If you have visited HappyMoose in the last few days, you may have noticed a few changes. We have had a major system update and there are a few things that we wanted to share with you here.
Intelligent cropping
One of the common requests has been for a better cropping tool in the photo editor.
In the previous version when you loaded your photo the default crop would quite often chop heads off and you would have to fiddle around with the crop to get it placed correctly.
The new version has an intelligent crop that identifies the main subject of the photo and will place the crop around that subject. This means that you should not have to edit the crop yourself - of course there are always exceptions to this rule, but more often that not you can let the system do the work for you.
Separate shipping costs
Up until now, shipping costs were built into product pricing. We feel it makes our product pricing transparent if we do not include the shipping cost in the product prices.
Many of our customers order multiple products at a time. With the shipping cost removed from the product price, you can be sure that you're only paying for the necessary shipping costs associated with your total order.
On a side note, we are gearing up to handle international orders and so separating shipping costs is one major step towards that process.
Pricing changes
We have had a thorough review of our pricing, and have been able to reduce the price significantly on several product lines.
We think you'll be pretty amazed when you go onsite to check them out. For example, we used to charge $29.95 for a set of four 15x15cm wall dots. Now you'll pay just $19.47.
Yes, we are still using the same archival quality ink and the same genuine paper from Canon. This price drop is largely made possible by a more streamlined workflow, a re-negotiated price with our suppliers.
Buy 1 or 100 or more!
You spoke, we listened :)
Many people found it annoying to have to buy Moment Cards and Polaroid cards in packs; so now you can buy as few or as many as you want.
They are priced per card and shipping is added at checkout. Order some today to get those photos off your phone.
As always, we thank you for your continued support of HappyMoose and hope you are enjoying your HappyMoose products.
If you have any great photos of our products in use on your walls or wherever, please send them to us. We love to see where the amazing photos we print end up.
Of course don't hesitate to get in touch with us if you have any questions or feedback that you think could help improve HappyMoose for the future.

Would love to have the "Toggle widescreen mode" as a user preference. I think it's bad (maybe it is convenient :-)) to store user settings in a session – if you lose the session you lose the settings.
Feature request: Make "Toggle widescreen mode" a user setting
I had the same thought once, but then I started using it on a tablet and realized it makes sense to have different settings for the same user on different devices (widescreen desktop vs tablet vs phone).
-> Considering this, I think it's probably best as it is implemented now.
The switch is just one keyboard shortcut or dropdown menu item away.
you can have different settings profiles for your devices so this could work as a persistent preference.
i'll make a note of this.
I get the reasoning behind widescreen being stored client-side, but I'd like it as a profile setting as well. It would be a lot easier because when I use widescreen I also disable combined mode and turn on excerpts, so there's several settings I end up changing every time. Being able to just switch profiles would make the whole process easier.
it's probably client side only because i didn't want to extend the schema with a different preference, i'll take a look at this when i'm back in town.

It was a nostalgic moment for the fans of Baahubali as actor Prabhas shared a new post on his Instagram account. He posted a photo with the team of the period drama including director SS Rajamouli, producer Shobu Yarlagadda and co-actors, Rana Daggubati and Anushka Shetty. For those who are wondering where and why was the team together, this Baahubali reunion happened in London. All of them were there for MM Keeravani's Live Music concert of Baahubali at the famous Royal Albert Theater.
In the caption of the photo, Prabhas, last seen in Saaho, mentioned, "It's a #RoyalReunion in London with my #Baahubali team! Can't wait to experience the LIVE rendition of @baahubalimovie score at the @royalalberthall this evening. @ssrajamouli @shobuy_ @ranadaggubati #Anushka."
The photo which had the Baahubali team smiling from ear to ear was also shared by Rana Daggubati on social media. "The best evening with the best people!! ❤" he wrote along with the photos. Filmmaker Rajamouli also expressed his excitement for the music concert as he posted identical photos on Instagram.
Along with the music concert, the film will also be screened at the Royal Albert Hall in London on October 19.
Earlier, on October 9, Prabhas took to his Instagram account and in a video, shared, "Hello everyone, I am excited to say that Baahubali The Beginning will be screened at Royal Albert Hall in London on October 19, 2019. A live orchestra will be performing the epic score in sync with the film. Please join me, Rana, SS Rajamouli, Keeravaani and team BB for yet another epic event." In another post, he shared a photo of Baahubali team and wrote, "Super excited to join my #Baahubali team in London on October 19th to catch a LIVE rendition of MM Keeravaani's score for the film by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra! Would love all of you to join us… @royalalberthall"
Baahubali, the historical drama had an epic run at the box office in India. The film did wonders in the overseas market as well. It was released in two parts–The Beginning and The Conclusion.

After the excitement of building your conservatory, it's time to start thinking about the décor.
Along with all your furniture, you need to consider whether you want blinds, and if you do, what style is right for you.
With so many options to choose from, it's important to take the time to choose the right style of blinds. Here is a a list of the different types of conservatory roof blinds. One factor to consider is ease of installation, so we've put together a handy installation guide to help you decide and how to Fit Conservatory Roof Blinds.
Benefits of a roof blind
While roof blinds add to the décor of your conservatory, they have many more practical benefits too such as:
- Thermal regulation – We've all been in a sweltering conservatory in the summer. This is because the glass of the windows intensify the heat as the light shines through the window. Equally, windows have poor insulation properties, making your conservatory freezing in the winter. Roof blinds are a great way to gain control of the temperature in your conservatory, blocking out the heat in summer and keeping it warm in winter.
- Lighting control – It might sound obvious but installing roof blinds in your conservatory gives you full control over the amount of natural light entering the room. In the height of summer when the sun is shining bright, roof blinds allow you to block out some of the natural light for a more comfortable experience.
- Privacy – Having so many windows can leave you feeling exposed in your conservatory. Adding blinds allows you to control when outsiders can look in and when you want a little more privacy.
- Noise reduction – Depending on the material you use for your conservatory blinds, they can have sound cancelling properties. This will make sitting in your conservatory a much more peaceful experience.
How to measure conservatory roof blinds
Before you know how to fit conservatory roof blinds and install them, you need to make sure you've got the right sized blinds for your windows.
To measure your windows your need to:
- For each window, use a tape measure to the width and height of the window. It's important to only measure the size of the glass, not the frame.
- Some blinds require you to measure the depth of the window panel to determine the size of the fixing brackets needed. You can do this with a tape measure or a depth gauge.
- Next, measure the size of the frame between each window, making sure you are only measuring the space between the glass panels. If this gap is less than the standard 70mm, you may need to request modified headrails.
- Finally, you need to measure how far the window handle sticks out from the window. This only needs to be done if your blind will cover the handle.
How to Fit Conservatory Roof Blinds
Top Fix Blinds
Top fixed blinds are fitted to the top of your window, often leaving the frame visible at the sides when the blinds are closed. This is option is chosen for a neat and tidy look however can let in more natural light.
To fit your top fixing blinds, you will need:
- Drill or screwdriver
- Pencil
- Blinds and fixings
How to fit a top fix blind
- Start by marking out the position of your brackets, making sure they are level with the frames and spaced out evenly. For a top fix blind, they will be placed along the lintel at the top of the window.
- Next, fix the brackets into the frame with a drill or screwdriver.
- Clip the headrail of the blind into the brackets and check they are secure and won't fall out.
- Finally, test that the blind works properly and check the positioning is level.
Face Fix Blinds
Face fix blinds are attached to the window frame and cover the outside recess of the window frame, hiding a larger area. These blinds tend to fall closer to the window resulting in less natural light coming through.
To fit your face fixing blinds, you will need:
- Drill or screwdriver
- Tape measure
- Pencil
- Blinds and fixings.
How to fit a face fix blind
- Mark out the position of the brackets using the ladder controls provided. The brackets should be fitted at lease 5cm away from the ladder.
- Release the swing arm on the bracket to it is pointing out at a 90-degree angle, facing towards you. Screw the brackets in place based on the positions previously marked out.
- Now push the swing arm anticlockwise, as far as it can go, and clip the blind over the brackets, one at a time.
- Push the swing arm back into its original position, ensuring it locks into place. You will need to firmly hold the headrail during this stage.
- Finally, test that the blind works properly and check the positioning is level.
Perfect Fit Blinds
Perfect Fit blinds are a great choice for those who struggle with DIY. These are made to your exact measurements ensuring they fit in perfectly with your window frame.
To fit a Perfect Fit Blind you will need:
- Screwdriver
- Pencil
- Tape measure
- Blinds and fixings
How to Fit a Perfect Fit Blind
- Before you start, you need to assemble the frames. Do this by sliding the side frame pieces into the corner pieces of the top frame. Then slide on the bottom frame and secure using the screws provided.
- Fix the first bracket 85mm from the corner of the window on each side. Push the bracket between the glass and the rubber seal if the frame. Then fit the rest of the brackets at even intervals down the sides of the window, making sure each side matches up.
TIP: You can use a tape measure at this stage to mark where each bracket should go to ensure they're even.
- Line up the frame with the brackets you have installed, there will be holes in the frames where the brackets need to fit into. Firmly press the frame into place, ensuring each bracket is connected.
TIP: If your bracket is slightly out of place, gently nudge it into the correct space using the handle of the screwdriver.
- If your window has a handle, the blind may require a packing piece between the frame and the handle to stop them touching. To do this, remove the handle by unscrewing it at the base. Then place the packing piece between the handle and the frame and re-fit the handle on top.

We need to start by changing the deep-rooted mind-set of existing governance paradigms and begin showing global solidarity.
Indeed, when we doff the tainted glasses of ideology, we can see that marshaling a country's economic and industrial resources to achieve a common goal is as essential as the temporary shelter-in-place policy that many of us are now abiding by. In an abnormal era, this is what we call the new normal.
Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, all countries have to withstand the blow and get through the challenge as soon as possible. In the future, how to promote their governance system and enhance operation will be their priority. Where globalization heads depends on such resilience.
For most people it's unfathomable that the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic is the first global event that hasn't been led by the US since 1941. In 1941, the US was a leader in the worldwide antifascist war. During this current global fight against an invisible enemy, the US is hardly able to protect itself. The US should have been much better prepared for the outbreak considering the coronavirus came to its shores after it had rampaged through China, Japan, South Korea, Iran, Italy, France, Germany and Britain.
Regardless of the speaker's understanding and intention of choosing a word, it is the listener's feeling that matters in the judgment of the legitimacy of a word.
In Europe and the US, there are plenty of groceries and toiletries on store shelves, but due to a lack of delivery services, people cannot stay home for extended periods. They have to go out to buy daily supplies, which has created window for the spread of COVID-19.
China's image will not be dented by lies which will however ultimately hurt Americans. There are three main "China lies" promoted by the Trump administration.
Self-sacrifice has always been considered the highest virtue in a collective culture like China's. Many Chinese healthcare workers were infected by the virus because they didn't wear or have access to protective equipment but there was never an attempt to tell the public not to wear a mask or that they were of no use.
I look forward to a better world and better China-US relations after the global shock season of 2020 finally comes to an end.
The US' sluggish start could be attributed to many factors, from ideological and cultural differences, to the artificial calm instilled by top leaders during an election year, and human nature that numbs us to problems from afar. This is not the time for psychoanalysis, because there is no time.
The US founding fathers hoped the country would be humble, pursue freedom, call for unity, and contribute to the well-being of every American and all of humanity. But how are you conducting yourselves now? US politicians today should apologize to the great American founders!
Vietnam is always cautious in terms of its cooperation with other powers. This was the case with China, and it will be the same with the US. After all, a US-Vietnam partnership would be nothing like the partnerships the US has with Japan, South Korea and even the Philippines. It is likely to never be so.
China's reform and opening-up has created opportunities for individuals and families to build wealth, giving them hope for a moderately prosperous life. This is the basic driving force behind China's economic rise. The impetus for restoring production during the on-going epidemic comes from the basic needs of these ordinary people.
Describing China's state of overcoming tough challenges in 2020 with words such as "battle" and "war" does not indicate the Chinese people are aggressive. It expresses their awareness of the difficulties and their determination to settle them.
These days overseas Chinese are debating whether they should wear a mask to avoid being infected by the virus, or not wear a mask to avoid discrimination. The debates are never conclusive but have caused greater confusion.
China's development is not determined by how the outside world sees China, but how China remains firm on its chosen path. In this process, it is of vital importance that China's governance system should advance with the times and have a strong ability to self-correct.
One of the most important experiences in the evolution of Milwaukee's public health system was raising public awareness, which effectively prevents the spread of rumors, and enables residents to proactively fight the disease.
The rise of nations is a never-ending endurance race. From this perspective, negative impacts, such as the coronavirus outbreak, are likely to occur frequently in China's future development. But as long as they are handled properly, there is nothing to fear.

Coating Service - Metals And Dielectrics
PLEIGER offers a wide range of optical first surface coatings for optical instruments and laser applicationss. Metallic coatings are preffered for broadband applications and some low power laser instruments. An enhanced coating boosts the reflectance by adding layers of dielectrics material, but the region over which the reflectance is boosted is limited. Laser line coatings are designed for a special wavelength or laser type and distinguish themselves through the highest reflection values.
Coatings – Metallic
Gold ist the best material for all infrared applications. It may used from 700 nm. It is very soft and may be scratched easily. We recommend to protect it an oxide layer.
Silver is only used in the visible and infrared spectral range. It does tarnish when exposed to air, owing mainly to the formation of silver sulphide, but the initial high reflectance and the extreme ease of evaporation make it a commen choice for components.
Aluminium is only used in the UV and visible spectral range. The reflectance of an aluminium coating does drop gradually in use, although the thin thin oxide layer, which always forms on the surface very qauickly after coating, helps to protect from further corrosion. We recommend to protect the aluminium film with an oxide layer.
Rhodium / Platinum / Chrome
Rhodium and Platinum reflect less than the other metals (Gold, Silver and Aluminium). These metals are only used where stable films very resistant to corrosion are required.

Coatings for lasers
Metallic reflecting layers suffer from a considerable absorption loss, which still permits a high level of performance in most simple systems. There are applications where the absorption in the metal layer is too high and the reflectance too low. Theses include resonators, where the high number of successive refelctions maqgnifies the effects of absorption, and in high power systems where the absorbed energy may damage the coating.
CO2 laser coatings
The Pleiger CO2 reflector coatings are designed and manufactured to the highest standards of reflectivity and durability, to preserve laser power and laser mode und the harsh demands of the internal laser cavity or the external industrial operating environment.
- Optimized for 10.6 µm
- Optimized for 10.6 µm and 633 nm
- Optinized for 10.6 µm / Cavity
YAG / Fiber laser coatings
The Pleiger NIR reflector coatings are designed and manufactured as all dielectric multi layer mirrorsoperating environment.

RANGERS will, in all likelihood, need to achieve what none of their predecessors ever managed by beating Spanish opposition away from home if they are to progress to the last eight of the UEFA Cup.
That they travel to Spain level on terms with Osasuna following this first-leg draw will be a massive disappointment to Walter Smith and his men although in truth only some instinctive goalkeeping from Stefan Klos and a late Brahim Hemdani strike saved Rangers from suffering an ignominious home defeat.
The only Rangers side to win on Spanish soil to date were the legendary Cup Winners Cup side of 1972 and it would almost be an achievement on a parallel with that historic win over Moscow Dynamo should the class of 2007 somehow carve out the result they need to keep alive their interest in this tournament.
In truth, this was probably the worst Rangers performance since Smith resumed the reins in January and they will need to perform much better in Pamplona next Wednesday if they are to give the Spaniards much to worry about.
Klos, one of the few stand-outs in Light Blues on a disappointing night, could hardly have chosen a more high-profile match in which to make his comeback to first team action.
The German's return for his first start in almost exactly a year, in place of the suspended Allan McGregor, was Walter Smith's only change to the starting XI that had battled to a 2-0 victory at Easter Road the previous weekend.
The bench, however, was beefed up with more experienced bodies with Libor Sionko, Filip Sebo and Karl Svensson all straining to be involved in the action.
Osasuna's plea that their squad had been decimated by injuries for once wasn't merely a case of media manipulation.
They lined up in the 4-1-4-1 formation they had intimated, a system that had Cameroonian striker Aguiue Webo at its apex.
With both teams, in theory, lining up with a solitary striker apiece – albeit with Barry Ferguson detailed to support Kris Boyd whenever possible – it was of little surprise that most of the key battles took place in the heart of a congested midfield.
Osasuna, surprisingly, enjoyed large swathes of territorial possession in the early stages, often pushing a shaky Rangers defence on to the back foot.
It was scarcely a shock, therefore, when the Spaniards forged in front after 17 minutes. If Rangers felt the foul awarded against Charlie Adam for his challenge on Jose Izquierdo was unmerited then they could have little complaint with the way the goal was conceded.
Luis Gomez, collecting the ball from the short free kick, was allowed to amble forward unfettered until he reached the edge of the Rangers penalty box from where his swerving, enticing cross was embraced by the forehead of Raul Garcia.
His downward header kissed the Ibrox turf before nestling in the corner of the net despite Klos' desperate attempt to keep it out.
Rangers' nervousness was apparent if somewhat inexplicable. Their current good run of form should have given them sufficient confidence from which to build a commanding lead to take to Spain for the return match but instead passes went astray and tackles were missed.
On one rare forage forward midway through the first half Chris Burke skipped past several passes before executing the perfect reverse ball into the penalty box.
Hemdani, not possessing Burke's depth of foresight, failed to anticipate the pass and the chance was gone.
Worse was to soon follow for Rangers with Barry Ferguson collecting a yellow card that means he now misses the second leg in Pamplona. It was to be symptomatic of Rangers' luck on the night.
Smith had to do something to try to salvage the tie and acted accordingly at the break, shoving on Nacho Novo to replace Charlie Adam who could perhaps count himself unfortunate to have been given the hook so early in the game.
The change, however, did little to alter the shape of the game as Osasuna grew increasingly comfortable with Rangers unable to break them down at the other end.
It could have been worse for Rangers around the hour mark when the Spaniards capitalised on an Ugi Ehiogu error to send Inaki Munoz through on goal but Klos rolled back the years to make a fantastic point-blank save.
Buoyed by the let-off, Rangers drove up the park to create their first two scoring chances of the game.
Novo darted down the right flank to send in a tempting cross that Ricardo missed and Carlos Cuellar almost inadvertently directed into his own net, the defender heaving a massive sigh of relief as the ball only just cleared his own crossbar.
From the resulting corner Rangers made Ricardo work for the first time, the keeper reacting adroitly to keep out Kevin Thomson's thump towards the top corner of his goal.
It was another frustrating moment in an unsatisfactory night's work for Rangers although they shortly afterwards sampled their first piece of good fortune of the evening when Gomez thrashed a left-foot shot wide of the target when taking it with his right seemed the more obvious choice.
A set-piece just outside the penalty box presented Rangers with a chance to draw level. Adam, the ideal choice of taker from that range, was by now sitting on the bench with his feet up and Ferguson duly squirted the effort tamely wide of goal.
Rangers' play was becoming increasingly ragged and they had Klos to thank once more when the keeper kept out Munoz's stab at goal.
The final piece of action, however, came at the other end. Just as he had in the previous Old Firm game, Hemdani was the late, late hero as he strode forward before unleashing a shot that arced past Ricardo.
Ibrox erupted in relief but it was the sole bright spot on a gloomy night.

Simply put, radar data are produced when:
- a radar transmitter emits a beam of micro or millimeter waves
- waves reflect from the surfaces they strike
- backscattered radiation is detected by the radar system's receiving antenna, which is tuned to the frequency of the transmitted waves
The resultant radar data can be used to produce radar images.
There are many sensor-specific importers and direct read capabilities within ERDAS IMAGINE for most types of radar data. Use SAR Metadata Editor in IMAGINE Radar to attach SAR image metadata to SAR images including creating or editing the radar ephemeris.
A radar system can be airborne, spaceborne, or ground-based. Airborne radar systems have typically been mounted on civilian and military aircraft, but in 1978, the radar satellite Seasat-1 was launched. The radar data from that mission and subsequent spaceborne radar systems have been a valuable addition to the data available for use in GIS processing. Researchers are finding that a combination of the characteristics of radar data, visible and infrared data is providing a more complete picture of the Earth. In the last decade, the importance and applications of radar have grown rapidly.
Advantages of Using Radar Data
Radar data have several advantages over other types of remotely sensed imagery:
- Radar microwaves can penetrate the atmosphere day or night under virtually all weather conditions, providing data even in the presence of haze, light rain, snow, clouds, or smoke.
- Under certain circumstances, radar can partially penetrate arid and hyperarid surfaces, revealing subsurface features of the Earth.
- Although radar does not penetrate standing water, it can reflect the surface action of oceans, lakes, and other bodies of water. Surface eddies, swells, and waves are greatly affected by the bottom features of the water body, and a careful study of surface action can provide accurate details about the bottom features.
Radar Sensor Types
Radar images are generated by two different types of sensors:
- SLAR (Side-looking Airborne Radar)—uses an antenna which is fixed below an aircraft and pointed to the side to transmit and receive the radar signal. (See the figure below.)
- SAR—uses a side-looking, fixed antenna to create a synthetic aperture. SAR sensors are mounted on satellites and the NASA Space Shuttle. The sensor transmits and receives as it is moving. The signals received over a time interval are combined to create the image.
Both SLAR and SAR systems use side-looking geometry. The figure below shows a representation of an airborne SLAR system.
SLAR Radar

The figure below shows a graph of data received from the radiation transmitted in the figure above Notice how the data correspond to the terrain in the figure above. These data can be used to produce a radar image of the target area. A target is any object or feature that is the subject of the radar scan.
Received Radar Signal
Active and Passive Sensors
An active radar sensor gives off a burst of coherent radiation that reflects from the target, unlike a passive microwave sensor which simply receives the low-level radiation naturally emitted by targets.
Like coherent light from a laser, waves emitted by active sensors travel in phase and interact minimally on their way to the target area. After interaction with the target area, these waves are out of phase, interfering with each other and producing speckle noise. This is due to the different distances they travel from different targets, or single versus multiple bounce scattering.

Radar bands were named arbitrarily when radar was first developed by the military. The letter designations have no special meaning.
The C band overlaps the X band. Wavelength ranges may vary slightly among sensors.
Speckle Noise
Once out of phase, radar waves can interfere constructively or destructively to produce light and dark pixels known as speckle noise. Speckle noise in radar data must be reduced before the data can be utilized. However, the radar image processing programs used to reduce speckle noise also produce changes to the image. This consideration, combined with the fact that different applications and sensor outputs necessitate different speckle removal models, has lead Hexagon Geospatial to offer several speckle reduction algorithms.
When processing radar data, the order in which the image processing programs are implemented is crucial. This is especially true when considering removal of speckle noise. Since any image processing done before removal of the speckle results in the noise being incorporated into and degrading the image, do not rectify or in any way resample the pixel values before removing speckle noise. A rotation using nearest neighbor might be permissible.
Use IMAGINE Radar utilities to:
- import radar data into the GIS as a stand-alone source or as an additional layer with other imagery sources
- remove speckle noise
- enhance edges
- perform texture analysis
- perform radiometric correction
IMAGINE OrthoRadar™ is designed to orthorectify radar imagery.
IMAGINE InSAR™ module is designed to generate DEMs from SAR data using interferometric techniques.
IMAGINE StereoSAR DEM™ module is designed to generate DEMs from SAR data using stereoscopic techniques.
See Enhancement and Radar Concepts for more information on radar imagery enhancement.
Applications for Radar Data
Radar data can be used independently in GIS applications or combined with other satellite data, such as Landsat, SPOT, or AVHRR. Possible GIS applications for radar data include:
- Geology—radar's ability to partially penetrate land cover and sensitivity to micro relief makes radar data useful in geologic mapping, mineral exploration, and archeology.
- Classification—a radar scene can be merged with visible and infrared data as one or more additional layers in vegetation classification for timber mapping, crop monitoring, and so forth.
- Glaciology—radar imagery of ocean and ice phenomena is used for monitoring climatic change through polar ice variation.
- Oceanography—radar is used for wind and wave measurement, sea-state and weather forecasting, and monitoring ocean circulation, tides, and polar oceans.
- Hydrology—radar data are proving useful for measuring soil moisture content and mapping snow distribution and water content.
- Ship monitoring—the ability to provide day and night all-weather imaging, as well as detect ships and associated wakes, makes radar a tool that can be used for ship navigation through frozen ocean areas such as the Arctic or North Atlantic Passage.
- Offshore oil activities—radar data are used to provide ice updates for offshore drilling rigs, determining weather and sea conditions for drilling and installation operations, and detecting oil spills.
- Pollution monitoring—radar can detect oil on the surface of water and can be used to track the spread of an oil spill.

One of its primary instruments was Along-Track Scanning Radiometer (ATSR). ATSR monitors changes in vegetation of the Earth's surface.
Instruments aboard ERS-1 include: SAR Image Mode, SAR Wave Mode, Wind Scatterometer, Radar Altimeter, and Along Track Scanning Radiometer-1 (European Space Agency, 1997).
Some of the information obtained from ERS-1 and ERS-2 missions include:
- maps of the surface of the Earth through clouds
- physical ocean features and atmospheric phenomena
- maps and ice patterns of polar regions
- database information for use in modeling
- surface elevation changes
According to ESA,
. . .ERS-1 provides both global and regional views of the Earth, regardless of cloud coverage and sunlight conditions. An operational near-real-time capability for data acquisition, processing and dissemination, offering global data sets within three hours of observation, has allowed the development of time-critical applications particularly in weather, marine and ice forecasting, which are of great importance for many industrial activities (European Space Agency, 1995).

ERS-2, a radar satellite, was launched in 1995 to study the atmosphere, oceans, polar ice, and land in conjunction with ERS-1. ESA, European Space Agency, announced the end of ERS-2 mission in September 2011.
In addition to the same instruments carried aboard ERS-1, ERS-2 also carried Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment (GOME) to measure atmospheric chemistry and Microwave Radiometer (MWR) to measure snow, ice, and sea ice. GOME was one of the longest serving ozone monitors in the world.
Data obtained from ERS-2 used in conjunction with that from ERS-1 enables you to perform interferometric tasks. Using the data from the two sensors, ground movement from earthquakes can be monitored, and DEMs can be created.

SIR stands for Spaceborne Imaging Radar. SIR-A was launched and collected data in 1981. SIR-A mission built on the Seasat SAR mission that preceded it by increasing the incidence angle with which it captured images. The goal of the SIR-A mission was to collect geological information. This information did not have as pronounced a layover effect as previous imagery.
An important achievement of SIR-A data is that it was capable of penetrating surfaces to obtain information. For example, NASA says that the L-band capability of SIR-A enabled the discovery of dry river beds in the Sahara Desert.
SIR-1 used L-band, had a swath width of 50 km, a range resolution of 40 m, and an azimuth resolution of 40 m (Atlantis Scientific, Inc., 1997).
For information on OrthoRadar, which reduces layover effect, see OrthoRadar Theory.

SIR-B was launched and collected data in 1984. SIR-B improved over SIR-A by using an articulating antenna, permitting the incidence angle to range between 15 and 60 degrees. This enabled the mapping of surface features using "multiple-incidence angle backscatter signatures" (National Aeronautics and Space Administration, 1996).
SIR-B used L-band, had a swath width of 10-60 km, a range resolution of 60-10 m, and an azimuth resolution of 25 m (Atlantis Scientific, Inc., 1997).

SIR-C sensor was flown onboard two separate NASA Space Shuttle flights in 1994. Flight 1 was notable for a fully polarimetric spaceborne SAR, multi-frequency, X-band, and demonstrated ScanSAR for wide swath array. Flight 2 was notable for the first SAR to re-fly, targeted repeat-pass interferometry, and also demonstrated ScanSAR for wide swath array.

SIR-C is part of a radar system, SIR-C/X-SAR, which flew in 1994. The system is able to ". . .measure, from space, the radar signature of the surface at three different wavelengths, and to make measurements for different polarizations at two of those wavelengths" (National Aeronautics and Space Administration, 1997). Moreover, it can supply ". . .images of the magnitude of radar backscatter for four polarization combinations" (National Aeronautics and Space Administration, 1995a).
Data provided by SIR-C/X-SAR can be used to measure the following:
- vegetation type, extent, and deforestation
- soil moisture content
- ocean dynamics, wave and surface wind speeds and directions
- volcanism and tectonic activity
- soil erosion and desertification
The antenna of the system was composed of three antennas: one at L-band, one at C-band, and one at X-band. The antenna was assembled by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. The acquisition of data at three different wavelengths makes SIR-C/X-SAR data very useful. SIR-C and X-SAR do not have to be operated together: they can also be operated independent of one another.
SIR-C/X-SAR data come in resolutions from 10 to 200 m. Swath width of the sensor varies from 15 to 90 km, which depends on the direction the antenna is pointing. The system orbited the Earth at 225 km above the surface.

TanDEM-X mission is to fly in tandem with TerraSAR-X, recording data synchronously to acquire the data basis for a global DEM from uniform sources.
TanDEM-X, launched in 2010, is nearly identical to TerraSAR-X. Both are collecting data simultaneously from different angles. The images are processed into accurate elevation maps with 12 meter resolution and vertical accuracy better than 2 meters. Over the three-year mission, images of the Earth's entire land surface will be collected several times. Notably, TanDEM-X and TerraSAR-X satellites together are the first configurable synthetic aperture radar interferometer in space.
TanDEM-X is a German satellite manufactured in a public private partnership between the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and Astrium GmbH.

Secrets Of Authentic Tai Chi
Tai Chi Chi Kung can be divided into two parts: the still meditative practice and the moving meditative practice. There are many
Figure 3-30.
different sets of moving patterns, each with its own unique purpose and benefits. We will discuss the still meditative practices in this section, and the moving ones in the next section.
Before we start, there are several important concepts which you should understand. As explained in the second chapter, compared with the moving Tai Chi Chuan which is classified as Yang, the still meditation is classified as Yin. Again, in Tai Chi still meditation, the sitting meditation is considered Yin, while the standing still meditation is considered Yang. In both cases the physical body is still, calm, and relaxed as much as possible, and therefore the body is classified as Yin, while the Chi generated and circulated in the Yin body is classified as Yang.
There are a number of other differences between sitting and standing still meditation. First, in the sitting meditation the physical body is relaxed to the maximum, while in the standing meditation the physical body is relatively tensed in certain areas. Second, sitting meditation builds up the Chi through Nei Dan (Internal Elixir) training and completing the Small Circulation (Sheau Jou Tian), while the standing meditation builds up the Chi in the limbs through Wai Dan (External Elixir) practice. In the sitting meditation, the Chi is built up in the Lower Dan Tien, which is the residence of Original Chi. It is located about one to two inches below the navel. The main goal of sitting meditation is to remove all blockages causing stagnation of the Chi flow in the Conception and Governing Vessels. However, the goal of standing still meditation is to build up the Chi by using certain postures which cause tension in specific muscles, energizing them and increasing their level of Chi. Therefore, in the Yin sitting meditation, the body and the mind are both calm, while in the Yang standing meditation, although the mind is calm, the physical body is excited to a degree. If you are interested in learning more about Nei Dan and Wai Dan Chi Kung, you should read the author's book "Chi Kung - Health and Martial Arts."
In this section we will discuss sitting still meditation for the Small Circulation. However, IF YOU ARE A CHI KUNG BEGINNER, WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU DO NOT START THIS TRAINING ON YOUR OWN NOW Nei Dan Chi Kung is hard to understand and experience, especially for Chi Kung beginners. If you do not understand the training theory and practice correctly, you may injure yourself. Wai Dan standing meditation is generally much safer. We are presenting the following discussion for your information, but you should wait until you understand Chi Kung and this training fairly well before you start the practice on your own.

text: Sydney - Eastern Australia was bracing for severe "off the scale" fire conditions on Sunday as it baked in a heatwave that has broken temperature records and sparked dire warnings from authorities.While bushfires are common in Australia's arid summer, climate change has pushed up land and sea temperatures and led to more extremely hot days and severe fire seasons."The conditions for Sunday are the worst possible conditions when it comes to fire danger ratings," New South Wales (NSW) state Rural Fire Service Commissioner Shane Fitzsimmons told reporters on Friday."They are catastrophic, they are labelled catastrophic for a reason, they are rare, they are infrequent, and to put it simply, they are off the old conventional scale."It's not another summer's day. It's not another bad fire weather day. This is as bad as it gets in these circumstances."FiresFitzsimmons said on Sunday afternoon several homes may have been lost in bushfires across the state, but there were no reports as yet of injuries to firefighters or residents.Further north in Queensland, the Bureau of Meteorology said numerous February temperature records were being broken across the state as the mercury soared above 40 degrees Celsius.Temperature records were also breached across NSW on Saturday, the weather bureau said.Cooler conditions were forecast to come through later Sunday, although "still large areas above 40C", it added.Rainfall downAustralia has warmed by approximately 1.0 C since 1910, according to the biannual State of the Climate report from the Bureau of Meteorology and national science body CSIRO released in October.The number of days each year that post temperatures of more than 35C was increasing in recent decades except in northern Australia, the report said.Meanwhile, rainfall has reduced by 19 percent between May to July in southwestern Australia since 1970."Black Saturday", the worst firestorm in recent years, devastated the southern state of Victoria in 2009, razing thousands of homes and killing 173 people.

We have helped dozens of people create the change they want in their lives, but don't take my word for it! Read about their experiences below.
I've been going to Daneaya and Carla for about a year. I initially went in, in hopes of changing some aspects in my life. I found out quickly my whole life would be changed and I would be gaining life time friends. My life has been transformed and each time I go I gain tools to help me in my everyday life. We have worked on clearing past traumas, working with triggers as well as healing my brain and body. Every time I leave a session I feel lighter and release a lot the following days. Hypnosis has helped me work with subconscious healing and rewiring of the aspects I wanted to change. Body talk helps deepen the hypnosis and clear my physical issues. I am so grateful to have found these two, thank you for helping me become who I am today!
I came to Daneaya and Carla in desperate need of help. I was depressed and anxious beyond measure; barely functioning on a day to day basis. Not only have they helped me to get back up on my feet, but they have helped to me to rediscover my joy in life and in myself. They are both an absolute joy to be around too! I can't think of two better people on the whole planet and I can't imagine going to anyone else for the wonderful services that they provide.
My husband and I have had wonderful and surprising results from the time spent with Carla and Daneaya. My husband was referred by a friend of his that had fantastic success with her personal situation, so we thought we would give it a try. We have each had appointments with the ladies and have compared our experiences with each other. It is quite apparent that the connection that this team has is very beneficial to the patients. We have noticed an overall feeling of relaxation and calm that will carry on into the rest of the day and points forward. With both of us employed, it is rare that we feel relaxed and calm on most days. We will be exploring the other treatment options that are available from Daneaya and Carla. We are both very satisfied, appreciative and happy we connected with this team.
I've been seeing Daneaya for about a year and recently had a session with both these amazing healers (Danayea and Carla), and the changes I have seen and felt in myself are truly astounding. I have longed to feel the peace in my heart and head for years. Working with these beautiful souls has afforded me not only peace but a deep understanding of this long journey. Thank you both for the freedom I never knew existed. I am forever grateful.
In addition to my own healing Carla and Daneaya did distant healing on my Grandson while he was in the hospital, (he had terrible accident and required some pretty big surgery) and a lot of healing Jack made a miraculous turnaround within a day of these beauties working on him. (Fr totally intubated to walking across the room in 24 hrs). So Blessed.
Over a year ago I began working with Daneaya and Carla for Hypnotherapy and Body Talk.
The space they create for deep transformation impacted me dramatically, so much so that I brought my husband and children to them as well. We were all immediately very comfortable with them. Through our sessions we are confident that the healing process in our lives is supported by the work they do. I have sent friends to Daneaya and Carla as well, and they too have seen it phenomenal results, as we all come into sessions looking to accomplish different things. It's a joy in my life to know these two beautiful humans, I am grateful for their guidance, and look forward to continuing to work with them through the years.
I began my hypnotherapy treatments with Daneaya, only to hear her talk about this amazing woman named Carla. When Daneaya told me her and Carla were starting to offer combo sessions of Bodytalk and Hypnotherapy, I just had to try it out. I have a fair bit of physical pain throughout my spine and pelvis due to a long torso and hyper-mobility, so I'm willing to try anything to feel better. After my first session, I left feeling like I was walking on air, virtually pain-free!! I love self-work, and if you've ever dug deep into your subconscious mind with hypnotherapy you know that it can get pretty intense and emotional. While Daneaya held excellent space and helped me raise my vibration, Carla's magical Bodytalk helped me stay grounded. The combo of hypnosis working on my subconscious mind while Carla works on my physical body is a breathtaking and miraculous experience. I have tried MANY different healing modalities with MANY different practitioners, and while I believe every one helped some, these two women combined together sped things up exponentially. I prefer to work out my issues as quickly and efficiently as possible, rather than dragging them out over long periods of time. It's like taking a rocket to the moon VS a bus. Thank you Carla & Daneaya for everything you've done and continue to do in support of my health and well-being. I look forward to continuing to work together!
Hi Carla. I'm reaching out to let you know how much I appreciate you. Your hard work and amazing insight is giving me an amazing life experience, I am so happy to have met someone like you and share this incredible energy together. Thanks for everything you do

Viewing other participants responses in Quizmaker
I'm wondering if Quizmaker is capable of creating a quiz with interactive feedback regarding how others have answered the same questions? I'm including a screenshot of what I'm referring to for reference. Basically I'm looking to create a quiz that would live in the LMS, however I want participants to be able to see how their colleagues have answered the same questions.
1 Reply
Hi, Katie -- Thanks for your question! May I ask if you have inquired with your LMS directly to see if they can recommend a way to chart or graph all participant responses? And would you be able to share the name of the LMS you use in case others in the community utilize the same service and can offer some insight?
You may also want to see somewhat similar discussions (even though they are for Storyline instead of Quizmaker) here and here for some additional info. :)

The Brief
Visit Huntington Beach, the official destination marketing organization of Huntington Beach, California was looking for a unique way to attract visitors and bring a national spotlight to the city also known as "Surf City USA."
Their marketing team wanted to showcase Huntington Beach as the ideal destination for vacationers and business travelers alike while highlighting the beloved outdoor tradition that has made the city famous.
The Solution
The Record: Keeping in theme with Surf City's tagline, Visit Huntington Beach decided to attempt the Guinness World Records™ title for the Most people riding a surfboard. Timed to coincide with International Surfing Day on June 21st, Visit Huntington Beach enlisted 66 amateurs and professionals to ride a custom built 42-foot, 1300-pound surfboard for a minimum of 12 seconds. The surfboard was later certified as being the Largest surfboard in the world.
Event Day Engagement: The attempt drew thousands of spectators who filled the shore to watch history being made. Numerous news stations were also on hand to record the attempt, ensuring that millions of viewers saw Huntington Beach's record-breaking achievement.
Post Attempt Promotion: Visit Huntington Beach capitalized on achieving the record for the Largest surfboard by displaying the surfboard at the International Surfing Museum in Downtown Huntington Beach.
"Having the most riders on the world's largest surfboard for 12 seconds during Huntington Beach's Epic Big Board Ride was a once in lifetime global event. You can't create a more effective marketing and PR project, which solidified our community residents and millions of Huntington Beach brand ambassadors under one umbrella, Surf City USA, Guinness World Records holder!"

Handheld game consoles have certainly came a long way since Nintendo released their iconic Game Boy in 1989. Now the handheld gaming has created a 2 billion dollar market for itself. But in the present context, statistics have rather shown a dip in revenues for portable gaming consoles, from $2.7 billion in 2009 to roughly $2.4 billion in 2010 (in the U.S.). Perhaps in a bid to defy the situation, Sony is about to release their NGP (Next Generation Portable), and surely coming hot on its trail is the all new Samsung Consolor HD3.
The set has that ubiquitous "super oval" shape with subdued yet pristine finishes. But what we are interested in is about the "cool" paraphernalia inside this contraption, and of course Samsung doesn't disappoint us here. This remarkable device will actually epitomize the grand fusion of a console, a phone and a tablet. It will come with advanced features such as a 16:9 full HD AMOLED multitouch display, a HD stereo speaker system and even the unique fingerprint identification for gamers.
As far as the delightful gaming experience is concerned, the device will have 250GB of memory, a gyroscope, accelerometer, light sensor and even advanced zooming. And coming to the mobile-esque side, we will have a front 8MP HD camera and a 12MP rear one, with smile detectors. The OS will include an Android lakay Market and Interface complete with 2000 games and multitasking. But the definitive feature that really does stand out from the rest, will be its mode of charging, which will be inductive (wireless energy transfer).

What you need to apply
Divide your existing credit card balance by your credit limit. Multiply that number by 100. The result is your credit ultilisation ratio, a measure of how much of your total available credit you use. It is commonly recommended to keep your total credit utilization rate below 30%.
Credit Providers consider your credit utilization rate when calculating a credit score for you. This can impact up to 30% of your credit score, depending on the scoring model being used.
A low credit utilization rate shows you're using less of your available credit. Credit scoring models generally interpret this as an indication you're doing a good job managing credit by not overspending, and keeping your spending in check can help you reach higher credit scores. Having a higher credit score makes it easier to secure additional credit for example, to take out vehicle finance or a home loan.
