Loren Feldman Demonstrates Artistic Handiwork But is Not Racist
Alot has been said recently of the cyclone that has begun to swirl around Loren Feldman. Loren is, and continues to be, my friend first and foremost. Though I know this will be completely offensive to some in the blogosphere, many of whom I respect and see as colleagues, it has to be said.
Artwork is artwork and Loren is an artist. The best art is offensive to somebody. That's the truth. Take this painting known as Madame X.
According to the story, this piece caused such a stir in 19th century France due to the sexual posturing of the Madame in the photo. The sexuality conveyed with the skin and pink ears was absolutely obscene in French society of 1884. (Source) Today, we would think nothing of this piece of art but in that day, there was a clear message sent about the nature of the society at the time and the truth was offensive.
In the late 80s, the National Endowment for the Arts funded the exhibition of a photograph called Piss Christ which set evangelical Christians on edge. The photograph portrays a crucifix set in a jar of the author's urine. Some saw the piece as blasphemy while others saw it as an observation of what society has done to Jesus.
The point being that artwork can sometimes be damning. Art, like music, is one of those rare things that provides such an avenue into a person's soul that sometimes what is seen within is frightening and, like the French of 1884, they don't confront the issue but shove it back into a dark corner.
Do I believe racism still exists in America? Absolutely. It is one of the worst calamities ever wrought on this nation, and many others. Do I believe Loren Feldman, in his weeklong parody/social experiment, toed the line? Yeah, I do. Did he cross it? Eh… who am I to judge? Is he racist? Heck no.
Many of the people who have defended Loren have done so from the position of first hand experience. I, like many of them, know Loren personally. I've spent days with the guy. I've slept on his sofa when I was stranded in New York. I laughed with him in San Francisco and Toronto at two different events.
Is he controversial? You betcha. Is he racist? Not a chance.
Loren Feldman Debacle Demonstrates Ignorance Lives
By now, many of you have heard about the failed attempt at humor by video blogger Loren Feldman. In the past, I've been pleased to call Loren my friend. He is funny, and very New York – two combos that I like. People like Loren often make me miss NYC, where people are real.
However, Loren took things a bit too far with his videos from a year ago. He stepped over serious racial lines, offending many people. It started with a video where he asks, "Where are all the black tech bloggers?" It ends with a series of other racist videos that resulted in the termination of his contract with PodTech.
Now, I believe that everyone makes mistakes and that mistakes are forgiveable. Hell, I've made mistakes – some of the racial type – that have been forgiven.
But Loren has intentionally gone too far and shows no signs of coming back. Last month, Loren had two deals secured to create and distribute video content. One was with CNet (owned by CBS) and the other with Verizon Wireless who planned to syndicated his content to their V-Cast service.
Both companies canned him after recognizing that this was not the kind of image they wanted their brands to convey.
Corvida, over at SheGeeks, was instrumental in having the Verizon Wireless deal deep-sixed. She states in her post:
The video was degrading. He was degrading an entire community and it should not be supported by Verizon nor its customers. It hit close to home and not necessarily because it was true on some levels, but because it was negative on every level. It was an ignorant video and one that mocked a small percentage of the African-American community. Yet, that particular part of the community is the most profile and we can all guess why. Everyone loves drama.
Corvida is dead right. Apparently, many other people agree with her.
Loren stepped over a serious line. I've attempted, thus far, to stay out of this. Race is a serious issue in this country and though some would like to believe it is a thing of the past, it is not. Anyone who bandys around racial slurs so recklessly deserves never to have business again.

Apple's new iMac expected to be redesigned without Retina displayApple's iMac will reportedly receive a hardware redesign before the end of the year, but the desktop won't receive a high-resolution Retina display.
Two new iMac models in sizes 21.5 and 27 inches were detailed on Friday by analyst Ming-Chi Kuo of KGI Securities as two of the eight new products Apple is reportedly preparing to release this fall. Kuo, who has a reliable track record, believes the new 21.5-inch iMac will debut in September, while a larger 27-inch iMac is expected to debut in late October.
According to Kuo, the new iMac will not feature a Retina display this year, but he expects the new Macs to "still prove attractive to consumers." Interest in the new models, beyond the anticipated Ivy Bridge processors, will come from what Kuo said will be a "brand new design."
Display quality on the new iMacs will reportedly be improved with a new "full-lamination process," attaching the display panel to the protective cover glass.
This new production method apparently comes at a cost, though: According to Kuo, the larger 27-inch iMac has a lower yield rate with the new full-lamination method. That's why he expects the 27-inch iMac to debut 6 to 8 weeks after the 21.5-inch model.
Another big seller in the holiday season, Kuo believes, will be the new 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display. He has predicted that Apple will aggressively price the new MacBook Pro under $1,300, which will help drive strong demand at launch.
Kuo's predictions call for Apple to ship nearly 1.5 million iMac units in the fourth quarter of calendar 2012. With all other Mac models thrown into the mix, he believes Apple will ship a total of 5.5 million units in the holiday shopping quarter.
If Apple can achieve that number, it would likely ensure a new sales record for the company. Apple's previous best quarter for Macs came in the holiday season of 2011, when the company sold 5.2 million Macs in a three-month span.

How is WiFi handled on Symbian? Is there a separate WiFi connection (IAP) for each SSID you want to connect to?

How is WiFi handled? Is there a separate WiFi connection (IAP) for each SSID you want to connect to?
How is wireless fidelity (WiFi) handled? Is there a separate WiFi connection (Internet Access Point, IAP) for each SSID you want to connect to? Do they only appear as options when you are in range of that SSID? Is there automatic switching of any kind when you enter and exit various WiFi hot spots?
I would like to know various scenarios of WiFi connections coming and going while applications are currently connected to the Internet as well as just starting an Internet connection.
WiFi in the system is just another bearer. WiFi, as any other bearer, is configured in Internet Access Point UI. Usually, Connection Notifier Dialog (also known as IAP Selection Dialog) filters WLAN IAPs that are not on the range, based on SSID. However, in some cases a network does not broadcast its name or the network supports more than one network. In these cases the filtering should be turned off.
WLAN IAP works basically like any other Symbian Internet connection. More information about Symbian networking can be found in the SDK documentation.
There is a separate IAP for each Wi-Fi and SSID connection.

Do you have watery periods?
Two years ago I had a period from hell. Tampons and pads together couldn't contain it. I'd wake up in the morning and my bed would be soaked--it looked like a murder took place. I had an ultrasound and it indicated that I had polyps. After a D&C all was fine for a while. A year later the same thing happened so there was another ultrasound followed by 90 days of progestin. Since then I wear a pad continuously since I never know what to expect. One day I'll have a heavy flow and the next day nothing. The flow itself is always watery and sometimes only slightly pink. I mention this to my ob/gyn and he just says that things change in menopause. Has anyone had periods of mostly water? I've tried to find out about this on the web but haven't had success. Help! (I'm 51)
Boy does this sound very familiar. I had years of of "gushers" (ultra sound, no polyps no meds) and now it seems I have my periods more often, but the last two have been a drop or two of red than on to pink and very watery. I just figured it's pretty much coming to an end. Which is just fine with me. It is a bit unnerving not really knowing what to expect or when to expect it.
I'm with you on the daily pad. I've been wearing one for years. Infact my last period (if you can call it that) that was all I needed.
I too have talked to my doctor, but she said it was pretty much different with each individual. My Mom has been gone for more then ten years, so I can't find out from her what she went through. Although I'm sure she would have been mortified to talk about it. Not unlike most of her generation. God Bless her. I do have a sister that's 8 years older then I am. I really need to give her a call. She's the one that told me about menstration. Our Mom never told her. Scared the heck out of her when she started.
I know this isn't much, but if you are like me it's nice to know I'm not the only one with watery barely pinkish "periods".

Budget lights for Plumeria cuttings in PNW
After finding my way over here from the Plumeria forum and doing some research, it seems like a compact fluorescent light setup might be the most practical for my small apartment/dorm, and my budget - I'll have 5 plumie cuttings that I'm going to be starting rooting this weekend, and I'm on a college budget, so I'm looking for the most economical, yet effective solution I can find. I wonder if one such lamp (a CFL with reflector fixture, or small shoplight with 2 bulbs) might be sufficient for all 5 if I group their pots together and place the lamp close to the tops? I do also have one of those clamp-on work spotlights that can take a small grow light bulb as well to supplement - I can try them in my window, but it doesn't seem like I get strong enough light, or strong light for enough of the day, for them to do well there (all windows are facing East).
I was also wondering if I need to really be so concerned about light before they've even rooted yet, or if they might do just fine with a heating mat and whatever light coming in from my window until I can afford some nicer lighting setup after a bit?
Thanks in advance for any advice! :)

Afternoon all!
So am (still) kicking around building a brutus, and am (still) amassing a cost for this to present to SWMBO for final budget approval. Nearly there, tho.
When it comes to controlling ye olde solenoid valves though, I've got a bit of a question. I know the Love TS-13010 are the controllers of choice for the Brutus, $65 a pop from Dwyer, plus shipping. Fair enough.
My evil cohort has suggested that a PID like this one would be able to do the same thing, as well as displaying the target AND current liquid temps (which I'd find handy!), for almost half the price?
I've found tons of threads of folks using these for e-keggles, but nobody (as yet) for a Brutus. I'm assuming (as usual) that the draw from a solenoid valve like the STCs or ASCOs wouldn't require the use of a SSR either?
I think you want simple on/off control for the solenoids. If you feel the Love controller is too expensive, Auberins sells a PID with an on/off control mode for $42.
Well, the cost savings are nice (although kinda negligible when you figure in the cost of thermocouples as well), but I was really digging the fact that the PID displayed current AND target temp right there.
subscribed. i'm right there with you, shopping for control panel parts. i saw the same one on ebay just a few hours ago. I'll be curious as to what everyone else says, but I'm thinking it will work. Look at Lonnie Mac's Brutus Clone's on his website and you'll see all sorts of temperature controllers.
As long as it has the proper Output voltage type and rating, and can handle the current draw of the valve, it will work. That's what you need to look at compared to your valves.
I'm not going to try to talk you out of the Love controller, The Auber isn't any more complicated and they are pretty tried and true as well. Not to mention more bang for your buck.
Usually the programmable timers are insanely expensive (%150+). Just found this one at auber, which is a stinking steal. ASL-51

A method and apparatus measured and calculates the derived thermodynamic state of a heat-pump or air conditioning system using information from transducers sensing elementary thermodynamic variables in the system. Elementary signals such as pressure, temperature, power, humidity, air flow, and others as required are derived using transducers from closed and open portions of the thermodynamic system, and which signals are then transmitted using appropriate transmission media. These signals are input to a computer, which could take many forms (electrical analog, electrical digital, pneumatic, hydraulic, and others), and these signal inputs along with known and tabulated thermodynamic characteristics of the working fluid (refrigerant) and psychrometric properties of the cooled media (air for example), are used to calculate thermodynamic output variables such as entropy, enthalpy, pressure, temperature, and volume at various states in the thermodynamic cycle. The output variables can be presented in tabulated or graphic form for clear understanding such as pressure vs. volume, temperature vs. entropy, or pressure vs. enthalpy graphs of the working system. The derived data can be used to determine efficiency and operating condition of the heat-pump or air-conditioning system and can be used as an aid in the diagnosis of the cause of a malfunctioning or inefficient system. Using artificial intelligence in an "expert" system, diagnosis could be completely automated.
1. In the operation of a heat engine having an evaporator and a condenser, a method of diagnosing and evaluating actual thermodynamic performance of the heat engine comprising:

Heat pumps and air conditioners are thermodynamic systems generically referred to as heat engines. These heat engines oppose the normal flow of heat from a warm to a cold body by an input of energy (work). They can provide considerably higher energy efficiency for comfort heating in residential and commercial structures than primary energy heating. However, the second law of thermodynamics provides that no heat engine can be 100% efficient, and this is reflected by losses in the system. These losses, among others, consist of mechanical friction losses, and losses due to the non-ideal nature of the working fluid (refrigerant). These losses can be minimized, and therefore efficiency improved (a measure of efficiency called Coefficient Of Performance (COP) is used in the Heating Ventilating and Air Conditioning (HVAC) industry) by operating the non-ideal refrigerant at optimum conditions.
The presence of contaminants, such as air or moisture, can cause the COP to be severely degraded. Too little or too much refrigerant in the system can also cause the COP to be degraded. A lack of adequate insulation around the vapor line can cause the COP to be degraded, particularly in the heat pump winter heating cycle. Malfunctions in the system, such as a stuck expansion valve or partially blocked capillary expansion tube, can cause the COP to be adversely affected. It is the estimate of an industry expert that 50% of all HVAC systems installed are operating considerably below optimum.
It is the service technician's job to determine what problem may be causing a malfunction or performance degradation. Further, because heat pumps used in forced warm-air heating systems may not provide air which is warm to the human touch, it is frequently the technician's goal to reassure the disgruntled first time heat pump owner that all is well (if it truly is).
However, it is industry experience that large personnel turnover, lack of adequate diagnostic tools and/or difficulty in using available tools, and lack of training in thermodynamic principles many times precludes accurate diagnosis. This results in inefficient operation of HVAC systems in industrial, commercial, and residential applications.
The traditional service tools for the HVAC technician is a set of pressure gages used to measure high and low side system pressure, and temperature gages to measure indoor inlet, indoor outlet, and outdoor temperatures. In addition, a well-equipped technician will have a (sling) hygrometer for measuring relative humidity. Readings obtained from these instruments, coupled with psychrometric tables and manufacturers' performance curves can provide a reasonably accurate system status.
It is rare, however, that all the instruments are available, and that the technician is sufficiently skilled to interpret the readings correctly. Most often, conclusions are drawn from pressure gage readings alone. But pressure gage readings alone can be very misleading. For instance, pressure gage readings can be reasonably normal, accounting for other variables such as humidity, indoor and outdoor temperatures, vapor line insulation, and air flow, and yet the system may be performing well below optimum because of air or moisture contamination (very common) of the refrigerant.
A plurality of thermodynamic system variables are transduced into electrical signals at a plurality of physical locations. At each location the analog signals are Time Domain Multiplexed (TDM) and changed to digital form in the analog to digital converter. The order can be reversed, digital conversion and then multiplexing could be used, still remaining within the scope of the present invention. The resulting digital signals are then multiplexed onto a communications channel (although time division multiplexing is contemplated, other multiplexing means could be employed consistent with the communications media, and within the scope of the present invention). A demultiplexer receives information via the communications channel, and this information is sent to the computer using conventional means. The computer will use this information to calculate output variables (COP), display information using graphic displays (real time pressure/enthalpy curves), provide expert diagnosis (air or water in the system, state of charge), and store detailed performance data in mass media (disk storage systems) for comparison with earlier or later performance data.
To allow faster and easier interaction with the HVAC system, the diagnostic system will be capable of remotely controlling the HVAC system to initiate different cycles, such as air conditioning or heat pump or compressor defrost. This is accomplished using a communications channel and multiplexing means from the computer to the plurality of physical locations. Also, this communication means can be employed to control action of service tools, such as a vacuum pump, and valves to control the addition or discharge of refrigerant from the system.
Accordingly, it is a primary object of the present invention to reduce the cost associated with the repair, replacement, maintenance, and operation of a HVAC system.
The foregoing object is achieved by improving the speed and accuracy obtainable in diagnosing inefficiencies and malfunctions in the HVAC system so that repairs and/or replacement of defective components can be effected in the most efficient way.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide an expert diagnostic system which processes data obtained from the HVAC system and provides diagnostic information to the technician or repairman and means for recording the state of the system.
It is yet another object of the present invention to provide diagnostic information to allow optimization of controllable thermodynamic system variables.
Other objects and advantages of the present invention will become apparent and obvious from a study of the following description and the accompanying drawings which are merely illustrative of such invention.
FIG. 1 is a block diagram of the diagnostic system of the present invention;
FIG. 2 is a block diagram of a second embodiment thereof,
FIG. 3 is a graph illustrative of the type of output obtained therefrom.
FIG. 4 is a flow diagram of the operation of the diagnostic apparatus.
Referring to FIG. 1, system variables are measured and transduced into electrical signals at separate physical locations: the evaporator 1, the condenser 2, and the indoor controlled environment 3. This could be accomplished either by temporarily installing sensors into the HVAC system, or in the case of large industrial systems, by tapping into existing transducer signals. While most variables are readily available, some may not be, such as pressure signals 19, at the evaporator 1. The computer 18 can act as an expert or intelligent system, recognize the lack of complete data, and diagnose the HVAC machine function based on the best available information. However, the computer 18 could also act in a traditional role (nonexpert and/or non-intelligent) for providing means for digesting information, computing output variables, and displaying information in graphic or tabulated format and remain within the scope of the present invention.
FIG. 1 shows three physically separate information channels 1, 2, and 3 corresponding to the three separate physical locations. In many applications, such as split-system heat pump/air conditioning, this is the case. In other applications, such as automotive air conditioning, only a small physical separation exists between the sources of information from the physical variables, the control actuators, and the computing system. Without prejudice, the means for communication, whether it be by wire, optical, or other means, in baseband or modulated communications, and using a single or plurality of information channels, is within the scope of this invention. Thus, the information derived at 1, 2 and 3 could be transduced and conditioned in a single element or plurality of elements (as shown in FIG. 1), communicated to the computer using a single communications channel (as shown in FIG. 1) or plurality of communications channels and remain within the scope of the present invention.
In the preferred embodiment of FIG. 1, the physical variables, such as pressure, temperature, voltage, current, humidity and air flow, are converted into electrical signals suitable for conditioning and multiplexing at each of the three locations as described below.
Evaporator Localized Data and Control. The evaporator localized data and control section of the diagnostic system, shown as numeral 1, contains a means for gathering data at the evaporator which is used to evaluate system performance. The evaporator localized data and control equipment is located at or near the site of the evaporator of the heat pump.
Pressure transducer 19 measures the refrigerant fluid pressure entering the evaporator ("HIGHSIDE") and exiting the evaporator ("LOWSIDE"). The pressure transducer used can be of the semiconductor strain gauge type since these are well adapted to most refrigerants, have the required sensitivity and accuracy, and can be compensated for wide temperature variations. Shrader valves and other test valves, permanently installed in HVAC systems, provide means for temporarily connecting the pressure transducers. At least two of these access valves are commonly installed in the liquid and vapor lines, but more may be installed in a larger system.
Temperature transducers 20 are located at the inlet and outlet of the evaporator to sense the refrigerant temperature at these points. The temperature transducers including thermistors, semiconductor transducers (band gap reference types), thermocouples, Resistance Temperature Transducers (RTD), and other types can be applied using insulated cuffs which isolate the transducer from external thermal conditions. The cuffs can be attached around piping at points where it is desirable to measure the temperature of the refrigerant by using temporary fasteners (one means might be VELCRO hook and loop fasteners) to secure the cuffs. Because the piping is almost always copper or possibly aluminum with excellent thermal conductivity, the temperature of the surface of the piping very closely approximates that of the refrigerant if adequate means are provided to insulate the pipe and transducer from the external environment.
Voltage and current transducers 21 located at the evaporator fan are used to obtain input power to the evaporator fan. The current transducers are of the clamp-on type which measures the magnetic field surrounding the conductor. The AC voltage is measured using a step-down transformer to isolate and protect the technician.
The electrical signals produced by transducers 19, 20, and 21 are transmitted to the signal conditioning and analog multiplex section 30. The signal conditioning section 30 changes the raw electrical signals from the transducers into electrical analogs appropriate for input into the analog multiplexer. As an example of signal conditioning, the AC current signal may be conditioned to be represented by a DC signal proportional to the RMS value of the AC current. The AC voltage signal may be conditioned in a like manner. An additional DC signal representing power factor or phase angle between voltage and current may be included to preserve useful information about reactive and useful power. After conditioning, the electrical analog signals are then analog mutiplexed by multiplexer 30 to multiplex the signals such that a single analog to digital converter can be used at that location. This is not an essential part of the invention, but is dictated by functional consideration. That is, multiple analog to digital converters could be used with the multiplexing being performed on the resulting digital signals.
After conversion to digital signals, Time Domain Multiplexer 38 transmits the conditioned and multiplexed information by one or more communications channels 16 as will be hereinafter described.
Condenser Localized Data. The condenser localized data and control section of the diagnostic system, indicated generally at 2, obtains means for obtaining data at the condenser to evaluate system performance. The condenser localized data and control equipment is located at or near the condenser and is similar in many respects to the evaporator data and control equipment.
Pressure transducers 23 and temperature transducers 24 measure the refrigerant pressures and temperatures, respectfully, entering the condenser ("HIGHSIDE") and exiting the condenser ("LOWSIDE"). As with the evaporator localized data and control equipment, the pressure transducers 23 used may be of the semiconductor strain gauge type and are coupled to Shrader valves in the HVAC system. The temperature transducers 24, which may be thermistors, band gap reference type semiconductor transducers, thermocouples, or RTD'S are attached to the piping by insulated cuffs as already described. Voltage and current transducers 25 are used to obtain the input power to the compresser fan motor and compressor motor.
The raw electrical signals produced by transducers 23, 24, and 25 are transmitted to the signal conditioner and analog multiplexer 32. Signal conditioner 32 changes the raw electrical signal produced by the transducers into an analog signal suitable for multiplexing. The conditioned signals are then analog multiplexed at 32 and transmitted to the analog to digital converter 36. After being digitized, the electrical signals are transmitted to Time Domain Multiplex 40 which then transmits them to at least one communication channel 16.
Indoor Localized Psychometric Data and Control. The indoor localized psychometric data segment of the diagnostic system is indicated generally at 3. This section senses ambient conditions at the air duct inlets and outlets which communicate air to and from the interior space. Indoor localized psychometric data unit 3 contains means for sensing the humidity, temperature, and air flow into and out of these air ducts.
Humidity transducers 27 sense the humidity of the air entering the indoor space (indoor inlet air) and the air leaving the indoor space (indoor outlet air). Humidity transducers 27 can be of the semiconducting type wherein complex impedance and conductivity varies as a function of relative humidity, or of the hygroscopic polymer capacitive type wherein electrical capacitance varies as a function of humidity. Temperature transducers 28 sense the temperature of the indoor inlet air and indoor outlet air, and further changes the sensed information into raw electrical signals. A variety of temperature sensors can be used, including thermocouples, thermistors, or semiconductor types.
Air flow transducers 29 also measure the air flow at the air inlet and air outlet. Most commercially available transducers come within the accuracy requirements for HVAC diagnostic systems.
Transducers 27, 28, and 29 convert the sensed electrometric data into raw electrical signals which are then transmitted to signal conditioner and analog multiplexer indicated at 9. This step conditions the raw signals into electrical analog signals, which are analog multiplexed and then sent to the analog to digital converter 12. Next, the digitized signals are Time Domain Multiplexed at 15 before they are sent from the indoor localized psychometric data and control segment via communication channels 16.
The final step in each localized data segment 1, 2, and 3 of the diagnostic system is the Time Domain Multiplexing of the electrical signal produced. Other multiplexing means, however, could also be used, such as Frequency Domain Multiplexing. Regardless of the form used, the multiplexed electrical signals produced by each localized data and control segment are transmitted over one or more communication channels 16 to the computer 18. In the preferred embodiment, a radio means is used as communication channel 16. Baseband or narrowband modulation may be used as appropriate for the transmission media, and the signals are transmitted using Binary Phase Shift Key (BPSK) modulation of a subcarrier, which signal is used to modulate a radio frequency carrier for wireless transmission.
The information transmitted by communication channel 16 is received and demultiplexed by Time Domain Demultiplexer 43. Time Domain Demultiplexer 43 then transmits the resulting digital electrical signal to computer 18.
Computer 18 receives and analyzes the data produced by each localized data and control segment 1, 2, and 3 to generate diagnostic information for an operator or service technician. Computer 18 provides useful computed numeric information, such as the coefficient of performance, input power, and output cooling or heating rate of the heat engine being tested.
This information, along with the sensed physical variable values, is then displayed to an operator. Furthermore, the computer may also generate a graphic output depicting the thermodynamic performance of the heat engine system, one example being the pressure-enthalpy diagram shown in FIG. 3. Given input variables such as inlet air temperature and humidity, outdoor air temperature and humidity, and previous performance or manufacturers data, the theoretical PH cycle beginning with A through H and back to A can be predicted. As an example of diagnostic capability, an overlay of the actual operating cycle can provide immediate graphic analysis comparing present operating cycles relative to past performance or data supplied by the manufacturer. The following explanation is given for a conditioned space cooling cycle; a similar explanation could be given for a conditioned space heating cycle. For reference, point 0 represents input enthalpy (H) and pressure (P) at the input to the compressor. Point B is P and H at the output of the compressor representing a constant entropy compression. The pressure loss from points B to C is loss in the compressor valves. The line from point C to D represents pressure loss and release of latent heat from the thermodynamic fluid in the condenser. The pressure loss and release of latent heat represented by the curve from point D to E represents fluid transport in the liquid line. Through the expansion valve or capillary tube the working fluid undergoes a pressure loss from points E to F. From points F to G, the thermodynamic fluid undergoes a pressure loss and absorbs heat in the evaporator. Additional heat (superheat) is absorbed from the conditioned space, and an additional pressure loss is observed in the transition from point G to point H in the vapor line within the conditioned space. From point H to point A, additional heat (further superheat) is absorbed in the vapor line outside the conditioned space. As an example of diagnostic output, the ratio of specific enthalpy input from points A to B to the refrigerating effect represented by the specific enthalpy difference from points E to H is the Coefficient Of Performance (COP). Other output variables can be derived from points on the PH diagram along with other input variables such as input power to the compressor.
Communication channels 16 are also capable of transmitting information from computer 18 to the evaporator or localized data and control section 1 and condenser localized data and control section 2. Digital signals produced by computer 18 are Time Domain Multiplexed at 42 before being sent onto communication channels 16.
Time Domain Demultiplexer 39 receives the information sent over communication channel 16 by computer 18. Time Domain Demultiplexer 39 is located at the site of the evaporator within evaporator localized data and control section 1. After demultiplexing at 39, the received signal passes to the digital to control converter 35 where it is changed into a control signal. Control demultiplexer 7 then alters the signal into a form suitable for control actuator 22, which can change the systems cycle (i.e. cooling, heating, fan only).
Time Domain Demultiplexer 41, part of the condenser localized data and control segment 2, receives the information sent to it by computer 18 via communication channels 16. Digital to control converter 37 returns the signal to an analog form which is then sent to control demultiplexer 33. The electrical analog signal thus produced is received by control actuators 26 which can directly operate service tools (vacuum pump and refrigerant valve) and cause cycle changes such as operation of the defrost system.
The foregoing communication paths leading back from the computer to control actuators at the heat pump provides a means by which the operator or expert computer system can directly vary system performance. This function aids in diagnosis and can also be used to automatically improve system operating performance. In the diagnosis function, an operator or expert computer system can provide a stimulus to vary the operating conditions so that the resulting output variables at the physical locations may be measured to indicate changes in performance. This capacity of the diagnostic system greatly improves the speed and accuracy with which it analyzes HVAC system performance.
Computer 18 can also perform an expert diagnostic function. By storing past performance and earlier test and manufacture performance data as a data base, computer 18 can provide expert performance evaluation of the HVAC system, recommend service procedures, and recommend means for improving the performance. An expert system could isolate problems by means of a trouble-shooting tree, following the same logic that a human diagnostician might use. A relatively simple example might involve abnormally high pressure in the liquid line. In this case, possible problems range from inadequate air flow around the condenser, to obstructed capillary tubes at the evaporator, to high outdoor air temperatures (in the case of indoor cooling), to refrigerant contamination by non-condensable fluid (air). In the above example, high outdoor air temperatures will be recognized by the inlet air temperature transducer at the outdoor unit. An obstructed capillary tube will be diagnosed by observing simultaneous high liquid line pressure and low vapor line pressure. If these conditions are not observed, the expert system might ask that exhaust air temperature at the condensor be measured (using the same transducer as would be used for inlet air measurement), and if a large difference in inlet to exhaust temperature were observed, thereby concluding that there was inadequate air flow at the condensor. Finally, if none of the above conditions were met, the HVAC diagnostic system might conclude that a non-condensable fluid was contaminating the refrigerant.
A Simplified Diagnostic System. In FIG. 2 is shown a simplified version of the diagnostic system of FIG. 1. This embodiment of the present invention is intended to be highly portable. The embodiment shown here is intended for use where the extensive diagnostic capabilities of the embodiment of FIG. 1 are not required. Transducers 44, 45, and 46 convert physical variables to electrical analogs. An analog multiplexer 47 provides a TDM signal to the analog to digital converter 48. As with the embodiment of FIG. 1, this is not an essential part of the present invention, and a multiple of digital to analog converters could first be employed with digital multiplexing then providing the multiplex means, remaining within the scope of the present invention. A manual entry keypad 50 allows other variables to be entered such as indoor air temperature and humidity. The keypad also allows operator interaction to request output of diagnostic variables.
Given information on all system variables shown in FIG. 1, the present invention can provide extremely accurate system performance diagnosis, and indicate means for performance improvement. An essential part of the present invention is to utilize computer capabilities to diagnose malfunctions and suggest performance improvements. In addition, artificial intelligence and expert system capabilities can be used in diagnosing system malfunctions and projecting possible performance improvements even given incomplete information. Finally, the embodiment of the invention shown in FIG. 2 represents a minimum system which can be hand-held or portable, but can still provide the diagnostic and expert system capabilities of the system of FIG. 1, but with more data entered manually using a keypad or other input device.
The present invention may, of course, be carried out in other specific ways than those herein set forth without departing from the spirit and essential characteristics of the invention. The present embodiments are, therefore, to be considered in all respects as illustrative and not restrictive, and all changes coming within the meaning and equivalency range of the appended Claims are intended to be embraced therein.

Scammers target elderly, rake in cash
In one instance, a Rite Aid manager recognized the 92-year-old as the same man who had transferred cash earlier and, suspecting it was a scam, convinced him to cancel the second transaction and call police.
That same day, an 87-year-old Maple Street man filed a similar complaint. A caller told him his grandson needed money to repair a vehicle following an accident. The man went to Hannaford's on Hanover Street and wired money to a location in Mexico City. He wired more money a second time after the scammer called back explaining more money was needed.
Anyone with information about the incidents is asked to call police at 668-8711. Anonymous tips for cash rewards may be made through Manchester Crimeline at 624-4040 or online at manchestercrimeline.org.

Story of O
We once heard that if a girl wears a ring like O's, dominants anywhere in the world would recognize her to be willing to be tormented in the manner "O" was in this elegant S&M fantasy. We deliberately wrote "tormented," although the proper term of course is "dominated," as the heroine is whipped, branded, pierced, and abused, albeit voluntarily. Published in uptight 1954, the book was banned in some places yet received literary awards and sits today on a list of national triumphs in France. Many assumed for a long time that it was written by a man, for no woman would dream up such scenes of debasement and depravity. In fact, it was created by a Frenchwoman who wrote under a pseudonym and who didn't fess up to her authorship until 40 years later!

Remembering JFK
At this time of day fifty years ago, we were all in total shock and disbelief.. I'll watch the Tom Brokaw show tonight on NBC. Almost everyone knows where they were. I have friends emailing me and telling me their stories. It's funny how this event stamped a perfect picture of that day, the look on my baby's face, the weather outside, the kids walking home from school looking shell shocked. The saddest national day ever followed by three more days. .
It was truly awful. But I have little desire to relive that collective national trauma unfolding again in archival footage. I watched in it real time.
I would hope, though, that those too young to have experienced what we did will watch and come away with more of an historical perspective than simply Kennedy "was a President who was killed".
I was a suckling babe at the time. Oddly, I don't recall that either Kennedy was a major social concern where I was growing up, don't recall my parents or other adults talking about it. The war, OTOH, was massively momentous, I remember my mother showing me the pictures of the soldiers who participated in the massacre and telling me what monsters they were.
duluth, IMO itâÂÂs important to recall these events if only to preserve the sense of history they invoke in younger viewers. ItâÂÂs no different to me than in watching documentaries about the Civil War or old footage from WWII. I saw the film The Butler and many historical issues were telescoped into the film in a way that, if not entirely historically accurate in relation to the butler himself, were historically accurate as to the period the movie encompassed.
I think that many Americans do not have a strong sense of the countryâÂÂs history in anything like concrete terms. Teh more of this kind of stuff that folks watch and think about the better, at least to me.
I don't believe I questioned the importance of presenting these films/programs and any accompanying commentary or downplayed the historical significance. My post was a bit of the personal - that bit of self I seldom, if ever, put forth on a public forum.
I spent those days with the ever present lump in the back of my throat and impossible to stifle sobbing and in wonder of how this horrible event could happen. Fifty years is almost too close.
I sobbed again last night when one of the MSNBC programs played a bit of Lady Bird Johnson's audio diary on meeting Jackie in a Parkland Hospital hallway ..
"Suddenly I found myself face to face with Jackie in a small hallway⦠You always think of someone like her as being insulated, protected. She was quite alone. I don't think I ever saw someone so much alone in my life," Lady Bird would write in her diary. "I went up to her, put my arms around her, and said something to her. I'm sure it was something like 'God, help us all,' because my feelings for her were too tumultuous to put into words."
When President Kennedy was killed, Mary McGrory said to Pat Moynihan, âÂÂWeâÂÂll never laugh again.âÂÂ
And Moynihan, who later became a U.S. senator, replied, âÂÂMary, weâÂÂll laugh again, but weâÂÂll never be young again.âÂÂ
Pretty much sums it up, I think.
I thought I could get thru the Brokaw show on JFK tonight without crying, but as usual it didn't happen. MY generation was there...mostly famous contemporaries who spoke eloquently about where they were ,and to a person none of us forget every nuance on that terrible day.
I lost it again at the playing of the Navy hymn and the shot of a sweet young Bill Clinton shaking the president's hand when he was 16. Looking at that shot of two of my favorite politicians of all times, I felt really proud to be a democrat. The only moment of this show that was ugly was showing Pat Buchanan who tried to denigrate JFK by speculating what he would have done if he lived.
He will always be that handsome charismatic forever young man. My generation's great hope, and as Chris Matthews said we all participated in electing him and then just like that he was taken from us. To watch the old black and white footage of the kids, Black Jack, the caisson...as Doris Kearns Goodwin said...when we all were young and had so much hope for this country. .
I watched Errol Morris' film on the NYTimes yesterday. He really didn't seem to be saying much except 'nothing to to see here, ...' It could have easily been edited down to 5 minutes, tops.
There was a fantastic opinion in the Times yesterday, "In KennedyâÂÂs Death, a Turning Point for a Nation Already Torn", by Sam Tanenhaus. "A Divided, Dangerous Camelot: The anniversary reverie surrounding President John F. KennedyâÂÂs death has obscured the anarchic disorder that was present in America."
It is the most sobering look at the times, past and present I've read in a long time. I was in kindergarten when Kennedy was assassinated and remember the announcement, but I really didn't know who or what a president was. Since I haven't had a tv for 10 years, I wasn't exposed to any of the media you guys are discussing.
Here is a link that might be useful: nytimes
Pat, from my understanding (not very good) of the alternative theories of the assassination, there are questions about whether Zapruder film was edited. Showing a clip of a fixed film as proof isn't a very interesting, or convincing argument. I don't know anything at all about the photo.
In the end, I'm very glad the assassins didn't even nick Jackie. They must have been very, very good shots.
I thought it was clear that he wasn't claiming to know what did or didn't happen. I think it's a valid point that there are too many validating views, second by second, for any of them to have been altered, much less all of them, as he also points out.
"The widow of the police officer shot dead by Lee Harvey Oswald after he assassinated President John F. Kennedy has shared the touching letter Jackie Kennedy wrote to her - and revealed how it made her feel that she was not alone.
Marie Tippit, who is now 85, received the handwritten note just days after her husband J.D. Tippit was killed as he confronted the fleeing gunman, leaving Mrs Tippit with three children to raise alone.
'What can I say to you - my husband's death is responsible for you losing your husband,' Jackie Kennedy wrote to the grieving widow. 'Wasn't one life enough to take on that day?
'I lit a flame for Jack at Arlington [Cemetery] that will burn forever. I consider that it burns for your husband too and so will everyone who ever sees it.
'With my inexpressible sympathy, Jacqueline Kennedy.'
Here is a link that might be useful: link
pnbrown, "We" includes the (island) countries of the English speaking Caribbean, Guyana in South America and Belize (which barely qualifies) in Central America. That is another way of saying "ex British colonies" - not unlike the USA!
It used to be said that what hits the USA on Monday reaches Jamaica on Wednesday and Trinidad on Friday.
And we were unwittingly incorrectly political by referring to all Americans as "Yankees" as in working for the Yankee dollar.
Pat, didn't he only present 2 pieces of "evidence" then make the statement about all of the evidence being altered? Has there ever been a claim that all of the evidence was altered?
I listened to an interview with Jim Fetzer, long time Kennedy assassination historian. He is from Duluth so often gets air time from local stations because he is local. I looked at his website too and found an article about the NYTimes always taking the position that the the Warren Report is accurate and going to lengths to defend it. I'm not surprised that 50 years later they are still maintaining their original position, which is what I thought was Morris' primary objective.
Not sure of the source of David's link. I don't click on unidentified links anymore. What's incredible about the quote is the assumption that Oswald is guilty of 2 murders. I don't know much about the assassination, but I do know that Oswald was murdered a few days after the assassination of Kennedy, and never stood trial, let alone be convicted of anything. But there it is, stated as fact.
Ohiomom, I haven't seen any pictures of Jackie's suit and hope I never do. The footage of her leaping to the trunk of the car to retrieve a piece of her husbands head is enough. Jackie was a class act. She sure was.
It's natural to think that an event is more significant than history proves it to be because of an association with it.
I think we all do that from time to time.
But life has moved on, JFK was assassinated and I don't think we will ever know the truth.
Jackie was indeed a class act. She was smart enough to realize her assets of youth, beauty, charm, breeding and intelligence to JFK's presidency (as was he and Joe Kennedy) and career as well as the opportunity for history to remember her differently than previous first ladies and I believe every word she uttered, every outfit she wore, every mannerism, reflected that. I admire her for how she reared her children to look outside themselves and how she insulated them while giving them as normal a life as they each could have.
There is another book about that says LBJ was about to be dumped from the ticket and says he is responsible for the assassination.
There will always be someone to speculate about who what where and make money, and still no definitive answers.
John F. Kennedy would never have made it in today's society with the media, he would have suffered disgrace for his many infidelities and relegated to sailing and other ventures.
The shoulda woulad couldas about his presidency will always be that. It was a nice time that I remember when things were calm, before people were so mad all the time and sniping.
A time when even if you didn't have class in your personal life you acted like you did in public.
I say let Kennedy rest in peace.
Seems like we watched two different films. He clearly stated that the notion that all the video and photo evidence was altered is absurd, and therefore none of it has been altered.
The point of the piece was, IMO, that the answer to the mystery is contained in that visual record, but we may never be able to tease it out.
I was 6 at the time. The most lasting image i have is the Bill Mauldin cartoon, of Lincoln weeping, that my mother had on the wall for literally decades afterwards.
My dad really didn't like the whole Kennedy clan, reviled the elder Joe as a scheming sob and always called Bobby a snake. He wanted to like Jack but couldn't get past his family's skeletons.
I lived through another assassination here in Israel. Our Prime minister was shot, and it affected the country here the same way - loss of innocence, what could have been, look who we have become. But those years, I know, it was first Jack, then King, then Bobby............as I sat with mom a few years later and we heard on the radio the very tail end of a report about Wallace, we'd missed the details. The first thing out of my young mouth was "I bet he was shot", and my mother was more upset by my easily spouted assumption - that assassination was a common idea- than by the shooting itself.
The House Select Committee on Assassinations concluded in its 1979 report that evidence supported two shooters in the killing of the president.
Therefore, there is confirmation, based on evidence, that Oswald did not act alone.
The conclusion that neither the CIA nor FBI were involved is less believable -- classic modified limited hangout.
About 40 + years ago I bought a book about Kennedy's assassination that was 'smuggled' in from Canada. I remember I bought it from a lawyer from Chicago - Sherman Skolnik.
The book was called "Farewell America" and had un-modified photos from the Zapruder film. Many many years later I learned that the author was a fake - and that it was at least in part a project of the French Intelligence service.
The book made a case for several 'shooters' and remained somewhat of an enigma to me. Then of all things it was re-published about 10 years ago in paperback -and is sold on Amazon- it is still interesting and I found the text free on line as well-

My level has been reset to level 1 prestige what can i do?
My account has been resetted to level 1 prestige 1 i don't know if if the level reset thing in prestige awards resets you to level 1 prestige 1 but im pretty sure that wasn't it because i already used the prestige award to unlock the ksg for life Basically my question is what can i do i don't even know if i should call activision or xbox.
Sadly my friend it looks like nothing can be done about it. Chances are someone reported you via in the in-game report function and the powers that be decided you did something wrong and reset you. Have you checked your e-mail for elite or anything like that? This is strictly a what if case though, have you done anything that could be considered boosting or anything that could seem like you are having an advantage such as lag issues? The CoD community is so try-hard at times that when anything doesn't go their way it's always you are cheating or boosting as even some on this forum have claimed with diamond camo.
Here's the only options as to why:
1. You're a booster who got caught.
2. You accidentally joined a modded game and got reset because of Treyarch not fixing shit.
3. You got the unfortunate side effect of some glitch.
As you can probably tell by number 2, that happened to me in the first Black Ops. Was prestige 3, level 49 and only 20,000 XP needed to prestige. I joined a match in progress that just started, got the first kill, got 50,000 XP and quit the game immediately. Still got fucked over and reset and then I metaphorically shit all over Black Ops 1.
At least check to see if you still have your titles, emblems, and leader board stats as I'm pretty sure if you use the reset token it wipes all of that.
Did you play a local game at all .. This has happened to me to I was kicked offline so I played the new maps against some bots and when live kicked back in I was reset
If you didn't use a cheat or hack, and didn't join a modded lobby, call Treyarch customer support and talk to them. Fuck just sitting there doing nothing.
Did you play local multiplayer? If you did that would be the cause. It's a bug thats been there since the game came out. You should make a post over at the CoD forums in the support section about it.
or u may have accidentally pressed the reset in the prestige awards, in that case but nothing can be done. like others say, phone treyarch
did you cheat or anything?
I didn't cheat once at all this game I played like everybody else.
MW2 that's a different story.
I report ppl that join the game late and end up on the other team as their buddies and they mess around for the last minute or so of a round in search. I also report ppl that organize the lobby for quick scopes only and will sit there for 40-50 seconds in front of eachother trying nothing but gay quickscopes.
So yeah, i hope i get a lot of ppl reset for boosting.
I always report offensive emblems, but I don't really care about people boosting. I just don't do it anymore (at least not in obvious ways) because I know I'll get reset eventually.
So you admit cheating on MW2 ?
If so I would call that Karma mate.
And you did admitted to cheating in MW2. . .

Spider Mites on carnivorous plants?
Hey folks,
I've had a spider mite problem that I quelched but survived on my carnivorous plants, and I don't know how to address them there. I'm really worried about spraying them with anything but water because of the glue surfaces. Has anyone dealt with something like this before? One is a pinguicula, and the other is didierea. Help!
Al, yes, I am the queen of pointing out the obvious.
Carnivorous plants hate me - I can't get the humidity up high enough to keep them happy. Years ago, I bought a sundew with the idea that it would eat some fungus gnats for me. It sulked unless I put it under glass, which of course kept it away from the very bugs it was supposed to eat.
My gut instinct would be to go ahead and spray with whatever mite product you've got, but I'm guessing it's probably a better idea to check with the good folks at the Carnivorous Plants Forum before doing anything.

An excellent play done in a very different setting. This is a small, intimate theater with the audience sitting on both sides of the stage. The acting was very, very good.
Quotes & Highlights
"We have met Pablo Picasso, protean artistic genius. We are familiar with Pablo Picasso, voracious devourer and discarder of women. Now please welcome Pablo Picasso, quipmeister par excellence. " —Charles Isherwood, New York Times
"One of the pleasures of A Picasso is that, as always, Hatcher is a master of clever dialogue." —Jackie Demaline, The Cincinnati Enquirer
Written by Jeffrey Hatcher
Directed by Gilbert Cates
Starring Roma Downey and Peter Michael Goetz
Set in 1941, during the German occupation of Paris, Picasso is secreted to a dusty underground vault where he encounters a beautiful young Gestapo art critic-turned -interrogator. The sexy inquisitor's job is to get Picasso to authenticate three of his paintings amidst the vault full of artwork confiscated by the Nazis so that it can be publicly burned. It's Picasso under pressure. Who will win this cat-and-mouse game?

Network Security Using Firewall and Cryptographic Authentication
Free registration required
Executive Summary
The network Security is the hottest topic in the current research scenario. The information security is really threatened by obnoxious users. With increasing vulnerabilities, caused by port scan attacks, replay attacks and predominantly IP Spoofing, targeting services, the network behavior is getting malevolent. But there is a lack of any clear threat model. The authors have endeavored to consider this problem in order to improve the network security and enhance secure shell daemon protection. A mechanism, QUICKKNOCK, improving upon the potentialities of technologies such as port knocking and SPA (Single Packet Authorization), using Firewall and Cryptography, has been proposed.

The latest euro-zone sovereign credit rating downgrade lands in Italy today and comes courtesy of Standard & Poor's, which cut Italy by a notch to BBB from BBB+ with a negative outlook. From S&P:
The rating action reflects our view of a further worsening of Italy's economic prospects coming on top of a decade of real growth averaging minus 0.04%. Italy's economic output in the first quarter of 2013 was 8% lower than in the last quarter of 2007 and continues to fall. We have, moreover, lowered our GDP growth forecast for 2013 to minus 1.9%, from minus 1.4% in March 2013 and positive 0.5% in December 2011. Our expectation is that 2013 per capita GDP will be an estimated EUR25,000 or US$33,000, which is somewhat below 2007 levels.
In our view, the low growth stems in large part from rigidities in Italy's labor and product markets. Eurostat data suggests that wages have become misaligned with underlying productivity trends, weighing on Italy's competitiveness.
The Treasuries market doesn't seem too bothered about this or anything else today, with the ten-year note up 3/32 in price recently to yield 2.632%, according to Tradeweb data.

Patricia Clarkson
Born on December 29, 1959 in New Orleans, Louisiana
Good Night, and Good Luck. (2005)
Patricia Clarkson as "Shirley Wershba"
When Senator Joseph McCarthy begins his foolhardy campaign to root out Communists in America, CBS News impresario Edward R. Murrow (David Strathairn) dedicates himself to exposing the atrocities being committed by McCarthy's Senate "investigation." Murrow is supported by a news team that includes long-time friend and producer Fred Friendly (George Clooney). The CBS team does its best to point out the senator's lies and excesses, despite pressure from CBS' corporate sponsors to desist.
