Gamma-ray bursts, the explosions of extremely massive stars, are some of the most violent phenomena in the Universe. Early in the morning of April 27, 2013, an exceptionally bright gamma-ray burst (GRB) triggered the automatic detection system aboard the orbiting Fermi Gamma Ray Telescope. The system located the explosion within the constellation Leo. Observations by Fermi, the Swift X-ray observatory, and ground-based visible-light observatories determined the GRB was about 3.6 billion light-years away—relatively close for such an incident.
The event, labeled GRB 130427A, was the most energetic gamma-ray burst yet seen, and also had the longest duration. (The label of a GRB simply indicates its date.) The highest energy photon recorded by Fermi was about three times more energetic than the previous record-holder, a GRB discovered in 2009. The output from GRB 130427A was visible in gamma ray light for nearly half a day, while typical GRBs fade within a matter of minutes or hours. To the best of our knowledge, the supernova producing a GRB beams much of its energy along twin jets; we see a GRB when Earth lies along the path of one of those beams.
Unfortunately, GRB 130427A was never bright enough in visible light to be seen by the unaided eye or small telescopes. However, the event triggered the Catalina Real-Time Transient Survey (CRTS) automatic detection system independently of the Fermi and Swift observatories, which is the first time an independent optical discovery was made of a GRB. This provides hope that some unidentified bursts of visible light could be associated with gamma-ray bursts.
Thanks to its relative proximity, the long duration of the burst, and the large amount of data from different sources, astronomers hope to find the supernova remnant from GRB 130427A within the month. That will provide an unprecedented view of the environment of a GRB, and it will allow large telescopes to study what is left of the system in the explosion's aftermath.

The original instrument for this sample set is a precious historical Portativ with a single stop (4' Gedackt) dating back to the 18th century. Except for the addition of an electrical wind supply (Ventola) it is in original condition and exceptionally well maintained. The instrument is ideally suited to accompany small choirs or instrument ensembles. It is part of a private collection of historical musical instruments located in Braunschweig (Germany).
The portativ has been recorded in Dezember 2015 with high quality microfones using a Jecklin disc in a studio-like room with very little reverb. Each pipe has been recorded with two separate relase layers, one for staccato and one for longer notes. A third release layer does not add anything with the short reverbaration time of the room. Blower and action noise have been recorded separately as well. Due to the very dry recording the set is exceptionally well suited to be used in rooms with strong reverbaration or for adding reverb by post-processing.
The single stop of the Portativ is always on in the sample set, a separate stop switch is not provided. The volume of the blower and action noises can be adjusted with sliders in the graphical user interface.
As a special addition reverb samples have been created from the dry recordings using a very high quality convolution reverb. This gives the user the option to add reverb to the sound. For this purpose a slider has been added to the organ image to set the desired reverb level. Reverb samples have been created for two different virtual rooms, one with about 1.5 seconds reverb and the other with 3-4 seconds. These can be selected using a switch on the organ image, allowing the user to change the accoustic setting easily.
This new feature is unique in the Hauptwerk world and gives users more options to adjust the sound of the Portativ to their taste.
Please note that the licence of this sample set does permit public installations and commercial use!
A small booklet in pdf form is available for download.

A whiff of lollies in the breeze - with a trace of gravy - is the sweet smell of success for a South Auckland factory providing steady jobs and export earnings.
The Nestle Cambria Park factory in Wiri is celebrating 50 years of operations.
A quarter of its output of confectionary and culinary products goes to local shops and the rest earns more than $60 million a year from Australia, Japan and South Pacific islands.
Factory manager Mike Kane said the plant's secret of survival when other companies were moving production overseas was its 320 staff and annual investment in machinery.
Mr Kane said Cambria Park was special for its staff-led improvement projects aimed at keeping the plant competitive in quality, efficiency and cost compared with Nestle operations in other countries.
Visiting executives from the Nestle headquarters in Switzerland were impressed at workers' will to adapt at a plant considered in the business as "complex" because of its diverse output - 360 different products, each with 30 different ingredients.
Nestle New Zealand corporate services manager Maurice Gunnell said the Cambria Park factory was established in 1962 with 50 staff to produce Nescafe instant coffee for a nation of tea drinkers.
Production of that - and Milo - was later moved to Australia, but the Cambria Park site had grown because of "swings and roundabouts" in the need for plants to have economies of scale. It had specialised in culinary and confectionary products since the early 1990s.
"New Zealand is the furthermost country away from head office but we try to present our own Kiwi way of doing things," he said.
"We are a successful business, but the market is as competitive as ever and we are seeking to improve."
Machine operator Heather Smith said that in a supermarket, she cannot help casting a critical eye over the shelves of soup and gravy packets.
"I'm looking to see whether the lips of the foil are properly folded. on the packets. My husband says 'stop it, leave it' but I can't help it."
She has worked at the factory for 34 years, in two stints - starting as a 20-year-old and returning to work on the twilight shift when her daughter started school.
Her line of three operators has two lanes and packages 160 sachets of Maggi culinary products a minute, which is double what it was.
"It's all done by the machine, which is lovely," said Mrs Smith, who nevertheless has to check the machine's work, information on the packet and take samples for the test kitchen.
Salome Moala'eua is a machine operator in the confectionery section, packing scorched almonds, mints, toffees and lollipops.
In her 26 years at the plant, she has raised four children and coped with changes in the plant's production. She was on Milo production when it was switched to Australia in the 1990s and changed from the Maggi line in 2003 when the Heard's Waiuku factory closed and its production was absorbed at Wiri.
"It's been great change and I've enjoyed working here. It's more multicultural and we respect each other's culture and work like a team."
Change from manually operated machinery to high-tech automation is as dramatic as what has happened with the job market in South Auckland since Ernie Rowe started his warehouse job 42 years ago.
A highlight was the company taking 100 members of its "Quarter Century Club" to dinner every year.
A half century of food

Jeff Raikes, CEO of Bill Gates' foundation, is retiring.
Raikes is someone who was once considered a potential Microsoft CEO. With him out of Gates' foundation, people will speculate that he's going to take over for Steve Ballmer who is retiring from Microsoft.
Todd Bishop at GeekWire shoots down that theory, saying: "based on what I'm hearing from multiple sources this morning, Raikes' retirement is not a sign that he is going to back to Microsoft."
Here, via GeekWire, is the full announcement of Raikes retirement:
Jeff Raikes to Retire as CEO of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation
Seattle, September 10, 2013 – Jeff Raikes, CEO of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, today announced his decision to step down from his position in an email and subsequent meeting with employees, accompanied by Bill and Melinda Gates, co-chairs of the foundation.
In his email, he wrote:
When Bill and Melinda approached me about this job in May 2008, we discussed a five-year commitment. I am proud of the work we've all done together in the past five years. We are having an impact on people's lives every single day, and we are set up to keep on having an even bigger impact in the years to come.
Now, I'm looking forward to doing some things I haven't had time for, including my work at the Raikes Foundation, which is tackling youth and education issues. I have learned so much from Bill, Melinda, our grantees and partners, and all of you about catalytic philanthropy and specific issues like agriculture and education. I have also learned from—and been deeply moved by—the people I've met in the field, whether they're Ethiopian farmers trying to grow enough food to feed their children or a teacher in New Orleans helping students make a better future. These lessons will not only inspire me but also serve me day-to-day, because I will continue to invest my time and energy in these areas.
It has been a privilege to get to do this urgent, important work with you, and it has also been a lot of fun. I'm focused on making sure that the transition to your next leader is as seamless as possible, so that you can continue doing this work with the intellect and passion you bring to it every day.
"The foundation is in the best shape that it's ever been in thanks to Jeff. He has successfully managed the organization through a period of significant growth, built a phenomenal leadership team, and set us on a great path programmatically. Thanks to Jeff we are at the place now where we will be able to have the impact we want," said Bill Gates following the announcement.
"Jeff has been a wonderful collaborator. He kept us looking ahead and positioned the foundation, and Bill and me, for long-term success. He always stressed the importance of partnership and continuous learning, which has been invaluable to improving the work we do," said Melinda Gates.
"Jeff took exactly the right approach to managing the foundation. He encouraged bold thinking and risk taking, and encouraged people to learn not just from what worked, but also what didn't. It's what I expected from him and he delivered," said Warren Buffett, trustee of the foundation.
Raikes will remain in his position until a successor is named.

Several People Charged Following Underage Drinking Party in Sioux Falls
Several people were charged after what Sioux Falls police say was an underage drinking party Friday night.
Information Officer Sam Clemens says police were initially called around 11pm Friday for a bonfire in the backyard in the 1800 block of North Van Eps Avenue, but they found 25 people.
Most of the people ran when police arrived, but Clemens says a few were caught:
Clemens says the 17-year-old Humboldt girl who was driving the car was charged with underage consumption, fleeing police, hit-and-run, curfew violation and marijuana and paraphernalia possession. A 16-year-old passenger was cited for underage consumption, fleeing police and a curfew violation.
The resident of the home, 59-year-old Sandra Lee Gayken, was charged with maintaining a common nuisance, five counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor and possession of marijuana and paraphernalia, and two girls, 13 and 17 years of age, were charged with underage consumption.

Film star Samantha Bond was among a batch of celebrities who tried to whisk their way through the Great British Bake Off tent as the series returns for a special Sport Relief competition.
The St Margarets resident, famed for her roles as James Bond's Miss Moneypenny and more recently in Downton Abbey, appeared in the first episode on Monday, January 13.
Judged by cookery writer Mary Berry and acclaimed baker Paul Hollywood, Bond took part in the baking battle against cricketer Michael Vaughan, DJ Jonny Vaughan and actress Bonnie Wright, who plays Ginny Weasley in Harry Potter.
The foursome were challenged to make sandwich biscuits and tarte tatin but Bond fell at the final curdle when her sport-themed showstopper, an ambitious Putney Bridge, was trumped by Wright's triple layered sailing regatta.
The series, which aims to cook up cash for charity, features a further 12 celebrities who tried to rise to the occasion and win the coveted title of Sport Relief Star Baker.
The series also followed Olympic gold medal winner Nicola Adams as she visited Comic Relief-funded projects in South Africa to show how money raised could help change lives.
It is hoped the show will inspire the nation to join Sport Relief and host their own bake sales to raise money for those living incredibly tough lives in the UK and across the world.

GAINESVILLE, Fla., Feb. 11 (UPI) -- Shark attacks in the United States in 2012 were the highest since 2000, while worldwide fatalities stayed near average levels, researchers in Florida said.
There were 53 U.S. shark attacks last year, the University of Florida's International Shark Attack File report released Monday said.
Eighty unprovoked attacks occurred worldwide, slightly more than 2011, the report said.
The most shark bites, 42, occurred in North American waters. (The 53 U.S. incidents include Hawaii and Puerto Rico, not considered as occurring in North American waters as defined by the International Shark Attack File database.)
Florida led the country with 26, followed by Hawaii (10), California (5), South Carolina (5), North Carolina (2), and one each in Georgia, Massachusetts, New York, Oregon and Puerto Rico, the report said.
Four attacks were recorded in South Africa, three of which resulted in death, while Australia had an average year with 14 attacks and two fatalities, the researchers said.
"The numbers from an international standpoint were on target for the last couple of years because, in theory, each year we should have more attacks than the previous year owing to the rise of human population from year to year," said George Burgess, director of the shark file housed at the Florida Museum of Natural History on the University of Florida campus.
"Thus the shark attack rate is not increasing even though the number of shark attacks is rising. Shark attack as a phenomenon is extremely uncommon, considering the millions of hours humans spend in the water each year."

The not-so-great communicator
Barack Obama's light Christmas reading back in 2010 was Lou Cannon's biography of Ronald Reagan — 920 pages on the political storyteller Obama admired most, to the profound annoyance of his Maddow-loving base.
Obama's aides can't quite remember whether the boss ever finished it. Even if he did, no one would ever mistake Obama — an electrifying speaker with the rare capacity, at times, to spin emotion and intellect into rhetorical gold — for the Great Communicator.
Story Continued Below
Harsh circumstance, relentless conservative opposition and, above all, the inconsistency of his own messaging operation have made it difficult for a supremely articulate communicator to articulate the narrative of his own presidency. That leaves Obama's high likability rating — hardly his central selling point in 2008 — as his campaign's main bulwark against Mitt Romney and the super PAC onslaught.

Obama gets a message-reset moment on Thursday night when he delivers the convention's culminating speech, a high-stakes address in which he's expected to lay out a more specific — yet probably not too specific — vision of what he'd do with four more years.
"I don't think he's really made the case for getting the credit he deserves. It's like he hits one thing and moves on. … Win and move on. That's his pattern," said Andy Ford, president of the Florida Education Association, sitting on the convention floor Wednesday afternoon as his former governor, Charlie Crist, was testing the Teleprompters.
"He's got to do that this week. He's really got to tell people what he did and why."
A half-dozen other delegates scattered on the floor waiting for the action to begin echoed that sentiment.
"Just tell the story already," advised Brayden Portillo, an LGBT activist from Broomfield County, Colo., who organized college students for Obama in 2008.
( Also on POLITICO: Pundits swoon over Clinton's speech)
Craig Shirley, a veteran conservative operative and Reagan biographer, is impressed by Obama's talent but stumped by his failure to establish a coherent rationale for reelection — or even a cohesive political identity beyond the change agent of 2008.
"He is a terrific public speaker. It's not his skills that are the problem. It's what he has to say that hasn't resonated," Shirley said. "Quite frankly, I don't think he's well served by his speechwriters. … He has the presence that Reagan had, no doubt about it, but I'm not sure he understands the bully pulpit well enough. I think the 2004 speech [at the Democratic National Convention in Boston] was extraordinary. He had me.
"Since then, I just don't know what happened."
What happened was the world fell apart and had to be put back together, Obama's advisers say. The first six to 10 months of his presidency were a terrifying fire drill, a frantic drive to re-animate a dying economy that left little time for salesmanship or even explanation of the mammoth stimulus that acted as a big, ugly national parachute.

"Sue us. We were trying to save the country," a senior Obama aide said over the summer.
That might be true, but somewhere along the way Obama suffered a communication breakdown.
He has lurched from message to message, blurring voters' vision of the messenger. He's ensnared in a tangle of middling slogans — "Winning the Future" for the 2011 State of the Union, "Forward" for the 2012 campaign — and has channeled a succession of presidents from Lincoln to Reagan, culminating with Teddy Roosevelt late last year during an attempt to encapsulate his complicated legacy under TR's banner of "fairness."

Saguaros clinch spot in AFL championship
For much of the fall, Surprise has led the West Division of the Arizona Fall League. Though the AFL is more about player development than wins and losses, the Saguaros made it clear they were playing to win.View Full Game Coverage
For much of the fall, Surprise has led the West Division of the Arizona Fall League. Though the AFL is more about player development than wins and losses, the Saguaros made it clear they were playing to win.View Full Game Coverage
On Monday, they accomplished the first half of their goal. Surprise defeated Scottsdale, 8-2, at Scottsdale Stadium. That victory, combined with Glendale's loss to Salt River on Monday afternoon, clinched the West Division for Surprise and the spot in Saturday's Arizona Fall League championship game that comes with it.
Third baseman Garin Cecchini said it was "awesome" to win the division.
"You always want to play in the playoffs," Cecchini said. "We have a great group of guys. It's one of the best teams I've ever played with."
Cecchini, ranked No. 82 on MLB.com's Top 100 prospect list, went 3-for-3 with two walks and an RBI Monday.
Cecchini said he has been working on an adjustment to his swing for a few weeks. Instead of sometimes cutting his swing off early, he wants to finish his swing with his back leg consistently driving through the baseball.
The Red Sox worked with Cecchini on a similar adjustment earlier in the season, but he had fallen back into a bad habit before the Saguaros coaching staff pointed out the flaw. Cecchini said he thinks he is now seeing the success from adjustment.
"When you make an adjustment, it's probably going to get worse before you get better, because it's something different," the Red Sox's No. 7 prospect said. "I'm glad they were able to point that out to me a couple weeks ago. That's what they're here for: to make you a consistent big league player."
The Saguaros took the lead Monday with two outs in the third inning. Cecchini drew a walk to load the bases and bring right fielder Mitch Haniger to the plate. Haniger drove a grand slam to left field off right-hander Hansel Robles. It was Haniger's second grand slam and fourth home run of the fall.
Cecchini said because the dimensions in Scottsdale are so large, he didn't think Haniger had hit it out.
"I was just trying to run as fast as I can," Cecchini said. "When I saw it clear the fence, I thought, 'Wow, he put a really good swing on it.'"
Haniger, the Brewers' No. 12 prospect, finished the game 1-for-4 with a walk. Center fielder Tyler Naquin, the Indians' No. 5 prospect prospect, went 3-for-4 with a triple and two runs.
The Saguaros added two runs in the fourth and a pair of insurance runs late in the game, but their pitching staff made sure they already had all the offense they needed. Left-hander Will Lamb allowed two runs on three hits in four innings. Four relievers combined for five scoreless innings to finish the game.
The Scorpions were held to five hits. Center fielder Mason Williams, the Yankees' No. 2 prospect, went 1-for-3 with a double and two walks.
The Saguaros last went to the championship game in 2011 and haven't won the league since 1995, when the championship was a best-of-three series. They now must wait to find out who they will play. With three games to play, Mesa leads Salt River by a half-game in the East Division.
Though the Saguaros are happy to know they will be playing in the championship game Saturday at Scottsdale, Cecchini said they are holding off on any celebration for now.
"Hopefully if we keep playing the way we're playing, we'll have a good celebration Saturday," Cecchini said.

Filmmaker Sent To Google Jail For Building THE NEW MODEL/
Today's guest post is from Diary Of A Bad Lad producer, Jon Williams. This news was pretty shocking to me. It is sure to evolve as the year goes on, but Dylan Martin's ordeal should concern anyone that is striving to produce a Truly Free Film model. BE SURE TO CLICK IN TO DYLAN's ARTICLE. What Jon describes as Dylan's Kafka-esque nightmare with Google is nothing short of a grand tragedy of a hero learning how it can all work and being profoundly penalized for the knowledge. This is sure to get a lot of people buzzing.
I want to draw your attention to a recent article, "Adsense, no sense at all -
what it's like being sacked by a computer..." by Dylan Martin (http://www.duckworksmagazine.com/11/columns/guest/winter/index.htm).
I think it's particularly relevant when it comes to 'new distribution models' (NDMs).
Over the past couple of years or so there's been a whole slew of books published, and seminars organised, promoting internet-based film marketing and distribution models. Often the author is someone who makes a living as an internet marketing consultant, or someone who made a DIY-distributed documentary with a clear niche-market target who's found that writing internet marketing manuals and doing speaking engagements is a much better and more reliable way of making a living. But little of this is of any use to indie feature filmmakers.
Often the disconnection results in bafflement. How can you, as the advice goes, build an audience for a film which you haven't even got into development? If it's a feature you can't, unless you happen to be an established auteur, that is.
"Give us a concrete example - just one – of a feature filmmaker who's making this work", but the replies point at best to a niche documentary, and mostly they're taken from the music business. And nobody talks about the actual bottom line.
This is where Dylan's article comes in. His whole business is internet-based. He makes little films about things for which large audiences already exist – big trucks for example. You'd hardly call them 'documentaries', but more the equivalent of coffee table books, or calendars, about popular breeds of dogs, cute cats, sports cars, fishing, that sort of thing. And Dylan's pretty good at it. In fact so good that he's the 97th most popular content provider on youtube, getting 1.5million hits per month. Not surprisingly he has a web-site devoted to all things nautical with plenty of subscribers as well.
Dylan enjoys the sort of internet success that us feature producers can only dream of. What's more he's been generous enough in his article to publish details of all his bottom lines. And what they show is that one person with a camera can, if they work pretty hard at it, make an average living from producing material which does not involve either cast, or crew, or even a personal assistant.
Oh yes, it also demonstrates that this level of success also alerts Google to your existence and you find yourself in a Kafka-esque nightmare with your account frozen, royalties and fees confiscated, whilst Google continues to pocket all of the revenue from the ads with which they surround your 1.5million per month hit generating content.
Dylan deserves our gratitude for being so generously informative, and our support in his attempts at getting justice.
I hope you are well, Ted, and I wish you all the best for the New Year.

FORT WORTH, Texas - Authorities on Wednesday charged a Fort Hood sergeant with paying for sex with a soldier in a prostitution scheme allegedly arranged by a low-level coordinator of the Texas Army post's sexual assault prevention program.
The scandal and others in the U.S. armed forces have triggered outrage from local commanders to Capitol Hill and the Oval Office, and prompted a rush of proposed legislation to deal with the epidemic of sexual assaults in the military branches. One recent scandal involved an Air Force officer who headed a sexual assault prevention office until he was arrested on charges of groping a woman in a parking lot.
In Texas, Master Sgt. Brad Grimes was charged in military court Wednesday with patronizing a prostitute, conspiring with another soldier to patronize a prostitute, committing adultery and solicitation to commit adultery, according to Fort Hood officials. The woman soldier allegedly involved in the prostitution has not been charged.
The charges stem from an investigation into a battalion-level coordinator of Fort Hood's sexual assault and harassment prevention program, post spokesman Chris Haug said.
In May, the Army said a sergeant first class was being investigated on allegations of sexual assault and possibly arranging for at least one woman to have sex for money. The Army said he was one of the coordinators of the program at Fort Hood, about 125 miles southwest of Fort Worth.
Army officials declined to comment about the case Wednesday or release his name, referring questions to Fort Hood.
Two officials, who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly about the case, identified that soldier as Sgt. 1st Class Gregory McQueen. U.S. officials have said he is being investigated in connection with activities involving three women, including sexually assaulting one woman. The allegations involving the third woman were not known. A defense official in Washington said it was not yet clear if one of the women was forced into prostitution or participated willingly.
McQueen has been suspended from all duties but had not been charged as of Wednesday.
Grimes, an 18-year Army veteran, does not work in Fort Hood's sexual assault prevention program, Haug said. A court date for Grimes has not been set.
Congress has been weighing legislative proposals, but on Wednesday a committee rejected a bill that would have overhauled the military justice system by removing commanders from the process of deciding whether sexual misconduct cases and other serious crimes go to trial. Instead, the Senate Armed Services Committee sided with the Pentagon's top brass in approving legislation to keep commanders involved in deciding whether to prosecute sexual assault cases.
The House is scheduled to vote soon on its version of a defense policy bill that includes a number of sexual assault prevention provisions.
The Pentagon estimated in a recent report that as many as 26,000 military members may have been sexually assaulted last year, up from an estimated 19,000 assaults in 2011, based on an anonymous survey of military personnel.

SANTA BARBARA, Calif. – In a doubleheader highlighted by late game theatrics, UC Santa Barbara split a pair of high scoring decisions with Hawai'i at Campus Diamond.
UCSB is now 29-18 overall and stands at 9-5 in conference play, trailing first-place Long Beach State by three games. Hawai'i meanwhile moves to 20-23 and 5-9 in the Big West.
Emily Brucelas led the Gauchos with five hits on the day, including the game-saving home run to force extras in the series opener. MeShalon Moore came up with arguably the biggest shot of the day with the walk off two-run homer to clinch the 9-8 game one win for UCSB.
As the teams competed for a total of 17 innings, Shelby Wisdom led both clubs with 14 innings pitched. The junior picked up her 17th win of the season in the first game as she recorded three strikeouts. She has now matched her wins total from a season ago with seven more games left in the regular season.
The first game featured both teams trading runs until the Rainbow Wahine jumped ahead 8-6 after a two-run sixth inning.
After displays of late game heroics by two underclassmen, UCSB needed similar performances to compete in game two. Facing the two-run deficit, the Gauchos had one out as Lauren Boser drew a walk in the bottom of the seventh. During the following at bat, Brucelas came through with her fifth homer of the year to force the game into extra innings.
Hawai'i put the pressure on with a lead off homer to start the eighth inning, but Wisdom denied the Rainbow Wahine another base as she retired the next three batters. The pitcher batted second in the bottom of the inning and reached first as the game-tying run off a single hit through the right side. That set the stage for MeShalon Moore who picked the ideal moment for her first home run of the season, as her two-run shot sealed the hard fought victory for UCSB.
The Gauchos entered the bottom of the seventh down 8-2, Stacy Cavazos led off with a single after slyly placing a bunt down the third baseline. After a groundout and a pass ball, she found herself at third as Arianna Palomares took the batter's box. The sophomore ignited the rally with a single blasted up the middle.
In a pinch hitting scenario, Samantha Stark made her first appearance of the game and came through with a single that mirrored Palomares's to keep the inning alive. The Gauchos would continue on to score thanks to a pair of singles, a walk, and a sacrifice fly. Brucelas showed a flair for game-tying hits today, as she again came up with the play to force extra innings. This time, she bolted a two-RBI single down the left field line to tie the game at 8.
The Rainbow Wahine, though, spoiled the comeback as Leisha Li'ili'i delivered the game winning solo shot in the ninth inning.
UCSB will take on Hawai'i in the series rubber game tomorrow at Campus Diamond starting at 12 p.m. Tickets are available at the main entrance or online here.

Darrell Cox's Neon Becomes The First Domestic FWD Car In The Nines
For most of us, drag racing is a sport of unlimited excess. The stock engine displaces 426 inches? Make that 528 or 600 or 815 if you're racing IHRA Pro Stocks. It burns gasoline? How about nitrous or nitro or, if you really want to live on the edge, a cocktail using a little hydrazine? For Darrell Cox, a former Pro Stock motorcycle mechanic, the move up was just as great, though a little different from what the rest of us might do. Darrell decided what's often referred to as import racing was the wave of the future and began molding his efforts in that direction.
"American heritage versus Japanese competition" was how Darrell described what he wanted to do. The heritage was Chrysler and the vehicle chosen to push back the onslaught of infidels was the Neon. The front-wheel-drive aftermarket grew up with urban roots and the cars were castaway Hondas, Acuras, and their ilk. In the last decade, large strides had been made in getting these cars to really thunder, and although they may look silly with their fat front tires and funky sound systems, the right combination can clean your clock, even you Hemi guys' (at least the stock ones). After checking out what was needed to reclaim the title of king, a '98 Neon was selected to show that good ol' American ingenuity wasn't dead.
Starting with the chassis, the car still resembles what came off the Belvedere assembly line, but now sports a 12-point cage and long traction bars out back to keep the front wheels planted to the pavement. The slicks are up front, 24.5×9.5 M&H low-profile stickies on 13×8 Bogart wheels, while a set of incredibly narrow 15×3 Bogarts out back support 22x4x15 tires. Under acceleration, the traction outfit in the back functions opposite from those found in a rear-wheel-drive drag car; weight transfer is applied to the front of the car to plant those tires and prevent wheelhop.
PhatRidz, formerly known as Speed Needs, supplied much of the body and chassis equipment, including the interior, while Gary Howell's AFX Manufacturing supplied the hood. Afco coilover shocks are under the rear, while the front struts were custom-fabricated for this project. The Neon is built like a rail, with lightened brakes, aluminum suspension parts, a parachute, and more. Gearhart's Body Shop handled the current paint on the car, using DuPont Teal Green as the primary color, accented by lettering and graphics applied by Sign Shop Motorsports. With driver Mike Crawford in the hot seat, the car crosses the scales at only 2,000 pounds.
Under the bonnet, Darrell tried several combinations, but the most recent is the most radical. The factory mill has been replaced by a 16-valve 2.4L engine from a Caravan. This 148-inch beast is far from stock, however. Darrell decked it .030, O-ringed it, then used ARP studs to keep the head on straight. The crank was massaged and micropolished, tipping the scale at only 29 pounds. JE 10.5:1 pistons, Crower rods, and Hastings rings send this puppy up to a screaming 9,600 rpm. But wait, there's more!
Putting the fuel into the cylinders is a set of custom-ground Crane cams and a Dodge aluminum head that has been decked .040 and carefully ported and polished. Then it starts really getting trick. With help from PhatRidz, Darrell's car hosts a high-rpm Turbonetics T3/T4 turbo, custom-routed through special ducting, and a sheetmetal intake. An 80mm Holley throttle body feeds fuel into this and a set of custom headers sends the exhaust through the turbo vanes and into the atmosphere. A Speed Pro (now known as F.A.S.T. for Fuel And Spark Technology, a division of Comp Cams) ECU ignition outfit is used to map fuel curves, boost engine speed, and perform other functions via computer, with the fire chores handled by Crane wires and ignition box coupled to NGK plugs. On the dyno, the little beast made 700 hp, which equates to more than 4 horses per cubic inch. At a mere 20 pounds of boost, the Neon kicked out 480 horses at the tires. The maximum boost is more than 30 pounds.
Obviously, Mike Crawford is busy in the cockpit steering as the front wheels accelerate the car downtrack. Forward Motion custom-built a Dodge three-speed automatic for the car, the only such machine racing at this level without a manual gearbox. Frank Lupo at Dynamic came up with a converter that will live in the environment, Turbo Action fabricated a reverse valvebody, and to keep Mike alive in the event of a catastrophe, a ¼-inch steel shield was built around the entire outfit. The final gear reduction is a 3.42 ratio going to the axles, custom-built by The Driveshaft Shop.
This was uncharted territory for everyone involved and Darrell has more than enough to keep his hands full at the track. To that end, crew help comes from Jay Christley, Jason Hensley, and Jeff Biggs, plus Jae Carter and Jim Kelley, who together with Darrell are the owners of PhatRidz. Mike DeMoss at Forward Motion helped with some of the mad science, as did Gary Howell and AFX Manufacturing, while D&D Installation and Maintenance provided the 24-foot trailer.
Have the mad scientists achieved their goals? At what's considered the toughest event on the East Coast, NIRA's race at Englishtown, New Jersey, last May, the PhatRidz/Forward Motion/AFX entry was the only domestic machine to make the tough 16-car Pro program, despite the best efforts by the factory Ford Focus group. This was also the debut appearance of the car since it was rebuilt last winter, and Mike qualified at a blistering 10.18. But they were far from finished. NHRA's Summit Import Racing event (also at E-town) came up in June, where Mike drove the car into the FWD twilight zone, banking an unreal 9.78 at 144 mph to qualify second overall in the Pro 4 Division. Moreover, Darrell is still sciencing out some of the car's systems. The first in the nines is a credible honor, but like all racers, it's good only once. With the 2001 season in full swing, this is one to watch; there's no turning back or sideways; these guys are going in one direction-fast forward.

Fundraising for Social Change, 7th Edition
Kim Klein | May 2016 | US $60.00
This bestselling book is one of the most widely used in the field by nonprofit organizations across the country. A soup to nuts description of how to build, maintain and expand an individual donor program, this book is often called "the Bible of grassroots fundraising".
Praise for the Seventh Edition of Fundraising for Social Change
"People love Kim's fundraising wisdom and her keen ability to connect fund development with what matters in our communities. I always recommend Fundraising for Social Change to organizations in need of a book with ideas they can use right away as well as information about how to build a successful long-term fundraising program." —Steve Lew, senior projects director, CompassPoint Nonprofit Services
"I used Fundraising for Social Change as a textbook for my class for many years and often recommend it to grassroots organizations as a primer for developing a fundraising strategy. Kim's years of experience and her own broad knowledge of the field give the book heft and credibility. Her pragmatism and sense of humor make it readable and engaging." —Maria Mottola, executive director, New York Foundation
"The information and inspiration we have received from Kim Klein's books have been key to our grassroots fundraising efforts. Some people go back to Proust; I go back to her specifics about how to write a fundraising plan that actually works!" —Bob Fulkerson, state director, Progressive Leadership Alliance of Nevada (PLAN)
"Kim makes me a believer again whenever I am in her presence — be it through her spoken or written word. While she provides the basics of raising money in an accessible form, what I truly value is the deep sense of purpose she reawakens in me as a fundraiser-activist." —Miguel Gavaldón, fundraising coach and trainer, Grassroots Institute for Fundraising Training
"Whatever role I am in, I turn to Fundraising for Social Change. Working with Kim to present Fundraising for Social Change workshops in communities changes lives — both professional and personal — including mine. She offers hands-on experience and extraordinary human values to the nonprofit sector, as well as skilled expertise in teaching others how to make fundraising fun and meaningful to our whole life." —Jaune Evans, development chair, Yerba Buena Center for the Arts

Why would you buy a watch that you can't tell the time easily on?
Good question. If you're looking for a watch that simply tells the time, then our watches are probably not for you. We design wearable art, many people don't appreciate art but many people do.
If your sole reason for buying a watch is to tell the time, we would recommend purchasing another watch brand that does just that. If you have a cell phone, computer, PDA or wall clock, the chances are you don't even need to wear a watch, so why purchase a Tokyoflash watch?
If you are in some sort of design business, be it product design, graphic design or homepage design, you probably have a flair for design. Our watches are what we like to call "Unique Product Design", where design is the main point, not function. After all if it looks good you want to buy it.
An exotic car is by no means practical but most people would love to have one. A painting that just strikes you in a certain way or a piece of jewelry - these all pretty much serve no function, well maybe the car does, but you could have bought a practical one.
So, when thinking about our unique time telling designs try to look at them as if each is a piece of art that also tells you the time. We turn TIME into ART.
Who are our customers? We have been praised by designers from Apple, Puma, Google and many many more. People in the design and computer field tend to be big fans, often requesting wackier and wackier designs, while others request more practical to read designs. Some of our designs are very easy to read the time on offering the best of both worlds, but it is often hard to design one style without compromising on the other.
Before the cell phone watches were common but nowadays many people feel there's no need to wear one and the watch industry has suffered greatly. Our aim is to "CHANGE THE WAY YOU THINK ABOUT TIME."
Enjoy and have fun - that's what life is all about.
Faithfully yours,
The Tokyoflash Team

U.N.: Blacks in U.S. bear disproportionate burden of HIV
The United States is lagging in the global battle against HIV and AIDS, a new U.N. report says, with inadequate treatment and a drop-off in awareness among the reasons the U.S. carries a disproportionate share of HIV and AIDS cases among wealthy nations.
The report also found that African-Americans are far more likely than other ethnic and racial groups in the United States to be infected with HIV and 10 times more likely than whites to die from AIDS.
The report says that while African-Americans made up 13.2 percent of the U.S. populations last year, they accounted for an estimated 46 percent of people living with HIV in the country and half of AIDS-related deaths.
According to the report, in 2010 African-Americans "had the highest rate of AIDS-related deaths, at 11.6 deaths per 100,000 people, compared to 2.8 deaths per 100,000 Latinos and 1.1 deaths per 100,000 whites."
The report by UNAIDS, the agency that monitors HIV and AIDS throughout the world, said the United States accounted last year for 54 percent of the estimated 88,000 new HIV infections in Western and Central Europe and North America, and 69 percent of the 27,000 AIDS-related deaths in those areas.
The five largest European countries _ France, Germany, Great Britain, Italy and Spain, with a total population roughly similar to the United States _ together accounted for 28 percent of the new HIV infections, according to the report.
The report blames the high death rate in the United States on "late diagnosis of HIV, poor treatment adherence and high levels of early treatment discontinuation." For comparison, Canada, the United Kingdom and Germany each accounted for 2 percent of the 27,000 deaths.
The report includes the U.S. among the 15 countries worldwide that account for more than 75 percent of the 2.1 million new HIV infections that occurred last year. Others include Nigeria, South Africa, China, India, Indonesia, Kenya, Mozambique, Uganda and Tanzania.
Luiz Loures, UNAIDS's deputy executive director, told McClatchy he's concerned that in the U.S. and in rich Western European countries, "primarily young gay men (and men who have sex with men) are more complacent about the AIDS epidemic. They have a false impression that AIDS is over."
He said the gay community was the first to mobilize the world against AIDS., but added, "I think the gay community today is more concerned about gay marriage than prevention of AIDS. They need a wake-up call."
In the U.S, and in Western Europe, he said, "we see a tendency of increasing infections among gay men."
UNAIDS Executive Director Michel Sidibe said that while tremendous progress had been made in the global fight against AIDS, "19 million of the 35 million people living with HIV globally don't even know they have the virus."
"Whether you live or die should not depend on access to an HIV test," he said.

as far as Baldwins book though , I am unsure of how far to trust it. ..... I know of at least one Loetz piece he attributes to Moser in that book.
the company claims all moser is marked. end of story. ........on the other hand. I have at least one unmarked moser piece that is unquestionably Moser... so that statement was false.

How to Make a Simple Frame Loom
Looms can be the size of a house or as simple as a wooden frame. A frame loom has the warp as one continuous thread. A simple frame loom can be made from any type of pipe. The one shown in the following figure is made from copper pipe, although you can also use PVC pipe. The directions are for an 18-inch weaving surface, although you can vary the size of the loom by using different lengths of pipe for the side, top, and bottom bars.
To start, you need the following supplies:
An 8-foot length of 3⁄4-inch residential-grade rigid copper pipe
A pipe cutter
A roll of plastic wrap
Four 3⁄4-inch copper T's
Four 3⁄4-inch copper street elbows
Two 3⁄4-inch copper 90-degree elbows
Four 3⁄4-inch caps
Cut six 4-inch pieces of copper pipe and four 18-inch pieces.
Pipe cutters are inexpensive and surprisingly easy to use. However, if you don't want to cut the pipe yourself, some hardware stores can cut it to length for you.
Now you are ready to assemble the loom:
Attach the two 90-degree elbows to either end of one of the 18-inch pipes.
Place an 18-inch pipe in each of the open ends of the 90-degree elbows.
Attach a T to each open end of the 18-inch pipes. Use the long end of the T's.
Place the remaining 18-inch length of pipe into the short ends of the T to form a square.
Place a 4-inch piece of pipe into the open ends of the attached T's.
Attach a T to both of these 4-inch pieces using the short end of the T.
Secure the remaining four pieces of 4-inch pipe into the ends of the T's.
Place the caps on the street elbows and place the street elbows on the open ends of the 4-inch pieces.
These will form the feet on the loom.
Wrap a small square of plastic wrap over the ends of the pipes to hold the fittings firmly in place.
The plastic wrap will hold the pipe together as if it had been glued, but you'll still be able to take it apart to adjust the size of the loom.
Make sure that everything is snug and even.

Who Are the Most Overpaid CEOs On Wall Street?
As of May 31, the highest-paid CEO in banking was Lloyd Blankfein of Goldman Sachs Group (GS), with $26 million a year. He made this sum despite seeing Goldman's revenues drop this third-quarter by 22 percent from the second-quarter and 20 percent from a year ago, while presiding over a share price drop of 2 percent.
No one is surprised any longer by exorbitant amounts made by the top men at banks. In 1965, the average CEO made 20 times as much as his average employee, whereas today's CEOs make roughly 270 times as much, according to a study by the Economic Policy Institute, a liberal think tank.
%VIRTUAL-article-sponsoredlinks%From 1978 to 2011, the gap between executive salaries and regular pay has grown by around 876 percent, but who is really worth that sort of money?
Bloomberg ranked the 20 biggest North American banks by assets on whether their CEOs were overcompensated or undercompensated.
First, the banks were ranked on three measures to assess their results and size at the end of each one's 2012 fiscal year: stock performance, return on common equity and total assets, including cash and investments. Then the average of the share performance, return on investment and asset scores for each bank was calculated to establish an average rank. Each CEO's compensation was subtracted from his or her bank's average rank. (Total compensation includes salaries, stock awards, bonuses and long-term incentive awards given to CEOs for their performance in 2012, which is not always the same as the figures that appear in proxies' Summary Compensation Tables.) The CEOs with the biggest difference between the two rankings were regarded as the most overcompensated.

push (one's) luck
To risk losing the good favor or fortune one has garnered thus far by brashly or overconfidently seeking more. I know you're in the boss's good graces now, but don't push your luck.
