A forensic clinical psychologist from Yale University School of Medicine will join Rochester Institute of Technology's College of Health Sciences and Technology as professor of health sciences, effective Sept. 1.
Caroline Easton founded and directed the Forensic Drug Diversion Clinic and served as associate professor in the Department of Psychiatry at Yale's School of Medicine, where she interned in 1997 and joined the faculty in 1998.
Easton is a 1990 RIT graduate, with a bachelor's degree in biotechnology and a minor in psychology. She earned her doctoral degrees in psychology in 1994 at University of Connecticut and respecialized in clinical psychology at University of Massachusetts, Amherst in 1997.
"I'm excited to be coming back to my alma mater," Easton says. "It's like I'm coming home. I started off here."
Easton is the first faculty member to join RIT's College of Health Sciences and Technology from outside the university. RIT's ninth college officially opened in September 2011 as part of the Institute of Health Sciences and Technology, which grew from the RIT–Rochester General Health System Alliance. Easton's arrival marks the first step toward a program in clinical psychology, says Dr. Daniel Ornt, vice president and dean of the Institute of Health Sciences and Technology/College of Health Sciences and Technology at RIT.
"Dr. Easton's experience and expertise will help advance new learning and training experiences for our students to set the stage for new academic program development within the College of Health Sciences and Technology and across campus," Ornt says.
Easton's clinical research assesses the links between substance abuse and criminal behavior. She has developed a treatment therapy for individuals with co-occurring substance abuse and domestic violence issues. She is currently working on individual behavioral approach for men who are substance dependent and have problems with intimate partner violence.
Her integrative research will connect the new college with other colleges and departments within RIT and with external partners at Rochester General Health System/Behavioral Health Network, University of Rochester Medical Center's Department of Psychiatry, Monroe County criminal justice system and Monroe County Office of Mental Health.
"I work in the forensic field on therapies that help people reduce their aggression, manage their anger and get off drugs," Easton says. "I'll be working on projects within the community and helping people think about co-occurring substance use and family violence as a whole."

A. You make an initial payment of anything from £5,000 and pay a quarterly fee of around £30 (that is around £120 a year), linked to RPI. This gives you access to all HPB's 1,400+ holiday homes.
A. After an initial charge of 25%, it is invested in a fund of holiday properties and securities. The fund itself then meets annual charges of 2.5% and other overheads. The return on your investment is purely in the form of the enjoyment you experience from your holidays. As with most investments, your capital is at risk.
A. For each visit you will pay a no profit user charge, calculated to cover property running and maintenance costs, such as electricity, cleaning, gardening, refurbishment and local taxes and use of on-site facilities but with no profit rental element. The charge stays level throughout the year, so there are no high season premiums. For a studio for two this will average about £300 a week, for a two-bedroom property for four around £460 a week. Larger properties are also available.
A. Yes. You can surrender your investment back to the company after two years or more (subject to deferral in exceptional circumstances) but you will not get back the full amount you invested. What you do get back will reflect the charges referred to earlier, as well as other overheads and changes in the value of the fund's properties and securities.
A. A large part of the initial charges pays for future marketing of the Bond. The more Bondholders and the more investment we can attract, the more properties the Bond can buy – increasing your choice of holiday. Annual charges go toward the administration of the fund, operating the holiday booking system and providing support to Bondholders, helping you book and enjoy your holidays.

Australian man Matt Scarff in coma after reportedly being king hit in Bali
An Australian man is in a coma after reportedly being king hit outside a nightclub in Bali over the weekend.
Matt Scarff runs a surf school in the popular tourist town of Kuta, and splits his time between Byron Bay and Indonesia.
His cousin Tony Maguire says Mr Scarff, 41, was attacked as he left a nightclub late Friday night and has been in a critical condition since.
"[He was] rushed to hospital in Bali, and unfortunately one of the worst hospitals there, not the international one," he said.
"And since that was obviously early Saturday morning, he's been there ever since [and is] in a pretty bad way, he hasn't been well enough to be moved to the better hospital."
Mr Maguire says Mr Scarff has undergone surgery to relieve the pressure on his brain.
"He's been in and out of consciousness but never opened his eyes or actually spoken or acknowledged anyone," he said.
"Yesterday they made the decision that they had to do surgery, brain surgery - there was a lot of built-up pressure.
"They also identified a clot in his head so they couldn't bore in and do the normal drilling surgery, they actually had to remove a section of the skull."
Mr Maguire says Balinese doctors have given the green light for Mr Scarff to be moved to Darwin.
He says his cousin has a chest infection, so the family had hoped he would be flown out overnight.
Mr Scarff does not have travel insurance, and Mr Maguire is fundraising to help pay for the flight.
Officials from the Australian Consulate-General in Bali are providing consular assistance to Mr Scarff and his family.

Let me start this thread off with that most iconic of Macross Mecha - the venerable VF-1.
From the Macross Mecha Manual:
In SDF Macross, the entire air/space wing of the SDF-1 pilot the different variants of the VF-1. These variants (aside from the Armored and FAST pack-enabled ones) are just about identical to the basic model with the exception of the number of head lasers, so the quality of equipment barely matters in the greater scheme of things. It proved so successful and iconic that the name went on to become the common nickname for all subsequent variable fighters. In fact, they are much more likely to be called "Valkyries" than their official designations are used.
From an outside-the-universe perspective, it's fairly obvious that the design of the Valkyrie is based on the F-14 Tomcat. Likewise, much of the specifications and other details are drawn up in a manner similar to real combat aircraft. Furthermore, the "VF" designation is also used for US Navy air group squadrons. In particular, at the time that SDF Macross aired, the VF-84 squadron, the "Jolly Rogers", flew F-14s and used the same skull and crossbones insignia that adorned Skull Squadron.
Fact that only I'm likely to care about: the design of the VF-1 was used by Fasa's Battletech game as the basis of no fewer than four Battlemechs: the Wasp, the Stinger, the Phoenix Hawk (Phoenix being the name of the F-14's signature missile), and the Valkyrie!
... and, as dahak pointed out, the Crusader makes it five.

Talking about Mecha, can anyone guess what models are these?
I know one is a Vf-25, but the other?
is it a VF121 Ghost? I'm not sure. it looks strange.

And also the body part between the forward cannard and the wings is similar to yf-19 no?
see the third picture of this link (the first colored yf-19 in fighter mode):

The fighter in the OP is quite a bit different from it, so I presume that it's an entirely new model that we'll see much more of in the coming episodes.

Here's a thought on the mystery ship, it's another prototype competing with the VF-25 for main production adoption ala macross plus :P
Kinda makes sense since the VF-25 is deployed for performance testing in combat. If i'm the competing manufacturer I'd want combat test data on my fighter as well

yeah, i've noticed that the fighter in that picture, has forward carnnard, and the wings are far too different to make it a VF-25 even in armoured packs.
Can't be a VF-171 as well.
yeah, it might be a VF-22 or at leased a variant of a VF-22

You know what?
I completely forgot about the VF-4 Lightning III.
look at it:
It could be derivative, if not spiritual successor based on the VF-4.
Just look, forward cannards leg engines off-centred spaced on the wings.

Nice, I was poking around Mahq.net and found some sketches of the VA-14
more info http://www.new-un-spacy.com/macross7/vf-14-m7plus.htm
also designed by General Galaxy they seems to like to work of a modified delta wing
But yeah i agree the pilot will be that girl shown in conjunction with the plane.

So we get a small bit of Tech update in ep 3.
The humans do have weapons that can take out a Red's armor, specifically the "secondary" fire on the Michel's sniper rifle. In atmosphere said rifle fires what looks like conventional rounds that can damage a "small" Varja though not pierce completely through it. Space operations allows it to fire a "highly charged" shot that can completely penetrate the Red's armor.
On the shot being "highly charged", evidence: the wound after the Red's head gets blown off appears to be cauterized .
Which leads us to another tech update on the "Red's" themselves. I'm still sticking with the Red's being alive themselves and not piloted suits. Why? Mostly if it was piloted I would think we would have had a least a rumor after Ozma killed the 1st one.
The Red's appear to be able to operate even when the head is removed. This may indicate the central nervous control is not located in the head but else where in the body, possibly in the more armored torso. Ozma's confirmed killed seems to indicate that the "death" was more do to "fluid" loss rather than destruction of a central nervous hub.

that might be an entire new model. Looks like a VA 14 variation though.
Those wings are not close to being conventional. If i have to draw a chord line to measure sweep angle.. i have to say it's in no way forward swept like that VF 19's.

A Story of a Cat Called ~ Camus!
A Story of a Cat Called ~ Camus!
Written by
Serban Andrei Mazilu
Cam loved the lobby. He'd been there for as long as he could remember and, unlike other local species, the company of these noisy creatures, roaming around on their hind legs, agreed with him. Curled around on his spot on the red velvet sofa, he watched them with lazy, half-open, brown eyes, and couldn't help but wonder constantly: "Where's the hurry?" Indeed, these beings that oftentimes gazed at him in surprise and distorted their faces in a way he couldn't – because he'd tried it many times – were always on the move for some reason. For Cam, times passed differently, faster and more intense; in his way, he worshipped that lobby as Adam would Eden, knowing no other home or world, living with the certainty that this small hotel was built for him and it began existing little before he did. Outside was something strange and... not really that interesting. But, truth be told, he wasn't different than any other feline: Cam was chronically lazy.
His dilated chestnut eyes scanned the room with interest. That family of light-haired people was finally handing in the keys and picking up their suitcases. Cam exhaled deeply, happy to be rid of those annoying pair of cubs that followed the adults around – they bothered the hell out of him, always tugging on his tail and squeezing him tightly. A couple of days back, they even applied something that, for the humans, would be called torture; luckily, his body was a lot more flexible than those of the two blond brats, and he doubted that being stretched like chewed bubblegum would have been as tolerable for them. In addition, their parents let them run wild (unlike other adult humans Cam saw pass through along the years), so they squealed and screamed and made all sorts of high-pitched noises that made him squint and sneak for cover whenever he'd hear the mini barbarians' war cries.
Missy was smiling and delivering the line he'd heard so many times, but he could tell she was faking it. In fact, anyone working there could have confirmed it; she was obviously tired and stressed, and shared his relief at the thought of being rid of this pack of disturbing mammals. Cam noticed all this and many other things bipeds didn't – sometimes he'd raise this question at them, but the answer always came as a piece of meat. One could only imagine the cat's confusion; he was never able to tell if humans were insane or just silly...
The afternoon sun shone large spotlights through the glass doors, illuminating lazily the wide hall. Cam... appeared to be smiling. Or the feline version to that particular facial expression. As the yellow-fur group departed, he hopped off the sofa and silently strolled across the crimson carpet towards the main desk. His large head (for Cam was a strong and well-fed tomcat) turned left and right, looking calmly and lovingly at his beautiful home: brown-orange wooden walls gave him the feeling of constant warmth, and those strangely shaped green glass things, that started glowing when the Outside went black, looked like quite friendly. He adored the red velvet furniture and carpet – they were very comfortable, but, then again, there were little spots where Cam wouldn't feel comfortable. What he loved the most though was the size of it all: he could sneak and run around freely, without getting in anyone's way. For instance, and with Missy completely unaware of it, he'd often enjoy a game of peek-a-boo, using the four solid marble pillars in the hall as hiding spots.
With little effort, Cam hopped on the desk, startling the receptionist and saluting her with a low and hoarse meow. His striped tail whipped left and right, before he sat down, staring straight in her eyes.
"Camus! For goodness sake, you stealthy scoundrel! ...I wish you'd actually understand what I'm saying and cease the surprise attacks. One of these days you're going to give me a heart attack," Missy said and extended his palm over his head. She knew he'd lean into it and pet himself without her having to pay attention. Cam purred loudly and his right ear turned to the side when Gary responded, hearing Missy complain about him again.
"Don't underestimate Camus, girl" the old man said in a pleasant tone, like one would speak to his grandkids. "That cat is smarter than you-know-who and his daddy put together."
"How do you figure?" the plump receptionist asked, playing with her short black curls like usually.
Gary smiled and his coal gaze seemed to do the same, mostly because a part of him was proud to have known Camus since he was brought to the Faraday. But also because he had witnessed the rat population being drastically reduced immediately after the tomcat learned to hunt.
"...You know what, girl?" the janitor said. "When you come in, in the morning, use the back entrance."
"Why?" Missy asked absent-mindedly, looking over the register and pushing noisy Camus off the pages repeatedly, as he pushed in for more affection.
"Oh, you'll see!" Gary added and grabbed his mop and bucket, turning on his heels and grinning.
Cam watched the old man with dark brown skin leave. He liked Gary – he'd always share lunch with him and didn't overdo the petting. Most humans pressed too hard and taunted him by pulling on his ears or tail, but this man had a surprisingly gentle touch for a creature of his size. Involuntarily though, Gary had just altered his relationship with Missy (who would treat him differently starting the next morning), as she would come to find half a dozen dead rats, large as raccoons, lined up outside the service entrance. It wouldn't have been such a dramatic find if it wasn't Camus himself who would line them up and stand there proudly for Gary to arrive and praise him for a job well done.
The front door opening made the cat's head to turn fast and his eyes to zoom in on the creature approaching. If he could talk, he'd say "oh, not you again!", so instead he just turned around, sitting with his back at Missy and displaying the most annoyed (or disgusted) face a cat was capable of. This skinny human, that resembled an animated scarecrow, truly bothered him. For a person, Mr. Johnny (as the staff called him when they didn't refer to him as "you-know-who") gave the impression of a bothering individual, one you'd be smart to avoid. He was cunning in his way, gossipy and manipulative, and always smiled sinisterly, like he had something bad in store for you. To Cam however, he was more than that 'cause Cam could see his spirit and his essence rise towards the surface. And he didn't care for that aura color at all...
"Hi, there, sweet cheeks!" he greeted Missy, winking clumsily and removing his hat with a failed elegant gesture. "What's the news? ...Oh!" he added, noticing Cam's spiteful gaze. "You again? Get outta here, hairball!" the man added, waving his hat at the cat, but provoking a different reaction from him. "This critter is so annoying! Someone should tell Marta it's not sanitary or safe to keep an animal in here, with all the clients!"
Cam smiled in satisfaction, as the current of air from the hat's movement cooled him somewhat. He turned his head towards Missy, like to see what she'd respond.
"Camus's been here longer than I have, Mr. Johnny. And nobody's complained so far... So..."
The young ginger-haired man frowned with his thin eyebrows and narrowed his green beady eyes at the feline. He coughed to adjust his metallic voice and concluded.
"All the same, there should be a law," he said. "...I hate cats – they can't guard, they don't come when you call them... They just lie around and act like they own the place. Stupid, useless pets..." John added venomously.
Cam responded with the same bored look, then jumped off and disappeared in the shadows of the titanic marble columns. In his mind, he was convinced this "Mr. Johnny" was just jealous – unlike the scrawny human male, Camus was covered in rich, dark orange fur with brownish stripes, and didn't hide it with a hat (that didn't even fit his head), making it look like a handful of hay trying to escape from under it. When it came to Johnny, Cam wasn't confused: this person was just bad. And, being a cat, he didn't give a rat's behind about the reasons behind his spitefulness, though he knew it was mostly frustration. What he didn't understand was why Marta even bothered giving him the time of day.
"Hey, Ca-mew!" she called in her crystal voice, smiling at Cam with all her being. "Come on in!" the blond girl added, beckoning him with her delicate hand.
"Mew," he said, in his friendly low tones, scouting her office and making an effort to determine her shape as Marta stood in front of the large open windows. The powerful white light played with his vision, now seeing the girl in shades of blue. He hopped on her desk and sniffed her. She was wearing that flowery scent that made his blood tingle and electricity run down his spine, all the way to the tip of his tail.
"Meow-mew," he declared, looking in her large blue eyes that every once in a while seemed to be covered by lashes as large as butterflies. He pawed at them as often as he could.
"Why thank you, kind sir!" she exclaimed and giggled, bowing her head playfully. "I am so glad you like my dress!" Marta said, pressing the slight creases of her white, knee-long summer dress, with colorful flowers on it. "And, may I add, your mane looks particularly shiny today, my dear Ca-mew!" the girl added and shook her head fast a couple of times, displaying her own golden curls glimmering in the sun.
Cam nodded slowly, in agreement, placed his paws on her shoulder and laid his head against Marta's cheek. They both closed their eyes for a second, enjoying the moment, then he licked her face a couple of times with his rough tongue, making the girl laugh.
"Enough, enough!" she squealed and laughed. "Go on now, I have a hotel to run. You may sit in the armchair there, if you want," Marta added.
He circled the spot a few times and sat – he felt safe in that armchair, especially with Johnny around…

The unwritten political rule when disaster strikes is that campaigns take a back seat, far behind recovery efforts. Such is the case with super storm Sandy, as both presidential campaigns put their official electioneering efforts on hold while the tempest slammed the East Coast this week. Putting the storm into political context was left to pundits and other professional opinionators.
But where the candidates and their on-the-record surrogates kept mum as the storm rolled on shore in New Jersey and New York, L.A. Times readers brought politics to the fore. This isn't to say readers' comments weren't cogent; indeed, there's much to be said for bringing up touchy issues (say, funding for the Federal Emergency Management Agency) the moment they face their biggest on-the-ground tests (say, Sandy). Rather, perhaps this shows that voters aren't as sensitive to politics in a time of national crisis as the candidates are.
So far, the mailbag haul for Superstorm Sandy has been relatively light: about two dozen letters. Almost all of them make political points, including the campaign ramifications for President Obama and GOP rival Mitt Romney, the candidates' views on federal disaster spending and climate-change policy. Below is a selection of those letters, edited for style, grammar and clarity.

Boot Opening On Its Own While Driving
ScubaSuzie replied to ScubaSuzie's topic in General Ford Related DiscussionsHi jeebowhite, Thanks for the info - if I was to purchase the switch unit do I still need to do any soldering or is it simply a replaceable item? I think I saw the example on the CMAX section - is it the one where he used bits of a computer mouse to fix it? Very clever! ScubaSuzie

Boot Opening On Its Own While Driving
ScubaSuzie posted a topic in General Ford Related DiscussionsHi, Can anyone help me? I'm a girl and don't know a lot about how to fix cars and wondered if there was anyone out there who might be able to give me some advice? My boot has started opening on its own, doesn't matter if you slam the boot or shut it gently, it still opens again on its own, this causes a message to appear on the dashboard, the red light to say the boot is open along with the interior light and an alarm sounds for a short while. I've been reading some of the other forums on the internet and it appears it's possibly water ingress. I've just phoned my local main dealer and they're going to get back to me, but I can't really afford a big bill at the moment (still waiting for pay day)! Please help a maiden in distress! Thanks ScubaSuzie
Problem With No. 2 Cylinder On 2010 Fiesta Zetec
ScubaSuzie replied to ScubaSuzie's topic in Ford Fiesta ClubThanks Stef123 and Lenny. Lenny - I can't find the thread for your answer to my question I posted when I first joined this group, about my rear seat folding down. I tried pulling up the seat bench but its stuck fast - I phoned my local Main Dealer and they had a go with one in the showroom and it appears the design has been changed so that the seat back folds down on top of the bench which is a nuisance as it doesn't go completely flat (unless you put something REALLY heavy in the back). I do believe, though, this is the only thing I don't like about my car! Having had a Peugeot 206 previously and the seat folded down flat, I do miss it - more so later this year when I travel up to Yorkshire with a load of luggage. Am even considering contacting a coachbuilder (or someone who would do this kind of work) to see how much it would cost to change the format of the seat so it will do what I want it to! Suzanne
Problem With No. 2 Cylinder On 2010 Fiesta Zetec
ScubaSuzie posted a topic in Ford Fiesta ClubHi Guys, I have a 2010 Fiesta Zetec which I've owned for about 18 months and recently had to call out the AA under the Ford Assist plan as my engine light appeared during the wet weather we had a couple of weeks ago. A good spraying of WD40 was the answer, which indeed did solve the problem, but decided to get it checked out at my local Main Dealer under the warranty plan. I've just had a call from the garage and apparently it just needed a new spark plug as the ceramic had cracked on No. 2. They told me that the spark plugs are due to be changed at the next service (third year) which apparently is normal, but as one is cracked, they will change all four of them at a cost of over £69 as spark plugs aren't covered under the warranty plan. Does this sound right to you guys? I don't know a lot about engines, but I always thought spark plugs should be changed at every service and just assumed they were changed at my last service in October. Looking forward to your comments. ScubaSuzie
Space For Tomtom Satnav?
ScubaSuzie posted a topic in New Member IntroductionsHi there Happy New Year to all of you Fiesta owners! I'm very happy with my Fiesta Zetec - I've now owned it for about a month and am loving it, especially the colour! I have a question which I'm sure someone out there will know the answer - does anyone know what the two slots are for about the space where (presumably) the ashtray used to be on the central console? The salesman told me he thought they were for pound coins, but they don't fit. I wondered if it was possible to connect a TomTom satnav to the slots so the device can sit in front of the empty space? Thanks in advance...
Thanks Jam_rs
I'm really enjoying driving my new car. One thing that's bugging me though - when I put the back seats down in my Peugeot 206 the boot area was completely flat due to the bench being lifted up to accommodate the back of the seat, wheras, in the Fiesta, I'm finding there's a 'huge' step where the back sits on the bench - any suggestions? My Mum's Fi...

Loving My New Fiesta!
ScubaSuzie posted a topic in New Member IntroductionsHi Everyone! Just bought a year-old Fiesta Zetec 1.25 in "Lime Squeeze" and love it already! It's taking me a bit of time getting used to all the features available - will be playing with it at the weekend no doubt. Am I right in assuming that once I plug my iPhone into BOTH the sockets (usb and audio line) I will be able to see the music tracks playing on the radio screen? I connected it via the USB a couple of days ago (after a lesson from the salesman) and it showed a WiFi symbol but no song info... he said that was all it did, but I'm going to dig deeper to find out... Also, has anyone experienced the miles per gallon info jumping about from 22-50-99-23-57-43 mpg? Mine was changing every second which was a bit strange and the average speed said I was doing 24mph (I was doing between 50-60mph on the motorway - in heavy traffic) and the average fuel consumption was 40.2. Can I reset these? Anyone out there know? Thanks a million folks. ScubaSuzie

John D. Silva was the chief engineer for KTLA-TV in 1958 when he outfitted a helicopter with a TV camera and changed television news coverage forever.
He turned a rented Bell helicopter into the Telecopter, essentially a flying TV studio. The first of its kind, it put Channel 5 news at the forefront of live aerial coverage of major events like parades, fires, earthquakes and massive freeway snarls.
Hundreds of televised car chases later, Silva's invention is a staple of local television news stations, along with the mobile unit he also had a hand in developing.
Silva, whose two Emmy Awards include one in 1974 for developing the Telecopter, died Nov. 27 in Camarillo of complications of pneumonia, his family said. He was 92.

Elis Win Crew of the Year, Coach of the YearAugust 15, 2011On the heels of its IRA Championship winning season, the Yale men's lightweight crew team has scooped both the Crew of the Year and Coach of the Year awards from the Eastern College Athletic Conference.
Yale Falls to Harvard at HenleyJuly 01, 2011The national-champion Yale lightweights fell this morning to the Harvard heavyweight freshman at the Henley Royal Regatta, ending their bid for the Temple Challenge Cup in the quarterfinals. The Bulldogs were unable to overcome a strong move at the halfway point by the Crimson, eventually falling by ¾ length.
Y150 Set to Face Harvard at HenleyJune 30, 2011The Yale lightweights earned their second win of the Henley Royal Regatta this morning, defeating Florida Tech by a verdict of ½ length. Yale, the lightest crew entered in the Temple Challenge Cup, weighing in an average of 31 pounds lighter than their Florida Tech opponents, was forced to come from behind to defeat the Panthers, trailing by approximately ½ length at the Barrier and about a seat at Fawley before pulling ahead for good in the second half of the race. Yale finished in a time of 6:24.
Lightweights Advance at HenleyJune 29, 2011The Yale lightweight varsity eight's trip to Henley Royal Regatta began successfully today, with the Bulldogs defeating St. Hild and St. Bede College, Durham by 1.25 lengths. St. Hild and St. Bede, which qualified for the regatta's main draw in the Temple Challenge Cup by making it through the qualifying round on Friday.
Lightweights Set to Depart for HenleyJune 19, 2011The national-champion Yale lightweights will depart Tuesday for Henley-on-Thames, England, to race in the Henley Royal Regatta from June 29-July 3. The Bulldogs earned their trip by winning the IRA national championship two weeks ago in Camden, N.J., edging then-undefeated and top-ranked Harvard by a mere .022 seconds and extending the careers of the four seniors in the varsity eight.
Walker Elected Lightweight CaptainJune 14, 2011The Yale lightweights, whose varsity eight recently won the IRA national championship, have elected David Walker as their captain for the 2011-2012 season. Walker, who rowed in the six-seat of the varsity eight this spring, called his election an "honor."
Lightweights Win National ChampionshipJune 04, 2011A barnburner in the varsity lightweight eight event brought an end to three days of racing for the Y150's at the 109th IRA Regatta, with the Yale varsity eight being crowned national champions. The Bulldogs won their heat early in the morning and came back some four hours later to cross the finish line first ahead of Harvard to claim the national title. It was a photo finish as a margin of 0.02 seconds came out in Yale's favor, giving the Bulldog varsity a gold medal to go with their bronze from the Eastern Sprints three weeks ago. The win marked the Bulldogs' first national title since 2005 and fifth under the tenure of head coach Andy Card.
Open Four Advances to Grand Final at IRA'sJune 03, 2011The Yale lightweight crew team is making strides in the open four – a heavyweight event – at the 109th IRA Regatta. The Y150's finished second in their repechage to earn a spot in Saturday's grand final. The Bulldogs will now have three boats racing on Saturday with the open four in the grand final, the lightweight four in the grand final and the varsity eight with both heats and finals.
Open 4+ Opens IRA's for LightweightsJune 02, 2011Yale's open four began the weekend slate of racing this morning for the Yale lightweight rowing team, finishing third in its heat. The crew, racing in a heavyweight event, is made up of Michael Buttrick, Chad Bailey, Joseph Hanlon, Drew Lawson, and coxswain Wendy Lin. By rule, it must include at least one freshman and at least one upperclassman among its oarsmen.
Lightweights to Race at IRA National ChampionshipsJune 01, 2011Three weeks after a bronze-medal finish at the Eastern Sprints, the Yale lightweight varsity eight travels to the IRA National Championship on the Cooper River in Camden, N.J. Competing for the national title will be the top seven finishers from the Eastern Sprints as well as Mercyhurst, the top lightweight crew at the Dad Vail Regatta. At the Sprints, Yale led with 750 meters remaining in the race before being passed by Harvard and Dartmouth.
Two Golds, One Bronze for Y150 at SprintsMay 15, 2011Yale's lightweight crews earned three medals, including two golds, at Eastern Sprints on Lake Quinsigamond in Worcester, Mass., this afternoon. The first freshman and third varsity eights won, while the varsity eight finished third.
No. 4 Yale Prepared for Sunday's EARC SprintsMay 13, 2011The Yale lightweights will travel to Worcester, Mass., this weekend for the Eastern Sprints regatta to compete for the EARC and Ivy League titles. Sunday's racing will feature 10 of the top-12 ranked lightweight crews in the nation, with only the top seven finishers qualifying for the IRA National Championship on June 4.
Yale Wins Three but Drops Cups to HarvardApril 30, 2011With victories over Yale and Princeton in the varsity and second varsity eight this morning on the Charles River, Harvard retained the Goldthwait and Vogel Cups for the second straight year. Three other Yale crews, however, won their races, with the first freshman, third varsity, and fourth varsity/second freshman eights defeating their Crimson and Orange rivals.
No. 4 Yale Ready for No. 1 Princeton, No. 2 HarvardApril 27, 2011In a series of races that will feature six undefeated crews between three of the nation's preeminent lightweight rowing programs, the Yale lightweights will travel to the Charles River in Cambridge, Mass., to contest Harvard and Princeton for the Goldthwait and Vogel Cups on Saturday. The Goldthwait Cup will be awarded to the winner of the varsity eight and a point system used to calculate overall team supremacy determines the winner of the Vogel Cup.
Lightweights Split Varsity RacesApril 23, 2011In two drastically different sets of conditions, the Yale lightweight rowing team saw mixed results in their two sets of races today on the Housatonic River. In the morning, Yale's third-ranked varsity eight defeated No. 4 Cornell and No. 7 Delaware in rainy, headwind conditions before losing to No. 8 Dartmouth on flat water in the afternoon. Yale's second varsity also split its races, losing to Cornell but beating Dartmouth. Yale's third varsity and first freshman were both undefeated on the day.
Two Races this Weekend for No. 3 YaleApril 21, 2011After defeating Penn and Columbia last weekend at home in both the varsity and second varsity races, the Yale lightweight crew, currently ranked No. 3 nationally, faces a pair of tests this Saturday on the Housatonic River. In the morning, the Bulldogs will race Cornell and Delaware before squaring off against Dartmouth for the Durand Cup. With two races scheduled for one day, the lightweights will use Saturday as a preparation for the Eastern Sprints, which consist of prelims in the morning and finals in the afternoon.
No. 3 Y150 Wins Both Races in Abbreviated RegattaApril 16, 2011In what head coach Andy Card described as a "survival at sea," the Yale lightweight rowing team defeated Penn and Columbia in both the varsity and second varsity events in windy conditions on the Housatonic River.
Rowing Schedule Changed for SaturdayApril 15, 2011Due to weather, the order of racing for Saturday's lightweight and heavyweight crew races at Gilder Boathouse has been altered. The women's races will still run from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m.
No. 3 Yale Prepares for Dodge CupApril 14, 2011After winning all four races against Georgetown and MIT on the Housatonic River last weekend, the Yale lightweight rowing squad will race again on its home course this Saturday, facing Penn and Columbia. Yale's varsity eight will compete for the Dodge Cup, which the Bulldogs have won 30 times in the last 32 years.
Y150 Sweeps Georgetown, MITApril 09, 2011The Yale lightweight rowing team won all four events against Georgetown and MIT this morning, with the varsity eight earning the Joy Cup with a 1.1-second victory over the Hoyas. All races saw favorable conditions, with a slight headwind increasing over the course of the day.
Lightweights to Race MIT, GeorgetownApril 07, 2011After opening its season with wins over the Naval Academy in four of five events in the Johnson Cup, including the varsity eight, the Yale lightweight rowing team will return to the friendly waters of the Housatonic to race at home for the first time this year on Saturday. The lightweights will compete with M.I.T. for the Joy Cup, with Georgetown as an invited guest for the fourth year running.
Yale Captures Johnson Cup From NavyApril 02, 2011The Yale lightweight rowing team's season got off to a strong start this afternoon on Lake Carnegie, where the Bulldogs took four out of five events, including the varsity eight, which captured the Johnson Cup for the third time in four years. Captain Andrew Hakanson was happy with the performance but added that the team must continue working in the coming weeks.
Y150 Opens Season with NavyMarch 31, 2011After a several months of training and a successful scrimmage against Trinity last weekend, the Yale lightweight rowing team will open its spring season on Saturday against Navy. The teams will race for the Eads Johnson, Jr. Cup on the neutral water of Lake Carnegie in Princeton, N.J.
Lightweights Ready to Begin Spring SeasonMarch 25, 2011The Yale lightweight crew begins its spring racing season on Saturday with a scrimmage against Trinity's heavyweights on Yale's home course on the Housatonic River. The matchup, which will consist of several pieces rather than a single 2,000-meter race, follows several months of indoor training and a two-week spring-break training session on the Housatonic. The Y150 will follow Saturday's Trinity scrimmage with six races over the next five weekends against league opponents before beginning its championship season on May 15 at the Eastern Sprints. Captain Andrew Hakanson pointed to a successful winter and a strong schedule as an indicator of potential success this season.
10 Bulldogs Earn Fall Academic All-Ivy HonorsDecember 07, 2010Ten Yale student-athletes have earned Fall Academic All-Ivy honors. Football players Patrick Witt and Jesse Reising, Jeff Perrella from the cross country team, soccer player Eric Meyer and lightweight rower William Zeng were honored on the men's side.

Gerson, American Secretary of the Rhodes Trust. Zeng, who will study at Oxford University, was one of two Yale students and three Ivy League athletes awarded with the Rhodes Scholarship/
Lightweights Race at Princeton ChaseOctober 31, 2010The Yale lightweight crew concluded its fall season this afternoon at the Princeton 3-Mile Chase, with the varsity eight finishing sixth overall. With most of the Bulldogs' EARC opponents and several other lightweight crews present, Yale was able to test its speed and depth against its spring competition as the team prepares to head into winter training.
Y150 to Compete at Princeton ChaseOctober 29, 2010The Yale lightweight rowing team will travel to Princeton, N.J., on Sunday for the Princeton 3-Mile Chase. The college-only regatta, held on Princeton's Lake Carnegie, will feature all but one of Yale's EARC opponents, giving the Bulldogs the opportunity to test their relative speed against league competition before entering winter training.
Lightweight Four Wins Head of the CharlesOctober 24, 2010The Yale lightweight crew took the top two spots in the lightweight four on Sunday at the 46th Head of the Charles Regatta, held in Boston. In a feat that head coach Andy Card called unprecedented, Yales B entry, comprised of freshmen Matthew ODonaghue, Matthew Bridgwater, Peter Bridgwater, Emery Schoenly and coxswain Ilana Usiskin, finished first with a time of 16:23.6 while Yales A entry of Patrick OKeefe, Kalani Rosell, Chris Mayerfeld, and Samuel Cooley, finished only half a second back with a time of 16:24.1.

Depending on the application there were either four or five of these rivet clips used to hold the brake and fuel lines to the frame—front-to-rear. The clip is designed to hold two lines, but in some instances, it only held one line. These rivet clips mount just the way the factory ones did and are dyed the original red color for an exact factory look.

There's excitement, tinged with frustration, in the air these days when you look at the world of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles. In agriculture, there's growing interest in low-altitude machines that can capture real-time information about crop growth, irrigation pivots, drainage and more.
Trouble is the Federal Aviation Administration is holding up the show. Sure, farmers can buy a UAV system and operating it over their farms to gather images and information. And that's fun, but you can't hire a consultant to fly his/her UAV over your farm to gather the information and help you make decisions. That's illegal.
But market forces are at work, and there's action in the courts as well to get the ball rolling. An early March court decision reversing an FAA fine against a film-maker offers hope that perhaps rules could come earlier than the Congress-mandated 2015. We'll see what happens.
In the meantime, farmers who want to know more about these high-flying data gatherers were crowding into meetings across the country over the winter. And this summer you'll have a chance to do the same.
And we've done our part to help keep you up to date on the latest tools in this area too.
However, this lack of rules and the inability for companies to deploy these systems means regulations are holding back commerce. A conversation with a company that installs drainage systems that also help irrigate cropland showed one area where UAV systems would make a big difference. The company needs to do mapping of fields to install the systems to work, and manually doing that is time-consuming. However, flying a UAV over the field would allow them to generate the map quickly and allow them to deploy their system efficiently for farmers and more accurately.
Trouble is, they can't do that with UAVs because of FAA limits on the profiting from system use. Their business is being held back and an innovative idea is slowed as well. Perhaps that lawsuit where FAA didn't get to charge their fine will get the ball rolling to move this tech ahead. There are safety issues to be sure - but in open farm country - we should have some room to move on the issue.
UAV Show
Warning, shameless promotion ahead: Farm Industry News is one of the media sponsors for the Precision Aerial Ag Show set to for July 9 and 10 in Decatur, Ill. at Progress City USA. That's the site where the Farm Progress Show is held every other year (this year Farm Progress Show is in Boone, Iowa).
The show aims to bring a host of experts in for seminars to discuss a range of key topics impacting the idea of UAV use. And there will be exhibitors on hand with the vehicles themselves. The best part of of this event is that it will be outdoors; which means there will be some flying at the event so you can see the different approaches to the technology in action.
The show schedule is shaping up and you can keep up on what's happening by visiting paas2014.com

The Civics United for Railroad Environmental Solutions (CURES) held a meeting on Thurs., Sept. 27 at St. Pancras' Pfeiffer Hall that sparked debate regarding possible solutions for trains running from Long Island through Fresh Pond Yard.
CURES co-chair Mary Parisen said that many of the cars coming from Long Island carry demolition debris with thin netting and harmful air pollutants. Some of the rail cars also idle near people's homes in Middle Village, posing a potential health threat to residents in the area.
With approximately 15 attendants, residents questioned why more people had not come to the meeting. Some felt that a protest might be the first step in the right direction. However, Robert Holden, the Juniper Park Civic Association president, felt that taking legal action could provide better results.
Holden said a lawsuit under the Clean Air Act could bring a temporary solution. "We don't know what our rights are now because we haven't tested it," Holden said, who added that noise and pollution from the rail cars was dangerous to local residents.
Yet, members questioned if current circumstances could provide relief under any type of legal action. Parisen stressed that because the State of New York owns the locomotives, there needed to be changes involved with federal law.
"We need to consider a community benefits agreement," Sleeper said, who felt that using funds from the Port Authority to put up sound barriers and other protective measures where rail cars pass could provide relief.
With the railway system in limbo, one thing was clear. "This is a very complicated issue," Parisen said.

How to make a diorama blog for the scale collector and diorama builder – diorama ideas – diorama tips tricks and techniques, it's all about building dioramas for scale collectors
I have been collecting scale vehicles and building scratch built dioramas or creating various scenes for over 30 years and now it's time to teach others how to do it. I could never find the right building or scenery or the quality product for what I had in mind so I had to learn how to make everything myself and to my standards. I guess that is why people rant and rave over my dioramas because they are a step or two above the competition; I have had many requests to display them at various shows and competitions. I am constantly asked how I make them and if I would sell them, so I decided to create a Blog to help people create their own dioramas. You can check it out over at HowToMakeADiorama.com.
The Blog is about a build of a Vintage Style Building I call it an Old Storage Building with different techniques to help build a building for your diorama. This is a great place to start if you want to create a quality diorama the buildings are one of the most important. The Blog goes into making mock-ups, laying out the design, studded walls, painting techniques, etc. and there are pictures along the way. It doesn't matter if you are a car, truck, motorcycle, airplane or train person the techniques and how to build dioramas are all the same, you just apply it to whatever you decide fits your needs.
The building created in the Blog actually measures 6″ wide x 10″ long with 4½" side walls and a 6/12 roof pitch. To help with scale sizes I have made available something called understanding scale replica vehicle sizes, along with a scale lumber chart and a few different scale rulers to help you in your builds that you can print out and physically use, all these items are all free.
So head on over to HowToMakeADiorama.com also available is a full length video and a pdf of the complete build.

Amazon Cries 'Uncle' On Promotion Traffic
from the so-much-for-that-plan dept
After all that online doorbuster traffic knocked out Amazon.com on Thanksgiving day, it appears that the company is taking a lesson from many brick-and-mortar stores who learned years ago that letting everyone in at once is a bit of a problem, and learned to hand out claim tickets instead. theodp writes that Amazon's way of fixing the problem is to "change the rules to eliminate it. The e-tailer has adopted new don't-visit-us-we'll-email-you-rules to eliminate the get-an-Xbox-for-100-bucks feeding frenzies that brought the site to its knees on Thanksgiving Day and forced it to postpone last week's sale." This really is no different than just giving people in line tickets to get their item at a separate time, just that the tickets will come via email -- and it's a bit surprising Amazon didn't think of this sooner.

Last time I made an off-the-cuff prediction each rider in today's Boulder Creek to Saratoga Gap Low-Key time trial would be passed, or be passed, by around 2 riders on average. That was based on the assumption riders varied by around 0.5% each in the sequence and that riders varied week-to-week by 2%. These were low estimates, I concluded, after examining the data.
For this post I actually did a numerical simulation, using numbers derived from Low-Key historical data.
- For each starter, I generated a normally distributed "true speed", with sigma = 14.4% about a mean (derived from historical data).
- For each rider, I then ran a "qualifying climb" in which speed varied normally with sigma = 4.2% from true speed (derived from my score history). Note this was based on the old scoring system, % of median, which includes an artifact that some weeks tend to yield different amounts of score spread than others. So it's probably an over-estimate.
- I assigned riders a start time based on the qualifying week, at one-minute intervals.
- I again assumed speeds vary normally with sigma = 4.2% on the time trial climb, which for the average rider takes 1 hour.
- I calculated the number of passes for each rider based on start order, and the number of times passed for the rider.
- I did the experiment 100 thousand times, averaging the results.
On average each riders is passed, and passes, 2.29 times during the time trial. Riders starting first or last tend to be statistical outliers, and are passed, or pass more than this average. This result is around twice what I'd ball-parked last time, primarily because I basically doubled my estimate of week-to-week variability. The distribution of passes and being passed versus start position is as follows:
So the first rider off was passed an average of 20 times in around 90 minutes of riding. Of course, he/she doesn't pass anyone. The final rider passes on average around 3.5 riders, although the rider passing the most riders was the ninth, who passes approximately 6 riders. This is because the slower riders have more time to make up a one-minute gap than the fastest riders.
In 10 thousand separate repetitions, the extreme cases were 28 passes by a rider, and by some statistical fluke one rider was passed 104 times (different riders, different years). Unfortunately the model doesn't handle extreme outliers well: it allows for near-zero or even negative-speed riders if the random numbers come out that way. Even so, if this was the worst thing to happen in a 10 millenia of W Hwy 9, that wouldn't be so bad.
We'll see how it goes today...

Season Two to Offer up Even More Outrageous, Laugh-Out-Loud Moments, As Well As Extreme Parenting Lessons from Todd Chrisley
April 8th Episode Scores Season-To-Date High, Up 34% from Prior Week
NEW YORK - April 14, 2014 - USA Network today announced a 12-episode order for a second season pickup of the breakout original reality series, CHRISLEY KNOWS BEST. The real-life family comedy follows the entertaining lives of Atlanta-based "Patriarch of Perfection" Todd Chrisley, and his colorful clan including his wife, five children and two grandchildren. The buzzy series has captured a loyal following in its first season and is the network's youngest original series to date with a median age of 36.5.
"We knew from the moment we met Todd there was no other character quite like him and whether or not you agree with his parenting style, he has certainly struck a chord with our viewers as their new guilty pleasure," said Heather Olander, senior vice president, alternative programming for USA Network. "We're excited to continue the laughs and be there for more genuine family moments with Todd and his family in season two."
Season one introduced the outspoken and overprotective, but very loving husband and father, Todd Chrisley and his unique brood, including his lovely wife Julie, and charming-yet-scheming children: Lindsie, Kyle, Chase, Savannah and Grayson. The season was filled with laugh-out-loud moments and Todd's signature one-liners, where in Todd's words, "Crazy runs deep!" Highlights include Todd cringing over his teenage daughter's questionable wardrobe choices, a heated competition between Todd and his not-so-favorite son-in-law at a shooting range (where Todd showed up in a full army attire), Chase being punished with a boot on his car (courtesy of dear dad!), and Todd presenting his oldest daughter with a boob cake before her breast augmentation surgery. But despite their crazy moments and Todd's over-the-top behavior, he has the best intentions at heart and at their core, they are a fun, close-knit, loving family.
The series will conclude its 8-episode first season on Tuesday, April 22nd at 10/9c, with Todd's granddaughter Chloe celebrating her first birthday. In true Todd fashion, he bets his wife Julie that he can throw just as fabulous a birthday party for Chloe as she could. The wager is on, but Todd has to do it all on his own. He soon realizes the hard way that planning a party with cupcakes and a petting zoo is not as easy as Julie makes it look.
CHRISLEY KNOWS BEST hit a season high with last Tuesday's all-new episode, garnering 823,000 P18-49, 742,000 P25-54 and 1.2 million total viewers P2+. From the prior week, this marks a 34% increase in P18-49, a gain of 23% in P25-54 and an increase of 10% total viewers P2+.
The entire first season of CHRISLEY KNOWS BEST is currently available on video on demand and USANetwork.com. Additionally, viewers can play along live with other CHRISLEY KNOWS BEST fans by going to chrisleylive.com from any device. Fans have the opportunity to answer quizzes and polls, see real-time results on-air and earn points that might land them on the on-air leaderboard at the end of the night.
CHRISLEY KNOWS BEST is produced by Maverick TV and All3Media America, with Adam Greener, Jim Sayer, Eli Holzman and Stephen Lambert serving as executive producers. Annie Kate Pons serves as supervising producer. Stephanie Bloch Chambers served as an executive producer/showrunner of season one.
