1 Cond-IS RF Conducted Immunity System
2 About RF Conducted Immunity In the global contest of EMC testing for residential and industrial EUTs (Equipments Under Test) RF Conducted Immunity compliance verification is definitely one of the easiest and less expensive to be performed in house, not requiring any special environment and normally involving a low power RF Amplifier. For this reason NARDA Italy has renewed its already well known as 6000S/10 RF Immunity System with components and test management software to follow and even overcome latest requirements from the Standard IEC/EN PMM Modularity Continuing with the philosophy of a Modular Approach, which still provides several advantages for actual use and future upgrades of the system when compared to compact solutions, main innovations are represented by the introduction of the new RF Generator 3010 and True RMS Power Meter 6630, both controllable through USB Ports by any PC. The power meter 6630 can be operated up to 3 GHz, so representing an ideal companion for Radiated Immunity applications as well, in particular when matched to the same frequency range provided by the RF Generator model Thanks to such modularity, the operator can always select the best suitable components for his applications, never loosing the chance to modify or upgrade the system in future. PIMS Software The new PMM Immunity Suite software, accurately designed in terms of functions and user friendly approach, can manage the whole range of PMM components during both Test and Calibration processes, introducing the possibility of looking at the various monitoring tracks from generator and power meters (from field meter too in case of Radiated Immunity).
3 Cond-IS/10 System Composition Cond-IS/10 system has been designed to provide all necessary components required for testing in accordance to IEC/EN with just one package, not losing modularity but still maintaining a very simple and cost effective solution. Operator can then only focus on testing, without worrying about collecting components and being sure they can properly work together automatically driven by a specifically designed software. The Cond-IS/10 system includes following standard components: Generator 3010, 9 khz 1 GHz, -107 to +10 dbm Amplifier 6000N, 9 khz 230 MHz, 10/15 W ATT-25W, 6 db Attenuator, 25 W max CDN M3-16, 3 lines 16 A each, calibrated at 1, 3 and 10 V levels Cab-06, Cable Kit to fully connect the system PIMS, PMM Immunity Suite software for Windows OS operated PCs. In case any different testing device should be required, it would always be possible to customize the system accordingly. More powerful amplifiers are also available upon request when a Special Test Level over 10 V should be achieved or when using an EM Clamp in conjunction with a Filtering Clamp; in this case the 6 db Attenuator should be changed as well, according to the new max power level. As additional benefit, NARDA Italy Labs always provide the selected device (CDN, EM Clamp or Current Injection Probe) fully calibrated at 1, 3 and 10 V standard stress levels, together with the whole Cond-IS/10 system, i.e. including all RF cables and components belonging to the real testing condition.
4 CDNs, EM Clamps and Current Injection Clamps Calibration according IEC/EN The EMC Standard IEC/EN requires usage of CDNs for power and signal lines whenever applicable, what is always assuring a proper coupling of RF stress signal in the direction of the EUT and a decoupling toward the Auxiliary Equipment (AE) on the other side. The 150 Ω common-mode matching impedance on both sides is required to provide the highest possible reproducibility of the test in every other laboratory worldwide. To reach the standard Test Levels of 1, 3 and 10 V each CDN must be calibrated at first for each of these levels to get proper stress signal during real EUT testing phase.when CDNs are not suitable for some special signal cables or multi-wires connections in general, devices like EM Clamps or Current Injection Clamps must be used. In case of EM Clamps, providing a combined capacitive and inductive coupling of the RF stress signal, the Calibration Set- Up is almost identical to that for CDNs, just inserting the EM Clamp between the two Ω Adapters interconnected by a properly diameter sized wire. Calibration Tables are normally provided with the Cond-IS/10 system but could also be generated on site when purchasing a 6630 Power Meter and necessary Calibration Kits for each selected coupling/decoupling device. As calibration accuracy depends on all components used in the test set-up, every time a device should be re-calibrated the whole system (including Generator, Amplifier, Attenuator and RF Cables) would have to be sent back to the calibration laboratory, that s why in most cases the addition of the
5 CDN Calibration Set-Up according to the Standard requires some additional components which are no more required during the Test, as for the following list: Shorting Adapters (no. 2 pieces for each CDN) Ω Squares Adapters (100 embedded impedance, no. 2 pieces for each CDN) 50 Ω Termination (mounted on a N-BNC Adapter) RF Power Meter. CDN Calibration Kit EM Clamp Current Injection Clamp 6630 and Calibration Kit would provide the bestsolution for performing calibration on site and faster as well. The whole Calibration Procedure is automatically managed by PIMS software, then operator will simply have to define Device and Test Level before starting it; on-going monitoring will be always available through live diagrams showing Generator RF Output Power and Power Meter measured levels step by step. Current Injection Clamps (inductive coupling) require a specific Calibration Jig instead, whose mechanical dimensions and manufacturing details are clearly defined in the Standard. Current Clamp calibration fixture
6 Current Injection Clamp and Monitoring Probe according IEC/EN In case CDNs would not be available for some special or multiwires cables connection between EUT and AE, the Standard allows testing with a different method, i.e. using Current Injection Clamp & Monitoring Probe.This method is much more effective if compared to the other one using the EM Clamp, due to a less expensive configuration in terms of device used to properly inject RF stress signal and power required from amplifier. A clear flow chart is provided in the Standard to help operators in defining when a Clamp has to be used for such Conducted Immunity Test. Two different set-ups are defined depending mainly on the 150Ω impedance matching condition at AE side, what could require or not a monitoring of the injected current at EUT side (subclauses 7.3 and 7.4 in the Standard). As it s quite difficult to define if the 150 Ω common mode impedance matching will be achieved or not for each specific EUT/AE combination, it appears more convenient to apply subclause 7.4 using a Current Monitoring Probe together with a Current Injection Clamp, what PMM has always recommended since several years ago. No additional filtering devices are required to assure the 150 Ω impedance matching, while the injected current is always monitored to not trespass the threshold level of Uo/150, where Uo is the voltage test level required for that specific EUT. A 30W amplifier is normally enough to drive such a test up to the 10V level.
7 The test is then performed in 2 different steps: verification of Threshold Current Value and modification of RF Generator output levels accordingly, without AM modulation super-imposition use of the modified Generator Table (frequency vs. level) to perform the test with the addition of AM modulation.
8 PMM Immunity Suite Software Same PIMS suite is also designed for driving Radiated Immunity Tests according to IEC/EN in both Semi-Anechoic Chambers or TEM/GTEM Cells, including calibration of radiated field up to 16 points in a grid of Field Uniformity assurance, but this is just for general info, as beyond the scope of present leaflet. So please refer to specific separate documentation for further details. Graphical traces provide real time monitoring of Generator Output and Power Meter readings PMM has developed a suite of utilities specifically designed for EMC Immunity applications, capable of driving all necessary operations for both Calibration and Testing with several devices (CDNs, EM Clamps, Current Injection Clamps and others used for Radiated Immunity as well). The software is user friendly and provides a really ergonomic configuration which comfortably drives the operator through the various steps, from definition and selection of HW components to settings of required parameters and finally starting the test with just one button. Program window has been designed for omnicomprehensive overview of each specific test being performed, so that operator can easily control all details with a quick glance. A graphical scheme of the test set-up clearly reminds about proper physical connections between components, which could slightly differ between Tests and Devices Calibration. In the right portion of the screen two different tags allow simple selection of Table Creation (i.e. calibration) or Test Execution, providing all details about Generator and Power Meter status. At window s bottom some other tags provide intuitive subsequent steps for setting about various Setups, system Components and Testing parameters. On top of everything, testing and calibration procedures are always updated to state of the art requirements of reference Standards. A complete Report is automatically generated during the test, including information about Company, Operator, EUT and Environmental Conditions, as well as all details of settings used for the scan and Event Logs at time of failures identified by the operator.
9 Several auxiliary functions for Debugging are also available Pause during the frequency scan at EUT failures and Manual Adjustment of both Frequency and Level to identify threshold of susceptibility. Break Points definition to momentarily stop the test at some frequencies for any reason. Multi-Scan Table to perform test only on most critical frequency s segments and save time during debugging phase. Automatic Fill-Up Table by linear interpolation between arbitrary Generator Output Levels defined by the operator to generate custom stress profiles.

Here's some conflict news the HP doesn't cover, because it's not about evil Israel oppressing poor innocent Palestinians:
A Palestinian man was shot and killed Thursday evening after he forced his way into an army base north of Jerusalem, using a tractor to ram the gate, in what the IDF described as a suspected terror attack.Palestinian officials said the suspect was identified as Younis al-Radeideh. His family reportedly recently received a demolition order for their East Jerusalem home, according to Walla News.According to reports, in 2009, his brother Marei al-Radeideh, a resident of Bet Hanina, was shot dead in a similar incident in Jerusalem when he drove a tractor into two vehicles, including a police car and an empty bus. He was shot by officers at the scene.Younis Radeideh is believed by israeli officials to have acted on his own, Israel Radio reported.Thursday's incident occurred at the IDF's Rama Base, just north of Jerusalem next to Al-Ram, a Palestinian neighborhood.Although I wouldn't put it past the Huffposters to declare this man's death "murder" and "a war crime".

Latisse for Alopecia Areata?
Alopecia Areata is a non-scarring, often sudden, hair loss with sharply defined areas of alopecia. Most cases cause round or oval patterns of baldness but occasionally large areas of the scalp lose their hair (alopecia totalis) or generalized hair loss including all body hair (alopecia universalis) can occur. It is felt by most authorities to be auto-immune, the body is producing antibodies to the hair follicle.
Sometimes, the eyelashes or eyebrows are affected.
When Latisse was approved, I thought this lash grower might help two of my patients who are so affected. They applied Latisse in the same way my Latisse patients are instructed. However, after three months, neither has had a successful result.
Of course, my "study" is anecdotal. However, a much larger study was recently published in the European Journal of Dermatology ( Dec 2009) by Faghihiet al. The authors conducted a bilateral-paired comparison study to test the efficacy of Latisse for regrowing eyebrows and eyelashes. Instead of the two patients I enlisted, they enrolled 26.
Basically, one eye was treated and the other went untreated. After four months, baseline and end point photographs were compared. Unfortunately, only one patient displayed even a modest success.
Thus, while Latisse is usually successful in growing out lashes, it does not seem to be able to correct the immunologic problem in alopecia areata and thus cannot restore the lashes or brows to those who have lost them.

text: Dementia 13(1963) Studio: Film Chest, Inc. (originally released by American International Pictures) Year: 1963 Rated: NR Length: 75 minutes Aspect Ratio: 1.78:1 Resolution (for Blu-Ray only): 1080p Languages: English Subtitles: Spanish Film Release Date: September 25, 1963 Disc Release Date: April 26, 2011 Disc Review Date: May 2, 2011 The Movie: 3/5 Everyone has to start somewhere. In the case of Francis Ford Coppola, his multi-decade career as a director officially began with this unusual horror film from exploitation legend Roger Corman. Needless to say, it led him to a Hollywood career that started in the transition from Old to New Hollywood—could his 1968 film of the musical Finian's Rainbow be any bigger a sign of the Generation Gap?—and reached its peak with The Godfather I and II and Apocalypse Now, heights he has yet to reach since then. In this film, he draws from another great director—Alfred Hitchcock—and his horror classic Psycho. The inspiration came to him by the request of producer Roger Corman, who wanted to capitalize off of its success with a quickie horror film. On a boating trip one evening, Jon Haloran (Peter Read) argues about his mother's will with his greedy wife Louise (Luana Anders). He tells her that if he predeceases his mother, she will inherit no part of her vast fortune. Right then and there, Jon drops dead from a heart attack. Determined to get her share of the inheritance, Louise drops his body in the river, and then comes up with a plan to convince his mother that Jon is still alive. She writes a fake letter from Jon saying he can't make it to Castle Haloran in Ireland for the memorial service for his younger sister Kathleen, who drowned in a lake as a small child. Since then her mother, Lady Haloran (Eithne Dunne), and her two brothers Richard (William Campbell) and Billy (Bart Patton), have paid homage to her every year since her death with an annual memorial service. Once she realize how superstitious the old woman is, Louise takes some of her toys from the shrine and puts them in the river to make it seem like her ghost took them. There she finds Kathleen's corpse by a tombstone that says "Forgive Me Kathleen," swims back up for air, and is promptly hacked to pieces by an unidentified axe murderer (Sound familiar? Ask Marion Crane where you've seen that before). After Lady Haloran is attacked, Dr. Caleb, the family doctor, asks questions to find the killer, going to unusual lengths to do so, leading to a twist ending revealing who killed Kathleen. Written in 3 days and filmed in 9 days with a $40,000 budget (half of it left over from The Young Racers), Dementia 13 is a strange film indeed. The film feels rushed and harried, and the dialogue and performances are quite stilted, but the story is indeed interesting. After shooting had wrapped, Corman had Jack Hill come in and shoot some scenes with a poacher who meets the same fate as Louise; these are there only for the sake of having another axe murder and to pad the film's running time to what he considered a feature length. These could have easily been cut. A five-minute prologue was shot by yet another director, but it has never been seen on video. This Blu-ray has not located the prologue. Unlike Gus Van Sant's rote 1998 recreation of Psycho, Dementia 13 does differentiate itself from the original in a number of ways with a more exotic locale—the budget allowed Coppola to actually shoot in Ireland—and a great deal more blood and gore. And while not as stylish or sophisticated as Hitchcock's, there are signs of Coppola's budding visual style in the compositions and atmosphere. This last thing separates the film from many of the cheapie horror films of the time. There are some good ideas and a fairly compelling story; perhaps if he had had more time to polish the script and work with the actors, he would have had a bona fide horror classic. But there's still some fun to be had. The Video: 2.5/5 The box boasts that the film has been "Transferred from original 35mm elements" and has been "Digitally Restored in High Definition." But the age-old principle of "garbage in, garbage out" applies here, and the elements that Film Chest could obtain on this public domain title couldn't possibly be the original camera negative or a fine-grain protection master; those haven't been found in years. Although, thankfully, dirt and scratches are gone, the AVC-encoded transfer has been subjected to some major DNR. The image has been scrubbed clean of grain, without a hint of sharpness remaining, if there ever was any to begin with. Fine details begin to disappear in wide-angle shots. The shadows are washed out while the highlights look blown out. Had they merely removed dirt and scratches, the transfer would have been much better, but there are also some issues with the general quality of the compression. I have never seen the film until now, and from what I have been able to find about its history it has never looked or sounded good on home video. The cinematography and distinctive atmosphere are the film's chief assets, which makes this a shame. The Audio: 2/5 The film gives you two audio choices: The first is a lossy (448 kb/s) 5.1 Surround Sound track and a lossy (192 kb/s) 2.0 mono track. Both are muddy, compressed, and lacking in high-end activity, but the 5.1 track is by far the worse of the two, blatantly spreading the mono track into five speakers and adding an obnoxious delay effect in the attempt to make five channels out of two. This just exacerbates what is already wrong with the source material. Much of the dialogue has been redubbed, some of it sounding like it was done with tin cans and a string. The Extras: 1.5/5 There is a 1080p trailer for the film that can't possibly be from the original release, as the titles are obviously recreated in video. A 1080p before-and-after restoration demo shows clips from the movie demonstrating what kind of a print they had to work with. Inside the box there's a postcard containing the movie's original poster art. There is also a DVD of the film enclosed with it. Final Score: 2.5/5 Dementia 13, Francis Ford Coppola's debut film, is neither his best nor his worst. Instructed by Roger Corman to ride on Psycho's coattails, it shows an emerging visual style and a compelling story, but is let down by the flat acting and dialogue and the rushed production. Unfortunately, its Blu-Ray debut, while ostensibly better than many of the public domain DVDs, misses the mark, but I still must give Film Chest some credit for at least trying to do what they could with the problematic print they could find. It's unlikely anyone else could do better unless the original negative or some other pre-print element turns up somewhere. Recommended for fans of low-budget horror and serious scholars of Coppola and Corman who can overlook the technical shortcomings of the disc.

World leaders are mostly turning a blind eye. There isnât even serious talk about damaging the military airstrips that Sudanâs warplanes take off from before dropping bombs on civilians, or about forcing a humanitarian corridor, or about arranging airdrops of food. As a result, the only certainty is that many Nuba will starve to death in the coming months.
President Obama, you harshly criticized President Bush for failing to stand up to Sudanâs slaughter in Darfur. So now what are you going to do as Sudan kills again â on your watch?

SHARES in UK smaller companies closed strongly today, ending at the session peak. There was some positive corporate news and encouraging broker comments lifting sentiment, notably for Interactive Gaming which soared on acquisition news.At the close, the FTSE SmallCap index was 6.0 points firmer at 2,696.3 - the best levels for the day - having opened at a low of 2,690.6.Interactive Gaming was easily the top performer today, leaping nearly 49% - a rise of 3¾p -to 11½p, after the firm said it is in talks to buy a branded telephone credit bookmaker.The bookmaker, which made the announcement following the recent movement in its shares, added that the discussions are close to being finalised and due diligence is being carried out.Based on the current financial structure of the transaction the acquisition would not constitute a reverse takeover, Interactive Gaming said.Elsewhere Innobox shares jumped more than 20% in late afternoon trade following news that an investor has built up a sizeable stake in group.Innobox said that following an acquisition of 100,000 shares in the group, Stephen Desmond Wicks now holds a total of 450,000 ordinary shares, representing about 3.6% of the firm.In reaction to the stake-building, Innobox shares took on 1.37p at 8.12p.Meanwhile, director share buying was a spur to gains in Caplay today.The firm revealed that executive director Michael Feltham bought 250,000 shares or 0.13% in the company at 2.6p each today. Feltham did not previously hold shares in Caplay.Caplay shares added more than 14% in value, up 0.38p to 3p.Aerobox was also a gainer, adding 0.12p at 16p, after the air cargo container company said it remains confident that 2005 will be the first full year of significant production and sales volumes.And AEC Education, a provider of educational courses up to postgraduate level in Singapore and Malaysia, became the 1,000 company to list on the Alternative Investment Market today.Shares in AEC ended trading at 44p, a decent premium to the placing price of 41p.On a downbeat note, shares in Maisha lost 0.13p at 1.62p as news of its legal wrangles offset a narrowing of its pre-tax loss for the year to August to ?253,000, from a loss of ?395,000 a year earlier.The company is currently embroiled in a legal tussle over Pearl Micro Solutions, which it acquired in a reverse takeover in August.Reuse content

Not-back-to-School Planning
My friend, Alisa, posted recently about how learning happens in her family. So far, ours is very similar and organic.
However that annoying voice in the back of my mind telling me that I need to be more organized is getting to me.
In response, I bought a regular day planner and wrote in the homeschool park days and other activities. And then I assigned topics for most of the weeks between now and April. Some weeks have no topics (usually around holidays like Halloween and Christmas- fall and winter break!). And during the winter the topics are especially vague and simple so that if a baby shows up early/late/extra-late, I'll have a plan that is doable with low-energy levels.
To be honest, though, the topics for the rest of the year are pretty vague as well. The first couple of weeks of September are labelled "apples." And later in September the label is "fall." October gets a "pumpkin" week and also a "dinosaur" week. My plan is to reserve theme-related books a couple of weeks ahead of time at the library so they are available on the needed week. And then come up with activities. For example, I'm pretty sure we'll make an apple pie during one of the "apple" weeks.
Pretty complicated, huh? I'll probably give up on the plan about 2 weeks in, but oh well. It was kind of fun planning out a school year(ish). Gave me something to do on a Sunday afternoon.
We did sign Margaret up for a music class in September. She's been asking to play violin for over a year now and so we signed her up for a class that introduces Suzuki method as well as piano, violin, cello, flute, and harp. If she still likes violin by the end of it, we'll go with that, but if she finds she prefers another instrument, then we won't have wasted money on lessons she didn't want. In addition to that, next week we are going to a music-tasting activity where kids can pick up and try different instruments.
So starting in September, I'll start up my "this week in homeschooling" posts again. Expect pictures of pies. Lots of them. I'm pretty sure that's all my kids ever need to learn about.

text: December 20, 2011 Universe Tagged: Publication US Original-Anthology series edited by Terry Carr for the first seventeen volumes (1971-1987) and renewed by Robert Silverberg and Karen Haber for three volumes (1990-1994). This was arguably the best (and longest-lasting) of all original-anthology series in the field. Universe 1 (anth 1971) appeared while Carr was still an editor for its publisher, Ace Books. Since then it has been peripatetic, the 17 volumes of series one coming from Ace Books (#1-#2), Random House (#3-#5) and Doubleday (#6-#17); series two has come from Doubleday Foundation (#1) and Bantam Spectra (#2-#3). The further titles are Universe 2 (anth 1972), #3 (anth 1973), #4 (anth 1974), #5 (anth 1974), #6 (anth 1976), #7 (anth 1977), #8 (anth 1978), #9 (anth 1979), #10 (anth 1980), #11 (anth 1981), #12 (anth 1982), #13 (anth 1983), #14 (anth 1984), #15 (anth 1985), #16 (anth 1986) and #17 (anth 1987), plus The Best from Universe (anth 1984). The new series, edited by Silverberg with his wife Karen Haber, was Universe 1 (anth 1990), 2 (anth 1992) and 3 (anth 1994).Carr's first volume contained Robert Silverberg's Nebula-winning "Good News From the Vatican"; Silverberg was one of the series' most regular contributors, along with Gregory Benford, Gordon Eklund, R A Lafferty, Edgar Pangborn, Howard Waldrop, Ian Watson and, later, Lucius Shepard. The series thrice won the Locus Award as the year's best original anthology in 1972, 1975 and 1980. Several other stories from the series won awards. Gene Wolfe won a Nebula and a Locus Award for "The Death of Dr. Island" in #3, Benford and Eklund won a Nebula for "If The Stars Are Gods" in #4; Waldrop's "The Ugly Chickens" in #10 won both a Nebula and a World Fantasy Award; Michael Bishop won a Nebula for "The Quickening" (#11) and a Locus Award for "Her Habiline Husband" (#13); Harlan Ellison's "Paladin of the Lost Hour" (#15) won a Hugo. Even so, these awards do not truly reflect the quality of this series, which proved that Carr was one of the outstanding editors in the field; while he knew exactly what constituted good writing, and never patronized his readership by feeding them pulp, he also never lost the popular touch. The series stopped with his death. A volume dedicated to the memory of both Carr and Universe was Terry's Universe (anth 1988) edited by Beth Meacham. The Silverbergs' 1990 relaunch of the Universe series was exemplary, and very much in the Carr tradition (but much longer), with good stories from Ursula K Le Guin, Barry Malzberg, Marta Randall, Kim Stanley Robinson, Bruce Sterling, James Tiptree Jr, and others.

PURPOSE: Exacerbations of COPD result in worsening lung function and mortality. In the roflumilast pivotal trials, moderate or severe exacerbations were assessed by medical intervention (moderate=oral/parenteral corticosteroid use; severe=hospitalization/death). However, assessments of exacerbations across studies can be affected by the different definitions used. In this post hoc analysis, we examined primary outcome measure exacerbation events from the two roflumilast pivotal trials using two alternative exacerbation definitions based either on symptoms or rescue medication use.
METHODS: Data were pooled from two 52-week pivotal trials of roflumilast (500µg once-daily) in subjects with severe-to-very-severe COPD, chronic bronchitis, and a history of exacerbations. Each exacerbation event based on the primary outcome definition was analyzed using two alternative definitions. Exacerbations associated with symptoms were defined by either worsening of cough/sputum for two consecutive days within +/-5 days of moderate/severe exacerbation onset or worsening of total symptom score (≥0.5) within +/-3 days from average of 6 days prior to +/- 3 days window. Exacerbations associated with rescue medication were defined by an increase in rescue medication (≥3 puffs/day for ≥2 consecutive days) within +/-5 days of moderate/severe exacerbation onset.
RESULTS: A total of 1537 subjects received roflumilast and 1554 placebo. Based on primary outcome measure definitions there were 2978 moderate or severe exacerbations (roflumilast=1299; placebo=1679); of these the post hoc analysis found that 1833 were associated with symptoms (796 for roflumilast; 1037 for placebo) and 287 were associated with rescue medication (113 for roflumilast; 174 for placebo). The rate ratio of exacerbations associated with symptoms for roflumilast compared with placebo was 0.824 (95% CI 0.730, 0.931, p=0.0018). Similarly for exacerbations associated with rescue medication use, the rate ratio was 0.697 (95% CI 0.504, 0.964, p=0.0289). When exacerbations with two definitions were combined, the rate ratio was 0.802 (95% CI 0.712, 0.904, p=0.0003).
CONCLUSIONS: Medical intervention-based exacerbation definitions in the pivotal roflumilast trials were substantiated by this analysis of symptomatic and rescue medication exacerbation definitions.
CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: This post hoc analysis proves that roflumilast's efficacy for reducing the risk of exacerbations is robust.

text: Babe. When I posted this set of pictures of Soul Artist model Peter Johnson the other day Scott Teitler informed me that Peter used to do quite a bit of modelling back in the day and was a bit of a muse for Bruce Weber - which is why I love emails from Scott, they are always so educational. I have to say I think this guy is ageing superbly. He was always cute in the face but now he's proper man in the body. A winning combination if ever there was one.


text: Heinz, Michael Kellen and I have been working to add LILO support for booting from a LV (i.e. have /boot be an LV, and then not have ANY DOS partitions). However, the main problem that we are having is that you cannot use an LV device major/minor to do anything with liblvm. All of the liblvm functions use an LV name, it would be good to add an ioctl which takes a dev_t (e.g. 0x3a01) and returns an LV name, or maybe an lv_t which we can use with liblvm. Along the same lines, it may be good to have an ioctl which takes a dev_t and returns a vg_t of the VG which this LV is a part of. Finally, it would be good to take the code out of lvm_map() which only does block/dev remapping (which lvm_map() will call), but which also be called by an ioctl like FIBMAP. How this all fits together is: 1) LILO gets the name of a kernel image (e.g. /boot/vmlinuz) and does stat() on it to get the dev_t. 2) LILO does FIBMAP ioctl for each block in the kernel image to find the absolute block on the dev_t, and stores this into boot.map. We need to take the LV dev_t and map it to an lv_t. Then after LILO does the FIMBAP on a file block (which returns an LV relative block number), we need to call a function (ioctl) with (lv_t, lv_block) to return the PV (dev_t, block), which will then be stored in the boot.map. LILO needs the underlying dev_t, because this is translated into a BIOS drive number. All of these things are relatively easy to do, but it is useless if it is not in the standard LVM code. Mapping from a LV dev_t to an lv_t is simply checking MAJOR(dev) == LVM_MAJOR, return lv[MINOR(dev) + 1] or so. Doing the block remapping is already in lvm_map(), and just needs to be moved into a separate function that can be called via ioctl. Cheers, Andreas

William Manderstown
William Manderstown (c.1485–1552) was a Scottish philosopher and Rector of the University of Paris.
He was born in the diocese of St. Andrews, probably at the town of Manderston, Stirlingshire. Educated apparently at St. Andrews, he then attended the University of Paris, where he graduated licentiate in medicine, and became one of the school of Terminists (at whose head was John Mair). On 15 December 1525, he succeeded Jean Tixier de Ravisi as rector of the University of Paris. Before 1539 he returned to Scotland, where he and John Mair co-founded a bursary or chaplaincy in St. Salvator's, and endowed it with the rents of houses in South Street, St. Andrews. On 3 April in the same year, Manderstown witnessed a charter at Dunfermline Monastery. He also served as rector in Gogar.
In 1519, with George Lokert and Gervasius Waim,[1] he edited the Quaestiones ac decisiones physicales of Albert of Saxony.
In 1518 Manderstown published at Paris two works, Bipartitum in Morali Philosophia Opusculum, dedicated to Andrew Forman, and Tripartitum Epithoma Doctrinale; in the latter he was later said to have plagiarised from Jérôme de Hangest. Besides these, Thomas Tanner attributes to Manderstown: 1. In Ethicam Aristotelis ad Nicomachum Comment; 2. Quæstionem de Futuro Contingenti; 3. De Arte Chymica.

Call it what you want, it's still wrong.
I can call myself Senator, it's still wrong.
It falls into the same category as alcoholic. You are always an alcoholic even if you have chosen not to drink for X years.
How about Child Molester. Once you've done it you are one. No "ex" to it.
A person can be an ex-convict once released, but not ex-felon. Again, ask a legal expert. Look it up in Mirriam Webster. They've been defining words since 1742.
In the end, you can call a person that has committed the atrocities I mentioned earlier a Rosebud for all I care, in my personal opinion they still chose to act in a way that should terminate those rights. JMO.

We love Norwegian and wasn't disappointed about the Getaway. The mini suite were awesome and the bathrooms were incredibly large. Food was delicious and the server overall were great. There were a few servers that shouldn't be in the dining room since their personalities didn't reflect Norwegian service level. But, our cabin guy (Michael) cabin 11832 was excellent! He made up for any poor service we may have experienced. Thank you Norwegian for doing what you do best..creating great memories!!! The Sumpters

Tie pairs of children loosely together around two ankles (just like in a three legged race) and send them off to find their eggs as a couple.
Give them small basket to collect eggs.
Lay out a little trail of miniature eggs for each couple to collect.
They will need to develop some teamwork to be successful!

Hebrews 11:6 "And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him."
Bible quotes from NIV
God (Father, Son and Spirit) reveals to us that it is impossible to please Him without faith. Faith, somehow, is the key to all of this: Trust, faith, belief. Yet 1 Corinthians 13 reveals that without love, this all sounds a bit like noise and leaves us as being nothing. To love, to truly love in spite of what you see or hear, seems to require faith. On the surface, it seems that faith does not require love, yet love does seem to require faith. Love is the highest form of equity or currency in the Kingdom of God. When we are struggling to love someone, to truly love, care and show deep concern and compassion, then we must ask for faith. Having the faith required to love is faith to move mountains.
"It seems that faith does not require love, yet love does seem to require faith"
The faith that is required to please God is not necessarily the faith that is needed to walk on water, to heal the sick or the blind or to safely walk in dark places, but to love unconditionally, to love "the Elephant Man" so to speak; to love our enemies. That requires faith beyond walking on water or even raising the dead itself! Yes, it does please God we have that kind of faith to do the things mentioned above, but if we are not careful, we will stop at those things and not go any further in our relationship with God and our fellow human beings.
"Love is the highest form of equity or currency in the Kingdom of God."
2 Kings 4 tells a story of Elisha, how he dealt with a wealthy woman and about human connections. With all of his dealings with the woman, "the Shunammite" as he distantly calls her, he always sent his servant Gehazi to speak with her and get what he needs, even if she is standing right there in front of him! Then one day, the woman's son died, which was a son that was promised to her by Elisha via Gehazi. When the woman rode quickly to bring the bad news to Elisha, she passed up Gehazi whom Elisha sent to greet her. She went straight to Elisha and told him the news herself. So Elisha sent Gehazi, who took Elishas' staff to lay on the childs face, to raise the child. It did not work. The son laid stone cold dead. So not only did Elisha have to go to the son himself, but personally laid on his body, face to face, before God allowed the miracle of life to take hold! Elisha had to be taught that he needed to be more personal, face to face, not just send a servant to do all his bidding. God wanted Elisha to have a personal relationship with the woman, her husband and son. But in the end, Elisha still told Gehazi to "Call the Shunammite" and let her know the son is alive. Oh well.
God will heal the sick and raise the dead eventually. God really doesn't need us for that. But love is eternal, it is forever. Love is something that starts when we are children. Love grows within us, as we interact with humanity from the time we began to see outside of our bodies and minds. It starts at home, church and community and then the world. As we began to expand our horizons across the globe, we run into love challenges. Those challenges usually begin at home. Don't make the mistake of thinking that arguing and sometimes fighting with our siblings or our mates is lack of love. Sometimes it is fear that we may not love them or more to the point, that they might not love us. It is in fearing that we may lose them that cause us to fight. But we are fighting the wrong enemy. The real enemy here is fear. Marriages break up, not just for the lack of love per se, though that is failing us, but because of fear! Fear is the real enemy here, and when we fear someone, we fear we are losing our love for them.
1 John 4:18 "There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love." Fear is an invisible enemy that tortures our souls, minds and hearts. It threatens us with punishment. It stops us from acting in faith. We may use faith to overcome fear, but when we also misuse love to excuse our fear, are we not making excuses as to why we hold back and not do something we know we need to do? Example: "I love them enough to not do something because I am afraid it might offend them or cause them to lose faith". We use excuses for fear to take precedence over love and faith. We have more faith in our fear and use the excuse of love as the reason we live in fear and not act in faith! What a paradox!
This is why I feel the gospel that is preached in some places, which is often laced with fear, is not a gospel at all. It is a fear based religion and that is not what Jesus taught or meant for us live in.
How can we have faith in fear, which fear is the opposite of love, which in turn requires faith? When you have faith in fear, then you have no faith in love. God is Love. His Love requires faith on our part to not only believe in and trust, but to live out in our lives. Love requires faith that has to be worked and built every day. It requires lots of prayer. When the disciples had trouble casting out a certain demon, Jesus said this particular kind of demon required lots of prayer and fasting in preparation. See Mark 9:29. To cast out demons requires faith. True faith requires love. At the time, the disciples thought the ability to cast out demons goes along with the ability to walk on water, heal the sick, or move mountains. If love had taken hold on these disciples, then they would have had the faith to cast out this particular demon. Not just because they were laced with "power", but their love would have been able to conquer all things.This would have been not only the faith of God, but the Love of God as well.
That is the faith that pleases God.

1 Peter 4:8 "Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins."
If love covers a multitude of sins, then where is the accusation? Where is the accuser of the brethren? There is no accuser, there are no more demons. Gone is the evil, gone is the fear. Faith and Love has prevailed.
