Dodge City officials grapple with statute display

DODGE CITY, Kan. (AP) -- Dodge City officials are not quite sure just where to put two massive sculptures donated by the Dennis Hopper Art Trust to the city where its namesake was born and raised.
The pieces -- known as La Salsa Man and Mobil Man -- are 26 and 21 feet tall respectively and embody a style that the trust administrator has called a "large, impactful and a defiant blend of Californian and Southwestern culture mixed with Hollywood grandeur."
County Commissioners unanimously voted to put the statutes at the special events center, while the city commissioners unanimously voted against the placement, suggesting instead a park in town to display them. The issue is expected to resurface at another city commission meeting.
The Dodge City Globe (http://bit.ly/YAP24G) reported that Hopper -- who some say lived life at the cross-section of art and film -- had a rocky relationship with his hometown. He was born on May 17, 1936, and the Dust Bowl played a big part in his earliest memories.
"Born in Dodge City, Kansas, and brought up on a Midwest farm, Hopper often emphasized that his childhood shaped his artistic foundations. Invariably, this was integrated into every aspect of his life fueling not only his artistic vision but also his prolific film choices," said Taylor Livingston, art administrator of the trust.
The arts council has agreed to accept the donation and is working on details of getting the large pieces to Dodge City, locating them for exhibition and introducing them to the public. An unveiling and reception is planned for May 17.
Hopper's first two films were "Rebel Without a Cause" and "Giant," both starring James Dean. He also landed parts in "The Sons of Katie Elder," "Cool Hand Luke" and "True Grit." In 1968, Hopper joined friends Peter Fonda and Jack Nicholson for the innovative "Easy Rider."
He starred as the iconic villain Frank Booth in David Lynch's enigmatic film, "Blue Velvet," and received an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actor in his role as an alcoholic basketball lover in "Hoosiers." His last movie appearance was as the voice of Tony, the leader of a wolf pack in the 3D computer animated film "Alpha and Omega."
With his health failing, Hopper was honored in March 2010 with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. He died later that year at age 74.
During his film career, Hopper also had pursued another of his passions -- art. He had dabbled in Abstract Expressionism art. In the 1960s, became a Neo-Dada artist, working with found objects and making oblique artistic comments about the consumer culture. Throughout his life, he produced and collected modern art.
As a photographer, he was known for his casual portraits of celebrities like Andy Warhol and Jane Fonda.
A new biography, "Hopper: A Journey into the American Dream," was recently published by HarperCollins Publishers.
In a radio interview on "Fresh Air" on WHYY-FM out of Philadelphia in December of 1995, Hopper jokingly told host Terry Gross that because he grew up during the Dust Bowl, the first light he saw was from a movie projector instead of the sun.
But at times, he spoke somewhat wistfully about his youth in Dodge City -- talking about the Saturday matinees his grandmother took him to, instilling a love of the movies, and the trains he saw going through town heading West.
Growing up, he had wanted to get on one of those trains and go see the Pacific Ocean.
But when he finally got there, he was disappointed. The ocean looked just like the waving wheat fields with which he had grown up.

Era ends, but history lives
By Craig Muder
For baseball fans born between 1960 and 1980, his story was the first you committed to memory.
"The Giants win the pennant! The Giants win the pennant!"
On Monday, that story ended with the death of Bobby Thomson. But the legend lives forever.
I can still see the pages of my dog-eared copy of the David S. Neft & Richard M. Cohen World Series encyclopedia. A Christmas gift from my parents in 1979, it provided my first taste of the baseball statistics that would one day fill my mind. In that book, each Fall Classic from 1903 through 1978 is preserved – along with season stats from the two Series teams.
But as a bonus, Neft & Cohen provided box scores and play-by-play of season tiebreakers, including the most famous of them all: The 1951 three-game classic between the Giants and the Dodgers.
It was like finding a dollar in the couch cushions – something extra to be devoured. I poured through those box scores over and over, dreaming of becoming Thomson while agonizing over the fate of Ralph Branca.
No matter what the future holds for baseball, the past will always remain king. That time, that city, that moment, that comeback… It was all too perfect – a scene never to be repeated.
The Autumn Glory exhibit at the Baseball Hall of Fame serves as a monument to Thomson's pennant-winning homer with an exhibit dedicated to the Oct. 3, 1951 Shot Heard 'Round the World. Thomson's bat, cap and spikes from that day are on display, as well as a rosin bag used by Branca. They serve as a reminder of the greatest homer ever struck in major league competition.
The Museum's Library also contains a copy of that Neft & Cohen chronology, a book that started so many on the path to baseball adoration.
In so many ways, that path began with a home run by Bobby Thomson.
Craig Muder is director of communications for the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum.

At this moment I, and half the country, are reeling in shock over Nick Griffin's outstandingly hate-filled twitter attack on Michael Black and John Morgan, who recently won a suit against a Berkshire Bed and Breakfast.
Brief backstory: Black and Morgan were denied the right to share a double bed by the B&B's owner, Susanne Wilkinson, as she felt that would violate her own moral compass. They sued, were awarded damages, and in an incomprehensible move, Griffin tweeted their address along with some bigoted bravado and hints of a mob.
Now, I am never a fan of people enforcing their values on others. As far as I'm concerned, Susanne Wilkinson is free to believe and act as she chooses, but her failure to recognise that she in turn, should grant that freedom to others is callous and narrow minded. However, the owner of any business has the right to operate that business in anyway they see fit; management's right to refuse service is pretty standard.
So she may have had the right to make her own choices about the Bed and Breakfast she owned, and by the same token, Michael Black and John Morgan, feeling themselves discriminated against, had every right to complain. In fact, given that equal marriage is still so hotly and unfairly contested, these particular fights are ever more important.
The actions of both, I think, are understandable, and the ruling of the judge on the case simply that: one decision on one situation.
Until Griffin.
What makes his comments particularly damaging is his vile insinuation that campaigning for equal treatment of gay couples is indication of being against straight ones. It seems to often happen that this is a go-to defense move – feminists hate men, artists think sport is stupid, if you drink tea you're anti-coffee. It's illogical and has the dangerous effect of reinforcing ignorance with fear. It puts us into camps, forces us into war, it's us against them, and both can't make it through alive.
I believe strongly that this kind of attitude is responsible for the very worst human behaviour.
There is no "us" and no "them" – we are just one glorious mess of mostly bemused humans bumbling our way through lives were secretly sure we're supposed to understand better than we do. We are all lost. We are all wrong. Our only hope is to be kind to each other. To be understanding of what we do not share. To be accepting of what we do not understand.
We are in this together, all of us, every one, and we cannot let the ill-concieved bluster of a frightened little man make us think differently.

If you're asking me personally, it would be ridiculous for me to accept that as I have no evidence it is true, but if you personally have strong evidence that that is the case, then belief would be logical.
I don't want to derail the thread, but your response brought a question to mind. Since we are talking about the spiritual in these threads, is it logical to expect the type of evidence that the physical usually provides. Wouldn't it's evidence, by its very nature , be different.
In my opinion, we'd first need to define "spiritual", and then determine whether we can prove such a thing/concept exists, in a reliable manner (as an atheist, I doubt there is such a thing so the question would be moot). If we can't, then such a realm can only be accepted on faith.
What kind of evidence would you expect for the spiritual, and how could you validate it? One only needs to look at the vast differences in spiritual beliefs that exist, to see that determining truth based on things like faith, emotions, gut feelings and the like is never going to work accurately.

Any chance you could put the color pallete back in for regular replies and just keep them hidden until clicked on? I kind of still use it on occasion. Just a me thing.

Episode Information
This is an unusual year in Connecticut politics in so many ways. Let's focus for a moment on two.
It's unusual to have so few incumbents. Incumbents have so many advantages that it's big news when they lose.
Although all five of our Congressional races feature incumbents, almost nothing else does. Senator, governor, attorney general and secretary of state are all open offices, which means the candidates start from something a little closer to a level playing field.
And this election is, I believe, the beginning of a sort of post-journalism era. The influence of old-line journalism is falling, and nothing is riding to replace it. Reporting and commentary don't seem te move the needle very much, which makes me think paid advertising will be of paramount importance. And maybe also old-fashioned in-person contact with voters.
My panelists may think otherwise.

Weekend House on Lake Superior, Schroeder, Minn.
The home's two black volumes provide a strong contrast to the often-snowy landscape.

The home's two black volumes provide a strong contrast to the often-snowy landscape.
Architect and owner Julie Snow, FAIA, used black Skatelite as the exterior cladding material.
Plenty of built-in storage helps keep the interiors looking pristine.

The house sits on a raised platform, allowing water to flow underneath it and down to the lake.
A white dining table runs through the main house, parallel to Lake Superior. The home's quiet design directs attention to the lake year-round, at all times of day.
The main house and studio are pulled apart to frame a view of the lake.
Kitchen appliances are either tucked out of view or designed to blend into the white interiors. "I wanted the kitchen to disappear," says Snow. "It keeps the house still."

This weekend home in Minnesota exhibits an intimate knowledge of its forested surroundings. "They know the environment they're working in," said one judge. Its architect, Julie Snow, FAIA, owns the house with her husband, a mechanical engineer. She designed the building to rest on a platform, so as not to disturb the site's natural water runoff patterns. Inside and out, it's supremely uncluttered, the better to highlight Lake Superior views. "It's designed to be about being in that place in the summer, winter, fall, and spring," Snow notes. "But winter is pretty spectacular."

Tuesday 7 May 2013
Small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) in the capital will benefit from a new public fund designed to help them access credit, it has been claimed.
Andrew Palmer, director for London at the Confederation of British Industry (CBI), welcomed news of a £40 million fund to encourage jobs and growth, announced by Boris Johnson last week.
"With youth unemployment in London too high, it's encouraging to see the Mayor backing skills development and job creation in some of the capital's most vibrant sectors," he stated.
Mr Palmer said the focus on supporting SMBs to "overcome the hurdle of accessing finance" will help them to grow and fulfil their potential.
The new funding comes as part of proposals to invest the second tranche of a £111 million fund provided by the government for the London economy, reports the BBC.
According to the news provider, the Mayor of London has so far spent only £2 million of the £70 million available to his London Enterprise Panel in the first tranche.
Mr Johnson said SMBs would be some of the principle beneficiaries of the fund, which will enable "significant support" for SMBs.
"[This is] just one way we are working to unlock potential and provide jobs for our growing city," he stated.
The new funding plan has also been welcomed by the Federation of Small Businesses (FSB).
Steve Warwick, regional chairman for London, said the credit crunch has meant that many businesses have struggled to get the finance that they need to operate their enterprise effectively.
"Our research shows that five in ten businesses in London were turned down for a loan or overdraft in the first quarter of 2013," he stated.
"This needs to be addressed as a matter of urgency, which is why it is vital that the scheme announced today is attached to the soon to be created Business Bank which will house a myriad of similar funds."

Judges' Pick
SHELLter is a reactive proposal which reflects the aftermath of a natural
disaster. The aim is to create an enclosure which addresses three main
1 – STAY - Housing for those left without adequate accommodation
2 – STOW - The enclosure should be lightweight, transportable and reusable
3 – SHAPE - A skilled workforce cannot be guaranteed therefore the proposal should be easily erected by aid workers.
STAY - People left without homes should not be deprived of dignity or privacy. This proposal allows relief as well as comfort and a level of security not often afforded to those victims of natural disasters. The shelter is designed to house 4 to 6 people but is modular, therefore may be adapted to accommodate a larger number. A small area of outside space is incorporated where it may be possible to site a small generator for power. Sanitary accommodation will be incorporated as a pod which is inserted within the ribs of the structure.
STOW - A membrane is bonded to hollow blocks which can be folded away to store and transport prior to erection or when the temporary shelter is no longer required. The hollow blocks are proposed to be made of a recycled plastic material; both lightweight and durable.
SHAPE - The membrane and blocks fold up and around a frame and, depending on the location, can be filled with either material and debris from the disaster site for weight at the base and for insulation around
the perimeter walls, or filled with sand and insulative material transported to the site if necessary.
Ribs of strong reinforced components within a recycled plastic encasure are threaded down spindle, connecting elements to erect the skeletal structure. The shell of membrane and plastic blocks are wrapped around the skeletal structure to weatherproof the structure as far as is practically possible. The membrane is lapped over the top of the spindle in each section to achieve a weather seal. The structure is intended to be able to be erected easily by unskilled people, aid workers and local residents.

News Z-615 VOL. XXIX, No. 17 BRYN MAWR and WAYNE, PA., WEDNESDAY, MARCH 3, 1943 Copyright, Trustees of Bryn Mawr College, 1943 PRICE 10 CENTS Wright Outlines Motives of War, Urges Federalism Professor of International Relations Opens War Assemblies Goodhart, March 1.�"We can only have a practicably brganized world politically through continu- ants of the idea of federalism," stated Dr. Quincy Wright. Stress- ing "the inadequacy of man's poli- tical organization of the world" as a cause of war, Dr. Wright advo- cated a system of federalism with "the maximum of independence and autonomy among separate units to maintain peace and moderate free- dom of trade." Dr. Wright, professor of Inter- national Relations at the Univer- sity of Chicago, opened the series of war assemblies at Bryn Mawr with his discussion of some aspects of the causes of war, with specific reference to the present war. War, Dr. Wright asserted, arises not from a "single germ, but from a i iiiimiiictl on raje Foil. Calendar Thursday, March 4 Dr. Wolfgang Kohler, The Naturalistic Interpreta- tion of Man.

The general theme of the show was best ex- pressed by Dr. Herben's statement that "College is the metamorpho- sis from cuckoo to butterfly." Cur- rent campus life provided the fac- ulty with everything from For- tune's article and the Maypole dance, to the USO, the Air Corps, and Madge Daly. The Three Sis- ters and Dr. Herben's Baccalaure- ate address were the main features. There was a tendency for the show to drag as a result of an in- termission followed by the auction and a slow-moving act. This was increased by a large part of the dialogue being inaudible. It was the clever songs and dances, skill- fully accompanied by Mr. Lafford, of Haverford, that maintained the spontaneous spirit throughout. It was a stroke of genius to turn Tchekov's play about the dullness in the life of three intellectual sis- ters into a satire of Bryn Mawr. Continued on I'hcp Three Miss Taylor to Give Address on Fascism In Coming Assembly Fascism: Three Ideologies will be the subject of an address by Plan Announced By Miss McBride Preparation for Post-War Reconstruction Work Arranged Goodhart, February 26.�A new plan for Interdepartmental Majors, enabling students to prepare for work in war and post-war recon- struction, was outlined by Presi- dent Katherine McBride last Fri- day. Under the new system, based on the best advice from heads of agencies and governmental com- mittees, three planned majors are open to Freshmsn and Sophomores. They are International Administra- te and Reconstruction, Commun- ity Organization and Reconstruc- tion, and Languages for Recon- struction. Each fi?'d includes work in so- 1 cial sciences and languages. The requirements ate the same for all, so that the major can be changed with ease.

Refugee & Asylum Policy
Recent Activity
In its newest five-year "roadmap" for justice and home affairs policy, the European Union has made migration a priority area. But while the Stockholm program offers plenty of detail on issues like illegal migration and asylum, it offers few specifics as to the final goal. MPI's Elizabeth Collett analyzes the program's action points and looks at challenges facing its implementation.
In the United States, asylum on the basis of sexual orientation was first granted in 1994. Swetha Sridharan of the Council on Foreign Relations explains why U.S. immigration law focuses on sexual identity rather than sexual conduct, and what this distinction has meant for asylum seekers.
Counterterrorism policies have had an unintended, negative effect on asylum and refugee resettlement in the United States. Swetha Sridharan of the Council on Foreign Relations explains the origins of the material-support bar, which groups it has affected, and how the U.S. government is addressing the problem.
Migrants' networks and relatively small travel distances help explain migration from one developing country to another. Dilip Ratha and William Shaw of the World Bank look at these and other reasons for and effects of South-South migration.
Approximately 50,000 of Germany's 170,000 tolerated asylum seekers are expected to will qualify for a residency permit under a law passed in March 2007. MPI's Eric Leise reports.

The U.S. refugee protection system, while generous in many respects, has become less robust over the last two decades. The unique and often diverse needs of emerging refugee populations have exposed severe limitations in the standard resettlement approach.This report examines U.S. legal and policy responses to those seeking protection and addresses the barriers, gaps, and opportunities that exist.
The conference offered law and policy analysis and discussion on cutting-edge immigration issues. Featured panelists included high-ranking government officials, academics, advocates, and other immigration experts.
Please join us for this discussion on the situation of Colombian refugees in Panama and Ecuador; their living situations; legal status; their access to employment, health care, or education; and the treatment of groups of particular concern, like Afro-Colombian refugees, unaccompanied Colombian minors, and refugee women.
Public Policy Institute of California (PPIC) research fellows Magnus Lofstrom and Sarah Bohn, and UC Berkeley professor of public policy Steven Raphael are issuing a new report that examines whether LAWA achieved its primary aims: reducing the unauthorized population, deterring their employment opportunities and improving employment outcomes of competing authorized workers. Their analysis also investigates whether Arizona's legislation induced a shift away from formal employment.
This discussion is an overview of a report undertaken by a team at the Columbia University School of International Public Affairs which examines the U.S. refugee resettlement Program and offers a strong set of recommendations and observations about the program.
The conference, co-sponsored by Georgetown Law, Catholic Legal Immigration Network, Inc., and the Migration Policy Institute, focused immigration and refugee law and policy.
Breakfast briefing with T. Alexander Aleinikoff, Demetrios G. Papademetriou, and Kathleen Newland.
The situation in Iraq remains extremely precarious for civilians, with additional thousands being displaced by violence and persecution even as refuge becomes harder to find – either internally or in neighboring countries. This report looks at the refugee situation in the country.

If it's any coincidence, when Dexter scans the bomb's impact zone (strip "Otto Time") there are only 4 points of interest; Bell, Buttercup, Blossom and the bomb. It may be that he can only see their power levels or life force or something, but it could also just be showing people/objects in general meaning that both Sam and Gir are either dead or just gone.
Blood Lord wrote:It's just... there's something wrong with the idea that the sword can't hurt Blossom or Buttercup. It's been predicted that the sword won't have an effect on them since Sam first stole it from Jack. That concept has been seen from well over a mile away. But everything else BR has been doing, we've been having a hellish time with, like the bomb for example.
So would BR have something this easy to see for this long, or is this just how the chips fell and he went with it?
Personally, I'd like to give the man a bit more credit than that and guess that something else is going on. This just seems too easy for these comics to say the sword won't have an effect on them.

Anna Meadows, MD
Last Modified: December 2, 2001
I am a clinical psychologist. I am seeing a child in play therapy who has received treatment for leukemia since the age of 4 years. She is now seven (treatment has been effective and stopped) and completing grade 1. Her teachers are concerned with her academic progress. On psychological tests her scores show a low I.Q. However, I am concerned that this is not a true reflection of her potential. I have taken into consideration that she has often missed school or felt ill in school due to the treatment, therefore not having received the same amount of stimulation as other children her age. Plus, she has had to deal with the emotional trauma of having this disease. I would like to know if you have any information that would help me understand the effects of chemotherapy on a child's intellectual development. We need to make educational decisions that will be best for her and are trying to develop a prognosis by gathering as much information as we can.
If you could help in this regard I would be very thankful and appreciative.
Anna Meadows, MD, pediatric oncologist at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and Director of the Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania's Survivorship Research Program, responds:
This child's academic potential depends on several things: her innate ability and whether or not her treatment included cranial radiation (and the dose) or intravenous methotrexate. Missing school, especially before the 1st grade, in my experience, doesn't change the IQ but emotional problems (not to be assumed necessarily, but as measured by the TAT or other tests) and doses of cranial radiation greater than 20 cGy can affect test scores. It may still be too early to assess this child's potential.
We need to know more about this child and her family in order to make any further suggestions.

LED Lighting
LED lighting is a long-lasting, energy-efficient alternative to traditional incandescent and halogen options. LEDs (light-emitting diodes) have been around since the mid-20th century, but have only recently been used in residential and commercial lighting applications. Here at Westside Wholesale, we maintain an ever-growing selection of LED lights, including bulbs, downlights, rope lights, track lighting, street lights, flashlights, and much more.
Our collection of LED lights here at Westside Wholesale come from some of the most innovative brands in the industry. LED bulbs and lighting are most frequently used as eco-conscious replacements for existing fixtures. It's a popular choice in these cases because most LED lights will save enough money in power costs to effectively pay for themselves when compared to non-LED alternatives.
However, LED lights are becoming more popular in new construction applications. This is because homeowners and contractors know that they're reliable and cost-efficient. For products with more specific uses like flashlights, street lights, and exit signs, for example, Westside Wholesale knows that customers prefer LEDs because of their reduced maintenance and steady light output.
Because of their energy efficiency, most LED lighting products will have two different power ratings, wattage and wattage equivalency. Its wattage is the actual power used by the LED light. On the other hand, equivalency refers to the wattage used by its incandescent or halogen counterparts. This is helpful when finding replacement bulbs or for simply figuring out what kind of output to expect from your bulb.
Feel free to contact Westside Wholesale if you have any questions about LED lighting or which LED light is right for your installation.

How to Select
LED Lighting is the most innovative form of lighting on the market today, saving as much as 80% on electrical costs versus conventional lighting.
When choosing your lighting, consider:
- Voltage:
- Low Voltage – low voltage(usually 12v) lighting is typically used for under cabinet lighting, outdoor lighting, or landscape lighting. Ambient lighting sometimes uses low voltage fixtures as well. However, a low voltage fixture will not operate properly in line voltage connections. If connected to a line voltage (120v), it may cause electrical fire or damage to the fixture and surrounding area.
- Line Voltage – Line voltage, is the common term for standard 120v power. Standard household electricity is line voltage. You should not connect low voltage fixtures to line voltage connections. If you plan to install lighting inside your home besides accent lighting, you will most likely use line voltage lighting.
Commercial Grade:
If the installation is a commercial building, consider using Commercial Grade fixtures which can handle heavier duty electrical currents and higher voltage. These fixtures are safer for regular use in commercial situations.
- Insulated Ceiling:
If you ceiling has additional insulation, please consider using a housing that is suitable for this. At Westside Wholesale, we offer models that are suitable. If you do not have insulation in your ceiling, we also have models that fit your application.
- Interconnectable:
Certain LED lighting models are designed to be interconnected to a series of lighting for dimming or to connect to a lighting control module.
- Color:
When refining by color, you will notice that it refers to several color variables whether it be the finish on the metal trim, or the color of the LED elements.
For additional assistance in selecting the LED lighting that is suitable for your application, contact our Customer Service Department through Live Chat or by calling 1-877-998-9378.

Parents of troubled teens, and their teachers and counselors, live with the likelihood that their rapidly maturing children might soon face the court system. Suddenly the child who seemed so full of promise might face the very real prospect of facing a juvenile court referral. From that point, the probability of having a child in the justice system is a nagging threat. The fear is always lurking that their "golden child", their beloved son or daughter, might soon face expulsion for bullying, or become a defendant in a bullying case. Some, who fear that the taunts of their children's classmates may be true, and that their child might really be gay, lesbian, or transgendered, worry that their kids might be bullied and suffer lifelong scars, or even death.
[amazon_enhanced asin="0979841127″ /]In 21st Century America, the threat of violence is always a possibility. Even middle-class, peaceful families know that they are not immune. Not only in America, but in Canada, England, Australia, New Zealand…in any so-called developed nation around the world, parents walk a thin line between responding to classroom discipline and facing an escalation in the system's treatment of their child.
At fairnessworks.p1r8.net, we are looking for ways of bringing concerned parents into constructive contact — early in the process, before "juvie" or jail — with methods of intervention and conflict resolution which can save the future of their troubled teens. The goal of this blog is to link parents like these with well-established methods of responding to youth crises, such as Restorative Justice and peacemaking circles. Creating a Culture of Care in the schools is a possible solution, with practitioners who know how to implement these programs. Hope for restoration is not a false hope, and the possibility of linking to alternatives to punitive and retributive justice is a viable option.
We include a wealth of links to alternative methods at fairnessworks. Look at the categories and tags in the column at right, click on them, read and follow up on them, if you are the parent (or concerned adult) in the life of a troubled teenager. Post your comments here and reach out for help. If you have read this far, you are a "seat-of-the-pants peacemaker," and you are NOT alone. You are the person we want to reach at fairnessworks.p1r8.net.
As the editor and publisher of this blog, I am not the counselor you might need. But I will do my best to link you to the help you are seeking. Remember, you are not alone.

Solve stiff differential equations; low order method
[T,Y] = solver(odefun,tspan,y0)
[T,Y] = solver(odefun,tspan,y0,options)
[T,Y,TE,YE,IE] = solver(odefun,tspan,y0,options)
sol = solver(odefun,[t0
This page contains an overview of the solver functions: ode23, ode45, ode113, ode15s, ode23s, ode23t, and ode23tb. You can call any of these solvers by substituting the placeholder, solver, with any of the function names.
The following table describes the input arguments to the solvers.
A function handle that evaluates the right side of the differential equations. All solvers solve systems of equations in the form y′ = f(t,y) or problems that involve a mass matrix, M(t,y)y′ = f(t,y). The ode23s solver can solve only equations with constant mass matrices. ode15s and ode23t can solve problems with a mass matrix that is singular, i.e., differential-algebraic equations (DAEs). | |
A vector specifying the interval of integration, [t0,tf]. The solver imposes the initial conditions at tspan(1), and integrates from tspan(1) to tspan(end). To obtain solutions at specific times (all increasing or all decreasing), use tspan = [t0,t1,...,tf]. For tspan vectors with two elements [t0 tf], the solver returns the solution evaluated at every integration step. For tspan vectors with more than two elements, the solver returns solutions evaluated at the given time points. The time values must be in order, either increasing or decreasing. | |
Specifying tspan with more than two elements does not affect the internal time steps that the solver uses to traverse the interval from tspan(1) to tspan(end). All solvers in the ODE suite obtain output values by means of continuous extensions of the basic formulas. Although a solver does not necessarily step precisely to a time point specified in tspan, the solutions produced at the specified time points are of the same order of accuracy as the solutions computed at the internal time points. Specifying tspan with more than two elements has little effect on the efficiency of computation, but for large systems, affects memory management. | |
A vector of initial conditions. | |
Structure of optional parameters that change the default integration properties. This is the fourth input argument. [t,y] = solver(odefun,tspan,y0,options) You can create options using the odeset function. See odeset for details. |
The following table lists the output arguments for the solvers.
T | Column vector of time points. |
Y | Solution array. Each row in Y corresponds to the solution at a time returned in the corresponding row of T. |
TE | The time at which an event occurs. |
YE | The solution at the time of the event. |
IE | The index i of the event function that vanishes. |
sol | Structure to evaluate the solution. |
[T,Y] = solver(odefun,tspan,y0) with tspan = [t0 tf] integrates the system of differential equations y′ = f(t,y) from time t0 to tf with initial conditions y0. The first input argument, odefun, is a function handle. The function, f = odefun(t,y), for a scalar t and a column vector y, must return a column vector f corresponding to f(t,y). Each row in the solution array Y corresponds to a time returned in column vector T. To obtain solutions at the specific times t0, t1,...,tf (all increasing or all decreasing), use tspan = [t0,t1,...,tf].
Parameterizing Functions explains how to provide additional parameters to the function fun, if necessary.
[T,Y] = solver(odefun,tspan,y0,options) solves as above with default integration parameters replaced by property values specified in options, an argument created with the odeset function. Commonly used properties include a scalar relative error tolerance RelTol (1e-3 by default) and a vector of absolute error tolerances AbsTol (all components are 1e-6 by default). If certain components of the solution must be nonnegative, use the odeset function to set the NonNegative property to the indices of these components. See odeset for details.
[T,Y,TE,YE,IE] = solver(odefun,tspan,y0,options) solves as above while also finding where functions of (t,y), called event functions, are zero. For each event function, you specify whether the integration is to terminate at a zero and whether the direction of the zero crossing matters. Do this by setting the 'Events' property to a function, e.g., events or @events, and creating a function [value,isterminal,direction] = events(t,y). For the ith event function in events,
value(i) is the value of the function.
isterminal(i) = 1, if the integration is to terminate at a zero of this event function and 0 otherwise.
direction(i) = 0 if all zeros are to be computed (the default), +1 if only the zeros where the event function increases, and -1 if only the zeros where the event function decreases.
Corresponding entries in TE, YE, and IE return, respectively, the time at which an event occurs, the solution at the time of the event, and the index i of the event function that vanishes.
sol = solver(odefun,[t0 tf],y0...) returns a structure that you can use with deval to evaluate the solution at any point on the interval [t0,tf]. You must pass odefun as a function handle. The structure sol always includes these fields:
Steps chosen by the solver. | |
Each column sol.y(:,i) contains the solution at sol.x(i). | |
Solver name. |
If you specify the Events option and events are detected, sol also includes these fields:
Points at which events, if any, occurred. sol.xe(end) contains the exact point of a terminal event, if any. | |
Solutions that correspond to events in sol.xe. | |
Indices into the vector returned by the function specified in the Events option. The values indicate which event the solver detected. |
If you specify an output function as the value of the OutputFcn property, the solver calls it with the computed solution after each time step. Four output functions are provided: odeplot, odephas2, odephas3, odeprint. When you call the solver with no output arguments, it calls the default odeplot to plot the solution as it is computed. odephas2 and odephas3 produce two- and three-dimensional phase plane plots, respectively. odeprint displays the solution components on the screen. By default, the ODE solver passes all components of the solution to the output function. You can pass only specific components by providing a vector of indices as the value of the OutputSel property. For example, if you call the solver with no output arguments and set the value of OutputSel to [1,3], the solver plots solution components 1 and 3 as they are computed.
For the stiff solvers ode15s, ode23s, ode23t, and ode23tb, the Jacobian matrix ∂f/∂y is critical to reliability and efficiency. Use odeset to set Jacobian to @FJAC if FJAC(T,Y) returns the Jacobian ∂f/∂y or to the matrix ∂f/∂y if the Jacobian is constant. If the Jacobian property is not set (the default), ∂f/∂y is approximated by finite differences. Set the Vectorized property 'on' if the ODE function is coded so that odefun(T,[Y1,Y2 ...]) returns [odefun(T,Y1),odefun(T,Y2) ...]. If ∂f/∂y is a sparse matrix, set the JPattern property to the sparsity pattern of ∂f/∂y, i.e., a sparse matrix S with S(i,j) = 1 if the ith component of f(t,y) depends on the jth component of y, and 0 otherwise.
The solvers of the ODE suite can solve problems of the form M(t,y)y′ = f(t,y), with time- and state-dependent mass matrix M. (The ode23s solver can solve only equations with constant mass matrices.) If a problem has a mass matrix, create a function M = MASS(t,y) that returns the value of the mass matrix, and use odeset to set the Mass property to @MASS. If the mass matrix is constant, the matrix should be used as the value of the Mass property. Problems with state-dependent mass matrices are more difficult:
If the mass matrix does not depend on the state variable y and the function MASS is to be called with one input argument, t, set the MStateDependence property to 'none'.
If the mass matrix depends weakly on y, set MStateDependence to 'weak' (the default); otherwise, set it to 'strong'. In either case, the function MASS is called with the two arguments (t,y).
If there are many differential equations, it is important to exploit sparsity:
Return a sparse M(t,y).
Supply the sparsity pattern of ∂f/∂y using the JPattern property or a sparse ∂f/∂y using the Jacobian property.
For strongly state-dependent M(t,y), set MvPattern to a sparse matrix S with S(i,j) = 1 if for any k, the (i,k) component of M(t,y) depends on component j of y, and 0 otherwise.
If the mass matrix M is singular, then M(t,y)y′ = f(t,y) is a system of differential algebraic equations. DAEs have solutions only when y0 is consistent, that is, if there is a vector yp0 such that M(t0,y0)yp0 = f(t0,y0). The ode15s and ode23t solvers can solve DAEs of index 1 provided that y0 is sufficiently close to being consistent. If there is a mass matrix, you can use odeset to set the MassSingular property to 'yes', 'no', or 'maybe'. The default value of 'maybe' causes the solver to test whether the problem is a DAE. You can provide yp0 as the value of the InitialSlope property. The default is the zero vector. If a problem is a DAE, and y0 and yp0 are not consistent, the solver treats them as guesses, attempts to compute consistent values that are close to the guesses, and continues to solve the problem. When solving DAEs, it is very advantageous to formulate the problem so that M is a diagonal matrix (a semi-explicit DAE).
Solver | Problem Type | Order of Accuracy | When to Use |
Nonstiff | Medium | Most of the time. This should be the first solver you try. | |
Nonstiff | Low | For problems with crude error tolerances or for solving moderately stiff problems. | |
Nonstiff | Low to high | For problems with stringent error tolerances or for solving computationally intensive problems. | |
Stiff | Low to medium | If ode45 is slow because the problem is stiff. | |
Stiff | Low | If using crude error tolerances to solve stiff systems and the mass matrix is constant. | |
Moderately Stiff | Low | For moderately stiff problems if you need a solution without numerical damping. | |
Stiff | Low | If using crude error tolerances to solve stiff systems. |
The algorithms used in the ODE solvers vary according to order of accuracy [6] and the type of systems (stiff or nonstiff) they are designed to solve. See Algorithms for more details.
Different solvers accept different parameters in the options list. For more information, see odeset and Integrator Options in the MATLAB® Mathematics documentation.

An example of a nonstiff system is the system of equations describing the motion of a rigid body without external forces.
To simulate this system, create a function rigid containing the equations
function dy = rigid(t,y) dy = zeros(3,1); % a column vector dy(1) = y(2) * y(3); dy(2) = -y(1) * y(3); dy(3) = -0.51 * y(1) * y(2);
In this example we change the error tolerances using the odeset command and solve on a time interval [0 12] with an initial condition vector [0 1 1] at time 0.
options = odeset('RelTol',1e-4,'AbsTol',[1e-4 1e-4 1e-5]); [T,Y] = ode45(@rigid,[0 12],[0 1 1],options);
Plotting the columns of the returned array Y versus T shows the solution
An example of a stiff system is provided by the van der Pol equations in relaxation oscillation. The limit cycle has portions where the solution components change slowly and the problem is quite stiff, alternating with regions of very sharp change where it is not stiff.
To simulate this system, create a function vdp1000 containing the equations
function dy = vdp1000(t,y) dy = zeros(2,1); % a column vector dy(1) = y(2); dy(2) = 1000*(1 - y(1)^2)*y(2) - y(1);
For this problem, we will use the default relative and absolute tolerances (1e-3 and 1e-6, respectively) and solve on a time interval of [0 3000] with initial condition vector [2 0] at time 0.
[T,Y] = ode15s(@vdp1000,[0 3000],[2 0]);
Plotting the first column of the returned matrix Y versus T shows the solution
This example solves an ordinary differential equation with time-dependent terms.
Consider the following ODE, with time-dependent parameters defined only through the set of data points given in two vectors:
y'(t) + f(t)y(t) = g(t)
The initial condition is y(1) = 1, where the function f(t) is defined by the n-by-1 vector f evaluated at times ft, and the function g(t) is defined by the m-by-1 vector g evaluated at times gt.
First, define the time-dependent parameters f(t) and g(t) as the following:
ft = linspace(0,5,25); % Generate t for f f = ft.^2 - ft - 3; % Generate f(t) gt = linspace(1,6,25); % Generate t for g g = 3*sin(gt-0.25); % Generate g(t)
Write a function to interpolate the data sets specified above to obtain the value of the time-dependent terms at the specified time:
function dydt = myode(t,y,ft,f,gt,g) f = interp1(ft,f,t); % Interpolate the data set (ft,f) at time t g = interp1(gt,g,t); % Interpolate the data set (gt,g) at time t dydt = -f.*y + g; % Evaluate ODE at time t
Call the derivative function myode.m within the MATLAB ode45 function specifying time as the first input argument :
Tspan = [1 5]; % Solve from t=1 to t=5 IC = 1; % y(t=1) = 1 [T Y] = ode45(@(t,y) myode(t,y,ft,f,gt,g),Tspan,IC); % Solve ODE
Plot the solution y(t) as a function of time:
plot(T, Y); title('Plot of y as a function of time'); xlabel('Time'); ylabel('Y(t)');

Mahogany Verona Side Chairs, Set of 2
These are Great Chairs
Solid wood chairs with a timeless style!
We received the chairs in a timely manner after ordering them as a gift online, and were able to assemble them without difficulty.
They are the perfect look for our kids new home, and we have already enjoyed putting them to use!
We anticipate many more happy gatherings there!

Solid chairs!
We have been looking for a while for chairs for a custom made mahogany table we have. The table is a bit rustic, too. These chairs not only matched perfectly but they exceeded our expectation on how well made they are. They are heavy but my husband loves that about them. At first we were worried that the cross bars at the bottom weren't fitting right. The dowels were showing. But then we realized the last screws weren't placed yet and that tightened everything right up! We ordered 2 first to make sure we liked them and then ordered the second 2. Love them!!
October 20, 2013
These are beautiful.
These chairs are absolutely beautiful. I bought 8 of them to go with a rustic, 8 ft reclaimed barn wood dining table and they are the perfect match. They are very sturdy and easy to assemble. In addition, they arrived less than one week after ordering.
September 21, 2013
Love them so far!
Just bought the chairs; ordered the table and bench I wanted the bench with a back felt it would be more comfortable; so far after putting the chairs together with ease ( super easy directions and great packing)! I cannot wait for the table and bench to arrive; debating on the buffet while it's on sale - I have looked at this set for almost two years and it continues to be my favorite by the look in the store and so far - I couldn't be happier with the chairs - wish I'd get another coupon quick for the buffet!

Beautiful, Sturdy, Well-Constructed Chairs
I can't say enough great things about these chairs. I purchased them to match an expensive dining table that I had purchased and the chairs (although not particularly expensive at all) blend beautifully! They were incredibly easy to put together and really do look nice.

In Love
I ordered 3 sets of these chairs online along with the Verona table. I havent received my table yet (should anyday now) but if its anything like these chairs, I will be in love. The chairs came quickly and were packaged nicely. I put together all 6 chairs by myself (I'm female) and had no problems at all. I followed the directions and they were super easy. The chairs are comfortable and look so rich. I am extremely happy with my purchase and would highly recommend these chairs to anyone!

Beautiful, sturdy chairs.
We purchased these along with the Verona table. Lovely chairs with a farmhouse look, and the fairly slim profile allows you to seat three of these next to each other at the table comfortably (with the leaf extended). I do recommend seat cushions due to the solid wood, the seat can be a bit uncomfortable. Very happy with the entire set!

Desk and table lamps: limited dimensions, unlimited possibilities.
Why We Love Desk and Table Lamps
Regardless of whether your tastes are traditional or tend toward more contemporary table lamps, you'll find what you need right here. The lighting and decorative opportunities presented in our selection of desk lamps and table lamps are infinite. They range from highly decorative providers of ambient light to sleek, functional and adjustable task lighting.

Where Desk & Table Lamps Work Best
Accent table lamps are ideal for providing ambient light and an eye-catching decorative element in living rooms. Meanwhile, on bedside tables or desktops, adjustable desk lights provide focused light ideal for reading, paperwork and other tasks.
