In the night video surveillance, a perfect lighting is vitally important to get a clear vision and outstanding image quality.
Videotec has created a new and complete range of LED illuminators for cctv night monitoring, using the best quality components and the latest technology. That's why the GEKO lights give full warranty of their optimal performance, high efficiency, maximum durability and cost-effectiveness.
The GEKO series of LED illuminators provides excellent lighting for night video monitoring for SD and Megapixel cameras, for distances up to 240 meters.
The GEKO lights can be used in any environment, having been tested to comply with IP66/IP67 standards. Their best operating level is guaranteed in a wide temperature range, from -50°C to 60°C, and still maintaining their long term reliability.
The wide number of models available can serve almost any kind of lighting need and deliver an optimal coverage of the area with beams widths up to 60°.
The GEKO illuminators mount the latest generation of SMD LEDs. The Surface Mounted LED technology offers benefits such as longer lamp lifespan, higher reliability and lower power consumption.
Each model is supplied with a bracket for an easy wall mounting.
These illuminators incorporate a circuit that allows them to be powered directly from a 12Vdc/24Vac or 24Vdc supply. The bigger IRN models also accept a 230Vac power input directly, without the need for an additional power supply, thus reducing installation costs.
An adjustable built-in sensor is available for automatic activation and deactivation according to the light level on the scene.
Their unique and innovative architecture has been designed with detailed care to facilitate the optimal heat dissipation and to protect internal components, while increasing their efficiency and lifetime, and drastically reducing maintenance costs.
The GEKO's average life expectancy is of 11 years. The Videotec's advanced production capability and these illuminators long lifetime allow a low power energy reducing therefore the pollution from their manufacturing. This makes the GEKOs the best environmentally friendly choice.
The GEKO illuminators have been designed for hi-security surveillance applications such as military sites, perimeter monitoring, airports, prisons, harbors, as well as residential, commercial and urban monitoring.

Otitis externa, also called swimmer's ear, is an inflammation, irritation, or infection of the external ear canal. Swimmer's ear is caused by fungi or bacteria. Water that remains trapped in the ear canal (when swimming, for example) may provide a source for the growth of bacteria and fungi.
Many different factors can increase your child's chance of developing swimmer's ear. As the name implies, one of the factors is excessive wetness as with swimming, although it can occur without swimming. Other possible causes of this infection include the following:
Being in warm, humid places
Harsh cleaning of the ear canal
Trauma to the ear canal
Dry ear canal skin
Foreign body in the ear canal
Excess cerumen (ear wax)
Eczema and other forms of dermatitis
The following are the most common symptoms of swimmer's ear. However, each child may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms may include:
Redness of the outer ear
Itching in the ear
Pain, especially when touching or wiggling the ear lobe, which may spread to the neck, face, or side of the head
Drainage from the ear
Swollen glands in the upper neck or around the ear
Swollen ear canal
Muffled hearing or hearing loss
Full or plugged-up feeling in the ear
The symptoms of swimmer's ear may resemble other medical conditions or problems. Always consult your child's health care provider for a diagnosis.
Swimmer's ear may be diagnosed with a complete medical history and physical examination by your child's health care provider. Your child's provider may use an otoscope, a lighted instrument that helps to examine the ear and to aid in the diagnosis of ear disorders. This will help your child's provider know if there is also an infection in the middle ear, called otitis media. Although this infection usually does not occur with swimmer's ear, some children may have both types of infections.
Your child's health care provider may also take a culture of the drainage from the ear to help determine proper treatment.
Swimmer's ear, when properly treated by a health care provider, usually clears up within seven to 10 days. Specific treatment for swimmer's ear will be determined by your child's health care provider based on:
Your child's age, overall health, and medical history
Extent of the condition
Your child's tolerance for specific medications, procedures, or therapies
Expectations for the course of the condition
Your opinion or preference
Treatment may include
Antibiotic ear drops
Corticosteroid ear drops (to help decrease the swelling)
Pain medication
Keeping the ear dry, as directed by your child's health care provider
The following are some hints to help prevent swimmer's ear:
Use ear plugs for swimming or bathing.
Do not aggressively clean your child's ear canal.

Concentration at work in a quiet environment is pretty difficult, especially in open-plan offices. Different tasks and routines call for different zones, such as quiet zones or meeting areas. These are easy to create using the "Lindner Logic 690" dividing wall system, for example. It provides modular and flexible dividing walls for a wide variety of different configurations and functional extensions.
Thanks to the integrated absorbers, the dividing walls (developed jointly by Lindner and Design Ballendat), are prime noise absorbers. The effective reduction of reverberation times enable people to work in a pleasant atmosphere. The wall system can be outfitted with perforated metal or wooden elements.
The simple, mechanical ganging system for the walls means they can be assembled with no tools required – by a single person. The walls come with adjustable feet ready fitted, with glides or castors, the system can be moved or slid elsewhere at any time. On request, the "Lindner Logic 690" can be equipped with an integrated organizing system to create more order in the workplace.

Will the real Miss Beadle please stand up?
I am lucky enough to call Miss Beadle my friend, the REAL Miss Beadle.
Seventeen years ago my friendship with Ms. Charlotte Stewart was struck. She had already finished her role of Miss Beadle on Little House on the Prairie, and was now a famous Beverly Hills/Hollywood party planner. Charlotte was getting ready to celebrate a birthday with a party and asked me to supervise the food for it. Through the planning of her party we became friends.
It is hard to believe it has been so long. I am so lucky that Charlotte and her husband, David, are like family to me. I just got back from having dinner with them at their house in Napa. It really was like being with...family!
Charlotte has had an incredible career. It started in 1959 when she was crowned Miss Yuba City, then she had parts on the tv shows: My Three Sons, Gunsmoke, Bonanza, then a movie with Elvis, Speedway, a few more tv shows and then...Eraserhead, the famous David Lynch movie. WOW!!! Check out her bio. You will also see that besides the tv shows and David Lynch movies, she was also in Tremors with Kevin Bacon. See how close you are? You can play the game, 6 degrees of Separation from Kevin Bacon and score! (I am 1 degree away from Kevin Bacon, you are now 2!)
A couple years ago Charlotte set up a website, Liquid Butterfly. On that website she sells great memorabilia from her time on Little House, along with other periods. You should check it out!
I have to admit that my personal favorite is this poster:
Charlotte opened a store on Santa Monica Boulevard across the street from a recording studio, where, coincidentally, Jim Morrison/The Doors would record, among others. She would make clothes and embroidered jeans. To this day Charlotte is still sewing great things. Right now she is sewing and selling mini shoulder purses using "recycled" jeans and gives 10% to breast cancer research. Charlotte is a proud survivor of this nasty disease and does fund raising for the research.
I am currently in negotiations for some of these purses! I would like to sell them on my future website: www.eastsidefarm.com
As you will see it is under construction...soon!
Happy Easter! Eat Farm Fresh Eggs!

Ernest Orlando Lawrence (August 8, 1901 – August 27, 1958) was an American physicist and Nobel Laureate, known for his invention, utilization, and improvement of the cyclotron atom-smasher beginning in 1929, based on his studies of the works of Rolf Widerøe, and his later work in uranium-isotope separation for the Manhattan Project. Lawrence had a long career at the University of California, Berkeley, where he was a Professor of Physics. In 1939, Lawrence was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics for his work in inventing the cyclotron and developing its applications. Chemical element number 103 is named "lawrencium" in Lawrence's honor. He was also the first recipient of the Sylvanus Thayer Award.[1] His brother John H. Lawrence was known for pioneering in the field of nuclear medicine.
Contents |
Early life [edit]
Ernest Orlando Lawrence was born in Canton, South Dakota. His parents, Carl Gustavus and Gunda (née Jacobson) Lawrence, were both the offspring of Norwegian immigrants who had met while teaching at the high school in Canton, South Dakota, where his father was also the superintendent of schools. Growing up, his best friend was Merle Tuve, who would also go on to become a highly accomplished nuclear physicist.
Lawrence attended St. Olaf College in Minnesota, but he transferred to the University of South Dakota after his first year. Lawrence completed his bachelor's degree in 1922. He earned his master's degree in physics from the University of Minnesota in 1923. Next, Lawrence spent a year at the University of Chicago, and then he moved on to Yale University, where he completed his Ph.D. degree in physics in 1925, making him somewhat unusual in his field—a very promising young physical scientist who had received his entire education in the United States. These were years when study at one of the great science institutions of Europe was considered to be essential for anyone who truly wished to make a significant scientific progress[citation needed]. Lawrence remained at Yale University as a researcher, working in the photoelectric effect, and he became an assistant professor there in 1927.
In 1928, Lawrence was hired as an Associate Professor of Physics at the University of California, and two years later he became a full Professor, becoming the youngest Professor at the University of California. There, he was called the "Atom Smasher", and the man who "held the key" to atomic energy. "He wanted to do 'big physics,' the kind of work that could only be done on a large scale with a lot of people involved," said Herbert York, the first director of the Lawrence Livermore laboratory, as quoted on that Laboratory's official Web site. Lawrence was named before Ernest Lawrence Middle School in Chatsworth, California.
Robert Gordon Sproul was a member of the Bohemian Club, and he sponsored Lawrence's membership in 1932. Through this club, Lawrence met William Henry Crocker, Edwin Pauley, and John Francis Neylan. They were influential men who helped him obtain money for his energetic nuclear particle investigations. There was great hope for medical uses to come from the development of particle physics, and this led to much of the early funding for advances Lawrence was able to obtain.[2]
The Developments of the Cyclotron [edit]
The invention that brought Lawrence to international fame started out as a sketch on a scrap of a paper napkin. While sitting in the library one evening, Lawrence glanced over a journal article by Rolf Widerøe[3] and was intrigued by one of the diagrams.[4] The idea was to produce very high-energy particles required for atomic disintegration by means of a succession of very small "pushes." The device as depicted however, was laid out in a straight line using increasingly longer electrodes.
Lawrence saw that such an accelerator would soon become too long and unwieldy for his university laboratory. In pondering a way to make the accelerator more compact, Lawrence decided to set a circular accelerating chamber between the poles of an electromagnet. The magnetic field would hold the charged protons in a spiral path as they were accelerated between just two semicircular electrodes connected to an alternating potential. After a hundred turns or so, the protons would impact the target as a beam of high-energy particles. Lawrence excitedly told his colleagues that he had discovered a method for obtaining particles of very high energy without the use of any high voltage.
Other scientists had investigated similar concepts but Lawrence is credited with developing it further and turning it into practice.[5]
The first model of Lawrence's cyclotron was made out of brass, wire, and sealing wax and was only four inches in diameter—it could literally be held in one hand.[6] It probably cost $25 in all. And it worked: When Lawrence applied 2,000 volts of electricity to his makeshift cyclotron on January 2, 1931, he got 80,000-electron volt protons spinning around (at about 1% the speed of light). Through his increasingly larger machines, Lawrence was able to provide the crucial equipment needed for experiments in high energy physics. Around this device, Lawrence built up his Radiation Laboratory, which would become the world's foremost laboratory for the new field of nuclear physics research in the 1930s. He received a patent for the cyclotron in 1934,[7] which he assigned to the Research Corporation. In 1936 the Radiation Laboratory became an official department of the University of California with Lawrence formally appointed its Director. He served in that capacity until his death. In 1937, he was elected a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.[8]
In November 1939, Lawrence was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics for his work on the cyclotron, the first particle accelerator to achieve high energies. He was the first of only two accelerator physicists who have won the Nobel Prize, the other one being Simon van der Meer. Not only was he the first at Berkeley to become a Nobel Laureate, he was also the first ever to be so honored while at a state-supported university. The award ceremony was held on February 29, 1940 in Berkeley, California due to World War II, in the auditorium of Wheeler Hall on the campus of the university with Lawrence receiving his medal from Carl E. Wallerstedt, Sweden's Consul General in San Francisco.
World War II and the Manhattan Project [edit]
During World War II, Lawrence eagerly helped to ramp up the American investigation of the possibility of a weapon utilizing nuclear fission. His Radiation Laboratory at U.C. Berkeley (known as the Rad Lab), became one of the major centers for wartime nuclear research, and it was Lawrence who first introduced J. Robert Oppenheimer into what would soon become the Manhattan Project. An early champion of the electromagnetic separation method to enrich uranium and increase its percentage of fissile U-235, Lawrence manufactured his magnetic calutrons — specialized forms of mass spectrometers — for the massive isotope separation plants in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. It should be noted that Ernest Lawrence saw magnetic separation, or enrichment, as the best short term solution at hand, and it was Lawrence that demanded that the Government also simultaneously and generously sponsor research into chemical enrichment techniques that would eventually become more efficient. After successful completion and testing of the first atomic bomb at the Trinity test site in New Mexico, the question of how to use the now functional weapon on Japan became an issue for the scientists. While Oppenheimer favored no demonstration of the power of the new weapon to Japanese leaders, Lawrence felt that a demonstration would be wise. No demonstration was approved by the military. President Truman felt that to get the Japanese Military to surrender, and avoid the planned massive invasion of Japan with up to one million casualties predicted, the two remaining atomic bombs built through the Manhattan Project would be dropped on Japan to end the war in the Pacific.
Lawrence's secretary, Helen Griggs married the future Nobel Prize in Chemistry winner, Glenn T. Seaborg, in 1942, as the three of them made their way to work on the Manhattan Project in Chicago, Illinois.
Post-war career and legacy [edit]
After the war, Lawrence campaigned extensively for government sponsorship of large scientific programs. Lawrence was a forceful advocate of "Big Science" with its requirements for big machines and big money.
For his service to his country, Lawrence received the Enrico Fermi Award from the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission in 1957, and was the first recipient of the prestigious Sylvanus Thayer Award by the United States Military Academy in 1958.
In July 1958, President Eisenhower requested that Lawrence travel to Geneva, Switzerland, to help negotiate a proposed treaty with the Soviet Union to ban nuclear weapons testing. Despite suffering from a serious flare-up of his chronic colitis, Lawrence decided to go, but he became ill while in Geneva, and was rushed to the hospital at Stanford University. Lawrence died one month later in Palo Alto, California, at the age of 57.
Just 23 days after his death, the Regents of the University of California voted to rename two of the university's nuclear research sites after Lawrence: the Lawrence Livermore and Lawrence Berkeley Laboratories. The Ernest Orlando Lawrence Award was established in his memory in 1959. Chemical element number 103, discovered at LBNL in 1961, is named "lawrencium" in his honor. In 1968 the Lawrence Hall of Science public science education center was established in honor of Ernest O. Lawrence, who had been throughout his career a passionate advocate of encouraging public interest in science, particularly among schoolchildren. The museum features a permanent exhibit devoted to Lawrence's life.

Princess Royal University Hospital to review restaurant opening hours decision (From News Shopper)

Princess Royal University Hospital to review restaurant opening hours decision
10:51am Thursday 7th February 2013 in Bromley By Patrick Grafton-Green
AFTER coming under fire from staff and patients, the Princess Royal University Hospital in Farnborough has decided to review the decision to reduce its restaurant opening hours.
From this month the restaurant is only open from 7.30am to 2.30pm on weekdays and is closed entirely on weekends.
It was previously open from 7am to 7pm throughout the week and weekend.
This led to fears that hard working doctors and nurses would struggle to get a proper meal for much of the week, with members of the public complaining the decision showed a complete disregard for people who use the facilities.
The PRUH have announced: "After careful consideration and listening to the views of our staff and patients, we have recognised the concerns and this is now being reviewed."
8:45am Fri 8 Feb 13
Lets hope the review panel in their cosy offices with kettles etc. recognise the need for their frontline staff to be fed and watered during their hours of work and not just in shortened office hours.
3:19pm Fri 8 Feb 13
Concerned of Orpington
9:48pm Fri 8 Feb 13

SmartSound's new release Ambient Pulse, from the Strata Series, delivers a comprehensive selection of futuristic beds from mysterious to progressive. A hypnotic beat is present in each atmospheric track, and also able to be suspended, if need be, using the Mood Mapping or Instrument Mix feature.
Composer for this album, Dennis Franco, devoted himself to rhythm, inspired by Police drummer, Stewart Copeland, at the age of 15, and the echoes of that inspiration reverberate through the tracks—percussion as instrument in its own right, not just background beat.
Stunning multi-layer orchestral tracks populate A Breath of Fresh Air from popular SmartSound composer, Francisco Becker, from dark, mysterious numbers for high-tension/drama sequences to light and frolicky explorations that tease with cheerful anticipation for the tender side of video.
Many bold, ominous words describe Dramatic Sensation, such as tense, suspenseful, and serious. A sense of action and urgency pound this Orchestral, Drama-style track for big-budget Cinematic projects, or to make your Indie Film, Animation, or suspense trailer sound big-budget.
Singer-songwriter and musician Michael Alan Raphael has created a richly-textured album for Smartsound with his new release, Michael Raphael. His songs have appeared in movies, commercials, on television, and records. The tracks on this album lean towards the soulful and quiet. Even with generous instrumentation, they will never overwhelm your scene, but will subtly underpin it instead.
Melancholy 2nd Place lends a feeling of uncertainty, of losing ground with someone special — "When I see you face to face, I feel alone, so alone" – This serious, nostalgic song deserves a home in an Indie Film, or made-for-TV movie drama.
» Read the entire Royalty Free Music by Michael Raphael article
The introspective, thoughtful tracks of Indie Score were created by no less than six talented composers, several of whom also appear in new releases, Indie Film Fest, and Classical Rock and Roll. We're highlighting the songs of composer Alessandro Alessandroni in this post, while mentioning a couple of other favorites as well.
The tracks of Indie Score provide perfect cues for scenes of meaningful moments in life, such as in the heartwarming orchestral strains of Yuri Sazonoff's It's Got to Be Love. Add feelings of hope and joy with this refreshing, gentle track featuring orchestra, acoustic guitar and French Horn.
Smartsound's new release Indie Film Fest serves up a bemusing set of cues from poignant to cool to quirky; the perfect musical tool kit for Indie Film makers. It brings three accomplished musician/composers from around the globe to create this beautiful album.
German-born Tilman Sillescu has won multiple awards for Video Game music composition in Europe and the U.S. He showed an intense interest in orchestral music from a very young age, and has also composed music for TV, movies, and film trailers. His songs, heartwarming At Twilight and quirky, old-fashioned Back in the Days seem to belong on the dance floor, especially of some 1930's-era European scene. Both seem to lean on some exotic instrument for their panache; in the case of At Twilight, it's no mystery—the accordion is responsible.
Smartsound's new release Rock Festival pays homage to the hard-driving rock and heavy metal bands of the '70's and '80's, with live recordings from multiple artists, many of which are old enough to have been hands-on participants then!
Five of the ten tracks on this album are from Eighties rocker Jordan Tarlow (Fuzztones.) Take your travel or action footage into overdrive with fierce, punchy Electric Overload and Thick or Thin, featuring blazing drum beat and rock style electric guitar. Works well with scenes of speed or intense fighting.
» Read the entire Royalty Free Album - Rock Festival article
It's no surprise Classic Rock and Roll cuts from Smartsound's new release sound like they just got off the 70's Rock Boat. Two-time Emmy winner Ron Komie, is the composer behind six of the songs on this rockin' album. Ron's diverse musical scores have been used in hundreds of TV shows, films, trailers and commercials, including Thick As Thieves, Click, Marley & Me, Fever Pitch, The View, Enlightened, Harry's Law, Amazing Race, and Shameless.
Before hitting it hard and fast, rock and roll laid a Foundation, with sweet Rock/Pop band melodies. Try this acoustic rock track for Commercials, Public Service Announcements, and transitional scenes in your video.
Like other aspects of commercial advertising, royalty free corporate music is intended to sell a product, a corporate culture, or a dream, in an upbeat, influential way. Smartsound's new release, Horizons, by Kevin Harris, delivers maximum flexibility with multi-layer tracks. Acoustic guitars and rhythm section are featured on this album, a perfect set for corporate/industrial videos, websites, and presentations.
SmartSound's new release, Beauty and Strength, joins Dramatic Stories and Narration Backgrounds from composer Francisco Becker in a beautiful new collection of orchestral moods. This Chilean - Italian pianist and composer studied music from primary school through college, earning a degree in "Specialist in Arrangement and Composition of Modern Music" from the Institute of Modern Music, Santiago, Chile.
Composer Kevin Harris, at the helm of Smartsound's new corporate royalty free music release, Progress, has contributed to no less than 10 albums for Smartsound. Most of them are in the dynamic, upbeat genre of acoustic backgrounds for videos, websites, and presentation narration. The one exception is a couple of tracks from Love Stories, which, nevertheless, maintain the mellow atmosphere that is his signature style.

Re: Audi A4 (B7) 2.7 litre v6 diesel engine
That is correct. But the 3.0 is quattro only (Torsen, I believe, rather than
the Haldex in our TT's).
I am getting fed up with BMW's now. Their cars do drive nicely, but the
dealers ( I tried 7 so far) have all been totally incompetent, lying rip-off
merchants, and the hostility from other road users is silly.
Did you know that the new Mercedes 3.0 v6 diesel engine has an aluminium 4
bearing crankshaft and produces 375 ft/lbs of torque?
Wow, how long will that last, I wonder.
Re: Audi A4 (B7) 2.7 litre v6 diesel engine
Don't think the gearbox will make any difference to the number of main
bearings! Like I said, the 2.7 is a short stroke version of the 3.0 so will
have the same number of bearings.
I'm afraid that the attitude that you get as a BMW driver is heading towards
Audi drivers too. Thanks to the Q7 and RS4 Audi is now attracting the same
sort of bad press that BMW has had for years.
I don't think you'll find Audi dealers any different from BMW dealers.
They're all very nice when you're buying a car but that's where the good
service ends
Re: Audi A4 (B7) 2.7 litre v6 diesel engine
I did not mean to infer that having Quattro or not would make any difference
to the number of journal bearings supporting the crankshaft, I simply meant
that the 3.0 was only available as a 'full time' four wheel drive, which I
do not require. But I did know that the 3.0 v6 diesel was the 'parent' of
the 2.7 v6 diesel.
Again, you're right, during our time as Audi owners, we have been to many
Audi centres whose mechanics are just as poor as those in BMW dealerships.
The cars we taken for work at franchises, whether they were BMWs, Audis,
Fords, Citroens, Vauxhalls, Peugeots or even our little Daewoo Matiz we use
for shopping in towns, the mechanics always seem to leave the cars damaged
or mis-treated, and the workmanship sloppy.
I tend to do as much of the work I can myself now as I have as much time as
I need.
I think that the universal 'bonus system' that allow mechanics get paid more
if the work is completed in less time than the manufacturer specifies for
it, is particularly unfair to the owner of the vehicle as it encourages the
mechanic to rush through jobs to earn more bonus / money.

What should every bicyclist do before going for a ride? (Answer 1 below.)
How many times should a bicyclist stop when exiting a driveway? (Answer 2 below.)
Where should bicyclists ride? (Answer 3 below.)
These are just a few of the things Grade 4 students learned during BikeEd, which was held February 20 – 22.
During the first class, students also learned the importance of proper helmet fit as well as the reason for having, and obeying, the rules of the road. The Hawaii Bicycling League (HBL) instructor was interesting and engaging. Students were also given word-find puzzles and other "homework" to prepare them for the bicycle skills portion of the course.
The next two days were spent on bikes practicing various skills such as the obstacle course, stopping without skidding and exiting driveways. A slow "race" helped instructors assess students' ability to balance on the bike and was challenging as well as fun.
On-road practice included procedures for stopping at stop signs, making right and left turns and maintaining checkpoint. Each skill was preceded by a short discussion of the steps involved along with the importance of following the procedures. Each skill was practiced several times around the neighborhood.

Lets face it, Instagram is here and it's here to stay. Facebook acquisition, adopting Android platform after rocking iOS and the very fact that social networking is about "photos" more than status updates. People like to tell stories/share photos more than anything and we have all been there. Initially pretending not to care about Instagram and then jumping on the bandwagon.
I do not credit myself of coming up with this idea. Photowalks have been around for long, spearheaded by several Flickr groups and bloggers. But it's always had an entry barrier – the DSLR Cameras. So I wanna put a spin on it, combine the networking zest of Tweetups, collective sourcing power of bloggers, brands which are interested to connect with this group of smartphone trotting people and make it a fun meet up for all! Maybe even have a space to show the Top-10 photos from every such meet.
The Agenda is simple: Decide a venue to meet, Map out the path & start clicking. All Instagram Photos must be shared with #TheInstaWalk hashtag, this makes it easy to track the content & conversations. Maybe we can even have an Annual TheInstaWalk Day… Dates?
We will start with Pune & then see how this community can spread its wings nationwide or even internationally. Let me know if you have a suggestion or comment, just post it or tweet to me at @MrShri and follow @TheInstaWalk.
Disclaimer: I do not own any of the brands mentioned in this post.

Oysters on the menu
At last outer London commuters can take advantage of the lower fairs that are available to Oyster users. Livingstone's policy of picking fights with the rail operators made for good headlines but didn't deliver the Oyster improvements that Londoners needed.
Even the hyper critical Chair of the Assembly's Transport Committee (Lib Dem, Caroline Pidgeon) seems impressed. "After repeated delays it is welcome that Oyster pay-as-you-go is finally being extended to all cover all National Rail services in London." she said.
4 comments:
- VS said...
this is really a good news for most of londoners and specially people in SE where there are not so many tubes.
- 24/11/09 00:25
Shame the cost of pay-as-you-go on national rail within the london zones WILL NOT be the same as the tube - we will STILL pay more to cover the same zones in the SE on the trains than others do on the tube - it'll just be paid through the oyster. So we get less service per hours on trains and still pay more, delighted.
- 25/11/09 12:15
I'm very pleased that national rail fares will be cheaper on PAYG than they current are, even if they are more expensive than Underground. It is worth noting that you can get a season ticket on national rail to a London terminus for a fraction (around 75%) of the price of a travelcard on the underground.
What I find more worrying is the cuts to train services from Blackheath, South London Line, Bellingham to Victoria, and Sydenham line that are coming in over the next few months and years. These changes will give priority to Kent, Surrey, and Sussex commuters rather than Londoners. It is a shame that the Mayor of London and the Tories in the GLA are not fighting for Londoner's rail services and are happy to give them away to richer commuters from the Home Counties. - 25/11/09 13:42
Well James wrote "At last outer London commuters can take advantage of the lower fairs that are available to Oyster users" and that implies that the fares will be 'lower' along the lines of existing oyster fares - they WILL NOT. The may be lower than then current paper ticket fares (NOT YET confirmed by Southeastern but I am holding my breathe) BUT as the rail network WILL NOT allow transfer to the underground on the same trip ANY use of the underground to get to the bit of London you actually need will push you onto a second ticket and get you to the daily travel card cap faster than it would on the underground where I can move between lines on ONE ticket charge. I trvel in from Crayford every day and the difference between two PAYG on Oyster into zone 1 from zone 6 will still be £1.70 - and I will still have to pay a second fare to use any tube. It adds a payment method and very little else, in the south east we remain second class Londoners if we have to use rail.

Bolingbrook arrest suspect in attempted attacks on two teens
By Brian Stanley email@example.com March 6, 2013 3:12PM
Kareem L. Green
Updated: April 8, 2013 7:49AM
Bolingbrook police have arrested a 20-year-old man who allegedly tried grabbing two high school girls in January.
Kareem L. Green, of 505 Preston Drive, has been charged with unlawful restraint and battery, jail records show.
Around 3:20 p.m. Jan. 29, a 16-year-old was walking home from Bolingbrook High School when a man tried forcing her into a Ford Explorer at Radcliff Drive and Old Stone Road.
A passer-by saw the struggle and yelled at the attacker, who then ran away, police said.
Two days later, another 16-year-old student was returning home when she was grabbed from behind in the second-floor hallway of an apartment building in the 300 block of Woodcreek Drive.
She also struggled with her attacker who ran off toward Plimmer Park.
Lt. Mike Rompa said both victims and a witness identified Green, who was taken into custody by police Tuesday afternoon.

Rental / Operating Lease
Why pay up front for all the vital equipment you need to run your aircraft when you can rent it for an affordable monthly sum and potentially claim a tax rebate at the same time?
Why it pays to rent:
Hire Purchase
With a Hire Purchase agreement you gain equity in your aircraft with each payment over the term of the agreement. You can also choose to include balloon payments up to any amount at any time during the rental period, so if you choose to own the aircraft sooner, you can.
Why it makes sense:
Financial Lease
With a Financial Lease, we buy the aircraft you want, and then rent it back to you for the term of the lease contract. There is a predetermined residual value at the end of the lease term.
Why it pays to lease:

OCULA is a unique collection of plug-in tools for NUKE that solve common problems with stereoscopic imagery, boost productivity in post production and ultimately help deliver a more rewarding stereoscopic viewing experience.
Problems addressed include:
The plug-ins are designed to automatically replicate key processes on left and right channels and help artists polish and refine stereoscopic material, literally removing headaches from the final viewing experience. OCULA, created by The Foundry's SCI-TECH Award®-winning R&D team, uses algorithms to work out the geometrical relationship between left and right cameras and generate disparity maps.
Disparity maps track and correlate the differences in positional space and movement between corresponding pixels in the left and right cameras, delivering pixel-level control over images. Knowing where disparities occur, OCULA tools apply corrections by warping, stretching and squeezing only the areas of an image that require treatment. Image manipulation using disparity maps is different to the X, Y or Z-axis shifting of images, where only whole image planes are being shifted.
These building blocks enable OCULA to assist in correcting issues such as vertical alignment and localised colour density differences, and focus mismatches, saving artists a huge amount of pain in performing day to day tasks such as keying and tracking which can become very cumbersome on uncorrected footage.
The OCULA plug-in set contains additional tools that facilitate the copying of rotos and paint strokes from one eye to the other, reduce interaxial separation, performing stereo retimes, create new views from a stereo pair and generate per-view depth maps. All corrections can be made to the left and right eye channels either together or separately, minimising or eliminating discomfort from the stereo viewing experience.
OCULA is available for NUKEX and NUKE.
The Foundry's Jon Starck highlights OCULA 3.0's new features.
Download a Free 15 Day OCULA evaluation.
Check out OCULA in action on our Vimeo channel:
"OCULA is at the very heart of the new post-production tools that have emerged to deal with stereo. NUKE and OCULA were used extensively on Avatar, and we explore the lessons learned with Simon Robinson, Chief Scientist of the Foundry. OCULA, in particular, is a real partnership between filmmakers on the cutting edge and the UK software developer." Read the full fxguide article.

Biomedical research is controversial and concerning, but a boon to the local economy. Target 7 has learned the county could soon be bending its laws to make sure one facility remains here for the long haul.
Lifesaving research or animal cruelty, that's question Lovelace Respiratory Research Institute wants cleared up before its facility comes under county control.
Biomedical animal research has been happening in their facility since 1947, testing treatments for lung cancer, emphysema and even biological warfare.
The facility often uses animals like primates, rodents and dogs. A video provided by the institute shows the types of federally-mandated research performed in the facility, including subjecting animals to cigarette smoke.
"In some ways, it's a necessary evil. If there were some magical computer or some machine that could predict whether or not a drug was going to be harmful, believe me, we would use it," Lovelace Respiratory Research Institute President and CEO Robert Rubin said.
In an exclusive and rare interview, Rubin told Target 7 the institute will soon be privatized. The land it's on was transferred from federal authorities to Bernalillo County. That would make the respiratory research institute subject to all the county rules and regulations, including its animal welfare ordinance.
Under current county ordinance, some of the research they do to animals at the institute could be considered against the law. So Rubin is asking the county to give the institute a blanket exception from any animal abuse rules.
"If we fail to provide an exemption, it's quite likely they won't be here in Albuquerque. That's not something I'm comfortable with," Bernalillo County Commissioner Wayne Johnson said. "Point blank, we can't afford to lose over 2,000 jobs."
The institute, controversial as it may be, is a massive, driving force behind Albuquerque's economy. Thousands of direct and indirect jobs contributing to a $130 million, something Johnson believes the entire county needs.
"These are well-paid jobs. These are scientific jobs, and necessary research that benefits humans every day," Johnson said.
