SANTA BARBARA, Calif. – UCSB Athletics is
proud to once again celebrate diversity through its "Gauchos Give"
community outreach commitment by promoting awareness of Hispanic
Heritage Month. The national celebration runs every year from Sept.
15 to Oct. 15.
"This is the third year we've engaged in this important celebration," said Director of Intercollegiate Athletics Mark W. Massari. "Because we serve as a highly visible part of this incredible university we will always promote important cultural events such as Hispanic Heritage Month. Our over 400 student-athletes, diverse and motivated, never shy away from serving as role models."
Last year, the Gauchos highlighted the celebration by hosting the U20 Mexican National Team at Meredith Field at Harder Stadium in front of over 9,000 fans.
"UCSB Athletics continues to make the community a priority and the Gauchos Give campaign is a clear example of this," said Sergio Villa, past President of the Santa Barbara Hispanic Chamber of Commerce. "I am very proud to be a part of this and I encourage that anyone who has never attended a game do so, as they will not be disappointed."
This year's celebration will include:
· 1,500 free men's soccer tickets set aside (available in blocks of 10 or more) to any Hispanic business or charitable organization including: Boys and Girls Clubs of Goleta and Santa Barbara, Casa De La Raza, Querencia, the Goleta Homework Club, Hispanic Business Magazine, the Children's Museum, The Santa Barbara Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, Spanish Soccer League, Marborg Industries, Univision, Santa Cruz Market, the Santa Barbara Neighborhood Clinic, Citrix Online, Deckers, Hayward Lumber and the City of Goleta. The tickets will be for home men's soccer matches on Sept. 23 (Univ. of San Diego), Sept. 25 (Sacramento State), Oct. 1 (UC Irvine), Oct. 5 (defending national champions Akron) and Oct. 11 (Cal State Fullerton). All non-profits interested in participating with our "Gauchos Give" program, please contact Sergio Villa, Community leader and past President of the Santa Barbara Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, at (805) 621-7006, Jackie Huerta at (805) 621-7016 or (805) 893-UCSB.

The TTs have already been underway for a number of weeks on Wednesday afternoons at Hopelands, a bit tough for me to make it after work - but for those lucky enough to make it you get a timed 16km TT.
Sunday sees the return of the Criterium season. If you want to know what Crits are then I'll try and sum it up:
- Short course, usually less than 3km, often including technical cornering
- Keep doing laps for your allotted time, then you get the bell which means 1 more lap
- Since time is short, there are often many attacks, a lot of fun which develops your "race sense"
To race you will need a Gold/Elite racing license from Cycling WA, so you are insured, at the moment we are not accepting 1/3 day licenses. You can save yourself a spot on the PDCC Website, or just come on down to see if you might be interested.
First race is this Sunday 18th Nov. Registration desk open from 8AM, racing starts 8:30AM. I'll be there running the timing gear.

Species: Doria's tree kangaroo (Dendrolagus dorianus)
Status: Vulnerable (VU)
Interesting Fact: Doria's tree kangaroo is the heaviest tree-dwelling marsupial in the world, weighing as much as 20 kilograms, and is capable of jumping down to the ground from a height of up to 18 metres without injury.
Despite its appearance and arboreal nature, Doria's tree kangaroo is closely related to the well-known ground kangaroos that can be seen across Australian plains, and has similar strongly developed hindquarters and a long, well-furred tail. Unlike its Australian relatives, Doria's tree kangaroo is endemic to the island of New Guinea, where it is found in the central highlands. This species has fairly long fur, which interestingly grows in a reverse direction on the back and neck. This is presumably to stop water running down its face, as this marsupial tends to sit with its head lower than its shoulders.
While Doria's tree kangaroo is thought to still be common in some areas of its range, intense and consistent hunting pressure for its meat has led to the local extinction of many populations of this species. In the past, hunting of this prized game species by local people may have been sustainable, but advances in the development of hunting equipment, combined with a rising human population, has led to an increase in hunting. Habitat loss and degradation of forested areas as a result of exploitation for timber poses an additional threat to Doria's tree kangaroo.
Doria's tree kangaroo is legally protected in the Indonesian part of New Guinea. However, this is not yet the case in Papua New Guinea, and the protection of vital forest habitat in this region has been recommended to ensure the future survival of this intriguing marsupial. In addition, measures to control or restrict traditional hunting have been suggested as key factors in the conservation of this threatened species.

I'm offended that your offended that you feel I am offensive and your offended at that.
I raise this because of the current situation with Germaine Greer, Probably one of the most well known feminists for half a decade ...expressed an opinion ..... She also refused to back down from her position that transgender women, who have begun life as men before undergoing surgery and hormone treatment to become women, are "not women", saying they do not "look like, sound like or behave like women".
It would be unfair to say that is all she said but it was a bbc interview for newsnight should you wish to see it
As usual, having an opinion offends the faux feminists so much so that an expected talk at Cardiff uni has seen some try to ban her from the uni
It would seem ironic that greer who has campaigned for female equal views could now be banned by ...females claiming to be feminists
I feel an empathy with Greer here as the current politically correct police are NOT seeking to enlighten to all views to hopefully raise a general consensus...but instead small minority bullies on the internet are trying to restrict and stop people having different views...but it seems the way of the internet that some go looking for people who are confident in opinion..just to claim they are offended by them and then try for their 15 minutes of "fame" by launching "campaigns" so they can claim to be "activists"...your not! your closed minded ignorant bullies
I will listen to Greer as I would to most people who I feel has a point...that does not mean I will agree with it...it also does not make me a bigot if I disagree with them ....it simply means I have a different view
Personally on this issue ....trans for me has always been about who you feel on this inside and not on the outside...the physical transition is simply the icing on the cake or the last piece of the jigsaw if you will
To end...whilst there is a delicious irony of Greer now facing some of her own sillyness....when "feminists" turn on feminists ..then the balance of the politically correct thought police has gone to far...and that offends me
I'm Offended

Talk:Travelling with children
Err, I know this is just a start, but this is making me think of Wikitravel:Slippery slopes . We really want to avoid lists, can this be turned into more of an article? Maybe some intro text on the issue, and then sections for different types of family travel issues? We need to better define the whole Travel topics area, but this might be a good test case...Majnoona
Re: Although a 5 year old child may be able to travel across town, to and from school, on a bus or commuter train, such short routine trips are relatively low risk, with the child's absence or non-arrival at their destination likely to be noticed promptly.
Maybe I should go live in New Zealand, because here in Belgium I wouldn't let a 5 year old take public transport alone, even if it would be a known route. Actually, these days I have never seen one do it. In my eyes, the parents would be extremely irresponsible. And, seriously, I wouldn't let them do it in New Zealand either... Akubra 15:33, 2 Apr 2004 (EST)
Some more things that families might like to do, and that children enjoy, would be a good addition to this article. At the moment it's too strongly focussed on "children don't like X", "X may forbid children" and so on. Hypatia 08:49, 3 July 2006 (EDT)
I think this article needs a real once over before it can be useful. I'm not sure the current template really works for it either. I'm going to leave it all together for now, but I really think we're going to need to split it out into several other articles. We could go for general travel by age articles (i.e. Travel with infants, Travel with teenagers) or even more fine-grained (Flying with infants, Roadtrips with infants, etc). Thoughs? 184.108.40.206 16:46, 10 December 2006 (EST)
Things you shouldn't do that you do...[edit]
How should we deal with "unsafe but practical" things such as children riding in taxis without a car seat? It's dangerous and bad and wrong, but if you're travelling outside of the US, you're probably going to end up doing it at some point. There are suggestions for what to do-- strap the child into their own seatbelt for example, but that's not really safe, so I'm not sure what to say. I've compromised by at least warning people not to share a seatbelt with a child as I know that's super dangerous, but do we want to say anything more? Advice from others who've travelled with kids would be helpful. Thanks Maj 01:31, 11 December 2006 (EST)
Shouldn't that be "travelling with children" or "traveling as a family" or something? The current title sounds like traveling with your grandparents and your in-laws... Jpatokal 10:08, 21 December 2006 (EST)
XXXX (city) for kids[edit]
I'd like to start the following articles 'New York City for Kids', 'Paris for Kids', and 'London for Kids' (and, of course, many other places for kids). Is there already a template out there for this? The rough idea I have is something like this:
New York City for Kids (would this be geographically under NYC or would it be a reference from within the NYC article)
Getting around (tips on subways, taxis, etc.)
See and Do (a list of very kid-specific things to do and see, each annotated by age).
So, is there already a template for this? Or should I just plunge forward!? --Wandering 16:17, 24 July 2007 (EDT)
I've started a New York City with Children, as yet an orphan. Feedback and organizational suggestions welcome.--Wandering 16:46, 25 July 2007 (EDT)
I like it!! Please add Washington D.C. with children to your list of things to do. 2old 13:27, 27 July 2007 (EDT)
Travelling without both parents[edit]
The article currently contains this advice:
Many countries require that visiting children who aren't accompanied by both their mother and father carry documentation to the effect that all legal guardians agree to the child's travel plans. This may apply even when the accompanying adult and the child are citizens of the country they are travelling to. Be sure to check with an embassy of the country you intend to visit if you are taking any children on an international holiday without both their parents. Legal guardians who are not the parents of the child may need documentation demonstrating their relationship to, and responsibility for, the child, and a parent travelling alone may need either proof of custody or written authorization from the other parent.
This just seems to me to be wrong. I've never known of this to happen, or to be required. If anybody knows of a country where this is the case, please let me know, otherwise I'll just delete it. What form would written authorisation take, if indeed it was required? --Inas 23:31, 21 December 2008 (EST)
Anecdotally only, I have heard that parents (usually mothers who have kept their maiden name, but would also apply to non-parent guardians) have been questioned at borders regarding their relationship with the child they're travelling with. I don't know how such situations are usually resolved though. Hypatia 19:10, 11 February 2009 (EST)
Family lines[edit]
In addition to the above, I am yet to ever encounter a family check-in line, or a family immigration line. Mostly parents and small children are allowed pre-boarding, but if family check-in queues still exist anywhere, they must be very rare. I'll consider also removing this unless someone has knowledge that these things actually still exist. --Inas 17:35, 22 December 2008 (EST)
Parents vs guardians vs caretakers[edit]
Do we want to make more effort in this article to be inclusive of non-parents travelling with children? Two scenarios spring to mind: relatives (grandparents etc) travelling with children and also non-parent guardians. (Genuine question, not rhetorical: do we want to make any effort to do this?) Hypatia 19:13, 11 February 2009 (EST)
Barcelona with children[edit]
I wonder if this draft can become a separate article just as it is right now--and hopefully its growth will benefit from being well-focused, instead of being "spread thin" over Barcelona article. Opinions? --DenisYurkin 14:45, 2 June 2009 (EDT)
Weird word removed[edit]
this unique edit by an IP introduced the word "sewarryats" that I believe is not used in English, so I've removed it from the section title. --Ttcf (talk) 19:02, 28 March 2014 (EDT)

David Frost badgered statesmen and made small talk with stars, but one exchange towered over all the others in his 50-year career.
"You've explained how you have got caught up in this thing," he told
Nixon — three years after stepping down from office in the wake of Watergate — astonished the unflappably British Frost by appearing to acknowledge that "mistakes" may have been too mild a term.
"What word would you suggest?" Nixon asked.
In a 2007 interview with Timothy Naftali, then director of the Richard Nixon Presidential Library & Museum, Frost called it "the most heart-stopping answer I've ever heard."
"I knew that he was more vulnerable at that moment than he probably ever would be again and that I must phrase my response in order to get that across," Frost said. "And I threw down my clipboard to indicate that this was not a scripted job, that this was not a prepared ambush…."
An interviewer who proved as adept at probing the inner Nixon as he was at asking celebrities their secrets to a successful marriage, Frost died Saturday night, apparently of a heart attack, while aboard the cruise liner
He was scheduled to give a shipboard speech and died en route from England to Portugal.
Frost interviewed the last eight British prime ministers and the seven U.S. presidents who held office from 1969 to 2008, according to the Associated Press. His Nixon interviews were the most widely watched news programs broadcast anywhere until that time.
"He could be — and certainly was with me — both a friend and a fearsome interviewer," British
Dick Cavett told the L.A.Times on Sunday that he admired Frost for "his fits of incisiveness."
"He was excessively polite at times," veteran interviewer Cavett said, "and then he would burst out of that and just skewer somebody with a short dagger."
When Frost interviewed U.S. Rep. Adam Clayton Powell Jr. of New York, he wouldn't let the politician off the hook for his alleged misuse of public funds.
"Being his elegant, arrogant, contemptuous self, Powell used the phrase, 'I've paid my dues' at least three times," Cavett said. "On the fourth time, David said: 'We've all heard enough of your wretched dues!' I wanted to kiss him for that and so did everyone in the studio audience."
Frost's best-known interview was with Nixon and it was controversial well before it was aired. Even though the former president was to break his silence for the first time since leaving office, the three major networks wouldn't run Frost's four 90-minute programs. By paying Nixon $600,000, Frost had breached
But Frost, taping more than 28 hours with Nixon at a Dana Point home, contracted with individual stations and made global headlines. Under his questioning, Nixon, at times combative and at others almost teary, acknowledged Watergate's toll.
"I let down my friends," he told Frost. "I let down the country. I let down our system of government and the dreams of all those young people that ought to get into government but think it's too corrupt.... I let the American people down, and I have to carry that burden with me the rest of my life."
Nixon denied committing any crimes or impeachable offenses but said he had lied to the American people while under fierce attack from a "fifth column" of political enemies and journalists.
"I brought myself down," he told Frost, a TV host long known to Americans. "I gave 'em a sword and they stuck it in, and they twisted it with relish. And I guess if I'd been in their position, I'd have done the same thing."
In response to Nixon's question about a better word than "mistake," Frost suggested the ex-president acknowledge wrongdoing in the White House and apologize for "putting the American people through two years of needless agony." In his rambling, 20-minute reply, an emotional Nixon said he'd let America down.
The sessions between Frost and Nixon were dramatized in
Born April 7, 1939, in Tenterden, England, David Paradine Frost, the son of a Methodist minister, attended Cambridge. Active in the Cambridge Footlights, a theatrical group, he was later discovered in a nightclub by a
In 1962, Frost became host of "That Was the Week That Was," a new BBC satirical revue. The following year, he started the same program in the U.S., setting the table for the hard-edged topical comedy of later shows like "
He was relentlessly ambitious and could be arrogant, though his staff seemed to take it with a smile. According to Times columnist Joyce Haber, Frost's secretary is said to have circulated a verse she wrote about him: "A general once lived named DeGaulle/500 years old,10 feet tall/he thought he was God/which really was odd/for God's David Frost, if at all."
Successful both in the U.S. and in Britain, Frost jetted between the two for decades, interviewing celebrities as varied as Timothy Leary and
He also hosted "Through the Keyhole," visiting homes of the rich and famous in Britain.
Critics liked him — The Times called him "rare beefsteak in a marshmallow sundae world" — but some were put off by his hunched-over posture and studied intensity. Writer Peter Heller likened him to "a bemused and somewhat undernourished bird of prey transfixed by a being it finds too fascinating to attack."
Frost, who was knighted in 1993, married Lady Carina Fitzalan-Howard, daughter of the Duke of Norfolk, in 1983. She survives him as do their three sons.
At the time of his death, Frost hosted an interview show for
Talking with the Sunday Telegraph in London last year, he chuckled when asked about critics' occasional complaints that he had "gone soft."
He said former
"I'd be happy to have that on my tombstone," Frost said.

Update: 22/10/2007 - Replaced the old post with instructions for a new Centos 5 VM and sipX 3.8
Initial Configuration
Download the Centos 5 Minimal Installation VMware Appliance from the VMWare Appliance Marketplace.
Start your sipX VMWare virtual machine. Log in as root, with the password password and change the password by typing passwd at the command line. Type netconfig, and select Configure and assign a fixed manual IP address to this PC.
Now we need to set the hostname for this server. Use the nano editor to edit the network configuration file, and change HOSTNAME to sipX.lithnet.local. When done, press Ctrl-X, then Y, then enter to save the file.
nano /etc/sysconfig/network
In order for sipX to install, we need to disable SELinux. Edit the SELinux config file by typing nano /etc/selinux/config and change SELINUX=ENABLED to SELINUX=DISABLED.
Run the following commands in this order, and to all the Windows kids like me, remember that Linux is case sensitive, so take note of the uppercase X in the URL below (yes I stuffed it up myself and it took me about 20 minutes to work out why it was failing – silly muppet).
wget -P /etc/yum.repos.d/ http://sipxecs.sipfoundry.org/pub/sipXecs/sipxecs-stable-centos.repo
yum -y install sipxpbx sipxconfig sipxproxy sipxregistry
(If you want to use sipx as the main PBX (without using Asterisk - not recommended), then install additional modules as required as specified on the sipfoundry web site)
Now we need to fix the SSL certificates. If you have a CA on your network, you can have it generate a certificate for these purposes. Otherwise, we can just generate a self signed certificate using the following commands.
This will prompt you for several pieces of information. Enter the appropriate information, and the following values when prompted.
CA Common Name: SelfSigned
SIP domain name: lithnet.local - The domain name of your installation
Full DNS name for the server: sipx.lithnet.local - Enter fully qualified hostname of your sipX server
Type the following to install the certificate.
/usr/bin/ssl-cert/install-cert.sh sipx.lithnet.local
Now we need to configure the Exchange gateway and rules. Normally, this XML is generated automatically by the web interface as we modify the gateway and dial plan options. We have to do this manually, because the web interface doesn't provide us a way to force sipX to use TCP for a particular gateway. If we configure our dial plans through the web interface, sipX tries to contact Exchange first using UDP, which more often than not results in a timed-out call. The sipX team is working to more natively support Exchange configuration through the web interface in the future. I will keep you posted.
At the sipx command prompt, type
wget -P /etc/sipxpbx/ http://lithiumblue.com/config/external_mappingrules.xml
to download the preconfigured mappingrules file needed to force TCP communication with Exchange. Type nano /etc/sipxpbx/external_mappingrules.xml to modify the file and replace the hostname values as shown below with your own. If for some reason you cannot download the file with wget, you can type it out manually as it appears below.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<mappings xmlns="http://www.sipfoundry.org/sipX/schema/xml/urlmap-00-00">
<!--Note this is only to handle diversions for local sipX 3xx extentions-->
The above rule ensures that calls for 2xx are sent to the Exchange server, and that sipX only communicates with it using SIP/TCP. It also enables diversion to Voicemail for calls to the sipX extensions (3xx). This is independent of the procedure to setup Trixbox/Asterisk to divert to voicemail. The sipX and Asterisk diversion configurations are completely independent of each other.
Now we need to tell sipX that it is responsible for routing calls to 2xx. Without this the calls would be rejected. At the sipx command prompt, type
wget -P /etc/sipxpbx/ http://lithiumblue.com/config/external_authrules.xml
to download the preconfigured authrules file. Type nano /etc/sipxpbx/external_authrules.xml to modify the hostname in this file.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<mappings xmlns="http://www.sipfoundry.org/sipX/schema/xml/urlauth-00-00">
In order for sipX to use these files we created, we need to add some lines into the config file. Type nano /etc/sipxpbx/sipxconfig.properties.in, scroll through the file, and locate the following lines or add them to the end of the file.
mappingRules.externalRulesFileName=/etc/sipxpbx/external_mappingrules.xml authRules.externalRulesFileName=/etc/sipxpbx/external_authrules.xml
Restart the server using the following command
After the server reboots, open your browser and navigate to the sipX server i.e. http://sipx.lithnet.local.NOTE: There is approximately a 2 minute delay between the sipX services starting and being available. If you get an error message when loading the page, wait 2 minutes and try again.
If all goes well, you should be presented with an SSL certificate warning (if you used a self signed certificate). Accept this warning, and when prompted, enter a new PIN for the superadmin account. You will use this to log into sipXconfig on the next screen.
Gateway Configuration
Now we need to add a gateway to allow sipX to communicate with the Exchange Server. Click Devices on the top menu, Gateways, and select SIP Trunk from the Add New Gateway drop down list. Type the following information and press OK.
Name: ExchangeUMServer
Address: dc1.lithnet.local
Now we need to add another SIP trunk for the Asterisk server. Type the following information and press OK.
Name: AsteriskServer
Address: asterisk.lithnet.local
Dial Plans
Now we need to configure the dial plan. Dial rules are used to route incoming calls to the appropriate gateway. Click System on the top menu, followed by Dial Plans. In the Add New Rule drop down box, select Custom as our dialing rule type. Enter the following information and press OK.
Tick the Enabled box
Name: AsteriskDialRule
Description: Forward calls for 4xx-5xx to the Asterisk Server
Dialed Number, prefix: 4, and select 2 digits from the drop down list. Click Add to add new lines.
Dialed Number, prefix: 5, and select 2 digits from the drop down list. Add as many extension ranges as you require for your setup.
Resulting Call, Prefix: Leave the prefix blank, and select Entire Dialed Number from the drop down list
In the More Actions drop down box, select AsteriskServer under Existing Gateways.
Press OK to save and return to the dial plans list. Move the new dial plan to the top of the list, by ticking the box next to the new plan, and pressing Move up repeatedly. Order does matter, so it is at the top. If you don't plan on using the sipX server for any other SIP traffic, you can delete the other dial plans.
Activate the new plans by clicking the Activate button, and pressing OK when prompted for confirmation. Remember that whenever you make any changes to your dial plan, or modify your mapping and auth rule XML files, you must reactivate your dial plan for the change to take effect.
Add an Extension
We will now add an extension for testing purposes. This will help in your troubleshooting efforts should something not work. Click on Users on the top menu, click the Users menu item, and click Add User. Click Show Advanced Settings at the top of the page.

Veteran free agent defensive lineman Ryan McBean visited the Kansas City Chiefs on Monday, according to a source.
McBean spent last season on the Ravens' injured reserve list after breaking his left ankle in a preseason game against the Atlanta Falcons and undergoing surgery to repair the damage.
The Ravens didn't sign McBean to a new contract as an unrestricted free agent after his one-year, $1.214 million contract expired. During free agency, the Ravens signed a pair of veteran defensive linemen in Chris Canty and Marcus Spears.
McBean, 29, is a former Pittsburgh Steelers fourth-round draft pick who has recorded 77 career tackles...


text: Hello all, I have been on Keppra for nearly 15 years and got blood work done last week. It appears there are some abnormalities with kidney function. Have any of you been on it long term or had kidney function to be affected? Maybe a Urinary Tract Infection or stone or blood in the urine? It is cleared through the kidneys, and I did some reading just now, and it can be related to kidney failure. I think that if that is it, kidney function will resolve if taken off of it. It has controlled my seizures what there are since I had surgery, but if I still need med which I think I do due to the kindled focus on the other side, I am not sure what to do. I will discuss it with my new Internist, but she doesn't know this medicine. I'd hate to start a new med at this late date. Any thoughts or experience with kidney function, labs, and Keppra or the generic? Thanks Tattoo

Join actor Jonny Lee Miller and Times staff writer Glenn Whipp at 12:30 p.m. PDT Thursday for a live video chat about Miller's work as Sherlock Holmes on the CBS television series "Elementary."
Miller's Holmes lives in modern New York, where he stayed after a stint in rehab. His sidekick Watson (played by Lucy Liu) is a sober living companion that Holmes' father has hired to keep him on the straight and narrow. Yes, this roguish Holmes sports tattoos, but he also possesses the iconic character's keen mind and quicksilver genius for solving mysteries that stump those around him.
Reviewing the series when it premiered in the fall, Times television critic Mary McNamara praised "Elementary" for delivering "characters at once solidly modern and true to the canon" created by Arthur Conan Doyle.
PHOTOS: Celebrities by The Times
"Miller's Sherlock is more boyish in his troubled brilliance," McNamara wrote, "and clearly a romance with Watson is in the long-term offing, but each episode is less character-driven than those of (PBS miniseries) 'Sherlock,' more focused on the crime, reminding us that Conan Doyle was not as interested in character development as he was in storytelling; he all but invented the procedural."
How did Miller dig in and deliver a wholly original take on a familiar character? And what should we expect next season? Join us for the chat -- with your questions in hand -- to find out.

Hello out there xx thanks to you who came to our shows in the summer. Somehow we managed to sound better not playing for several months? Or perhaps being reunited after a break made me so overwhelmingly happy.
I'm spending the fall & winter writing with a few live dates tba
It's been a really good, really busy year. I'm completely grateful for my glorious band and Carrot Top Records for sticking by me, all the folks who came out to our shows and for those who wrote to me telling me
what my music means to them, which means more than I can ever say.
My kid tells me I should find a new job. One that won't take me away from home. But she also tells me she's going to be a singer when she grows up and sing with me.
I've been thinking about writing another record this winter---not playing live shows so much but instead hunkering down and seeing what happens. And I'm due with a new baby in the spring so I'm prepping for a lot of good things coming.
But I wont disappear for long. I haven't completely figured out how to juggle everything but being a mother has showed me that if you want to get anything done, you just have to stop talking about it and do it.
So we'll see what happens!
Thank you for listening.

Predatron Essential Lights & Skies
This set of 12 DAZ Studio 4.5+ lights includes 11 associated skydomes. Ranging from clear sky, light cloud, cumulus cloud, foggy, heavy cumulus, sunset, night clear, night clouds, dusk, hazy and overcast. Each light is parented to the skydome, so rotate and get different lighting angles with an alternative sky backdrop. All light sets have been split into Indirect Lighting and Occlusion Light options. Be aware that the IDL versions will render a lot slower than the Occlusion option, but the bounce light will be a lot nicer.
This set is a perfect tool for your lighting needs.
Here's the link: http://www.daz3d.com/predatron-essential-lights-skies
Going to be picking these up today, can't have enough light sets :)
Daikatana Posts: 710
Got this today. So far it looks to be a great product!
Carola O Posts: 2,616
Might be a stupid question.. but is it possible to use the skies without the light that comes with the product? Most of the time I prefer to put out my light myself, partly cause it is usually easier on the computer and partly so I can learn more about how it works with shadows and so on :)
Predatron Posts: 33
Yes you can use the lights without the sky, just hide the skydome in your scene.
You can delete the skydome if you wish, but you'll need to unparent the lights first. Probably just easier to hide it.
Or if you want to use the skydome separately, just delete the lights.Post edited by Predatron on
Carola O Posts: 2,616
Thank you, I will pick that up when I am able to :) I really liked those skies in there *smiles*
Serene Night Posts: 13,323
I loved your last set. So far, my favorite set of lights. This looks great as well. Downloaded it today.

Hi Predatron
When i try and load the heavy Cumulus preset i am missing 2 files:
I've re-downloaded and installed both via DIM as well as from the trx but these 2 files don't show up. The others work fine.
The zip file too does not contain these files in its content folder.
Thanks in advance and thanks for the great stuff you produce.
I can confirm that the files are missing, just tried and no go.

In my cart for tomorrow (payday). Thank you. Lighting has always been my enemy.
Jay Versluis Posts: 137
Hi Predatron,
I've just bought this light set over at DAZ, but sadly I can't get the IDL presets to work: all my four machines are crashing about 5 mins into a render, no matter if rendered to a new window or a file. I've tried this on Windows 7, Windows 8 and two MacBook Pro's running Mountain Lion. Any tips?
The occlusion presets are working fine.
Richard Haseltine Posts: 47,704
Are you using the 32 or 64 bit version of DS?
Jay Versluis Posts: 137
I'm using the 64-bit version on both Mac and PC.

Business Results 1 - 10 of 22
Finding a Coffee Shop For TV Repair Near Me in Sylvania OH
Being a great coffee shop isn't just about the quality of your espresso or the ratio of baristas generally interested in your day compared to condescending coffee snobs. It's about those special touches that weave a humble purveyor of warm beverages into the fabric of a community's everyday life. Like free Wi-Fi.
Since nearly every community has at least one caffeine hotspot that serves as a "third place" for people who "can't get work done at home," compiling a list of the 21 best was not an easy task. So to separate the gold from grounds we polled our nationwide staff of city editors as well as some of the biggest names in the coffee world.
In the process we had to cut some iconic local haunts, new-school barista breeding grounds, and roasting titans, so your favorite might not be on the list. If we missed your home away from home, let us know in the comments, and the most popular suggestion will be added to the list as the people's choice. But don't let your vote be swayed too much by a tip flirt.
TV Repair Favorite Sylvania Coffee Shops Open Late
There are many business owners who work from home and like to take advantage of coffee shops open late all around the city in order to set up shop outside of their normal office space in order to just network with other people and even meet clients.
We do it quite often throughout cities in Ohio so its great to have a resource on Sylvania coffee shops near me when out meeting clients in person (something a lot of TV Repair Sylvania OH professionals don't get to do).

Read The #$&% Manual
Come on guys put some effort in to it.
Especially after installing a package the manual pops up in front of you. Manuals are there so people don't have to spend 5 or so hours walking someone through something only having to constatntly repeat the same information over and over again.
Actually it's damn right rude to ignore the help file when someone has put so much time and effort into it.

He is right.
Barry works to create the cutest Puppy in the history of Penguins. Many Puppys create Howto and sticky links and a whole wiki world of wackiness plus help and search and new Pups arrive (welcome new Pups) and expect to be petted and and treated well and thown frisbis and given dogee treats . . .
Hey BladeHunter - be kind to the New Puppys.
Go smash up some equipment if you feel the $3%^!
Wot you expect humans to be reasonable? tsk tsk - not in this dimension . . .
I never even bother with reasonableness - it is sort of mediocre . . .
PS. BladeHunter incidentally has helped loads of Pups with difficult set ups - just so you know . . . must be that time of the month

How about the ppl who ask these questions take the time to read the information that has been supplied to them.
DotPups makers spend tie dong the docs and that, the least the people could do that install them is take the time to read the instructions.
And being kind....try being there to help someone out from 10:30pm to 3:30am in the morning...where 99% of the questions asked were covered in the docs......
And on top of that the same info was being constantly repeated.....I even supplied an online link to the help file and that I suggested they printit out from windows to help them along.
Then when they asked how do I install it to harddisk so I don't need a cdrom to boot I said wait, after I've slept I'll put something toether for you...and what did they do...went ahead and stuffed there windows install up.....thankfully one of the forum members was able to help out with.
It's people that wont read and follow sound advice that (insert bad word here) things up and give Puppy and Linux in general an unfair wrap.

bladehunter, i agree with you.
there's an old saying (at least here in canada) that goes something along the line of
if i went around punching out every idiiot in town my knuckles would be too sore to play the guitar tomorrow night - so i'll settle for just one or two
my point being, it's important to get this sh*t off yer chest, and you have every right to do so. but please try and remember that you can always trust people...
you can always trust people to do what you didn't expect them to to.

I don't suppose it would help for me to point out that since the person writing the instruction manual already knows how the thing works he often unintentionally leaves out basic but important stuff because it doesn't occur to him that someone who wasn't present at the birth doesn't know those things.
It's tough to write a useful instruction manual. How much do you assume that the reader already knows? In the case of Puppy, users seem to span the range from Linux expert to 'how do you turn it on?' A friendly style is nice. Expand the explanations a bit, don't use abbreviations and acronyms any more than necessary, etc.
And, even if you do a good job, most people don't bother to read it anyway. Ah, well.
Someone once said that when developing software you should write the instruction manual first. It
like good advice. Has anyone ever tried it?

This is exactly the approach of the Tmxxine Project (Open Source Time Travel) using Puppy Linux
A lot of people (including my imaginary psychiatrist) think it is a crazy project.. Wikipedia and Wikibooks were so outraged at descriptions of something that is being reverse engineered from future existence they removed all references . . .
. . . meanwhile we are putting the resources together to write the language for the control console for the device
Sorry very off topic - but yes I agree
If instructions are VERY simple they will be useful to everyone
Simple does not mean verbose (covering every irrelevance)
It means concise!

I would just like to add here that I think that Barry has done a brilliant job of adding helpful comments that pop up while you are configuring stuff. His style is perfect. He tells you what you need to know, and often the consequences of decisions as you go along. I can't think of a better-notated instance.
Having said that, those who get help - whether deserving or not - should be prepared to contribute to the overall Puppy effort by writing and publishing their own HOWTOS where they gather all their newfound knowledge and present it to people who are at the same developmental level.

. . . sometimes . . .
. . . a drone escapes from the MS collective. They have heard of a land of penguins but it seems there are hackers and other dubious people around it - they may even be prosecuted for using Linux (oh yes SCO have sown their FUD)
Now they hear of Puppy, it is
easy and friendly
. They have never been on their own. They have to 'burn an ISO' They do not know what an ISO is . . .
After many adventures they find themselves in a world part familiar, part strange and come to this forum . . .
Before they can tell of their adventures and efforts and offer questions a-plenty, they are told to be more self reliant.
"Welcome to the real world"
The idea of control over their OS - the ability to be free of collective viral implants and other systemic malware may be a surprise . . .
"With Freedom comes responsibility," as the advocate said to the Puppy
Everyone is welcome
. Everyone will be frisked.
Stay frisky.

Fourth district rodeo kicks off season
POCATELLO — The Fourth District rodeo season opened over the weekend with a pair of rodeos at the Bannock County Fairground indoor arena and during Saturday's competition a freshman from Firth highlighted the festivities as Rylie Clemens took home the top honors in two separate events to open his high school career.
Clemens opened his day with a 40 point winning ride in the bareback event before following that up with a win in the tie down roping with a time of 14.28.
Barrel racers opened Saturday's rodeo and Highland senior Lyndsie Ekstrom turned in the fastest time of the day with a 16.511. The win didn't come without a harrowing moment however as horse and rider went down in the corner of the arena as they were slowing their momentum, leading to a banged up and bruise Ekstrom being sent to the emergency room. Later in the day the rodeo announcer informed the anxious crowd that Ekstrom was suffering from some bruises but was otherwise fine but mad as all get out not to be able to return to the rodeo to complete her other events.
Ciarra Jean Driscoll and Kimberlyn Fehringer finished second and third.
A pair of Blackfoot cowboys took to the saddle bronc event but neither Carson Prouse nor Colby Giannini were able to complete the eight seconds required for a score.
In the polebending, Fehringer took home top honors with a time of 21.236. Nipping at her heels were Cassidy Quinn and Kassidy Duffin with 21.354 and 21.390 respectfully.
Jacob Partner finished second in the tie down roping behind Clemens with a 14.89 while sophomore brother Hagen Clemens was third with a time of 31.85 which included a ten second penalty for a broken barrier.
Snake River senior Carsey Kofford equalled her first place run from Friday evening in the breakaway roping with another winning effort on Saturday as she blistered the field with a 4.27 run.
Kimberlyn Fehringer was second at 4.97 while Regan Timothy was third in a time of 6.17.
Shelley senior Tate Foster won the steer wrestling with an impressive 6.93 run which beat out Firth senior Cooper Clemens and his 8.45 second place finish. Rylie Clemens showed his skills for a third place finish in the big boy event.
In the goat tying Kimberlyn Fehringer was the lone rider to break the ten second barrier with a 9.54 which was good enough for the top spot with Regan Timothy finishing second with a time of 10.07 and Blackfoot junior Kyliee Goodwin coming in third with a time of 10.19.
Nine different riders took to the bucking chutes in the bull riding event and at the end of the rough and tumble event, just two remained unscathed as Blackfoot's Brady Olsen edged out Snake River's Zane Stephenson with 60 points as opposed to Stephensons 52 for the win in the breath taking event.
The team roping rounded out the day and it was the senior tandem of Cooper Clemens and Kimberlyn Fehringer who emerged triumphant with a winning time of 8.52 on the next to last run of the day.
Rylie Clemens teamed up with Snake River freshman Haizer Simper for second place with a run of 9.99 while the third Clemens brother, Hagen teamed up with Blackfoot's Layton Wasia for the third position in the event.
The rodeo season will continue next Friday and Saturday at the indoor arena at the Bannock County Fairgrounds before shifting to American Falls for the following two weekends.

Infants start out with bowlegs because of their folded position while in their mothers womb. The legs begin to straighten once the child starts to walk (at about 12 to 18 months). By age 3, the child becomes knock-kneed. When the child stands, the knees touch but the ankles are apart.
By puberty, the legs straighten out and most children can stand with the knees and ankles touching (without forcing the position).
Knock knees can also develop as a result of a medical problem or disease, such as:
- Injury of the shinbone (only one leg will be knock-kneed)
- Osteomyelitis (bone infection)
- Overweight or obesity
- Rickets (a disease caused by a lack of vitamin D)
Signs and tests
A doctor or nurse will examine your child. If there are signs thatknock knees are not a part ofnormal development, tests will be done.
Knock knees are usually not treated.
If the problem continues after age 7, the child may use a night brace. This brace is attached to a shoe.
Surgery may be considered for knock knees thatare severe and continue beyond late childhood.
Expectations (prognosis)
Children normally outgrow knock knees without treatment, unless it is caused by a disease.
If surgery is needed, the results are usually good.
- Difficulty walking (very rare)
- Self-esteem changes related to cosmetic appearance of knock knees
- If left untreated, knock knees can lead to early arthritis of the knee
Calling your health care provider
Call your health care provider for an appointment if you think your child has knock knees.
There is no known prevention for normal knock knees.

NewsForge reviews Syllable, and concludes: "Overall, I was pleased with Syllable's speed and ease of use. Most of its drawbacks come from it not being finished yet. The glitches were minor and the lack of features in its applications come from them not being finished yet. I feel kind of guilty complaining that a browser that's on version 0.4 isn't full-featured enough, but for now, these issues prevent Syllable from being useful as a full-time desktop OS."

State Informs Flood Victims on FEMA Trailers
May 21, 2010 by RVBusiness · Comments Off on State Informs Flood Victims on FEMA Trailers
As Tennessee residents begin the process of rebuilding from historic flooding, many are using assistance from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to rent or purchase campers or RVs.
The state's Department of Commerce and Insurance has resources to help residents who opt to do this and issued an advisory this week.
With the money they get from FEMA, residents can rent RVs, travel trailers or manufactured housing. RV dealers must be licensed by the Motor Vehicle Commission.
Anyone who sells a vehicle designed as temporary living quarters for recreation, camping or travel use, and that either has its own motor or is drawn by another vehicle, must be registered with the commission. To find licensed dealers, visit http://verify.tn.gov or http://licsrch.state.tn.us/.
To find information about disciplinary actions taken against licensed dealers, visit http://tn.gov/commerce/boards/archive.shtml.
Manufactured homes are regulated by the Manufactured Housing Division of Fire Prevention (http://tn.gov/commerce/sfm/manufactHouse.shtml#).
The Consumer Affairs division also might have complaint information related to sellers of such vehicles on file. Visit www.tn.gov/consumer/ to check the complaint histories of specific companies.
Tennesseans weighing transactions with sellers should, at a minimum, follow these guidelines:
- Understand the rental company's rules and requirements before you sign a contract.
- Do not take chances. Rent only from licensed dealers. Check references of previous customers or the Better Business Bureau.
- Obtain a copy of the company's policies regarding cancellations, security deposits and any additional fees.
The Department of Commerce and Insurance works to protect consumers while ensuring fair competition for industries and professionals who do business in Tennessee.

Sustainability is a concept that first emerged out of ecology to address the capacity of biological systems to remain diverse and productive over time. A variety of disciplines now use the term to describe continued existence as the condition of the interaction among three things: the natural environment; the economic activity through which we transform it; and society, which both directs and lives from this productive work. Sustainability is, in effect, the idea of a balance between the environment, society, and the economy in which each finds a level that permits the flourishing of the other two. In a sustainable world, economic production proceeds without degrading the environment or society to the point they are no longer diverse and productive. The environment is protected, without stifling economic activity, and society flourishes without sacrificing the interests of future generations for short-term economic growth.
Jacksonville University seeks to be "widely recognized as a national model for a Green University" through its teaching, research projects, and campus activities.

Struggling DEI and Ginn form 4-car team
by Pete McCole
In an effort to bolster two struggling race franchises, Dale Earnhardt, Inc. and Ginn Racing have announced they have merged their teams, effective immediately, creating a new powerhouse four-car Nextel Cup operation that will debut this weekend at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
The new merged organization will race under the DEI banner and will combine DEI's three teams – driven by Martin Truex, Jr., Dale Earnhardt, Jr. and Paul Menard – with Ginn's no. 01 Army Chevrolet, driven by Mark Martin and Aric Almirola.
Ginn's no. 13 team, previously driven by Joe Nemechek, will cease operations, while Ginn's no. 14 team – driven by Sterling Marlin – will transfer its 34th -place owner-points to Menard's team, locking him into a guaranteed spot in Sunday's Allstate 400.
Teresa Earnhardt, who has been the sole owner of DEI since the death of Dale Earnhardt, Sr. in the 2001 Daytona 500, will continue to own the cars of Truex and Earnhardt, Jr.
Ginn Racing owner Bobby Ginn will continue to own the no. 01 car, as well as Menard's no. 15 DEI entry.
The merger is seen as an opportunity to rebuild both
organizations into solid contenders on the racetrack after a lukewarm season
that has seen both teams suffer setbacks.
In July of 2006, owner Nelson Bowers sold the team to Ginn, a
Florida-based real estate developer.

African Countries Promote Voluntary Male Circumcision Ahead of World AIDS Day
December 2, 2013
"As activists and educators worldwide prepare to mark the 25th observance of World AIDS Day on December 1, efforts to curtail the spread of HIV infection in parts of Africa include scaling up efforts to promote voluntary circumcision among adult males," USA Today reports (Healy, 11/28). "Nearly two million men have volunteered to be circumcised using U.S. funding in 14 African countries to protect themselves against [HIV], health officials said Wednesday," NBC News writes, noting PEPFAR "said in 2011 it would help pay for 4.7 million or more voluntary circumcisions over the next two years." The news service adds, "It's a small step forward in the fight against the deadly virus, which infects 35 million people globally and has killed another 36 million people, according to the United Nations" (Fox, 11/27). Deutsche Welle examines voluntary male circumcision efforts in Rwanda (Johannsen, 11/29).

Finding fresh, locally grown produce is not hard, if you know where to look. Some families look no further than their own backyard gardens. But for those without a backyard garden, nor the time or inclination to garden, fresh produce can be found in community supported agriculture (CSA) co-ops, farmers markets and a few "pick your own" gardens.
The majority of the "pick your own" farms offer fruit and/or a variety of berries. Among the few "pick your own" produce farms are Day Farms in Layton, Farnsworth Farms and Cider Mill in Sandy, and Bascom Farm Produce in Orem.
Day Farms is a 20-year-old family farm located on West Gentile Road in Layton, operated by Bill Day and his sons, Tom and David.
"We are trying to preserve the farming way of life," VeeAnn Day said in a recent interview. VeeAnn, David's wife, works with the sales end of the business.
"We have a lot of families come pick produce," VeeAnn Day said. "It gives kids a chance to see where food comes from. I've observed that when kids pick their own fruit and vegetables, they are more likely to eat it."
"A 'pick your own experience' gives the consumer a chance to see and taste produce and fruit that has ripened in the garden," said David Cornaby of Cornaby's Farm in Salem, Utah. "Many people have never tasted field ripe food. Most food that is shipped to our local markets has been bred for its shipping quality, not for its taste."
"We come here (to Bascom Farm Produce) because this is a guaranteed way of getting local produce," Jen Bracken-Hull said. "It's different than farmers markets because we can pick what we want. It's also good for my little girl to see where food comes from."
McBride's Briar Patch, an acre and a half berry farm in Mapleton, is owned by Wayne and Joyce McBride. They grow a wide variety of raspberries and blackberries. "Families come to pick berries for home evenings," Joyce said. "BYU students come to pick as a date."
However, there can be a downside to the "pick your own" experience.
" 'Pick your own' produce presents challenges because of the liability," said Dean Miner, director of the Utah County Extension Service in Provo. "Produce picked by nonprofessionals often damages a garden, as well."
To make your "pick your own" experience positive and to limit the possibility of injury while picking your own food, follow these tips.
• Dress appropriately. The ground may be uneven, or there may be rocks or insects, so don't wear flip-flops or sandals. Long-sleeved shirts and long pants will help protect arms and legs from scratchy leaves or berry thorns and bugs. Wear a hat and/or sunscreen.
• Walk in the paths provided, not through or on the plants.
• Be gentle with the plants. Don't yank, pull or break leaves or stems when picking.
• If you don't know if something is ready to pick or you're not sure how to pick it, ask the farmer.
• Most "pick your own" farm websites share the following kind of information: a phone number, driving directions, information about what kind of produce is currently ready for picking, and prices.
However, websites don't always contain current information. So it is advisable to phone ahead to find out what is actually available, what current prices are, hours for picking and if containers are provided to carry the picked produce, or if you need to bring your own.
• Although some farms may accept credit cards, be prepared to pay with cash or a check.
This list of resources will help you get started in your quest for a "pick your own" food experience this summer.

Phoenix, Ariz., Oct 17, 2013 / 12:31 am (CNA/EWTN News).- An Arizona-based international development organization has announced its expansion into Peru to help impoverished rural families who live near the famous Incan sanctuary of Machu Picchu.
"For the past year, we've been looking at South America and planning our expansion," Tom Egan, president and CEO of Esperança, said Sept. 27. "The need in Peru is great and we're excited to bring hope to the people."
Esperança provides volunteer surgical missions, health education, training for community health workers, home building, clean water projects, business expertise, agricultural development, and dental programs. It helps send donated medical equipment and supplies to project sites around the world.
The organization was founded in 1970 by Phoenix attorney Jerry Tupper to help his brother, Franciscan priest Father Luke Tupper, serve the poor in South America.
The organization's Peruvian expansion will feature a partnership with the Peruvian agency CADEP, based in Cuzco. The agency has 40 years of experience in helping indigenous communities, especially women and children.
Esperança said that the thousands of tourists who visit Machu Picchu each year do not realize the "extreme poverty" of the families who live in hundreds of rural villages in the region. Some villages are so remote they can only be reached by car on drives of eight to 10 hours on winding, treacherous roads.
Many of the region's families suffer malnourishment, unclean drinking water and poor housing conditions.
"Despite this area being one of the top producers for potatoes, families asked how to plant more fruits and vegetables, so that they would have a well-balanced diet," Egan said. "We're looking forward to helping these villages and working directly with CADEP to maximum our efforts."
In 2012, Esperança served over 100,000 people in four countries. The organization's website is www.esperanca.org.

I bet this is possible, but I am not (yet) brave enough to try.
I have a problem with a site such that I can see neither front-end nor access wp-admin from a browser.
Server support people are helpful but slow - could be suhosin, maybe not - whatever...
It occurred to me that one way to test this quickly would be to revert to another theme, but of course I can't access wp-admin to change via dashboard.
So - is it possible to change theme directly from phpMyAdmin.
If so - where do I go ? and what do I do ?

Ram airs can be VERY difficult to relaunch e.g.
It took a long time for the guy in the video to relaunch his Flysurfer and the kite almost became completely un-relaunchable on two occasions through bow-tying. If only ONE wave had landed on it, he would have had to swim in, dragging his waterlogged kite with him. While it is always a gamble if a kite gets caught by a wave, at it has a fighting chance if it is an inflatable.
Some rams can reverse launch, but so what... a lot of inflatables can reverse launch. Rams can launch directly downwind in the water, but so what... so can a lot of inflatables. For intermediates and above, relaunching should not even be considered in the equation because a) they won't be dropping the kite much anyway and b) Relaunching inflatables is EASY. Commonly, ram airs will not relaunch properly because of twisting, bridle tangles, or waterlogging. These aren't such big problems with inflatables. Check out these links about ram airs sinking or becoming un-relaunchable:

ALL ram airs become hopelessly waterlogged >45 minutes, un-relaunchable and certainly unable to support body weight.

The following is an example of "diraklib's" experience with ram airs in wind dropouts:
For the full epiphany, checkout viewtopic.php?f=1&t=2360979&start=40diraklib wrote:"the SA-19 is huge and can whack you silly if you let it get down wind of you in a low wind launch. It is downright scary - be ready with the QR at all times if not up and riding!!! I can't say I agree with claims that you can ride the SA-19 in anything lower than a steady 8 knots. I made a personal choice to not ride the SA-19 any more. It went down twice in lulls and managed to bow-tie on the way down - there was no way to relaunch. I was not as lucky as others that self rescued. My kite was full of water by the time I dragged my very tired and frustrated a$$ to shore. It sounds simple, "wrap the lines around the bar, fold the kite in half, roll it up on your board and paddle in"... noooo... there are lines everywhere under water that wrap around your feet as you are trying to manipulate the kite. You just pray that a gust won't pop the kite up and slice of an appendage. The kite ... is just too scary when it goes down. My attitude now is - if my LEI won't fly, I shouldn't be on the water. Anyone interested in a slightly used SA2-19m??? Cheap???"
The following is an example of FredBGG's experience with a line failure:
For the full admission viewtopic.php?f=1&t=2362065FredBGG wrote:The other day I had a front line fail.
Wind was slightly off shore...
I really needed a tow to the beach.
I had the kite safely on the 5th line folded in half (flysurfer Foil)
I waved down two kiters.... both expert judging by their riding.
Both refused to help.
One even yelled if you can't relaunch it's your problem.
Anyway after a difficult ordeal in the surf and current I got back to the beach.
I had to rest a bit but my board was still out there.
The problem here isn't with the other kiters, it's with Fred's choice of kite. If Fred had an inflatable, he would have been able to "self-rescue" by grabbing the tips and "sailing" to shore. The other kiters refusing to help is understandable: Fred opted for less safe equipment. It's his problem and he shouldn't impose on others to make up for his equipment deficiencies. Also, towing a ram air to shore is like towing a sleeping bag full of water - difficult and dangerous.
Ignore the ram air lies.
And constant propaganda.
Of the lesser kites.

The nitroblue tetrazolium test looks to see if certain immune system cells can change a colorless chemical called nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) into a deep blue color.
Alternative Names
NBT test
How the test is performed
A sample of your blood will be taken out of a vein.
The chemical NBT is added to the white blood cells in the lab. The cells are then examined under a microscope to see id the chemical has made them turn blue.
How to prepare for the test
If a child is having the test, it may be helpful to explain what will happen and how the test will feel. Knowing the "how and why" may help the child relax.
How the test will feel
There may be slight pain or stinging feeling when the needle is inserted to draw blood. There may be some throbbing at the site after the blood is taken.
Why the test is performed
This test is done to screen for
People who have frequent infections in the bones, skin, joints, lungs, and other parts of the body may have this test done.
Normal Values
Normally, the white blood cells turn blue when NBT is added. This means that the cells should be able to kill bacteria and protect the person from infections.
Normal value ranges may vary slightly from one lab to another. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your test results.
What abnormal results mean
If the sample does not change color when NBT is added, the white blood cells are missing the substance needed to kill bacteria. This may be due to chronic granulomatous disease.
What the risks are
There is very little risk involved with having blood taken. Veins and arteries vary in size so taking blood may be harder in some people than in others.
Other slight risks from having blood drawn may include:
- Excessive bleeding
- Fainting or feeling light-headed
- Hematoma (blood accumulating under the skin)
- Infection (a slight risk any time the skin is broken)

The University has unveiled an ambitious series of ads that focus on students' drive and the importance of Suffolk as a Boston institution.
More than a dozen print and outdoor ads celebrate Suffolk's success in developing accomplished graduates who are making a difference in Boston and beyond.
A television commercial that debuted June 27 features the iconic scene from the 1954 film On the Waterfront where Marlon Brando's character laments the wrong decisions he has made in his life and how he "coulda been a contender." The spot concludes with the simple copy, "Be a contender. Suffolk University."
Focus on "resourceful" students
"Suffolk is a proud institution that has long championed the resourceful and the deserving, and this campaign is a powerful reminder of our heritage, our mission and our accomplishments," said James McCarthy, president of Suffolk University. "We're proud of who we are, and it's important to let students, parents, employers, alumni and the city of Boston know of the tremendous role we play in developing student potential and providing opportunity to the next generation."
The ads by the DeVito/Verdi advertising agency celebrate the work ethic and passion Suffolk students are known for, using headlines such as "Passion is a requirement, not an elective," "Suffolk students rely on their will to succeed, not their father's will" and "For students who believe college is a privilege, not a birthright."
Combining humor and emotion
"We're working with an agency known for its sense of humor and ability to create emotional connections." said Greg Gatlin, vice president of communications. "They're known for that ability to cut through the clutter and sometimes be a little edgy. If you can make someone laugh or show them a smart ad–and perhaps more importantly, create an emotional connection–you may begin to engage them in an important conversation."
The television commercial debuted on NESN during the June 27 Red Sox/Yankees game, and the campaign will run throughout the year.

A 16-year-old boy was charged this morning in connection with a fatal traffic crash that left a police dispatcher dead over the weekend.
Marquis Harrison, of the 200 block of South Lotus Avenue, was charged as an adult with one count of first-degree murder and felony burglary, according to the Cook County state's attorney's office. He was also charged with misdemeanor DUI and received two citations.
Authorities said the teen was driving a stolen Range Rover at 6:15 a.m. Sunday and was being chased by police when he plowed into a car near the intersection of Hoyne and Armitage avenues that was driven by Marciea Adkins, a veteran police dispatcher on her way home after working the overnight shift.
The crash startled severalBucktown residents from their sleep as Adkins' car seemed to buckle around a fire hydrant on the driver's side, and the SUV, crashed into a building.
The 16-year-old had touched off a nearly 2-mile pursuit after he backed into a police vehicle during a traffic stop for failing to stop at a red light, police said.
Adkins, 42, was married to a dispatcher for the Chicago Fire Department and the couple had a young daughter.
The city flag at the city's Office of Emergency Management and Communications was lowered to half-staff on Sunday, and Adkins' body was escorted by police and fire vehicles from Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center to the Cook County medical examiner's office.
After police had tried to stop the teen at Blackhawk Street and Elston Avenue, he fled north, winding up on Hoyne, where he struck Adkins as she drove west on Armitage, police said.
According to department policy, officers must contact an OEMC dispatcher with details about any pursuit, and a supervisor must monitor and manage the chase. Sources told the Tribune that the pursuit Sunday was called into the dispatch center and monitored.
Police had activated their emergency lights and sirens, but the speed the vehicles were traveling was not released Sunday.
After the crash, the 16-year-old bolted from the SUV, rolled over the hood, darted down a narrow gangway and into an alley and fled west, a witness said. Officers did the same. They rolled over hoods and chased him on foot, catching up with him nearby.
"It was just like you see in cop videos," said a woman who didn't want to be named because she helped identify the teen to police. "They were doing their job for sure."
Once arrested, the teen, who allegedly had been drinking, was taken to a hospital for treatment.
It was the chase on foot that woke up Teddy Vehar, 29, whose window is beside the gangway the teen charged through. He heard "flip-flop" steps, he said.
"It sounded like he had big old feet," said Vehar, who grabbed a bat and ran to his front door in the 2000 block of North Hoyne, preparing to confront a criminal.
But outside, he instead saw Adkins' wrecked car. She was trapped and not moving. Others said her head was slumped to the side.
Stunned, Vehar offered his bat to help free Adkins, who he said appeared to be turning white. "The poor lady," Vehar said.
Vehar and others said the Fire Department worked frantically to free Adkins, crawling over the hood of the car to reach her.
"It's just sad," said Mike Byrne, 29. "Looking at her, you knew she was gone, and even if she wasn't, it wasn't going to be easy to bring her back."
The teen is expected to appear in bond court at noon.
