RICHMOND, Va. – VCU Head Women's Basketball Coach Marlene Stollings continues to assemble her staff as she begins her inaugural season with the Rams. Stollings today announced the addition of Cody Henry as the program's video coordinator.
Henry, who has worked with Stollings since her time as associate head coach at Ole Miss, comes to VCU after serving as a graduate assistant coach at Winthrop in 2011-12. In his new role, Henry will be responsible for all video aspects of the program, including editing, film exchange, and highlights, while also coordinating the male practice team, assisting with mail outs and scouting reports, as well as serving as camp liaison.
"I am extremely happy to add Cody Henry to our staff," said Stollings. "He is exceptionally bright and has an incredible drive to succeed. Cody brings a tireless work ethic and tremendous skill set for this position. The entire VCU family will gravitate toward him."
Henry first joined Stollings' staff as a male practice player at Ole Miss in 2008. His efforts did not go unnoticed as Stollings invited him to join her very first staff at Winthrop a season ago, where he played an integral role in all facets of the program with an emphasis in video.
"I am thrilled to be on Coach Stollings' staff," Henry added. "She is an exceptional leader and will take VCU to many A-10 championships and NCAA appearances. She has been my mentor for the past few years, taking me from a practice player at Ole Miss, to a graduate assistant at Winthrop, to Video Coordinator at VCU. I am very proud and blessed to be working with her. This opportunity to join the VCU family is super exciting. VCU is a great school, with amazing people, and an outstanding program."
Henry, who is currently pursuing his Master's degree at VCU's Center for Sport Leadership, earned his Bachelor of Business degree in Banking and Finance, Managerial Finance and Real Estate from Ole Miss in May of 2010. In addition to serving as a practice player for the women's basketball program, he managed suite attendants as an intern for the Ole Miss Skybox. Henry was recognized with numerous accolades, including Gamma Beta Phi Honors Society, Phi Kappa Phi Honors Society as well as being named to the Chancellor's Honor Roll and the Dean's Honor Roll during his time in Oxford, Miss.
Prior to his arrival at Ole Miss, Henry played basketball for Otero Junior College in La Junta, Colo. He graduated Magna Cum Laude from Otero in May 2008 with an Associates Degree in Science, while earning Academic All-America status as well as Academic All-Region honors that same year.
As a prep player, Henry was named the Denver Post Player of the Year while leading his high school team to a state championship his senior season. Henry was selected the MVP of the state tournament. He was also named his high school Valedictorian.
The Joes, Colo., native has also volunteered for the Oxford Lafayette Humane Society, Boys and Girls Club and High Plains Elementary.

State Sen. Wendy Davis of Texas, who became an overnight celebrity with her one-woman stand against tougher abortion restrictions, announced Wednesday she will reveal her next political step in two weeks, amid strong signals she will launch an uphill bid for governor.
In an email to supporters, Davis said: "There's one question I've gotten quite often in the past few months. I've heard it online, while I'm traveling around the state, from the media and in my Fort Worth neighborhood: What's next?"
She invited supporters to be "among the first to know" by signing up for an alert the day she makes her announcement and urged them to spread the word via social media, which helped her skyrocket to fame during a June filibuster against anti-abortion legislation.
Matt Angle, a veteran Democratic strategist and Davis advisor, said "things are progressing in such a way" that should please those encouraging her to run.
She is expected to formally announce her candidacy Oct. 3.
Davis filibustered for 11 hours in an attempt to block legislation severely limiting abortions in Texas. Although the law ultimately passed, she garnered a nationwide following and was immediately urged to consider a run for governor—an office no Democrat has won in Texas in more than 20 years.
Traveling the country, Davis has raised more $1 million in recent months and built a nationwide network of support. Even so, a run for governor would be a steep challenge and Davis would start as a decided underdog, as Angle acknowledged.
"It's a long path, it's a narrow path with a lot of hazards along the way," he said.
But, he said, if Davis runs she would do so convinced there was a plausible way to win. "She's not interested in running to get close," he said. "That doesn't guarantee a win. But it means she isn't running just to run."
The frontrunner to succeed Republican Rick Perry, who is stepping down, is Republican Atty. Gen. Greg Abbott, who has already raised more than $20 million for the race. Tom Pauken, a former state party chairman, is also running for governor on the Republican side.

Hi, Steve...
Directly from our Betterlatethannever Dept., which is to say, directly from our Everythingwedo Dept., here's a link to a piece we wrote that recently ran in MAGNET extolling the virtues of a song by Steve Koester (now Two Dark Birds) and a band you never heard of unless you grew up in the same 1980s south Jersey we did, the Magnets.
Advisory notice: with our recording in a slow-motion death-throes finish that makes Rasputin look like a pushover, and with our now-standard real-life & family shenanigans, there wasn't a whole lot of time put into this. That would normally mean brevity. In our case it means unedited excess (sort of like the state of the current album).
So wrote one article – the Koester one – got bogged down and so whipped out another one, the Magnets one. Lost our way in the woods on that too. So gave up & handed both in and MAGNET was kind enough to mush them together into one Ramblin' Man of an article, complete with Dickey Betts solo. So that's a long way of saying it's a tad on the long side.
Get comfy and read on, here.
thanks as always for hanging around,
the wrens

Plaza de Espana in Sevilla, Spain, Andalusia (Place d'Espagne, Séville) - HD Photos
The Plaza de Espana in Seville, Andalusia
During our visit to Sevilla, we have spent nice time on the Plaza de Espana, a spectacular place made in 1929 for the Ibero-American Exhibition. The place is huge (about 49'000 meter square), and the buildings are still in pretty good conditions, with very charming Art-Deco architecture. Today, this is where is the City Hall of Seville (Andalusia, Spain). It's also a nice location for shooting movies (including Star Wars), so also a nice one for shooting great photo including good portraits! We started the visit with nice sunny conditions, finishing with a rain storm, which made the plaza shining when the sun came back!
All photos were shot with Canon EOS 5D MKII and Canon 16-35mm 2.8 L USM II lens, Canon 24-70mm 2.8 L USM and Canon 100-400mm 4.5-5.6 L USM, treated with Adobe Lightroom 4.3.

Medical marijuana: Truckee gets Americans for Safe Access chapter
TRUCKEE, Calif. – Americans for Safe Access has expanded the Nevada County chapter of the national organization into the Truckee area. The first meeting is scheduled for noon March 9 and will continue to take place the second Saturday of the month in the Truckee-Donner Community Recreation Center Conference Room.ASA is the largest national member-based organization of patients, medical professionals, scientists and concerned citizens who support cannabis for therapeutic use and scientific research. The organization works on the local, state and federal levels to promote laws that protect patients' rights.ASA membership provides access to resources designed for budding activists, including the Training Center, Think Tank & Policy Shop, Federal Advocacy Project and the Patients' Right Project. ASA-NC hosts numerous educational events, including recent medical discoveries, legal rights seminars, responsible growing techniques and Good Neighbor policies. The group occasionally hosts fun events like movies, music festivals and community barbecues.Founded in 2002 by Steph Sherer, Americans for Safe Access strives to overcome political and legal barriers to medical cannabis by using a multifaceted approach that incorporates public education, grassroots activism and media campaigns. ASA has worked with local governments to draft sensible regulations that work to benefit the community. When negotiations fail, ASA's legal team will institute proceedings against any policy that infringes on patients' civil liberties or any attempt to restrict safe access to medicinal cannabis.Americans for Safe Access recently hosted a National Unity Conference in Washington, D.C. In an effort that might qualify for the Guinness Book of World Records, hundreds of activists from across the country met to lobby with every senator and representative in a single day. The group hopes to raise support for pending legislation that would recognize states' rights to chart their own course on medical marijuana without interference from the federal government.For information, visit http://www.asa-nc.com.- Look for more to this story later in the week at http://www.sierrasun.com.

Wal-Mart just announced it plans on spending $453 million to expand in Canada.
The move is seen as Wal-Mart's latest attempt to bolster its Canadian presence before competitor Target can complete its own aggressive expansion.
"Wal-Mart appears to be playing some defense as Target is set to enter the market this year," wrote Evan Clark at Women's Wear Daily.
Wal-Mart will have 388 stores in Canada by the end of next year, according to Clark.
Meanwhile, Target is preparing to enter the country in a big way. The first stores will open this Spring, and the discounter says it will open 135 locations by the end of 2013.
Wal-Mart opened in Canada several years ago.
The market is appealing to discount retailers because at the moment, Canadians don't have much to choose from.
This isn't the first time Wal-Mart has played defense over Target's arrival.
Wal-Mart has discussed slashing prices to undercut Target. Meanwhile, Target has said it will be careful to tailor assortments by region.

Sarah Graham's sculptural jewelry pushes the boundaries of convention through her use of the contrasts inherent in 18 karat gold and blackened steel; of black, white and cognac diamonds; of Akoya and Tahitian Pearls. Her signature combination of black, white, and gold colors immediately identifies the artist. Celebrities such as Sharon Stone and Kim Basinger own her jewelry.
Sarah's inspiration, grounded in nature is evidenced in her major product lines: Manzanita; Pebbles; Stepping Stones; Oyster; Conifer; Shadow; Foil; Hemp and Rogue River; and her line of Bridal rings – Kyoto, Bamboo, Leaf, and River Rock. Sarah's process of design and construction of prototype models (she spends days experimenting with each new design piece) is grounded in one of the cardinal virtues found in Nature – that of patience.
Sarah Graham Metalsmithing creates important jewelry for everyday wear, pieces that announce the confidence you possess in your own personal style.

Open House Pick Of The Week: Kapahulu
Rarely available condo unit expected to sell fast.
When I was looking at this new two-bedroom listing in Kapahulu, I asked realtor Khai Tran about similar properties in the area so I could get a feel for how it stacked up. One of the reasons he thinks it's going to get snapped up quickly is the fact that there aren't many in the area, much less on the market.
"The general Kapahulu area doesn't offer many condos, so it's pretty rare compared to areas like Makiki or Waikiki," Tran says. "Condo buyers usually focus their search in those areas simply because that's where all the units are, and may not think to look in Kapahulu. With that said, this also isn't so busy or noisy compared to a comparable condo in another area.
"At this price point you're more likely to find decent one-bedrooms. It's super rare to have a two-bedroom condo with parking, that's fee simple."
The building, Palani Hale, is an older low-rise condo with just three stories. The corner unit, on the "preferred" side of the building, has two bedrooms, one bathroom, 625 square feet of living area and an 80-square-foot lanai.
Although it's closer to Date Street, the apartment is in walking distance to many of the restaurants and shops in the area.
Its first open house is this Sunday from 2 to 5 p.m. Click here for details. Happy house hunting!
Money talk: $295,000 fee simple

[b]Game Mode:[/b]
[b]Specific steps to reproduce the bug; additional details:[/b]
Also, a couple of things to keep in mind...
What IS a bug
A mode or feature that isn't working as intended. This includes issues such as game crashes, data not saving (or being suddenly erased), non-functioning menus, weird behaviour and glitches during gameplay, and the like.
What ISN'T a bug
Anything that's working as intended, but you simply don't like or agree with. This includes player ratings that you disagree with, a feature you don't care for, an outdated face/hairstyle, and so forth. That's all valid feedback, but they aren't bugs, so they don't belong in this thread.

Your Apple ID is the account you use to access all Apple services, including Family Sharing. Everyone in your family needs to join Family Sharing using their own Apple ID. This way your family can share purchases, an Apple Music family plan, iCloud storage, photos, and more without sharing personal information like email, text messages, or passwords. If someone in your family doesn't already have an Apple ID, they can create one. You can also create an Apple ID for your child if they're not old enough to create one on their own.
Confirm the Apple ID you use for purchases
After you set up or join Family Sharing, review the Apple ID you use for iTunes Store, Books Store, and App Store purchases. In most cases, this is the same Apple ID that you use everywhere. But, if you use a different Apple ID for purchases, you can enter it to automatically share purchases with your family using that Apple ID.
After you set up Family Sharing, here's how your account might look. If you check your child's account, you should see their Apple ID instead of your own.
Check your Apple ID in iCloud
On your iPhone, tap Settings > [your name]. If you're using iOS 10.2 or earlier, tap Settings > iCloud.
On your Mac, choose Apple Menu > System Preferences, then click iCloud.
Check your Apple ID in iTunes
On your iPhone, tap Settings > [your name] > iTunes & App Store. If you're using iOS 10.2 or earlier, tap Settings > iTunes & App Store.
On your Mac, open iTunes and click Account > View My Account in the menu bar.
This should match the Apple ID that you use to share purchases in Family Sharing.
Avoid sharing an Apple ID
If you share the same Apple ID with a family member for iTunes & App Store purchases, certain services will treat you as the same person. You may see these and other issues:
- Apple Music family subscription: Instead of receiving your own membership with your own library, you'll share a library and recommendations with the other family member.
- iTunes, Apple Books, and App Store purchases: If Family Sharing is ever stopped, the owner of the shared Apple ID will keep all purchases. You might lose access to everything in the account, including purchases you initiated.
- Apple Podcasts, Apple Books, and iTunes U: Podcast episodes, bookmarks, and iTunes U courses might sync according to the other family member's preferences or be accidentally deleted.
To see which Apple ID your family member is using to share, tap Settings > [your name] > Family Sharing, then tap their name. If you're using iOS 10.2 or earlier, tap Settings > iCloud > Family. Make sure that no one else is using your Apple ID to share content.
Learn more
- Create and manage your child's account.
- See what you can share with your family, and what you can't share. For example, you can share music and more from the iTunes Store, but you can't share songs added to iTunes Match from outside the iTunes Store.
- Get help if you don't see your family's shared content.

Liverpool in the 1960s was a remarkable place to be growing-up – an eclectic mix of ordinary working class family life, home-grown talent, comedy and popular culture, and of course the focal point of Beatlemania. For the young Mike McCartney it was a golden opportunity to perfect his photographic skills.
Mike McCartney's Liverpool Life was an unusual assortment of photographs reflecting Mike's sense of fun, his experimental approach and his distinct role in Liverpool's 1960s renaissance.
From pictures of 'passing muzzos' (or musicians) to intimate portraits from inside the family home, the exhibition reveals Mike's personal and often alternative perspective on the city.
Over the years, Mike McCartney's photographs have earned him much respect and admiration. He has had exhibitions at the Walker Art Gallery and Merseyside Maritime Museum in his hometown of Liverpool, while the National Portrait Gallery bought some of his pictures for its permanent collection. Q magazine featured two of his pictures in a feature called The Greatest Rock 'n' Roll Photographs of All Time.
The self-taught photographer began modestly, using books from Allerton library to get tips and inspiration. He printed his photographs in a home-made darkroom, hanging them out to dry with hairgrips – perhaps as he was working as a ladies' hairdresser at the time!
Later, his extraordinary and diverse career gave him unrivalled access to some of the greatest rock 'n' roll stars who played at venues like the Tower Ballroom in New Brighton and Liverpool's world famous Cavern Club. He captured magical moments from the era, from Little Richard on stage to Graham Nash (the Hollies, Crosby Stills and Nash) snoozing on a train. The Beatles manager Brian Epstein even nicknamed him 'Flash Harry' on account of the flash gun he used for his live pictures.
However, it is Mike's eye for reinventing the familiar that really makes this exhibition shine. A classic example is the picture of the iconic Liver bird, reduced to a slightly-menacing beak peaking out over the edge of the building. Believe it or not, Mike also wrote the TV theme tune to the 'Liver Birds' – another example of his diverse work, which ranges from writing children's books to advisory roles in the heritage sector.
In the sixties Mike McGear (as he was then known) was very much at the centre of the Merseybeat scene as one of The Scaffold. This satirical and humorous act that topped the charts with the unforgettable hits like 'Lily the Pink' and 'Liverpool Lou'. The group, featuring poet Roger McGough and Tiswas' John Gorman, went on to host their own children's TV show, 'Score with the Scaffold'.
Mike also wrote the witty ditty, 'Thank U Very Much' that was later popularised by the Cadbury's Roses advertising campaign. In fact the tune came to him spontaneously when he telephoned his brother Paul to thank him for the Nikon camera he bought as a Christmas present in 1966. It made the top ten for The Scaffold the following year. The camera can be seen in the picture 'Me and 4th camera (with 3 eyes!)'.
There is something very special about the pictures that Mike took at home in Forthlin Road, a property now owned by the National Trust because of its unique history. The exhibition is accompanied by quotes from the photographer, who reveals the stories behind these gems, from his father's great fondness for playing piano at family parties, to numerous pictures of his first car, a Ford Classic. The pride in his new vehicle fails to be outshined even by George Harrison who 'as a working class lad' insisted that Mike take a picture of him with his new Jaguar!
Even the most ordinary photographs in Mike's portfolio have unusual tales behind them. For example, a seemingly normal family picture of Uncle Albert and Auntie Milly is called '2 number 1s' because both of them were mentioned in number one hits. Uncle Albert was immortalised in the Wings song, while Auntie Milly 'ran willy nilly' in The Scaffold's 'Lily the Pink'!
The Forthlin Road pictures were a great primary source of information for the National Trust when they were working on the restoration of the property and Mike played an important role in advising them about its original appearance.
However, his interest in the cultural sector goes beyond his family home. He has also worked on the Board of Management for University of Liverpool's Institute of Popular Music and as a Trustee of the E Chambre Hardman Trust, dedicated to the protecting the legacy of the leading photographer.
Mike also has a close relationship with National Museums Liverpool, supporting many of our events and having been commissioned to take a portfolio of photographs for us in the past.
This exhibition came to the Museum of Liverpool Life after a successful spell in the Museum of Alberta, Canada and before going on to the Smithsonian Institute in Washington.
To mark the occasion Mike personally rewrote the captions to go with the photographs, with amusing anecdotes about the people and places in them who have shaped his remarkable story. In Mike's own words,
"It's the story behind the story, of that magic era".

Electric Tie Between U.S. and Mexico
AEP-Central Power and Light and Commission Federal de Electricidad joined with ABB Power Systems and EPRI to dedicate an electrical tie using High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) technology.
This tie links the transmission system of AEP with the CFE Mexican transmission system, converting the formerly incompatible AC of both countries to DC. As a result, operators can allow the transfer of power between the two countries without interrupting customers.
The project will serve as an "electrical bridge" between Eagle Pass and Piedras Negras, says E. Linn Draper Jr., AEP's chairman, president, and chief executive officer. "We are dedicating a different type of international bridge, and electrical interconnection that will bring two cities and two countries closer together."

Study Shows Potential GFCI Weaknesses
A GFCI circuit breaker field study from the Leviton Institute, Little Neck, N.Y., found a high percentage of ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs) installed in homes, didn't work when tested.
Reviewing data from 13,380 building inspections, the study revealed that on average, 15% of GFCIs were inoperative when tested. In areas where lightning is prevalent, as many as 58.2% of GFCIs were inoperative.
"Voltage surges from lightning, utility switching, and other sources all take their toll on the devices." says Steve Campolo, lead investigator in the study. "That's why Underwriters Laboratories requires that GFCIs be tested monthly."
For more information on the study, call (800) 323-8920.

I have tried to connect an OBDII ELM327 adapter in Mercedes Atego. Somehow I managed to get it in that OBD2 connector. I can see that my adapter is receiving electricity. These are the PID's that I can read with this adapter: OBD PID's. But as I thought these PID's are not working in the Mercedes atego.
Is there anyone that has a list of the codes that are able to give me a live data?
I can see that my obd2 adapter is fetching data as I can see the yellow lights blinking. But no success with the code reading.
I tried several forums and a lot of manufacturers but noone has those codes. Everyone is giving me a link to buy a new OBD2 adapter with their protocol. Maybe I need to change pin's?
But I am a programmer and I am making my own program for reading this live data.
Guys please help as this is urgent.

Chicago Pizza Delivery Out of State
Have an authentic Nancy's Stuffed Deep Dish pizza, the original inventors of the Stuffed Deep Dish Pizza, shipped directly to your front door.
It's time to try a true pizza legend.
The history of Nancy's Pizza dates back to 1971 when Italian immigrants, Nancy and Rocco Palese, opened their first pizza parlor, Guy's Pizza, in Chicago. They were known for their thin crust pizza, but as business fluctuated, Rocco began experimenting. Rather than imitate, Rocco modeled his new pizza creation after a family recipe for 'scarciedda,' an Easter specialty cake made by his mother. The end result was the first stuffed pizza in America, which is now a staple in the pizza industry. The invention and success of the stuffed pizza led to the opening of Rocco's new restaurant in 1974, Nancy's Pizza in Harwood Heights, IL. This was the first of many Nancy's Pizza locations.
DOUGH: WE KNEAD WHAT YOU NEED™ Our in-house Signature dough is all-natural and made fresh using unbleached flour with no preservatives. This hand-worked dough keeps our pizza consistent giving you a perfect pizza every time!

Top Tips for Moving Out of State
Many moves don't just involve driving to a new spot across town. If you have to haul yourself and your belongings across state, you're likely facing a massive move. Below are a handful of moving tips from North Dallas Moving and Storage to help you navigate your out-of-state move.
Choose a licensed mover. Depending on the requirements of your state, most moving companies require an active certificate of motor carrier registration, while the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) regulates interstate movers. Make sure your moving company is licensed by these agencies.
Confirm BBB rating. Check the Better Business Bureau (BBB) website to verify the mover's track record of customer satisfaction and complaint resolution.
Obtain a written quote. Reputable moving companies will provide you with a written proposal and quote detailing the services to be provided, pricing and payment details.
Determine liability coverage and insurance. Verify the mover's liability coverage for damage or loss, and decide whether you wish to purchase additional transit insurance.
Take advantage of free moving resources. Experienced movers understand the concerns and challenges customers face when preparing for relocation, and many offer helpful information. For example, NDMS provides detailed moving tips, including moving guides, questions to qualify a moving company, pre-packing checklists, items to keep in possession during a move, and more.
Review customer feedback. It's always wise to find out what other customers have to say about the moving company. Look for testimonials on the mover's website, check public consumer review sites and see if the mover has earned any awards that reflect client satisfaction.Source: North Dallas Moving and Storage

Latitude: 38.0405837
Longitude: -84.50371640000003
Andromeda, the Ethiopian princess who was the wife of Perseus, the Greek hero. This constellation was first catalogued by Ptolemy, the ancient Greek astronomer who lived in the 2nd century AD. 3 of the stars of Andromeda are located within 10 parsecs (which equals 32.6 light years) of Earth. Andromeda's mother offended the sea nymphs saying she was more beautiful. In order to appease the gods, Andromeda was chained, only to be saved by Perseus.
Antlia is the Greek word for pump. It was given this name by Nicolas Louis de Lacaille. The full name is even Antlia Pneumatica, because the constellation resembles this machine according to de Lacaille. It's a fairly tiny constellation, only ranking 62nd out of 88. Alpha Antliae is the brightest star in the constellation located at about 365 light years away. Antlia was first catalogued in 1763 in Coelum Australe Stelliferum, published after the death of Lacaille.
Boötes or herdsman in English. This constellation has been first mentioned by Ptolemy, the ancient Greek astronomer about 1900 years ago. It is quite a big constellation, ranked 13th with an area of 907 square degrees. In it you'll find you'll find Arcturus, the third brightest star in our skies. Boötes is said to drive (like a herdsman) the oxen of Ursa Major around the North Pole together with his 2 shepards dogs Asterion and Chara, which you can find in the Canes Venatici constellation.
Canis Major, the bigger dog. It is supposed to be a dog following Orion, the hunter from Greek mythology. He is accompanied by a smaller dog, the constellation Canis Minor, which is the neighboring constellation. Canis Major was given its name by Ptolemy, the most famous Greco-Roman astronomer. Within this constellation we can find Sirius, the brightest star in our night sky. You can spot Canis Major in the skies of the southern hemisphere at latitudes between +60 degrees and -90 degrees.
Canis Minor, Latin for smaller dog. Just like his big brother, Canis Major, this constellation represents a dog following Orion. Both constellations were created by the ancient astronomer Ptolemy. Another Greek legend identifies Canis Minor with Maera, the dog of winemaker Icarus who jumped off a cliff after friends killed Icarus by mistake. Canis Minor contains Luyten's Star. This star is one of the nearest stars in the galaxy, from our perspective. It's only 12.2 light years away.
Cassiopeia, queen of Ethiopia. This is one of the many constellations that was named by Ptolemy, the ancient astronomer who lived in the 2nd century AD. Cassiopeia is easy to recognise, as she has a clear W shape in the skies. Cassiopeia was the wife of King Cepheus, who has his own constellation. She was known for being very vain and acclaimed to be more beautiful than the sea nymphs. As a punishment, a whale was sent and the king and queen had to sacrifice their daughter Andromeda, who was rescued by Perseus.
Cepheus was the Ethiopian king who married Cassiopeia. His daughter was Andromeda, who they sacrificed after Cassiopeia had incurred the wrath of the gods with her vanity. Both Cassiopeia and Andromeda are neighboring constellations. Cepheus was named by Ptolemy, the famous ancient astronomer. Within this constellation you will find Garnet Star, which is one of the largest stars known in the Milky Way galaxy. Cepheus is found in the northern hemisphere.
Columba which is Latin for dove. The original name of this constellation is Columba Noachi, after Noah's dove which signalled that the sea level was dropping. It was given this name by Petrus Plancius, the Dutch astronomer from the early 17th century. Columba is the 54th constellation out of the 88 in size. You can find this constellation in the first quadrant of the southern hemisphere between the latitudes +45 degrees and -90 degrees. Gliese 218 is the nearest star in Columba, at a distance of 48.9 light years.
Coma Berenices or Berenice's hair in Latin. This constellation was named after queen Berenice II of Egypt. Ptolemy first mentioned Coma Berenices already in the 2nd century AD, but considered it an asterism (a small cluster of stars) in the constellation Leo. It wasn't until the 16th century when Tycho Brahe, a Danish astronomer, decided to make Coma Berenices a constellation. Berenice II swore to Aphrodite that she would cut of her hair if her husband Ptolemy III Euergetes would come back safe from a dangerous mission.
Crater means 'cup' in Latin and it represents the cup of Apollo, the Greek god. This constellation was named by Ptolemy, the famous Greco-Roman astronomer of the 2nd century AD. The cup was needed for a ritual at the altar, so Apollo sends his raven, the constellation Corvus, out to get it. The raven takes its time and comes up with an excuse blaming a water snake, the constellation Hydra. Apollo sees through the lies and sends all 3 into the sky where they became constellations.
Draco. This is Latin and it means dragon. It was the ancient Greco-Roman astronomer Ptolemy who gave Draco its name in the 2nd century AD. Draco ranks 8th in the list of biggest constellations, occupying 1083 square degrees. This constellation has 9 stars with planets. According to the myth, Draco represents Ladon. This dragon guarded the golden apples in the gardens of Hesperides. This is linked to 1 of the 12 labours of Hercules, which is a neighboring constellation
Gemini or twins in Latin. This is one of the 12 zodiac constellations. Gemini represents the twins Castor and Pullox and was first mentioned by Ptolemy, the ancient Greek astronomer from the 2nd century AD. It was given this name because Gemini has 2 bright stars, called Castor and Pullox as well. With 514 square degrees, Gemini occupies the 30th rank as largest constellation. You can find it in the second quadrant of the northern hemisphere.
Leo, Latin for lion. Leo is one of the 12 zodiac star signs. Like the other zodiac constellations, Leo was first documented by Ptolemy, the Greco-Roman astronomer from the 2nd century AD. With 947 square degrees, Leo is one of the biggest constellations in the northern hemisphere. It is suggested that Leo was already a known constellation in Mesopotamian times, going back as far as 4000 BC. In Greek mythology, Leo was the lion that Heracles killed during his first of twelve labours.
Lepus is the Latin name for hare. This constellation lies under the feet of Orion in the northern hemisphere. This is why Lepus is often depicted as being chased by Orion or his hunting dogs represented in the constellation Canes Venatici. The constellation was first catalogued by the Greco-Roman astronomer Ptolemy, who lived about 1900 years ago. Lepus ranks 51st in the list of largest constellations and covers an area of 290 square degrees in the second quadrant of the northern hemisphere.
Lynx which means lynx in Latin as well. This constellation was created by the Polish astronomer Johannes Hevelius in the 17th century. Although it is a Latin name for an animal, there is no mythological backstory to Lynx. Between Auriga and Ursa Major, there was quite the gap filled with stars, so Hevelius created a constellation out of those stars. With 545 square degrees in the second quadrant of the northern hemisphere, Lynx comes in at place 28 in the list of largest constellations.
Monoceros named after the fantasy animal the unicorn. This constellation was created by the Dutch astronomer Petrus Plancius after gathering information from Dutch navigators in the 17th century. Monoceros is named quite appropriately. It is a Latin name, and the constellation looks like an animal with a horn. You can spot the unicorn star sign in the second quadrant of the northern hemisphere where it covers 482 square degrees. This makes it the 35th largest constellation.
Orion. This is one of the most famous constellations already known in ancient times. Orion is very important in Egyptian religion. It was long thought that the pyramids of Giza were built to reflect the position of the stars inside this constellation. Orion is so well known for such a long time because it is a very bright star sign; it has 2 of the 10 brightest stars in the sky. You can find this constellation in the first quadrant of the northern hemisphere. Orion is said to be a hunter, chasing the hare Lepus.
Perseus is a Greek hero in ancient mythology. This constellation is located next to Andromeda, the Ethiopian princess who he saved from getting killed by a whale. Her parents were sacrificing her to atone for her mother's vanity. Perseus then married Andromeda and they lived happily ever after. You can find Perseus in the first quadrant of the northern hemisphere. It's a large constellation that occupies 615 square degrees. Perseus was first catalogued by Ptolemy.
Pyxis is a compass used on ships. This constellation was created by the French astronomer Nicolas Louis de Lacaille in the 18th century. Originally, Pyxis was part of a huge constellation called Argo Navis. This star sign was created by the Greco-Roman astronomer Ptolemy in the 2nd century AD and represented a mythical ship. De Lacaille thought it better to divide the ship into smaller constellations, using parts of a ship for their names.
Taurus or bull in Latin. Taurus is one of the 12 zodiac constellations used for birth charts. Although Ptolemy, the Greco-Roman astronomer gave Taurus its Latin name in the 2nd century AD, the history of Taurus goes back to the Bronze Age. This makes Taurus one of the oldest constellations we know of. It is also quite big, it occupies 797 square degrees in the first quadrant of the northern hemisphere. There are 16 constellations larger that Taurus.
Triangulum is Latin for triangle. It was the famous Greco-Roman astronomer Ptolemy who gave this constellation its name in the second century AD. The three brightest stars in Triangulum form a triangular shape. The stars of this constellation cover an area of 132 square degrees in the first quadrant of the northern hemisphere. This makes Triangulum the 78th largest star sign. Originally, it was called Deltoton, after the Greek letter Delta, which has a triangular shape.
Ursa Major. This is one of the most well-known constellations. The name means bigger bear in Latin. It is the biggest constellation in the northern hemisphere, and the third largest of all the star signs. Part of Ursa Major is the asterism called Big Dipper. This is one of the clearest recognisable group of stars in the night sky.The bigger bear is so prominently present in the northern hemisphere that is was mentioned in Homer's Iliad and the Bible. Lots of ancient civilizations have legends about this constellation.
Ursa Minor meaning the smaller bear in Latin. It was first mentioned like this by Ptolemy, the Greco-Roman astronomer who lived in the second century AD. Just like the bigger bear, this smaller bear is also a very well known constellation mainly because of its recognisable shape. The cluster of stars called the Little Dipper is one of the most distinguishable shapes in the northern hemisphere. It is also home of Polaris, the northern star. This star marks the true north, making it a very important star for navigation.

General Info:
This thread is all about the 2007 Samsung HLTxx87/89S LED DLPs. Each series comes in 50", 56", and 61" versions. All of these sets are 1080P and appear to have the same cabinet. As of 2 April, the suspected differences are:
Scroll to the bottom of this post for the specs.
Samsung seems to be using the same photo for all six televisions in this line (HLTxx87/89) on their web page. I don't know if they all have the same proportions or what.

Frequently Asked Questions:
(I don't have all the answers yet)
Is the color banding still there in the new HLT's like it was in the 2006 model or is that fixed now?
Will the AUDIO OUT send through signals from HDMI as well as the normal analog sources? (Will it pass 5.1?)
From Morseth: I didn't see any banding in any of the video modes (dynamic, normal, movie). That doesn't mean it isn't there because I haven't done any exhaustive tests, but I have yet to see it with casual viewing.
From Kagaden: I didn't notice any out of the ordinary with VGA, Standard Definition, DVD's, and Component Wii/PS2 on any mode I fiddled with. I don't have a PS3 or Xbox yet but I'm sure the picture quality is worlds better. My initial impression is that this set corrects the problem I've read with last years 5679's.
Is Samsung finally doing 3:2 pulldown correction for 1080i sources to get back the 1080p/24 signal (used to only work for 480i). Does the 120 Hz refresh rate compensate for this?
From Gene S: IIRC, using the sets internal tuners will pass 5.1 sound on the optical out. Using external devices, (STB's, PS3, TivoS3...) the set will only pass 2 channel sound.
Is the contrast up to the level of the wheel versions?
From Studio Dweller: I'm a friend of Eliab's and we picked up two of these sets on Thursday. Eliab told me later that day that the HL-T5089S does indeed accept a 1080p/24 signal.
From llowrey: My understanding is that these are wobulated sets and that wobulation occurs at 120Hz (60Hz x 2). I am wondering if this 120Hz number that's been going around is not the true frame rate but rather the wobulation field rate.
**In other words, we don't know the answer yet.**
Is the pincushioning better/worse than last years models?
What are the foot dimensions?
From Moreseth: My pincusion in 4:3 material is less than 1/8" on each side. It's so small I can barely measure it.
Samsung quotes a 16 microsecond response time. Isn't that slower than most LCDs? Wikipedia says that typical LCD response times (how fast the pixels can change colors) is 8-16 milliseconds. Samsung claims a 16 microsecond response time. There are 1000 microseconds in one millisecond. To compare apples to apples, the typical LCD response time is 500 to 1000 times slower than what Samsung is claiming for these DLP sets. Keep in mind that this does not include the time that it takes to process the signal (input lag). To dumb it down, think of it this way:
From Moreseth: The dimensions of the actual footprint of the 6189S is about 41" wide by 13.5" deep. These are maximum dimensions, since the footprint isn't a perfect square. (Still waiting for 50" & 57" measurements)

2. TV set processes signal and converts it to 1920x1080 pixels to display on screen (input lag). The prettier you want the picture, the longer it will take.
3. Light engine throws picture up on the screen (response time).
Game mode cuts down time in step 2. Obviously if the set had an overall response time of 16 microseconds, we wouldn't need game mode. What it does mean is that the screen itself can keep up with any kind of fast moving action. Here's some more food for thought. Let's take Samsung's quoted 120 Hz refresh rate. You'll get a new screen every 8.33 milliseconds. Analogy: I could have the fastest drumroll in existence, but if I'm only allowed to hit the drum once a second, you're only gonna hear that drum once a second.
Rainbows? I thought LED=no wheel=no rainbows. Can you see them on this set?
Info from the Spec Sheets:
If you are very susceptible to rainbows then you might be able to see them on this set. Some people who can see them on lamp based DLPs report not seeing them on the LEDs. Rainbows are caused by the cycling of colors, either as a color wheel spins through them or as the LEDs cycle through them.Quote:Originally Posted by htwaits
The underlying cause of rainbows is the fact the each basic (red, green, blue, etc,) color is flashed on the screen one at a time to create the exact color that is desired. The advantage in using colored LED lights is that they are faster and there are no gaps between color filters like color wheels have.
Here is a discussion over several posts about LED light engines and rainbows. I'm surprised that someone has already felt that they are seeing rainbows. Be sure to read what collinp has to say on the topic.

Have no ordered an HL-T5087S from an online retailer for significantly less.
Per the 4-page PDF spec sheets on Samsung's site:
HL-Txx87S - no PiP, no Bluetooth and unspecified HDMI versio (probably 1.1 or 1.2)
HL-Txx89S - Single tuner PiP, Bluetooth (wireless headphones?) and HDMI v1.3 w/CEC
As far as I can tell ... that's it. I was actually looking for the 87S, but it doesn't look like it'll be available locally for me where as the 89S is.
The sets look the same and they're both 1080p. What other Samsung sets are that close that have different model numbers? How about other brands? I can't see a new model number just for BT? lol. It would be great if there was some more info out there.
Psklenar, thanks for the quick reply. I dug around and found that info too. Do you think that makes sense though? I question the accuracy on a lot of information provided when comparing similar models on anything. PIP is on just about all sets, it would cost more money to take it out or disable it. Also the PIP doesn't work on digital inputs afaik so that is a moot feature anyway. The BT is great but its a gimmick if the 87 is exactly the same.

From everything I've read, it sounds like pip, bluetooth, and hdmi 1.3 are the only real differences between the 87 and 89. Also, owning an 89 makes you a better person, and God loves you just a little bit more.
Some of the newest consumer HD camcorders -- such as the Sony HC7 -- will acquire content using the new HDMI 1.3 "xvYCC" color space, but that is the only source of material.
Broadcast, cable, satellite, DVD, HD-DVD, and Blu-ray do not take advantage xvYCC, deep color, or any HDMI 1.3 features to improve video quality. There is some talk of adding xvYCC to the Blu-ray specification, but that is probably several years off, at least.
Games are the only probable source of "deep color" content in the next five years.

I too would love any first impressions you guys can provide once you receive your sets. I'm trying to decide between the Samsung LED 6189S, Sony 60XBR2 (probably won't wait for the XBR3), or one of the new slim-line JVC sets. I'm getting my own place within the next couple months, and would like to get the TV once I get all of my other junk moved over. I don't think I'm going to wait until fall or winter for the late-comers.
I'll have one the night I get the tv. There will be loads of pictures for the sources I have. I'm primarily an HTPC user with an old set up though. I haven't upgraded much in several years.
Does anyone have info on the LE or other components compared to other models? I'm more interested in that than the features right now. Someone had compared the 87 to what seems to be another line, which wasn't as good as the 87 and now it looks like they added the 89, which is where I got lost. lol.
I know HDMI is fairly new but has anyone heard of using different versions of anything in the same model year and in the same line? That doesn't make any sense to me.
I'm everywhere.

The place where this information is being collected now is in the 2007 CES thread that is linked at the bottom of my post.
While I understand the eagerness to have an owner's thread, this one is premature. Note: ... but not now. 04/04/2007
I know HDMI is fairly new but has anyone heard of using different versions of anything in the same model year and in the same line?
Samsung announced two levels in their 1080p 2007 models at CES -- lamp and LED. Within those levels they also announced that HDMI 1.3 would be available in two of the four model series.
There is a chance, I don't know how good, that there will be HDMI 1.3 in all the 1080p lines for 2007. If so, it would be consistent with all previous Samsung model years. Unfortunately, it's hard to predict because Samsung is very "flexible" both before, and during a model year.
For further speculation, try the 2007 CES link below.

Its funny that I pulled the trigger on this thanks to the fact that my the bulb in my Samsung HL-P5063W went out last night, and it turns out that its practically back ordered forever! Well, I didn't feel like waiting so I went ahead and visited good old AVSforum and sure enough there was talk that the second gen Samsung LEDS were out.
Thanks for the heads up to whoever mentioned the price at J and R!
PS. The old model will sit until a replacement bulb ever arrives and then its getting sold! No more bulbs!!!
There is mention in the 89 series manual:
xvYCC: Off/On
Setting the xvYCC mode to On increases detail and color space when watching movies from an external device (ie. DVD player)
connected to the HDMI or Component IN jacks. You must set the Picture Mode to Movie to enjoy this feature.
Interpret this as you might like
Two points: the screen displays what ever the light engine projects onto it, and the current 1080p HL-S sets are all 10 bit color displays. Almost all current source material is 8 bit color.
Here is an article about HDMI 1.3 and what it means.
Understanding HDMI Ver 1.3
HDMI 1.3a also supports a format known as Deep Color. You may see this referred to as Extended-gamut YCC (xvYCC). Deep Color is a new color space used in video electronics. It can support 1.8 times as many colors as RGB. RGB, as you may know, creates colors through a mixture of Red, Green, and Blue primary colors. Deep Color defines colors by means of an algorithm that can specify any color in nature.
This improvement in color performance is significant only in specifications.
Current HDTV broadcasts (and the current HDMI standard before 1.3) uses 8-bit color depth.
The new HDMI 1.3a standard with Deep Color capability expands the number of colors viewable on an HDTV from millions to billions, while eliminating color banding and subtle gradations between colors through the use of 10-bit, 12-bit, and 16-bit color depths.
It is vitally important to understand that every movie ever transferred to DVD or any other digital format has been done using 8-bit color depth.
While the new Deep Color format could provide an improvement in picture quality, there currently is no content (no movies, TV shows or archived material) available that can be easily trans-coded into the new system.
With the existing issues of Digital Rights Management (DRM) and High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) just beginning to be worked out it is highly unlikely that Hollywood and the entertainment industry will rush to provide software that is a clone of the original movie quality.
The first place Deep Color is likely to be used is in advanced gaming systems, but even that milestone seems beyond the immediate future.
The added emphasis is mine.

I find it EXTREMELY odd that my box is listed as being 446lbs from the delivery company. I think they shipped me a gorilla instead.
Sony XBR-65A1E, XBR-55A1E, Marantz AV8805, AV7704
Naim SN2, Hi-Cap DR, ND5XS2, Naim Unity Core, Emotiva XPA-9, A-5175
Dynaudio Contour 30, Focus 210C, IC17, S4-W80, Emit 10, 2X JTR S1, SVS SB-2000
Panasonic UBD-820, Bluesound Node 2i, Ansuz Mainz C2 Power Distribution,X Power and speaker cables
To be fair, no one knows if there will be banding problems on this set out of the box. The previous LED model did have this issue, but I'd have figured Samsung would have fixed it for these new models.
At any rate, I also look forward to the first user reports
"While I understand the eagerness to have an owner's thread, this own is premature. "
I do have one bought and paid for. I plan to pick it up and plug it in tomorrow. The race is on... it is in will-call, so maybe I should go pick it up tonight.

This question already has an answer here:
- Who should pay for fixes/bugs? [closed] 7 answers
After developing a website for a client, I've realized that the load time is too extreme, and some changes need to be made. The extreme load times are attributed to the bloated css/js frameworks that I've been using. Much of the code that was included with these frameworks is not even being used and is slowing the site load time. My plan is to get rid of the css framework and just use a bare bones responsive css framework which is only like 1kb in size, and just add only the code needed. So my question is, should I charge the client for back-stepping and fixing this mistake?

Stomach Pain Myths Vs. Facts
Myth: Eating spicy foods causes stomach ulcers.
No one's immune from occasional upset stomachs, and nearly 40% of us will likely struggle with more serious digestive disorders like ulcers and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). The good news is that doctors and scientists are constantly learning new things about the many complex diseases that affect our stomachs. So although tummy aches will continue to plague us, separating myth from fact about these nagging pains will shorten the time it takes to find relief.
Fact: While it's true that certain foods aggravate ulcers, they don't cause them. In up to 95% of cases, a gastrointestinal bacterium called Helicobacter pylori is to blame. One of every two people catch this bug by the time they're 60, though most never know it. (It's thought to be spread through person-to-person contact like kissing or consuming contaminated food or water.) Just 10% of people develop ulcers. Research shows you have a greater likelihood of being plagued by these stomach sores if you regularly take nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). So if you need constant pain relief, consider switching to acetaminophen.
Myth: Lifting something heavy will give you a hernia.
Fact: Less than 10% of inguinal hernias (by far the most common type) are caused by physically strenuous activity. The real culprit: weak abdominal walls that allow parts of your intestines to bulge outward when pressure's exerted on them. Blame genetics or previous surgeries for these weak spots. "Women who've had Cesarean sections, appendectomies, or similar surgeries are at higher risk because their abdominal muscles have been cut," says Richard Desi, M.D., a gastroenterologist at Mercy Medical Center's Institute for Digestive Health and Liver Disease in Baltimore. Chronic coughing, being overweight, and even straining during bowel movements can also lead to tears in the abdominal wall. Without surgery to fix the problem, the weakened area and the intestinal bulge will get bigger over time.
Myth: Cut out beans to relieve gas.
Fact: Beans typically get blamed for causing gas, but the more likely culprit is dairy. Most of us consume a serving or two of cheese, yogurt, or milk a day, while few of us eat beans that often. If you start to feel bloated, crampy, or get diarrhea within 30 minutes to two hours of consuming dairy products, your body may no longer be making enough lactase enzyme to break down milk sugar, called lactose. The older you get, the more lactose-intolerant you may become. Thankfully, you don't have to ditch dairy: Try lactose-free milk or cheese, or take lactase supplements like Lactaid before consuming milk products.
Myth: Fill up on fiber and drink more water to cure constipation.
Fact: A fiber-rich diet—one with at least 20 to 35 grams of fiber a day—keeps you regular. But if you're feeling constipated, an article published in the American Journal of Gastroenterology says that fiber actually worsens symptoms like bloating and stomach pains, while water provides little relief. "Water gets your bowels moving only when you're dehydrated," says C. Gregory Albers, M.D., medical director of diagnostic gastrointestinal services at the University of California, Irvine Medical Center's Comprehensive Digestive Diseases Center. The best course of action is to be sure you are getting plenty of regular exercise.
Myth: Stomach acid is to blame for that burning sensation in your throat.
Fact: Not so, say researchers from the UT Southwestern Medical Center, who recently released a study that suggests gastroesophageal acid reflux disease (GERD) symptoms are actually caused by inflammatory immune cells. It's these rogue cells—not stomach acid—that lead to burning and chest pain.
"This might explain why half of GERD sufferers don't have erosive damage in their esophagus, despite a steady presence of stomach acid," says Dr. Albers. Acid blockers are still the best treatment option available for GERD symptoms.
Myth: Only kids get celiac disease.
Fact: This condition, defined by the inability to tolerate gluten, a protein found in wheat, rye, and barley, is most commonly diagnosed at around age 45. It may be easier to identify in children since they tend to have the more classic signs of celiac disease—chronic diarrhea, abdominal pain, irritability and failure to grow or thrive. Adults with celiac disease, on the other hand, are less likely to have stomach pains, and the symptoms they do experience (including fatigue, canker sores, and joint pain) are easily mistaken for those of other ailments.
Celiac is more common in individuals with type 1 diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, thyroid disease or a family history of celiac. You're also more likely to develop symptoms for the first time after certain life events like surgery, pregnancy, a viral infection, or a period of severe emotional stress. Don't ignore even the mildest of symptoms: Without dietary changes, celiac disease can damage the small intestine and lead to malnutrition, osteoporosis, iron-deficient anemia and even cancer.
Myth: Stress causes IBS.
Fact: If your belly aches, you're bloated and you have bouts of constipation or diarrhea (or alternate between them), you may be among the 20% of Americans who have IBS. Women are twice as likely to suffer from IBS as men. And while this condition can flare up when you're stressed, experts have determined that tension isn't the root cause—they are still unsure about what exactly brings on the illness. That said, relaxation techniques like meditation and yoga may help relieve both stress and IBS symptoms.
Myth: Nuts and foods with seeds can lead to diverticulitis.
Fact: About 10% of Americans over 40 (and more than half of those over 60) develop small pouches called diverticula that bulge outward from the lining of the colon or large intestine. Experts once thought that certain types of food particles—namely, indigestible ones from nuts, corn and seeds—plugged, irritated and inflamed these pouches, leading to severe abdominal cramping and a condition called diverticulitis. But a comprehensive study now suggests that eating nuts and popcorn twice a week actually lowers one's risk of diverticulitis by more than 20%. "If anything, a high-fiber diet featuring foods such as these helps prevent diverticular disease. There's no proven reason to avoid them," says Dr. Desi.
Rest, dietary changes and antibiotics can often treat diverticulitis, but in severe cases surgery may be needed.
Warning Signs
If your stomach pain is accompanied by any of these symptoms, see your doctor.
Vomiting for longer than 24 hours
Throwing up blood
Bloody or black, tarry stools
Tender abdomen
Pain following an abdominal injury
Unexplained weight loss
Difficulty swallowing or feeling like there's food caught in your chest or throat
Persistent chest discomfort
Headache and stiff neck
Signs of dehydration (dry mouth, sunken eyes, infrequent or dark yellow urine)
