. now i'm back, just moved into a new apartment and is trying to settle in and study for an exam i screwed up before leaving for the summer break.
next time i post it'll be the new uvc-ctrl comming out.
update: still some kinks to work out.. but here's a sneek preview
// sluggo
update: ended up not using the old version so i didn't look at it much. today i needed it again and realized it was crap so i rewrote it and here's a new, (hopefully) less buggy version that also handles single-channel images.
Through work i found the need to display an IplImage in cocoa.. after looking at CVOCV, James Hurleys example and a couple of other snippets i remembered that opencv can be built for iOS and started browsing through the source. Inside OpenCV-2.4.1/modules/highgui/src/window_cocoa.mm i found what i was looking for (CVView). i rewrote it a bit and came up with the following NSView subclass:
#import <Foundation/Foundation.h> #import <opencv/cv.h> @interface MyCVView : NSView { @private NSBitmapImageRep *bm; @public } @property (nonatomic, retain) NSImage *image; - (void)setImagePrefs:(int)width // image width height:(int)height // " height channels:(int)nChannels // usually 4/3/1 (rgba/rgb/monochrome) widthStep:(int)widthStep // usually width*nChannels depth:(int)depth; - (void)setImageData:(IplImage *)img releaseWhenCopied:(BOOL)shouldRelease; - (void)drawRect:(NSRect)rect; @end
#import "MyCVView.h" @implementation MyCVView @synthesize image; - (id)init { if((self = [super init])) [self setCanDrawConcurrently:true]; return self; } - (void)setImagePrefs:(int)width height:(int)height channels:(int)nChannels widthStep:(int)widthStep depth:(int)depth { if(bm) [bm release]; bm = [[NSBitmapImageRep alloc] initWithBitmapDataPlanes: NULL pixelsWide: width pixelsHigh: height bitsPerSample: 8 // i only use IPL_DEPTH_8U, if you use others set it as an arg.. samplesPerPixel: nChannels hasAlpha: NO isPlanar: NO colorSpaceName: (nChannels == 1 ? NSDeviceWhiteColorSpace : NSDeviceRGBColorSpace) bytesPerRow: widthStep bitsPerPixel: nChannels*depth]; if(image) [image release]; image = [[NSImage alloc] init]; [image addRepresentation:bm]; } - (void)setImageData:(IplImage *)img releaseWhenCopied:(BOOL)shouldRelease { if(!bm) [self setImagePrefs:img->width height:img->height channels:img->nChannels widthStep:img->widthStep depth:img->depth]; unsigned char *src = (unsigned char *)img->imageData; unsigned char *dst = [bm bitmapData]; if(img->nChannels == 1) memcpy(dst, src, (img->width*img->height)); else { // red-blue swap and flip incorporated for(int i = img->width * img->height - 1; i >= 0; i--) { dst[i * 4 + 0] = src[2]; dst[i * 4 + 1] = src[1]; dst[i * 4 + 2] = src[0]; src += ((CvMat *)img)->step - ((CvMat *)img)->cols; } } [self setNeedsDisplay:YES]; if(shouldRelease) cvReleaseImage(&img); } - (void)drawRect:(NSRect)rect { [super drawRect:rect]; // autoscaling - if you don't want it replace second part with comment below NSRect ir = {{0,0}, {[self bounds].size.width, [self bounds].size.height}}; // {[image size].width, [image size].height}}; if(image != nil) { [image drawInRect: ir fromRect: NSZeroRect operation: NSCompositeSourceOver fraction: 1.0]; } } - (void)dealloc { if(bm) [bm release]; if(image) [image release]; [super dealloc]; } @end
This was built without warnings in xcode 4 on snow leopard and saves some cpu-cycles compared to the original version since the rb-swap and flip is stuffed into a the data-copy-loop. Note that you should not call it CVView (will cause a crash) since opencv already contains a class with that name.
// sluggo
new version out
not much done but since i got rid of the most annoying thing i figured i'd release it anyway.. here's what's done
This version is also compatible with Klaus' gui.
// sluggo
Klaus has written a gui for the latest version of uvc-ctrl! to use it all you have to do is place the uvc-ctrl in the same folder as his app and you can point-and-click-control your uvc cam. if you wish to bundle uvc-ctrl and Klaus' gui you just copy it into the app. the easiest way to do that is by unpacking uvc-ctrl and uvc-ctrl-GUI in your home-folder, start the terminal (Applications > Utilities > Terminal) and type
mv uvc-ctrl uvc-ctrl-GUI.app/Contents/MacOS/
and then hit enter.
Thank you Klaus for you awesome work!
note libusb is still required.

For me, one of the events with the highest impact to come out of the RootsTech Conference was the announcement of the FamilySearch FamilyTech Blog site. The reason was because I went from writing one major Blog to writing two major Blogs. The bulk of my technical writing has been going into Family Tech during the past three months or so. Also, FamilyTech is a different blogging experience because the posts are moderated. That means that the FamilySearch team reviews and edits everything I write. Instead of instantly posting my comments, the whole post goes through several levels of review.
In addition to make things more interesting, the FamilyTech site is powered by WordPress instead of Blogger.com. So I had a steep learning curve to come up to speed with WordPress. It wasn't all that difficult, but it was different and I am still getting used to the differences. I had my usual reaction to the challenge, buy a book and read about WordPress and then start my own WordPress site. It still remains to be seen if I will get to the point of moving my Genealogy's Star Blog to WordPress or not. Right now, I have no plans to do so but I wouldn't be surprised if it happens in the future.
There is a significant time commitment in trying to maintain two active Blogs. Actually, I have three now, but the Walking Arizona Blog doesn't eat up much time presently. I do find that writing a tech blog has a pretty high overhead of research. The accuracy of the information has to be checked and that means finding a source on the Internet. This isn't meant to imply that I don't check Genealogy's Star for accuracy. If I make a mistake, my readers are not shy about telling what is wrong.
Family Tech is evolving into a very interesting and helpful site. Take a moment and check it out.

Thank you for your time and efforts on the Family Tech site, James! It's wonderful that it's available and so informative!ReplyDelete
Thanks for making me aware of the Family Tech site. Also, I'm wondering what features of Wordpress seemed preferable to the Blogger software? I've never tried to compare the two.ReplyDelete

Subjects taught at LSE | Services and divisions (administration)
All research groups | Research subject areas
The Council of the London School of Economics and Political Science today (Wednesday, 30 November) publishes the report of Lord Woolf's Inquiry into the School's links with Libya. It also announces the results of a separate inquiry by the University of London into alleged academic misconduct by Saif Gaddafi.
Lord Woolf, commissioned by LSE Council in March to review LSE's links to Libya following the resignation of Director Howard Davies, finds that there were failings of governance, management and communication at LSE concerning Saif Gaddafi's PhD and the decision to accept a gift from the Gaddafi International Charity and Development Foundation.
The School will implement all 15 of Lord Woolf's recommendations in consultation with the academic community. It has already brought in many of the changes recommended by Lord Woolf. On PhD admissions and supervision, the School has brought in major changes since 2004 to enhance the quality of PhD programmes. In an Institutional Audit earlier this year, the Quality Assurance Agency reported that "arrangements for the selection, learning support, training, supervision and assessment of research students were found to be exemplary". The School has already revised its donations policy and will now develop this further.
Professor Judith Rees, Director of LSE, said: "The publication of this report will help LSE move on from this unhappy chapter in its otherwise celebrated history. It is consoling that Lord Woolf finds that no academic or other staff member at LSE acted other than in what they perceived to be the best interests of the School. He also describes the work of LSE Enterprise in training Libyan professionals and civil servants as of merit. We will now work to take LSE forward, learning the lessons of the report and implementing Lord Woolf's recommendations."
Peter Sutherland, Chair of LSE Council, said, "The Council is grateful to Lord Woolf for this thorough report. It was commissioned to address the many concerns around LSE's links to Libya, and has been published in full as there are lessons in here for both LSE and for the higher education sector as a whole."
The Inquiry examined three areas of LSE's links with Libya:
Lord Woolf did not set out to investigate whether Saif Gaddafi received an impermissible amount of assistance with his PhD. A Panel to consider the allegations of academic misconduct against him was set up by the University of London, which awarded the degree. The University of London has concluded that the PhD should not be revoked. The PhD thesis has been annotated to show where attribution or references should have been made.
Lord Woolf's 15 recommendations are set out below, with LSE's action set against each one.
Action already taken
Action to follow
1.The LSE should have an embedded Code dealing with ethics and reputational risk which applies across the institution. That Code should be reviewed at regular intervals to ensure it is in accord with best current practice. The LSE should set up a Committee, which may have subcommittees so far as this is desirable, to effectively deal with issues relating to the Code.
LSE's Strategic Plans have long stated our institutional values and commitments upfront and incorporated them into our mission statement, as acknowledged by Lord Woolf. Ethical guidance for different research areas is also available.
A sub-committee of Council will work in the first instance to implement this recommendation. It is currently proposed that the committee will meet as often as necessary in order to prepare an Ethics code for consideration by Council in March 2012.
2. The LSE should consider – a) How to achieve greater uniformity of practice for the admission of PhD students b) To what extent it is appropriate in the case of PhD admissions to take into account a student's potential ability to benefit society as a result of their attendance at LSE.
a) In 2004 LSE began the process of reforming its PhD regulations. As a result there is already a greater degree of uniformity in PhD admissions, with better co-ordination across departments and more stringent English language requirements. In an Institutional Audit earlier this year, the Quality Assurance Agency reported, "arrangements for the selection, learning support, training, supervision and assessment of research students were found to be exemplary".
b) The key factor in deciding whether to admit a PhD student is academic merit. No student will be considered if they do not have appropriate qualifications. In 2005 Academic Board also resolved that other factors to be taken into consideration were the quality of the initial research proposal and the motivation of the applicant.
a) LSE will continue its process of reforming its PhD regulations, in particular through proposals to ensure that more PhD students are fully-funded, thereby resulting in a smaller number of high quality students. It will build on arrangements described as "exemplary" by the Quality Assurance Agency earlier this year.
b) This matter will be discussed by Academic Board in 2012. The key factor in deciding whether to admit a PhD student is academic merit. Since 2005 this has covered academic qualifications, the quality of the research proposal and motivation.
3. There should be an academic body, staffed by academics from across the institution, charged with oversight of the admission of postgraduate students and their continuing work programme.
The review of LSE procedures for research students earlier this year by the QAA found procedures well organised across departments: "Each department has a doctoral programme director, with responsibility for overseeing: the training, support and supervisory workload of supervisors (all supervisors receive bespoke training); the induction of new research students; and the training of all research students. The obligations and responsibilities of research students, supervisors, and departmental doctoral programme directors are clearly specified: these include the minimum frequency of supervisions and early support from supervisors with identifying research training needs, planning time and drawing up a research framework."
We will build on current arrangements, developed since 2004 and praised by the QAA, to take forward a proposal in the lent term. In particular, we will look again at the terms of reference of the existing Research Degrees Sub Committee. Further, new proposals for fully-funded PhDs will see the establishment of a body for the oversight of PhD admissions as of 2013.
4. Departments and academics should be regularly reminded of the importance of good lines of communication. That should be supported as necessary by procedures or written guidance. Particularly, they might be required where multiple departments are involved in the work of a single student, for example, when a postgraduate degree involves multiple departments.
LSE has already worked to ensure that procedures and written guidance are clear and accessible. The QAA review found that we had "well-established, clearly-written and easily-accessible regulations, procedures (which includes complaints and appeals) and codes of practice".
Further, we use "admissions sheets" for PhD applications, which make it clear to Department B if Department A has rejected a candidate.
LSE will put in place a system for regularly updating all staff on current regulations and procedures. It will build on the measures already introduced and the work praised by the QAA to ensure cross-departmental communication.
5. LSE should lay down guidance which is as precise as possible on what assistance is and is not appropriate for a postgraduate student to receive.
LSE has already drawn up draft guidelines on editorial assistance and the use of plagiarism detection software. It is currently developing a School-wide Handbook for Supervisors.
Paper on editorial assistance and the use of plagiarism detection software at PhD level to come from Research Degrees Sub Committee to the Academic Board for approval in the lent term.
6. There should be a clear policy on setting out in what circumstances, and in what manner, the question of a student's possible contravention of that guidance will be investigated.
This is already set out clearly in the draft editorial guidance as advised by Lord Woolf.
Guidance to be ratified by Academic Board in the lent term.
7. Academics should be made actively aware of the School's Regulations and should be reminded of their utility as tools for regulation of a student's academic progress in cases of concern.
Our improved regulations are accessible and widely publicised, as evidenced by the QAA.
LSE is happy to draw the attention of academics to existing regulations, and again the QAA found our regulations to be clearly written and accessible. The further guidance on editorial support and plagiarism will assist in this process as will the new all-School Handbook for Supervisors.
8. The LSE should adopt, as an institution, an up-to-date policy on donations. That policy should be contained as part of or in a separate document contained within the School's Code on ethical and reputational risk.
LSE has already undertaken further work on a donations policy under the relevant pro-director, as acknowledged in the Woolf report. It builds on an initial document drawn up by the Office of Development and Alumni Relations in January 2009.
As set out by Lord Woolf, the LSE will develop a Code on ethical and reputational risk and hopes to provide a draft to Council in March 2012. The donations policy will be clearly linked to this code as also advised by Lord Woolf.
9. The donations policy should include a procedure for the scrutiny of proposed donations with clear lines of responsibility. The roles and responsibilities of ODAR, the Development Committee and any additional Committee that might have responsibilities in connection with donations should be set out in writing. Any individual who has responsibilities in relation to gifts should have those identified in writing.
The work undertaken to date reflects Lord Woolf's thinking on this. LSE has developed interim "Guidance on the assessment of the sources of donations and grants". These are already on the LSE website and will inform the work of developing long-term guidelines along with the "Ethical Principles behind the Acceptance of Gifts" as recently published by CASE Europe. In addition we have already established a rigorous interim process for the scrutiny of all grants and donations with the clear escalation of difficult cases.
While Council will establish a sub-committee to oversee an Ethics code for LSE, there will also be an Ethics (grants and donations) committee specifically to scrutinise grants and donations. The relationship of this committee to ODAR and to the Development Committee is currently under review and will be clearly set out, with individual responsibilities in relation to gifts set out in writing as recommended.
10. The donations policy should identify whether, and in what circumstances, it is appropriate for an individual, centre or department to request a donation on their own initiative. The donations policy should require that ODAR must be informed promptly of any potential donation.
LSE has been working to better co-ordinate academics and the professional support services, particularly in relation to donations. Earlier this month the Director of the School wrote to all departments and research centres requiring that they consult ODAR before requesting donations.
It will no longer be acceptable for an individual, centre or department to request a donation on their own initiative without first consulting ODAR. This has already been acted on.
11. The School should set out written guidance on the appropriate relationship between the LSE and a donor.
LSE has a clear statement that has already been agreed and is incorporated in all gift and grant agreements: "LSE accepts donations on the clear understanding that the funder can have no influence over the academic freedom and independence of LSE".
This relationship will be set out as recommended in the donations policy. LSE has already made it clear that:
"LSE accepts donations on the clear understanding that the funder can have no influence over the academic freedom and independence of LSE".
12. The recommendations of the Sutton Report on the governance of research centres should be implemented.
Review of LSE Global Governance undertaken by Professor Sutton and series of recommendations on governance of research centres put forward.
Sutton Report already discussed by Council, will be discussed by heads of departments and research centres in early December and detailed implementation proposals will go to Academic Board in January 2012.
13. The Code should be regarded as being applicable to all individuals performing activities which could reasonably be perceived as being performed on behalf of LSE.
LSE Enterprise readily agrees to incorporate the LSE Ethics code into its own guidance and procedures. LSE will consult on wider application.
14. The Committee dealing with ethics and reputational risk must have sufficient awareness of the activities of LSE-E and other bodies operating under the name of the School, to ensure that Committee has a holistic view of potential and cumulative risks to the School.
The School is developing a register of activities and interests in order to improve oversight of School-wide activities.
LSE intends a sub-committee of Council to begin the process of establishing an Ethics code for LSE. It will oversee the creation and running of the Code, and ensure that it embraces all areas of the School, including areas such as LSE-E and the developing register of activities/interests. As already indicated this sub-committee hopes to present a code for Council's consideration in March 2012.
15. The LSE should consider the width of the principle that no gift will be accepted from a current student and should determine whether it extends to other benefits, including commercial contracts.
LSE will extend the currently applied principle that no gift will be accepted from a current student to cover commercial contracts.
Notes to editors
The Inquiry was set up on 3 March 2011 following criticism of LSE's links to Libya and the resignation of the Director, Sir Howard Davies. The terms of the Inquiry were as follows:
An independent inquiry to establish the full facts of the School's links with Libya, whether there have been errors made, and to establish clear guidelines for international donations to and links with the School. Lord Woolf is to make recommendations to the LSE Council as soon as possible. He is to have total discretion as to how he conducts the inquiry, and as to the matters on which he is to report.
The full report of the Woolf Inquiry can be found here: Woolf
Governance structures at LSE:
The 28-member LSE Council, as governing body, is responsible for determining strategy and its members are company directors of the School. The Court of Governors (80 members) deals with some constitutional matters and has influence in the School through pre-decision discussions on key policy issues and the involvement of individual governors in the School's activities. Peter Sutherland KCMG chairs both bodies. The Academic Board is the principal academic body, which considers all major issues of general policy affecting the academic life of the School and its development. It is chaired by the Director, with staff and student membership. There are a number of committees of the Council, Court and the Academic Board, and others, which are advisory to the Director.

Salem, Ore.-based GreenFLEX, builders of insulated concrete park models, has achieved Certified Green by TRA Certification. According to a press release, GreenFLEX is now labeling its park models with the Certified Green insignia and have reached the silver status.
The company said that GreenFLEX is a patent-pending material invented to create a building system that has advantages over both solid concrete and traditional wood frame construction. Like solid concrete, the product is hammer-tough and extremely durable. At the same time, it weighs little more than wood frame construction while providing superior insulation at a cost that is competitive with traditional construction.
GreenFLEX park models include zonal heating systems, and the interior walls are fully insulated to take advantage of the flexibility. Units also include low VOC insulation and hard flooring while "zero carpeting" is used to reduce the amount of tracked-in contaminants that can become trapped within the fibers. The kitchen and bathroom contain low-flow faucets and the showerhead and toilet are both low-flow.

Audit Working Papers
(A paper read by Mr. W. H. Bell before the Tri-State Society of Certified Public Accountants, at
Baltimore, Maryland, June 24, 1919.)
THE importance of the substance and
form of working papers is threefold:
first, to the accountant originating the
papers, not only in the audit procedure and
the preparation of his r e p o r t , but in
answering questions that may later arise
from any source; second, to the person or
persons who review and check the report;
and third, to the accountant making a subsequent
There are two general tendencies regarding
the data contained in working papers,
viz., deficiency and superfluity. It is probable
that the latter is more prevalent than
the former, but that the tendency to prepare
superfluous working papers diminishes
in direct ratio to an accountant's advance
in proficiency as an auditor, that is, as he
becomes more practical. Granting that an
accountant charged with the preparation
of working papers has the requisite knowledge
of the principles of auditing, it should
be almost unnecessary to tell him what to
do, except as a means of facilitating his
work, other than by telling him what not to
The most glaring examples of superfluous
work, or misdirected energy, are
mere transcripts of accounts, or so-called
analyses of accounts designed to classify the
entries, which utterly fail to accomplish
what might be written on one line. The
principles actuating accountants in preparing
such papers appear to be to obtain information,
no matter how unreliable or unnecessary,
and to check the mathematical
accuracy of the accounts in that manner.
Practically, they are often meaningless
figures. Cases in point are: analyses of
reserves for depreciation without determination
of the rates and the asset values
constituting the bases for the credits and
without information regarding the charges;
elaborate tabulations of sales, cash receipts
and disbursements, accounts receivable and
payable controlling accounts, etc., the only
practical benefit from which may usually
be derived in a great deal less time by

Olympians from then and now, current and former world champions, and a host of Tour de France talent will descend on southeastern Pennsylvania in early June, all there to contest the prestigious Commerce Bank Triple Crown of Cycling.
Besides lifelong bragging rights, this talented cast of two-wheeled stars will vie for their share of a $142,300 prize purse that includes a $10,000 bonus for the top man and $5,000 for the No. 1 woman.
Battling for all that cash will be a deep field that includes four teams slated to start Julys Tour de France, the Danish-based Team CSC formation, Italian stalwart Liquigas, and American powerhouses Team High Road and Slipstream-Chipotle.
Team CSC will likely be led by Argentine sprinting sensation and 2007 Philadelphia International Championship winner, Juan Jose Haedo. Known to friends and teammates as J.J., this rising ProTour star has already stamped his authority on the 2008 season, taking commanding sprint stage wins at the Tours of California and Georgia. The CSC roster will also include Iowan Jason McCartney, former Vuelta a España stage winner, and a 2004 Olympian.
The Liquigas team is led by sprinter-extraordinaire Daniele Bennati, who in 2007 scored 11 wins at the grand tours and classics. This year Bennati has kept right on rolling, grabbing a pair of stage wins at the prestigious Giro dItalia in May.
Team High Road will likely pin its hopes on the two-headed terror that is 2007 Triple Crown overall series winner Bernard Eisel of Austria and Kiwi Greg Henderson. Eisel won the opening two legs of last years Triple Crown series, easily taking the overall series title. Henderson is a veritable Triple Crown legend, having previously won in Lancaster (2005), Reading (2006) and most impressively Philadelphia (2006).
Meanwhile, upstart Slipstream will feature a roster with no top-tier sprinters, but plenty of horsepower, guile and determination. Be especially on the look out for Dutchman Martijn Maaskant. The rising young star was fourth at this years Paris-Roubaix, putting the cycling world on notice that he will be a force to be reckoned with.
All this top-tier firepower is not necessarily a harbinger of a one-sided Triple Crown affair. Home-grown teams such at Toyota-United, Health Net-Maxxis and Pennsylvanias own Rite Aid squad will all do their best to topple the big boys. Unlike Americas three major stage races -- California, Georgia and Missouri -- the one-day, more wide open Triple Crown events present real opportunity for the domestic based teams. In the previous six years, the domestics are 8-for-18 in their heads-up battle with the big budget ProTour outfits.
California-based Toyota-United boasts an especially large threat to the big boys, spear-headed by sprinter extraordinaire Ivan Dominguez. Despite the presence of four ProTour teams, the Cuban Missile, as hes better known, won the opening stage of this years Tour de Georgia. The Toyota-United roster also includes Boulder, Colorado-native Chris Wherry, the last American to win on the mean streets of Philadelphia.
Also be on the watch for cyclings new bad boys, Rock Racing, which boasts a marquee team roster that includes the likes of ProTour veterans Freddie Rodriguez, Tyler Hamilton, Victor Hugo Peña and recent Redlands Classic winner Santiago Botero. The team captured the first four places at Mays Tour of Colombia prologue, and Rodriguez remains one of Americas fastest finishers. Through the years, hes won almost every Tripe Crown race at least once.
All told, this years mens field includes 25 international and domestic professional teams that will wage a three-race battle that commences June 3rd with the Lehigh Valley Classic, an 85-mile, 12-lap circuit race that traces a twisting path through Allentown and Salisbury Township. Two days later, the Triple Crown race caravan will relocate to Reading for a 75-mile, 10-lap affair that darts back and forth between the citys downtown and nearby Mt. Penn.
Finally comes the mother of all North American one-day races, the Philadelphia International Championship. Celebrating its 24th running, this epic 156-mile test of mettle begins and ends on Philadelphias famed Benjamin Franklin Parkway. In between, a fast field of the worlds 200 best cyclists will hurtle their way around 10 laps of the 14.4-mile primary circuit that includes the infamous Manayunk Wall, with its always-raucous fans and precipitous grades that exceed 17 percent. Ten long laps are followed by three testing finishing circuits up and over Lemon Hill before the 2008 champion is crowned.
The womens three-race event begins with criteriums in the Lehigh Valley and Reading, before concluding with the 56.7-mile Liberty Classic, held the same day and on the same course as the mens finale.
This approximately 120-rider field will also be overflowing with international talent, including Team High Road and its star-studded line-up that includes 2007 Liberty Classic winner Ina-Yoko Teutenberg of Germany, and American star Kim Anderson.
Looking to pull off the upset of powerful Team High Road will be the likes of Webcor Builders, Colavita and Team Tibco, which scored the top podium step at the inaugural Tour of California criterium earlier in the year when Brooke Miller out-kicked Cheerwine speedster Laura Van Gilder. Other potential hurdles for Team High Road include Kristin Armstrong of Cervelo-Lifeforce, and German Regina Schleicher (Equipe Nurnberger Versicherung) who won the Liberty Classic in 2006.
Add up all this talent, and the six-race Triple Crown slate is guaranteed to be among this years most exciting week of professional cycling.

At the 2010 Annual Meeting in Philadelphia there were many patients and doctors who have consistently attended the meetings as much for fellowship as for information. There were also patients who were newly diagnosed and needed basic education on pemphigus/pemphigoid. Anyone who has attended these ŌĆ£marathonŌĆØ weekends knows first-hand how much information is disseminated through lectures, expert panels and town meetings. It can be a bit daunting and always takes time to process, in addition to being exhausting. From past conferences, it has been my experience that by Sunday morning most people have left or are mentally unable to comprehend any more. It was a pleasant surprise this year to find so many still present on Sunday and eager to learn more!
This year I facilitated a group that gave patients time for face-to-face interaction, allowing them to talk in a more conversational way. I was privileged to talk with (not at) other patients with P/P at a breakout session on Sunday morning.
The purpose was to allow patients to share their experiences with each other. Instead of sitting in a panel or conference style, we arranged the chairs in a circle to make the room more conducive to a conversational experience. My purpose was more to guide the group than to ŌĆ£presentŌĆØ, since our experiences have consistently shown that people need to be heard as well as educated. What patients learn from each other is often more important than what can be learned otherwise. Lifelong friendships are made and validation occurs.
Those who attended this session were different ages, nationalities and genders; we also had patients with years of experience and those who were recently diagnosed. In addition, several caregivers attended.
Once people started to introduce themselves and talk about their experiences, the energy level in the room just took on a life of its own. People started to identify with othersŌĆÖ experiences, and the group dynamics changed. This year, we were scheduled for one hour, and fortunately no one threw us out when we went past our allotted time. Will, in his own "Will way", did let us know this could happen at any time — but it didn't. Thanks, Will!
Smaller groups of people began to talk to each other more toward the end, as they related to each otherŌĆÖs stories and experiences in getting diagnosed and treated and could share their own similar experiences. Since this was the purpose of the session, I was pleased that we had met long enough for that to occur. I also gave patients in attendance some inventories to complete on their own to give themselves a better idea of the psychological/emotional toll that these diseases can and do have on both patients and caregivers. A few people have since let me know how helpful it was for them to have words to describe the way they are feeling.
As I told the group in attendance, if someone walked into my psychology office and told me that they had received one of these diagnoses and that they were just fine I would want to know how that could be. The only defense mechanism which allows people to not be affected emotionally is denial. There also remains a number of people who are unaware that the American Psychiatric AssociationŌĆÖs Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM) does recognize that patientsŌĆÖ emotions can be affected by certain illnesses (e.g., 293.83 ŌĆō Mood Disorder Due to. . . [Indicate the General Medical Condition]).
As some with alcohol problems have discovered, Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) allows people to become — and stay — clean and sober by having meetings and sharing stories. Since it is so helpful to talk with others with the same diagnoses but different stories, I have begun to wonder if we may want to begin thinking of our own Twelve Steps. Just a thought…
Remember to take care of yourselves and to not give up hobbies and activities that have provided joy in the past, unless you are no longer able to do them because of your health. And, if that is the case, try to find a substitute hobby or activity to keep joy in your life. This may be challenging, but it is absolutely necessary for your mental health. Stress takes an enormous toll on our physical health, as well as our mental health, so continue to work on more positive coping strategies.
If you need help with this, do not hesitate to ask for it.

Tabernash man rescued from Berthoud Pass
Leonard Somers, 56, of Tabernash, apparently lost control while skiing alone and collided with a stump near Current Creek, near the top of Berthoud Pass on Saturday, Nov 2. He was incapacitated for more than an hour before his cries for help were heard by three locals who were ski touring along the Berthoud Ditch, according to Grand County Search and Rescue.
Grand County Search and Rescue, along with the Grand County EMS Mountain Medical Response Team and the Grand County Sheriff responded to the incident. Ten rescuers were sent into the field. It took four hours from time of notification to access, package and transport Somers about one mile by toboggan to the highway in difficult terrain with 3-foot snow drifts. Somers was airlifted from Berthoud Pass by Flight for Life.
GCSAR reminds skiers and riders to enjoy the backcountry with a companion and be prepared unexpected emergencies by carrying survival gear.

Old Bag out of touch
Every year Barbara Walters puts together a list of the Top 10 Most Fascinating People. The show usually airs in late November or early December, the first position cloaked in secrecy until the very end.
Last year the formidable JK Rowling occupied the top spot. This year, it's very possible. It could be another woman, albeit one who is decidedly less…
Less everything.
Anyway, Page Six is reporting that the other day Barbara was spotted at the Gramercy Park Hotel in New York with Tom Cruise, interviewing him for the special, and if she actually names him to the list, that'll just about seal it: the old bat has lost her sh-t.
Tom Cruise?
But for the reasons we know? For being a GMD? For lobotomising his wife? For orchestrating photo opps with his kid? For his world famous Presentation of Katie Holmes?
If these are the reasons Barbara Walters finds him fascinating, absolutely totally giv'er.
But really…what are the chances?
She'll make like Oprah did and blow sunshine up his ass. And she calls herself a journalist.

Costume drama
Certain film costumes become iconic, like Audrey Hepburn's little black Givenchy dress from "Breakfast At Tiffany's," or the sexy white halter dress Marilyn Monroe's wore in "The Seven-Year Itch."
But does the bias-cut emerald green silk dress worn by Kiera Knightley in "Atonement" best them all? The gown has been voted the best film costume of all time in a survey run by Sky Movies and InStyle magazine.
The dress, worn by Knightley's character, Cecilia Tallis in Ian McEwan's period drama, came in first place out of 10 women's looks in the survey. Monroe's dress was second place, Hepburn's third and the others were Olivia Newton-John's skintight trousers in "Grease," Kate Winslet's blue gown in "Titanic," Diane Keaton's tie and vest in "Annie Hall," Nicole Kidman's corset in "Moulin Rouge," Liza Minnelli's stockings and bowler hat in "Cabaret," Cate Blanchett's regal gown in "Elizabeth: The Golden Age" and Vivien Leigh's billowing dress (also green, we might add) in "Gone with the Wind."
But what about Grace Kelly's white strapless chiffon gown in "To Catch a Thief," Ingrid Bergman's suit and fedora in "Casablanca," Elizabeth Taylor's slip in "Butterfield 8" or even Julia Roberts brown polka dot dress in "Pretty Woman?"
And when are they going to come up with a list for men? We'd love to vote on Bogey's white dinner jacket from "Casablanca," Richard Gere's Armani "American Gigolo" suits, Robert Redford's "The Great Gatsby" style and what about that Rockmount Western Wear shirt from "Brokeback Mountain?"
What gets your vote as a favorite all-time film costume?

I am cooking approximately 30 lbs of boston butt pork roast. (one roast is a little over 15 lbs and the other is a little over 16 lbs) Should I cook the roasts together in one big roaster at about 250 degrees or seperate them? I am doing pulled pork for a crowd. How long do you think this might take?
Thanks in advance for your advice! :)

We love to gather with friends and family to share good food and conversation. We enjoy gathering with like-minded folks to attend concerts and other events. In these contexts, gathering is fun and easy. By comparison, in sewing... gathering is often known as daunting or simply too time-consuming! We believe all gathering should be fun and easy, and we aim to change the perception of gathering with a sewing machine. After reading this tutorial, we bet you'll be inviting all your sewing friends over to convince them just how easy it is to gather fabric. If you do this, we think you should call it "gatherers gathering on gathers!"
Gathers can add to the finish of a project or be a focal point. They can be tight and frilly or loose and billowy. No matter how you use them, they're a great embellishment that has been a favorite for centuries.
The primary reason to gather the raw edge of fabric is to create a ruffle that will eventually be inserted into or attached onto a project.
Not to be confused with shirring or pleating (box or knife) or tucks, gathering creates fullness and shape in fabric that is otherwise flat. You'll find gathering in every area of sewing; home décor, garments, accessories, heirloom, even quilting. Gathered fabric is always sewn to a flat section of a project (usually but not always along an outside edge), such as the bottom of a skirt; or is inserted between a seam, such as around a throw pillow or blanket.
Like gatherings of people, gatherings of fabric can have very different looks. Think about the gathers around a ballerina's tutu versus the gathers around a bed skirt. The tulle used in the tutu is sheer and lightweight. The bed skirt is most likely made of a medium to heavy weight home decorating fabric. The fabric types are obviously poles apart, but what else causes these two projects to look so different?
The appearance of a gathered (or ruffled) strip of fabric depends on three aspects. One is the type of fabric selected for the gather; some fabrics simply gather better than others. Second is the technique you use to actually gather the fabric; we show you several options below. Third is how the original length of the fabric you're planning to gather compares to the length of the fabric you'll be sewing the gathers to. If you're following a pattern, you'll be provided with this third piece of information, otherwise, you need to figure it out on your own.
There is a general rule of thumb regarding the cut length of the piece to be gathered. For medium weight fabrics (cottons and knits), the length should be 2½ times the length of the edge you will be sewing it to. For lightweight fabrics (voile or that tutu tulle above), the cut length should 3 times as long. Remember: the longer the piece, in comparison to what it is being sewn to, the tighter the gathers.
Tools you'll need
- Sewing machine
- Standard presser foot (unless you're using Option #3 below)
- Appropriate needle and thread for your selected fabric
- Seam ripper: not to take out stitches but to help untangle the thread tail at the beginning and end of the stitching (especially for Option #1)
- Straight pins
- Yarn, embroidery floss, or string (for Option #2 only)
How to make gathers
Before we get started, there is one detail you have to pay attention to regardless of the method you use to gather fabric. The gathering stitch should always be sewn within the seam allowance. To quickly review, home décor sewing traditionally uses a ½" seam allowance, most garment construction uses a ⅝" seam allowance, and in quilting, you normally use a ¼" seam allowance. Keep these measurements in mind as you incorporate gathers into your sewing projects.
In many of our tutorials, we like to present you with a number of alternatives so you can try several to find what works best for you. Gathering fabric is no exception. Let's look at the options.
Option #1
The traditional method of gathering uses a double row of long basting stitches sewn ⅛" apart within the seam allowance.
NOTE: In our example below, we're using a plain fabric with brightly colored thread so you can see the technique. In addition, we've placed a different color thread in the bobbin, which you will understand as you continue to read. These stark contrasts are for sample purposes only. We made our straight quilting cotton piece just 9" long, therefore our strip to be gathered is 22½" long (2½ times our straight piece). Finally, we are assuming a ½" seam allowance.
Before starting, decide how you want to finish the opposite raw edge from where you'll be gathering. You can create a double hem, rolled hem, serged hem, etc. The choice depends on your project/pattern. It's simply much easier to do this before the fabric is gathered.
NOTE: You can also cut your strip to be gathered at double the width and fold it in half, creating a folded finished edge. In this case you would then be gathering two layers rather than one. This is often used for the ruffled edge of a blanket.
- Set up your machine for a straight stitch.
- Adjust the stitch length to the maximum. The maximum on the studio machine we used for this demonstration was 5.0 mm.
NOTE: Depending on the type of sewing machine you have, you may find it necessary to loosen the thread tension for gathering.
- Leaving 4" to 6" thread tails at the beginning and end, sew a basting stitch ¼" from the raw edge. Do NOT lock your stitch at either end!
- Sew a second row of basting stitches ⅜" from the raw edge (or in other words, ⅛" from the previous row of stitching). Remember to leave thread tails at the beginning and end, and do NOT backstitch or lock your stitch.
- With these seams sewn, it's time to actually gather the fabric. Remember, your goal is to gather the fabric to the length you need in order to sew it to your project.
- Use a seam ripper to gently untangle the thread tails at either end. This also allows you to identify the bottom (or bobbin) thread.
- Some sewing experts will tell you it doesn't matter which thread you pull to gather the fabric: needle or bobbin. However, our experience tells us differently. Because of the way a straight stitch is formed, the top (needle) thread is held down by the bottom (bobbin) thread. The bobbin thread is always the one that removes more easily and is less likely to break!
- Holding the (bobbin) thread tails firmly, begin to gather the fabric from one side toward the center of the fabric. Your fabric will slide along these threads like a curtain on a curtain rod, forming gathers/ruffles.
- Continue pulling, adjusting, and evening-out the ruffles as you go. Hold firmly but don't yank. If you pull too hard, you could pull our the stitches completely or break the thread.
NOTE: Be sure to review our helpful hints below about marking center points and side seams on the gathered strip as well as the edge you will be sewing the ruffle to. These markings help you maintain an even gather.
- Repeat the gathering, working from the other side into the center.
- When you've achieved the finished length needed, knot the thread tails at the ends to hold the gathers in place. Otherwise, your gathers have the potential to simply stretch back out again!
- Adjust the gathers one final time, evenly spacing them to your liking.
- Adjust the settings on your sewing machine back to regular sewing. Depending on the type of fabric and the amount (or thickness) of gathers, you may have to set your stitch length slightly longer than you would if the fabric was not gathered.
- Pin the gathered fabric to your sewing project. In our sample, we're pinning right sides together; your pattern/project may call for different layering.
NOTE: Our trick is to find the center of both pieces (the gathered piece and the non-gathered piece) by simply folding each in half and marking the center points with pins. Then, line up these center points and pin outwards. This insures your gathered fabric is even along the straight piece.
- Place the pinned pieces under the machine's presser foot with the gathered piece on top.
- Sew slowly and stop periodically to check the positioning. The gathered edge creates an uneven surface that can become bunched up or slip out from under the foot. You can use a pin or stiletto as you sew to keep gathers from becoming unruly.
NOTE: Pins can easily get lost in between the gathers; make sure you're removing them as you sew. The best practice is to never sew over pins.
- Trim the thread tails, and admire your ruffle. See, that wasn't so hard!
Option #2
Also known as the "cheating" method or corded zig zag method, this option uses a long zig zag stitch to couch over heavy thread, yarn or string to gather fabric. For some, this technique is easier to do. Proponents also claim it's easier to remove when completed.
- Set up your sewing machine for a zig zag stitch.
- Adjust the length and width to the maximum. On our machine, the maximum length was 5.0 mm and the maximum width was 7.0 mm.
- Place a heavy thread, yarn or string approximately ⅜" from the raw edge. You don't pin it in place; you simply hold it in place.
- Begin to sew approximately ⅜" in from the raw edge. Your stitch is zig zagging (also called couching) over your yarn (we'll refer to it as yarn from here forward) of choice. Do not catch the yarn in the stitch, otherwise you'll have to start over. You're making a narrow tunnel with your zig zag stitch.
- Also remember to leave long thread tails for knotting at the beginning and end, as well as a tail of yarn for gathering at the beginning and end.
- When you've reached the end, simply remove from the machine.
- Gently pull the yarn you sewed over to gather the fabric.
NOTE: A word of caution; the yarn can pull out very easily from the large zig zag. To be safe, knot one end of the yarn before you start to pull.
- Knot the thread ends to secure in place.
- Reset your sewing machine for a straight stitch.
- Sew the gathers to your project, sewing just to the left of (just below) the zig zag.
- Remove the yarn. Your final stitching now holds the gathers in place. You can also remove the zig zag stitching if it is more visible than you'd like for your project.
- Simple, right? Now, you know why some people prefer this method.
Option #3
You can also use specialty sewing machine feet and attachments (most are optional, meaning they do not come standard with the machine) to automatically gather fabric as you sew. Since Janome is the exclusive sewing machine sponsor here at Sew4Home, we're featuring their specific feet and attachments. Check with your local sewing machine retailer for comparable feet for your make and model.
The Ruffler is a very serious looking attachment, but it's a blast to watch in action. The Janome version is compatible with most sewing machines regardless of brand. You can create different types of ruffles and pleats quickly and easily based on how you set the foot. Be sure to read our product review for a more thorough look at this foot.
Janome has a snap-on foot designed for working with lightweight fabrics. It's called the Gathering foot. It gently gathers the fabric for you as you sew.
Specific instructions come with this foot. In order to sew successfully, you have to lengthen the stitch to 3.0 mm or longer, and tighten the tension slightly. In combination with these stitch adjustments, what really makes this foot work so well is how it's designed underneath. A "bump" on the bottom of the foot causes the fabric to feed slowly against the feed dogs of the machine.
Helpful Hints
It's a good idea to place markings on your fabric for any center or side points prior to the actual gathering. This way, you can match the points between the straight and gathered fabrics and insure the gathering is evenly spaced between the points. Otherwise, you could end up with too much fabric gathered to one side or the other, giving your project a lopsided look.
Sometimes, if you're gathering a very long piece, it can be helpful to work from the center out instead of from edge to edge. You start the gathering stitches in the center, leaving thread tails in the middle, then work out to the edges, first to one side, then to the other side, allowing you to gather two smaller sections instead of one super long strip. This method also makes it easier to match up center points.
Make sure you have enough bobbin thread for the distance you need to sew. If you run out midstream, you'll have to start all over again. You need a continuous length of thread.
Keeping track of all the threads can get confusing. If you use a different color thread in the bobbin, you can clearly see which threads you need to hold. Plus, this is a great use for those left over bobbins you have from other projects! We did this in our example above.
If you hold your finger behind the foot as you do your machine basting, the fabric will start to pucker and gather as you stitch.
This gives you a head start on the gathering process.
If you forgot to mark your center and side points before you started, pin the basted strip to the straight edge at the center and/or the side edges (just these points - don't fill in with pins). Then, gather between the pin points to the finished size.
Experts sometimes sew a third row of basting for more precise gathers. However, this is recommended for medium weight fabrics only.
For the zig zag method, you can also use a foot that is compatible with a zig zag stitch and has some sort of hole or holder on the foot. Janome has a Cording foot that would be acceptable. We used this foot in our example above.
Adjusting tension may be necessary, depending on the make or model sewing machine. When using a basting stitch, you tighten the needle tension so the thread will pull and begin to gather the fabric. When using the zig zag method, lower the needle tension so the fabric stays flat, otherwise the zig zag stitch will pull too tight around the yarn, which can effect the overall gathering later.
NOTE: On the Janome machines we use in our S4H studios, we did not have to adjust the tension settings for the basting or zig zag method, but this might not be the case with your machine make and model, so we felt it was important to mention.
It's not necessary to start with a flat, straight strip of fabric. You can use a folded strip (as we mentioned above in Option #1), a hemmed strip (which we recommended above), a tube, or a bias cut strip.
If the gathering process starts to jam up and the fabric won't move, you've pushed too much into the same spot too soon. Back out the gathers a bit and work in smaller increments; you'll find the fabric starts sliding easily on the thread again.
If you backstitch at the beginning of the basting stitch, it will hold the threads in place as you gather from the other end, eliminating the need to knot them. However, we do not recommend this for most situations and especially not for long pieces; it's usually better to work from two directions.
Sometimes the basting or zig zag stitches peek out from the seam after you've sewn the gathered strip to your final project. Simply remove the stitches with a seam ripper. It will not affect the finished seam.
If you're sewing gathers on loosely woven or jersey knit fabrics, you may find you have to sew seam binding, twill tape, or ribbon just above the original line of sewing to strengthen the gathers.
If you need to press gathers, use the point of the iron on the wrong side to go in and out of the gathers as you press.
If you own or are interested in owning a serger, you can also create gathers by adjusting the serger's differential feed. In addition, you can do something called elastic gathering on a serger. Ask your local sewing machine retailer for a demonstration or visit Janome's Dealer Locator to find a Janome America dealer in your area.

* Dollar strengthens, euro falls
* U.S. crude stockpiles forecast to rise 1 mln bbls - poll
* Coming Up: API weekly oil inventories data at 2030 GMT
(Updates prices in paragraph 5)
By Alice Baghdjian
LONDON, Oct 10 (Reuters) - Brent crude oil eased towards $114 a barrel but stayed close to a three-week high on Wednesday as worries over the security of Middle East supplies outweighed increasing evidence of slowing global economic growth.
Weak risk sentiment coursed through financial markets, pulling down stock markets and boosting the dollar after the International Monetary Fund said a deepening euro zone debt crisis was threatening the global economy.
The IMF said in its semi-annual check on the world's financial health that risks to global financial stability had risen in the past six months, leaving confidence "very fragile."
But shelling along the Turkey-Syria border, hostility between Iran and the West, and an impending Israeli election, have raised worries over the risks to oil supplies from the Middle East Gulf, keeping a floor under prices.
Brent crude fell 25 cents a barrel to $114.25 by 1350 GMT, after hitting its highest level for three weeks earlier in the session. U.S. crude fell 10 cents to $92.29 a barrel.
"It's not that Syria and Turkey are significant oil exporters but Iraqi crude from the northern part of Iraq (Kirkuk) flows via pipeline thorough Turkey to Ceyhan," said Dominick Chirichella, an energy analyst at New York's Energy Management Institute.
"In addition if the Syrian civil war spreads further throughout the Middle East it is only going to result in another level of instability in a region that is very unstable and a region that exports the largest amount of oil to the consuming world countries," Chirichella added.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called an early election on Tuesday, eager to strengthen his political position ahead of any military action against Iran.
"The nuclear dispute with Iran is going to be an election issue in Israel, and this might cause the price to rise in coming weeks, or at least support it," said Carsten Fritsch, oil analyst at Commerzbank in Frankfurt.
"Other factors are playing a hand in this, such as the tensions between Turkey and Syria," Fritsch added.

Global economic gloom, meanwhile, has put a dampener on many markets. China's annual economic growth probably slowed for a seventh straight quarter in the July-September period to its weakest level since the depths of the global financial crisis, a Reuters poll showed.
On Tuesday the IMF said that the global economic slowdown was worsening and cut its growth forecasts for the second time since April, warning U.S. and European policymakers that failure to fix their economic ills would prolong the slump.
The IMF forecast global output in 2012 would grow by only 3.3 percent, down from a July estimate of 3.5 percent.
OPEC trimmed its forecast for world oil demand growth in 2013 on Wednesday due to a slowing global economy and said it expected a trend for ample supply to persist.
"There is no shortage of supply needing to be offset by additional oil at the moment," Fritsch said. "Indeed, it is rather the supply risks and the ultra-loose monetary policy pursued by central banks that are driving the price upwards."
Investors were looking to weekly data on oil inventories from the United States, due this week, for hints on demand at the top oil consumer. Analysts forecast a 1 million barrel build in crude stocks in the week to Oct. 5.
Industry data from the American Petroleum Institute will be released at 2030 GMT on Wednesday and figures from the U.S. government's Department of Energy will follow on Thursday, both sets of figures delayed a day by the U.S. Columbus Day holiday.

Sony a7R III Mirrorless Digital Camera Body
Refine your sense of reality with α7R III — an ideal partner offering superior speed, high-resolution imaging, pro-class operability, and reliable performance even under harsh conditions.
Welcome to a new world of imaging with resolution, sensitivity, dynamic range, processing speed, and shooting response further enhanced. The α7R III packs pro-style operability into a strong, compact body to give you greater flexibility to take brilliant shots in any situation. With such high power, precision, and potential at your command, you can capture once-in-a-lifetime experiences.
The image processing system has evolved to deliver high resolution and low noise throughout a wider ISO range. The camera depicts the mood of every scene's surroundings as well as texture of details.
The Exmor R sensor's back-illuminated, gapless on-chip lens design increases light sensitivity and provides wide dynamic range, despite its high resolution of 42.4M
A new front-end LSI and BIONZ X™ boost processing speed and are teamed with the Exmor R™ sensor to deliver up to 15-stop dynamic range at low ISO sensitivity for stills, enabling richer tonal expression
The standard ISO range has been extended to ISO 100-32000 (expandable to ISO 50-102400), and noise has been reduced by as much as a full stop in the mid sensitivity range.
14-bit RAW format output contains rich tonal information from highlights to shadows, and is available even when shooting in silent or continuous mode
High-resolution Quad-VGA OLED Tru-Finder provides natural, high-precision viewfinder image. The functional advantages of an EVF, such as high visibility in darkness and AF capability when using magnified display, is further enhanced for powerful shooting support. For even greater versatility, the α7R III's small, light body is robust and rigid enough for rugged use.
Capture an instant action with continuous shooting of up to 10fps with AF/AE tracking. Huge data of 42.4MP imaging maintains high image quality that is advantageous for your creative trimming.
This camera allows silent shooting at up to 10fps with AF/AE tracking. Silence is critical for shooting wildlife, when even slight noise can mean missing a chance at an ideal shot.
AF performance is improved by inheriting the AF performance used in the α9 and applying it optimally, so once the α7R III captures a wild animal that moves unpredictably, it won't easily let it go.
399 phase-detection AF points covering approx. 68% of image area width and height plus 425 densely positioned contrast-detection AF points improve focus that might otherwise be unachievable.
Thanks to much more responsive, enhanced Fast Hybrid AF, AF speed is up to approximately two times faster under dim lighting conditions.
The AF algorithm inherited from the α9 accounts for two times more precise AF tracking for continuous shooting, even of complex or sudden movement.
Advanced AF algorithms contribute to high AF precision down to light levels as low as EV-3, for more reliable autofocus in dark scenes.
New multi-selector, AF-ON button, and touch focus functions make focus operation quick and intuitive. With built-in dual slots and compatibility with large-capacity rechargeable-battery NP-FZ100, the α7R III also ensures that you can shoot with far less interruption, because you won't need to change media and battery as frequently.
Capture up to 76 compressed RAW or JPEG images in a continuous burst. This allows you to confidently concentrate on burst shooting without distraction.
With two media slots, including one that's UHS-II-compatible for fast data writing, the α7R III can simultaneously or relay record, separate RAW/JPEG data and stills/movies, and copy data between cards.
The α7R III can use a NP-FZ100 battery with approx. 2.2 times as much capacity as a NP-FW50 battery. USB Type-C™ and Multi/Micro USB ports allow connection of external batteries for extended shooting.
With rating function, you can rate recorded still images from 1 to 5 stars anywhere right on the spot, using the playback screen to perform the function if it is assigned to a custom button.
A series of photos shot in continuous mode can be reviewed as groups, play index display is improved, and continuous groups can be deleted or protected at once
Register up to 30 frequently used items on the new My Menu for instant recall. You can create and customize an optimal menu for your own convenience
Thanks to enhanced 5-axis in-camera image stabilizer, whenever you want to move and shoot freely, you can rely on the α7R III's high-resolution performance and mobility, in order to concentrate on the subject without worrying about various types of camera-shake blur.
New stabilization unit/gyro sensors/algorithms effectively raise 5.5 stops. Five types of camera shake — angular shake (pitch/yaw), X/Y shift, and rotational shake (roll) are compensated.
The α7R III includes USB 3.1 Gen 1 compatible USB Type-C™ port and sync terminals that enable the camera to be connected directly to external devices without delay. These connections make workflow more seamless and stress-free, even for studio shooting that makes use of PC tethered shooting or flash.
USB 3.1 Gen 1 for fast data transfer, this makes PC tethered shooting available for smooth handling of big RAW image files, so you can quickly review images on a PC and continue shooting without much delay for file transfers.
A standard sync terminal is provided for convenient synchronization with studio flash units and other external lighting equipment.
This new Pixel Shift Multi Shooting reproduces still images that contain true-to-life detail, texture, color, and overall atmosphere. (see video below)
In addition to capability to record stunning high-resolution 4K movies through 5K (15MP) oversampling, the camera features a new HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma) picture profile, supporting instant HDR workflow, that offers wide dynamic range for highly precise and lifelike movie images without color grading.
You can shoot and internally record 4K movies oversampled from 5K (15MP) equivalent data in Super 35mm format. The results are startlingly beautiful in every detail. The α7R III features S-Log for flexible expression of images in post-production and HLG for instantaneous HDR workflow, a combination that fulfills various HDR production requirements.
A new HLG picture profile supports instantaneous HDR workflow. Movies recorded in HLG picture mode will appear true-to-life with suppressed blocked shadows or blown highlights, without color grading.
In addition to S-Log2, the α7R III offers S-Log3 for better gradation from shadows to mid-tones and a wide dynamic range of up to 14 stops. New S-Gamut3/S-Gamut3.Cine wide color space is also supported.
The Sony Alpha a7R III Mirrorless Digital Camera Body comes with a full Australian warranty.
Cameras Direct since 2003. Pop into our Gold Coast camera store & warehouse or order online. We look forward to being at your SERVICE Australia wide. We look forward to helping you take a better photo soon. Thank you

'Spot' shortages of flu vaccine, tamiflu reported, FDA head says
(HealthDay)—Sporadic shortages of both the flu vaccine and the flu treatment Tamiflu are being reported, as this year's intense flu season continues, according to a top U.S. health official.
"We have received reports that some consumers have found spot shortages of the vaccine," Dr. Margaret Hamburg, commissioner of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, said Monday on her blog on the agency's website.
Hamburg said that the agency is "monitoring this situation and will update you at our website and at www.flu.gov."
So far, more than 128 million doses of flu vaccine have been distributed, Hamburg said, but not all the doses have been administered to people yet.
She said that people who already have the flu may also be experiencing local shortages of Tamiflu, a drug that can help treat influenza.
"We do anticipate intermittent, temporary shortages of the oral suspension form of Tamiflu—the liquid version often prescribed for children—for the remainder of the flu season. However, FDA is working with the manufacturer to increase supply," she said.
Hamburg also noted that "FDA-approved instructions on the label provide directions for pharmacists on how to compound a liquid form of Tamiflu from Tamiflu capsules."
Flu season typically peaks in January or February but can extend as late as May. This flu season is turning out to be more severe than last year's, many experts say.
Officials at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said on Friday that 47 states were reporting widespread influenza activity, although flu case numbers were beginning to subside in some regions, especially in the Southeast where flu showed up first.
It's still not too late to get the flu shot to help protect you, Hamburg stressed. She noted that it takes about two weeks after vaccination for your body to develop an immune response to provide protection against the flu.
"The flu vaccine is moderately effective this year, and people who are vaccinated have about a 60 percent lower risk of getting the flu compared to someone who is not vaccinated," Dr. Edward Belongia, an epidemiologist at the CDC, said in a statement released Friday.
People who want to get vaccinated can visit flu.gov, click on the "Flu Vaccine Finder," enter their zip code and find a list of clinics, supermarkets, pharmacies and other flu vaccination locations in their neighborhoods.
But before you go to one of the locations, call ahead to confirm that they have the flu vaccine, Hamburg advised.
According to recommendations from the CDC, all adults and children who are at least 6 months old should receive a flu vaccination each year. The best time to get vaccinated is in the fall.

I'm furious with Sirius. I've attached the email I received from them. Yes, the language doesn't specifically say that they are upgrading to the 128K stream, but I tell you after numerous calls (I've talked to 14 customer service, and I use that term lightly, representatives) that thats what *should* be happening.
Based on the email, I upgraded to a Sirius lifetime subscription with the understanding that I would no longer have to pay for the "CD quality" Internet stream. The person I talked to at Sirius when I upgraded the subscription even told me to call and 'cancel my premium Internet service' prior to March 11th, which I did. But I have had nothing but problems with Internet Radio since I upgraded to the lifetime subscription.
What was offered, and what I subscribed to was a lifetime subscription for my radio, and the 128K Internet stream for no additional $.
The latest I've been told, by the last 4 people there I've talked to at Sirius, is that this *apparently* will be resolved on April 28th.
I upgraded to Lifetime partly because I felt like it would help the company get through the merger and help prevent bankruptcy. But the way they have handled this is utterly irresponsible. The service they provide is entertainment - there is nothing entertaining to have to call and argue with every single customer service agent I've had the pleasure of speaking to.
Their silence on this, when it is clear they've dropped the ball, is unforgivable.
Am I the only one who has this issue?
