Summary View help for Summary
The Boys Town Study of Youth Development surveyed 3,065 students in junior high and high schools in the Midwestern United States (predominantly in Nebraska and Iowa) in the mid-1970s. The study focused on adolescent substance use and deviant behavior, school aspirations, and parental and friendship relationships. Additional topics included opinions toward, influences for or against, and legal ramifications of substance use, drug/alcohol education programs and the availability and perceived difficulty in obtaining drugs and or alcohol. Respondents were asked whether they had used tobacco, alcohol, marijuana, stimulants, depressants, and stronger drugs such as narcotics and psychedelics, the frequency and quantity of use, effects they felt using a substance for the first time, and the usual effects they felt if used more than once. Those who had never used any substances were asked about their perceived effects of use. Delinquent behavior engaged in by the respondents such as truancy issues, running away from home, and theft, as well as behavior while under the influence of substances such as fighting, being stopped by the police, and being in an accident were also asked about. Demographic information includes age, sex, religion, religiosity, grade point average, and grade level.

Study Purpose View help for Study Purpose
To test a social learning explanation of drinking and drug behavior.
Sample View help for Sample
No attempt was made to get a probability sample or insure that the sample was regionally or nationally representative. Sampling design involved purposive selection of several school districts of varying sizes and demographic characteristics located in communities ranging from rural to urban. In smaller districts, sampled from each secondary school; in larger districts selected junior and senior high schools. Classrooms served as clusters, and in consultation with principal, PI's sampled at random (but purposively to give a cross-section of the school population) 2-3 classrooms per grade level from among the required courses or from among the general enrollment classes in those grades. The number of classes sampled depended on class size, with an aim toward including enough classes to include responses from at least 10% of total school enrollment or a minimum of 100 respondents per school, whichever was greater.

Richard Franklin was a hard worker, proud father and devoted husband. And for 11 years, he was Santa Claus.
Richard Franklin was a hard worker, proud father and devoted husband. And for 11 years, he was Santa Claus.
The Bessemer City man who once served as Gaston Mall�s Santa Claus died Sunday at age 83. �He fought the cancer battle for several years now. He finally lost that battle,� said Franklin�s son, Jo-D Franklin.
Jo-D Franklin remembers his father�s devotion to his annual duty of playing Santa. Retired from Norfolk Southern Railroad, Richard Franklin had a friend who was a photographer. That photographer persuaded him to pose as Santa for a few photos at the old mall that sat along Cox Road near Interstate 85.
�He got him to come down and do a few pictures, and it just kind of led into it,� Jo-D Franklin said.
His father would start the season by putting on the red suit and riding to the mall on a fire engine. His remembers how his Richard Franklin would embrace the experience, sometimes ministering to families at the same time.
�Santa� gave ample time to other children who wanted to pass along their Christmas lists. �He would go the hospital and see the kids on Christmas Eve before coming home to his family,� Jo-D Franklin said.
Richard Franklin was a man of devotion, said to his son. He served four years in the Air Force and was a deacon at First Baptist Church in Bessemer City. He was married to his wife, Margaret, for 59 years. She died two years ago.
Richard Franklin was Santa for more than a decade. He stepped down from the position in 2007 when he was diagnosed with lung cancer. The cancer affected his vocal chords and changed his voice.
Jo-D Franklin said his father didn�t want to scare the children, so he stopped playing the part of Santa. But Bessemer City kids still claimed their own personal Kris Kringle. The year Richard Franklin retired from the position, he got envelopes full of Santa letters from children at the local elementary school. That meant a lot, says his son.
Richard Franklin spent the last year of his life in Carolina Care Center in Cherryville. Until the end, he enjoyed spending time with his family during visits, and he still embraced the chance to bring joy to children at Christmas time.
Even last December, a few of the workers at the nursing home brought their children to see Santa. Franklin said his father gladly put on the persona for his young audience. �My dad was a rough old railroad guy but when he put on that red suit everything changed,� he said.
Franklin�s funeral will be at 1 p.m. Thursday at First Baptist Church in Bessemer City.

We have a subscription to MLB.tv, one that we use the same way we use, say, a miniature tube of toothpaste. It's only needed when we're on the road, it's never quite the brand we like, but it works in a pinch despite its obvious inferiority to the real thing. (It also ends up staining our suitcase, but perhaps that's a different problem.)
Anyway, MLB.tv is turning five years old this weekend, and boy, does MLB.com have a treat for you. They're ... giving away a free game! It's the Yankees, of course. And it's not on a Saturday afternoon, because no matter how much money you pay, you can't watch those games.
We might have occasional frustration with MLB.tv, but honestly, if you're the type of person who pretty much always has to have a Cardinals game on — hypothetically — it's certainly useful, if not ideal. Hey, Big Ten Network: This is perhaps something you should look into. We'd absolutely pay for it.

Changed USB port drill holes back to spec
Looked at mini USB port with Dan. Observed that corner drill holes aresupposed to be multiple drills right next to eachother. Decided tochange holes back to specfied radius and ignore long hole for now.
Updated DS2786 footprint in kwoo library
Updated package footprint for DS2786 in kwoo.lbr based on recommendedland placement in datasheet for DFN10 package. DS2786's datasheet listsTDFN10 as its package type but doesn't give placement guidance or auseful package description. Unable to find a datasheet for TDFN10, but...
Increased mini-USB plug drill hole size
Imported MINI-USB- device from Hirose Connectors library into kwoolibrary. In UX60-MB-5S8 package, increased drill hole size on cornerpins from .8 mm to .9 mm. I did not drill out the original too-smallholes on Scoutfly, so I don't know whether this is sufficient or not....
Updated kwoo.lbr with previous kwoo changes
A few months ago, Kevin sent me a new version of kwoo.lbr. Updatedkwoo.lbr with these changes (using the Eagle update command). Also ranupdate in scoutfly.sch. This did not affect the results of erc or drcfor scoutfly.
Finished hooking up new gyroscope.
Connected pitch output of gyroscope to AVR and gave pitch an output LPF.Added optional HPFs to both pitch and yaw outputs. We can just leave thepads empty if we think they won't be useful.
To route the changes, had to squeeze some other stuff. Moved the AVR...
Swapped gyroscope part in schematic.
Replaced old gyroscope part with new one in schematic. Assuming thatpitch output or amplified outputs are undesired. Not using optionalhigh-pass filter on output. Have not yet routed connections to gyroscopeon board.
Began fixing bugs for Scoutfly fixup.
Made several of the changes listed on wiki page ScoutflyUpdate2011. Inparticular:Removed R4 and connected pin 4 on U$3 directly to VCC.Connected VREG_EN to VCC with 10 kOhm resistor (new R4).Changed value of R26 to 100 kOhms....
updated scoutfly and kwoo lbr with dual NPN
updated scoutfly with new jst parts
swapped jst-5 headers from right angle to vertical
changed accessory pin names and moved one to sonar.
added grounded srew holes to scoutfly. for review by kwoo.
changed the value on the accessory detect pin resistor divider to a standard value
added silk, fixed layout bugs
Layout completed. Need to fix silk
Finished layout for steppers and battery/charging contact support circuitry
Floorplan for the new stepper controller
Replaced stepper controller with one that will work for our voltages, fixes to the AVR on the clock and decoupling caps
AVR and BOM layout completed.
Gumstix layout mostly complete, AVR layout started. Some additional notes around the stepper driver on configuration, changes to the SPI header
Removed USB power since it would not work, simplified power area, reordered pins on the level shifters for easier layout.
Removed extraneous pullups from stepper controller
Fixed some pull up/down bugs
Started layout on scoutfly, updated schematic to use gumstix
Copied old atmel version of the scoutfly to the current version
Backed up the scoutfly atmel version in the repo
Fixed issues with non-standard resistor values
Fixed error in smybol for the Power OR controllers where the FET's drain only had 1 out of 6 connections. Finished redoing the floorplan on the Power OR section. Routing done for the top and bottom layers. Only need to do the power plane level now.
Added SPI lines to the wireless chip and the control lines. Replaced standoff terminals with the Sparkfun parts which have better keepouts for the screwheads.
Routed all signal wires out of the ARM. Still need to do final connections. Moved flash jumpers and debug port around to facilitate routing
Finished routing PSU, user buttons, fixed a bug in tolerances in the wireless chip.
Reorganized the I2C pins on the FFC. Routed I2C and the I2C levelshifter. Finished the PSU poly pours except for the VCC pour. The Motor current limiters are laid out except for the VCC connection. Hooked up the wireless chips except SPI. Added a mounting hole for the BOM board.
Some PSU routing, WL chip except external signals is done. Fixed resistor size (package) for the MAX745 battery charger
Routed AVR, motor drivers, JTAG, USB ports, debug UART and some of the decoupling caps across the board.

The QualiGlobe Experience of Production EfficiencyHolm Larsen, Michael; Lynggard, Hans Jørgen B. (København, 2003)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper addresses the issue of using product models to support product lifecycle activities with particular focus on the production phase. The motivation of the research is that products are produced more costly and with longer lead-time than necessary. The paper provides a review of product modelling technologies and approaches, and the overall architecture for the Product State Model (PSM) Environment as a basis for quality monitoring. Especially, the paper focuses on the circumstances prevailing in a one-of-a-kind manufacturing environment like the shipbuilding industry, where product modelling technologies already have proved their worth in the design and engineering phases of shipbuilding and in the operation phase. However, the handling of product information on the shop floor is not yet equally developed. The paper reports from the Brite-Euram project (No. BE97-4510) QualiGlobe focusing on the development activities of the PSM architecture. An example discusses how to handle product related information on the shop floor in a manufacturing company and focuses on how dynamically updated product data can improve control of production activities. This prototype example of welding a joint between two steel plates serves as proof of concept for the PSM architecture. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/6517

the efficacy of institutional discourseZinner Henriksen, Helle; Viborg Andersen, Kim (København, 2003)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: During the mid to late 1990s, shaping diffusion of B2B e-commerce was a key priority for governments and business associations. Viewing e-commerce as the key to continuous economic growth and a vehicle for transformation to the digital economy, national action plans were formulated to accelerate the standard development and adoption of e-commerce. This chapter argues that the Danish EDI Action Plan from 1996 cemented structural problems for the ongoing adoption and diffusion of newer B2B technologies due to a discrepancy between goals and actions, imbalanced partner allocation in standard development and an overwhelming focus on the public sector despite ambitions to fuel the overall business adoption of B2B e-commerce.

Abstract: Ud fra aktionsforskning af faget Informationsbehandling på bachelorprogrammet HA/DØK ved Copenhagen Business School undersøger vi i denne artikel hvilke barriere de studerende oplever i forbindelse med læring af holistisk systemudvikling og hvorfor. Siden 1980'erne har man i (dele af) litteraturen anset den 'gode' systemudvikler for at være en, der kunne fungere som brobygger mellem brugere og programmører og navigere ubesværet inden for og imellem anvendelses- og problemområdet (dvs. mellem brugernes og IT systemets område og opgaver). HA/DØK uddannelsen blev udviklet for at uddanne studerende med brobyggerkompetencer. En summativ kvalitetsvurdering har dog vist, at der eksisterer et misforhold mellem den uddannelsesmæssige intention og de studerendes faktiske læring og eksamenspræstationer på faget Informationsbehandling. Vores undersøgelse af dette misforhold viser, at mens de studerende er gode til at tænke og handle udfra problemområdet,så kæmper alle studerende uanset fagligt niveau med at nå de læringsmål, der omhandler forståelse for og inddragelse af viden om anvendelsesområdet. Vi foreslår, at de studerendes vanskeligheder skyldes, at de pga. HA/DØK studiet tilrettelæggelse allerede er proficiente funktionalister når de starter på Informationsbehandling, mens de i forhold til anvendelsesområdet må betegnes som novicer. Vi opridser forskellige alternativer til at hjælpe de studerende med at overvinde barriererne og/eller opfylde læringsmålene. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/6500

Enriching software process improvement with knowledge managementHansen Hansen, Bo (Frederiksberg, 2009)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Formålet med denne afhandling er at belyse, hvorledes softwarevirksomheder kan forbedre deres udviklingspraksis ved at udnytte deres vidensressourcer bedre. Afhandlingen belyser dette ved at besvare følgende forskningspørgsmål: • Hvorledes kan en softwarevirksomheds videnstyringsstatus bestemmes med henblik på at kunne identificere vidensrelaterede forbedringsområder? • Hvorledes kan forbedringer af sådanne områder planlægges via design og tilpasning af nye organisatoriske tiltag til styrkelse af organisationens læringsmuligheder? • Hvorledes kan sådanne forbedringsinitiativer faciliteres og implementeres for at sikre accept og fortsat udvikling? Afhandlingen er en del af det nationale forskningsprojekt Softwareprocesser og Viden og er udarbejdet som et aktionsforskningsprojekt hos softwarevirksomheden Systematic Software Engineering i Århus. Afhandlingen leverer, foruden forbedringer i den involverede organisation, teoretiske og metodiske bidrag til softwareprocesforbedringsfeltet ved at vise hvorledes teoretisk input fra vidensstyringsfeltet kan integreres i og styrke softwareprocesforbedringsfeltet, samt ved at vise hvorledes komplekse organisatoriske sammenhænge kan belyses ved at anvende en passende og fleksibel portefølje af analyse— og interventionsteknikker. Derudover bidrager afhandlingen med udviklingen af en balanceret teori om vidensstyring i softwareprocesforbedring. Til dette formål introduceres begreberne eksemplarisk og situeret videnstype og normativ og reflektiv processforbedring. Afhandlingen anskueliggør desuden, hvorledes et længerevarende samarbejdsbaseret studie har bidraget med resultater internt i case-organisationen ved at designe og tilpasse en ny projektevalueringsproces, der er baseret på et skifte mod en situeret vidensorganisation ved aktivt at involvere de eksisterende ekspertnetværk i organisationen. Gennem designet af denne ny proces belyses, hvorledes Softwareprocesforbedringsfeltet på et teoretisk niveau styrkes igennem integration af teorier fra beslægtede felter. Afhandlingen viser, hvorledes kulturanalyse og videnskort kan anvendes som softwareprocesforbedringsteknikker. Derudover antyder afhandlingen en balanceret teori om vidensstyring i softwareprocesforbedring, der beskriver betydningen af at søge en ligevægt imellem den herskende organisatoriske videnstype (eksemplarisk vs. situeret) og softwareprocesforbedringsmetode (normativ vs. reflektiv). Slutteligt viser denne afhandling, hvorledes et længerevarende forskningsprojekt, inspireret af aktionsforskning, kan styres og fokuseres igennem anvendelsen af Collaborative Practice Research URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/7902

A Longitudinal Study of Corporate and Organisational Identity DynamicsKjærgaard, Annemette; Morsing, Mette (København, 2005)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Research on identity has raised attention to the importance for managers to align corporate and organisational identity, and to express those identity features that are central, distinct and enduring to strengthen corporate image and reputation among a variety of stakeholders. Drawing from an extensive data collection from two longitudinal studies in the same organisation, Oticon A/S, this study challenges the advantage of an enduring corporate identity by exploring how the dynamics between an organisation's corporate identity and its organisational identity unfolded over time. Following a grounded theoretical approach, a process model is developed to show how the strong corporate identity fluctuated from being productive for the alignment of organisational identity and member identification to being counterproductive during a period of ten years. The paper discusses the implications of endurance of a strong corporate identity, and contrary to prior research we suggest that a strong corporate identity may result in member disidentification. We also suggest that a strong enduring corporate identity may impede organisational development, because top management will disappoint external and internal audiences if a corporate identity change is suggested. The paper concludes by encouraging more longitudinal research to advance knowledge about the complex dynamics of interplay between corporate and organisational identity.

from Think Aloud to Participatory AnalysisNielsen, Janni (København, 2004)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Think Aloud is cost effective, promises access to the user's mind and is the applied usability technique. But "keep talking" is difficult, besides, the multimodal interface is visual not verbal. Eye-tracking seems to get around the verbalisation problem. It captures the visual focus of attention. However, it is expensive, obtrusive and produces huge amount of data. Besides, eye-tracking do not give access to user's mind. Capturing interface/cursor tracking may be cost effective. It is easy to install, data collection is automatic and unobtrusive and replaying the captured recording to the user and probing about her actions and thoughts open for participatory analysis.

Experiences from IndiaSudhanshu, Rai (Frederiksberg, 2009)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper is an outcome of my experience as a team member of the Euro-India Innovation mapping project. The project set out to map India's IT Innovativeness over two years from January 2008-to December 2009. Here I bring to the fore the different methodologies that we reviewed in order to implement the innovation mapping project and our realization that each methodology in itself though useful may not be sufficient to address the complexity of the subject matter due to the vastness of India and its emerging nature. I outline some of the challenges faced by us when designing a methodology for mapping innovation in a large emerging economy. I discuss some solutions and report on how we solved the problem only to be faced with newer challenges. A methodological design is a challenging endeavor in the normal of time, when it comes to doing the same in a large emerging economy the problems becomes compounded. I highlight some of these problems and discuss some solutions in this paper. I conclude this paper with some insights proposing a mix methodology approach has been useful in addressing the challenges of data collection in emerging economies using our Indian experience as a backdrop to our findings.

Enterprise Achitecture versus Total Cost of OwnershipHolm Larsen, Michael; Holck, Jesper; Kühn Pedersen, Mogens (København, 2004)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Abstract: The paper presents an explorative study of Open Source Software (OSS) focusing on the managerial decisions for acquisition of OSS. Based on three case studies we argue that whereas small organizations often may chose adoption of OSS expecting significant cost savings, a major barrier for larger organizations' adoption of OSS lies in the organizations' consolidation of the enterprise architectures, in addition to that OSS will not be adopted before satisfactory delivery and procurement models for OSS are established.

the case of NTT DoCoMoEngel Nielsen, Lars; Mahnke, Volker (København, 2003)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: In recent years, the leading Japanese wireless operator NTT DoCoMo has risen from being largely unknown outside Japan to international fame. Ground-breaking service innovations such as the world's first wireless internet service, I-mode, the world's first third generation wireless service FOMA, as well as the company's successful proliferation of its W-CDMA 3G technologies as the UMTS standard in Europe have generally impressed the troubled telecom industry on its brink to the new era wireless data services. Conversely, much scientism has been aired whether the NTT DoCoMo experience applies to European and US contexts due to differences in e.g. demographics, Internet penetration, and wireless industry structures. To date, these considerations have largely been based on anecdotal reports in trade magazines and an increasing number of case studies focused primarily on the I-mode service (e.g. Mulder and Simpson (2001); Harvard (2000)). Notable, exceptions are Ratliff (2001) and Williamson and Meegan (2002) that however both point to the need for elevating insights on NTT DoCoMo. This working paper sets out to contribute to a more elaborate picture of NTT DoCoMo. The working paper is outlined as follows. Departing from a sketch of DoCoMo's current challenges from the perspective of the CEO Keiji Tachikawa as the financial year 2003 is coming to an end (March 31 2003), a brief introduction to DoCoMo's history and its innovative capabilities initiates the effort to present a more detailed picture of the company. Then, the normal perception of NTT DoCoMo as a de facto monopolist with all dominating market and bargaining power is challenged by means of longitudinal study of the Japanese wireless market's development from 1992 to 2003. During this period, DoCoMo's leadership position as increasingly been challenged by new competitors that emerged from an industry consolidation and regulatory forces. It is found that the nature of competition has shifted from DoCoMo's undisputed dominance to a more dynamic environment signified by intense service innovation based competition. Then, insights are provided as how the NTT DoCoMo competes in its new environment. Three key strategic pillars are analyzed, namely the company's to approaches the (1) orchestrating of innovation with the examples of I-mode, C-mode, and Telematics services, (2) relational challenges with the examples of technology standardization alliances, interfirm relationships with handset providers and internationalization partners, and lastly (3) how new growth avenues are explored.

A case study on collaboration with clients, in community interaction and learning designØrngreen, Rikke N.; Nielsen, Janni; Levinsen, Karin (København, 2004)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Abstract In this paper the Human Computer Interaction (HCI) Research Group reports on the pre-phase of an e-learning project, which was carried out in collaboration with the client. The project involved an initial exploration of the problem spaces, possibilities and challenges for an online accredited Continued Medical Education (CME) programme at the Lundbeck Institute. The CME programme aims at end-users, which are primarily general practitioners, but also specialists (psychiatrist and psychologists), from all over the world. The assumption was that it would be possible to identify and build on resources and competencies already existing in the client organisation. We asked: What is it we know? Uncovering the prerequisites and background of and with the client allowed us concurrently to identify: What do we not know? Working iteratively in collaboration with the client, allowed us to build on existing resources and networks, suggesting a design, which also included end-users community needs and work-context. Our argument is that if a preparation phase both seeks to confirm knowledge and contemplate what is not yet known, giving attention to the context and need of the client (i.e. not only end-users,) then it is possible to build on existing resources within the client organisation, leading to grounding of design decisions and a match between the e-learning environment designed and the capabilities of the client.

A Neo-Institutional Understanding of Change Processes within the Business Press - The Case Sudy of Financial TimesKrogh-Meibom, Frederikke (Frederiksberg, 2008)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This dissertation examines dynamic processes between human actors and technology that encourage institutional change displayed as the emergence of new work practices. The research design is a micro-level analysis of a case study, conducted in 2002 in London at Financial Times under the headline of the co-evolution of institutions and technology. The study seeks to contribute to neo-institutional theory with a more profound understanding of how institutional embedded actors generate new institutional work practices when they interact with new technology. Two work practices have been studied; the work practice of surveillance and the work practice of publishing. These have been observed and studied as they were unfolding themselves at ft.com at Financial Times. The actions of journalists working at ft.com has been the empirical locus of the micro dynamic processes of changes of otherwise well defined and taken-for-granted institutionalized work practices The findings specify how the micro-dynamic mechanisms of change of work practices is related to the interaction of human actors with new technology. The study of how individual human actors institute changes to established work practices through a process of endogenization of technology is the basis for a better understanding of institutional change and its relation to human actors and their use of new technology.

Abstract: The cultural diversity of users of technology challenges our methods for usability evaluation. In this paper we report and compare three ethnographic interview studies of what is a part of a standard (typical) usability test in a company in Mumbai, Beijing and Copenhagen. At each of these three locations, we use structural and contrast questions do a taxonomic and paradigm analysis of a how a company performs a usability test. We find similar parts across the three locations. We also find different results for each location. In Mumbai, most parts of the usability test are not related to the interactive application that is tested, but to differences in user characteristics, test preparation, method, and location. In Copenhagen, considerations about the client´s needs are part of a usability test. In Beijing, the only varying factor is the communication pattern and relation to the user. These results are then contrasted in a cross cultural matrix to identify cultural themes that can help interpret results from existing laboratory research in usability test methods.

Addressing the Procedural Stages of Computer Crime in an Organisational ContextWillison, Robert (København, 2005)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: IS security represents a growing concern for organisations. Although hackers and viruses are often the basis of such concerns, the inside threat of employee computer crime should not be underestimated. From an academic perspective, there are a modest but growing number of texts which examine the 'insider' problem. While attention has been given to the influence on offender actions through deterrent safeguards, there has been a lack of insight into the interactive relationship between offender choices made during the actual perpetration of computer crimes, and the context in which such crimes take place. Knowledge of this relationship would be of obvious interest to practitioners who would aim to manipulate the environment and influence offender choices accordingly. To address this oversight, this paper, therefore, advances two criminological theories which it is argued can be used to examine the stages an offender must go through in order for a crime to be committed i.e. the 'procedural stages' of computer crime. Hence, this paper illustrates how the two theories, entitled the rational choice perspective and situational crime prevention, can be applied to the IS domain, thereby offering a theoretical basis on which to analyse offender choices/behaviour during perpetration. Through such an analysis greater insights may be offered into selecting appropriate safeguards to prevent computer crime. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/6462

Abstract: Abstract: In this paper we present a cost effective and simple procedure for evaluating company web sites. Our assumption is that such sites are places for companies' self-presentation and that customers are readers of these texts. Web site texts with narrative qualities, e.g. scenes, actors, acts, initiate the customers' imagination and narrative mind and hence their decision making. These ideas are investigated in a qualitative study of two companies' self-presentation as future work places for students. The results demonstrate that the students choose the company that has a web site with rich narrative qualities above the company that has a web site with good graphical appearance, but poor narrative qualities. In conclusion, we suggest that user centred evaluation of commercial web sites by using the suggested method can pay attention to deep, narrative structures in both the company's self-presentation and the customers' reading of the web site texts.

Willison, Robert; Siponen, Mikko (København, 2007)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper reviews the IS security literature for the period 1990-2004. More specifically three security journals and the top twenty IS journals were examined. In total 1280 papers were analysed in terms of theories, research methods and research topics. Our research found that 1043 of the papers contained no theory. In addition, almost 1000 of the papers were categorized as 'subjective-argumentative' in terms of methodology, with field experiments, surveys, case studies and action research accounting for less that 10% (8.10%) of all the papers. Fifty nine research topics were identified with fourteen of these topics totaling 71.05% of the articles. This papers offers implications for future research directions on IS security, scholars to publish IS security research, tenure practice, and IS security classification schemas.

The relationship between evaluator and test userClemmensen, Torkil; Goyal, Shivam (København, 2005)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: In this paper, we present the results of a pilot study in Denmark of cross cultural effects on Think Aloud usability testing. We provide an overview of previous research on cross cultural usability evaluation with a special focus on the relationship between the evaluator and the test user. This relation was studied in an experiment with usability testing of a localized clipart application in which eight participants from Denmark and India formed pairs of evaluator-test user. The test users were asked to think aloud and the evaluators' role were to facilitate the test users thinking aloud and hereby identify usability problems with the clipart application. Data on the evaluators' and test users' behaviour were recorded and analyzed by coding and summarizing statistics on these behavioural events. The results show that Think Aloud Usability Test of a localized application is most effectively performed, in terms of number of think aloud events and number of usability problems found, when both the evaluators and the test users are local. These results are however limited to the Danish context and need to be investigated in other cultural settings. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/6474

Abstract: This paper raises themes that are seen as some of the challenges facing the emerging practice and research field of Human Work Interaction Design. The paper has its offset in the discussions and writings that have been dominant within the IFIP Working Group on Human Work Interaction Design (name HWID) through the last two and half years since the commencement of this Working Group. The paper thus provides an introduction to the theory and empirical evidence that lie behind the combination of empirical work studies and interaction design. It also recommends key topics for future research in Human Work Interaction Design. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/7764

About / History
Our History
How It All Began
Duncan Campbell grew up in a low-income neighborhood with a tumultuous family life. After finding success in business he wanted to help kids who grew up in environments like his.
In 1992, The Campbell Institute for Children, founded by Duncan, conducted extensive research to determine the most effective program model to help young children overcome their high-risk status and realize their inherent resilience and potential. The research clearly indicated that the strongest single protective factor a child can have is a close, healthy and sustained relationship with a caring adult, especially an adult who has positive expectations for the child and involves him or her in meaningful activities.
Duncan established Friends of the Children in 1993 in his old neighborhood. Friends of the Children began with just three salaried, professional mentors called Friends and 24 children. By 2014, Friends of the Children had grown to employ hundreds of Friends who serve thousands of children in cities including Boston, New York, Seattle, Portland, Klamath Falls, Tampa Bay, and Cornwall (UK). These children learn the skills and perspective they need to change their stories.

|Bactrian camel
|Scientific classification
Linnaeus, 1758
Camels are a mammal of the Camelidae family. Camels form the genus Camelus. They are also called Afro-Asiatic Camelids. There are two living species of camels. Camels have existed on Earth since prehistoric times.[2]
Habitat and adaptation[change | change source]
Camels live in deserts, where it is hot and dry. Camels have adapted and found ways to help them survive in deserts. They have a thick coat of hair that protects them from the heat in the day, and keeps them warm at night. Their large feet spreads their weight on the sand when they are walking. When there is food and water, a camel can eat and drink large amounts of it and store it as fat in the hump. Then, when there is no food or water, the camel uses the fat for energy, and the hump becomes small and soft. A camel's waste contains very little water. Even the water from the camel's breath flows back into its mouth. The camels have bushy eyebrows that don't let the sand go in their eyes in a sandstorm. It has a long slender neck in order to reach high leaves such as palm trees, and rubbery patches on the belly and knees to protect the skin when kneeling and sitting on the hot sand. These form after five years of age.
A camel has a naturally adapted temperature regulation - it can change its bodily temperature by six degrees Celsius either way. It has two sets of eyelashes, closing muscles in the nasal passages with slited nostrils, hairy ears and tough, leathery skin to protect the camels skin in vital emergencies such as a sandstorm. It has thick rubbery lips to eat dry, prickly plants and a large, haired tail to swat pests such as mosquitos and flies.
The toes are large black, which help it to jump in the deep desert sand. There are two types of camels: the Dromedary and the Bacterian. The dromedary has one hump while the bacterian has two.[3]
Life[change | change source]
Camels live in groups, with one male, many females, and their young calves or calf. They are animals that use their hooves.
Reproduction[change | change source]
An unborn camel gestates about 9 to 11 months. There is usually one calf per birth. A camel calf can run only a few hours after it is born. Calves are weaned when they are about 1 year old.
Diet[change | change source]
In the desert, people feed camels with grass, grains, wheat and oats. When camels are travelling in the desert, food is often very hard to find. So the animal might have to live on dried leaves, seeds, and thorny twigs (without hurting their mouths). If there is not any regular food, camels will eat anything:, leather, even their owner's tent.
Digestion[change | change source]
Camels are ruminants but camels do not chew their food very well before swallowing. The first stomach stores the food that is not completely chewed. Later, this food (or cud) returns to the camel's mouth, and the camel chews it again. Then the camel swallows the cud and it goes to the other parts of the stomach to be completely digested.
Camels and humans[change | change source]
Camels have been domesticated by humans for about 5000 years. They are used for riding and to carry things, and for meat, milk and wool.
As domesticated animals they are used in Africa, Asia, and since the 19th century also in Australia. About 900-1000 wild Bactrian Camels still live in China, Tibetan Plateau and Mongolia. There are no wild Dromedaries anymore, but there are escaped domestic Dromedaries in Australia. Today there are about 50,000 Dromedaries living wild in the Outback in Australia.
A Dromedary and a Bactrian Camel can have hybrid children that are called Tulus or Bukhts. These hybrids are larger than the Dromedary or Bactrian Camel and have either one long hump or one small and one big hump.
When a camel calf reaches one year of age, the owner often teaches it to stand and kneel on command. They also learn to carry small, light packs around. As they grow older, the size of the pack also increases.

Manufacturer: Ajanta Pharma
Substance: Sildenafil Citrate
Pack: 100 tabs (100 mg/tab)
What is Kamagra Gold?
Kamagra Gold is produced by Ajanta Pharma. Its active ingredient is Sildenafil.
Kamagra Gold is a drug indicated for the treatment of erectile dysfunction in males. It may also be used for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension, but it is a very popular drug used for the treatment of erectile dysfunction. It is a drug intended for oral administration, which makes it easy to administer and accessible for all ages, except adults younger than 18 years old. Sildenafil takes part from the class of drugs called phosphodiesterase inhibitors and is very similar in action with other phosphodiesterase inhibitors such as tadalafil and others. What we need to know about sildenafil is that it treats erectile dysfunction by relaxing the muscles and stimulating the blood flow to the penis during erection. Sildenafil is well tolerated by most of the users, and it is a very safe drug.
Possible side effects with Kamagra Gold
Like in case of other phosphodiesterase inhibitors, sildenafil may cause side effects. Generally, these are mild and transient. Sildenafil is also safe when used for an extended period of time. The side effects that may occur while using sildenafil are as follows:
• Nausea and vomiting;
• Diarrhea;
• Headache;
• Dizziness;
• Stomach upset.
• Indigestion;
• Chest pain;
• Elevation in cardiovascular pressure.
Indications of use and dosage
Kamagra Gold comes in form of tablets of either 25.5mg or 100mg. It is easy to administer and to follow the indications of use. It is usually recommended to take the drug at least one hour before sexual activity, no more than once a day. The tablet may be taken with or without food. However, it is not indicated to administer the tablet with a high-fat meal, because in this case it might take longer for the medicine to start acting. It is indicated to take the drug no more than once per day due to the fact that sildenafil acts for period of 6-8 hours and it has to be taken at least one hour before sexual activity. Do not take the drug more often than indicated or in higher doses. Even if it is considered a safe drug, it may not be so beneficial in high doses in males with pre-existent cardiovascular diseases, especially in males over 55 years old. Another important thing to take into consideration is quantity of the drug contained in each tablet. As we already mentioned, sildenafil is available in either 25.5mg or 100mg tablets. Therefore, exercise caution to the dosage and make sure you are not prone to any side effects.

Steroids are so popular, that even the general fitness and nutritional principles have changed significantly with the use of steroids. If you ask yourself how do steroids work on the body to increase the muscle mass, then the answer is the following: anabolic steroids...
Bodybuilding represents the practice and use of progressive resistance exercises to build musculature. In other words, it is the practice of developing strength and promoting physical culture. While many people consider competitive bodybuilding as an obscure way of life, for the people who practice it, bodybuilding has become a lifestyle.
Anabolic steroids are performance enhancing drugs that are used to increase the muscle mass and strength and improve the physical performance. Steroids come in various forms and carry different traits. Considering this fact steroids should be administered following a certain cycle.
Steroids sachets are little packages that contain anabolic steroid. In other words, it is a new form of packing the steroid. Generally the sachets contain from 2ml to 5 ml of steroid, which is very handy and can be used as a single dose for many steroids.
One of the most common issues when it comes to the use of steroids is: where do I buy them? The concern of buying steroids is well justified considering the fact that in some countries the purchase of anabolic steroid is very strict; for example in United States these drugs are included in the controlled substances list,

Alex Halliday necesitaba un nuevo diseño de página web y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 32 diseños de 12 diseñadores freelance.
socialGO is a service which allows groups to create their own private social network in under 5 minutes. We are looking for templates for our system - 30 winners will be selected.
We want some JPEG designs to be created for templates based on the constrains below. The main job you will have is creating cool header graphics and body backgrounds. These can be simple gradients and complimentary colours.
We are looking for 30 templates initially. You will need to enter 6 variations of your template to be selected as a winner.
Unlike some sites, we currently do not support complete changes of
the template.
The 5 areas which you will be able to change are :
- Primary colour
- Primary text colour (must work on top of primary colour)
- Secondary colour
- Text colour (must work on top of secondary colour)
- Header background image (This is where the real creativity happens)
- Body background image (Again here is where the additional creativity happens)To create the base template for your header backgrounds to sit on i
have created a video walkthrough of the site and explanation of how you
can use photoshop to emulate the design system we have created :
You can see some examples of designs which where made a few weeks ago plus the template jpg which i talk about in the video:
Examples of good designs would those that would appeal to the following groups :
Sports teams, schools, businesses, generic professional organizations, charities and also some funky illustrations would also be great!
Textures for the header and background must loop as they will be tilled in the background.
The user's network name needs to fit (in the header) either left, centered or right
justified so there needs to be space for this and the primary text
colour must be readable on the header background in one of those
No text in the headers, not too much photography.
No copywrited material.

Tea Thermometer Recommendations
I've been wrestling with which thermometer to buy myself (surprisingly hard to find many that fit all the requirements—beeps when ready to steep, FAST read, digital, maintains accuracy, not wildly expensive, won't fall apart immediately, battery life decent) and David's was high on the list because it beeps and it's decently priced. I appreciate the details you've provided Rachel (they don't have much in the way of specs on the website, alas). What kind of battery does it take, do you know?
For additional info see: http://steepster.com/teas/davidstea/36677-thermometer-and-timer
or DAVIDsTEA 1-888-873-0006
I have and like the Davids tea thermometer…..Cant beat the price
"What kind of battery does it take, do you know?"
I don't believe it requires a battery as one is not mentioned it the instructions sheet and it doesn't have a removable panel/door to replace a battery.
I suspect the DAVIDsTEA thermometer/timer uses a thermocouple instead of a battery:
We owned ours now for almost a year and no problems.
Actually judging from this conversation: https://twitter.com/DAVIDsTEA/status/285752015760539648
There is some sort of battery.
You're correct. Several weeks ago, I inadvertently "toasted" one of our DAVIDsTEA thermometer/timers in the microwave. Recently, I became curious, disassembled it, and found that there is in fact a large flat disc battery CR-2032 – Lithium 3V.
However, this unit is not designed to be user serviceable. Prying the top & bottom halves apart fractures the plastic fasteners that hold the assembly together.
Bought an OXO thermometer today and am happy with it:
I tested it against the Davids and the Upton analog one on boiling water. Only the OXO registered 212. The Davids was 5 degrees under and the Upton was 10 degrees under! (Could be why I was finding all my teas too astringent. Yikes.)
The OXO is simple, no fancy features. Has silicone around the screen so you don't burn your fingers taking it out of the kettle. Nice big display. The reviews on Amazon are pretty bad, so we shall see how long it lasts me, but my first impression is that it's great.
I decided that a thermometer/timer with presets for tea was overkill for me. I just want a quick temp reading on my water so I can start steeping when it reaches the temp I want (which seems to be different for every tea). Then, since I'm always right by my microwave when brewing tea, I just punch in the time on the microwave timer, hit start, and pour. Simple. I'm happy now.
I think these thermometers all tend to be somewhat inaccurate especially after some time. I'm gonna try to remember to do an ice slurry and boiling water test with this one every few months.
Per OXO:
"With the OXO Good Grips Digital Instant Read Thermometer, cooking meats to perfection is as easy as pressing a button."
"The probe has a thin tip to quickly read temperatures and the display has large numbers for easy readability."
- an LR44 battery
- visual monitoring as it doesn't provide an audible beep when the desired temperature has been reached – Not optimal when multi-tasking is necessary
- a timer
Cost: $19.99
I use this one – http://www.amazon.com/Taylor-5989N-Classic-Instant-Thermometer/dp/B00004XSC4/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1391964694&sr=8-2&keywords=taylor+instant+read+thermometer
it's not digital, so no batteries to worry about, is super easy to calibrate, maintains calibration for months at a time in home use (needed recal once a week or so in the restaurant though) and , my favorite part , fits perfectly and is perfectly placed to measure the kettle temp in the whistle hole in my tea kettle's spout!
I just use an inexpensive manual thermometer I bought at the drug store. For cooking and meat and such (oil too, right? I have no idea what it's for really). It seems to work pretty well, and I don't care what happens to it. I think I paid like 5$ for it.
Now that I have a kettle I can program temperature into, I use my thermometer never.
If it tops out at 220f its a meat thermometer. If it tops out at 500f or 550f its a candy/deepfry thermometer, and probably has a thicker stem and reads a little more slowly. What is your electric kettle? I'm considering getting one…
It's a meat thermometer then, because I would know if it went all the way to 500f. It was really cheap, so I have no real feelings attached to it.
Anyway, my kettle was really inexpensive, and it works really well. It's by Oster, and the Amazon reviews says it doesn't work, which knock on wood, mine is like 8 months old and still does, and it looks like it's not being made anymore. Here's one at the same price point. http://www.walmart.com/ip/Aroma-Gourmet-Series-6-Cup-Digital-Electric-Kettle-Stainless-Steel/17201593 Mine doesn't have preset temps, though, it goes up by 10 degrees starting at 160f.
I just bought an oster kettle at Target for $35.00. It also increases by 10° but lists brewing temps for various teas. I have noticed with a lot of bad reviews the buyer either failed to follow instructions, like do not submerse, or had expectations the product was never intended to meet.

The numbers sounded terrific when they were announced Monday. The federal stimulus program produced more than 70,000 jobs in California, according to Gov. Schwarzenegger's senior advisor Richard Rice, who directs a task force that oversees economic recovery and stimulus dollars. More than 53,000 of those jobs came from federal money sent to state government entities. Nearly 17,000 of those jobs were the product of money given to local entities.
But there's more to those numbers than meets the eye. The jobs number does not reflect new jobs. Instead, it's is a mish mash that includes any job that can be said to be supported by stimulus funds. That would count new jobs, jobs that would have been eliminated but for stimulus funds, and perhaps even jobs that used to be funded with other money but now are supported by stimulus money.
This last problem is a persistent one in government programs. The new money doesn't so much add the new jobs as free up other money to go elsewhere. Asked to break down the job numbers on a conference call with reporters, Rice said it was too hard to tell how many new jobs were being produced."This is hard to track," he said.
U.S. & World
News from around the country and around the globe
This is the sort of thing that fans suspicion about stimulus. California clearly needed the help, and the money received has been considerable: $31 billion for state entities, and a total of $38 billion when local and private grants are thrown in. That's real money -- but not nearly enough to offset some $60 billion in cuts, tax increases and other budget adjustments made by the legislature over the past couple years.
By the time the stimulus has run its course, the state will have received $85 billion. But we'll likely never know the real impact on jobs of that money.

The Only 100% Digital SLR to Combine Exclusive Dust Reduction System, 8-Megapixel Imaging Sensor, and a 2.5-Inch LCD in a Compact, Lightweight Body
Melville, New York, September 26, 2005 – Olympus proudly introduces the new EVOLT E-500, the most full-featured digital SLR camera in its class of sub-$1000.00 SLR cameras. Designed to be used by all photographers of any skill level, the E-500's compact and durable body is packed with Olym pus innovations like the exclusive Dust Reduction System for spot-free photos, 8 million pixels of detail for bright and colorful images, a TruePic TURBO Image Processor for fast response time, and an oversized, easy-to-view 2.5-inch HyperCrystal LCD. Compatible with a wide range of Olympus Zuiko Digital Specific Lenses™, the E-500 delivers the versatility and power that are the hallmarks of a performance SLR, but at an affordable price.
Exclusive Dust Free Technology for Spot-Free Photos
Dust is all around us, and when swapping out a lens on a digital single-lens reflex camera there's a chance that a camera's electro-statically charged image sensor will attract micro dust that can ruin photos. Since the main advantage of using an SLR camera is the ability to change lenses for better imaging effects, Olympus has developed a way for photographers to enjoy the freedom of using all the lenses of the Olympus E-System in the most challenging, dusty environments without compromising image quality.
Olympus' Dust Reduction System produces spot-free photos with the exclusive Supersonic Wave Filter™, a patented ultrasonic technology that shakes at 35,000 vibrations a second to remove dust from in front of the camera sensor every time you turn the camera on. These spot-free photos liberate users from hours spent retouching photographs at the computer. The new EVOLT E-500, like all Olympus digital SLR cameras, is equipped with this exclusive user-friendly technology, and only Olympus has a solution to provide spot-free photography in a digital SLR.
Detailed, Bright and Colorful Photos with 8-Megapixel Image Sensor
The E-500 is loaded with an impressive 8 million pixels of detail, for bright colorful photos. The 8-megapixel sensor gives photographers the flexibility to blow up their prints to the large sizes supported by many of today's printers, or crop into an image to print only part of the image that is important to them. Moreover, the image sensor in the EVOLT E-500 is a high-performance Full Frame Transfer KODAK KAF-8300CE CCD™ that delivers improved dynamic range, low noise to capture fine image details in the highlight and shadow areas, as well as excellent color fidelity for brilliant colors. Additionally the anti-blooming technology on each pixel and the exclusive Olympus TruePic TURBO Image Processor helps to eliminate undesirable "artifacts", "stepping" or "jaggies", "purple fringing" or "moiré" in an image.
TruePic TURBO™ for Clarity and Speed
Olympus' TruePic TURBO Image Processor provides fast camera response, operation and processing speed for more responsive camera operation. This is done by closely integrating the image processor and hardware elements to eliminate unnecessary processing tasks, accelerating camera operations. For faster burst rates, the TruePic TURBO processor addresses the dedicated 64MB image buffer for up to 4 TIFF or RAW images at 2.5 frames-per-second, and unlimited burst mode with HQ JPEG images and extreme speed Compact Flash cards.
Along with the speed advantages, TruePic TURBO also produces crystal clear photos using all the pixel information for each image to provide you with the best digital images possible for every photo.
Large Easy-to-View 2.5-Inch HyperCyrstal™ LCD Monitor
Big and bright with 215,250 pixels, the E-500 has a 2.5-inch HyperCrystal LCD that offers many times the contrast of conventional LCD monitors, so captured images can be beautifully displayed in vivid color on the screen with exceptional clarity. Because photos are for sharing, the E-500 LCD features a wide, 160° viewing angle on the vertical and horizontal axis, ensuring excellent visibility and beautiful image quality even when everyone huddles around the camera to see what you've created. The larger LCD also means the icons and text on the camera's menu display are enlarged for easier viewing.
The World's Largest Selection of Digital Specific Lenses™
The versatility of the Olympus E-System comes from delivering the largest selection of "Designed-for-Digital" lenses –more than any other manufacturer to date. Olympus' Zuiko Digital Specific Lenses™ come in a wide range of focal lengths for achieving the best image result, and impress with their spectacular clarity and edge-to-edge sharpness.
Most other digital SLR cameras still use many traditional 35mm film lenses on digital bodies. But since those lenses are based on designs for film and not for pixels, they deliver insufficient light at the edges of a digital camera's image sensor. This can result in reduced sharpness and color definition, particularly when shooting with large apertures and wide-angle lenses . The E-500 does not have this problem, because it accommodates the full line of interchangeable Zuiko Digital Lenses. These digital specific lenses are designed for digital capture with smart technology that allows the lenses to communicate with the camera to ensure the best possible image quality.
Olympus dedicated digital optics coupled with the EVOLT E-500 render sharpness and contrast more consistently at any given f-stop. The lenses are matched to the Four Thirds System standard image sensor for the optimal balance between image quality, camera and lens size, and expandability. With a wide array of digital specific lenses to choose from, it's easy to select the ideal lens to bring along when you don't want to lug a lot of heavy, bulky gear.
The E-500 outfit includes a compact, Zuiko Digital 14 – 45mm f3.5 – f5.6 Lens (equivalent to 28mm – 90mm in 35mm photography) that perfectly matches the imager so light strikes the sensor directly to ensure rich, accurate colors and edge-to-edge sharpness. Its 3.2x zoom covers the range most frequently used in ordinary photography and weighs just 10 ounces (285 grams) offering users an extremely dynamic, portable everyday-use zoom. Close-ups as near as 15 inches (38cm) are possible throughout the zoom range.
Easy-to-Use, Easy-to-Handle Light and Ergonomic Design
Creating an affordable digital SLR that most anyone can pick up and start to use is about making it easier to operate. That means menus that make sense and buttons on the body that are easy to understand and operate; adding automatic settings for every imaginable situation; making the LCD big and bright enough so you can review a shot without squinting; and making it less of a chore to get images out of the camera and into your computer or printer. Moreover, at just 5.09 inches (W) x 3.72 inches (H) x 2.59 inches (D) and only 15.3 ounces, the EVOLT E-500 is light and compact enough to comfortably shoot with all day.
You don't need a degree in photography to shoot like a pro with the E-500. Just take it home, charge the Li-ion battery with the included charger, and begin taking photos. Instead of working to find the right settings for the subject, select from one of the camera's 25 Exposure Modes (Easy, Basic and Creative) that make it easy to get the results you want, whenever and wherever you want them.
To access the Easy Modes, simply turn the mode dial on the top of the camera to "Scene" and choose from a range of 15 pre-programmed Scene Select modes to achieve the optimal results for: Night Scenes, Fireworks, Sunsets, Beach and Snow, Children, Landscape, and more.
Every Scene Select mode on the EVOLT E-500 provides a sample image and a description of what is happening to achieve the desired result. For example, choosing the Landscape setting reveals a sample of a landscape photo, and a text description of what the mode is displayed on the large, easy-to-read 2.5-inch LCD
To access Basic shooting modes that allow some user over-rides, just select one of the 5 icons on the mode dial (Landscape; Portrait; Night Scene-Portrait; Macro; and Action/Sports Modes).
The Creative Modes on the mode dial allow users to take control of the E-500 for the ultimate in artistic expression. For example, Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority and Manual Modes allow users to tweak all of the camera's settings just the way they want for any situation at hand.
Direct Button operation enables EVOLT E-500 users to get to the settings they want without wading through endless menus or pushing arrow buttons excessively. Instead, most custom settings can be set by pressing one of the cameras 8 direct key buttons for White Balance, Exposure Compensation, ISO, Flash Mode, Metering Mode, Auto Focus Mode, Auto Focus Frame and Recording Mode, and then turning a dial by thumb to customize the setting as desired. All settings are viewable at once on the camera's "Super Control Panel" displayed on the LCD.
Transferring images to the computer has never been easier with the Auto-Connect USB that does not require software drivers (for most computers/operating systems) for hassle-free image downloads. Images may also be viewed on a television using the video cable.
When it comes time to print images, the E-500 connects via the included USB cable for fast and easy PC-free printing, to any PictBridge-enabled printer via USB, like the new Olympus P-11 Digital Photo Printer. Simply select the images displayed on the camera's LCD that you wish and print.
The Flexibility of the Most Feature Rich Camera in its Class
Once one feature is mastered, there are a seemingly endless number of other features just waiting to be explored. Because the E-500 is designed for the ultimate user-friendly experience, you can choose to let the camera make all the decisions, or take control for a new level of customization and performance.
5 Metering Modes: A new 49 Point Digital ESP Light Meter enables digital electro selective pattern metering for accurate exposures under the largest number of conditions. The Digital ESP can also be linked to the AF (auto focus) selection or independent of the AF selection for even more versatility. Olympus' widely acclaimed proprietary Digital ESP metering calculates the best light values under complex lighting conditions. Center-weighted metering is biased to the center of the viewfinder (cross) area. Spot Meter (2%) enables the most accurate metering for tough lighting conditions like backlit or spot lit. Highlight Spot Meter (2%) adjusts for predominantly white subject for correct exposure with detail. Shadow Spot Meter (2%) adjusts for a black subject, providing the correct exposure with detail.
- 3 Color Modes: Vivid / Natural / Muted: Vivid mode produces photos with more highly saturated colors and higher contrast to optimize images when vivid shots are required. This is also the recommended setting when printing directly from the camera to an inkjet printer. The Natural mode produces realistic color similar to those seen by the human eye and is the perfect choice for the discerning photographer looking for the most realistic photos. The Muted mode is ideal for those users who plan to heavily manipulate or edit their images with the included OLYMPUS Master Software or with Adobe ® Photoshop™.
- A Choice of Two Color Space Settings: Users can choose from two color space settings according to their needs: sRGB, which is the standard for computer monitor viewing and inkjet printer output, and Adobe ® RGB, which is widely used for commercial applications.
- 9 Black & White Modes: Red, Yellow, Orange, and Green filters can be selected to replicate the same traditional film filters, enhancing the drama of the image in the Black & White shooting mode. In addition to Sepia tone, the EVOLT E-500 also offers users three tone effects: Blue, Green and Purple for special results.
- 2 Red-Eye Reduction modes, on Flash and in Playback: Besides the ability to select Red-Eye reduction mode on the flash prior to taking a shot, the EVOLT E-500 also offers the ability to correct for Red-Eye in images that have already been taken while the camera is in playback mode.
- Dual Card Slots: Users also benefit from two memory card slots – one for CompactFlash or Microdrive and another for xD-Picture Cards – which add to the camera's practicality and provide extra data storage. Simply depress a button on the back of the camera to choose which card type to capture to and copy images back and forth from one card to the other in playback.
- Support for High-Speed and High-Capacity Memory Media : The EVOLT E-500 supports 32-bit file formatting allowing the use of 2 gigabyte and larger CompactFlash, Microdrive, and xD media™ cards. The EVOLT E-500 also supports high-speed CF cards for faster operation in the burst mode.
- AF: The E-500 dedicated auto focus system offers 3 selectable AF points for accurate auto focus operation. When automatic target zone selection is active, a superimposed display confirms the relevant target zone. Focus modes are set via a manual switch on the camera body for Single AF, Continuous AF, and Manual Focus operation. To ensure successful focusing in the darkest environments, the E-500 utilizes an AF illuminator built into the flash.
- Simultaneous RAW and JPEG Image Recording : A choice of three image formats is offered: RAW, TIFF, and JPEG. If desired, image data can be simultaneously recorded in RAW and JPEG with the RAW+JPEG format.
- Contrast, Sharpness and Tone Curve Controls : Contrast can be set to any of five levels, and sharpness can be set to any of seven levels. So whether users want pro-quality tonal fidelity or sharp vibrant colors, they can customize each image to suit their preference.
- White Balance : White balance settings from 3000K to 7000K can be set in 12 steps using button and dial controls, with ±7-step fine-tuning available for all settings. A one-touch white balance function allows users to store and retrieve up to four frequently used white balance settings at the touch of a button. By initially reading the light separately for the CCD, the camera can see a dramatic increase in speed without loss of accuracy.
- Noise Reduction : The noise reduction function uses a proprietary Olympus algorithm to detect and eliminate the fixed noise that can appear on long-exposure images.
- High-Precision Flash Control: The flash can be turned ON and OFF manually or with the AUTO FLASH option selected the flash will pop up automatically when ever it is needed. A wide range of flash modes is provided, including Auto, Red-Eye Reduction, Slow Synchro (front and rear curtain), and Fill-In.
- RGB Histogram Information Display: The EVOLT E-500 will display an individual histogram for each color channel (RGB) as well as the overall luminance of the exposure. This information is valuable to the more advanced user who may need to alter the exposure for specific output sources. A display that identifies overexposed highlights or underexposed shadow areas is also an option in image playback mode.
- Self-timer and Remote Control: The built-in self-timer offers a choice of 12-second or 2-second delay. An optional RM-1 remote control unit is available and can be used with the 2-second delay setting or for immediate shutter release, as well as to control "bulb" shutter openings for longer exposures.
The Olympus EVOLT E-500 Digital SLR will be available in October 2005. It includes: EVOLT E-500 Body with 14-45mm f3.5/5.6 Zuiko Digital Zoom Lens, USB Cable, Video Cable, Li-Ion Battery Pack (BLM-1), Li-Ion Battery Charger (BCM-2), Shoulder Strap, OLYMPUS Master Software CD-ROM, Manuals, Warranty card.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – With a full day of action, the Lipscomb track and field teams were once again split between the Hoosiers Hills Invite in Bloomington, Ind., and at the Samford Invite in Birmingham, Ala.
With runners competing in three invitational events at the Indiana Hoosiers Hills Invite, the Lady Bisons made it count setting two school records in impressive fashion.
Dani Walker set the school record in the invitational one mile run. The invitational pits the best runners present at the meet. Walker's time of 4:45.33 bested second place Brianna Johnson of Indiana by more than 13 seconds.
"Dani has been amazing," Bill Taylor, director of cross country and track and field, said. "She went out and pulled away leading wire-to-wire. It is even more impressive after running a 4:46 split in the mile last night in the distance medley relay."
Maggie Lawrence also set a school record in the 3000m Invitational as she clocked in at 9:57.88. Teammate Minna Fields finished just behind in a time of 10:08.49.
"Another school record goes down," Taylor said. "It is the best track race I have seen for Maggie. Minna ran terrific as well."
Brenna Thompson ran a season-best 57.98 in the 400m dash invitational and has likely moved herself into the top-heat at the upcoming A-Sun conference meet with the time.
Down south at the Samford Invite, Jared Wingerter set a personal-record and won his heat in the 5000m run. His time of 15:19.81 placed him seventh overall in the 26-man field.
Jalen Thompson set a personal-best in the long jump with a leap of 6.55 meters while also winning his heat of the 200m dash in a time of 22.61 seconds. Tucker Peabody timed in at 21.86 seconds in the top-heat at the invite in the first lane.
Grant Stromberg timed in at 8:46.07 in the 3000m run, winning his heat for the Bisons.
After completing the two-day invites, Lipscomb now prepares for the Atlantic Sun Indoor Track and Field Championships. The event gets started on Feb. 22 and takes place in Johnson City, Tenn.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – With a full day of action, the Lipscomb track and field teams were once again split between the Hoosiers Hills Invite in Bloomington, Ind., and at the Samford Invite in Birmingham, Ala.
