NVIDIA GeForce 610M
The NVIDIA GeForce 610M is an entry level dedicated laptop graphics card and based on the same GF119 chip like the Geforce GT 520M, GeForce GT 520MX and Geforce 710M. The clock rates can be up to 900MHz like the 520MX but also variants with lower clocks than the GT 520M can be found (e.g. Acer Aspire 5750G wat 672 MHz). Using DDR3, the 64 Bit memory bus may become a bottleneck for the graphics card.
The GF119 offers 48 ALUs, 8 texture units and a 64 Bit memory interface for DDR3-VRAM. Therefore, it is similar to a half GF108 (GeForce GT 540M) but is manufactured with optimized transistors. As a difference the amount of raster-operation-processors (ROP) stayed the same at 4. The GF119 is the smallest chip of the Fermi generation and is used for low-end laptops.
As an entry level card, the (GT) 610M has to compete against the Intel HD Graphics 3000 and HD Graphics 4000. The performance depends on the chip clock speeds of the 610M and therefore ranges between the GeForce GT 520M and GT 520MX. Therefore demanding games like Crysis 2 or Mafia 2 run fluently only in the lowest detail and resolutions. Less demanding games like Fifa 11 or Sims 3 should be playable even in high detail settings.
Like 500M series chips, the 610M supports Bitstream HD Audio (Blu-Ray) output via HDMI. That means the card is able to transfer Dolby True HD and DTS-HD bitstream-wise to a HiFi receiver without quality loss.
The 610M offers the PureVideo HD technology for video decoding. The included Video Processor 5 (VP5) supports feature set D and therefore the GPU is able to fully decode MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4 Part 2 (MPEG-4 ASP - e.g., DivX or Xvid), VC-1/WMV9, and H.264 (VLD, IDCT, Motion Compensation, and Deblocking). Compared to the older VP4, the VP5 offers faster decodes at lower power, HD-to-SD transcodes and 4K x 4K resolution H.264 decode support.
Furthermore, the GPU is able to decode two 1080p streams simultaneously (e.g. for Blu-Ray Picture-in-Picture).
Through CUDA, OpenCL, and DirectCompute 2.1 support, the GeForce GT 610M can be of help in general calculations. For example, the stream processor can encode videos considerably faster than a fast CPU can. Furthermore, physics calculations can be theoretically done by the GPU using PhysX (e.g. supported by Mafia 2 or Metro 2033) but the performance will not be sufficient for this.

Are you on good terms with your Fantasy Football commissioner?
The aftermath of Yahoo's fantasy servers going down are still being felt today, with Ken Fuchs releasing another FAQ for still irate fantasy owners.
The biggest piece of news:
In private leagues, the Commissioner can decide whether to let the results stand, change rosters after the fact, or vacate the week. If the Commissioner chooses to vacate the week, there will be tools within the game to help facilitate the process.
For public leagues, results will stand as they are currently. We evaluated several options and, while we know that there will be users for which this is still problematic, we determined that this was the best option with likely the least impact to the least users.
That's pretty big.
You would have to be dense not to acknowledge the potential problems this may cause. Owners who set their lineups well in advance of 12 pm on Sunday will feel no remorse for rival managers who were too busy doing 'things' and having a 'life'. Vacating the week entirely would discombobulate potential playoff brackets and leave the more unhinged of us out there with a thirst for revenge.
For most playing in private leagues, these people are our friends. We will see them again, even when this fantasy football campaign ends. Whether those reunions are a scene of smiles and handshakes or a woeful tale for the police blotter will be determined in the coming days.

Wow! A fabulous fundraiser and luncheon at Country Club Of Hilton Head today with 160 tickets sold! The best part, all the women were animal lovers so we could talk about our pets! Patricia's and Village Golf did a fantastic fashion show which made me wish I had time to wear more than dog training clothes. This was a big fundraiser for SNAC including a silent auction.

Sometime during this coming week I expect to hear whether the Marine Corps. ruling on limiting testing of specific breeds to Delta or Canine Good Citizen, will be expanded to include SAFER, a more appropriate temperament test. IF it happens, this will be good news for our area, keeping many dogs and military in their existing homes rather than having to give up their beloved pets or move. To read the original article go to BT Friday, Sept. 4th, Pet Passions page.

There is a new a frightening designation within the supposed animal rescue community. They are not for profit organizations that go under the guise of rescue or shelter groups. While they do lots of good for many animals, we should question some of their motivations. They purport to be animal saviors but what are they really? I call them Puppy Mill Recyclers. They either rescue dogs from puppy mills or puppy mill owners unload sick or unwanted dogs on them. While a better option to euthanizing the dogs, the result puts to shame the concept of what reputable rescue groups do.

Only the third week into the water dog training season has seen some amazing things. Dakota, the Rottie, who couldn't swim two weeks ago is fetching toys with the other dogs. His rear was going down like the Titanic so a life vest gave him the confidence to swim with the big dogs. Today was Brody's first day in the water and although not thrilled, did manage to save his mommy. Katie, the Golden is a natural rescue girl and would live in the water given the chance. When everyone else went home she was still there asking, "where did everyone go"?

Kelly Osbourne's Tattoo Removal to Be Costly, Painful
In an effort to further reinvent herself, Kelly Osbourne has vowed to remove most of her 15 tattoos hoping to match her ink to her new glamorous style. In her weekly column for Closer magazine, Kelly said:
They covered a few of them with make-up last week for a scene in my new film Should've Been Romeo -- and I can't say I missed them!
Celebuzz spoke with Dr. Will Kirby of Dr. TATTOFF (get it?) in Beverly Hills about what's involved in laser tattoo removal. He tells us that while it is possible to successfully remove a tattoo without scarring, it is a relatively costly procedure that can take many visits.
In general, Kirby says, it costs 10 times more to remove a tattoo than it costs to ink that tattoo. TATTOFF charges $49 per square inch per visit for removal, an average price, but a tattoo can take between 5-15 visits to be fully removed.
Dr. Kirby describes the painful procedure as "tolerable," and adds that many people with tattoos find inking to be an enjoyable, intimate process and, as a result, might not mind the pain of removal. Black and red -- two colors of Kelly's -- are supposedly the easiest to remove.
The good news? The removal itself is a glorified zap, only taking 30 seconds.
It's a fortunate thing tattoos aren't forever because, in the words of Kelly:
I was miserable and I just went and got all these tattoos and I don't know why. One of them is a keyboard and I don't even know how to play a piano!
Will you miss Kelly Osbourne's tattooed look, or do you think she's outgrown it? Tell us in the comments section.

Alvis Hermanis-Directed Play Platonov to Be Honored at Theatertreffen in Berlin
Latvian theater director Alvis Hermanis's 2011 staging of Anton Chekhov's Platonov at Burgtheater Wien has been selected for an award at the annual Berliner Theatertreffen event as one of the best productions in a German language-speaking country.
Berliner Theatertreffen is one of the multitude of events that make up Berliner Festspiele, held each year in May. Out of 400 German language productions seen, ten are selected by an independent jury of theater critics for final consideration.
Hermanis, with his Platonov (stage design by Monika Pormale), has earned finalist honors for the first time.
In Latvia, Hermanis is the award-winning artistic director and chief director of the New Rīga Theater (Jaunais Rīgas teātris), where he has won numerous honors for his innovative work. Many of his plays explore the fine points of the Latvian character and psyche, often using innovative dramatic techniques, such as parts written entirely by the actors and based on actual people. His work has earned accolades at festivals throughout Europe.

New Viking Ring Fortress in Denmark...
1066 - The Battle for Middle Earth...
1066 - that infamous year in English history (which has later been called the end of the Viking Age).
King Edward the Confessor dies in 1066 and Vikings and Normans attack England for their claim to the throne.
The (mostly Norwegian) Vikings battle the English (including Viking settlers mostly from Denmark who first attacked this part of England exactly 200 years earlier and now were part of the population) first at Fulford and then at Stamford Bridge (both near York, then called Jorvik) while the Normans later attack at Hastings.
This 150 minute BBC production from 2009 tells the story of these battles from the English / Anglo-Saxon point of view.
Vikings - A Comprehensive Lecture by Kenneth W. Harl...
Professor Kenneth W. Harl presents a very comprehensive look at the Vikings.
36 lectures each 30 minutes long (each lecture is split into a playlist of 3 youtube videos below).
'As explorers and traders, the Vikings played a decisive role in the formation of Latin Christendom, and particularly of Western Europe. In this course, you will study the Vikings not only as warriors, but also in other roles for which they were equally extraordinary: merchants, artists, kings, raiders, seafarers, shipbuilders, and creators of a remarkable literature of myths and sagas.
Professor Kenneth Harl synthesizes insights from an astonishing array of sources: The Russian Primary Chronicle (a Slavic text from medieval Kiev), 13th-century Icelandic poems and sagas, Byzantine accounts, Arab geographies, annals of Irish monks who faced Viking raids, Roman reports, and scores of other firsthand contemporary documents.
Among the topics you will explore in depth are the profound influence of the Norse gods and heroes on Viking culture, and the Vikings' extraordinary accomplishments as explorers and settlers in Iceland, Greenland, and Vinland. With the help of archeological findings, you will learn to analyze Viking ship burials, runestones and runic inscriptions, Viking wood carving, jewelry, sculpture, and metalwork.
From 790–1066, virtually invincible Viking fleets fanned out across Europe, raiding, plundering, and overwhelming every army that opposed them.
By 1100, however, the Vikings had disappeared, having willingly shed their identity and dissolved into the mists of myth and legend. How did this happen, and how should we remember this formidable civilization that, for being so formative, proved so transient?' (From The Great Courses website).

Need Advice on Digiscoping Equipment
I have a Canon PowerShot S90 and I just ordered a Leupold Ventana SX-1 15-45x60mm Angled Spotting Scope. So, I am hoping that somebody here can tell me what else I will need to purchase in order to make these two pieces work together. Any comments, tips, advice, etc. would be greatly appreciated. I have never done digiscoping before.

Like yourself I've little or no experience in digiscoping apart from a couple of experimental Heath-Robinson lashups, which surprisingly did work to a degree, but weren't really practical. Since then I have a el cheapo Meade scope 20 - 60X60mm, and I'm presently making an adaptor to mount an old Canon A95 P&S. I had great results copying transparencies with this camera, so I believe it will perform nicely, I'm not too sure how well the scope will perform, it should at least give some experience. Hope this reply helps generate some response, I'll follow any replies with interest. Be patient though this board doesn't seem to generate a lot of activity. ... Jack |

The Camera to eyepiece adapter
The digiscoper in many cases must make his own adapter and achieve perfect optical axis centering in the process. One specific camera and eyepiece combination should be determined as a starting point. Once the centering has been obtained your rig will be ready for some decent results on the telescope of your choosing. My current scope is a 63x840mm Zeiss achro doublet objective mounted in a Celestron tube/focuser combination. The images attached were made with a Sony point and shoot set at 50mm(35mm equivelent) and then with the camera attached to the scope which was providing 35X magnification. A 3,500mm(refractive) camera lens would be 11.5 feet long to equal this magnification whereas the digiscope is 3 feet long. The images have all been identically cropped and shot from the same distance. I hope that this thread will encourage more of you to try this form of extreme telephoto photography.

Informational: Federal Court Arraignments
The United States Attorney's Office announced that during a federal court session in Missoula, on March 11, 2010, before U.S. Magistrate Judge Jeremiah C. Lynch, the following individuals were arraigned:
LUIS RAMIREZ-GUZMAN, a 29-year-old resident of Franklin, Kentucky, and JUAN RAMOS-ALVAREZ, a 24-year-old resident of Butte, appeared on charge of conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine and possession with the intent to distribute methamphetamine. They are currently detained. If convicted of these charges, they each faces possible penalties of a mandatory minimum of 10 years in prison and could be sentenced to life, a $4,000,000 fine and at least 5 years supervised release. Assistant U.S. Attorney Tara J. Elliott is the prosecutor for the United States. The investigation was a cooperative effort between Drug Enforcement Administration and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

"I am really surprised that up until now no one has written a review. This is a really good recipe which I haven used many times and people really love it. Please give it a try you will love it. The version I use only has one egg though. I give it 4 stars only because I don't think so many eggs are necessary. Very yummy!"

Hello, this is the code that I've put together by reading posts on here and elsewhere.
I have drawings in a library folder like "SMD_0201.dwg". The drawing consists of a rectangle and an invisible attribute.
I want to bring the appropriate block (dwg) into my drawing and place the references at the correct location and rotation with the correct attribute text.
When I use this, all seems to run fine (the rectangles show up placed perfectly and rotated), but there are no attributes. Then when I double pick on the block, it does not have a block name, it doesn't even have a definition.
BlockName = the path and name of the block
basename = block name
Public Sub InsertSMDComp(ByVal InsPt As Point3d, ByVal BlockName As String, ByVal basename As String, ByVal RefDes As String, _ ByVal rotation As Double, ByVal scale As Double) Dim smdTransMan As DatabaseServices.TransactionManager Dim smdTrans As DatabaseServices.Transaction Dim myDwg As Document Dim myBT As BlockTable myDwg = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument smdTransMan = myDwg.TransactionManager smdTrans = smdTransMan.StartTransaction myBT = myDwg.Database.BlockTableId.GetObject(OpenMode.ForRead) Dim myDB As Database myDB = myDwg.Database Try Using db As Database = New Database(False, True) db.ReadDwgFile(BlockName, IO.FileShare.Read, True, "") Dim BlkId As ObjectId BlkId = myDB.Insert(BlockName, db, True) Dim bt As BlockTable = smdTrans.GetObject(myDB.BlockTableId, OpenMode.ForRead, True) Dim btr As BlockTableRecord = smdTrans.GetObject(bt(BlockTableRecord.ModelSpace) , OpenMode.ForWrite, True) Dim bref As BlockReference bref = New BlockReference(InsPt, BlkId) bref.Rotation = rotation bref.ScaleFactors = New Scale3d(scale, scale, scale) btr.AppendEntity(bref) smdTrans.AddNewlyCreatedDBObject(bref, True) 'Set the Attribute Value Dim myAttColl As DatabaseServices.AttributeCollection Dim myEnt As DatabaseServices.Entity Dim myBTREnum As BlockTableRecordEnumerator myAttColl = bref.AttributeCollection myBTREnum = btr.GetEnumerator While myBTREnum.MoveNext myEnt = myBTREnum.Current.GetObject(OpenMode.ForWrite) If TypeOf myEnt Is DatabaseServices.AttributeDefinition Then Dim myAttDef As DatabaseServices.AttributeDefinition = myEnt Dim myAttRef As New DatabaseServices.AttributeReference myAttRef.SetAttributeFromBlock(myAttDef, bref.BlockTransform) myAttRef.TextString = RefDes myAttColl.AppendAttribute(myAttRef) smdTrans.AddNewlyCreatedDBObject(myAttRef, True) End If End While smdTrans.Commit() End Using Catch ex As Autodesk.AutoCAD.Runtime.Exception MsgBox(ex.ToString) End Try smdTrans.Dispose() smdTransMan.Dispose() End Sub
Solved! Go to Solution.
Solved! by norman.yuan. See the answer in context.
In your code, myBTR is ModelSpace block, NOT the block definition that you use to create the BlockReference!
You need to open the block definition then loop thorugh its AttributeDefinition. Something, after you created your BlockReference, like:
Dim bDef As BlockTableRecord=myTran.GetObject(myBT{baseName), OpenMode.ForRead)
If (bDef.HasAttributeDefinitions) Then
End If
The problem that you get a block definition without name created in the drawing, is because the block definition was inserted into this drawing with an INVALID block name. The offending code is:
BlkId = myDB.Insert(BlockName, db, True)
necause BlockName is a file name with a full folder path, which includes characters line ":","\" that are not allowed to be used in block name. When you manulally define block, AutoCAD validates the block name; while you inserts block with .NET API's Database.Insert(), if the block name contaims invalid characters, the block definition can still be inserted, the AutoCAD somehow gives the block definition an empty name, instead of raising an exception. I personally think this is an API bug.
Based on your sub's signature, I think you meant to use "baseName" as block name in the Insert() method.
However, you should follow AutoCAD convention to use block's file name as Block name, in general. So, you do not need to pass "baseName" to the subroutine.
you can get block file name from its full path name like this:
Dim bName As String=System.IO.Path.GetFileNameWothoutExtension(
Hi Norman,
Thanks, but when I try to use you suggestion, it tells me "GetFileNameWothoutExtension is not a member of 'System.IO.Path"
Above the sub, I do have:
Imports System.IO
Also, if I don't include the path, how does it know where to get the drawing?
Never mind, I got it.
Since I already have the "basename" I used that instead.
Using db AsDatabase = NewDatabase(False, True)
db.ReadDwgFile(BlockName, IO.FileShare.Read, True, "")
'Dim bName As String = System.IO.Path.GetFileNameWothoutExtension(BlockNa
Dim BlkId AsObjectId
BlkId = myDB.Insert(basename, db, True)
Ok, was too quick on that. The blocks come in, and they look good. They even have names and definitions (including an attribute definition) in the block editor. The only problem now is how to insert them and apply a text value to the attribute?
I thought this should work. it includes the value for the attribute textstring.
While myBTREnum.MoveNext myEnt = myBTREnum.Current.GetObject(OpenMode.ForWrite) If TypeOf myEnt Is DatabaseServices.AttributeDefinition Then Dim myAttDef As DatabaseServices.AttributeDefinition = myEnt Dim myAttRef As New DatabaseServices.AttributeReference myAttRef.SetAttributeFromBlock(myAttDef, bref.BlockTransform) myAttRef.TextString = RefDes myAttColl.AppendAttribute(myAttRef) smdTrans.AddNewlyCreatedDBObject(myAttRef, True) End If End While
Also, when I try to do a manual insert on one of these existing blocks, there is a problem.
When I pick a name from the list, and pick ok to insert, it pops up with "The specified file was not found. Specify the correct filename or select a valid block name."
Sorry, there was a typo:
GetFileNameWothout...() SHOULD HAVE BEEN GetFileNameWithout...()
If you had stepped through your code in debugging, you would have easily found out thta the code inside the "If...End If"
If TypeOf myEnt Is... Then
End If
is never reached, thus, no attribute reference is added to the BlockReference. Do not just run code and wonder why it is not work. Debugging teaches a lot.
The problem is with Enumerator "myBTREnum", which you declare as BlockTableEnumerator. Why you need to iterate through BlockTable for an AttributeDefinition that belongs to a BlockTablerecord? You'll never find an AttributeDefinition in BlockTable.
Instead, what you need is to interate through the BlockTableRecord your BlockReference is based on to find AttributeDefinition. The code would be like:
''btr is the BlockTableRecord
bref=New Blockreference(....)
For Each id As ObjectId in btr
If TypeOf myEnt Is AttributeDefinition Then
Dim myAttDef As AttributeDefinition = myEnt
''Create attribute reference based on the attributeDefinition
Dim attrRef As New Attributereference
End If
Debugging, and Debugging. If you step thorugh the code, or place a break point at where InsertSMDComp() is called, you simply examine what the block name and block file path is passed to this subroutine, then you probably can tell why you get that error message.
If the code passes a file name without full path, the .NET runtime would only examine the current application folder for the block file. Thta is probably why the message. You need either supply full path, or write code to search through AutoCAd supporting folders to find block file by only given file name.
Hi Norman, you, as always, have been very helpful. I did run through the code many, many times. I put in the breaks, even inside the If...End If block and it stopped there. I had watches going as well. That's why this was so confusing and frustrating.
The blocks in my library include a rectangle and a block attribute, but sometimes it sounds like I'm having to add a new attribute to the block that just got read in.
I had the code you mentioned above in regards to btr and bref:
Dim btr As BlockTableRecord = smdTrans.GetObject(bt(BlockTableRecord.ModelSpace), OpenMode.ForWrite, True) Dim bref As BlockReference bref = New BlockReference(InsPt, BlkId) bref.Rotation = rotation bref.ScaleFactors = New Scale3d(scale, scale, scale) btr.AppendEntity(bref)
Since bref was included in the If..End If, I thought it was using the attribute in the block.
When I look up some of these things, like enumerator, most of the help I find is really no help. All of the writers think their audience must be full time programmers with multiple degrees. I'm not one to just splice code together and cross my fingers hoping it will work. I search the Internet trying to understand what it is.
Thanks for all the time you've already spent helping me. I really do appreciate it.

Sixty years ago, Angus Wynne envisioned what was to be the nation's largest master-planned business Park. Wynne along with his staff planned and implemented a set of standards that developers throughout the country would soon envy and model after. Stringent deed restrictions, designated sign criteria, architectural review committees and ongoing control of these issues by a concerned property owners association known as the Great Southwest Association helped to assure major corporations that the Great Southwest Industrial Park would set the standard for industrial development. From the first deals in the late 1950s to the current developments, the Great Southwest Industrial area has been an unqualified success. The Great Southwest Association proved to be the lynchpin in the development plan for Great Southwest. By uniting property owners under one banner with a common goal, the association impacted change politically and economically. The cities of Grand Prairie and Arlington worked closely with the fledgling association and provided it with the necessary momentum to be successful. By controlling virtually every aspect of the Great Southwest Industrial Park, the owners and Great Southwest Corporation made GSW the premier industrial development in the nation.
Unfortunately as development of the Park proceeded, eventually the Great Southwest Corporation relinquished control over the development, participation in the Great Southwest Association lost its luster and the association began a downhill slide. While not dead, the association had little or no impact on what went on politically or economically within the boundaries of the Park. As a result, standards for property maintenance declined, as did the esthetics of the Park. Vantage Cos., Trammell Crow and other independent and institutional owners worked through the middle to late 1980's to resuscitate the Great Southwest Association. These major developers controlled the bulk of the property in the Park through investor partnerships or direct ownership and thus were able to instill and maintain some semblance of control on the development activity. But their world changed abruptly in 1986 when governmental legislation altered the face of the real estate market by revamping the tax laws governing real estate investments. Over the next three years, developers and institutional ownership became fragmented as partnerships dissolved or became insolvent ushering in a new tier of owners who had no long-term focus other than mere survival. Because of this lack of focus and no development leadership, the Great Southwest Association died from apathy. The early 1990's were tough times for the Great Southwest industrial area. Rental rates reached all time lows, property values declined and the national economy provided little hope of rebound. Infrastructure within GSW began to show significant degradation and because the municipalities were often as cash short as property owners, few efforts were instituted to rectify problems and more importantly, plan the future of GSW.
Tough times tend to strengthen those who can see them through or adapt to the changes necessary to survive. The GSW industrial area was too important to the tax base of both Grand Prairie and Arlington. Both cities implemented economic development strategies characteristic of the early to mid 1990s, and began a reassessment of the preservation and propagation of the Great Southwest as a great place to conduct business. What both parties concluded was that the Park was still an extremely viable and productive location wit the necessary infrastructure to accommodate new growth. They also concluded the central region of the Park needed substantial reinvestment of tax dollars to give the area a much needed face lift. At about the same time, a core group of veteran real estate players and owners, in conjunction with the economic development departments of the two cities, began to circulate the idea of bringing back the Great Southwest Association to help facilitate GSW's revitalization. The thought behind the Great Southwest Association was if it could be reborn and the membership could be built back up to measurable standards, it would provide an invaluable tool in the effort to preserve the value and marketability of GSW.
By involving the owners, tenants, investors and others whose livelihood depended on the success of GSW, the Association would attempt to reestablish the standards that were so integral to the original success of the Park. With this in mind, the move to form a new Great Southwest Association began to take place in early 1998. This core group of leaders has now begun to develop a vision for this reorganization. A board of directors for the new organization has been selected, and various committees have been formed. All agree the municipalities have much to gain from the efforts of this new organization, and officials with the cities of Grand Prairie and Arlington are giving generously of their time and municipal resources to the Association. Economic development, beautification and infrastructure committees were the first formed in order to provide the momentum and backbone for the new organization. Each of these committees has a common goal: To attain the wholesale involvement of each tenant, owner, investor and service provider in the GSW Association.
Welcome to the Great Southwest Industrial District Association The Association actively pursues all remedies to cause the prompt, efficient delivery of municipal and county services within the Great Southwest Industrial Park.
The Association, with the help of members, the cities of Grand Prairie and Arlington and Union Pacific Railroad, work diligently toward repair and upkeep of infrastructure within the Park, such as updated railroad crossings, wider approaches, turning lanes, and strive for less cluttered streets, byways, and deter trailer parking congestion.
The Association will develop and promote programs by and among owners and tenants to enhance the Industrial Park and maintain property values.
• Property value enhancements. • Tax dollar retention in the Park in the form of infrastructure repairs, upgrades and median upkeep. • A unified group to lobby municipalities for improvements within the Park • A forum for addressing and discussing concerns within the Park. • Development of the employment base through education and job training. • Development standards and deed restrictions within the Great Southwest Industrial Park.
Update High Speed Internet in the GSW Industrial Park Time Warner Cable Business Class has begun Fiber/Coax construction in the Grand Prairie portion of the Industrial Park.

Hometown Hero Saying goodbye to those we care for is never easy. This past August was no exception as we said goodbye to a wonderful person who believed that being of service to people and helping the community around him was not only his duty, but a privilege. William Forrest "Bill" Thorn died on August 24, and the citizens of Grand Prairie and the GSWIDA lost a true friend.
Before he was elected to the Grand Prairie City Council in 2005, Councilman Thorn had a long career working with helicopters. He maintained, flew, tested, sold and even herded cattle with helicopters before he focused on civic service. During his early years, Mr. Thorn became an Air Force helicopter mechanic, and later trained to be a pilot and completed 14 years in the military.
Mr. Thorn moved to North Texas to be a civilian contractor at Fort Wolters in Mineral Wells, where he was a test pilot. His story became very interesting when, after Mineral Wells, he was one of the first Helicopter Cowboys, herding cattle in South Texas! In 1968, he became a salesman for Bell Helicopter, where he helped introduce the JetRanger for police and medical service, and, in 1976, joined Aerospatiale in Grand Prairie, now American Eurocopter, where he was Director of Sales.
All of us remember Councilman Thorn and his endless hours of dedication to the GSWIDA and being an outspoken advocate for the businesses in the GSW Industrial Park. As one member remembered, Councilman Thorn mentioned on several occasions that people should send flowers to a loved one, rather than to his funeral. He was also a heartfelt supporter of Prairie Paws and animal adoptions!

In the meantime, though, all he gets to take is that big neon "Denver" sign atop the Pavilions -- a garish advertisement that another city department decided fit within Denver's parameters for its 1 percent for art program.
Three's a crowd: The Rocky Mountain News finally acknowledged in a November 18 correction that when a political candidate runs against a third-party candidate, he's not running unopposed -- no matter how pathetic the third-party candidate's chances may be. In its October 22 Voters' Guide, the paper had excluded all third-party candidates -- much to the dismay of those candidates and their supporters, who protested outside the Rocky three days later -- and focused exclusively on Republicans and Democrats, except for the Presidential race (and we all know how that turned out -- or didn't turn out, as the case may be). Adding insult to injury was a subsequent story claiming that Republican U.S. Representatives Bob Schaffer and Joel Hefley were running "unopposed." In reality, the two faced competition from Natural Law and Libertarian candidates and, in Schaffer's case, the American Constitution Party, as well.
Exit stage left: Last week's funeral services for Katherine "Kay" Schomp, who died on November 20 at the age of 83, were packed with an A-list crowd of Denver Democrats: Diana DeGette, Dick and Dottie Lamm, Bea Romer, Omar Blair, Evie Dennis and Susan Barnes-Gelt all came to pay their respects to Schomp, who, as the matriarch of a prominent Denver family, became an education and arts activist and a political powerhouse in her own right. There were warm speeches from former colleagues recalling many of Schomp's accomplishments, including her tireless efforts to create the Denver School of the Arts (the school's jazz band performed during the service). Also noted were her ten years on the Denver school board and her work to ease racial tensions while DPS was being desegregated. But even though he had called the family and asked to be allowed to speak at the Saturday service (his name was even listed on the program), Mayor Wellington Webb was nowhere to be seen at the Montview Boulevard Presbyterian Church. Then, just ten minutes before the funeral was to begin, the Schomps -- whose name is well-known in Colorado because of the auto dealership founded by Kay's late husband, Ralph Schomp -- received a message from the mayor saying he wouldn't be able to make it. His whereabouts were a mystery until one funeral attendee left early to make the opening scene of Tantalus at the Denver Performing Arts Complex -- and there was the mayor, settling in for the all-day theater marathon.
So the mayor got to hear countless eulogies for ancient Greek warriors, but none for a woman who played a heroic role during Denver's own years of civil strife.

Our monthly E-newsletter keeps you informed.
If you work in the New York metro area, you know there's a big push toward sustainability - to reuse, recycle and reduce environmental impact. In fact, by 2014, green jobs are expected to comprise 45% of design and construction projects.
What does this mean to you? It means that your business is exposed to emerging environmental liability exposures that you never had to worry about in the past.
For example …
As a contractor, you face environmental risk management issues every day. For instance, anytime you excavate, you could encounter an unknown underground storage tank. Anytime, you demolish a building, you could uncover lead-based paint or asbestos. And, when you build, there's always the risk of mold formation. All of these pollution liability exposures continue to exist, but now you also have to worry about a new environmental liability exposure – the risk of being involved in a green project that fails to perform as promised.
Before you bid or contract for a green project, consult the green construction and environmental risk management experts at Milbrandt Insurance.
We've protected NewYork tri-state area contractors with tailored construction insurance for several decades, so it's only natural that we've become one of the city's few environmental risk management experts. We proactively protect contractors and building suppliers with unmatched environmental liability expertise:
Why take chances with environmental or pollution liability? Contact us today for a complimentary environmental risk management assessment.

Racing is about beating your own targets
In 1991, I was 31 years old and working on engine performance development and exhaust systems in particular. I was extremely lucky to be part of the team that went to Le Mans, but I remember that when we won, I didn't immediately feel excited. It was only later, when I was looking at the 787B back in the garage, that the feeling began to sink in.
Working in a racing team is a lot more demanding than it seems. We worked late into the night during the development stage, and for the race itself, we were awake for over 40 hours. This fatigue tends to dull your nerves. For me, the greatest satisfaction and pleasure comes from being able to directly experience and share the excitement of the fans.
Mazda's victory in 1991 was by no means lucky. I somehow feel that, at the very end, the gods rewarded us for all our hard work. The road to victory was tough, but we managed to maintain a belief in ourselves, and I think this provided important motivation. I also feel that the bitter disappointment from the year before (1990) also helped to drive us forward.
For all of us involved on the R&D side, I think the number of laps we completed was actually more important than winning the race. Racing is about beating your opponents, but more than that, it is also about beating your own targets.
The continual evolution of Mazda's advanced technology
Mazda is famous for being the only company in the world to mass produce rotary engines, and many engineers joined Mazda specifically to work on it. However, our passion and dreams are not limited to only the rotary, and we also continue to push forward with our other engines. This ambition is part of Mazda's DNA and it pulses in our veins today as strongly as ever.
With the new SKYACTIV TECHNOLOGY, we began by setting aims that were so high we honestly did not know if it would be possible to succeed. However, the development project leader, Mitsuo Hitomi (Executive Officer and General Manager of the Powertrain Development Div.) had analyzed the targets and found them to be theoretically possible. "I didn't just dream them up," he said, "they are definitely possible." Our engineers all came together in pursuit of these challenging targets, and eventually we found the answers.
And even though we have successfully developed the new engines, we are not sitting still. Everyday, we work to make them even better. I feel this determination is the secret behind Mazda's new advanced technologies. It is always difficult to accomplish something that no one else has, but Mazda never gives up the fight.
"Not knowing when to give up" is one of Mazda's strengths.

Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

Even though the jobless rate fell below 8% for the first time since 2009, young people are still working less than other age groups. The Atlantic has an articlethat says young men are the reason the labor force is shrinking–and that it isn't just a tough economy that's forcing them to do so.
"The male rate [of participation in the labor force], on the other hand, has been declining since the 1950's." [The Atlantic]
They give a few reasons as to why they think this trend is continuing:
"This could be for a variety of factors, from men deciding it's not worth bothering to apply for a job at the local grocery store, to men more focused on their education with unskilled work harder to find, to those living at home who decide there's no need for spending money when so much entertainment is free online." [The Atlantic]
So what do you say, guys? We've heard from dudes around town who say that the idea of being a stay-at-home dad is an appealing idea. How does that sound to you? The female rate of participation has been growing steadily since the 1960's — is it finally become a more equal playing field?

NuMat Technologies, the winner of the 2012 National Clean Energy Business Plan Competition, has been making enormous progress toward building their company during the last year. Over the course of the last year, the company fully executed an exclusive license with Northwestern University, was awarded funding through ARPA-E for the MOVE Initiative (to develop methane storage materials) and has moved into a new research facility at Illinois Science and Technology Park. And to top it all off, NuMat recently closed a $2M seed round with private investors.
The round was led by an angel network, the GOOSE Society of Texas, with participation of the Owl Investment Group. Both the GOOSE Society and Owl Investment Group are sponsors of prizes in the Rice Business Plan Competition, and in 2012 NuMat Technologies took top honors at the Rice Business Plan Competition, walking away with both the GOOSE and Owl Investment prizes. The company, due to long time horizons necessary for nanotech, has stated that it has decided against raising money from traditional venture funds that have relatively short investment horizons.
In addition to its monetary success, the NuMat Technologies team has doubled their team size and they have stated that they will likely triple it in the next 12 months. The company is working toward developing its first commercially available product within the next year and is currently making determinations about its first market of entry.
The U.S. Department of Energy applauds all of its success and looks forward to hearing more about their success in the future!

Hi Sharon Well here we are about to start the New Year of 2007. I am still searching for the same info that you were several years ago. Today, I have found, posted on the internet, the combined passenger list of 1637 JOHN & DOROTHY and THE ROSE. Apparently they were ships that sailed together from England to America. There iI located the the name JOHN PERS, wife & family. Elsewhere his wife has been noted as Elizabeth Trull Stoker (not Stocker). I do not know if the TRULL is a family name or if she had been previously married. Did you ever find any additional info for either John Pers or Elizabeth Trull Stoker?

December 22, 2013
Solid bag, spacious but still fits in a gym locker. the pouch that is used to cover the bag for me is pointless and it also takes up some room in the main compartment. That would be my only beef. Oh and no place to quickly store water bottle on the outside but that's no biggie. Zippered pocket have two zippers which is nice.

Its name seems to be appropriate — "first."
The First Presbyterian Church in Valparaiso will be first in offering a Veterans Day celebration at the Memorial Opera House. Along with the Hobart High School band, the church's music ministries will present their sixth annual patriotic celebration at 3 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 10, to honor all those who have served, or are serving in, the nation's armed forces.
There is no cost, but a free will offering will be divided between the band and music ministries. Please call 464-4985 on Mondays or Wednesdays for more information.
The church will also be first in hosting the Valparaiso Theatrical Company's performance of "Specter of Treason — the Oswald Trial."
It is almost surprising to realize that this is the 50th anniversary of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. The horror of that day for any of us who were glued to our radios or TV sets will never totally disappear.
And the shock of having Lee Harvey Oswald, the assassin, shot and killed by Jack Ruby robbed our country of having Oswald reveal the reason for his heinous act. Was he a hired gun? Did he act alone? Was he insane? Was he full of hate? Was Jack Ruby sent to make sure he never talked?
The theatrical group is giving us the opportunity to render the final verdict on Oswald's guilt with the production of J.E. Ballantyne's play. There are over 50 actors involved, and the audience will serve as the jury in this play with four different endings, depending on the verdict of the "jury."
Steve Zana and Craig Kozora are the directors for this unique experience commemorating this historic event that brought this nation to its knees. The play is family friendly for teenagers, and it will definitely be a moment in history for them — all of us — to "be there" when our president is shot.
The volunteer cast represents all of Northwest Indiana, and they have been rehearsing for this unparalleled drama for months. Tickets are only $10, with $6 of every ticket donated back to benefit others.
Each performance, a different group will be designated to receive the donations from that night, including 500 Turkeys, Coats for Kids and Sacred Transformation, which converts scars from burns into smoother skin through tattoos.
There are some "specials," as well. Performances on Nov. 14 and 21 will be only $5 for students, and on Nov. 22, there will be a historical discussion after the play when hors d'oeuvres and soft drinks will be served.
Show times are 8 p.m. (2 p.m. Sundays) Nov. 14, 15, 16, 17, 21, 22, 23 and 24. The church is located at 3401 Valparaiso St., where the performances will take place. Don't miss this most meaningful historical event! For more information, please call 309-6794, or go to valparaisotheatricalcompany. org.
Just a reminder: Halloween is just around the corner, and there will be lots of little ghosts and goblins running helter skelter on the nights their town has trick-or-treating, so please be very aware and extra cautious when you are driving so that they all get back home safely to dig into those delicious treat bags.
Then I hope you have a great day because you deserve it. Thanks for reading. Fly your flag.

It's been about a year since I started having flashes and insomnia. I've been using progesterone cream for about 9 months which have stopped all hot flashes and I can thankfuly sleep like a log again. My problem now is about 4 months ago, my hands began to ache and my knees are always tingling or have a tight achey feeling.
Does anyone else have these symptoms and are they caused by menopause? And if so, why isn't the progesterone cream helping with those symptoms? Thanks for any input!! Deby |
Follow-Up Postings:
I've answered my own question. About 4 months ago, I began to take calcium supplements, as well as drinking about 2 cups of milk a day. I eat well, lots of veggies and all. I started having spasms in my neck, shoulders and back, as well as the hand and knee aches. My chiropractor noticed how hard and tight my muscles were and asked if I was taking calcium supplements. Well come to find out that calcium helps muscles to contract. I was overloading on calcium thinking it would ward off osteoporosis. I stopped all calcium supplements and milk and I am now pain free in my neck, shoulders, back, knees and hands!! I continue to eat healthy and take a multivitamin and exercise. I have to remember that loading up on all these supplements may not always be a good thing. My chiropractor and massage therapist also said that if you must take calcium that magnesium should also be taken. Magnesium counteracts calcium in that it relaxes the muscles. Deby |

Get touched by our countdown of the sweetest, tartest moments from ABC's dramedy about the pie maker whose hands can raise the dead, then take our polls and tell us how the sophomore season should play out
Ned (Lee Pace), who has the power to bring the dead back to life (and then back to death again) with one touch, angered his undead love interest Chuck (Anna Friel) when he revealed he had killed her dad. Plus, Aunt Lily confessed to Olive that she's Chuck's mom, not her aunt.

James Marsden's Ogle-Worthy Appearance on 'Modern Family'
By Samantha Henderson
Our latest coverboy James Marsden made a sexy (How could it be anything other than?) cameo on this past season of Modern Family as Cam and Mitchell's new hippie neighbor with no sense of boundaries and a penchant for hot tubs.
Although he confesses, in our cover story, "I'm actually less comfortable being the smoldering hot guy," which he says, smolderingly, natch, we don't quite buy it. Next up he's playing JFK in Lee Daniels's The Butler (which also has Oprah doing a sexy scene).
Since everybody needs a daily ab- and cheekbone-induced drool sesh, so here's yours for today. Or whenever. Feel free to turn into a 16-year-old girl, à la Cam. We did.

Sundance 2012 Review: 'Filly Brown' Spits Emotion, But Loses Focus With Overly Complicated Narrative
Film Festivals By Allison Loring on January 22, 2012 | Be the First To CommentWhen it comes to family loyalty it is hard to turn your back on those you can't help but love unconditionally, even if they disappoint you at every turn. Maria, aka Filly Brown (Gina Rodriguez), has become the matriarch of her house with a mother (Jennie Rivera) in jail who left behind not only, Filly but her younger sister Lupe (Chrissy Fit) and her father (Lou Diamond Phillips) as well. This responsibility has clearly left Filly with a tough exterior, but never bitter, as Rodriguez is able to seamlessly transition from a sharp-tongued fighter to a naïve young girl. It is clear from the onset (and comments from those in Filly's life) that her mother is bad news, but as her daughter Filly can't (or won't) see that and when her mother asks for her help, Filly agrees without question. This promise becomes the catalyst that drives Filly through the rest of the film and effects the decisions that she makes to get the funds her mom seems to so desperately need.
