Here you can see that the data to control the LEDs happens slightly differently in order. The CMD byte 70, 0 and checksum 185 is always the same Then there is the header for the led values, the data and at the end a checksum.

Bodes nebula is a pair of spiral galaxies located within the constellation Ursa Major some 12 million light years from Earth.
Johann Bode discovered the pair in 1774 and described them as a ‘Nebulous patch’.
M81 is the larger of the two and seen face on where as M82 is viewed from a side on position.
In January 2014 a supernova was seen within M82 which confirms other observations that this galaxy is very active in both in star formation and star deaths (Supernova). This is largely due to the gravitational influences from its bigger neighbour, M81. The pair are separated by as little as 150,000 light years which in cosmic terms is very close.
Within the outer part of the image are a number of other galaxies NGC 2976, NGC 3077 and NGC 2959.

Authorization Method & Scope:
Playing around in the garden, trying our new scope with a Leica de lux 5 compact zoom
It takes some getting used to but I think it will produce some closer Osprey shots.
here's to a good day tomorrow!
This is with the eyepiece on only a 20 zoom and the camera on its full zoom fixed to a swing round bracket, a circle is produced on the L C D first and then camera zoomed until the vignetting disappears . this is from less than thirty feet away
once postiioned carefully it seems to work far better than the SLR which is only manual focus on the scope, fixed , so focusing is hard through the viewfinder,
This method is ideal as focusing is with the scope then the camera swung back in place
a little contrast added and sharpening
The United Nations Country Team (UNCT) for Jamaica hosted a High Level Leadership Breakfast meeting to support the launch of the NGO-Eve for Life “Nuh Guh Deh” advocacy campaign to end sexual violence against girls. The event brought together Senators, Members of Parliament, permanent secretaries, and private sector executives. UN Women National Programme Coordinator for Jamaica, Taitu Heron, made a presentation focused on the dynamics of violence against women as a threat to citizen security and national development. She also provided an overview of the scope of violence against women in Jamaica with an emphasis on sexual violence against women and girls. She shared on UN Women's work on gender-based violence in Jamaica and the UNCT partnership in Jamaica of UN Women, UNICEF, UNFPA and UNAIDS to end that violence.

AR 15 scopes come in many variants. However, not all scopes are suitable to every AR 15 rifle. To determine whether a scope is the right fit to a particular rifle, an evaluation of the user’s needs, as well as the type of rifle and its intended use is important. All AR 15 scopes currently in the market have their own strengths and weaknesses. Hence, it is important that a balance of these two intertwined factors be reached in making a decision regarding which scope to use for a specific AR 15 rifle. The AR 15 is arguably the most popular rifle today. This is why there is no shortage of accessories and equipment being produced to complement what is already a top-notch line of rifles.With all the choices available today, rifle owners are faced with a predicament not for lack of suitable best AR 15 scopes, but due to the sheer difficulty of choosing from a long list of seemingly perfect complement for their guns. The question now is how to segregate all the choices and come up with the best scope for a particular AR 15 rifle.

Collection: Tennessee v. John Thomas Scopes Trial Photographs - During 1925, Watson Davis (1896-1967), Science Service managing editor, took numerous photographs while covering the State of Tennessee v. John Thomas Scopes trial as a reporter. In what was dubbed "The Trial of the Century," Scopes was tried and convicted for violating a state law prohibiting the teaching of the theory of evolution. William Jennings Bryan served on the prosecution team, and Clarence Darrow defended Scopes. Almost eighty years later, the nitrate negatives, including portraits of trial participants, and images from the trial itself and significant places in Dayton, were discovered in archival material donated to the Smithsonian by Science Service in 1971. Marcel C. LaFollette, an independent scholar, historian and Smithsonian volunteer uncovered these rare, previously unpublished photographs of the 1925 Tennessee vs. John Scopes "Monkey Trial" in the Smithsonian Institution Archives (SIA). In 2005, SIA restored fifty-two of the negatives with funds granted by the Smithsonian Women's Committee. Included here are thirty-nine of the images. All images belong to the Record Unit 7091: Science Service, Records, 1902-1965 collection of SIA. All photographs were taken by Watson Davis, Managing Editor of Science Service, while he was in Dayton, Tennessee, June 4-5, 1925, and July 10-22, 1925. LaFollette identified and dated each of these images, and has published a new book highlighting these and other images from the trial entitled, Reframing Scopes: Journalists, Scientists, and Lost Photographs from the Trial of the Century, University Press of Kansas, 2008.

Authorization Method & Scope:
Well, the kit is complete. I used a Leatherwood scope mount (thanks Jacksmith) with a 8-24x zoom scope. The scope rings are see-though so that I can use the default sights for close-up as well. Now I just need time to sight it in.
It barely fits in this case which is made to hold two guns. :)

Worked from 10am to 8pm today so no real scope for a picture. It's been a long couple of days so time to enjoy one of these.

My telescope setup. It's a Meade LX90 10" GPS 'scope with the Canon T2i piggybacked. It was so cold that night that ice started to hinder my photography. Also, the location was so dark that I didn't even know that the building in the background existed until I took this three-minute exposure.
The Transat has a new title sponsor in the French pastry company, bakerly.
The Transat, the oldest professional solo sailing race, which sets sail from Plymouth to New York on May 2nd, has a new title sponsor in bakerly, a new brand of French inspired bakery goods.
The race now officially becomes “The Transat bakerly” – in a partnership that perfectly fits the French company’s spirit of adventure.
Founded in 2015, bakerly, is a new consumer brand but it shares with The Transat – which enjoys a 56-year history steeped in adventure and sailing folklore – a common path: both The Transat and bakerly are crossing the Atlantic.
‘bakerly’ is a US subsidiary of the French industrial food group Norac. With bakerly, American consumers can now experience crêpes, brioches, and croissants made without additives or preservatives.
For the Norac group, the sponsorship of the race is something of a homecoming. Crêpes Whaou! is one of the most iconic brands owned by the group and sailing fans will remember the many victories of French skipper Franck-Yves Escoffier and his trimaran. Escoffier even took part in the 2004 edition of this solo transatlantic epic.
With a warm-up from St Malo to the race start at Plymouth and then finishing New York 3,000 miles later, The Transat bakerly follows the strategic path of the bakerly brand – created in France, established in Britain and today setting foot in America.
During each of The Transat bakerly’s stopovers – at St-Malo, Plymouth and New York – the public will have the chance to discover, or rediscover, the different products the Norac group has to offer.
The Transat bakerly is a key race in the world of offshore racing and sport in general, since 1960, the race has contributed a great deal to sailing and its history has a universal appeal. We are very proud to associate our brand with an event of this magnitude.
“For us this sponsorship marks a return to racing and a sport that has much potential, as we discovered with Crêpes Whaou! Now with The Transat bakerly, we marry passion and reason because this is how the best stories start.”
Hervé Favre, The Transat bakerly Events Director said: “Since the first edition, The Transat has been associated with fine partners. Today we are proud to join together with bakerly and look towards a promising future with Norac, a French food group out to conquer the US market.
“This partnership is great news, and it will help give greater scope to the event,” Favre added.

This partnership is great news, and it will help give greater scope to the event.
The 2016 edition of The Transat bakerly will see 25 solo skippers in four classes – Ultimes, IMOCA 60s, Multi50s and Class40s – take on one of the great challenges in professional sailing. They face a 3,000-mile course complete with storm force headwinds, rough seas and freezing fog.
When Sir Francis Chichester won the first edition of the race in 1960, it took him 40 days to reach New York. This year the fastest boats could be there in as little as seven days.
The Norac Group:
- 4200 employees
- CEO Bruno Caron
- HQ in Rennes, France
- Owner of 12 brands, including 5 outside of France
- Companies in France: Ateliê do Sabor, Cie des Pains, Daunat, Dessaint Food Services, La Boulangère and Sud’n’Sol
- Companies outside France: Germany – Ibis; Brazil – Norac do Brazil; Spain – Espanorac; UK – Norac Foods UK; USA – Norac USA
- 21 production sites; two outside of France
- Brands: Armor Délices, Ateliê do Sabor, bakerly, Crêpes Whaou!, Daunat, Dessaint Food Services, Ensoleil’ade, Ibis, La Boulangère, Le Ster Le Pâtisser, Sud’n’Sol.
The Transat bakerly:
- The oldest professional solo sailing race, first staged in 1960 and held every four years
- Race winners have included many of the world’s greatest solo sailors, among them Sir Francis Chichester, Eric Tabarly, Ellen MacArthur and Loick Peyron
- The 2016 edition of The Transat bakerly features 25 entries from four nations
- Solo skippers will race in four classes of yachts
- The racetrack is 3,000 nautical miles of the North Atlantic Ocean
- The race starts from Plymouth in the UK and finishes in New York (for the first time since the inaugural race in 1960)
- Involves some of the toughest racing in solo sailing with storms, big seas and freezing fog to contend with
- Features for the first time a non-timed warm-up from St-Malo in Brittany to Plymouth
- At the finish the yachts will berth in the brand new Oneº15 Brooklyn Marina overlooking Manhatten
NORFOLK, Va. --- Quinton Chievous scored a game- and career-high 23 points and grabbed 16 rebounds to lead four players in double figures as Hampton University defeated Norfolk State (20-13), 75-64 in the semifinal round of the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) tournament at the Norfolk Scope.
