The following letter was received in response to the March 2002 feature, "Industrial-Strength Sag Correction," by Dr. Deepak Divan, Robert Schneider, and Daniel Bielinski.
Dear Editor,
On page 26, the authors state that "the utility reliability level for normal utility events is 99.99% (4 nines, or 2107 sec per year)." This number is used again in the table on page 28.
This got me thinking about how many seconds there are in a year. When I do the arithmetic for a 365-day year, I get 31,536,000 sec. When I calculate 4 nines (× .9999) on that number, I get 31,532,846. Subtracting that from the original sec-per-year comes to 3154 sec. This number doesn't agree with the figure given in the article. As I figure it, 2107 sec per year comes out to .9999332, not .9999.
The same thing occurs when I do the math for the 7-nines number (2.5 sec per year). Seven nines (.9999999) times the number of sec in a year comes out to 31,535,996.85. The subtraction comes out to 3.15 sec, not 2.5 as stated on page 26. How did the authors come up with their numbers for 4 nines and 7 nines?
Later in the magazine, on page 46, the article titled "The Power of Energy Storage" refers to 3 nines and 9 nines. This seems to conflict with the previously mentioned article. Is there some consensus in the industry for these numbers of 9s?
This was my first reading of your magazine. A colleague has a subscription. Aside from these minor details, I enjoyed the articles and will send in an application for a subscription.

Author's Response
Mr. Rowinski certainly raises a good question, one that engineers everywhere will surely agree with.
The concept of high nines has really come from attempts to translate a reliability requirement into simpler terms. Precursors to this concept include the six-sigma reliability program popularized by GE, the recent ad campaign by Microsoft on delivering 5-nines reliability (99.999%), and the assessment of IT power system reliability by the Gilder Group's Mark Mills and Peter Huber.
To answer the question, we were following popular nomenclature in representing a 99.9932% reliability level as 4 nines. As every additional nine represents an order of magnitude improvement in overall reliability, we felt this was an easier way for readers to visualize the significant differences in performance levels.

I would like to see an area in PQ News Beat that identifies training available in such areas as fuel cells, battery maintenance, power quality, power equipment, power testing equipment, grounding, and overcurrent protection. The area could include training available from colleges, training groups, and equipment providers.

Having said that, if it takes more that 1 revolution to start the tractor you have other things to consider. If it wont start at all, then grinding away on the starter will cause damage to any voltage system.
Egg-zactly. If the logic most people applied to converting to 12 volts really held water, they'd be going straight to 24 volts....bet that would really make the starter spin in cold weather!!

CSIS releases a top 20 list of firms serving the department
The top 20 contractors at the Homeland Security Department represent more than a third of all business done by contract at the department during fiscal 2011, according an analysis by the Center of Strategic and International Studies.
DHS spent $5.1 billion with the top 20 companies, and $14.2 billion on all contractors. IT and systems integration firms dominate the list, but the two of the top 20, including No. 1, go to shipbuilding companies.
According to the analysis by CSIS, the top 20 are:
Huntington Ingalls Industries is the "ship-building arm of Northrop Grumman that spun off last year," said Guy Ben-Ari, deputy director and senior fellow of the Defense-Industrial Initiatives Group at CSIS. It is also the prime contractor for the U.S. Coast Guard's next generation cutters.

New UK Class Web Site & Committee Appointments
18 January 2008
The Melges 24 UK Class Association is taking positive action to regenerate interest in Melges 24 sailing in Great Britain and it's first steps have been to relaunch it's web site and appoint an new Secretary, Press Officer and Treasurer.
The new UK web site is now online at melges24.co.uk and will be regularly updated with news, regatta information, images, etc, so check it out regularly for all the latest about Melges 24 sailing in the UK.
Helen Middleton-Stewart has been appointed as UK Class Secretary. Helen is already a familiar face to many in the UK as one half of an enthusiastic amateur husband and wife Melges 24 team. Having sailed dinghies for the past 20+ years, mainly in a Merlin Rocket, they bought a Melges 24 two years ago after husband James came back from a trial sail saying "we NEED one!".
When Helen moved to Dorset about 10 years ago she started to sail keel boats, starting with Sigma 33 racing at the local club before getting a taste for longer distance racing and eventually becoming part of a crew of one of the GB team boats for the Commodores Cup in 2004. Both James and Helen have competed in the Fastnet race twice and still enjoy the occasional venture offshore.
Asked about their sailing successes Helen tell us "We might not be the most successful Melges 24 team but we have had many enjoyable experiences with the boat. Sailing with a massive fleet and in massive winds at Hyeres in 2006, sailing against 40 foot yachts in the IRC fleet at Poole regatta and with the French fleet last spring in Dinard are but to name a few. This years adventures.....well we have a lot planned!"
You can contact Helen at Email: E-mail email@example.com, Phone +44 (0)1935 814096 or at The Rockery, Coombe, Sherborne, Dorset, DT9 4BX.
The second new appointment is an even more familiar Melges 24 face. Top international Melges 24 crew Justin Chisholm has been appointed as the UK Class Press Officer and is also in charge of redeveloping the web site. As well as crewing on some of the leading Melges 24s, in recent years Justin has also been a regular contributor to the IMCA E-news and M24 magazine and has reported on Melges 24 regattas and other events for other commercial publications and web sites.
In 2007 Justin launched the excellent www.offshorerules.com international sailing news web site where he not only carries general sailing news, but also provides outstanding "from the race course" reports of all the events he competes in.
You can contact Justin on E-Mail firstname.lastname@example.com or Phone +44 (0)7769 938722.
The final new UK Class appointment is Treasurer Eamonn O'Nolan, whose Unlimited Sailing Team has become a familiar sight on both the UK and International circuit during the past few years. A successful business man and keen sailor Eamonn is a great believer in supporting young, up and coming sailors and has brought many of the UKs top youth sailors and Olympic hopefulls into keelboat sailing for the first time. It was through some of these youngsters that Eamonn was first persuaded to try the Melges 24 but after one sail he was hooked and now he and his partner Michelle own a pair of Melges 24s and are a regular feature on the international circuite with their tallented young crews.
You can contact Eamonn on E-Mail firstname.lastname@example.com or Phone +44 (0)7770 786419.

Secretary of Agriculture Mike Johanns will discuss the agricultural benefits of the Global Earth Observation System of Systems (GEOSS) at a press event May 20 at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce in Washington, DC. As the redundant-sounding name implies, the GEOSS project seeks to coordinate multiple satellite networks into a comprehensive worldwide system for collecting weather and crop data.
GEOSS includes satellite data from U.S. agencies such as the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration System (NOAA) and National Aeronautic & Space Administration (NASA). More than 60 countries currently contribute to the project, as well as international organizations such as the European Space Agency. Private sector corporations with a stake in satellite imaging also participate in the program. Representatives from John Deere, Monsanto, Bunge, National Corn Growers Association, National Cotton Council and DigitalGlobe are expected to speak at the May 20 event.
Among the benefits expected to be discussed will be better local and regional scale temperature, rainfall, and soil moisture information. With such Earth observations, farmers can better decide the rate of fertilizer application, placement of seeds, and use of irrigation to maximize crop yield and minimize crop damage. Satellite images can be used as a scouting tool to evaluate crop stress on individual farms or on a global scale. Crop stress images from Brazil, for example, could be used to make better grain-marketing decisions.

Few travelers whizzing through the Flint Hills today on I-70 have any idea people actually live in those gently rolling hills that go on forever, but Jemm of the Flint Hills is one of them.
Jemm and her family just moved into the stone house built by her husband's great-great-grandparents on their ranch in 1892. Grass fires are all too common in the Flint Hills, hence the house was built partly to survive them and partly because in 1892, limestone was plentiful and trees were not.
My own great-grandparents settled near the Flint Hills because the area looked like the part of England where both were born.
Somersetshire, home of Chez Sophie.
Sophie's first attempt at making strawberry jam
brought back memories of my mother doing the same
with strawberries from our garden in Kansas.
Doesn't Sophie's jam look simply yummy in the jars she's
been collecting all winter from flea markets and boot sales?
She used the simple recipe from the back of the Jam sugar. (Note: Jam sugar is an extra-fine sugar available in the UK for preserving that contains citric acid and pectin. The American equivalent would be regular sugar and fruit pectin.)
Continuing the berry theme - though not intentionally - Blueberry Heart takes us to Worcestershire and some of the shops in Worcester's High Street. Her favorite was New England Country Store.
Call it my quirky sense of humor, but I find it ironic that a shop only a few miles from the Bard's birthplace sells items from the American Colonies. (On the other hand, a McDonald's at the Tower of London is just plain tacky....)
Worcester, of course, is the home of Worcester Cathedral, founded in 680 - yes, six hundred and eighty - and described as "possibly the most interesting of all England's cathedrals, especially architecturally".
I won't say it's the most interesting, but definitely worth a visit.
Pixie Dust at Faerie Nuff has a wonderful recipe for that uniquely summer treat, homemade Custard Ice Cream. The good news is it can be made in an ice cream freezer, but doesn't have to be. Your fridge's freezer will work just fine.
My taste buds are in overdrive imagining several creamy scoops of this topped by dollops of Sophie's strawberry jam, or some of those heart-y blueberries!
From England, we pop down to southern Spain's Mediterranean coast to meet one of its most delightful and adorable residents, the Lovely Lola.
With the help of Nora (her mostly useless PA), Lola dishes out divine advice on a variety of subjects at The Johnson Diaries: Life On The Edge. Her photo should tell you that in spite of the address, she adores all things French!
Remind me to send the divine Lola a huge basket of doggie treats for pointing me to Lucy Fishwife's Life Happens Between Books, the musings and tribulations of a London West End bookseller married for 17 years to...surprise...Mr. Fishwife, who doesn't "see the point of fiction" and likes to record and replay televised rugby matches for the same reason book lovers re-read a favorite book. Or maybe only a Brit at heart can fully appreciate Lucy's take on Life...
"Un Couer en Provence", French for "A Heart In Provence".
Exactly where my heart landed on seeing Laeriss's gorgeous site several weeks ago - and then I lost the link! Perhaps that was a blessing, because between then and now she added a wonderful Olfactory Tour of Grignan, a village whose streets are filled with the scent of lavender. Elsewhere, she tells how to make lavender sugar to flavor one's tea.
If Tuscany is more to your liking, she takes us there twice: Holiday in Tuscany #1 and Holiday in Tuscany #2.
Merci, Laeriss!

March 28, 2008
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - In the first meeting between both programs, Division II Merrimack College defeated MIT, 13-8, on Wednesday. Casey Flynn, Stephanie Leger, and Laura Watson each registered two goals while Flynn added three assists. Leger and Edith Reshef both notched five caused turnovers as Leger added a team-high eight groundballs. Monique Squiers racked up 13 saves as the Engineers' ledger lowered to 1-4 on the year.
The Warriors opened the game with four straight goals, including three during the first two minutes. MIT got on the board with a goal from Flynn at the 12:58 mark, which was quickly followed by a strike from Merrimack. With 8:58 left in the half, the Engineers narrowed the gap when Leger connected on a feed from Flynn. Just over a minute later the Warriors found the back of the net to make the score 6-2, which held through the intermission.
Merrimack extended its advantage after 21 seconds expired in the second half. The Leger-Flynn connection returned at the 27:48 mark, but the Warriors tallied four goals during the next three minutes to increase their margin to 11-3. The Engineers countered with three unanswered goals in a span of 2:22. Watson accounted for the first two strikes as Flynn and Reshef earned the assists. Samantha O'Keefe brought MIT within five (11-6) courtesy of an unassisted goal at 20:09.
Following 13 minutes of scoreless play, the Warriors ended their own 17-minute scoring drought and raised the score to 12-6. The Engineers continued to attack and found success on strikes by Flynn and Erica Little. Merrimack ended any hopes of late rally by the Cardinal and Gray as it capped the scoring with 1:57 left to play.

ARANSAS PASS, Texas � A South Texas police officer had to deal with some unexpected monkey business as he wrote a speeding ticket.
A pet monkey bit Aransas Pass Officer Keith Moore on the hand in an attack captured on videotape.
KRIS-TV in Corpus Christi reported Thursday that Moore had a video camera on his glasses during the traffic stop.
Moore is seen handing the driver something to sign when a monkey leaps from the back seat, bares its teeth and bites the officer's right hand.
Moore says the monkey �came out of nowhere� during Wednesday's incident. The bite left a mark, but the 21-year-old officer was not hurt otherwise.
The trained monkey makes appearances at carnivals and other entertainment events.

This poll, fielded April 20-24, 2007, is a part of a continuing series of monthly surveys that solicits public opinion on the presidency and on a range of other political and social issues. Respondents were asked to say whether they approved of the way George W. Bush was handling his job as president and other issues such as the war in Iraq, to rate the condition of the environment in the world and their own community, and whether the Republican party or the Democratic party was more likely to protect the environment, make the United States less dependent on foreign oil, and ensure the United States has enough sources of energy. Respondents were asked several questions about protecting the environment, including which environmental problem was the most important, whether they would vote for a candidate based on their views of the environment, the responsibility of federal and state governments to set environmental protections, drilling for oil and gas in the Arctic National Wildlife refuge in Alaska, and whether it was more important to stimulate the economy or protect the environment. Respondents were asked whether the Iraq war has affected the price of gasoline, whether they would favor an increased tax on gasoline if it would reduce the United States' dependence on foreign oil or if the money was used for research into renewable sources such as solar and wind energy, and whether using ethanol as a substitute for foreign oil is a good idea. Respondents were asked whether they would approve of building more plants powered by coal to generate electricity, whether using coal, natural gas, nuclear power, and/or renewable sources to generate electricity was a good idea, and whether global warming needs to be a priority for government leaders. They were also asked about the causes of global warming and ways to reduce global warming. Other topics included the firings of United States attorneys by the Justice Department and Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, United States troop levels and withdrawal from Iraq, whether respondents recycle and purchase recycled and/or energy-efficient products, car pool to work or use mass transit, and whether they would seriously consider buying or leasing a hybrid vehicle. Additional topics included the laws covering the sale of handguns, gun control, and the Virginia Tech shooting incident, respondents' own financial situation, horse racing and the Triple Crown races, professional basketball, and athlete's use of steroids. Demographic information includes sex, age, race, education level, household income, marital status, military service, religious preference, frequency of religious attendance, type of residential area (e.g., urban or rural), political party affiliation, political philosophy, voter registration status and participation history, the presence of children under 18 and household members between the ages of 18 and 24, and whether respondents had any children planning to attend a four-year college.

In essence, you could say it turns a leader into a mini-objective, successfully capturing one alive could allow you to use those bonuses to decimate his army, but if they get close enough to rescue him you could be screwed.
Ooo, that's interesting.

Seminoles hand PCHS second loss
PORT CHARLOTTE — In a perfect storm Friday night, one of the area's top teams was at its best. The other was not as sharp as it could have been.
Unfortunately for two-time defending district champion Port Charlotte High School, the latter was true in a 70-45 defeat at the hands of Southeast.

But what I really, really love are their 50% and 75% off racks??! Check out this "crushed" pink t-shirt I scored for $2!!!
In case my husband, who was waiting patiently in the car while I "quickly" ran in to "just grab some pool towels and nothing else" is actually reading this, I know I was on strict in-and-out orders, but this hardly counts it was such a steal. What else would any normal woman do? Plus, isn't it only natural that the last entry for Rae's Spring Top Week contest from Subtle-Tee should be a tee refashion? I think so. All I have to say is good thing I buttered him up with our shredded pork this week, or he might make me wait in the car next time!
Besides the cost and the great "crushed" rosey pink color, this poor shirt didn't have much going for it. It was a few sizes too big and very wide at the bottom....
...the perfect combination for a little low waist shirring.
Also, the extra size gave me plenty of room to trim off the neck and the ends in order to get a enough fabric for some ruffle lining along the collar that I liked on a bunch of other, much-more-than-$2 Target Tees.
Last, but not least, I've been anxiously waiting for the perfect excuse to sew a top with rouched sleeves and what better opportunity than this?
Because the shirt was so big, the sleeves were still slightly long and loose, so I threw in a single row of shirring or rouching right down the center of each sleeve.
I had so much fun designing on the fly, and couldn't stop day dreaming of all the tee refashioning possibilities! Not surprisingly, the last minute spin on the sleeves ended up being one a really great touch and totally brought it all together.
Viola!!! Here it is:
Now this beautiful rosy pink tee has a new feminine twist that is more fitting of its color and naturally gives way to its name- A Rose in my Tee Garden.

Handset integration teams can quickly evaluate product behaviour by monitoring the digital serial bit stream between the RF-IC and BB-IC. Control flow for DigRF v3 interface is analysed using protocol decode technology.
Digital IQ analysis is achieved using the 89601A vector signal analysis package. Analysis of internal operations, as enabled by the BB-IC visibility port, provides correlation of uC and DSP operation to DigRF v3 traffic.
When these capabilities are integrated with RF stimulus and spectrum analysis, handset integrators can characterize the interactions between the RF-IC and the BB-IC to isolate defects and optimize performance.
In addition, these solutions enable RF-IC development teams to evaluate their components independent of the BB-IC.
For transmitter evaluation, signals are created using Signal Studio software and loaded into the logic analyser to stimulate the DigRF v3 interface. The resulting RF signal is captured with an N9020A spectrum analyser so that designers can characterize transmitter behaviour and isolate defects.
For receiver evaluation, an E4438C ESG vector signal generator stimulates the RF-IC. The digital IQ generated by the RF-IC is acquired by the digital acquisition probe and analyzed using vector signal analysis.
Complex RF-IC characteristics like BER can be evaluated by operating the logic analyser, signal generator and spectrum analyser under control of Agilent's Advanced Design System RF EDA software.
BB-IC development teams can capitalise on the power of the Agilent DigRF v3 solutions to evaluate and tune the behaviour of their components.
Using the Agilent N4850A acquisition probe, validation teams can analyse transmitted DigRF v3 control and data traffic. A protocol view of control traffic and vector signal analysis of data traffic enable cross-domain debug.
With the addition of the Agilent N4860A stimulus probe, the receive path on the BB-IC can be exercised. When used in conjunction with analysis of visibility ports on the BB-IC, DigRF v3 traffic can be correlated to uC and DSP operations, giving the user unprecedented insight into device operation.
In summary, the integration of DigRF v3 logic analysis tools and the Agilent RF portfolio provide the cross domain solutions that will enable the rapid deployment of DigRF v3-based products by the wireless industry.

Well, first some other news before the main news. This is so terrible that I neglected to post this anywhere, but I was in my local paper back in July! It was my first real interview and such a very cool thing. A definite high :)
The next big news it that I'll be taking a step away from Papaver Vert for a while. I don't know for how long and this makes me happy not knowing. I've been hemming and hawing over this for a while. Mainly due to a desire to dedicate time creating new designs, exploring and learning more about felting, and finally, to figure out where I want my business to go. But this always seemed so daunting! What if people forget me? (hilarious, right?) What if I lose all momentum and just end up eating chocolate croissants in front of the computer everyday? (this actually sounds pretty good) What if, shoulda coulda woulda??? Aye, the monkey brain. Well, due to an injured back, my active brain was forced to be silenced for a good month and out of this came some clarity and a solid decision. But before all that I have to admit that the whole month was a definite low for me. I was so worried that the pain I had would never go away, and I think it was that fear that made me have a more compassionate view of taking some time to myself. At this point, I'm not even raring to go to start some new work. I'm enjoying working my part time job and actually taking a real break. There's been some swimming, running and zumba involved. As well as more cooking and reading. Oh and more kitty time:
So starting next Tuesday, 8/13, I'll be closing my Etsy shop for an undetermined amount of time. It won't be a goodbye, just a pause. So please do follow me here or on my facebook page to see what I'm up to as I still plan to post. And it may be more kitty photos. Or ONLY kitty photos. Kitty photos go along with taking a break :)

3. Re: OpenGL Error Code 7Colin Brougham-u9E3Ff Jan 25, 2011 7:15 AM (in response to bandgeek8910)
I just encountered this error message and subsequent crash, myself. I'm running the latest nVidia drivers--which seem to be causing other issues as well.
This error/crash seems is reminiscent of the earlier crash that would occur with large images and hardware MPE. I wonder if the new drivers introduced a regression to this behavior.
I can easily reproduce this. I'll post up a project file and image later; hopefully Steve Hoeg will pop in here. He seems to be the guy on-task with these issues
4. Re: OpenGL Error Code 7SteveHoeg Jan 25, 2011 7:32 AM (in response to bandgeek8910)
For people running into this problem, what version of the NVIDIA driver are you using?
5. Re: OpenGL Error Code 7Colin Brougham-u9E3Ff Jan 25, 2011 7:40 AM (in response to SteveHoeg)
I'm using GeForce 266.58, released 01.18.11, on a GTX480 and 5.0.3. I'm going to rollback to 260.99 in a little while, to see if I can replicate it. I've had all kinds of issues since going to these drivers; the "jumpy stills" thread is another issue I hadn't witnessed before.
6. Re: OpenGL Error Code 7Bill Gehrke Jan 25, 2011 8:00 AM (in response to bandgeek8910)
In the mean time while they sort this problem out why don't you roll back to 258.96 (or any other earlier version than that last one where they made immense changes). That is what I have on my editing computer and it is working perfect on my GTX 480 and my GTX 580.
7. Re: OpenGL Error Code 7bandgeek8910 Jan 25, 2011 9:49 AM (in response to bandgeek8910)

8. Re: OpenGL Error Code 7bandgeek8910 Feb 1, 2011 7:05 PM (in response to bandgeek8910)
Still no fix, I will also note that my Photoshop Printing process is quite laggy as well.
9. Re: OpenGL Error Code 7Colin Brougham Feb 1, 2011 7:25 PM (in response to bandgeek8910)
Hopefully Steve won't mind me mentioning, but I sent him a project file and some images that were triggering the crash, and it seems that he had cornered the issue. Without going into specifics--mainly because I don't know any specifics--this appears to be related to large images that, when displayed using hardware MPE and CUDA acceleration, fill up the memory of the GPU and eventually crash the software. The workaround, beyond not using hardware MPE, is to resize your images.
Can you pinpoint the part of your project that causes the problem? If it's with an image file, you might try resizing it in Photoshop or similar; lowering the DPI and changing the frame size will help this. If it's with a video clip, that might be a different issue altogether and you should probably report the issue with as much detail as possible.
10. Re: OpenGL Error Code 7the_wine_snob Feb 1, 2011 8:23 PM (in response to Colin Brougham)
Perhaps a case of doing things, as they needed to be done in earlier versions - Scaling overly large stills in PS, prior to Import?
Just thinking here,
11. Re: OpenGL Error Code 7Colin Brougham Feb 1, 2011 8:32 PM (in response to the_wine_snob)
Maybe... but this was a bug, not a matter of practice or performance.
12. Re: OpenGL Error Code 7bandgeek8910 Feb 13, 2011 3:29 PM (in response to bandgeek8910)
Well it turns out the issue must of been due to the fact I was working with large pictures. I just did a project with just video from a T2i and it worked just fine.
However I have discovered a issue where if I am watching a video (you tube, Vimeo, Windows Media Player, VLC) and I switch into full screen mode, the display turns black for ab out 5 seconds. Same thing happens when i swtich from full screen to normal windowd. And in cases where I am watching via online, when I switch from full screen to normal, the video does not scale back down, so I only see whatever fits in the normal size of the frame. Flash player is updated to the latest version.
Here is an example.
I am not really expecting an answer to this as I know the main issue of the thread has been 'solved' I thought I would post this anyway.

or work on resizing it in the
timeling it says the the exact same thing you have. I have to shutdown premiere pro via control panel. What the heck!
I hope Nvidia comes up with a new driver to fix this or adobe adresses this as and update. I'm getting frustrated with my projects..
17. Re: OpenGL Error Code 7stevesheridan May 13, 2011 12:43 PM (in response to sirira2000)
I went back to Ver. 259.81 drivers and it seems to have taken care of the problem. I'm working on a project now that has over a hundred and fifty 12 megapixel stills in it.
18. Re: OpenGL Error Code 7mikeklar Jun 22, 2011 9:46 AM (in response to Todd_Kopriva)
The same issue has just arisen on my system after installing the latest upgrade of GeForce GTX 580 driver to version: 275.33, and Premiere Pro CS 5.5
This problem did not occur prior to the latest video driver installation.
My basic system parameters:
CPU i7 950
14TB available in a RAID configuration (8 HDs) via dedicated RAID card
250GB SSD system drive
Video card GTX 580
Granted, I do have a number of large still images stacked three layers deep above the video. Per suggestions in this thread I will resize them smaller and hopefully this will remmedy the problem for now.
Glad to see others are also having this problem and hopefully between Adobe and NVidia something will be done to remedy it soon.
19. Re: OpenGL Error Code 73dmus Jul 6, 2011 11:54 PM (in response to Todd_Kopriva)
I thought by downscaling my images I had resolved (or at least worked around) the issue, but I still get the dreaded error 7 OpenGL error when I work with still images (scrubbing the timeline, scaling, positioning etc). Not directly, but generally within 10 minutes or so (only when working with still images). I've got a 460GTX SE with the latest NVIDIA drivers (275.33) for WIndows 7 64bit. Picture size is 2448 * 3696, standard JPG. I also tried an older NVIDIA driver (263.09) but that didn't help.
Is Adobe still working with NVIDIA to resolve the issue? (sorry had erroneously posted a similar message in another topic, but that topic was about a different OpenGL error)
20. Re: OpenGL Error Code 73dmus Jul 7, 2011 10:39 AM (in response to 3dmus)
Also - would it help at all if I would open a ticket/report a bug? If so, what would be the most appropriate place? Or is there already an open ticket for this?
21. Re: OpenGL Error Code 7Colin Brougham Jul 7, 2011 11:17 AM (in response to 3dmus)
What is the DPI of your images? Yes, I know that DPI does not matter as far as video is concerned--only pixel dimensions do--but when it comes to CUDA acceleration, it can make a difference.
If they're digital camera photos at something like 180DPI, I've found that decreasing to 72DPI while maintaining the raw pixel dimensions helped.
22. Re: OpenGL Error Code 73dmus Jul 7, 2011 11:25 AM (in response to Colin Brougham)
Ah - that's an interesting one, Thanks for the suggestion Colin. The dpi for my resized images is 240 and for my original ones 300. I will definitely try your suggestion.
23. Re: OpenGL Error Code 7Colin Brougham Jul 7, 2011 11:37 AM (in response to 3dmus)
Yeah, 240DPI is probably the issue; as long as you maintain the pixel dimensions when you drop to 72DPI, you'll get no quality difference in Premiere Pro. DPI is for printing.
24. Re: OpenGL Error Code 73dmus Jul 7, 2011 12:59 PM (in response to Colin Brougham)
Just going through some batch conversion in Photoshop to get to new DPI (and I realise this is not the right forum to bring this up!); recorded my resize + change DPI action for a landscape photo and then batch processed all....only to find out that all landscape ones are fine, but portrait ones aren't (for some reason PS treats them differently wrt my action)....grrrrr...anyways, will check the PS forum.
25. Re: OpenGL Error Code 7{KMS} Jul 7, 2011 4:47 PM (in response to 3dmus)
Has lowering the DPI worked out for you? Just courious. Thanks.
26. Re: OpenGL Error Code 7mikeklar Jul 7, 2011 8:12 PM (in response to {KMS})
Forgive my butting here.
In my case (per a previous entry in this thread) changing the ppi to 120 did the trick on three layers of still images above the video clips.
27. Re: OpenGL Error Code 73dmus Jul 8, 2011 12:32 AM (in response to {KMS})
Hi Kevin - no, unfortunately not. I just batch converted to 100dpi and had another crash within 10 minutes of editing. Now b/c of the way PS was somehow not able to do a proper batch job on both portrait and landscape images at the same time, I reverted to Irfanview to do the batch conversion. Interestingly, Photoshop doesn't recognise the new dpi (still sees it as 300), whereas other programs (Irfanview, Windows file properties, Photoline, Paint.NET) all now see it as 100dpi. Not sure if this makes a difference.
So far though it's really disappointing; been through various NVIDIA driver versions, rescaling, changing DPI, but still crashing. This really puts a damper on the whole editing experience. Well, tbh, it's pointless really; a crash every 10 minutes makes it unworkable. :-( I wish Adobe and NVIDIA would sort this out...
28. Re: OpenGL Error Code 7Colin Brougham Jul 8, 2011 5:30 AM (in response to 3dmus)
Unfortunately, there is only so much that can be done, as I've come to learn. What you're slamming into is the limitations of the hardware: specifically, the memory on the GPU. That's why this issue only comes to bear when you're in GPU accelerated rendering mode, and not software. I will agree that Premiere Pro should not keel over in these instances, but I don't know if this crash is caused by a fault in PPro or in the Nvidia drivers.
To be perfectly honest, 95% of my issues with CS5 and now CS5.5 (which I can crash at will) are due to GPU rendering. You can overwhelm the GPU without knowing that you're doing it, and then PPro goes *poof*. I've asked that the software be a little more realistic about what it can and can't do in this regard, and gear down where necessary. Obviously, this is relatively new technology--GPU-accelerated rendering in PPro, I mean--so the kinks are still being worked out.
Are the crashes repeatable? I mean, can you pass the same section in your sequence and have this happen every time, or is it at random points and places in the sequence? If it's at specific points, what is different about those sections? Are there multiple tracks and graphics or effects at those points? The issues I've had with CS5.5 have been with sections that have a few too many layers, typically with large/HD graphics. In my case, I've actually been able to reproduce crashes with synthetics (e.g. black video or color bars) replacing the original clips! That indicates that it's not the media itself, but the compounded effect of the size and number of tracks at a particular section of the sequence.
29. Re: OpenGL Error Code 73dmus Jul 8, 2011 6:39 AM (in response to Colin Brougham)
Thanks for your reply Colin. It's a tad random for me; no specific points in the sequence. Only consistency I can see is that it happens with still images and only when manipulating (scaling/positioning, adding an effect etc). But I would like indeed that it would just drop frames, or revert to software only mode when it would encounter this. I take it that this issue could occur not just with a "hacked" CUDA card, but also with the officially supported ones, correct? If that's the case, I would expect Adobe and/or NVIDIA to fix this (in the sense that it wouldn't lead to a total crash anymore at least).
I had a similar OpenGL issue with some non-Adobe software (Hitfilm from the FXhome guys, just released a couple of weeks ago), but I've been told that they are actively working with the NVIDIA guys to provide a fix (and in the mean time, going back to an earlier driver actually fixes the issue). At least there I have the feeling that something is being done (the lead developer even called me to find a solution for my issue)...
30. Re: OpenGL Error Code 7Colin Brougham Jul 8, 2011 6:50 AM (in response to 3dmus)
Only consistency I can see is that it happens with still images and only when manipulating (scaling/positioning, adding an effect etc).
Ah, interesting. Now that I think about it, that's what was happening when I was originally encountering the OpenGL crashes. Playback was OK; it wasn't until I moved a photo--or even just selected it--that I experienced the crash. Let me try and remember where I reported/wrote that up...
Are there specific photos that cause it? When it was happening to me, a photo at 180DPI (can't recall the dimensions) would cause the crash, but a photo at 240DPI was fine Tweaking the crashy photo "fixed" the problem (with that photo, at least), and it was fine then. Again, I'll see what I can find on that...
I've got a "hacked" GTX480, but in my communication with the engineers on this issue, that wasn't the problem; it was the amount of memory on the GPU and how it was being used. Steve Hoeg is one of the guys that deals with this particular facet with Premiere Pro, but Adobe is on break this week; I suspect that if this is floating near the top of the thread stack that he might pop in with some insights next week.
BTW, are you using CS5 or CS5.5?
31. Re: OpenGL Error Code 73dmus Jul 8, 2011 6:55 AM (in response to Colin Brougham)
Thanks again Colin - they are all Nikon D7000 photos, converted from RAW to JPG by Adobe RAW. My experience seems to be (but can be purely coincidental) that it crashes more with landscape oriented ones? But, it definitely happened with originally sized ones, resized (75%) and ones where I lowered the DPI (to 100).
Very odd that in your case it crashed with 180, but not with 240? Still don't really understand how DPI can make a difference btw as the image size doesn't change when you stick with the same pixel dimensions...then again...I'm not a programmer!
Will try to keep this thread alive so that Steve will spot it! Thx for the pointer.
32. Re: OpenGL Error Code 7Colin Brougham Jul 8, 2011 7:31 AM (in response to 3dmus)
Because I got curious about what the history of this issue or other similar GPU-concerned crashes has been, or at least my experience with it, I went digging through old threads and correspondence.
Here's a thread from just over a year ago (what a coinkydink!) where I first encountered the issue, and how I worked around it: Re: Large Images + MPE Hardware = Decreased Performance? That was my first experience with this, and that was in 5.0.1; Steve H confirmed the issue, and the fix was in 5.0.2 (apparently).
Then, I started getting the "OpenGL Error Code 7" error and crash; that's me up above in a slightly different form Again, communicated with Steve, but since that was in 5.0.3 and that's the last update that's likely coming for CS5, I suspect this is an issue that will remain in CS5.
While I haven't had an "OpenGL Error Code 7" crash in CS5.5, I have come across other crashing scenarios that seem to be GPU-related. Unfortunately, I think this is kind of a moving target; types and amount of media can influence it, and the user's hardware setup and the GPU drivers can be factors as well. Until all the bugs get squashed (fingers crossed), we're left to just figure out workarounds. I'm not sure why lowering the DPI isn't working for you, but you might also try changing the format--perhaps save as a TIF or PSD and see what happens then.
While DPI in video doesn't mean anything, I think it is a factor here because it determines the amount of memory that is required to decompress and display an image. If you haven't yet, check out Todd's post, maximum dimensions in Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 and CS5.5 « Premiere Pro work area, to understand a bit more about why image dimensions (and potentially DPI) can be an issue with GPU acceleration.
Not sure if that provides any relief...
33. Re: OpenGL Error Code 73dmus Jul 10, 2011 3:02 AM (in response to Colin Brougham)
Thanks Colin, an interesting read. Yes, I had checked out the article on picture dimensions. I am actually on CS5.5, so am hoping that it can at least still be resolved in the CS5.5 lifespan (or at least it not leading to a total crash anymore). I still don't know however how/where I can submit a crash report (I'm assuming that PP creates some kind of error log?). Will try your suggestion on different picture formats and see if that makes a difference. In the mean time I just stopped using PP for any real work :-( I'm lucky that my livelihood doesn't depend on it!!
But thanks again for taking the time to try to help me out, really much appreciated!
34. Re: OpenGL Error Code 73dmus Jul 11, 2011 9:41 AM (in response to 3dmus)
Apologies for bumping, but am hoping that Steve Hoeg could chip in on this issue.
35. Re: OpenGL Error Code 7SteveHoeg Jul 11, 2011 9:48 AM (in response to 3dmus)
Can you post or send to me a test project demonstrating the issue? We've fixed similar issues in the past but I'm not surprised that there are more.
36. Re: OpenGL Error Code 73dmus Jul 11, 2011 9:54 AM (in response to SteveHoeg)
Hi Steve - sure, can do. Not having done this before, how do I go about this? I'm assuming I need to include the media files too & then zip the bunch and post it to some file sharing type site?
Just to be clear though; it only crashes whils manipulating/editing the stills (at least so far), not when just playing from the timeline.
37. Re: OpenGL Error Code 7Colin Brougham Jul 11, 2011 10:00 AM (in response to 3dmus)
See? Told ya we'd get his attention
Regarding the project file: yep, just grab your project file and zip it up with a couple of the images that cause the problem. I usually duplicate the project and whittle out all the non-essential stuff. Be sure to send the original images, though, since those are what cause the crash. Adding sequence markers with details about how to reproduce the crash helps, too.
(PS: Thanks, Steve!)
38. Re: OpenGL Error Code 73dmus Jul 12, 2011 8:03 AM (in response to Colin Brougham)
You were right! Many thanks again :-)
Weird thing is - have tried to make it crash with a project and now I've been unable to (tried for 30mins or so). Typical! Don't think anything changed on my system though, so it may well be a coincidence. Will try harder and then send the project files.
39. Re: OpenGL Error Code 7Colin Brougham Jul 12, 2011 8:17 AM (in response to 3dmus)
Ah, yes--bug squashing ain't easy
What driver version are you using now? Might have something to do with it...
FWIW, I haven't seen this OGL Error Code 7 thing since CS5...

Final Regular Season Meet
NEW HAVEN, Conn. – Yale hosted the last regular meet of the season on a cold, rainy Sunday. It was the last home meet for the seniors. Most of the Bulldogs who competed at Penn Relays in the past few days did not compete on Sunday. Many schools such as So. Connecticut State, Sacred Heart, and Ivy League rivals Dartmouth and Columbia came to the meet.
In field events, freshman Antonia Renker finished 10th in the discus throw (35.21m). In the pole vault, freshman Jenna Poggi finished eighth (3.40m) and senior Bailey Carroll was 14th (3.25m). Junior Eve King was 15th in the long jump (4.78m) and sophomore Micha'le Simmons was 12th in the triple jump (10.10m). In the high jump junior Emily Standish was sixth (1.60m) and King was 11th (1.45m). In the javelin King and freshman Emily Anderberg were 16th and 17th respectively.
Freshman Dakota McCoy finished third in the 400-meter hurdles (1:05.24), and eighth in the 100-meter hurdles (15.83).
In the sprints, several Bulldogs competed very well. In the 100-meter dash sophomore Marieme Mbaye finished second in12.51, and sophomore Emily Shulan finished fourth in 12.73. In the 200-meter dash, sophomore Emily Shulan was second (26.02) and Mbaye was fourth (26.29).
Freshman Nihal Kayali had a great race in the 800-meter run to finish second in 2:15.83, and freshman Caitlin Hudson finished ninth in 2:22.34.
Many Bulldogs raced in the 1,500-meter run, and several finished in a pack from third to sixth: freshman Elizabeth Marvin (4:43.93), sophomore Jennifer Downing (4:46.13), freshman Victoria Flannery (4:47.30) and sophomore Madeline Adams (4:48.27). Sophomore Jocelyn Rodriguez competed in the 3000-meter run and finished ninth (10:57.13).
Yale performed very well in the relays. The 4x100-meter team finished first in 47.32 and the 4x400-meter relay team finished second in their competition in 4:03.18.
The Bulldogs will be competing two weeks from now at the Heptagonal Championships at Princeton May 8 and 9.

Band Concert Postponed
PLAINVIEW – The Pioneer Band's indoor marching show "A Blast from the Past," has been moved to Thursday, Nov. 3, at 7:30 p.m. in Wayland Baptist University's Harral Auditorium. Admission is free and open to the public.
The indoor marching show is a new venture for the band and will feature segments of the music that the band will be performing during its trip to Russia in May, 2006. The show is based on the traveling musical/theatrical group Blast.
The band will open with a traditional cadence by the drum line and the school song, the same sequence it will use when marching in Red Square for the Russian Victory Day celebration.
The performance will include several other pieces. The audience will be given more information on the band's invitation to perform in Russia. Band members will also present information concerning many of the cultural and ministerial opportunities available while in Russia before concluding the evening with their signature tune People Need the Lord.
The band will accept donation to help offset expenses for the trip.

Happy Birthday to Us!
125 years ago today, January 4th, 1894, a group of businessmen (it was 1894) rang in the new year by creating the Norwood Business Association. The initial purpose of the group was to attract business to the young and growing town of Norwood. Much of the NBA's early work focused on improving the infrastructure of the community. The organization advocated for things like electric lights, electric rail service, concrete sidewalks and streets; all vital to attracting business. 125 years later we still serve as an advocate for improved infrastructure and amenities that make our communities desirable locations for businesses.

Making a Difference
Chamber members make a difference in our communities in a variety of ways. First and foremost they provide products and services that people need and want for their own personal or business reasons. They create jobs that employ thousands of local people. They provide needed tax revenue to our communities. But most do much more than that through their community support of local organizations, non-profits, sports groups, cultural institutions and many others. Read more »
NVCC Opposes Nurse Staffing Question
The Neponset Valley Chamber of Commerce, whose members include Norwood Hospital and Brigham and Women's/Mass General Health Center along with numerous eldercare centers, rehabilitation facilities, and doctor's offices, has joined the Coalition to Protect Patient Safety in opposition to the proposed nurse staffing ballot question. After reviewing the ballot question and the anticipated impacts it would have on area medical facilities, patients and consumers, the Chamber board voted to oppose the question. There is also concern about legislating, by popular vote, what is essentially a human resources issue. The result being staffing levels being determined by government mandate in a one size fits all manner. Read more »
Getting From Here to There
For most of us getting to work is a fairly easy task. Typically, if we work in the region, we drive and park in a nearby lot. For those commuting to Boston it can it bit more cumbersome whether its taking the commuter rail or driving through the inevitable traffic. However, there is a reasonably large population of people who commute into our region to work, for whom the journey can be not only lengthy, but somewhat dangerous. Many workers come to the area to work at retail locations like Legacy Place, Patriot Place, The Mall at Walpole and hotels and restaurants along Route 1. The MBTA's 34E bus brings people from Boston to the Neponset Valley along Route 1A. Getting from Route 1A to employer locations on Route 1 can be tricky as there are no connections for commuters, other than walking. In the winter time, with snowy roads, this can be a nuisance at best and hazardous at worst. Read more »

Let's Do Business - Locally
"This year, buy from the people who have your kid's back." I saw this in a blog I read recently about shopping locally during the holiday season. It makes a strong case for supporting local businesses. The people who have your kid's back are the businesses whose name you read on the back of their shirts on the Little League and soccer fields, at the ice hockey rinks, in the gyms and anywhere else our kids may be involved in sports or other activities for that matter. Without local business support, many of these activities either wouldn't exist or would be prohibitively expensive, leaving many kids on the sidelines. Read more »
Meet Your Local Officials
This week's Boston Business Journal had a feature story on Chambers of Commerce in Massachusetts. In it, several Chambers were interviewed and asked how they deal with changing dynamics in the business community. Cited were a variety of external factors such as the rise of online retailers versus traditional brick and mortar storefronts. Social media has opened a variety of opportunities for networking that never existed before. An aging workforce is beginning to challenge the ability of businesses to fill jobs, in particular those requiring technical skills. Read more »

We will fix the problem and try again soon so that we may be able to share this information with you.

Mass. Legislators Take up Paid Leave Bills
Do you know what Paid Family and Medical Leave will do to your business? Earlier this week I participated in a conference call with Chambers, business groups and employers from across the state regarding the Paid Family and Medical Leave Bills being considered on Beacon Hill. The call was hosted by Associated Industries of Massachusetts (AIM) and shed light on what is contained in the bills and how they would impact Massachusetts businesses. The following information provided by AIM explains the bills. The Senate paid leave bill creates a new Massachusetts law establishing the right for employees, certain state independent contractors providing family childcare, personal care attendants, and self-employed individuals to receive job protected paid family and paid medical leave under certain circumstances.
