The Barrett-Jackson Collector Car Auction gets underway today with the first 150 cars expected to cross the auction block. This is the 800 pound gorilla of car auctions and the prices of cars sold at this auction could help us forecast the collector car market for the rest of the year. While we've already mentioned the star Corvettes like The Last Corvette, the Dual 1963 SWC Tankers and the 1967 Yenko Corvette, there is actually a wide variety of Corvettes that will be available. In fact, 150 Corvettes are expected to be sold in the next few days raging from a 1953 Convertible to a 2003 Safety Pace Car.
Speed Channel (check your local listings) will have coverage throughout the week with most of the action happening in primetime on the weekdays and afternoons through primetime on the weekends. You can get a list of the lot numbers scheduled for each day so if there is a particular car you are interested in, you can probably see it auctioned. The Star Corvettes that we mentioned above as well as most of the other star cars are scheduled for primetime on Saturday.
CorvetteBlogger.com will have continuing coverage of the Barrett-Jackson Collector Car Auction as well as a roundup of the results as they become available.

2006 European Corvette Sales
by Keith Cornett on January 11, 2007
The Corvette brand continues to be well accepted in GM's European Market. Sales totaled 1,257 Corvettes for 2006, which was on par with 2005 Sales. These numbers are significant to GM as prior to the C6 model, yearly Corvette sales were in 300-400 range.
Part of the GM strategy for introducing the Corvette to European buyers has been the building of a number of specialized dealerships for Cadillac/Corvette/Hummer. In 2006, Cadillac saw 22% growth in sales while Hummer H2 and H3 Sales tripled to 1,848.

DecodeThis: Your Online Corvette VIN Decoder
by Keith Cornett on October 30, 2006
One of the many questions I constantly get (and love!) is how to decode a Corvette's Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). The VIN can contain some interesting information including Body Style, Engine Size and if the Corvette may be one of a select number of special edition Corvettes. Early Corvette VIN's contained mostly just the body style numbers. Beginning in 1972, the engine option was coded into the VIN, and in 1978, the first special edition Corvette, the Pace Car Replica had its own digit in the VIN.
An interesting website called Decodethis.com has put together a search engine for VIN's that will decode your VIN if it appears in their database. Currently VIN's for 1953-1974 Corvettes are available, with more coming soon. The site is also accessible from mobile phones and PDA's, so if say you are at a show or auction, just tap the VIN into their search and voila! Instant results! The site also decodes Mustangs, Camaros, Firebirds, Chryslers and more.
When making any classic car purchase, knowledge is power. In today's muscle car climate where imitators are cloning Corvettes faster than you can say Dolly, the VIN is where to start the documentation process.

Five Factors That Drive Corvette Values – Options
by Keith Cornett on October 25, 2006
This is the third of our five-part series where we take an in depth look at the factors that drive Corvette values. Last week, we looked at the Quantity and Condition Factors. Today, our attention turns to Options. The options list on a model year can change the value of a Corvette considerably. As we discuss the Options Factor and how it relates to Corvette values, we must understand that this factor is very much affected by the Quantity factor. Everybody loves having options and some have more than others. But in the world of Classic Corvettes, he who has the rare options, wins. Why? Back then, a Corvette with more options cost more to build. Buying a Corvette in the 1960's wasn't like buying a Corvette today. Today, you can order a package that has a preselected amount of performance or convenience options. Many buyers couldn't afford a loaded Corvette, and Chevrolet wasn't building loaded Corvettes unless they were ordered that way. Some options were very expensive for the time and could significantly raise the price. For example, in 1967, the air conditioning option (RPO C60) cost an additional $412.90. Throw in a big block engine (RPO L71), heavy duty brakes(RPO J56), close-ratio transmission (RPO M20 or M21), a radio (RPO U69) and side-exhaust (RPO N14) and the price just went from a base of $4,388 to $6,000 – an increase of over 35%. Perhaps the main option that determines the value of a Corvette is the Engine option. Starting in 1957, Corvettes were optioned with a number of engines that are generally categorized as small blocks, big blocks and fuel injected. Currently, a 1967 with a 427 ci 435 hp engine can bring well over $100,000 while a small block 327 ci 300 hp model might be priced in the $40-$50,000 range. 1974 was the last year of the big block and in 1975, the number of options dropped to just two. Starting in 1984 with the introduction of the C4 generation, Corvettes came with just one engine. In 1996, the final year of the C4, a one year limited option was a choice between the LT1 (350 ci 300hp) and the LT4 (350 ci 330hp). It could be ordered in any of the 1996 Corvettes, so long as they had the 6-Speed manual transmission. Other important options are transmissions (auto or manual) and comforts such as Air Conditioning, Power Steering, Tilt/Tele Steering Wheel Columns and appearance options like Wheels or Side Exhaust. Because Corvettes were base priced without any real options, a buyer might have added just a couple which resulted in low penetration of many of the options we take for granted today. Going back to 1967 model year, Air Conditioning was ordered on just 16.5% of Corvettes built. Just 25% had Power Steering and only 10.5% opted for the Tilt Tele Steering Column. Sometimes a Corvette may have some extra value because of an option not included. Throughout the 60's and 70's, Corvettes were sold with an option that removed an option. Confused? Many cars destined for the race track didn't need radios or heaters so options called the Radio Delete or Heater Delete were selected and the car was built without the radio or heater and the buyer received a credit. Exterior and Interior colors are also classified as an option and a Corvette with a rare color combination can add value to its price. Since 1954, Chevrolet has offered a variety of factory available exterior and interior colors. Because there are records that tell us how many Corvettes were manufactured with a given paint scheme, we can determine the rarity of the color. Having a popular color can also boost value. Red has always been a popular color for Corvettes, so much so that the phrase appears in song (Little Red Corvette) and as a title of book documenting the building of the C5 Corvette (All Corvettes Are Red). Some options are desired due to the inherent design of the model year as opposed to what was put on car. Consider the 1963 Corvette Coupe with its "Split Window†design. When built, Corvette's Chief Engineer Zora Arkus-Duntov hated the design and argued about the limited visibility the split plane caused. As a result, the 1964 Coupe's rear window was changed to just one single glass panel. Today, the 1963 Split Window is sought after for that option. Another type of Option is the Special Edition Corvettes. For the most part these are Corvettes that have an added package of options bundled together. The first special editions to be offered appeared in 1963 in the form of the Z06 which contained a 360 hp fuel injected engine, heavy duty brakes and the famous 36 gallon fuel tank. Perhaps the most famous and heavily collected special edition was the 1978 Indianapolis 500 Pace Car Replica. Chevrolet marked the occasion by building just over 6,500 Pace Cars, one for each Chevy dealer plus some extras. Public demand for these special corvettes was huge and many were purchased and then immediately placed in storage. It is not uncommon to see a 1978 Pace Car Corvette for sale with mileage in just the hundreds or low thousands. Chevrolet also marked milestones as special editions, again the first being the 25th Anniversary model produced in 1978. While all Corvettes were considered 25th Anniversary models, Chevrolet put together a special package of options, colors and special emblems. Anniversary models also include the 1988 Corvette (35th Anniversary) that was White, the 40th Anniversary Model which was a dark red called Ruby Red, and the 50th Anniversary Corvette in 2003 that was also Red (Anniversary Red). Other Special Editions included a package to commemorate the end of the three separate generations. In 1982 and 1996, Chevrolet produced a "Collector's Editionâ€, again essentially a standard Corvette except for special paint and badges, and in 2004, a Commemorative Edition that was LeMans Blue and contained the first Carbon Fiber hood available on a production Corvette. A great source of learning about options that came on each Corvette Model is The Corvette Black Book by Michael Antonick. In the Black Book as it is commonly referred to, Michael breaks out the each of the available options with its RPO (Regular Production Option) code, the original option price and the quantity produced.

About the Five Factors Series
by Keith Cornett on October 19, 2006
I was pulled out of town unexpectedly earlier this week on a family emergency. I had originally planned to post this series over five consecutive days. However, they are a tad wordy so I have decided to break them up a bit. I am planning to post the Options and Originality Factors next week and then should be able to conclude the series with a look at Market Forces the following week. Thanks – Keith
Five Factors That Drive Corvette Values – Condition
by Keith Cornett on October 17, 2006
This is the second of our five-part series where we take an in depth look at the factors that drive Corvette values. Yesterday, we looked at the Quantity Factor. Today, our attention turns to Condition.
Like any used car, pricing and valuations are based on the Corvette's present condition at the time of the sale. Many like to use the 1 to 5 scale with 1 or C1 (Condition 1) being excellent, show quality and 5 or C5 (Condition 5) being a project car that is usually not running or unassembled in some fashion. Pricing between these points on the scale can vary wildly so it is important to know what your chosen Corvette model can be purchased for at any point on the condition scale. Most of the price guides will give you an idea as to what the price should be along each point of the scale or at the very least, a High, Low and Average figure.
Corvettes that have been restored are generally classified as excellent, show condition. They are usually a 1 or 2 on the Condition Scale. There are usually two types of restorations. Frame-off or Body-off restorations refer to the car being completely torn down with all components and body panels removed from the frame, and then reassembled. A Body-On restoration refers to a Corvette that may have had as complete a restoration as possible without removing the body panels from the frame. Some Corvettes may have been restored several years prior and are sometimes referred to as an older restoration. These Corvettes may be a 2 or even a 3 on the Condition Scale.
Then there are the Corvettes have been so well taken care of, that restoration may not be needed. At the Bloomington Gold Corvette Show, a separate class called Survivor was created for these unrestored, original Corvettes. While a Survivor Corvette may not be as polished as a restored Corvette, make no mistake that the condition of a Survivor Corvette's value based on condition may just as well make it as valuable as that of one that has recently went through a frame-off restoration.
Lastly, there is the Project Corvette. Oh yes, the project car, with all its potential and a seductively low price that can lure you in and trap you. Unless you are experienced in the mechanical and body issues that a project Corvette will have, as well as having the budget, you are best advised to leave these examples to the professionals.
Many times you'll be looking at Corvettes for sale and come across an ad for a "freshly restored†model, but the price seems to be thousands more than Corvettes in similar condition. This pricing anomaly could be the result of someone who got into a project and ended up spending way more than Corvette is worth.
On Wednesday, our attention turns to Options.

Five Factors That Drive Corvette Values – Quantity
by Keith Cornett on October 16, 2006
This is the first of our five-part series where we take an in depth look at the factors that drive Corvette values. So what drives the values of Corvettes? Much like any other automobile, Corvette values are based on a number of factors including quantity produced, condition of the car, options, originality and market forces. To arrive at an approximation of price or value, these five factors are combined and those with the best combinations rise to the top of the pricing matrix. All of this is common sense really. Take a low production car in top condition, that contains desirable options, is a documented original and then add demand and you get a highly valued Corvette. The first factor that drives Corvette values is Quantity. Corvettes were never really produced in mass like other vehicles. Sure it seems there's a lot of Corvettes on the road, but only 1.4 million Corvettes have been made since 1953. Looking at the Total Corvette Production Chart, you can see how production rises and falls throughout the years. Chevrolet broke the 10,000 units per year mark in 1960, the 8th year of production for Corvettes, and by 1963 had moved past 20,000 units per year. In the late Seventies and early Eighties, Chevrolet was averaging 40,000 Corvettes yearly. Production then fell during the early Nineties to the 20,000 level but rose again to average in the mid 30,000's for the C5 and C6 generations. Many Corvettes were produced in such limited number that price is high due to the limited quantity available. In 1953, the first year of the Corvette, 300 were produced, but because availability is so low, we don't see these Corvettes for sale all that often. Vette-N-Vestments tracked the sale of just two 1953 Corvettes in all of 2005, with sales of said year averaging over $100,000. In 1979, nearly 50,000 Corvettes were produced and because such a large quantity exists, decent cars can be found for $6,000 and up. The Quantity Factor is also impacted by the production of various body styles. Looking at our previous example of the 1979 Corvette, only one model was offered that year, the T-Top Coupe. In 1963, Chevrolet offered buyers a choice between a coupe and a convertible, and production between the two models was split nearly 50-50. But because the 1963 Coupe model was the first and only year with the famous "Split-Window†design, and because only 10,594 were built, the 63 Coupe is worth more due to its limited availability. However, just because one year's production total is lower doesn't always make it more valuable than same models in similar years. In 1997, the first of the C5 Corvette, only 9,752 Corvettes were produced. Examples of these Corvettes can be found in the $15,000-$20,000 range and even though they are the first year of the C5 generation and produced in limited quantity, they still lead the C5 category in depreciation.

Customers must redeem this Groupon by visiting Aladino's Pizza before Antioch Indoor Sports Center. Pizza will not be delivered but may be carried out and enjoyed inside the sports center. Public skating hours are Saturdays from 12:30 p.m. to 6 p.m., unless a private event is scheduled.
The two soccer fields and batting cages housed inside the San Ramon Sports complex grant athletes of all ages ample space to take kicks and whacks at their sphere of choice. The state-of-the-art turf fields host year-round soccer and lacrosse leagues for adults and juniors. The Lil' Kickers soccer program for kids 18 months to 9 years old introduces tykes to the sport, while 5- to 12-year-olds sharpen skills in Skills Institute classes. The batting cages hurl both softball lobs and baseballs at 35?80 miles per hour, allowing batters ample space to practice firing off line drives or psychically altering pitch trajectory. Camps and birthday parties are available.
Rich Taylor and George Silvey run San Jose Batting Cages camps. In fact, running baseball and softball camps is what these two have been doing for more than 30 years. Rich has spent more than 35 years developing Little League and D1 players at Pepperdine University, which is where he coached three All Americans. Twenty of his players signed professional contracts during his tenure as a pitching coach. George has more than 40 years of coaching experience and is the current Varsity Softball Pitching and Assistant Head Coach for Los Gatos High School. With a relentless focus on practice, San Jose Batting Cages lets players improve their hitting, pitching, defense, and all-around game to better prepare for their next outing on the diamond.
Whether working through in-season regimens or off-season training, baseball and softball players can perfect their swing within San Jose Batting Cages' batting cages and training facility, which stays open until 9 p.m. during the week. Instructors offer hitting and pitching lessons as well as team and group clinics to help athletes develop all aspects of their game.
Cricket Strike Zone's four indoor practice lanes stretch across 6,240 square feet, providing batters ample elbow room to hone their cricket, baseball, and softball skills with friends and teammates. Each lane's expansive length allows ball-swatters plenty of space to enact hypothetical game scenarios, and ICC-regulated cricket nets on all sides forcefully apprehend wayward balls attempting to flee the area. Cricket players can swing the time away as a pair of Bola Professional automatic bowling machines imported from the UK dispense never-ending practice balls. Each lane rental also includes helmets and bats, allowing even the unequipped to safely practice their swings or engage in jousts upon their teammate's backs.
The faculty at MVP Sports Unlimited includes three trainers versed in Nike's SPARQ method, a former Seattle Mariner, and a coach with a 25-year career in fast-pitch softball. Baseball, softball, and soccer players flock to the 15,000-square-foot center for one-on-one instruction and to finesse team dynamics, relying on a practice space whose climate stays consistent without the hoopla of rain dances. Inside, a 3,500-square-foot turf training field stretches out under 15-foot ceilings and is flanked by six 70-foot batting tunnels. A pitching mound and an L screen equips each of these, and the staff can wheel in either a Bata machine capable of hurling a 95 mph fastball or an Iron Mike machine that visibly winds up to help batters work on timing. A pro shop sells gear for practice, and an arcade and a lounge with WiFi entertain sidelined visitors.
The crack of the bat is an exhilarating sound, whether or not the batter is about to run the bases. At Triple Play U.S.A., players can hone their skills in cages that hurl baseballs or softballs at 25–80 miles per hour with more precision than a propped-up leaf-blower. Pitchers can also keep their arms conditioned in the center's pitching tunnel, but they'll probably have to change up their throwing pattern on the center's half-basketball court. While resting their arms, patrons can find snacks at the concession stand or catch up on the latest scores on one of two HDTVs.

Eat Your Greens
by Katie Cavuto-Boyle in Uncategorized, April 20, 2012After a recent trip to Whole Foods I found myself mesmerized by an educational poster in the elevator on the power of greens. Whole Foods uses the "ANDI" (Aggregate Nutrient Density Index) to showcase healthy food options in their store and this particular poster was emphasizing the nutrient density of several varieties of greens. I loved the fact that the poster highlighted some less-common greens, ones that rarely become make it to the average household's dinner table. So I'd like to elaborate the poster and teach you a bit more about some well-known and lesser known greens that will do your body good.
Collard greens (ANDI score=1000) Out of all the greens in the cabbage family, collards have the greatest cholesterol-lowering abilities. They also have amazing anti-cancer properties, are packed with Vitamin C, soluble fiber and many other vitamins and minerals. Try sauteing them with a little olive oil, onions and garlic. They make the healthiest side dish out there!
Mustard Greens (ANDI score=1000) As you may have guessed, the seeds from the mustard plant are what we use to make the condiment we are so familiar with. But the leaves are used far less often. These amazing greens also taste like mustard and are a great addition to any Asian stir-fry.
Turnip Greens (ANDI score=1000) While most of us jump at the chance to cook up some turnips, turnip greens often get tossed aside. These greens have a similar mustardy taste to mustard greens and are great for braising, adding to a soup or throwing into a stir fry.
Kale (ANDI score=1000) Kale is actually the same plant as collards, just a different variety. Kale is great sauteed on its own, massaged with olive oil into a tender salad, or seasoned with salt, pepper and olive and baked into chips.
Watercress (ANDI score=1000) Watercress is an aquatic or semi-aquatic green with a nice peppery taste; it's from the same family as all of the previously mentioned greens. Because of its great health properties, it's mentioned in many ancient legends. Just one example is Roman emperors eating it to help with bold decisions. Use watercress in a salad, on a sandwich or wilt it into pasta.
Bok Choy (ANDI score=824) Bok Choy is an Asian green found in many Chinese recipes. It has thin leaves on thick, edible stems. Bok choy is great stir-fried with broccoli, carrot, water chestnuts and oyster mushrooms so their stems have time to cook down and become tender.
Spinach (ANDI score=739) Spinach had its heyday with Popeye, but we're still loving it! Spinach is a tender green that can be used in a variety of ways. Use it as a layer in lasagna, mix it with ricotta for stuffed shells or manicotti, chop it up and add it to pasta sauce, or just sauté it with some garlic as a side dish.
Brussels Sprouts (ANDI score=672) Brussel sprouts are one of the coolest-looking plants when you see them in the field. They spiral up a thick stem and look like something out of a Dr. Seuss book. One trick I learned for cooking them is to sauté them in orange juice. Or try roasting them with olive, salt, pepper and a little maple syrup.
Swiss Chard (ANDI score=670) Swiss chard is one of the most beautiful greens, especially if you get the kind with the rainbow colored stems. Chard is actually related to spinach and can be used similarly: on pasta, sauteed, or on a sandwich.
Arugula (ANDI score=559) Arugula, also known as rocket, is a peppery green like watercress, that adds bold flavor to any dish. Replace lettuce with arugula on a sandwich or in a salad or use it in pesto, lasagna and egg dishes. Not only will the flavor improve, the nutrient level will skyrocket, too.

This is a piece that reflects my usual illustration style. I like to strike a balance of using detail while retaining simplicity. This creates an end product of straightforward, accessible design with a sense of realism.
I always show this particular illustration first because this is the type of design I do when I am inspired and want to design purely for fun and not for a paycheck or business objective.
Paris Kitty was an idea I came up with involving two things I am very fond of: french culture and cats. For this design, I found images that I used as textures, such as the beret, the baguette, and the texture of the pants. Between using Illustrator and Photoshop, I created a design that used vectors with rasterized effects.
This is one of my favorite illustration pieces. It is based off of the Psych season 4 cover. Psych is one of my favorite shows, and I truly enjoyed illustrating the two main characters, Shawn and Gus. I also added in a pineapple, which is hidden in almost every episode.
Each year, The American Law Institute has an annual meeting held in Washington, D.C. I created a booklet and a save the date postcard to promote the 2014 Annual Meeting. These pieces were mailed to ALI members and feature an impressive list of speakers, including Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
For The American Law Institute CLE, I create course brochures that advertise in-person courses. Here are two examples of the front panel of these brochures. As a redesign, I've added pictures of the course locations instead of the standard blue and gold template that was used before.
As part of the redesign of the course brochures, The American Law Institute CLE's save the date postcards were also updated. These postcards highlight the course location for our in-person courses, and use accent colors that are carried throughout each course's marketing collateral.
I enjoy creating typographic pieces, and I consider it an art to be able to align phrases in different types of type treatments. For The American Law Institute CLE, I designed this poster to give to law libraries—it highlights a discount that library patrons can use, which also benefits the library.
Here are three logos I designed and pitched for The American Law Institute CLE's Daily Deals microsite. Similar to Groupon, ALI CLE posts deals on select courses. While we decided to create a different type of logo, I still enjoyed creating these three ideas and I think any of these would be a suitable logo.
For The American Law Institute CLE's semi-annual sale, I created various banners to be featured in our promotional emails. The first banner introduces the offer, while the second banner advertises the extended sale. The third banner was used as a sidebar in other emails that were not directly offering the sale.

Did anyone spot the design flaw?
When mounted on a wall, firstly you have to take it off the wall to plug in a connecting usb lead but more importantly there is no cable feedway so the cabinet will rest on the cables when wall mounted.
Also, if wall mounted, how is the cooling fan going to work?
It's a neat design apart from the above flaws. The wall mounting is just bizarre...perhaps there is a bracket which goes up first although it doesn't look like it. And there should be another way for the cables to run. And yes the slide out bit looks a bit flimsy, I'd want a secure anchoring point somewhere
There is a bracket shown under the Accessories title on this page:
PARAPROJECT® Cube for iPad - PARAT
It looks as though you hook the cube onto the bracket and can use the slide out clip to padlock them together. From the picture it seems to stick out a few centimeters which should be enough to allow space for the power and USB cables-although you'd have to connect them before attaching to the wall.
That makes a bit more sense. :)
Ah yeah looks a lot better!
Anyone know the rough price of one of these by the way?
As they have standard USB charging ports will this work with Android Tablets that physically fit into the slot?
I don't see why not?
BTW Kensington were also showing a rebadged version of this at the show, with a kensington lock through the flap.
I had to lol when the guy told me there's wasn't a Parat rebadged, and Parat had probably rebadged theirs. German manufacturing firms are known for that, right? :p
RM was selling one for £350

It did fail by 1. We had 2 Republicans who voted for it the first time and flipped when it came time to override.
I also don't know if you would be able to buy class 3 or not. I looked at the Missouri laws and it does say class 3 is illegal because of federal law. but since that law is on Missouri books I'm not sure if hb436 would have taken it off or if we would have had to wait until it ended up in court for a judge to decide.

Critics Question KQED's Direction
THE modern earth-brown building dwarfs the surrounding red-brick warehouses and factories. Hanging over the side like a movie-house marquee are large silver letters reading "KQED."
The three-story, one-square-block building is home to San Francisco's public television and radio station. Critics charge that the office and studio complex is far too expensive for a public station and say it is a sign that management has lost touch with the station's community base.
This year KQED ran a $1 million deficit, its largest in history and eliminated 9.5 percent of its work force. The financial problems have accelerated long-standing criticism from community groups. A dissident slate won two of nine seats in last week's elections for the board of directors.
"KQED has lost track of its original purpose," says Sasha Futran, a freelance journalist who won a seat on the board. She says corporate underwriting and a big-business orientation by management have undercut the station's credibility. "We need to put the public back in public broadcasting," she says.
Station President Tony Tiano defends his station's policies. He says revenues have remained flat while costs have skyrocketed, and corporate underwriting is the only way many programs stay on the air. "Ours remains one of the best public stations in the country," he says.
Critics agree that KQED faces tough financial problems but disagree with management's solutions. Ms. Futran points to the new building as a waste of funds. All costs for the building ran just under $25 million, according to KQED figures.
"We could have spent that money on local programming," says Futran, "not on a fancy addition like the atrium."
The controversial atrium, located in the middle of the building, features skylights and a two-story-high curving wall. It cost about $100,000, according to KQED management.
Greg Sherwood, KQED director of communications and a former board member, says the station has benefited greatly from the larger space for the radio station and the ability to have all operations under one roof.

Rooney Mara, Casey Affleck on the Humble Beginnings of 'Ain't Them Bodies Saints'
Actors Rooney Mara and Casey Affleck play a love-torn couple in director David Lowery's Sundance 2013 film Ain't Them Bodies Saints. Some would call the duo the new, modern day Bonnie & Clyde in this mellow and expansive pseudo-Western, which was picked up by IFC Films and won Sundance's Cinematography Award for a U.S. Dramatic film. The younger Affleck takes a turn playing an outlaw who escapes prison to reunite with his wife, played by Mara, and the child he has never seen. Things get complicated, to say the least.
Here, Lowery, a Sundance Institute alumni, and the cast of Ain't Them Bodies Saints talk to VIBE about being inspired by music when putting together the independent film.

Rolls-Royce advanced compressor rig demonstrates ultra-high pressure ratio goal at US Air Force research laboratory
Tuesday, 9 July 2013
Rolls-Royce has completed testing on a new, advanced technology compressor focusing on reduced fuel consumption.
The Rolls-Royce Highly Energy Efficient Turbine Engine (HEETE) compressor successfully demonstrated its ultra-high pressure ratio performance goal and an ability to manage component temperatures at ultra-high ratio design conditions through advanced thermal management. During testing at the US Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), the HEETE compressor achieved the highest pressure ratio ever demonstrated at AFRL's Compressor Research Facility.
Mark Wilson, Chief Operating Officer - LibertyWorks, said, "This successful ultra-high pressure ratio testing validates the Rolls-Royce compressor design. The advanced compressor technology can be applied to future transport, patrol and ISR applications, ranging from our successful AE family to larger engine applications. The advanced technology will help meet the future needs of the US military by increasing range and persistence, while reducing fuel consumption."
"The Rolls-Royce HEETE program is one of several advanced technology programs under way at our LibertyWorks unit. LibertyWorks has successfully completed designs for all major US airframe companies, as well as NASA, and has demonstrated success through ADVENT and other advanced technology programs."
Rolls-Royce is one of two companies selected for the HEETE advanced compressor technology program to design next-generation propulsion systems for the US Air Force. The development work is being carried out by the company's LibertyWorks research unit in Indianapolis, Indiana, US. In 2007, the US Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) awarded the program to Rolls-Royce in a contract that is valued at $25.3 million.
HEETE is a technology development program that pursues high temperature, high pressure ratio compressor technologies and their related thermal management features. While this initial HEETE testing was focused on an advanced compressor demonstration, the goal is to define the next generation engine architecture for subsonic missions, such as Transports, Tankers, ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance) and Subsonic Strike Vehicles.
- Rolls-Royce is a world-leading provider of power systems and services for use on land, at sea and in the air, and has established a strong position in global markets - civil aerospace, defence aerospace, marine and energy.
- As a result of this strategy, Rolls-Royce has a broad customer base comprising more than 300 airlines, 4,000 corporate and utility aircraft and helicopter operators, 160 armed forces, more than 4,000 marine customers, including 70 navies, and energy customers in more than 80 countries.
- Underlying revenue was $19.5* billion in 2012, of which more than half came from the provision of services. The firm and announced order book stood at $96.2 billion at 31 December 2012, providing visibility of future levels of activity.
- Rolls-Royce employs over 45,000 people in offices, manufacturing and service facilities in over 50 countries. Over 14,000 of these employees are engineers.
- In 2012, Rolls-Royce invested $1.47 billion on research and development, two thirds of which had the objective of further improving the environmental performance of its products, in particular reducing emissions.
- Rolls-Royce supports a global network of 28 University Technology Centres, which connect the company's engineers with the forefront of scientific research.
- The Group has a strong commitment to apprentice and graduate recruitment and to further developing employee skills.

aminoacetic acid
Please note that this section reports on claims that have NOT yet been substantiated through scientific studies.
There is conflicting evidence that taking glycine orally in addition to conventional treatment seems to reduce negative symptoms of schizophrenia in patients who are resistant to monotherapy with conventional antipsychotics.
Applying a cream containing glycine, l-cysteine, and dl-threonine seems to reduce pain and slightly improve healing of leg ulcers.
Taking glycine sublingually may have neuroprotective effects if started within six hours after the onset of acute ischemic stroke. In addition, it is thought to be useful in treating depression, hyperactivity, and malnutrition associated with drug addiction.
Amino acids (AAs), such as glycine, are available as individual AAs or in proprietary AA combinations, as well as part of multi-vitamin formulas, proteins, and food supplements. The forms include tablets, fluids, and powders. However, adequate protein in the diet should provide a sufficient source of all amino acids.
There are no conditions that increase the nutritional requirements for glycine.
The use of a single amino acid supplement may lead to a negative nitrogen balance, decreasing the metabolic efficiency and increasing the workload of the kidneys. In children, taking single amino acid supplements may also harmfully affect growth parameters.
Excessive glycine in the body has been linked to seizure disorders and developmental delays in children.
Always avoid taking individual amino acids in high dosage for prolonged periods.
Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should not use glycine supplements.

I've got 60-70 fruit trees, oldest only 8-9 years of age. Every year I plant a few, often to replace winter vole damage, which stopped completely with plastic tree tubes. I will try to attach pics. One per page it seems. But basically the apples/plums/cherries and pears are in full bloom or have been in the last week. I use NO round up, but some of the damage reminds me of round up damage, especially one plum. I'm 99% sure this isn't frost damage. The almonds survived blooming. So why would the apples die? Anyways any info appreciated. Kind of heart breaking! |

This is a Japanese plum, with both regular growth, but also lots of deformed, whitish leaves. Looks to me like round-up damage but it isn't. |
- Posted by fireweed22 (My Page) on Sat, May 10, 14 at 16:07
Here's a multi variety grafted plum, two years in the ground.Buds started swelling then stopped. I scratched the bark, it's 'just' starting to yellow a bit two weeks ago it was a nice green. The shoot coming out lower in the branch is quite whitish and irregular. I think the tree is a write off. |

Very young Melrose apple, started budding, then stopped growth. I think the pic shows how if bent back there is brown within the bud. |
- Posted by fireweed22 (My Page) on Sat, May 10, 14 at 16:12
Pear, I think it was called Spartlett. Leaves are coming out real skinny/spindly. I think there is some rust mite damage going on here, I did spray dormant oil before any growth started, not that it helps much. Also kind of reminds me of round up damage (on blackberries and roses), but these are on my own property and over all organic. |
- Posted by fireweed22 (My Page) on Sat, May 10, 14 at 16:16
Last one, my Mutsu apple. This is one of my longest lived apples at 8-9 years, and the leaves are coming out way too slow, there's buds breaking but looks like they aren't enlarging. Leaves are a tad curly. So I sprayed all these with lime sulpher / dormant oil before buds even cracked, as per directions. I can't figure out what else it could be. Thanks. |
Where do you live and what's the pH of your soil? How cold did it get last winter? The first picture and the pear look like some nectarines I saw recently that are apparently in very low pH potting mix. |
- Posted by fireweed22 (My Page) on Sat, May 10, 14 at 16:31
Pacific Northwest, in the mountains. We had some cold snaps without much snow cover, usually lots of snow with the same cold. I did figure it wasn't likely the cold mainly because at least the apples can survive much colder. And my almonds did amazing (against a wall). Naturally the soil is acidic(blueberry country) but I'm diligent about liming annually. I usually put a handful of dolopril in fall, then a couple more in spring. Never tested the ground but I noticed better pollination rates when I started liming. |
- Posted by fireweed22 (My Page) on Sat, May 10, 14 at 16:42
Is it not possible to correct spelling in subject.... |
Have a soil test done. Lots of samples to proper depth, composite, and mix well. You may not be applying enough limestone and you are in the country where pH could be an issue for fruit trees. We used to apply limestone to things like alfalfa on the farm. Application rates are something like 20 lbs per 100 sq ft. Not every year but every few yrs. |

Interesting, I will check the ph. I sense it is something else mainly due to the fact everyone around here has established fruit trees and they grow in hedgerows wild, and I'm likely the only one out there liming. |
The several you suggest look like Roundup damage, really do. Could have blown in from off-property somewhere. Or from a psryer which hav=d previously been used for herbicide. Are you certain you don't have a friendly garden helper/neighbor/friend who has been "helping?" As for the buds with brown interiors. |
- Posted by johnthecook (My Page) on Sun, May 11, 14 at 8:07
I noticed a few of my buds on my apple tree were brown and a little funky looking on my other wise healthy and full of buds trees. I'm not sure if it is connected but I am finding very tiny caterpillars on some of the buds which I'm going to spray today. |
- Posted by fireweed22 (My Page) on Sun, May 11, 14 at 11:02
I'm sure it's not roundup. Neighbors just have scrub and pasture and don't spray, and the orchard is hundreds of feet away from property lines. The sprayer has only been used for lime sulphur and mineral oil, ever. I wonder if the spray was off, it was purchased new, but I've read it can go bad and kill plants. |

What's the difference between built-in and fully integrated when both have custom panels? I'm specifically looking at Liebherr refrigerators. I'm guessing that the built-in isn't as flush with the cabinets as the fully integrated. Is that correct? If so, why would a company make both built-in and fully integrated with custom panels when it seems like if you're doing custom panels, the purpose is to have it flush with the other cabinets. If anyone has pictures of the difference between the two, I'd greatly appreciate seeing them. Thanks! |

With built in, you can see the "stuff" behind the panels. Stainless and rubber bits. Like having the curtain pulled back on the Wizard. With fully integrated, there's no hint that it's even an appliance. If you want it to look like a 14th century Japanese Tansu, if you have the cabinet maker who can do the millwork, then it can look like that. |

Don't worry though, we have a lot more Powder Snowboards in stock than that.
The mid-stiff, ultra-damp Never Summer Premier F1 Snowboard is built for tackling huge lines on big mountains. The Premier easily smashes through crud and rules hardpack with carbon stringers for tons of power at the edges, and RDS 1 damping absorbs vibrations to give you more control and reduced fatigue. All this combined with Never Summer's legendary durability make the Premier a force to be reckoned with.
Exclusive to the Premier F1 is the RDS 1 damping system, which features
three full perimeter layers of elastomeric rubber laminated between the
edge, fiberglass, and core for unmatched stability and smoothness. The Multi-Flex Profiled Flightcore fuses premium hardwood and ultralight softwood laminates for a perfect blend of strength and snap, and it's profiled to be thinner in the center for a surfy feel and thicker in the tail for more drive . Never Summer's Original Rocker Camber profile features rocker between the bindings for a catch-free feel on hardpack and float in pow, with camber outside the bindings to maintain pop and power. Carbon Vs in the tip and tail improve energy transfer and edge hold, and an additional V in the tail increases turning power. Never Summer's signature Vario Power Grip sidecut uses additional contact points to help you hold and edge on even the iciest of slopes.

Marie C. SalerniMarie C. Salerni
Marie C. Salerni, 87, of Rutland, died February 9, 2013, at her home.
Marie, a dedicated family woman, is best remembered for spending countless patient hours with her grandchildren. What she taught them cannot be measured and it continues to grow. A self-educated naturalist, she took great delight in the nature of the smallest and most delicate. She loved the flowers and birds, but it was the humming birds, the chickadees and the fragile wild flowers she found on the forest floor that brought her the most joy. Whether it was stopping on the roadside to pick berries or having the occasional cigarette with a dear friend, she never missed the value of the simple moments. Wendy, she loved you like a sister. You cannot know the comfort your selfless friendship provided her.
Maries final passage was eased by many gentle souls. To Lois and Cathy, the many tasks you performed at all hours day and night gave her great comfort. To Chad and Shirley, thanks for being there. Rev. Dodson, your prayers had a remarkable effect on her. Dr. McCormick, the nurses and aides of hospice, thank you, all.
Private services will be held at the convenience of the family.MORE IN Obituaries0124 RH Obits Harwood edited photo flag Full Story0124 RH Obits Denis rites no photo no flag Full Story0124 RH Obits Wilson edited no photo no flag Full Story -

Could anyone explain to me in detail about maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) in layman's terms? I would like to know the underlying concept before going into mathematical derivation or equation.
Say you have some data. Say you're willing to assume that the data comes from some distribution -- perhaps Gaussian. There are an infinite number of different Gaussians that the data could have come from: different means, different variances. MLE will pick the Gaussian that is the most likely one that your data came from. So say you've got a data set of Moving to regression: instead of the mean being a constant, the mean is a linear function of the data, as specified by the regression equation. So, say you've got data like Moving to GLMs: replace Gaussian with some other distribution (from the exponential family). The mean is now a linear function of the data, as specified by the regression equation, transformed by the link function. So, it's $g(X'\beta)$, where $g(x) = e^x/(1+e^x)$ for logit (with binomial data). |
Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) is a technique to find the most likely function that explains observed data. I think math is necessary, but don't let it scare you! Let's say that we have a set of points in the $x,y$ plane, and we want to know the function parameters $\beta$ and $\sigma$ that most likely fit the data (in this case we know the function because I specified it to create this example, but bear with me).
In order to do a MLE, we need to make assumptions about the form of the function.
In a linear model, we assume that the points follow a normal (Gaussian) probability
distribution, with mean $x\beta$ and standard deviation $\sigma^2$: What we want to find is the parameters $\beta$ and $\sigma$ that maximize this probability for all points $(x_i, y_i)$. This is the "likelihood" function, $\mathcal{L}$ $$\mathcal{L} = \prod_{i=1}^n y_i = \prod_{i=1}^n \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi\sigma^2}} \exp\Big({-\dfrac{(y_i - x_i\beta)^2}{2\sigma^2}}\Big)$$ For various reasons, it's easier to use the log of the likelihood function: $$\log(\mathcal{L}) = \sum_{i = 1}^n-\frac{n}{2}\log(2\pi) -\frac{n}{2}\log(\sigma^2) - \frac{1}{2\sigma^2}(y_i - x_i\beta)^2$$ We can code this as a function in R with $\theta = (\beta,\sigma^2)$.
This function, at different values of $\beta$ and $\sigma^2$, creates a surface.
As you can see, there is a maximum point somewhere on this surface. We can find parameters that specify this point with R's built-in optimization commands. This comes reasonably close to uncovering the true parameters $0, \beta = 2.7, \sigma^2 = 1.3$
Ordinary least squares is the maximum likelihood for a linear model, so it
makes sense that
The MLE is the value of the parameter of interest that maximizes the probability of observing the data that you observed. In other words, it is the value of the parameter that makes the observed data most likely to have been observed. |
It is possible to say something without using (much) math, but for actual statistical applications of maximum likelihood you need mathematics. Maximum likelihood estimation is related to what philosophers call inference to the best explanation, or abduction. We use this all the time! Note, I do not say that maximum likelihood is abduction, that term is much wider, and some cases of Bayesian estimation (with an empirical prior) can probably also be seen as abduction. Some examples taken form http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/abduction/#Aca See also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abductive_reasoning
Another example: You work in a kindergarten, and one day a child starts to walk in a strange way, and saying he broke his legs. You examine and find nothing wrong. Then you can reasonably infer that one of his parents broke their legs, since children then often actuate as described, so that is an "inference to the best explanation" and an instance of (informal) maximum likelihood. Abduction is about fonding pattern in data, and then searching for possible theories that can possibly make those patterns probable. Then choosing the possible explanation, which makes the observed pattern maximally probable, is just maximum likelihood! The prime example of abduction in science is evolution. There is no one single observation that implies evolution, but evolution makes observed patterns more probable than other explanations. Another typical example is medical diagnosos? Which possible medical condition makes the observed pattern of symptoms the most probable? Again, this is also maximum likelihood! (Or, in this case, maybe bayesian estimation is a better fit, we must take into account the prior probability of the various possible explanations). But that is a technicality, in this case we can have empirical priors which can be seen as a natural part of the statistical model, and what we call model, what we call prior is some arbitrary statistical convention. To get back to the original question about layman term explanation of MLE, here is one simple example: When my daughters where 6 and 7 years old, I asked them this. We made two urns (two shoe-boxes), in one we put 2 black balls, 8 red, in the other the numbers where switched. Then we mixed the urns, and we draw one urn randomly. Then we took at random one ball from that urn. It was red. Then I asked : From which urn do you think that red ball was drawn? After about one seconds thinking, they answered (in choir): From the one with 8 red ball! Then I asked: Why do you think so? And anes, after about one second: "Because then it is easier to draw a red ball!. That is, easier=more probable. That was maximum likelihood (it is an easy exercise to write up the probability model), and it is "inference to the best explanation", that is, abduction. |
The maximum likelihood (ML) estimate of a parameter is the value of that parameter under which your actual observed data are most likely, relative to any other possible values of the parameter. The idea is that there are any number of "true" parameter values that could have led to your actually observed data with some non-zero (albeit perhaps small) probability. But the ML estimate gives the parameter value that would have led to your observed data with the highest probability. This must not be confused with the value of the parameter that is most likely to have actually produced your data! I like the following passage from Sober (2008, pp. 9-10) on this distinction. In this passage, we have some observed data denoted $O$ and a hypothesis denoted $H$. In terms of the example above, ML would favor the gremlin hypothesis. In this particular comical example, that is clearly a bad choice. But in a lot of other more realistic cases, the ML estimate might be a very reasonable one. Reference Sober, E. (2008). Evidence and Evolution: the Logic Behind the Science. Cambridge University Press. |
One task in statistics is to fit a distribution function to a set of data points to generalize what's intrinsic about the data. When one is fitting a distribution a)choose an appropriate distribution b)set the movable parts (parameters), for example mean, variance, etc. When doing all this one also needs an objective, aka objective function/error function. This is required to define the meaning of "best" or "best in what sense". MLE is the procedure where this objective function is set as the maximum of the probability mass/density function of the chosen distribution. Other techniques differ how they choose this objective function. For example ordinary least squares (OLS) takes the minimum sum of squared errors. For the Gaussian case OLS and MLE are equivalent because the Gaussian distribution has that (x-m)^2 term in the density function that makes the objectives of OLS and MLE coincide. You can see that it is a squared difference term like OLS. Of course one can choose any objective function. However the intuitive meaning will not be always clear. MLE assumes that we know the distribution to start with. In other techniques, this assumption is relaxed. Especially in those cases it is more common to have a custom objective function. |
Suppose you have a coin. Tossing it can give either heads or tails. But you don't know if it's a fair coin. So you toss it 1000 times. It comes up as heads 1000 times, and never as tails. Now, it's possible that this is actually a fair coin with a 50/50 chance for heads/tails, but it doesn't seem likely, does it? The chance of tossing a fair coin 1000 times and heads never coming up is $0.5^{2000}$, very small indeed. The MLE tries to help you find the best explanation in a situation like this -- when you have some result, and you want to figure out what the value of the parameter is that is most likely to give that result. Here, we have 2000 heads out of 2000 tosses -- so we would use an MLE to find out what probability of getting a head best explains getting 2000 heads out of 2000 tosses. It's the Maximum Likelihood Estimator. It estimates the parameter (here, it's a probability distribution function) that is most likely to have produced the result you are currently looking at. To finish up our example, taking the MLE would return that the probability of getting a head that best explains getting 2000 heads out of 2000 tosses is $1$. |
Try this link. It has pretty crisp explanation about MLE, MAP, EM. I think it covers basic idea of MLE in simple terms. |

New Cooper Pick-Up and Drop-Off Rules
In an effort to make sure that all of our Cooper students are safe during pick up and drop off, our safety committee has reworked the flow of our parent pick up and drop off in the Weisberg end.
In the past, bus drop off, parent drop off, parent parking and student walking has all happened in the same area. To make this busy time of the day the safest it can be for all of our students we will be designating some new areas. Diagonal parking in front of the Weisberg sidewalk will continue to be an option for parents who wish to walk their students in or out of school. Parallel parking next to the field on the Weisberg end will be a second option for parent parking if they choose to walk their students in or out. This is NOT a drop off area, you MUST accompany your student across moving traffic. A clearly labeled driving lane, with arrows for through traffic, will be marked between these two parking areas. We now have three handicap accessible parking spaces. Please honor these areas. The biggest change in the Cooper flow will happen at the south end of the Weisberg drop off loop. The entire south curb and sidewalk is for pick up and drop off only. Please do not block this area if you are waiting for your student. If you have to wait, please drive the loop again. If everyone respects the flow of traffic this will be safer and smoother for everyone. Southeast staff parking lot CANNOT be used between 8am and 4pm by parents for student drop off or pick up. City citations will be issued if this is not followed.
Review of new pick up and drop off options:
New Pick-Up and Drop-Off Area
(Section designated by painted green curb and signage)
o No parking or standing students can easily and quickly load/unload here o South end of the Weisberg drop off loop
Thru Lane
(Marked with arrows for flow of traffic)
o No one stopped or waiting in this area
Parking Areas Diagonal and Parallel
(Painted with diagonal or parallel lines)
o These areas are designed for parents to walk students in or out of building
o OnlyspotsintheWeisbergendwherevehiclescanbeleftunattended
o Parents must accompany in and out of these areas because of moving traffic
If you have any questions please contact Mr. Brodeen at 715-394-8790 ext 101 or
Thank you for your cooperation in implanting this new system. It will certainly be safer for our students and more convenient for our parents. Mr. Brodeen
