Home Products Kits Our Famous Original Dyna St-70 Rebuild Plans E-mail | Print | From Audio Basics, July, 1982 Hello again, I am glad that the feedback I am getting from many of you indicates that you are happy with the information and ideas I have been describing. Some of you have complained that you want more "meat" - technical information on audio equipment. So, this month we will get a bit more technical and go through the operation of a vacuum tube amplifier, what it does, what it cannot do, and what you can do about it. The data will pertain to vacuum tube amplifiers in general, and the Dyna St-70 specifically, as we get so many requests for information on how to modify them. VACUUM TUBE AMPLIFIERS Any audio amplifier can essentially be modeled as a two stage device; a voltage amplifier (which amplifies the amplitude of the signal) followed by a current amplifier (which supplies the drive current to drive the now large amplitude signal into a low impedance load - the speaker system). Although many tube circuits will also have voltage gain in the current amplifier section, that is not important to the discussion that follows. The closed loop gain of the amplifier is determined by a voltage divider which sends a portion of the output signal back to the input of the voltage amplifier out of phase. The amplifier then does not amplify the input signal, it amplifies a signal being the difference between input and feedback signal. If the voltage amplifier and current amplifier were perfectly linear, the difference between the input and feedback signal would be only a small version of the input signal and the results would be "perfect." In theory, any difference between input and output is supposed to be eliminated by feedback. The feedback signal, which is a duplicate of the output signal, when subtracted from the input signal, should create a "difference signal" which is "pre-distorted" by the amount of distortion in the circuits, but out of phase with the circuit's distortion. The "pre-distortion" in the "difference" signal, when added out of phase to the actual distortion in the circuits, cancels exactly, giving a "perfect" output signal. That is the way it is supposed to work. By the way, there ain't no such thing as a no feedback amplifier! There are many different feedback schemes. One can choose to use lots of local feedback in each stage and little overall loop feedback, but each device in itself (whether it is transistor or tube) has internal feedback. If one attempts to make an amplifier with "no feedback" except for that inherent in the devices themselves then the design becomes absolutely dependent of the characteristics of each independent device. No two tubes or transistors, even of the same type, are identical. Even if you painstakingly select and bias each individual device one at a time, its characteristics will change with variations in temperature, current, voltage, and age. It will be impossible to make any two channels the same and to keep them the same. The main characteristics of a so called "no feedback" amplifier are: very high cost (each unit is essentially a one off), very hot running as the devices have to be biased on very hard, unstable operation as the unit changes characteristics with age and temperature, no two samples will sound the same as they are device dependent, and lots of "blow-ups." Obviously, repairs will be expensive as a repair is essentially a re-engineering of that unit with new devices and re-biasing of each device. I can live without it. The "wonderful" sound of a "no feedback" amplifier is the wonderful sound of lots of instabilities and underdamped oscillations. You may like it, I don't, it isn't music. Thus, those that choose to build stable, repeatable, and rationally priced amplifiers will use some feedback. The catch is in knowing what the feedback can and cannot do in the real world, and to use the feedback properly, so that the unit does not only measure well, but actually performs well under transient conditions in the real world. Now, back to that vacuum tube amplifier. Remember we mentioned that if the voltage amplifier and the current amplifier were perfect, everything would be just fine. Sorry folks, the internal circuits are not perfect and that is where the troubles start. Inasmuch as the feedback is supposed to compensate for any non-linearities between input and output, it is nice to know what non-linearities exist. First of all each individual active device is nonlinear. Its transfer characteristics are exponential, not linear, be it tube, FET, or transistor. Refer to the sketches below. If the device was perfect, its transfer function would be a straight line, and the slope would remain the same at all frequencies. The actual characteristics are shown in the second and third sketches. Note that the characteristics are actually exponential. The device is only very linear near the center-line of its operation, and the harder it is "worked", the less linear it becomes, finally becoming 100% nonlinear when its absolute limitations are reached. In addition, the slope of the transfer function becomes less at higher frequencies as the gain of the device reduces. Thus if one attempts to get the same output from any given device at higher frequency, one will drive it into gross non-linearity sooner, as its headroom is less. In a similar fashion, at very low frequencies (approaching DC) the device becomes more nonlinear and its gain drops. In addition, because the slope changes with frequency, a kind of phase distortion is introduced which is not measured in standard IHF distortion tests, which measure only single frequency performance. Obviously, to optimize internal linearity, it is very desirable to operate each device within as narrow a bandwidth and as limited an amplitude range as possible while still covering the audio frequency range of interest. In a vacuum tube amplifier another major non-linearity is the output transformer. The output transformer's primary coil is just that-a very large coil (inductor) in series with the output tubes. Obviously the coil becomes very resistive as the frequency goes up, and in an audio amplifier this happens well within the audio range, rolling off the high frequency output. At very low frequencies the core of the transformer saturates giving very nonlinear bass performance. If one wants good high frequency performance then one must have very small output transformers so that the coil inductance is low. If one wants good low frequency performance one must have very large transformers so the core does not saturate. These requirements are mutually self exclusive. These requirements become more difficult to meet as the power rating goes up. If one attempts to "get around" this by designing a tube amplifier without output transformers, then one is faced with the problem that output tubes have very high output impedance and will not drive normal loudspeaker loads (8 s nominal) without severe non-linearities. Since the output transformer is a very narrow band and nonlinear device, it is obviously necessary to not feed into the transformer a signal that it cannot handle-the bandwidth of the amplifier must be limited to within the bandwidth of the output transformer. You cannot stuff 10 pounds in a 1 pound sack. The power supply is another source of distortion. The power supply can be considered to be in series with and part of the output circuit. All current that flows through the output circuit and speaker load first must flow through the power supply. The frequency limits of a power supply are real. It can be modeled as an inductor in series with a capacitor. Obviously at DC the capacitor's impedance is infinitely high, and at high frequencies the inductance is infinitely high. Thus, at very low and very high frequencies, the power supply is not capable at all. Unless great care is used in the power supply design, it may have multiple resonances, and actually be high impedance at many frequencies within the audio range. Consider also that since the power supply is part of the output circuit, if somebody offers a "wonderful" vacuum tube amplifier with a "wonderful" solid state power supply, you no longer have a vacuum tube amplifier, but a solid state amplifier, so how can it be a "wonderful" tube amplifier? Of course the power supply is also attached to the voltage amplifier section. Consider that all current draw by the output section causes a signal to show up on the power supply feeds. Any given device or circuit will work best when its supply is absolutely stable. Circuits are designed to reject power supply variations, but the supply rejection isn't absolute. Thus the more signal that shows up on the power supply feed to the voltage amplifier, the more distortion and instabilities there will be, as this is a signal injected into the circuit at the wrong place. Since we already know that the power supply is less effective at very high and very low frequencies, obviously the power supply related distortions will be greater at very high and very low frequencies. Again, a very good reason to bandwidth limit the amplifier to within the capability of its power supply. Understand of course that we are considering basic ground rules in general. There are many different kinds of voltage amplifier and current amplifier configurations that work fairly well, some simple, some complex. The important thing to know is that unless the circuits are executed to obey the guidelines established above the distortion will be very high under real world conditions, no matter what the linearity of each section is and no matter how high a quality of parts are used. Another common problem with vacuum tube amplifiers is the value chosen for the interstage coupling capacitors. In the case of the Dynaco St-70 for example (see attached schematic) coupling capacitors C10 and C11 are 0.1 uF. This introduces another large low frequency roll-off within the feedback loop. Since the amplifier actually amplifies the difference between input and feedback, and since the feedback is the difference between input and feedback, and since the feedback is taken off the output of the amplifier, at low frequencies the difference signal becomes very large partially due to the roll-off caused by the 0.1 uF coupling capacitors. Now remember that we have shown that any circuit becomes less linear with increasing amplitude and at the frequency extremes. The roll-off caused by the small value interstage coupler makes the front end work very hard to generate a large low frequency correction signal. This causes the front end to run in a very nonlinear mode at low frequencies. You hear it as "muddy bass." The "cure" is quite simple, make the interstage capacitor large enough in value so that the loop roll-off is minimized, thus reducing the correction required, and letting the front end run in a more linear mode. The low frequency correction signal is easy to see on an oscilloscope. Using a low frequency square wave as a source (20 Hz is fine) look at the signal on the output side of the interstage coupler. Note that it looks much like the input signal. Now look at the signal on the input side of the coupler. You will find the circuit is generating a signal with a large bass boost! (This is true in most tube preamps too!) What is happening is that the "flat" input signal is rolled off by the interstage coupling capacitor. Then the rolled off signal is fed back to the input and a correction signal is generated with a large bass boost to make up for the roll-off. The boosted signal is then rolled off again by the coupling capacitor and its output looks just fine. But the "monkey motion" has ruined the voltage amplifier's linearity at low frequencies. Now let's look at what is wrong with the original Dyna St-70 in detail. Refer to the audio channel schematic again, keeping in mind that the "dashed" section is our addition, the original has the input connected to V2 directly with a piece of wire. What we have is a typical vacuum tube amplifier with unlimited bandwidth input acceptance (DC coupled) but with limited bandwidth output transformers and small interstage coupling capacitors. The power supply is also limited bandwidth, being pretty feeble at both low and high frequencies. A very low frequency signal is rolled off by the interstage coupling capacitors, turned into a "lump" as the output transformer core saturates, and is further distorted as the power supply runs out of steam. The feedback signal, being taken off after all the disasters occur is very different from the input signal. This generates an enormous "difference" signal which drives the front end into 100% distortion trying to make an impossible correction. Inasmuch as the circuits are underdamped too, the "blob" makes the amp ring for a few cycles attempting to digest the mess. Some people call these distortions and ringing, which extends up into the mid-range, "concert hall sound." Sorry, it isn't concert hall sound, it is distortion. If you like it you have bad taste. At high frequencies the compensation in the voltage amplifier rolls off the signal, the active devices roll it off further, and the output transformers attenuate the highs further yet. This generates another huge correction signal at high frequencies, again more than the headroom of the front end, clipping the correction signal once again. Of course the high impedance of the supply has further compounded the problems. The amp is driven into hard slew limiting and all signal entering the amp while any internal device is slewing is erased. Gobs of high frequency distortion are added and part of the music is forever lost. It is very strange to think that some people use the St-70 to drive tweeters when it doesn't "tweet" at all-it does kind of "squeak." Obviously the power supply of the St-70 must be much improved. NO! Not necessarily! Think a minute. Consider that the power bandwidth of the power supply must be greater than the bandwidth of the audio circuit. There are two ways to get this ratio in proper order. The expensive (and stupid) way is to build a huge power supply-and if the amp has DC coupled inputs you can never make it big enough. The easy and smart way is to limit the bandwidth of the circuit to within the capabilities of the existing power supply, especially if it is absolutely necessary to bandwidth limit the inputs anyway to make the input bandwidth within the capabilities of the output transformers. As mentioned earlier, the interstage coupling capacitors, C10 and C11 are too small. Note that as long as the input is DC coupled, it is not possible to make C10 and C11 big enough, as even a very large capacitor will have an inside the loop roll off when compared to DC input acceptance. To install the input bandwidth limited filter on the St-70 you will need 8 parts: (2) 10,000 resistors, (2) 470,000 resistors (5% carbon film 1/4 watt parts from Radio Shack are just fine, and it would be better if you could use a meter and "pair" them, so they are matched within 1%.) You will also need (2) 1000 pF capacitors (mica, polystyrene, or mylar are O.K., of about 100 volt rating - the capacitors used should be physically small) and (2) 0.02 uF capacitors (film) 100 volt rating, again physically as small as possible. Again, Radio Shack will have adequate parts and if you can match them on a precision capacitance meter it will be helpful. The capacitor values suggested are not absolute. Anything from about 0.02 to 0.033 uF is O.K. for the larger cap, and 800 to 1200 pF for the smaller capacitor. The new 6 dB per octave low pass and high pass filter is installed on the input jacks on the bottom inside of the chassis. We suggest that the mono-stereo switch wiring be eliminated as the performance is poorer when bridged mono because of the difference between the two channels (no two output tubes or output transformers are identical). If you decide to eliminate the mono-stereo switch, then do the following: 1. Remove all the wires from the input jack and mono-stereo switch except for the two wires going directly from the input jack ground lugs to the PC card (these are actually extensions of the leads of two 10 resistors mounted on the card). These remain. Also remove the two original 470,000 resistors from the jack and switch. 2. Remove the two wires running from the hot lugs of the input jack to eyelets 7 and 17 on the PC card. 3. Connect a 10,000 resistor in series with a 0.02 uF capacitor and connect the capacitor end of the series set to the left channel hot input jack and the resistor end to eyelet 7 on the PC card. 4. Connect another 10,000 resistor in series with a 0.02 uF capacitor and connect the capacitor end to the right channel hot input jack and the resistor end to eyelet 17 on the PC card. 5. Connect a 1000 pF capacitor in parallel with a 470,000 resistor and install the resistor between the left channel ground lug and eyelet 7 on the PC card. 6. Connect another 1000 pF capacitor in parallel with a 470,000 resistor and connect the resistor from the right channel ground lug on the input jack to eyelet 17 on the PC card. If you must keep the mono-stereo switch option, do the following instead of the last set of instructions: 1. Remove the two wires running from the left and right channel hot lugs on the input jacks to eyelets 7 and 17 on the PC card. 2. Connect a 10,000 resistor in series with a 0.02 uF capacitor and connect the capacitor end to the left channel hot input lug and the resistor end to eyelet 7 on the PC card. 3. Connect another 10,000 resistor in series with a 0.02 uF capacitor and connect the capacitor end to the right channel hot input lug and the resistor end to eyelet 17 on the PC card. 4. Install a 1000 pF capacitor in parallel with each of the two existing 470,000 resistors on the input jack and mono-stereo switch. For mono operation, the amp is switched to mono, only one input jack is used (either left or right, but not both). Connect a jumper wire from the left output ground to the right output ground terminal. Connect a jumper wire from the left 16 tap to the right 16 tap (for 8 speakers). Take the output from the same channel that you have the input jack connected to, using the 16 and ground terminals (for 8 speakers). To use 4 speakers connect the jumper from the left 8 output tap to the right 8 output jack and connect the load from ground to 8 on the channel used. This arrangement parallels the two channels for somewhat higher power, but lower definition performance. Now that the input bandwidth is set to a rational, finite limit, it is possible to make the interstage coupling capacitors "big enough." You will need to acquire four 1 uF at 400 volt film capacitors (mylar, polypropylene, or whatever). Again Radio Shack will have adequate parts. Locate and remove the four large identical black tubular 0.1 uF at 400 volt capacitors from the PC card. They are positioned parallel with the front of the chassis, one at each corner of the PC card. Replace each with a 1.0 uF at 400 volt capacitor. The exact value of the replacements is not critical. They can be anything between 0.8 uF to 2.0 uF at 400 volts or higher. It is important that all four new capacitors be exactly the same. Further detail improvements can be made to the St-70. The bias supply capacitors in old St-70 amps should be replaced. We suggest that the two original 50 uF capacitors (C3 and C4, located on the 7 lug terminal strip under the chassis) be replaced with new 100 uF at 80 volt electrolytic capacitors (again, available at Radio Shack). Note that the positive end of each cap is connected to ground. Do not use a larger capacitor in this application or the supply will come up too slowly, over-biasing the output tubes at turn on. Although the original power supply is now adequate, further reductions in hum and noise can be made by installing an additional 100 uF at 500 volt electrolytic capacitor (a 450 volt rated cap with a 500+ volt surge rating is adequate unless you have high line voltage) from pin 8 of the power supply tube (V1-5AR4) to chassis ground at the ground lug near the quad filter. The positive end of the cap goes to the tube socket, the negative end to ground. Inasmuch as the perceived "image" and "depth" of an audio system is dependent upon both channels having exactly the same gain and phase response, and because the resistors in the St-70 (and other tube amps) may have drifted out of specification over the years, it is helpful to replace all of the resistors with new tight tolerance parts. The gain determining resistors especially should be matched to each other within 1%. The RN60D and RL42S metal film resistors shown on the attached St-70 parts list are a good choice. However using 1/2 watt carbon film resistors for the RN60s and 2 watt carbon film resistors for the RL42S types is just fine, except you will have to sort more of them to get a tight channel-to-channel match. Because selenium rectifiers (the small little finned block located in the bottom middle of the chassis) become resistive with age, you may be able to increase the voltage to your bias supply by substituting a lN4004 silicon diode for this part (Dl). Because the negative voltage to the bias supply will now be higher than stock, it probably will also be necessary to change the value of Rl (10,000 2 watt resistor) to 18,000 2 watt to allow the amp to bias adjust at 1.56 volts DC across R20 in the center of rotation of P1 and P2. The St-70 and other tube amplifiers run very hot. This tends to make solder joints deteriorate with time. Re-solder all solder connections in the amplifier, including all parts, leads, and the tube sockets on the PC card. Clean the input jacks, output terminals, the bias pots, and all the tube sockets with DeoxIT-D5 (we have 5 oz. spray cans available for $20). Usually lightly "crimping" the hot (inner) terminals of the input jacks will eliminate patch cable dropouts. In the St-70 the noise characteristics, gain, power, and slew rate are dependent upon having high quality tubes in the unit. We have SovtEC EL34G+ output tubes available at $80 per set of four plus $6 shipping and a SovtEC 12X4 rectifier tube available for $15 plus $6 shipping. We do not have 7199 tubes available. Refer to the attached schematic and parts list for other service and adjustment notes on the St-70. I assume you have noticed we have not spent much time on the inner details of the circuit topography of the St-70. There may, or may not be "better" input, phase inverter, and output circuits available. The point is that almost all tube amps are mistakenly DC coupled and whatever the internal circuits are, they are driven into gross nonlinearities. The important concept is that any tube amp in which the input is limited to within the internal capabilities of the circuit will outperform any tube amp that can be driven into internal overload, no matter how expensive or complex the circuits may be. And the final limitations of a tube amplifier are the output transformers. Lots of money spent trying to achieve a "better" drive circuit probably is of little value, because the output transformers still are the limits of performance. THINGS YOU SHOULD NOT DO TO YOUR VACUUM TUBE AMPLIFIER (AND WHY). DO NOT install a solid state diode bridge to replace the vacuum tube rectifier. The supply is operating at 500 volts with line surges over 1000 volts! There are no reliable diodes available to operate at this voltage. You will be in great danger of blowing the diode bridge and damaging your power transformer and filter capacitor. In addition, the solid state supply will "turn on" instantly, and the full B+ voltage will be fed to the tubes before the heaters have warmed up and turned the tubes on. This will tend to over voltage the quad filter capacitor and capacitors downstream, which may damage them. The output tubes will run hotter than normal and have a short service life. There are no useful redeeming advantages to a solid state diode bridge. DO NOT install solid state regulators. The "aftermarket" circuits we have seen use transistors with inadequate voltage ratings (operating in the "blow-up" mode) and have severe slew rate limitations. Remember, the bandwidth of your power supply must be greater than the audio circuits, and a series bipolar regulator is bog slow! It will change the sound, it makes it much worse! DO NOT add external power capacitors. The long hookup wires will have lots of inductance and impair the high frequency performance. DO NOT rewire the amplifier internally with "magic wire." The chances are you will screw up the lead routings, add longer lead runs than the original and increase stray inductances. The probabilities of internal short circuits and bad connections increase as the wires are too large for reliable termination. DO NOT replace your capacitors with high priced and physically large "wonder caps." The larger the physical size of a given value capacitor, the greater its inductance will be, and the more trash it will dump into the circuit. Magic "wonder caps" do change the sound, they make it worse! DO NOT use polystyrene capacitors near heat generating components. They change value with temperature, and near an output tube they may even melt. DO NOT ship your vacuum tube amplifier to us to fix if you screw it up unless you CALL US FIRST at 651 330-9871. Output tubes don't survive shipping, tube amps are heavy and expensive to ship, and their performance is limited. One of the "joys" of owning a vacuum tube amplifier is learning how to fix it yourself. If you don't want to do this, you shouldn't own a vacuum tube amplifier. 2005 Note: We can get much better results now with our complete $449 Ultimate 70 Rebuild Kit. It includes a new motherboard with all new audio circuits (using the information contained herein and much more), a new B+ supply built of modern PC-card-mounted high efficiency, high reliability capacitors, and a new bias supply. It also includes new tubes to replace the now obsolete 7199 tubes. A new Input/Output jack set kit is available too for $65 with gold plated input jacks and high quality Pomona 5-way binding post output jacks. No cutting or drilling is required and step-by-step instructions, schematics, parts lists, and wiring diagrams are provided. The kit instruction manual and bare PC card are available for $149 if you want to provide your own parts. The price of the manual and PC card can be applied to the later purchase of the rest of the kit as long as they are current. The sonic quality is really special. Formula to Solve 6 dB/Octave High & Low Pass Filter Such as Recommended for the St-70 Service Notes Examining the 1.56 volt biaset test point on the St-70 can tell you much about the condition of the amplifier. If the output tubes are old, it may be impossible to adjust the bias pots to bring the voltage up high enough. Replace the output tubes. A shorted output tube may cause the bias reading to run away high. 7199 tubes are best selected by examining the output of the amp on a scope. A low gain or noisy 7199 will show excess output hum and/or not make full power. Fuse blowing can be caused by two problems. A hard blow soon after turn-on indicates a power supply short, either a defective 5AR4 tube or a shorted quad filter cap. A fuse that blows soft or after a few minutes of operation indicates a problem with the audio circuits - probably a bad 6CA7 tube. Note that the bias setting will vary with AC line voltage so the value isn't an absolute. It is possible to swap tubes channel to channel (except the 5AR4) one at a time to locate a defective tube. The new input filter circuit provides -3 dB poles at 16 Hz and 17 KHz which keeps the audio circuit working within the limits of the output transformers. The larger C10 and C11 effectively takes them out of circuit for AC signal purposes after the input filters have been installed. It is much more important to install the new input filter circuits than to replace all of the resistors and capacitors. Match R and C values channel to channel for a good gain match between the channels.

The results show that appropriate irradiation intensity can prominently decrease die pressure and apparent viscosity, increase output, reduce extrudate swell, and improve apparent quality of PP. DSC and WAX analysis demonstrate that the crystalline structure of PP is changed and the content of the beta crystalline increases through ultrasonic vibration. Special effects can be induced by ultrasound, such as strong stress, shatter and vibration, which alter the growth of PP crystals and may favor a special crystal transformation (alpha -> beta). INTRODUCTION Recently, some new processing techniques have been emerging, such as the direct application of physical (mechanical) fields on polymer melts. The route can be realized by introducing mechanical or ultrasonic vibrations. Compared with low-intensity vibration, ultrasonic waves are widely employed to influence a medium through shatter, cavitation, chemical and mechanical action, with low noise. Lemelson (1) described an apparatus and method for controlling the internal structure of plastics in a mold. By applying ultrasonic energy to the solidifying material, the apparatus can control well the crystalline structure formed during solidification. Pendleton (2) also described an ultrasonic process to modify the crystalline structure of blown polyolefin films. Khamad (3) reported that imposition of ultrasound on HDPE melts containing a small amount of butyl rubber resulted in increase of cystallinity, reduction of structural defects, and enhancement of mechanical properties. Isayev and Levin (4-7) introduced ultrasonic vibrations to an extruder by which they accomplished reclaiming rubber from old tires and found improvements of some mechanical properties of the extrudate, such as strain at break and Young's modulus. However, there is little study on crystalline structure of PP for the case when ultrasound is employed at the die entrance. This article studies PP extrusion with parallel superposition of ultrasonic waves upon the die. The effects of ultrasound vibrations during extrusion on improving processability and crystallization of PP melts are described. EXPERIMENTAL Materials and Experimental Setup PP, 2401, with a melt index of 2.5 g/10 min and a density of 0.905 g/cm^sup 3^ at 25 deg C, was commercially obtained from Yanshan Petrochemical Co., Beijing, China. The Ultrasound-Extrusion experimental setup consists of a single- screw extruder (d = 20 mm, L/D = 25), with a variable cross-section capillary having high-temperature pressure transducer and ultrasonic generator (Fig. 1). The ultrasonic frequency is 20 kHz and power ranges from 0 to 300W. The direction of ultrasonic vibration coincides with that of the melt flow. Samples used for all tests were directly from extruded strands, which are short and very near to the die. Different samples were extruded one by one at the same rotation speed, die temperature (200 deg C) and different ultrasonic intensity. They were then all cooled at the same room temperature. MFI The melt flow index of samples was measured on an American CS- 127 Melt Flow Index measuring device at 230 deg C with a load of 2160 g. Differential Scanning Calorimetry RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Die Temperature Figure 2 shows a prominently exponential ascendance in die temperature by introducing ultrasonic vibration during extrusion of PP. In presence of 250 W ultrasonic intensity, die temperature at 5 rpm jumped 10 deg C higher than without ultrasonic vibration. This is because part of the sound energy is converted into heat energy by the internal friction between the melt molecules. For a given shear rate, the temperature rise is a function of ultrasonic intensity. The higher the intensity, the more violent the molecular motion, and the greater the temperature rise. Die Pressure and Throughput The dependence of die pressure on ultrasonic intensity at different screw speed was examined. Figure 3 shows that higher ultrasonic intensity and lower rotation speed both contribute to a larger reduction of pressure, indicating that the pressure drop depends on the intensity and duration of ultrasonic treatment. An increase of both factors gives the melt the chance to obtain stronger energy from ultrasound. In addition, ultrasonic vibration during extrusion affects the throughput of extrudate; the flow rate increases with an increase in the ultrasonic wave intensity, as shown in Fig. 4. All of the above-mentioned characteristics demonstrate that ultrasonic treatment will significantly improve the extrusion efficiency. Apparent Viscosity The prominent pressure drops after the introduction of ultrasound into melts are surely related to molecular chain structure, which can be reflected in viscosity data. Figure 5 shows the dependence of apparent viscosity on ultrasonic intensity at various rotation speeds. Ultrasonic motions result in a sharp decrease of viscosity of the melt. Since higher screw speed means shorter residence time, the decrease of apparent viscosity of PP is also a function of ultrasonic intensity and time, just like the pressure reduction. Further, Fig. 6 demonstrate that MFR increases after application of ultrasound under the same extrusion conditions. But with low- intensity ultrasound, MFR changes very little-from 4.2 g/10 min (OW) to 4.7 g/ 10 min (100 W). It may be concluded that appropriate ultrasonic irradiation can accelerate molecular motion and make long entangled macromolecular chains unravel with a low degree of degradation. Die Swell The swelling of the extrudate in capillary extrusion is a manifestation of the elastic properties and the fading memory of the melt, and is a result of unrelaxed deformations generated during the extrusion process. Figure 7 shows that die swell ratios D/D^sub 0^ decrease with increasing ultrasonic irradiation power. Since swelling is a relaxation process, energy from ultrasonic irradiation can affect the relaxation of polymer melts by shortening the relaxation time of chain segments, thus decreasing the elasticity of the melt at the die entrance. It is also observed that ultrasonic waves contribute to a smoother appearance of extrudates. Crystalline Structure Ultrasound can greatly improve the processing of PP, and this effect must be a result of structural changes of the PP chain. At the same time, PP is well known for its different crystalline forms: alpha, beta and gamma forms. So the ultrasonic irradiation probably induces the change of the crystal structure. To verify this hypothesis, samples were analyzed by DSC and WAXD. Table 1 summarizes the values obtained from DSC thermograms. T^sub c^ is the crystallization temperature, T^sub onset^ is the temperature at the cross point of the megathermic tangent line and the base line at angle of alpha. Si, the tangent of alpha, is a measure of the rate of nucleation. (T^sub onset^-T^sub c^) is a measure of overall rate of crystallization of the system, which decreases with the increase of the crystallization rate (11). It has been found that with the use of ultrasonic vibration, (T^sub onset^-- T^sub c^), Si and crystallinity are lower than their respective values for a sample without ultrasonic treatment. This indicates that ultrasound prevents nucleation as well as accelerating the growth of PP crystal, and the decreased rate of nucleation may lead to lower crystallinity. Furthermore, it is also noted from Fig. 8 that in the case of ultrasound, the peak occurring at lower temperature, which corresponds to fusion of beta-form (temperature of the peak is about 145 deg C), becomes stronger and the enthalpy is higher. The other hightemperature peak due to fusion of the alpha-form is correspondingly weaker. These investigations may imply that processing PP with ultrasound causes a preference for the growth of the beta-form relative to that of the alpha-form. Table 1. It can be seen from the X-ray diffraction patterns that PP samples with and without ultrasonic treatment are different (Fig. 9 and Table 2). By introducing ultrasonic effects, peaks at theta = 16 deg, 21.3 deg increase and become markedly wider (Mg. 9). In addition, Table 2 shows the values of the increase of K. According to Turner-Jones (9), these indicate an increase of the beta-forms of polypropylene. Moreover, the data listed in Table 2 show that nearly all the d spacing of crystal planes of PP decrease and values of S increase with ultrasonic treatment. The maximum contribution (K = 29.5%) and maximum order (S = 47.9%) of the beta phase are in the samples affected by ultrasonic power of 180 W. All the above imply that ultrasonic vibrations can shorten the distances between molecular chains and decrease the crystal defects and disordered structure, so that the lattices of PP have an increased order. The enhancement of the beta-form combined with the decrease of crystallinity implies that the polymorphic transitions alpha -> beta of PP may exist in the system. CONCLUSION The application of ultrasound to extrusion can improve the processing of PP by raising the die temperature and decreasing pressure and viscosity, thus enhancing the throughput and appearance of extrudate\s. The results show that this ultrasonic process can modify the structure of crystallizable thermoplastic materials like PP during extrusion. Ultrasonic irradiation results in a reduction of the crystallinity of extruded PP. Ultrasound also shows a selective effect on the growth of different crystal forms of PP, which causes an increase of the relative amount and order of the beta-form as well as transitions of the alpha-form to the beta-form.

Chris Gallucci ran away from home at 12. By 16 he was in prison for the first time, but not the last. His life was playing out on the fringes of society, characterized by rebellion and aggression. Change seemed unlikely until he happened upon the film set of Roar, a movie featuring Hollywood actress Tippi Hedren (The Birds) and her daughter, Melanie Griffith, as well as a variety of lions, pumas, tigers and elephants. Chriswas immediately fascinated by Timbo, the gigantic bull elephant known for its misbehavior, and applied for a job as an elephant trainer on the small ranch that was its home. To win Timbo's trust, Chris chained himself up in the elephant's enclosure and tossed away the key. It was the start of a 30-year relationship that would tame the savage in Chris. Powerful photos capture the essence of elephant man Chris Gallucci's life: the small world of the ranch, walks with Timbo on the edge of the Mojave Desert, his training regime with the huge bull. Extracts from Chris's diary provide a window into his soul. Elephant Man inspires with the silent power of an intense spiritual connection between animal and man. Nomi Baumgartl is an internationally acclaimed photographer specializing in images that show the connection between man and nature. Her work has received prestigious awards, and her pictures are frequently published and exhibited. Chris Gallucci, author, biker and elephant trainer, lives in Acton, California. Since Timbo's death, Chris has continued to work as preserve supervisor at Shambala, the wild animal reserve on the edge of the Mojave Desert. Daniel Opitz is an award-winning filmmaker and founder of Ocean Mind, an independent film, photo and television production company. His work includes The Elephant Man (also called Tusks and Tattoos), which has been shown worldwide at film festivals and on television (Animal Planet). Sorry, no table of contents exists for this entry. Foreword by Daniel Opitz "I love you" and "I could kill you." The world the Elephant Man grew up in was mean and hard. He left home when he was only twelve. Throughout his teens he was involved with the violent biker culture that developed in and around Los Angeles in the late sixties. Thanks to a falsified ID and too much pride to admit it, he found himself in jail for the first time at the tender age of seventeen. His only true philosophy in those days was to show no weakness. While this mantra fueled the flames of his rebellion and brought him nothing but trouble, it also led to his eventual salvation: Timbo was a five-ton grey giant, who at nearly fifty years of age was North America's biggest and oldest African elephant bull. As stubborn as Chris himself, he too was unpredictable, fearless and always ready for a fight. Chris was not looking for anything more than a job and perhaps some excitement when he rode his chopper into Acton, California, a small town on the edge of the Mojave Desert in 1975. He found a job as a welder on the insane set of the movie Roar, which starred over 100 wild lions, cougars, tigers and two elephants, as well as Hollywood diva and Hitchcock actress Tippi Hedren and her daughter Melanie Griffith. When filming was completed, Chris and Tippi stayed behind with the wild animals. Together they converted what was left of the movie set into "Shambala -- The Roar Foundation," a non-profit organization dedicated to providing the animals the best life possible. Chris, who was drawn to gigantic Timbo from the very start, asked if he could be the elephant's new trainer. He got the job. To understand what it felt like to be an elephant, Chris spent the first night with Timbo, attaching himself to Timbo's chain and throwing away the key. To gain Timbo's trust, Chris learned to control his own demons. "See," he says, "The more relaxed and at ease I am, the more I allow Timbo to be free." In the nearly 30 years they spent together, neither Chris nor Timbo got into serious trouble again. You do not come across people like Chris Gallucci simply by chance; you get caught in their gravitational field. Chris and I got to know each other in the Bahamas in 2000, during a photo shoot with Nomi Baumgartl. A model had invited him along for his first vacation in nearly 30 years. After just a few days, however, Chris cut his Caribbean trip short. He simply could not bear the thought that due to his absence, Timbo would be again be confined and chained. Chris returned to his own small world and self-imposed prison at Shambala. I have always been drawn to people who have pushed the envelope throughout their lives, personalities who thrive on enormous challenge. A year later, when I arrived in Shambala with my film crew to document "The Elephant Man," Chris was in the midst of a huge personal crisis. For the first time he regretted his lonely life, confined to a ranch in the desert with Timbo. He shaved his long beard, sold his beloved chopper and stopped polishing his meticulously sharpened knives. But Chris would not be Chris if he did not manage to pull himself out of this deep depression. As filming progressed, he gradually found his balance again. He started his journal again, grew his beard back and bought a new motorcycle and a '57 Chevy Bel Air that he had always wanted. We finished the film and became fast friends. I valued Chris' simplicity, his attitude and way of looking at things, his entire essence, even Chris just being Chris. He never seemed to need such modern amenities as credit cards, computers or cell phones. Not because he was adverse to them, but because he was busy with other more important things. To me, he represented a sort of primal creature with an instinctive kind of wisdom and yes, an undertone of aggression. In a strange way, Chris became for me what Timbo was to him. When photographer Nomi Baumgartl gets involved with a new subject it is not only with her camera, but also with her heart and entire being. Nomi was part of our film crew in Shambala. At one point she found herself in the middle of a fallow field with a five-ton elephant hurtling toward her. "Don't move!" Chris shouted, "Don't move!" Nomi closed her eyes and all was still. Suddenly she felt a moist, warm trunk in her face, and a suction so strong it felt as if she was being sucked into a wind tunnel. "Now he trusts you." At that moment she experienced the wondrous spiritual link between man and animal, Chris and Timbo. Elephant Man is the inspiring story of how a wild animal tamed a wild man. Told through potent pictures and diary excerpts, it reflects on the powerful bond that can occur between humans and animals. Elephant Man describes their training regimen, walks through the fields together and the author's pleasure in watching Timbo play in the water. - Katy Scope Katy Lifestyles & Homes 2009 06 Elephant Man is an intriguing diary of two stubborn individuals with personality. It is a remarkable, if somewhat insane story that will keep you coming back. - Randy Midzain Winnipeg Free Press 2008 12 07 This is a story of redemption, of how a difficult animal made a human being out of a man. - Bill Robertson Saskatoon Star Phoenix 2008 12 13 [Gallucci's] diary forms most of the text, though Baumgartl's sensitive and moving photographs--of both man and beast--are the book's core. - The Globe and Mail 2008 12 06 Animal lovers will cherish this love story between Chris Gallucci, an ex-biker, and Timbo, a five-ton grey African elephant bull.... Baumgard's photographs of the two show an amazing similarity in their eyes, facial wrinkles, even their expressions. These photos show less wildness in Gallucci than intelligence and sensitivity to Timbo. Some close ups could easily be of either one. Timbo

FEARONa, M.N. GRIGGa, S.W. BIGGERb aDepartment of Chemistry, University of Sussex, Brighton, BN1 9QJ, UK bVictoria University of Technology, P.O. Box 14428, Melbourne 8001, Australia Because of the effectiveness of modern stabilisers, accelerated ageing tests must be used to evaluate their performance. Oven ageing testing is the most reliable but is time consuming. Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) has been widely used for measuring oxidation induction times (OIT) but is usually (mis)used at temperatures above the melting point of the polymer. Many polymers emit light (chemiluminescence, CL) during oxidation. CL offers an alternative method to monitor oxidation, its advantage being very high sensitivity. CL imaging of oxidative degradation has recently been made possible by the development of low noise, high sensitivity cameras, which allow multiple sampling, reducing experimental times and cost. Imaging also allows study of inhomogeneity. In collaboration with Mettler Toledo, we have combined CL measurement with DSC in a single instrument. The combination has obvious advantages where oxidation occurs simultaneously with other thermal events, e.g. melting, since the CL is sensitive only to oxidation. CL in inert atmospheres can easily detect the presence of peroxides at concentrations well below those detectable by DSC. Measurements on unstabilised samples of polypropylene show good correlation of CL with heat flow data, with kinetics consistent with the Russell mechanism for CL. Studies of the formation of carbonyl groups show that the relation of CL to C=O content is also consistent with the Russell mechanism. For stabilised samples OITs measured by both CL and DSC are similar. It is easier to operate the CL at very high sensitivity and CL can easily detect OITs above 70 h. Increased oxygen pressures allow analysis by CL under conditions where DSC signals are noisy. There is good correlation between CL values measured by single-sample CL and imaging detection. Multiple detection needs some care in order to avoid cross sample contamination but allows major economy of equipment time. Some applications of the DSC/CL method will be discussed, including the assessment of stabiliser performance and the correlation of OIT and oven ageing. ML02 RADIATION AGEING OF POLYMER MATERIALS J.L. GARDETTE, A. RIVATON Laboratoire de Photochimie Moléculaire et Macromoléculaire, UMR CNRS 6505, Université Blaise Pascal, 63177 Aubière cedex France The modifications of structure and properties of polymeric materials resulting of the ageing initiated by ionising radiations have been a subject of interest as soon as nuclear programs began. Exposure of polymers to radiative environments causes indeed a deterioration of their properties. It has been approximately 50 years since researchers first began studying the effects of ionising radiations on polymers. The main radiation-induced changes consist in scissions and/or crosslinking of the macromolecular chains, formation of gaseous products such as hydrogen or low molecular weight hydrocarbons, accumulation of oxidation products, loss and/or formation of unsaturations. Among the numerous studies devoted to the radiochemical ageing of polymers, many of them report on the mechanism of the -initiated degradation of polyolefins. This presentation concerns the behaviour of EPDM copolymers, which are composed of ethylene (PE), propylene (PP) and diene monomer (5-ethylidene 2-norbornene (ENB) in this study). These polymers find numerous applications and are often used as wire insulators or joints. If the mechanisms of photo- and thermo-oxidations of EPDM can be considered as well known, the radiation induced degradation of these polymers has only received little attention. On the basis of a recent study involving the identification of the various products that are formed, a mechanism accounting for the radiochemical degradation of EPDM has been proposed, with a peculiar attention given to the role played by oxygen and by the ENB termonomer. Two main processes are involved in the radiooxidation of EPDM. The random -radiolysis of the polymer provides a constant source of macroalkyl radicals mainly formed on ethylene units. The secondary radicals so formed are likely to initiate a selective oxidation of the polymer through free-radicals reactions involving the abstraction of labile hydrogen atoms. In particular, the decomposition of hydroperoxydes and the degradation of the ENB moieties, this latter being the most oxidisable site and the source of crosslinking, may result from hydrogen abstraction by radicalar species.4 ML03 OVERVIEW AND PARTICULARITIES IN DEGRADATION OF POLYOLEFINS DERIVED FROM FISCHER-TROPSCH SYNTHESIS I. TINCUL Sasol Technology, PO Box 1, Sasolburg, 1947, South Africa Polyolefins are without doubt the largest volume family of commercially polymers and a vast literature is dedicated to this field in the last half of century. The most complex pool of monomers is available from the Fischer Tropsch process that is gaining momentum as a major market source. When compared with ethylene oligomerization processes the main advantage of the Fischer Tropsch process is the production of odd carbon number linear and branched olefins that showed new application possibilities in both the polyethylene and polypropylene families. We prepared a large number of new polyolefins with Fischer Tropsch derived alpha olefins that have particular microstructures and morphology according to the type of branch, length of branch and number of branches / 1000 carbons. It is known that steric factors may play an important role in polyolefin degradation and that tertiary carbon is labile to oxidative attack. A decrease in crystallinity with the increase of comonomer content may favour auto-oxidation due to higher oxygen absorbtion. Very little literature on degradation of polyolefins prepared with Fisher Tropsch derived olefins is available. In this paper is presented and discussed some particularities on the degradation of polyolefins Fischer Tropsch derived. The manifestation of oxidation weather by temperature or aging concerning polymer appearance as discoloration, loss of optical properties, loss of mechanical properties and surface cracks were observed. This behaviour was similar to known polyolefins. Oxidation induction time as measured by DSC varies with the number of branch and length of branch introduced in the polymer chain by a certain comonomer. The thermal stability was measured also by thermogravimetry and compared with the polymer structure and thermal behaviour. The degradation temperature increases with an increase of carbon number of the comonomer. Investigation for a series of ethylene co-polymers and ter-polymers with linear and branched alpha olefins showed an increase of pre-exponential factor as a function of carbon number in an Arrhenius type equation. A decomposition kinetic study showed that the activation and the rate constant is also related to the size and type of branch. Rheological investigation showed a similar pattern. It was concluded that while polyolefins obtained with Fischer Tropsch derived olefins showed a behaviour similar with known polyolefins, particularities in degradation does exist and are related to the number and type of branch. ML04 ESSENTIAL CRITERIA FOR THE SUCCESSFUL RECOVERY OF PLASTICS N. MAYNE Association of Plastics Manufacturers in Europe, Avenue E. Van Nieuwenhuyse 4, Box 3, B – 1160 Brussels E-mail address: neil.mayne apme.org Of the many options for recovery of plastics at the end-of-life, mechanical recycling is in principle the preferred route. There is an increasing understanding of the mechanisms, which affect the degradation of polymers or physical property enhancement by increasing their compatibility with other polymers. While many laboratory scale experiments demonstrate the potential for high levels of recycling, in practice the levels achieved on an industrial scale with post-consumer plastics can be viewed as disappointingly low. In addition to economic considerations, this is because there are a limited number of applications allowing closed loop recycling and there is a mismatch between the supply of recyclate and demand from the market. New developments will increase the potential, but such recycling will nevertheless remain limited. Feedstock recycling technologies offer versatility and many large scale processes have been developed and demonstrated. Logistics and supply commitments are key factors in determining viability. To date, fully commercial plants are only operational in Germany and Japan. A number of active developments are, however, currently underway in a number of European countries. Energy recovery will become an increasingly important recovery option as it is also being stimulated by restrictions on the landfilling of waste. Even if the full potential of mechanical recycling were to be realized, the major part of total plastics waste would still be available for use as an alternative fuel. This means that with the expected growth of plastics, this represents an increasingly important source of energy, equivalent to millions of tonnes of imported oil each year. The challenge for the successful recovery of plastics is to identify and use the optimum combination of options, underpinned by continuing innovation in process, product and recovery technologies in order to increase the resource efficiency of products throughout their whole life-cycle. ML05 OPTIMISAZION OF PROCESSING CONDITIONS IN THE RECYCLING OF POLYCONDENSATION POLYMERS F.P. LA MANTIA, R. SCAFFARO Dipartimento di Ingegneria Chimica dei Processi e dei Materiali Università di Palermo, Viale delle Scienze, 90128, Palermo, Italy Mechanical recycling of polymers is a very complex and difficult process because repetitive melt processing can lead to severe degradation of these materials with subsequent deterioration of all the properties. For condensation polymers, the degradation rate is much faster in the presence of water that induces depolymerization reactions, having also a synergistic effect with thermomechanical degradation and exalting the loss of properties. Indeed, a careful drying prior to processing can drastically reduce the degradation phenomena but increasing the complexity of the process and its cost. The aim of this work is to study the effect of the reprocessing of some polycondensation polymers with and in absence of water. Moreover, the possibility to process wet polymer in the presence of proper stabilisers to avoid the drying step has been studied too. The materials chosen for the study have been polyamide 6, polycarbonate and polyethyleneterephtalate. The results indicate that for the three different systems considered, the wet processing causes, as expected, a strong reduction of the mechanical properties and of the molecular weight, as evidenced by rheological and thermal measurements. If a degassing stage is added to the processing apparatus, a certain improvement of the properties is observed. This can be explained in terms of humidity removing with consequent reduction of the hydrolytic chain scission. When nitrogen flow is added to the degassing, both humidity and oxygen are practically eliminated from the system, and a further improvement of the properties is observed. This can be explained with the further reduction of the humidity but it also suggests that degradation mechanism involves reactions. The presence small amounts (500 ppm) of a particular antioxidant has a positive effect in all the cases. In particular, the adding of antioxidant can substitute the drying stage as it is able to protect the macromolecules from hydrolysis. This behaviour can be explained considering that this antioxidant is more prone to hydrolysis than the polymer, thus removing the water from the melt and decreasing the degradation rate. Such consideration has been proved using different antioxidants with different tendency to hydrolysis: using antioxidants with theoretical reduced hydrolysis tendency caused a parallel reduction of the protection with consequent loss of properties. The positive effect of the presence of the antioxidant has been also verified for several reprocessing steps (up to five). The results indicate that the presence of the antioxidant still have positive effects also after several recycling operation. It can be concluded that the mechanical recycling of condensation polymers can be effectuated with practically any loss of properties if an adequate removal of humidity from the system is performed. A valid alternative to the complex and expensive pre-drying operation can be the adding of antioxidants that undergo hydrolysis in vice of the polymers. ML06 FEEDSTOCK RECYCLING OF PLASTICS IN JAPAN A.OKUWAKI Tohoku University, Graduate School of Environmental Studies,07 Aoba, Sendai, 980-8579 Various commercial plants for feedstock recycling of waste plastics have started up in Japan. In 1999, only Niigata liquefaction plant was operated. Now they are liquefaction at Sapporo, and Mikasa, Blast Furnace application by NKK, Coke Oven application by Nippon Steel Corp., Gasification by EBARA-UBE, and Glycolysis of PET bottles by Teijin. Separated PET bottles are now used as raw material for polyester fibers, 30,000t/y in capacity from April, 2002, and the two commercial plants for the Bottle to Bottle recycling are under construction for the first time in the world. Clearly this is related to the practical implementation of the Containers and Packaging Recycling Law carried out in 1997 for PET bottles and in 2000 for the other plastics. This law affords allocating the cost for feedstock recycling of waste plastics separated only in homes. It has created attractive markets and thus, they say that the separated waste plastics are even in short supply in Japan. Recovery of PET bottles increases successfully since 1997, but that of plastics increases dramatically since 2000 when the law has carried out. On the other hand, their cost for recycling decreases gradually. At present, their recycling fees are quite expensive compared to the cost for treatment of industrial waste plastics. However, it is expected that the cost will continue to drop. This trend suggests that the active competitions among various techniques proceed including the improvement of collection system. This situation creates big chances for the world recycling technologies in the Japanese market and refine necessarily both techniques and logistic systems. The Home Appliances Recycling Law came into full force in April 2001 is to be revised within a few years. In such process, they say, not only the recycling of their plastics cases, but also that of printed circuit boards are introduced to elevate the recycling degree. In addition, the Law for Recycling of End-of-Life Vehicles has passed through the Parliament, July 2002. They say, an average cost per car will be 20,000 Yen, namely 151Euro. Clearly this law should proceed the recycling of automotive shredder residue. These environmental policy of Japanese Government are sure to promote more the recycling of waste plastics in Japan

"They've grown up in my absence," the 63-year-old Zakaradze says ruefully. "But they still remember me." In September 2010, Zakaradze was captaining a run-down tanker, the "Olib G," through the perilous Gulf of Aden when his ship was approached by a ship manned by armed Somali pirates. "We called for patrolling ships," says Zakaradze. "But meanwhile, the vessel approached us and one of the pirates managed to come onboard our ship. As soon as he got on, he started shooting. The others followed suit. They gathered us together on the captain's deck. In five minutes, a military ship and a helicopter arrived, but it was too late already. Nothing could be done." No Way Out Held at gunpoint, Zakaradze and his crew members -- 14 Georgians and three Turks -- were forced to turn the "Olib G" around and drop anchor off the Somali coast. There, the sailors spent the next 16 months enduring searing heat and brutal abuse at the hands of their Somali captors, who demanded $9 million in ransom. Zakaradze's experience, recounted to RFE/RL's Georgian Service in its "Liberty Diaries" program, provides a rare glimpse into what the captain himself calls the "infernal torment" of life on a pirate ship. "They treated us very mercilessly, extremely mercilessly," he says. "Kept us chained together like dogs, for eight months. We had no food, no water, and no access to the toilet for 56 hours at a time. Some days were even worse. Once they brought in bottles of urine, poured it over us, then coated us with flour. They left us like that for 24 hours." Stranded At Sea Zakaradze had nowhere to turn for help. The Greek company that owned the "Olib G" had gone bankrupt. Repeated calls to the owners went unanswered. And the vessel itself was about to be scrapped, so there was no chance of exchanging the ship for their release. The case is strikingly similar to that of another Georgian cargo ship, the "Vasilios N," which was stranded for nearly a year in the Libyan port of Misurata when its Greek and Italian owners abandoned the craft and its debts. As the months went by, Zakaradze says, life on board the "Olib G" became increasingly desperate. "The [pirates'] lawyer, or translator, would come on board the ship," he says. "Since our efforts to reach the ship's owner had failed, they started asking us to call home and ask our family members to organize rallies, so that our government would [feel compelled to] pay them." Booming Business Piracy has become a growing threat in the Gulf of Aden, which is part of the busy Suez canal shipping route linking the Mediterranean Sea with the Arabian Sea and Indian Ocean. Somali groups account for more than half of all piracy attacks worldwide, particularly in the narrow Gulf corridor, which some 21,000 ships pass through each year. Hostage-taking has become so profitable that many Somali pirates are eager to publicize the suffering of their captives in order to ensure ransom demands are met. A blurry video released to the media a full year after their capture showed the "Olib G" crew looking gaunt and weary. Zakaradze says now there were many occasions when he and his crew were close to death. "For 16 months, all we ate was pasta and rice, boiled in salted water," he says. "Our families were more or less aware of our condition, but we kept many things secret from them. For instance, I didn't reveal until I got back what they were doing to me. I was stripped from the waist up and tied to the stern of the ship, forced to stay like this for eight hours under open sky, in 100-degree heat." "I was the eldest on the ship," Zakaradze adds. "So they probably thought I was going to die and that that would speed things up [with the ransom deal]." Home, But Still Healing In the end, the Georgian government intervened, finally securing the release of the Georgian and Turkish "Olib B" sailors this month. Somali media reported that a $3 million ransom was paid for the men's' release, but Georgian officials deny any money changed hands. Zakaradze himself says he's not sure what finally brought his crew's torment to an end, but credits his men with never losing hope. But now, back in Batumi, Zakaradze is grappling with the consequences of his ordeal. His eyesight and hearing are failing and his face looks permanently worn. Even the winter snow has proven hard to take. "After the heat of Somalia, Batumi's climate is hard for me," the captain says in a tired voice. "I find it difficult to be in cold weather."

Following this is an evening of games for the youngsters and falling to sleep on the sofa for the oldies.New Year wise, we don’t have any plans as yet.

All with my wife and few friends (except coding J).Greetings to readers :Wishing all CrazyLeaf Design Blog readers happiness (and, hopefully, the rest follows).Alen Grakalic | Css GlobeWebsite : http://cssglobe.com/How will you spend your Holidays ?I will spend it with my family.

Does it go the way of football and allow the moneyed clubs to procure all the best and brightest young talent, thus making any battle for trophies a three or four-horse race? Does it want to lose its long and proud tradition whereby any of the 18 counties can realistically win the Championship? In short, does our summer game want to fully embrace capitalism and all the free-market obligations that that entails? I think most fans of the county game would answer no to those questions. We want to retain the competitiveness that has given us gripping climaxes to last two county seasons. And we want to be charmed by the heart-warming stories of cash-strapped clubs being led to title glory by long-serving and loyal legends of the game. So what is the solution? Winston Churchill once said that capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings. In the case of cricket clubs those blessings are the likes of the Taylors, the Denlys, and, who knows, in the future, the Shiv Thakors and the Reece Topleys. In a normal profession those players would naturally gravitate towards the best paid jobs and leave their educators, usually the state, behind. They would then, of course, reward those educators for their efforts in the form of taxes and that money would then be used to train the next generation – and so the cycle continues. In cricket, unlike even in premiership football - that Mecca to capitalism - this doesn’t happen. The likes of Leicestershire or Kent do not currently receive any of football’s compensation or solidarity payments when they lose their best and brightest young talent to the Manchester Uniteds of cricket, meaning that they suffer a gradual depletion of their resources which causes the problems to escalate. Until recently, this lack of reward didn’t matter as players were reluctant to move clubs and the financial rewards for staging international cricket – the single most important factor in making some clubs so rich - were not so high. That has all changed over the past decade or so, with the likes of Test match endowed Surrey now able to spend three times as much as the likes of Test matchless Kent on player salaries. This means that, as well as producing their own players, Surrey are able to poach the best young talent from the smaller counties without paying any form of compensation for the training and nurturing that the player has received through that county’s Academy system. Numerous moves have been suggested over the past few years, including salary caps and the like, but nothing has really changed the view that county cricket is sleepwalking into a two-tier oblivion. Perhaps the only answer is to adopt a transfer system similar to that used in football – only to perhaps go further – so that the smaller counties can be compensated for their losses. After all, the principle aim of counties – unlike for premiership football teams - is not to win trophies but to produce England players, so why should Leicestershire et al be penalised financially for doing just that?

County CricketCounty Cricketers Abroad Part III With many of England's county cricketers now heading home from their off-season destinations in time for Christmas, we take our monthly look at how they have been performing for their franchises or states so far in the 2011-12 season. Pietersen To Stay With Surrey Indefinitely England batsman Kevin Pietersen has extended his contract with Surrey until the end of his international career. Pietersen, who first signed for the club on a one-year deal in 2011 following a loan spell in 2010, will play for the Brown Caps until he no longer has an ECB Central Contract. Woakes Extends Bears Contract Warwickshire and England seam-bowler Chris Woakes has signed a new two-year deal with the county which will see him remain with the club until at least the end of the 2014 season. Ben Harmison Signs Kent Deal Kent have signed former Durham all-rounder Ben Harmsion on a contract of undisclosed length ahead of the 2012 season. Tomlinson And Rossington Extend County Contracts Middlesex wicket-keeper Adam Rossington and Hampshire seam bowler James Tomlinson have both signed contract extensions with their respective counties. Rossington, an 18 year-old who has represented England’s Under-19 side, has extended his existing contract by one year to the end of 2013, while Tomlinson has also signed until the end of the 2013 season. Philander Signs For Somerset Somerset have tentatively announced that they have secured the services of South African all-rounder Vernon Philander as their overseas player for the first two months of the 2012 season.

May 31, 1:30 p.m. ** (Note special time) Hui Guo (Fields Institute) Integrable Teichmuller spaces We introduce a new kind of subspaces of the universal Teichmuller space. Some characterizations of them are given in terms of univalent functions, Beltrami coefficients and quasisymmetric homeomorphisms of the boundary of the unit disc. May 1 Mitsuhiro Shishikura (Kyoto University and Fields Institute) Teichmuller contraction and renormalization According to Royden-Gardiner theorem, any holomorphic mapping between Teichmuller spaces does not expand the Teichmuller distance. (Just like Schwarz-Pick theorem says that any holomorphic mapping between hyperbolic Riemann surfaces does not expand the Poincare metric.) In the theory of renormalizations, one often wants to show that the renormalization map (which is defined in a transcendental way) on the space of certain dynamical systems is hyperbolic or contracting. Therefore Royden-Gardiner theorem is an obvious candidate of tools to obtain the contraction. This idea was first used by Sullivan in his work on generalized Feigenbaum type renormalization. In this talk, we will discuss two applications of Teichmuller theory to renormalizations: 1. Parabolic renormalization for parabolic fixed points and their perturbations. 2. Rigidity of real quadratic polynomials only using Yoccoz's combinatorial a priori bounds. For these cases, we deal with the Teichmuller spaces of a disk or a punctured disk and show that a certain inclusion map induces a contraction in Teichmuller distance. Apr. 17 Jeremy Kahn (SUNY Stony Brook / Fields Institute) The complex a priori bounds, continued We describe how to reduce the a priori bounds for bounded-primitive type renormalization to a simple combinatorial statement regarding the combinatorial dynamics of arcs. We show how the combinatorial statement follows from the expanding dynamics on the Hubbard tree. Apr. 10 Mary Rees (Liverpool) A fundamental domain for V_{3}. Abstract: We consider the space V_{n} of quadratic rational maps with one named critical point of period n, quotiented by M\"obius conjugacy preserving named critical points. Thus, the space V_{1} is the space of all quadratic polynomials up to affine conjugacy. The parameter space V_{1} must be one of the most studied in all dynamics. But V_{1} differs from most other parameter spaces in an important respect: there is a natural ``base map'' and, within the Mandelbrot set, natural paths, up to a natural homotopy, to any other map in the Mandelbrot set. The simplest parameter space for which this fails to be true is V_{3}. One can say (truthfully) that there is no canonical choice of fundamental domain for V_{3,m}, which is obtained from V_{3} by removing a natural dynamically defined puncture set. I shall exhibit a fundamental domain, using the dynamical planes of three maps within V_{3} and a theory known as the ``Resident's View''. This enables one to at least formulate an analogue of MLC for this family. Three parts of the fundamental domain are straightforward (although the proof in one of these cases is probably new). The structure of the fourth part is much more interesting, involving a spiral in the dynamical plane of the so-called ``aeroplane'' quadratic polynomial z\mapsto z^{2}+c for the (unique) real parameter c for which the critical point 0 has period 3. Apr. 3 Matilde Martinez (Fields Institute) Measures on hyperbolic surface laminations We will consider laminations by hyperbolic Riemann surfaces, and different measures that can be associated with these objects (holonomy-invariant measures, harmonic measures, measures invariant under the geodesic and horocycle flows). We will state some results that show how these measures are related. We will mainly focus on two families of examples: Riccati foliations and Hilbert modular foliations. Mar. 20 Peter Makienko Remarks on Ruelle Operator, Invariant Differentials and invariant line fields problem.

Combinatorics of Rational maps Mar. 6 Roland Roeder (Fields) Newton's Method in two complex variables: Indeterminant points and the topology of basins of attraction The equations x(x-1)=0, y^2+Bxy-y=0 are easy to solve, but the Newton Map N: C^2 \rightarrow C^2 for finding the four roots has very complicated dynamics: N is four-to-one and N has points of indeterminacy. Furthermore, high iterates of N have many points of indeterminacy. By restricting to parameters |1-B|>1, all of these points of indeterminacy are in the set X_l = Re(x) < 1/2, which is invariant under N. If one wants to consider the homotopy type of a basin of attraction, W(r_i), for one of the roots r_i \in X_l under N, one encounters a kind of ``topological indeterminacy.'' When studying the homotopy type of a loop \gamma in W(r_i), should one consider the homotopies that hit the points of indeterminacy of N^k or should one avoid them? Both seem reasonable. To avoid such questions, one can perform blow-ups at the points of indeterminacy of all iterates of N, obtaining a new space X_l^\infty from X_l on which all iterates of N are defined. We show how to make precise the notion of linking numbers in X_l^\infty, overcoming a different kind of indeterminacy that is a result of the fact that H_2(X_l^\infty) is infinitely generated. Having developed this technology, I will explain how we can use it to study the homotopy type of the basins of attraction W(r_i) within X_l^\infty. Feb. 27 Robert Devaney (Boston University) Rings around the McMullen Domain Feb. 13 Andrzej Bis (University of Illinois at Chicago) Dynamics of foliated spaces in codimension greater than one Abstract. Dynamics of foliated spaces can be characterized by the exceptional minimal sets and topological entropy. Dynamical theory of codimension one foliations was developed by Hector, Cantwell and Conlon, and others. We present some results on exceptional minimal sets, which are analogous to the attractors in a standard dynamical system, of foliated spaces in codimension greater than one. Feb. 6 Yoel Feler (Fields Institute) Holomorphic endomorphisms of configuration spaces Abstract: The most traditional configuration space C(X,n) of a complex space X consists of all n point subsets ("configurations") Q in X. If X carries an additional geometric structure, it may be taken into account; say if X=CP^m or C^m, the space C(X,n;gp) of geometrically generic configurations consists of all n point configurations Q such that no hyperplane in X contains more than m points of Q. An automorphism T of X (preserving an additional geometric structure, whenever it is relevant) produces a holomorphic endomorphism f of the configuration space via f(Q)=TQ. If the automorphism group Aut X is a complex Lie group, one may take T=T(Q) depending analytically on a configuration Q and define the corresponding holomorphic endomorphism f by f(Q)=T(Q)Q. Such a map f is called tame. In the talk, we shall see that for every non-hyperbolic Riemann surface X all "non-degenerate" holomorphic endomorphisms of configuration spaces C(X,n) are tame. To some extent, this is true also for spaces of geometrically generic configurations. Jan. 30 Tomoki Kawahira (Fields Institute) Tessellation and Lyubich-Minsky laminations associated with quadratic maps Abstract: In 1990s, M.Lyubich and Y.Minsky introduced the hyperbolic 3-laminations associated with rational maps as an analogue of the hyperbolic 3-manifolds associated with Kleinian groups. In this talk I will present a new method to describe topological and combinatorial changes of laminations associated with hyperbolic-to-parabolic degeneration of quadratic maps. The method is based on tessellation of filled Julia sets, which gives a nice organization of the dynamics inside the filled Julia set like external rays outside. Jan. 23 Dierk Schleicher (International University Bremen) Dynamics of transcendental entire functions from the point of view of polynomials Abstract: In this talk, we will discuss some fundamentals of iterated entire functions and indicate why and how they differ from polynomial dynamics, with a special focus on the simplest representatives in both cases, and a view towards generalization. Jan. 16 Dmitrii V. Anosov (Steklov Mathematical Institute) A lemma about families of epsilon pseudo-trajectories revisited In hyperbolic dynamics there are results related to the existence of a true trajectory near an epsilon pseudo-trajectory for sufficiently small epsilon (although, formally, some of these results are expressed rather differently.) Many years ago I found a lemma which covers most of these questions. The proof is rather involved and some famous mathematicians expressed complaints about the difficulty. In this talk, I will present a simplified version of the proof. Dec. 5 Viviane Baladi (Institut Mathematiques de Jussieu) Anisotropic spaces of distributions and dynamical zeta functions Abstract: (Joint work with M. Tsujii) The Ruelle transfer operator is a powerful tool in ergodic theory, which involves composition with the dynamics. Many relevant dynamical systems are hyperbolic, i.e. they involve contracting and expanding directions. Composition with a contraction improves regularity - but composing with an expanding map "worsens" regularity: It has been an open problem for many years to find a space of distributions on which composition by a hyperbolic diffeomorphism (of finite smoothness) can be well understood. Last year we constructed such a space and estimated the essential spectral radius of the transfer operator on this space. After recalling this result, we shall describe more recent progress including spectral interpretation of zeroes of dynamical determinants. Nov. 28 Kristian Bjerklov (University of Toronto) The dynamics of the quasi-periodic Schroedinger cocycle at the lowest energy of the spectrum Abstract: We will study properties of the quasi-periodic Schroedinger equation at the lowest energy of the spectrum. This will lead us into the study of phase transitions. Moreover, we will answer a question by M. Herman concerning the geometry of a certain minimal set - a non-chaotic strange atractor - of the projective Schroedinger cocycle. We study the case of large coupling constant and Diophantine frequency.

Foliations of \Bbb CP^2 have an algebraic origin: they are defined by polynomial vector fields, but their behavior is highly transcendental. Their properties are drastically different from those of real polynomial vector fields. Properties of density of leaves, absolute rigidity and existence of a countable number of limit cycles were discovered by different authors in 60s and 70s. The talk will present these results together with a survey of the further development and open problems. Foliations of \Bbb C^2 have an analytic origin: they are defined by analytic vector fields. Generic properties of these fields were studied very recently. Yet genericity of density of leaves and existence of the infinite number of complex limit cycles is recently proved. Moreover, generic leaves of such foliations are either disks, or cylinders. These results are obtained by graduate students Firsova, Kutuzova and Volk. Nov. 21 Konstantin Khanin (University of Toronto) Minimizers for random Lagrangian systems Abstract: We shall discuss random Aubry-Mather theory and prove that for time-dependent random Lagrangian systems on compact manifolds there exists a unique global minimizer. In the one-dimensional case we show that the global minimizer corresponds to a hyperbolic invariant measure for the random Lagrangian flow. We also discuss dynamical properties of shocks and show that their global structure is quite rigid and reflects the topology of the configuration manifold. Nov. 14 ** talk at 4:10 p.m. Israel Sigal (University of Toronto). Spectral Renormalization Group and Theory of Radiation Abstract: Non-relativistic quantum electrodynamics describes interaction of charged particles (electrons and nuclei) with quantized electro-magnetic field (photons). The key problem here is to describe emission and absorption of radiation by systems of matter such as atoms and molecules. In this talk I will present some recent rigorous results on the problem of radiation and describe a novel renormalization group technique used in proving these results. I will not assume any prior knowledge of quantum field theory or quantum mechanics. Nov. 7 Marco Martens (University of Groeningen) Henon renormalization (I) Abstract: This mini-course will introduce a renormalization operator for dissipative Henon-like maps. The fixed point of the one-dimensional renormalization operator will also be a hyperbolic fixed point of the Henon-renormalization operator. This corresponds to universal geometrical properties of the Cantor attractor of infinitely renormalizable Henon-like maps. However, the two-dimensional theory is richer than the unimodal case. In particular, the Cantor attractor is not rigid, does not lie on a smooth curve and generically does not have bounded geometry. The quantitative aspects of these phenomena are controlled by the average Jacobian. The global topological properties of finitely renormalizable Henon-like maps in phase and parameter space are also controlled by the average Jacobian. In particular, density of hyperbolicity will be discussed in a neighborhood of the infinitely renormalizable maps. Oct. 31 Hans Koch (University of Texas, Austin) Renormalization of vector fields (I) Abstract: This mini-course covers some of the recent developments in the renormalization of flows - mainly Hamiltonian flows and skew flows. After stating some of the problems and describing alternative approaches, we focus on the definition and basic properties of a single renormalization step. A second part deals with the construction of conjugacies and invariant tori, including shearless tori, and non-differentiable tori for critical Hamiltonians. Then we discuss properties related to the spectrum of the linearized renormalization transformation, such as the accumulation rates for sequences of closed orbits. The last part describes extensions from "simple" to Diophantine rotation vectors. This involves sequences of renormalization transformations that are related to continued fractions expansions in one and more dimensions. Whenever appropriate, the discussion of details will be restricted to special cases where inessential technical complications can be avoided. Oct. 24 Michael Shub (U Toronto) Lower bounds for the entropy in several families of dynamical systems Abstract: Using soft techniques we prove lower bounds for the maximum entropy of a system in a family in terms of the entropy of a random product of the systems in the family. We accomplish this for two families of immersions of the circle. For one family this is joint work with Leonel Robert and Enrique Pujals and the other Rafael de la Llave and Carles Simo. Time permitting we recall a two dimensional analog whose entropy properties are still unknown, but for which partial results have been achieved in joint work with Francois Ledrappier, Carles Simo and Amie Wilkinson. Oct. 17 Robert MacKay (University of Warwick, UK) Some robustly mixing fluid flows Abstract: I suggest an example of a C^3 divergence-free vector field in a domain of R^3 with smooth boundary, vanishing on the boundary, which is mixing and remains so for all small perturbations in this class. Two other candidates are also presented. Oct. 10 Thankgiving holiday Oct. 3 Charles Pugh (UC Berkeley) Smoothing Topological Manifolds Abstract: The Cairns-Whitehead Smoothing Theorem is proved by dynamical systems methods, namely the Invariant Section Theorem. Sept. 26 Roland Roeder (Fields Institute) Super-stable manifolds for Newton's methods in two complex variables Abstract: While the equations x(x-1)=0, y^2+Bxy-y=0 are easy to solve, the dynamics of the Newton map N(x,y) for finding the four roots is quite complicated. In particular, N is many-to-one and N has points of indeterminacy. The two vertical lines x=0 and x=1 are invariant under N and super-attracting. Within these lines the ''circles'' Re(y) = 1/2 and Re(y) = (1-B)/2, respectively, are hyperbolically repelling with multiplier 2. In this talk we will prove that these circles have superstable manifolds of real dimension 3 using the technique of holomorphic motions. These manifolds extend to all points with Re(x) < 1/2 and Re(x) > 1/2 respectively and provide insight into the topology of the basins of attraction for the four roots. This work follows the ideas of John H. Hubbard and Sebastien Krief. Sep. 19 M. Shishikura, Kyoto University Renormalization for irrationally indifferent fixed points of holomorphic maps Abstract: Indifferent fixed points of holomorphic maps give rise to delicate problems such as linearization problems, discontinuous Julia sets etc. In this talk, we review the study of those phenomena from the renormalization point of view. We define a certain class of holomorphic maps with "non-degenerate" parabolic fixed points. The parabolic renormalizaion is defined for this class and shown to leave the class invariant. Then the class is still invariant under a small perturbation, therefore we can handle irrationally indifferent fixed points with large continued fraction coefficients. This is a joint work with Hiroyuki Inou. We will compare this approach with Yoccoz's and McMullen's renormalizations. We will also mention possible applications such as Buff-Cheritat's work toward positive measure Julia

Kentucky Court of Justice Chief Justice appoints Judge Doughlas M. George as chief regional circuit judge for Cumberland Region Press Release Date: Monday, August 18, 2008 Contact Information: Jamie Ball Public Information Specialist502-573-2350, x 2233 jamieball@kycourts.net http://courts.ky.gov Frankfort, Ky. -- Chief Justice of Kentucky John D. Minton Jr. has appointed Circuit Court Judge Doughlas M. George of Springfield to the post of chief regional circuit judge for the Cumberland Region, which is comprised of 23 counties in southeastern Kentucky. Judge George, whose appointment was effective July 1, succeeds Judge Roderick Messer as chief regional circuit judge. Judge Messer retired June 30 to become a senior judge. As chief regional circuit judge, Judge George serves in an administrative capacity. His responsibilities include assigning special judges to serve in cases when presiding judges certify that a special judge is needed. The Cumberland Region covers 10 judicial circuits and consists of Adair, Bell, Casey, Clay, Clinton, Cumberland, Green, Harlan, Jackson, Knox, Laurel, Leslie, Lincoln, Marion, McCreary, Monroe, Pulaski, Rockcastle, Russell, Taylor, Washington, Wayne and Whitley counties. Judge George is a circuit judge for Kentucky’s 11th Judicial Circuit, which is comprised of Green, Marion, Taylor and Washington counties. He has served as circuit judge for the 11th Judicial Circuit since January 1998. He is also chief circuit judge for the four-county circuit. Judge George served 14 years as a District Court judge prior to joining the circuit bench. Chief Justice Minton appointed Circuit Judge Paul E. Braden, who serves McCreary and Whitley counties, as vice chief regional circuit judge for the Cumberland Region.

accelerated dragon (Non-Maroczy) Main Line With 11...qh5 Home > Chess > Openings > opening analysis > archive > accelerated dragon (Non-Maroczy) Main Line With 11...qh5 Search Our Site Search The Web ACCELERATED DRAGON (NON-MAROCZY) MAIN LINE WITH 11...Qh5 By Donaldson & Silman By Donaldson & Silman I (Silman) was recently talking to my friend John Donaldson about the Accelerated Dragon (a long-time favorite of mine, while Donaldson is one of the world’s great authorities on this opening). After the moves 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 g6 5.Nc3 Bg7 6.Be3 Nf6 7.Bc4 Qa5 8.0–0 0–0 9.Bb3 d6 10.h3 Bd7 11.f4, I used the solid 11...Nxd4 12.Bxd4 Bc6 13.Qd3 Rad8 in the final years of my career. However, in earlier times I had a real love for 11...Rac8 when both 12.Qf3 and 12.Nf3 are met by 12...Qh5. This favorite of the late grandmaster Leonid Stein scored well for Black in the mid 60s before some setbacks put it on the rubbish heap. Though it’s not clear that this “Stein Variation” is actually bad for Black, Kapengut wondered if ...Rac8 was really necessary, and thus he came up with 11...Qh5. Black had the usual ups and downs before this, too, was relegated to the “theoretically dubious” pile. 11...Qh5, GOOD OR BAD? Years went by and grandmaster Roman Dzindzichashvili became interested in the Accelerated Dragon and infused the opening with many new ideas. In particular, he was quite high on 11...Qh5 (that’s how openings are: they strike fear into various hearts, they get “refuted,” and then they make a comeback), and Gata Kamsky decided to give it a try, too. A brief flurry of international activity followed and then, once again, it was laid to rest...before being raised from the ashes all over again by Dzindzi! Since retiring from active play, I find myself way out of the theoretical loop and so I was trying to milk Donaldson’s brain. “John, last I heard, 11...Qh5 seemed playable. Has anything new been discovered?” As a response, JD kindly sent the following annotated game. By the way, any readers who have experience in the 11...Nxd4, 11...Rc8 followed by 12...Qh5, or in the 11...Qh5 lines are welcome to share their games and/or analysis (click HERE to contact me or HERE to contact Donaldson). JOHN DONALDSON'S REPLY: Jeremy, I didn’t see anything convincing for White when we wrote our book and I still don’t see anything now! Here’s the latest. N Yap – D Blohm [B35] San Francisco, 2003 Notes by Donaldson 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 g6 5.Nc3 Bg7 6.Be3 Nf6 7.Bc4 Qa5 8.0–0 0–0 9.Bb3 d6 10.h3 Bd7 11.f4 Qh5 12.Nf3 b5 13.a3 a5 14.Qd3 b4!? DZINDZHI’S INFLUENCE MAKES ITSELF FELT More commonly seen is 14...a4, but the text might be better. 15.Nd5 15.Ne2 bxa3 16.Ng3 axb2 and now 17.Nxh5 bxa1=Q 18.Rxa1 Nxh5 is an interesting Queen sacrifice proposed by Blohm's teacher GM Roman Dzindzhihashvili. AN IMPORTANT POSITION! The position in the diagram seems fine for Black, but not taking on h5 doesn’t seem to give White anything at all: 17.Ra4 (or 17.Rab1 Nb4 18.Nxh5 Nxd3 19.Nxf6+ Bxf6 20.cxd3 a4 and the two pawns are better than the piece) 17...Qh6 18.f5 g5 19.Bxg5 Ne5 20.Bxh6 Nxd3 21.Bxg7 Kxg7 22.cxd3 Bxa4. The analysis here, too, is by Dzindzhi. 15.axb4 axb4 16.Rxa8 (16.Nd5 runs into 16...Rxa1 17.Rxa1 Bxh3) 16...Rxa8 17.Ne2 Qa5, =, Hector-Minzer, La Coruna 1995, allows Black to complete his plan of bringing the Queen back to the queenside. 15...a4?! 15...bxa3! 16.Rxa3 Nxd5 puts the onus on White as b2 is hanging. THE OPENING HASN’T GONE WELL FOR WHITE Note that 17.exd5 Nb4 wins serious material for Black. 16.Bc4 bxa3 17.Qxa3 Nxd5 17...Nxe4 18.Nb6 Rad8 19.Nxd7 Rxd7 20.Qxa4 is much better for White. 18.Bxd5 Rab8 19.c3 Rfc8 19...e6 was the best try with the idea 20.Qxd6 exd5 21.exd5 Bxh3 22.dxc6 Rxb2 23.gxh3 Qxh3 White should answer 19...e6 with 20.Ba2 and some advantage. 20.Rad1 The immediate 20.Ng5 looks stronger. 20...Be8 21.Ng5 Na5 22.e5 Qe2 23.Bd2 Nc4 24.Qa2 24.Bxc4 Qxc4 25.exd6 exd6 26.Bc1 d5 27.f5, =. 24...Rxb2? Fritz suggests the interesting line 24...Nxd2 25.Rfe1 (25.Bxf7+ Bxf7 26.Qxf7+ Kh8 27.Qd5 Qe3+ 28.Kh1 Bxe5 29.Qxd2 Qxd2 30.Rxd2 Bf6 31.Ne6 a3 and Black is doing fine.) 25...Qd3. 25.Bxc4 Rxd2 26.Qxd2?? 26.Bxf7+ Bxf7 27.Qxf7+ Kh8 28.Rxd2 Qxd2 29.Qe6 Rf8 30.Nf7+ Rxf7 31.Qxf7 h6 32.Rb1 Kh7 33.Rb8 mating. Now Black gets ample compensation for the lost Exchange. 26...Qxd2 27.Rxd2 Rxc4 28.exd6 exd6 29.Rxd6 Bxc3 30.Rd8 Kf8 31.Ra8, 1/2–1/2. Black

AASM Manual =========== (This is more of a set of notes than a true manual.) Alpha++ release! Required: {binary file, token specifier "mnemonics", source file} Command line format ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ qasm [-s[d,v][{l, p}], , -l , -h , -e ] -s dumps the symbol table to the specified file. the default is to dump in alphabetical order the -sd option dumps symbols in order of Definition the -sv option sorts symbols into ascending Value adding an 'l' will dump the Local labels too adding a 'p' will dump the literal Pools too -l dumps the list output to the specified file. the -ls option will list the symbol table too the -lk option will list the symbol table and insert a "KMD" identifier -h dumps ASCII hexadecimal to the specified file. -e dumps ELF to the specified file. omitting the filename (or substituting '-') directs to stdout. (Further options will be added later.) Output information ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Each pass attempts to define and refine label values. On each pass information is echoed indicating "Label changes": "defined" is the number of labels which were defined for the first time on that pass. "value changed" is the number of labels whose definition has been altered on that pass; this is normally due to the object code changing size as offsets are adjusted. "read while undefined" indicates references to labels which have not yet had any definition. Iteration continues until all these values are zero - at which time a final pass generates code - or the assembler becomes fed up, which implies that the source code is not sensible. In this case labels still undefined are reported. Errors are reported as they are determined and, if a pass contains errors, assembly will be aborted at the end of the pass. Source file input format ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Standard assembly language: optional label followed by a mnemonic - with addressing mode(s) as required - followed by an optional comment. Any field may be omitted where sensible. No restrictions on mnemonic/label formatting (1st column, etc.) Mnemonics (including directives) are case insensitive. Labels are case sensitive. Lines are terminated by or . A line is truncated to a limit of 255 characters. (Alterable in source file.) Directives supported are: INCLUDE Include file as part of source GET Synonym for "INCLUDE" EQU Equate EXPORT , , ... Marks labels for export (for expansion) If = "all", all labels are exported ARM Assemble as 32-bit ARM code (default) (Automatically aligns to word boundary) THUMB Assemble as 16-bit Thumb code ARCHITECTURE Set instruction set architecture (default "ALL") {v3, v3M, v4, v4xM, v4T, v4TxM, v5, v5xM, v5T, v5TxM, v5TE, v5TExP, all, any} (last 2 are synonyms) ARCH Synonym for ARCHITECTURE ORIGIN Origin (defaults to 00000000 at start) ORG Synonym for ORIGIN ENTRY Mark code entry point ALIGN , ]] Increment origin to next multiple of [[Will default to 4-byte alignment Note: any label will be at the first filled address if filling the gap, but the aligned address if not. DEFS [, ] Define space - space uninitialised if byte omitted DEFB , , ... Define byte DEFB "string", ... may mix with above - possible delimiters " ' ` / Accepts C-style escape codes { \0 \" \' \? \\ \a \b \f \n \r \t \v } DEFH , , ... Define 16-bit word (also strings as DEFB) DEFW , , ... Define 32-bit word (also strings as DEFB) DCB Synonym for DEFB DCW Synonym for DEFH DCD Synonym for DEFW LITERAL Dump any outstanding literal constants Owing to the automatic alignment and user invisibility of literals it is inadvisable to label a LITERAL directive. LITERALS Synonym for LITERAL POOL Synonym for LITERAL LTORG Synonym for LITERAL RN Alias a register name. Note: must precede alias use in assembly CN Alias a coprocessor register name. Note: must precede alias use in assembly Note: a value used in (e.g.) DEFB is truncated to the appropriate least significant bits -without- a warning message being generated. Label rules ~~~~~~~~~~~ Labels are strings of alphanumerics, beginning with an alphabetic character. '_' is regarded as alphabetic. They are case sensitive. A label can be any length, but only the first 31 characters are stored. (This limit can be changed in the source file.) Longer labels are still likely to be distinguished by their hashes. Local labels may be defined as decimal numbers. The same label may be defined repeatedly, if desired. A local label is referenced using a '%' prefix, thus: 999 beq %b111 The reference may be specified as "%b##" (back) which searches for the nearest matching preceding definition in the assembly process, "%f##" (forward) which searches for the nearest matching succeeding definition or "%##" which searches backwards then forwards if not found. Both directions of search begin with the label on the current line, if any. Expression rules ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ An operand may be one of: . current location label % local label decimal number : binary number ???? 0b binary number @ octal number $ hexadecimal number & hexadecimal number 0x hexadecimal number Values are 32 bit, two's complement. Any number may contain an arbitrary number of '_' characters. These are intended to be available as field separators (e.g. in long binary numbers) and are ignored by the assembler. A monadic operator may be one of: Symbols Operation + Plus - Negative (2's complement) ~ NOT (1's complement) | log (i.e. the bit number of the MS '1' or -1 for 0) Only one monadic operator is allowed per element. A diadic operator may be one of: Symbols Operation Precedence << LSL SHL Left shift 6 (High) >> LSR SHR Right shift 6 AND Logical AND 5 | OR Logical OR 4 ^ EOR XOR Logical XOR 4 * Multiply 3 / DIV DIV 3 \ MOD MOD 3 + Add 2 - Subtract 2 (Low) Parentheses may be used to force priority. Mnemonics ~~~~~~~~~ Standard ARM mnemonics and syntax are supported, with the following additions: NOP ARM no-operation (MOV R0, R0) UNDEF Undefined instruction (?C000010) UNDEFINED as above ADR Rd, addr Produce an ADD/SUB Rd, PC, ## so that Rd becomes addr Exactly one instruction is generated. ADRL Rd, addr Produce a set of operations which sets up Rd by adding or subtracting from the PC. From one to four instructions may be generated. ADRn Rd, addr Produce a set of operations which sets Rd to addr, using exactly n instructions LDR/STR Rd, addr PC-relative addressing mode LDR Rd, =## MOV/MVN Rd, ## if possible, otherwise plant a PC-relative load to a literal constant. The literals will be dumped at the end of the file, or earlier with a LITERAL directive. LDRH will generate half word literals. Literals will be aliased to earlier constants of the same value, where possible. Literal pools are aligned automatically, as deemed necessary by the assembler, and terminate on word alignment. ADDX Rd, Rn, #nn A number of `extended' immediate operations which are synthesized from real operations but allow arbitrary sized immediate fields. From one to four instructions may be generated; some substitution (e.g. SUB for ADD) will be attempted if it shortens the sequence. Operations supported are {MOVX, ADDX, ADCX, SUBX, SBCX, RSBX, RSCX, ANDX, BICX, ORRX, EORX}. Conditional operation and flag setting is optional; NOTE that an attempt to set the C or V FLAG will result in an UNDEFINED state as predicting where an overflow may occur is not possible and the flags can only be set on the last instruction in the sequence. These sequences may provide a convenient means of performing some operations but should be used with caution. An advantage of this mechanism over "LDR =" is that the data is fetched from the code stream rather than as data; thus the constants are more easily integrated with instruction caches, etc. Notes for Thumb: NOP is MOV R8, R8 because MOV R0, R0 would affect the flags. Only ADR (and ADR1) are currently supported. Register names ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Register names are case insensitive. The following register names are predefined: Name Name Name Value r0 a1 0 r1 a2 1 r2 a3 2 r3 a4 3 r4 v1 4 r5 v2 5 r6 v3 6 r7 v4 7 r8 v5 8 r9 v6 sb 9 r10 v7 sl 10 r11 fp 11 r12 ip 12 r13 sp 13 r14 lr 14 r15 pc 15 Other aliases (also case insensitive) may be created with the "RN" directive, e.g. acc rn r0 Coprocessor names are treated similarly. Predefined aliases are "C?" and "CR?" where '?' is a decimal number 0-15. The relevant directive is "CN". Status register names are not aliasable. Coprocessor names ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Predefined coprocessor names are "P?" or "CP?" where '?' is a decimal number 0-15. They are case insensitive. Aliases may be defined with the "CP" directive. Non-literal translation ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Some instructions will be modified, if possible, if they cannot be assembled as specified. For example: "ADD R1, R2, #-1" becomes "SUB R1, R2, #1". There are two such sets of pairs: ADD/SUB and CMP/CMP Operand negated AND/BIC, ADC/SBC and MOV/MVN Operand inverted As mentioned above, instructions of the form "LDR Rd, =###" will be translated to MOV or MVN if the immediate field will fit in the instruction. Caveats ~~~~~~~ If using literal pools (i.e. the LDR R0, =&12345678 syntax) it is advisable to finish the code file with a "LITERAL

Colin Cameron, Dept. of Economics, Univ. of Calif. - Davis This September 1999 help sheet gives information Text files and non-text files. File formats. Methods to input data from a range of sources 1. Type data into an existing Worksheet 2. Read in data from an existing worksheet or workbook 3. Copy data from an existing worksheet 4. Read in data from an existing comma-separated values file 5. Read in data from an existing text file 6. Read in data from files in other formats Saving files It can be surprisingly difficult to input data from sources other than an Excel workbook from versions of Excel the same as or earlier than the version you are using. TEXT FILES AND NON-TEXT FILES There are many ways to represent data on a computer. The essential divide is between text files and non-text files. Text files can be directly read using a text editor such as Notepad in Microsoft Windows. These files often have extension .txt but can often have other extensions (a common one we will use is .csv). Example: For the text file carsdata.txt Notepad yields Non-text files cannot be meaningfully read using a text editor such as Notepad. Then one obtains non-text characters that appear as, for example, @Z xxxxxxx Example: For the non-text file carsdata.xls (an Excel file) Notepad yields Instead non-text files can only be read using special software. In this example an Excel file can be meaningfully read using the Excel program. FILE FORMATS The most common data formats used to store data in files that can be read data into Excel are: Existing Excel workbook or worksheet with extension .xls This is easily read into Excel, just like reading a Word file with extension .doc using MS Word. Existing Excel workbook or worksheet with extension .xlsx The extension .xlsx mean that the file is in Excel 2007 format. This may not be recognized by earlier versions of Excel such as Excel 97 or Excel 2003. Comma-separated values text file with extension .csv This is easily read into Excel. Furthermore, because this is a text file it can be read by many other programs. Text file, often with extension .txt or extension .asc This can be read into Excel but information about the formatting of the data needs to be provided, as explained below. METHODS TO INPUT DATA Common ways to input data into Excel are: Type in data into a new Excel worksheet. Read in data from an existing Excel workbook. Copy data from an existing Excel worksheet. Read in data from an existing comma-separated values text file. Read in data from and existing text file (possibly downloaded from the internet) and convert the file to an Excel worksheet. Read in data from other format files if Excel recognizes this format. 1. TYPE IN DATA INTO A NEW EXCEL WORKSHEET Open Excel, for example from Windows Start Menu | Programs. This immediately puts you into a new Excel worksheet, or prompts you to ask for a new Excel worksheet. Consider entry of the following data on the number of cars in a household (first column) and the number of persons in the household (second column). 1 1 2 2 2 3 2 4 3 5 Type the data into cells A1:A5 and cells B1:B5. (Click on cell A1 and enter 1 and then enter, then 2 and enter ....) Then give headers to the two columns. Put cursor in cell A1 and right-click and select Insert and then select Entire Row. Then in the new blank cell A1 type CARS and in the new blank cell A2 type HH SIZE. Now headers (CARS and HH SIZE) are in row 1 and data are in rows 2 to 6. The final data are: Next give the worksheet a name. Go to the sheet tab at the bottom, which may be called Sheet 1, right-click and select Rename and give the worksheet a name. Finally save the workbook by using Office Button and Save As if a new workbook or Office Button and Save if saving an existing workbook. If typing in a lot of data it is obviously best to save the workbook a number of times before typing is finished. 2. READ IN DATA FROM AN EXISTING EXCEL WORKBOOK OR WORKSHEET This is the easiest, if you have approriate version(s) of Excel. Open Excel, for example from Start Menu | Programs. Left-click the Office Button, select Open and give the filename or browse for the file you want to input. Usually the filename will have extension .xls or .xlsx Excel 2007 should read all previous versions of Excel files, though not vice-versa. For example, read in the file carsdata.xls (which is an Excel 97-2003 workbook). 3. COPY DATA FROM AN EXISTING EXCEL WORKSHEET Suppose we are already in an existing worksheet within an existing workbook. Right click on the Worksheet Tab at the bottom. This yields the Move or Copy dialog box If copy is to the existing workbook (the default) then most often one chooses the (move to end) option in Before Sheet. If copy is to a new workbook then choose the (new book) option in to book and type in the name of the new book. In either case select the Create a Copy option. Give the new worksheet an appropriate name by going to the sheet tab at the bottom, right-click and select rename and give the worksheet a name. 4. READ IN DATA FROM A COMMA-SEPARATED VALUES FILE A comma-separated values file is a text file where each row is a spreadsheet row and each entry, separated by a comma, is a column entry for that row. The first row provides names for the columns of the spreadsheet. These files are given extension .csv. Excel automatically reads in files with extension .csv Many other programs are able to read in data a .csv file, but not data in an .xls file. It is a standard format for transferring data across different programs. For example the file carsdata.csv is a text file with the following entries Related text files include tab-delimited text and space-delimited formatted text. 5. READ IN DATA FROM AN EXISTING TEXT FILE 5a. Obtain text file with data from the internet Skip this step if you already have the data file carsdata.txt on your computer. In your web browser click on file carsdata.txt The web browser displays 1. 1. 2. 2. 2. 3. 2. 4. 3. 5. Choose File / Save As in your browser to save the data as carsdata.txt in directory of your choosing, e.g. in c:/Temp 5b. Enter the text file with data into Excel Now open Excel and from the Office Button choose Open At the bottom of the Open dialog box choose the option Files of type | All Files (*.*) and navigate to highlight file c:/Temp/carsdata.txt and click Open. This yields the Text Import Wizard The challenge is to places the first and second numbers into separate columns, rather than combined into one column. In text import import wizard Choose Delimited if the data are delimited and Fixed width if the data are fixed width. In this example either option can be chosen. Set the Start import at row to the first row that has data, skipping any preceding text such as explanation of the data. In this example there is now preceding text, so Start import at row 1. So Step 1: choose Delimited and Start Import at Row 1 and hit Next. This yields Step 2. The default Delimiter is Tab. Change this to Space. Then check that the Data preview has correctly split up the data, as is the case below. Hit next. This yields step 3. In this case leave the column data format as general. Hit Finish. This should give you an Excel worksheet with 2 columns and 5 rows in cells A1

Eldest son of William Cavendish, the 3rd Duke (1698–1755), he was elected to the House of Commons in 1741 and 1747, and in 1751 he moved to the House of Lords, as Lord Cavendish of Hardwick, in his father’s barony. After becoming lord lieutenant and governor-general of Ireland (1754), he succeeded to the dukedom (1755); and the following year he agreed to become nominal prime minister. William Pitt had refused to serve in the ministry of the Duke of Newcastle, and the great Whig families balked at Pitt himself becoming prime minister. Thus, Devonshire was summoned to the post, while Pitt became the ministry’s real authority as secretary of state to manage the war. When Pitt reconciled with Newcastle the following year, Devonshire, without having made much of a mark on events, resigned and became lord chamberlain of the household, a post he held until 1762.

Twenty20 Cup North 2011 will be a very competitive group. Our top recommended bookmakers for Twenty20 Cup North betting 2011 £25 Free Bet£40 Free Bet£150 Free Bet £25 Free Bet£50 Free Bet £35 Free Bet£50 Free Bet The sole reason that Twenty20 Cup North 2011 is one of the more difficult Cricket Betting markets is because so many of the counties that are good in County Championship cricket will play in this section. Twenty20 Cup North Betting Favourites There are two clear Twenty20 Cup North betting favourites in this Sports Betting field. Durham and Nottinghamshire have shared the County Championship over the last three seasons and have two of the best balanced squads in England. Durham are one of the Twenty20 Cup North betting favourites because they have the best pace attack in the country. The likes of Graham Onions, Liam Plunkett and Steve Harmison are all contracted to Durham for Twenty20.Nottinghamshire are one of the Twenty20 Cup North betting favourites in Twenty20 Cricket Betting because they have two key England bowlers in their squad. Graeme Swann and Stuart Broad should play big roles in the Notts side in Twenty20 this season. Outsiders in Twenty20 Cup North Betting There is a large group of counties who will all consider themselves outsiders in Twenty20 Cup North betting. Yorkshire, Lancashire, Leicestershire and Warwickshire will all be pushing for the top two spots. Leicestershire are probably the biggest outsiders in Twenty20 Cup North betting because they cannot boast as good a squad as other counties in the section. However, they have experience of winning this tournament before and will want that feeling of success back.Warwickshire could attract a lot of attention because they have some quality England players to call in if they are available for selection. Ian Bell is one of the best batsmen in the country and he will be playing in the top order for Warwickshire in Twenty20 Cup North. Chasing Pack in Twenty20 Cup North Betting Northamptonshire, Derbyshire and Worcestershire will all make up the chasing pack in Twenty20 Cup North betting. On paper, not one of these sides has a squad strong enough to contend with the main rivals for the title this season.The main weakness of these three counties is inconsistency and this has held them back in the past few season. Northants, Derbyshire and Worcestershire

Even though the land and climate in both countries are very different, the weather-conscious Irish farmer has, for example, much in common with, say, a fellow farmer in Greece. For thousands of years before Jean Byrne, or Martin King, came on the television each night to give us scientific forecasts, people looked to the sky, plants, and animals for indications of what the morrow would bring. Indeed, there’s a striking similarity in the signs on which amateur meteorologists of old, around the world, based their predictions. This is borne out by retired UCC classics lecturer, Dr Patrick Cronin, in a newly-published study spanning 3,000 years. The scholarly tome sets out the attempts made by the Greeks to predict weather change by naked-eye observation of signs from the sky, unaided by scientific meteorology. Knowledge of weather lore gained while growing up on a farm in Sliabh Luachra, close to the Cork/Kerry border, was fundamental in Dr Cronin’s later study of how the Greeks went about it. Much of his seminal knowledge was gleaned from his father while they saved hay or worked in the bog together, or while observing the fire on the hearth with his mother. This is acknowledged in the book’s dedication, which reads: ‘To the memory of my father, who taught me to read the wind.’ In a foreword, TCD Emeritus Professor George Huxley describes Dr Cronin as a scholar by vocation and a countryman at heart. He has combined his boyhood insights with his knowledge of the Greek language. But his rural upbringing helped him in another way — while the greater part of his research was carried out at his desk and in academic libraries, he could easily identify with the old people he interviewed in the Greek countryside. It was from farmers, shepherds, and sailors that he learned a deal about Greek weather lore. His book contains a catalogue of 720 signs derived from clouds, comets, dew, frost, mist, moon, winds and many other natural phenomena. The crucial importance of the weather for agriculture is recognised in an ancient Greek proverb with a universal application — it is the seasons, not the soil, that bear crops. Most of the predictions in Ireland and Greece are based on observation of birds, animals, insects and fish, the sun and the moon. The Greeks, however, use far more signs from animals and the sky than we do, though some signs are common to both countries. One is that gulls fly in from the sea before a storm, often referred to by people in Cork, Kerry, Donegal and Tipperary. Another is that streaks of light beneath the sun are a sign of bad weather — found in the folk traditions of the Blasket islands, and other areas along the west coast. Dr Cronin grew up in a place with a lyrical name that would have been familiar to the great Gaelic poets, Eoghan Ruadh Ó Suilleabhain and Aogan Ó Rathaille, who hailed from the area. It’s called Magha an tSamhraidh (summer pasture), not far from the Paps Mountains. People in the area would look towards the Paps, and other mountains, for weather indications from the presence of cloud, clarity of the atmosphere and other observations. Low clouds on the mountains are seen as a sure sign of approaching rain. Other mountains mentioned by him include Clara and Muisire, in Co Cork, and Cnoc Firinne, near Ballingarry, in Co Limerick. Translated, Cnoc Firinne means hill of truth, believed to be so named because of the accurate weather indications it rendered farmers through the centuries. The sudden appearance of thousands of ants on a road in Ireland has always been regarded as a portent of rain. The ancient Greeks also used this weather sign. And Dr Cronin believes that faith placed in ants as weather prophets is justified. Ants, he says, have a high sensitivity to atmospheric change and can anticipate rain sooner than man. Another belief common to Ireland, Greece, and many other countries is that if swallows fly low it is a sign of rain. This sign is reliable, he remarks. Swallows are able to catch insects at high levels in fine weather, but when the atmosphere is very humid, just prior to rain, insects remain near ground level so that swallows descend in pursuit. Not all the old signs could be trusted, but people all over the world have benefited over millennia from the wisdom of weather lore. * Greek Popular Meteorology from Antiquity to the Present

999: Twenty-nine Original Tales of Horror and Suspense Back to Brett's Book Collection Back to Horror Edited by Al Sarantonio 999: Twenty-nine Original Tales of Horror and Suspense Comments: 999: Twenty-nine Original Tales of Horror and Suspense Edited By Al Sarantonio 999: Twenty-nine Original Tales of Horror and Suspense is a consistently solid collection of short stories, never published before being included in this book. More than one made best of collections in the year it was published. Al Sarrantonio set out to collect only high quality stories, and even had the rather lofty goal of starting another upsurge in horror sales. While he didn’t necessarily succeed at all he set out to do, this IS an extremely solid collection that belongs on the shelf of all serious horror fans. Joe Lansdale’s “Mad Dog Summer” is the best of a very impressive lot, and I also greatly enjoyed William Peter Blatty’s short novel Elsewhere. Oddly enough, I wasn’t as impressed with several stories by authors who I am a fan of, including TED Klein’s “Growing Things” and Thomas Ligotti’s “The Shadow, The Darkness”, though I’m sure a lot of you will disagree with me as to the quality of those and other tales in the list below. "Amerikanski Dead at the Moscow Morgue" By Kim Newman Rating: 7/10 Quote: "It was important, apparently, that the spike entirely transfix the skull and break ground, binding the dead to the earth, allowing the last of the spirit to leave the carcass." Comments: What do Rasputin’s skull, dead tourists come back to life, and a prominent member of the Soviet government have to do with one another in an apocalyptic future? One whole hell of a lot apparently! "The Ruins of Contracoeur" By Joyce Carol Oates Rating: 8/10 Quote: "I can't believe it! I know it must be true." Comments: The Matheson family, especially the children, are paying for past crimes of their family. These crimes only become clear after a long, lonely, somehow OFF summer at rural Cross Hill, ancestral home of the Mathesons. "The Owl and the Pussycat" By Thomas M. Disch Rating: 7/10 Quote: "But you know he didn't kill Mrs. Fairfield." Comments: At first I didn't like this one much, but the ending is a nice little shocker. "The Road Virus Heads North" By Stephen King Rating: 8/10 Quote: "Survivors and visitors." Comments: Famous horror author Richard Kinnell quickly enough comes to regret buying a painting with certain, shall we say, DISTURBING properties. "Keepsakes and Treasures: A Love Story" By Neil Gaiman Rating: 9/10 Quote: "Not my cup of tea." Comments: The narrator is one cold-hearted bastard...and that's being nice! "Growing Things" By T. E. D. Klein Rating: 5/10 Quote: "Before it was just one bulge." Comments: I've heard many good things about Klein, but I didn't particularly care for this one. The reader is forced to jump to too many conclusions for this house to be the one which appears in the home improvement magazines. "Good Friday" By F. Paul Wilson Rating: 7/10 Quote: "It's too late for me, but not for you." Comments: I've heard of cheerleaders becoming vampire hunters, but nuns? I like it. "Excerpts from the Records of the New Zodiac and the Diaries of Henry Wilson Fairfax" By Chet Williamson Rating: 9/10 Quote: "...it has been easy to buy them out and swallow them up in their weakened condition." Comments: Brother Capricorn’s New Zodiac Club isn’t showing the civility he had desired in his club members. And to make matters worse, their eating habits are a bit peculiar as well... "An Exaltation of Termagants" By Eric Van Lustbader Rating: 7/10 Quote: "But I was so cruel to you." Comments: William gets a chance to look over his life from an unlikely source. "Itinerary" By Tim Powers Rating: 5/10 Quote: "Is Doug Olney there?...He just left." Comments: I didn’t really get this one. It apparently involves a man trying to warn himself of impending disaster through a phone call. "Catfish Gal Blues" By Nancy A. Collins Rating: 8/10 Quote: "Lit'l Fishie--is that you?" Comments: Hop Armstrong has a way with the ladies, even non-human ladies. He should've made sure she didn't have a boyfriend first though. "The Entertainment" By Ramsey Campbell Rating: 6/10 Quote: "You've been caught, you have to play. If you don't it won't be fair." Comments: Tom Shone (Thompson) arrives in town too late to find a normal hotel. Instead he finds something out of a nightmare... "ICU" By Edward Lee Rating: 8/10 Quote: "What the hell kind of hospital is this!" Comments: Frankie Paone pays for his sins through an unlikely source. "The Grave" By P. D. Cacek Rating: 6/10 Quote: "My Precious One." Comments: Elizabeth is bound and determined to be a good mother, unlike her own. But it's going to take time and probably more than one body... "The Shadow, The Darkness" By Thomas Ligotti Rating: 5/10 Quote: "In other words, I became aware of what in reality was activating my body." Comments: This one is VERY Lovecraftian in tone and outlook, something I normally enjoy. In other words, mere human beings do not stand a chance against the cosmic forces arrayed against us, and there is no use trying. However, I just didn't like the actual story very much. "Knocking" By Rick Hautala Rating: 5/10 Quote: "Let...me...out!" Comments: This story of a human mind gone wrong wasn't my cup of tea. "Rio Grande Gothic" By David Morrell Rating: 8/10 Quote: "I hate him." Comments: Officer Romero can't shake the feeling that things aren't quite right with the Parsons brothers. He's the only one who suspects them, and his efforts uncover a dark secret. "Des Saucisses, Sans Doute" By Peter Schneider Rating: 4/10 Quote: "My God! Did I do that?" Comments: This was a shorter than short story, and it wasn't very good. "Angie" By Ed Gorman Rating: 7/10 Quote: "You know if there's a river around here somewhere?" Comments: Angie at first looks like a sort of heroine, but this IS a horror story, after all. "The Ropy Thing" By Al Sarrantonio Rating: 6/10 Quote: "I don't love you anymore." Comments: If you believe in something hard enough, it just might come true. "The Tree Is My Hat" By Gene Wolfe Rating: 5/10 Quote: "The tree is my hat." Comments: Baden is sent to the end of the earth, an island in the Pacific, where he sees and hears strange things. "Styx and Bones" By Edward Bryant Rating: 6/10 Quote: "Danny, I'll love you forever. I couldn't let her injure you." Comments: Danny is living proof, if painful proof, that you had better not get caught cheating. "Hemophage" By Steven Spruill Rating: 4/10 Quote: "You got what you came for." Comments: I guess I need to read the other novels the characters in this story appear in, because without those novels, this story didn't make much sense. "The Book of Irrational Numbers" By Michael Marshall Smith Rating: 7/10 Quote: "There's no way back. It's tainted." Comments: A serial killer chooses his victims based on the digital root of their age. He likes 17 year olds... "Mad Dog Summer" By Joe R. Lansdale Rating: 10/10 Quote: "We thought you were our friend." Comments: This excellent novella from Joe Lansdale had me thinking equal parts To Kill A Mockingbird, Where the Red Fern Grows, and straight horror. I cannot recommend this one highly enough. “The Theater” By Bentley Little Rating: 7/10 Quote: “You didn’t go up there, did you?” Comments: The theater at the tops of a set of stairs behind a locked door holds some horrifying secrets, secrets which Putnam learns only too well. “Rehearsals” By Thomas F. Monteleone Rating: 8/10 Quote: “Winners and Losers—and his son was definitely in the second group.” Comments: Dominic Kazan gets a chance to go back and stand up to his father, improving his current life many times over in the process. Al Sarrantonio says this reminds him of a Twilight Zone episode, and I have to very much agree. “Darkness” By Dennis L. McKiernan Rating: 9/10 Quote: “My God, it’s behind me!” Comments: Harlow Winton has gone from an orphan to a wealthy man overnight. His great-uncle left everything to him...including his peculiar house where SOMETHING lurked in the darkness. I like the way McKiernan keeps the monster vague. My imagination runs wild when I read a story like this. “Elsewhere” By William Peter Blatty Rating: 9/10 Quote: “You’re not Gabriel Case!” Comments: The author of The Exorcist

Croner gains honor Published on Decatur Daily Democrat (http://www.decaturdailydemocrat.com) Home > Croner gains honor Croner gains honor By editor Created 10/28/2010 - 8:36am By J Swygart tt--Croner - principal of year.jpg [1] Scot Croner... ‘All progress is the result of change’ Scot Croner, principal at Bellmont High School since 2008, has been named by the Indiana Association of School Principals as its District 3 High School Principal of the Year for 2010. Croner will receive official recognition of the award during the association's annual fall conference on Nov. 21 in Indianapolis. District 3 of the IASP includes Adams, Allen, DeKalb, Huntington, LaGrange, Noble, Stueben, Wabash, Wells and Whitley counties. High school prinicipals of the year are elected by their peers, according to an association press release. Once principal is honored from each of the state's 12 districts. A statewide principal of the year winner will be announced at the award celebration. "Obviously I'm very honored," Croner said of his upcoming award. "It's humbling that your colleagues would recommend you for that type of award." Croner, now in his third year at BHS, has been the driving force behind the transformation of Bellmont High School into an Early College High School, where students simultaneously earn a high school diploma and up to two years of college credit towards a bachelor's degree. "I am a firm believer that although not all change is progress, all progress is the result of change," Croner wrote in his nominating petition. "We as educators are challenged to make significant improvements in our methods of teaching and utilize best practices to improve student achievement. I have worked with the staff at BHS and implemented such practices into our professional learning community. ... We have been named an emerging Early College High School and are on our way to receiving full ECHS status." The BHS principal said the shift to an early college high school model, the awarding of physical education credits through athletics and a new credit by examination policy "are among the things we're doing here at Bellmont of which I'm most proud." He was also quick to credit the teaching and support staff at BHS, as well as the North Adams administrative team, for their support of endeavors which he has spearheaded. "All the positive things happening at Bellmont High School are a testament to the excellent staff I have to work with," Croner said. In a letter to the IASP in support of Croner's bid for principal of the year honors, North Adams Superintendent of School Wylie Sirk said Croner has "demonstrated exemplary leadership skills as he facilitates the development, articulation, implementation and stewardship of a clear vision of learning that is shared and supported by stakeholders." Sirk said the BHS principal demonstrates "fairness, integrity and promotes high ideals ... and encourages understanding and the welfare of students and staff." Bellmont biology teacher Rebecca Dumbaugh called Croner a "dedicated, inspiring educational leader who has made a tremendous impact on the Bellmont High School/North Adams school district in his short time here." Croner is a graduate of North Manchester High School, where he was a member of the varsity basketball team. He played college basketball at Manchester College while earning his bachelor's degree in mathematics. Croner earned his master's degree in educational administration from Purdue University in 2005, and is working toward his Ph.D. in educational leadership, also at Purdue. After starting his teaching career as a math teacher with the Lafayette School Corporation, Croner spent two years as the dean of students at Fairfield Community Schools in Goshen before taking a vice principal's job at Delta High School in Delaware County. He was hired in the summer of 2008 as the BHS principal.

Adelaide v Melbourne (AAMI Stadium) The Crows are struggling, no matter how much Neil Craig and the match committee try to hide from it, the cold hard facts are there. Adelaide have lost three of their past four, were lucky to get away with the points against the Magpies a fortnight ago on their own home ground and surrendered a five-goal lead to the Bulldogs yesterday. The Demons returned to their best today at the G, and represent the great white hope of Victorian football. On their day and when they are playing as a team are as good as anyone in the competition. Injuries to Rivers and Bate could prove costly, but with Pickett to return from a hamstring injury and Robertson and Davey to be better for the run today, the Dees represent a big danger. Sydney v Western Bulldogs (SCG) The Swans were disappointing at Skilled Stadium yesterday and blew a golden opportunity to cement a spot in the top four, was it a minor abberation, we'lll soon see. The Doggies were extremely impressive yesterday against the Crows and like the Dees are capable of knocking any side off if they back their running brand of football. Collingwood v St Kilda (MCG) The Pies got out of jail against Port at AAMI on Friday night, while the Saints were bitterly disappointing in their 58-point drubbing at the hands of Fremantle. The Saints clearly lack pace through the midfield and have a rising injury toll and doubts over whether or not Aaron Hamill will return. Even if he does you would expect him to struggle given the amount of football he has missed. Hard to pick a winner in this one, with neither side being in particularly good form in recent weeks. 43 Vote subscribe to this blog follow this blog on Orble start your own blog [ Link ] Posted By: TonyK - Category: No Category Related Posts: Relate This Post [ Previous - Brownlow Medal Watch: Round 20 ] [ Next - AFL Ladder ] Add A Comment To create a fully formatted comment please click here.CLICK HERE TO LOGIN | CLICK HERE TO REGISTER Name or Orble Tag Home Page (optional) Comments --- Size --- 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 --- Color --- Aqua Black Blue Fuchsia Gray Green Lime Maroon Navy Olive Purple Red Silver Teal White Yellow Notify me of replies Yes No Your Email Address (optional)(required for reply notification) Submit More Posts August 2010 1 Posts May 2010 73 Posts April 2010 61 Posts Older Posts 3205 Posts dating from August 2006 Email Subscription Receive e-mail notifications of new posts on this blog: 0 [ View Blog Summary ] [ Create A New Post ] [ Add A Comment ] Moderated by TonyK[ take over this inactive blog ] Orble Orble Homepage Start an Orble Blog Popular Orble Australian Rules Posts The new season is almost here2012 TSL Fixture out soonFevola set to turn sights to punting Popular Orble Sport Posts Welcome back...Bubble teams conference by conferenceNBA Power Rankings Feb 29thNBA Weekly Awards- Feb 29thNanoFil knot trumps King SlingChanging my mind on Dwight HowardHow to make a rope lure for garFormer Tulane football coach Bob Toledo would help improve any struggling offense in the countryArsenal 5-2 SpursDoes Anyone watch All Star Games?

Categories: Criminal Justice, From the Executive Director Print this page by Hector Villagra August 1, 2011 A few days after the end of the Pelican Bay hunger strike, I was interviewed on KCRW’s “Which Way, LA?” in the same segment as spokespeople from California Prison Health Services and the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. The CDCR, through Undersecretary of Operations Scott Kernan, tried to defend its reckless and indiscriminate use of solitary confinement; it succeeded only in giving an exhibition in government speak. “Which Way, LA?” host Warren Olney asked Kernan if Pelican Bay prisoners in solitary confinement do in fact “spend at least 22 and a half hours every day in windowless, concrete cells, the remaining time alone in concrete exercise yards.” Parsing Kernan’s answer should have yielded, at some point, either a yes or no. Kernan started by stating that “solitary confinement is a word that’s used . . . loosely . . . ” But instead of explaining how he thought the word has been misapplied to Pelican Bay, he just reverted to the talking point that the guys in “the hole” are the so-called worst of the worst. “[t]hese inmates again are the most dangerous gang leaders that we have in the state of California and, let the truth be told, in the nation. So these guys are really truly the most dangerous offenders. So we have definitely—Pelican Bay was built to house the worst of the worst. And it is meant to control their movements considerably. . . . So let’s just be very, very clear that these are bad guys, and so we keep them very controlled. But it is not solitary confinement, nor is it torturous behavior as described by some. Ok, so these guys are the most dangerous, the worst of the worst. But are they in fact kept in windowless, concrete cells for 22 and a half hours a day? A couple minutes later, when Kernan suggested that there was no overcrowding at Pelican Bay because the inmates are housed in single cells, Olney pressed the question one more time: “Well, are those single cells, in fact, windowless concrete cells, and are they required to stay there 22 and a half hours a day?” Kernan responded: “Um, well, they have programming, I don’t know if I would say 22 hours, 22 and a half hours a day, but, probably very close to that.” This is a sizeable number of words to say, in effect, “yes.” What could be the point of Kernan’s filibustering other than to avoid the real questions: Does it benefit public safety to house inmates in a concrete box? How do people react to extreme isolation? Is it inhumane to isolate a person in a windowless concrete cell for 22.5 hours a day for months, years, or even decades? Mr. Kernan elected to end his interview rather than attempt to answer. Hector Villagra is the Executive Director of the ACLU/SC. Full transcript of Mr. Kernan’s radio interview: Warren Olney: “Scott Kernan is Undersecretary of the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, welcome back to our program. I understand that you helped to resolve some of these issues. Which of those that I listed were in fact dealt with, and did the state make some concessions?” Scott Kernan: “I don’t know that I would say concessions; you know, the inmates had a list of demands, we took a look at them, and I think that at the end of the day we realized that as you just described a watch cap in inclement weather and a wall calendar didn’t pose significant security concerns and so those changes were made. We’re also looking at a number of things including the very complicated gang validation process. I’d also just point out to you that the inmates at Pelican Bay that started this are there because of their behavior. These are the gang leaders that are running the various prison gangs and as such are the scourge of society in our prisons. A lot of violence associated with it. So anyway we did evaluate it and we did make some changes to our policy and we’re going to look at the other changes that the inmates desire moving forward.” KCRW: “What about at the other prisons?” Scott Kernan: “Well really it was, again, generated by inmates at Pelican Bay. So the central issues were related to them and it really is a illustration of the power that these guys represent over other offenders. For at the height of it, six thousand, sixty-five hundred or so, at 13 prisons, although that dissipated very quickly, and really the core hunger strikers were probably under a hundred at Pelican Bay.” KCRW: “It’s been reported that at Pelican Bay many prisoners are in solitary confinement, and then when they are they spend at least 22 and a half hours every day in windowless, concrete cells, the remaining time alone in concrete exercise yards, are those things true?” Scott Kernan: “The solitary confinement is a word that’s used, I guess, loosely, a little bit. These inmates again are the most dangerous gang leaders that we have in the state of California and, let the truth be told, in the nation. These guys are running the Mexican mafia, the Nuestra Familia, the Black Guerilla family, the Aryan Brotherhood.” So these guys are really truly the most dangerous offenders. So we have definitely—Pelican Bay was built to house the worst of the worst. And it is meant to control their movements considerably. I mean these inmates are not there at Pelican Bay for just not obeying simple rules. They’re in there for murdering inmates, and for you know following through with their criminal enterprises on the street. So let’s just be very, very clear that these are bad guys, and so we keep them very controlled. But it is not solitary confinement, nor is it torturous behavior as described by some.” KCRW: “There’s a panel of federal judges that have said the conditions within the prisons violate the constitutional ban on cruel and unusual punishment. Did they single out the kind of treatment that I described?” Scott Kernan: “No, not at all. The court decision that you described is overall overcrowding in the system, and the fact that Pelican Bay inmates are largely single cell because they’re so dangerous. They’re one of the few areas that we have very reduced overcrowding, while the courts ruled that overall the Department’s population is overcrowded leading to those constitutional violations; it had nothing to do with the SHU specifically at Pelican Bay or any of the other SHUs that we have in the state.” KCRW: “Well are those single cells, in fact, windowless concrete cells and are they required to stay there 22 and a half hours a day?” Scott Kernan: “Um, well, they have programming, I don’t know if I would say 22 hours, 22 and a half hours a day, but, probably very close to that. They get an hour a day of yard and showers and if they have to go to they can have visits and go to medical appointments and the like but it is, it is stark correctional environment for our most dangerous offenders.” KCRW: “Most dangerous as they are, there are those who say that conditions of that kind can produce panic attacks, depression, inability to concentrate, memory loss, aggression, self-mutilation, and various forms of psychosis. Is that true? And even if they are worst of the worst, is it appropriate to have those kinds of consequences?” Scott Kernan: “Interesting question. The federal courts have been in the Department of corrections and rehabilitations mental health process for a long time and none of the inmates that are involved in this hunger strike at SHU, we don’t allow mental health inmates to be there. So any inmate that had any kind of mental health concern would not be housed in the SHU at Pelican Bay.” KCRW: “Ok, so how long do you think it will take to resolve these other issues with what, you don’t want to call solitary confinement, and also with the question of gang validation which they complain as though I understand it that it takes so long that they’re then accused of being snitches when they get back into the general population or anywhere near it. I suppose if they’re confined to single cells they’re not really in the general population. What about those issues? Will that take you longer to resolve?” Scott Kernan: “It’s a little bit more complicated than that. What they’re referring to is about the debriefing process is that when an inmate wants to get out of SHU and wants to disassociate himself with the gangs he can do so and he has to go through a debriefing process. And in that debriefing process he must identify criminal behavior that he’s been involved in, and others. The SHU inmates are taking umbrage with that suggestion, that that’s not appropriate. We completely disagree and if you talk to the inmates that have went[sic] through the debriefing process and got out of the gang life, they will tell you that the debriefing process, we get it right a hundred percent of the time. So you know while we’re going to look at all these issues, we definitely think that there could be some changes to the validation and debriefing process but we’re going to do that with the input of not only the stakeholders of the inmate side but the stakeholders of the law enforcement and the gang investigators that work so hard every day to protect our streets and our prisons.” KCRW: “Okay, well thanks for being on our program.” Scott Kernan: “Thank you.” KCRW: “Scott Kernan, Undersecretary of the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, elected not to talk with any of our other guests.” Did you like this?

Mesh (Aries), Brish (Taurus), Mithun (Gemini), Karkat (Cancer), Simha (Leo), Kanya (Virgo), Tula (Libra), Brishchik (Scorpio), Dhanu (Sagittarius), Makar (Capricorn), Kumbha (Aquarius) and Meen (Pisces) are the 12 signs of the zodiac, and in Nepali they are called Rashi. In Nepal the moment a baby is born, the first thing they do is note down the exact time of birth. Then it is given to the astrologer, who according to the position of the different planets in the solar system at that precise moment prepares a Cheena (horoscope). Cheena is a rectangular chart, which indicates the degree of influence of the planets from the solar world on the people born to a particular Rashi. Besides highlighting the positive as well as negative aspects of one’s life comprising of achievements and failures, when it comes to facing difficult times the Nepalese people go to their astrologer with their Cheena for consultations and they act according to his recommendations. As an astrological document, Cheena, they say, pre-determines the entire course of an individual s life. For the Nepalese people on their birthday, the day is partly set aside to worship their planet that occupies a major position in their horoscope made according to the position of stars at the time of birth. It is also a day for them to please the other ones who are not placed in such a favourable position in their Cheena. As well on this day they also go through a number of rituals with their priest, who is offered grains and cash in order to stay in good health for the entire year. Astrologers are also consulted on various occasions like rice feeding, sacred thread and weddings. Tika in Dashain, Bhai Tika in Tihar

Contrast with North American histoplasmosis due to Histoplasma capsulatum Definition and forms of the disease Histoplasmosis due to Histoplasma duboisii is a mycotic infection primarily involving cutaneous, liver, lung, lymphatic, subcutaneous, and bony tissues. Skin and bone are the most frequently invaded sites [454]. The etiologic agent grows as a large yeast within giant cells. It may also present with small cells that are typical of those seen in histoplasmosis due to Histoplasma capsulatum. Nodular and ulcerative cutaneous and osteolytic lesions of bone that disseminate or remain localized are the primary clinical characteristics of histoplasmosis duboisii [11, 1185, 1186, 2101]. Prognosis and therapy Special resource: You may also want to refer to the Infectious Disease Society of America-Mycoses Study Group (IDSA-MSG) Practice Guidelines for this disease. It is available at the IDSA website. Isolated lesions may heal spontaneously. Surgical management is also an option. Disseminated disease has a grave prognosis, especially if the liver and spleen are involved. Amphotericin B, itraconazole or fluconazole are the drugs of choice [6, 36, 1690, 2302]. Histopathology Minimal cellular reaction to the fungi is noted with the exception of large numbers of giant cells (up to 80 μm) and macrophages. Neutrophils are usually present, especially during necrosis. The globose to ovoid, thick-walled yeasts are 7-15 μm (average 10 μm) in diameter and may form rudimentary pseudohyphae consisting of 4 or 5 cells. Large aggregates of yeast cells can be readily seen within giant cells and extracellularly following necrosis of the host tissue. Unlike Blastomyces dermatitidis, the blastoconidia are not attached to the parent cell by a broad neck. Laboratory Direct examination Clinical specimens such as tissue are examined in 10% KOH or calcofluor. The large yeast cells should be readily visible. Care must be taken to ensure that B. dermatitidis is not confused with the etiologic agent of histoplasmosis duboisii since they both occur in Africa. Isolation Inoculate the clinical material onto Inhibitory Mould Agar and/or yeast extract-phosphate agar and/or BHI agar with 10% sheep blood and/or a medium containing cycloheximide. Incubate cultures at 30°C and do not discard until 12 weeks. Laboratory confirmationConfirmation is necessary to ensure that the fungus is not a species of Chrysosporium or Sepedonium. This can be accomplished by the mould to yeast conversion, exoantigen technique or DNA probes. The etiologic agents of histoplasmosis capsulati and histoplasmosis duboisii are morphologically identical at 30°C and by DNA testing and exoantigen confirmation.

Long Branch, NY Tornado September 15, 1912 How Fatalities Occurred The one man instantly killed by the storm was Wilson Mathewson. He was a farmer, 53 years of age, and lived about three-quarters of a mile from Long Branch. With his wife, Mr. Mathewson had stepped from a car that had carried him from the city to Long Branch. They were both in the trolley station at Long Branch preparing to go to their home. When the wind caught the trolley station in its grasp, Mr. Mathewson was carried along with it. He was struck by the timbers. His body was caught in the grip of the tornado and carried a distance of about 100 feet from where the station had stood. He was found on a hillside and died before help reached him. GW Dopp of Fulton and Charles Chapman of Pitcher hill died in hospitals, the former in Genesee hospital and the latter at St. Joseph's. Mr. Dopp was employed as a motorman on the Syracuse, Lakeshore & Northern railroad. Dopp was in his car, which was at the Long Branch shop. When the storm came he was engaged in cleaning the front window in order that he might have a better view of the tracks when the trip was resumed. The car was close beside the waiting room, and when it crashed down the roof of the structure crashed into the car. Dopp had no chance to escape. His chest and skull were crushed. He was rushed to the city in an automobile and then taken to the Genesee hospital, where he died at 10:30 o'clock. Dopp was 22 years of age. Charles Chapman died at St. Joseph's hospital. Mr. Chapman ran a store at Pitcher Hill. The house and store were under the same roof. When the storm hit the building Mr. Chapman tried to get to a door to close it. As he did he was caught beneath the falling timbers of the house and crushed. His chest was crushed and he received internal injuries that proved fatal. Mr. Chapman was 45 year of age and is survived by his wife and several children. Syracuse Herald, Syracuse, NY 16 Sept 1912 TORNADO WRECKED SUMMER COTTAGES Sunday's Storm Played Havoc Along Seneca River Visitor is Badly Hurt Reuben Dudley said to have sustained fractured skull -- Union men offer their services to rebuild damaged buildings. Reuben Dudley, a visitor at one of the cottages on the Seneca Road is said to have suffered a fracture of the skull as a result of the tornado of Sunday. Reports of the damage to the cottages along the Seneca river today showed that the tornado played great havoc there and many persons escaped death and injury only by good fortune. Robert Prager [?] a cottager near Long Branch, had tied his motorboat to a tree near his cottage. The tornado uprooted the tree and [illegible] upon his cottage, carrying the motorboat ten feet in to the air where it hung by the rope. A cottage owned by Clarence Dunn was completely wrecked. This cottage was about 100 feet from another cottage where Mr. Dunn's family were huddled in fear as trees crashed down in the woods about hem. Trees along the river, leaning over, were hurled over in the opposite direction. Mr. Dudley was struck by an iron flag pole which broke into three pieces while he was trying to fasten a motorboat. Syracuse Herald, Syracuse, NY 18 Sept 1912 A fatal accident to Samuel Smith, who lived at Park and Center streets, is directly attributable to the tornado. He started to walk from Long Branch to this city, was hit by a trolley car near Pleasant Beach and when brought to St. Joseph's hospital several hours afterwards, it was found that his skull was fractured and his right arm had been severed at the shoulder. Syracuse Herald, Syracuse, NY 16 Sept 1912 North of Liverpool the storm first struck the farm of Bartholomew Smith, blowing the roof off the barn, blowing in windows of the house and whirling furniture about. HM Younglove's greenhouse across the road was blown to pieces. Mowing machines were carried [illegible] feet by the wind..... The home of Thomas E. Bennett was torn from its stone foundation and carried at least twenty feet. Mr. Bennett and his wife were unhurt. He tried to protect her from heavy beams and boards that fell about them and his shoulder was dislocated and his chest injured, though it is not thought seriously. Across from the Bennett's Lewis Keith's home was destroyed and the aged man and his family narrowly escaped death or serious injury. Several tons of coal in a woodshed were moved several feet, woodshed and all. At Pitcher Hill among the wrecked buildings are the house and barn of Mr. Chapman, the home of HU Wendell, home and barn of William Michaels, the schoolhouse and other buildings to say nothing of those that are unroofed or twisted. The farmers there are stared in the face by ruin. Mr. Chapman was the only one downstairs when his home was demolished and he was killed. His family and friends were upstairs and were only comparatively slightly hurt. He was crushed by heavy timbers under one corner of the store. He had evidently been trying to close the door when the wind tumbled the building down. Mrs. Chapman, who was slightly injured by falling bricks and timber was frantic. Girls upstairs were hurled down with the house and cut and bruised. After the building fell Miss Laura Hazelmyre, a guest at the house, climbed out and was seen standing on the roof covered with blood. She had saved the life of Edna Odin, a girl of 12, by throwing her out of the window though how or why she did it she does not know. Miss Hazelmyre was bruised and lacerated all over her body an a large piece was torn from one of her limbs but she was able to be up this morning and to limp along the road. Miss Hazlemyre is only about 18 years old and other in the house, excepting Mrs. Chapman and Mrs. Louis Haber, were all children. All were upstairs save Mr. Chapman. Mrs. Chapman crazed by the terrible disaster, managed to get out of the wreckage that was once a home an tried to find her husband. He was found crushed and died in St. Joseph's hospital. It was necessary to saw away several [illegible] before Mr. Chapman could be gotten out. Jacob Kronder, and employee of William Merrell at Pitcher Hill, is likely to die. He and Merrell were in the barn when the cyclone came. A beam struck Kronder and he went down. The wind seemed to pick up the barn and carry it and Mr. Merrell rode in the storm, praying to God as he was carried along. Wagons were driven pas him by the wind. In an instant it was over, but it seemed like years. Merrell's home and furniture and several barns were destroyed. John Wilkinson was between his house and barn when the cyclone struck him and he was knocked down by flying timbers. His injuries while not apparently serious may develop seriously. William Michaels's house, just south of the Chapman's place, is twisted out of shape and his barn is completely demolished. In the wreckage of the barn lies a white horse, killed by the falling timbers. The house outside does not look so bad but inside it is a wreck. It is twisted out of shape, plastering is fallen everywhere. Mr. Michaels was going from the barn to the house and the wind blew him against the house with great force... The homes of Earl Benz and Albert Jewell are in ruins. Fred Zwicki lost part of his house and all of his barn. A big wagon was hurled through his henhouse. Willard Davis lost the roof from his house and not a shred was left together of his barn. In his [illegible] are dead chickens by the score. His family of children were in the house but were not hurt. Mr. Davis was in a lot near his home and was knocked down by the wind, while flying timbers were carried over his head. He was not injured. The home of Sidney Price and his barn were wrecked. One cow as left in the cellar of the barn this morning and neighbors and friends tried to get it out. Another cow was hurt and spectators begged that it be killed. It is said that it would be. The front of Mr. Price's house was torn off and only two rooms were undamaged. From the front upstairs a little picture could be seen this morning evidently hurled from the wall and fastened by the wind across the end of a partition that it had torn off. continued >> Go to page 1, 2, 3, 4 Search for more information on the Long Branch Tornado and other disasters in the Historic Newspapers Collection.

Our thoughts and prayers are with all of those affected by Wednesday's storms. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ 10/20/10You may be familiar with our Dreamland brand, but you may not be familiar with our history. Dreamland was the dream of Tuscaloosa, Ala. , native John “Big Daddy” Bishop. Big Daddy opened Dreamland in 1958 off of highway 82 and Interstate 59 just south of Tuscaloosa in the Jerusalem Heights area. Since that time and to this day, the original store still serves up Dreamland’s legendary ribs. Our atmosphere gives you a down-home casual feel. At the original store you will find the décor inside is warm and dark; a dining room with a big bar, booths and a pot-bellied stove; beer signs hanging from the oak beams and Christmas lights that flash all year-round. The first store to open outside of Tuscaloosa was in Birmingham, Ala. , in 1993. The restaurant is nestled in the revitalized Southside neighborhood. Dreamland’s very presence on Southside has added to the area’s transformation and economic growth. In addition to the Tuscaloosa and Birmingham stores, you will now find six other locations in Alabama and Georgia. Our legendary ribs and sauce are on the menu at every location, but you’ll also find the menus have been expanded to include pulled pork, barbecue chicken, hickory smoked sausage, baked beans, coleslaw, potato salad and house salads. We also served our homemade banana pudding for dessert made with Bud’s Best vanilla wafers. If you’re not near a Dreamland restaurant, not to worry, because we offer most of our menu items online along with our original Dreamland merchandise. We deliver anywhere in the United States and some parts of Canada . We hope you stop by one of our restaurants soon. You never know who you’ll meet. Our motto still holds true today “Ain’t Nothing Like ‘Em Nowhere!” See you soon! ___________________________________________________________________________________________ 12/15/10 Heat Up Your WinterWe have seen our share of winter weather this season in the Southeast.

Read more Allen Zheng ..Materials Engineering at Monash gave me lots of hands-on experience across various areas and in different directions, for example polymers, metals, composites, superconductors and dye-sensitised solar cells." For Allen Zheng (2007), Materials Engineering at Monash was the first step on a long ladder. ‘It gave me an opportunity to work in the mining industry, and showed me the way to be an engineer,’ he says. Read more Kenneth Cheah ‘The culture was the most enjoyable part of my time in the department. It was a close-knit community with very much an open-door policy. The lecturers were easily accessible and always willing to discuss their research interests and answer questions.’ The department itself was something of a revelation, Ken says. ‘It was surprisingly not as rigidly structured as some of the traditional engineering courses,’ he says. ‘Due to the small groups, it allowed for extensive discussion and debate of different ideas. Read more Alexandra Shekhter ‘It was exactly as I expected, and more. I did PhD by research in the department and enjoyed every minute of it.’ Studying materials engineering at Monash was a life-changing experience for Dr Alexandra Shekhter (2003), a research scientist at the Defence Science and Technology Organisation. ‘If I didn’t do a PhD in materials engineering, I doubt I would be in the job I am now,’ she says. Read more Katherine Dean ‘The idea that the science I am involved in may one day make a significant impact on the environmental footprint we make as a society is a key driver for me.’ Dr Katherine Dean (2002) fell in love with research during her honours year—now she is a research scientist with Green Materials, at CSIRO Manufacturing and Materials Technology. One of the highlights of her time in the department was studying for four months in Lyon, France, as part of her PhD. Katherine did a double degree of Materials Science. Read more Edward Kosior Change is the only thing that doesn’t change, says Monash graduate Edward Kosior. And he should know. After graduating with a Master of Engineering Science in Polymer Engineering at Monash in 1985, Edward has worked as director of the RMIT Polymer Technology Centre, and as national manager of research and technology at Visy Plastics, where he designed and supervised the construction of the state-of-the-art recycling centre for post-consumer plastics at Reservoir, Victoria.

Read more Alireza Kouklan ‘I believe that these days multi-skilled people are essential for any professional job.’ Alireza Kouklan (2007) worked in the mining industry for about seven years before beginning a masters degree in materials engineering (corrosion) at Monash. Today he manages a team of corrosion specialists at Tenix, Australia’s largest defence and technology contractor. Read more Juri Jeske ‘The course at Monash was as I expected, challenging, and diverse enough to allow an informed choice for later specialisation.’ Juri Jeske (2003) decided to study materials engineering after undertaking work experience with the ceramics industry in Modena, Italy. ‘During this experience it became clear that a more detailed understanding of materials was required for me to pursue my career in this field in some meaningful way,’ Juri says. Read more Kelly Lawrence ‘After graduation I definitely wanted to find a job that would use the knowledge I had obtained while doing my degree. In my last year or so I thought that I would prefer a job within the manufacturing industry.’ Read more Mark Forrest ‘A few materials science units I took were taught by materials engineering staff, and the range and scope of materials covered made the multidisciplinary nature of materials engineering appealing.’ Research engineer Dr Mark Forrest (2001) takes body protection very seriously. A research fellow at Deakin University, Mark is using composite materials to develop personal armour. Read more Dr Marcus Zipper ‘By acting as a bridge between the R&D at CSIRO and our key external stakeholders and customers, I can have an impact that will provide benefit to Australia and Australian industry.’ Read more Jenny Law Jenny decided to study materials engineering during first-year engineering at Monash. ‘The interesting materials subject influenced my choice and also my career prospects,’ she says. ‘Materials engineering seemed novel, interesting and fun compared with the other engineering courses offered at the time.’ Read more David Monk ‘Monash was a friendly environment to work in—the staff always had their doors open if you had questions or concerns. Having a student room for the final year developed a great team environment.’ For materials engineering graduate David Monk (1998), it was a case of moving from one close-knit group at Monash to another in the refining industry. David is Senior Reliability Engineer at Mobil Refining Australia, in Altona, Victoria. Read more Michelle Katz ‘Now I know that materials engineering is in everyday life, such as design of planes, cars, computers etc. These are the examples that I use when I explain materials engineering to people who have no idea what it is.’ Originally Michelle was interested in chemical engineering, but she soon had second thoughts. ‘My interest switched to materials engineering, mainly because I felt that it was most similar to science, and I believed that I was better at science than engineering,’ she says. Read more Campbell Thomas ‘The close day-to-day interaction with my fellow undergrads formed some life-long friendships. The academics were always willing to assist and generally showed an excellent level of professionalism in their lectures.’ Campbell Thomas (1998) was intent on becoming a chemical engineer, and then he discovered materials engineering.

Examining The Impact Of Renewable Energy On The Electric Power Grid . ENERGY TECH Examining The Impact Of Renewable Energy On The Electric Power Grid A power grid in California. by Staff Writers Troy NY (SPX) Nov 13, 2006 With a $1.23 million grant, researchers from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute will be creating a distributed power "test-bed" to study how the electricity distribution grid might be affected by the widespread adoption of clean, renewable energy sources. The two-year project, which is funded by the New York State Office of Science, Technology and Academic Research (NYSTAR), is designed to help understand the potential effects of meeting New York state's key alternative energy goal - by 2012, more than 25 percent of power generation through renewable energy sources such as wind, solar, and fuel cells. "Global energy security is the greatest challenge of our time," Rensselaer President Shirley Ann Jackson said. "The solutions rest in redundancy of supply and diversity of source, and will require innovation: innovation in the discovery, extraction, and transportation of fossil fuels; innovation in conservation; and innovation to develop alternative energy sources which are reliable, cost-effective, safe, and environmentally benign. "This project - which seeks to enhance our understanding of the effect of adding an increasing number of small-scale renewable electricity generating sources to the utility grid - further demonstrates the leadership role Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and New York state are taking to secure our global energy future. I applaud NYSTAR for its support of this vital research," added Jackson. As people begin adopting small-scale renewable sources to power homes and businesses, problems in the utility grid could arise because these sources are likely to be connected at the local distribution level. "For example, I do not want my photovoltaic system's inverter to go off when my neighbor's central air conditioner comes on," said Nag Patibandla, director of Rensselaer's Center for Future Energy Systems (CFES). "We want to understand how the distribution grid functions at a high degree of renewable resources penetration." Patibandla led New York's Distributed Generation program for five years before joining Rensselaer. For the new project, he and his colleagues plan to build a test system on the Rensselaer campus where they can attach a number of simulated renewable energy sources along with equipment that is susceptible to fluctuations in power output. Examples of sensitive loads include high-power computer systems, light-emitting diodes (LEDs) in traffic lights, and wastewater treatment plants. Renewable energy sources are themselves inherently sensitive because they have inverters that convert direct current to alternating current, Patibandla said. "The award to Rensselaer will enable it to strengthen its research and development activity in a critically important area of technology," said NYSTAR Executive Director Michael J. Relyea. "It is one of many initiatives reflecting the vision and leadership of Governor Pataki and the Legislature. NYSTAR is thrilled to fund such economically worthwhile scientific endeavors at Rensselaer. The academic and private sector support that backs this important Rensselaer initiative on new energy systems is a testament to the incredible dynamic nature of research, development, and commercialization efforts ongoing at Rensselaer." Researchers at the CFES will be partnering with Sensitron Semiconductor of Deer Park, NY; Inverters Unlimited Inc. of Albany, NY; and Advanced Energy Conversion of Malta, NY The project also will examine policy aspects of renewable resources penetration in partnership with the Pace Energy Project, part of Pace Law School's Center for Environmental Legal Studies. "With growing concern over the security of our energy supply and its consequences for the global climate, energy is emerging as one of the defining public policy issue of our generation," said Pace Law School Dean Stephen Friedman. "Pace is pleased to join with Rensselaer on this important initiative to define the technological, economic, and regulatory framework for supporting renewable energy and clean distributed generation as an ever-increasing part of our future energy mix." The CFES, in partnership with Cornell University, Brookhaven National Laboratory, and Clarkson University, seeks to meet the energy challenges of the 21st century by focusing on innovation in and commercialization of energy conservation and renewable energy systems. The new project will expand the current efforts in technology commercialization at CFES into the area of distributed power generation, or the use of small-scale generators located close to the power load being served. Specifically, the researchers will examine the stability and dynamic behavior of the electricity grid, the feasibility of installing distributed energy to counter-balance natural intermittency, and grid stability and power quality, Patibandla said. The award is being made through NYSTAR's Centers for Advanced Technology Development Program, which seeks to enhance and expand the capabilities of existing Centers for Advanced Technology that have achieved a record of success. In addition to Patibandla, two Rensselaer researchers will be co-principal investigators: Jian Sun, associate professor of electrical, computer, and systems engineering; and Nadarajah Narendran, director of research at Rensselaer's Lighting Research Center. The project also will support six Rensselaer graduate students.

I am still trying to pin point where the noise is coming from but it is a rolling type of scraping I thought it was mud in the rotors or something but I have got ALL of the mud off and I still get the noise. Sounds like front Right side. I am gonna get the book out and see what kind of checks to do to check the CV joints and stuff. Hopefully it is nothing bad. I can not get it to the Mech til next week.

Brumfield/NEMS Daily Journal Djournal.Com 5 months ago | 587 views | 0 | 7 | | Allen Stanford reportedly says his memory is gone, the Wall Street Journal reported Friday.Stanford, the former Texas financier, says he cannot remember events prior to his arrest in June 2009, the WSJ quotes a person close to the case.Last January, US District Judge David Hittner in Texas ordered Stanford to medical treatment for an addiction to anti-psychotic medications he'd been prescribed in prison.Hittner declared Stanford incompetent to help with his own defense and postponed his criminal trial on multiple charges that he ran a $7.2 billion Ponzi scheme on investors.The Dallas judge expects a report soon about Stanford's current mental condition.Hundreds of Mississippians were among the 30,000 investors worldwide who lost their life savings and retirement funds when the Stanford empire collapsed in 2009 under the weight of a US Securities and Exchange Commission investigation.Friday's WSJ report also says the US Department of Justice is investigating whether French bank Societe Generale helped Stanford's investor scheme by ignoring suspicious transactions.At issue is a Swiss bank account held by one of Stanford's companies at the bank's subsidiary. The account was allegedly funded by investor money and used to make payments into Stanford's personal accounts.If DOJ concludes that the bank ignored potential criminal activity, the report said, that could be the basis for prosecution under federal anti-money laundering statutes.WSJ said the probe shows that after more than two years investigators still are trying to unravel the global fraud alleged by Stanford and associates.Prosecutors say Stanford's "secret account" was accessed only by him and James Davis, his former chief financial officer from Baldwyn.Davis pleaded guilty to his part in the scheme in the fall of 2009 and has been helping the government with its case. He's been living on his wife's family farm in Michigan ever since.patsy.brumfield@journalinc.com Copyright 2012 djournal.com. All rights reserved.

Some commentators of the game are even going as far to suggest that a Dockers flag in 2006 isn't out of the realms of possibility, and while this a romantic notion it isn't necessarily in lines with reality. History suggests that a side needs to experience finals pain before they can genuinely contend for the premiership. The Dockers cross-town rivals West Coast fell short at the last hurdle in 1991 against Hawthorn, but bounced back the next season to claim the first of two premierships in three years for the club. Even Brisbane, regarded by many as the greatest side of the modern era played five finals from 1999 to 2000 before claiming the first of three flags in 2001. Compare this with Fremantle who have played one final since their inception in 1995- a 44-point loss to Essendon at Subiaco in 2003, and you can see why any talk of a Docker premiership is premature. One only has to ask the likes of Port Adelaide, Sydney or St Kilda to find out how hard it is to win a premiership. Consider this, the Power played seven finals from 2001-03 and were arguably the best side in the competition during the season proper, having collected three straight minor premierships from 2002-04, but didn't snag their first flag until '04. The Saints would have to join Port as the most unlucky side of the modern era. The men from Moorabbin haven't tasted premiership success since 1966, and have lost consecutive preliminary finals to the Power and Sydney respectively. One would suggest that the premiership window has closed on the Saints. Even last year's premiers have fallen short in recent years prior to their success of 2005. The Swans lost a preliminary final to eventual premiers Brisbane in 2003, after being right in the match at three-quarter time and seemingly having the Lions on the rope. Sydney experienced more pain in '04 when they were comprehensively beaten by the Saints to the tune of 61 points in a semi-final. Would you have predicted the Swans to come out the following season and capture the flag? Probably not, but it's clear that they were better for the experience. Experience is the key, something which Fremantle lacks, with only skipper Peter Bell,hard-man Josh Carr, Jarrad Schofield and former Lion Des Headland tasting premiership success Adding further weight to the lack of experience argument is the fact that the three players in the Fremantle squad to have played the most finals have done so with other clubs, Jarrad Schofield (17) with Port Adelaide, Peter Bell (16) with the Kangaroos and Dockers and Jeff Farmer (7) with Melbourne and Freo. Thus any talk of a Fremantle premiership is all too premature. Let them win a final first and see where it takes them. Remember, finals pain before premiership gain. 44 Vote subscribe to this blog follow this blog on Orble start your own blog [ Link ] Posted By: TonyK - Category: No Category Related Posts: Relate This Post [ Previous - Hawks tight-lipped on Everitt ] [ Next - Tiger re-sign key four ] Add A Comment To create a fully formatted comment please click here.CLICK HERE TO LOGIN | CLICK HERE TO REGISTER Name or Orble Tag Home Page (optional) Comments --- Size --- 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 --- Color --- Aqua Black Blue Fuchsia Gray Green Lime Maroon Navy Olive Purple Red Silver Teal White Yellow Notify me of replies Yes No Your Email Address (optional)(required for reply notification) Submit More Posts August 2010 1 Posts May 2010 73 Posts April 2010 61 Posts Older Posts 3205 Posts dating from August 2006 Email Subscription Receive e-mail notifications of new posts on this blog: 0 [ View Blog Summary ] [ Create A New Post ] [ Add A Comment ] Moderated by TonyK[ take over this inactive blog ] Orble Orble Homepage Start an Orble Blog Popular Orble Australian Rules Posts The new season is almost here2012 TSL Fixture out soonFevola set to turn sights to punting Popular Orble Sport Posts Welcome back...Bubble teams conference by conferenceNBA Power Rankings Feb 29thNBA Weekly Awards- Feb 29thNanoFil knot trumps King SlingChanging my mind on Dwight HowardHow to make a rope lure for garFormer Tulane football coach Bob Toledo would help improve any struggling offense in the countryArsenal 5-2 SpursDoes Anyone watch All Star Games?

Don't get stuck, get a grip. If you bury your head in the sand, then circumstances will force you to make long overdue changes. Better by far to stay ahead of the game, and volunteer for the inevitable. That way you have a better chance of staying in control of events and directing your future path. Solar eclipses happen every six months, in different cycles which recur every 18.5 years (the Saros Cycle). The sign and cycle in which the eclipse occurs will tell you which area of your activities is shouting for a shakeup. In the rundown below read your Sun sign and your Ascendant sign. [If you don't know your ascendant, go to www.star4cast.com FREE Birth Charts and it will calculate it for you.] Take time to work out what happened to you personally 18.5 years ago, or 37. The two major domestic/country moves in my life took place exactly that distance apart in the years of eclipses in the same cycle. And I only worked that one out after the decision was taken. This approaching December solar eclipse in Sagittarius will obviously have more effect on Sagittarian Sun or Ascendant types, who are at a real turning point in their lives. Geminis are looking closely at relationships. The other mutable signs, Virgo and Pisces are focusing on home and work matters. Taurus and Scorpio are money-minded; Capricorn and Cancer have work and health dilemmas; Leo and Aquarius are trying to balance love and friendships; Aries and Libra are grappling with nitty gritty communication and organisational matters. More details below. This eclipse cycle won't recur until 2020, so this is your chance to take the initiative, ask yourself fundamental questions about what you really want to do with this area of your life, and then make the radical decisions necessary. The few days before and after an eclipse are usually fraught, highly strung, rather nervy, with few (except astrology followers) understanding why everyone is so on edge. The eclipse effect carries a major theme for the following six months and will be felt for a few weeks in advance, so there's no sense in delaying until December 4th. Get your thinking cap on. In primitive days, the ancients' view of eclipses was that the darkening of the Sun was a portent of doom, putting them at the mercy of the fates. But these were highly superstitious people, with no sense of control of their lives. Eclipses can provoke crises, bringing unwanted upheavals, but nowadays you can chose your attitude and your strategy. Some world leaders have lives which seem eerily to follow eclipses: Nelson Mandela was imprisoned, released and became President on the exact week of eclipses. Saddam Hussein launched and then lost the Gulf War on an extraordinary series of eclipse driven events. He gathered his troops on the borders of Kuwait on the lunar eclipse in late July 1990, two weeks before the solar eclipse on which date the UN mandate to oppose him was agreed. In the following January on the next Solar eclipse, the Gulf War was launched. Princess Diana died one day before a solar eclipse conjunct the potent, furiously angry Mars Pluto conjunction in Virgo in her chart.The previous eclipse in the same series 18.5 years before fell within days of the assassination of the Earl of Mountbatten, Prince Charles' uncle. John F. Kennedy Jnr was killed in a plane crash days before the major 1999 solar eclipse, which was the same cycle as oversaw the death of his stillborn baby brother and indeed the assassination of his father, two cycles before. For those of us not caught up in world events, the effects are likely to be much less dramatic or tragic, but they are significant if you really want to grow and develop as a human being. This December Solar Eclipse is in a tricky Saros Cycle, usually accompanying a mood of high frustration, intense emotional reactions and a sense of being stuck with circumstances or relationship matters, seemingly beyond personal control. To add to the general feeling of angst, power-hungry Pluto is close to the eclipse, and the dreary Saturn opposition comes a few days later, though admittedly optimistic Jupiter in Leo is trying to add a dash of good luck as well from a trine. Bernadette Brady in The Eagle and the Lark remarks that rash action is inadvisable. GW Bush might do well to pay heed. For most of us these are tough times, with anchors dragging, and generally a sense that life is quite a struggle. Roll on the end of the Saturn Pluto opposition mid 2003, and bring on the joyous eclipses of next year. So it's grit your teeth and make the best of it for now. Here's how: Sun and Ascendant Sign: SAGITTARIUS: An eclipse in your own sign says you are at a crossroads and must chose your path for the next few years. Decisions need to be pondered because there will be no backtracking. Make up your mind, get committed and then get moving. If you look the other way and ignore the eclipse effect, then a crisis in the next few months will force you to see where you have been over compromising. Be independent, don't rely on others for advice, let alone be diverted onto your partner's agenda. It ain't easy, but you do have choices. GEMINI: Close emotional and work partnerships and your whole attitude to sharing, caring and relating are under the microscope. You must move into a more co-operative frame of mind, tolerant, flexible and willing to compromise. As an independent, restless air sign, none of this comes naturally. Old relationships may be under strain and on the point of parting company. Do they really suit your needs? Only you know the answer. Strong bonds will weather the storms. New relationships will come as you clear the decks of psychological debris from the past. VIRGO: At an outer level, ensuring you have a solid, secure home and domestic base where you can put down roots is your cri de Coeur. At an inner level you are moving away from old ways of relating and refusing to be trapped by family members or loved ones who want you to stay exactly where and as you are. Pushed and pulled by opposing demands from heavy work responsibilities and emotional pressures, you need to put your own needs first. When your dilemma threatens to get on top of you, go dig the garden, walk in nature, or have a Californian massage. Getting in touch with earth energy will help. PISCES: Is a career crisis looming? Maybe it's a hint from the universe that you are heading in the wrong direction and trying to fit your talents into the wrong box. You know you want to make your mark on the world, and have your achievements recognised, but you have to be fulfilling what truly feels like a vocation for that to happen. With Pluto around, you will also be questioning your attitude to power figures and who holds the control. Maybe you can't be the megalomaniac you'd like, but you need to ensure that no one else is pulling your strings at work either. Push family responsibilities into their proper place and focus on your ambitions. TAURUS: Two things are dear to your heart – one is money and the other is power (OK and sex is in there somewhere as well). Your sense of security may be shaken because circumstances seemingly outside your control seem to be posing a threat to your power and prosperity base. This solar eclipse falling in the deepest, most hidden area of your chart suggests you need to get right down to rock bottom to find fundamental answers to your present sticky situation. As a fixed sign you expect the world and other people to adapt to you, rather than the other way round. This eclipse says you need to share, care, co-operate and relate in a profoundly different way in future if you are to improve joint finances and spark up your sex life in the months to come – and avoid a crisis. Hanging on for too much control, could backfire. Trust the universe and go with the flow. SCORPIO: Money is on your mind, not joint finances as with Taurus, but your own personal piggy-bank. In the face of ungenerous influences, you know you need to take a major initiative to shake up your finances to bring prosperity in the coming months. Luckily your formidable stamina will stand you in good stead, and Jupiter also helps at your mid-heaven, bringing a hint of career success. But you can't afford to dither around, praying for a lottery win or a long-lost relative to leave you a fortune. Get real, get thinking, and then get working. CAPRICORN: A hidden eclipse in the sign before yours sparks up psychological tensions, uncomfortable echoes of unresolved issues from the past and a general feeling of stuck-ness. If you can see the awkward events happening around you as useful pointers, reflections of what is going on at an inner level, then you can make real use of this eclipse. Not naturally an inward-looking sign, you may need to force yourself to ask the probing questions that will bring profound answers. Don't be put off by imagining you will find all manner of horrors. On the contrary you will find you are a richer, stronger personality than you could have imagined. Your unlived emotions tend to put extra strain on your body, so be good to yourself physically by reaching for a deeper self-understanding. CANCER: Sagittarius is your area for work and health. You will be facing a dilemma about how to regenerate your career, improve your working conditions and build up your general health. The likelihood with Pluto in place is that you will be meeting resistance in your efforts, but don't let that put you off. Pluto can produce solidly substantial results, but it usually takes a struggle and strong determination. Don't meet unco-operative workmates head on in a stalemate battle. Duck and dive a little. Aim for influence, not outright control. Realise also you have to let go certain old ambitions which have lost their fire. Physically you need to pay better attention to your body's needs, get even minor ailments fixed, and then you will sail ahead in robust form. LEO: Love may be on your mind, but it may not be what you are attracting. This eclipse will make you aware of where you are not getting the affection, admiration and adoration you want from loved ones, children or even social mates. Tricky, I know, to be exuberant and utterly seductive with the wet-blanket Saturn-Pluto around. But this is your challenge. You need to allow your personality to shine brightly, to step out without apology or doubt, to be where you feel fulfilled which is centre stage. Two thoughts: one is that what you lack, you must first give. Have you been too meagre in handing out kisses, cuddles and compliments? Go to it. The second is that Pluto tends to make you clutch if you feel you are not getting attention. Let go. If you cage loved ones in, they will struggle to break free. AQUARIUS: Always known as the humanitarian sign, this could be your chance to make a real difference to the society or world in which you live. Certainly you know you need to widen your circle of friends and acquaintances in the months, if not years to come, but don't keep stick to a frivolous, exclusively social agenda. You could join hands with influential movers and shakers to have a powerful influence on what is going on around you. You also know you need to nudge yourself into setting long term goals. Don't just think five year plan, think 20 year plan. It doesn't have to be set in concrete, you can adapt as you go along, but you will be better with a broad strategy and well defined goals. ARIES: Travel, communication, improving your mind – all of these are sparked off by this eclipse, which is generally prompting you to broaden your horizons in whichever you can. Set your sights higher. Let your imagination soar. Think big, don't get bogged down in trivia. Saturn Pluto is hardly an exciting or inspirational overlay, but nonetheless this is your challenge. You need to spread your ideas to a wider audience, find more intellectual stimulation and see where you can get yourself out of a rut. LIBRA: Sorting out your everyday schedule may not sound like a bundle of fun, but if you don't get a grip of minutiae, details and organization, then your life will lack a solid, realistic base. Think about how you communicate. Are you being misunderstood at work? Collect your thoughts first, speak simply and then double check to make sure your message got across. It may not be the content that's at fault, more the delivery.Start each day with a checklist and you won't race round in circles getting in a muddle. Think small for a few months, then you will fly the higher come next May. Marjorie's new book The Astrological History of the World (Sterling Publications; ISBN

The Seventh Alabama Cavalry The Seventh Alabama Cavalry The Seventh cavalry was organized in July, 1863, as part of Clanton's brigade, and served for more than a year in Quarles', Clanton's, Page's, Patton's and Thomas' brigades, in the vicinity of Pensacola and the bay forts. In the fall of 1864, it reported to General Forrest at Corinth, and took part in the raid on Johnsonville and the fighting as Hood moved toward Nashville. It suffered severely at this time, especially in the night attack on Brentwood. The regiment, after recruiting, joined General Buford at Montevallo in March, 1865; confronted Wilson's corps from Benton to Girard, and took part in the last fighting of the war, surrendering at Gainesville, May 14, 1865. Col. Joseph Hodgson led the regiment throughout the war, though detachments were at various times commanded with brilliant success by Maj. Turner Clanton, Jr., Captain Ledyard, and others. Capt. Charles P. Storrs was wounded at Columbia; Adjt. William T. Charles was captured at one time, but escaped.

Retail conference with Reggie recorded. Some nice tidbits! [Mobile/Archive] - Cheap Ass Gamer Cheap Ass Gamer > Video Game Discussions > Nintendo Gaming > Retail conference with Reggie recorded. Some nice tidbits! PDA View Full Version : Retail conference with Reggie recorded. Some nice tidbits! Grave_Addiction06-24-2005, 12:33 PMHopefully not a repost. http://www.optimalcamouflage.com/reggie_retail.wma evilmax1706-24-2005, 12:34 PMBullet point summary anyone? Grave_Addiction06-24-2005, 12:53 PMIt can be kind of hard to hear Reggie at times, so I typed up the entire clip as best I could. As you can see, Revolution will more than hold its own in graphical performance. What we also know is that what you publishers and developers see when you look at the spec sheet of our competitor's new systems. Larger budgets, higher staffing, steeper learning curve and longer production schedules. Nintendo Revolution is designed to be none of these. Our conscious decision was to take a different path. Revolution will be the home to stunning new game masterpieces from Nintendo and our third parties. In fact, the balance built into Revolution makes it the perfect choice to achieve your highest creative goals. But if your budgets are a little more (motto?), I would recommend to also envision the creation of much better game experiences with much less hassle. We expect the time frame needed to make Nintendo's Revolution game to be substantially shorter than all of our competitors. In effect, we see Revolution to be the best new console for game developing partners no matter what type of game you're making. Finally for all of our retail partners, I can hear you whispering under your breaths, "Don't tell me about developing games, just tell me what games you're gonna deliver." Well, let's talk about that. First, we expect the great third-party support we now have on Gamecube to be both stronger and earlier on the Revolution. And we will be more aggressive than ever in having our own new in-house stars, the greatest gathering of (byte-sized characters?) in history by as early as possible. You can expect new Nintendo intelluctual properties in the launch window. Our franchise stars are about to make some new friends. And you should know that development of new Revolution titles is already underway. Javery06-24-2005, 12:55 PMNice! evilmax1706-24-2005, 12:58 PMMuch much appreciated for that, thank you. "our already great third party support" was funny. Sounds like they saw a video at first. Shorter dev times + easy dev = hopefully tons of games Strell06-24-2005, 12:59 PMnew game *couldn't understand what he was saying here* from Nintendo and our third parties. He said "masterpieces." That's all I have to add. Now, where did this come from? This speech? I mean it sounds like we've only got about the last half of this speech. It's apparent that at some point he must have been discussing raw graphical power. "It will more than hold its own." That makes feel a bit better about that issue, but it is Reggie, meaning I know it's his job to hype...He mentions competitor spec sheets as if he has something comparable to them right now (i.e., as he's talking to these people). There's got to be some information on this somewhere. I need some serious reassurance about the graphics, and it sounds like this could be the first indication that the power issue is about to be put to rest. I mean, if all the systems are within 10% or so of each other in terms of raw power, then the graphics debate is dead. Put the best graphical games of all three systems now, and you can barely tell a true difference. I assume it's going to be exactly the same for the next generation. Of course, that's just all my speculation. jkam06-24-2005, 01:02 PMSounds good. I want to see Kid Icarus back! I think Nintendo has a good idea with giving developers an easier task. It would be nice to see the Revolution get really solid 3rd party support. I wouldn't mind seeing some of the things that the XBOX and the PS2 got such as Street Fighter Anniversary Collection (online) as long as there done right. The N64 and the Cube had great games but lacked in pure numbers of titles. With this new approach they may be able to swing some back their way. Anxiously awaiting this console. ryanbph06-24-2005, 01:03 PMI thought their was a recent interview with nintendo, saying they weren't done with the revolution. How are they making the games, if they don't have an idea on what the revolution will be. I am sure it will be easy to develop for Nintendo, but doesn't the XNA, also cut down on costs and development time? evilmax1706-24-2005, 01:06 PMI need some serious reassurance about the graphics. It's been said that the Rev will be 3 times more powerful than the GCN. Look at RE4, and picture it times 3. I think that would look pretty good! the3rdkey06-24-2005, 01:07 PMI thought their was a recent interview with nintendo, saying they weren't done with the revolution. How are they making the games, if they don't have an idea on what the revolution will be. I am sure it will be easy to develop for Nintendo, but doesn't the XNA, also cut down on costs and development time? They are done with the SPECs, the final system design will be smaller. Strell06-24-2005, 01:09 PMYea, and I know the bullshit "OMG 1600 TIMES MORE POWERFUL" from MS and Sony is just hype, and that the 2-3x power is something conservative from Nintendo, but I still want something a little more concrete than vague jargon. Still, even a leap of that beyond Zelda/RE4/Metroid Prime is enough to render my brain dizzy. Javery06-24-2005, 01:11 PMWell, we know games won't look as nice on the Revolution simply due to the lack of HD support unless you are one of those billion unlucky bastards without an HDTV... Strell06-24-2005, 01:14 PMLet's see. 15 FPS game on HD. Or 60 FPS game on normal tv. Yea, I'm worried too. willardhaven06-24-2005, 01:22 PMa 20" signal with s-video or component cables makes a lot of HD sets look like crap... screw resolution, I like high FPS myself. Revolution sounds like it will be good, I wish we could just get Gamecube 2 though. jkam06-24-2005, 01:25 PMWell, we know games won't look as nice on the Revolution simply due to the lack of HD support unless you are one of those billion unlucky bastards without an HDTV... I know your'e really ticked about the Revo and HD. There are already some sites up to try to sway Nintendo. http://www.1080up.org/ You may want to e-mail Nintendo yourself as well. The more people that do may sway them to add it. D4rkewolfe07-07-2005, 01:38 AMFirst -- please be civil and post here. Too many HD topics floating around. Second -- HD is up in the air. Whether an article says it will be on there, or one says it won't, with over a year before release, anything can change. Third -- Would the addition or subtraction of HD have an effect on you buying a Revolution? Is it that important to you? Finally -- Have a conversation, not a fight That's from one of the NOA people in their forums. So with the list going around, if you really want it, have it signed. As they said, anything can change. PawnTakesKing07-07-2005, 02:15 AM...unless you are one of those billion unlucky bastards without an HDTV... *raises hand in shame* MorPhiend07-16-2005, 07:35 PMHe said "masterpieces."

Of course, that's just all my speculation. As to the graphical power, all I can say is search for the thread back around e3 time about the new patent concerning cube mapping. Some said that was old technology. But read the whole patent. It is not the same as the old "cube maps." It is a new technology that is designed to allow for "low" spec systems that consume low power to outperform high tech, expensive, loud energy wasting chipsets. I wouldn't be surprised if the specs themselves are on par with M$, and in practice are up to Sony's system - if this tech actually is part of the RevOlution... EDIT: I justlistened to this. Isn't it the pre-e3 Nintendo conference? Thatthing was an hour long. That's probably why you didn't notice. Sarang0107-22-2005, 05:59 PMI know your'e really ticked about the Revo and HD. There are already some sites up to try to sway Nintendo. http://www.1080up.org/ You may want to e-mail Nintendo yourself as well. The more people that do may sway them to add it. I plan to call Nintendo out on it ON the radio and KC, hopefully to shame them into it. I'm a Nintendo fan and already have a HD set and will be severely PISSED if Nintendo doesn't support it. Also I'm even willing to PAY extra to get a Revolution with an HDMI and new Firewire

What a DP does CML-Cinematography Mailing List Cinematography Mailing List Recent CML Tests Canon C300 initial latitude tests Epic exposed +/- 7 stops With & Without HDR Alexa +/- 7 stops Infra Red exposure & Filter tests Skintone tests Alexa-Canon 7D-Panasonic 3700 Red-MX-SI2K What a DP does I'd like your help. What does a DoP do. . .i.e. what are the duties of a DoP? Thanks in advance Geoff Boyle Doesn't it change with every Job, or job level? I just shot something where I was Everything: loader, Grip, Gaffer, Food stylist, ETC. (however this was something for me, so I was also the director). I will not shoot without an AC, it is necessary to have one. I wonder if your question isn't broad enough though. besides the duties : Preproduction planning, scheduling, Choosing equipment ( on my level I tend to be the one writing the order for Grip/Electric, as well as Camera, I'm sure that there are many who DP's who work bigger budgeted/crewed jobs who discuss the job with their Keys, and let them take care of the specifics, such as how many C-stands and sand bags), color timing ( either TK, or Print {with a colorist}). I've gone on location scouts alone and ended up having to secure the location for production ( being grilled by a member of the Judiciary is not fun), and I won't do that again. It seems to me, that the DP is also Management ( when looked at from a labor stand point). Although it is not always the case, certainly there are crossover aspects from each side. Besides asking what a DP's duties are, should we also ask over which "things" (for want of a better word) a DP has absolute control over, and cannot be overidden? It is a tough question, I've gone from one shoot that was so badly organized by production that I had to do the Tie in, run the cable, and hang most of the lights ( as well as share AD duties with the Sound man and the KEY P.A.). To two days later Working on a great shoot that All I had to do was talk with the director, and operate the Camera. The AC and the Grips did all the technical work I asked for( NO lights). It really changes on a job to job basis ( for me), sometimes what I do changes in the middle of the Job, especially if the Director becomes a jerk, and I am working way too hard for no reason ( at that point SUPERHUMAN Steve goes away). Steven ( well that's my view of it, You must have a reason for asking this Geoff) Gladstone - wow I even worked a little ranting into my answer http://members.aol.com/veenotph Having been blessed with the opportunity to work in a wide variety of types of production, eg.16,35,IMAX docs, ride films, corporate, industrial, medical, political, commercial, broadcast sports, brroadcast news, broadcast magazine, broadcast dramatic, music video, indies, and big studio pictures and in many different countries under different types of systems, I would try to define the DP's role using those horrible Venn diagrams of the "new math" era, a dark period in US public school education. There is a core set of responsibilites which is, I think, shared by DP's in all types of production (except perhaps non-dramatic and "soap opera "multicam studio TV work which has Lighting Directors and operators but often no DP). Those responsibilites would include the aesthetic decision-making for lighting, exposure, and filtration and the choice of camera, lenses, and camera support equipment. Past that core, the additional responsibilites seem to depend on both the general type of work and on the specific project team and relationships between them. It seems that in addition to the core responsibilities, the DP will also handle at least one, generally two or three, and sometimes all of the following additional duties: (not ranked by importance) Timing/grading of images Decisions concerning camera placement and movement (sometimes but not always shared with the Director) Operating camera (often delegated to an operator and sometimes usurped by a director) Technical decisions concerning lighting (often shared with the gaffer & key grip, and in a few cases the Director - eg.Stanley and Ridley ) Technical decisions concerning equipment used to move and support camera (often shared with the Key grip) Actor movement and blocking (shared with some directors) Aesthetic and technical issues concerning set painting and treatment ( in concert with prod designer, art director, director, and in commercials- client) Choice of locations and their proposed use Editorial decisions concerning scene coverage and/or documentary content (my late mentor Burleigh Wartes was famous for cutting films in the camera, leaving the editor of record tiny little handles) Supply of camera, lighting, and grip equipment, and transportation thereof. Choice of crew Contracting and payment of crew (this seems to be diminishing in our liability loaded world) So the diagram which would show all this would have a bunch of amoeba-like figures encompassing various combinations of these responsibilites but with all of them including the aesthetic lighting, exposure, and filtration area. I'm sure I missed a bunch, and I know a list is not a definition, but the specifics seem to vary so much. Mark Weingartner To the incredibly extensive and comprehensive list I would add, simply, that the Cinematographer (I still prefer that title, as opposed to the Director of PHotography, which underscores the Manager aspect of the job, but not the artistic) is the visual author of the film. Yes, much is decided by the director, etc., but if the director's job is to tell a story on film, it is our job to become the audience's eye, to lead or retreat, hide or reveal visual elements of the story. To this end, we have the technos of our craft at our disposal, but without a POINT OF VIEW, the technique is empty. And it is this Point of View that makes us the visual author of the film. Vittorio Storaro has said this all very eloquently before, to which I'd like to add a quote from Degas: "One reproduces only that which is striking, that is to say, the necessary. Thus one's recollections and invention are liberated from the tyranny which nature exerts." Even when we approach existing light circumstances, the way in which we find and linger on specific details is an authoring of the visual world, which is where the art begins. Thom Harp I had (another) day off today so tried to answer this rugged little question A Director of Photography's duty is to; 1. Design the photography to serve your director's plans and answer the stories purpose- both in fidelity with the best traditions of the craft and your own artistic convictions. Learn the directors personality as best you're able and establish a common photograhic language with him. Understand the script and the proposed style of editing. 2. Collaborate with fellow dept. heads from the first meeting possible. Stay apprised of the developments in all the depts. that will directly or indirectly effect photography, set function and set efficiency. 3. Pre-demonstrate the photographic style(s) conclusively from film tests whenever possible. Assess that the photographic design equates with a pragmatic shooting schedule. Be abreast of the release plans of the picture, of likely contingencies and plot the technology routes so principle photography best complies with the final release objective(s). Integrate a plan of quality control and consistency with the lab. 4. Sign on, fit out and command the camera dept. Be accountable for all action within the dept (camera, lighting and grip crews) Be satisfied that all crew signed on to the production within these depts will answer to the skill level required. Oversee the logistic preparedness of these depts. 5. Establish the tone on set that best fits your working style. (i.e.insisting that the set is turned over to you after blocking or that the set is quiet when you work or that The Clash is always played while you work). Lead the crew by example and ensure a healthy work place that is safe, respectful and professional (encouraging some esprit d'corps is a valuable service to all). Back up the crew and if needed, demand the above conditions prevail. Likewise demand that the crew back you up with performance. 6. Meet the schedule. Come prepared to supply the celerity and raw ingenuity demanded to satisfy your artistic want of truth and accuracy. Be flexible to the rapid changes of physical enviornment and/or the director's priorities. Manuevre the mechanical apparatus and personel involved to keep hitting a moving target. 7. Maintain yourselfself physically with rest, diet and regimen to keep up your stamina. Be attentive to the effect of the schedule on your crew and represent their health and safety conditions to production if neccessary. 8. Make do with what you have. 9. Walk your pictures through the post production phases with care - or as arranged by contract and schedule. In the severe words of The Admirality of The Royal Navy when issueing orders to commanders at sea --> " Hereof nor you nor any of you may fail or you will answer the contrary at your peril." Caleb "do or die" Crosby To me it boils down to this : The role of the Director of Photography in audiovisial production is to assume the full responsability of the image of the project. This includes two main resposabilities/tasks: 1. To be the first man next to the director in interpreting his story and wishes into concrete projected moving images, as an interpretor, as close as possible matching the CONTENTS of the message the director or author of the project wants to communicate. (this is the creative, artistic part, this takes feeling and talent to accomplish) 2. To assume the full reponsability over the technical quality of this image (upto final screening if allowed to) (this is the techinical; quality assurance part of the job) The DP, in order to achieve these goals, executes concrete tasks described before in this thread, and the actions to take may vary considerably depending on the needs and nature of the project and the DP and crew themselves. They always boil down to achieving the above 2 goals however. My 2 cents. Kind regards, Kommer Kleijn A question: What's the difference between a DoP and God? Answer: God dosen't think he's a DoP OK, OK, OK - don't flame me. It was a joke told to me by a producer friend of mine. It could just have easily been a reference to a director, producer, editor, etc. Simon_Wicks it seems everyone is defining a DP by his or her job duties and not by their artistic role. as pretentious as it might seem, I see the DP

Pattinson Will Come Out Fighting Casino Beacon Online Casinos Casino Reviews Casino Games Other Betting News & Articles Support UK Online Casinos > News & Articles > News 31 July 2008 Pattinson Will Come Out Fighting Stuart Broad is confident his Nottinghamshire and England team-mate Darren Pattinson will fight back from losing his Test place after just one match, as reported by Ladbrokes. Twenty-nine-year-old Pattinson's unexpected debut against South Africa at Headingley this month was accompanied by jibes about the wisdom of his sudden elevation. The Headingley experience proved to be a tough one for a bowler with only 11 previous first-class matches under his belt - and as he went wicketless on his return for Nottinghamshire at Trent Bridge on Wednesday, it was easy to fear for his state of mind. Broad, however, has no doubt the Grimsby-born but Australian-raised seamer will be back among the wickets with a vengeance soon - determined to reclaim his England place. Bet now at Ladbrokes After Durham had been bowled out for 266 - despite 85 from former Nottinghamshire batsman Will Smith - by Charlie Shreck (four for 69) and Broad (three for 47) on day one of the top-of-the-table LV County Championship Division One match, the latter turned his attention to Pattinson. "He's always upbeat. He's a lovely bloke and he got dealt with harshly by the press, because he bowled well for a Test debut on a very flat wicket." Broad recalled. "He's come out fighting; he's bowled well so far in this match, and we hope he can continue bowling well for Notts - because he's been one of our main strike bowlers in our run so far this season." Pattinson's ambitions came into question again yesterday when reports surfaced from Down Under that he would prefer to play for Victoria this winter than tour with England, if selected. He and Nottinghamshire quickly refuted those suggestions, however - and Broad confirmed: "He's smiling and he's still got international ambition. I'm sure he'll be aiming for some winter tours or Champions Trophy." Broad himself had a strange day - left out by England on the morning of the third Test at Edgbaston and rerouted to help Nottinghamshire's title challenge. It did not appear to bother him. "Obviously it's a bit odd having a drive between games when they've just started." said the 22-year-old. "But I did it a bit last year, when I was 12th man for India, shooting up motorways and then bowling in the afternoons. It is something I'm kind of used to, and obviously it is very enjoyable to have bowled them Durham out by the end of play and be in a very strong position. Charlie Shreck

Matt Stamey/The Gainesville Sun By Pat Dooley Sun sports columnist Published: Saturday, November 19, 2011 at 6:37 p.m. Last Modified: Saturday, November 19, 2011 at 6:37 p.m. The whole day just never felt right. The gloomy weather, a fine mist covering the tail-Gators before the game. The huge gaps of empty seats in the stands, not unpredictable but still embarrassing. The O'Connell Center parking lot looking a lot like it does on a typical Saturday ... in July.And then Florida getting boat-raced for a quarter by a team that lost to Elon last week.A text I received from my wife said it all, “Is this really happening?” Yes, it was and because Florida didn't panic and made adjustments and because Furman doesn't have a player Florida would even invite to Friday Night Lights, the Gators prevailed. Across the country, fans saw the 54-32 final and may have no idea how unsettling it was at The Swamp at around 2:15 p.m. Saturday.Could they possibly lose to Furman?At the time, it looked very possible. At the time, you wondered if the Gator defense would make Furman punt the entire game. At the time, you wondered if anything else could go wrong.“You start to realize that if anything could go wrong, it already has,” Will Muschamp said.Don't look for me to put a positive spin on this game.Sure, the Gators won by three touchdowns.Sure, Florida is bowl eligible.And yes, the Gators will get extra practices leading up to what is almost definitely a Gator Bowl appearance Jan. 2.“It's an extra spring practice,” Muschamp said.Great. More practices we can't watch.But this win said as much about this season as the losses have.Because it was Furman.I know the Paladins came in here fired up for a chance to play in The Swamp. I know they changed their offense during the week and surprised the Gators.But that only accounts for the 67 yards (all on running plays) on Furman's first drive. What about the other 379?“Once we identified what they were doing, we played better,” Muschamp said.After that first drive, Furman had 17 first downs and averaged 5.8 yards per play. That is not a good defense. If you saw it, you don't need the raw numbers to know how this defense didn't show up to play. The Gators missed enough tackles to fill a lowlight tape and so many times Furman running backs moved the pile as if they were being tackled by Pop Warner defenders.That's how it got to be 22-7 Furman after the first quarter. That's how that noise you heard if you had your windows open was the Gator fans who did show up squirming in their seats. That's how it was still a game early in the fourth quarter and I uttered a phrase I never thought I would in the fourth quarter of the Furman game -- “That was a huge field goal by Caleb Sturgis.”In the end, Florida won because it did the two things it hasn't done during the rest of the season.1. The wide receivers were a factor. They caught seven passes for 250 yards and three touchdowns. There was even a Quinton Dunbar sighting. The phenom of the preseason had a couple of big catches, including a touchdown reception.2. They had two pick-sixes. We had forgotten what those looked like. But the Gators iced the game with two nice plays from Pop Saunders and Jelani Jenkins, who had made a habit of dropping interceptions this season. “I had visions of when I was in high school playing running back,” Jenkins said of his 75-yard touchdown sprint.I heard a few boos Saturday when Florida fell behind by two touchdowns thanks in part to another snap over the head of quarterback John Brantley. There were more silly penalties, one on Matt Elam that set up Furman at the Florida 49 on the opening kickoff of the second half. There was the requisite 1-yard loss on a completed pass on third-and-7.And the offensive line continued to shuffle because of injuries, one of the reasons it was unable to open running lanes against a 6-5 FCS team.For much of the season, Gator fans have lamented that their team was just a few plays away from having a respectable record. This game made you wonder how they were competitive with Auburn, Georgia and South Carolina.Saturday was important for these Gators to become bowl eligible. But I'm not sure it showed that these Gators

DavidByrne.com - The New Sins - Eye Magazine Review The New Sins "Unclassifiable Book" By Rick Poynor, Eye Magazine no. 43 vol. 11 Sin is one of those words that has all but disappeared from our everyday vocabulary. To have a concept of sin, you need to believe in an old-fashioned, fire-and-brimstone God, keeping a tally on our moral progress in this world. Yet sin, when we pause to think about it, remains a powerful idea, if only because it suggests a set of external limits and a personal accountability that we often boast of leaving behind. So a book titled The New Sins is bound to be provocative, and this one, printed by an Icelandic maker of Bibles, comes clad in the foil-blocked,mock leather trappings of an authentic religious tract. The cover records that it has been ‘Translated out of the original tongues with the former translations diligently compared and revised’ – words taken from the King James version of the Bible. The title page attributes its wisdom to ‘The Better-Emancipated Strivers for Heaven’. Anyone encountering The New Sins stripped of the publisher’s bellyband will have to look hard to discover that its actual author is former Talking Head, photographer, film-maker, and Luaka Bop record label founder David Byrne, who created it for an art biennial in Valencia, Spain. From his earliest songs, Byrne combined a heart-on-sleeve sincerity with postmodern irony, playfulness and ambiguity. People assumed he was poking fun at eccentric Texans in his film True Stories, but he insisted that he regarded its cast of kooks with affection. He used the strange hand gestures of evangelical preachers as the basis for a memorably weird dance routine, and his ‘new sins’ mix humour with semi-serious intent in much the same way. According to Byrne’s oddball reasoning, some of it modified from real religious texts, everything we mistakenly believe to be virtuous – charity, sense of humour, beauty, thrift, ambition, hope, intelligence/knowledge, contentment, sweetness, honesty and cleanliness – is a sin of the most insidious kind. Byrne’s tone of religiose exhortation is impressively sustained, but it’s the nicely judged visual treatment of his questionable arguments that ultimately makes the book. The text, in English and Spanish, is illustrated by 80 of his photographs, deadpan depictions of objects, surfaces, quirky details – contentment is a plant trimmed into the shape of rabbit, ambition a swarm of ants, hell the empty corner of an office. Byrne calls the pictures ‘software programs for the eye’ and observes that the text is merely a distraction, a device to make you spend longer looking at the images. Byrne asked Dave Eggers, editor and designer of the cult literary magazine McSweeney's, (see Eye no. 35 vol. 9) to design The New Sins. Eggers showed him examples of Bibles in his own collection, and his page designs, each one framed by red and black box rules, have a kind of artless elegance. Headings in italic capitals and various arbitrary key words – ‘better fiction’, ‘invisible to the giver’, ‘hydraulic pipes’ – are picked out in red. Some passages have marginal notes in smaller type similar to those in early Bibles. Where Byrne’s previous book, Your Action World, designed by Stefan Sagmeister, laboured its plasticky ironies in a way that some found too obvious, The New Sins infiltrates the mind with a subtler touch. As an object, it is small enough to carry in the pocket and dip into and to try out, as Byrne himself has done, on people who don’t know he wrote it. From his early collaborations with M&Co, Byrne has made astute use of graphic design, but that doesn’t stop him consigning designers, along with website managers and relief workers, to the upper levels of hell. ‘Their crime? Hubris. Their punishment? Equality. Everyone looks cool, fashionable and absolutely identical – well-dressed, handsome and completely boring. Everything is perfect and unbearable.’ The most appealing thing about The New Sins is the way that it resists definition. Coming from pop music, Byrne has a light touch and few have proved smarter, over the years, in using the medium as a vehicle for diverse artistic ends. You could see The New Sins as an artist’s book but, despite its weighty themes, it has none of the portentousness of the genre and it is easy to buy. It has a real subject, and many self-authored design projects look unfocused and aimless by comparison. During the Valencia biennial, it was placed in hotel rooms, like a Gideon Bible, for new sinners to discover. ‘You are floating and will seek safe harbor,’ writes Byrne

Should I correct my kids when they say they can’t wait to play with Rocky again in Heaven? Tue, Jan. 05, 2010 Feb. 03, 2010 Will there be animals in heaven? By Randy Alcorn Elijah was taken up to heaven in a chariot pulled by horses (2 Kings 2:11). We’re told there are horses in heaven (Revelation 6:2-8; 19:11). In fact, there are lots of horses, enough for the vast armies of heaven to ride (Revelation 19:11; 2 Kings 6:17). Other animals aren’t mentioned in the Revelation passages, presumably because they don’t play a role in Christ’s second coming (an army bringing deliverance rides horses, not Dalmatians or hedgehogs). But isn’t it likely that since there are innumerable horses in heaven there are all kinds of other animals too? Why wouldn’t there be? Why would we expect horses to be the only animals? If there were no other animals, there wouldn’t be horses. In Isaiah 65:17 God refers to creating a New Heavens and a New Earth. In subsequent verses the text seems to move back and forth from the millennial kingdom to the New Earth. God makes clear he will have animals living there–either in the millennium or the New Earth or both (Isaiah 65:25). Some also argue for animals being in heaven based on Ecclesiastes 3:19-21, which says “Man’s fate is like that of the animals...all go to the same place.” However, in the larger context of Ecclesiastes Solomon is simply talking about the outward appearance of death. Men and animals both die and we can’t see where they go. Scripture tells us elsewhere, however, that man has an eternal soul. It tells us he goes one of two places at death. Animals are not said to have eternal souls. They are not said to relocate when they die. The presumption would be that at death they cease to exist. However, this doesn’t mean beloved animals won’t be in heaven. I once read Billy Graham’s response to a little girl’s question, “Will my dog who died this week be in heaven?” Graham replied, “If it would make you any happier, then yes, he will be.” Animals aren’t nearly as valuable as people, but God is their maker and has touched many people’s lives through them. It would be simple for Him to recreate a pet in heaven. I see no reason to believe he wouldn’t if it would bring his children pleasure. Romans 8:18-22 says that the whole creation was subject to suffering and futility because of human sin. The creation groans in longing for the liberation that will come to humans, and thereby to all creation itself. Creation is under man’s dominion and will share the rewards of his redemption just as it shared the punishment for his sin. Animals are a central part of that creation, next to man himself the most significant part. After all, besides his wife, Adam was called upon to give names only to one other part of the creation–the animals (Genesis 2:19-20). He worked the garden, but he wasn’t invited to name the vegetation. Clearly, the animals had certain qualities that set them above other creation. They were to be special to man, and his naming them makes his connection with them personal. If the New Earth is all the best of the old earth and more, then we should expect it to contain animals. If animals weren’t part of the New Earth, this would seem an obvious oversight. Eden was ruined through sin and will be restored through Christ’s reign of righteousness. All that was part of Eden, and then made wrong through the sin of the first Adam, we would expect to be part of the New Earth, made right through the virtue of the Second Adam. Would God take away from us in heaven what he gave, for delight and companionship and help, to Adam and Eve in Eden? Would he revoke his earlier decision to put animals with man, and under man’s care? If he remakes the New Earth with new men (who look very much like the old men, only perfect), wouldn’t we expect him also to make new animals (who will presumably look like the old animals, only perfect)?

Microfilmmaker Magazine - Film Critiques - Final Film Critique: Absentia Final Film Critique: Absentia Director: Mike Flanagan Expected Rating: R for language/violence Distribution: None Yet Budget: $30000 Genre: Horror/Drama Running Time: 91 minutes Release Dates: 2011 Website: http://www.mikeflanaganfilm.com Trailer: Click Here Review Date: December 1, 2010 Reviewed By: Joel G. Robertson Final Score: 10.0 How do we critique films? Click Here To See. Absentia’s story is simple enough. Callie (Katie Parker) is a recovering drug addict who visits her pregnant sister Tricia (Courtney Bell). It’s been seven years since Tricia’s husband Daniel (Morgan Peter Brown) disappeared and Tricia is battling her conscience as she prepares to sign his “Death in Absentia” certificate. Meanwhile, Callie begins to suspect that an ominous narrow tunnel located near Tricia’s house is connected to Daniel’s disappearance. Strange things begin to happen as the sisters deal with issues of grief, faith, and the struggle to make sense out of senseless tragedy. Callie visits her sister Tricia... ...Seven years after Tricia's husband disappeared. Content Let me start by saying that most micro-budget movies usually suffer from one or more of the following maladies: Bad acting Bad direction Bad lighting/camerawork Bad sound Bad editing The one area, however, where every movie, no matter how low the budget, has the potential to excel is in the writing. Unfortunately, far too many filmmakers give their scripts short shrift. This is especially true in a genre I hold near and dear to my heart, horror. You see, far too many filmmakers think that horror is about shocking an audience, disturbing them, “rattling their cages”. But what they ‘re missing is that horror is about ideas, challenging perceptions, showing us a mirror image of our world that has a jagged crack running right through the center of it. And it’s through that crack that the nightmares come... So, how would I describe Absentia? I think the following adjectives sum it up quite nicely: confident, creepy, intelligent, mature, and mesmerizing. And despite a couple lighting issues (see the Visual Look section below), this movie is an example to all micro-filmmakers of what is possible if you have the talent and drive to tell an intelligent story using the resources available to you. I don’t want to give away too much about the story, but I believe everyone (especially horror fans) owes it to themselves to check it out. It’s enough to say that the greatness of the script isn’t what’s explicitly stated or shown, but rather what’s implied. It’s the suggestion of character relationships and dynamics, allowing the audience to fill in the gaps. I was reminded of the Swedish vampire film Let the Right One In, which has a similar character-driven tone to Absentia. Minor Spoilers Ahoy Take for instance Tricia’s pregnancy. When we first meet her and learn that her husband went missing seven years ago, the question arises, “Okay. So, who’s the baby daddy?” Well, through gradual reveals we come to learn that Detective Ryan Mallory (Dave Levine) is the father. Of course, it’s assumed pretty early on that he and Tricia are more than just professionally connected, but Flanagan’s script never spells this out. There are very few expository scenes where characters prattle on and on about what has happened, explaining plot points or motivations through dialogue. No, everything is shown through actions! The first rule of great directing is great casting. Of course, many micro-budget filmmakers don’t have access to the talent pool director Flanagan has (he lives and works in LA). But that’s really just an excuse. Great talent exists everywhere. You just have to be willing to put the work into finding it. Great acting is in the eyes. It’s about an actor disappearing and becoming consumed by the character. Like editing, sound, and other elements, acting should be seamless, never distracting, or drawing attention to itself. It should draw us into the story, not remind us that we’re watching a movie. If the character is “real,” living the experiences on screen, then the actor has done his or her job. This describes the acting across the board in Absentia. But after a chance encounter in a tunnel near Tricia's home... ...Something unexpected rocks the sisters' world . Lead Katie Parker is going to be a star someday. Mark my words. She has that spark, a rare mix of charm, likeability, and sincerity. She’s beautiful, but not in an inaccessible way. Her performance was real, combining toughness and fragility. People are dying for authenticity, and she has it. I sincerely hope she never loses that quality. Likewise, her co-star Courtney Bell is a wonderfully talented actress who delivers a fresh, believable performance as Tricia. She was actually pregnant during the production, which must have made what was an emotionally demanding role all the more difficult. The chemistry between the two leads gave credibility to their relationship; I really believed these two were sisters who had a history together. Other honorable mentions are Morgan Peter Brown as Tricia’s missing husband, Daniel. Despite his limited screen time, his presence is felt throughout the movie. His character provides the emotional core of Absentia and makes the threat of “the thing in the walls” seem very real. Dave Levine (Detective Mallory) and Justin Gordon (Detective Lonergan) play what could have been cop clichés, but instead, created small, real moments that give their characters depth and substance. And, of course, a real coup for the film (and one of the definite advantages to being in the City of Angels) was getting notable character actor Doug Jones for the role of Walter Lambert, a man who disappeared from the neighborhood years earlier. Jones is probably best known for his roles as Abe Sapien in Hellboy 1 and 2 and as the terrifying Fauno and Pale Man in Pan's Labyrinth. He was also in one of the best hours of horror television ever produced, playing one of the Gentlemen in the “Hush” episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. And while Jones is amazing in these creature roles, his brief, but startling appearance in Absentia proves he needs more roles sans makeup. I could go on and on about the actors in this movie. Even actors who appeared in only one or two scenes were memorable and only added to the richness of the story (I’m specifically thinking of James Flanagan as Walter’s son Jamie, Scott Graham as Dr. Elliot, and Ian Gregory and Connie Ventress as Daniel’s parents). Visual Look From a technical perspective, Absentia is nearly flawless. Absentia is directed with a confident, sure hand and credit has to go to the Director of Photography (Rustin Cerveny) as well as director, Flanagan. The shot selection was solid. Unique angles and differing perspectives created a feeling of unease throughout the film; however, these choices never felt awkward or forced. Solid camera direction is essential to telling an effective visual story. A poorly-composed shot or violation of the 180-degree-rule can pull an audience right out of the story, leaving them feeling disengaged and unsatisfied with the experience. Absentia, thankfully, never suffers from this avoidable misstep. There were, however, a few technical issues (I did say nearly flawless after all). In a few shots, characters were backlit in a doorway or in front of a large, living room window, their faces cast in silhouette. This wasn’t horribly distracting; it just felt like it was more the result of limited lighting (i.e. budgetary restraints) rather than specific artistic choices. An example of where violating this backlighting “rule” worked to Absentia’s advantage was when Callie is jogging through that ominous tunnel. Several shots show her at the far end of the tunnel, out-of-focus in the background, silhouetted against a blinding white blaze of daylight. This created an ethereal, otherworldly feel and was perfect for evoking a sense of the disjointed and alien nature of the tunnel itself. After a night of terror... ..Callie must convince her sister about the tunnel. Speaking of the tunnel, it made for a perfect location and is a great example of writing your script around what you have access to. As I understand it, director Flanagan came up with the story of Absentia as a way to feature this creepy tunnel, which is located near his home. Too often, and I’m guilty of this myself, micro-filmmakers don’t consider what they have access to and can use for free. This is essential if your film is going to get made. The only other problem, from a technical perspective that I noticed was some vignetting around the edges of the frame in a few shots. This was especially evident in one scene that occurs late into the film. It involved two characters in Tricia’s house being stalked by the creature (I don’t want to go into too many specifics for risk of spoiling the film). The scene in questions was so taut with suspense, well-acted, and perfectly cut together that, to be perfectly honest, I didn’t even notice the vignetting until my second viewing. The special effects in Absentia are understated and never distract from the story. At the end of the day, this is a monster movie. It reminded me of Guillermo Del Toro’s Mimic in regards to the central creature (although the thing is never fully revealed). Of course, tonally, the movie has more in common with Del Toro’s Cronos. Truth is, if you’re a gorehound, you’re going to be left wanting. But I hope most who read this, while maybe aficionados of splatter can appreciate a great story, well told, despite the lack of the red stuff. Use of Audio The audio levels were clear and consistent throughout Absentia. Dialogue was never muddy and all Foley and sound effects were so well integrated into the overall sound design as to pass unnoticed (as it should be). The musical score by Ryan David Leack was subtle and effective at setting the tone; however, it was a little overused for my tastes. There were several scenes where the music was meant to heighten the tension, but the actors are so good, I think they could have carried the scene without assistance. For example, take the scene between Tricia and Detective Mallory in the car. He’s trying to convince her of his commitment and the music felt heavy handed, trying too hard to drive home the emotional importance of the scene. That being said, I can definitely see how the music was used to bridge the scene in the car with the suspenseful scene it was juxtaposed with, so file this criticism under “personal preferences”. And when the police search for answers... ...Callie realizes she's the only one who can find them. Use of Budget The budget for Absentia was raised through crowd funding on Kickstarter.com, a fantastic site for no- and low-budget filmmakers to raise the funds needed for their projects. The original budget for Absentia, as listed on Kickstarter, was $15,000, but after the 30 day funding drive, the filmmakers had exceeded that amount, raising over $25,000! I highly recommend going to their Kickstarter page (http://thefivedrive.blogspot.com), reading their pitch to potential donors, and watching all the promo videos they put together. The videos are hilarious (nothing is more appealing than truly talented people who can make fun of themselves) and show what’s possible with a little imagination and clever selling techniques. As to how the money was used, I think all the movie’s donors got their money’s worth. Using a Canon 5D Mark II, Flanagan and his DP, Cerveny, were able to create a cinematic look using primarily available light. And while the Canon is able to capture a nice depth of field for that extra “movie look”, this technique wasn’t overused. Along with the Canon, money was spent on a camera package that included a 35mm Lens adapter, Steadicam, Glidecam, and a homemade DSLR rig. Additionally, a third of the budget went to that most important of areas—sound. The money was spent on both production and post-production sound, and it goes without saying (although I’m about to) that a film can only benefit from great sound. A movie with subpar images (see Paranormal Activity or The Blair Witch Project), but excellent sound can win over an audience. However, if the reverse is true, and the movie has great images but crappy sound, you’ll lose your audience every time. Besides camera and sound, the budget also included location permits and another important category craft services. I know, I know. We seem to drive this point home a lot here at MicroFilmmaker, but that’s because many of us have either worked on a set where the only available grub included stale bagels and questionable cream cheese, or made the near-tragic mistake of not feeding those good folks who so generously gave of their free time to help us on our projects. Lasting Appeal So, will Absentia stand the test of time? Will others want to view it again and again? While those who really like their horror dripping with goo and spew will be disappointed, I think anyone who appreciates subtle, creeping, quiet, character-driven horror will be very satisfied. This movie isn’t just for horror fans, mind you. No, anyone who appreciates great storytelling, acting, and that good ‘ol indie-filmmaking spirit will most certainly enjoy it too. Overall Comment Absentia is a creepy, subtle, old-school horror movie, and personally, I loved it. I still can’t get over how good all the actors were. I was completely drawn into the story; not just the first time I watched it, but the second time as well. It’s a slow burn, for sure, but it was refreshing to see a filmmaker show the maturity, confidence, and restraint that’s on display here. I realize much of the “restraint” was due to budgetary limitations, but all the choices felt like artistic ones. While I have yet to watch Flanagan’s earlier works (at least at the time of this writing), Absentia makes me eager to check them out. All involved deserve high praise for their contributions to such a fine example of micro-filmmaking excellence! FULL DISCLOSURE: Mike Flanagan has written for MicroFilmmaker Magazine in the past. As recently as last issue as a matter of fact. You can read his “behind-the-scenes” article on the production of Absentia here. However, he only began writing for MFM after two of his films were given Best of Show awards. I was chosen to critique Mike’s latest effort because I had no previous relationship with him. He paid for a full, impartial critique and that’s exactly what he received.

It was September 10th, 2006....12:02 pm CST. This moment in time was better known as the 2006 Opening Kickoff. And on the field for the Rams were.... WR 81 T.Holt LT 76 O.Pace LG 68 R.Incognito C 67 A.McCollum RG 62 A.Timmerman RT 70 A.Barron TE 82 J.Klopfenstein WR 80 I.Bruce QB 10 M.Bulger FB 31 P.Smith RB 39 S.Jackson Defense LE 91 L.Little UT 97 L.Glover NT 73 J.Kennedy RE 95 T.Hargrove SLB 54 B.Chillar MLB 51 W.Witherspoon WLB 50 P.Tinoisamoa LCB 22 Tr.Fisher RCB 34 F.Brown FS 21 O.Atogwe SS 25 C.Chavous In a perfect world, those same individuals would be on the field 16 weeks later as well. However, we all know injuries are as much a part of football as the football itself. It's going to happen. Even now, some of these names are not on the field, nor will they be until 2007. So, let's extrapolate the injury issue into a full blown Greek tragedy. What happens if we lose EVERY starter? What does the team look like? Join me in this walk through hell, will you? Skill Positions QB - Ferrotte - Is he a starter? Absolutely not. However, Linehan has enough faith in him to keep him in his pocket in Minny and Miami. Can he handle a game or two yea, but an extended stay in the pocket could get ugly. RB - Committee - If S. Jack goes down, there is no feature back left on the roster. Davis used to be, but no longer. Fisher never was, never will be. I'm not fond of committees, but used properly these two together may move the ball better than expected FB - Hedgecock - With Smith out, this is where we stand now. The kid is still young, and learning his 2nd NFL offense in as many years. But once he's comfortable, this kid will be a wrecking ball. He won't carry the ball, nor do we want him to. He does one thing and does it well.....lead block. Receivers WR - Curtis & McDonald - It's just not fair in this case. Both these guys are quality wideouts and would start on a lot of other teams. So I have no problem with them as starting wideouts. The problem I have is the dropoff from Holt/Bruce to Curtis/McDonald. C & D are more than servicable.....but when is the last time "servicable" ever passed muster when referring to a Rams wideout? TE - Walker - He was impressive in his limited time. I don't think he's the pass catching threat of Klop, but I love his blocking skills. He would do a fine job, assuming Linehan adapts to the differences between Klop and Walker O-Line OT - Steussie/Strojny - Here's where it turns ugly. Other than Pace and Barron, there's only one other OT on the roster, Steussie. So now we have to dip into the practice squad with Strojny. The only thing that keeps me from sweating bullets on this one is because in this scenario Bulger is already hurt. They can't hurt him twice. OG - Goldberg/Setterstom - This spot has already seen plenty of flux this year, but assuming day 1 starters (RI & AT) are out, I don't have a huge problem with Goldberg and Setterstrom. Goldberg is proving himself now, and I think Setterstrom is better than a typical 7th round rookie. Wouldn't want to leave with them forever, but I like the OG position better than the OT position in this one. OC - Incognito - Again assuming day 1 starter (McCollum)....oh wait, no need to assume. This one is reality and will be the rest of the year. Personally, I'm all for it. I think RI is doing a great job adapting to the spot, and I'd like to see him stay there. D-Line DE - Adeyanju/Green - Vic is already getting his time and proving to be solid in the run game. His pass rush hasn't shown itself yet, but maybe that's around the corner. Green is green....high motor, all-effort...but nothing spectacular. DT - Fisk/Wroten - After preseason, I was very excited to see what Wroten was going to bring. Apparently, the coaching staff has yet to share my thoughts. For now, Wroten still has that "potential" albatross around his neck. As for Fisk, solid veteran who is doing a decent job of sucking up linemen to open holes for blitzers. Linebackers SLB - Smith - I'm not going to lose much sleep over this one. Chillar has not been everything I hoped for, and Smith could do just as well in my opinion. MLB - Brooks - The preseason phenom. Can he translate that to the regular season? I'm guessing no, but as with the WR spot, he's backing up today's icon, so Brooks won't get a fair shake if he has to take over. WLB - Coakley - From what we've seen so far, DC has returned to a younger form. He's playing both the run and especially the pass pretty well, when he's in. If he had to take over for Pisa, I'd certainly miss Pisa, but DC would be effective Defensive Backs Corner - Hill/Butler - Hill will still make rookie mistakes, but his time to start is right around the corner. Butler on the other hand must not be right, either physically or mentally. Can Butler come back to form? If so, I don't have a problem with him and Hill at the corners FS - Bartell - A huge question mark. I'm pretty certain Bartell will not be as comfortable as Atogwe is at this point, simply from lack of experience, but Bartell has all the physical and mental tools to be a decent centerfielder, at least comparable to Atogwe. SS - Carter - I can't get excited about Carter, especially following Chavous. There's no doubting his work ethic or how much effort he displays, but his coverage skills make him look more and more like a small LB rather than an effective SS. However, he has more experience than most on this list, so who's to say? So, would this team make it happen? Probably not, but then again I'm not convinced the 1st string will take us to the promised land either. I'd feel okay about our offense with the exception of OT, and that's a bad spot to be uncomfortable about when talking about moving the ball. On the defense, the pass rush would be non-existent, so I'm afraid opposing QBs would pick us apart like fish in a barrel. THIS WAS A TEST OF THE EMERGENCY BROADCASTING SYSTEM. HAD THIS BEEN A REAL EMERGENCY YOU WOULD HAVE NOTIFIED OF WHICH NEAREST DOOR TO GO SLAM YOUR HEAD IN WHILE WAITING FOR THE SEASON TO END AND STARTERS TO GET HEALTHY. WE NOW RETURN YOU TO YOUR REGULARLLY SCHEDULED SEASON.

Roomi, N.W. Roomi, M. Rath and A. NiedzwieckiDr. Rath Research Institute, Cancer Division, Santa Clara, CA 95050 Presented at: 23rd Annual Fanconi Anemia Research Fund Scientific Symposium, Barcelona, Spain, October 20-23, 2011. Published in: Proceedings of the 23rd Annual Fanconi Anemia Research Fund Scientific Symposium, page 139. Abstract Objective: Fanconi Anemia (FA), an autosomal recessive disease associated with chromosomal instability, is characterized by progressive bone marrow failure, birth defects and high propensity to develop malignancies. Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) and acute myeloid leukemia are the major causes of mortality and morbidity in FA patients. The objective of this study was to investigate the antineoplastic activity of NM, a novel antineoplastic nutrient mixture (containing lysine, proline, ascorbic acid and green tea extract) that demonstrates a broad spectrum of antitumor activity against a number of human cancer cell lines, on human FAHNSCC in vitro and in vivo. Methods and Materials: Human FAHNSCC cell line OHSU-974 (Fanconi Anemia Research Fund, Oregon Health & Science University, Portland, Oregon, USA) was cultured in RPMI medium supplemented with 20% FBS and antibiotics. At near confluence, cells were treated in triplicate with different concentrations of NM: 0, 50, 100, 250, 500 and 1000 μg/ml. Cells were also treated with PMA to induce MMP-9 activity. Cell proliferation was detected by MTT assay, secretion of MMPs by gelatinase zymography, invasion through Matrigel and morphology by H&E staining. In vivo, athymic male nude mice (n=12) were inoculated with 3x106 OHSU-974 cells subcutaneously and randomly divided into two groups: group A was fed a regular diet and group B a regular diet supplemented with 1% NM. Four weeks later, the mice were sacrificed and their tumors were excised, weighed and processed for histology. Results: NM inhibited the growth of OHSU-974 tumor by 48% and tumor burden by 50%. At lower concentrations, NM demonstrated no effect on proliferation, but at 1000 μg/ml showed 40% toxicity. Zymography revealed MMP-2 and PMA-induced MMP-9 secretion. NM suppressed secretion of both MMPs in a dose-dependent manner, with virtual inhibition at 500 μg/ml. NM inhibited OHSU-974 invasion through Matrigel in a dose-dependent fashion with total block at 1000 μg/ml. H&E staining showed no morphological changes below 500 μg/ml. Conclusions:The results suggest that NM has potential therapeutic use in the treatment of human FA HNSCC. Comment Current treatment methods for Fanconi Anemia-associated cancers are generally ineffective. Thus, there is a need for development of effective therapeutic agents for these cancers with minimal toxicity. Our studies demonstrated that NM significantly inhibited the growth and tumor burden of FA HNSCC cell line OHSU-974 in vivo. In addition, invasive parameters, such as OHSU-974 cell line MMP-2 and -9 secretion and invasion were significantly inhibited by NM in vitro. These findings suggest potential of NM

PAUL, Minn. - The Golden Bear women's basketball team has jumped out to a great start this season, 6-0 overall and 2-0 in NSIC play and can build a true name for themselves this weekend. They head out on the road for games against Minnesota, Crookston (3-4, 1-1 NSIC) and an undefeated MSU Moorhead squad this Friday and Saturday, with tip-off times of 6:00 pm both nights. This is the last NSIC action of the 2009 calendar year, with three non-conference games scheduled over the holidays. VIEW COMPLETE RELEASE - WATCH LIVE - LIVE STATS Concordia will have to be focused and prepared for both games this weekend. Minnesota, Crookston is a different team than they have been in the past, taking a non-conference win from Winona State, a league win over Bemidji State and forcing Minnesota Duluth into an overtime period. They have been able to put up plenty of points, but the Golden Bears hope their fast offense will overpower UMC's defense. MSU Moorhead is neck-and-neck with Concordia in receiving points for the national poll but not yet taking in a top-25 ranking. Both squads will aim to keep their season undefeated on Saturday night. The Dragons look much different than the Golden Bears, with the majority of their scoring and defense coming from post players. CU and MSUM are the NSIC's two leading points-scorers, the Golden Bears using speed and guards to score and the Dragons bumping and forcing their hand down low with their bigs. MSUM leads the NSIC in rebounding and has used shot blocking to stifle opponent shooting, limiting them to 30.1%. Concordia hopes to attack MSUM before they have a chance to use their posts, expecting a full court press and on-ball pressure to take the advantage in the game. Guard Jineen Williams (Jr., Racine, Wis.) is the top averaging scorer for Concordia so far this season. She averaged 18.0 points and 4.5 rebounds per game while shooting 50% from the field last weekend and has a team high 16.7 ppg this year. Guard Maurika Hickman (Jr., Minneapolis, Minn.) has also had a strong few weeks, now averaging 13.8 ppg. Jamie Jones (Sr., Mounds View, Minn.), also a guard, is the team's third-leading scorer with 12.3 ppg. Jones

The Medical Leader » Eastern KY counties developing multi-county trail system The Medical Leader Home Home > Community News, Uncategorized > Eastern KY counties developing multi-county trail system Eastern KY counties developing multi-county trail system November 18th, 2011 ECO ECONOMY: Eastern Kentucky communities are joining forces to develop a trail system through several counties. Neighboring West Virginia communities are already seeing benefits from development of the Hatfield and McCoy Trail System, which attracts thousands of tourists and generates millions in revenue each year. This photo was taken during the 2011 Trailfest in Gilbert, W.Va. PIKEVILLE – Counties throughout eastern Kentucky plan to boost the economy by developing and promoting adventure tourism activities. Big Sandy Area Development Director Sandy Runyon, who has worked with local leaders to establish trail systems in eastern Kentucky for a number of years, reports that officials in Breathitt, Clay, Knott, Leslie, Bell, Letcher, Perry, Owsley and Harlan counties have worked together for quite some time to develop a trail system that would attract ATV riders, horse enthusiasts, hikers and others into eastern Kentucky. Runyon explained that those counties have entered into an interlocal agreement regarding the trail system, with the understanding that each county is responsible for trail development and maintenance in their counties. Officials in these counties also agree that counties would assist each other with maintenance or other issues on neighboring properties, with the understanding that counties won't be billed for that service and with goal of eventually connecting all trails together in one large system. The Pike County Fiscal Court is the first of several Big Sandy area counties to become a part of the initiative by passing a resolution to join the multi-county effort during a Nov. 1 meeting. Although Pike county officials talked about developing a trail system to mimic the successful Hatfield-McCoy ATV Trail system in West Virginia, Runyon believes the interlocal agreement, once it is finalized, will encompass all types of trails and trail-based activities. The first step is for Fiscal Courts in those counties to pass a resolution stating the county's intent on participating. Thereafter, county attorneys will hash out a finalized interlocal agreement that suits the needs of all counties. The Big Sandy ADD is currently preparing resolutions for other Big Sandy counties. “I'm not sure how many counties will sign on,” Runyon said. “But we know that Pike, Floyd, Magoffin and Martin counties are interested and we expect that Johnson County will also be interested. Our goal is to have any kind of agreement they enter into to include all trails.” Once the interlocal agreement between the counties is finalized, Runyon said it is likely that individual counties will be responsible for obtaining land-use permits from residents, which could be a “huge endeavor” in counties like Pike County, where officials have identified 200 property owners along one potential trail route. Runyon said the biggest issue in connecting eastern Kentucky trails is the liability that property owners face when they allow the public to come onto their property. There has been some effort at the state level to pass legislation to ease the property liability burden, but the state's tort law, allowing people to sue for various reasons, may prevent further success of that effort. One bill passed the House last year, but it died without a vote in the Senate. Runyon said the laws enacted by the legislature show progress. “I do think there is a way around all of this if everybody can work together, and they truly do work together, and try to add all the needs of everybody involved,” she said. “I think we can make some progress.” Areas like Harlan, Bell, Knott Leslie and Knott counties found ways around the liability issues and are able to market trails and host large-scale trail events because a large corporate landowner or private landowners with large, usable tracks of property provided a long-term lease to the county. “Bell County is the new kid on the block,” Runyon said. “There was a company there that leased 7,600 acres to the county. They held an ATV event there three weeks ago that attracted 3,000 riders. So, it's possible to do this.” Runyon said the local residents contacted by the Big Sandy ADD have reported that they are excited about the potential. “The only resistance we see is the unknown,” she said. “If every county develops a block of property and show the locals that it will work, that people will come in here to ride these trails and there is economic benefit to that, then I think local landowners will want to get involved.” She is asking all counties to assess properties that might be available for trail development. The multi-county coalition will make the region more eligible to receive multi-county coal severance tax funds and grant funding for trail development projects, Runyon explained. “We truly believe here that tourism will be an economic development engine,” Runyon said. “It won't be the only engine, but it will be a major economic tool for this region.” Share and Enjoy: Author: admin Categories: Community News, Uncategorized Tags: Comments are closed.

Nothing special sets them apart but maybe they are a little bit better in marketing than their peers. For example Philips invented so many wonderful all the goodies, all best chips, mechanisms, etc and they don't have even 10 % of TEAC reputation. Maybe it is the VRDS thing - every hifi rag devoted countless pages explaining the principle of very rigid disc clamping system - how the pressure clamping disc "prevents the CD from vibrations" but in other players nothing prevents the vibrations and yet they still manage to play well. So to me it seems like TEAC created an antidote to a non existent poison, and then they sold the whole concept as their key differenciator and they had to invent the poison. Clever people. Anyway, they took the stock, middle of the range SONY mechanism KSS151A (like in Sony CDP227ESD player) and added a large puck on top of it. Is it good or bad - I dunno, but it looks positively hitech. To be able to sell the story even better - in this VRDS 25 player (they named the player after the mechanism name - see how important the plastic puck is to their marketing? Sortof like calling a car Turbo.) they made the face plate of 10 mm solid aluminium and everything is oh-so-heavy. To my big surprise - the main PCB is REALLY a very nice one. Almost like in Copland. Premium parts, audio grade electrolytes, very very neat auto-CAD of PCB layout, fully differential balanced topology and OH MY GOD - the AD1862 super duper chip. What a rare DAC. A white raven. To be found only in world's best players, like for example in the best denon - the 2560. This DAC has current output (the better, more kosher type) and it can be lampized with R conversion. I used 570 Ohms which I had on hand. I quickly cut the leg 11 of the chip from the PCB track (I mean I cut the track leading from leg 11 to next parts - 4 opamps in a row per phase.) I wired the now freely floating leg 11 to lampizator leg 7 and then from leg 7 to leg 9 - a resistor of 570 Ohms. Surprisingly this player has balanced outputs. Lampization is possible as SE ( RCA) and balanced XLR at the same time. I quite like plain and simple face plates like this one. The only minor reservation in this player rating is it's very slow drawer. Golden drawer in black player. Hmmmm..... Great PCB - neat, simple, beautiful - everything is first class. Hats off. ASD-Audiotuning company from Germany offers upgrade replacement chips for these two suckers on the picture's right - the demodulator and the upsampler- NPC and the AD1893. The better parts from Mr. Andreas (we paid some 100 Euro plus) are 24/192 compatible and the DAC is a 20 bit one. The clock is not typical - 18 ,xx meg. The upgrade allows to squeeze the max from the 1862 DAC. It took me 10 minutes do de solder and solder the upgrade. I suspect that 1862 is the same as Burr Brown 1702. Something is telling me .... Enter Analog Devices AD1862 N-J DAC chip Four DAC chips in a row. Mmmmmmm. Nice. One per channel per phase. They go like this from bottom of the photo : L-, L+, R+, L-. I took the signal from the inner pair. Please ignore the most right yellow wire - my mistake (left channel phase neg). Top-most blue wire is the earth. Test hookup of the lampizator. (traces are cut underneath the board to free float the leg 11 of each DAC, so it is not innocent kind of reversible test.) After good result from the test, I went for full lampization, internal tubes, one per channel in anode follower mode - four triodes creating balanced XLR outputs and RCA single ended too. I started by removing the main PCB and installing Trichord 4 clock. Below you see the crystal, two caps and a resistor that had to be removed (18 meg crystal, not typical 16 meg.) The new clock connects to the legs 1 of the 74HCU04 chip (signal) and leg 7th - GND (see red lines). The VRDS level two (middle) with composite bridge and cast alloy clamp flywheel. Much much better than the ugly cheap level 1 CMK4 mechanism from TEAC T1 (CD7) Laser assembly and pickup is Sony KSS151A on magnetic rails - again - very decent laser. I simply love that PCB As you see - this player has a transformer with dual primaries - 230 and 120 VAC. Good for all continents. The XLRs and RCAs are so good quality that they do not need to be replaced. They can stay. The power supply section houses a nice, big, potted and encapsulated transformer. Very nice. There is provision for 230/120 selection. The raw supplies and rectifiers are heavy duty, oversized, and (whatever that means) - FOR AUDIO. In my opinion that is BS because a cap can be either good or bad, but FOR AUDIO means nothing. Just marketing buzzword. You see the AUDIO caps and my new bolt for holding the transformer of lampizator. This is empty space under the main PCB where all my new power supplies and filters will be located. New transformer installed. I had two secondaries of 110 VAC so I used them in dual mono config. A tube (two triodes) in balanced mode is ideally supplied from ons ingle source. If positive signal causes one tube to draw current MORE, the negative impulse causes the other half to draw EQUALLY LESS. Summary current demand is CONSTANT and this is very good. This is main AC cable of TEAC with added parasitic Lampizator brown twisted pair that is transformer primary. This way the Lampizator is connected AFTER the switch, after filter of AC noise and after fuses as well. In the central section of the player where the mechanism is located - there is additional large power supply section with 4 gigantic caps and some other stuff. So the main PCB gets very good power. Above you see the SPDIF digitall output section. There is no transformer for signal (good) and there is TOSLINK as well to the left. It makes overall a nice transport, should you EVER want a DAC better than internal AD1862. The Lampizator power supplies are getting glued and wired together. On the right - 12 V DC, on the left hand side - two high voltage anode supplies (CRC filters and integrated bridges. This is the resistor kit that goes on the socket. Two Cathode resistors of 200 Ohms and two grid resistors of 240K. The twisted end becomes system ground. Lampizator circuit ready to go. Anode resistors are mounted away on anode supply caps output. This makes the triode socket less congested. Above: all power supplies are glued to the floor under the main PCB. the long black thing is the power switch extension rod. Dark red resistors connected to red wires are anode resistors in anode follower setup. The tubes were mounted above main PCB after I removed the analog output stage - 8 op-amps and their capacitors. There was enough space for 2 tubes. Red wires go to anodes of triodes. All grounds are connected together in star fashion: both tube grounds, RCA's, XLRs, anode supply ground, heater ground and main PCB ground. XLR and RCA inputs were floated from the PCB and freed. Clock was powered from now un-used OPAMP supply of plus 12V DC (on the copper rail.) SOUND of TEAC VRDS-25 The sound is right there with the top players. League zero - which stands for no compromise, best CD playback under the sun. It is not a winner, but definitely in the same league as the best ones I tried. The sound is overall the safest all rounder. Not as goose bump magical midrange timbre as the TDA1541 players, not as thunderous superbass as Wolfson, not as crystal clear trebles as Lampucera DAC CS4397, and not as deep deep hallucination as from BB-1794 of the Shanling CD300. But it has no flaws or faults. Very highly recommended. The tube: Russian 6H2P (6N2P) with SRPP and 200 Ohms in both cathodes. ECC88 and E88CC works great as well. 2 days later: a very enlightening listening session with a comparison between Audionote DAC 2 signature (2 x PCM63) driven by TEAC as a transport versus TEAC lampized. As good as the Audio-Note DAC2 is, the Teac VRDS-25 walks over it. The amount of hidden information that TEAC pulls from very familiar recordings is just unbelievable. At the same time it is more powerful, more spacious, and with stronger bass, which is is controlled and powerful. My admiration for the application of the AD-1862 grows. I like equally well the DENON DCD2560 The Teac is better built, but DENON

CSC Community Mock Draft: The New England Patriots Select... by Dave Cariello on Apr 20, 2009 6:00 AM CDT in 2009 CSC Community Mock Draft Tweet 3 comments Email Print This pick and analysis was written by CSC member Hustl504. Thank you, once again, for your participation! Jenkins slips all the way to the 23rd spot after the Saints passed him up. (Photo Source) With the twenty-third pick in the Canal Street Chronicles community mock draft, the ew England Patriots select... Malcolm Jenkins, CB, Ohio State Here at CSC, we are all familiar with Jenkins. He's been at the top of our draft boards for the past couple years. He's got the size and ability to succeed in the NFL. I don't feel the need to elaborate on that. We like him. We want him. But in case you forgot, diehardbermysaints made a great FanPost enumerating the 3 reasons to pick Jenkins.Some may argue LB is the Patriots most pressing need. However, with Maualuga and Cushing off the board, I don't believe the Pats should reach for Lauranitis, Matthews, or Sintim at this point. Each one of them would fill a nice need for the Pats; Lauranitis with the leadership, Matthews with the pass rush, and Sintim with the experience in the 3-4. Despite this, one of them should still be available when the Pats pick again at #34, making Jenkins a better value for this pick. Aside from that, a nucleus of Mayo and Adalius Thomas is still serviceable when surrounded by midlevel talent. I don't really see the Patriots going any other direction here. Their offense is solid. The top OL prospects are gone. Their pass rush and defensive line could use some work, but I think that need would be better fulfilled later this draft. So, this pick came to the man us Saints fans have longed for since Jason David first stepped on the field in black and gold. It's a damn shame I had to give him to the Patriots.

Planning Board Meeting Minutes 2006 Link back to department page Minutes June 26, 2006Regular MeetingPlanning Board Agenda for Monday, June 26, 2006 Scheduled:7:00 PM 36 Talbot Road Proposed 3-Lot Subdivision8:00 PM South Shore Baptist Church, 20 Free Street Continuation of Public Hearing - Special Permit A-3: Parking Determination9:00 PM 309 Whiting-Request for Lot Release 9:15 PM Viking Lane-Request for Extension to 8/1/07Central Meeting Room North Present: Planning Board Members, Susan Murphy, Chair, Paul Healey, Clerk, Tod McGrath and Judy Sneath. Also present was Planner Katharine Lacy. Ms. Murphy opened the public meeting at 7:00 P.M. at the Hingham Town Hall. RE: 36 Talbot Road Proposed 3-Lot Subdivision Present for the applicant: Robert Devin, Attorney, and Al Trakimas engineer, SITEC. Ms. Murphy started the meeting by stating that following material was requested and has not yet been submitted. 1. Title Information on 36 Talbot from Attorney Robert Devin and review by Hingham Town Counsel2. Detailed grading plans showing a blow-up of the area adjacent to the Fee's driveway3. Report from the Board of Health Mr. Devin stated that he would provide the title information as soon as possible, and Al Trakimas noted that he had just received a draft plan showing the detailed grading around the Fee's property. Ms. Lacy explained that plans were submitted to the Board of Health on April 21, but the applicant has not submitted the required $3,000 review fee so no review has taken place. The law states that the Board of Health has 45 days to review the plan, which expired at the beginning of June. The Board of Health, however, states that the application period had not yet begun, because the application without the fee was not complete. Mr. Brogna identified the following five waivers that the applicant was requesting, as outlined in his letter dated June 26, 2006: 1. The proposed roadway construction will extend the length of Simmons more than 800'. The Planning Board Rules and Regulations state in Section 4, Design Standards, B (4) (a) that a dead-end street shall not be longer than 800' in length.2. Hingham Zoning By-Law, Section 111-C Flood Plan and Watershed Protection District, paragraph 2.a. - "no building.shall be created." It would appear that the proposed location of the dwelling on Lot 1 falls within the 10' MSL contour. The applicant should review Lot 2 for this issue, as well.3. Hingham Planning Board Rules and Regulations, Section 4, paragraph C (3) (b) "manhole inlet and outlet inverts shall be at the same elevation".4. Hingham Planning Board Rules and Regulations, Section 4, paragraph D (Open Drainage Systems) "in no case shall side slopes in disturbed areas be greater than twenty-five (25) percent 4H:IV". It would appear that there are areas on the plans that exceed this 25%.5. Hingham Planning Board Rules & Regulations, Section 4, paragraph C (3) (g) "Where the Planning Board determines that the public interest and the best interest of the Town and the subdivision will be served by extension of the drainage system outside the boundaries of the subdivision, the Planning Board may required the Applicant, at his own expense, to continue the layout and construction of the drainage system.". The extension of the Rice Road drainage system is the issue. The proposed extension of the piping at the end of Rice Road into a stone swale would require a waiver here. Ms. Murphy asked the Board to consider, given the waivers that the applicant was requesting, whether they were willing to proceed with the hearing and hear the applicant's full presentation. Board members agreed to continue the hearing. Al Trakimas provided an overview of the proposed roadway drainage, which would include traditional subsurface pipes leading to two catch basins at the throat of the cu-de sac. Water would flow from the basins into two Vortechnics units and through a series of stepped manholes, ultimately discharging at the wetlands below. Roadwork would begin at the two existing catch basins on Simmons Road, where the applicant proposed to saw cut and match the existing pavement. The roadway would slope down to the west at approximately 8% grade, flattening out at the cul-de-sac to 3%. The cul-de-sac would be 120' in width. A 4" water line would be hooked up to the existing 2" water line on Simmons Road. A new hydrant would be located in the cul-de-sac, serving this new portion of Simmons Road. Mr. Trakimas said that they had looked into the possibility of looping the water line at Rice Road, but that Aquarion Water co. had indicated that this would not be possible. Mr. Trakimas acknowledged that the project design included several side slopes which exceeded that maximum 2:1 slope. He pointed out, however, that if you just looked at the construction of the roadway, and not the adjacent lots, that the extent of excessive side slopes was greatly reduced. The actual house locations shown on the plans were conceptual in nature, when in fact they could be placed in other locations. Board members questioned the logic behind taking this approach towards the review of the project, and Mr. Devin responded that "you have to start somewhere" in terms of project approval. Paul Healey asked if this would mean that house foundations would have to be built into the fill put in place to create the elevation for the roadway. Mr. Trakimas responded that it might. Paul Healey asked what the downside of the proposed "stepped manholes" would be in terms of the functionality of the drainage system. Al responded that this type of stepped system is common for sewer systems. Susan Murphy asked Paul Brogna to look into this and report back at the next meeting. Al Trakimas finished up by stating that utility companies had all been contacted, and had provided their preliminary approval of the plans. Judy Sneath asked whether the construction of the roadway would impact the single family lot owned by D'Allesandro on the south side of Simmons Road adjacent to the proposed subdivision. Mr. Trakimas responded that the grading for the roadway would cut into this property. Ms. Sneath expressed concern about the quality of the filled soil on that lot. Paul Brogna was instructed to look into industry standards for the type of soil permitted for side slopes. Judy Sneath and Paul Healey asked why this lot was not part of the subdivision. Mr. Devin explained that it would be a legal Form A lot should the road be extended. Tod McGrath asked about the quantity of fill that would be required to build this project. Mr. Trakimas responded that if the house lots were to be built it would require 7000 cubic yards of cut and 17000 cubic yards of fill. To bring in the fill would require 400-600 dump trucks of fill to be brought to the site. For just the roadway to be built it would require 2,300 cubic yards of cut, and 7,000 cubic yards of fill, or a net of 5,000 cubic yards of fill (200-400 dump trucks). He explained that a staging area would be created to the dump trucks to turn around. Susan Murphy pointed out that if houses were to be built on these lots they would require a variance from the height by-law in that the bottom of the basement slab would be more than five feet above the existing grade. She pointed out that subdivisions can be denied if they assume noncompliance with zoning. Tod McGrath asked why the developer would want to proceed with this project when they might only get to develop one lot. Susan Murphy asked if they could build the project without the waivers. Al Trakimas responded that it would be very difficult, but that it could be done using extensive retaining walls. Susan reiterated her concern about how the Fee's property would be impacted by the extension of Simmons Road, and pointed out that the Subdivision Control specifically states that new subdivisions linking to existing subdivisions cannot damage or harm the properties on the existing roadways. Abutters expressed concern about the impacts of construction on the neighborhood during construction including truck traffic and noise, damage to a public way, disruption and removal of potentially toxic materials, and difficulty for emergency access. The hearing was continued to July 24 at 8:00 PM. RE: South Shore Baptist Church, 20 Free Street Continuation of Public Hearing - Special Permit A-3: Parking Determination Present for the applicant: Robert Pomereine, Attorney and Brad Warner, President of the Board of Elders. This was a continuation of a hearing initiated on June 13, 2006. The applicant is currently applying for a Special Permit A-3 (parking determination) in connection with a change of use of the property at 20 Free Street from a residence to church offices. The applicant is requesting 1) a determination under Section V-A that the applicant may provide all parking required for 20 Free Street at 578 Main Street, with the exception of handicapped access parking, and 2) a determination that the proposed use of the property at 20 Free will NOT intensify the church use (and thus the required parking for the property as a whole), as the church contests that the new office space will simply replace operations that will be housed at 20 Free are already in existence in the church and 3) approval of the Site Plan showing modifications to the property at 20 Free Street. Ms. Murphy opened the hearing by noting that letters had been received by Pat MacAllen and Jim MacAllen expressing concern with the proposed use of 20 Free Street for church office use. Ms. Murphy also followed up with a report from Ms. Lacy regarding past Special Permits issued for the church indicating that there were no conflicts between the request currently before the Board and existing permits. She noted that the when the church received a parking determination in 1987 indicating that 150 parking spaces was sufficient, and that they now have 175 spaces. While the church population may have increased, in terms of how parking needs are required (by number of seats and square footage of office/classroom use) the church still complied with this original determination. Brad Warner presented the revised site plan showing a pervious paved walkway located approximately 25' from the western property line, and vegetative screening on the western property boundary with the adjacent house. He explained that screening was not put in on the other side due to the presence of existing vegetation and the fact that the garage for the abutting property was located right on the property line blocking views. Mr. Warner reiterated that the use of the building did not represent an increase in the intensity of use at the church, but simply a relocation of uses from the church building to 20 Free Street. Abutter Mary Ellen McCabe noted that she wanted screening along the entire length of her property. At 8:45 Paul Healey made a motion to close the hearing, and vote to issue the Special Permit A3 with conditions. Tod McGrath seconded the motion and all approved. The Board began deliberations on the proposed conditions to the permit. Board members agreed that the request for relief from the requirements of the parking by-law was appropriate, and that there was sufficient parking at the church to serve the uses that would be housed in the church and at 20 Free Street. They recognized that the use of the building did not represent an increase in the intensity of use at the church, but simply a relocation of uses from the church building to 20 Free Street. Mr. Healey acknowledged that the path leading from the church to the house at 20 Free Street could represent an invasion of privacy for the neighbors by inviting the public into the traditionally private realm of backyards. Board members determined that additional screening should be provided on the west side of the property to screen the abutters at 22 Free Street. Board members discussed the potential difficulties associated with enforcing many of the conditions proposed by the abutters associated with the use of the property during non-business hours and by groups of adults. Tod McGrath pointed out that the proposed building layout, consisting of small office spaces, did not seem conducive to group gatherings. Judy Sneath felt that placing too many constraints on uses would, in effect, turn the neighbors into "spies" having to check and determine whether the activity was permitted or not. Mr. Warner reiterated that persons using the 20 Free Street building in the evenings and at all other times will be expected to respect the interests of neighbors, as would any good neighbor. The Board voted to attach the following conditions to the Special Permit A-3: 1. A 4-foot path surfaced with a "nonpermanent", plowable surface such as brick or paving stones will be installed from the house at 20 Free Street to the main parking lot at 578 Main Street. The path will be located as shown on the Site Plan of the 20 Free Street property last revised 6/14/06. 2. Path lighting will be limited to low level lights located at ground level. Prior to installation, proposed walkway lighting will be reviewed by the Town Planner. 3. The intermittent porch light on the east side of the building illuminating the driveway will be replaced with a lower wattage fixture pointing downwards and away from abutting properties. 4. Vegetative screening shall be planted along the west property lines for approximately 150' from Free Street northward to a point parallel to the shed at 22 Free Street. 5. Parking at 20 Free Street will be limited to the one American Disabilities Act compliant parking space as shown on the plans. Parking will not be permitted on the grass lawn areas in front or in back of the building at 20 Free Street. 6. Use of the building at 20 Free Street will be limited to the following: a. office and/or desk space for 4-7 Church pastors and staff for pastoral, clerical and administrative functions, space for pastors, staff, church officers and elders to meet with church members and other persons for Church business and ministry activities, and space for storage of supplies and other church property; b. visits to pastors or other church staff by members of the congregation and other visitors including those inquiring about becoming involved with the church, for prayer, Bible reading, obtaining advice, mentoring and information, Biblical teaching, and other church-related purposes; c. normal week-day business hours on Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM; d. use at other times as needed on weekends and in the evenings for church office activities as described above, in particular pastors working on evenings or week ends studying or preparing sermons or meeting with people, and church pastors officers, staff and elders conducting church business and ministry activities, and making copies, retrieving files, and making phone calls. 7. There will be no indoor or outdoor infant, child or youth group activities at 20 Free Street. 8. The church will have an open door to the neighbors about any nuisance or disorder that may arise from the use of 20 Free Street, and will work with the neighbors and the Town to resolve any issues in a mutually agreeable manner. 9. Prior to the issuance of the building permit a revised Site Plan will be submitted to the Planning Board and Building Commissioner reflecting all applicable conditions identified herein. The hearing was closed. RE: 309 Whiting-Request for Lot Release Mr. David Bowering came before the Board to request the release of the lot at 309 Whiting Street. The Board's consulting engineer, Paul Brogna, had inspected the site, and prepared a "cost to complete" indicating that a bond in the amount of $3,500 would be sufficient to cover the cost of completing the roadway plus contingencies. It was moved, seconded and SO VOTED, to release Lot 2 (Land Court lots 3, 4 and 5) from the Subdivision at 309 Whiting Street, contingent upon the applicant posting a bond in the amount of $3,500. RE: Viking Lane-Request for Extension to 8/1/07Ms. Lacy requested that the Board postpone this vote until she get a better sense whether they have appropriately dealt with erosion control on the cleared site. Ms. Murphy asked how many times this project had been extended, and Ms. Lacy noted that it was approved in 2001. Ms. Murphy asked that Mr. Murphy to come before the Board at a meeting in the near future to discuss why the project has not been moving forward. Unscheduled: Old/New Business RE: Form A - 400 Cushing Street, Boston Golf Jeffery Tocchio presented this Form A to the Board on behalf of applicant John Mineck. This Form A would create a house lot within the Boston Golf Club. John Mineck has conferred with the Board of Appeals, and the creation of this new lot will require a modification to the Special Permit for Boston Golf. He will be held to this before a building permit is issued for the new house. It was moved, seconded, and SO VOTED, to accept the Form A entitled, "Approval Not Required Plan of Land 400 Cushing Street Hingham, MA 02043", dated June 9, 2006, prepared by Coler and Colantonio, Inc., Norwell, MA, for John DeMatteo II, 405 Cochituate Road, Suite 203, Framingham, MA, owner and John Mineck, 289 Whiting Street, Hingham, MA, applicant. RE: Review Proposed Minor Modification to Back River CondosMs. Hastings proposed a minor modification to the Back River Condos to the ZBA, and they requested that the Planning Board take a look to make sure that it would not require Site Plan Review. The change involved moving one unit from one 4-unit complex to an adjacent 3-unit complex. The Board

IU drops Big Ten opener Published on Decatur Daily Democrat (http://www.decaturdailydemocrat.com) Home > IU drops Big Ten opener Iu drops Big Ten opener By editor Created 12/28/2010 - 9:53am 12-28 Rivers gurd .jpg [1] RIVERS ON DEFENSE — IU guard Jeremiah Rivers (right) moves in position to cut off an opponent in a recent game. IU fell to Penn State Monday in the Big Ten opener. (DDD Photo by Les Conrad) By The Associated Press BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) — Jeff Brooks had a career-high 23 points and Talor Battle added 19 to help Penn State hold off Indiana 69-60 on Monday night. The Nittany Lions (8-4, 1-0 Big Ten) snapped a two-game losing streak with their second straight win at Assembly Hall — a venue where they had lost 15 straight before finally winning a game two years ago. The two teams met only once last season, in State College, Pa. Indiana (9-5, 0-1) has lost three straight and saw its nine-game home winning streak end. Verdell Jones had 15 points and freshman Victor Oladipo scored 14 points in his first career start. Penn State, the worst shooting team in the Big Ten coming into the game, started 7 of 10 from the field. The Nittany Lions used four straight 3-pointers in a 12-3 run and followed that with nine straight points to take a 25-11 lead midway through the first half. Penn State led by as much as 30-16 before Indiana finally started to rally. Oladipo made 1 of 2 free throws, Jones hit a 3 and Jeremiah Rivers scored on a putback to get the sluggish Hoosiers within 30-22. It was the first real burst of energy for Indiana — but not the last. After trailing 34-25 at halftime, and the Hoosiers charged back quickly in the second half. Jones made a 3 to trim the lead to 35-30, and Jordan Hulls hit another 3 with 16:58 to go to make it 39-36. Rivers’ layup with 12:43 left got Indiana within 45-42, and then Maurice Creek finally got started. Creek’s leaning 2-footer made it 45-44, his 17-footer cut the deficit to one and then he drove the baseline for a layup to give Indiana a 48-47 lead with 8:46 to go. It was Indiana’s first lead since 5-2. Brooks, who pestered Indiana all night, followed that flurry with back-to-back baskets, and the Nittany Lions never trailed again. Indiana did get within 53-52 with 4:04 to go when Jones made 1-of-2 free throws and had a chance to regain the lead but Jones missed a long jumper inside of three minutes. Penn State answered with a 9-2 run that made it 62-54 to seal the outcome. David Jackson had 15 points and eight rebounds for Penn State, while Hulls had 13 points for Indiana. Hoosiers forward Christian Watford finished with three points — failing to reach double figures for the first time this season.

MAA - Spring 2008 - Donald H. Gilden, '63 On the Heels of MS Donald H. Gilden, ’63, knew the moment he touched the dying man’s cold hand he wanted to become a doctor. He was just five years old when he made his decision. His grandfather had taken him to visit a friend who was dying of congestive heart failure and was surviving in an oxygen tent. Young Gilden was under strict orders not to disturb the man, but he disobeyed his grandfather slipping his hand under the tent. The old man squeezed the boy’s fingers and told him stories about his grandfather. “After that day I never stopped talking about it,” says Gilden, professor and chairman of the department of neurology and professor of microbiology at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. “I was going to be a doctor when I grew up. I never wanted to do anything else.” Gilden, age 70, has indeed made his mark on the profession. He is recognized as a pioneer in the field of neurovirology for groundbreaking work relating to shingles and multiple sclerosis (MS). After nearly 150 years of medical speculation, Gilden discovered that varicella zoster virus—the virus that causes shingles—is latent in human ganglia. More than a million people a year suffer from shingles, and his work helped lead to a shingles vaccination. He has also been working to track down the virus he believes causes MS, a disease that affects about a quarter of a million people in the United States. But this has been far more challenging. Yet Gilden is focused on what he wants to accomplish and understands that it will perhaps take the rest of his life, or even longer, to reach answers. “You have to be patient,” he says. “Science goes little by little. Progress is little by little.” For his work, Gilden has received an alumni award for distinguished service from the University of Chicago School of Medicine, the International Society for NeuroVirology Pioneer Award, and, in May, he will receive the Medical Alumni Association’s Honor Award and Gold Key, presented for outstanding medical accomplishments and distinguished service to mankind. A neurologist by training, Gilden sees patients who suffer from migraines, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer’s, stroke, and Parkinson’s. “I will see anyone,” he says. “Clinical neurology has always been one of my first loves.” But most of his time is spent in the lab conducting research in the microscopic world of DNA, RNA, viruses, and proteins. “Sometimes in the lab my head is spinning because we have big things going on,” Gilden says. As a boy growing up in Baltimore, Gilden’s world revolved around school and working summers in the family business, Sam Gilden & Son, a wholesale store that supplied hair tonic, razor blades, bobby pins, toothpaste, and other items to local drug stores. He unloaded trucks, packed orders, swept floors, and, when he was old enough, made deliveries in a bright red Dodge delivery truck His father saw him taking over the business one day, a task which demanded hard work and long hours. “We never had dinner with my father,” Gilden recalls. “The wholesale business was a tough business.” Gilden’s real “job” was to go to school, and he excelled in biology, chemistry, and math. Classes in foreign language, however, barely held his interest. “For me the language of medicine was all I ever cared about,” he says. He graduated from Dartmouth College in 1959, and moved back home to go to medical school. Gilden interned at the University of Illinois Hospital in Chicago, and did his residency in neurology at the University of Chicago Hospitals. It was in the late 1960s while he was a staff neurologist in the US Army at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, DC, that he became interested in research. After seeing patients during the day, he had time to catch his breath in the evening and mull over the amazing research underway. Researchers had discovered that measles virus in the brain could cause chronic encephalitis, and that Jakob-Creutzfeld disease—a “degenerative” brain disorder in humans—was infectious. “I said to my wife, ‘I think I want to do a fellowship in infectious diseases,’” recalls Gilden, who was 32 at the time. “She looked at me like she married a crazy man.” He was accepted at the Johns Hopkins University School of Hygiene and Public Health as a postdoctoral National Institutes of Health fellow. After about three years, he joined the faculty at University of Pennsylvania and set up a lab at the Wistar Institute in Philadelphia to find the virus that causes MS. He worked closely with MS patients who lived in a chronic care facility and were ravaged by the disease. Gilden asked if they would donate their brains after death to his research because he was looking for the cause of MS. Sometimes his phone rang in the middle of the night and within an hour Gilden was harvesting brain from their skulls. “I had my own saw,” he says. He studied 24 brains over eight years, but never found the MS virus. So, he turned his attention to varicella zoster virus, which causes chickenpox in children and shingles in adults. Nobody had ever isolated the virus, and if he could prove it was there he believed he could use the same technique to find the MS virus. He tore into his work mapping the viral genome in human ganglia along the entire nervous system. In 1983, he proved for the first time that the virus was latent in ganglia and “reawakens” causing shingles. The shingles virus causes pain and even stroke if it makes its way to the brain. Gilden found several other diseases caused by the virus, such as zoster sine herpete, or shingles without the rash. His discoveries led to more work for his team. Gilden left the University of Pennsylvania in 1985 to become professor and chairman of the department of neurology at the University of Colorado School of Medicine and professor of microbiology. At the University of Colorado, 15 members of Gilden’s team are working on varicella zoster virus and MS. They harvest ganglia collected from an autopsy room. “We go there every day,” Gilden says. “If it is a good case we will go as far as we have to. We even get specimens from Japan.” MS has been a hard case to crack, but Gilden seems to be making progress. The common theory is that MS is autoimmune. The body’s immune response attacks a protein that is normally in the brain. The attack is so violent and persistent that the brain is destroyed in the process. “We don’t think that is the case at all,” Gilden says. “Even now we have evidence that it is not autoimmune.” He argues that in people with MS who have increased amounts of an antibody called immunoglobulin G (IgG), in their brain and spinal fluid, the IgG is directed against an infectious agent, but nobody is quite sure at what agent it is directed. He and his team are looking for footprints of virus in MS. “We are writing a paper showing that the immune response in MS is not against a self (auto) protein,” he says. While he is busy with his research, Gilden, who is married and has three adult sons, skis and plays the violin—a 1779 Guadagnini. He is also quick to tell a joke. Gilden would like to find out what causes MS and how to prevent varicella zoster virus from reactivating. He is unfazed by the fact that his research into MS

ALLELE 4 OF MHC CLASS I CHAIN RELATED GENE A INCREASES THE RISK IN LATVIAN PATIENTS WITH JUVENILE RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS ALLELE 4 OF MHC CLASS I CHAIN RELATED GENE A INCREASES THE RISK IN Latvian PATIENTS WITH Juvenile Rheumatoid arthritis. CB Sanjeevi, Ija Cimdina, A Shtauvere, M Ghaderi, I Rumba. Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Children Hospital of Riga, Sweden and Latvia. Juvenile Rheumatoid arthritis (JRA) is a heterogeneous disease consisting of several clinical subgroups. It is an autoimmune disease associated with the HLA class II genes. It is negatively associated with HLA-DR1-DQ5 in Latvians. DR1-DQ5 was also decreased in seronegative patients compared to seropositive patients in Latvian JRA. In addition to HLA, we looked for an additional second susceptibility loci for JRA in Major Histocompatibility Class III region. MICA gene is located in the MHC class III region and is expressed by monocytes, keratinocytes and endothelial cells. Sequence determination of MICA gene identifies trinucleotide repeat (GCT) microsatellite polymorphism, which identifies 5 alleles with 4,5,6 and 9 repetitions of GCT or 5 repetitions of GCT with 1 additional nucleotide insertion (GGCT). The alleles are A4, A5, A5.1 , A6 and A9. The aim of our study was to find the association of MICA alleles with JRA patients (n=119) and healthy controls (n=108) from Latvia. The samples were analysed for MICA by PCR amplification and fragment sizes were determined in ABI prism DNA sequencer. HLA-DQ was genotyped by PCR-SSO. Allele 4 was significantly increased in patients (40/119, 34%) compared to controls (19/108, 17%)(OR=2.37, p<0.01, Pc<0.05). 4/5.1 genotype was also significantly increased in JRA patients (22/119, 18%) compared to 7/108 (6%) controls (OR=3.27, p<0.01, Pc<0.05). 5/5.1 genotype was decreased in JRA patients (4/119, 3%) compared to 13/108 (12%) controls (OR=0.25, p<0.01, Pc=ns). In conclusion, allele A4 of MICA is increased in JRA patients compared to healthy controls and 4/5.1 genotype also increased in Latvian patients with JRA. Our findings suggest that MICA may play an important role in the etiopathogenesis of IDDM

Many societies regard higher education as a protectorate against addiction. Such culturally developed beliefs can create biases that preclude opportunities for early detection of problems and consequently early intervention. In this issue of Addiction and the Humanities, we review evidence of substance-related problems among the highly educated. Although education tends to decrease the likelihood of substance-related addiction (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, 2005), the highly educated are not immune to developing substance use problems. Researchers surveyed a highly educated workforce (Matano, Wanat, Westrup, Koopman, & Whistsell, 2002) to investigate the prevalence of risky substance use behaviors among a more educated workforce. Matano et al. (2002) randomly selected 10% (N=857) of employees to receive surveys regarding their substance use behaviors during the previous 12 months. Of these eligible employees, 504 sent back completed surveys. Respondents were 62.8% female and ranged in age from 21 to 78 (M=43.8). Eighty one percent of the sample earned a bachelor’s degree or higher and 3% earned a high school diploma or less. Table 1 summarizes the survey results. The results reveal that alcohol and licit drug use was more prevalent than illicit substance use among this sample. A significant number of employees however, reported illicit drug use during the past year. Based on responses to the CAGE (Ewing, 1984), 12% qualified for “likely to have lifetime alcohol dependence.” Responses to the AUDIT (Bush, Kivlahan, Mcdonnell, Fihn, & Bradley, 1998) indicated that 5% had a “high likelihood of alcohol abuse.” In addition, 3% claimed that their alcohol consumption caused injury to someone else. Despite these results only a handful of employees reported receiving any substance abuse treatment over the last year. Table 1. Past year substance use among employees (N=504) There are several limitations to this study. For example, the 60% response rate might result in substance use differences between those that completed and those that did not complete the survey. In addition, this survey was conducted in 1999, and it is possible that substance use behaviors among highly educated employees have changed since then. Finally, substance use might be a more sensitive topic for the highly educated, perhaps biasing the self-report in the direction of underreporting. Despite constraints that might limit the extent of reported substance use and related problems, this study confirms that substance use and abuse is not an issue reserved only for less educated individuals. There is a need for employee prevention and intervention programs in work forces populated by the highly educated. Assuming that educated individuals are immune to substance use problems might diminish their chances of getting the help they need.

But more than that, it encapsulated a thorny scientific problem within a very simple instrument—so simple that a sailor could use it. Since the magnetic poles do not lie in the same place on the earth's globe as the true north and south poles, a compass needle will usually not point directly at the geographic pole. The deviation depends on where the compass is in relation to the magnetic pole as well as local geomagnetic conditions. Knowing this "magnetic variation" was of crucial importance to navigators trying to avoid being lost at sea. It was of particular concern to those plying the North Atlantic. Near the equator, variation might only be a degree or so, but in northern waters, it can vary up to 90°. Near Greenland, navigators could conceivably be sailing west when they thought they were sailing north. Borough therefore put into a simple instrument all the tools that the navigator needed to find and map variation at any point on the globe. This woodcut reduces a complex exercise in terrestrial geomagnetic and spherical geometry to a simple image of a simple instrument made up of simple and known commodities: compass and sundial. Designed for workaday purposes and not purporting to reveal any hidden truths of the earth or heavens, the instrument of variation allowed English sailors to map the North Atlantic. The timeliness of the book and the instrument it explained are underscored by recalling that the English only began seriously contemplating overseas exploration and colonies in the 1570s (Drake returned from his circumnavigation in 1578) and her first colony was (unsuccessfully) planted on Roanoke in 1584. Although described by Borough—the more able mathematician—the instrument was apparently invested with great meaning for Robert Norman (fl. 1590), who took the trouble to have his initials placed at the foot of the shadow line, identifying this invention and this embodied knowledge as his own. The instrument worked as follows: Placing the instrument level and plumb on a stool and aligning the shadow from the cord on the NS line of the compass dial, the navigator noted the position of the needle at two times in the day when the sun was at equal elevations above the horizon—that is, at equal times on either side of local noon. Half the difference in the absolute value of these two needle positions gave the local magnetic variation since magnetic north is not in quite the same direction as true north (the north magnetic pole lies at about 77° N lat., 45° W long.). So, for example, at 8 AM the needle might point 48°E and at 4pm point 45°W; the local magnetic variation would then be 1.5°E ([48°-45°]/2) at that point on the globe. The next time any ship came to the area, then, it would be able to compensate for that 1.5° and sail towards its destination reliably. One limitation of this instrument, however, was that to determine the most accurate declinations, the readings ought to have been taken as far apart in the day as possible, but that meant the mariner had to stay put for most or all of that day, not only a difficult task on the ocean, but also quite inefficient in terms of reaching one's destination. Ultimately, though, this instrument and many more like it defined the mathematical arts for late-sixteenth-century Englishmen and the world they sought to create. Steven A.

Field of Schemes: Judge: Red Bulls owe property taxes on Harrison stadium Editor Neil deMause moc.semehcsfodleif@lien Correspondents David Dyte moc.semehcsfodleif@divad Bob Trumpbour moc.semehcsfodleif@bob Syndicated feedRSS January 20, 2012 Judge: Red Bulls owe property taxes on Harrison stadiumA New Jersey tax-court judge has ruled that the New York Red Bulls owe property tax to the city of Harrison, despite playing in a stadium built on land owned by a tax-exempt public agency. The decision, if upheld, means that the team owes $3.6 million in back taxes for 2010 and 2011, plus similar amounts going forward. Without getting too deep into tax law, public land usually goes untaxed — but it can be taxed, or can be subject to payments in lieu of taxes, if it's used for a strictly private purpose. Given that all the money collected at Red Bull Arena flows to the Red Bulls, the judge ruled that the "public" nature of the land was an accounting fiction, and demanded that the team cough up. Whether cash-strapped Harrison will see any money from this anytime soon is uncertain — the Red Bulls have promised to appeal, which could drag this out for years. (They're also still stiffing the city on $150,000 a year in rent.) But at least there's a chance of the city getting something back for its $80 million in land and infrastructure and $173 million new train station, aside from a bunch of muddy lots set aside for theoretical future development. (According to Business Week, payments from developers are running at just over one-tenth what was projected when the arena project was first planned.) Given the number of teams that use the public-land, private-use dodge to avoid a stadium tax bill — which is to say, pretty much all of them — it's going to be interesting to see if this ruling sets any kind of precedent. Given that tax law varies widely from state to state, and who knows if this will hold up under appeal anyway, probably not, but it's an interesting idea for local governments to try to recoup some of the money they blew on stadiums in the hopes of sparking development that never arrived. Posted by Neil deMause in New York Red Bulls COMMENTS The Red Bulls are welcome in Harrison. They can pay taxes like the rest of us overtaxed property owners. The services the town provides in handling road traffic and what we have given up in convenient parking near the PATH station, not to mention the huge property tax increases we face for debt servicing are horrific. This town is organized enough, and angry enough to make the Red Bulls pay up or move out completely. If they would like to stall by appealing the decision, let's counter by forcing the stadium to go dark and let them sue us for eviction for failure to pay rent. Not paying contractual or court ordered settlements can work both ways. I would sincerely advise them to come to some amicable terms very, very quickly: the Mayor should propose to EITHER enforce the entire tax or enforce a more equitable rent: say $320k per month (to pay for services) and give the team 30 days max to consider the deal. The next Mayor of Harrison will have a 100% mandate to start blocking all access to the stadium unless a deal is reached, and that's for starters. Any retained attorney that advises the team otherwise is merely padding their own fees: they shall not win anything for their client. I'd rather vote for town bankruptcy and merger with Newark or Hudson County with cancellation of all civic services than let the Red BullS--t get away with leveraging against blue collar local home owners. Sincere advice to Trenton and beyond: this has the potential to flare into a much bigger, much nastier, front page kind of embarrassment. Suggest that the phone calls start going out to counsel in this case: the patience of the citizens has expired. Posted by Peter Talbot on January 20, 2012 10:35 AM Nice to see the tax courts actually demonstrate a backbone on this issue. Posted by Joshua Northey on January 20, 2012 10:42 AM Yeah, really sounds like they're "welcome" there. The club has been made the scapegoat for a lot of bad decisions and empty promises of ancillary development. As a RBNY fan I won't be spending a dime in Harrison if I can help it.

Posted by Matt on January 20, 2012 11:22 AM @Peter Talbot - Please contact Santa Clara Plays Fair - the group that is fighting the 49ers stadium in Santa Clara. We face the same property tax issue. People here would like to hear about what your community is going through. Our County Tax Assessor actually endorsed the stadium despite the lack of property taxes that will be paid because the city owns the land so it's being billed as a 'municipal' stadium although its purpose is as an NFL stadium. No idea if the free 49ers tickets for the Tax Assessor, Larry Stone, reported on his campaign finance disclosure forms, influenced his decision to actually campaign for the stadium during the stadium election. Santa Clara Plays Fair can be contacted here: santaclaraplaysfair.org Citizens all over the country who are fighting against being taken to the cleaners by pro-sports teams and their quest for stadiums need to come together to put a halt to public funding and giveaways for stadiums. Posted by SantaClaraTaxpayer on January 20, 2012 01:32 PM Larry Stone gets to hang out on the sidelines at 49ers games. To turn around and campaign for the stadium while in office as assessor stuck me as being highly inappropiate. To do so while accepting gifts from the 49ers is corruption. Posted by santa clara jay on January 20, 2012 03:02 PM Can someone help me understand the 1.8Mil a year assessment? Is it based on a full year (365 days a year) of occupancy? If there were other tenants would they need to split the tax? Anyone know if there were other events there? Posted by JB on January 20, 2012 06:14 PM Can someone help me understand the 1.8Mil a year assessment? Is it based on a full year (365 days a year) of occupancy? If there were other tenants would they need to split the tax? Anyone know if there were other events there? Posted by JB on January 20, 2012 06:15 PM JB; Matters relating to assessment are complex, particularly as applied to commercial and 'non-linear' properties. I deal with assessment appeals (though not in New Jersey) and thus have some general background in this area. Every jurisdiction has it's own rules and regs as relates to assessment and taxation, and I make no pretense toward knowing what these are in the state of NJ. In general terms, commercial buildings and non linear property (things like trains, utility distribution systems etc) are not assessed based on their replacement or "willing buyer/willing seller" fair market value (as private homes generally are). The reason for this is pretty obvious, given that these types of properties tend to sell infrequently and when they do the price rarely reflects the cost to build or rebuild the same asset. In general, commercial property is valued based on it's highest and best use (which isn't always what the land is currently used for... for example, if you had an old barn on 10 acres of land in mid town Manhattan, you wouldn't be paying taxes based on the value of the farmland, but on what it would sell for if it was presently on the market and zoned for a use consistent with it's surroundings). Some types of commercial property are valued based on annual income (or potential). This is a common method for rental and hotel properties. We would need to know what method(s) the assessor used to arrive at an accurate explanation for the value given for this particular land and building, but I would assume RBA has been assessed based on it's income potential. Although it may seem counter-intuitive, it is not uncommon for multimillion dollar sports facilities (or other types of buildings) to be assessed at 10-20% of their construction cost - even when they seem practically new. This is a reflection of the income generating ability of the building itself as a standalone asset (whether or not such a building is a good investment when it is assessed at 15% of it's cost one year after opening is another matter entirely...) In the rare instances where these facilities are sold (generally by the municipality that built and owns them), they often sell for a value not far from the "10-20%" value mentioned above - sometimes much less (see Skydome). As I understand the lease/ownership arrangement at RBA, the club paid for the building (more or less) and are the owners of same. Thus, they are subject to any tax burden deemed payable by the state (assuming the present judgment isn't reversed on appeal) regardless of what other tenants might be present or events may be held. This amount could be reduced if, for example, the stadium owners have agreed to payments in lieu of taxes (Pilots) to cover things like infrastructure connections, policing and the like. As far as I know, they haven't done so, but I am not fully familiar with RBA or any agreements made with the city/state. Hope that helps... Posted by John Bladen on January 22, 2012 03:42 PM That is great info, John Bladen. Thank you. Posted by Ben Miller on January 23, 2012 10:08 AM You're welcome, Ben. Quite often the answer to good questions like the one JB asked can lead to even more confusion! Posted by John Bladen on January 23, 2012 12:55 PM Very useful thank you. It does open a bunch of other questions but it could be never ending so I will stop there for now and do some research of my own. :-) (you provided plenty of direction for me). Thanks again. Posted by JB on January 23, 2012 04:32 PM John, It's interesting to note that sports facilities depreciate like cars do. Glitzy and fun when new but hardly someone should view as a solid investment to own. In Santa Clara the mayor is trying to refer to it as a "municipal" stadium. The 49ers will be paying no property tax. The Santa Clara County Assessor is all with this because he likes the 49ers so much.

Earliest European Farmers Left Little Genetic Mark On Modern Europe Earliest European Farmers Left Little Genetic Mark On Modern EuropeNovember 19, 2005 11:02 PMBiologyPrevious article: New study shows patients more willing to consider self-injectable HIV therapy than many physicians anticipate Next article: Links Add Comment Mail to a Friend Link to this article Print Article The farmers who brought agriculture to central Europe about 7,500 years ago did not contribute heavily to the genetic makeup of modern Europeans, according to the first detailed analysis of ancient DNA extracted from skeletons of early European farmers. The passionate debate over the origins of modern Europeans has a long history, and this work strengthens the argument that people of central European ancestry are largely the descendants of "Old Stone Age," Paleolithic hunter-gatherers who arrived in Europe around 40,000 years ago rather than the first farmers who arrived tens of thousands of years later during the Neolithic Age. This paper appears in the 11 November 2005 issue of the journal Science published by AAAS the nonprofit science society. The researchers from Germany, the United Kingdom and Estonia extracted and analyzed DNA from the mitochondria of 24 skeletons of early farmers from 16 locations in Germany, Austria and Hungary. Six of these 24 skeletons contain genetic signatures that are extremely rare in modern European populations. Based on this discovery, the researchers conclude that early farmers did not leave much of a genetic mark on modern European populations. "This was a surprise. I expected the distribution of mitochondrial DNA in these early farmers to be more similar to the distribution we have today in Europe," said Science author Joachim Burger from Johannes Gutenberg Universität Mainz in Mainz, Germany. "Our paper suggests that there is a good possibility that the contribution of early farmers could be close to zero," said Science author Peter Forster from the University of Cambridge in Cambridge, UK. To get at questions surrounding the ancestry of modern Europeans, the researchers studied mitochondrial DNA from early farmers in Central Europe. Mothers pass mitochondrial DNA to their offspring primarily "as is," without mixing or recombination with mitochondrial DNA from fathers. Mitochondrial DNA, therefore, provides a way for researchers to piece together how closely members of a species are related, using maternal lineages as a guide, explained Burger. In the new study, the researchers attempted to extract mitochondrial DNA from the skeletons of 56 humans who lived in various parts of Central Europe about 7500 years ago. These ancient humans all belonged to well known cultures that can be identified by the decorations on their pottery -- the Linearbandkeramik (LBK) and the Alföldi Vonaldiszes Kerámia (AVK). The presence of these cultures in Central Europe marks the onset of farming in the region. These farming practices originated in the "Fertile Crescent" of the Near East about 12,000 years ago. From bones and teeth of these 56 skeletons, the researchers extracted mitochondrial DNA sufficient for analysis from 24 of the skeletons. Six of the 24 early farmers belonged to the "N1a" human lineage, according to genetic signatures or "haplotypes" in their mitochondrial DNA that the researchers studied. These six skeletons are from archeological sites all across central Europe. Few modern Europeans belong to this N1a lineage, and those that do are spread across much of Europe. The other 18 early farmers belonged to lineages not useful for investigating the genetic origins of modern Europeans because their genetic signatures from the scrutinized region of mitochondrial DNA are widespread in living humans, according to the authors. Using the tools of population genetics and a worldwide database of 35,000 modern DNA samples, the researchers investigated the genetic legacy of early European farmers based on the fact that six of the 24 early European farmers are from a lineage that is now extremely rare in Europe and around the world. At least 8 percent of the early farmers belonged to the N1a lineage, according to the researchers who estimate the range was between 8 and 42 percent. Even this conservative estimate of 8 percent stands in stark contrast to the current percentage of central Europeans who belong to the N1a lineage -- 0.2 percent. This discrepancy suggests that these early farmers did not leave much of a genetic mark on modern Central Europeans, the authors say. "It's interesting that a potentially minor migration of people into Central Europe had such a huge cultural impact," said Forster. Small pioneer groups may have carried farming into new areas of Europe, the authors suggest. Once farming had taken hold, the surrounding hunter-gatherers could have adapted the new culture and then outnumbered the original farmers, diluting their N1a frequency to the low modern level. A range of archeological research supports different aspects of this hypothesis, the authors say. Alternatively, a different population may have replaced the early farmers in Central Europe, eliminating most of the N1a types, but archaeological evidence for this scenario is scant, according to the authors.

Istanbul Stock Exchange - MarketsWiki, A Commonwealth of Market Knowledge Istanbul Stock Exchange From MarketsWiki Jump to: navigation, search Website MarketsWiki Page Istanbul Stock Exchange Founded 1985 Headquarters Istanbul, Turkey Key People Chairman & CEO Huseyin Erkan Products IKMB-100 Index Corporate Website www.ise.org The Istanbul Stock Exchange (ISE), also known by its local acronym IKMB, is a fully-automated electronic trading exchange listing equities and debt securities. The ISE's benchmark stock index rallied significantly in 2009 after suffering a major downturn in 2008 following the global financial crisis, and began trading a new joint index for Turkish and Greek equities. Background The ISE was launched in 1985 and began trading securities publicly in 1986. In 1987, the exchange commenced publishing its benchmark stock index, the ISE-100 (also called the IMKB-100) on a daily instead of weekly basis, and in 1994 the ISE switched to fully-automated electronic trading. Six years later following a wave of global stock market demutualizations, the ISE took a 27.4 percent stake in the Baku Stock Exchange in Azerbaijan and a 5.26 percent stake in the Kyrgyz Stock Exchange in Kyrgyzstan.[1] Following several years of strong market growth, the ISE was slammed in 2008 by the global financial crisis and saw its total market capitalization fall by more than half from US$288 billion at the end of 2007 to just US$118 billion one year later. Over the same period, the benchmark ISE-100 index also dropped by more than half, from 55,538 points in 2007 to 26,864 in 2008.[2] By the end of 2008, 317 listed Tukish companies and nine Turkish exchange-traded funds (ETFs) were listed on the ISE. In mid-October 2009 the ISE and its Greek counterpart, the Athens Stock Exchange (Athex), officially launched the Greece-Turkey 30 Index (GT-30) as a benchmark index for their markets combined.[3] The GT-30 is a STOXX customized index consisting of the 15 companies with the highest market capitalization on each exchange, calculated in Turkish lira and euros.[4] Its development and launch was the result of long-term co-operation between the two exchanges, which had received applications to develop exchange-traded funds (ETFs) based on the GT-30. By mid-December 2009 the ISE had recovered some of its losses from the previous year, with the ISE-100 standing at just over 31,600, a gain of 17.2 percent on the year and a 22 percent rise since April.[5] The index crossed the 200-day moving average for the first time in more than a year. In November 2011, plans were announced for a merger between Turkey's two largest exchanges, ISE and TurkDEX. CEO Huseyin Erkan also announced at that time that he would step down due to a new law passed by the Turkish government, giving the capital city of Ankara the power to appoint executives to the ISE board.[6] Key people ISE Chairman and CEO Huseyin Erkan first joined the ISE in 1994 and was appointed executive vice-chairman in 1996, a position he held for 10 years.[7] He was appointed chairman and CEO in November 2007 and one year later was elected to the board of directors of the World Federation of Exchanges (WFE). Erkan is also president of the Federation of Euro-Asian Stock Exchanges (FEAS), a group he helped launch. He graduated New York University's Stern School of Business with an MBA in International Business and Finance in 1984. References ↑ Milestones in ISE history.

A country’ s ability to improve its standard of living over time depends almost entirely on its ability to raise its output per worker.” He said that in 1994, though writing in 2010 he might have put these points differently. In the short- run, productivity does little to solve what is a balance-sheet recession, though in the long run it’ s nearly everything. A country’ s ability to pay back its debts while minimizing the fall in its standard of living depends almost entirely on its ability to raise its output per worker. Productivity is once again moving centre stage. If the sovereign debt crisis had one clear positive it was the focus it started to place on growth prospects going forward. Of course in the short run, the sheer scale of retrenchment which Ireland is being forced into will result in a weaker growth than would have otherwise been the case. However as we move beyond this, productivity growth will again take over as the primary driver of welfare. This is where the Smart Economy debate, long derided as a wordy PR distraction, will increase in relevance. What’ s disappointing about this debate is that up to now it has focused almost entirely on exporting firms, the one section of the economy that is already demonstrably smart. The evidence of this is striking. In a research paper published in October, the ECB ranked Ireland as being the most high-tech exporting country, far outpacing Austria and Finland in second and third place respectively. The other countries with which we supposedly share so many similarities, namely Greece and Spain, were at the opposite end of the scale. In the space of twenty years Ireland has moved to the quality end of the export spectrum, and is a world leader in pharmaceuticals, information technology and services. However the debate on how we can make our exporting sector smarter has continued in what is an increasingly redundant debate. Many of these issues have been resolved a long time ago. Should we or shouldn’ t have an active industrial policy? Answer: We should and we do. Should we turn our back on services, and concentrate on manufacturing? Answer: No we shouldn’t, nor will we. Why then do policymakers still focus on exporters? The reason is simple. Productivity growth destroys as it creates. Improving productivity requires out-dated practices to be swept away, companies to transform and workers to re-skill. It’s difficult, often unpopular, yet crucial for long-run economic health. However when we create an exporting operation in Ireland, the pain is felt elsewhere. Maybe a plant gets shut in Israel, or a planned expansion in the US is cancelled. Do you think that when the Polish Government was pitching to Dell that it was worried about the job losses in Limerick? Of course not. Promoting export firms is a one-way bet, and avoids having to make the really difficult decisions. What our exporters really need now is action to reduce the cost of operating a business from Ireland. The source of this cost is the sectors which sell into the domestic market, many of whom are anything but smart. This is not just another jab at the public sector. Many sectors dominated by private provision in Ireland remain unreformed, inefficient and expensive. Reforming these sectors will be difficult, and the benefits aren’ t immediate. Reform must be done sector by sector, ensuring that regulation promotes competition. The Government itself must become a very demanding customer for local services through its procurement practices. The banking sector is a case in point. Banks are the gatekeepers for Ireland’ s payments industry, the means by which we as a society pay for goods and services. Almost uniquely in Europe, the Irish payments industry remains dominated by paper – i.e. cash and cheques - at a cost of €1bn annually to the economy. The cost of our high use of cash and cheques goes beyond pure financial concerns. Wide-scale cash usage helps perpetuate the shadow economy, at a considerable cost to ordinary, compliant taxpayers. Further, the security challenges of transporting large volumes of cash are needlessly putting the lives of bank, retail and security staff at risk. Finally, there is a strong correlation between a country’ s use of cheques and the problem of a late payments culture, which in Ireland causes huge difficulties for SMEs. Of course the payments issue is just one example of many. The recent Forfás report, “Making it Happen, Growing Enterprise for Ireland”, sets out the range of actions needed to stimulate domestic productivity. It highlights the role of competition policy, particularly in the areas of legal and medical services, where costs remain very high despite the price falls in the rest of the economy. They also highlight public procurement as an area which needs to be overhauled. Firms react to the demands of consumers, and where the Government is the consumer it has to become far more demanding. We are not alone in this need to tackle structural reforms. The above ECB report concluded that European policymakers have been using the strength of the Euro as an excuse for Europe

MOP: Mario Chalmers, Kansas Final Four Averages: 14.5ppg, 3.5rpg, 3.0apg, 3.5spg Chalmers truly was Super Mario in the championship game versus Memphis. By now the whole world has heard and seen his last second three-pointer to tie the game in regulation, but he excelled in other aspects of the game also. Always a tough defender, he was a thorn in Memphis’ side as they tried to run their offense and picked off four balls. Plus Memphis’ ultimate Achilles Heal was Chalmers strong suit this game – he was 6-6 from the charity stripe. MOP Runner Up: Darrell Arthur, Kansas Final Four Averages: 13.0ppg, 9.5rpg, 2.0bpg Arthur quietly had an excellent championship game also. He was his usual exceptional self down low, providing scoring and rebounding (including five on the offensive end), and also knocked down some face up jumpers. Plus he didn’t miss a free throw (2-2). All Final Four Team: Guard: Mario Chalmers, Kansas Guard: Brandon Rush, Kansas Final Four Averages: 18.5ppg, 6.5rpg, 16/26 FG Rush scorched UNC to get the Jayhawks into the final. Against Memphis he had a very solid 12 points and six boards. NBA, here he comes (finally). Guard: Derrick Rose, Memphis Final Four Averages: 21.5ppg, 7.5rpg, 6.0apg Rose’s explosive NCAA tournament performance has shown why he, and not Michael Beasley, is the top prospect of this year’s NBA draft. Guard: Chris Douglas-Roberts, Memphis Final Four Averages: 25.0ppg, 2.5rpg, 15/20 FT His inability to hit clutch free throws kept Memphis from winning its first men’s hoops national championship and also kept Douglas-Roberts from being CHN’s Final Four MOP. Pretty sure the first one hurts more than the second. Forward: Darrell Arthur, Kansas Add comment Your name: * E-mail: * The content of this field is kept private and will not be shown publicly.

Half of the meeting was devoted to a ‘visioning’ exercise where the group responded to the question, “it’s Dec. 2019 and the media asks you, ‘what has this group accomplished in sustainable transportation in the last ten years?’” Small groups brainstormed and then the larger group voted for their favorites among the long list of ‘accomplishments’. Top vote getters are: We adopted ‘complete streets’ legislation and incorporate it in every road project We’ve completed the Towpath Trail and the Cleveland neighborhood connectors We have predictable transit funding from the federal government We increased ‘mode shift’ – more transit riders and transportation cyclists “The next meeting we’ll talk about metrics,” said Mike Neundorfer, president of Neundorfer Particulate Knowledge and co-convener of the group. “We should link with the Metrics group that came out of the 2019 summit. And among us we should divide into smaller groups and work on developing metrics.” Projects updates followed the visioning session. They are: Improving the performance of Euclid Corridor as a Complete Street Kevin Schmotzer at the city’s Department of Economic Development, offered that some of the recent changes to the timing of traffic lights on Euclid Corridor are due to construction. “Many have come from east-west route changes and from RTA drivers, but if you have specific intersections of concern, flag them.” Brad Chase at GreenCityBlueLake Institute and chair of RTA Citizens’ Advisory Board, said the larger concern is keeping the line of communication open between the city, RTA and other stakeholders to help achieve the promised 20 minute travel time from Public Square to East Cleveland. “How do we have better communications between groups in corridor, and how do we define a Complete Street corridor?” Chase said. “This is supposed to be a bus, pedestrian and bike priority corridor. If we want to get this (complete streets) working around the city, we have to get it right here first.” Action item: Chase and John Mitterholzer, program officer at Gund Foundation and a 2019 Transportation group co-convener, will work on a meeting with the stakeholders along the corridor with the goal of establishing a “better communication protocol on changes” that have lengthened the 20 minute trip time for the HealthLine bus-rapid transit line. 3-C passenger rail Legislators need to hear the urgency from supporters of the 3-C, said Devan Willemsen, Director of Air & Land Use Special Projects at the Ohio Environmental Council. Ohio has $400 million promised from the federal government for high speed rail, but it has not been committed by the state. “It’s turning into a bit of a governor’s race issue. Some people are calling multi-modalism a passing fad. The controlling board for 3-C need to let legislators, specifically Bill Harris, know to get this going.” Mitterholzer added that many are not aware that the federally designated high-speed rail corridors will continue to receive funding, up to $1 billion over next few years. “If we turn down this money, we’re done with rail in this state for the next decade. We’re the only state considering turning down the federal money.” Action item: Willemsen said supporters of the 3-C can let their legislators know how they feel using this web site http://www.linkingohio.com/ Federal funding for multi-modal projects Transportation legislation has been introduced in the Senate, after the House passed its version. Supporters of multimodal and active transportation can sign up for Rails-to-Trails Conservancy email alerts, said RTC Ohio director Rhonda Border-Boose. “Talk about predictable, federal funding – this is it,” she said. Action item: “We need senate support – specifically Sen. Voinovich," Border-Boose said. 'We would like a ‘show Congress’ event, to tour Voinovich around where the alternative transportation dollars are being spent. Right now we need letters to legislators." Multi-purpose path on the Innerbelt Bridge Governor Strickland said he’d like ODOT to look again at the feasibility of a bike and pedestrian path on the new Innerbelt Bridge. “He has a couple of important caveats, on cost and safety that we plan to address,” said ClevelandBikes volunteer Kevin Cronin. “We deeply appreciate the step the governor took, and Senator Brown’s letter. It’s a testament to the individuals who sent letters to local and federal leaders. We’re not out of woods yet, but we’re making progress.” The group rounded out the meeting discussing new roles to sharpen implementation. A coordinator that works with the city, a liaison to other 2019 groups, a strategic plan coordinator, and an executive committee for the group were some of the positions identified for further discussion. In its wants and needs category, the group identified the following: Can we convince the city that our priorities are their priorities? What’s our role from 2019? Identifying right minority reps. Sufficient focus. Subcommittee structure. ID short term goals to expand the scope of the group. Think bigger for action items – to gain traction, go for something substantial. Keep track of accomplishments done (quantify and capture). A complete streets group Focus, don’t want to get spread too thin. Buy in from local politicians. Clearer vision of responsibilities, what power do we have to make the changes? Be clear communicating to the public. Need more attention to what is our authority and use our networks to get more attention to our projects. And how drive issue home through channels that we know. ‹ 2019 Transportation group October 2010 meeting minutes up Comparison measurements and metrics › This site is inspired by the memory of Richard Shatten, a former board member of EcoCity Cleveland, who pushed Northeast Ohio to think strategically about regionalism and sustainability.

All over the nation people will be getting together for a day of revelry, barbecuing, fairs, parades, concerts and baseball games. Clearly this is an important day, a day to bring your game face and show your neighbors that you too continue to hold an unreasonable predilection for hating Great Britain and the red coats of yester-century. It’s imperative then, that on such an esteemed day you are as well prepared to party as Paul Revere was for his midnight ride. Here’s some crucial items you absolutely must have to ensure that your 4th of July celebration goes off without a hitch: Fireworks Popcorn Giftbox: We would of course never advocate using or even owning dangerous and illegal fireworks, but with this fireworks themed popcorn, you can make all the noise without any of the catastrophe or lost limbs. This particular set features four succulent varieties of “A” grade American popcorn grown right in the heartland. You can almost hear the Star-Spangled banner as you crunch down. Cabela’s Blue Ridge Flintlock Rifle: Yes fellow patriots, this is an accurate, working replica of a Revolutionary War era rifle, the same kind that was used to run the hated Brits back into the sea. Rest assured you’ll be the life of the party with this baby slung across your back. Extra points if you convince your family (or friends, or dog) to reenact a line battle. Just don’t point it anything you don’t intend to absolutely annihilate. American Flag Shirt: No 4th of July outfit would be complete without an American flag shirt. Its rumored that George Washington himself wore an American flag shirt when he defeated King George III in an arm-wrestling contest. For those with a discerning sartorial inclination, this iconic item can be found in a variety of styles and designs, so no excuses.

But over time, the Companies Acts 1985 and 1989 have become convoluted and unwieldy to understand as successive amendments were made and changes emanating from Europe impacted on our domestic law. So the Companies Act 2006 is a consolidating piece of legislation which will codify and re-arrange existing regulation into a more readily understandable and comprehensive source of law whilst giving effect to new aspects of regulation as part of the government's reform agenda. In broad terms, the Act is designed to promote shareholder engagement and a long-term investment culture as well as introduce new provisions for small companies, for example, making it easier to set up and run a company. But it also introduces new requirements around narrative and performance reporting for all but the smallest of companies 1 – the subject of this review. Helpfully, in addition to codifying the requirements of the EU Accounts Modernisation Directive the Act ends much of the uncertainty following the withdrawal of the ‘Operating and Financial Review' (OFR) which was abruptly abandoned by the government in November 2005. After the demise of the OFR, the government has re-affirmed its commitment to “encouraging meaningful strategic, forward-looking information to assist shareholder engagement”, but there are some notable differences between the narrative reporting provisions of the Act and the OFR it replaces. For instance, although auditors will continue to be required to report on the consistency of the Directors' Report with the annual accounts (as is required by the Accounts Modernisation Directive) there will not be any additional requirement to check for other inconsistencies. Furthermore, all companies will be exempted from disclosing in the Business Review information which is seriously prejudicial to the company's interests. This exemption was previously only provided for companies that had to produce an OFR; and finally, there will be no statutory reporting standards for the Business Review. The former Accounting Standards Board (ASB) Standard (RS1) has been relegated to the status of a statement of best practice. So, for example, the Act is much less prescriptive than RS1 about the information to be disclosed when reporting KPIs. One important change that may have gone unnoticed by many is that the requirements for narrative reporting have been streamlined so that the obligations for quoted companies are now more closely aligned to those for unquoted companies. The effect is that all companies (other than small companies) and not just quoted companies, will need to produce a Business Review as required by the EU Accounts Modernisation Directive, with the primary purpose of helping shareholders to assess how the directors have performed their duty to “promote the success of the company”. This white paper reviews the main provisions of the Business Review and explains the implications for performance systems and processes. Note 1 Companies normally fall into a size category if they meet two out of the three criteria Category Turnover(not more than) Balance sheet total (not more than) Number of employees(not more than) Small company £5.6 million £2.8 million 50 Medium company £22.8 million £11.4 million 250 Timing: The Bill was introduced to the House of Lords on 1 November 2005 and brought forward to the House of Commons on 24 May 2006. The Bill completed the Commons Committee stage on 20 July 2006 and received the Royal Assent this Autumn. However, the requirement to produce a Business Review is a current legal obligation introduced into the Companies Act 1985 to implement the EU Accounts Modernisation Directive. So in practice, companies must continue to prepare and publish a directors' report containing a business review for all financial years beginning on or after 1 April 2005. THE DETAIL OF THE BUSINESS REVIEW Unless a company is subject to the small companies' regime, the directors' report must contain a Business Review. The purpose of the Business Review is to inform the members of the company and help them assess how the directors have performed their duty to promote the success of the company (section 173). s.423 Contents of Business review Section 423 says that the Business Review must contain– (a) a fair review of the company's business, and (b) a description of the principal risks and uncertainties facing the company It is also required to be a balanced and comprehensive analysis of – (a) the development and performance of the company's business during the financial year, and (b) the position of the company's business at the end of that year, consistent with the size and complexity of the business. In the case of a quoted company the Business Review must, to the extent necessary for an understanding of the development, performance or position of the company's business, include – (a) the main trends and factors likely to affect the future development, performance and position of the company's business; and (b) information about – (i) environmental matters (including the impact of the company's business on the environment), (ii) the company's employees, and (iii) social and community issues, including information about any policies of the company in relation to those matters and the effectiveness of those policies. If the review does not contain information of each kind mentioned in paragraph (b)(i), (ii) and (iii), it must state which of those kinds of information it does not contain. In addition, the review must, to the extent necessary for an understanding of the development, performance or position of the company's business, include – (a) analysis using financial key performance indicators, and (b) where appropriate, analysis using other key performance indicators, including information relating to environmental matters and employee matters. [“Key performance indicators” means factors by reference to which the development, performance or position of the company's business can be measured effectively.] Where a company qualifies as small or medium-sized it does not have to produce key performance indicators in so far as they relate to non- financial information. (The precise rules governing what qualifies as a medium sized company are contained in s474 but in general, a company is medium sized if it meets two of the following three criteria; turnover not more than £22.8m, balance sheet total not more than £11.4m and number of employees not more than 250). A significant change is that the Act gives directors a safe harbour from civil liability in respect of statements or omissions made in the Business Review. Liability will only attach to directors if such statements are untrue or misleading and are made in bad faith or recklessly or, in the case of an omission, there is dishonest concealment of material facts. THE CHALLENGES OF THE EBR So the Business Review, sometimes referred to as the Enhanced Business Review or EBR deals principally with mid-sized companies, large companies and listed entities registered in the UK . However it is worth noting that countries right across the European Community will be seeking to embody the requirements of the EU Accounts Modernisation Directive in similar domestic legislation. At first sight, the requirements of the EBR seem fairly innocuous and undemanding. Afterall, most companies should be able to produce a fair review of the company's business, and its trading position at the end of that year. However, there are a number of matters of emphasis and disclosure that need to be considered carefully and could present significant systems and process challenges for companies that are ill-prepared. By and large, quoted companies should be in better shape to comply with the new legislation because the now defunct OFR acted as a ‘dry run'. Although the last minute withdrawal of the OFR was frustrating for some, its likely implementation forced listed companies to launch OFR projects to plan for appropriate systems and processes to be put in place. But an unfortunate side effect of the sudden demise of the OFR is that the ensuing debate masked the fact that all companies were going to have to produce a Business Review and as such, many non-listed companies are poorly prepared. Leading up to the new millennium, many organisations lavished spending on ERP and other transaction systems rather than management information systems which have a pivotal role to play in support of narrative reporting. As a result, management information processes and enabling technologies are fractured and information of the sort envisaged by the EBR is not uniformly easy to gather. Over reliance on spreadsheets, coupled with separate processes and systems, including but not limited to, statutory and management reporting, strategy setting, budgeting, forecasting and performance measurement means that data is duplicated and scattered widely throughout most organisations. As a result many companies will find aspects of the Act more challenging than perhaps legislators anticipated. An unhelpful aspect of the EBR is that commentators, the press and government refer to it as ‘narrative reporting', which implies that it is a vague essay about performance. But as is so often the case, the devil is in the detail and close inspection of the Act's requirement's reveal that the areas covered are far reaching and extend into novel and unfamiliar territory such as environmental KPIs and forward looking statements. Furthermore, directors need to be mindful that there are penalties for reckless statements and although there are ‘safe harbour' provisions, it is important that the EBR is grounded in reliable and robust systems and processes so that directors can fulfil their obligations to report and, just as importantly, demonstrate that they have acted in good faith. The main challenges for companies in relation to performance systems and processes lie in the; • need to satisfy the strategic purpose of the EBR • obligation to produce a “balanced and comprehensive” commentary • requirement to make forward looking statements • possible requirement to disclose KPIs, especially non-financial KPIs The strategic purpose of the EBR The main thrust of the EBR is to allow the ‘members' of the company to assess whether the directors have been successful in their legal duty to “promote the success of the company” – in essence, whether the company has satisfactorily carried out its strategy. “Success” is very broadly defined and, amongst other matters, the directors must have regard for the interests of the company's employees and the impact of the company's operations on the community and the environment. The EBR must be “balanced and comprehensive” A balanced and comprehensive review suggests that underlying management information systems and processes should be capable of drawing together a wide range of information, gathered from multiple sources and that performance monitoring, measurement and reporting should capture good and bad performance i.e. balanced, throughout the reporting period, which now extends into the future (see below). Forward looking statements The need for forward looking statements about likely performance in the future based on an analysis of “trends and factors” is a significant departure from existing company law which merely requires a review of historic performance. It will certainly require investment in appropriate planning, budgeting and forecasting systems. Disclosure of KPIs Most companies should have little difficulty preparing financial KPIs though management will need to judge which KPIs to disclose and ensure that they are consistently measured across the enterprise, since an EBR has to be produced for every company (apart from small companies) in the group. However, the requirement to produce non- financial KPIs, such as environmental or employee KPIs could be more stretching because of the need to decide the appropriate measures and draw on wider sources of information. THE IMPACT ON APPLICATIONS AND PROCESSESS Taking these matters together, it can be seen that the EBR draws on a very wide set of interrelated business applications and processes. Collectively, these related processes are referred to as “Business Performance Management” (BPM). BPM is a ‘closed loop' process that commences with the preparation of a business strategy, the development of budgets and operational plans and then provides the means by which actual performance against plan can be measured, monitored and reported. In the fullness of time, the experience and insights gained from an analysis of performance and an understanding of the key trends and factors affecting it can be used to refine the strategy before the cycle starts all over again – the closed loop. A typical performance management process Whilst the theory of BPM is well articulated in many organisations, there are often significant barriers to its implementation, such as an over-dependency on spreadsheets, the lack of suitable applications, enabling technologies and processes that bind them together. Strategy setting Perhaps the most under-served part of the BPM process is in the area of strategy setting and development. Given the pivotal role of strategy development for the conduct of the whole performance management cycle it is perhaps surprising that it is such a neglected process in so many organisations. Yet, it is often characterised by an un-auditable collection of standalone spreadsheets and documents which are not conducive to a strategically aligned organisation. The absence of suitable systems and process support in this vital area poses significant business risk to boards of directors seeking to demonstrate that they have “promoted the success of the company”. Clearly, it is management's responsibility to develop a practical and realistic strategy for the organisation. However, technology has a vital role to play in ensuring that, the strategy is communicated throughout the organisation, that operational plans and performance measures are strategically aligned with it and that monitoring systems highlight management actions that need to be taken to keep the strategy on course. Therefore, in fulfilling the obligations of the EBR, there is a strong requirement for software tools which support the iterative process of strategy development and allow the outcome to be documented and revisited as appropriate. Planning, budgeting and forecasting Once developed, it is crucial that performance objectives are built into the operational plans and forecasts of the organisation. The forward looking orientation of the EBR makes it essential that boards consider the effect of current trends and factors on performance in the future. In order to meet this objective organisations require a budgeting and forecasting application that allows for frequent re-forecasting and can improve the analysis and business insights that can be obtained from the process. Modern web based planning applications encourage collaboration between budget holders, accelerate the re-forecasting process and through higher levels of participation can improve data quality and the frequency of re-forecasting. This latter point is important as the EBR requires directors to report in a “balanced and comprehensive” way throughout the period. The more frequently that organisations can re-forecast, the more likely it is that directors are acquainted with the trends and factors affecting performance. Scorecarding and dash-boarding However, if directors are to deliver success, it is vital that the strategy is communicated and understood throughout the organisation and that operational objectives and performance measures, which guide organisational behaviour, are strategically aligned. This is where scorecarding and dash-boarding applications come into play. They are designed to help companies articulate their strategy using KPIs, communicate strategy across the enterprise and link it to operational objectives and initiatives. Leveraging this technology, individual and departmental goals can be aligned with corporate goals and objectives thus ensuring accountability for delivering results throughout the organisation. Consolidation The EBR requires all of the strands of performance management to be brought together in a way that permits “balanced and comprehensive” reporting across the enterprise for all periods under review. In this context consolidation applications used for management and statutory reporting form a very necessary part of the drive to capture information reliably from a variety of underlying data sources at the end of each accounting period. Given the broadly based requirements of the EBR and in particular the possible need to report more widely on non-financial matters and related KPIs, consolidation systems become even more central to the solution. The ability to easily adapt data entry forms, collect statistical or memorandum information directly from the underlying transactions systems (ERP) and develop business logic as appropriate are essential to responding to the detail of the EBR. Web based data entry bolstered by vendor certified adapters that allow integration with third party transaction systems are becoming essential features for modern performance management systems. They can significantly reduce reporting cycles leaving management with more time to analyse performance and take remedial action as necessary. Reporting In recent years the advent of cost effective, web deployable reporting has opened up performance management applications to a much larger population of end users. Increasingly, this extended population has grown to include individuals from all levels of an organisation and most functional areas. Indeed, the EBR, with its diverse reporting requirements, underlines the need to engage with more individuals from across different functional areas in the organisation. With environmental, employee and social reporting firmly on the agenda, it is important that, say, finance directors, HR directors, Production directors and Investor Relations professionals are bound into a joined up process and equally comfortable with reporting from the performance management system regardless of their skills and background. So it is crucial too, that a performance management environment permits a variety of analytical tools to be deployed allowing users from different functional areas to select tools for the creation of regular production reporting, ad-hoc and interactive reports according to their personal preferences. As such, in addition to ‘normal' reporting, a performance management platform should ideally provide choices around, dashboards, scorecards, dynamic spreadsheets and portals as well as making use of the latest techniques in alerting, customisable displays (colour coded meters, gauges and dials), animated pin-boards and “traffic lighting” to highlight under or over performance in a visually striking way. INTEGRATION IS KEY The performance management cycle as a business process draws on numerous specialised applications and potentially hundreds of underlying data sources to provide management insights. Traditional ETL (Extract, Transform and Load) tools, designed for bulk data transfers with no specific applications in mind are likely to prove lacking in a more challenging performance management environment. Newly emerging FDQM (Financial Data Quality Management) solutions created for complex performance management applications where interfaces are intricate and precision is vital will be more suitable. Specially designed to leverage the skills of the finance community to maintain financially oriented interfaces, they provide a bridge between source and target applications in a similar way to ETL but crucially provide visibility into the processes on either side, with full traceability of transactions backwards or forwards through the interfaces. Once the data is captured from the source systems it is vital that performance management processes, applications and data are fully integrated so that the integrity of data is assured right across the performance management environment and that all users share the same information. It is metadata that defines structural information, such as organisational hierarchies, account codes, time periods and product group dimensions that form the backbone of most performance management applications. Differences in metadata prevent reporting across applications and whilst it can be temporarily forced into alignment with clever mapping tools and technology it quickly slips out of alignment as changes are made to different business areas and applications. In theses circumstances, MDM (Master Data Management) style solutions that allows master data and data definitions to be staged in one repository so that the interrelationships between applications are defined and their metadata is synchronised throughout the performance management suite are crucial. MDM solutions ensure that amendments made to data structures by end users in any application are automatically reflected elsewhere so that any of the other applications working off the same data platform are automatically made ‘aware' of the change. Using this technique, structures are brought automatically into alignment, reporting maintains its integrity and consistency of reporting is assured. Unfortunately, many organisations have grown their performance applications and processes in isolation, often using different software vendor's tools and spreadsheets which accentuate the differences. In these circumstances, each application is governed by its own business rules and data structures rendering comparisons of data held in different application areas unworkable. Making sense of all of this data presents significant management and IT challenges, particularly as the reporting landscape is constantly changing in the face of new reporting requirements. In addition a possible lack of consistency in reporting seriously jeopardises the reliability of reporting. In the context of the EBR, independent auditors have to attest that the claims made in the Business Review are consistent with the financial statements. Therefore, both management and auditors need certainty that, for example, a financial KPI reported in the EBR, such as Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) is completely consistent with the same values derived from a scorecard, the monthly board pack and the current forecast. So integration is at the heart of performance reporting and compliance with the EBR. It is only through integrated applications that management can be sure that the information it is using to analyse trends and factors affecting current and future performance is reliable and comparable over time. SUMMARY The narrative reporting requirements of the Companies Act 2006 are part of a growing trend in company reporting towards the convergence of external and internal management reporting combined with a surge of interest in non-financial reporting, most notably; factors that affect employees, the environment and wider community. In effect, most of the provisions of the obsolete OFR have been re-introduced in the Act and apply equally to quoted and unquoted companies. The breadth of disclosure requirements coupled with formidable obligation to make forward looking statements means that management has to have its ‘finger on the pulse' of the company continually, analysing any trends and factors affecting performance right across the enterprise. Such demands mean that it is no longer viable for businesses to manage performance in functional silos or to use a series of unconnected applications and processes from different vendors which jeopardise data integrity. The need for constant appraisal of performance coupled the speed of reporting leaves no choice but for companies to standardise on an integrated performance management platform that can support robust and dependable processes from strategy setting right through to performance monitoring, analysis and reporting. But the needs of narrative reporting in the Business Review now extend beyond the pure technical requirement to unify metadata, applications and technology. Potentially, the construction of a comprehensive and balanced EBR requires the involvement of different functional specialists from across the organisation which means that systems have to address a wide range of competencies. The winners in performance management will be those BPM vendors that can provide an adaptable and rewarding ‘user experience' as well as an outstanding technical solution.
