Description This application is a continuation of, and claims priority to, commonly owned and U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/376,924 filed 27 Feb. 2003 now U.S. Pat. No. 7,379,613, which claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60/360,147 filed 27 Feb. 2002. Both of the above-identified patent applications are incorporated herein by reference. Wavefront coding is a set of specialized aspheric optics, detection and signal processing. In the prior art, the signal processing is dictated by the aspheric optics such that the spatial blur caused by wavefront coding is removed. The aspheric optics �code� the wavefront so that the sampled image is relatively insensitive to misfocus-related aberrations. The intermediate image from the coded wavefront (i.e., the image sampled by the detector) is not sharp and clear. Signal processing processes data from the detector to remove the spatial blur caused by the aspheric optics, to �decode� wavefront coding. By way of example, In the prior art, optical element 110 and detector 120 do not necessarily match the available processing capability of image processing section 140; accordingly, image degradation may be noted within final image 141. If optical element 110 and detector 120 are matched to the available processing capability, it may require a very complex and costly hardware implementation in terms of detector capability, optical design of element 110, and/or computer processing architectures associated with image processing section 140. As described herein below, wavefront coding imaging systems are disclosed with jointly optimized aspheric optics and electronics. In one example, the optics and electronics are jointly optimized for desired optical and/or mechanical characteristics, such as to control aberrations, minimize physical lens count, loosen mechanical tolerances, etc. In another example, the optics and electronics are jointly optimized with targeted emphasis on electronic parameters, so as to reduce the amount of silicon and/or memory required in hardware processing; this serves to optimize image quality in the presence of non-ideal detectors and/or to optimize image quality with a fixed hardware processing solution (e.g., a low cost solution). An emphasis on optimizing electronic processing is for example important in imaging applications that involve high unit quantities and dedicated hardware processing. Examples of such applications include miniature cameras for cell phones, video conferencing, and personal communication devices. By jointly optimizing the optics and mechanics with the electronic parameters, high quality imaging systems are made that are inexpensive in terms of physical components, assembly, and image processing. In certain aspects therefore, wavefront coded optical imaging systems are disclosed with optimized image processing. In one aspect, the image processing is optimized for hardware implementations in which digital filters have filter tap values that are a specialized, reduced set of integers. These integers in turn affect the processing hardware to reduce complexity, size and/or cost. Examples of such reduced set filter tap values include �power of two� values, sums and differences of power of two values, and filters where differences of adjacent filter values are powers of two. The restrictions associated with these example reduced sets operate to reduce the number of multiplications (or generalized partial products summations) associated with image processing. The filter tap values may associate with the spatial location of the filter kernel. The dynamic range of the filter tap values may also be a function of the spatial position relative to positioning of the optical elements and wavefront coding element. In one example, values near the geometric center of the filter kernel have a larger dynamic range and values near the edge of the filter kernel have a smaller dynamic range, useful when the wavefront coding response tends to converge toward small values as distance from the kernal center increases. The filter tap values may also be a function of multi-color imaging channel characteristics since different wavelength bands respond differently when processed by a detector or a human eye. By way of example, two easy to describe optical forms of wavefront coded optics that are suitable for system optimization herein include weighted sums of separable powers, p(x,y)=Sum ai [sign(x)|x|^bi+sign(y)|y|^bi], and the cosinusoidal forms p(r,theta)=Sum ai r^bi*cos(ci*theta+phii). In one aspect, an image processing method is provided, including the steps of: wavefront coding a wavefront that forms an optical image; converting the optical image to a data stream; and processing the data stream with a reduced set filter kernel to reverse effects of wavefront coding and generate a final image. The step of processing may include the step of utilizing a filter kernel that is complementary to an MTF of the optical image. The steps of wavefront coding, converting and processing may occur such that the MTF is spatially correlated to mathematical processing of the data stream with the reduced set filter kernel. In one aspect, the method includes the step of formulating the reduced set filter kernel to an MTF and/or PSF of the optical image resulting from phase modification of the wavefront through constant profile path optics. The method may include the step of processing the data with a reduced set filter kernel consisting of a plurality or regions wherein at least one of the regions has zero values. The step of wavefront coding may include the step of wavefront coding the wavefront such that a PSF of the optical image spatially correlates to the regions of the reduced set filter kernel. In another aspect, the method includes the step of modifying one of the wavefront coding, converting and processing steps and then optimizing and repeating (in a design loop) one other of the wavefront coding, converting and processing steps. For example, the step of processing may include utilizing a reduced set filter kernel with a weighted matrix. In another aspect, an image processing method is provided, including the steps of: wavefront coding a wavefront that forms an optical image; converting the optical image to a data stream; and processing the data stream with a color-specific filter kernel to reverse effects of wavefront coding and generate a final image. In another aspect, an image processing method is provided, including the steps of: wavefront coding a wavefront that forms an optical image; converting the optical image to a data stream; colorspace converting the data stream; separating spatial information and color information of the colorspace converted data stream into one or more separate channels; deblurring one or both of the spatial information and the color information; recombining the channels to recombine deblurred spatial information with deblurred color information; and colorspace converting the recombined deblurred spatial and color information to generate an output image. The method may include a first step of filtering noise from the data stream. In one aspect, the method generates an MTF of the optical image such that spatial correlation exists with the first step of filtering noise. A second step of filtering noise may occur by processing the recombined deblurred spatial and color information. This second step of filtering noise may include the step of utilizing a complement of an MTF of the optical image. In another aspect, an optical imaging system is provided for generating an optical image. A wavefront coding element codes a wavefront forming the optical image. A detector converts the optical image to a data stream. An image processor processes the data stream with a reduced set filter kernel to reverse effects of wavefront coding and generate a final image. The filter kernel may be spatially complementary to a PSF of the optical image. A spatial frequency domain version of the filter kernel may be complementary to an MTF of the optical image. In another aspect, an electronic device is provided, including a camera having (a) a wavefront coding element that phase modifies a wavefront that forms an optical image within the camera, (b) a detector for converting the optical image to a data stream, and (c) an image processor for processing the data stream with a reduced set filter kernel to reverse effects of wavefront coding and generate a final image. The electronic device is for example one of a cell phone and a teleconferencing apparatus. In another aspect, an image processing method includes the steps of: wavefront coding a wavefront with constant profile path optics that forms an optical image; converting the optical image to a data stream; and processing the data stream to reverse effects of wavefront coding and generate a final image. More particularly, digital filtering is a sum of products for both linear and non-linear filtering. In the example of Those skilled in the art appreciate that the arithmetic logic of In comparison, using the reduced set filter kernel with power of two values, ALU 560A has just one shift. Even a more sophisticated implementation of generalized ALU 550, such as a vector machine or pipelined device, would likely require more resources than such a single shift. Another specialized ALU 560B of Wavefront coded optical imaging system 800 is thus optimized to the reduced geometric set of filter kernels implemented in hardware (e.g., via filter kernel 830 and image processing section 840). Reduced geometric set kernels are particularly important in systems with specialized hardware processors and are used with a variety of different wavefront coded optics and detectors, or used with optics that change characteristics, like wavefront coded zoom optics. By way of example, optics 801 and optical element 810 adjust the depth of field and also adjust scaling within the kernel size. The prescribed dynamic range is therefore achieved by positioning the coefficient values of filter kernel 830 in appropriate spatial location. By designing optics 801 and optical element 810 such that the scaled kernel values lie within regions of adequate dynamic range, image processing section 840 is optimized for such optics 801 and element 810 given the constraints of the largest kernel. While different filter kernels have different values within the geometric regions A-D, the arrangement of values is optimized with respect to the capabilities of image processing section 840. By way of illustration, the rotation of optical element 810 (e.g., by 45 degrees) would dictate an equivalent rotation of the kernel; this would not be permitted since the B regions would then lie in a processing space with only near-zero coefficients rather than the moderate dynamic range of the B region coefficients. The rotation would only be permitted if the processing space and kernel space were both rotated. More particularly, the optical systems of Numerical values provide an even clearer example for a single-adder differential tap. Consider the coefficient sequence [3, −5, 11, 7, −1, 0]. If the input pixel value is p, then the first tap generates 3p. The next tap generates −5p, or alternatively using 3p from the previous step, generates −8p and adds the two values to obtain 3p−8p=−5p. The coefficient II is similarly obtained from the previous −5p by adding 16p. Note that in this case a single shift (p to 16p) and a single addition achieve a scaling factor of 11�, whereas traditional implementation of 11� based on partial products requires 8+2+1, or two shifts and two summations. The example continues with 7p=(11p−4p) and −1p=(7p−8p). In some cases, the difference may be zero, in which case the gradient kernel falls to the detail of the scaling kernel which is described in One method of designing certain of the wavefront coded aspheric optical elements (e.g., distinct elements 1110 of By way of example, one weight matrix for a generalized integer filter (e.g., utilized by logic of In one example, in a reduced set filter kernel utilizing sums of powers of two, the weight matrix may have zero value for integers that are a power of two, a larger value for integers that are constructed from the sum or difference of two power of two values (such as 6=4+2 or 7=8−1), and still larger values for integers that are constructed from three power of two values (such as 11=8+2+1, or 11=8+4−1). When both positive and negative values of power of two are used, the weight for integers such as seven are reduced, since 7=8−1. By way of contrast, the general implementation (e.g., The weight matrix can also be used to optimize a gradient filter (e.g., filter 1130A, With further regard to The YIQ colorspace is one of many linear and non-linear colorspace conversions available. One method for performing colorspace conversion is to select a single space to represent the entire image. Wavefront coded optics and processors can cooperate such that an optimal, dynamic, colorspace conversion can be achieved that reduces the amount of signal processing and improves image quality. In In general, DCS can provide combined noise reduction, color-plane array interpolation, and reduced-cost image deblurring. The DCS algorithm is appropriate for a variety of processing approaches within software and hardware based systems. One version of DCS implements dynamic linear colorspace conversion. Other versions of DCS implement dynamic non-linear colorspaces. DCS may be combined or preceded by non-linear colorspace conversions or other transformations, such as HSV, depending on processing system resources and application goal. The general DCS algorithm can be understood through correlation and principal component analysis of An estimate of the principal components 1603C of the correlation matrix 1603B forms the optimal colorspace transformation matrix for this particular region and channel selection. Obtaining the spatial intensity image 1632 in Upon DCS transformation, it is not however guaranteed that only the spatial channel 1632 is to be processed by the spatial channel blur removal function 1642. Each block or region that was transformed contains its own unique mapping matrix but all regions share a common spatial image. In many cases, the optimal transformation for a given region does not achieve complete transformation of all spatial information to the spatial image. In such a case, deblurring of the color channels may be made by blur removal process block 1644. Final image assembly is then performed by �coloring� the dynamic regions using respective matrices of colorspace inversion 1650. The wavefront coded imaging systems discussed herein may have certain advantages when used within electronic devices such as cell phones, video conferencing apparatus and miniature cameras. Optical lens 2402 is also wavefront coded; one surface 2414 of lens 2402 is for example a wavefront coded aspheric optical element. Accordingly, optical lens 2402 and element 2404 may function as the optics and wavefront coded elements discussed hereinabove (e.g., optics 201, element 210 of The effects of wavefront coding of optical lens 2402 and post-processing by microprocessor 2410 are for example constructed and arranged to reduce misfocus-related aberrations such as defocus, field curvature, or manufacturing and assembly related misfocus. Accordingly, electronic device 2400 may employ a single (plastic) optical element 2402 without the need for other complex optical elements. Moreover, by selecting the appropriate filter kernel (e.g., a reduced set filter kernel with power of two kernel values) and the corresponding phase mask (i.e., surface wavefront coded element 2414), microprocessor 2410 may operate with reduced processor load and memory requirement. In one example, microprocessor 2410 employs image processing section 540 and kernel 530, As those in the art appreciate, electronic device 2400 may further include other electronics 2420 to incorporate other desired operation and functionality, for example cell phone functionality. It is therefore apparent that certain trade-offs or �optimizations� may be made within the above described wavefront coded optical imaging systems, to achieve image characteristic goals and/or cost goals, for example. By way of example, consider In certain embodiments herein, the form of optics and optical elements used in the above-described imaging systems are also optimized. Such form is for example to provide low variability to misfocus-like aberrations, high MTFs, and low noise gain values. As described in more detail below, these optics and optical elements may make up, or be part of, imaging systems such as microscopes, endoscopes, telescopes, machine vision systems, miniature cameras, cell phone cameras, video cameras, digital cameras, barcode scanners, biometrics systems, etc. In two easy to describe examples, optical forms of wavefront coded optics suitable for system optimization herein may include weighted sums of separable powers, p(x,y)=Sum ai [sign(x)|x|^bi+sign(y)|y|^bi] and the cosinusoidal forms p(r,theta)=Sum ai r^bi*cos(ci*theta+phii). As described in more detail below, the optics also may include specialized contour surfaces (sometimes denoted herein as �constant profile path optics�) that provide phase variation within the wavefront coded optical element (e.g., element 210, As noted above, these wavefront coded imaging systems have non-traditional aspheric optics and image processing. One possible goal for such systems is to produce a final image that is substantially insensitive to misfocus-like aberrations. This insensitivity supports (a) a large depth of field or depth of focus, (b) tolerance to fabrication and/or assembly errors that for example create misfocus-like aberrations, and/or (c) optically-generated misfocus-like aberrations (e.g., spherical aberrations, astigmatism, petzval curvature, chromatic aberration, temperature-related misfocus). Internal optics within such imaging systems form images with specialized blur that may also be insensitive to these misfocus-like aberrations. Moreover, the effects of coma can also be reduced within such wavefront coded optical imaging systems. After capture by a detector (e.g., a digital detector 220 capturing the intermediate image to generate a digital data stream 225, The design process to enable such wavefront coded imaging systems may be such that the optical system is insensitive to misfocus-like aberrations, the size and shape of the point spread function (PSF) is compact and constant as a function wavelength, field angle, object position, etc, and the resulting MTF has high values. The following constant profile path optics provide efficient designs for use in such systems. Certain constant profile path optics are based on parametrically efficient descriptions (e.g., low number of parameters) of optical form; such form may for example support high performance optical imaging systems with selected imaging and/or cost characteristics. In general, these parametrically efficient forms are not required. That is, the surface height of each part of the aspheric surface can be designated as an independent variable used in design and optimization; however, the number of variables to optimize this general case is extremely large and impractical. Constant profile path optics thus facilitate a powerful and general optical form for use in design and optimization. In one embodiment, constant profile path optics include aspheric optical elements where the surface height is defined along paths and where the functional form, or profile, of the surface is the same along normalized version of the paths. The actual surface height varies from path to path, but the functional form or profile along each path does not. Such surface profiles on an optical element operate to modify phase of a wavefront within the optical system; image effects caused by these phase changes are then reversed in image processing, e.g., through operation of the filter kernel. By way of example, when certain constant profile path optics have modified wavefront phase within the optical imaging system, the resulting MTF at the intermediate image (captured by a detector) correlates to the functional and spatial characteristics of the filter kernel used in image processing. The constant profile path optics and the filter kernel may therefore be complementary to one another to provide the desired imaging characteristics. Four examples 2600A-2600D of constant profile path optics are shown in As those skilled in the art will appreciate, one of several variations of the path profiles shown in The type of path traced in constant profile path optics can also change over different regions, as in The parameters that describe the specialized surfaces of In one embodiment, the mathematical description of a surface of one region of a constant profile path optic is described as:
Consider the optical surface of 2600A, where the paths define open sides of square contours. This leads to four regions, the left side, right side, top side, and bottom side. One example of a mathematical description of the surface profile along the paths of the four regions is:
Each path can be modified by a gain or constant term without altering the functional form of the surface along each path. One example of the gain applied across the paths in a region can be mathematically described as
If the functional form of the surface along the paths is a polynomial of second order, or less, then the second derivative along the normalized paths is a constant. In this special case, the constant profile path optics may for example be denoted as �constant power path optics.� Constant power path optics are particularly effective forms for the wavefront coded optics. In terms of optical parameters, a second order polynomial C(a) can be described as:
For certain optical imaging systems, such higher order terms can be important. If the tilt parameter is non-zero, then optical surfaces with discontinuities may be described. Given the high degree of accuracy that free-form surfaces can be fabricated today, surfaces with discontinuities need not be avoided. For certain optical systems, the across-the-paths term D is chosen so that the central region of the optical surface is flat (or nearly flat). Often the slope of D can become quite large near the edge of the surface. The central region may also process optical imaging rays that need not change in order to control misfocus aberrations, as rays outside of the central region typically cause the misfocus effects within imaging systems. Since central rays contribute less to misfocus effects then the outer rays, the shape of the contours can change for the central and outer regions to affect these rays differently. This allows shaping of the in- and out-of-focus PSFs, high MTFs, and customization of the power spectrum for digital filtering. The power spectrum of the digital filter modifies the power spectrum of the additive noise after filtering. Noise reduction techniques after filtering are thus increasingly effective by jointly designing the optics and digital processing for noise reduction and imaging, such as described above. Examples of Constant Profile Path Optics Certain constant profile path optics examples described below follow the form S(R,theta,a,b)=C(a)D(b) where the particular paths used are those of profile 2600A, with each side of the square contour defining one of four regions. Another example of constant profile path optics is shown in After using the 2D filter of The mathematical form of the contour optics of Constant profile path optics may be designed with specialized techniques that allow optimization with non-ideal optics that can have large amounts of aberrations, vignetting, and loose tolerances. These techniques allow optical system design that is not practical by traditional analytical methods. In process 4200, optics are modified (in design) and the loop may repeat, as shown. For example, process 4200 includes step 4202 to design constant profile path optics. With a model for the optical surfaces (step 4202), the effects of the lens aberrations can be added (step 4204) with information about the digital detector (step 4206) in order to accurately simulate the sampled PSF and MTF. These lens aberrations are in general a function of field angle, wavelength, object position and zoom position; the aberrations can also be a function of the particular surface form of the constant profile path optic (step 4202). One aberration considered in design process step 4204 is vignetting. While vignetting is often used in design of traditional optics to trade off light gathering for sharpness, vignetting within wavefront coding optics, can lead to a poor match between optical design and the actual optical system. The optical surfaces and aberrations that lead to sampled PSFs can be either simulated through ray-based methods or Fourier Transform methods depending on the speed of the lens being designed and the spatial resolution of the digital detector. Both of these general types of PSF simulation methods are well known to those skilled in the art of optical simulation. After the sampled PSFs and MTFs have been simulated (steps 4204, 4206), a digital filter is used (step 4208) to remove wavefront coding blur. This digital filter can be general and calculated for each iteration in design process 4200 or can be fixed or limited in form. An example of a limited form digital filter is a rectangularly separable filter. If the digital filter is limited in this way, the design of the constant profile path optics may be optimized for minimum rank PSFs and MTFs since the rank of the separable filter is 1. Other limited digital filters are filters where costs are assigned to particular filter values and sequences of filter values in order to optimize the implementation (e.g., hardware) of the image processing section. These costs may be reduced or increased as part of design process 4200. Further examples of limited digital filters are those that have particular power spectrum characteristics. Since the additive noise is modified by the power spectrum of the digital filter, controlling the characteristics of the filter controls the characteristics of the additive noise after digital filtering. Noise Reduction techniques can be optimized jointly with the characteristics of the noise by limited the digital filter. After the sampled PSFs/MTFs have been filtered (step 4208), a quality assessment is performed (step 4210). Assessment 4210 is typically system and application specific but may include (a) the quality of the filtered PSFs/MTFs both within and outside of the design range and/or (b) the characteristics of the digital filter (and/or its implementation and/or noise effects). The quality assessment is then used with non-linear optimization to modify the optics and repeat the iteration through process 4200. The modified optics can include particular surfaces that contain the wavefront coding as well as other surfaces, and/or thickness and distances of elements within the optical system. The parameters of the functional form along the paths and across the path amplitude can be similarly optimized. Changes may be made in the above methods and systems without departing from the scope hereof. It should thus be noted that that the matter contained in the above description or shown in the accompanying drawings should be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense. For example, those skilled in the art should appreciate that although the wavefront coded element is often shown separate from the optics within an imaging system (e.g., element 210 separate from optics 201), these components may be combined as a single item or group of items without departing from the scope hereof, for example as shown in Patent Citations

sub box construction
Am i the only person with a stroker pro 15? I cant find much of nothing when it comes to what others are doing with this $1400 sub. I have it in a ported bot that is about four ft. with two ports four inches wide sixteen inches long. its in the back of an extended cab silverado and it takes the place of the back seat. the box stretches from one side of the truck to the other and the center is about ten inches taller kind of like a center console with the sub front firing at the front center console. it is hard to figure out the volume because the box has many angles. The bass is verry deep and powerful but distortion starts a lot sooner than i think is should. it wont get as loud as i think and im not getting anywhere close to the 40mm of x-max that is claimed.the sound pressure makes ears hurt but the loudness is weak.its powered by a lanzar mxa282 wires at 1650 watts x 2 rms at 2 ohms. any suggestions or tricks would be greatly appreciated!

youre just tickling those subs with that power, which more than likely isnt the full wattage....id expect maybe around 1600 watts total (800 x 2) from that amp if your lucky.
if your ports are round tubes, you dont have enough port area...you need atleast 64 sqin (14 sqin per cuft) at around 18-22 inches long... right now you have around 25sqin (if they are round tubes) where are the ports located? have a pic of the box? if you think your ears hurt now, there really going to hurt after you re-port ... the white line is where you are now, the red line is where you will be...with a 40hz tuning. |

We all know that fear, anxiety, and worry limit our potential, harm our relationships, affect our ability to thrive financially, and hold us back from fulfilling our life purpose.
Yet sometimes they get the best of us. It can be challenging to pull out of fear, anxiety or worry especially when they feel really real.
The last few days I was encountering a lot of unexpected anxiety about a choice I made. And the funny thing is that the choice is actually creating really exciting things in my life. So why was I so concerned?

While there is no proven correlation between the quality of one's educational institution and the quality of one's professional competence, it is often an indicator. Medical schools have various levels of selectivity (some are harder to get into than others), and both the quality of their clinical training and level of research are measured. Additional medical training in both residency and fellowships and the facilities they are conducted at also provide a history of the doctors' level of training and experience.

Why do people continue to spout these canards about Corey Patterson? The facts are easily verifiable. In fact, Corey Patterson was essentially the lead-off batter for the majority of games in April only (17 times out of 29 games). After April ended, he only led off 15 more times over the remaining 133 games. And he walked seven times during the month of April. So none of your statement is true.
In fact, Patterson wasn't even the Red with the most times leading off that season. It was Jerry Hairston (44), followed by Patterson (32), Dickerson (25), Bruce (22) and Freel (20), rounded out by five other players in the remaining 19 games.
It really is very simple to verify these things. These perceptions are clouded for many by their absolute disdain for anything Dusty Baker did while manager of the Reds.
[I see that Edabbs44 beat me to the punch, pointing out that Patterson didn't lead off anywhere near as much as folks say]

Bespoked 2015
Constructors Challenge
Bespoked is celebration of handmade bicycles and those who make them.
Bespoked remains a UK showcase for the best framebuilders in the world, but the best keep getting better and the world of handmade bicycles keeps on growing. So there's a second venue at the Arnolfini; one of Europe's leading centres for the contemporary arts. In a fantastic waterside location at the heart of Bristol's harbourside, it will host two new events: The Bespoked Handmade Cycling Goods and Design Show, and the Bespoked Constructors' Challenge.
Brunel's Old Station will be bursting at the seams with bicycle framebuilders displaying work of a higher standard and greater diversity than ever before. To purchase tickets for this event please click here
The Bespoked Handmade Goods and Design Show, at the Arnolfini is a showcase for cycling's most beautiful and desirable accessories, design and apparel. With such burgeoning talent amongst the world's independent makers of bicycle goods, components and clothing Bespoked 2015 will highlight them in their own right; in this Grade II listed, fully accessible building with free public entry.
The Bespoked Constructors' Challenge aims to broaden and diversity the appeal of bespoke bicycles. Five teams of builders, designers and end users have been chosen to exhibit a custom-built bicycle created for a specific and real task. The event will demonstrate the diversity of possible uses for this simple and adaptable machine - and that they form a viable alternative to the car for everyday work and daily life.
A·retrospective·of the cycling photographer Camille McMillan's work completes the line up at the Arnolfini.

Using the Sponsor-User-Programmer Model to Improve the Testing Process
Free registration required
Executive Summary
This paper describes the Sponsor-User-Programmer (SUP) model, which offers simplified and structured views of certain aspects of software requirements. The principles of the model are based on the idea that there are three major players or stakeholders in software development - the client or sponsor, the user, and the programmer or software developer. Each of these people has his or her own vision and documentation about the behavior and features of the software that is being developed. The SUP model brings together software requirements, classifying them in easily perceived classes according to which stakeholders agree with them and whether they are realized.

After an unscheduled week off, the Harrison County Thorobreds are back on the field this Saturday for their first district encounter of the season when they play host to Pendleton County.
Last Friday, the Breds had their game with Bardstown cancelled as a district-wide flu epidemic forced school officials to dismiss from school on Thursday and Friday.
The edict meant that all school activities were postponed as well.
The day after my niece's wedding, my sister and I went to the California desert town of Temecula.
When I was growing up, Temecula was nothing but sand and tumbleweeds. Today, it looks like most every modern suburban sprawl with a CVS and Burger King on nearly every corner.
My sister and I went to the restored old town of Temecula, with its cute boutiques, restaurants and antique stores.

The Harrison County Thorobreds soccer team notched its second victory of the year on Monday night on the road upending host Mason County 3-1.
All four goals were scored in the first half as the Breds improved to 2-10 on the year. The Royals slipped to 7-4-2.
Lance McIlvain, Josh Young and Kyle Foster each found the back of the net for the Breds. Young and Jeff Faulconer were both credited with assists.
Traffic signals and stop signs are placed at intersections for a reason, and the reason is so that people can proceed through the intersection without running into another vehicle. The problem that we have here in our community is that a lot of people driving today do not stop. It seems that everyone is in a hurry for whatever reason.

Re: Need Help with Trial
2013-03-27T20:53:02Z in response to SystemAdminHi Steve. Since Citrix released their version 3.4 of receiver, there have been performance problems with the sandbox images. We have found that if you revert back to version 3.3, the issue is resolved. Is this something you can try? Once an image is assigned to you from Developerworks, you cannot get back in if you get logged out. The image will recycle itself after 4 hours and will reset the password. You will need to go back in to dWorks and request a new seat.
Hope this helps.

Is she eating anything else like treats etc? Just not her meals, that way you'll know if she's off food or not. If so then I'd take a trip to the vets just incase there's something going on. Hope she is eating soon I know it's a worry.

Daisy and Sadie are picky eaters along with digestive issues. We have tried many different kinds of food and they just turn up their nose. But we finally found Fresh Pets Vital Complete. It is not rolled but little chunks of beef, salmon, chicken with spinach and cranberries. They both just love it and come running when I set their dishes down.

I would first do a complete physical & a urine sample---if I ruled out all medical issues (esp. a BAT test) I would then look at the size of the dry food she is getting. Liesl's mouth is very small & she can't do larger kibble even though she is l 1/2 yrs old.
I agree that a healthy dog will not starve themselves. How old is she & how much does she weigh? Maybe you are expecting her to eat too much? Some dogs just don't need that much food. I would definitely add Animal Essentials vit. supplement w/pbiotics.

From the posts - all the "she is hungry but turning her nose up at this and that" - even things she used to eat or once liked....
Turning her nose especially up over chicken, and potatoes (you said she likes potatoes).... I'm glad you are going to the vet. I would ask for blood panels and a BAT. Make sure to take Dr. Center's notes on a proper BAT test since most vets do them wrong. But a dog being "picky" to this extent - to me is not behavioral. I thought that with Grace... and many people told me I was just spoiling her, to do tough love. Turns out she was very sick.

I'm concerned that it's not behavioral because she will turn down a smorgasbord of food. I don't care if she's spoiled, at this point I will give her what she will eat. Thank you for the advice on the BAT, I will definitely take it!!!

Best Emily Schaffer Poems
Lightning dances in the sky, Thunder shatters the silent night. The clouds roar with anger, As the light and the darkness fight. From the flashing sky, The blood and tears are falling hard. Her pride and dignity holds firmly, Though she's severely scared. The storm calms as she falls, Oh, so late his anger ends. His tears fall gently as dawn arrives, With her blood, they slowly blend.

I've always liked the idea of "jackknife" picksets, although in reality most come up quite short of what I would consider to be a high quality set. However, recently browsing around I came across set I had never seen before that looks a bit more promising than most others. I was wondering though, if anyone else here has ever used it or heard anything about it. It can be found here:
It is under the heading "Folding Pocket Pickset". An image of it can be seen here:
I'm thinking about getting one ot try out, but before I do, I was just hoping to hear some others' opinions on it.
Thanks for any information,

I'd been wanting to try this golden breakfast porridge (kaachi) from Honest & Tasty since I read about it last year. It looks warm and comforting for the cold days we are having now. Her photos make it look enticing too. My photo doesn't do it justice. I used grass-fed butter and didn't add the turmeric because I was cooking for two (and the other person wouldn't have liked it). So it is missing that lovely golden color. The consistency is like creamy mashed potatoes, and the flavor is like farina. I like my farina with butter, so I ate the kaachi with only butter and a sprinkle of sugar. Definitely a heart-warming dish for the winter!

I saw some posts on a Blade 350 QX Facebook group that if you have a DX6i, since it doesn't have a 3 way switch, it's not going to work with all the modes. Supposedly that's why they are including a DX5e with the RTF.
Can anyone confirm this? I was set to get the BNF and a new DX6i, but now I'm not sure. |

My question is about the TX too, up till now all my quads and helis have been ready to fly, so I have a good collection of cheap radios, I would like to end that cycle now and get a good radio that will work with the Blade quad and buy the BNF version when released. I also would like it to work with my V911 and V949. What does everyone recommend, I see a lot of people using Flysky/Turnigy radios, the Blade comes with a Spektrum, Any advantage of one over the other?
Thanks, Dennis from Orlando Quads eat 4 channel helis |
Aug 19, 2013, 03:45 PM | ||
My personal opinion, if you want a very good radio use the FrSky Taranis and modules, if you want a cheap and good radio but worst than the FrSky use the Turnigy 9XR and modules, dont need to have more than 1 Tx... You can get a OrangeRX DSMX/DSM2 module for 20$ with a buddycode on Hobbyking... |

Lost quad
I was out at the park flying today, had my Hubsan X4 way to high, wind caught it and carried it toward the lake where it lost signal and fell, I thought it came down near the waters edge but I never could find it, I did find this guy near where it came down ( picture below) , in Florida trees are not the only thing that can end your flying day. The Blade QX 350 with it's Smart Mode and stick relativity would had not suffered this end.

Good thing it wasn't a $1000+ quad! I've lost 2 different aircraft in my R/C days. One was a Blade MCX2 which is a micro co-axial heli that I thought I could take really high and control in the wind and a foamy airplane that glided into our city dump (our flying field is "kinda" close to the dump site) due to servo failure.. Either way, it's a sad sight to see your baby fly away into Neverland. ---------------------------------------------------------- Just a curious, innocent question: What would the Smart Mode and stick relativity have done for signal loss?? Did losing orientation cause you to get too far for a signal or did you intentionally fly that high? What radio transmitter were you using? Was it 2.4? Thanks, Looking to buy one of these as soon as its out |

01-22-10, 03:25 PM Thread Author #5Before there have quality problems with Blackberry's built in Mexico. I'm seeing if RIM has improved its QA from Mexico. If you don't have anything to add to this post that is helpful, please keep your snide remarks to yourself.

my first 9700 from Mexico had a wobbly trackpad and sticky keys. my 2nd 9700 also from Mexico has no issues.
i heard that the canada versions have brighter screens...

I've dealt with 4 different 9700's up to now. The screen on BOTH mexico made have a gap at the top resulting in disgusting amounts of dust and finger grease getting stuck there.
Both Canada made were perfect in that sense. Other then all, the rest was all the same.
Needless to say, my 9700 is Canada built. - 01-22-10, 03:54 PM #10
I've had a Mexican built 9700...and it was perfect. I have a Made In Canada one now...and it's solid also, aside from a couple of creaks in the bezel, but no biggie at all.
I don't see any real difference! - 01-22-10, 03:58 PM #11
My phone was made in mexico in october and it is PERFECT. So really, its not a clear, solid line between where it's made and how it turned out. People are just way too anal.
Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com - 01-22-10, 04:14 PM #12
Well realistically, I can't vote on which is better...
But for the record, mine was made in Mexico 11/01/09 & I haven't had any negative issues with it.
mine is mexico built and all i can say is, my trackpad makes a squeeking sound when trying to scroll down, bezel is loose/squeeks, screen goes black, and inability to receive any phone calls. Needless to say, it's a phone and that's why we have warranty.

Mine was made in Mexico in 11/2009 also and it's perfect so far. Pretty hard to answer the question unless you have one from both places to compare.

Only issue I have is squeaky silver frame, thus some light bleeding. No biggie for me. Mine is from Mexico. I got a new one for my GF and it is also from Mexico. That one is perfect. Also, I convinced friends to switch from iPhone to 9700. Both of them got 100% perfect brand new 9700. All of these three perfect are from Mexico with born date on December.

I've had both. First I had an mexico phone, and I notice the screen had a yellow color to it. (Yes, I had auto dim turned off) The only reason I noticed it was because my 8900 had a perfect bright white background color. (You can notice this on websites, or if you're in the options) I went to the T-mobile store, and noticed their store model was as bright as my 8900. I showed them my phone, and they could not figure out why mine had a yellowish dim color to it. They sent me to another store, and I found one made in Canada that had a bright white screen. Part of my case got recently cracked, and T-mobile sent me a replacement. Guess what, it was made in Mexico. I sent the phone back, and decided to order the case online. I did notice the touchpad on the Mexico phone was more lose than my Canada phone.

Where it's from has no bearing on the build quality.
There will be junk phones from canada and mexico. It's a crapshoot either way. If you got one of the good ones, be happy. If not, warranty.
Both of the 9700's in my house are from mexico. - 01-22-10, 10:42 PM #25
I'll second this remark! I bought my first 9700 a week ago, made 9/09 and from Mexico. Worked great at first than after about 4 days got a wobbly trackpad, store said I was being too picky (really... picky after I just spent almost $500 on a phone). So took it home, than yesterday phone started freezing up, and than today started randomly turning off so I took it in to get looked at and they gave me a new phone.
Now this phone has been booting up for almost 3 hours and it's stuck so off to the store again tomorrow to get a new 9700. If I have one more problem I may switch to a different model blackberry my husband has the Tour maybe I'll get what he has since he has not had a single problem with his.
I don't blame you for asking this question! -

Ampio Spins A Tale of Curing Blindness
Lower doses of Optina, Clift explained, only work in low-BMI patients. If you use a low dose of Optina in an obese patient, the drug doesn't work.
You'd think higher doses of Optina would work regardless of whether the patient had a low or high BMI. If Optina acted like most drugs, a higher dose would lead to greater benefit (up to a point). That's called a positive dose response.
But not true with Optina, according to Clift's interpretation of the study results. Higher doses of Optina only work in patients with a high BMI. If you give a higher dose of Optina to a skinny patient, the drug stops working.
If BMI is so crucial to the efficacy of Optina, why hasn't Ampio ever mentioned this correlation before? Previous disclosures about the Optina study don't talk about efficacy being dependent on patients' respective BMIs, including the press release issued by Ampio last March.
Clift claims Ampio kept all this BMI stuff top secret because of in-progress patent filings. If the company had made public the fact that Optina's efficacy is linked to patient weight, he adds, Big Pharma companies like Pfizer would have swooped in to steal the intellectual property supporting Optina.>To contact the writer of this article, click here: Adam Feuerstein. >To follow the writer on Twitter, go to http://twitter.com/adamfeuerstein. >To submit a news tip, send an email to: email@example.com.

I want to display an additional message in the onepage-checkout-block. This message should only appear for customers from germany. I can't figure out how I should get the country which is set in the billing address. I thought that it is in the session but there it isn't.
Has anybody a hint for me how I could achieve this? It is really urgent :(
Thanks in advance

[Closing Narration]
Alfred Hitchcock: That was a heartwarming little story, wasn't it? Obviously, heaven does protect the working girl. Now I have a confession (opens the small box containing the eyeball). This is not a glass eye. We were unable to find one, but we got the next best thing. I hope you don't mind. Good night.
[Opening Narration]
Alfred Hitchcock: (standing before a table, on which is a small box) Good evening. Tonight's narrative is about a private eye - a very private eye. (He opens the box to expose a glass eye) A glass eye is a very interesting object. For one thing, I've always thought a glass eye would be better than the real article: it never gets bloodshot, and being made of glass, it will certainly be easier to see through. This evening, due to one of those delightful coincidences, our story happens to be about a glass eye. It is entitled, "The Glass Eye." See, everything fits in.
1957 Emmy Winner: This episode garnered Robert Stevens an emmy for Best Direction (Half-Hour or Less).
