I get a lot of Questions on How to Trade our Structured Chart Models, this video has 5 min starter explanation at 1:00 min-6:00 min. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrXbE7lojAg&t=3s … – Fibonacci Trend-lines, Trading structure/quads, Price targets, Main support resistance (buy sell triggers), Time cycles, Moving averages, Trading trims/adds.
Watching time-cycle expiry / inflection for a direction in to next late Dec and then late Dec in to first quarter time cycle 2019.
There is a volatility time-cyle (monthly) coming in at Dec 5 so we are looking for a possible bounce in to that date and shortly thereafter.
Watching EIA closely today for structure in the current trading quad, it has been constructive of late.
Possible short $DWT on the day based on rise in premarket.
Nov 21 – Looking at possible retrace to .5 on oil (per last move), possible short in Natural Gas (DGAZ) and watching equities very close for supports to bounce and hold.
Time cycle dates expiring in markets for big moves…. started end of July, next Oct 10, Nov 11, mid Dec big in to Q1 19. Distributing trading models starting tonight for time frames in expectation for #Oil, #Gold, #Silver, #Bitcoin, #SP500, #Volatility, #USD It's big, watch.
Further to that public Twitter post, over next two quarters I expect the equity markets to continue under serious pressure in to rates, after a technical retracement oil to skyrocket unless Trump can get a handle on the price somehow (trying with Saudi's now), Dollar likely to spike hard for some time then fall off a cliff, volatility to increase, Gold and Silver get up and going soon and Crypto to fly. That's my bias, thesis, trading plan in to next two quarters. Timing will be key. All of our reporting will reflect this near term and will also focus on key swing trading set-ups within themes.
Time cycle dates expiring in markets for big moves…. started end of July, next Oct 10, Nov 11, mid Dec big in to Q1 19. Distributing trading models starting tonight for time frames in expectation for #Oil, #Gold, #Silver, #Bitcoin, #SP500, #Volatility, #USD It's big, watch.
Markets as of 7:51 AM: US Dollar $DXY trading 97.36, Oil FX $USOIL ($WTI) trading 51.45, Gold $GLD trading 1214.15, Silver $SLV trading 14.15, $SPY 269.70 (premarket trade), Bitcoin $BTC.X $BTCUSD $XBTUSD 4017.00 and $VIX trading 18.6.
Wayfair shares soar premarket after company says direct retail sales rose 58% over holiday weekend.
Please refer to the date at top left of each chart (charts are often carried forward for some time). Trade alerts and stock chart set-ups should be traded as decision to decision process – when the trade set-up fails cut your position fast. Leg in to the winners at key resistance and support (at retracement or breach) and exit the losers fast based on technical support and resistance. Not all set-ups work, the purpose of technical analysis is to provide the framework for your trade (the chart structure enables the trader to set stops where a trade is a failed trade and leg in to winners and trim winners per the chart). The purpose of trade alerts is to bring awareness of the trade set-up in play but you have to execute the trade based on your trading strategy that should be harnessed in your rules based process.
There have been a few paper cuts executed on machine trading side in oil trade last few days – report will detail when released.
Machine trade in oil top tick hit perfect 67.62 to penny HOD, trimmed added numerous all win side and closed 90% 66.83. Nice trade.
Crude oil trade in to open yesterday: Nailed the Crude Oil Short in Trading Room at Open.
Trade alert this morning to trim Silver and add above: Trimming Silver 14.78 per price target will add above.
Trade alert yesterday : Long Silver 14.63 target 14.78 tight stops.

This was an intra-day time cycle trade. I win when I respect time cycles, lose when I don't. It is that simple.
If you are new to our trading service you should review recent blog posts, the Compound Trading YouTube Channel and at minimum our algorithm Twitter feeds because they do tell a story in terms of the market and how the inflections of the market determine our day to day trading. You will notice the algorithmic modelling has been undeniably accurate with many time-frames (intra-day, weeks and months out) so I myself have learned to respect the math (they have taken me from a 60% hit rate to 80%+ all publicly posted live trade alerts).
I do trade morning momo stocks, but I do avoid much of the day trading risk (preferring to daytrade only what is structurally set-up also on the swing trade side and to my advantage in the algorithmic model charting). I often avoid the first 30 minutes (gap and go) and trade momentum stocks or structured (per explanation in previous sentence) stocks later in day after a wash-out looking for a snap-back trade that can possibly also become a strong swing or longer term trade that I can leg in to. Just prior to open and shortly after open I post momentum stocks to the trade chat room (and Twitter and Stocktwits if I have time).

I get a lot of Q's on How to Trade our models, this vid has 5 min explanation at 1:00 min-6:00 min. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrXbE7lojAg&t=3s … – Fib Trendlines, Trading structure/quads, Price targets, Main support resistance (buy sell triggers), Time cycles, Moving averages, Trading trims/adds.
As I expected, the trade set-ups from Trading Boot Camp alarmed and we've had some great trades since. The markets have some really decent setups still, today may be soft but a turn out of that softness is likely early week or at latest mid next week (see video reports the last few days for set-ups).
1. Many charts need rest = target select opportunities, they're there.
2. Range bound, coils etc breaking \ near break = bigger opportunity.
3. Time cycles = knowing what should be on high watch.
All reports out b4 market open Monday.
Have a swing trade in $CRON that is going well, trimming and adding per chart model that has been a great help.
Have a swing trade in $BABA under water on 1 1/10 sizing entry, watching for adds.
Really like $FB snap-back set-up here, watching the 50 MA overhead on the chart model, it keeps paying every time we trade it.
Also really like $NFLX set-up here, it has been a regular and consistent pay day with the simple chart model dialed in.
Oil I've missed a few sweet spots this week but continue to watch, not every trader can be on top of every instrument 100% of the time (I keep telling myself haha). Anyway, I'll start hitting it out of the park again with patience. Hopefully today a set-up on the EPIC model allows some size.
SHOPIFY $SHOP has been a great set-up for a possible break upside the quad time cycle peak, support has held well for traders that have taken longs on the set-up. It could blow through the top of that quad on the time cycle peak coming, if it does it will be a significant extension up.
$NBEV trade has been fantastic, paying the bills for sure. Chart resistance and support areas worked well. Trade alert was good on NBEV.
$GTHX is a tad wild but managed well it has been a good trade for us.
And $AGN of course continues to pay on large sizing with trims and adds from the charting and trade plans published over last number of weeks.
Watching $BKRS for a long, looks decent for a swing trade.
The videos this week and the boot camp trade set-up reviews have been right in the flow of the market. We're working on the rest of the equities we follow now and will have them all out over the next few days. Today in mid-day review I will tackle some more of the set-ups.
Markets as of 7:08 AM: US Dollar $DXY trading 94.11, Oil FX $USOIL ($WTI) trading 7187, Gold $GLD trading 1199.03, Silver $SLV trading 14.30, $SPY 291.56 (previous close), Bitcoin $BTC.X $BTCUSD $XBTUSD 6595.00 and $VIX trading 12.4.
Please refer to the date at top left of each chart (charts are often carried forward for some time). Trade any charting set-up decision to decision, when the set-up fails be sure to cut your position fast. Leg in to the winners and exit the losers fast based on technical support and resistance. Not all set-ups work, the purpose of technical analysis is to provide the framework for your trade (the chart structure enables the trader to set stops where a trade is a failed trade and leg in to winners and trim winners per the chart).
Jefferies on $AMRN Model U.S.peak sales could reach $2B, ~$15/share (upside scenario). See M&A potential. Share could trade up into AHA Meeting and sNDA approval.

Post Market Wednesday Nov 30 OPEC, OIL, $USOIL, $UWTI, $GENE, $SCON, $SGY $CRC, $SDRL $NE $RIG and more.
Review of my Chat Room Stock Day Trades and Alerts for Wednesday Nov 30, 2016. OPEC, OIL, $USOIL, $UWTI, $GENE, $SCON, $SGY $CRC, $SDRL $NE $RIG and more.
Today was a day of review of inflecton point charts in $USD/JPY, $SILVER, $GOLD, $DXY, $SPY, $NATGAS etc. Spent some time in the afternoon going over levels to watch.
Nobody nowhere ever has EPIC hit rate – none.
And @RosietheAlgo and @SuperNovaAlgo won't be far behind. The other three are likely a few months yet. Existing subs will be grandfathered (which is how it will work with all our algos as they roll out).
Why am I on about all this? Cause we get a lot of "special" people on social media etc… gets a little long in the tooth sometimes.
Also, we are waiting for OPEC decision. I am long $UWTI from late Friday.
Wednesday was in fact about oil. Epic nailed the target at 10:30 predicted last week on his feed and we reviewed in detail the new algo targets. It was also about oil companies and shippers got a bit jiggy and yes $GENE and $SCON got ramp room.
I see $GOLD and $SILVER are once again testing Rosie and SuperNova's price targets in overnight.
My $UWTI long…I sold too early – I can do the math on the algo but I can't trade it like I know math. Pure and simple.
So far we've play $GOLD and $SILVER right waiting for the inflection trend reverse.
I haven't taken a trade on recently, perhaps should have entered on this most recent pull-back, looking for position soon again.
The $SPY play I had set properly prior to election has played out exactly as predicted and didn't really capitalize like I could have so far – but it hasn't exactly been a face ripper like Brexit or last Jan or last Sept (all of which I caught) – it's been much more orderly so I've spent my energy preparing for the trend reverse.
I AM GOING LONG $SPY SOON. And then it should tank sometime between Christmas and May – we'll see. Should.
09:09 am Curtis M : Running scans – back before open.
09:44 am Curtis M : Resistance test on crude here.
10:20 am GSCT . : Yes! Hahaha.
10:21 am susan woo : Its like a Kandinsky painting!
10:21 am GSCT . : Lol.
10:42 am GSCT . : I don't doubt the algo I'm just not clear how to trade using them exactly. And the chart as is is very cluttered to my eye.
10:49 am GSCT . : It would be easier to see without theall the horizontal purple lines.
11:01 am Curtis M : Email any questions you have plz thanks!
11:07 am GSCT . : Can the screen in screensharing be enlarged so there aren't fat white borders around it?
03:50 pm Curtis M : Well I'm calling it a day – now that OPEC is behind us maybe we get a direction in market over next few days. Room open till 4 ish. Best!
03:50 pm StockMaven S : Thanks!
03:57 pm GSCT . : ?
03:58 pm GSCT . : Exp and prod.
Post Market Tuesday Nov 29 $CBMX, $GLBS, $DRYS, $SHIP, OPEC, $UWTI, OIL and more.
Review of my Chat Room Stock Day Trades and Alerts for Tuesday Nov 29, 2016. $CBMX, $GLBS, $DRYS, $SHIP, $UWTI, OPEC, $USOIL, $WTI, OIL and more.
Today was a day of review of inflecton point charts in $USD/JPY, $SILVER, $GOLD, $DXY, $SPY, $NATGAS etc. Spent some time in the afternoon going over levels to watch. As we get in to Dec with members only I will be reviewing in more depth including algorithm details. So this will be normal practice in quiet periods in room. I am also booking some guest speakers for those times.
Also, we are waiting for OPEC decison. I am long $UWTI from late Friday.
And then there were the Shippers and some BIO runners today for those of us tired of sitting on our hands during inflection – I made my donation – twice.
I took a trade on $UWTI at the wrong time on the chart – didn't get on right side of it. I sold in morning to be sure I got out (OPEC has me pensive) and then took a position later when it "looked like" price action was going to get away on me —-> FOMO is what that is called. Oh well, can't win them all – haven't lost it yet – but definitely on wrong side of trade so far and that's not the edge a trader wants.
So now it's hard to say – in overnight trading oil is up 4.83%.
$CBMX, this is my LESSON OF THE DAY. I don't know how many times I have to learn this one…. cut fast. Anyway, I'm under water on it so we'll see. It is a smaller position in my swing account so it isn't that concerning but still a bad move. The way I play this is to hammer down two more times at inflection points on the wash-out with tight stops.
09:17 am Curtis M : .
12:23 pm charles wilks : still think cbmx will get to 5$?
02:29 pm GSCT . : What do you think Curtis?
02:33 pm GSCT . : Thanks.
Post Market Monday Nov 28 OPEC, FOMO, $PZRX, $GLBS, $UWTI, $USOIL, $WTI, OIL and more.
Review of my Chat Room Stock Day Trades and Alerts for Monday Nov 28, 2016. OPEC, FOMO, $PZRX, GURU Posts, $GLBS, $UWTI, $USOIL, $WTI, OIL and more.
Second quiet day in a row for me. There were some runners today $PZRX, $AIRI, $EPIX $HTBX, $TIME and a few more…. but didn't catch any – small cap bios really. $GLBS got halted and offering of course and tank – a LESSON THERE FOR SURE – very dangerous plays they are. I love the GURUS that post their short positions after the halt – whatever. And the standard plays (Gold, Silver, Dollar, etc) we work with are still at inflection but it looks like that's almost over. Tomorrow is GDP and EIA and other interesting things like OPEC are coming soon.
So far we've play $GOLD and $SILVER right waiting for the inflection trend reverse. The $SPY play I had set properly prior to election has played out exactly as predicted and didn't really capitalize like I could have so far – but it hasn't exactly been a face ripper like Brexit or last Jan or last Sept (all of which I caught) – it's been much more orderly so I've spent my energy preparing for the trend reverse.
So hopefully things pick up a bit soon. Of course I know they will. Patience.
02:05 pm susan woo : I recall lyou mention last week that silver algo said 90ish% that this would be a good run back up instead of a dead cat?
02:06 pm Curtis M : Was that by voce or in writing?
03:11 pm Curtis M : Thats it for me. Will leave room open till 4. Have a great night!!!
03:13 pm Megatrend M : u too!


Recently I returned from a client photo shoot and drafted this list of helpful creative director secrets to help you produce professional and effective results. It's about details because the camera sees it all. Every photo shoot—from a big screen major motion picture, to images for your hospital or office—deserves careful attention.
It's fun to watch one of those major motion picture extras that reveal "the making of…[this movie]." There may be one or two people in the scene. But just behind the camera there's an army of professionals who look after every tiny detail. Really. Every detail.
After all, these big-screen folks are working with a budget in the millions, and nobody wants to waste a dime. Scale this over to your hospital marketing project. Typically, the budget is modest (from "a little something" to "D-I-Y-nada"). Nevertheless, there's no margin for a waste of time or money. And the final product still needs to be first-class.
Bring in professional help if you can. If the budget permits, invest in experienced help. A pro photographer has the equipment and skills. An executive creative director can help guide the project for marketing effectiveness.
Give everyone an early-warning notice. Let the staff and entire organization know which day or days you will be shooting. People appreciate the heads-up notice although it's bound to be a distraction. Remind everyone to look their best, and that desks, workspace and office environment need to be professional and shipshape.
Use your fresh eyes approach. Look critically at all your available spaces—from reception to treatment rooms, to exteriors. Look for open, attractive and inviting areas where patients would feel comfortable. Therefore, creatively consider how any given space can be used in photos.
Sometimes an area that you would not normally think of using can work. For example, on this shoot we used a nice looking hallway area that was previously ignored. As a result, this creative use added visual interest for the final product.
Spotless and professional. Critically inspect all spaces seen by the camera. You want areas that are tidy, clean and professional looking. Don't take a photo in a room with clutter, with patient information visible or where old technology is evident.
Yes, "makeup and costumes." You don't need to "go Hollywood," but be sure that everyone looks his or her best. Have sparkling uniforms or office attire, as well as makeup, hairspray so that your photos need minimum retouching. For doctors (and perhaps other providers in the office), take photos with a lab coat as well as regular clothing. Variety of attire gives you flexibility where you might need different types of shots of the same people.
Shoot the staff. Photos that include everyone in the office—individually and collectively—are great for morale and professional pride. People picture create a human touch. And they are always useful in "welcome to the practice" or "about us" marketing materials or website.
Ok, everyone…smile and look friendly. Enough said.
Technology and equipment photos? Yes. Be prepared to include specialized equipment, especially if your field or specialty relies on the latest technology.
Plan for a first-class photo shoot that presents healthcare delivery in a warm and welcoming point of view. Call experienced help if possible, and plan details carefully in advance.
As with any photo shoot, remember that the final quality of work is known by what you show. So, for the greatest professional advantage, take a lot of pictures. As a result you'll give yourself the greatest flexibility and options, and show the truly best images.
And please give me a call if you're planning new photography for marketing. We'd be pleased to work with you for a fantastic photo shoot.

Some people suffer from insomnia during Dilaudid withdrawal.
While benzodiazepines are known to be addictive, they are still commonly prescribed because of their beneficial therapeutic effect.
Recently 1 in 7 teens reported using prescription drugs to get high in the past 12 months.
Because prescription drugs are legal, they are easily accessible, often from a home medicine cabinet. Further, some individuals who misuse prescription drugs, particularly teens, believe these substances are safer than illicit drugs because they are prescribed by a healthcare professional.
Drug abuse is an unfortunate reality in all parts of the country, and the issue of drug abuse in Potosi, MO. is no different. Men and women in Potosi, Missouri are not just abusing illicit street drugs, but there is a very widespread and insidious issue of nonmedical use of prescription drugs which affects just as many people if not more. Drug abuse has not only impacted the adult residents in Potosi, Missouri, but youth are becoming more and more prone to use drugs at even earlier ages. Marijuana and prescription drugs are now the drugs of choice amongst youth in Potosi, and this can have dire consequences for their future and future generations if not curbed.
To assist with this problem, rehabilitation in Potosi, Missouri is offered to deliver effective treatment to men and women who are caught up in drug abuse but want to put an end to it. Even if people are in denial about their drug abuse, friends and family members can intervene and take steps to get them into drug rehabilitation in Potosi, Missouri by holding a drug intervention. Intervention participants can receive help in doing so from expert treatment counselors and even a professional interventionist. This has proven very effective in getting men and women into drug rehabilitation in Potosi, MO. who may have normally been lost to a life of drug abuse.
Once in drug treatment in Potosi, Missouri, men and women will be put through an intensive treatment curriculum that will start with a safe drug or alcohol detox. Once this has been completed and the individual is no longer high or going through withdrawal, they can put all of their attention on dealing with the emotional and psychological difficulties which started their drug abuse. Unless these issues are resolved through counseling and other confirmed treatment techniques, they will never have a shot at staying abstinent or sober. With this help, they will not only be able to stay off of drugs for good, but they will also have a better quality of life.

A student of famous illustrator and painter Gustave Dore had just finished a painting of Jesus and handed it to him for his critique. Dore studied it, his mind searching for the right words. At last he handed it back to the student. "If you loved Him more," he said, "you would have painted Him better"—Gene Geyer, Windows of the Soul, p. 172, Zondervan Pub., 1996.
That's a great statement. A person needs to know God before he can adequately paint Him with the brush, or even with words—with a verbal picture. In our continuing study of Bible characters, we are viewing a portrait gallery containing various pictures of the character of God.
I believe a study of Abraham's life can be great prep for this test, which differs for each of us. The big question is: how do we know we will be prepared for it? Or if we conclude we are not prepared, how can we prepare ourselves?


After months of planning, the Viet Cong were near Long Tan and ready to attack. . .
Based on extensive research into actual events this is a fictionalised retelling of the Battle of Long Tan, told from the Viet Namese side.
Quang felt a slight guilt at the ease with which he had finally made his destiny become a reality. The whole Australian base will be a ruin on the morning of the 15th. Allowing for some soldiers to not be in base and for others to survive the debacle, there will still be more than 1000 Australians killed, maybe 1500. Their country couldn't support such a loss - it would have to withdraw all its remaining troops. Probably the Australian government would fall. The American aggressors will be shown to be powerless to prevent the slaughter of its only independent ally. The puppet regime will see the weakness of the Americans and not trust them to protect their own forces. This will change the course of the whole war.
An Australian military base is established around a hill in South Viet Nam. Two battalions strong. The Viet Cong and North Vietnamese Army draw up a plan to eliminate the base and draw up eight battalions for the task .
But the plan was thwarted when the Vietnamese forces ran into an Australian company in the Long Tan rubber plantation.
This is a fictionalised account of the events leading up to the battle of Long Tan based on detailed research by Dave Sabben, one of the Australian platoon commanders in the battle.
Dave Sabben was an Australian platoon leader who survived the battle. He is one of the authors of The Battle of Long Tan As told By the Commanders to Bob Grandin published by Allen + Unwin in 2004.

William Alexander Coulter
Alexander Coulter, born in 1849 to an Irish captain in the Coast Guard, went to sea at thirteen for seven years as an apprentice. In his off-duty hours he was a self-taught artist who sketched and painted. He moved to San Francisco in 1869 where a serious ankle injury forced him ashore. He began working as a sailmaker while painting and exhibiting with the San Francisco Art Association. In the late 1870s he studied painting in Europe for three years with several well-known marine artists. In 1896 he became the staff waterfront artist for the newspaper "San Francisco Call" where his pen and ink sketches were printed daily until the 1906 earthquake and fire. He shared a studio on Montgomery Street for a short while with landscape painter Hiram Bloomer and was friends with fellow maritime artist Gideon Denny. He lived in Sausalito in a house a few feet from the waterfront and it was there that he died in 1936. He painted and sketched for 67 years, had his final show in 1934 when he was 85, and had a painting on his easel at the time of his death. Coulter's son James described him as a "gentleman artist," a small man with a Van Dyke beard, cane, and nautical cap and tie, most often seen with a painting or sketchbook under his arm (Nolte, 2005).
Coulter was a prolific realistic painter of maritime subjects that recorded in fine detail all manner of vessels in the San Francisco Bay. His ship portraits were in demand in the 1880s and 1890s by ship captains and owners. Coulter's most famous work, San Francisco Fire 1906, depicted the flotilla that rescued over thirty thousand people from the earthquake and fire in the largest maritime rescue effort in U.S. history. As an interesting aside, in this painting he depicted the newspaper office for the Call in flames, perhaps in a pique for having lost his job there after the earthquake. His five panel mural for the Merchants Exchange Building painted in 1909-1920 was his most important commission (Hughes, 2002). His murals can still be seen in the building which now houses a bank.
He was an expert seaman and his intimate knowledge of sea going vessels infused his paintings with realism and minute detail which preserved a visual chronicle of ships and sailing technology that was gradually disappearing. He is known as the American West Coast's premier maritime artist during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He produced 1,000 paintings and it's estimated he made 5,000 drawings for the San Francisco Call. A 1943 Liberty Ship was named the S.S. William A. Coulter was named in his honor at the Kaiser Shipyard in Richmond, California. The Society of California Pioneers has four of Coulter's ship paintings.

Mewtwo's X form from Pokemon X.
I did take a look at kadapunny's Mega Mewtwo X hack, and I found its effort's result very nice, so I decided to make Brawl-style HD textures for his Mega Mewtwo X model, so here you go, these only work on normal Lucario.
PS, it is Project MEWTWO'S Mewtwo PSA compatible.
Hope you enjoy this, it's the first attempt for Mega Mewtwo X on Brawl Hacking, also I personally do really like how these textures specially the Shadow texture ended up, so take care and enjoy!
Hello, it seems I am reported for not having a good enough quality for my photos. Before I make my Mega Scizor, does anybody have suggestions to take photos? I'm using my 3ds.
Still not the best but, WOULD YOU LOOK AT THAT? Just when I upload Mega Charizard X, somebody makes a better version! I do have to say it is good, but seriously? Can you BE more suspicious? What, do you want- oh whatever, it must be a coincidence. Anywho, I hope you enjoy.
I'm sorry, but this is my first hack and I haven't tested it (because everybody is busy with watching youtube videos about cats and I can't seem to work with my wii) so if you find any problems, just tell me I'll totally make a new version. At long last! Some not lazy person makes a Mega Charizard! Took someone long enough. It wasn't that hard at all. I just had to edit the wings, and the nose and some other small details a bit, then make the colors different. Real simple, a CSP comes with the zip. Thanks for reading this.

I have used custom types in my WCF service, and I have decorated them with "DataContract" and "Serializable" both attributes.

I have a Pulsacoil A-Class Boiler which worked fine until this morning and then just stopped.
No lights are showing on the switch panel (Green switch or the two neons above). The switch itelf does make and break mains power. Without being able to power it up, I'm not sure what I can check - I am able to check most things with a multimeter once I know the likely source of the problem.
External wiring is all OK and I have checked that power is coming into the unit itself so it's definately an internal problem.
The elements show continiuity and are not shorting.
Can anyone give any pointers or, if not, a reasonably priced engineer who covers Watford?
Any power to the relays?
I managed to sort the boiler out five minutes before I got your reply. Thanks for your help though.
I went through it with a multimeter rather than a simple mains tester and found that the non-timed power input was not very good.
The fused spur showed a fault (how that happened is a mystery) and I replaced it - the boiler sparng into life.


"Industry standard program works well"
It's a very powerful rendering and drawing engine with a lot of options for kinds of drawing, and since it's a BIM program the potential for asset management is tremendous if you use it right. VW also allows plugins and the creation of custom tools without TOO much headache, down to a very granular level of control which though daunting, can be very very useful in streamlining workflow.
It's a very steep learning curve, with a lot in the way of basics tutorials for tools, but not a lot in the way of "so you want to do this thing - here's how you might tackle that task"
The behavior of lighting in the program is also pretty subpar, and in order to get Cinema 4D to make light behave better you have to shell out even more money. It's already VERY expensive.
You will spend a lot of time learning it. Much of that learning will be on the forums, or asking other experienced users for help. VW has good customer service if you can get through the phone walls, which is tedious. If you are a member of service select, you get access to tutorials for free.
I only need VW and Lightwright to do most of my work. That's the key benefit, and it interfaces with the other program fairly seamlessly in order to streamline the work more. I can make changes to the file by changing the LW and without needing to double check every single element of my plot.
Also, layering and classing being different elements, has been really powerful as I've come to use the two ideas in tandem more. It's another level of visibility and drawing control over AutoCADs layering system.
"The industry standard for a reason"
Vectorworks spotlights and it's product libraries make it the industry standard for a reason. It's so easy to jump in and start designing shows in whatever format or fashion you want, from 2D plots to 3D renders, even to VR/AR renderings and previz work. Truly a one-stop design shop for Entertainment.
"There is a reason it is the industry standard."
Makes creating a light plot or other drawing for the entertainment industry simple. This is software I use and teach. I can take a student who knows hand drafting and get the up and running in just a few lessons. There is no other resources that as many lighting symbols as Vectorworks. They keep the library up to date and constantly adding new items. The program updates every year and each year they offer new features that are helpful. The new cable management tool is revolutionary. Another great feature is Spotlights gobo textures. With this program you can try out gobos in your pre visualizations.
Every year its updated and its tough keeping up with new features. Some new versions crash a lot make sure you save often and have at least two backups for each project. You can do some pre visualizations but the control is limited and hard to do with a complex light plot.
Get as many add ons as you can afford. Renderworks is a must to go with Spotlight. If you want to do rendering make sure you have a computer that can handle the extra computer power needed.
Its allows me to easily create light plots for theatre. The resources it provides are priceless. It has more symbols in one place than any other product. Ultimately it saves time which makes me more money.
"Despite some flaws, Vectorworks Spotlight is easily the best tool for the job."
I like Vectorworks' intuitive design tools, handling of lighting symbols and associated data, legend customization ability, and ability to organize elements into both classes and layers. The (general) ease of data exchange between vectorworks and lightwright is particularly helpful and time saving.
Vectorworks' handling of work planes is not nearly as smooth or intuitive as Revit, though it is improving. The label legend manager could be much easier to work with as well. The integration with Lightwright would ideally also be smoother (sometimes leading to fixtures disappearing, duplicating or moving unexpectedly). Sometimes the handling of hybrid 2D and 3D symbols can cause frustrations and unnecessary complications.
There are not really any programs that can compete with Vectorworks' light plot drafting ability and integration with lightwright. Though sometimes frustrating, it is the best and industry standard tool for the job.
Vectorworks saves a great deal of time in allowing for the creation of elegant and accurate plots that serve to organize and contain a great deal of important and relevant lighting data.
"Industry Standard for a Reason"
Vectorworks Spotlight is the industry standard for entertainment lighting drawings for good reason. The built-in tools make the software unrivaled in it's ease of use; the native tools in Vectorworks are add-ins for the big name competitors. Automated fixture numbering, synchronization with Lightwright, database tools, and integrated photometrics make the software a comfortable environment for drafting. It understands what you need to do and speaks the language of the entertainment professional. With each new version there are meaningful and significant improvements which accommodate real world users feedback and, as a result, ease of use and functionality improves annually.
Vectorworks, at times, doesn't feel like a precise drafting tool. A light plot usually doesn't require this but attempting to draw detailed elements can sometimes warrant a switch to AutoCAD for a quicker and easier precision drawing experience.
A great deal of time is saved by using Vectorworks. This is the number one business benefit.
"I couldn't do my job without Vectorworks Spotlight"
It is arguably the industry standard for theatrical designers. The listen to their customers.
I would love to have a more integrated paperwork solution.
Do yourself a favor and learn this software.
Vectorworks Spotlight allows me to do my job...I teach lighting design in the classroom and onstage.
"*The* industry standard lighting software"
The ability to create comprehensive lighting plots in 2D and 3D, with clear information for a master electrician and programmer, as well as being able to interchange information with Lightwright.
The load time is a little slow on Mac, and its 3D engine does not allow for intuitive boom arm placement. A future version with a "smart" boom arm creator would eliminate this problem.
LXFree and possibly also Capture Polar with Lightweight and Wysiwyg.
It allows me to communicate clearly to electricians, and keep track of inventory of equipment used and the the rental shop order for other items.
"Vectorworks as a Lighting Designer"
When using Vectorworks I find that the pre-built symbols are most helpful. It saves the time of having to build your own symbols and allows for easy data transfer out of the program. Along the lines of data transfer, I have found Vectorworks one of the most compatible piece of software. Most other programs are just now getting up to the importing abilities that Vectorworks has had for many years.
When I do have to create a symbol that is not in the file it isn't the easiest task. It is clunky and your data path can get messed up quickly. Usually it is easier just to copy a pre-built symbol and re-work it but I prefer a ground up approach. I also believe there should be some more pay brackets depending on usage, since it is such a helpful piece of software it would be nice if more people could use it, restricting file size and reducing cost would be nice for smaller theaters and one man outfits.
It is a crucial piece of software for the entertainment lighting industry. If you work in the entertainment lighting industry it is almost a requirement to learn this software. It allows for better communication and clarity of ideas.
My use with Vectorworks is to communicate with the rest of the design team what is necessary for my light hangs. This eliminates the need for more face to face interactions to explain drawings.
"A powerful and nearly comprehensive tool for theatrical design. "
Vectorworks offers a rich set of industry specific features and fulling functioning CAD suite. The ability to work with the files in a number of other CAD suites, also me to work the way I want and for collaborators to work as they are most comfortable. Additionally, the ability to work interoperable with other industry software, like lightwright, makes it an essential part of my work.
I wish vectorworks did more towards live visualization to better integrate with my workflow and client conversations.
Vectorworks is the one CAD platform which I've used that retains the drafting table and paper as the final product. There is always a reference to what the end document will be, and that helps with the organizational logic in my experience. However, this does lead to unique taxonomy, such as the difference between layers and classes. These can be the trickiest concepts for the new vectorworks user with previous experience in the AutoCAD or Adobe product lines.
I am a lighting, media and scenic designer. Vectorworks allows me to work in a robust 3D environment to pre-plan all of my scenic objects and lighting instruments. This givens me the ability to animate and rapidly prototype ideas with directors, choreographers and other collaborators.
Vector works can be used and is used by lots of people who have their own way of using it and it works for them, but I was taught by beta-tester and learned the program the way it was designed and have been teaching to others this way and they are all happy to learn.
Dont give up if you are having trouble finding symbols you need, you can always make your own and I have done just that many times.
I get to make creative, custom presentations that other software can't do. You don't just have to make draftings of theatrical projects, but can trace PDFs of pictures, scale documents without loosing resolution. There is nothing I can't do or make with this product.
"Scenic and Lighting Designer for Corporate AV"
I like how easy it is to train new people on Vectorworks. I have trained several people at my office, and find that most people can pickup the basics of VW pretty easy. I also think that VW is going the right direction with support. They are active on their forums and very willing to help users out.
File size is sometimes a problem for me. It is not unusual for me to have files 70mbs and bigger.
There are a lot of people in the industry that use VW. It is a fairly simple program to learn.
There are a lot of design problems that VW helps me solve. With the integration of Projection Tools I no longer have to use additional software to do Projection Calculations. It seems every year they come out with some tools that saves me from 5 minutes to 15 minutes of work.
The palletes are useful and easy to use.
"Product is good but latest update is a lemon"
I like the libraries available. Ease of importing dxf and dwg files.
The latest version crashes approximately every 10minutes. They release a new version every year and it's a pain.
Providing lighting plots. It's easy to send off a plot via email instead of thru the post.
Vectorworks Spotlight is the industry standard software for lighting designers. The compatibility with Lightwright (and now Lightwright's easy imports into Nomad) means that all my paperwork and work spaces stay consistently labeled.
Not particularly user friendly to start with. Building a base of symbols and legends takes time.
Working through online tutorials piece by piece.
Faster paperwork updates. More accurate drawings.
"Vectorworks Spotlight is a great, flexible, and accurate program that I use daily."
I like the ability to detail designs down to millimeters and then see the reality take shape just as drawn.
There is a distinct learning curve and I feel there are many areas I could work more efficiently.
Using VWX gives the ability to plan all aspects of a setup, from light plot, to seating layout and see these aspects reflected accurately on show site.

A new law is helping undocumented students in New Jersey attend college, but challenges remain
Thanks to a New Jersey law passed in May, undocumented immigrant students are now eligible to receive state financial aid to attend college. But questions and challenges remain, as many schools and families don't yet know about the program, and some students fear that applying may lead to scrutiny that could result in deportation.

Every city high school's graduation rate, charted over time
After panel on school choice, critique of city's system of schools
Chancellor Dennis Walcott is interviewed by WNYC's Brian Lehrer at a forum on public school options. Many of the parents and teachers attending a forum last night about school choice said it was their first time hearing Chancellor Dennis Walcott talk about the Bloomberg administration's school policies. Walcott defended the school choice model that has developed during Bloomberg's tenure at the event, which was organized by the New York Times and WNYC in conjunction with their SchoolBook reporting project. (Listen to WNYC's coverage of the event.) The event took place against the backdrop of a spate of school closures announced by the Department of Education earlier in the day. The city's closure strategy, meant to clear space for better school options, has in large part fueled the increasing number of choices that families face, especially when applying in middle and high school. Parents and teachers we spoke to said the apparent options could be dizzying, even for the most involved families. educators, some parents said they didn't think Walcott's answers got to the root of their concerns. "It's very confusing. The whole process reminds me of voting. People don't engage because there's too much information out there. They don't know how to process all of it," said Tania Cade, who has a child in third grade at P.S. 278 and another in seventh-grade at a gifted-and-talented program in Washington Heights. "I don't think that [Walcott] addressed that issue at all. It's all up to the parents, and God bless those parents who don't have the time or don't speak the language."

In the Bronx, an embattled school tries to do more with less
This school year, GothamSchools and WNYC reporters will follow three New York City high schools as they try to improve. The following is an introduction to one of those schools: Christopher Columbus High School. Christopher Columbus High School sits on a quiet street in the Bronx that's actually a no man's land in the middle of a policy war. The city's Department of Education has been threatening to close Columbus since 2003. Mayor Bloomberg has called it, and other schools like it, "failures" and warned parents against enrolling their children there, saying the students would "probably never recover from it." About 300 ninth-graders enrolled in the school regardless, but the school's future is still precarious. Caught in a fight between the city and the teachers union, it is being starved while other struggling schools are getting help. Among the changes at Columbus this year are a freshman class that has shrunk by more than a hundred students, a budget that is down by more than $1 million, and widespread uncertainty over whether the city will succeed in closing the school on its second try. But unlike some of the other 18 schools saved from closure by a union lawsuit, Columbus is still fighting. Its principal of eight years, Lisa Fuentes, applied to convert Columbus into a charter school focused on serving high-needs students. Its teachers and students are already planning rallies in the school's defense.
Stimulus dollars don't force judging teachers based on tests
In his interview with Chancellor Joel Klein this morning, Brian Lehrer of WNYC repeatedly described the $115 billion federal stimulus package for education as being available to states only if they met a steep demand: evaluating teachers based on their students' test scores. Klein agreed, calling the evaluations "a general requirement for states to get the stimulus money." Pressed for specifics on how that would affect the city schools, the chancellor hedged, saying he's waiting for more details from the Obama administration. In fact, a spokesman from the U.S. Department of Education told me that states will receive the stimulus funds regardless of their willingness to evaluate teachers using student test scores. "We're encouraging states to do merit pay," he said. "But to get all of the stimulus money you don't have to do merit pay." The notion that there are strings in the main pot of the stimulus money is not entirely off base. The federal DOE is asking states to pledge to do a list of four things with the money before they get it (an occurrence that's scheduled to happen next month, a spokesman told me). Two points on that list also seem to add up to merit pay, or at least provide the ingredients to make it possible — one asking states to improve "teacher effectiveness" and another asking them to create data systems to track students' progress. And President Obama did, just this week, signal his interest in seeing federally funded merit-pay programs expand to 150 districts from a measly 34. Finally, there's another $5 billion pot of money in the stimulus, the "race to the top" fund, that states will have to apply for the use of — and which is dedicated to "innovative" programs that could include performance-based pay. Here are the four criteria states will have to promise their stimulus funds will meet, cribbed from these federal DOE stimulus guidelines:

Q: storeaccountd(453) deny file-write-create when beginning In-App Purchase on Mac Since upgrading to El Capitan, my Mac app which includes an In-App Purchase is failing to process the In-App Purchase. This is the error that I see in the console:
storeaccountd(453) deny file-write-create /Users/kenny/Library/Caches/com.inadaydevelopment.mac10biiFinancialCalculator

When the user clicks to purchase, they get the App Store login pop-up, and they get the In-App Purchase confirm pop-up with a Buy button. When they click Buy, that Buy confirmation pops up a 2nd time. Then I get the above error message in the console about 15 times. Then I get a final popup that says "An unknown error has occured" with Retry and Cancel buttons.
This app has been working, but once the user upgrades to El Capitan, it horks. What is going wrong?
Here is the full error report from the console:

Event - AdCom to put Xifaxan back on track in IBS
Jonathan Gardner
After the crushing disappointment of an FDA complete response letter earlier this year, Xifaxan's route to market in its most lucrative setting should soon be back on track. An advisory committee will gather next week to consider how to properly design a trial for Salix Pharmaceuticals' drug for the treatment for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) with diarrhoea, which was rejected by the regulator due to a lack of long-term and re-treatment data (Bad news on Xifaxan gives Salix investors indigestion, February 24, 2011).
With a healthy cash pile, a stable of marketed products boosted by the addition of two new ones from the recent $300m purchase of Oceana Therapeutics, Salix is reasonably positioned to endure the two years it expects it will take to complete a new trial and finally gain regulatory approval. However, with half of Xifaxan's forecast blockbuster sales still expected to come from use in IBS, Salix needs good news on the regulatory front and will be keen to see the expert panel pass without any more nasty surprises.
Product Xifaxan
Company Salix Pharmaceuticals
Market cap $2.17bn
Product NPV $2.02bn
% of market cap 93%
Event type FDA advisory committee
Indication IBS with diarrhoea
Unmet need
The fact that the FDA convened a hearing of the Gastrointestinal Drugs Advisory Committee to discuss trial design can probably be taken as a positive sign that the agency is keen to bring new therapeutic products to market given the lack of alternatives in this setting.
Some 10-20% of the population in developed countries is estimated to suffer from IBS in general, and many of the top-selling treatments are old, with Takeda and Sucampo's Amitiza the most recent entry in the space, and then only for the IBS with constipation (IBS-C) indication (Sure-footed Sucampo delivers again, May 1, 2008).
Ironwood Pharmaceuticals and Forest Laboratories recently announced their IBS-C drug linaclotide was accepted for FDA review, with an estimated PDUFA date in June 2012. However, that leaves the non-constipation IBS population underserved, and thus there is likely interest in how best to bring Xifaxan, already approved in hepatic encephalopathy, to market.
Remedial work
Salix has signalled in the months following the FDA rejection that it has been in talks with the agency over how best to demonstrate the durability of response with repeated treatment. The pivotal Target 1 and 2 studies showed that IBS patients had significantly greater relief from symptoms in a 12-week study period, that included two weeks of treatment and ten weeks of follow-up.
But since the proportion of patients who reported adequate relief declined during the 10-week follow-up, the agency was concerned that patients will be returning for repeat treatments, and in order for approval Salix would need to demonstrate that it was still safe and effective if used repeatedly.
In its third-quarter earnings statement on Tuesday, Carolyn Logan, Salix chief executive, said retrospective data analysis indicates that Xifaxan is effective if used repeatedly, and that a study design agreed by both agency staff and the company will be presented to the adcom next week. Staff comments on study design could be available as early as today and likely no later than early Monday.
Assuming a positive adcom review, patient recruitment could begin by the end of 2011, and approval would be another 24 months off.
Ready for the long haul
Shares in the company have quietly crept up in recent weeks, and can be expected to lift more following a positive adcom. After hitting an 18-month low of $26.18 in late September, shares closed at $36.72 yesterday following news that Salix had acquired privately-held Oceana Therapeutics.
That transaction brings on board two gastrointestinal products that have the potential to fit well in the Salix armoury: Solesta, a recently approved faecal incontinence injection, and Deflux, a treatment for vesicoureteral reflux, a malformation of the urinary bladder that can result in severe infections of the kidneys and irreversible kidney damage. UBS analysts estimate that sales of both products will reach $34m next year and $40m in 2013.
The company held $498m in cash as of September 30, so the $300m purchase price for Oceana will have put a significant dent in its cash pile, but will still leave it with a fair amount for further partnership or M&A activity, if necessary. Salix recorded nine-month sales of $385m, and raised its guidance for total sales to $535m in 2011, 59% growth over 2010.
Thus the company appears to be able to handle the long road toward Xifaxan approval in IBS. But given its importance to long-term sales growth and profitability, Salix really needs to the experts to agree with its new plans for the product.

Seven Rules to Get Satellite Specs Correct The 1st Time
Paul Morris, Vice President, RF and Comms BU, EnSilica
The incorrect component can prove quite costly...
In any industry — especially in the military/agency/ government (MAG) market segments — an incorrect component can, and does, prove costly. In space, this cost can be several orders of magnitude higher. Chip development for satellites and their specifications will assist developers in being correct at the first time around.
The consequences of being late to market can be devastating to a an organization or company, especially when the costs for many products are measured in millions of dollars, whether tax payer or commercial entity supported.
A delayed launch due to late breaking changes could significantly delay services revenue and also prove disastrous to warfighters. Once a satellite is on-orbit, it's extremely difficult and, sometimes, impossible to service.
Getting it wrong can be even more catastrophic.
The maiden flight of Ariane 5 lasted one minute before the rocket — along with its $500 million payload — was destroyed. The cause of this was the specification of the software used, which suffered from a poor definition of detailed requirements and functionality. That ultimately led to software performing 64-bit operations with 16-bit precision and failing to correctly detect overflow conditions.
It's not just the software — much of the electronics used in satellites are ASICs (custom-designed chips), which deliver the bespoke functionality needed while meeting, for example, the power limitations required when operating only on solar and battery power.
As an example, the company recently worked with ESA as a partner to develop a satellite communications system for a spacecraft and this required a Ka-band (26.5 – 40 GHz) transceiver in order to communicate with vehicles anywhere on the planet.
Again, the design for this began with the specification.
To quote five IC design experts* … "Tell me what you want. What you really, really want."
Purpose oF the Specification
The specification defines the behaviour and operation of the product. Functionality and behaviour which is required to be present in the product must be clearly defined. Similarly, functionality that is explicitly not required should also be clearly stated.
Typically, the specification is generated by the engineering team in consultation with the end customer and based on a requirements document provided by the customer.
One key mistake that is frequently seen is the assumption that the specification can function as a datasheet and/or user manual — let's stress that the specification is not this document.
Instead, the specification is there to confirm customer requirements. Every requirement must be addressed directly or indirectly by the functionality defined within the specification.
There is a one to one (or one to many) mapping between each customer requirement and functionality defined by the specification.
Therefore, it is essential to review and approve the specification only when it adequately responds to each requirement. The compliance report that is prepared by the development team should be closely reviewed and then approved by the customer.
Who Is the Specification For?
There are two audiences.
1) The system developer (the ASIC vendor's customer). If the customer does not understand or agree with the definition of the product, the chances that a development team is able to deliver what's needed tends to zero.
2) The development team. While this sounds obvious, it is all too common for individual members of a development team to only read the sections of the specification focused on their tasks. For the development team, the specification document allows the team to be structured correctly to bring together the right skillsets.
While the specification cannot magically resolve poor communication between the customer and the supplier, or between people within the suppliers product development team, it will act as the communication channel that will help the information to flow to the correct parties.
The Seven Rules to writing Requirements?
1) Use precise language
The choice of words used to express each requirement is crucial. As an example: shall expresses a requirement; will makes a statement of fact; should expresses an aspiration.
2) Be concise
Each requirement should be as concise as possible, with requirements reduced into individual items, giving maximum clarity when reporting compliance during the development. For example, it is preferable to say, "The product must do X" and "The product should do Y" rather than "The product must do X and should do Y."
3) Be complete
The requirements must be complete. If an aspect of the necessary product functionality is not described in the requirements, it will not be described in the specification and, as a result ,will not be in the product.
4) Include rationales
but only where essential Where appropriate, each requirement may be accompanied by a rationale. The rationale is not an extension of the requirement. Compliance is determined against the requirement, not the rationale. Do not fall into the trap of using the rationale in an attempt to broaden the scope.
5) Focus on the what, not the how
The requirements must describe the intended functionality but equally must not describe the preferred implementation. The requirements describe what the product must do rather than how it must provide that functionality.
6) Ignore non-essential functionality
Is each requirement necessary for the product? If something is not essential for the intended product functionality then it is not a requirement.
7) Make requirements specific and measurable
For reporting compliance there must be a way to uniquely identify each requirement. This enables compliance reports to make clear statements such as "Specification S.17 addresses requirement R.49". Writing clear, unambiguous requirements means the avoidance of any terminology or expression that is not verifiable. As a basic example, saying "The product must be low power" is subjective — instead, it should be defined as "The product must consume less than X."
Getting a specification wrong can be catastrophic for MAG and/or commercial projects. By following these seven tips, developers should be well placed to 'get it right first time.'

I drive most days to university in Las Cruces, which is about 80 miles one-way. During the trip, I'm usually presented with an amazing variety of unusual goods being transported on America's highway system. I've seen quite literally everything from parts and pieces of wind generators to what seems to be the fuselage section of F-35s. Sometimes, however, the most astounding thing I see is the treatment other drivers have toward truckers.
In this video, you get to see what happens when a charcoal grill is set on fire using liquid oxygen. Not only does it burn (and burn very well), but in the second experiment, the grill melts and some of the iron burns away.
Yes, folks, it's important to be careful on the road. It's doubly important to respect long-haul truck drivers whose cargo could incinerate you.
