In a transducer support assemblyhaving a connector for mounting said assembly to an actuator of a disk storage drive, and transducer means for reading or writing on a storage disk of said disk storage drive, including at least one transducer head with at least two air-bearing skis, an improved head arm loading arrangement, comprising:
a support arm;
first flexing means interconnecting said support arm and said connector;
second flexing means interconnecting said support arm and said transducer means;
said first flexing means providing movement of said arm relative to said connector in a first plane substantially perpendicular to said storage disk; said second flexing means providing movement of said transducer means relative to said arm in a second plane substantially perpendicular to said storage disk;
means for tilting said arm between a first, operative position and a second, inoperative position;
first restraining means defining said first operative position and limiting further movement of said arm towards said storage disk;
second restraining means providing for limited movement of said transducer means in said second plane for flying in operative proximity to said storage disk when said support arm is in said operative position.
2. An improved head arm loading arrangement as claimed in claim 1, wherein said second restraining means include:
a head lifter plate connected to said transducer means, and head lifter means connected to said support arm;
whereby said head lifter plate and said head lifter means engage while said support arm is not in operative position.
3. An improved head arm loading arrangement as claimed in claim 1, wherein said second restaining means further include:
a spring, connecting said transducer means and said support arm,
whereby said air-bearing skis of said transducer means generating a lift force on said transducer means against said spring for flying said transducer means in operative proximity to said storage disk when said support arm is in operative position.
It is a continuous effort of the computer industry to improve the storage capacity and the operating characteristics of storage facilities of digital computers. Various steps have been taken to increase storage capacity of rotating disk storages. Recording data at higher recording densities within the storage tracks, and reducing the track width and track spacing are two of the most often used approaches for improving storage capacities. However, changing the recording and track densities require modification of the transducer-disk interface. Furthermore, changing the track density requires additional modification of the actuator mechanism, which moves the transducer across the disk storage surface to the desired tracks. None of these methods allow to upgrade a disk storage in the field. In general the user has to exchange the storage facility in order to upgrade his system.
It is an object of the invention to provide means for increasing storage capacity of certain disk storages.
It is an object of this invention to provide means for upgrading storage facilities on site.
It is another object of this invention to simplify the control of transducer arm movement during head loading.
It is another object of this invention to provide for a new type of low-flying transducer head.
The present invention relates to digital storages, especially to disk storages using tranducer heads flying at close proximity to the storage surface on an airstream generated by the rotating storage disk. In order to have the transducer head fly at a distance of 50 microns or less above the surface of the storage disk the transducer core is attached to a body having a contoured face opposite the disk surface. The contour includes one or more polished operating surfaces with curvatures, known as airbearing skis. The flight of a transducer head, the combination of one or more transducer cores and a body, is controlled by the air pressure generated between the airbearing skis and the disk surface, and a counter force applied by the head arm through suitable means to the transducer head.
It is desirable to record data at high density in narrow tracks. However, recording density and track width are limited by the means used for recording and reproducing data. Furthermore, precautions have to be taken to prevent loss of stored data due to physical damage to the storage surface and/or the transducer head.
The present invention departs from the above standard methods of improving recording and track densities. The transducer head of the present invention carries two transducer cores separated by a square body with airbearing skis in tangential direction to the movement of the accessed storage track relative to the transducer head. Each one of the magnetic cores has a gap for recording and sensing data on an accessed storage track. The transducer cores are mounted on the sides of the body parallel and adjacent to the airbearing skis in such a way that the airbearing skis of the core separating body and the operating surfaces of the attached cores form a combined operating surface. The width of the gaps are determined by the width of the core slices at the surface opposing the disk storage surface. A new method of edgelapping is used to reduce the width of the core slices at the operating surface to a value producing a track width of desired value.
The width of the core separating body is a multiple of the track spacing minus the width of one transducer core gap. In every position of the head arm is controlled by the actuator, data can be recorded or sensed selectively in two tracks. Therefore the storage capacity of a storage disk can be doubled by replacing the regular single track access head arm by a dual track access head arm of the present invention. The actuator and its control do not have to be changed. Selection between the two accessed tracks is done electronically by selecting the proper one of the two transducer cores.
The transducer head is mounted in a flexure giving elastic movement in a direction substantially perpendicular to the surface of the disk storage, and around two axes to adapt to the contour of the storage surface. The flexure is connected by a head arm to an actuator, which moves the transducer head across the disk surface to access desired storage tracks. A loading ramp is provided for lifting the transducer head from close proximity to the storage surface to a safe distance from the storage surface when moving the transducer head away from the storage disk.
During operation the transducer head is springloaded in the direction towards the storage surface. The total movement of the transducer head perpendicular to the storage surface is limited by a head lifter arrangement. By reducing the springload and the lift by the airbearing skis potential damage to the storage disk in case of a head landing is significantly reduced.
FIG. 1a is a side view of a transducer head arm of the present invention in loaded position.
FIG. 1b is a sectional view of another transducer head arm of the present invention having a different type of linkage.
FIG. 2 is a side view of the transducer head arm of FIG. 1a in unloaded position.
FIG. 3 is a detailed illustration of the head-head arm interface.
FIG. 4 is an illustration of a cross-section of the head-head arm interface.
FIG. 5a is an illustration of a dual core transducer head.
FIG. 5b is a side view of a dual core transducer head.
FIGS. 6a, 6b, 6c are cross-sections of different types of head arms.
FIG. 1a is a side view of the transducer head arm assembly of the present invention. The assembly includes the transducer head 1, flexure 2, head arm 3, head lifters 4a and 4b, spring 5, linkage 6, and T-Block connector 7. The far end 8 of T-Block connector 7 is of a type and shape which allows the connection of the assembly to a T-Block of a desired type. The flat end 9 of T-Block connector 7 carries linkage 6, a flat rectangular piece of elastic material. Head arm 3 is connected to linkage 6 by two screws at location 10. Head arm 3 reaches with tongue 11 under flat end 9 of T-Block connector 7. This arrangement allows to lift head arm 3 in a direction as indicated by arrow 12 by bending linkage 6. Any movement of head arm 3 from its straight position as shown in FIG. 1a against arrow 12 is inhibited. This straight position is the operative position of head arm 3 for recording and sensing data in a track of storage disk 13. The lifted position of head arm 3 in the direction of arrow 12 is the unloaded, inoperative position, see FIG. 2.
FIG. 1b is a schematic illustration of a different linkage between T-Block connector 7a and head arm 3a. Head arm 3a and T-Block connector 7a are connected by linkage 6a, which is made of an elastic material of suitable strength. Movement of head arm 3a against a direction of arrow 12a is inhibited by stop lever 14a, which is affixed to T-Block connector 7a. In the loaded, operative position head arm 3a is supported by stop lever 14a at position 15a.
FIG. 3 is a more detailed illustration of the head-head arm interface. FIG. 4 is an illustration of a cross-section of the assembly at location A-A. Transducer head 1 is affixed to flexure 2, which in turn is connected to head arm 3 by screw 14. A spring 15 loads transducer head 1 towards storage disk 13, which is shown in FIG. 4. Travel of transducer head 1 relative to head arm 3 is limited by head lifters 4a and 4b and plate 16, which is attached to transducer head 1. As long as transducer head 1 is not sufficiently close to the surface of storage disk 13 for flying at close proximity, transducer head 1 will rest with plate 16 on head lifters 4a and 4b. As soon as during the head loading operation transducer head 1 gets into operative proximity to the surface of storage disk 13, the air pressure developing under airbearing skis 44 and 45 (FIG. 5) will lift transducer head 1 off the head lifters 4a and 4b, at which time transducer head 1 starts flying at a desired distance above the surface of storage disk 13.
The unloaded position of the head arm assembly of FIG. 1 is shown on FIG. 2. Head arm 3 is loaded and unloaded by relative movement between loading pin 23 and head arm 3. During such a relative movement pin 23 will ride on ramp 23a and allow head arm 3 to change from unloaded position to loaded position and vice versa while pin 23 rides on ramp section 23b. Loading and unloading head arm 3 has to happen while head 1 is still above the surface of storage disk 13.
FIG. 5a is an illustration of transducer head 1. Transducer head 1 is assembled from an AL-Ceramic body slider 31 and two transducer core slices 32 and 33. Body slider 31 includes airbearing skis 44 and 45 with operating surfaces 48 and 49. The operating surfaces 46 and 47 of core slices 32 and 33 extend the operating surfaces 48 and 49 of air-bearing skis 44 and 45 to a size sufficient to provide the necessary lift for flying the transducer head 1 at a desired distance above the surface of storage disk 13 against the loading force exercised by spring 5 on transducer head 1.
Core slices 32 and 33 include openings 50 and 51 providing space for the sense and record coils, of which coil 60 is indicated in FIG. 5b.
Prior to the attachment of core slices 32 and 33 the width 40 of body slider 31 is machined to the desired value. After placing core slices 32 and 33 left and right of slider body 31 an adhesive of an epoxy type is injected in grooves 34 and 35, whereby core slices 32 and 33 are permanently attached to body slider 31.
FIGS. 6a, 6b, and 6c are cross-sections of different head arms, which can be used as head arm 3 in FIG. 1. FIG. 6 is a first embodiment of a head arm. The flat main section 51 and the side walls 52 and 53 provide the essential stiffness against deformation when the arm is unloaded under the preload of linkage 6. A channel 54 is provided in side wall 53 to carry signal wires 55 of transducer head 1. The unshaded area 56 is the area of loading ramp 23b. The flat end 9 of T-Block connector 7 and linkage 6 are placed inside the extrusion between side walls 52 and 53.
FIG. 6b is another embodiment of a head arm. The head arm of which a cross-section is shown in FIG. 6b has a dovetail like channel 64 on the inside of side walls 62 and 63. Either channel can be used to carry signal wires 55.
FIG. 6c is a third embodiment of a head arm which can be used in place of head arm 3 of FIG. 1. The side walls 66 and 67 are formed by bending the outer edges of the head arm to U-shaped channels. Either one of the channels in side walls 66 and 67 can be used to carry the signal wires 55 of transducer head 1.
The signal wires placed in the channels provided in side walls 52 and 53, 62 and 63, 66 and 67, respectively, of the head arms shown in FIGS. 6a, 6b, and 6c can be held in place by application of adhesive means, or by crimping the opening of the channel in one or more places along the channel.
While there have been shown and described and pointed out the fundamental novel features of the invention with reference to the preferred embodiments, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in the form and details of the arrangements illustrated and its manufacturing steps may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of this invention.

text: I've found something better I was dx RRMS 1/04 and seem to have a very serious form of this disease. I've spent most of this year in a w/c or re-learning how to walk and stand. Incontinence was an issue from the start. I was told to take 10 mg 2x's a day and it still wasn't working. This med worked good for a few weeks the first time I tried it. I also tried Detrol. Same thing, worked for a bit and then nothing. I was on Detrol LA, Ditropan and Ditropan XL so far. Now I use L-Arginine. An amino acid that people with MS seem to lack. IT WORKS GREAT!!! Incontinence and urges are virtually eliminated after one week of use! I strongly recommend it but you have to eat with it for some reason or it doesn't seem to work.

Shout to the Lord
|This article does not cite any references or sources. (August 2013)
"Shout to the Lord" is a worship anthem, written by singer/songwriter Darlene Zschech in 1993, published by Hillsong Music Australia.
It has also been covered by Don Moen, Rich Mullins, Matt Redman, Chris Tomlin, Michael W. Smith, Lincoln Brewster, John Tesh, Sandi Patty.
On 9 April 2008, "Shout to the Lord" was the closing song on Idol Gives Back, sung by the remaining eight contestants of American Idol and a gospel choir. The lyrics of the song were altered, changing the word "Jesus" to "Shepherd" in the first line,[1] without the approval of Zschech or Hillsong Church.[2] At the request of the song's publishers, the song was performed again at the opening of the next show the following night, this time using the original lyrics.[1] The studio version of the performance charted at number 43 in the Billboard Hot 100, based on digital download sales alone.
In 1998, the Brazilian band Diante do Trono, re-recorded "Shout to the Lord" twice in Portuguese as "Aclame ao Senhor".
Shout to the Lord appears on the following albums:
- Rivers of Joy, by Don Moen (1995)
- Authentic, by Chris Tomlin (1998) (Track 10)
- En Tu Presencia con Don Moen, by Don Moen (Track 10: Canta al Señor) (1999)

The fun-sized candy calls eat me, eat me, eat me to Josey Brackenburg. No, she resists, but an hour later Josey heaves herself behind the steering wheel trailing empty wrappers like breadcrumbs. Gotta start line-drying my jeans, she thinks. Stupid dryer's shrinking them.
In her grocery cart she chases apples with caramels, adds popsicles for their sticks, and stacks cases of soda underneath—no diet-death chemicals allowed in her house, thank you very much. Rounding the bakery, pumpkin chocolate-chip cookies leap off the shelves, perfect for midnight snacking. Not until Piggly-Wiggly's checkout does she remember. Halloween. She needs more candy.
With twenty bags jammed in the trunk, Josey hitches herself back into the driver's seat, popping the button on her jeans. Cruising past the drive-thru, she scans the line stretching around the block and reluctantly parks. No time to wait. Waddling in, she super-sizes her biggie fries. Hot grease and salt sizzle as she drags them through her peanut-butter malt.
Catching her eye, Annie hefts her triple burger. "It's perfectly normal to gain a few pounds before winter," Annie laughs. "We'll diet later!"
Josey pats her swelling muffin top. "Carrots sticks and rice crackers in January," she grins. "But through the holidays let's all get fat and happy!"
In space Zargog adjusts a dial. "You're right, Captain. The mountain species are more susceptible than the coastal varieties. Scans also show fewer contaminates."
"Excellent. Inform Chef the calorie ray is optimized. Harvest Fest will commence as scheduled."
Zargog smacks his lips.
Heart of Annihilation by C.R. Asay is an electrifying military black ops thriller with a sci-fi twist that challenges ideas of nature vs. nature and cold war politics.
It's a little complicated, so bear with me. U.S. Army Specialist Kris Rose has her own hidden agenda when she's plunged into a military secret. She discovers that our world is home to several societies living in different dimensions with different technologies and philosophies. The most advanced is 13 and it's been known not to play well with others. Someone in number 12 has developed a weapon—the Heart of Annihilation—that has the potential to take care of number 13's proclivity to end other dimensions.
12's a mannered, pacifist society, so there's some (ahem) disagreement between factions about whether or the Heart of Annihilation is a good thing. Most of the time, 12's solution to conflict is a quick serenity break. For those who can't chillax, 12 relocates them to a penal colony more their speed—our everyday world. Medium bad guys keep their memories. Really bad ones gets the ultimate reboot with their memories wiped and are regressed back to infants. They aren't human, but can usually pass.
Did I mention the Heart of Annihilation is lost?
You can see where all of this is heading.
C.R. Asay's own military experience shines as so many of the details from wounds to the interior of a C-130 to tactical mind-sets are spot on. Lovers of stories within stories will find much to enjoy here along with a lot of shoot-'em-up-cloak-and-dagger action. As fun as the guns and camaraderie are, it's really a story that explores the nature of evil and questions how much a person can be nurtured away from destiny.
With such big concepts and worlds to explore, Heart of Annihilation is the first in a series. Looking forward to the next book!
Heart of Annihilation by C.R. Assay is published by Wido Publishing and is available in trade paperback and eBook from Amazon and Barnes & Noble

I am sitting in a cafe in the middle of an ancient bull fighter's arena in Barcelona, Spain, that rivals any modern mall I've seen. There's a cup of hot chocolate the consistency of a melted Hershey bar next to me. My two years of high school Spanish is just enough for shopkeepers to smile indulgently and speak to me in their perfect English. It should embarrass me, but I'm relieved.
A woman with a 5 month old named Gabe is meeting me. Teething and totally off his schedule, Gabe is the mellowest kid I've ever seen, but there are some inescapable realities of traveling with an infant we're dealing with.
Gabe is a chick magnet.
Or maybe just a person magnet because it's not just abuelitos or senoritas that make google eyes at him. On the metro Gabe had hard-core punk rockers–tattoos, shaved mohawks, and piercings–vying to make him smile.
Good thing he's a soft touch with an easy toothless grin.
There's something about a baby that reminds us we're all human. With Gabe around, everyone is a little softer, kinder. Gabe is soaking it all in through his big baby eyes and mostly going with the flow.
Some day his parents will show him his passport photo and tell him all about his trip to Spain. He won't remember a thing. But maybe, just maybe when he's long out of diapers and binkies there will be a sound, a scent, a flash of light on a curved wall and for a brief moment Gabe will remember the Barcelona sun and the pattern of leaves against the sky on the Las Rambas walkway as it arced above his stroller canopy.
Or at least wonder why the sound of a train always puts him to sleep.
Eyes of Persuasion by Adrienne Monson is an afternoon's escape into a world of dressing for dinner, marriage as high finance, and a lady who intends to stay that way despite her uncle's gambling debts. It's a romp through polite English high society that isn't afraid to take a side trip down the steamier side of the docks.
Lady Isabeau Maybrick's got a deeper secret than playing detective or dress-up—a paranormal superpower that would put her life in jeopardy if anyone knew about it. She's a modern thinking woman in a repressive historical past, so it's no surprise that the unconventional Everette Radcliff turns her world upside-down.
Eyes of Persuasion is the kind of book that's best read with a hot beverage and a plate of cookies. It's an easy, entertaining read that will leave you wanting more. Readers who like historical romances are sure to enjoy the paranormal twist on an (almost) bodice ripper plot.
Eyes of Persuasion by Adrienne Monson available as an eBook or trade paperback from Amazon.

Knowing when I was going to get mail used to be a simple thing. Never on Sundays. Around 11:20 am Monday through Friday and around noon on Saturday. There was no reason to keep checking the mailbox—one delivery a day brought all I was going to get until the next time the mailman made her rounds.
Yeah, our mailman was a lady, but we still called her the mailman. When I was little I thought the word was mail ma'am. I also thought the song Cherish You was all about cherry shoes, but that's another blog post.
Growing up in Hawaii, I could predict when I might get a card or letter from my mainland family. Christmas and birthdays were a sure thing. Presidents' Day, Groundhogs Day, Flag Day—not so much. I'd haunt the mailbox the week before an anticipated arrival but ignore it the rest of the time. A kid can only get so excited about Hawaiian Electric bills, Longs ads, and mail addressed to Resident.
But with email, you just never know. Any second somebody could be sending that all important message, the one you didn't know you were waiting for until it arrived. I find myself reaching for my smartphone and checking my inbox way too often in meetings, watching tv, at kids' soccer games—even church. I'm starting to feel like Linus with his blankie.
I'm not ADD. I can choose when I'm going to pay attention and can sustain that attention for a scarily long time when I'm engaged. My problem is low boredom threshold.
It's easier to let people think I'm ADD.
The Brothers Washburn are Berk and Andy Washburn, two talented brothers from a sprawling family who re-imagine their days growing up in Trona near Death Valley with a certain twisted genius. Pitch Green, Book One in the Dimensions in Death series introduced us to Camm and Cal who with the help of the FBI reveal some of the noxious secrets hiding in Trona. Just in time for Halloween, Mojave Green, Book Two is ready to sweep readers back to the desert for more suspense, horror, and thrills.
The Brothers Washburn stopped by to chat about their experiences.
Pitch Green and Mojave Green are the first two books in The Dimensions in Death young adult horror series. Based on a scary story we used to tell as kids to our siblings and friends, these books combine horror, suspense and mystery, moving at a breathtaking pace as our protagonists fight for their lives while they battle a monstrous evil presence hiding in and around an old, deserted mansion in a small mining town, located near Death Valley in a desolate part of the Mojave Desert.
The mansion was built almost a hundred years ago by an eccentric genius, who got funding and structural specifications from a clandestine source of ancient wealth and knowledge. One night the genius was mysteriously slaughtered, and ever since, children and other defenseless animals in the Trona area have been disappearing without a trace on a regular basis. In the first book, Pitch Green, we meet two teenagers, Camm and Cal, who are destined by wit, pluck and luck (not always good) to become the balancing force against the unearthly predator, who came to call the mansion home. Our heroes are hurled from one scene of horror to the next. Though their intentions are good, they don't understand what they're facing, and by the end of the first book, a door has been left open to predations on an even grander scale.
When we were writing that first book, we thought that writing the novel with the best story we could tell was the hardest part of the business. But, when we started looking for a literary agent or publisher, we were surprised to discover the getting a novel published is in many ways more difficult than writing it. Surely getting your book published was the hardest part. But, when we started marketing our book, we were surprised to discover that building a fan base was the most difficult part of the business. We're still building a fan base and that's still difficult, but we understand now, there may still be more surprises down the road.
In the second book, Mojave Green, a call from her best friend, Cal, brings news Camm had hoped never to hear. Children are again disappearing from Trona. Has the unnatural creature they killed last year returned to life or has the ancient Searles Mansion spawned a new menace? Ignoring dire warnings from federal agents, the pair take a road trip home with unsuspecting school friends in tow and discover the situation has gotten worse. With giant predators seemingly coming out of nowhere, enigmatic forces tear the friends apart, pulling Cal into another world, where his chances of survival are slim. Finally coming to terms with her feelings for Cal, Camm desperately seeks help where she can, even from the dead, but can a rogue agent and other peculiar misfits help her uncover the long-lost secrets that she needs to rescue Cal and stop the inter-dimensional attacks? The destiny of her own world may lie in Camm's young hands.
In the second book, the desert around Trona is the setting where much of the story takes place. And, the desolate desert environment is a perfect stage for this kind of story. While the events are limited only by our imaginations, the location of each event is firmly anchored in the reality of what is Trona and the desert around it. All the landmarks described in the book actually exist and their descriptions add to the bleakness of the story. A desolate landscape works well as a backdrop for giant, marauding, alien predators.
In the third book, Green Death, both Camm and Cal are tested to their limits. Cal is whisked back to the alternate world by federal agents to find his friend Lenny and to help implement a process to control the random transition of life forms between the two worlds. Cal will ultimately have to face the deadly, giant Mojave Green before his work is through. Camm will have her own demons to fight and cannot avoid a show down with the undead, ravenous green rat that is determined to eat her alive. And behind it all, the gargantuan mansion still stands in its eerie, creepy splendor, a mausoleum of yet undiscovered ancient secrets. As everything comes to a climax, who will be left alive? Who will be left behind? And what will be the destiny of our own world?
Can't wait. Thanks for stopping by, Berk and Andy. Mojave Green is published by Jolly Fish Press and is available as a trade paperback and eBook from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and other fine book retailers.

My sixty year old neighbor at the end of the cul-de-sac phoned late this afternoon. We live in an area with only six homes over about 30 country acres, so it's not your typical suburban cul-de-sac. Two of her horses were loose and she'd been chasing them for hours from property to property. She was calling me to see if anybody was home—besides me, since she knows I'm crap at horses—who could hop on one of our horses to help her wrangle hers home. Last seen her horses were munching on grass in a field near my house and she was worried they might get out on the busier road.
I felt terrible when I had to tell that none of our horses were at the house. They were all having a last summer hurrah at what I thought of as Pony Heaven—a wooded 100 acre parcel a few miles away filled with meadows, hills, and a running stream. In a few weeks they'd be back to their boring corrals at our house, stuck there through the long, cold winter. But for now all the summer parades and horse shows were over, and they were living the horsey high life.
She was tired, angry, and thoroughly over her rotten horses. Of course, her husband was out of town. Another ten minutes of chasing them, and I think she would've gotten a gun. She knows I'm not a horse person, so any of my suggestions—grain buckets, more help corralling them—was given a sniff of derision and a snapped, "I've already tried." Frustrated that I didn't have the solution she wanted, she hung up.
My husband had heard enough of my side of the conversation to know horses were loose and was already putting on his shoes. "I'll come," I said.
"You don't have to. I got this."
"She says they're really naughty."
"It's okay."
I grabbed my shoes, too. "How about I just go spot them for you?"
I went out the front, down the road, and over to the field she'd last seen them. There they were, bold as brass, nibbling on the far side on top of a hill. When they spotted me watching them, they squealed and ducked behind the hill.
Yeah, they know they're being bad.
A few minutes later my husband walked up the road carrying a couple of halters and a bucket of grain he'd snagged from our horse trailer.
"You've seen them?"
"Just over the hill. Want me to come?" I asked.
"Nah. Just stay here in case they make a break for it and head to the road."
Off he went.
When he got close, the horses started to run, so he stopped, looked away from them, and stood shaking the bucket, the halters held out of sight behind his back. The horses moved away from him and started eating again. Working an angle, he moved closer to them, still holding and shaking the bucket. When the first horse turned to look at him, he immediately turned his back to them and moved away, walking toward their house. The horses looked at each other and started walking quickly toward him. When they got close enough to nudge him, he turned and showed them the bucket, then kept walking away. They hurried to keep up with him and nudged him again. He stepped sideways and let them have a taste of the grain in his bucket. Then he walked away. They chased. He stopped and gave them more grain, this time slipping a lead through their headstalls. Caught, they meekly followed him back to their corral.
It took all of five minutes.
Later when I asked him about it, he said horses are a lot like people. They like to think they are getting away with something they shouldn't. They like to think they are in charge. Chasing them only makes them think they are winning. You have to walk up with something they love and then deny it to them. You're the boss and they have to recognize it. They have to decide they want what you're offering more than freedom. You have to be the one that fulfills their desires. You make them come to you. You start with a bucket of grain, but you act like it's all yours. They want it. You give them a taste and ignore the dangling ropes and halters for the moment because if you grab at them too soon, they'll sense a trap and bolt. You make them love you. And once they do, you slip the halter or rope around them and they forget they're much bigger and stronger. They'll go exactly where you want them and will do what you ask of them.
My horse whisperer of a husband thinks horses are just like people. Boggles the mind when you think it through, doesn't it? Politics. Religion. Peer pressure. Professional organizations. There's something to this.
What's your bucket of grain, who's holding it, and what freedoms are you giving up to eat it?
Teri Harman's Black Moon, book two of the Moonlight Trilogy, continues the story of Willa and Simon, young adults taking those first steps into a grown-up world of magic, witches, soul mates, trials, and too many talents. It's a fast-paced and engrossing read that expresses all the confusion of perfect love that isn't perfect, leaving home to share one's life with another, completing magic trials to prove one's worth, and, oh, saving the world.
I won't mention the guilt Simon oozes because of the deaths in Blood Moon (book one) or Willa's anguish in wanting to save someone who won't let her in. I won't say a thing about the balance of light covens and dark covens and how truly twisted the dark can be when it seeks to control the powers of the earth on the night of the black moon. And I can't tell you about the whole terrifying plot around being extraordinarily gifted magically and the suspicion and doubt having too much talent can cause. I can't tell you any of these things because that would Ruin the Story.
And this is one you'll want to read for yourself.
Black Moon by Teri Harman is a New Adult paranormal thriller with a romance twist sure to delight readers 16 and older. Published by Jolly Fish Press, it's available in trade paperback and eBook from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and other purveyors of fine books.

Tonight near midnight I had a nagging urge to check the horses, one of those niggling feelings along the back of my neck that wouldn't let go. I called the dogs from my daughter's room, slipped on my flip flops, grabbed a flashlight, and headed out the door. There was no moon, but it was light enough to see the way to the corral. Brownie came to the rail to greet me with a nicker and a slight cough I'll check in the morning. All seemed well, so after a few pats and a double-check on the water, I headed back to the house. That's when I heard it–the long, low cry of the wolf pack. Not close, in the hills a few miles away, I think, but it's been a couple of years since I'd last heard them call. Wildlife officials say there are no wolves in these parts, but they are mostly nine to fivers. You have to be a night owl to run with the wolf pack. Keeping the dogs in tonight.

I've been living car-free for a few years, but I'd like to get out and ride further away from where I live and I'm starting to get tired of bumming rides with friends. I've been looking to get an SUV with decent headroom and not spend much $. I'd pretty much use it only for road trips and occasional grocery jaunts. I've noticed that 10 year-old land rovers are ridiculously cheap, under $5k. something tells me to stay the @¢k away from them, but another part of me is intrigued. What are the reasons not to buy one?

Paul Rolls Promoted To Executive Vice President Of Worldwide Sales And Marketing For ON Semiconductor
ON Semiconductor (Nasdaq: ONNN) has named Paul Rolls Executive Vice President (EVP) of Worldwide Sales and Marketing to replace his retiring predecessor.
"ON Semiconductor takes great pride in its best-in-class sales, marketing and service organization, which is focused on design-win driven success and collaborative customer relationships," said Keith Jackson, president and chief executive officer (CEO), ON Semiconductor Corporation. "Paul is a proven leader with extensive experience in the semiconductor industry. He brings a valuable combination of sales and business insight to his new role, and is well-equipped to help us grow our business at a rate that outpaces the market."
In his new position, Mr. Rolls will lead the company's sales, channel sales, corporate marketing, pricing and customer service organization. Backed by a portfolio of more than 44,000 products and leading-edge systems solutions, the company expects he and his teams to aggressively grow the business and expand market share. The company is also looking to Mr. Rolls to increase the total value proposition of ON Semiconductor by leveraging the technical expertise of the company's Solutions Engineering Centers (SECs) and field application engineering (FAE) teams, and capitalizing on the company's progressive supply chain programs.
"I am proud to be part of a nearly $3 billion global enterprise that has established itself as a significant player within the industry and a recognized leader in energy efficient solutions," said Mr. Rolls. "The plan is to drive sales and design-win momentum upward by continuing to foster a cooperative, design-savvy environment in which the development of new and inventive electronics by our customers can flourish. Our customers' success is, after all, our success. Being a member of the team with the stated goal of taking the company from its well-won status as a top global semiconductor supplier to a top 10 industry leader is going to be an exciting endeavor."

Ice Hockey Raises $21,000 in Third Annual Military Appreciation Night
In its third annual Military Appreciation Night, the Lebanon Valley College ice hockey team collected $21,000 in support of the Wounded Warrior Project.
The event took place during a home game against the U.S. Naval Academy at Hersheypark Arena Friday, Oct. 26.
"Our team had a great amount of success with this game," said defenseman Tyler Skroski '14. "Everything around the game seemed to blow up from the start of everything. We were able to sell out of all our t-shirts for the first time, and we were able to raise $21,000 for the people who put everything on the line to serve our country. It is a great feeling knowing that we are able to help them with this game."
Skroski and goalie Matthew Turner '13 have been instrumental in organizing the event throughout its three years, and this season they have worked to involve some of the team's underclassmen for continued success in the future.
Money was raised through donations accepted at the Wounded Warrior Project website and collected at the gate, t-shirt sales prior to and during Military Appreciation Night, silent auctions for items donated by the College and local businesses, and the team's annual jersey auction.
The team got an early start on its collection this year when the Navy Club of Lebanon - Ship No. 91 committed to make a $5,000 donation. That donation was raised to $5,200 by game day and was presented during pregame festivities by George Gilbert Sr., junior executive officer of the Navy Club Ship 91. Gilbert served 20 years in both the Marine Corps during the Vietnam era and the Army Reserves in Operation Desert Storm.
Pregame also included a performance of Taps by Nick Harman '15, a music recording technology major and the singing of the national anthem by 10-year-old Piper Weldon from State College, Pa. The color guard was presented by the 28th Combat Aviation Brigade, 28th Infantry Division from Ft. Indiantown Gap.
On the ice, the game went to overtime and the Dutchmen emerged with a 3-2 win on a top-shelf goal by Wes Landsem '13, who ended the night with two goals. Skroski finished with a goal and an assist, and Cole Bell '13 recorded assists on all three goals.
"Winning the game was also great, especially since Navy is a nationally ranked team and a league rival of ours," Skroski said. "I give them all of my respect from their coaching staff down to each and every player, and I'm glad that they are a part of the game each year. All in all, I don't know if anything with the game could have gone better. Winning a league game like that and raising that amount of money is nothing to hang your head about."

Agreed, it lacked the spark and character of Majora's Mask and The Wind Waker, but the combat system is the best in the series and the dungeon design was fantastic, and the bosses, while some of them not that much fun to fight, where always a spectacle. Definitely a very well made game, just very traditional. Oh and the Ball & Chain was very badass.
No shitting on Twilight Princess, it's a great game. At least on Gamecube.
But yeah, fuck that Wii version, it doesn't even have that hilarious jump slash glitch.
Nah not really, everyone shits on everything after A Link to the Past, Link's Awakening, and to a lesser extent Ocarina of Time by a fair amount of people for a good amount of reasons, for reasons reasonable and not-so reasonable. But yeah the wolf sections were pretty throw away, gladly they were sparse and getting around/controlling as the wolf was quick. Even Aonuma said he put the Wolf in because he was sort of forced into making another Link to the Past-y game like Ocarina, but also needed an original gimmick or whatever so yeah he didn't know what to do and yeah. It was an overall solid game plagued by general Zelda fatigue and lack of identity.
Twilight Princess was.....ok. The wolf sections were fucking awful though. Of course, it gets the constant pass Zelda always gets because of nostalgia.

Back to Reality
Listen to, buy or share
935 listeners
Back to Reality arose in 2005 from the ashes of Szrod, whose existence dates back to 2000. Szrod engaged in rap-core and crossover and published a demo cd entitled "Bezsens" in 2004. The following year brings an unexpected change as the drummer, Choruss, leaves the band and is replaced by Kwacho. The crew, motivated by old ideals, creates new music which differs significantly from the previous stuff - the difference pushes the band to change its name. 2006 is the year of the first shows as Back to Reality but also of more changes behind the drumkit and after a few months' break the crew welcomes their new drummer, Anzelm. New rehearsals produce more coherent music rooted in the NY school of hardcore represented by Madball, Biohazard, Sick of it All or Merauder.

When I ordered my SBACH from WT I added a spinner, prop and a cable I needed. Total shipped was $153 and change. No charge for shipping as it was over $150.00. There is a $2.00 charge for something which brought the total to the $153. Great place to do business with and quick shipping...

Okay, here is the rookie question of the thread, I know the full scale pole cat is a pylon racer, So.. Is this one meant to be a racer as well? It only flys on a 1s brushed, the same power plant that is in the SU-26? If thats the case its not going to be very quick. Who knows, once I see the product fly I guess I can make my final say so then. I fly over a soccer field so I have a bunch of obstacles to fly around so it should be fun but I also want the SBACH but 180 dollars is WAY too much money for a micro.
|Jul 08, 2011, 06:03 PM
this always comes up and i don't really know why. why is $180 too much for a micro? what makes the micro any different than any other plane?
|Jul 08, 2011, 06:35 PM
180 bucks is to much for a bnf plane. I wont even get into their regular size planes as I think they are way over priced to but that can be a different discussion. Lets look at the beast, It started out at the same price but dropped down to around 130 after a long while of being out. We are talking about foam and electronics that have been out for a while now. I feel that for a brushless, 130 is a decent price but still they need to go one step further like they did with the extra 300 3d. We need basic kits to. You know how many single cell chargers I have? You know how many xbox type transmitters I have? To many! I am paying for extra stuff that I do not need or want. Give me the plane and maybe a battery.
My other issue is that since I got into the world of UM planes, I have seen a decline in quality control on these things and Horizon being very inconsistent in their customer support. One person may get an entirely new plane, another person is told the warranty is only good till the time of the sale. I mean, come on. what kind of crap is that? Just look at the latest sbach issues with sticking servos.I am lucky that I got one that works fine, but there have been several that have gotten planes that crash on the first flight due to QC problems. How would you feel if you payed 180 bucks for a plane that crashed on its first flight and was not due to your fault and then be told that the warranty is only good for the time of the sale? If they get their QC back up to being what it should be, THEN maybe the planes would be worth 180 bucks, or offering more basic kits at a lower price. For me, there are just several factors even beyond what I have written here that makes me question that price for getting brushless.
Now dont get me wrong, I do love almost all of my planes, I still feel I got the shaft on the corsair though, shame to, that was the one plane I was so looking forward to.
|Jul 08, 2011, 07:08 PM
You understand why I think 180 dollars is alot for a micro? They need to lower the price like they did to the Beast, 120 would be a decent price.
|Jul 08, 2011, 07:13 PM
ya the price could go down but what gets me is that just because its micro it should cost nothing. making things small is hard and expensive. just cause its smaller doesn't mean its cheaper to make than the larger planes.
|Jul 08, 2011, 07:29 PM
does anybody know if the Pole Cat has shipped from Cha-Cha-China on the ol sloooow boat yet?

I have some large birds so I can fly in the wind and I have some small birds so I can fly in my backyard, on my street, indoor, or in my local park. But the main reason I don't mind paying for UMs is the fact that I can have 15 totally differents birds, neatly stashed in a small corner, and my tender half doesn't mind. On the other side, I have a hard time when I get close to 10 large airplanes...
|Jul 08, 2011, 08:01 PM
If you guys want speed, upgrade the new pole cat into a 2S brushless rocket! I put a 2S brushless system in my sukhoi xp, now it flies like a rocket!!! A full throttle pass is as fast as a car zooming by on a freeway(seems like it, you can feel the wind too )!!

Linux 3.2-rc6: People Are Gaming My Release
Published on 17 December 2011 06:49 AM EST
Written by
Michael Larabel
Linux Kernel
3 Comments
X.Org Server 1.11.3
wasn't the only new piece of open-source software to be released on Friday, but Linus Torvalds also put out the Linux 3.2-rc6 kernel.
This latest test release of the
Linux 3.2 kernel
brings various bug/regression fixes, although Linus did let
RC6 power-savings support
slip in.
the 3.2-rc6 kernel, Linus warned that the developers are gaming his release timing. "Ok, people have clearly figured out and are gaming my release timing, because over half the commits in -rc6 were merged today. And that's purely because I got more merge requests today than I got the rest of the week.."
While this is upsetting to a release manager, he's thinking that a 3.2-rc7 kernel will be the last test release. This means the final Linux 3.2 kernel is likely to land at the very end of the year or right at the beginning of 2012. A New Year's Eve release wouldn't be out of the question for Linus.
A few of the features of this next kernel release are
talked about in this article

Caviar from across the Causeway? It's being hatched at Malaysia's sturgeon farms
Published on Jun 27, 2014 2:02 PM
MERSING (THE STAR/ASIA NEWS NETWORK) - Prepare for a taste of Malaysian caviar, which will come from sturgeon fish farms developed by the country's Federal Land Development Authority (Felda).
"There is high demand for caviar, especially among the rich, who do not mind forking out a large sum for the delicacy," said Malaysian Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak.
"Felda is targeting this market and will soon be releasing its own caviar product," he said when opening the Felda Sentuhan Kasih programme at Felda Tenggaroh 3 here on Thursday.
The sturgeon is native to subtropical, temperate and sub-Arctic rivers, lakes and coastlines of Eurasia and North America. Several species are harvested for their roe, which is made into caviar - a delicacy that makes some sturgeon varieties the most valuable of harvested fish.

Black Widow Motorsports, which has been fabricating and selling high-performance, off-road motorcycles, custom choppers and ATVs in the East Valley for about a year, has exploded into newer, bigger quarters.
The owners opened a new retail shop and fabrication operation at 1858 E. Main St. in Mesa to handle the burgeoning business.
The old store, near Baseline Road and Stapley Drive on the Mesa-Gilbert border, has closed, but a fabrication operation remains there to handle overflow orders.
Black Widow Motorsports, which claims to be the biggest Veno motorcycle dealer in Arizona, also sells gear, accessories and custom parts.
The grand opening festivities for the new store are scheduled for Jan. 14.
For Love 21, the Forever 21-spawned, young women's accessories store, finally revved up at Scottsdale Fashion Square, just in time for the under-24 set to use up some of that holiday gift cash or mall gift cards.
Massaggiano, The Massage Spa, opened in Grayhawk Plaza, Scottsdale Road and Grayhawk Drive in Scottsdale, offering traditional, specialty and signature massages, such as the Chocolate Delight or Calming Lavender, at affordable prices for men and women.
Federated Department Stores is planning going-outof-business sales at the Robinson's-May stores at Paradise Valley Mall and Mesa's Fiesta Mall beginning Jan. 29. The Paradise Valley store will be renamed and remerchandised as a Macy's sometime after the sale. Both stores will close for good sometime this quarter, a Federated spokesman said.
Federated bought the May Co. in March and soon after announced it will re-brand May stores as Macy's.
But East Valley Robinson's-May fans have a short reprieve.
The Robinson's-May stores in Chandler Fashion Center and Superstition Springs Center in Mesa will continue to operate for a few more months. They will be transformed into Macy's in September, and sometime before that, they will hold sales to clear out May Co. private label goods and other merchandise not carried by Macy's.
Still in limbo is the merged retailer's second store at Scottsdale Fashion Square. Federated still has not decided what will happen with that location, said spokesman Jim Sluzewski. The company will continue to operate it as a Robinson's-May for now and have a plan before September, Sluzewski said.
Also undetermined is the pre-merger Robinson's-May commitment for Westcor's SanTan Village, Williams Field Road west of the southern leg of the San Tan Freeway alignment in Gilbert. Robinson's-May and Dillard's had signed on for the only two department store slots at the openair regional shopping center.

Jermaine Dupri joins Carey's management team
NEW YORK (AP) - Music producer Jermaine Dupri is joining Mariah Carey's management team.
A representative for Carey confirmed the news Monday. They have collaborated on hits like "Always Be My Baby," "Don't Forget About Us" and "We Belong Together," which was named song of the decade and is one of the most popular songs of all time.
Carey said in a statement that she and Dupri "have a bond that surpasses music."
The singer is recording a new album called "The Art of Letting Go." The first single, the Miguel-featured "(hash)Beautiful," was released in May and peaked at No. 15.
Dupri has written and produced for Usher, Monica and Destiny's Child. He has had success with acts like Kris Kross, Xscape, Bow Wow and Jagged Edge on his So So Def label.

Gran Tierra Energy Increases 2013 Production Guidance, Expands Moqueta Field Appraisal Drilling Program In Colombia
Three appraisal wells added to 2013 Moqueta drilling program after Moqueta-11 tests almost 1,600 BOPD
CALGARY, Oct. 16, 2013 /PRNewswire/ - Gran Tierra Energy Inc. ("Gran Tierra Energy") (NYSE MKT: GTE, TSX: GTE), a company focused on oil exploration and production in South America, today provided a production and operations update for its 2013 work program.
"Gran Tierra Energy continues its operational momentum with strong corporate wide production in the third quarter, the successful testing of Moqueta-11 and the addition of three appraisal wells to this year's program to further define new reserve potential in the Moqueta field in the Putumayo Basin, Colombia," said Dana Coffield, President and Chief Executive Officer of Gran Tierra Energy. "The Moqueta-11 well tested two zones separately at a combined rate of almost 1,600 barrels of oil per day which should contribute to the growing production profile at the Moqueta field expected in 2014. Continued strong production and transportation performance throughout our portfolio has now led to another increase to Gran Tierra Energy's full-year production expectations," concluded Coffield.
Production Highlights:Production for the third quarter of 2013 averaged approximately 22,500 barrels of oil equivalent per day (" BOEPD") net after royalties (" NAR") before adjustment for inventory changes or 22,000 BOEPD NAR adjusted for inventory changes (97% oil). Production for the third quarter of 2013 consisted of 18,900 barrels of oil per day (" BOPD") NAR in Colombia, 2,800 BOEPD NAR in Argentina (82% oil) and 800 BOPD NAR in Brazil, all before inventory changes. Production for the third quarter of 2013 was above expectations due to the continued strong reservoir performance from the Costayaco field and successful execution of transportation strategies. As a result, Gran Tierra Energy anticipates 2013 average production to range between 21,500 and 22,500 BOEPD NAR before adjustment for inventory changes, an increase from the company's prior projections of 21,000 to 22,000 BOEPD NAR before adjustment for inventory changes. Approximately 96% of this production is expected to consist of light oil, with the balance consisting of natural gas.

Sneakers Releasing This Weekend – December 13th, 2014 by Patrick Johnson 29 Comments
releasing in July.
June 3, 2013 BY Brendan Dunne / 1
Red suede toe, yellow Swoosh, black sections across the upper…have we seen this Nike SB Dunk Low before? The "Black History Mon" from earlier this year definitely has quite a bit in common with the shoe shown, so we don't blame you if you had to do a double take when these first popped up in your vision. The pair here differentiates itself by leaving out the green and using quite a bit more suede all around. Continue reading for more on this upcoming Nike SB Dunk Low style and check in with Sneaker News for release info on the red-toed joints as soon as it pops up.

UPDATE 1-Fossil results beat estimates as North America watch sales rise
Feb 11 (Reuters) - Fashion accessory maker and retailer Fossil Group Inc reported better-than-expected quarterly results as it sold more watches and jewelry in North America, its largest market.
Fossil's shares rose 7.3 percent in extended trading.
The North American wholesale business, which contributes to about 45 percent of overall sales for the company, rose 13 percent to $400.1 million for the fourth quarter ended Dec. 28.
Fossil sells watches ranging from $7 to upwards of $2000, under brands such as Armani Exchange, Marc by Marc Jacobs and Michael Kors.
The Texas-based retailer has been reaping the benefits of a revamp of its jewelry line to the "affordable luxury" image that it has managed to achieve for its watches and handbags.
The company said it expects full-earnings of $6.90 to $7.30 per share for 2014, largely below average analyst estimate of $7.22, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.
Fossil also said it expects full-year revenue to rise about 12.5 to 14 percent.
The company earned $2.68 per share in the fourth quarter and revenue rose 12 percent to $1.06 billion.
Analysts on average were expecting the company to earn $2.43 on revenue of $1.02 billion, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.

New report finds food prices up
NATIONWIDE (WGME) -- Grab those coupons. Your next trip to the grocery store will likely cost you more.
A new report finds food prices are up almost half a percent. Data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics shows that's the biggest increase in food prices since September 2011.
Experts say food prices are up for several reasons, including drought and disease.
An analysis by financial website Wall Street 24-7 found these are the top 5 fastest rising food prices: bacon, ground beef, oranges, coffee, and peanut butter.
Hannaford spokesman Mike Norton told us, "the wholesale market is certainly putting the pressure on the retail market, but we feel we still have good values on our produce and meats."
