Horace "Tim" F. Eaton1927 - 2013
Horace Eaton passed away January 13, 2013 at Virginia Mason Hospital, Seattle, WA. Tim was born August 25, 1927 in Boston, MA to Horace Mann and Laura (Clark) Eaton. He attended Acadia University in Nova Scotia and Michigan Technological University. After graduating as a mechanical engineer, he first worked for the US government in Washington, DC and Taiwan. In 1955 Tim moved to Seattle and began work with the Boeing Company as a senior engineer until his retirement in 1984.
He was an entrepreneur who always had a project going. He was never at loss for a joke, and his sense of humor is legendary.
Tim is survived by June, his wife of 61 years, with whom he enjoyed many world travels and local adventures; daughter, Sharon Eaton and son, Fred Field-Eaton (Kris); grandsons, Cameron, Colin and Sean; sisters, Virginia Wright and Shirley Klindt. His son, Jonathan, and sister, June Hill, preceded him in death.
Tim's memorial service will be held February 2nd, 2pm at Peace Lutheran Church, 8316 39th Ave. SW, Seattle, WA 98136, interment at a later date at Forest Lawn. The family requests that any remembrances be made to Peace Lutheran Church, or to your favorite charity.

Date 2002-11-26 Availability unrestricted Abstract This study has a dual purpose. Firstly, it is aimed at determining the need for the effective management of outdoor information transfer as an important resource in the aesthetic environment. Effective management is seen as an optimisation of the benefits of outdoor information transfer, as well as a minimisation of its negative impacts. Secondly, this study was aimed at providing user-friendly guidelines to achieve this.The South African Manual for Outdoor Advertising Control (SAMOAC) was developed in 1998 as a national guideline document to provide detailed conditions for the management and control of outdoor advertisements and signs. This manual recognises the differences in local needs and circumstances and suggests that controlling authorities should adapt the prescribed conditions in this regard. Up till now this document has not been implemented successfully by the relevant controlling authorities. Outdoor advertisements of all sizes are increasing at an alarming rate in South Africa to the detriment of the perceptual environment and tourism resources. One of the most obvious reasons for this is the lack of motivation amongst the controlling authorities together with the persistency of the outdoor advertising industry.
This study provides the necessary motivation for involving controlling authorities, the outdoor advertising industry and the public in the meaningful and sustainable management of outdoor information transfer. It looks at the benefits and impact of outdoor information transfer in a holistic manner by taking the variety and interrelationship of such impacts and benefits into consideration. Most previous studies have only concentrated on a single aspect of outdoor information transfer namely the correlation between billboards and road accidents.
A key finding of this study is that the effective management of outdoor information transfer is unnegotiable. A laissez faire approach by controlling authorities and self-control by the outdoor advertising industry will lead to visual chaos. A balanced and responsible approach should be followed in managing outdoor information transfer. Outdoor advertising should never be aimed at utilising and maximising every available advertising opportunity and implementing whatever is technologically achievable at the cost of the perceptual environment. The effective management of outdoor information transfer is in the interest of both the perceptual environment and the outdoor advertising industry.
It has been found that sense of place and placeness play an important role with regard to the impacts and benefits of outdoor information transfer.
The lack of sufficient environmental ethics in Western society has been identified as an underlying problem. A non-pragmatic environmental world-view has therefore been provided based on Christian axioms to serve as a basis for environmental management including perceptual resource management and the management of outdoor information transfer.
In order to actualise the need for the effective management of outdoor information transfer general principles and user-friendly guidelines are provided that will be universally applicable. It will make the management of outdoor information transfer less subjective and will serve as a basis for legislative and control measures. These principles and guidelines are flexible enough to accommodate a variation in local conditions, lifestyles and aspirations. It can therefore serve as an instrument to adapt SAMOAC to suit local circumstances and needs.
The recommendations provided in this study are aimed at creating an appreciation for the perceptual environment as well as the role and aesthetic contribution of outdoor advertisements and signs. It is also aimed at involving the public, controlling authorities and the outdoor advertising industry in the sustainable management of outdoor information transfer as an important part of the perceptual environment.

text: Students who participate in NSE find that exchange places them in life-changing situations which challenge their thinking, expand their educational and personal experiences, and encourage them to take risks and reap the rewards of doing so. Each year 4500 students are placed by NSE member campuses. These students continue to make progress toward home campus degree programs while studying in new places, meeting new people, and enrolling in specialized courses or unique academic options which may not be available on their home campuses. You can join the more than 70,000 students who have benefited by the NSE experience. The National Student Exchange was founded as a counterpart to study abroad programs, recognizing that not every student is ready for a study opportunity outside their own country. Language, cost, and program compatibility are some of the reasons why students may not consider study abroad. Exchange within the United States and Canada removes those obstacles. NSE provides: There are many other reasons for exchanging through NSE. You are probably investigating exchange possibilities for a combination of reasons. Whatever they are, it is likely that the National Student Exchange can help you achieve your goals. Recent survey data show the nature and interests of students who chose to use NSE to meet their educational and personal goals. "NSE challenged me to become more independent and aggressive. I had to learn to adapt to new people and new places. NSE was one way I was able to prove to myself and to future employers that I was responsible and capable."

[487] Virtual Microscopy in Melanoma Synoptic Reporting; a Validation and a Comparative Study
A Al Habeeb, A Evans, D Ghazarian. University Health Network, Toronto, ON, Canada
Background: The current melanoma reporting relies heavily on proper synoptic reporting for more accurate, complete and reproducible reports. Aims: 1. To evaluate the current virtual microscopy (VM) in filling synoptic reports for melanoma cases. 2. To assess any possible impact of 20x scans vs. 40x scans on the accuracy.
Design: 10 consecutive cases of melanoma were collected. A total of 12 slides (10 H&E and 2 IHC slides) were scanned at both 20x and 40x using aperio scanscope CS. The cases were evaluated separately by 2 dermatopathologists. The results were evaluated.
Results: The melanoma cases were 1 in-situ, 2 nodular, 3 superficial spreading, one lentigo maligna melanoma, and 3 undetermined. Clark's level ranged from 1 to level 4. The melanoma thickness ranged from 0.0-4.3 mm (median 1.62mm). 6 cases were incompletely excised. There was one ulcerated case. None showed perineural or lymphovascular invasion or satellitosis. The mitotic index was reported in 7 cases ranging from 7-23/ mm ² with a median of 15.6. Pathologist A recorded the type of melanoma as originally reported in 9/10 cases. There was a discrepancy in 1 case were the type was recorded as superficial spreading instead of lentigo maligna melanoma. There was 100% concordance rate in Clark's level. The median thickness was 1.63 mm with no significant differences between 20x vs. 40x. All cases were reported as non-ulcerated missing one ulcerated melanoma. The margin status concordance rate was 100%. The mitotic index median was 5.4 (20x) vs. 6.0 (40x). Pathologist B reported melanoma types as originally reported in 9/10 cases with one case called lentigo maligna melanoma instead of superficial spreading melanoma. Clark's level estimation concurred with the original reports in all cases. The median thickness was 1.7 mm. One ulcerated melanoma was missed. The margin status concordance rate was 100%. The mitotic index median was 14 (x20) vs. 6.2 (x40).
Conclusions: The current system of virtual microscopy produces excellent quality images that make melanoma synoptic reporting feasible at both 20x and 40x scans. Although, in most cases 20x scans are sufficient, 40x scans can be resorted to in difficult cases for a far superior image quality. The current user interface (mouse) is not convenient specially when dealing with high volume. Also automated image analysis could play a major role in solving mitotic index evaluation, which inherently carries a high intra- and inter-observer variability.

I've been thinking about this for a while - were the really early Kessel Run events good or bad for the game? Normally at this point in a release cycle of a game I love, I'm pretty pumped. Some of the stuff (but not all) has been spoiled, rumors are hitting the net, and I'm ready to lay down big bucks to buy more stuff that I'll probably ever use consistantly. But I find that I'm substantially less enthused about this release than I was back in December, and I'm thinking I may only get 2 of the fighters and 1 each of the larger ships. Everything has been spoiled, and some players have had wave 2 models for going on 4 months.
Think about that. 4 months.
Its getting to the point where we can't even discuss wave 2 anymore, and it hasn't technically been released. Why? 1) its been spoiled long enough there isn't much left to talk about. 2) the haves have played potentially hundreds of games at this point and can talk a whole different level above the have nots (even if its just to dismiss the have nots becasuse they haven't actually played with it yet).
Would it have been better if the Kessel run events had been postponed until 2/23? At this point we'd just now be talking about all the combos possible in wave 2 and the buzz would be huge. Of course, we would have had the past 4 months of only wave 1 to talk about, so perhaps no one would be interested anymore.

The Race - It is not always the fastest pig that wins the race, it is sometimes the smartest pig. Usually in a deep sleep, our pigs hear the Bugle Call and they hurriedly run into their starting box to await the commencement of the race.
The crowd claps as the piglets run into their starting box ready for the big event. As the crowd counts backwards from 5 the piglets take up their positions eagerly awaiting the opening of the starting gate.
They're off and racing down Dunlop straight jumping through tyres in their brightly coloured jackets, each trying to get through each tyre first!

It takes a special kind of person to watch the NHL season go up in flames, then a city forced under water, and try to put a positive spin on things. Frankly, the more of those people who exist the better. Friend of the blog Will Martinez, AKA @HeyMyNameIsWill, has been watching the two disasters (not to remotely equate the significance of the two) and cooking up an idea. A really cool idea, actually, and one that we here at Backhand Shelf would love to be a part of.
Below is his proposal that he sent in email form to the NHLPA. Check it out, and let's see if we can't get the ball rolling on something like this. It would certainly take the involvement of organizations a lot bigger than just ours.
I write to you not to express anger and resentment over the current lockout but rather to try and turn several negatives into a positive. The lockout and upcoming cancellation of the Winter Classic are certainly unfortunate but not as unfortunate as the effects Hurricane Sandy recently had on the New York City/New Jersey area in particular. The following is an idea to hopefully make a positive out of each of those situations:
I propose that six weeks from now, give or take, an outdoor charity tournament be held outdoors in Central Park, New York City to benefit victims of Hurricane Sandy. On the Friday night of the event, all interested players would be split into eight teams, each named after various boroughs/neighborhoods in the NY/NJ area to promote rooting interests among the fans. Sticks would be placed in the middle of the Central Park rink that will be set up and a shinny-style draft would be held.
The attendance for the weekend would consist of Sandy victims, all of which would receive complimentary tickets, and those who have won auctions on all remaining tickets. I imagine corporate sponsors would jump at the chance to be a part of this event.The draft and tournament would all be televised with four quarterfinals taking place on Saturday and the semifinals and final taking place on Sunday. Every single dollar raised by this event would go directly to the victims of the hurricane to help rebuild their lives and maybe even make their holidays a little better.
I'm sure there are several hurdles in this idea that I haven't thought of but I don't see why some variation of this couldn't happen. Anyway, just an idea…
Best Regards,
Will Martinez
I'll say this: if we can ever get an event like this together, I will be there in person to be a part of it. So what say you? Is something like this reasonable, or utter fantasy? Or IS THE NHL GOING TO BE BACK BY THEN?
…Yeah, probably not the last one. Let's hope this gets seen by someone with a little power at the players union, and they see an opportunity to do some good during their "down time."

Some interesting financial numbers ahead of this week's Club World Cup semifinals:
In 2011 Copa Libertadores holders Corinthians grossed 34 per cent of the revenues UEFA Champions League winners Chelsea took in over the same period.
That may seem a significant gap, but as Paulo Cobos pointed out in his Monday column for ESPN Estadão—the Portuguese-language ESPN syndicate that services Brazil—it's a chasm that has never been smaller, and one that continues to narrow.
"The difference between the Brazilians and Europeans in the Club World Cup has always been much higher," he writes, adding that 12 months ago Santos arrived in Japan with only 9.6 per cent of Barcelona's 2010 revenues.
There are some obvious shortcomings if you take these maths as accounting gospel. Corinthians are considered a much bigger club than Santos and have often had considerably more financial muscle at their disposal while Barcelona are simply on another level, both in finances and reputation, than Chelsea.
But that's not how these numbers are meant to be interpreted.
These are vitalizing times for Brazilian club football. A vibrant and growing economy has seen sponsorship and television money escalate sharply in recent years, and the reverse migration of star Brazilian players coupled with the decisions of high-profile youngsters to stay in their home country a bit longer has contributed to a sense of triumphalism.
Plus, Cobos notes, Chelsea's revenue grew at a rate of 13 per cent over the previous fiscal year, and while that would represent exceptionally good business for many organisations it pales in comparison to the 37 per cent growth Corinthians enjoyed in 2011.
Of course, what really matters to Brazilian fans and their media outlets who are covering the Club World Cup with Kate Middleton-like obsession is that Corinthians win the tournament, preferably beating Chelsea in the final. And they're supremely confident they can do that, too.
Mazembe Factor: Corinthians manager Tite has warned his players to be wary of what he has called the "Mazembe Factor"—a reference to the 2010 Club World Cup semifinal where African champions TP Mazembe, representing the Democratic Republic of Congo, ousted Copa Libertadores holders Internacional.
"Everyone expects us to reach the final, and so do we—with all due respect to our opponents," remarked midfielder Paulinho in a Monday press conference. "We know that we will have trouble, we will face an experienced team, but we know the first step is to advance with a result."
Playmaking midfielder Oscar, now with Chelsea, was a part of that Internacional side that lost to TP Mazembe in the United Arab Emirates. "We were all expecting to get to the final and it was such a big surprise when we lost," he told World Soccer Digest recently. "I'm pleased to have this second opportunity."
Corinthians will face current African champions Al-Ahly on Wednesday (kickoff 5:30am ET; 10:30 am GMT) while Chelsea will go up against CONCACAF representative Monterrey at the same time on Thursday.
Football for hope, not Palmeiras: Each side at the 2012 Club World Cup is required to wear a badge recognising FIFA's Football for Hope initiative—a scheme the sport's governing body says is "to promote education, public health and football" in disadvantaged communities.
Corinthians, however, got rather queasy when they saw the badge design and noticed a shade of green that resembled the primary colour of arch-rivals Palmeiras. There is a fierce dislike between the two São Paulo sides and Corinthians have never sported green, of any shade, on their uniforms at any time during their history.
"We all know this traditional rivalry with Palmeiras," acknowledged Corinthians director of football Edu Gaspar when questioned by reporters. "Thus, we politely asked FIFA to remove the logo from our shirt, but they responded that it is not possible to do so. For the first time in our history we have the colour green on our shirt."
Talk about taking rivalry to another, wholly inappropriate, level.
Benitez not feeling pressure: On Monday Chelsea manager Rafael Benitez and several of his players participated in the club's first press conference since arriving in Japan for the Club World Cup. The Blues have never before been involved in the world's premiere intercontinental competition and Benitez reiterated his desire to lift the trophy, adding it "doesn't matter if we are in the Champions League or not."
"It's a massive competition. Everybody here has the same idea as me—to win every trophy," remarked the Spaniard. "It's a great opportunity and we're here to win. We won our last two games and we're playing well."
About Fernando Torres, who has bagged a brace in each of his last two matches, Benitez underlined his belief that the team has been "creating more chances" and that his teammates have been "playing well."
Peter Cech also took questions from reporters and once again stated the importance of the competition, saying, "You can only play in this competition if you win the Champions League, and I've had to wait eight years to get here."
Ahly's remarkable year continues: Egyptian side Al-Ahly has not played a competitive, domestic match since the country's top flight was suspended in February following the Port Said riots, but a successful African Champions League campaign was followed on Sunday by a 2-1 win over hosts Sanfrecce Hiroshima—a win that set up Wednesday's showdown with Corinthians.
"I've not had much time yet to really study Corinthians, but my team put in a really good performance against Sanfrecce and we've now got to turn our focus to the Brazilian side," Ahly manager Hossam El Badry told FIFA.com. "We're in a special situation and I'm sure every Egyptian is pleased with our opening result. The Egyptian people have made many sacrifices."
Mohamed Aboutrika—widely regarded as one of the finest Africa-based players never to ply his trade in Europe—scored the winner in the quarterfinal against Sanfrecce after coming on as a first-half substitute for the injured Hossam Ghaly. It was the fourth Club World Cup goal of his career, tying the all-time record held by Denilson and Lionel Messi.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"Came out better than I expected! Customer service was excellent! Wanted to change picture day after I placed order and they took care of it."
"As a calligrapher who just addressed 80 envelopes for my son's wedding invitations, this was an impressive (and easy for me) way to go for the rehearsal dinner. I LOVE a square card or stationery so this was perfect. The paper quality was thick, sturdy and a beautiful modeled finish. Because the RSVP date was 2/14, I watercolored a small pink heart by the RSVP date and the card stock accepted it with no problem. I am very pleased with this product and would recommend it and use this site again."
"My first time ordering online invitations. Looks exactly as I expected. Beautiful print. Received many compliments. Would definitely use this company again."
"Had many edits: changed dinner to luncheon, additional wording on front with specifics about event on back. Customer service was a pleasure to work with; knowledgeable, helpful & patient. Wish all customer service experiences were as pleasant as what I encounterd at Wedding Paper Divas."
"We ordered this as a sample and ended up choosing this one. It was fun and colorful and went along with the style of our rehearsal dinner venue (a winery). I requested a different background color and they were able to fulfill my request. The final product was GORGEOUS. I went with rounded edges versus the sample cut and thought it looked nicer."

President Barack Obama has arrived in the Bay Area, and is heading to San Francisco for a visit that will begin with a stop at a Chinatown community center where he will speak briefly about immigration reform.
Air Force One touched down at San Francisco International Airport at 10:37 a.m. The president came in from Seattle, another stop on his West Coast fundraising tour.
Among those waiting to greet him on tarmac was U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein.
Obama is heading from the airport to the Betty Ong Recreation Center at 1199 Mason St., where he will give brief remarks calling on Congress to pass immigration reform that includes a path to citizenship for those currently living in the country illegally and measures to strengthen border security.
The president is then scheduled to attend a Democratic National Committee fundraiser at the SFJazz Center at 201 Franklin St.
A private event at Salesforce.com founder Marc Benioff's home will cap Obama's quick visit before he heads back to the airport to fly to the Los Angeles area this afternoon.
As with Obama's last Bay Area visit in June, the president will be met by protesters who will be calling attention to various issues including the proposed Keystone XL pipeline and the Obama administration's drone policy.

Also known as "can" lights thanks to their cylindrical shape, recessed lights are inexpensive, work well with low ceilings (where clearance is an issue), and get the job done. They're common in new construction, but there are "remodel" housings available, too. Cans offer a clean and modern look, but let's face it, they lack personality.
What if you have a recessed can light where you'd rather see a surface-mount fixture? Changing the recessed housing to an electrical box is a situation that typically requires hiring an electrician. That could cost roughly $200 per fixture, according to New York-based general contractor Colin Campbell of Campbell Construction. Plus, the sheetrock around the fixture would need to be replaced and painted, making the project even more expensive to tackle—$200 or $300 total per fixture, depending on the surface area involved. And that's before you add in the cost of the replacement fixture.

This is self-inflated bullsh*t.
Some bureaucrat felt extreeeeeeemely proud of him/herself for coming up with this idea.
And what does that girl, the program analyst, know about the "differences" between the needs/illnesses/disabilities of Vietnam and Iraq/Afghanistan veterans? She sounds like a twit. Her ideas sound extremely "stylish".
And this apparently is being screened to an audience of HR professionals working at the VA. What's the purpose? It plays very much like a mindless pep-talk.

I'm a denizen of Dilbert's Cubicle Hell. OEM electronics manufacturers. The earliest of Scott Adams' series hit too close to home for me to read lots of them in a single sitting. I wind up laughing, but with the muscles of my neck and shoulders literally in knots.
I recognize this type of thing.
Trying to respectfully tiptoe through PJM's comment rules, it strikes me as some bureaucrat's method for … (cough) … 'self-gratification'.
I even wonder who the man is who's mimicking George C. Scott/Patton. Might he be the bureaucrat (or one of them) who commissioned this video? I think — just in case — it might be worth finding out.

globalFEST Expands to Two Nights and Announces 2006 Line-Up. New York event to feature a diverse roster of world music artists. Published October 25, 2005 Artist lineup includes Auktyon (Russia), Daara J (Senegal), Daby Touré (Mauritania), DJ Dolores (Brazil), Emil Zrihan (Israel/Morocco), Frank London's Klezmer Brass All Stars (USA), Juan Carmona (France), Keren Ann (France/USA), Las Ondas Marteles (France), Lura (Cape Verde/Portugal), Niyaz (Iran/India/USA), Roxane Butterfly's Worldbeats presents 'Djellabah Groove' (France/USA/Morocco), and Steve Riley & the Mamou Playboys (USA/Louisiana).
Returning for a third year after two consecutive sold-out concerts, globalFEST—New York's world music extravaganza—announces the line-up for what has expanded to a two-night event. The festival takes place Saturday, January 21 and Sunday, January 22, 2006 at The Public Theater, with the same 13 acts performing each night.
The event is the creation of three of America's premier world music concert presenters: Maure Aronson of World Music/CRASHarts (Boston), Bill Bragin of The Public Theater (NYC), and Isabel Soffer of World Music Institute (NYC). The three teamed up in the face of the post-9/11 economic and political climate which threatened to dampen U.S. touring of international acts. Two years of sold-out crowds demonstrated that the demand for global music has not abated.
"For the past two years, we had more demand than space at the festival," explains Aronson. "And even those that did get in wanted to see more. So we are going to two days and expect that some people will come back the second night and catch what they may have missed."
This year globalFEST features artists representing a wide diversity of cultures, traditions, and aesthetics: Anyone drawn to beautiful voices and passionate performance will want to hear Mauritania's soulful Daby Toure, the pyrotechnic Judeo-Arab-Andalusian vocals of Emil Zrihan (Israel via Morocco), the extraordinary flamenco guitarist Juan Carmona, the sultry and enigmatic Paris/Nolita chanteuse Keren Ann, Cape Verde's charismatic rising star Lura, or the artful boleros of France's Las Ondas Marteles. Club enthusiasts may split up to take in Senegalese hip-hop crew Daara J, Brazil's mangue-beat experimentalist DJ Dolores, or the Persian/Indian electronic synthesis of Los Angeles' Niyaz. Other party-goers will find themselves dancing to the carnival madness of Frank London's Klezmer Brass All Stars or Cajun masters Steve Riley and the Mamou Playboys. Meanwhile boundary-crossers might try on the North African, jazz, and tap fusion of Roxane Butterfly's Worldbeats, or the unclassifiable Russian art-rock innovators Auktyon. (Artist descriptions attached.)
The diverse tastes of audience members will be met with 45-minute sets performed on three stages at The Public Theater: Joe's Pub, the Anspacher Theater, and Martinson Hall. Concert-goers pay one price for an evening-long festival of contemporary and traditional music from around the globe, with discounted tickets available for audience members who purchase tickets for both nights.
"People who just want to see their artist for an entire evening are not the primary audience for globalFEST," says co-founder Isabel Soffer. "It's for people who are very open-minded, and that's what we've geared it to."
As in years past, globalFEST 2006 challenges audiences to re-think the parameters of world music. As the Village Voice's Carol Cooper described the first year, "Few, if any, of these acts were obsessed with the 'purity' of their music. Authenticity and purity are not the same, and if festival participants chose to bend and blend genre categories, it was only after serious study of those root musics they hoped to update or alter. If anything, the participants in Manhattan's first globalFEST proved it's possible to respect the past without being forced to preserve it forever unchanged." Isaac Guzman wrote in The Daily News, "Aside from the high quality of the artists, what's striking about globalFEST is that it does away with typical notions of what constitutes world music."
Since its 2004 launch, globalFEST has served as a beacon for international musicians hoping to boost their presence in North America. The festival seeks to showcase artists for fans and impresarios alike. Scheduled to coincide with the annual Arts Presenters conference—a performing arts event where most North American performing arts centers and festivals book their coming seasons—globalFEST identifies artists on the cus

TUCSON - D-M officials have confirmed that a sonic boom did take place over Tucson at about 2:45 p.m. today.
In a news release, Davis-Monthan Air Force Base officials state that an investigation determined that one of the demonstrations performed today in advance of tomorrow's Open House did break the sound barrier, causing a sonic boom.
"It is uncommon for aircraft to break the sound barrier during a performance and is restricted over populated areas," the release states.
Several high-profile aerial squadrons are in town today, including the U.S. Air Force's Thunderbirds.
Tucson Police reports that they received over 70 calls reporting the boom, and several midtown businesses and homes were damaged. News 4 Tucson's Sam Salzwedel reported from Steps Dance and Fitness Studio at 4 p.m., where the boom caused the storefront's windows to shatter.
Here is information on how to make a property damage claim, from the D-M news release:
Anyone wishing to make a claim due to property damage, please contact the 355th Fighter Wing Claims office at 520-954-0146 or the 355th Fighter Wing Public Affairs office at 520-228-3406. Claims representatives will be sent to assess damage at your convenience. For more information on how to file a claim, please visit the D-M website at www.dm.af.mil.
We'll have more on the sonic boom and its effects this evening on News 4 Tucson.

Ultravision Theatre
747 S. Federal Highway,
Deerfield Beach,
2 people favorited this theater
Showing 17 comments
I watched the Ultravision being built in the late sixties . The grand opening was a big affair , spot lights , a few movie stars , and guest were dressed to the 9's ( formal attire ) . It was absolutly beautiful , one of the last big screen , big sound theatres . I worked there from 1974 to 1977 . It was a great experience . The midnight movies were off the chain . We had local bands play ,than a short ( like the three stooges ) and than the feature film ( my fav was Led Zepplins " The Song Remains The Same " ) . It was sad to see it torn down but the experience of seeing 100s of movies will be with me forever .
Coming soon where the Ultra-Vision once stood: Aldi. Additional stores supposed to follow.
Demolition began on February 25 at the former Deerfield Ultra-Vision Twin. Retail space appears slated to follow.
I grew up in Deerfield Beach in the late 70s, and the Ultravision was the best thing about that town, next to the beach. It was a fantastic theater with the biggest most comfortable seats I'd ever experienced in a movie theater up to that point. I saw many great movies there, like Blade Runner and Raiders of the Lost Ark, both of which I watched over 30 times in that theater. I would go in for the matinee in the afternoon and stay through three or four viewings. The theater was so big and so dark that all I had to do was hunker down in the seat in between showings and the ushers would never see me. :) It also had one of the best sound systems of any theater I've ever been in. Four huge speakers with with something like 20 inch woofers mounted high on the walls on each side of the theater.
The first time I took the girl to the movies, in middle school, was at the Ultravision, Smokey and the Bandit 1977. Later when I was a teenager it became the place to go see midnight movies, like The Rocky Horror Picture Show, and hang out in the parking lot. I was sad when it closed and was converted into a church.
I remembered the Gold Coast drive-in as well, used to see Cheech and Chong movies there. It closed down in the 70s and became a hangout for kids before they tore it down. We built tree forts in the Australian pines, and ransacked the old buildings, nothing but bags of paper cups and popcorn butter mix left behind. It used to be the spot local kids would go to hide from the Deerfield cops when we skipped school. Tore it down to build the Winn-Dixie shopping center, we were so mad that they were destroying our hangout, several of us would go into the construction site every night with sledge hammers and axes to destroy what the construction workers had built each day. We were so effective in demolishing cinderblocks and insulation panels that the Deerfield Police Department had to post an officer there through the night to prevent the deconstruction havoc we wreaked every evening. :) The only thing that survived of the Gold Coast was a line of those tall pine trees that were left untouched, which may still survive even today.
No argument about the posted opening announcement. But I remember my parents having passes for a pre-opening test event at the Ultravision. Not sure, but it might have been a screening of 1971's The Trojan Women.
I uploaded an ad from February 11th, 1971 with an picture of the theatre.
The Dolphin page here at CT:
Back in Deerfield, a "for sale" sign recently went up in front of the former Ultravision.
1971 Palm Beach Post coverage of another Ultravision screen in the Broward/Palm Beach area, as the Dolphin opens in Palm Springs, with a concise explanation of the Ultravision projection process:
Like the Ultravision Deerfield, the Dolphin was shuttered by the mid 80s, becoming one of the first local locations of Home Depot.
For more background on the Ultravision concept, check the commentary and links at:
Also meant to mention that if the Deerfield Ultravision went out with a whimper, it was still packing them in almost to the end: "Raiders of the Lost Ark," "ET: The Extra-Terrestrial," and "Beverly Hills Cop" each played for the better part of six months.
Thanks for locating that grand opening ad, Mike. The Gold Coast Drive In (a couple blocks south) and GCC's Pompano Cinema (2 ½ miles south) certainly weren't celebrating that day. In particular, Pompano lost their lock on Disney product, and changed their policy to allow R-rated films.
The Ultravision fed my moviegoing habit from ages 9 to 24, supplying kiddie/summer matinees (often MGM and Selznick library classics) early on and later introducing me to the midnight movie movement. I know now that's what they needed to do to keep the place solvent, but it was a nice coincidence to have those movies readily available. One hasn't lived until they've stood in a long line populated with "A Clockwork Orange" and "Dawn of the Dead" fans.
Interesting that the grand opening ad mentions "Song of Norway" being presented in 70MM and stereo. A projectionist there in the later years told me they didn't have the tracks for 70MM, and stereo wasn't installed (south auditorium only) until 1980 ("The Elephant Man" being the first I saw with enhanced sound).
The Ultravision have other hoped-for spectacles in its early years: widescreen travelogues like "The RA Expeditions" and the psychedelic reissue of "Fantasia" (except for me and my mom, hippies occupied all 648 other seats — standing ovation for Mickey Mouse, mock cries of "Shame!" upon sight of the bare-breasted centaurettes, a massive cloud of weed…). They did their best to ballyhoo the likes of "The Great Waltz" remake, spelling out the film's name all the way across the front of the building, decorating the lobby — and mainly to empty rocking chair seats.
I was there closing night in September 1985, purely by chance. A subrun of "The Emerald Forest" was booked on the north screen; I'd seen it in one of the crummy tube theaters elsewhere, and was eager to revisit it on a real wide screen. Spotted a tiny sign reading "Goodbye" near the entrance. The manager came over and thanked me for the support. He introduced me to the regional rep for Plitt, who made it official: the Ultravision was now deemed a dinosaur, and a church was moving in.
Almost 25 years later, I've been meaning to go to one of their services just to see what they've done with the place. It's obvious that the former south screen has now been refitted with offices and classrooms, and the north round provides the house of worship.
Certainly not forgetting you Rocky Horror cast members, some of whom I got to know and write about for the local community college newspaper! Heard you guys were having so much fun they almost had to call the sheriff a couple times : )
Al, you are a few block off. Google street view is at View link
This opened on February 12th, 1971
Opening announcement is at View link
The address is:
823 S. Federal Highway and the building can be seen on this Google satellite map.
It's the one that looks like three water tanks.
WOW….must be on the same wavelength as Cyberactor. On a whim a did a search for the Deerfield Ultravision and found this. I performed Rocky Horror with him way back when and I agree with everything he said. The Ultravision was the BEST theater to do Rocky in, it had the huge ramp in the front and a great spotlight…that usually followed the action…unless of course there was other action taking place in the spotlight booth (LOL)!! I still can't believe it's a church…all the Holy Water in the world can't take all the sins that happened there. And boy did we have fun making them happen!!!
I used to perform the Rocky Horror Picture Show on Fridays and Saturdays at midnight at the Ultravision back in the early 80's. It was a magnificent theatre. Huge, with a big stage in the front where we could do our show. A big ramp went from the floor up to the screen and we did all kinds of wacky things up there. I've done the Rocky show in a few other theatres, but that one was the best.
I also saw E.T., Raiders of the Lost Ark and a million other movies in that theatre. Shame it's a church now. It wouldn't be if they knew what we did in there!
The Ultravision is still a church I believe. It's on US 1 in Deerfield, still looking like a movie theater. It closed in the mid to late 80s.

[170] Discordance of Estrogen Receptor (ER), Progesterone Receptor (PR) and Her-2/Neu Expression between Primary Breast Carcinoma and Brain Metastasis.
Shveta Hooda, Gloria Carter, Mamatha Chivukula. UPMC, Pittsburgh, PA
Background: About a third of invasive breast carcinomas metastasize to brain. Breast cancer patients who developed brain metastasis had higher proportions of triple-negative and HER2+/ER- tumor expression. There is paucity of information on the discordance of Estrogen Receptor(ER), Progesterone Receptor (PR) and Her-2/neu status between primary and metastatic breast carcinoma although this might affect the systemic therapy of the patient's metastatic disease. The aim of our study is to analyze the ER, PR and Her2/neu expression of primary breast carcinoma that metastasize to brain.
Design: We performed a retrospective analysis of 20 patients with breast carcinoma with documented brain metastasis. We searched the laboratory information system (LIS) (Copath plus) for the ER, PR and Her2/neu data on these patients.
Results: Only the cases with paired data available on atleast one of the markers were included in the study. We found no discordance in ER staining between the primary and metastases. The discordance rate for PR was 22% and for HER2/neu was 7%. Out of the 2 cases that showed discordance in PR staining, 1 case lost PR and the other gained PR in metastases. We found Her2/neu discordance in only 1 case which showed positivity in the metastases.
Concordant cases | Discordant cases | |
ER (n=11) | 11 (100%) | 0 |
PR (n=9) | 7 (78%) | 2 (22%) |
Her2/neu (n=14) | 13 (93%) | 1 (7%) |

Group Rights not okay??
Added by Werner Frerichs over 2 years ago
Hi Newsgroup
We use Nexentastor 3.2.2
- NexentaStor is the NIS-MasterServer
- Access from Linux-Clients with NFS4
- Access from Windows Clients with CIFS
Example: There are 2 Users "abc" and "def" and 2 Groups "users" and "bup".
"users" is the default group for all users. User "abc" and "def" are also in Group "bup"
If you have a file with owner "abc" and group "bup" with the following rights: "rw- rw- r--", user "def" cannot write to the file, reading is possible.
If you change the group of the file to the default one "users", user "def" can also write.
It seems, that the group access ist correct for the default usergroup, but not for the other groups. The default usergroup ist the one, that appears in "/etc/passwd".
Is it possible to solve our problem?

Choosing the Right Lancing Device
Lancing devices are critical tools for obtaining blood samples for glucose measurement. While good diabetes management requires frequent blood testing, the pain and inconvenience involved in lancing can prevent a person with diabetes from undertaking the appropriate number of daily blood glucose tests.
Today, there are many different lancing devices available. Understanding what to look for can help you to choose the device that is best for you.
Selecting a Lancing Device
A common practice in selecting a lancing system is to rely on the device that comes with a particular blood glucose meter. This is like using an inferior razor simply because it came with your favorite shaving cream.
You should instead review lancing devices independently of meters in order to select the one best suited to your specific needs.
In doing so, consider these three key criteria:
1. Convenience
2. Pain
3. Safety
"People with diabetes are often advised to check their blood glucose several times per day," says Jeff Hitchcock, president of the organization Children With Diabetes.
"Based on our most recent poll data, kids with diabetes are testing on average more than six times per day," says Hitchcock. "Therefore, it is important that lancing systems be as simple and easy to use as possible."
To this end, the devices should require the fewest possible number of steps for lancing in order to provide the best user experience. For example, the priming and firing of the lancing device should be simple. Some devices require two-handed operation to pull back the cocking mechanism, while others simplify the process to one-handed operation with the press of a button—just like a ballpoint pen.
The next generation of devices will offer the added convenience of multiple self-contained lancets in a cartridge, thus eliminating the need for loading and unloading a new or used lancet.
Many people with diabetes acknowledge that callused fingers and frequent doses of sharp pain have become a normal part of everyday life. In addition to pain at the moment of lancing, people with diabetes also experience lingering pain and slow healing of the punctured sites.
To help minimize pain, tissue damage and discomfort, choose a device that offers a smooth, well-controlled stick. Today, spring-driven devices with cam guidance tend to offer smoother control than those with linear guidance.
Lancing to the right depth is another key consideration. A lancet should pierce the skin only to the depth necessary to get an adequate amount of blood. Lancing too deep causes increased pain, while not lancing deep enough requires re-lancing. For now, the best option is a device that features multiple depth settings. While these devices offer improvements over those lacking this feature, they often prove unreliable in reaching the intended depth. To compensate, the user dials the depth setting deeper than necessary to prevent having to re-lance.
Tomorrow's third-generation devices will offer enhanced sophistication to ensure near 100 percent reliability in depth accuracy.
The need to load and remove lancets for each individual use creates issues of safety, particularly for children.
The safest products available today are those that allow safe ejection of the used lancet without handling. However, even some devices with an ejection mechanism do not work when used with hollow-back lancets. This problem will eventually be resolved with the advent of self-contained lancets in one disposable cartridge or disk.
The Future of Lancing Devices
The future of lancing promises the introduction of several enhanced devices that further improve the lancing experience.
One of these systems will be the Accu-Chek MultiClix. This cam-driven lancing device integrates a six-lancet cartridge, eliminating the need to eject and replace a lancet after each test.
Additionally, in the near future, expect electronically controlled lancing systems.
The Pelikan Sun system is one such device that is currently under development by Pelikan Technologies Inc. of Palo Alto, California. The Pelikan Sun system utilizes technology controlled by an electronic drive mechanism known as Smart Lancing. Working together, these components quickly and precisely drive each lancet at an individually controlled speed to the exact intended depth while minimizing unnecessary vibrations.
According to Pelikan Technologies, the Pelikan Sun system will have 30 depth settings. In addition, due to the system's strict control over every aspect of the lance, pain will be reduced.
The Pelikan Sun lancing device will also integrate 50 sterile lancets into one small disposable disk, eliminating the need to handle, load and unload exposed lancets.

Florence Welch just released a new album "Lungs" It is really great! Full of power and passion!
Here is a little quote from the review by Sheryl Garratt from The Observer about it:
"Florence specialises in dark, gothic imagery – werewolves, wedding dresses, bleeding hearts and coffins – and quirky tunes that start quietly and build into big, soaring climaxes. The songs are generally angry, with an undercurrent of violence and/or animal passion, and a nagging hook to keep you there. When this girl falls in love, you gather, she really falls. When it's over, the only recourse is pain, rage and vast quantities of alcohol."

I could not have hoped for anything better with this product.It fits perfectly, and the color is exactly as shown on the website. It does not shrink or fade, and does not need ironing.I would recommend this product to working men who do not necessarily need to wear formals to work.
by Jordan.mitchell78 | Date Added: Thursday 03 October, 2013 |
A perfect happy medium between khakis and jeans. Look sharp enough that they wouldn't look out of place with a dress shirt in a business-casual setting, but durable and stain-resistant enough to wear without worry at a job that has a physical or dirty component. Good fit, as well.
by Paul T. Deegan | Date Added: Thursday 19 September, 2013 |
These fit really well, good straight cut, decent room in the crotch. They can pass for business casual but they are right on the line. They have jeans style pockets and seams so they're not perfect business casual, but they look and feel great. These pants are better than what I expected from Dickies and I think they'll be pretty tough too.

Hard to find in five pocket and.sizes and colors limited. Really like but disappointed product is being discontinued after seraching so long for the perfect pant.

Want to know a good way to win over a sappy blogger whose favorite player just retired? Do this.
From the Kings' media relations manager, Devin Blankenship:
James Johnson will wear #52 to honor former Kings great B-Rad Miller. The two became friends in Chicago and share a love of 'outdoors'
As an avowed James Johnson hater who considers him amongst my all-time least favorite Bulls, I am doing a 180 on this and mentally high-fiving him for making a righteous decision. If the league isn't going to mandate that No. 52 is retired by every team — a step that is inevitable, but seems to have been help up for some unknown reason — then this is the next best thing. Considering he's had one of the most ill-conceived hairstyles of the past few years, just like Brad, it seems a nice fit.
However, for Jimmy Johns to prove he is truly worthy of the hallowed No. 52 and that he really loves the outdoors, I think he needs to appear on an episode of "Country Boys Outdoors." That's the only way to know he's for real.
If he played with a tin of dip in his shorts, that'd help too.
