Description This application claims the benefit of and is a divisional of U.S. application Ser. No. 10/732,995 filed on Dec. 11, 2003, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety for all purposes. The present invention relates to the field of downhole measurements. In particular, the invention relates to systems and methods for making measurements in a wellbore and processing and transmitting the same. There are generally two types of measurements made downhole�measurements of the rock surrounding the borehole (often referred to as formation evaluation) and measurements of the borehole and drilling assembly (often referred to as drilling monitoring). Examples of drilling monitoring include the following:
Drilling monitoring data such as these as well as other types of drilling monitoring data generally have to be subjected to some form of data processing before transmission to the surface using while-drilling telemetry. Aside from just reducing the sampling rate to be compatible with the transmission rate, various means have been proposed for capturing some of the detail of the high frequency data in a few numbers that can be transmitted using available telemetry. Known processing techniques can consist of simple methods (such as mean, standard deviation, maximum and minimum) or more complicated procedures (spectra or wavelet analysis). The motivation for these procedures is the data bottleneck resulting from the slow telemetry rate from downhole to surface. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 4,216,536 discloses calculating various properties (mean, positive and negative peaks, standard deviation, fundamental and harmonic frequencies and amplitudes), and transmitting a selection of these while drilling. U.S. Pat. No. 5,663,929 discloses the use of the wavelet transform to reduce the amount of data. While both these types of methods serve the function of data reduction within in a single data channel, the usefulness of preserving high-frequency information that shows how different channels relate to one another was not appreciated. In general in the prior art it was not appreciated that one could capture information on the quantitative relationship between multiple channels at frequencies greatly in excess of the sampling rate. Thus, it is an object of the present invention to provide a system and method that allows for a multi-channel data envelope to be generated at surface with relatively little data transmitted from downhole. According to the invention a system is provided for making measurements in a wellbore during the construction of the wellbore. The system includes a first sensor located downhole adapted to measure a first downhole parameter, and a second sensor located downhole adapted to measure a second downhole parameter. The system uses a downhole processor in communication with the first and second sensors to calculate a statistical relationship between the first and second downhole parameters. A transmitter located downhole and in communication with the downhole processor is used to transmit the calculated statistical relationship to the surface. The statistical relationship is preferably a covariance, and preferably standard deviation and/or mean are calculated as well. The downhole parameters are preferably torque and weight on bit; pressure and weight on bit; toolface and weight on bit; or annular pressure and downhole flow rate. The system preferably also includes a receiver located on the surface positioned and configured to receive the calculated statistical relationship transmitted by the transmitter, and a surface processor in communication with the receiver programmed to analyse the calculated statistical relationship. Based on the analysis, operating drilling parameters are preferably altered. The invention is also embodied in a method for making measurements in a wellbore. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, a method is provided to calculate and transmit either the covariance of the channels, or regression coefficient (covariance divided by the product of the standard deviations), in combination with individual channel means and variances (or alternatively, standard deviations). More generally, according to another embodiment of the invention, the data in each channel can be transformed by a linear transformation�and the covariance calculated after the transformation. An example of this is the Fourier transform. According to a preferred embodiment a system and method for downhole data processing of drilling monitoring measurements using a time domain covariance calculation will now be explained. Consider two channels, x and y, sampled at n samples/second. The covariance Cxy, calculated over N seconds is given by
The regression coefficient for the two channels is given by the covariance, divided by the individual channel standard deviations. This has the advantage of always lying between −1 and 1. The benefit of the covariance calculation is that it allows the best linear relationship (in a least-squares sense) between two measurements to be derived, as well as providing a measure of the fit (the regression coefficient). Therefore allows one to better estimate and determine downhole conditions. For example, if the two channels are torque and weight on bit, the invention will allow for an improved interpretation of bit wear. In another example where the channels are toolface and weight on bit, the invention allows for improved control of the drilling direction while sliding by varying the weight on bit. Minimizing the errors in y in this case gives as the best-fit line.
Similar expression exist for best-fit linear relationships between more than two channels, which require to be transmitted the individual channel means and standard deviations (or variances), and all the covariances between the different channels. According to another embodiment of the invention a method and system using a time-delayed covariance calculation will now be described. Another set of downhole covariances that may be calculated relate data in one channel to time-delayed data from another channel. For the two channels x and y we obtain covariances such as
If these covariances are calculated for k=−1, 0, 1 then linear relationships between x and the rate of change of y (or vice versa) may be deduced. According to another embodiment of the invention a method and system using frequency domain covariance calculation (or channel filtering) will be described. Time domain covariance calculations show simple relationships between channels (for instance, x is proportional to y, plus an offset) Sometimes more general frequency domain covariances are useful if it is unclear what kind of linear model relates two or more channels, or to provide evidence that no good linear model exists. For example, if large fluctuations in torque are being measured accompanied by large variations in downhole pressure, one would like to determine if there is a strong relationship between the two channels which would indicate the a common cause being possibly related to conditions near the drill bit rather than due to multiple causes at different locations within the borehole. According to this embodiment, some frequency domain calculation is made which is part of a general class of more complicated single channel data transformations. After this calculation, the covariance of the data in different channels is calculated.
Similarly to before, we can take the Fourier transformed data from M windows (i.e. covering time domain data from the previous (M+1)N/2 samples) and for each frequency f and pairs of channels x and y we may calculate As well as �box car� averages such as those shown above, other averaging methods may be used such as combining summation with a weighting function, or recursive exponential filtering. As well as providing means for quantitative assessment of relationships between variables, providing covariance information, in addition to means and variances allows the qualitative, visual relationship to be appreciated, as the following example demonstrates wherein a system and method using covariance calculations is applied to weight and torque. If the regression coefficient is zero, the ratio is the ratio of the standard deviations. As the absolute value of the regression coefficient increases, the ellipse becomes closer to a straight line. According to another embodiment of the invention, on the surface the data can be compared with data acquired from offset wells, in order to compare the performance of different bits or for other purposes. According to another embodiment of the invention, based on the profile of bit behavior obtained in a picture such as is shown in According to another embodiment of the invention, at the surface, similar mechanical measurements can also be made�in particular weight-on-bit and torque, as well as other measurements such as rate-of-penetration that cannot be made downhole. The surface measurements are available at high speed, however they contain contributions both from the bit and the drillstring. For instance, both the weight-on-bit and torque measured at surface will be greater than those measured downhole due to frictional effects in the wellbore. By applying similar processing to surface measurements as was made to the downhole measurements, the two sets of measurements may be compared, and the frictional correction estimated so that downhole weight and torque may be estimated from the surface. As well as downhole calculation of covariances of measurements such as weight and torque against each other, calculating and transmitting uphole the covariance of these measurements against time enables is especially useful in matching surface and downhole measurement of similar quantities. Comparison of the variances of the surface and downhole measurements also enables error estimates to be made on the accuracy of frictional correction. As well as processing surface measurements that are equivalent to downhole measurements, the calculation of means, variances and covariances of surface measurements (such as weight) with those that are only available at the surface (such as rate-of-penetration) enables further aspects of bit behaviour to be elucidated. For example, once the relationship between the surface and downhole weight has been established, the relationship between weight-on-bit and rate-of-penetration can be deduced. According to another embodiment of the invention, a system and method for relating weight on bit to toolface will be described. During sliding drilling the orientation of the drillstring has to be controlled so that drilling proceeds in the desired direction. While the orientation of the top of the drillstring is directly controlled by the surface rotation apparatus (top drive or rotary table), reactive torque due to drilling means that the actual toolface angle for a long drillstring will be quite different. Since reactive torque is related to the weight applied to the bit, if WOB is changed then the surface toolface may also have to be changed to compensate. When a survey is taken at a connection and the surface toolface is adjusted without any weight applied to the bit, the driller must compensate for the expected reactive torque�and if on commencing drilling the downhole toolface differs considerably from the desired toolface then further adjustments have to be made, delaying the drilling process. According to the invention data is transmitted to surface that shows how toolface would change with a change in weight, thereby making it easier to compensate toolface for WOB changes. According to this embodiment the two downhole channels whose covariance we require are toolface and WOB. Toolface correction will be proportional to bit torque�however bit torque is not a quantity that the driller can directly control from surface. However, bit torque is directly related to WOB, often in a roughly linear manner but the constant of proportionality will vary with the rock being drilled, as well as other factors such as flow rate. Transmitting to surface while drilling the means and variance of the WOB and toolface channels, together with their covariance, allows the relationship to be monitored and also enables precise small toolface corrections to be made by adjusting WOB. It also allows a better correction to be made for the anticipated reactive torque when toolface adjustments are made with zero weight on bit. According to another embodiment of the invention, a system and method for relating flow-rate and annular pressure is provided. During drilling there is normally an excess pressure in the annulus when pumping compared to when no fluid flow takes place, due to the frictional pressure created by fluid flow in the annular space. The pressure is a function of the fluid flow rate, and although it may vary non-linearly for the small fluid flow variations normally seen while drilling it will be nearly linear. The correlation between flow rate and annular pressure can be used to predict the effects of changing the flow rate substantially�either using the linear correlation directly or by using the linear correlation to calibrate a non-linear model. Normally the pump controller can maintain a very steady flow rate. As an extension to this embodiment, the surface flow rate can be deliberately varied, slowly, over a range in order to provide a good downhole measurement of the correlation. This correlation can also be measured when the pumps are switched off at the start of a connection, and the downhole flow rate drops to zero over a number of seconds. The drilling surface system 100 includes a derrick 68 and hoisting system, a rotating system, and a mud circulation system. The hoisting system which suspends the drill string 58, includes draw works 70, hook 72 and swivel 74. The rotating system includes kelly 76, rotary table 88, and engines (not shown). The rotating system imparts a rotational force on the drill string 58 as is well known in the art. Although a system with a kelly and rotary table is shown in The mud circulation system pumps drilling fluid down the central opening in the drill string. The drilling fluid is often called mud, and it is typically a mixture of water or diesel fuel, special clays, and other chemicals. The drilling mud is stored in mud pit 78. The drilling mud is drawn in to mud pumps (not shown) which pump the mud though stand pipe 86 and into the kelly 76 through swivel 74 which contains a rotating seal. In invention is also applicable to underbalanced drilling. If drilling underbalanced, at some point prior to entering the drill string, gas is introduced into drilling mud using an injection system (not shown). The mud passes through drill string 58 and through drill bit 54. As the teeth of the drill bit grind and gouges the earth formation into cuttings the mud is ejected out of openings or nozzles in the bit with great speed and pressure. These jets of mud lift the cuttings off the bottom of the hole and away from the bit, and up towards the surface in the annular space between drill string 58 and the wall of borehole 46. At the surface the mud and cuttings leave the well through a side outlet in blowout preventer 99 and through mud return line (not shown). Blowout preventer 99 comprises a pressure control device and a rotary seal. The mud return line feeds the mud into separator (not shown) which separates the mud from the cuttings. From the separator, the mud is returned to mud pit 78 for storage and re-use. Various sensors are placed on the surface system 100 to measure various parameters. For example, hookload is measured by hookload sensor 94 and surface torque is measured by a sensor on the rotary table 88. Signals from these measurements are communicated to a central surface processor 96. In addition, mud pulses traveling up the drillstring are detected by pressure sensor 92, located on stand pipe 86. Pressure sensor 92 comprises a transducer that converts the mud pressure into electronic signals. The pressure sensor 92 is connected to surface processor 96 that converts the signal from the pressure signal into digital form, stores and demodulates the digital signal into useable MWD data. According to various embodiments described above, surface processor 96 is used to analyze the transmitted statistical relationship, such as covariance, and make comparisons with surface measured data such as hook load and surface torque. While the invention has been described in conjunction with the exemplary embodiments described above, many equivalent modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art when given this disclosure. Accordingly, the exemplary embodiments of the invention set forth above are considered to be illustrative and not limiting. Various changes to the described embodiments may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Patent Citations

Names Children Call Parents
Mommy Dearest: What Should Kids Call Their Parents?
For reasons I still cannot explain, my children started calling my husband and I by our first names. At school, they are told to call their teachers by their proper names. I think they just picked up the way we speak to each other at home. While we thought it was funny at first, the more it happens in public, the more we realize that we need to rein them in and go back to traditional titles. The problem is that our kids simply refuse to do so. Do you have any suggestions?

Jennifer aka Mom —
You and your husband appear to have backed yourselves into a corner here. It is time for you to exert your authority and redirect your children to rules that must be followed. To start, you should convene a family meeting and discuss your desires to be called by traditional titles. If your lil rebels continue to disobey your wishes, it may be time to stop responding to them when they call you by the wrong name. Following that, you may need to start whatever form of disciplinary action your family subscribes to.

Ralph de Boissière
Ralph Anthony Charles de Boissière (16 October 1907 – 16 February 2008) was an Trinidad-born Australian social realist novelist.
Ralph de Boissière was born in Port of Spain, the son of Armand de Boissière, a solicitor, and Maude Harper, an English woman who died three weeks later.[1] He attended Queen's Royal College and during this time discovered the Russian authors, Tolstoy, Turgenev, Gorky, Chekhov, Pushkin and Gogol, who were to remain a lasting influence:
" | They wrote of a vast country in which the weight of tsarism was destroying millions.... crying out against an entire system in which the guilt of the rulers was being ignored while millions were dying from neglect.... The writers of that time are still my favourites.... A hundred and fifty years later the crimes against mankind have multiplied and are choking us all. But not many today write with that call to humankind, that call which, though muffled by the censor, could still boom out its message. | " |
Initially he wished to become a concert pianist but on leaving school took a job as a salesman, which enlightened him to the living and working conditions of ordinary Trinidadians.[2] He then became involved in left-wing and trade union politics and also wrote for Trinidad's first literary magazine, The Beacon which he helped establish and where he met among others the writer C. L. R. James.[1][3] In 1935 he married Ivy Alcantara (died 1984) and they had two daughters.[1] But in 1947, having lost his job and unable to find another one because of his political activities, he and his family left the country for Chicago, afterwards moving to the Australian city of Melbourne in 1948. He found work in Australia as salesman and a factory-hand. Aged 42, de Boissière settled into a clerical job from which he retired in 1980.[2]
In Australia he joined the Communist Party and had his first novel, Crown Jewel published in 1952 by the leftist Australasian Book Society. Like all his work this depicts the struggles of the working class with realistic sympathy, culminating with a portrayal of a 1937 strike in Trinidad brutally put down by police shooting. Since then he has written four more novels and been translated into Polish, German, Russian, Bulgarian, Romanian, Czech and Chinese.[1] His work has been described by one critic as "combin[ing] social realism and political commitment with a concern for the culture of the feeling within the individual in a way that is unique not only among West Indian writers but among writers with a social conscience anywhere in the world."
Personal life[edit]
In 2007, his centenary year, Ralph de Boissière married his longtime companion, Dr. Annie Greet, his fourth novel, Call of the Rainbow, was published in Melbourne, and in November, he received an honorary Doctor of Literature from the University of Trinidad and Tobago. His autobiography, Life on the Edge, was posthumously published (edited by Kenneth Ramchand) in 2010.
De Boissière died in Melbourne on 16 February 2008.[4]

Good Looking males analysts in I-banking
IBSo I am a very attractive male (or at least people say I am, and girls literally threw themselves at me in college)
Will I be treated differently b/c of my looks in Investment Banking?
Will the other male analysts resent me or look up to me?
Will the straight MDs give me higher bonuses b/c subconsciously they have a crush on me? Or will I make them feel emasculated?
Will the gay MD's come on to me and make things uncomfortable?
So basically, I'm really worried that people will judge me on my looks rather than performance. Am I just being paranoid?

Damn, the soccer mom AND her sister. WFT! I guess, it's not like the soccer mom can call you out on it if she was(?) still married. All she can do is bitch to her sister.

I am still bfing. I am on the mini-pill. AF dropped back in for the 1st time around mid November, then again in December, then she decided not show in Jan and nothing so far this month. Due to severe pain DH and I have only dtd once since LO, in Dec and AF came after that. I'll also mention that we had tons of trouble conceiving and DH needed to be on a certain medication. And, I did not miss any pills that month. So, chances of pregnancy are quite low. I've heard of people having irreglar periods with mini pill + bfing... but AF missing for 2mo? Is that normal? I am thinking I'll call my ob/gyn tomorrow. Just curious if anyone got AF back, then had her dissapear without it being a pregnancy?
AF back and then gone again?

The Electronic Security Association has installed Marshall Marinace, owner of Yorktown Heights, N.Y.-based Marshall Alarm Systems, as its president for the next two years.
Marinace's presidency was one of five new officer appointments announced at ESA's annual membership meeting held during ESX 2014 in Nashville.
Marinace has been involved in the security industry for 38 years, and his alarm company was founded in 1976. He also has a longstanding involvement with ESA, serving in several different capacities with the association, including multiple terms as vice president, chairperson of the Membership Committee and liaison to the Standards and Fire Life Safety Committee, among other roles, according to an ESA news release.
"Having been involved with association boards and committees for the past 30 years and counting, my personal goal is to continue the legacy and ongoing development of strong leadership that has made ESA the foremost industry association," Marinance said in a prepared statement. "I am therefore honored and humbled to have been given the opportunity to fill the role as ESA president for the next term."
The following industry practitioners were also elected to ESA roles:
-- Dee Ann Harn, CEO of RFI Enterprises, elected to one-year term as vice president
-- Chris Mosley, president of Complete Security Systems, elected to two-year term as vice president
-- Angela White, executive vice president of Central 1 Security, elected to two-year term as vice president
-- Jon Sargent, industry relations / government affairs for Tyco Integrated Security, elected to two-year term as secretary
NASHVILLE—ADT says unscrupulous door-to-door sales reps have some new scams and the Electronic Security Association has updated its code of ethics to specifically ban them.
ALEXANDRIA, Va.—The Electronic Security Association is ramping up efforts in support of the Fire Sprinkler Incentive Act, a bill that would give installers of fire detection systems the same access to federal tax incentives currently available only to fire suppression companies.
ESA just wrapped up its annual Day on Capitol Hill, bringing to the attention of lawmakers several topics of consequence for the security industry, including school security.
The ESA has positioned itself as a partner with Security Industry Association in developing a comprehensive guide to help end users and legislators better understand what electronic security technologies they have at their disposal to bolster school security.
"Most school districts don't know what type of security to install, and many legislators don't understand all the technology that's out there and what exists," said Daniel Gelinas, who attended the event in his capacity as government liaison for Rapid Response Monitoring. ESA's Electronic Security Guidelines for Schools, he said, were designed as an authoritative resource to address that knowledge gap.
The timing of the school security guide is especially good, in light of the latest appropriations act cleared by Congress in January, which contains $75 million in funding for assessing methods to improve school security.
But ESA's activities on the Hill weren't limited just to school security matters. The association and industry members are also pushing for expanding the industry's access to the FBI's background check database, allowing security companies to better vet their employees for prior criminal activity.
Gelinas said the pair of bills addressing this (one in the House, another in the Senate) would not be a mandate. Rather, if enacted, they would allow security companies in the 26 states without the licensing requirement for the database to access it.
The organization was also in the Capitol promoting funding measures that would protect against elderly abuse through expanded use of video surveillance in nursing homes. Gelinas noted that this would not be a mandate for health care facilities, but would instead give concerned families the option to use electronic security systems to ensure that elderly relatives are getting proper medication and care.
The final area of focus for ESA was getting Congress to back a balanced approach for smoke alarms and other early fire detection systems, putting them on "the same footing as sprinklers" when it comes to receiving tax incentives and government grants, Gelinas said. That would involve amending the Fire Sprinkler Incentive Act to include life safety, fire and smoke alarms.
I plan to give more space to this final issue, and some of the aforementioned ones, in an upcoming legislative roundup.
IRVING, Texas—The Electronic Security Association announced March 26 that Honeywell Security has returned as the exclusive Platinum-level Executive Strategic Partner for 2014.
IRVING, Texas—The Electronic Security Association recently announced that Telguard, Axis Communications and Tri-Ed Distribution have agreed to support the association as gold-level executive strategic partners for 2014.
IRVING, Texas—The past year on Capitol Hill will be remembered for legislative inaction and partisan rifts so deep they culminated in a 16-day government shutdown.
Jay Hauhn, chief technology officer and VP of industry relations at Tyco Integrated Security, has been named president of CSAA. The announcement was made at the organization's recent annual meeting in Quebec City. Hauhn, who most recently served as vice president for the organization, assumes the role held by Robert Bean, whose term expires this year.
Hauhn is actively involved in several industry organizations. Since 2011, he has served as chairman of the board at The Security Industry Association, a role in which he has executive responsibility for all interaction with industry associations, regulatory agencies and state and federal governments. His current term as Chairman of the Board at SIA ends this year.
Hauhn also sits on the board of directors at the Security Industry Alarm Coalition, and he is chairman of the Electronic Security Association's government relations committee.
I'm scheduled to speak with Hauhn later this week about his expanded role at CSAA. In that interview, I'll discuss some of Hauhn's short- and long-term ambitions as the newly minted leader of the organization.
IRVING, Texas—The design of the 2014 ESA Leadership Summit is as inclusive as it is basic: The summit will cater to companies, whatever their size or revenue, with ambition to grow their accounts.
IRVING, Texas—An Electronic Security Association panel of experts recently completed the ESA Electronic Security Guidelines for Schools, a resource for school officials who are considering adding electronic security systems to existing security programs.

Prasat KravanPrasat Kravan is a small 10th century temple consisting of five reddish brick towers on a common terrace, located at Angkor, Cambodia south of the artificial lake or baray called Srah Srang. Its original Sanskrit name is unknown. The modern name in Khmer, "Prasat Kravan", means cardamom temple. The temple was dedicated to Vishnu in 921 CE, according to inscription on door jambs. East-facing brick towers containing unique bas-reliefs of Vishnu and Lakshmi rendered in brick - the only example of brick bas-reliefs in the Angkor area. Prasat Kravan was originally constructed by noblemen rather than a king and has a twin sister in Takeo Province south of Phnom Penh, Prasat Neang Khmau, which contained painting rather than bas-reliefs, some of which still survives. Prasat Kravan was reconstructed by archaeologists in the early 20th century. Look for modern replacement bricks labeled "CA.". The site was cleaned from vegetation in the Thirties by Henri Marchal and Georges Trouvè. Afterwards the towers were restored on Bernard Philippe Groslier's initiative from 1962 to 1966, adding some new bricks which are marked with a "CA" (meaning "Conservation Angkor"). The temple is oriented to the East and surrounded by a small moat. Its exterior is striking for its classical lines and symmetry, the central and the south tower have superstructures which take advantage of false prospective by simple means of diminishing tiers. The sanctuaries interiors are remarkable for the large bas relief depictions of Vishnu and Lakshmi that have been carved into the walls of reddish brick, connected by a vegetable compound. This type of sculptured artwork rather common in Cham temples, but almost unique in known Khmer monuments.

Ghana Empire
An advertisement is presented before the video. This two-minute video is about the Ghana empire, located in West Africa. It tells how it became a wealthy empire because they were in the center of the caravan routes and taxed other Muslims, during the gold-salt trade. The people of Ghana didn't want to adopt the Muslim religion, but later on, the desert Arabs invaded their territory and forced them to practice the Muslim religion, or else they would be killed.

"How Linking Changes the Role of Library Data: Examples from the Wider World" Thomas Baker (Dublin C
By: SWIB Discussion in the W3C Library Linked Data Incubator Group (2010-2011) tended to focus on the benefits of linked-data technology to libraries. This talk explores how library data - datasets, element sets, and value vocabularies - when linked, provide new forms of support to scholarly and cultural communities in the wider world. Well-maintained value vocabularies, their concepts identified by URI and backed by institutional persistence policies, can function as magnets, forming hubs of in

Rudyard Kipling
A Death-Bed
This is the State above the Law.
The State exists for the State alone."
[This is a gland at the back of the jaw,
And an answering lump by the collar-bone.]
Some die shouting in gas or fire;
Some die silent, by shell and shot.
Some die desperate, caught on the wire -
Some die suddenly. This will not.
"Regis suprema voluntas Lex"
[It will follow the regular course of--throats.]
Some die pinned by the broken decks,
Some die sobbing between the boats.
Some die eloquent, pressed to death
By the sliding trench as their friends can hear
Some die wholly in half a breath.
Some--give trouble for half a year.
"There is neither Evil nor Good in life
Except as the needs of the State ordain."
[Since it is rather too late for the knife,
All we can do is to mask the pain.]
Some die saintly in faith and hope--
One died thus in a prison-yard--
Some die broken by rape or the rope;
Some die easily. This dies hard.
"I will dash to pieces who bar my way.
Woe to the traitor! Woe to the weak! "
[Let him write what he wishes to say.
It tires him out if he tries to speak.]
Some die quietly. Some abound
In loud self-pity. Others spread
Bad morale through the cots around .
This is a type that is better dead.
"The war was forced on me by my foes.
All that I sought was the right to live."
[Don't be afraid of a triple dose;
The pain will neutralize all we give.
Here are the needles. See that he dies
While the effects of the drug endure. . . .
What is the question he asks with his eyes?--
Yes, All-Highest, to God, be sure.]

Aqir, also spelled Akir and Akkur, was a Palestinian Arab village in the Ramle Subdistrict, located 9 km southwest of Ramla and 1 km north of Wadi al-Nasufiyya[4] (today called Nahal Ekron).
Until the early 20th century, Aqir was thought to lie at the site of the ancient Philistine city of Ekron, that has now been identified as Tel Mikne, 9 km to the south.[5] The error seems rooted in antiquity; The Romans referred to the village as Accaron.[4] In the 10th century, Al-Muqaddasi writes of Aqir (Ekron) as "A large village with a mosque. Its inhabitants are much given to good works. The bread here is not to be surpassed for quality. The village lies on the high road from Ar-Ramlah to Makka."[6][7] Yakut called it Al Akir, and said it belonged to Ar Ramlah.[8]
In 1596, Aqir (Amir) appeared in Ottoman tax registers as being in the Nahiya of Ramla of the Liwa of Gaza. It had a population of 31 Muslim households and paid taxes on wheat, barley, and other produce.[9]
The scholar Edward Robinson passed by the village in 1838, and described it as being surrounded by "well-tilled gardens and fields of the richest soil". The village itself was described as being of "considerable size", built of bricks or adobe.[10] In the 1870s, Aqir was described as "a mud village on low rising ground, with cactus hedges surrounding its gardens, and a well to the north."[11]
At the time of the 1922 census of Palestine, Aqir had a population of 1155 Muslims.[12] This had increased to 1689 Muslims and 2 Christians by the census of 1931.[13]
Between 1941 and 1948, the RAF Aqir airfield was located nearby. In 1945, the village had a population of 2,480 with two elementary schools: one for boys, founded in 1921 which had an enrollment of 391 boys in 1945 and a second for girls, which had an enrollment of 46 girls in 1945. There were two mosques in the village.[3]
In 1944/45, the village had 1,300 dunums of land used for citrus and banana cultivation, while 8,968 dunums were used for cereals, and 914 dunums irrigated or used for orchards.[3][14]
1948 and afterward[edit]
The village was depopulated during the 1947–48 Civil War in Mandatory Palestine on 6 May 1948 during Operation Barak by the Givati Brigade. The remaining village houses was taken over by Kiryat Ekron soon after.[15]
According to the Palestinian historian Walid Khalidi, the village remaining structures on the village land were in 1992:
A number of small houses remain, several of which are occupied by Jewish families. One is a cement house with a gabled roof and rectangular doors and windows, another is similar in its features, but its roof is flat. Cypresses, cycamores and cactuses grow on the site. The surrounding lands are cultivated by Israelis.[3]

As far as I'm concerned the chivito is the king of the sandwich world. A nice Cuban or banh mi are close runners up.
The Braeburn Lodge between Whitehorse and Dawson City, Yukon has THE BEST rueben sandwich. They use thick slabs of homemade sourdough bread and it's a meal for two. They even have an airstrip across the highway and it's an official stop for the Yukon Quest annual dogsledding race.
Peep my nanobrewery: http://crookedrunbrewing.com Crooked Run Brewing: Traditional ales, local ingredients
The Monte Cristo is the best sandwich ever invented. Turkey, cheese, deep fried, with raspberry jam. I like all the ones mentioned above, but they are pedestrian next to the Monte Cristo. Bennigans (are they still around?) had a great one.
I'm a big sandwich guy myself. I really like muffaletta, a nice rare roast beef and butter on a homemade roll, or grilled cuban style sandwich, but my favorite of all has to be the pastrami reuben from Zingerman's Deli in Ann Arbor. They have the best pastrami I have ever eaten, anywhere, but you have to get the full fat cut. It may even be better just to buy a loaf of their rye, a pound of their pastrami, and a pound o their swiss, and take it home and make 3 or 4 great hot sandwiches from it. If you like pastrami, corned beef, or a just a great deli sandwich, Zingerman's is great.
