Diffraction microtomography in coherent light is foreseen as a promising technique to image transparent living samples in three dimensions without staining. Contrary to conventional microscopy with incoherent light, which gives morphological information only, diffraction microtomography makes it possible to obtain the complex optical refractive index of the observed sample by mapping a three-dimensional support in the spatial frequency domain. The technique can be implemented in two configurations, namely, by varying the sample illumination with a fixed sample or by rotating the sample using a fixed illumination. In the literature, only the former method was described in detail. In this report, we precisely derive the three-dimensional frequency support that can be mapped by the sample rotation configuration. We found that, within the first-order Born approximation, the volume of the frequency domain that can be mapped exhibits a missing part, the shape of which resembles that of an apple core. The projection of the diffracted waves in the frequency space onto the set of sphere caps covered by the sample rotation does not allow for a complete mapping of the frequency along the axis of rotation due to the finite radius of the sphere caps. We present simulations of the effects of this missing information on the reconstruction of ideal objects.

Hello, I'm either being blind or just plain stupid! I have looked all over the forum and on google but had no luck in finding a guide or an info on EGR removal on a 2.5tdi 163. What will this do, will it improve anything or do nothing attal. Last engine I did this on was a 2.0 zetec . Any help would be great!
Bump. Must be someone who has done this. I want to clean the valve as my car is approaching 145k. I can remove 2 of the bolt but the other two are impossible to get to. I cleaned our 2.0tdi one yesterday and that was a fiddle even though it had about 5 mm of gunk all around the inside of it. The car runs better and isn't throwing out black smoke anymore. Just need to know how people have removed a 2.5tdi one! Cheers
You can blank it off. I did this with mine - purchased a blanking plate from ebay for about £4. I noticed the fact there was a lot less soot, both on the back of the car and in the air-intakes, the engine picks-up a little better too. Only downside I have noticed is that the engine takes slightly longer to warm up.
Yeah I blanked my egr rubber pipe off of a day just to see what differance it would make and the car pulled a lot harder just doing that but as said it throws up the cel on the dash, I hate warning lights. Even if a bulb is out or washer fluid needs topping up I have to do it immediately as I hate the yellow warnings! Haha. So all I want to do is remove the thing and clean it. If its anything like our a3 its will be thick with soot and carbon but I cannot for the life of me work out how to get to the bottom alen key bolts.
I have also blanked mine off, when I remapped it, had the egr removed from map.NO LIGHTS on dash! Drives so much better! got over 200 BHP on the RR (155 standard)

"Shake it!" your headset blares as you push on the jet's throttle. Your nose tips, the ground becomes a wall, and you're diving in a last-ditch effort to lose the fighter behind you. Its shots go wide and it swoops overhead, leaving you to level out just as the radio tower ends the dogfight: "Knock it off, knock it off." With your wheels back on the ground, you step out of the simulator's cockpit and catch your friend?s eye: Missed me.
At Flightdeck Flight Simulation Center, aerial battles between friends take place on the ground. The screens of nine authentic military fighter-jet simulators broadcast the same views a pilot might see while soaring at 600 knots. Though the simulators remain on the ground, all the controls, radio orders, and UFO weigh stations mirror those encountered on an actual flight. People may come in with a friend or with a party, where guests and friends target one another during virtual missions, from the introductory Fox-1 experience to the three-hour Viper-1 course, which covers advanced topics such as missile avoidance. After team-building events, participants can even receive personalized dog tags as souvenirs.
Flightdeck Flight Simulation Center also has an exact replica of a Boeing 737-700 cockpit. Inside, a 180-degree wraparound screen transports pilots to airport runways from around the world. Commercial-flight drills present common challenges such as piloting through turbulence and wiping spilled coffee off the controls, testing visitors between their takeoff and landing.

Spiced Bamboo's personal chef guides groups through two-hour cooking classes that demonstrate how to prepare two customized courses step-by-step. Clients contact the epicurean educator to schedule a class and discuss the desired cuisine, which can include dishes from the chef's specialty menu or more personalized fare, such as a turducken filled with peanut butter. Foursomes can learn to sear scallops for a spinach salad drizzled with pomegranate vinaigrette and peppered with jicama, dried blueberries, and macadamia nuts, or explore meaty entrees such as the Vietnamese caramel pork with coconut-infused jasmine rice and spicy asparagus. Vegetarian-friendly options are also available, and, for an additional fee, culinary companions can transform gourmet menu items such as lobster into plates of creamy ravioli with sea-urchin sauce.
Southern California's warm temperatures draw in thousands of visitors every year. Unfortunately, they also attract unwanted guests?pests such as cockroaches, ants, and earwigs. That's where Scout Pest Management technicians come in. Here, they prowl the premises to track down and eradicate common household pests. Scout's techs also free homes from the onslaught of a variety of other animals, such as rabbits and birds, using humane traps that ensnare the wildlife without harming it.
In addition to abolishing pests from residential premises, the Scout Pest Management team has a long stand tradition of aerating and fertilizing lawns. Back when the company started in the home-services industry, lawn care remained their top priority; today skilled crews continue to enhance lustrous lawns through simple, no-fuss programs. Though all the chemicals used are safe, the techs also offer lawn care services in which they use low-impact and organic chemicals.

During the week I tend to eat at 6am and 6pm only. Is this sort of like IF?
Lunch is so not worth it. lol
Yes, some people think it's only all at once, but you are "intermittently fasting". I follow a version of that too, basically if I'm hungry I eat, and the rest of the time I'm fasting. I usually only eat once or twice a day myself. It takes a while to digest that food!
What are you guys typically eating during those 2 meals? Are your calories still adding up? How much success have you had from this as far as weightloss goes? Still trying to lose about 15lbs and it seems that even with the lower carbs it isn't happening so I am trying to figure out if there is something else I should try.
I'd say that not eating while feeling evidently hungry qualifies as IF as long as we don't go into starvation mode
Every saint has a past and every sinner has a future. -Oscar Wilde
"The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who have not got it." -George Bernard Shaw
"The trouble with jogging is that the ice falls out of your glass." -Martin Mull
Lindsay, I am down to my last 15 - 20 lbs and I find that the ONLY way to kick it is with IF for 8 - 24 hrs, zero alcohol and fasted workouts.
For my cals, I don't worry. I eat until satisfied and only intermittently fast. If I fasted longer than 16 hrs at a time, for several days on end, then I would worry.
Personally, those are the methods that work for me.
My issues are with my brain on the weekends ("I've been good, so I deserve this", yada, yada, yada...psychological crap that I buy into...)
SS, how do we determine we don't go into a starvation mode? Reason I ask, I IF regularly but I want to make sure I'm not going into a starvation mode. My calories are all over the place, sometimes low, sometimes high.
maba thats a great question, I have no idea
Every saint has a past and every sinner has a future. -Oscar Wilde
"The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who have not got it." -George Bernard Shaw
"The trouble with jogging is that the ice falls out of your glass." -Martin Mull
I can't lay my hands on reference I have, but fasting mode starts at somewhere around 14 hours and starvation mode at roughly 2 days. To get the most out of IF you want to sit in the fasting mode for as long as possible.
Eating at 12pm and 6pm is much better than eating at 6pm and 6am if you can do it. This is how the fast 5 diet works.

A business parable about how to create a start-up that won't trap you when you want to sell it. According to John Warrillow, the number one mistake entrepreneurs make is to build a business that relies too heavily on them. Thus, when the time comes to sell, buyers aren't confident that the company-even if it's profitable-can stand on its own. To illustrate this, Warrillow introduces us to a fictional small business owner named Alex who is struggling to sell his advertising agency. Alex turns to Ted, an entrepreneur and old family friend, who encourages Alex to pursue three criteria to make his business sellable:

"Good content, Very bad narration"
I'd recommend buying the real book--not listening to this audio book.
I'd avoid him as much as possible if I can.
It was hard to digest the content when you are distracted by the whiny voice that stops/starts without context of the whole sentence or paragraph.
"Narrator is awful!"
Ex of voice: Helloh thereuh. How are youuuah? Wellah. Iam fiynuhhh. Thank youahh.
The entire book is like this!!!
The way the narrator speaks is the way they make fun of public speakers. A voice that is comically used in a way that we feel the person is full of themselves, having bloated sentences that extend the last letters of the word. At first I thought it was a joke, then I knew it was legit and it is VERY hard to listen to. Very obnoxious. Hard to listen to! Preview it and see if you can handle it. I wish I had...
The book is fine, the narrator blows it.
"Dare I say it... Better then E-Myth"
I have over 280 Audible titles 95% of theme are business\personal Development related and I review very or rate very few as many are the same after awhile. This was a stand out title and now has become an absolute favorite Top 3 by far. I just finished my 1st listen and I will be going back over and over again. Anyone is business to sell or not should own this book. There are many easy to follow actionable items that will give great freedom in your business. If E-myth is the entry class this is the advanced course.
"Narration needs to be redone."
I was very excited to get into the content of this book, however, the reader is so impossible to listen to, I can't get past 5 minutes at a time. The way he speaks is such a joke, I'm absolutely impressed the producers of the audiobook actually thought this was a good idea. Ouch. I've never had to write a review like this!
I couldn't get past the first few chapters, so I'm moving to the eBook as I still would like to read the book.
"Surprisingly informational with good tips"
I wasn't sure I would like a fictional company story and tips weaved into this format. It went into good detail and the expert friend, Ted, had good and fairly complex tips. The fictional company was fairly realistic and I liked the part when the seller was fumbling over why he was selling to potential buyers.
The narrator is a little pole smokey. I have heard him on one other audio book and his delivery is smarmy. The end of most of his sentences sound like questions. You might want to listen to the 5 min sample to make sure you can handle this narrator.
The content is good for all level of business owners.
"Get past the Narrator and it's Excellent!"
I read a few comments about the narrator but chose to listen anyway. The same guy reads Napoleon Hill's "Think and Grow Rich". This is an excellent book for an entrepreneur looking to sell their business. The story is well written and the points at the end are very valuable. The next release should have a different narrator.
"Great content but HORRIBLE nattation."
If you're deaf you might be able to cope.
I couldn't tell you, I couldn't absorb the content.
The narrators voice is incredibly difficult to listen to and completely distracts from the content.
He uses voices that are excessively overblown and has a weird twang that he uses at the end of almost every sentence.
The end of every sentence.
I don't often write scathing reviews, but the narration of this book REALLY REALLY destroyed what is otherwise a good book.
"I actually LIKE the narration..."
The narrator has a very signature style and it made the so-so story of Built to Sell more listenable. In fact, this is one of the few audiobooks I've listened to twice.
However, judging by the other remarks, I guess Erik's narration is a love it or hate it proposition. I personally thought it was great.
Yes, but with the caveat that the book is a little unrealistic in how fast a business can ramp up revenues (especially a logo design firm).
Better than E-Myth by a country mile.
"Detailed and actionable quick listen"
Great book, lots of insight
I'm happy to have spent a credit on this title it offers a lot of insight into where I want to take my company
"Great Advice"
I love stories because they engage the right and left brain simultaneously. This book contains a mixture of engaging stories with great insights.
"Expert advice for building a scalable business"
If you're looking to develop a scalable business and an asset you can sell, this is THE book that you need to read.
It shares practical advice to help develop systems that design business owners out of the day-to-day operations of their business and ensure consistency when dealing with customers. Applying this to my business, has paid for the book a thousand times over.
"If you own your own business definitely read this."
Engaging, easy listen
The case study business the author uses is really engaging and reflects aspects of so many businesses, stages of business growth and the day to day issues small business owners have to deal with.
This book is just the right length, an easy listen thanks to the engaging narrator, and an extremely solid case stud laid out by the author covering all aspects of a small business going through stages of growth. A must read for any business owner, even if you're not looking to sell your business it is still incredibly inspirational. I went straight into work and have my team a presentation on my vision for the future of our business!!
"Exit Strategy"
This book really highlights the importance of having an exit strategy. So many of us take no notice of when people say have an exit strategy but this book points of why you need one. Written as a story so it is easy to follow along and listen to
There are no listener reviews for this title yet.

At a passing glance, the "outdoor classroom" at the Calgary chapter of the Canadian National Institute for the Blind looks like pretty much any playground in any neighbourhood.
It was one of the last bastion's of male exclusivity, where membership was limited to those with XY chromosomes. It outlasted the military and hung on just as long as the Augusta National Golf Club, until finally, in 2012, that hurdle was removed and the first female was included in their storied ranks.

We were traveling down south with our two dogs and stopped for the night. . There was a $70 pet fee which I thought was a little expensive, but the room was very roomy with a small kitchenette and best of all very quiet ...we didn't have to worry about our dogs waking everyone because of unfamilar noises.
The room was very clean, bed very comfortable and a great shower. Wish the weather had been warmer as there is a wonderful patio area with gas fireplace and firepit. Breakfast was ok too.
