IR Cure System With Dual Voltage Gun
Product Review (submitted on May 5, 2012):
When I first received the package it was missing some parts, the color chart, and the infrared thermometer. I am getting this corrected EXCEPT for the infrared thermometer because they say it doesn't come with one. Feel free to check the "Content" tab EASTWOOD! It also does not include instructions on set up or how to operate! What gives?! I thought Eastwood would be more professional and full proof. Negative company experience but cheap and quality product. Overall, after you wing it and do some basic research it becomes fun and effective! Mixed emotions here but as long as I never have to deal with Eastwood again I will buy more of their products.

BERGEN COUNTY - The results from Bergen County, New Jersey's electoral bellwether, were mixed this election season. But for the Bergen County Republican Organization (BCRO), the election might be less about voting districts and more about dissent. In the American South, they would say it's all over but the shouting regarding the election. But in Bergen, the blame game has begun, and the internal Republican bloodletting continues unabated.
Republican Gov. Chris Christie walloped Democratic challenger Barbara Buono by 50,000 votes in Bergen as part of his decisive re-election victory. But while GOP Sheriff Michael Saudino survived the vote, other Republicans did not: one freeholder, John Mitchell, lost by a slim margin, and the entire Legislative District 38 slate went down in closely-run defeat.
The two pillars of the Bergen Republicans, Bergen County Executive Kathleen Donovan and Bergen County Republican Chairman Bob Yudin, have long stood in opposition to each other. Now Republicans on both sides of the intra-party divide assert the other is to blame for the GOP losses this election season.
But for Yudin, the 2013 election narrative is not about loss.
"We had outstanding success in this campaign. The sheriff got re-elected, and two of our three freeholders got re-elected. The one freeholder who did not get re-elected did not get re-elected by approximately 269 votes out of 200,000 votes cast. We won 85 municipal elections, versus 37 for the Democrats," Yudin said. "You can't blame me if the governor didn't have coattails. He didn't have coattails anywhere throughout the state. I don't run the legislative races - it's all run by Trenton. Yet my detractors say we didn't do well. There are a group of people who will never be for me. Why am I being blamed for this?
"I'm not denying that there's division in the party," Yudin added. "A weekend before the election, the county executive was part of a bullet e-mail campaign for [Freeholder] Maura DeNicola. She sent out an email that said 'Vote for Maura." She didn't say vote for [Freeholders John Felice and John Mitchell]. That's despicable. I did everything for the whole team."
Donovan endorsed DeNicola in writing, but did not endorse Felice and Mitchell in the same way. DeNicola has supported Donovan in her bid to stop the proposed merger of the Bergen County Police Office into the Sheriff's Department; Felice and Mitchell, along with Yudin, support consolidation.
Jeanne Baratta, Donovan's chief of staff, said the road to the county executive's support was always wide open.
"She endorsed anybody that asked for her endorsement," Baratta said. "She put a robocall out for District 38 candidates because they asked her. She did a lot of local endorsements. Anybody that asked the county executive for an endorsement, she did it for them. She would have done it for Felice and Mitchell, but she absolutely would not have taken it upon herself to do it. She supported the entire Republican ticket in Bergen County."
Felice, however, said the Bergen GOP can "agree to disagree."
"Words have meaning, and words can be parsed out," Felice, who won re-election, said. "As the top elected official in the county, I would expect her to be consistent."
"Pointing fingers is unproductive," DeNicola said. "I certainly have a good relationship with the county executive, and we do communicate with one another, and that is so critically important for us as a party moving forward."
"I'm not going to cast blame either way," Mitchell said. "The way I view it, I think about could I have gone to another V.F.W. hall, or another senior center, to get a few more votes. Who knows what's in the minds of the voters?"
Several Republican operatives who spoke to PolitickerNJ.com don't know what's in the minds of their collective leadership.
"Yudin and the Republican Party got played by (Bergen County Democratic Chairman Lou) Stellato. They got played big time. They didn't think he was going to mount a real challenge in the legislative races," said a male GOP operative. "Yudin and [State Sen. Gerry Cardinale (R -39)] had everybody bullet-voting to get rid of Maura DeNicola, and it backfired. The party is crumbling from the inside."
"The BCRO's dysfunction - I don't know where you can start," said a female Republican operative, who indicated that the party is not reaching out enough to female, Hispanic, Asian and younger voters in Bergen. "All you need to do is look at a Democratic Party picture, and look at a Republican one. The GOP is not resonating with the demographics of the county or the country. The Republican leadership in Bergen is more concerned with their own personal agendas as opposed to building an energized party on a strong, grassroots foundation. If you don't do that, people will walk away, and they have walked away."
Tepid fundraising, underperforming candidates and a lousy party brand are threatening to deprive House Republicans of the sweeping 2014 gains that some top party officials have been predicting this year, according to Politicker alum Alex Isenstadt, now of Politico.Read More >

Abstract—Active contour and surface models, also known as deformable models, are powerful image segmentation techniques. Geometric deformable models implemented using level set methods have advantages over parametric models due to their intrinsic behavior, parameterization independence, and ease of implementation. However, a long claimed advantage of geometric deformable models—the ability to automatically handle topology changes—turns out to be a liability in applications where the object to be segmented has a known topology that must be preserved. In this paper, we present a new class of geometric deformable models designed using a novel topology-preserving level set method, which achieves topology preservation by applying the simple point concept from digital topology. These new models maintain the other advantages of standard geometric deformable models including subpixel accuracy and production of nonintersecting curves or surfaces. Moreover, since the topology-preserving constraint is enforced efficiently through local computations, the resulting algorithm incurs only nominal computational overhead over standard geometric deformable models. Several experiments on simulated and real data are provided to demonstrate the performance of this new deformable model algorithm.

Building a better sports sedan is seldom if ever a simple task. It involves striking a delicate and often elusive balance between real-world requirements (passenger comfort, cruising range, cargo capacity) and gut-punching performance.

More Pro Football Chaos as 8th Circuit Sides With NFL, Reinstates Lockout During Draft
Posted Apr 29, 2011 7:28 PM CDT
By Martha Neil
Siding with the National Football League, a federal appeals court today in effect ordered a lockout back into place by granting a temporary stay of a lower court's order in favor of players.
The 2-1 decision of the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals can be expected to create further uncertainty and some chaos, coming as the second round of the NFL draft and shortly after some teams had opened their doors to players and begun some operations, reports the Associated Press.
"The purpose of this administrative stay is to give the court sufficient opportunity to consider the merits of the motion for a stay pending appeal," the majority of the appellate panel said in the court's order (PDF).
However, a dissenting judge said the NFL could have waited for a final decision on its motion for a stay and reestablished its lockout then, if it wins.

"Life of a Sloth"
It is more enjoyable to watch a sloth move across Mexico than to listen to this book. I can't believe I actually listed to it completely. I was driving in the car for a 10 hour ride. My daughters were begging me to turn it off after 4 hours of listening. The last 30 minutes was better than the rest of the book and gave it an interesting twist.
"Life of Pi Review"
This book was not only a tale of survival but a tale of friendship and holding to God. It's just a great story to get lost in, quite an adventure. Once I got started, I couldn't stop. A must read.
"Great Book"
A very easy listen, that kept me on my feet. The end of the book gave a very thought provoking recap of the prior events.
"The Life of Pi"
This is an exciting story, full of unexpected events and adventure. It is written in a compelling way, that allows you to feel deeply the apprehesion experienced by the characters. In the end, you really want that all you have just heard was true, as you will be amazed by this very creative and original book.
"Life of Pi"
WOW, I am still thinking about this story 3 days after finishing it. What may start out as a seemingly slow quickly changes into a story you want to listen to all the way through in one sitting.
The narrators are excellent and they are able to portray the empathy and horrific events almost too well. I highly recommend this audiobook
Great book
"A story to slowly draw you in"
This book started out a little slow, and I have to admit I found the narrator's voice annoying at first, but as the story progressed there was a growing interest to know what would happen next. After I finished listening to this book, I actually spent a lot more time reflecting on the story and its lessons than I would have expected. As for the level of detail the author put into this, I simply cannot believe it is not a true story (it's just too intricate to be fiction). I can see why this book came highly recommended. My only qualm would be this: what exactly did religion have to do with this?
"Enthralling and Wonderful!"
One of the best books I have ever read! The audio narration is outstanding. Very funny and magical book.
"Twist and Turns on the Water"
This book will keep you afloat for hours on its hidden meanings, which are from start to finish. Whenever you feel you known Pi Patel, you realise he is more than three and some numbers.
When the human will is stretched to its furthest reaches, what can a young boy accomplish against such adversity?
Listen, and enjoy the ride.
Nice book. Plenty of bright ideas. Unexpected end. A litle boring when it gets too descriptive. In general, I recommend it

Natalie's Co-op Job Search Blog: A Disappointing Interview Experience
Natalie's Co-op Job Search Blog: A Disappointing Interview Experience
By: npope
Like many people, I did not get a co-op job from my first job interview. That is pretty normal. I felt alright with this because I managed to get another job interview soon after my first one! I was more confident about this interview because I had a rough idea about the kinds of questions I would be asked and I felt a little more prepared in general.
For this interview, I made absolutely sure to allow myself a lot of time. I started my drive two hours before the interview, and ended up arriving to my destination 45 minutes before my scheduled time. As suggested in the workshops, I did not go inside the office yet and went to a coffee shop to kill some time so I wouldn't get too nervous. About 10 minutes before my interview I walked over to the building. I noticed I was much calmer than my first interview when I arrived early, but I was still nervous! When my interviewer came by she was very professional and reserved. It was a bit of an adjustment because I expected someone as friendly as my last interviewer.
We sat down, and my interviewer asked me if I would like a glass of water. After my last interview where I was asked 3 times if I would like a glass of water, I thought the appropriate thing would be to cut to the chase and to say 'yes please'. So when I did, she frowned and said 'I'll be just a minute' and left to get the water herself. I realized my interviewer was just being polite to offer me water, and I should have said "I'm fine, thank you".
After that great start, the interview began. One question was about 'creative presentations'. I told her a pretty funny story about how one time I presented a presentation in a 'rap form'. I was chuckling a little as I told the story, and I thought that she might have found it funny as well. Instead, she looked at me confused and said "haha... that's... funny" in a flat tone.
It's always a bit disappointing not to get the response you want when you are telling a story to anyone, but it feels 10 times worse in an interview because it feels almost like a performance. In retrospect, I probably should have realized that this lady was not looking for humor based on my initial interactions with her. When I first met my interviewer, she seemed very conservative, so perhaps humor might not have been appropriate.
The interviewer then asked me to talk about my resume. Because I know myself pretty well, I was able to talk for a long time. At some points I could see on her face that I was going on too long and in too much detail, and tried to cut back. At one point she even said "wow…that was detailed". One thing that I always find difficult in interviews is trying to gauge my audience. How much detail should I give them? Is this relevant? Clearly, based on my interviewer's reaction, I went a little off the mark.
I got the feeling that she was not very impressed with me when she told me about another candidate's "excellent suggestion", and I sat there asking myself "How will I top that?". I felt even more concerned when she asked "Do you have anything to tell me that will WOW me?" I was so certain that I did not get the job when she asked me these questions, and yet, I was ok with that. When I realized this, I was actually relieved. Clearly we were not on the same page, and if our personalities did not work well together during the initial interview, imagine how difficult it would be to work with one another!
She seemed like a nice person, but we were just not on the same page. Although I felt pretty disappointed with myself, I did learn a lot from this interview. I need to be able to deal with different personality types and not have the expectation that everyone will be as open and friendly as my first interviewer was. This interviewer was very professional, and I needed to focus on being professional as well. Although I did not get the job, I learned that not everyone will respond the way you want them to, and not everyone will act the way you expect them to. The key is to observe the situation and act accordingly.
I learned a lot from my past two interviews, check out how I applied what I learned at my third interview!

Learning Curves For Energy Technology and Policy Analysis: A Critical Assessment
AbstractIn this paper, which forms a chapter in the forthcoming Book "Delivering a Low Carbon Electricity System: Technologies, Economics and Policy"†, Jamasb and Kohler revisit the literature on learning curves and their application to energy technology and climate change policy analysis and modeling. The academic literature and policy documents have in recent years embraced the learning curves and applied the concept to technology analysis and forecasting cost reductions. We argue that learning curves have often been used or assumed uncritically in technology analysis and draw parallels between the use of learning rates in energy technological progress and climate change modeling to that of discount rates in social cost benefit analysis. The paper discusses that care needs to be taken in applying learning curves, originally developed as an empirical tool to assess the effect of learning by doing in manufacturing, to analysis innovation and technical change. Finally, we suggest some potential extensions of learning curves, e.g. by incorporating R&D and diffusion effects into learning models, and other areas where learning curves may potentially be a useful tool in energy technology policy and analysis.

Reports of aluminum heat-treat plate's demise in the aerospace industry have been greatly exaggerated, analysts say, despite the persistent onslaught of headlines about the impending switch to carbon fiber composites.
Despite the encroachment of lightweight composites, aerospace aluminum plate demand will register a 40-percent increase over the next four years, peaking at slightly less than 700 million pounds annually vs. 500 million pounds currently, according to Kevin Michaels, principal and co-founder of AeroStrategy LLC, Ann Arbor, Mich.
Michaels said he completely understands why there is a perception among the public that composites will soon eliminate the need for aluminum plate, but there isn't really any data to support that outlook. That's why AeroStrategy embarked on a wide, sweeping raw materials market assessment study over the past year. "We were frustrated by analysis by antidote, where someone would throw out that the (Boeing Co.) 787 is 52-percent composite so aluminum must be dead," he said. "We found out that just isn't true. People are still going to be making planes that have a very high aluminum content."

Indian River County notebook: St. Edward's girls soccer tries to build on 16-win finish
The St. Edward's girls soccer team has a little extra motivation driving it this season after a disappointing finish last year.
The Pirates went 10-1 against district opponents during the 2009-10 regular season to earn the top seed in their division but were ousted in the semifinals to finish 16-4-1.
The six returning players — goalkeeper Liz Sockol, defender Alex Pulido, midfielders Sarah Brown, Gabby Ordonez and Morgan Falkenhagen and forward Cory Deal — are on a mission, coach Jeff Lamscha said, for better results this year.
"They have been working really hard, and they haven't forgotten how disappointed we were at the end of last season," Lamscha said. "We are trying to make amends with that."
Though the Pirates are extremely young this season with just five seniors and a total of 11 freshmen and middle schoolers, Lamscha sees a good amount of skill in his team.
The key is getting everyone on the same page, Lamscha said. The overlap between the fall and winter sports seasons has taken a toll early on, but the Pirates won their season opener against Master's Academy, 6-0 on Tuesday.
"It's tough because of the overlap in seasons, but the nucleus has been out there since the beginning, and now we're getting the others back with other sports ending," Lamscha said. "We're just trying to get everyone caught up, so we have a long way to go, but I think we will be OK. We have a good balance of young players mixed in with the veterans we have back, and I think we will be a good team to watch."
The Vero Beach boys cross country team finished fourth at the District 2-4A meet last season, but the Fighting Indians are poised for a top-two finish Saturday when they head to the district meet in Palm Bay.
FLrunners.com predicts the Indians to finish second, 13 points behind favored Spruce Creek, which has four runners under 17 minutes. Vero Beach, led by Matt Salis and Dominic Patrick, are averaging a time of 16:54 this season at its best.
The Vero Beach girls team also appears headed for a strong finish, as FLrunners.com predicts it to finish second to Spruce Creek as well. Indians seniors Emily Ahrens and Grace Thomas lead the team with times under 18:30 and look for a one-two finish individually.
Sebastian River has its District 7-3A meet Saturday in St. Cloud, and St. Edward's will participate in the District 4-1A meet Thursday in Melbourne.
The Master's Academy boys basketball team had its first practice this week, as the school is bringing back the sport at the varsity level for the first time since playing a partial season in 2007-08.
The Patriots lost all three games their first year fielding varsity sports, but lack of interest led to the cancellation of the season in late December 2007. New athletic director Don Weston said earlier this year the school's growth has enabled him to bring back the program, which he will coach.
Weston's experience spans 16 years and includes three years of varsity play at Arizona Lutheran Academy, where he achieved All-Conference recognition and was the Class 1A state assists leader. His coaching background includes working with middle school, junior varsity and varsity teams from 1997 to 2005. In 2009 he was assistant coach for the Master's Academy Middle School boys' team.

Between 1983 and 2004 there were 29 inversion transactions out of the US. In the decade following, almost 50 companies restructured using the method. With foreign profits trapped offshore by an outdated, worldwide system which would hit them with a tax on repatriation, as well as a high tax rate, the temptation to consider an inversion is proving too much for US companies, particularly those in the highly-mobile pharmaceuticals sector. Whatever the motivation, inversions are in vogue. ITR's special report looks at the knock-on impacts of the current wave of inversions, including shareholder pressure to consider an option they see their rivals pursuing and the possible inflammation of the tax morality debate in the US. We also bring you exclusive insight as to why Danaher is not looking to invert.

Controversial Australian cricket umpire Darrell Hair is set to return to international cricket after being appointed to stand in the second Test between England and New Zealand which will be his first taste of international action since 2006. The 55-year-old was recalled to the elite panel of umpires last month after the International Cricket Council (ICC) decided to reinstate him. Hair was dumped from the panel following an abandoned match between England and Pakistan at The Oval in 2006, which ended with the tourists conceding the first Test forfeit in the game's history. His reinstatement after a "rehabilitation" course, has been heavily criticised by Pakistan. Former Pakistan captain Inzamam-ul-Haq - who led his team off the pitch in the test where Hair ruled against them - said he was "shocked and disgusted" by Hair's reinstatement. Hair - who has said he is prepared to officiate in test matches in Pakistan if called upon to do so - will stand with Simon Taufel in Manchester between May 23-27 and will also officiate in the third Test, with West Indian Steve Bucknor. Taufel and Bucknor will umpire in the first Test at Lord's, which starts on 15 May.

All the warmth of a Catalina Club kit with an enhanced and heavier presence.
Gretsch's Catalina Club Rock kit features mahogany shells and 30-degree bearing edges for a deep, warm, classic rock sound. This 5-piece configuration gets back to groove basics with big drums for big beats, while maintaining the clean style and smooth tones of the Catalina Club Jazz kit.
The 13" tom is affxed to a cymbal stand-mounted tom clamp/arm with Gretsch's ball-socket mechanism for efficient tom placement and stability. This tom also includes mini GTS tom suspension system to maximize tonal resonance. An oversized 26" kick drum lowers the boom and features wood hoops with matching inlays. The 8-ply mahogany shells feature an exterior basswood ply to provide a consistent overall finish. UV gloss lacquer is applied over deep ebony color via a multi-step finishing process to produce a glassy, reflective shine.
Crowned with a Catalina Club badge and Evans coated heads on the toms and snare, these drums are performance-ready straight out of the box.
