Is anybody else feeling guilty about their diet?
|Fri, 08-10-2012 - 12:19am
This is my second pregnancy, and i must admit on the first one I was a health diet freak.
Especially during the first 2 trimesters. Lots of veg and fruit, fish, everything home cooked, organic, plenty of juices and water.
this time round, I find my self being able to eat very little, due to MS that lasts 24 hours a day. And some of the things I eat are take aways (pasta for example), or I actually drink 1 glass of pepsi sometimes even 2 a day (some none).
I didn't use to eat like this last time I was pregnant, and i can't help but feeling that I'm doing harm to the little one...am I?
Is everybody else having sodas and things like that?

Before parting ways ten years ago, American Music Club forged a multihued, angst-induced sound. After reconvening earlier this year, the group articulates the disenfranchisement and alienation of the new millennium with the ironically titled Love Songs for Patriots. It's a series of confessional encounters, from the male stripper of "Patriot's Heart" who has sold his body and soul, to the narrator baring his hypocrisy in "America Loves the Minstrel Show." The pervading melancholia and the seemingly schizoid arrangements -- or, as "Mantovani The Mind Reader" suggests, "shotgun melody for a tympani sky" -- underscore this air of instability. So when "Only Love Can Set You Free" finds singer Mark Eitzel confessing, "I've been so lucky," the optimism seems fleeting indeed.

The present application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/964,668, filed on Sep. 27, 2001, now U.S. Pat. No. 6,693,557, issued on Feb. 17, 2004, which is incorporated herein by reference.
1. The Field of the Invention
The present invention relates generally to vehicular traffic monitoring systems, and more particularly relates to sensors for detecting the presence, location, speed, direction of travel, volume, and occupancy of vehicular traffic on a roadway.
2. The Relevant Technology
Controlled signalized intersections represent a key element in urban planning, public safety and traffic control. The science and engineering of traffic planning and control has long relied on the use of sensor devices designed for this specific purpose and, more recently, for the collection of traffic flow data. Some of these device technologies, such as those embedded in the roadways, have been employed for over sixty years and continue to require the same amount of attention in installation, calibration, maintenance, repair and replacement as they did decades ago. This laborious caretaking can be due to a number of factors ranging from inferior product design and poor installation to post installation disruption and migratory changes in traffic flow patterns. Reliability of these technologies is an issue to an overall traffic control plan and can prove extremely costly to maintain as an integral component to an overall traffic plan.
Traffic control devices that are embedded in roadways serve the interest of public safety, but in the event of a new installation, or maintenance/repair, they act as a public nuisance, as repair crews are required to constrict or close multiple lanes of traffic for several hours to reconfigure a device, or even worse, dig up the failed devices for replacement causing closure of the lane for several days or weeks.
While several sensor technologies are employed to assist in traffic planning and control, the oldest and most widely used technology currently employed in controlled intersections is the inductive loop. This loop is an in-pavement fixed location sensor, with the limitation of sensing only the traffic that is immediately over it. While such devices have continued history of use, failures of loops are common and at any one time as many as 20%–30% of all installed controlled intersection loops are non-responsive. Furthermore, the cost to repair these devices can be greater than the original installation cost.
As technology has developed over the decades, new sensory devices have been introduced to the traffic control industry. In recent years, there have emerged several non-intrusive technologies for traffic sensing that employ a remote sensor (i.e., not embedded in the roadway) as illustrated in
Another type of above-ground sensor includes acoustic sensors which operate as traffic sound-based listening devices. These devices employ an array of microphones built into the sensor allowing the device to detect traffic based on spatial processing changes in sound waves received at the sensor. After processing and analysis of the received sound waves, detection and traffic flow information is then assigned to the appropriate user-defined regions or lane being monitored forming a picture of the traffic.
When acoustic sensors are deployed, their microphone sensitivity is pre-set for normal operating conditions which include typical weather conditions. Again, the software and operating instructions to control an acoustic sensor require on-site attention to improve and upgrade the capability of the unit, or complete replacement to upgrade the sensor itself.
Other popular sensor types are based on microwave radar technology. Such sensors detect traffic based on the reflection of a transmitted electromagnetic signal depicted in
As identified above, many useful forms of technology exist to monitor and detect traffic. However, many forms of detection are obtrusively bulky, manufacturing intense, and all require on site maintenance and attention to re-configure the software, or operating instructions when traffic conditions, climate, or other operating conditions change. Without reconfiguration, the devices will continue to sense, but with reduced accuracy and in the worst case they may discard the actual flow pattern as peripheral noise. The cost to manufacture and reconfigure devices can be costly, and disruption to traffic is common.
A vehicle sensor for detecting and monitoring vehicular targets is presented. The sensor employs a planar design resulting in a reduced profile sensor and a greatly improved sensor for manufacturing. Improvements are a result of controlled manufacturing processes for forming controlled interconnects and structures on replicable circuit boards.
The sensor of the present invention includes a multi-layer radio frequency board having a first side which includes at least a majority of the RF components. On the opposing side of the board is a ground plane providing isolation to the RF components. Additionally, the opposing side also has printed thereon array transmit and receive antennas for radiating a signal toward a vehicular target and for receiving the signal as reflected from the vehicular target. The planar antennas provide a replicable antenna structure that is easily manufactured.
The sensor device further includes logic/control functionality which may be colocated or positioned separately on at least one logic or signal processing board that is preferably populated with components on a first side with a ground plane on a second side. The second or ground plane side is preferably positioned toward the RF componentry of the RF board to form an RF shield about the RF componentry. The boards are housed within a housing that is permeable to electromagnetic waves, at least on the side through which the antenna structures radiate. To provide additional RF absorption and isolation, an RF absorber is placed between the boards to provide additional isolation of RF emanations near to the source of generation.
These and other objects and features of the present invention will become more fully apparent from the following description and appended claims, or may be learned by the practice of the invention as set forth hereinafter.
To further clarify the above and other advantages and features of the present invention, a more particular description of the invention will be rendered by reference to specific embodiments thereof, which are illustrated, in the appended drawings. It is appreciated that these drawings depict only typical embodiments of the invention and are therefore not to be considered limiting of its scope. The invention will be described and explained with additional specificity and detail through the use of the accompanying drawings in which:
As the electromagnetic signals must propagate through front surface 506 as radiated from planar printed circuit board antennas described below, front surface 506 further includes geometries that facilitate reduced distortion of the antenna radiation pattern throughout the entire beamwidth of the antennas.
Sensor 500 further includes at least one controller/signal processing circuit board 530 having a first side 532 for disposing signal processing component 534 thereon and a second side having an electrically conductive ground layer 538. Electrically conducted ground layer 538 functions as an RF shield when it is oriented in parallel and facing multi-layer radio frequency circuit board 520 upon final assembly within housing 502. Ground layer 538 also functions as a ground plane for the controller/signal processing circuit board. Signal processing board 530 and radio frequency circuit board 520 interact via connectors 540 and 542, respectively.
Sensor 500 further comprises an absorber 550 located between multi-layer radio frequency circuit board 520 and signal processing board 530. Absorber 550 comes into proximity of both the electrically conductive ground layer 538 on board 530 and the first side 524 having RF components 522 thereon of radio frequency circuit board 520. In order to minimize the disturbance of the desired electromagnetic fields in the RF structures about and interconnecting RF components 522, channels or cutouts preferably extending only partially into absorber 550 are incorporated within absorber 550 that provide clearance around such RF components including transmission lines located on first side 524 of radio frequency circuit board 520.
In the present invention, since the coplanar series loop is not a resonant element, the size of the element can be readily adjusted. This size adjustment results in an alteration to the amount of radiation exhibited. Thus, tapered arrays can be designed by utilizing radiating elements with varying sizes. The coplanar waveguide series loop element is implemented using the following features: a conductor backed dielectric substrate 704, 702 (see
The use of a conductor backed dielectric substrate limits the radiation from the element to only one side of the element and also facilitates manufacturing as the element can be printed on a dielectric laminated with metal on both sides. The grounding vias 594 prevent the propagation of parallel plate modes that may exist when dielectric is laminated on both sides by metal. These parallel plate modes could cause coupling between radiating elements printed on the same substrate and could cause unpredictable antenna input impedances. The wide coplanar slots 595 help in several ways. First, wide coplanar slots increase radiation and increase tolerance to manufacturing variations. Second, circuit boards are often coated with solder mask and conformal coating to protect the board and components. These coatings, however, fill the coplanar slots and cause unpredictable phase shifts. The widening of the coplanar slots reduces this effect. By way of example and not limitation, slots 595 in the preferred embodiment assume a width of 60 mils. which provides the needed tolerance to manufacturing and coating variations but also maintains the necessary coplanar properties. The width of the center conductor of the coplanar waveguide is chosen to achieve the desired transmission line characteristic impedance.
The detail of
A tapered antenna array 596, 597 may be implemented through the use of varying element sizes. Series-fed arrays, such as this one in the present example, are used to replace corporate feed designs in which each element is fed by its own individual transmission line. The corporate feed approach requires an intricate feed structure that becomes more complicated when different antenna elements are used in the array or when a tapered feed is desired. Furthermore, corporate feed structures are prone to undesired radiation which results in antenna pattern distortion.
The exemplary loop dimensions given on
The lengths of transmission lines between the loops illustrated on array 596 are adjusted to facilitate every loop radiating in phase. As shown, these lengths are longer for smaller loops. These lengths are again determined from simulation. As illustrated in
In the present example, the antenna 580 is fed from a 50Ω transmission line that drives two 100Ω lines, which intersect at a tee. From the tee to the edges of the array, the transmission lines are 100Ω. Notice that the 50Ω transmission line feeding the antenna narrows for a section 598 and then returns to the standard width. This section 598 of the line is a quarter-wave matching section used to provide an impedance match to antenna 580. The ends of the array are terminated by short-circuited transmission lines. This termination causes a standing wave pattern throughout the antenna and causes the antenna as a whole to become a resonant structure. This has an advantage over a matched termination in that the antenna gain is higher since there are no losses in the termination. If a higher bandwidth antenna is needed, however, a matched termination, which would result in a traveling wave antenna, may be employed.
While the present embodiment depicts frequency generation using a DDS, it is also contemplated that other waveform generating devices, generally herein known as digitally generated modulated signal generators, including numerically controlled devices, may be employed for generating effective waveforms In the preferred embodiment, a modulated signal is generated digitally and is thus phase-locked to a digital clock. This modulated signal is then up-converted, if necessary, to the desired band.
Various embodiments for the digital generation are depicted in
Each of these embodiments comprises similar additional components and the preferred embodiment as illustrated in
The output of DDS 606 couples to a phase lock loop 608 which operates by comparing two input frequencies 612, 614 and generates a voltage 616 which controls a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) 610. Regarding phase lock loop 608, if the reference signal 612 is lower in frequency than the pre-scaler output 614, then the output voltage 616 of phase lock loop 608 becomes lowered. Conversely, if reference signal 612 is higher than pre-scaler output 614, then output voltage 616 of phase lock loop 608 is increased.
VCO 610 outputs a signal 618 whose frequency is determined by the input voltage 616. Those of skill in the art appreciate that the higher the input voltage of input 616, the higher the frequency of the RF signal output 618, and conversely, the lower input voltage 616, the lower the frequency of the RF output signal 618. In a "reverse" drive VCO a change in input voltage yield the opposite result just described. By way of example and not limitation, the VCO 610 of the present embodiment generates an output signal in the 5.25 GHz to 5.275 GHz range.
Transmit portion 602 is further comprised of a pre-scaler 620 which operates as a frequency divider by reducing the frequency of VCO 610 by a factor of, for example, 4. Before comparing the two signals, the PLL further divides the signal by a factor of 250 which results in a signal in the 10.5 MHz to 10.55 MHz range, which range is near the same frequency as reference signal 612 as output by DDS 606. Thus, output signals 612, from the direct digital synthesizer and pre-scaler output 614 become tracking signals for comparison by phase lock loop 608. In general, phase lock loop 608 adjusts input voltage 616 to VCO 610 until both inputs, reference signal 612 and pre-scaler output 614, are at the same frequency. As referenced signal 612 from DDS 606 increases in frequency, phase lock loop 608 drives VCO 610 in such a manner as to also increase the frequency. Thus, output signal 618 from VCO 610 results in the same signal as reference signal 612 other than signal 618 is scaled, in the present example, by a factor of 500.
Transmitter portion 602 further includes a Wilkinson divider 622 for dividing the RF signal 618 into two paths while maintaining isolation between the two outputs, output 624 and output 626. Those of skill in the art appreciate that Wilkinson divider 622 is a splitter in which each output path is reduced by half or 3dB from input signal 618.
Transmitter portion 602 further includes a doubler 628 for receiving signal 624 and generating a signal 630. Doubler 628 operates as a nonlinear device for effectively doubling the frequency from input signal 624 to output signal 630. In the present example, input signal 624 operates between 5.25 GHz and 5.275 GHz generating an output 630 ranging from 10.5 GHz to 10.55 GHz. Therefore, signal 630, in the present example, results in a multiplication of reference signal 612 by a factor of 1,000.
Transmitter portion 602 further includes an amplifier 632 for coupling with signal 630 and for generating signal 634. Amplifier 632 provides gain control of the signal for boosting the signal to a level sufficiently large for transmission. Amplifier 632 further couples to a Wilkinson divider 636 for partitioning a portion of the transmission power to the receiver portion through a signal 638 and Wilkinson divider 636 further generates an output 640 for passing to band pass filter 642. Those of skill in the art appreciate that that pass band filter 642 filters the output signal on the transmit portion to reduce transmissions outside of the desired frequency band. Transmit portion 602 further includes a transmit antenna 644 further described below for emanating the signals generated by the aforementioned circuitry.
Received portion 604 is comprised of various components for receiving reflected signals as emanated by transmit portion 602. Reflected signals are received by receive antenna 650 and processed by a bandpass filter 652 which reduces transmission outside of the desired frequency band. The receive filtered signal 654 is thereafter passed to amplifier 656 which generally is implemented as a low noise amplifier for boosting the received signal to a more useable level for processing.
Amplified signal 658 and signal 638 are received by mixer 660 which, in the present example, is implemented as a nonlinear device that effectively multiplies the two input signals to produce output signal 662. Those of skill in the art appreciate that mixers operate, for example, by receiving two sinusoidal signals which may be of different frequencies which results in an output signal having the characteristics of the sum of the two input sinusoidal signals, which trigonometrically results in a first frequency corresponding to the sum of the two input frequencies and a second frequency corresponding to the difference of the two input frequencies. This principle is illustrated by the trigonometric identity: sin α cos β=˝[sin(α−β)+sin(α+β)]
Thus, if one input signal is 10.5GHz and a second is 10.50001 GHz then the output signal from the mixer will be the sum of the sinusoids at 21.00001 GHz and another at 10 KHz for the present exemplary implementation, the resulting difference frequency signal is employed for evaluation of the signal characteristics.
It should be appreciated that the utilization of the difference frequency is a result of ranging capabilities of a linearly sweeping transmitted frequency. For example, the present embodiment utilizes a signal transmitted that is linearly frequency modulated (e.g. chirp). If the transmitted signal is reflected by a single point source target and is received by the radar and mixed with the same linearly modulated signal, the received signal, which has been delayed in time by the propagation duration to and from the target results in a frequency difference between the two inputs to the mixer since the transmitted signal exhibits a constantly increasing frequency during the phase of the period under evaluation. Therefore, the longer the propagation time to and from the target in question, the larger the frequency difference between the presently transmitted and the received signal. For example, in the present illustration, the linearly increasing frequency increases at a rate of 50 MHz in 1.25 milliseconds. Such a linear change in frequency results in a 40 GHz per second change in frequency. Therefore, if a target is located at a distance of 100 feet, the propagation time to and from the target is approximately 203 nanoseconds. In that length of time, the transmit frequency would have changed by 8.13 KHz.
Received portion 604 is further comprised of a low pass filter 664 which eliminates undesired RF signals from the mixer output, therefore resulting in audio frequencies being present at signal 666. Therefore, signal 666, which is the output of the low pass filter 664, is an audio frequency signal whose frequency corresponds to the range of the target and whose amplitude corresponds to the reflectiveness of the target.
Receiver portion 604 further includes audio filtering and amplification as illustrated in block 668. Such filtering and amplification conditions the signal prior to digitization to reduce any feed-through from the transmitting antenna directly coupling to the receiving antenna. Signal conditioning in the form of high pass filtering is employed since transmitter coupling appears in the received signal as a low frequency.
The following digital circuitry components may reside on a separate digital board. The output condition signal 670 is input to analog-to-digital conversion for 672, which converts the audio frequency signal to a digital signal for processing and analysis. The digitized output signal 674 is thereafter processed by detection algorithm 676, which performs spectral analysis on the digitized signal 674 and generates the desired traffic statistics for use in traffic analysis, control, and forecasting. Other processing within detection algorithm 676 include automatic and continuous background estimation, automatic and continuous lane allocation and automatic and continuous detection threshold determination.
The present invention may be embodied in other specific forms without departing from its spirit or essential characteristics. The described embodiments are to be considered in all respects only as illustrative and not restrictive. The scope of the invention is, therefore, indicated by the appended claims rather than by the foregoing description. All changes which come within the meaning and range of equivalency of the claims are to be embraced within their scope.

The Rev. Bryan Jessup is the new minister at the Humboldt Unitarian Universalist Fellowship in Bayside. He will deliver his first sermon at the 10:30 a.m. service on Sunday.
Jessup says his goal for the fellowship begins with "the tremendous resources and wisdom that the congregation already has." Building on this foundation, he added, "we know with everything we do why we're doing it and what it has to do with our story of faith -- or how we offer health and wholeness to the world."
A church, Jessup continued, has three main functions.
"Number one is to help individuals learn how to answer spiritual questions and transform their lives in an ongoing way toward compassion," he said. "It's the inner, spiritual transformation that equips people to live this life in a mindful and compassionate way."
The second function begins when these individuals come together. "You build this community of seekers who are mutually supportive around shared values, like love, justice, healing and respect," he added.
The final step, Jessup concluded, is to help the congregation transform the world, "to work toward healing, toward wholeness, so that the circle of those who are considered human and worthy -- the circle of those who are considered part of the web of life -- grows and grows."
Jessup was minister of the Unitarian Universalist Church of Fresno for the past 15 years.
"He turned me on to a New England way of thought, which is the Unitarian Universalist way of thought," Jessup said. "He introduced me to all of the Transcendentalists."
Graduating from Stanford University in 1969, Jessup earned teaching credentials at Fresno State University and taught school for 10 years. During this time he also became involved with a Unitarian Universalist congregation, and in 1980 he decided to become a UU minister, entering Starr King School for the Ministry in Berkeley.
After serving UU congregations in Delaware and Maine, Jessup returned to his homebase in Tulare County with his wife, Edie, a community organizer. Over the years the couple has often worked as a ministerial team on various issues, including homelessness.
At the nationwide UU General Assembly in Arizona last June, Jessup noticed a large, colorful postcard advertising for a minister in Humboldt County.
"It was described as 'a wonderful rural ministry with a vital congregation,' and I said, 'That sounds good to me,'" he said.
The Humboldt Unitarian Universalist Fellowship is located at 24 Fellowship Way off Jacoby Creek Road. For more information, call 822-3793 or visit www.huuf.org.

PowerShares Canada adds two ETFs to smart beta line
Related fund data links
PowerShares Canada has listed two new smart beta exchange-traded funds (ETFs) on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX).
Both have now closed the initial offerings of units and are available for trading on TSX.
"As an innovator in the Canadian ETF market, PowerShares Canada recognizes the value of smart beta investment strategies," says Michael Cooke, head of distribution, PowerShares Canada. "Our new additions provide investors with intelligent access to short-term fixed income investments."
PowerShares 1-3 Year Laddered Floating Rate Note Index ETF (PFL) seeks to replicate, before fees and expenses, the performance of the FTSE TMX Canada 1-3 Year Laddered Floating Rate Note Index. The index is designed to give investors exposure to a laddered basket of Canadian government and corporate investment-grade floating-rate notes. PFL has a management fee of 0.20 per cent.
PowerShares LadderRite US 0-5 Year Corporate Bond Index ETF (USB/USB.U) seeks to replicate, before fees and expenses, the performance of the NASDAQ LadderRite 0-5 Year USD Corporate Bond Index. The index is designed to give investors exposure to a laddered basket of US-dollar-denominated, investment-grade corporate bonds. USB has a management fee of 0.25 per cent. The ticker symbol "USB" represents Canadian-dollar-denominated units, while "USB.U" represents US-dollar-denominated units.
"The low interest rates paid on government bonds makes short-term US corporate debt and floating-rate notes quite attractive to investors seeking yield," Cooke says. "Both the laddering structure and the short duration of the underlying securities help reduce interest-rate sensitivity."

Jeff Branscome writes about Spotsylvania County schools. You can email him at email@example.com.
Second assistant superintendent is retiring
The Spotsylvania School Board Monday night accepted the retirement of Scott Worner, the assistant superintendent for administrative services. He will leave at the end of this school year.
Worner is the second assistant superintendent to choose retirement. Bill Flaherty, the assistant superintendent for technology services had requested retirement a few weeks ago.
Worner's position was being downgraded to an executive director position for the coming school year as part of Superintendent Shelley K. Redinger's streamlining plan, which cuts nearly $1 million from division personnel costs for fiscal 2013.

Our family stayed in Sea Otter for week this past August, and loved everything about the cottage, its comprehensive amenities, and fabulous location. You are (quite literally) just a stone's throw from the beach, and can BBQ and enjoy a glass of wine while watching the otters and sea lions enjoy the waters of Monastery Beach. We were impressed by the comprehensive kitchen amenities.

It's expensive and it would go bad before we would use it up!

It's so easy to make tartar sauce yourself with a little mayo - which of course is a staple here :) and tastes great when homemade so that when we want some I just whip it up. In its purest form it's simply mayo and pickles, but you can jazz it up to your liking too of course with pulverized onion, lemon juice, hot sauce, even capers - whatever you like. I usually don't. Make it ahead if you can to let the flavors mingle a little bit, but we usually make it up, and use it right away to be honest. Any fat will help make deviled eggs creamy - I don't usually add butter, just the mayo but not too much. I think that's the mistake a lot of people make - too much mayo & then you can't take it away - but butter. how can you go wrong with butter in there?!

I use Kraft Tartar sauce instead of regular mayonnaise. Add a little mustard and you've got deviled eggs. I used to use pickle relish and then tried the tartar sauce method. I've never looked back. I also discovered that if you want your eggs creamier, you need to add a little melted butter when you're mashing them firstname.lastname@example.com

Rep. Steven Horsford (Nevada)
Ruby Duncan is a living legend whose story has inspired countless activists not to give up hope and to continue fighting for justice. For years, she worked in and out of Nevada hotels, eventually organizing workers, leading protests and demanding fair pay and fair hours. Ruby's determination led her to be elected president of the Clark County Welfare Rights Organization and in 1971 led nationally publicized marches on the Strip protesting the purge of thousands of struggling Nevada families from programs that help the poor keep their heads above water. Ruby fought for what she believed in and is an inspiration to me and our community.

Land deal to increase airport's buffer area
A land swap between the Stafford Economic Development Authority and the Stafford Regional Airport Authority will create a greater buffer for the airport and give the EDA a piece of developable property along U.S. 1.
Discussions over the exchange of ownership have spanned several years, but they are now wrapping up, not long after a proposed development near the airport spawned discussions over the protection of the airport's future growth.
The Planning Commission recently recommended denial of an application termed Oakenwold, which would include up to 650 units and up to 250,000 square feet of commercial space on a 232-acre site southwest of the airport. One of the main sticking points for commissioners was the development's proximity to the airport.
The Board of Supervisors hasn't decided on the development.
With the swap, the airport will be receiving 104 acres on the northwestern edge of the airport property valued at $720,000.
"The 104-acre [property] would become part of the airport and help with the runway extension and also protect our approach zones," airport director Edward Wallis said in an email.
The airport had long planned to acquire the property from the EDA, which purchased the parcel about 20 years ago in order to protect the airport from development.
"We bought it with the intention of it being a buffer for the airport authority, as I understand it from the authority," Stafford Economic Development Director Tim Baroody said.
In exchange, the EDA will get a 14.75-acre property to the southeast of the southern edge of the airport property.
The parcel is near the Penny Industrial Park and the Crane's Corner Industrial Park on the eastern side of U.S. 1.
That property was appraised at $740,000. Baroody said that the EDA is looking at it for commercial or industrial use.
According to Wallis, the 14.75-acre parcel has about 1,000 feet of U.S. 1 frontage and would be much easier to sell than the 104 acres.
The airport will cover the legal fees, appraisal fees and the closing costs, while the EDA is responsible for paying for permits to timber the 104-acre land.
"We're willing to give them the higher-priced property," said Hank Scharpenberg, chairman of the airport authority.
The two parties are now waiting for the arrangement to be wrapped up as the EDA seeks permits for the timbering. The airport authority will take possession of the land after the timbering is complete.
Any proceeds that the EDA receives from the timbering and the subsequent sale of the nearly 15-acre property will go toward establishing a permanent Germanna Community College campus in Stafford.
"The EDA is not profiting from the sale," said EDA Chairman Joel Griffin.
Griffin added that exchange will promote workforce development and increase the flight path safety of the airport.

Asigra's Google Apps backup calms paranoid CIOs
Backup specialist Asigra has added support for Google Apps so it can provide detailed backup and recovery services for cloudy, risk-averse organizations. The upgrade was announced at the Asigra Summit in Toronto on Tuesday as a key component of Asigra Cloud Backup 12.2. We always thought the point of outsourcing services such …
Market forces at work
The Cloud has absolved itself of all responsibility, so market forces are stepping in to provide some measure of guarantee.
I dare say the abject failure of Azure was probably a wake-up call for those new companies. I just hope for their sake that they managed a proper risk evaluation, or else they are going down.
In any case, I can't help but feel that this is the true nature of the Cloud - pay to access your data, and pay again to recover it in case of trouble.
I wonder how many more paying steps will become involved in all this nebulous business before bean counters finally wake up and smell the coffee ?
Re: Market forces at work
It is simply the progression of expenditures. Any new trend or technology that comes along and frees up money will attract add on products/services that suck those dollars right back up, generally for something you had before but the new thing fails to provide. You can shift money around and do fancy tricks with the books but at the end of the day there are only so many ways to accomplish the goals of your particular business. There really aren't a lot of ways to actually save money and still meet operational goals if your business is already profiting at satisfactory margins.
Cloud to Server Backup
I'm suspicious of these cloud-to-cloud solutions. If something goes wrong with the network, you're out. There can also be juristictional problems if you ever need the data back.
We use the Syncdocs http://syncdocs.com app to backup our Google Apps customers to their own desktops or servers.
As for the market forces, cloud vendors are going to charge you just enough to make you move. Market forces mean they'd be bad businesspeople to charge a huge amount less.
"Backupify"... it may be just me, but that's a really painful name! Who comes up with these things?
I first read that as "backup-iffy". Hardly a confidence inspiring name.

Unblock Youporn-deutschSites other users are unblocking:
- unblock alexpix.com
- unblock extra-torrent.com
- unblock hentai4u.org
- unblock tubexnx.com
- unblock kickassto.come.in
Alternative unblocking methods
Our in-browser proxy technology is truly the most advanced of its kind, however there are inherent limits to what it can do. If you are unable to acccess youporn-deutsch.com using our unblocker above here are some alternative tricks you can try. Please note however that the methods below require that you have administrative privileges on your computer. If you are in a restricted environment you likely won't be able to follow them.
Method 1: Access youporn-deutsch.com directly by IP address (using hosts file)
On the Internet computers communicate with each other using numerical identifiers called IP addresses. Before your computer can talk to youporn-deutsch.com server it needs to obtain youporn-deutsch.com's IP address. A great deal of website blockers work by interfering with this process and misleading your computer about what youporn-deutsch.com's IP address is.
To bypass this type of blocking you can configure your computer to always use a predefined IP address when accessing youporn-deutsch.com. In order to do that, you need to edit the so called hosts file. On Windows it's "C:\WINDOWS\System32\drivers\etc\hosts". On Mac OS X it's "/etc/hosts". Open this file with a text editor (Notepad on Windows, TextEdit on Mac OS X) and append the following lines to it:
184.108.40.206 versaute-amateure.org 188.8.131.52 spaces.slimspots.com 126.96.36.199 deutsches-youporn.net 22.214.171.124 ajax.cloudflare.com 184.108.40.206 www.jugendschutzprogramm.de 18.104.22.168 www.w3.org 188.8.131.52 s18.sitemeter.com 22.214.171.124 www.maxxxhits.com 184.108.40.206 s1x.slimtrade.com 126.96.36.199 xsplasher.com 184.108.40.206 youporn-deutsch.com 18.104.22.168 www.shemaleexpert.com 126.96.36.199 slimtrade.com 188.8.131.52 privathuren.net 22.214.171.124 adspaces.ero-advertising.com 18.104.22.168 www.dvduncuts.com 188.8.131.52 sexkino.to 188.8.131.52 www.youporn-deutsch.com
(NOTE: Your computer usually needs to talk to several servers to display a modern web page. We have scanned youporn-deutsch.com and built the list of servers it uses which is why there's more than one line in the list above.)
Method 2: Use a VPN
VPN is the most efficient and robust block bypass method, but it might also take you more work to set up and may cost some amount of money. However if you often need to access the net from behind a blocker and care about your privacy and security it's well worth the effort and money.
If you are willing to invest a few dollars a month into a stable and secure VPN connection, check out our VPN partner ZenVPN

Middle East Q&A #5 - the Elders answer your questions
"What can I do as an ordinary citizen, as a person of goodwill, to help support peace in the Middle East?" Mary Robinson, Jimmy Carter and Lakhdar Brahimi answer your questions.
"What can I do as an ordinary citizen, as a person of goodwill, to help support peace in the Middle East?" Mary Robinson, Jimmy Carter and Lakhdar Brahimi answer your questions.
Jimmy Carter and Ela Bhatt answer your questions on promoting peace in the Middle East.
Just after returning from their recent trip to the Middle East, the Elders asked their supporters around the world to send in their questions about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Here, Jimmy Carter and Mary Robinson respond to some of your questions.
During their second visit to the Middle East in October 2010, the Elders travelled to East Jerusalem to see first-hand the extent of settlement expansion into Arab neighbourhoods.
Speaking at the the 2009 Parliament of the World's Religions, Jimmy Carter argues that the plight of abused women is made more acceptable by the mandated subservience of women by religious leaders.
In advance of the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen, the Elders enlisted their grandchildren to help convey the message that the world must act now to prevent climate catastrophe in the future.
On the second day of their visit, the Elders met Israeli President Shimon Peres in Jerusalem as well as Palestinian Prime Minister Salaam Fayyad in Ramallah. On their way to the West Bank, they stopped at the Qalandia checkpoint, where hundreds of Palestinians line up daily to cross into Israel under tight security. There they met Zaina who has made the crossing many times to go to school. Zaina joined other young Palestinians in conversation with the Elders later in the day to express their frustrations with the current situation and their hopes for peace.
Jimmy Carter discusses the impact of religion and tradition on the lives of women and girls.
Three members of The Elders visited Cyprus to lend their support to the leaders of the Greek Cypriot and Turkish Cypriot communities, and to commend Mr Demetris Christofias and Mr Mehmet Ali Talat for their efforts to reunify the island. The Elders urge the international community to embrace the fact that a lasting settlement is within reach, and to actively support the leaders and the peace process.
